Chapter 2 I am Anping, the sailor of Liyue
Anping really thought he was dead. Until the moment when his consciousness revived in the darkness. The inexplicably familiar and warm black energy infiltration made Anping feel at ease as if he was in his mother's womb.
The darkness warmed his shattered soul and revived his consciousness. Glad that he didn't really die, distress also arose.
The incident of encountering the Ruotuo Dragon King at Nantianmen was beyond Anping's expectations. But the main trouble is that I happened to raid my sister-in-law by the way... With Shenhe's lack of common sense in the world, after seeing Ganyu, it is not difficult to imagine what amazing words she will say... I'm afraid the whole of Liyue is in a mess right now.
An Ping was very worried that after he opened his eyes, he saw their senior sisters turning against each other, and sharpening their knives Huo Huo to borrow the wind from his Liuyun.
Even worse is not necessarily. After all, in order to protect Shenhe this time, the injuries suffered were unprecedentedly severe, and how long Anping had passed during the coma was immeasurable.
If they had been in a coma for a year and a half or more, even Barbara Noelle and the others would have come to Liyue to find them.
In that case... Isn't it completely exposed?! The thought of waking up and seeing the sad expressions of the girls made Anping feel a headache.
What a sinful man he is. An Ping couldn't help but sigh. However, the return of consciousness does not mean that Anping has woken up.
He still felt as if his soul was floating in a black hole, all the light was swallowed up, and there was not a trace of light or sound in the endless darkness.
Dark and silent, lonely and deep. For a long time, Anping even wondered if he was really dead, and his soul was just floating in the dark netherworld.
Until finally I faintly heard the violent thunder. An Ping sensed that the thunder did not come from the darkness, but... Passed from his body.
When he heard the voice, An Ping finally felt the existence of his body and figured out his current state.
The injuries are still severe, and the body is slowly recovering, probably the same as the dead before. The question is, though... Why is there endless thunder in my ears?
Liyue is protected by the Emperor and has never experienced thunderstorms. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that this thunder is the aftermath of the battle.
Thinking of this possibility, An Ping stiffened his eyelids and barely stretched out a slit, and what he saw was the oppressive sky of thunderclouds surging, endless thunder crackling down on the sea, and black waves surging, looking like the end of the world.
This must be a dream. An Ping closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes, even if he found that he had been buried in a coffin, it was not unacceptable to even see Ganyu holding his head.
But why do you see yourself floating on the surface of a sea full of thunderstorms? What happened to me to get to such a fate?
Could it be that this is the punishment that Liuyun borrowed from the Wind True Monarch to inflict on him? Anping couldn't figure it out, but his soul was soon disconnected from his injured body, and his consciousness returned to darkness.
Until I felt the presence of my body again, there was no longer the loud sound of thunder exploding in my ears, and my body seemed to have escaped from that sea of suffering.
This time, when An Ping opened his eyes, he saw a beast-eared man standing in front of him with a torch and his hair standing on end.
He had a hellish look on his face. And behind the beast-eared man, there was also a group of uniformly dressed men, all of whom posed like the beast-eared man.
However, whether it was the beast-eared man or the men behind him, they were all faces that An Ping had never seen before.
The beast-eared man's hair is brown-colored, so he shouldn't be a sugar relative... In this dimly lit environment, it should not be taken to a strange laboratory for human experimentation.
However, the slightly fishy humid air and the swaying under his body brought Anping a familiar feeling that he had not seen for a long time.
I should be in the same boat. Could it be that they were salvaged by these people?
"Ahem... Where is this? An Ping felt that his throat was unusually dry, but he still held back the pain and asked weakly.
His body had not yet fully recovered, and it was as if it had been shredded and stitched back together, and the pain was excruciating from the inside out.
"This is the cabin of the Swordfish Ichiban Team of the Resistance..."Goro, who was startled, quickly replied when he heard Anhei speak.
The Resistance? Swordfish Ichiban team? These completely unheard words made Anping wonder if he had been in a coma for centuries and woke up with Liyue dead.
But then carefully observing the clothes of these people in front of him, Anping realized that he had most of them drifted to other countries.
And the country that looks almost indistinguishable from the people of Liyue... Drifted to Inazuma by yourself?! Anping remembered the thunderstorm he saw when he woke up the last time, which was probably what he had heard of, the sea area that was blocked by Thor with thunder... I actually crossed that sea with a mortally wounded and dying body... It's a bit of a fantasy... And most importantly, why did you come here from Liyue?
? Anping finally remembered the plan that Ningguang had discussed with him at the beginning. But since he appeared in Inazuma, it means that... Sure enough, all his affairs have been revealed.
An Ping vaguely recalled that before he took a breath, Noelle, Barbara, and Yola seemed to have come to his side... It seems like there's no worse way to explode!
Ningguang even did not hesitate to send himself to Inazuma in a state like a dead man... It's enough to show that Ganyu Noelle and the others are really angry... The kind of anger that doesn't whip the corpse is not enough to vent its anger... Forcing Ningguang to send herself to Inazuma for refuge.
It seems that before they are discouraged, I am afraid that they will not be able to go back. The completely wrong deduction came to a completely wrong conclusion, which made An Ping's heart feel like ashes.
In the course of Anping's desperate thoughts, Gorou realizes that he doesn't seem to be a corpse. So he crouched down and reached out to probe his breath and feel his heartbeat.
"He's really alive!" Goro, who found that Anpei's vital signs were complete, raised his head excitedly. Compared to the shogunate army, the resistance army is already weak, and every soldier is particularly important, not to mention the elite who participated in this special operation.
It's just that Gorou doesn't have any impression of this face of Anhei. He should not be a member of the team participating in this special operation.
However, perhaps it was another arrangement by Lord Sangonomiya, or perhaps the unaccounted soldiers from the last battle, but in short, the brothers of the rebels survived, which is a good thing.
"Brother, don't worry, we have rescued you from the Heavenly Territory, your injuries are very serious, rest well, the rebels will not give up any of their comrades, and will definitely help you heal." Gorou ripped off the unlucky white cloth covering Anping's body, found him a futon, and gently covered Anping's body intimately.
Did this enthusiastic beast-eared man misunderstand something... Anping didn't think he could do anything to make these locals treat him as a brother during the days when he was in a coma.
"But do you remember your name, brother? Which team is it, I'll give you credit. Seeing that Anhei was in good spirits, Gorou inquired about his identity.
"I... I shouldn't be from your army, my name is Anping, and I'm from Liyue..."
Although he knew that posing as a member of the rebels might be better treated, his false identity would be found out in the blink of an eye when he returned to the camp, and the consequences would be endless.
It's better to admit it now. These people aren't going to stab him through and throw him into the sea just because he's not a member of the Resistance, right?
Unless they're against Inazuma's Thor, the kind of rebellion that will be killed once exposed. Probably not... It's as hilarious as Liyue's Seven Stars rebelling and assassinating the Rock King.
"You're from Liyue?! Then why would you wear rebel clothes? Hung in the camp by the Heavenly Leader again?! "When he heard that Anping was from Liyue, Gorou couldn't believe it.
"And this kind of thing?! Ahem, cough, cough..."Hearing that he had suffered such inhuman treatment in the process of being unconscious, An Ping almost sat up in shock from his dying illness, and he let out a violent cough with anger in his chest.
If it weren't for the fact that his body was still in a state of decay, he would definitely raise a knife and go to the Heavenly Leader of Naraush to seek justice.
He's beaten the ass of the Emperor of the Rock King, and he can still let these Inazuma people be humiliated in vain? Hang up and whip the corpse?
It's just too deceitful!
"Don't worry, take a break for a while, you speak slowly, tell us what you know, why is this matter so strange everywhere?" Gorou calmed Anping, who was about to cough up blood in an emotional mood, stretched out his hand and motioned for his subordinates to pour a glass of water, and handed it to Anping to drink.
An Ping drank the water in one go, and immediately felt as if the dry and cracked ground had been moisturized, and it was a little soothed.
At present, he is still disabled, and the matter of revenge will be restored for the time being.
"But I don't know very well, I'm just a sailor, I lost my way during the voyage with the fleet, I strayed into a thunderstorm, the ship was wrecked, I also fell into the sea, and when I woke up, I saw you... I don't know exactly what's going on..."An Ping, who was much more comfortable, pondered his words and made up a clumsy, but somewhat credible reason.
Telling the truth seems false. The scroll that resisted the seal of the rock god himself was seriously injured, and the pink harem gathered to turn into a purgatory Shura field, and his body crossed the sea blocked by the god of thunder... This kind of thing to say it... If it weren't for Anping himself being the protagonist of the story, he would have to scold two sentences and blow Nb to whom.
"You're a sailor? Recently, the Liyue fleet has traveled to and from the vicinity of Haizhi Island... Could it be that you are a sailor of the Southern Cross?! Did your ship have an accident at sea?! Hearing Anping's identity, Gorou frowned and instantly became nervous.
Anpei was not surprised that the Southern Cross fleet had come here, he had long known that the Southern Cross fleet was in Inazuma.
But why is this beast-eared man so nervous? Could it be that they still have something to do with the Southern Cross fleet?
That's a good thing for me, at least the rebels have something to do with Liyue's fleet, and maybe they'll be able to take care of them a little.
Not to mention anything else, as long as you provide some simple food and water, you can already help Anping's body recover as soon as possible.
"I'm not from the Southern Cross fleet, our fleet is just a small fleet that helps those merchants transport goods, the Southern Cross fleet has the eldest sister in charge, how can it be shipwrecked at sea?" The sailors and even most of the captains, young and old, would call Beidou the head of the eldest sister, which was a sign of respect and gratitude for Beidou's Southern Cross fleet for sheltering the Liyue fleet as they walked on the sea.
After Anping finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the beast-eared man, and he couldn't help but wonder if this rebel army should be an organization that Beidou had incorporated in Inazuma.
It felt like he was more worried about the safety of the Southern Cross fleet than he was in Liyue.
"Then I figured it out, it is estimated that Brother Anping, when you drifted to the beach, you were changed into the clothes of our rebel army by the Shogunate Army and taken to take the lead to lead the army, fortunately, little brother, you are blessed with great fortune, and you have survived. Then you can stay on our Haizhi Island for the time being to recuperate, and let them bring it back to you the next time the Southern Cross fleet comes. "It's true that as Anping thought, Gorou didn't leave him alone because of Anping's identity.
"My name is Goro, and I'm the general of the rebels, so you can just call me Goro." Anping didn't expect this easy-going young man to be the general of the rebels.
But I wasn't too surprised. The acting head of the Knights of Favonius, the Celestial Power Star and the Jade Heng Star of the Seven Stars of Liyue, are both in high positions at a young age.
Just a general. It's no wonder.
"Then thank General Gorou first." Anpei didn't really call Gorou by his first name because of his easy-goingness.
People respect me, I respect people. Gorou's attitude towards Anping is not bad, and Anhei also respects and treats him with respect and courtesy.
"Okay, Brother Anping, your injuries are very serious, it's better to rest first, there are only some emergency hemostatic herbs on the ship, you don't have any external injuries, you can't use them. But tomorrow morning we can go back to Haiqi Island, and then we can have the doctor prescribe the right medicine for you, and we won't bother you. After Gorou finished speaking, he dismissed his subordinates who had been watching from the sidelines and went back to his ship.
It was quiet for a while, except for the howling of the sea breeze and the sound of the waves crashing against the hull. Anping, who was covered in pain, couldn't rest at all, so he could only silently recall the days with Ganyu and them to relieve some of the physical pain.
The pain in my body has lessened, but the sorrow in my heart has deepened.
"Brother Anping? Did you sleep? Suddenly, someone called Anping.
"Not yet, what's wrong?" An Ping responded.
"I heard you're from Liyue, how is Liyue doing? I have a distant cousin who can't stand the oppressive atmosphere after the Iazuma lockdown, and he rows alone to escape, and I don't know if he has broken through the blockade of Thunder... Brother Anping, have you ever seen Inazuma in Liyue? "Anping didn't expect to come to ask this.
"I've seen it... But the one I saw was a girl named Zhuzi... Probably not your cousin... But don't be discouraged, maybe your cousin rowed to Mondstadt..."
"Zhuzi! Is that Suko you said her home outside of Inazuma Castle?! I knew her, but I didn't expect her to actually escape! Suddenly, another voice popped up.
"I don't know if her house is where you said it is... But it should be the one you said..."Anping and Zhuzi are not very familiar with each other.
Occasionally open with her
"The cherry blossoms of my hometown are blooming" is just a joke.
"Brother Anping, tell me what Liyue is like now! I've heard that Liyue's food is delicious..."
"That's right! We haven't had a chance to go out since Inazuma locked down the country, tell us what the outside world has become..."A bunch of people suddenly surrounded Anping.
This kind of scene of a bunch of big men gathering around to tell a story can't help but remind An Ping of the days when he was adrift at sea when he was a sailor.
It's just that all the people around Anping became beautiful girls, and it's really not nostalgic at all...
