"Amber, Lisa, and Xiangling, these three are my friends. You have helped them all, so I will forgive you for being rude three times. You have already used one just now."
Hearing that this was the reason why Zhong Rui pardoned him, Sai Nuo was first surprised that they actually had a spiritual friend, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Amber and Lisa were both helped by Kelai because of his affairs, while Xiangling was troubled by the Gilded Brigade. Some time ago, Sano was called over by Tinari to help her solve those troubles.
"There is another reason. The group of sages from the Order Academy are trying to get rid of you with my help, because as the Gale Disciplinary Officer, you have seriously hindered their plan."
"The plan of the Order?"
Sano subconsciously remembered the investigation he had just started some time ago. Because he accidentally noticed that various aspects of the experimental data were not quite right, he fulfilled his rights as a gale discipline officer and found the leader of the project to investigate.
Unexpectedly, the other party turned out to be the great sage Azar of the Order Academy. Later, when he was about to conduct an in-depth investigation, Liyue's envoy arrived.
Subsequently, he was also forced to go to Liyue Port by Azar with the handwriting of Lord Grass God.
"I have no interest in becoming a pawn for those smart fools. Besides, no matter what their purpose is, this behavior really angers me."
Zhong Rui took out the handwriting of the Grass God that was handed over by the Sumeru envoy. Although this thing with strong grass elemental power looked very much like something written by the Grass God.
But he knew that Nasida was imprisoned by the Order, so naturally he would not take this handwriting seriously.
Sai Nuo looked at Zhong Rui. Although he was very concerned about Zhong Rui's plan for the Order, he also knew his current status and was not qualified to ask questions to the other party.
"Don't you want those prisoners? OK, I can give them to you."
Originally, Zhong Rui had no intention of getting involved in Xumi's affairs, but those stupid sages were plotting against him, so Zhong Rui naturally would not choose to tolerate it.
There is no one in Teyvat who can make him tolerate it. Even if God provokes him, Zhong Rui will still strike hard.
"Eh?"
"But I also have a condition. I want you to add one person to the list of escorting prisoners this time."
Seno swallowed subconsciously, because he had realized that things might be getting serious.
"May I ask who Iwagami-sama wants to add?"
"Of course it's me. Be happy. As the Rock God, I will personally escort many of you back to Sumeru!"
Chapter 396 Journey to Xumi
"Sir Nuo, do we really want to take that Liyue man back?"
"Since Liyue has agreed to our unreasonable request, this matter will naturally be nothing. If the great sage has any opinions at that time, I will be responsible for it."
After hearing that Saino was responsible for the responsibility, the discipline officer finally felt relieved. He wanted to talk to Zhong Rui on the way and asked about Tian Rui's eyes and Pokémon. However, after finding that the other party completely ignored him, Hei Left with a face.
"Sorry, you have to walk with us."
Saino, who knew Zhong Rui's distinguished status, originally wanted to find a carriage for Zhong Rui to sit in, but Zhong Rui refused, and Liyue did not provide any means of transportation.
"It's nothing. Besides, this rocky abyss road is not suitable for carriages in the first place."
Zhong Rui didn't care about the walk at all, just treating it as a walk, and this walk was originally used to torture the criminals.
"I said, can we walk slower!"
"My feet hurt! Damn it! Why don't we wear shoes! Uh-huh! The chains suddenly became tight! I was wrong! I was wrong! Stop shrinking or you won't be able to breathe..."
Those Xumi scholars who committed crimes in Liyue had their necks and hands tied with golden chains, and their feet were also shackled, and the soles of their feet were cursed to burn as soon as they put on their shoes.
Of course, it was not Zhong Rui who provided this curse, but the resentful immortals, who also imposed various weird curses on them.
For example, drinking water will turn into pepper water, eating will smell like feces, skin contact with liquid will feel like being scalded by hot water, and other very vicious but not fatal curses.
Hiking to Sumeru requires passing through a huge rock abyss, and the environment here is relatively dry. Even in autumn, the sun is still very poisonous, and the rock surface is baked hot by the sun. Once you step on it, your feet will be hot and uneven. It’s simply double torture!
Hearing the screams coming from behind, Zhong Rui silently increased the firepower of the sun in the sky and trimmed the rock surface in front to make it more concave and convex.
Although Zhong Rui promised that the group of scholars would arrive at the Order Academy in Xumi alive, Zhong Rui didn't mind giving them more troubles on the way.
After they have experienced the 81-[-] disaster, Zhong Rui will kindly send them to the Western Paradise.
"Lord Seno, should we slow down our journey? Those scholars seem to be unable to hold on any longer..."
"This..."
There was a hesitant expression on Seno's face. He wanted to rush back to the Order House as soon as possible to stop the great sage's plan that might touch the taboo.
But if they don't slow down, those scholars who are already weak may not be able to enter the Sumeru Realm at all.
Several people had already passed out, frothing at the mouth, and were only being carried forward by others' chains.
"I happen to know some medical methods, leave it to me."
Zhong Rui took the initiative to help Sai Nuo out of the siege, and waved a green light into the bodies of the scholars to heal them.
Of course, this was not a sign of kindness, but they noticed that the nerves on the soles of their feet were almost necrotic, and their sense of pain had decreased a lot.
"Is this okay to move on?"
"Uh... yes."
In the eyes of those scholars, the smile on Zhong Rui's face was no different from the devil crawling out of the abyss.
Soon there was another pleasant cry of pain. After the sounds subsided slightly, Zhong Rui healed their wounds again.
In this way, it took them a day just to cross the giant rock abyss.
In order to continue to torture their spirits, Zhong Rui helped them force their minds to wake up, while curing their physical fatigue and urging them to continue their sleepless journey.
This was nothing to Seno, who was accustomed to long-distance travel, but to these pampered scholars it was almost fatal.
"We...are finally back..."
Looking at the rainforest in front of them, these scholars' eyes filled with tears. They had never missed their hometown so much. The hot and uneven rock surface under their feet was no longer hot, but dirt and lawn!
According to Rock God's promise, when they arrive at Xumi City, the chains on their bodies will be untied, and then they will truly be free!
As for whether they would be imprisoned by the Disciplinary Officer later, their behavior in Liyue was originally something that was tacitly approved by the Teaching Council or the Great Sage. At most, they were secretly transferred away the next day after entering for one day.
However, their excitement did not last long. Poisonous insects appeared out of nowhere and suddenly attacked their group of mushrooms. Tigers with long sideburns were hiding in the trees and preparing to hunt.
Even if they want to drink water, a crown-crocodile will suddenly appear, ready to bite their heads off.
"This is the honey worm. This kind of poisonous insect is very rare. It is said that even scholars from the Biophysics School who wanted to study this kind of poisonous insect searched for three whole months in the rainforest but could not find any trace of it. Its poisonous It’s very troublesome, and if it’s not treated as soon as possible, I’m afraid I won’t survive for a few days.”
Seno looked at the scholar's purple-green left leg and shook his head helplessly.
The poison may have penetrated deep into the bone marrow. Even in the case of emergency amputation, the insect poison has already entered the blood circulation.
"Ah? This, Lord Liyue, can you help me cure this?"
The scholar suppressed the feeling of nausea and vomiting. Not only did he have a headache, but he was also almost losing consciousness in his limbs. He could only look to Zhong Rui for help.
"Sorry, I can only heal physical pain, but I can't do anything about this kind of poison."
Zhong Rui naturally had no intention of treating him, and was still looking for poisonous insects in the rainforest, although the immortals had placed a curse on them that would easily attract poisonous insects.
However, the range of activities of most poisonous insects is very limited, so Zhong Rui can only help them relocate.
Zhong Rui found the nectar plant insect in a small hidden tree hole. Looking at its colorful appearance, he knew that it must be highly toxic. The result was as powerful as he imagined!
"But don't worry, I can give you some relief. At least there will be no problem in surviving to Xumi City."
Zhong Rui patted the scholar's shoulder comfortingly and assured him.
"Then what happened after that?"
"After that? Without my treatment, you would have been completely corroded by the poison and died."
The scholar also heard that Zhong Rui was not prepared to continue hanging his life at all, and looked at Sai Nuo next to him for help.
"...I know a ranger who is familiar with the rainforest. He might have an antidote to this poison. Let's change the route a little. We also need to replenish supplies."
Sai Nuo looked at Zhong Rui and found that he had no objection, then he proposed to go to Huachengguo for supplies.
I hope the "bad luck" of these criminals will not be brought to Huachengguo...
Chapter 397 Kelai: Amber’s friends are my friends!
"Huh? Seno? What are you doing?"
Tinari, who was communicating with others, noticed the large crowd arriving in the distance. When he saw Seno walking in the front, there was an expression of curiosity and confusion on his face.
"If you want to hear some more complicated situations, I can tell you."
"No, eh? Are these people poisoned? Why are they still tied with chains? Forget it, let's unchain them first and treat them."
Seeing what Seno said, Tinari understood that this was a troublesome matter, so he was naturally unwilling to get involved, and instead focused on the poisoned Sumeru scholars.
"The treatment is okay, it's just a chain..."
Sai Nuo subconsciously looked towards Zhong Rui and saw that he didn't express anything, so he shook his head at Tinari.
"Okay, let's carry those who are relatively sick first. It's a shame they can continue to walk like this."
Zhong Rui glanced at Tinari's big furry ears for a few times, then noticed the green-haired girl in the crowd and walked towards her.
"Are you Kelai?"
Although I have never seen Kelai in person, her green-haired and purple-eyed beauty is still very obvious in the crowd.
What's more, she still has the aura of the devil's remnants in her body, and she also has more death energy than ordinary people...
Combining the above characteristics, Zhong Rui was almost certain that the girl in front of him was Amber's good friend, Kelai.
"Eh? Well...do you know me, this gentleman?"
Ke Lai looked at the foreigner dressed in Liyue and suddenly called out his name, subconsciously feeling nervous.
Although she also knows some foreigners, among the people in Liyue, she only knows one Xiangling...
"I have a letter here that Amber asked me to help deliver."
"Amber's letter! Thank you!"
Hearing that Zhong Rui had sent Amber a letter, a surprised smile appeared on Kelai's face.
In the past, she suffered many experiments and tortures due to the Solstice Kingdom. Later, she experienced some things in Mondstadt and was rescued by Amber and everyone in the Knights. Now, Xumi was brought back to her hometown for medical treatment. Receive academic instruction and treatment from Master Tinari.
"I, um..."
Just when Kelai was about to say something, he suddenly felt dizzy and the deathly aura on his body became a little heavier.
