The Lost People of Teyvat

Chapter 348 The Dream Ends
"I feel like this is it! There must be something filling underneath!"

Ying rubbed her hands, with an expectant look on her face, she swung the shovel towards the grave with force, not looking tired at all.

"Fortunately, this is a dream, otherwise we would have been unable to dig long ago."

Ye Lan exhaled, stood up and pounded his waist, then looked back at the densely packed empty graves that had been opened behind him: "Ying, are you still counting how many graves we have dug?"

"I stopped counting after it exceeded 300,000."

Ying stuck the shovel into the ground, shook her head, and began to look for the next target - it was obvious that this grave was also empty.

"But I roughly know how many graves there are here."

"Oh? How much?"

Ye Lan was curious.

"One thousand seven hundred and thirty-five million four hundred and thirty-five thousand seven hundred and thirteen."

Ying's tone was firm.

"How did you know?"

"Tian Feng told me that the Holy Spirit Empire has 1,735,435,713 people, so I guess there should be this many tombs here."

"We've only dug half of it."

Ye Lan sighed when he heard this and looked up at the gray sky: "Ying, how much time do you think has passed outside now?"

"Time in dreams is meaningless. We may have been in dreams for decades, but the outside world is just a moment." Ying replied, looking at Ye Lan with some surprise: "But I didn't expect that you were also counting. When did you start?"

"When you have memorized 270,000 of them."

Ye Lan glanced at her and twitched the corner of her mouth: "If I knew you would give up after thirty thousand times, I wouldn't have remembered it for so long."

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time the next moment.

"Have you chosen your next target?"

Ying pulled out a shovel and looked at the graves that still stretched as far as the eye could see, as if she was picking out the ones she liked better, but these graves were exactly the same and there was no difference between them.

"Let's take this one. I don't think it makes any difference. Maybe Tianfeng's location keeps changing. Maybe we have dug up the last one..."

Ye Lan randomly pointed to the nearest one, walked up to it with a shovel in hand, and fell down habitually without any expectations. A light "ding" sound and clear feedback from her hand made her swallow back the rest of her words.

She looked at the grave in front of her in surprise. After a moment of shock and confusion, a ripple of excitement and surprise finally appeared in her eyes. She turned her head to look at Ying and raised the shovel in her hand again: "Ying! Ying! This one has something filling! Bah! I dug up Tianfeng!"

The two shovels immediately began to fly up and down. The gray soil did not cause any hindrance. The shovels cleanly scooped up the soil, threw it aside, and then disappeared silently. At the same time, the gray sky gradually became clear, and more than 1.7 billion tombstones also turned into sand, disappearing in the wind. The gray earth faded away, and mountains, rivers and vitality appeared.

Neither Ying nor Ye Lan noticed the changes around them. They just dug down quickly until a black coffin made of some strange wood came into their sight.

The two women looked at each other with excited smiles on their faces. They simultaneously thrust their shovels towards the coffin and, working together, lifted the coffin lid up and flew away.

"Tianfeng, it's time to get up!"

……

When the Suzaku's figure disappeared, Chen Tianfeng was still staring with his eyes wide open, as if he had heard some extraordinary and shocking secret, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

So that's how it is... He let out a light breath, took one last look in the direction of the high priest, and slowly closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he realized that his five senses and six consciousnesses as a human being had returned at this moment - the new soul finally returned to the new body.

It’s still good to have a complete soul and body. I’m finally not in a half-dead state.

Chen Tianfeng sighed, and at the same time felt that he was lying in a dark and cool place. The air was not turbid, but very fresh - it was the coffin that He made with the trunk of the World Tree after He bit off the World Tree.

It’s worthy of being made of the World Tree. It’s so comfortable to lie on.

Chen Tianfeng secretly praised, stretched out his hand, and was about to carefully open the coffin lid, but with a "bang", he watched the coffin lid of his beloved World Tree being violently lifted up and blown away.

At the same time, two familiar voices rang out: "Tian Feng, it's time to get up!" "Fuck! My coffin!"

The sky is bright.

Chen Tianfeng sat up suddenly, subconsciously turned out the coffin, picked up the coffin lid, and checked it with concern to see if there was any damage caused by the violent opening of the box.

The coffin is made of the trunk of the World Tree. It is the only one in Teyvat. If it breaks, there is no place to repair it.

Fortunately, the material of the World Tree is tough enough, and except for the teeth of a certain snake, the two shovels cannot hurt it.

Chen Tianfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and then he came back to his senses. As if he finally remembered something, his expression changed slightly and then quickly returned to normal. He looked at the two women who were looking at him and smiled: "Ying, Yelan, long time no see."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Ye Lan nodded, looked at him, then looked at the coffin lid he was holding, then turned his gaze to Ying and said seriously, "See, I told you to always have a shovel with you, right?"

"Yeah, that's right."

Ying nodded and agreed: "Maybe in two days, he will lie in the coffin again, and I don't know where he will bury himself."

"you……"

Chen Tianfeng was stunned for a moment, and inexplicably felt that the relationship between the two women had improved a lot. Compared with before, the difference could almost be described as worlds apart. But when he thought about it carefully, he felt it was very reasonable.

He shut up, closed the coffin lid, and put the coffin away. Then he glanced at the surrounding scenery, finally stopping at a mountain peak, with nostalgia in his black eyes.

That is the Holy Mountain, the Holy Spirit Empire, the Seventh Holy Mountain.

"I had a very comfortable sleep and had quite a few dreams."

Chen Tianfeng smiled, stretched out his hands to the two women at the same time, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's time to end this farce."

Ying and Ye Lan looked at each other, and without hesitation, they reached out their hands, one on the left and one on the right, and grabbed Chen Tianfeng's hands.

The next moment, the figures of the three people disappeared at the same time.

……

"It's meaningless. How long can you hold on?"

The giant snake looked down at the two little gods with indifferent eyes: "Give up, the turnaround you are expecting will never happen, and the reinforcements you are waiting for will never... come..."

His words suddenly stopped, and under the nervous gaze of the Great Mercy Tree King and Nashida, his eyes, which contained no other emotions except coldness and greed, slowly closed. When he opened them again, there was a gentle smile.

"It's over, you two, thank you for your hard work."

"What tricks do you want to play again?"

Nashida stared at the giant snake warily. She obviously did not believe its lies and was even more afraid that this was another conspiracy of the monster.

The Great Compassion Tree King patted her head gently, took a step forward, raised his head, and looked at the giant snake: "Please give me proof."

The giant snake Chen Tianfeng, or more precisely, the god Chen Tianfeng, nodded slightly, glanced at Nashida inconspicuously, and said the code they had agreed on: "Little Grass God Nashida's reincarnation remedial lesson plan."

"You're finally back."

The Great Compassionate Tree King finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

After the incident at the Xumi World Tree, the Great Compassionate Tree King made an agreement with Chen Tianfeng that he would be responsible for holding back the only remaining instinctive divine body of Chen Tianfeng, and after his soul revived, he would take over the divine body, completing the complete resurrection of the human body, divine body, and soul, and completely solving the problem.

——And by the way, give Nashida an impressive remedial lesson.

"Make-up plan? Wait! What does that mean?!"

Nashida's eyes widened. She looked at the giant snake, then at the Great Kindness Tree King. Her expression gradually became aggrieved, like a young god who had only lived for five hundred years.
