Chapter 374 Our story has not begun yet (5k)

Ying captured some information from Wang Daoyi's words, and a trace of doubt and questioning appeared on his delicate face.

"And Anton and the others didn't say anything about the Ninth Company in the mine before!"

"Dao Yi, how much do you know?"

"What are you and them hiding from me?"

Maybe it was because Anton and others chose to die before, which had such a huge impact on Ying.

So after discovering that Wang Daoyi had the tendency to be a Riddler again, Ying was so excited that he asked a lot of questions one after another.

But after the question was asked, Ying felt a little regretful. She felt that her tone just now was a little wrong, as if she was torturing a prisoner instead of asking a friend: "Sorry, I'm a little excited."

Seeing the slight disappointment in Ying's eyes and the apology on her face,

"It's okay." Wang Daoyi shook his head slowly, not caring about Ying's emotional loss, and said, "If you want to know, I can tell you part of it."

His bright eyes lit up, and he looked at Wang Daoyi, with the words "hurry up" written on his face.

Wang Dao didn't talk nonsense and started to answer Ying's previous questions:

"First of all, 'my believers', as you can imagine, I have already embarked on the path of God, and it is normal for some believers."

"The second is the 'Ninth Company'. I have read the files of the Strata Abyss. Naturally, I know that the Fools came here to help investigate. The Ninth Company is the Fools responsible for investigating the dark army."

"In the end, it's about how many things 'we' have hidden from you. I can only say that it's a lot."

"But at the same time, we also have many doubts about your existence."

Wang Daoyi said in a calm and emotionless voice as much as possible.

Ying, on the other hand, also tried his best to accept this information with impersonal thinking.

There was too much information contained in these short words. For a moment, Ying frowned, unable to understand the words.

What does it mean to hide a lot, and what does it mean to have doubts?

Before Ying could continue to think and understand the information just now,

Wang Daoyi continued: "Do you remember the question you once asked me?"

"The question I asked you?" Ying was stunned for a moment, then quickly flipped through the memories in her mind, and quickly found the corresponding information, "You mean, I asked you whether you have known me for a long time?"

Wang Dao nodded,

At that time in Inazuma, Ying completed Wang Daoyi's commission, and Wang Daoyi promised to pay Ying. In the end, Ying chose a question as reward.

[Dao Yi, actually, you knew about my existence before we met outside Qingquan Town, right? 】

This was the question Ying asked at that time,

At that time, Wang Daoyi was not prepared. Although the answer he gave was affirmative, he did not give a more specific answer after the affirmative answer.

There were some memories in Wang Daoyi's eyes, and he didn't know what scene he was recalling: "You asked me if I knew about your existence before we met, and I gave you an affirmative answer."

Ying nodded and recalled the scene at that time: "Well, I remember, you said that was not Zhongli's guidance."

"Yes, that was not the emperor's guidance, but I knew your existence from the beginning." Wang Daoyi suddenly stopped and turned to look at Ying, "The man who crossed the sea of ​​stars, the son of man, the blood relative of the prince of the abyss, Ying, I’ve known of your existence from the beginning.”

Ying also stopped and looked at Wang Daoyi with a very subtle look. She had a hunch that what Wang Daoyi said to her next might be something very, very important.

On the other side, Paimon was floating in the air, looking at the two people looking at each other. He didn't know what was going on, but he held his breath and didn't dare to disturb them in any way.

Next to Wang Daoyi, Nasida, who had hidden her figure, also looked at Wang Daoyi with curious eyes, wondering what secrets Wang Daoyi would reveal.

"I am also from outside the world!"

One of Wang Daoyi's biggest secrets was revealed by him.

"?!!!!" Ying's originally calm expression changed instantly, and a touch of disbelief appeared in her eyes, "This is...impossible..."

She didn't know what to say for a moment.

Under the distorted light, Nasida was also stunned for a moment. He, who was refused access by the World Tree, also did not know this secret.

There was only Paimon, floating in mid-air, looking silly.

"Does Zhongli know about this?" After a long time, Ying finally asked this question tentatively.

Wang Daoyi raised his eyebrows: "Of course I know that I was once the emperor's dependent, and most of my past information was transparent to the emperor."

"What about Wendy and Shadow?"

"They don't know that after meeting the emperor, my strange aura was covered up by the emperor, so you are the second person to know."

Well, Nacida is a god. Paimon doesn't know what she is, so Ying is naturally the second person to know.

"Huh, where are you from? Like me, did you cross the sea of ​​stars and come here?"

Perhaps because he felt that he had found the same kind, the shock in Ying's eyes faded and was replaced by a ray of excitement.

"Sorry, the way I arrived is different from yours. In other words, I don't know how I arrived. I'm still investigating the reason."

"That's it, okay, don't worry, I will help you protect this secret, um, I will also help you investigate together!" Ying was not shocked by Wang Daoyi's answer at all, but looked full of energy,

It seemed that she really regarded Wang Daoyi as a similar person.

Think about it, she came into this world with her brother,

As an outsider, she is lonely no matter how the people and things on her journey affect her. Paimon, her only companion, can only reduce this feeling of loneliness, but cannot completely eliminate it.

Therefore, when Wang Daoyi revealed his identity, the sense of identity brought by long-term loneliness instantly occupied Ying's heart.

In her opinion, Wang Daoyi and herself are the same existence.

Hearing Ying's words, Wang Daoyi also smiled: "Ha, then. Please."

The main reason why he suddenly had a showdown with Ying was because Nasida said that Ying was a destined person, and she was embodying the encounters and entanglements of countless people.

On the one hand, he wanted to wait until Ying arrived in Sumeru, and then use the power of fate between him and Ying to "encounter" and "entangle" to light up the sixth life star in one fell swoop.

On the other hand, he also wanted to see if Ying could help him find out the mystery of his soul penetration.

[Did a blue exclamation mark appear above my head, and then a commission was formed and accepted? 】

An idea flashed through his mind, and Wang Daoyi couldn't help but laugh.

However, with the emergence of this idea, some strange thoughts were born in Wang Daoyi's mind.

[If Ying is the destined person, then her fate in Mondstadt, Liyue, and Daoqi, despite my intervention, has been completed almost exactly. 】

[As for Xumi, although I don’t know what her fate is, I must have destroyed it, so I need to re-arrange her destiny in Xumi. 】

As this thought became clearer and clearer, the light in Wang Dao's eyes became brighter and brighter.

On the side, Ying looked at Wang Daoyi and had a strange premonition for no reason.

It seems like someone is plotting against her!

"Daoyi, Daoyi, what are you thinking about? Why are you distracted again?" Ying stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Wang Daoyi.

Come back to your senses,

Wang Dao looked at Ying and shook his head slightly. Of course he would not say that he was thinking about how to arrange your trip to Xumi.

So, he casually made an excuse: "I was thinking, since you don't want to see the fools of the ninth company die, you might as well go to Ningguang and tell them these things. If Ningguang is willing to give the order, these people will be killed." If the fools are captured alive and used in negotiations with their superiors, these people might survive."

As for the price that will be paid for surviving, that is not something Wang Daoyi needs to consider.

Ying's eyes lit up, yes, Wang Daoyi was unwilling to take action, but she still knew Ning Guang,

With Ningguang taking action, even if these fools would become prisoners if they came out together, at least their lives would be saved, and it would not be considered a betrayal of faith!

Thinking about it, Ying showed a grateful look at Wang Daoyi. She thought that Wang Daoyi was distracted just now because he was trying to think of this solution for her: "Daoyi, thank you so much."

Wang Daoyi scratched his head in embarrassment, then shook his head slightly at Ying: "It's nothing, it's just a trivial matter."

"By the way, when are you going to Xumi?" Wang Daoyi changed the subject before Ying could continue to thank him.

Ying was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect Wang Dao to suddenly change the topic, but she thought about it and quickly answered: "Xumi? We have to wait for a while, after the Hai Lantern Festival, and then we have to go to Daozhu to attend the ceremony. Cai Festival, after the Rongcai Festival is over, I will have time to set off for Xumi."

Wang Daoyi nodded secretly. Although the timeline was destroyed a lot by himself, it was still generally correct.

"What's wrong, does Daoyi have a commission to entrust to me?"

Ying still remembered that when he was preparing to go to Inazuma, Wang Daoyi gave him a commission and handed a crystal to Yae Shenzi of Narukami Taisha Shrine.

And now Wang Daoyi asked himself whether he had a similar commission about going to Xumi.

"Well, that's not the case. I'm just asking. Our story may not begin until you go to Xumi."

Ying frowned, why did Dao Yi start to say something incomprehensible again?

"What do you mean? Our story? Haven't we known each other for a long time?"

She didn't understand the meaning of Wang Dao's words at all.

"Ha, our meeting happened a long time ago, but our entanglement has not yet begun."

Wang Daoyi said something without thinking, and then changed the subject: "Oh, by the way, I may also go to the Rongcai Festival when the time comes. I don't know if the Inazuma Festival is fun or not."

"Daoyi." Ying suddenly said in a deep voice.

"Huh?" Wang Daoyi looked at her.

Then he saw a trace of speechlessness in Ying's eyes: "Are you so abrupt in changing the topic?"

For a moment, Wang Daoyi felt a little embarrassed: "Ha"

The way he changed the topic did seem a bit embarrassing.

"Ahem, let's not talk anymore. The camp is coming, so I'll leave first. Goodbye." Seeing that the camp was already in front of him, for fear of being embarrassed again, Wang Dao rolled up a golden light and disappeared in front of Ying's eyes.

Ying frowned slightly. Just now, why did he feel a strange shadow in Dao Yi's golden light?

However, he soon thought that Wang Daoyi was always weird, so Ying also put the matter behind him and took Paimon back to the camp.

"Hey, traveler, where is His Excellency Wang Daoyi?" After returning to the camp, the resident Huishan Department employee found that Wang Daoyi was missing and couldn't help asking.

"He left, didn't you see the golden light?"

"Ah, maybe I was negligent just now. I really didn't see it." The Huishan Department employee scratched his head in embarrassment, and then asked tentatively, "You just went to see the Fools. How was it?"

Ying looked at the other party strangely, and then remembered the position issue Wang Daoyi said,

It was immediately clear that these employees of Huishan Hall were on the side of Liyue and did not want to save those fools.

With a strange look in his eyes, Ying seemed to understand Wang Daoyi's thoughts, and said no more words to save people: "Nothing, I'm going to tell Ningguang what's going on here, and suggest that Ningguang arrest those fools."

Arrest him?

The Huishan Department employee was stunned for a moment, and then looked happy.

"Catch it, yes, just catch it."

For them, it doesn't matter whether they clean them up or arrest them, as long as they don't rescue them.

Seeing the happy expressions of the Huishan Department employees, Ying was a little silent, and felt even more deeply about Wang Daoyi's 'position'.

However, she quickly regained her composure and continued to rest. After a while, she had to set off again to explore the rocky abyss and help draw the map.

the other side,

The golden light fell next to the statue of the Seven Heavens on the ground of the rocky abyss.

The figures of Wang Daoyi and Nasida were revealed.

"How is it? Do you want to continue shopping?" Wang Daoyi asked.

Nasida shook her head: "No, I have asked Morax for advice, and I have seen the customs and customs of Liyue. I even met this traveler. I am done. Let's go back to Xumi."

After all, he is still in power, unlike the one who is as free as the wind.

After being out for a few days, Nasida already started to miss Xumi.

"That's it, let's go back. By the way, I almost forgot to tell you something." Wang Daoyi suddenly remembered something.

Nasida looked at him, curious: "What's the matter?"

Wang Daoyi looked embarrassed and looked away with some embarrassment: "A few days ago, the doctor came over to bargain with me over some slices."

"Huh?" Nasida straightened her face and stared at Wang Daoyi.

Wang Daoyi became even more embarrassed. He coughed and quickly explained: "Ahem, don't look at me like that. I didn't agree to any of his excessive requests."

"Then what did you promise him?" Nasida looked a little helpless in her eyes, and was very dissatisfied with Wang Daoyi's behavior of trading with the enemy privately.

This is not the first time that Wang Daoyi and the doctor have cooperated. They have cooperated before. However, Naxida had already forgiven Wang Daoyi for the previous incident and never remembered the old score.

But now, he and Wang Daoyi are one and the same, and Wang Daoyi's transaction with the doctor without his consent is another type of infringement.

It's equivalent to starting a company with your friend, but your friend cooperates with the management of a rival company without consulting you. How disappointing this is.

Nasida looked at Wang Daoyi now with this look.

Disappointed, very disappointed,

Of course, we don’t know how much of these disappointments are real and how much are just feigned.

"I promised him that after everything is over, I will give up the Thunder God's Heart, and he will give up the skirmishers."

Wang Daoyi told the doctor about his deal.

Nacida frowned: "Is that all?"

"Ahem, of course, the additional condition is that the doctor will give up some sabotage actions. You know, fools may not be able to do good things, but they can definitely do bad things."

Nasida still stared at Wang Daoyi with big eyes, which made Wang Daoyi even more embarrassed.

for a long time,

Only then did Nasida put away her fierce eyes: "Dao Yi, next time, it's absolutely not allowed."

"We are already bound together. If there is any big matter, you should discuss it with me instead of making your own decision. This is not good."

In fact, Nasida didn't care about the cooperation between Wang Daoyi and the doctor.

He believed that Wang Daoyi would not betray His interests, and even more believed that Wang Daoyi would not harm Him.

What he is afraid of is Wang Daoyi making decisions alone.

It's okay if it's a good thing, but what if it's a bad thing?

If something happens in the desert, it can be solved only by the self-sacrifice of a god.

Wang Daoyi also made his own decision without consulting him and chose to sacrifice himself.

If this happens, Nacida will feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Seeing the worry deep in Nasida's eyes, Wang Daoyi nodded slightly: "Okay, I will discuss any major issues with Nasida in the future!"

Nasida looked at Wang Daoyi, raised her hand, and extended a little finger: "Let's pull the hook!"

Wang Dao was stunned for a moment, then smiled, squatted down slightly, stretched out his hand, and hooked Nasida's little hand with his little finger: "Let's pull the hook!"

Seemingly childlike behavior,

Indeed Wang Dao’s initial promise to Nasida,

I think back then, in the Xumi Adventurers Association, this was how he made the simplest and first contract with Nasida.

That was the first time Nacida received goodwill from Wang Daoyi, and it was also the initial source of Nacida's trust in Wang Daoyi. After that, Wang Daoyi fulfilled his promise, which made Nacida full of trust in him.

Even Xumi's power to govern was willing to be shared with him.

Therefore, when Nasida wanted Wang Daoyi to really promise herself a very, very important thing, she only thought of this way and only believed in this way.

The little fingers of the two people were hooked together, and they were chanting: "Hang yourself with a hook and don't change for a hundred years. You must keep your word!"

Then they looked at each other and then slowly let go.

Take Nasida's little hand that wants to take it back,

Wang Daoyi looked ahead, as if nothing had happened.

"Let's go home."

A hint of joy flashed in Nacida's emerald-green pupils: "Well, go home."
