Be a detective in Yuanshin

Just like a pregnant woman will inevitably experience labor pains during childbirth, the turmoil caused by the change also makes Liyue gradually fall into a relatively chaotic state in a short period of time.
As the reformist faction headed by Li Shuo and Ningguang made great strides forward, Liyue's conservative faction was beaten and retreated steadily.
And the change of owner of the Tianquan star directly became the last straw that crushed the conservatives' psychological defense.They couldn't sit still any longer, and began to seek help from Liyue's immortal through various means.
Immortals with three eyes and five manifestations will not take the initiative to intervene in Liyue's internal struggles. Compared with fighting for power and profit with humans, they prefer to continue to live their lives of idle clouds and wild cranes.
Just because you don't take the initiative to intervene doesn't mean you won't intervene.
When the three of the Liyue Seven Stars and countless Liyue merchants pleaded for their orders, even if they were reluctant, the Three-Eyed Five-Show Immortal would have to intervene.
"The Liyue Immortals don't want to get involved in this fight, and they don't even intend to help anyone. They just hope that I can do enough. In their words, it's time for this farce to end."
Li Shuo said these words in a very frivolous tone, which shows how much he sneered at Immortal Liyue's statement at that time.
It's like when you see a fat tiger beating Nobita, on the surface you can choose to "help Nobita", "help Fat Tiger", "pretend not to see", "one slap can't make a sound", but the truth behind the three choices , In fact, they are all in Fat Tiger.
Similarly, if the three-eyed and five-manifested immortals really planned to remain neutral, they would not speak up.
To be a peacemaker at a time when the Conservative Party has been killed and defeated, has already made its position clear.
Ying: "And then?"
Li Shuo turned his head to look at Ningguang, Ningguang took a sip of tea in silence, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "Then...there is no more."
fluorescent:? ? ?
Paimon didn't even know what Ningguang was talking about. What did you mean there would be no more?
Li Shuo understood that Ningguang was talking about this kind of thing, and it was a bit embarrassing for her, so he took the initiative to explain to Ying and Paimeng: "Let me talk about it. Facing the reconciliation of the three-eyed and five-manifested immortal, the final result is... ..Everyone except me, all chose to let things go.
The vigorous reforms that had been happening before came to an abrupt end, and within a short period of less than a month, there was no more sound.
Whether it was the Liyue Seven Stars, the Liyue merchants, or the working people at the bottom, everyone took a step back in a tacit understanding.
The employees returned to their posts to work hard, the merchants continued the previously interrupted trade, and Liyue Qixing shook hands to make peace.In the end, with the intervention of the immortals, this matter came to a successful conclusion in their opinion.
After I fell out with everyone, I sat on the roof of Yujing Terrace alone for three days and three nights without eating or drinking. "
"The Emperor of the Rock..."
In the middle of Yingying's words, she fell silent. The matter is so big, might the Emperor Yan Wang not know?
Keeping silent is itself a way of expressing one's attitude.
Staring at the somewhat disappointed Ying, he couldn't help but defend Emperor Yan, saying, "Lord Yan also has his old man's difficulties.
Liyue has experienced countless upheavals since its establishment, but this time is completely different from the past.
Lord Yan said bluntly that even he could not see where this turmoil would lead Liyue.
Perhaps a brief pause is more conducive to everyone's in-depth understanding of this change and what kind of changes it has brought to Liyue.
It's just...unexpectedly, as the leader of this revolution, Li Shuo, who has always been infamous, gave up all the assets in his hands without hesitation, and became a detective with peace of mind. "
What Ningguang didn't say was that later, the conservatives united with most of the Liyue merchants to make a comeback, reorganized the Liyue market, and controlled Liyue's right to speak.
The name Li Shuo has also become a taboo, Liyue people are not allowed to mention it casually.
Although it was a big deal, because Li Shuo was basically behind the scenes all year round, and his assets were fully accepted by Ningguang, it didn't take many years for Li Shuo to gradually become indescribable from being stigmatized. , There is a tendency to develop in the direction of Cthulhu.
As for Tianshuxing and Yuhengxing after this incident, one felt that he was getting old, so he became a hands-off shopkeeper and idled all day; The position of Yuhengxing was passed on to her daughter, who is now Keqing.
Ying and Paimeng could not understand what to say to comfort Li Shuo at this moment.
Li Shuo looked at the expressions of Ying and Paimeng, and could only shake his head helplessly. He was really underestimated.
Do you really feel that you have been beaten to the point of losing your heart?
Are you kidding, he has to come forward to mediate from starting from nothing to being forced by Liyue Immortal, and he has experienced countless setbacks in the middle.
During the period, there were many near-deaths and survivals. For a while, the most talked about in the Hall of Rebirth was when will Li Shuo's business be done?
It's not that he is looking forward to Li Shuo's death, it's simply an occupational disease.
Even so, Li Shuo survived all the way.
How could he be completely defeated just because of one setback?
Li Shuo said calmly: "Don't get me wrong, I don't need comfort, let alone pity.
During the three days of meditation in Yujing Terrace, what I was thinking about was actually, why did it end like this?
Before this, I thought about failure, I also thought about success, and I even thought about dying without a whole body or without a disease, but I never thought that it would end up like this... a bit similar to the plot of the mechanical descendant. way to end.
But when I looked down from Yujing Terrace, whether it was Liyue Seven Stars, ordinary businessmen or Liyue people of various identities, they all took it for granted.
It seems that with the intervention of the immortals, the matter should end like this.
Gradually, I finally realized that I didn't notice that Liyue is a country with gods. God has long been the supreme and unquestionable symbol in their hearts.
People like me who don't take the attitude of immortals seriously at all are aliens in their eyes.So I apologized to Ningguang without hesitation, because I knew that as a native of Liyue, her choice was not wrong.
Just wanting to make Liyue take that step, the problem doesn't come from within Liyue, but from the immortals hanging over Liyue's head.
But wanting to change this is not something that can be solved by my efforts.
Of course, this is not the key point, the key point is... I finally realized that this was never my hometown, and I was always the only foreigner in Liyue.
For the sake of my hometown and my compatriots, I can throw my head, sprinkle my blood, and die without regret.But here comes the question, why should I make such a sacrifice for a strange country? "
........
Chapter 43: Contract
In the face of menacing changes, does the Emperor of the Rock really not even have the guts to take a gamble?
of course not.
It's just that the changes are too turbulent, and even the emperor needs a lot of time to digest, analyze, and deduce, so as to come up with a more stable and reasonable answer.
This is very reasonable, and Li Shuo can also understand that he is also a person who makes decisions before acting.
The reason why Li Shuo pulled away was not because he felt betrayed, nor because he resented the ignorance and injustice of the immortals.
How can there be so much fairness in the world, and how can there be so many like-minded people?
Get hurt, clean up the wound, and then set off.
Mo Chou has no confidant, no one in the world knows the king.
A true warrior never surrenders to the storm.
The sad thing is that the fighting spirit is still there, but the goal to fight for is gone.
It's like a traveler who came to another world and met a stranger who looks exactly like his parents by chance. At this time, he can't help but regard the stranger as his closest family member, and he is willing to treat him with all his heart.
It's just that with contact again and again, the traverser realizes that the strangers are not his parents, but just have the same appearance, and the feeling of emptiness makes him feel depressed and suffocating.
There has never been a businessman in power in China. Even when Qin Prime Minister Lu Buwei was in power, the identity of a businessman has long been regarded as a black history and thrown into the trash.
Similarly, there is no such thing as the supremacy of theocracy in China. Since the Zhou Dynasty began to learn from the experience of the demise of the Shang Dynasty, they respected ghosts and gods and stayed away. Since then, the monarchy has always been above the theocracy for 3000 years.
With a loud cry of "Prince General Hou Ning has a kind!", monarchy and sanctity completely parted ways.
In the end, "the emperor takes turns to do it, and he will come to my house next year", and the so-called "one line of ten thousand generations" has become a joke.
Liyue is not Huaxia after all.
Li Shuo is strong and free and easy.
So when he realized this, he gave all his assets to Ningguang without hesitation, "come" to Liyue naked, and then "leave" naked.
As Li Shuo himself said, the reason why he still stays in Liyue is not because he still has any feelings for this place, but because Liyue still has his few friends in Tivat continent.
Now Emperor Yan Wang is in the ceremony of inviting immortals, and he faked his death unexpectedly to get away. This is the answer he finally got from his constant deduction and analysis of that change, taking into account the story Li Shuo told.
But... some people choose to leave, and they won't come back easily.
When I left, I left the house completely and did not owe Liyue anything, so please don't kidnap me back, and continue to pay for Liyue regardless of rewards.
It's not stubbornness, let alone throwing a temper tantrum, it's just Li Shuo's most simple values as an ordinary person.
Li Shuo sighed helplessly when he saw that the atmosphere was a bit oppressive.
He didn't want to make the atmosphere like this, but he couldn't help it, people are empathetic.
If a person loses the ability to empathize, then he is no longer a human being, but just a selfish, self-interested, and immoral beast.
"Crack ♂ clap ♂ clap."
Li Shuo stretched out his hand and clapped his hands, breaking the dignified atmosphere: "Since we have finished what we need to say, then our Master Tianquan Xingguang should have something serious to discuss when he comes here this time? For example. ..”
"for example..."
Ningguang paused for a long time, and finally said: "For example... I want to ask Li for help."
"and then?"
Li Shuo did not refuse mercilessly. His current identity is a detective, and he uses people's money to eliminate disasters.
As long as Ningguang's request for help is still within the scope of business, as long as Ningguang can accept the sky-high price he offered, then it will be as usual.
After all, Li Shuo still wanted to find a wife to give birth to a football team for him, so he had to save more money for milk powder while he was young.
Ningguang didn't hesitate anymore, she said bluntly: "I want to ask Li to come back and help me reorganize the Liyue Seven Stars, and help us continue to complete the transformation that Liyue didn't complete at the beginning."
Li Shuo shook his head and said, "Sorry, this is not within the scope of my business."
Ningguang seemed to know that Li Shuo would answer like this, but she still couldn't help showing a disappointed expression on her face.
But soon, she hid her excitement and disappointment, and looked at Li Shuo with renewed enthusiasm: "Leave aside the identity of detectives, we are still businessmen, right?
If I want to make a deal and get Li back, what price will I have to pay? "
Price code?
Li Shuo looked at Ningguang's solemn expression, and said without hesitation: "My price tag is very simple, which makes me feel a sense of belonging.
In fact, not only Liyue, but any place including Daozu, as long as it can give me a sense of belonging, I will naturally stay and regard it as my hometown. "
This condition is both harsh and tolerant, both enthusiastic and indifferent.
Li Shuo's free and easy performance was vividly displayed at this moment.
Sever the past and start anew.
Ning Guang nodded, although he was talking about all kinds of things in his heart, but when he saw the calmness in Li Shuo's eyes, he felt happy for his freedom and ease.
Ning Guang stretched out her little finger like a little girl: "Okay! It's a deal!"
"puff"
Li Shuo looked at Ningguang's movements, and stretched out his little finger, dumbfounded: "Okay~~ It's a deal."
The hook is suspended for 100 years and cannot be changed...
In Liyue, the city of contracts, Liyue's Tianquan star signed the second most important contract in her life with the most simple contract method.
She hopes that one day in the future, she can sign the third and most important contract in her life with the same person.
After clearing up his mood, Ningguang regained his confidence and ability as a star of heaven, and repeated the old saying: "If you don't accept business outside the scope of Li's business, then you will never refuse business within the scope of business." Bar?"
Li Shuo knew that Ningguang was sure that "thieves never go empty-handed", so he first proposed an impossible deal, and then talked about a relatively reasonable deal after being rejected...
Tsk, why does this routine feel so familiar?
Oh, it turns out that I also use it a lot, so it's fine.
Li Shuo said angrily, "What kind of business is within the scope of business?"
Ning Guang: "Help me investigate the purpose of the Fools and the Abyss Cult!"
Forget about fools, why is there such a thing as the Abyss Cult?
It really depends on Liyue's turmoil, whether people or ghosts have to intervene?Aren't you afraid that Liyue's 700-year-old cake is too hard, and it will shatter all your teeth?
Li Shuo was speechless: "Are there traces of the Abyssal Sect near Liyue?"
Speaking of this, Ning Guang looked a little tired: "Not only the Abyss Cult, but even Lord Yan's seal has begun to wear to varying degrees. The current Liyue is not optimistic."
