Chapter 201: Stone Gate
Liyue, Stone Gate.
It is a bustling transportation hub between the two countries, and you can often see people wearing different national costumes.
It's not just Liyue and Mondstadt.
There are even people from Inazuma and Sumeru, Fontaine, and other countries.
They were probably businessmen or tourists, which is why they came to Shimen, a relatively prosperous transportation hub.
After all, it was the last town Liyue had traveled to Mondstadt, and the first town Mondstadt had encountered on his way to Liyue.
No matter which way you go next, rest and resupply is inevitable here.
After Li Qiuzhi and Ying ran away from the location of the "teleportation anchor point", they first walked around the stone gate.
Ate some snacks and drank a bowl of tea at the tea stall.
Then it's time to continue on to Liyue Harbor.
The two followed the pedestrians on the dirt road to Liyue Harbor.
The next destination is Ogihuazhou, although it is a wild area, but there are many people coming and going near Shimen, and there should be a hotel or something.
If you can get there today, you probably won't have to sleep in the wilderness.
It was at this time.
Li Qiuzhi saw a group of people around the roadside, and it seemed to be very lively.
"What are they doing here? Why don't we go over and have a look? ”
Paimon said in mid-air, pointing curiously.
This guy is a person who likes to join in the fun, and Li Qiuzhi and Ying are also a little interested, so everyone gets closer to see what is going on.
"The aunts and uncles who passed by came to take a look.
"Half-immortal fortune telling, everything is accurate, not money, not for anything else, just to help the world.
"Whatever problem you encounter, just tell me!"
A middle-aged man wearing a gray square hat, a black beard on his upper lip, and a long beard on his chin sat behind a stall.
There were also two flags erected on either side of him, one on the left and one on the right:
【The True Legend of the Emperor】
【Half-Immortal】
After reading this, Paimon was taken aback, "What, we haven't even arrived in Liyue Harbor yet, so we just happened to meet that disciple of the Rock King Emperor?" ”
Listening to what Paimon said, Ying couldn't help but cross her waist and sigh, it was obvious that this was a lie, Paimon, this stupid guy actually believed it.
Li Qiuzhi also nodded in agreement.
How can immortals be seen so easily, and they also come out to tell fortunes in public.
In other words, this guy really dares, and he actually deceives in the name of the Emperor of the Rock King.
"Are you really a half-immortal?"
Of course, not everyone can recognize this simple deception, for example, a gray-haired old woman in the crowd of onlookers asked with a skeptical expression.
"Yes, we've never heard of any true legends of the Emperor?!"
A middle-aged woman dressed in a quaint and Liyue style was clearly unconvinced.
Their doubts also made more people look suspicious, although everyone is old and has not read any books, but not everyone can deceive.
"Alas!"
The middle-aged man who claimed to be the true legend of the emperor stroked his long beard on his chin, shook his head lightly and said with a smile:
"Wait, if you don't know the details, this immortal doesn't blame you for your offense.
"If I have doubts, then this immortal will tell you the story of how I apprenticed to the emperor."
His confident appearance seemed to make everyone unconsciously believe a little, and out of curiosity, the onlookers motioned for him to continue.
The middle-aged man wearing a gray square hat continued to stroke his beard, squinted his eyes and smiled, as if he was knowingly saying:
"That year was when Ben Xian was a child.
"At that time, there was a flood in Guilihara, and the thick yellow turbid water flooded the village where the immortal was located.
"Fortunately, it was discovered early and there were no casualties, but the crops in the village were flooded and washed away, and there was nothing left."
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man paused and wiped the tears that overflowed from the corners of his eyes.
Looking at the explosive appearance of this acting, Li Qiuzhi would have almost believed it with empathy if he hadn't seen too many of this kind of routine on the Internet before.
"Woo, it's so pitiful, if the crops are gone, won't there be no food for the next year?"
Paimon and some of the other elders seemed to be moved by the middle-aged man's words, and the crowd of onlookers fell silent.
Maybe they've had a similar experience before.
"Because there is no food, the villagers have no choice but to throw the young and ignorant children in the family into the wilderness and leave them to fend for themselves, and Benxian is one of them."
The middle-aged man continued slowly.
"What?!"
"How can this be, it's too pitiful, it's just how a young child can survive in the wild."
The old people and children on the spotter talked one after another.
The middle-aged man took everyone's reaction in his eyes, and sneered very disdainfully in his heart: What a bunch of stupid guys, you deserve to be deceived.
As a professional scammer, learning to take advantage of other people's empathy is the most basic thing to do.
He continued to pretend to be pitiful:
"Alas, if it goes on like this, Ben Xian and several companions in the village may not even be able to survive the first night, and they will be eaten by the monsters and beasts."
"And then, and then what happened?" A little boy who came out to play with his grandmother asked curiously.
The middle-aged man tidied up the gray square hat on his head and continued to tell:
"That's right, the next thing is what you think, a terrifying-looking monster appears and wants to eat the immortal and his fellow people in the village!
And at this time.
"A divine dragon emitting a dazzling golden light was attracted by our cry, and two breaths erupted from its nostrils to blow the monsters into ashes, yes, he is our beloved Emperor!"
"Shenlong! Sure enough, it's the Emperor! There seemed to be a golden light in the little boy's eyes.
No one in Liyue dared to pretend to be the Emperor, so everyone became a little convinced, and the middle-aged man continued:
"The follow-up is the story of the Emperor Emperor seeing that we were pitiful, taking us to his cultivation dojo and accepting us as disciples.
"And I am the smartest of the few, so I can become a true legend, as for where is the dojo and how to learn the immortal method, please forgive this immortal can not explain, it involves the secret of the emperor!"
"I see, it seems that Ling is really the true disciple of Lord Emperor, and after returning from school, he doesn't need money to tell fortunes, and he chooses to give back to the world, which is really great!"
It was a young man in the crowd with a red turban on his head, who looked a little excited.
Li Qiuzhi's eyelids jumped, no, the elderly and children are easy to be deceived, even if you are so young, you believe this?
And.
It's too stiff, isn't it, it's not natural at all, is it "support"?
