He never thought that Bai Luo would ask such a question.
How to say it
Bai Luo had learned something about the demon Heulia through his investigation of Ginhara Hall, his search for ruins, and the plot of the game.
But no matter where you look, there are no portraits, statues or sculptures of her.
There isn't even a description of her appearance, instead it's more about promoting her kindness and goodness.
Among the people Bai Luo knows currently, probably only Zhongli knows what she looks like
"In that era, being beautiful was a disaster."
Looking at the sky outside the Yanshang Teahouse, Zhongli's eyes revealed an expression of nostalgia and regret, but he did not specifically say what the other person looked like.
"That is to say..."
Judging from Zhongli's words, Heulia should be ugly to fit the background of that era.
But the nostalgia and regret in his eyes made Bai Luo feel that things were not that simple.
"Nothing, I just thought that it seemed understandable that Heulia didn't leave any traces."
"excusable?"
"History can be recorded, but it is unreliable. Time has great power, and everything will be distorted over time. Even Heulia's followers will misunderstand their own gods over the years."
Having said that, Zhongli looked at Bai Luo again.
"Bai Luo, do you think you and I will disappear one day?"
The question that Zhongli asked seemingly unintentionally should be considered as some kind of test.
Is he testing the queen behind him? Or is he testing Bai Luo himself
I guess he is the only one who knows this, right
But his question made Bai Luo silent for a while.
Disappear
In fact, Bai Luo has been thinking about the possibility of his disappearance since he came to this world.
However, the disappearance he was thinking about should be different from the disappearance mentioned by Zhongli.
He felt that he must be a time traveler because in his memory, the continent of Teyvat was just a game.
The plots that appear one after another are the best evidence.
But the problem is... he has very few memories from before he traveled through time.
What's even more strange is that he would often ignore such things, and only realize them when someone suddenly brought them up like now.
And after the conversation is over, perhaps he will forget about it again.
Maybe... ... this has something to do with the part of his soul that he is missing.
If he is really a time traveler, if he returns to his own world, what will happen to him in this world
Will this world continue to move forward along its original trajectory
Does the Kingdom of Zhidong still have a twelfth executive officer who is outside the system of eleven executive officers
Is there still a "Bastoto" in Mondstadt who defected to the Fatui
Will Ye Lan become the new owner of the Liyue Rock Teahouse
Will a new leader emerge on Inazuma's Umijima Island
And what about Cole
Disappear.
I don’t know what Bai Luo, the instructor, and Anatoly mean to this world.
What will the world be like without him
Will he really leave any traces in this world
Chapter 647 How about we make a contract
"By the way, where are those things you took from the Salt of the Earth?"
After noticing that Bai Luo's expression was a little strange, Zhongli changed the subject in time.
But I guess he also knew something from the other party's reaction.
Many times, words can deceive people, eyes can deceive people, and even oneself can deceive oneself.
But this subconscious reaction is the most real.
"East.....thing?"
Zhongli's words called Bai Luo back from his emo state in time.
Good man, the things are already in his hands, how can he give them up easily
But the old man in front of him didn't seem like someone he could easily provoke.
"Liyue is now at a time of transition. The era of the gods and immortals will become a thing of the past. Heulia's era is even longer. The things she left behind should not return to Liyue at this time. It will only bring unnecessary disputes."
Zhongli knew that it would be difficult to get anything from this kid.
So he explained to him very patiently.
Nowadays, he is trying his best to downplay the influence of himself and the immortals on Liyue.
If Bai Luo hadn't caused such a big mess, perhaps he wouldn't have given Ye Lan and the Traveler the chance to see the immortal.
At the very beginning, he had intended to let mortals solve the crisis on their own.
If Heulia's miracle appeared in Liyue City at this critical moment, it might cause unnecessary trouble to this "assessment".
“Can’t I collect it myself?”
Bai Luo had no intention of hiding these treasures from the beginning. After all, Zhongli saw him take those things away with his own eyes.
Telling lies at this time will only bring trouble to yourself.
Besides, he never lies.
“Are you sure it’s just for collection?”
Zhongli doesn't believe that Bai Luo will not cause trouble when he gets this kind of thing that is enough to destroy the rules and balance of an industry in Liyue.
He did give Bai Luo the qualification of "Examiner", but that did not mean that he allowed Bai Luo to make test questions that exceeded the specifications.
"It can't be called a collection, because it will never appear in Liyue, or even in the entire Teyvat."
If the system absorbs the power of the demon god, it means that both the salt cup and the salt ruler will become useless.
As for the broken sword... ... it was originally a most ordinary weapon, and its only achievement was killing a god.
But this did not give it any powerful strength. Instead, it was washed away by the power of the devil and became fragile.
Even if it appeared on the market in Liyue, it would at most make some old guys in the Yinyuan Hall nervous, but it would not cause any big waves.
"Are you sure?"
After hearing Bai Luo say that these things would never appear in Liyue, Zhongli's expression improved a lot.
In fact, he couldn't tell whether Bai Luo was lying or not, but Bai Luo's statement surprised him a little.
From Bai Luo's words, he didn't seem to have any intention of letting these things see the light of day again.
And not just in Liyue, but in the entire Teyvat.
This is interesting.
"How about we make a contract?"
"... ... Just keep it in mind." Volcano Literature
I don't know if this so-called "knowing what's going on" is referring to the contract or the relics of Heulia.
Or maybe both.
As the God of Contracts, facing this person who repeatedly looks for loopholes in the contract, he should be punished by eating rocks.
But...whatever.
Everything has two sides. Perhaps it is because I stick to the contract that Bai Luo, who specializes in finding loopholes in the contract, appears.
"I'll leave Heulia's belongings to you. Don't slack off on the [Test Questions]. If you need anything, you can always come to the Hall of the Dead to find me. Hmm... I believe Chong Chong would like to see you, too."
The tea in his hand had been finished, and the ownership of Heulia's relics had been finalized, so Zhongli naturally had no reason to stay here any longer.
But what he said made Bai Luo curl his lips.
To sum it up in one sentence, don't bother me if there is nothing to do, and don't bother me if there is something to do, just handle it yourself.
That’s right, [Morax] no longer exists in this world. He is just a guest of the Wangsheng Hall with little influence.
It is not appropriate for him to jump into the face and explode at this time.
"Mr. Zhongli looks a bit busy?"
This wasn't Bai Luo teasing him.
According to Chu Yi, when Zhongli came here before, he would sit there for the whole day regardless of whether he had seen Bai Luo or not.
But this time, he didn't even plan to personally see how Bai Luo dealt with Heulia's relics. It seemed that he was in a hurry to do something.
He was so anxious that he didn't even bother to cause trouble for Bai Luo.
"I just wanted to find someone who could remember me and give a funeral to the god named Morax that was worthy of his status."
Zhongli did not hide anything from Bai Luo, because it was not something worth hiding.
After the famous traveler appeared in Liyue City, many forces set their sights on her.
It is simply impossible to hide this matter.
This was also one of the reasons why he mentioned the word "disappearance" when discussing Heulia with Bai Luo just now.
"Do you want me to send a wreath or something like that? To express my condolences?"
Looking at the young old man who was about to hold a funeral for himself, Bai Luo curled his lips and said.
He originally thought that this task would eventually fall on him.
He was ready to take a photo with his camera and make the scissors sign at Morax's grave.
I never thought that he would choose Ying in the end.
Is it possible that there is something special about her
"That depends on whether you are doing this in an official capacity or a private capacity."
Facing Bai Luo's teasing, Zhongli answered very seriously.
"Well... as an instructor, how about that?"
"If you are sending gifts as an instructor, Qixing will certainly treat you with the highest etiquette, respectfully await your arrival, and give you a gift that matches your status in return."
Etiquette is also a very important culture in Liyue. No matter how tense the relationship between the two parties is, as long as they come with good intentions, Liyue will treat them with courtesy.
On the contrary, Liyue is not afraid of threats from anyone.
"Then... what about Bai Luo's identity?"
"If it's Bai Luo's identity, then I won't be polite."
"!!??"
What does you're welcome mean
Zhongli didn't explain what he meant by "you're welcome".
After saying hello to the receptionist Chu Yi, he joined the crowd outside the door and disappeared on the street of Chihuyan.
