Chapter 159: What I Saw and Heard on the Island

After returning from Narujin Taisha.

Lin Feng and the others did not immediately go to the Solstice Embassy.

Instead, he was invited to Kamisato's house.

It looks like Kamisato Ayato has been waiting for a long time.

It should be that since Lin Feng and the others entered the Narujin Shrine, he has been waiting at the foot of the mountain and has not left.

This extremely intelligent young head of the family.

The mind is extremely active.

He knew one thing very well.

That is, simply as a dependant of the Ice God, it is impossible for Yae Miko to treat each other so seriously.

Unless.

Lin Feng came with the will of the Ice Empress.

Or or.

The person named Zhongli, who has a good identity at first glance, he is the one with the will of the Ice God.

But whatever the case may be.

To be able to make Yae Miko pay so much attention.

Talks between them.

It may have a big impact on Inazuma's future.

Therefore, Kamisato Ayato was even more enthusiastic than before, leading Lin Feng and them to think in the direction of Kamisato Yashiki.

Looking at Kamisato Ayato who was chatting with Zhongli enthusiastically.

Eula poked Lin Feng with her elbow and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you almost beat you to death before?" Why is he like he doesn't have anything at all? ”

The contrast is a bit big.

Eula didn't react for a moment.

When I was in Inazuma.

Lin Feng made the Kamisato family not ordinarily miserable, so miserable that even the Yae Miko, who was hidden in the shadow of the mountain, had to come forward to save their family once.

That's going to be ugly.

Kamisato Ayato is eager to break Lin Feng's corpse into ten thousand pieces.

And yet now.

His attitude towards Lin Feng was affectionate like a close friend he hadn't seen for many years.

I don't see any hypocrisy at all.

"Because now I have no interests with him."

Lin Feng spread his hands and said, "Kamisato Ayato wants to pry out some of Inazuma's future movements from our mouths. ”

"He knows me well and knows that I can't handle it."

"So he went to Mr. Zhongli to see if he could find out any information that was beneficial to him."

Eula shook her head at this explanation and said nothing more.

As the family that has collaborated the most with the Narukami Taisha, Kamisato Yashiki is located at the foot of Mt. Kagekai.

Descended the mountain.

The group soon arrived at this classic and luxurious mansion.

And just when Lin Feng had just made an appearance in Kamisato Yashiki.

A small figure suddenly fell from the tree with a thud, and then disappeared like a gust of wind.

"Yo, isn't this the little girl from Sayu?"

Seeing this familiar little figure, Lin Feng burst out laughing.

This little guy was choked by himself at the beginning, and it seems that he was made out of the psychological shadow.

Kamisato Ayato also saw Sayu's figure running away, and chuckled: "Sayu's favorite thing is to be lazy after work, and it takes a lot of effort for us to find her every time." ”

Zhongli also commented casually. "It's an interesting stealth trick."

And yet he said so.

Lin Feng was interested.

It can be called interesting by a god.

Sayu's whining flow looks like there's really something.

So Lin Feng asked meaningfully. "What kind of woohoo is this, is there only one heir of Sayu?"

"Hmm."

Kamisato Ayato nodded, and while leading Lin Feng and them inside, he introduced, "Woohoo Flow is a ninjutsu school that has been passed down for hundreds of years. ”

"It's just that today, except for Sayu, there is no one in this faction anymore."

said.

Kamisato Ayato sighed.

The heirs of each generation of Woohoo Ninjutsu are the intelligence leaders of the end of the world.

But back then, he wanted to save the precarious Kamisato family.

I had to use some special techniques to extract power from the crystallized bone marrow in order to quickly increase the strength of the final one.

Consequences of doing so.

It is that although the ninja trained is very strong, the lifespan is greatly reduced.

Hardly anyone survives the age of twenty.

At that time, there were no less than fifty ninjas who received training with Sayu.

Ultimately.

Only Sayu is left alive and alive until now.

And because of this.

This once had a complete ninjutsu heritage, and was very good at hiding and playing tricks on people.

Until now, there are only some ninjutsu such as escape stand-ins.

To paraphrase an old Liyue saying.

It's called fishing with all your might.

It's just that.

With the situation of the Kamisato family at that time, if this was not done, the family would be in danger.

After knowing that the Woohoo flow inheritance was broken.

Lin Feng could only secretly say sorry.

The things that the gods thought were interesting were gone.

The Kamisato family's dinner party is also of a very high standard.

Except for the head of the house, Kamisato Ayato.

The egret princess Kamisato Ayaka, who had been attacked by Lin Feng with her name, also attended the dinner.

Same as her brother.

Kamisato Ayaka behaved very calmly, and she was able to talk and laugh with Eula during the banquet.

The housekeeper Thoma, who is like a brother to the Kamisato siblings, acts as a waiter.

Arguably.

The sincerity of the Kamisato family is not insufficient.

There is a way to reach out and not hit a smiling person.

Kamisato Ayato's posture is sufficient, and he doesn't put on a stand for the head of the house.

Therefore, for him has always been hinted at openly and secretly.

Lin Feng vaguely reminded him that Inazuma might undergo major changes recently, and asked him to prepare early.

As for what exactly will change.

Lin Feng didn't elaborate.

I can't go into details.

Because the dialogue of the Narujin Taisha is the last.

Ray Films didn't immediately agree to his proposal.

But she didn't say no to it.

Instead, he said the same thing as Lin Feng's suggestion.

She wanted to see Inazuma before making a decision.

Yae Miko echoed with a grin, saying that she would bring Liyue's delegation with her when the time came.

Two gods, two half-immortals and one Liyue Seven Stars.

It's really a top team.

Lin Feng, who wants to act as a temporary tour guide, feels Alexander just by listening to it.

After a reception banquet worthy of the pleasure of the guest of honor.

Lin Feng declined Kamisato Ayato's invitation to stay overnight.

Returned to the long-lost Solstice Embassy.

The new Solstice Envoy is a senior inspector general who is nominally at the same level as Lin Feng and Ping.

But after the executive banquet.

The identity of Lin Fengbing's dependents has been passed down.

The two who were still equal in the past are now in a very different position.

For Lin Feng's sudden arrival without any notice.

He didn't ask.

It's just that they respectfully prepared the room for Lin Feng and them, and they didn't bother anymore.

The next day.

Lin Feng came to the Narujin Shrine with Zhongli early.

Eula didn't follow him.

It's not that Lin Feng doesn't want to take her.

It's that the team I'm going to lead today is really scary

It would be nice if Eula didn't know the identities of Zhongli and Lei in the movie.

Now she knows.

With her, I was afraid that I didn't even dare to say anything when I walked on the road.

Such an abnormal reaction is likely to be seen by Ganyu and the others.

Anyway, the Winter Embassy is safe now.

I simply didn't let her come with me.

When he came to the Narujin Shrine again and saw the new outfit of Lei Movie, Lin Feng couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

At this time, Lei Movie had already taken off her luxurious purple kimono, which symbolized the identity of the general.

Instead, she changed into a conservative red and white witch costume.

The purple braid, which had been tied for thousands of years, was also untied and tied into the same style as Yae Miko.

Not to mention those pendants.

All of them have been replaced with Yae Miko's favorite style.

Now Ray Movie is standing next to this fox.

At first glance, it's easy to mistake them for a pair of sisters.

"How?"

"So no one can recognize Ei's identity, right?"

Yae Miko was very proud, smiling and showing off her merits.

Lin Feng couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.

to show their admiration.

That's her.

If it was replaced by other people's clothes and hair accessories that made such a mess of the Thunder movie, it is estimated that it would have been cut a long time ago.

"Lord Thor."

"I can't call you that anymore today, how about calling you Shadow Lord?"

Lin Feng looked at Lei Movie and asked her opinion.

After Yae Miko whispered a few words, Lei Ying replied: "Miko said that this time it is a private interview with Weifu, and the shouting of adults will make those civilians feel afraid. ”

"You just call me."

"Call me."

β€œ.”

Ray Movie held back for a long time.

I didn't think of what kind of title I should use for the people.

Or Yae Miko gave a suggestion; "It's called Shadow, and it sounds kind."

Lin Feng: "."

Eldest sister.

Call yourself to do it.

I don't have the guts!

Lin Feng endured the desire to complain.

Just about to speak.

was interrupted by Lei Movie: "It's okay, it's not abrupt, and it's used to listening." ”

Zhongli also interjected at the right time.

"In terms of universal reason."

"Calling you a shadow is indeed in line with the rhetoric of visiting an old friend."

Both gods had already spoken.

Even if Lin Feng had the heart to object, he could only bite the bullet and say, "Then, Shadow? ”

It's a little awkward.

But Ray didn't say anything, nodding his head to indicate that it would be okay.

After that.

Several people waited in the shrine for a while.

Until the figures of Ganyu, Yanfei and Keqing appeared at the Narukami Taisha.

At first glance, I saw Zhongli and Lin Feng.

Ganyu and Keqing both shouted in surprise: "Mr. Zhongli? ”

Only Yanfei shouted the word 'emperor' first, and then changed his words and shouted: "Mr. Zhongli, why are you here?" ”

Although he didn't shout out the word emperor.

But the respect in the words has not diminished in the slightest.

β€œοΌŸοΌŸοΌŸβ€

Ganyu and Keqing glanced at her in unison.

"Ugh"

Yanfei explained hesitantly: "Mr. Zhongli is a friend of grandma. ”

This explanation is a little reluctant.

However, Keqing thought that Zhongli was an immortal like Grandma Ping, and also confirmed his previous guess from the side.

As for Ganyu.

She was still a little confused.

She knew all the immortals in Liyue, could it be that Zhongli had slept on some mountain for thousands of years?

It's just not the time to think about this.

Because over there, Keqing and Yanfei had already asked in unison: "Lin Feng/Oedipus, what are you doing in Inazuma?" ”

They didn't say anything bad.

I just think that Lin Feng, a member of the Ice God, suddenly ran from Liyue to Inazuma, did he have some organizational conspiracy to do?

Lin Feng is an immortal disciple of Liyue and will not harm Liyue.

This is an established fact.

But Inazuma, who has nothing to do with him, is not necessarily.

Seeing Yanfei and Keqing, they looked at Yae Miko with an inquiring expression.

Lin Feng shrugged his shoulders and said, "I came with Mr. Zhongli to visit my old friend. ”

"Old friends?"

Keqing still didn't believe it.

Zhongli is an immortal in Liyue, and his friend is not in Liyue, but in Inazuma?

"That's true."

Seeing the three people with puzzled faces, Zhongli relieved Lin Feng and said, "Ying and I have known each other for many years, and I was recently invited by her to come to Inazuma as a guest. ”

"Lin Feng and Ying are also old acquaintances, so they walked with me."

He finished.

Lei Movie also nodded to the three of them at this Ganyu.

Mr. Zhongli's old friend and Lin Feng are also old acquaintances?

If Zhongli is an immortal.

Then this lady named Shadow should also have at least a thousand years old.

But this shadow and Lin Feng are old acquaintances.

So here's the problem.

How old is Lin Feng?

Isn't he only eighteen?

A child who is not even a child in the eyes of the immortals, how can He De become old friends with the immortals.

Could it be that this bastard is actually pretending to be tender?

"Alright, alright, you two don't get suspicious out there."

"We're here today for business."

Seeing that Ganyu and Keqing still looked disbelieving, Yanfei hurriedly came to play the round.

Others don't know Zhongli's identity.

She couldn't know better.

The people who can be called old friends by Zhongli are except for immortals.

Yanfei didn't dare to think about it.

"Oh, yes, Miko, didn't you make an appointment to visit the Kanding Commission on the outlying islands today?"

was said by Yanfei, Keqing immediately brought the topic back to today's business.

Previously, because the emperor suddenly said that he was going to Yunlaihai to suppress the demon god who was moving.

As a result, Liyue's affairs suddenly became busy.

Keqing refused Yae Miko's invitation several times in succession.

It wasn't until she chatted with Lin Feng again that day that her opinion of Lin Feng had changed somewhat.

In addition, when Yae Miko invited herself, she mentioned Inazuma's ocean trade because of Lin Feng's troublemakers, and she is now in a semi-paralyzed state.

This gave Keqing the idea of wanting to go to Inazuma to see what Lin Feng had done.

Today is the time to make an agreement with Yae Miko to negotiate ocean trade.

"Since they've all bumped into each other."

"Why don't we go together?"

Yae Miko smiled with a fox smile on his face, and he had a feeling that he had succeeded in his treacherous scheme.

But Keqing didn't notice anything wrong.

He just frowned at the fact that he wanted to go with Lin Feng.

But no objections were raised.

That's it

An expedition that was not mighty but was a heavyweight set off from the Narukami Shrine.

Lin Feng is very conscious of a tour guide.

Consciously walk in the front with Yae Miko.

Ganyu, Yanfei and Keqing walked in the middle, exchanging words from time to time.

Zhongli and Lei Films formed a taciturn duo, two nominal old friends, who walked on the road but didn't say a word.

This made Ganyu and the others even more curious.

Only Yanfei probably knew it in his heart, but he didn't dare to say his own guess.

"Yesterday I told Kamisato Ayato about your rotten road."

Lin Feng walked in front, unscrupulously criticizing this and that.

The first thing to suffer was the tattered road to the mountain.

This is the right given to him by Ray Films.

In the words of the god, she will say whatever is said today, and she will not blame.

"Oh, this is the rule set by Lord Fox Palace."

"Because the mortals of that era were much stronger than the mortals of today."

Yae Miko looked at the believers who gave up halfway through the mountain, and said with a smile: "The people of that era valued the belief in Narukami-sama more than their own lives. ”

For this statement.

Lin Feng said undeniably: "Because the people of this era can eat enough." ”

"When do mortals need God the most?"

"It's nothing more than being in trouble, not having enough to eat, not having enough clothes, or facing a life-and-death crisis, and God is all they have to live at that time."

"And what about this era?"

"Even if people don't have a good life, at least they are well fed and clothed, so they don't need the gods as much as they did in ancient times."

"So there are fewer and fewer mortals going to the Narukami Shrine, and more and more mortals are giving up halfway."

His voice was neither heavy nor light.

Just enough to make the Zhongli and Ray movies that fall at the end hear.

The two gods frowned at the same time.

However, before leaving, Lin Feng told them to listen as much as possible and ask as little as possible, and experience the life of mortals.

Therefore they endured their temperament.

Continue to listen to Lin Feng making his ungodly remarks there.

"Hehe, really, it's interesting."

Yae Miko seemed to have heard something funny, and covered her mouth and smiled: "But what you said makes a lot of sense. ”

"Five hundred years ago, I just took over the position of palace director, and the people at that time worked hard and hard just to say the sentence [Changdao is magnificent, Naruto is eternal] in front of the statue of the Lord of the Imperial Palace."

"Now."

"Oops-"

Yae Miko's face swelled with a touch of playfulness again, and he folded his hands and counted: "Those who ask for marriage, want Narujin to bless them and pass the exam, and ask for blessings from children, all kinds of messy reasons, there are more than that~"

"The dignified Narujin Shrine, what does it look like?"

"Oh, by the way, a bunch of gods!"

That's all it takes.

Yae Miko's gaze glanced back faintly.

However, she was a little disappointed by the performance of Ray Movie, because Ray Movie did not show any dissatisfaction at all.

"What is sincerity? What is insincerity? ”

"There are mortals who have a strong belief in Lord Thor, and they firmly believe that Thor can solve anything for them."

"But God is not omnipotent."

"Headache and brain fever, love and marriage, career twists and turns, birth, old age, sickness and death, even if Lord Thor has a heart, he is powerless."

Lin Feng also gave an example: "Two days ago, I heard a witch named Shinobi say something. ”

"Oh, she's not a shrine maiden anymore."

"Shinobu was born into a family of shrine maidens, so he was sent to Narujin Taisha at a young age."

"She told me that when she first arrived at the shrine, she had a cold wind, so she did as the old man said, wrapped herself in thorny grass and prayed all night for Naruto's protection."

"On the second day, all she responded to was her hot forehead."

Speaking of which.

Keqing couldn't help but interject: "Nonsense! Even if we people of Liyue believe in the Emperor of the Rocks, we have never done such a ridiculous thing, and the Emperor is not a doctor, so how can we heal the sick? ”

"That's right."

Lin Feng turned back to Ke Qing and grinned, and then changed his words: "But if some people believe this, don't fight me, you Liyue also have this kind of person, but you haven't seen it." ”

See the appearance of Keqing's speech.

Lin Feng sneered, and then said, "After that shrine maiden named Shinobu recovered from her illness, she began to wonder if her belief in Narujin had been wrong. ”

Later, she discovered that many strange rules were born because of her belief in Narujin, but in fact they were all red tape that had no use and no meaning.

So, in the end, she chose to leave the shrine and chose to believe in the gods in her own way.

"So now here's the problem."

"This shinobi, does she believe in gods or not? I wonder what Yae Miyaji thinks about this matter? ”

This is a very serious question.

The shrine maiden, who was supposed to serve the gods, fled the shrine.

In the eyes of those fanatical believers.

This is undoubtedly blasphemous.

But her belief in the gods was only shaken after being hurt again and again.

It's really hard to evaluate such a thing.

Unlike the whispering Liyue trio and the taciturn two gods.

Yae Miko, who already knew the answer, was very calm: "It's just that I believe in the gods in my own way, so I have to believe in the gods again." ”

Bang Bang Bang –

Lin Feng applauded: "That's a good point." ”

said.

He glanced back at Keqing and the others, and said meaningfully, "That shinobi gained the Vision of God the moment he stepped out of the shrine. ”

"It represents."

"The gods have also approved of her approach."

Keqing and several of them exclaimed: "What! ”

Hearing this result, even the ungodly Keqing could not hide the shock in his pupils.

"So the conversation came back in circles."

"You want to judge whether mortals are sincere in their devotion to God."

"But it's something you can't judge."

Standing at the foot of the Shadow Mountain, Lin Feng said with a smile: "So it's better to build the road to Tanpei, so that the people of Inazuma can have the opportunity to pay homage to the statue of the Lord of the Imperial Palace." ”

"It's not like now, mortals can't see God, and even see a clay statue of God."

"This so-called test is the terrible thing that is helping these mortals to become more and more alienated from God."

After listening to Lin Feng for so long, Lei Movie was moved for the first time.

Just for a moment, though.

But Yae Miko still caught the change in her expression, so she smiled triumphantly, "What you said makes sense, tomorrow I will hire craftsmen to repair these roads." ”

That's it.

That's it.

After that, on the way from Shadow Mountain to the outlying islands.

Lin Feng's mouth never stopped.

This time.

He's not complaining about Inazuma's problem.

Instead, he generously admitted his previous misdeeds in Inazuma, and apologized to Yae Miko for these things.

As for whether he said it to Yae Miko or not, it is unknown.

Among these sins to which he confessed.

The survey is the hardest hit area.

This is what Keqing wants to hear the most.

It is also a place where the more she listens, the more chills she feels in her heart.

Because this Hiiragi Shinsuke is too unscrupulous.

For their own selfish gain.

The large-scale suppression of those small businessmen, and the use of violent repression methods in the hands of the power, so that those small businessmen have little way to live.

Eventually, the small merchants had to flee Inazuma.

Eventually, most of the trade orders on the outlying islands fell into the hands of the Fatui of foreign enemies.

What's even more infuriating.

In order to suppress his political opponents, Shinsuke Hiiragi did not hesitate to cooperate with Lin Feng, who obviously had bad intentions, and jointly launched an offensive attack on his colleagues' social commissions.

The same is true of the Heavenly Order.

Just because of some promises, they were played around.

And Lin Feng was playing tricks all the time, relying on public opinion and various promises, he plundered a lot of benefits from Inazuma for the Fatui.

It also caused the problem that Inazuma's ocean-going trade is still paralyzed today.

This kind of thing not only made Keqing ponder.

Ganyu and Yanfei also looked solemn.

Even Lei Yingying and Zhongli, who had spoken very little along the way, whispered a few words about this matter, but they didn't know whether they were 'praising Lin Feng' or finding their own fault.

Coming back to the outlying islands.

Compared to the last time Lin Feng came, it was lively and lively.

Today's outlying islands are particularly deserted.

Relying on merchants who do ocean trade.

In the past, there were people selling everything along the streets of the outlying islands.

In particular, hotels that offer a variety of services are the backbone of the island's economy.

However.

As the ocean-going trade took a hit, the merchants of the outlying islands fled.

Lose these high-spending people.

In a very short time.

High costs, plummeting revenues, and a rapid slump in local business were hit.

Now except for the hawkers who push carts and are weakly hawking.

Most of the faΓ§ade has been emptied, and the door has been locked.

"This is an outlying island?"

Ray Films, who had always been reticent, finally spoke.

Today's outlying islands.

It's not even as good as it was when it was just rebuilt after the dark disaster 500 years ago.

"I did it."

"I'm sorry."

Lin Feng is very skillful in admitting his mistake and apologizing.

Speaking of thunder, the movie doesn't know how to answer.

"Miss Keqing, the Kanji you are looking for is in that direction."

Lin Feng pointed in the direction of Hiiragi's family and said.

Then he walked to a food stall on the side of the street and skillfully struck up a conversation with the stall owner.

After chatting for a few words.

He waved at Zhongli and Lei Yingying and said, "Shadow, Mr. Zhongli, I bought bird's egg roast and dry roasted sweetfish, let's eat some together." ”

Hearing Lin Feng's shouting.

Several people also let go of their emotions and walked over together.

Even Keqing was not in a hurry to investigate the practice, and made a special trip to listen to the small talk between Lin Feng and the stall owner.

The owner of the grilled fish stall was a young man with a pale face, and his wife was also helping out.

The husband and wife grilled fish and made bird eggs.

Maybe it's because of the conversation with Lin Feng.

The stall owner sighed while grilling the fish: "Little brother, you have also seen it, this remote island has become like this now, how can there be any good business." ”

"I don't know what kind of wind Kanding pursues, and I have to drive those merchants away."

"Ahh

"Their business hasn't been delayed much, but we're all over for petty trouble."

"Look around here, how many of them can afford to open their doors."

He crossed his fingers and began to count: "Rent, water, coal, protection, labor, which is not a cost, originally there were many guests, and the shots were generous, and everyone's life was still good." ”

"But all of a sudden, it was like this."

"Ahh

"If I hadn't used the faΓ§ade at a smaller cost, I would have hanged myself and jumped into the river."

Lin Feng listened carefully.

Nodding from time to time.

When the stall owner finished complaining, he asked, "I just heard you say that you still have to pay protection money here?" ”

"Deliver."

"There's nothing you don't pay."

As soon as it came to paying the protection fee, the stall owner's originally pale face instantly became rosy: "Kanding pursues this group of jackals who eat meat and don't spit out bones, hmph, they died well, and the general killed them too right." ”

"Everyone was originally begging for a living, but it was hard to earn some money, and they had to be exploited by these beasts."

Ray movie eating bird's eggs.

After hearing this, he suddenly felt that the delicious food in his hand was no longer fragrant, and he couldn't help but snort coldly: "Hmph, Hiiragi Shinsuke, damn it!" ”

"Who's to say it isn't!"

The stall owner also chimed in, and then said regretfully: "It's a pity that the general killed him too late." ”

"The outlying islands have become like this, and I don't know when they will return to the lively and lively times they used to be."

"Ahh

The more we talked, the heavier it became.

The stall owner's wife kicked him hard from below, reprimanding, "Why do you always say this in front of customers? ”

Her voice was stern.

It looks like he's really angry.

But the people here are not human spirits.

Everyone can see that she is actually afraid that she will lose if she talks too much.

Who knows if there are any spies among the guests who come and go.

A few grilled fish and a few servings of bird's eggs were eaten quickly.

Lin Feng generously paid the money, including the three of them and the Yae Miko, and he also bought all the orders.

Leave this stall.

Seeing that Keqing was still following him, he didn't go to Kanding.

Lin Feng glanced at her and said, "Miss Keqing, why don't you go to Kanding to carry it out." ”

"There's no hurry."

Keqing shook her head: "I think, take a look at it." ”

Listened to this.

Instead of provoking her like he did in Liyue, Lin Feng smacked his tongue and said, "Tsk, okay." ”

Next.

He led the crowd to the next goal.

He is also one of the worst victims on the outlying islands.

International Chamber of Commerce.

May Day may not be able to guarantee 10,000 words during this time.

There are a lot of things going on at home.

However, every day will try to have as many yards as possible, how many yards are sent (; Π΄οΌ› )
