Inquirer of Teyvat

Chapter 776 The Age of Man
Wang Daoyi’s idea is actually very simple.
Now that the emperor has divided the ancient dragon's power,
Then don't worry about how he did it,

Don't worry about why the emperor didn't discuss it with him.
Because these have already happened, there is no use in worrying about it anymore.
You can’t mobilize the power of time to look back on everything, right?

Just as Zhongli understood Wang Daoyi, Wang Daoyi also understood Zhongli,
Their personalities look completely different, but they have one thing in common.

Then I will definitely do what I have decided to do.

Now that the emperor has decided to return the power to Dragon King Ruotuo, Wang Daoyi can no longer stop it.

Therefore, instead of dwelling on the past, it is better to care about the present first.

If cutting off authority hurts the emperor's roots, that's what matters.

"If there is really any serious damage, I can also make up for it."

Wang Dao said with sincere concern.

Feeling the concern of his 'younger son', Zhongli felt warm in his heart. He didn't tell Wang Daoyi in advance about cutting off his authority. It wasn't that he didn't trust Wang Daoyi, but that he believed in Wang Daoyi too much. He was very satisfied with Wang Daoyi. .

Only then did Dragon King Ruotu look at Zhongli: "What did you just say about who and who accompanied you? What do you mean?"

Ruotuo Dragon King also smiled: "I will go to you for a drink in a few days."

"Although the Hai Lantern Festival in the past was also lively, everyone liked to go to find immortals and pray for blessings. But now, everyone spends more time with their families..." Zhongli's eyes flickered slightly, not knowing what he was thinking, and finally sighed, "This It’s a good thing.”

Wang Daoyi's aura calmed down and he reached out to hold the teacup: "The Emperor must not do this again."

Of course, Liyue people are not white-eyed wolves either.

Now that Mandrill has Cang, he has also found Fa Nan, and Yan Xiao and others are there, so there is no shortage of people to talk to.

It is the most stupid approach to treat immortals, gods and humans as separate classes.

But Liyue is not only the Liyue of humans, but also the Liyue of immortals, the Liyue of gods, and the Liyue of everyone.

"..." Wang Daoyi was silent for a moment and decided to skip this topic, "The Sea Lantern Festival is approaching, what plans does the emperor have?"

Even if one day Liyue no longer needs his protection, he will be happy instead.
This shows that his people are truly self-reliant.

After a pause, Zhongli continued, "Lishui Dieshan and Xieyue Zhuyang have been changing their bodies to play in Liyue Port recently. I probably won't be able to find them on the day of the Hai Lantern Festival.
Liu...Xianyun also came to Liyue Port and took in a young disciple. He would have someone to accompany him during the Hai Lantern Festival.

Wang Daoyi looked at Zhongli, looking at the calm look in Zhongli's eyes, and said nothing for a long time.

Qixing understands very well that although the era of [human rule] has arrived,

Zhongli was stunned by the Dragon King's question, and then laughed dumbly: "Hahahaha, Ruotuo, I am no longer the God of Rock. Today is the age of humans. The companionship between people is the mainstream of this era. Today's sea During the Festival of Lights, people are willing to spend time with their families, which proves that my move to promote the era of human rule is correct."

Even in his more than 6,000 years of life, no one could rise from mortal to god like Wang Daoyi in only two years.

The arrival of [human rule] does not refute the past of [divine rule].

In his words, he had already forgotten what happened before.

This is also a trend that Zhongli wants to see.

Zhong Li also smiled: "Now that Ruo Tuo has returned and Fanan has been brought back by you, you will have the final say on what happens in the future."

Zhongli has always been the most enlightened monarch. He never cared that the people of Liyue forgot him, nor did he care that the people of Liyue no longer needed him.

After Wang Dao left,

"Don't worry, Fukalos did that because Fontaine's prophecy has been monitoring him, but I am different. I am older than him, more powerful than him, and have a more relaxed environment than him, so although the authority to cut the throne is It weakened me a little bit, but it didn’t shake my foundation.”

"Go, I'm fine here." Zhongli nodded to Wang Dao with a smile.

"Oh, since the emperor is fine, I will take my leave first." Wang Daoyi stood up, bowed his hands to Zhongli, and then looked at the Dragon King Ruotuo, "Next time the Dragon King comes to Wanmin Hall, I will treat you with fine wine. .”

The best way is to use the great stories of gods and ancestors to teach the new generation to strive for self-improvement.

Hearing what Zhongli said, Wang Daoyi was also in a daze.
Yes, compared to the previous Hai Lantern Festivals, this year’s Hai Lantern Festival seems to be a little more humane.

But the Xuanhe immortal statue will not affect the family reunion.

Ruotuo Dragon King was beside him and opened his mouth slightly, but in the end he didn't speak and just took a sip of wine.

Wang Daoyi cupped his hands again and turned to leave.

Ruotuo Dragon King looked at Zhongli and Wang Daoyi and couldn't understand what they were talking about.

As he spoke, Zhongli slowly sat up straight, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Wang Daoyi: "Although I have lost the authority of the throne, I am still Morax, the God of Contract, and the god of humans. I When I lead all the immortals to compete with Lu Liyue and drive out all the demons, I don’t have the authority of the God’s Throne.”

The little fish in Shen Yugu is also accompanied by the mountain owner. This year's Hai Lantern Festival, everyone will have someone to accompany them. "

"Ha, maybe this is the age of human beings. Home is when someone is with you." Wang Daoyi said with a smile.

Zhongli's meaning was very simple. The divine throne was originally unnecessary to him. Although cutting the divine throne caused him a little damage, it was completely unimportant.

"I have discussed with Ruotuo that the Hai Lantern Festival will be celebrated at the Rebirth Hall, and we will go out to visit friends after the festival."

The ancients said: When the family is harmonious, everything will be prosperous.

a long time,

Although Qixing has been promoting the arrival of [Government by Man], Liyue's rules are still within the framework set by the emperor.

Nowadays, people in Liyue are more willing to spend time with their families than seeking immortality. This is a sign of prosperity.

The implication is that he will really be a retired old man from now on.
However, Wang Dao could just listen to these words as soon as he felt like it. If someone really took it seriously and invaded Liyue, rock guns would still fall from the sky.

The temple at the foot of Tianheng Mountain is still full of incense.
But no matter how prosperous the incense was, it did not affect the sound of reading in the nearby academy.
The fairy statue at the Hai Lantern Festival pier is still there every year.

Since then, the inheritance has been endless, and the rule of people has been endless, which is the right way.

Listening to Zhongli’s long speech,
Ruotuo Dragon King felt that his brain was buzzing even though he was drunk.

"Stop, stop, stop reading, I don't understand." Ruotuo Dragon King looked like he couldn't bear it, and waved his hands vigorously, "Anyway, whatever you say is fine, we can be among the crowd without being gods. Live well."

Listening to Ruotuo Dragon King's wise and foolish words, Zhongli smiled and shook his head. What did his old friend not understand? He understood it too well.
He just doesn't care,

The only thing the Dragon King cares about is Morax.

Whether Liyue is ruled by humans or gods, it is the same to the Dragon King.

As long as His contract with Morax is not terminated,

So, this is Liyue that he is willing to protect.

As for whether the people of Liyue still remember him, it is not important to the Dragon King.

"You~"

Zhongli's sigh echoed in the small courtyard, and finally calmed down.

……

After leaving the Hall of Purity, Wang Daoyi returned to the main road of Feiyun Slope.
When it was noon, when it was time to eat, there were even more people on the street.

The shouts of the waiters at Xinyuexuan and Liuliting are like a battle. You suppress me, and I suppress you.
It was convenient for foreign tourists, who walked into the two hotels one after another and donated generously.

There were also tourists who had prepared a strategy, and endured the screams in their stomachs, and continued to move forward resolutely. Ahead was the direction of eating Huyan. They had all found out that the most delicious snacks in Liyue were at eating Huyan. The best restaurants are also eating at Huyan.

The coming and going of tourists did not affect Wang Daoyi’s pace.
Walking among the crowd, pedestrians passing by would subconsciously step aside for him.

All the way to Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, I saw Xingqiu with a tired face right at the door.

With his eyes lit up, Wang Daoyi approached.

"I was about to find you, and you came back so soon? Have you finished handling the business at Qiaoying Village?" Wang Daoyi patted Xingqiu's shoulder and said.

Xingqiu looked tired. He turned around and saw Wang Daoyi. He cheered up and said, "It's done. Thanks to Ying, otherwise it would have been troublesome." This was the first time Xingqiu took over Feiyun Chamber of Commerce in Qiaoying. The village's business, but he also knew that it was related to the livelihood of the entire Qiaoying Village tea farmers, so he did not dare to delay and worked overtime to finish it before the Hailantern Festival.

"Although the quality of tea this year has fluctuated slightly due to the influence of the mountains and rivers, it has stabilized at least. The tea farmers have not suffered much losses." As he spoke, a smile appeared on Xingqiu's tired face.

Wang Dao's eyes flashed slightly: "Can the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce resist?"

He has been to Qiaoying Village and knows that the quality of tea this year has dropped slightly. If the tea farmers do not suffer losses, it means that the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce that purchases the tea will suffer losses.

Xingqiu smiled: "Otherwise, why do you think I'm so tired? It's not to convince those old guys that our Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is making money in Liyue. We can't always make money. Where we should lose a little, we still have to lose a little. "

Saying that, Xingqiu smiled again: "It would be better if I was left idle because of this loss."

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't avoid it, he wouldn't want to do business matters. He might as well go on a heroic mission, that would be so much fun.

Seeing the 'smirk' on Xingqiu's face, Wang Daoyi felt that he might have a plan.

As one of the largest chambers of commerce in Liyue, how could the old guys of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce be so unstructured.

Maybe Xingqiu's concession of profits to the tea farmers would actually allow them to transfer more rights to Xingqiu.

In this era, a well-established young master of the chamber of commerce is obviously a very good investment target.

In addition, these old guys can definitely exchange the benefits transferred by Xingqiu for more benefits from Qixing.

Therefore, Xingqiu's plan to end his career in the chamber of commerce by losing money was obviously overthinking.

"Haha, good job." Wang Daoyi first praised, and then asked, "Is there anything else to do next? What are the plans for the Hai Lantern Festival?"

Xingqiu looked even more tired: "I still need to check Mondstadt's account book, the Lantern Festival... I just want to have a good rest, I'm afraid I won't be able to do much this year."

Mond's business was originally developed unexpectedly when Xingqiu wanted to go out for fun, so the old guys in the chamber of commerce left it to him to handle.

"...Okay, this year's Sea Lantern Festival is about kites, do you want me to prepare one for you?" Wang Daoyi patted Xingqiu's shoulder sympathetically.

He can completely understand what the old man from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce thinks.

Although Xingqiu has an older brother,
But there is no way, Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is too rich,
In addition, Feiyun Chamber of Commerce has developed rapidly in recent years and has a large amount of business in other countries.
The existence of Xingxing Qiu was suddenly highlighted.

The second young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is a man of profound knowledge and a top choice in everything he does. He is also the holder of the Eye of God, and he has an irreversible relationship with a certain god.
Where can you find such a good leader?
All factors have resulted in the current "tragic situation" in Xingqiu.

"Kite..." Xingqiu hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "Forget it, the Chamber of Commerce will prepare it on its own, I guess it's the Chamber of Commerce's responsibility too."

After Xingqiu finished speaking, A Xu, who had been behind him, also said: "The young master is right. This event uses Fontaine's mechanical devices. When we first came into contact with it, it was through our family's business channels. It was later transferred to the General Affairs Department, and our family really prepared a large number of kites."

Feiyun Chamber of Commerce never misses any business opportunity.

While the General Affairs Department was still getting in touch with the kite-flying machinery, the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce had already prepared the materials and templates for the kite.

"Alas..." Xingqiu sighed slightly, "I don't need it here, but I can help Chongyun prepare some materials and let him make one by himself."

Wang Daoyi nodded sympathetically: "I understand, then I will contact him later. You can go and rest first. Judging from your appearance, you are a little overtired."

Xingqiu nodded, said nothing, and took A Xu back to the Chamber of Commerce.

After Xingqiu left, Wang Daoyi sighed and said, "This is the price of growing up. It's too scary."

When we first met four years ago, Xingqiu was still a young chivalrous warrior.
But now, he looks like a young master of the Chamber of Commerce who bears the fate of his family.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I don't know whether this change is bad or good." Wang Dao turned around and left.

……

Leaving Feiyun Chamber of Commerce,

As Wang Dao walked in the market at the dock, several familiar figures suddenly appeared in front of him.

It was Ying, Paimon, and several immortals.

Wang Dao immediately became interested and moved closer, his ears twitching slightly.
"Well, since it is a good thing, then there is no problem for the two of us. However, how should we act as a robber?" The middle-aged man with a patch of green hair on his head said,
In Wang Daoyi's sight, this was the incarnation of the True Monarch who cut the moon and built the sun.

And next to him, the red-haired man with glasses is Lord Lishui Dieshan.

These two people, for some reason, appeared in Liyue in the form of ordinary people.

"We don't need to actually rob, we just need to show off." said the man with red hair and glasses.

The green-haired middle-aged man immediately retorted: "How can that be done? If someone sees through it, wouldn't it be a disservice?"

Wang Dao was very interested when he heard it and came closer: "You two, what are you arguing about? You might as well tell me."

"Who is it?" The two true monarchs looked at each other for a moment, then turned to look behind them. When they saw it was Wang Daoyi, their expressions relaxed, "It turns out to be the Master of Mysteries."

Wang Daoyi cupped his hands and said, "Just call me Daoyi. What are you two doing? And Ying and Paimon, could they be doing something interesting again?"

"It turned out to be Dao Yi. It scared me. I thought I had been discovered." Paimeng patted his chest.

Wang Daoyi raised his eyebrows with a curious look on his face: "I just heard you talking about robbers. What, who are you going to pretend to be robbers to rob? Ningguang?"

"Ah, no, it's like this..."

[Paimeng told Wang Daoyi about the lion dance boy Jiaming and his father, and briefly outlined their plan to help the father and son reconcile. 】

After hearing their plan, Wang Dao had a smile on his face.
The plan is good, but it sounds a little wrong to use Liu Yun to borrow the master-disciple relationship between Feng Zhenjun and Shen He to activate the admiration between father and son.

Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng is an immortal, and her upbringing of Shen He and Gan Yu is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Think about it, what was Shen He used to eat when he first came to Liyue Port?
Herbs.

From a mortal perspective, it is simply abuse of a female child.

"So, is this to reconcile Jiaming with his father?" Wang Daoyi nodded slightly.

Paimeng looked at Wang Daoyi expectantly: "How about it, Daoyi wants to come with us?"

Wang Daoyi immediately shook his head: "I would be somewhat interested in pretending to be a robber to rob Ningguang, but I'd better forget about this kind of helping others."

Wang Daoyi felt that if there was still a possibility of reconciliation between father and son, then what they lacked might be an opportunity to sit down and have a good chat.

Generally speaking, conflicts between father and son mostly come from each other's perceived inability to communicate.

The father believed that the child was rebellious and embarked on an unsafe path.
The child thinks that his father is old-fashioned and cannot accept strange things.

But in fact, as long as the father is willing to understand the path chosen by the child and the child is willing to show his father what he has achieved,

They can always reconcile in the end.

After all, there is no real hatred between father and son.

The father just wants his children to live a better life.
The child also hopes that his father can support the path he chooses.

However, Ying and Paimon's actions still made Wang Daoyi feel a little emotional.

In the past few Lantern Festivals, Ying and Paimon were mostly busy with festival-related matters.

But this time, they paid attention to a family conflict.

I have to say, this is really more 'human' than before.

Family conflicts and neighborhood harmony are the most basic issues of "Government by Man".

It doesn't matter if the whole family is restless, but it is a big problem if every family is restless.
Peace in the whole family is nothing. If every family is in peace, that is great governance.

The traveler's attention shifted from 'everyone' to 'little family', which may be one of the changes that occurred after [Rule of Man].
