In Yuanshen, no one understands holy relics better than me

"What time is it now! Didn't you sleep last night?" Paimon put his hands on his hips, very dissatisfied with Xia Tian's non-compliance with the time: "The ceremony is about to begin!"

"Pimon, this hasn't started yet." Ying helped to speak, "We've only just arrived."

"Ying! Why do you always speak for ogres!" Paimon shook his feet angrily, wishing Ying would not be so kind.

From the moment Xia Tian got up late, he guessed that Paimeng would make use of the problem, so he was already prepared.

He took out the half of the steamed stuffed bun that he had just eaten, and handed it over: "This is red bean-flavored, very sweet."

Paimon was not polite, and stuffed it into his mouth, but there was still no sign of calming down on his face.

"Okay, I'll treat you to lunch!"

As soon as Xia Tian said this, Paimon's expression changed from cloudy to clear in an instant: "You said it! Don't go back on your word!"

"You are so easy to coax!" Mona couldn't help complaining: "Should I give you food or sell you?"

Are you qualified to say this?You and Paimon are the same, each other!

Xia Tian and Ying reached such a consensus in their hearts, and smiled at each other.

After a short chat, everyone started to walk to the Dianyi Square, and it was hard to squeeze in late.

The first stage of the ceremony is not over yet.

Crowds of people stood at the entrance of the square, chatting with each other about the recent chaos, and even heard many irresponsible conjectures.

"Send Xian Dianyi this way, it means that those rumors are all settled, right?"

Before that, many people still had doubts about the death of the emperor and were looking forward to the reversal, but now they can only give up.

Followed by several sighs: "Old Lord Yan, he really... But the problem is why didn't he catch the murderer?"

The emperor's assassination is by no means a trivial matter, not to mention turning the whole Liyue upside down, and it shouldn't have been silent all the time.

Someone still saw it clearly, and pointed out: "Nonsense, someone who can assassinate Lord Yan must not be an ordinary person. I don't think the suspicious characters mentioned in the gossip are reliable..."

"Could it be suicide?"

Someone guessed the truth, but the onlookers seemed to be fools and didn't believe it at all: "You really dare to think! Why did Lord Yan commit suicide?"

"Yes, haha!"

"There is only one theory, but I think the possibility is very high! I heard that at this moment, he is a young man with a fairly high official position among the fools. His name seems to be "Young Master"..."

When it comes to fools, everyone gnashes their teeth.

And as a high-ranking official among fools, the title of "Master" is even more like a rat on the street.

"That boy, I suspect that the demon god in the sea was also released by him, otherwise he would not have appeared suddenly without a reason, right? They have been suppressed by Lord Yan for 2000 years..."

All the people agreed unanimously: "Yes, it happened to be at the threshold where Prince Yan's accident happened."

"Everything is connected, that person must have colluded with the demon god to harm Lord Yan! Hey, this murderer has a really dark heart!"

"Fools? That is indeed very suspicious. Everyone knows that they are a group of greedy guys who are crooked... and the fools have been thoroughly investigated by Lord Tianquan, and there is no trace of the fools recently!"

"I'm guilty, otherwise, why are you afraid of being investigated! It's best for those bastards to get out... It's just Lord Yan, eh!"

No matter how angry he was, Lord Yan couldn't come back, so he could only sigh in the end.

The rumors of the Fools were deliberately released by Ningguang, and she made most people blame the Fools.

The purpose is to arouse Liyue Wanmin's resistance to the Fools... In this way, even if the investigation cannot be continued due to political pressure in the end, but without the people's buy-in, the Fools' business will not be able to continue, and they will have to leave sooner or later.

Although the fools restrained themselves, they hadn't completely withdrawn yet. Someone quickly reminded: "Shhh, everyone, please keep your voice down too! What if you let the fools watch you, there is no Lord Yan to protect you now."

In a country without gods, does it have the strength to protect itself in the face of other gods?

No one knows, but at least many people are willing to believe, to believe in the Liyue Seven Stars.

"There are Liyue Seven Stars, I am not afraid."

But there are also people who have doubts about Qixing: "So, there were rumors that Lord Tianquan assassinated..."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense! In order to protect Liyue, Lord Tianquan even destroyed the Qunyu Pavilion!"

This kind of suspicion has attracted quite a lot of controversy, and there is even a situation of "if you continue to talk nonsense, I will beat you".

Originally, there were quite a few people who regarded the Liyue Seven Stars as more important than the Emperor.

After all, a god who comes only once a year, and a human being who cares about Liyue all the time... Maybe the former is greater, but the latter is more popular.

"Hey, forget it, let's stop guessing here! The Qianyan Army over there seems to be making an announcement, let's listen to what the General Affairs Department has to say!"

Follow the line of sight.

A general of the Qianyan Army wearing armor unblocked the square, and at the same time he brought a call to arms that looked like an imperial decree.

"Send the official announcement of the Seven Stars—" The loud and clear voice shocked the audience.

This is the official speaker, who is about to tell the truth about the emperor's fall, and everyone stands solemnly, waiting for the answer to be revealed.

The long history has not only brought changes in language and culture, but also more and more detailed texts.

Each country has two different scripts, its own ancient script and the modern script commonly used by Tivat.

Among them, Liyue's ancient characters have very few vocabulary, which is relatively difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Few people will learn it now, but it is solemn to use ancient characters for formal occasions in China.

It's like this announcement about the emperor.

"Everyone should know that although Tenglong Feilin lives longer than mountains, it will eventually turn into ashes."

"The emperor's immortality, his life is equal to the sun and the moon, but sometimes it is cloudy and sunny, and it coincides with the thunder disaster."

"It is said in the streets and alleys that there are all kinds of messages, saying that the emperor was assassinated, which is not true."

"The emperor suffered a catastrophe, and his soul returned to the sky."

"Therefore, I tell Liyue, and I pray that the people will mourn, so as not to cause heartbreak."

"Also, don't listen to the rumors and speculate."

……

After finishing speaking, the scene was filled with sadness... Dijun really died.

Qixing Mingwen, there is no room for maneuver... The emperor who has been with Liyue for thousands of years has really left.

There was even a slight sobbing sound constantly amplifying in my ears...

The desolate voice in this issue contains real sadness, confusion about Liyue's future, and too many emotions that cannot be let go.

But in the end, Liyue still has to move forward.

Among all the sorrows, Paimon is probably the most unusual.

Her emotions were not affected at all, she just felt dizzy, because she didn't understand what the proclamation just said.

"Hmm... um... Well, can you translate for me, what did the announcement from Seven Stars say?"

Liyue's ancient characters are too difficult for foreigners.

Xia Tian could barely understand a few key points, and explained: "The announcement said that the emperor was not assassinated, but because he failed to cross the tribulation."

It's funny to say, suddenly entering the plot of cultivating immortals... However, in Liyue, who is popular in cultivating immortals novels, maybe this is the most acceptable reason!

Paimon opened his mouth in surprise: "Eh? Qi Xing's rhetoric turned out like this... Could it be that Qi Xing knows that Lord Yan is not dead?"

Xia Tian shrugged: "If you don't know, then you don't deserve to be a Seven Star."

The crowd began to surge, and there was no time to say anything else.

Paimon urged anxiously: "It seems that the blockade of Dianyi Square has been lifted, let's go over quickly, or we won't be able to squeeze in!"

Chapter 320 The fifth big crisis in Tivat!

When following the crowd into the Ceremony Square, the support of the Hall of Rebirth has been removed from the other side.

Xia Tian really wanted to see how Hu Tao was dressed at work, so he stretched his neck to look around.

It's a pity that he failed to find that strange figure, but was glared at twice by Mona.

Rich spices surround the tip of the nose, the sound of washing bells is just beside the ear, and the golden furnace is surrounded by glass lilies.

Inside the cauldron is a dragon-patterned robe representing the immortal body of the emperor. It is as luxurious as it is, full of the air of the emperor, and should have been worn by the emperor before.

At this time, it was burning in the flames together with the items sacrificed by the people.

"Ah! Such beautiful clothes, why should they be burned? If they are auctioned, how many moras will they get!" Paimon couldn't help feeling sorry, his heart seemed to be bleeding, just like his own clothes were burned.

Xia Tian and Ying respectfully visited, and at the same time found Zhong Li leaning against the fence of the square. He seemed to be the person in charge of the aftermath left behind by the Xiangsheng Hall.

The ceremony is not over yet, so naturally I can't go to talk to him.

The process of remembering the people lasted about half an hour.

As the Qianyan army opened the way, Ningguang, the representative of Seven Stars, appeared in front of everyone in pure white.

Beside him is Ke Qing who doesn't change her purple attire, and Gan Yu who is always cute...

Ningguang bowed in front of the cauldron nine times in a row.

This is the highest etiquette except the kneeling ceremony which was abolished 1000 years ago.

Then she turned, took a step forward, and began the eulogy she used to close the ceremony.

……

"As I just said, the return of the emperor's soul to the sky is the severance of the contract and the end of an era..."

"A contract of 700 years, it will turn into ashes when it is burned..."

"Liyue people used to be happy, and in their happiness they forgot the cruelty of time..."

"The long dream of a land with gods is endless..."

"After waking up from the dream, people will say goodbye..."

"After the contract is reestablished, will you bless the next era?"

……

Rather than saying it was a farewell speech to the emperor, it was more like an invitation to the people of Liyue.

The new era belongs to the era of rule by man, is Liyue Wanmin willing to create the future with me... I can clearly feel this feeling.

At the end of the words, Ning Guang's gaze skipped over everyone and looked at Xia Tian.

Her shallow smile is so beautiful.

So much so that Xia Tian became more and more convinced - this girl really likes me, right?

I thought that Ke Qing and Gan Yu would still speak, but they didn't expect it to end so hastily.

Maybe it's because they know that the emperor is not dead, they don't have that sad emotion, and they can't be as good at disguising as Ningguang!

In front of so many people, they couldn't say hello to Xia Tian and others.

With the support of Qianyan Army, after delivering the eulogy, he left.

Then enter the time of free mourning.

Some people's emotions gradually lost control, and crying followed.

Xia Tian couldn't see it, so he hurried to the edge of the square, and found Lord Yan who organized his funeral... Now it should be said that he was in charge of organizing the ceremony of delivering the immortals.

Paimon sat on the mast, relaxed his flying muscles, looked at the mournful people in the square, and thought of the burned dragon robes, he couldn't help complaining: "Look, the people of Liyue feel that from now on I will never see Prince Yan again, just look at the atmosphere of remembrance and remembrance... why do you have a relaxed feeling in your own appearance?"

Not all, she was slapped in the face as soon as she finished speaking.

Not far away, Stone, the owner of Jie Suicui Xing, who sells stones, and his friends have already started their future business plans: "If you launch the stone carving souvenirs of the King of Rocks now, you will definitely make a lot of money." ?”

It can only be said that Liyue really deserves to be a country of merchants, and merchants really deserve to be merchants.

"Hehehe." Zhong Li was not dissatisfied, but smiled instead.

Then he asked Paimon, "Isn't it easier to relax after unloading the burden of 700 years?"

Some things, those who understand will naturally understand, and those who don't understand don't need to explain.

It's better to invite guests to dinner, Zhongli invited everyone: "By the way, when you are free, I will invite you to Xinyuexuan for dinner."

Xinyuexuan... When Xia Tian heard Zhongli mention this shop, he was so angry!
