Chapter 116: I Want Revenge!
Jiang Bai didn't think much about it, just as they were chatting.
After all, Albedo knows about his outsiders, and he himself should provide some secrets that will not be known to outsiders, right?
As the saying goes, sharing secrets helps bring you closer.
They were just strangers and didn't have much to rely on. It is also necessary to have some such "secrets" to strengthen the sense of trust in each other.
The two walked side by side in the snow, their boots crunching on the snow.
"In that case, there will be a lot of problems in living in the human race, right?"
"It's fine. It's just that there is no one who can provide me with experience and reference, so I can only grope my way forward. ”
Albedo spoke lightly.
But only he knows all the confusion that a [special] thing will encounter in human society.
This confusion does not come from life, but from the loneliness of the only one in the world.
When he was sick, he couldn't tell if he was simply sick or if his body was affected by something, and whether it would bring any danger.
When he is in a low mood, he can't tell if he is in a bad mood or if there is an abnormality in one of the modules of his body, causing him to show a bad mood for early warning.
Just as a person can't understand the life of Slim, the people around him can't use him as a reference, because the nature of each other's lives is different, and he can only study what the various abnormalities in his body represent.
"Do you have any relatives?"
"Yes. My Master, who created me, is my mother to me. And Aunt Alice, who brought me to Mondstadt to settle down, and her daughter Klee, who are all my relatives. ”
"That's okay, it's not too lonely to have relatives with you."
"What about you? What does it feel like to wake up from a long sleep and lose your memory? "Because he wasn't really human, Albedo was very keen to study humans as creatures.
Although the man in front of him did not belong to Teyvat, he was also human.
"I don't feel anything." Jiang Bai spread his hands.
"I don't care about the past, and I don't have any obsession to get back my memory, my life is very good now, and when I have nothing to do, I go to the street with the hall owner, run here and there to see, and work hard when I work......
"I'm curious about why I faked my death and ended up in Liyue, but that's just curiosity, not necessarily knowing."
Albedo nodded, "You're in a good state of mind. Life is all about looking forward, and no matter what happened in the past, the present is what matters. ”
"Turn this corner ahead and you'll be where I said you are."
"Oh?"
Jiang Bai was very curious about what place and what could allow him to control the wind element.
Rounding a bend, a dilapidated ruin appeared in front of Jiang Bai.
The ruins were similar to those he had seen along the way, with only half of the huge stone pillars left with the same patterns carved into them, and the walls had collapsed, leaving only the ruins of the walls.
The road paved with huge stones was crumbling, but it still stretched from under your feet to the ruins.
The ruins were no longer distinguishable from their original appearance, and all that remained was a huge ring supported by stone pillars.
The ring stretched out a path to the sky, and at what time it was supposed to connect to the other buildings built on the hill, but the buildings he had once connected had long since collapsed, and at the end of the road there was only a huge statue of a god standing silently.
The idol emitted a pure blue light, because the distance was a little far, Jiang Bai couldn't see the specific image clearly, but he could tell that this was not the idol of the rock god.
"Do you see the Statue of the Seven Heavens?"
"See, what's wrong?"
"We're going right there. Come with me, there's a way up there. ”
As he walked, Albedo explained to Jiang Bai.
"The Statue of the Seven Heavens has magical powers, it refers to the land ruled by the gods, and it also has the effect of stabilizing the leylines. My master once told me that the idol has a special power related to the elements corresponding to the gods, and I thought that maybe you can master the corresponding elemental power through the idols......"
Albedo wasn't sure if the idea would come to fruition, as it was just a guess.
"This is the idol of the god of wind, right?"
Jiang Bai knew that the Snow Mountains belonged to Mondstadt's territory, and that Mondstadt's deity was Barbatos, the god of wind.
"Yes." Albedo nodded.
This is common sense for Teyvat, but not necessarily for outsiders.
Jiang Bai may have seen the statue of the god of wind for the first time.
"And what is this ruin?"
"This is a relic left by the ancient kingdom a long time ago, and it has been a long time ago, and we call this place the [Snow Burial Capital, Old Palace]."
Jiang Bai walked to a large stone pillar and reached out to sweep away the snow above, revealing the mottled patterns below.
"Along the way, many abandoned buildings I have seen have this kind of pattern, is this pattern unique to this ancient country?"
Jiang Bai was a little concerned about this, because he had told Zhong Li about this pattern without shame about his conjecture.
"Probably not, such patterns can be found on many ancient ruins, not only snow-capped mountains."
"Alas, I really guessed wrong......" Jiang Bai was a little frustrated, and at the same time felt that his face was a little panicked.
Albedo's statement undoubtedly confirmed his erroneous idea, this pattern did not represent the Demon God people who were suppressed by the Lonely Cloud Pavilion at all.
In other words, all his guesses about Zhongli were wrong!
What is Zhongli's expression like?
Zhongli was silent and did not speak.
Jiang Bai felt that Mr. Zhongli must have been speechless when he heard his statement at that time, so speechless that he didn't know what to say.
Even if he is as thick-skinned as him, he can't bear it at the moment.
"Guess wrong? Guessed something wrong? Albedo was curious.
"I've seen some ruins on several islands in the Lone Cloud Pavilion, and those ruins are all like this, I thought those ruins came from the Demon God who was suppressed by the Lone Cloud Pavilion, but now I think about it, it's not like that at all......
Jiang Bai rubbed his face and let the temperature on his face cool down.
At that time, he still felt that he was very smart, and he saw through things that no one else could see...... Now that I think about it, Mr. Zhongli must know the truth, just watch him perform quietly......
Damn!
He must find out Zhongli's true identity and then say it in front of him to avenge this!
Albedo laughed, "You get less information, so it's normal to guess wrong." As far as I know, scholars have different theories about these ancient ruins scattered throughout Teyvat, and there is no unified theory. ”
"If you want to explore the mysteries of the unknown, you have to make bold guesses, and the truth is often hidden in these seemingly bold guesses."
