Everyone has their own hobbies, and as long as other people's hobbies do not violate public order and good customs, they should not be denied or slandered.

As a young man in Liyue, Xingqiu's three views are normal and correct.

However, even if he was well-informed, he still had some difficulty when he saw a gale magistrate waiting for him in front of his tent, just to buy a card.

The top inspector general of a country waits at your doorstep just to buy a limited SSR in your hand, which is probably this kind of impact.

"Ahem, Your Excellency Cyno, if you like it, I'll just give it to you, you don't have to spend money to buy it."

Xingqiu's first reaction was shock, and his second reaction was that this was a good opportunity to get closer to each other.

"No, no, you have to pay for it, and I can't take this card if it doesn't." Cyno rejected Xingqiu's kindness.

Xingqiu: "Huh? ”

If you want cards, come to me and buy them,

Now I'm giving it to you, and you don't want it anymore?

It seemed that seeing the incomprehension of the trip, Cyno had a cold face: "I am the Chronicle of the Great Wind, and the limited card is too precious." ”

If it's an ordinary card, then the players will give each other a few cards, and it's naturally fine.

But the limited card is too precious, and Cyno's identity is too special.

It's safer to buy than to give away.

Xingqiu suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten that he was from the Liyue Chamber of Commerce, and Cyno was the Grand Wind Judge of the Akademiya.

He gave away a valuable card for no reason, and if it was known, there might be some rumors.

Arching his hand at Cyno, Xingqiu nodded and said, "I was careless, Your Excellency Cyno's request, I agreed, and when the award is over, I will sell the card to Your Excellency." ”

"Okay, the price won't disappoint you, then I'll go first, you have a good rest." Getting the answer he wanted, the corners of Cyno's mouth curled, and he turned to leave.

Xingqiu stood in front of the tent, looked at the back of Cyno leaving, didn't say anything for a long time, and finally smiled slightly: "The Great Wind Chronicler who likes to play cards...... It seems that the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce can sponsor several Seven Saints Summoning Card Tournaments in Sumeru. ”

Then he smiled and went into the tent.

The next day,

The camp woke up to the sound of explosions, and the breakfast was fish porridge prepared for everyone by the Chisha soldiers.

It is said that Master Nicholred provided the fish for this breakfast.

"Wow, the fish porridge is so delicious~!"

Klee held her small bowl and drank the porridge beautifully, her little face full of satisfaction.

She woke up early this morning,

Then he went to Brother Nicholred,

Then let Nicholred take her to the river where she was playing yesterday, and fry the fish for a while.

After the canal was opened, no fishing was carried out in the red sand, and usually only xenomorph dragon lizards would enter the river to hunt.

So the fish in the canal are considerable.

Under Klee's bouncing bombs, it has become everyone's breakfast.

"Klee is awesome!" Paimon eats people with a short mouth and compliments Klee.

The others complimented them, though they still didn't understand Mondstadt's practice of letting a little girl carry a lot of bombs.

But the fish is delicious, so Klee can be complimented.

At the messenger's table, Albedo looked at Klee who was drinking porridge over there, and his eyes were very soft.

Klee went to fry fish today, knowing that finding Nicholred Guardianship was a good thing to do.

Albedo's side, Alhaitham put down the bowl in his hand and looked at Navillette: "Mr. Navellet, please don't say goodbye a second time." ”

Navillette had regained her composure: "I'm sorry, it's my fault, and I'll repay the little auspicious grass king later." ”

"That's good, everyone, after breakfast, the Lord of the Red Sand will send us back to Sumeru City, and then complete the award ceremony, this celebration will be over, the Akademiya will prepare some gifts for everyone, I hope you don't dislike it then."

Alhaitham looked at the crowd.

Everyone said that the referee Alhaitham was polite.

After a while, when everyone had finished eating, they gathered at the gate of the camp,

The familiar leyline channels resurfaced.

Everyone entered the leyline passage with ease and returned to Sumeru City.

……

Sumeru City, Celebration Platform,

The organizers who stayed here have made all the preparations,

Streamers with salutes, sweets and refreshments,

There are also prizes for the champions, as well as rewards for the players' participation.

Under the watchful eye, Xingqiu stepped onto the stage.

"Thank you, Lord Little Auspicious Grass King, and thank you to the Akademiya for giving me this opportunity.

As a Liyue native, I am honored to be part of such an important celebration at the Sumeru Akademiya.

can win this championship, more is luck,

Whether it's Mr. Cyno, or Lord Carveh, or Miss Layla, and Faruzan are all better people than me,

Ying, the Ito Brothers, Uncle Scorpion, Mondstadt, and Liyue all presented wonderful competitions.

Of course, there's little Klee, who, as the winner of the first point, is also the best,

……

Therefore, after seeing the open atmosphere of the Sumeru Akademiya, we decided to increase our investment in Sumeru, deepen cooperation with Sumeru, and strive for more win-win results.

I also hope that everyone in Sumeru can support more. ”

After Xingqiu came to power as the winner,

did not show arrogance, but modestly praised everyone,

Then he used a lot of space to praise Sumeru's open academic atmosphere and stable social environment.

Finally, I will tell you that the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is going to officially enter Sumeru for investment and cooperation.

One set down, so that the name of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce was remembered by everyone.

A very successful advertisement.

However, there are also some local chambers of commerce that sense the smell of wolves.

Alhaitham knew this in his heart.

However, he didn't mean to interrupt Xingqiu's speech at all,

There is external oppression, and only then can there be progress.

The Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is better than the Fatui before to do this external pressure.

As the Xingqiu champion finished speaking, the people of Sumeru and the tourists gave warm applause.

Although many people heard that Xingqiu was advertising, he spoke beautifully.

Xingqiu praised everyone, and everyone can't repay it.

You see that the one named Arataki Itto, who was praised by Xingqiu in front of so many people, was almost silly laughing.

He applauded the hardest.

After Xingqiu finished speaking, Alhaitham stepped forward, glanced at Kaveh, and continued: "After completing the championship award, the event should have ended, but Kaveh Scholar still has some things to inform, so let's leave it to Kaveh Scholar next." ”

In front of the public, Alhaitham did not embarrass Kaveh, and simply handed over the right to speak to Kaveh.

Kaveh took a few deep breaths and stepped onto the high platform, facing the audience.

"Everyone, I guess you know about Thatchein's property handed over to me."

Someone in the audience below immediately responded: "Are the Kaveh scholars going to invite us to drink?" ”

As soon as the voice came out, the crowd erupted in laughter.

Listening to the laughter, Kaveh's mood improved.

"No, I'm not going to invite you to drink, I've decided to do something more meaningful with the money.

Thatch has hurt many desert people due to his years of experimentation in the desert, and I decided to divide my property into two, one part to compensate for the damage of the desert people, and the other part to raise and raise the children of Sumeru. ”

As he spoke, Kaveh looked at the audience that was gradually quieting, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "That's right, just like the incredible conjecture in your heart, I donated all of Thatchine's property." ”

With Kaveh's announcement of the renunciation of his property, there was silence in the audience.

After a few breaths, the crowd erupted in chatter.

How much property Thatchine had, which no one knows,

But everyone knows that under the care of the Akademiya, Thatchein's fortune is very staggering.

Kaveh actually announced in front of the public that he would donate his property, which was naturally serious.

This is equivalent to a person winning a billion lottery tickets and then donating all the money.

Some people feel that Kaveh is stupid, some people feel that Kaveh is saintly,

But everyone admired his decisiveness.

After Kaveh finished saying the news of the donation of his property, he went straight off the stage.

Alhaitham took the stage again: "Alright, now I announce that this Akademiya Celebration Contest is officially over. ”

After the brief announcement, Alhaitham stepped off the stage and saw Kaveh backstage.

"You must be very proud right now."

Kaveh was stunned for a moment and looked at Alhaithham: "What? Do you think I'm doing something wrong? ”

"Right and wrong are not so simple, I can't judge you right or wrong, the important thing is that you have given up another opportunity to change your situation." Alhaitham said calmly.

"Huh." Kaveh raised his head arrogantly, if there was no olive branch from Xingqiu, Alhaithham's words would indeed hit him,

But now, he, Kaveh, the first external employee of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, has changed his own situation, do you understand!

"I'm going to have a drink today, so let's all come along." Kaveh ignored Alhaitham and shouted to his friends.

Paimon was the first to respond: "You're in for a treat?" But didn't you donate all your money? Do you still have money? ”

Kaveh nodded proudly and stretched out his hand to take out a money ticket: "Of course, although there is not much property, it is still enough to invite everyone to have a meal, and there is still some left to improve your life." ”

on the edge,

Alhaitham glanced at the money ticket in Kaveh's hand, "It looks like you've found a new job." ”

After being an acting sage for so long, Alhaitham still knows the bill of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.

"Hmph." Carveh looked up arrogantly again and looked at Alhaithham, "How about it, do you want to come along?" ”

"No, I have something." Alhaitham waved his hand and left alone.

"What, you just can't see me." Kaveh said huffingly, then turned to look at Ying and Paimon, as well as the others, "Everyone, I'm in for a treat, let's go have a big dinner." ”

The crowd responded.

——

Jingshan Palace,

Ah Hat walked in slowly,

I saw Wang Daoyi inspecting the World Tree and Nahida swinging.

"I said, two adults, is there nothing else to do?"

Ah Hao couldn't help but complain, every time he came over, the two of them were almost in this state.

Retracting his gaze from the World Tree, Wang Daoyi looked at Ah Hat: "It is the responsibility of Sumeru's ruling to ensure the operation of the World Tree, and this cannot be shirked. ”

Then a smile appeared in his eyes: "How is it, how do you feel about being suppressed by a mortal." ”

Ah Hat was forced down from the sky by Layla, and Wang Daoyi watched the whole process, which was very exciting.

The corners of his mouth twitched, and Ah Hao said indignantly: "If it weren't for that rain for no reason, I would have flown back with the crown a long time ago, and it would not have been their turn to fight at all." ”

When the hat complains,

The gates of the Palace of Pure Kindness were opened again,

Navillette walked in slowly,

"I'm so sorry you lost your title."

Navillette seemed to be serious and apologized to Ah Hao.

Ah Hat looked at Naville with a froze expression.

What do you mean?

That rain was from this messenger of Fontaine?

Without waiting for Hat to continue asking, Nahida jumped off the swing,

"It seems that Lord Navillette has something to do, Ah Hat, let's go, let's go and bring back all the academic materials of Thatchin first." Nahida spoke.

Ah Hat pouted: "Isn't someone already going?" Why do you want me to go? ”

"Alhaithham's habits, it is likely that he will ignore them after reading them, although those materials record bad experiments, but after all, they are knowledge and need to be protected." Nahida looked at Ah Hat silently.

Eventually, Hat retreated, unable to stand Nahida's calm gaze.

That kind of look is like a teacher catching you who made a mistake.

Calm, but oppressive.

Nahida left with her hat.

"It doesn't look like you've had a good meeting." Wang Dao waved his hand, and the rock elements converged and turned into two chairs, "Please take a seat." ”

Navillette sat down calmly.

"Apep is a dragon from the old days, and his thoughts are very different from the newborn dragons, so you don't have to pay too much attention to his words."

"I know, but some of the things he said make sense, and I've been with humans for a long time, and I've gradually forgotten who I was."

The appearance here is not about the appearance, but about the heart.

The dust song pot appeared, Wang Daoyi took out a set of tea sets, then opened a tea box, and twisted out a few tea leaves in distress.

"The treasures I took from the emperor, I usually don't want to drink them." Wang Daoyi said to Navillette, "Come on some water." ”

Navillette's expression remained unchanged, and wisps of clear water appeared in the teapot, well, still boiling water.

"Life is like tea, the old has the taste of the old, the new has the taste of the new, although you and Apepe are the same kind, but in fact they are very different.

As for what you said about forgetting yourself as you were, I can't argue with that.

But whether it's human beings, elemental beings, or our gods, it's all growing.

You are just being influenced by the external environment and absorbing the knowledge of the outside world normally. ”

As he spoke, Wang Dao skillfully made a cup of tea for Navelette.

"Taste it, besides the emperor, you are the second person to let me make tea."

Navillette glanced at Wang Daoyi, reached out to pick up the teacup, and took a sip: "Good tea." ”

"Poof, what's the evaluation, don't care at all, you're still suitable for coffee." Wang Daoyi smiled dumbly, and then said, "What do you want to know, I'll try to tell you." ”

Navillette opened her mouth to speak, but suddenly she didn't know what to ask.

Ask the identity of the dragon? The identity is already obvious, a dragon left over from the original war.

Q: The purpose of the dragon? What can you do if you ask? If the other party wants to turn against the sky, can he still follow?

Identity and purpose are not asked, what else is there to ask?

In the end, Navillette shook her head and put down the teacup in her hand: "It's a waste of your good tea, I don't have any doubts." ”

Wang Dao nodded, didn't care, and picked up the teacup: "Since that's the case, please feel free." ”

Serve tea and send off guests.

Navillette got up and left.

——

At the entrance of the Sumeru Hotel,

Paimon patted his stomach, "Ah, it's so full." ”

Then he turned to look at Ying, only to find that Ying seemed to have something on his mind.

"What's wrong, Ying, what are you thinking?" Paimon asked.

Ying frowned slightly: "Did we forget something?" ”

Paimon: "Huh? ”

"Ah, Traveler, Paimon, you're here, I've finally found you." A mercenary dressed as a regiment of thirty walked over.

"Huh?" Paimon turned to look at him, "Uh-oh, you're the one who captured the Treasure Hoarders. ”

The mercenary captain nodded: "Yes, the Treasure Hoarders you handed over to us last time have already investigated clearly,

They were just ordinary Treasure Hoarders, who came to Sumeru because they couldn't get along in Liyue.

As for that Siwani, it was indeed the son of Sachiin.

Thatchine was alienated from his family because of his obsession with research, Sivani was dissatisfied with his father from an early age, and Thatchine decided to give the property to someone who inherited his scholarship.

Siwani's grievances continued to build before he erupted and prepared to kidnap Thatchin and take possession of his property.

However, now that the case is closed, thank you for helping us catch him. ”

The mercenary captain told Sivani the story and thanked her again before leaving.

Looking at the figure of the mercenary captain leaving, Ying's eyes lit up: "Paimon, let's go to Aru Village." ”

Paimon: "Huh? Why? ”

Ying didn't answer, and rushed to the leyline anchor with Paimon.

Ying's heart gradually understood,

Thatch alienated his family by going to the desert to do research,

Thatch's academic needs were inherited, so he planned the crown and the event.

Thatch handed over his property to the Akademiya for management, but what about his academic achievements?

In Thatchein's eyes, Siwani was not qualified to inherit his scholarship.

Then, Saitchin's academic achievements and materials are probably in the desert.

In the desert a few decades ago, only Aru Village was probably safe enough to store his information.

……

Use the leyline anchor point to return to Aaru Village,

didn't have time to say hello to acquaintances,

Ying was outside a warehouse and saw Alhaitham reading.

"Ah, Alhaithham, you guy, why are you here?" Paimon is confused.

Alhaitham closed the book: "Aren't you here too?" ”

Ying's expression was complicated: "These are the academic achievements left by Thatchine?" ”

Alhaitham nodded, "That's right. ”

"Are you going to bring them back, then?"

"It's not my turn to bring it." Alhaitham stood up and put down the book in his hand, "Someone will come over in a while, if you want to read it, you can handle it yourself, I'll go first." ”

After saying that, Alhaitham left without looking back.

"What, what a stinking fart." Paimon whispered.

Ying, on the other hand, picked up the book that Alhaitham had put down.

When opened, it recorded a human experiment that Thatchin had done in the desert.

"What, let me see it too." Paimon tilted his head.

Ying hurriedly stopped: "It's a bad experiment, Paimon, you better don't watch it." ”

Thatch's exploration of the evils of human nature made Ying afraid that Paimon would be uncomfortable to watch.

Seeing this, Paimon obediently withdrew his head.

Ying continued to flip through the books, and her heart became heavier and heavier,

That's how it was to ...... Is it evil?

In Ying's view, Thatch's academic research that explores the bottom line of human nature is completely evil.

"Nahida and Daoyi, how could they allow Thatchin to pass on such a thing?" There was absurdity in the eyes.

"The experiment is sinful, but his results are already facts, and this is knowledge, even if the effects he brings are bad."

Nahida's voice came from behind Ying.

Ying was startled, put down the book, and turned her head to look behind her,

Nahida and Ah Hat stood there.

Nahida smiled at Ying, "Whether it is me or Daoyi, we will respect the knowledge that exists, the mistakes made by Thatch are irreparable, and we will try our best to remedy them with the wealth donated by Kaveh, but the knowledge he left behind will be sealed." ”

"Won't you destroy it?" Ying wondered.

According to Ying's thoughts, the knowledge obtained from such evil research should be destroyed.

"The knowledge is there, and it will not be lost with the destruction of the paper, and for a long time, there will always be people who will continue to follow the path of Thatchine, and it will be a warning to keep these materials." Nahida explained softly.

Ying was slightly silent, she was persuaded, she was always so easily persuaded.

"Any questions?" Nahida asked with a smile.

"So, you and Daoyi knew everything from the beginning, right?"

"Yes, although Thatchein is hidden in the crown of knowledge, it is not difficult to find in our eyes." Nahida nodded, "Thatchine's experiment has been going on for nearly twenty years, and it would be a shame to interrupt it directly, so I promised him to continue this experiment, and in order to ensure the safety of the contestants, we let Ah Hat participate in it." ”

"This guy obviously wants to win the championship." Paimon complained.

Ah Mao's eyes flashed: "If it weren't for the investigation of the problem of rain and wind and waves, you wouldn't have a chance to win me at all." ”

"Nahida, I think he needs to be re-educated." Paimon hides behind Ying and reports openly.

"Ah Hao's transformation is going well, don't look at him now, he is unforgiving, but his heart is still ...... Not bad. ”

Nahida originally wanted to say that Ah Hat's heart was still good, but after a while, she used the word 'not bad' instead.

"Well, we don't have a problem anymore." Ying got out of the way, revealing the information behind her.

Ah Hat went up, picked up the materials, and then flew away without looking back.

Like a ...... Rebellious child.

"Probably because of the sake of face, in front of you acquaintances, he always can't put down the shelf." Nahida said with a smile.

Ying shook her head slightly: "I'm not familiar with him." ”

Nahida still smiled, "But to him, you are already the only acquaintance he has left who can speak." ”

Ying was silent.

Nahida didn't say much, "Okay, it's over, it's time for me to go back to the Pure Shan Palace." ”

Seeing that Ying didn't speak, Paimon waved at Nahida, "Goodbye, Nahida." ”

"Goodbye." Nahida left.
