Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal
Chapter 273: Fountain of Eternal Life (Part 1)
"Ah?" Tianlang was stunned after hearing the woman's words, and then asked again, "No, are you sure she said that?"
"Of course, I'm sure." The woman said simply.
"No way, didn't you tell her what you just said?" Tianlang continued to ask.
The woman nodded: "Of course."
"Then she didn't say anything?"
"said."
"what did you say?"
The woman cleared her throat and said, "The master said, 'Tianlang? Who is he? I don't know him, get lost.'"
"Pfft!" Hearing this, Karen couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Hey, what are you laughing at!" He turned around and said angrily.
"Nothing, I just didn't expect that our connections would get slapped in the face, haha." Karen continued to hold back her laughter.
Not only Kailin, but even Zhao Heng and Mo Yan couldn't help but sneer at this moment.
"Hey, that's enough!" Tianlang said angrily, then looked at the woman again and said, "Um, could you please tell me again?"
The woman shook her head. "Excuse me, sir. To be honest, Master Du Ling is very angry about something right now, so please choose another time to visit."
She waved her hands with a helpless expression. Seeing this, Tianlang had no choice but to give up.
He knew the Poison Spirit's personality, but he still felt a little aggrieved when he thought about what the woman had just repeated.
I mean, that's nothing! We're colleagues after all, so why bother saying it so harshly?
The thought of this made him feel heartbroken.
Seeing this, the woman shook her head helplessly, then closed the door again and returned to the castle. At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from behind everyone.
"Hey, isn't this Lord Tianlang? How come you have time to come here today?"
Tianlang raised his head. Standing behind them was a black-haired man wearing an eye patch.
He was wearing a tight-fitting short jacket with black as the main color. The material looked very tight yet flexible. There were dark red decorative lines on the corners of the clothes. He was wearing black trousers, and the trouser legs were tightly tucked into a pair of black boots with simple metal buckles. Although they looked cool, they seemed out of place compared to the surrounding environment.
"Are you... He Qi?" Seeing this, Tianlang immediately smiled.
The man nodded and walked over.
At this moment, Kailin beside him asked, "Who is Tianlang?"
"Oh, he is He Qi. He is a member of the Seven Stars, just like Hualong, Qianshang, Jiexiang and others." Tianlang explained with a smile.
Hearing this, Kailin's eyes widened immediately: "Seven Stars, are they such big names?"
"Haha, you're too kind. My star sign is Tian'an Star, which puts me at the bottom of the Seven Stars. I'm nowhere near as powerful as Brother Hualong and Sister Perissa." He Qi walked over and said, "Long time no see, are these your friends?"
Tianlang nodded: "We just met a while ago. Because of some things, I brought them here."
"That's right, then what happened just now? You and Lord Poison Spirit are clearly of equal status, but why now..."
"Um... this is a bit difficult to say."
So, Tianlang told He Qi everything about his conversation with the woman. As expected, after hearing this, he also laughed, holding his stomach, and laughed endlessly...
"Hahahaha, help, this is too funny, hahahaha..."
"Hey, stop it right now!" Tianlang said angrily, his hands on his hips.
He Qi waved his hands, clutched his stomach, and apologized, "Sorry, sorry... I couldn't help myself, so you're being turned away now?"
"Yeah, it's just bad luck. Although I know she was dissatisfied with us before, she wouldn't say it so harshly now." Tianlang shrugged helplessly.
"Well, that's true. I've also heard about Lord Poison Spirit's past. Have I to say, this is indeed a bit too much." He Qi said.
Hearing this, Kailin's curiosity was piqued again: "The past? What kind of past would hold such a strong prejudice against you?"
"Oh, this..."
swoosh~
Tianlang was about to speak when suddenly, the castle gate opened. Just as everyone was stunned, a green spear flew out from inside and stabbed straight in front of Tianlang.
He turned his head to look at the gun in front of him. The tip of the gun was only millimeters away from him, and just as he was stunned, the door was closed again.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, it seems we have been ordered to leave." Zhao Heng said with his hands folded.
At this time, Kailin turned to look at Tianlang and asked, "Hey, did you owe her money before and didn't pay it back? Why does it feel like she is so hostile to you?"
At this moment, Tianlang sighed and said, "That's not the case. The poisonous spirit is almost always this impatient with every one of us guards. So, let's leave here first, to avoid her getting mad again and throwing something at us."
Mo Yan nodded: "I agree. I don't want to be accidentally injured."
So everyone went to a teahouse on the street and listened to Tianlang slowly tell the story.
"It's not that she has a big prejudice against us, but because she is disgusted with the duty of protection itself."
"Disgusted?" Karen looked puzzled.
Tianlang nodded. "Yes, remember what I said before? Each of us who protect our opponent has different prejudices about this responsibility. Not everyone thinks it is an honor. For example, Yang thinks it is a constraint."
Zhao Heng and the others looked at each other for a moment, then asked, "What do you mean?"
"Remember what I said? Once upon a time, this place was a vast rainforest, teeming with dangers. To survive, people established their own tribes here, and Yang came from one of those tribes."
"Back then, the Holy Lord, out of compassion for the living beings here, bestowed upon them the Fountain of Eternal Life, which could heal all wounds. Initially, this spring water did indeed bring benefits to the local people, but later they became dependent on it."
"People often say that since the Fountain of Eternal Life can heal injuries and cure aging, why would one go into the rainforest and put oneself in danger?"
"Slowly, people became lazy and greedy, no longer willing to tackle the challenges of the rainforest through their own efforts, and gradually forgot the existence of dangers."
"Finally, because the people were not motivated to make progress, danger crept in. Monsters swarmed out and attacked the tribe. Yang's tribe wasn't the first to be killed, but the tragedy was horrific. Countless people perished in the monsters' attacks, and the once peaceful and tranquil tribe was instantly transformed into a sea of blood."
