A stone table, four stone benches,

The breeze was gentle, with the morning sun shining on the creeper on the wall.

The handsome young man sat in his place, a cup of tea in his hand.

Time passed, and all the things in the world seemed to be unable to change him.

As Teyvat's oldest demon god, no one knows what Morax is hiding.

Maybe it's the secret of the opening of the world, or the history of the changes in the heavens.

As he said, he was just a rock that had not yet been worn out.

The history engraved on the rock is not worn out to him again and again.

The door to the courtyard was gently pushed open, and a young man walked in with a bear cub in his hand.

Looking at the other party's young face, Zhongli couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart.

It's so young, so young that even an old guy like him has to sigh a little.

"Emperor." Wang Daoyi called softly, and then put the pot on the ground.

The pot fart ran to Zhongli's side, stretched out the bear paws that were still stained with the juice of the bun filling and began to pull on him.

Zhongli didn't dislike it, he reached out and picked up the pot, put it on his lap, and gently scratched the pot's hair.

Wang Dao pouted, this action was not exclusive to the pot, Zhongli would also do this to the white cat at the door of the Afterlife Hall before.

The way to pet the cat to the bear seems to be very good.

Under Zhongli's scratching, the pot made a comfortable purring sound,

The corners of Zhongli's mouth were slightly outlined, with a hint of gentleness in his eyes, and then he turned his head to look at Wang Daoyi: "But it's for marriage?" ”

Wang Dao nodded, unceremoniously picked up Zhongli's teapot, refilled Zhongli's cup, and then poured himself another cup: "Yes, the matter over there in Sumeru is almost over, take advantage of the free time to prepare for the marriage." ”

"It's not just Sumeru, the confrontation between you and the Ice Empress there made us watch a good show."

Zhongli's words had a hint of ridicule in them, but they didn't look like him who was usually indifferent.

Wang Daoyi was not surprised that Zhongli knew what was happening on the edge of the world,

He confronted the Ice Empress that day, and although there was no fight, the wills of the two sides were always in conflict.

It's just normal to be discovered by an ancient demon god like Morax.

Not only Morax, Wang Daoyi knew, but Barbatos must have known it too.

In the confrontation that day, the Ice Empress instigated a terrifying blizzard.

But the Mondstadt Expeditionary Force next to the Fatui line didn't do anything at all.

This kind of outrageous thing, if there is no wind meddling, Wang Daoyi will not believe it.

"The mistakes that the doctor has made must be paid in blood, but the Ice Empress has a more 'great' goal, the two sides have different opinions, and confrontation is inevitable." Wang Daoyi didn't say much, just briefly introduced the matter.

"Doctor? Oh, I know that guy, when he was in Qingce Village, he was the one who created the evil shadow of the big snake, and I also killed one of his clones at that time. ”

"It's slicing, a profane technique." Wang Daoyi said softly.

The Qingcezhuang incident is basically a stick incident of Wang Daoyi in this world.

The battle with the Great Serpent Shadow made him realize the power of the gods for the first time.

It was also from that time that he had the idea of evolving from the form of a god to a god.

However, when Zhongli actually killed a slice of a doctor, he didn't realize it.

Of course, it's right to think about it, as a very important part of Liyue, it would be strange if the Doctor had done something so big and Zhongli hadn't reacted yet.

Killing a slice is a warning.

"Slices? I see, cutting out oneself from different timelines and using it to observe changes in the timeline is a blasphemous technique. Zhongli only thought about it slightly, and he understood the power of the doctor's slicing technique.

"If you want to kill the doctor, you will have to wait a little longer, that guy is also arrogant in his heart, he will not succumb to the Winter Palace for a long time, give him a little sense of security, he will naturally come out to move."

"Huh? The emperor doesn't mind if I kill him? ”

"Are you worried that killing him will affect the Ice Empress, and thus some of my plans?" Zhongli looked at Wang Daoyi with a smile and golden eyes.

Wang Daoyi nodded slightly: "Killing the doctor is just a gesture, but if it affects your plan, it will not be good." ”

At that time, Wang Daoyi would let the doctor go, and in addition to the Ice Empress's protection, he was more worried that it would affect the plans of other gods.

Ever since he ascended to the throne, the Doctor has not played an important role.

Only the gods can match the gods.

Zhongli put down the teacup in his hand and shook his head slightly: "The Empress of Ice protects him only because the Empress regards him as her own people, although the doctor is very useful, but under the banner of rebellion, he is not an important person. ”

Then he scratched the chin of the pot again, as if he was teasing a kitten: "When he comes out next time, you will kill him directly, and after committing so many crimes, it is time to pay back." ”

Zhongli didn't care about the doctor's life or death.

In the planning of these ancient demon gods, in the choice of the Ice Empress, although the existence of the Doctor is a helping role, it is not as big as Wang Daoyi thought.

If you kill it, you will kill it.

"Okay, I see." Nodding slightly, Wang Daoyi understood, and then changed the topic again, "About my marriage with Xiangling......"

"Master Mao and I will arrange everything, you just need to send a wedding card to your friends." Zhongli had a smile on his face, although Wang Daoyi was no longer his dependent, but Wang Daoyi's intimate relationship with him could not be erased.

And Xiangling is the eldest disciple of Grandma Ping, this wave belongs to kissing and kissing.

"Of course, Mora, who organizes the wedding, you have to come out by yourself, although I also want to help, but Hall Master Hu has recently cut my offerings."

Even as an emperor, Zhongli would occasionally be defeated by such a thing as poverty.

There are not many offerings in the Hall of the Afterlife, but it is still not enough for Zhongli, a guy who has no concept of spending money.

After receiving more and more bills, Hall Master Hu finally couldn't help it and took action to cut Zhongli's offerings.

Of course, this can't stop Zhongli from sending bills to the Afterlife Hall, but it can only make Zhongli understand a little that spending money is not just a matter of opening his mouth.

"Forehead ......"

Wang Daoyi was silent for a while, and finally didn't say that he didn't have any money.

If you really can't do it, let's go to the Mausoleum of the Red King and borrow some first.

Anyway, the Red King is also his predecessor, and he left a lot of wealth, isn't it just for himself.

As soon as Wang Dao took the money of the Red King, he took it with confidence.

"I'll send someone to send Mora to the Hall of the Dead, how much will it take?" Wang Daoyi asked.

"That couldn't be better." Zhongli chuckled, and then told Wang Daoyi where to spend money, "There are many places where you need to spend money......

Although Master Mao is an enlightened father, he knows that he only has one daughter, Xiangling, and after marrying Wang Daoyi, the future Wanmin Hall will also have these two children.

So he didn't even ask for a bride price or something.

But if there is no bride price, it does not mean that the wedding is not costly.

From welcome to banquet, from costume to flowers,

From ceremonies to ceremonies, from helpers to master of ceremonies.

Zhongli told Wang Daoyi in detail about each project, and then used his professional quality to report a huge amount of numbers.

In the end, the witness drank all the tea in his hand and looked at Wang Daoyi with a smile: "As far as what I just said, you can probably prepare three or five million Mora." ”

Three and a half million Mora.

Wang Dao didn't know what to say for a while.

Does it cost so much money to get married? Wang Daoyi was a little dazed.

But what Zhongli said was the Tao, and it seemed that he really wanted to.

According to Zhongli, when ordinary people get married, it is enough for relatives and friends to have a meal.

But Wang Daoyi is also a figure with a head and face in Liyue, so naturally he can't be so casual.

Zhongli and Master Mao discussed for a long time, preparing to reproduce the faint ceremony of Gu Liyue.

In ancient Liyue, most of the newlyweds choose to marry at dusk, so there is a saying that they will be at dusk.

It was a very complicated ritual, and now it seems somewhat thankless.

But the more complex the ritual, the more it reflects the solemnity of the prayer.

Master Mao has worked hard for most of his life, and he has a daughter, so he is naturally the most popular choice.

Even if the royal road doesn't come out of the Mora, Wanmintang will also take out this money.

That's what even Master Mao thought.

Anyway, in the end, Wanmin Hall is Wang Daoyi and Xiangling's.

Of course, Zhongli knew what Master Mao meant, but he still reminded Wang Daoyi.

After a moment's pause, Wang Daoyi immediately reacted and nodded at Zhongli: "I will send someone to send six million Mora to the Hall of the Dead." ”

If you need three or five million morals, then send six million moralas first.

Although it is a good tradition for the gods not to carry money with them, it does not mean that there is really no money.

Whether it is the legacy of the Red King, or the taxes of the Red Sands, or even the Mora that was looted from the Northland Bank at the beginning, it is enough for Wang Daoyi to mobilize six million Mora at will.

"It's really rich." Zhongli sighed inexplicably.

Wang Daoyi crossed the black line in his head, the god of wealth, the concept of wealth has always been a mystery.

In his own words, Mora is like his flesh and blood, and to disrespect Mora is to disrespect him.

But looking at his own lavish spending, he doesn't seem to have much respect for Mora.

This is probably the result of different concepts of consciousness.

Ordinary people respect Mora, and they will store Mora and divide the use of each piece of Mora.

And Zhongli respects Mora by exchanging them for things he feels valuable.

Although the Mora he spent does not seem to be his.

"If the Liyue vendor is willing to send a bill to Sumeru, you can send it to me." Wang Dao said with a smile.

Zhongli thought about it seriously for a while, and finally shook his head: "Forget it, the hall master should be able to hold on for a while." ”

At the end, he couldn't help but smile a little.

Hu Tao's eccentricity did make Zhongli a little unable to deal with it, but the bill Zhongli left for Hu Tao also gave Hu Tao a headache.

"Isn't Hall Master Hu in the Hall of the Dead recently?" When Wang Dao came, he didn't notice the breath of walnuts.

"Recently, Wufu Slope has not been quiet, and Hall Master Hu has stayed for a few days."

"Something happened in the narrow space of life and death?"

"It's just a little jolt, not a nuisance." Zhongli's face was calm, and he couldn't see any expression, "The second son of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, as well as the little guy from the Fang Shi family, went together, and it is estimated that he will be able to come back in two days." ”

Wang Daoyi nodded slightly,

Since Hu Tao is willing to bring Xingqiu and Chongyun, it is estimated that it is indeed not a big deal.

With Hu Tao's temperament, if there is really anything dangerous, then he will definitely not bring these two friends.

It is estimated that there is a remembrance of the soul of the world running out of the narrow space of life and death, and Hu Tao will take someone to catch it.

When the conversation ended, the atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

Zhongli could see that Wang Daoyi seemed to have something to say, but he didn't know how to speak.

He didn't speak, just scratched the pot with one hand and the teacup with the other.

Wang Daoyi didn't know how to speak,

For a while, there was only the sound of the blades colliding after the breeze blew through the creeper.

The sound of rustling is a little calmer.

Long

Wang Dao pondered for a while before he spoke: "Does the emperor know what is outside the world? ”

Zhongli's hand holding the teacup froze slightly, the tea shook, and a trace of tea slipped from the edge of the teacup.

But before it fell on the table, the tea cup in Zhongli's hand appeared under the tea,

The tea dripped back into the teacup.

"The world is round like a chicken, and beyond the world is vast, there are barren planets entrenched in the void, without any life."

Zhongli looked into Wang Daoyi's eyes and whispered this passage.

The royal road was clear, and sure enough, Zhongli knew the universe and the planets.

The fact that he can say that there are lifeless planets beyond this world is enough to prove that he understands beyond the world.

Wang Dao's eyes flashed slightly, and with a slight wave of his right hand, dozens of shielding arrays wrapped this small courtyard.

Then the elemental power surged, and words were sketched in front of Zhongli: "Lady Alice and I are at the edge of the world, and we meet guests from outside the world. ”

The words manifested for a short moment, then they dissipated into pure elemental force and vanished.

Zhongli's eyes flashed slightly, and his expression became serious.

"Revoke the circle, the sky is asleep, and what is left can't spy on me." Zhongli said softly.

Wang Daoyi knew in his heart, and sure enough, Nahida was right, the sky was indeed asleep.

Wang Dao arranged the magic circle, on the one hand, to prevent prying eyes, after all, Morax is the oldest existence among the seven gods, if the sky leaves surveillance, then Morax is the existence that must be monitored.

Zhongli's words also confirmed this, the sky was left behind, but it was no longer possible to spy on Morax.

"Not only me, but the other seven gods, the sky is no longer able to monitor." Zhongli's eyes were slightly cold, and he looked up at the sky, "Otherwise...... Why do you think the Ice Empress dares to say with great fanfare that she wants to raise a flag of rebellion? ”

For the existence above the heavens, Zhongli definitely has no good feelings.

Sky orchestrated the Demon God War, and in that horrific war, Zhongli had lost so much.

Although he recognized the status of the sky and became one of the seven earthly consuls,

But that doesn't mean he's really surrendered to the sky.

Most of the seven gods are like this, they recognize the status of the sky only because they love their people, not because they themselves are really subservient.

How could a group of beings who had fought out of the Demon God War easily surrender to an existence that provoked a war.

It was nothing more than the sky holding something that they were afraid of, and finally a balance was formed.

"At the edge of the world, Lady Alice asked me for help to repair the rift in the world, and in that secret realm, we met civilizations from outside the world."

Wang Daoyi whispered and told Zhongli about the matter of Jin Ren Si Yan.

He trusted this ancient demon god, and he didn't hide anything, and told Zhongli all the news of the so-called Yaoqing Immortal Boat, as well as the Star God and the Commander.

Silence, long silence,

In the face of this information, even if Zhongli has memorized the vast amount of information, it is inevitably a little fluctuating.

The heart, which has not fluctuated for thousands of years like a rock, was also shaken.

"You want to go out of this world." Zhongli seemed to be asking, but his tone was very confirmed.

Wang Daoyi didn't hide anything: "I have stood at the end of Teyvat, the endless long life has turned this world into a prison, I want to see more scenery." ”

Teyvat is a very good world for a mortal, and he can live happily ever after.

Teyvat is a very interesting world for a transcendent person who can spend a wonderful life here.

But what about a god? Especially for a young god like Wang Daoyi, who knew the vastness of the universe, Teyvat was a huge cage.

The original shell kept all danger out, and at the same time cut off all hope.

Wang Daoyi himself is a person who knows the existence of the universe, and now he has the power of terror.

Now I also understand the world barrier, the operating logic of the primordial shell,

Let him stay in Teyvat obediently again, it will be difficult for some strongmen.

The vast universe is like a book containing infinite knowledge, scratching its head at the royal road, luring the royal road to turn its pages, and then read it fiercely.

"Teyvat is good, but how long can it last? The weakness of the sky, the peeping of the abyss, the undercurrent surging, I need more strength to protect the people I want to protect. ”

Wang Daoyi's expression was solemn, and he looked at Zhongli's golden eyes: "Including you." ”

The action of reaching out to pour the tea froze slightly, Zhongli didn't know why, and there was indeed a little warmth in his heart.

It turns out that the people this child wants to protect include himself?

The little guy who was cautious in the face of himself at the beginning seems to have really grown up.

He didn't question Wang Daoyi's words, with his strength, it could naturally be seen that what Wang Daoyi said was from the bottom of his heart.

With a slight sigh in his heart, Zhongli refilled Wang Daoyi with tea.

"What do you want to know, ask, I won't hide it anymore."
