Is this a chat group or a harem group?

Lei Movie is new here, and he is still not familiar with Liyue Port, so as an acquaintance, he naturally cannot let him go.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Lei Movie nodded.

"No problem...but let me say it first, I don't have Mora on me, you have to prepare the money yourself." Zhong Hui reminded.

"Sure enough, you still don't bring any money with you as before... Zhongli was brought down by you." Lei Movie didn't know what to say about this.

"Why did I lead him down? Obviously he led me down." Zhong Hui resolutely blamed Zhong Li.

Lei Movie didn't want to delve into the question of who led the spoils. Anyway, for these two, if they want to get Mora, it's just a blink of an eye. The reason why they don't bring money when they go out is just to make their behavior more in line with Like a mortal.

When people who are tired of being gods learn the life of mortals, they often let themselves strictly abide by the living habits and rules of conduct of mortals. Perhaps this can make them gain insights from it?

Lei Movie couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Both Zhong Hui and Zhong Li have survived for more than 6000 years, older than any other gods at that time, so it is reasonable to survive for so long.

Chapter 13

In fact, the existence of God will also wear out in the passage of time, and the results of wear and tear cannot be changed. It will make people become confused, crazy, and forget all kinds of things in the past, so Not even gods are eternal.

Under such circumstances, Zhong Hui and Zhong Li, who can survive for 6000 years and still be conscious, are worthy of emulation for any other gods.

Lei Yingying felt that the two of them turned into mortals to live their lives. There might be some deep meaning to it. Although she came to Liyue across the sea from Daoqiu, although she didn't have any direct purpose, she still had some plans to observe Zhong Hui and Zhongli... ... To be precise, it is to observe Zhong Hui.

Without Zhong Hui, Zhong Li would be a very special existence, someone to care about.But Zhong Hui is a more caring existence than Zhong Li.

Under the observation of Lei Movie, Zhong Hui took her around Liyue Port and bought a lot of home furnishings. Because they had too many things, they didn't take them back by themselves. tea room.It was the first time this kind of thing had happened to Iwagami Tea House, but they probably wouldn't say anything that they cared about.

After finishing the matter on Lei Movie's side, Zhong Hui also returned to the Pastoral Hall.

At this time, the sky was already dark. After entering his bedroom, Zhong Hui lit the sand-wood standing lamp. The hazy light made the bedroom bright. Wearing a layer of fluorescent gauze.

Zhong Hui sat down on the chair and looked at the chat group. When he was walking outside with Lei Movie today, the chat group was not static. The three existing members had their own communication.

"As expected of Estes."

Scanning the content in the chat group, Zhong Hui sighed with satisfaction, because Estes had quickly completed the two tasks in his world.

Butterfly Ninja completed the task of kissing her sister, and she didn't know which part she chose in the end. Even if she asked about this matter, the other party would not answer it.

As for the task of killing ghosts, Butterfly Ninja still needs to find it. She said that she would ask her sister to find the rest of Zhu to help, so that the ghosts can be found and killed as soon as possible.

Clara finished the task of washing the dishes, and the last message was to enter the Rift known as the Devil's Stomach to do the second task.

At this moment, the progress point of the group level has reached 270/500, which is more than halfway. After completing this round of tasks, the group level should be raised to E level in the next round.

"I don't know how many points are required to travel to other worlds. If it is not expensive, I can go to other people's worlds to play. By the way, if I reach the E level, I can have one more chance to draw new members. Do you know which new members will appear?"

Zhong Hui was looking forward to it.

......

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Zhong Hui said.

The door was gently pushed open, and a tall, handsome man with black hair and golden eyes walked in, wearing black and gold underwear.

"I heard that Ying is here." The man who came in said calmly. He stood there tall and straight like a pine tree.

"Did you hear what Hutao said? Xiaoying has indeed come, and she is currently living in the Yanshang teahouse, and she is our neighbor next door. Do you want to meet?" Zhong Hui said with a smile, looking at his sworn brother.

Although he is the elder brother and Zhongli is the younger brother in their sworn relationship, but judging from his appearance, I am afraid he will be regarded as the younger brother by others. It looks like a very handsome young man.

"Since it's next door, it's easy to meet. There's no need to meet right away. We'll have enough time to meet each other later. But, brother, do you know why she came here?" Zhong Li asked.

"Maybe you missed me?" Zhong Hui thought for a while and said.

Zhongli: "..."

His eldest brother is powerful, responsible, and deeply trusted by everyone, but he just doesn't talk much.

The other party was obviously not so far-fetched at the beginning, so he was convinced by the other party in the ancient past, and he was willing to sworn to him and be the other party's younger brother. If the other party behaved unreliably at the beginning, then he might need more help. It takes time to understand the other person's heart, and then you will be willing to worship him.

"Zhongli, what kind of eyes do you have? I feel like you're burying me in your heart." Zhong Hui looked into Zhongli's eyes and said.

"Based on common sense, it is very common for you to be dismissed, so what you said is right." Zhong Li said without any concealment.

Zhong Hui couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "It's really a waste of raising you. When you were a little kid, I was the elder brother and the father who brought you up. Now you know how to bury me."

"...More than 6000 years have passed, can we not mention what happened more than 6000 years ago?" Zhongli said calmly.

"There is no way, who made you the cutest at that time? Look at you now, with a straight face all day long, as if everyone owes you money... Eh? Take a closer look If you think about it, you made all the moras in the world, it seems that people in the whole world really feel that they owe you money." Zhong Hui began to think for himself as he spoke.

Zhongli: "..."

His brother's thinking is so out of the ordinary, even he can't keep up every time.At this time, it is best to change the subject.

Pulling a chair for himself to sit down, Zhongli said slowly: "Brother, I have one more thing to discuss with you."

"Tell me, there is nothing in this world that your brother can't do." Zhong Hui said with a big wave of his hand.

"I hope you can die with me." Zhongli said.

Zhong Hui: "???"

His expression was a bit dazed, and he stared at Zhongli with wide eyes. Seeing that Zhongli seemed to be serious, he couldn't help but wonder if Zhongli had lost his head today, otherwise how could he say such incomprehensible words?

"Are you finally starting to wear out?" Zhong Hui asked after a moment of thought.

"That's not the case. I didn't ask my elder brother to die with me, but a fake death." Zhongli replied.

"Oh, fake death, you made it clear earlier, it really shocked me... But why do you want to fake death? Is it necessary?" Zhong Hui asked strangely.

"Yes, for Li Yue's common people, this is a necessary step." Zhong Li said.

"Tell me in detail. I don't think you are acting on a whim. There must be a reason for you. I am all ears." Zhong Hui's expression became serious at this moment.

Chapter 14 Oh, we are old men

Zhong Li spoke to Zhong Hui slowly.

The duty of the Dust Seven rulers is to guide human beings, and Zhongli has been working hard for this. Known as the King of Rocks, he will appear every year at the Invitation Ceremony held at Yujingtai to tell everyone about the next year Liyue The policy of how to act, and the seven stars and eight gates responsible for Liyue's operation will also fulfill his orders well and bring Liyue to prosperity.

This kind of thing has been going on for a long time, so long that Zhongli became a little numb, until one morning when he was strolling in Liyue Harbor with light rain, he heard a businessman compliment his subordinates.

"You have done your duty well. Now, go and rest."

So Zhongli fell into deep thought, has his duty been completed?Liyue, do you really need to guide yourself?

This incident was like a seed appearing in Zhongli's heart, and it continued to germinate as time went by. In the invitation ceremony last year, Yuheng star, one of the seven stars and eight gates of Liyue, was engraved A question Qing asked made the germinated seed in Zhong Li's heart grow into a tree.

"The emperor has guarded Liyue for thousands of years, but will it be the same for the next thousand years, ten thousand years, or one hundred thousand years?"

Zhong Li didn't blame Ke Qing for her hasty question, but smiled instead.

He felt that what Ke Qing said was right, gods would also wear out, he couldn't really protect Li Yue's common people forever, this world would be handed over to those humans sooner or later.However, if he just withdraws like this, can the common people really develop a kingdom without gods?

Zhongli was not very sure, so after a long time of thinking, he made a decision, that is to feign death first to see how Liyue's people will deal with him after his death. If death is the matter, then he can completely let go of the burden of thousands of years.

Of course, he can't be the only one who faked his death. He is very prestigious and is regarded as the Demon God of Sand who has been silently protecting Liyue. He must also fake his death with him.

"Brother, this is my consideration."

"Well, I see."

Zhong Hui thought about it.

He didn't expect Zhongli to have such an idea. Was it because he had lived too long, and was worried that if he accidentally bid farewell to this world one day, he would mess up the person he originally guarded?It’s normal to think this way. God is like a father to a country. Everyone in a country is a child. If a father is suddenly lost, it’s hard to say whether the child will be able to cope well with the subsequent situation.

So feign death to try it out?

"I don't blame you for having such an idea." Zhong Hui sighed and said, "Except for you, Fengshen Barbatos, and Leishen Raiden, the other four have already changed their positions, or even changed individually. More than one generation, this probably makes you understand the truth that gods can't last long, and will fall due to various accidents."

In fact, if he hadn't rescued Raiden 500 years ago, Dao Wife would have changed the god.

Among the current seven rulers in the world, apart from Zhongli, the oldest Barbatos is only over 2000 years old, while Zhongli is already over [-] years old. This is probably why Zhongli feels that he may die at any time.

"Brother, the situation is as you know it. What do you think?" Zhong Li looked at Zhong Hui and asked.

"I don't think there is any need to rush, just wait a little longer," Zhong Hui said.

"Wait a little longer?"

"Yes, you just faked your death. It seems that it is difficult for Liyue to have the due test. It is just to let someone handle your funeral. If you really want to test Liyue, you need to do something more."

"For example?" Zhong Li was thoughtful.

"For example, toss a demon god out to attack Liyue, and see how Liyue responds." Zhong Hui casually made a suggestion.

Zhong Li continued to think about it, and felt that Zhong Hui's suggestion had good feasibility.

"But you don't have to worry about this matter." Zhong Hui smiled and said: "What you said before gave me some ideas. I will arrange someone to attack Liyue later. At that time, I will cooperate with you to feign death Test Liyue common people."

He thought of the chat group, and thought of Esdesh in it. Judging from the communication in the group, Esdesh's strength is quite good, maybe he can borrow it for a try.

"Brother, do you have a suitable candidate? If that's the case, let him come." Zhongli said.

In fact, he also has candidates to look for, such as the demon god Oser who is sealed under the seabed in the east of Liyue Port. He has thought about whether there is a chance to use indirect means to release him as a test object for the people of Liyue, but at present It seems no longer necessary.

Afterwards, the two continued to exchange some details on the matter of retirement, and Zhong Li left Zhong Hui's bedroom until the night became deeper and deeper.

As Zhongli left, Zhong Hui half-lyed on the bed, with his right leg crossed over his left, and sighed, "It's been more than 6000 years, and even Zhongli is already an old man planning to retire."

......

Walnut is sick.

She went out early this morning to run errands, and while she was walking on the road, she was thinking about Zhong Hui's affairs. She didn't even notice when it started to rain, so she got wet and lay down with a fever as soon as she came back at noon. on the bed.

But what she was thinking finally made her think clearly.

The reason why Zhong Hui suddenly became energetic had nothing to do with her, it was just that Zhong Hui wanted to cheer up. Otherwise, how could it be explained that Zhong Hui didn't show anything when we went shopping together last time?

After realizing the fact that she was being passionate, Hu Tao was depressed for 1 minute, and of course it was only 1 minute. After 1 minute, she recovered to be a cheerful and lively Hu Tao.

As for fever?This is just a small problem, she feels that as long as she rests for a day, she will be full of energy tomorrow.

In order to recover quickly, her petite body was lying on the bed, covered with a quilt, and the Qiankun Taigua hat, which was usually inherited from her grandfather, was placed on the bedside table, letting her long brown hair hang down. , the whole person looks a little more vulnerable.

"Squeak."

There was the sound of a door being pushed open.

"Did the meal come? Put it here and I can eat it myself, you... Huh? Mr. Zhong Hui, why did you bring the meal?" Hu Tao turned her head and looked a little surprised.

Chapter 15 Ambiguous Atmosphere

Zhong Hui was dressed in black slim-fitting clothes, his black hair was naturally scattered, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, holding a tray in his hand, he came to the bed and put it on the bedside table.

"The ceremonial servant who brought you the meal was busy so I came to deliver the meal to you. As for why it was me and not someone else, it was probably because I happened to be passing by at the time. What? Is it okay for me to deliver the meal?" Zhong Hui said with a smile.

"That's not true, it's just that you, Mr. Zhong Hui, gave me a very strong sense of shock." Hu Tao said with her big eyes blinking.

"Impact? What a strange description."

"I think it's very suitable, because Mr. Zhong Hui, you used to be a salted fish. When did the salted fish help deliver meals? Of course it is very shocking, right?"

Walnut said with a smile.

As for words such as salted fish, she had heard them from Zhong Hui before. Before, she told Zhong Hui not to lie still all day long. Understand what salted fish means.

"People change. I used to be a salted fish, but I am now...Let me think about what kind of fish is suitable to describe me." Zhong Hui began to think about it.

"Bitter pufferfish!" Hu Tao said immediately.

"How could it be a bitter fish? This thing is stupid, and it can be as stupid as it needs to be. I'm not like that." Zhong Hui retorted.

"But the bitter pufferfish is very cute."

"You mean I'm cute?"

"Uh......"

"For a man like me, it's not suitable to be described as cute?" Zhong Hui thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Why are we talking about this? Let's eat first, otherwise the food will be cold. The temperature in the past few days is still relatively low."

Hu Tao nodded her head, her stomach was already growling with hunger, she supported her body with her hands, her brown hair was naturally scattered on her chest and behind her, each strand was extraordinarily smooth.

Seeing Hu Tao get up, Zhong Hui took a look and said, "Didn't I say that? The temperature is low recently, why are you still coming out of the quilt? Just keep covering yourself with the quilt."
