Sumeru City,

Merchant in Elsingen,

With the recent report in his hand,

There is a cold color in the eyes,

"The Great Sage must have something wrong, and in the face of the delay of the god-making plan, he did not agree to open the Sumeru Dream Realm to harvest computing power."

"It should be that without me knowing, Wang Daoyi or Little Auspicious Grass King intervened."

"However, it can actually reverse the will of the great sage, this kind of thing, not like the things of the wise gods, it should be Wang Daoyi's intervention."

Limited by knowledge and intelligence,

Although Dotore deduced that the royal road was a pair of great sages Azar,

But he didn't expect that Wang Daoyi directly hypnotized the great sage and distorted the other party's main will.

"Someone."

The Doctor shouted,

Immediately, someone came in from outside: "My lord." ”

"Go and send the information from the other side of the desert."

"Yes." The visitor nodded, and went out again, and after a while, he walked in with a thick stack of documents, "My lord, our people have lost too much in the desert, and the information here is all collected from other chambers of commerce that travel to and from the desert, and it has not been screened. ”

The subtext is that the credibility of this information is not high.

Dotore nodded: "Okay, I see, you go down first, by the way, call Elsingen." ”

"Yes, sir." The subordinate nodded and left the room.

The doctor flipped through the information in his hand and began to read it carefully.

[The Chisha tribe is constantly expanding outward, caravans are traveling in the desert, and they can be received by the Chisha tribe branch in any oasis, large or small. 】

[The Chisha tribe hired caravans to directly deliver supplies to the Thousand Gully Sands, and the price rose by one percent. 】

[The Chisha tribe has suspended the acquisition of building materials, and it is suspected that a large-scale project has been completed. 】

【Chisha Tribe. 】

Flipping through the information in hand,

Dotorre's mind kept thinking,

Finally, in a flash of inspiration,

"With the reserve Mora of the Northland Bank, the development of the Chisha tribe is about to enter a high-speed period, and at the same time, Wang Daoyi is about to take that step."

Dotore's eyes flashed: "It seems that I have to plan ahead, don't be like Pantarone, who will be overshadowed by Wang Daoyi." ”

Thinking,

Elsingen walked in through the door: "My lord, are you looking for me?" ”

Dortore stopped thinking and looked at Elchingen: "How did you prepare the materials that you were asked to collect before?" ”

Hearing the doctor's question, Elsingen didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly replied: "I got the Mora you brought before, we have made a large-scale premium acquisition, and we have already collected 80% of the materials, and it is expected that the collection of all materials will be completed in five days." ”

"80%." Dotore felt that it was still a little slow, thought for a while, and then said, "Another premium, speed up the collection, three days, I will give you three days at the end, you must complete the collection of materials." ”

Dortore had to hurry,

Originally, in his plan, these materials should have been provided by the Akademiya,

However, the Great Sage is now under the control of Wang Daoyi, and although Wang Daoyi did not directly stop the god-making plan, he has also reduced a large amount of material supplies.

Therefore, now that Dotore wants to continue to complete his god-making experiments, he can only call on the materials of the Fatui,

This is also the reason why he would cooperate with Wang Daoyi to empty the inventory of Northland Bank before.

Of course, the Doctor didn't care what would happen to the Fatui in Sumeru after the funds were drained, he only cared about his experiments.

Elsingen immediately nodded: "Don't worry, Doctor, I'll do it." ”

Elsingen is the Doctor's loyal licking dog, largely headless and obedient to the Doctor's orders.

Wait until Elsingen leaves,

Only then did Torre put down the intelligence information in his hand,

An inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth,

"It's a little scary that the little guy has grown to such a point."

Speaking of fear, there was no fear in Dotore's eyes, but it was very dangerous.

At this moment, he finally treated Wang Daoyi as an equal opponent.

The flowers bloom at two ends, one on each branch.

After returning to Liyue,

Ying and Xingqiu inquired about the passage of the Strata Chasm,

Finally, Paimon embarks on a new path.

Walking through the dark tunnels of the Chasm,

Paimon was a little scared,

"Ying, it's so dark here."

Reaching out to grab Paimon, Ying comforted, "Paimon hold on to me, I'll be at the exit soon." ”

"But isn't this a business? How could it be so dark. Paimon didn't understand.

Ying shook her head, "Xingqiu said, because of the turmoil in Liyue before, many caravans have stopped moving, and the Akademiya in Sumeru doesn't seem to care about commerce, so the passage here will not be maintained, so it will become like this." ”

The two leaned on each other, walking through the dark passage,

After dozens of steps, a ray of light appeared, and after a few quick steps, the eyes suddenly opened up.

Lush green fills the eyes,

"Here. Is it Sumeru? ”

Looking at the green in front of her, Ying felt that the air was fresh.

Paimon also flew out from behind Ying, dancing among the flowers and plants.

"Wow, Ying, the scenery here is really nice." Paimon said happily.

Ying also nodded, and the brow that had been furrowed in the dark tunnel also relaxed: "Well, the scenery is completely different from other countries." ”

As she spoke, Ying looked around for a week: "Let's go on the road first, see if we can find people or villages, ask for directions or buy a map." ”

Paimon flew back from the flowers not far away and nodded beside Ying, "Since we have arrived in Sumeru, our next goal is to go to Sumeru City and find a way to meet the Little Auspicious Grass King." ”

"Speaking of the Little Auspicious Grass King, although we didn't hear much about it before, she doesn't quite look like the god who took your brother back then..."

Listening to Paimon's words, Ying's expression was a little strange,

In fact, she had already confirmed that the little girl she had seen before, Nahida, was the god of grass.

Still, Paimon's words made her nod, "I think so too." ”

Ying wondered what Paimon's expression would be when he found out that Nahida was the god of grass.

Paimon looked around for a moment, then saw a tall rock not far away, and on top of it, there was a statue of the Seven Heavens.

"Ying, you wait, I'll go to a high place to see if there are any roads or road signs."

Ying nodded: "Okay, you be careful." ”

"Don't worry." Paimon patted his chest and flew to the statue of the Seven Heavens high up.

Condescendingly looked down, and soon found a trade road,

and a pedestrian walking on the road.

Flying back to Ying's side, Paimon happily said, "Ying, there's a road over there, and I saw pedestrians, let's go over." ”

Led by Paimon, Ying stepped onto the path and soon saw the pedestrian Paimon had said.

"Hello—we are foreign travelers and would like to ask you for directions!"

Paimon greeted the passerby from a distance, but they didn't respond.

"Didn't you hear... Hey—pedestrians in front, excuse me, can I ask you for directions?"

Paimon shouted louder again, and flew towards the pedestrians not far away.

Pedestrian:.

The pedestrian glanced at Ying and Paimon, but walked away quickly.

Ying reached out and grabbed Paimon, who wanted to continue asking, with a hint of thought in her eyes.

"This person's clothes are like the Sumeru scholars I saw in Inazuma before, and she should also be a Sumeru scholar." Ying said.

Paimon was a little unhappy, and the Void stomped his feet and pouted, "What the hell is going on?" She heard us calling her, but she ignored us. ”

"Maybe there's something important that doesn't have time for us." Ying guessed, then smiled, "Haha, Paimon don't be angry, she won't pay attention to us, but as long as we follow her from a distance, we should be able to get to a populated place." ”

"Oh, you're right, let's follow up!" Paimon nodded hurriedly.

Ying and Paimon followed the pedestrians,

Walking along the path, they found that the surrounding area seemed to be getting more and more remote, and there was no village in their imagination at all.

Eventually, Ying and Paimon see pedestrians walk into a waterfall and disappear in front of them.

"Hey, she's gone to the waterfall and she's gone, so let's go over and have a look." Paimon said hurriedly.

Ying frowned, but she didn't hesitate to agree to Paimon's proposal and ran to the place where the pedestrian disappeared.

A small cave appeared in front of the two of them,

Glancing at Paimon, Ying protected Paimon behind him, and the two walked into the cave.

Entering the cave, the two found that this was not an entrance, just an ordinary cave with some traces of man-made and seemed to be a secluded residence.

"I thought this cave would be the entrance to the village or something, but I guessed wrong."

Paimon flew out from behind Ying, then looked around, and soon spotted the pedestrian just now, "She sat down over there, could she live here?"

Ying nodded: "This should be her residence, we seem to have broken into someone else's house." ”

Paimon was also a little embarrassed for a moment, scratched his head, and then asked, "What do we do now, should we try to ask her for directions again?"

Ying was also a little embarrassed, but still nodded: "Try to communicate with her."

"Well, okay. It was not easy to meet a pedestrian, even if she didn't welcome us, as long as we could convince her to give us directions. ”

Paimon agrees with Ying's words.

The two of them went to the inside of the cave,

As soon as they took a few steps, a strange fragrance appeared on the tip of their noses.

Paimon sniffed, his eyes lit up.

Paimon was a little surprised that pedestrians living in such a humble place could use such a fragrant fragrance: "Hmm... It's so fresh. ”

Then he looked around the cave and saw an incense burner, placed next to the meditating pedestrian.

"I guess it came from that incense burner. Even though I live in such a humble place, it seems that it is a good life to be able to bathe in the fragrance and meditate. ”

Paimon said, then turned around and saw Ying's face pale,

"What's wrong with you? Suddenly his face became so ugly. Paimon hurriedly flew to Ying's side and said in concern.

Ying stretched out her hand to support her forehead: "This fragrance..."

"What, does the scent make you feel uncomfortable? But why don't I feel anything..."Paimon was a little helpless, she didn't know what to do anymore.

"I have to get out of here!" Ying shook her head vigorously, telling herself inwardly, but before she could take a step, her already misty consciousness fell into darkness.

Paimon flew to Ying's side, only to see Ying shake slightly, and the whole person fell.

"Ying, Ying, what's wrong with you?" A look of horror appeared in Paimon's eyes, and she shouted loudly.

Paimon's voice was too loud, and the cave master, who had been meditating on the side, opened his eyes,

When she saw Ying fall to the ground, she immediately twisted on the incense burner beside her, and the fragrance escaping from the incense burner began to stop.

"It should be allergic to Lingphenol." It was the cave owner who walked up to Ying's side and stretched out his hand to pull Ying, "Carry her outside, away from the range of Lingphenol incense." ”

Paimon followed the cave master and pulled Ying hard, pulling her out of the cave.

"What's wrong with her, it's going to be fine, woo woo, it's all my fault, it's all my fault."

Paimon cried out with a hint of nasality.

The cave owner just looked at Paimon, then shook his head, "I've already sent a signal, the ranger will come over soon, and Tighnari will cure her then." ”

After saying that, he ignored the crying Paimon and went back to the cave on his own.

Paimon stood by Ying's side helplessly, tears streaming down his eyes.

——

Sumeru Huachengguo

"Why are you free to come to me? Could it be that it is for Sumeru to cherish the ingredients? ”

Tighnari looked at the person in front of him, a little helpless.

"That's not the case, this time I'm waiting for someone." Wang Daoyi said.

"Wait for someone?" Tighnari wondered, "Did you ask someone to come and turn the castle into a city?" I said, the appointment should also go to Sumeru City, make an appointment with the city, is there some. Not very suitable. ”

In Tighnari's view, Huacheng is not a good place to make a date.

Wang Daoyi knew that Tighnari had misunderstood, smiled, and said, "Haha, it's not the kind of appointment you think, it's just that I know someone will come over and wait here." ”

"Okay, so is there anything you want me to help with?" In the end, he regarded Wang Daoyi as a friend, Tighnari still did not directly abandon Wang Daoyi, but asked.

Shaking his head, with a hint of a smile in his eyes, Wang Dao opened his mouth and said, "No, no, you and Collei can get busy, I'll just wait here." ”

As he spoke, he saw a little girl running from not far away, it was Collet.

"Master Tighnari, I just received a message for help, it's from Hypatia."

Tighnari's expression changed, Hypatia, that's a scholar who often has problems,

After thinking about it, he looked at Wang Daoyi: "Since that's the case, then I won't entertain you, I have to go to Hypatia's side to see what happened." ”

"Go, go, I'll be here myself." Wang Daoyi said with a smile.

Bidding farewell to Wang Daoyi, Tighnari hurried away with Collei in tow.

And Wang Daoyi stayed where he was, with a smile in his eyes,

Wang Daoyi naturally knew what was going on, he was just lazy to move, anyway, it would be the same when Tighnari and Collei brought Ying back.

With a wave of his hand, a rock platform rises.

Wang Daoyi patted his ass and half-lay down.

"Sure enough, it's more comfortable to lie down~"

Time passes little by little,

Until the sun goes down,

Wang Daoyi heard a familiar voice from a distance.

"What to do, what to do, is she going to die, woo woo woo~"

"Enough, don't cry, she's just allergic to Lingphenol, it's not a big deal, it's fine!"

Paimon's cries, and Tighnari's slightly broken voice came from afar.

"Woo woo woo ~ "

Paimon cried all the way and followed Tighnari to the castle,

Ying, on the other hand, was carried back by Tighnari and Collei.

"Woo woo~" Tighnari's words obviously didn't soothe Paimon's emotional breakdown, Paimon kept crying until she saw a familiar figure not far away who seemed to be snickering.

Take a closer look, isn't it the king's road!

"Wow~~"

Paimon howls loudly, as if the aggrieved child has found a leaning back.

rushed to Wang Daoyi, who was laughing,

"Daoyi, Ying has an accident, you save Ying!"

The little guy grabbed Wang Daoyi's hand tightly and shouted to Wang Daoyi in an almost pleading tone,

Paimon still believes in Wang Daoyi more than the strange Tighnari.

Reaching out to hug the crying Paimon, he patted the little guy on the back, and soothed, "Don't worry, since Tighnari said it's okay, then it's okay, he's the best forest ranger in Sumeru." ”

"Really?" Paimon snorted, asking with some hesitation.

Wang Dao nodded: "Of course, don't worry, Ying is not so fragile." ”

On the other side,

Tighnari and Collei set up the glow on the stretcher,

only then walked to Wang Daoyi's side,

"These two are the friends you're waiting for? It's so much. It's noisy. ”

Tighnari's large ears gave him a keen sense of hearing, but they also made him very disliked noise.

Paimon's cries along the way were the scariest noise.

Paimon, in particular, cried and didn't listen to his explanation at all, and kept shouting, "What to do, is she going to die!" ”

Tighnari was a bit overwhelmed.

"Hah, Paimon is like that, she's just worried about Ying, because the two of them are the best buddies." Wang Daoyi said with a smile, and then gave an example, "It's like. If something happens to Collei, Tighnari will be very worried. ”

Tighnari was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Collei who was still taking care of Ying from a distance, and shook his head slightly: "I won't let Collei have an accident!" ”

In Tighnari's eyes, Collei was not only his disciple, but also his family.

And protecting the family is also a very important thing in Tighnari's philosophy.

So he won't let Collei have an accident.

Hearing Tighnari's words, Wang Dao smiled and did not continue the topic,

"How long will it take for Ying to wake up?"

"Ying? Is this patient's name? She has inhaled Hypatia's high-grade Lingphenol incense, and her own sensitivity to Lingphenol incense is very high, I suspect that her consciousness is already connected to the World Tree, so, if you say less than three or five days, if you say more, it may take more than seven days. ”

"After so long, I don't have much time to wait here."

Wang Daoyi raised his eyebrows, then touched Paimon's little head,

"Paimon, when Ying wakes up, help me tell Ying that she's welcome to Sumeru."

"As for me, I'll go to Sumeru City and wait for you first."

Paimon's eyes widened, "Daoyi, aren't you accompanying Ying?" ”

"Ha, I just came to see you, let's go, bye."

In Paimon's angry gaze, Wang Daoyi opened the leyline passage and left.

"Woo woo, damn it, Dao Yi actually left like this, when Ying wakes up, I must say bad things about you, say a lot!"
