Genshin Impact: The Recorder of All Things

"Then she shouted: 'Go!'"

"Then a whooshing sound rang out, until everything calmed down..."

"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!"

"In that instant, there were no more demons standing around..."

"But the story goes like this: Prince Yan is fighting a horde of demons when he is in danger, and a beautiful woman with a powerful crossbow comes to his rescue!"

Zhong Gui: "Have I heard this before?"

Zhong Gui thought for a long time and realized that he had not only heard this passage before, but had heard it frequently...

"Hey Tian Tiezui, can't you say something new? How many times have you told this story? Aren't you tired of it?" Zhong Gui shouted at the storyteller above.

"Tired? This is the story of Lord Yan, how could it be tiring!" Tian Tiezui retorted.

"Nonsense, I've been listening to this since I was a child and I'm already tired of it," another listener chimed in.

"Exactly, exactly! Do you know how many hundreds of times I've listened to that?"

"You've listened to it hundreds of times, why are you still listening?"

"Aren't you listening too?"

"This is the story of Lord Yan!"

"Exactly! I could listen to it hundreds more times!"

Zhong Gui: "..."

You people change your tune so fast!

Snapped!

Tian Tiezui slammed his gavel, drawing everyone's attention. "Alright, alright, I know you've all had enough. We've been researching the new legends of Liyue Harbor lately, so I'll tell you a new story!"

"it is good!"

"Tian Tiezui, you've finally changed a bit."

"Start now! Start now!"

"Listen carefully, everyone—"

Snapped!

"Many years ago, the Emperor brought a child back from Jueyun Mountain..."

Zhong Gui: "!!!???"

Chapter 313 Young Master Li Yue, Zhong Gui = Xia Qi!?

Tian Tiezui, who always tells the same thing, finally changed today.

"Listen carefully, everyone—"

Snapped!

"Many years ago, the Emperor brought a child back from Jueyun Mountain..."

Zhong Gui: "!!!???"

Etc., etc!

How did this get out?!

Calm down, sort things out, maybe it's not about me.

It might refer to the old man's story of rescuing people in the wilderness.

"It is said that when this child was born, flowers rained down from the sky and golden lotuses sprang up from the ground, and a unicorn presented treasures—a celestial being bestowed auspicious omens!"

At that time, his name echoed softly throughout the entire Jueyun Realm—

At this moment, everyone held their breath, anticipating what Tian Tiezui would say next.

Tian Tiezui: "Hey, everyone, guess what?"

"What's the name!?"

"Damn it! Don't change the subject!"

"Continue from where you left off!"

"Tian Tiezui, do you still want to be a storyteller?!"

"If you don't want to talk, I can help you give your mouth to someone else!"

"Hehehe~" Tian Tiezui was not flustered at all, and chuckled, "As for the name, how would we know? In addition, I heard that it doesn't have an official name yet, and it's been waiting for Grandma Yan to name it one day."

"Tch~ It's like saying nothing at all..."

Zhong Gui: "..."

What is all this nonsense? I feel like I've gone off track.

Zhong Gui leaned to the side and nudged the person listening to the story next to him. "Old Gao, listening to a story?"

Old Gao, the fishmonger, glanced at him. "Ah, yes. Mr. Zhong, is this... hysteria?"

"What do you mean by hysteria?"

"I've been sitting here for most of the day. It's one thing if you didn't see me, but what else can I do if I'm not listening to the story?"

Zhong Gui: "..."

"Ahem, I just returned to Liyue a couple of days ago. Could you tell me what this is all about?"

"Up there..."

Upon hearing this, Lao Gao perked up. He first glanced around furtively, like a thief about to pounce, then leaned close to Zhong Gui's ear and whispered—

"I'm telling you, something terrible has happened in Liyue!"

Old Gao's fishy smell made Zhong Gui lean back slightly. "Please continue."

"You often go out, so you don't know... Wait, didn't you tell us all this?"

In recent years, Zhong Gui has been traveling around, acquiring knowledge from who-knows-where, and then writing and selling it in books. Logically, any news or developments should come from his books.

"As you know, news spreads quickly. In the marketplace, rumors can become truths. I have no idea what's circulating in the market now," Zhong Gui said helplessly, spreading his hands.

"That's true... but I assure you, everything I have is firsthand information!"

"Uh-huh."

Zhong Gui was somewhat exasperated. "Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, I'll find someone else."

Fortunately, Lao Gao didn't keep him waiting too long.

"Did you hear that?"

Never heard of it...

"Lord Yan and Lady Yan have a son!"

hiss--

Recently, a claim has suddenly emerged in Liyue Harbor that the Geo Archon has not appeared in every Summoning Ceremony since a few years ago.

"Think about it, the Rock Prince who came out here is so different in style from before, right? Wait a minute..."

At this point, Old Gao looked at Zhong Gui suspiciously, "Speaking of which, things started to change when Mr. Zhong began publishing his books. Don't you recognize this new Prince Yan?"

Zhong Gui paused for a moment, then a glint flashed in his eyes, and Lao Gao instantly ignored all topics related to Zhong Gui.

Zhong Gui was afraid that if he kept talking like that, he wouldn't finish by tomorrow morning.

"Oh, go on." Old Gao hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Actually, that wasn't Prince Yan anymore!"

"Let me tell you, Lord Yan and Lady Yan had a child many years ago!"

Zhong Gui: "..."

"Then, what happened at Guili Plain? Many immortals were killed or injured, even Grandma Rock King was gone. It was around that time that the unborn child suffered a severe injury and almost didn't survive."

"After the death of the Rock King's grandmother, she turned into a stone statue. The heartbroken Rock King sensed a faint breath in her arms. It was then that the immortals realized that the Rock King's grandmother was pregnant."

"Afterwards, the Emperor used immense divine power to take out the child and placed the still-developing child with the immortals in Jueyun Realm to continue its gestation."

Zhong Gui: "..."

What is this Xia Qi?

Legend has it that Yu the Great married a woman named Nüjiao from the Tushan clan. Nüjiao often followed Yu, mending his clothes, cooking for him, and together they traveled to famous mountains and rivers all over the country.

One day, when his wife left, Yu displayed his supernatural powers, transforming into a giant bear and digging at the rocks with his sharp claws. Inadvertently, a piece of rock rolled down and struck a drum. His wife, Nüjiao, heard the noise and came to the construction site to bring him food, but instead of her husband, she saw a giant bear and was terrified, turning tail and running away. His wife ran ahead, and Yu chased after her, all the way to the foot of Mount Song.

Having nowhere to turn, Nüjiao turned into a stone. At this time, Nüjiao was already pregnant.

Yu then stroked the stone and wept bitterly, crying out, "Give me back my son!"

Then, the north side of the stone split open, and a small baby fell out. This child was Yu's son, named Qi, and the founder of the Xia Dynasty.
