Genshin Impact: The Recorder of All Things

I used to enjoy storytellers bragging about themselves, but now I see my son writing a book and bragging about himself?

Old man, there's something wrong with your hobby.

Zhongli finished watching Liyue, then watched Mondstadt and Inazuma...

Before long, he had explored Teyvat through the book.

When are you and Hu Tao getting married?

"Weren't you reading a book?!"

Zhongli looked at Zhonggui without saying a word.

Zhong Gui wiggled his hips and looked to the side.

Zhongli: "Speak!"

"Hold on."

"When?"

"Everyone's here." Zhong Gui turned around. "Dad, I'll give you a big gift for your birthday."

"Life should never be a gift."

"What the heck? Do you know something?"

“You’ve never been a smart person.” Zhongli sighed as he said this, as if he was disappointed in you.

"..."

Zhong Gui's face was filled with grief and indignation. This old man had gone too far!

“Hehe~” Zhongli laughed, “Perhaps it’s because of your personality that you have so many friends in the Seven Kingdoms.”

"You mean they like being friends with idiots?"

“You’re not stupid,” Zhongli smiled slightly. “You’re just not as smart as those people.”

"Just an ordinary person."

"Hehe~ Keep this mindset, that's the most important thing. Anyway, that so-called wisdom will come naturally over time."

Zhong Gui: "..."

He knew that the old man wasn't referring to the kind of wisdom that Otto, Inzen, Tesla, or Einstein possessed, but rather the wisdom of experience.

I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice; I've learned to read people's minds from just a single gesture.

Over countless years, one day we will be able to reach that level.

I hope that this kind of vitality can still be maintained by then.

“Barbatos was a true sage, and I really hope you can become like him, rather than the next me.”

Then Zhongli, looking rather displeased, said, "Let's skip the drinking."

“I don’t like drinking,” Zhong Gui said.

"really."

They both preferred tea to alcohol.

Thinking this, Zhongli took out his tea set, but before he could brew the tea, Zhonggui still stuck the straw into the soda.

Zhongli: "..."

"Dad, want a drink?"

Zhong Gui took out another bottle.

Zhongli: "..."

A while later, the father and son, dressed in casual clothes and wearing sunglasses, lay on a deck chair, with a long soft straw in their mouths that stretched into a bottle on a small table next to them.

The difference is that Zhonggui contains soft drinks, while Zhongli contains tea.

Then Zhong Gui took out his phone, opened the music player, and Yun Jin's voice came from the phone.

Zhongli: “???”

Zhong Gui: "I recorded this before."

Zhongli: "→_→"

Zhong Gui: "You didn't ask~"

A Liyue opera is playing nearby, and two seemingly similar "young people" are living the life of old age...

"Comfortable~"

Zhong Gui pushed up his sunglasses and said to Zhong Li, "Speaking of which, the Traveler is supposed to appear this year, right?"

"Mm." Zhongli nodded.

Zhong Gui: "Brother or sister?"

Zhong Gui had no idea who would come, since he hadn't bothered to investigate.

Zhongli said, "Sister."

Zhong Gui: "Is there anything we need her to do?"

"It's up to you," Zhongli said indifferently. "Now, Liyue, you're in charge. Whether or not something needs to be done is up to you."

If Zhong Gui didn't exist, he would need the Traveler as an insurance policy, and he would also need her, an existence beyond the reach of the World Tree, to remember the history of Liyue.

But now it's not necessary; Zhong Gui can handle everything.

Zhongli: "If you need a tool, she should be pretty good."

Zhong Gui pursed his lips. Was there anything he wanted the traveler to do? There was no need... right?

Hmm~ She seems really useful?

Zhong Guiyi suddenly thought of many jobs, from trivial matters to saving the country, fighting the seven gods, saving the world... It seems that travelers can do anything, but the pay is not high.

"Let's talk about it when she gets here. Oh, by the way, what's this Paimon guy?"

The demons of Teyvat are variations of the seventy-two demons of Solomon; some have had their names changed, while others retain the original names.

Among the seventy-two demons are the four supreme pillars: Baal, Paimon, Astaroth, and Asmodeus.

The master of the Isle of Teyvat has four shadows—

Baal, 4.7 Raiden, is suspected to be one of the four shadows.

Paimon's origins are shrouded in mystery. Some say she was the maintainer of the natural order at the very beginning, while others say she is the ruler of time.

The ruler of the Teyvat era is called Istaru (derived from Astaroth), which is somewhat redundant, and Paimon's identity remains unknown.

Some say that the enforcer of justice at the beginning was Asmodeus...

Zhong Gui hadn't investigated any of this. Anyway, Sky Island only dared to sneak around and wouldn't dare to come looking for him, and he had never been to Sky Island.

Today, when we were talking about travelers, he remembered Paimon emergency food and casually asked about it.

Zhongli pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "..."

Chapter 195 Liyue's New Technology, Kaslana Syndrome

"I do not know either."

"If you don't want to say, then don't say. What do you mean you don't know?"

"Then why don't you go and check it yourself?"

"Isn't this a hassle?"

"You lazy bum..."

"Ha ha……"

"Excuse me, gentlemen," Rick said, stepping behind the two recliners.

"What brings you here? You're newlyweds, why aren't you at home with your wife? What are you doing here? Get a chair and sit down."

Rick went around to the front, and Zhong Gui got him a small stool.

Rick didn't sit down. Instead, he took out two things from his pocket and handed them to the two big shots.

Zhongli took the familiar object and examined it closely.

Zhong Gui looked at them and said, "Wow, you guys are pretty fast."

Rick handed them a cell phone, unlike the one they had used before which was hand-crafted by Schwi; it was a mass-producible, universal cell phone.

"Didn't you just tell me not long ago that you hadn't solved a technical problem? How come you're out of trouble so quickly?"

"The main reason is that a talented person arrived these past few days," Rick said with a smile.

"What kind of talent?"

“He’s from 04 Sumeru, his name is Siraj. He came to Liyue a few days ago looking for a job.” Rick paused for a moment. “He stopped me on my way home from get off work, showed me his talent, and after investigating his background and finding nothing wrong, I hired him.”

"Then he solved the technical problem in a few days and is now applying for his own laboratory, and has some materials."
