Yujingtai.

The secretary who came to hand over the box had already left, and now there were only Ningzhe, Ningguang and Jiang Guo in the huge Yujing Terrace.

Jiang Guo was holding a box in his hand, and inside the box was a colorless Eye of God.

This was a treasure given to Ningzhe by Emperor Yanwang, but Ningzhe changed hands and gave it to Jiang Guo.

He even looked curious, wanting to know how this Eye of God would shine in Jiang Guo's hands.

Jiang Guo's mouth twitched, then he took a deep breath and finally decided to pick up the Eye of God.

——After he touched this colorless gem, almost instantly, the gem bloomed with a dazzling green light.

What followed was a gentle breeze gradually blowing around.

The wind carried some branches and leaves, and brought the fragrance of glazed lilies, flying wantonly in the air.

They surrounded Jiang Guo, as if they were celebrating the birth of another original god.

"Hmm... it is indeed the Eye of God with the wind attribute, which is not beyond my expectation."

Ningzhe touched his chin and spoke thoughtfully.

Then, he seemed to suddenly remember something and frowned: "Wait...so his free will even exceeds the desire for freedom itself?"

Oops...

How could such a person be born in Liyue? He should live in Mondstadt!

If nothing else, he definitely has a lot in common with the bard.

...

Almost at the same time, Gossip Hall.

In the lobby, Zhongli was sitting on a chair, reading a novel with a very relaxed expression.

However, suddenly, his brows wrinkled imperceptibly.

The Eye of God he gave Ningzhe was lit up by the wind attribute induction?

Unexpectedly, that boy Ningzhe's wish was actually... No, that aura didn't seem to belong to Ningzhe.

Zhongli felt the aura coming from Yujingtai carefully, and his expression suddenly became a little strange.

This time, he used Ningguang's hand to send the Colorless God's Eye to Ningzhe. His original intention was just to know what his "wish" was.

Because of the spiritual power the storyteller felt that day, Zhongli also thought that Ningzhe might reject the Eye of God.

But what he didn't expect was that this kid not only rejected the Eye of God, but also immediately gave it to someone else...

"..."

The hand holding the novel trembled, and Zhongli regained his composure.

Forget it, let’s put Ningzhe’s matter aside for now, there are more important things in front of us.

I don't know what happened recently, but after listening to the second act of Ningzhe's Storytelling Monkey, Hutao looked at him with something wrong.

Sometimes she snickered, sometimes shook her head, and sometimes even secretly looked at him with a "pity" look.

Even though Zhongli was well-informed, he still couldn't understand what was going on.

And inexplicably, Hu Tao suddenly became particularly concerned about him.

Not only daily necessities, food, housing and transportation, but also entertainment choices, even the books to read in leisure time are carefully selected by Hutao.

Um...

For example, the book "My Miko Can't Be So Cute" that he is holding now was selected for him by Hu Tao himself.

According to Hu Tao, this book was written by a famous writer of Inazuma, and it is unique and very unique among light novels.

With the thought of "learning", Zhongli also read on.

But as he looked at it, Zhongli realized something was wrong.

First of all, Zhongli knew the true identity of this so-called "famous rice wife writer".

After all, nothing in the entire Liyue Port could be hidden from Prince Yan. When the Eightfold Divine Son first sent someone to Liyue to collect the manuscript, Zhongli knew everything.

Secondly, the "witch" in this book has a strong sense of déjà vu.

Through this book, he always felt that the author was hinting at something ulterior...

Moreover, it is easy for this old man to think of other people.

"..."

I turned over the page again and saw a few big words clearly written on it: [Love is a pleasure, love is crematorium].

Zhongli fell into silence. He knew at a glance that Hu Tao had added these words.

Even though it was different from the printed words in the original book, she thoughtfully drew a ghost expression on the back.

Covering the book with an expressionless face, Zhongli stood up and walked to the window sill.

Through the window, Zhongli could clearly see that people were already laying various exquisite silk stripes on the street.

Street lamps and plaques are all hung with pale gold or light blue silk.

The silks are connected to each other, forming beautiful pictures between the floors.

Moon by Moon Festival...

Zhongli suddenly remembered the Liyue Millennium Competition held in the past few days, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

Festivals are constantly changing with the progress of the times, but no matter how they change, their core remains eternal.

It's just...looking at how busy people were, Zhongli couldn't help but smile.

...

Yujingtai.

Jiang Guo mastered the Eye of God very quickly, and the wind that swept around him disappeared in an instant.

"...Phew, is this the power of the Eye of God?"

He raised his hand, looked at the Eye of God glowing with green light in his hand, and murmured.

He heard his master mention that the Eye of God is an extremely powerful thing. It can be used as a medium that allows humans to drive the corresponding elemental power without paying a huge price.

In this world composed of elements, being able to drive elemental power is undoubtedly a very powerful asset.

But even so, his master chose to give up the Eye of God.

At first, he didn't understand it. But after he obtained the Eye of God, he had some understanding.

Human beings' wishes are stored in the Eye of God, and if the Eye of God is forcibly taken away by people or other beings one day, people's wishes will also go with it.

At this time, unless the owner of the Eye of God has a pure mind, he will be extremely seriously affected.

In other words, the Eye of God is not only the recognition of the gods, but also the shackles set by the gods for you.

"No wonder...no wonder you don't want to get the Eye of God."

After thinking about it, Jiang Guo looked at Ningzhe and spoke softly.

Ningzhe possesses that unparalleled spiritual power, so naturally he will not allow himself to be controlled by gods...

"How is it, how do you feel?"

Ningzhe glanced at the Eye of God in Jiang Guo's hand and nodded slightly.

"It feels pretty good, after all, it is the power of the wind element..."

After hearing Ningzhe's words, Jiang Guo waved his hand, and the gentle wind suddenly gathered around him.

The wind gradually shaped into Jiang Guo's hand, eventually turning into a shield.

"...Wind Shield?"

Seeing this move, the corners of Ningzhe's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Let me tell you, this kind of defensive power is quite suitable for Jiang Guo...

Jiang Guo was also quite satisfied and couldn't help but nod.

He doesn't have the talent to break the rules, so... complying with all this is what he should do.

"Very good... Now that you have been recognized by the Eye of God, you don't have to go to the Privy Council."

At this moment, Ningguang suddenly spoke to Jiang Guo.

"ah?"

Hearing this, Jiang Guo was confused for a moment.

Is he unemployed?

And... such a good thing?!

"...After that, you can join Yunhai Book Company."
To be continued...
