Dotore from Genshin Impact is my teacher

"The Traveler is in the largest tent. I have to go on patrol. You can go by yourself." Feng Quan pointed to the main tent, then left.

"Ah."

outside the main tent

Kong was stopped by the guards, who explained, "Please hand over your sword to us for safekeeping; it's for security reasons."

Chen Xi's languid voice came: "No need, let him bring his sword in."

The guard hesitated, "But sir..."

His tone hardened, as if he were angry that the guard had disobeyed his orders: "Listen to me, you don't need to sheathe his sword."

After some internal struggle, the guard decided to listen to him and replied, "Yes."

帐内

Chen Xi sat on the edge of the bed, her face pale. She was wearing only a thin shirt that clung to her body, making her look rather thin and frail. She looked as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind. Her sword was on the sword rack, and she had deep dark circles under her eyes. She looked much more haggard than before.

He slightly raised his eyelids to look at the empty space: "The traveler needs something from me?"

His transformation was so drastic that Kong couldn't believe it: "Are you really the Traveler?"

Chen Xi yawned, his face showing signs of fatigue: "Could it be that there's another traveler? I haven't been feeling well lately, I hope you're not offended."

"Where is he?"

"Who? You've come here looking for your sister?" Chen Xi thought Kong was asking about Yingmei.

"Where have you locked up Manyo's friends?"

"It's a bit cold. Kind traveler, could you please bring me some clothes?" Chen Xi pointed to the Fools' uniform hanging on the coat rack. Kong took the uniform down and walked to the bedside, draping it over Chen Xi's shoulders.

"Go ahead."

"He can't be released until the Eye Hunt Order is lifted. I've set up a restriction so he can't leave the camp. Even if you know which tent he's in, it's useless."

The bladeless sword was pointed at Chen Xi's throat: "Quickly release the restriction!"

The activated rock shield shook the bladeless sword away. Chen Xi got up, grabbed Kong, and pinned his hands to the bed. A rope appeared in his hand and tied Kong's hands together.

"It can't be lifted unless the Eye Hunting Order is abolished; otherwise, he'll just be throwing his life away if he goes out."

"...Never easily trust or underestimate any executive."

I casually put my arm around Sora's waist. No wonder he's the protagonist, his waist is so thin, I could wrap my arm around it with one hand. Sora's waist is like a deadly blade; I wanted to touch it again, but wouldn't he think I'm a pervert? I'll wait for the "scholar" to come back and touch him; he's so nice, he'll definitely agree to let me touch him, even if he's a bit useless.

"Take me to meet your new friends. The area outside is full of my people, so don't make any sudden moves..."

Chen Xi revealed a villainous smile as he escorted Kong out of the main tent. The group of people surrounded by the Fools' soldiers breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that Kong was unharmed. He glanced around; there were quite a few people present. He had thought Kong would act alone.

"Everyone's here. Let me see if there's anyone who slipped through the net."

Chen Xi activated his senses and detected that Maple Leaf and his friend were hiding in a tent, observing everything.

"I never imagined that the Knight of Honor, the great hero who saved Liyue, would be captured by me. He killed many of our men. Brothers, don't you think he should pay with his life?"

"Pay with your life! Pay with your life!"

"Pay with your life! Pay with your life!"

...The foolish soldiers raised their weapons and petitioned.

Paimon was so anxious that he spun around in circles, wanting to rush to his rescue, but was stopped by Hokuto and could do nothing. Thinking of the trip he had taken with Sora, and the sweet flower-stuffed chicken Sora made for him... tears involuntarily streamed down his face.

"Sora, wuwuwuwu..."

"You bastard, you pilgrim! Why did you kill him?!"

Chen Xi said in an extremely cold tone: "A life for a life, that's only right and proper."

Little Paimon kept crying, "Waaaaah... Empty..."

In fact, Chen Xi didn't really want to kill Kong; he was just testing whether Fengyuan Manye would come out to take the blow for him.

"Kaedehara Manyo, aren't you coming out yet? I'm about to make my move!"

Chen Xi pulled everyone into the dream beforehand and changed the setting that dying in the dream would also result in death in reality. Instead, dying in the dream would only cause them to wake up in reality without any harm.

His cunning nature was unleashed, and a demon-headed sword appeared in his hand. Due to the pressure he exerted, Sora could only kneel on one knee. Just as the demon-headed sword was about to be swung at Sora, Kaedehara Manyo activated his wind element and used his sword to block Sora's path.

The moment the two knives clashed, there was a crisp "clang," followed by a series of metallic scraping sounds. The process was brief, but the sounds were very powerful.

Chen Xi didn't use his full strength at all; if he had, Kaedehara Manyo wouldn't have been able to withstand his sword, and the blade would have broken.

(The ghost-head dagger is a type of cold weapon. It is heavy, with a ghost-head carved on the hilt, and is extremely sharp, capable of cutting through gold and jade. It has a unique rounded edge on the back and is often decorated with other distinctive designs.)

“Not bad, your courage is commendable. He’s a good partner. You can leave now.” As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding scenery shattered like a broken mirror.

Back to reality, Kong's hands, which had been tied behind his back, were untied, and the group lay neatly on the beds that Chen Xi had arranged for them, one for each person.

————Not part of the main text————

All human organs have self-protection mechanisms, so why can people still engage in self-harm or even suicide?

While the brain protects organs, it also bears more pain. Self-harm causes the release of substances that produce new pleasure, temporarily relieving the pain.

In addition, some mental illnesses can cause changes in the brain's response to certain stimuli. Humans naturally possess a survival instinct, which is what you referred to as the protective mechanism for organs and the body. However, humans also possess a death instinct. Everyone has the instinct and impulse for self-destruction; this tendency is present in everyone, but most are suppressed by the survival instinct. However, some people, due to external factors or physical reasons, let their survival instinct take over, leading to suicidal behavior.

People who contemplate suicide or self-harm are not entirely devoid of the will to live. They often give relatively obvious signals to ask for help, even if they don't explicitly express it as a plea for help. This is their survival instinct at work. So, when you encounter someone expressing suicidal thoughts, please don't assume that just because they want to die, you should support their death or provide them with methods of suicide.

Please remember that his expression means he is still crying for help, and his brain is still trying to protect him. If you mock and distrust him at this time, and urge him to die, thus aiding his eventual suicide, then what you are doing is murder. If you are too lazy to help, you don't have to help; if you don't want to see, you don't have to see. There is no need to make a very subjective judgment about someone else's suffering and then become a murderer.
