Transmigrating to the world of Genshin Impact and becoming a big shot.
Chapter 23 is titled: "The Demon God of Blessings"
"Well, Shani said the crying only happens at night, so let's wait a bit."
Elhesen waved his hand and said.
"Until then... take a break."
As they were talking, they spotted the wooden crates nearby, walked over, and sat down.
He then pulled out a book from behind him and began to read it seriously.
"He sat down so confidently! And he even started reading a book!"
Paimon was shocked to see that this person was in an unknown and dangerous place and dared to read a book as if nothing was wrong!
"What are you looking at? Let me see too!"
Paimon crossed his arms and asked with a curious look.
After saying that, he flew to Elhesen's side.
Al-Hysen didn't refuse and moved the book closer to Paimon to read it with her.
"..."
"Uh...uh..."
"([Natural position], that is, [natural motion] as opposed to [forced motion]... Hmm?, the position that tends to, each thing... can only naturally tend to...)."
Paimon stared wide-eyed, his little hand supporting his chin, and read it very seriously. It was obvious that Paimon's brain was not working properly, and he read very poorly. He was stunned for a while and still couldn't figure it out.
Ying, listening to Paimon's hesitant rambling, also felt a headache coming on. She pressed a hand to her forehead and sighed. In her heart, she thought, "Ugh, Paimon's curiosity is so embarrassing."
"Why do you read it so haltingly?"
Al-Hysen looked at Paimon and joked.
"I give up. You can watch it yourself... Goodbye!"
Paimon was speechless after hearing that.
Then it flew to Ying's side.
"That guy really has a lot of free time, reading such complicated books in a place like this."
Paimon sat on Ying's shoulders and complained.
After saying that, he glanced at Elhesen's focused expression.
"Perhaps I should start giving you academic lessons."
Ying hugged [Zhao Chuan] and smiled as she spoke to Paimon.
"Hey, I'm your Teyvat guide, and I'm very cultured!"
Paimon looked at Ying in disbelief, thinking to himself, "I'm so sad to be looked down upon," and immediately retorted.
After saying that, she turned her face away angrily, crossed her arms, and floated in the air, as if she hadn't explained things clearly.
"It's because the books these Sumeru people read are too complicated, it's not my fault..."
Paimon looked at Ying and said in a serious tone.
"Okay, okay, Paimon is good, be a good boy~"
Seeing that Paimon was still so cute even when she was angry, Ying reached out and patted her head, coaxing Paimon to be good.
As the sun slowly sets in the sky.
"Wait, where am I...?"
[Zhao Chuan] opened his eyes vaguely, and what he saw in front of him was a ball wrapped in a very turbulent white cloth.
"[Zhao Chuan] You're awake. I'm glad you're alright."
Paimon saw [Zhao Chuan] rubbing his eyes and asking worriedly.
"[Zhao Chuan] Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
Upon hearing Paimon's voice, Ying looked down at Zhao Chuan with concern.
"I'm sorry to have worried you, I'm fine."
[Zhao Chuan] quickly left Ying's side and said apologetically.
"[Zhao Chuan] What have you been doing these past few days? What are you doing here...?"
Paimon asked curiously.
"this……."
"It's a long story... After we parted ways at the village entrance, I vaguely sensed that someone was following us, so I went to look for them. But I didn't expect to encounter a quicksand pit, and I fell in. After I climbed out, I heard some noises. They seemed to be all wearing masks, carrying some crazy people and some props, trying to leave. I went to stop them, but I was ambushed. And then that was it."
[Zhao Chuan]'s eyes darted around, but he quickly told a lie, explaining the situation that didn't match what he said.
However, Elhesen and Ying did not notice anything amiss, and they did glean an important piece of information: these people had actually moved away before they arrived.
"It's good that you're alright. You can rest here for now. Leave the rest to us."
Ying patted Zhao Chuan's hand and said with a smile.
"Okay, you can go ahead. Don't worry about me, I'll stand guard for you."
[Zhao Chuan] patted his chest and said confidently.
"Okay, we're going. Be careful on your own."
Ying found it amusing that Zhao Chuan was showing off as soon as he got up, but she couldn't call him out on it, so she just went along with it.
After saying goodbye, Al-Hysen took Paimon and Bright to find the source of the crying.
"Is this the source of the sound? But I don't see anything there."
Paimon looked around, puzzled, and asked.
Elhesen looked around and keenly sensed that the crying was coming from underground.
"under."
Al-Hysen focused his attention, checked again, pointed to the wooden plank on the ground, and said accurately.
"Oh? But we can't get down from here."
Paimon stared in disbelief. Could there be another passage down there?
"Look, there's something fishy going on here."
Al-Hysen crouched down and lifted the wooden plank, revealing a staircase hidden beneath it that led directly to the basement.
Then they went inside.
Furthermore... Liyue Harbor...
"Where am I... Ouch, my head hurts so much..."
In the hazy darkness, I slowly saw a light appear in the distance, a gentle ray of sunlight.
"Sir, you're awake."
Then a stiff sound was heard.
At this moment, Zhao Chuan lay on the bed, covering his eyes with his hands, but he couldn't stop the tears from falling.
"Hello, sir, are you alright?"
At this moment, a man wearing glasses, with a white snake wrapped around his neck, came over and brought over a bowl of medicine.
"I am fine."
Zhao Chuan slowly moved his hand away from his eyes, then slowly sat up and said.
"Sir, please finish this bowl of medicine first, and then I will take your pulse."
The doctor with the white snake wrapped around his neck took Zhao Chuan's hand and began to take his pulse.
"Don't move, sir."
Suddenly, the white snake on the doctor's neck spoke.
Zhao Chuan was so frightened that he threw away the bowl he had just drunk his medicine from.
"What...what the hell is this?"
Zhao Chuan immediately withdrew his hand and assumed a defensive stance.
"Sir, don't be nervous. This is my friend, named Changsheng."
The doctor explained to the flustered patient.
"Sir, don't be afraid, I don't eat people."
At this moment, the silver-white snake spoke.
"Sorry, I was rash."
Zhao Chuan used his spiritual vision to take a look and found that the person and snake in front of him meant no harm, so he apologized apologetically.
"It's alright, your pulse is normal now, there shouldn't be any major problems, you can leave now."
The doctor said, resting his chin on his hand.
"Thank you, I didn't know your name."
Zhao Chuan got out of bed and said with a smile.
“My name is Bai Shu, and I am the owner of this (Bu Bu Lu) restaurant.”
Bai Shu pushed up his glasses and said.
After a warm and gentle conversation to dispel the chill, Zhao Chuan left Bubulu. At a glance, he saw a series of very familiar buildings, as if he had already returned home.
Zhao Chuan walked to the edge of the small pond and saw a familiar figure.
"Good evening, Lord Zhongli."
Zhao Chuan greeted Zhong Li, who was taking a walk.
Good evening, young friend.
"It's inappropriate for you to call me 'sir,' young friend. Just call me Zhongli."
Zhongli stepped forward... and said with a slightly amused expression.
"Okay, Zhongli, you're just taking a stroll."
Zhao Chuan scratched the back of his head and said awkwardly.
"Hmm, this isn't the place to talk. Come with me to a quiet place."
Zhongli waved his hand and pointed in a direction.
"Alright, Zhongli, lead the way."
Zhao Chuan agreed without the slightest hesitation.
They then walked to the top of Mount Tianheng and looked out over the entire Liyue Harbor.
"Thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye."
Zhongli fell into deep thought.
"Thousands of years have passed. The gods of Liyue have departed, and the era of humanity has begun."
Zhao Chuan chimed in from the side.
"I have never understood what power you have, and how you were born."
"I have no other intention than to protect the people of Liyue from even greater risks while I am still lucid."
Zhongli didn't beat around the bush and said it directly.
"Zhongli, what's wrong with you? What do you mean you're still conscious?"
Instead of answering his question directly, Zhao Chuan asked him a question in return.
"I am the Demon God of Rocks. I descended to this mortal land because of people's desire for rocks. I led my people to cultivate the land and survive. As time went by and everything returned to normal, the feelings that developed between me and the people gradually wore off."
"A towering cliff, worn down by countless trials, requires a re-examination of oneself. If not handled carefully, cracks will be left in the soul, irreparable. As you know, I have lived in this world for over six thousand years, and it was three thousand seven hundred years ago that I co-founded Liyue with the immortals. Even the rock that the vortex cannot break will be worn down by the erosion of time."
"Lord Rock King, I've always convinced myself that the day when cracks appear hasn't come yet. Until one drizzly day, as I strolled through the harbor, I overheard a merchant praising his subordinate: 'You've fulfilled your duty. Now, go and rest.'"
"—At that time, I stood for a long time among the passing crowds, constantly asking myself: Have I completed my duty...? When will we meet again, my old friends? But when I began to consider whether I should step down from my divine position... I realized that I still had many reasons why I could not leave. Is Liyue, the land where I walk with the gods, ready to enter the next era? I must create an opportunity to observe carefully before making a decision."
Zhongli sighed deeply and said in a heavy tone.
"Now you have seen that your people are ready to enter a new era, and you can retire with peace of mind."
Zhao Chuan raised his hand, and a burst of fire appeared before his eyes.
The flames slowly unfolded, transforming into a rectangular prism. The flames in the center gradually faded, revealing images of people praying for the Rock King Emperor's blessing.
"My power comes from the people, and the stronger the people's control, the stronger I am."
Zhao Chuan looked at Zhong Li, who had fallen silent, and said.
"I am the Demon God of all, born from wishes, and gathered the wishes of all the people of Liyue Harbor for nearly a hundred years, and came here to fulfill these wishes."
He then demonstrated everything he had seen in his dream and his powers, except for the yin-yang combination.
"It turns out there are so many separations and deaths in the world. But I have noticed them all. However, these are all arrangements of fate, and I dare not interfere with them all."
Zhongli put his hands behind his back and pondered the scene in the firelight in the sky.
"Your birth today is a matter of destiny. Since it is destined that you will be the one to fulfill the remaining duties, Liyue may be a better fit."
Zhongli looked at Zhao Chuan and said meaningfully.
"Well, let me take responsibility for the remaining wishes in this mortal world."
Zhao Chuan looked at his hands, then clenched them and said.
"However, your title of Demon God of All People is a bit too awkward. Let me think, since you were born to fulfill wishes... and listen to the blessings of the world... let's call you the Demon God of Blessings."
Zhongli raised his arm and said in a deep voice.
"Thank you for bestowing this name upon me, Lord Zhongli."
Zhao Chuan respectfully clasped his hands together and said.
