"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, seven, two, two, three, four, five, six, seven..."
"Ah... Really, Senior Shichi, why are you doing gymnastics now?" Kei couldn't accept it. "Shouldn't the good time be spent in battle? Blades and shadows, cold wind and rain, the sword light is like me, cutting off all the clutter!"
An Jin pricked up his ears again. This sentence 'The sword light is like me, cutting off all the clutter' is not an ordinary slogan, but the catchphrase of another ruler among the seven stars of Liyue - Yuheng Star, Kyouki. This means that the timeline he is in is indeed near the main plot, but it is not safe.
Ningguang is already not young, and she must have been in charge of the title of Tianquan Star for some time, while Kyouki is a little girl, and it is very likely that she is not famous yet, but it is better to ask around first. What if this sentence is the sword formula passed down in Kyouki's family?
So An Jin asked, "What a good sentence, 'Cut off all the clutter', Kei, with this kind of writing skills, you can go write a novel."
Kei shook his head with a bitter face, "How could it be my idea? This is the slogan of my idol, Lady Kyouki of Yuheng Star. Lady Kyouki has become one of the Seven Stars at the same age as me. She is simply my life goal!"
Another key piece of information was obtained. Kyouki has become one of the Seven Stars. Doesn't that mean that the Traveler will wake up soon? I don't know if it is the brother or the sister who is coming. I have to prepare in advance, at least to get familiar with her.
The plot of the original god is very interesting. When An Jin lived on Earth, he had some understanding of the Gnostic culture in the background of the original god, and he also studied alchemy for a period of time. In short, the situation of these two siblings is particularly like the legendary perfect people, or real people, or the original people.
And Teyvat is a melting pot for refining travelers. The original form of the original people has experienced the baptism of the world and finally washed away the lead and upgraded to the extreme. The final result is likely to create a real original person.
An Jin briefly understood the settings of the original people, and they were definitely more powerful than the agents of justice. Therefore, without doing anything to the justice, An Jin had to consider accelerating the growth of the travelers, sending the justice to the guillotine, and then taking the ride of the siblings to leave Teyvat.
An Jin was offline again because of thinking about something, and Kei was very annoyed.
"Hey, even if you are my eldest brother, I can't stand it. Why are you always distracted? I will be very angry. Have you ever seen a fist as big as a sandbag?"
"Huh?" An Jin came back to his senses.
"Uh... It's nothing, I was just kidding." Kei was also the one who immediately became cowardly.
Shichi finally finished her gymnastics in a serious manner and stretched her muscles. "Ah, it feels so good to have a soft body, just like, alive."
It took a lot of time to complete the set of movements. Seeing this,
Kei hurriedly said: "Senior Shichi, Brother An, let's go quickly, if we don't leave now, we will have to go camping."
Shichi thought carefully for a while, and then took out a manual from her pocket, which read - Shichi's activity book. It seems that this is the notebook where Shichi plans to record her daily tasks. She finally did not forget to look at it.
"Oh!"
"What's wrong?"
"Shichi came here to help Hakubai pick Seishin, but I forgot..."
"Seishin? I remember that there are only one or two flowers of this kind on the top of the mountain..." Kei was a little unbelievable. After all, Shichi looked so young, and Master Hakubai was actually at ease?
Shichi: "I'm very good at climbing mountains, but I just forget..."
An Jin opened the elemental vision and looked for a while, then said: "Shichi, I think you should check your backpack. I seem to smell the scent of Seishin."
Shichi took off the backpack and opened it. It was true. It seems that she forgot her task on the way back from completing the task.
"So that's the case. Why didn't Shichi tick it off on her notebook? Strange..."
Kei smiled sideways, and An Jin covered his face and laughed.
What else could it be? Of course, it's because you forgot.
These white flowers were well preserved. It seems that although Shichi is forgetful, her muscle memory still allows her to retain many almost instinctive reactions.
"Wow, isn't it all done? Let's go!" Kei suggested.
Shichi shook her head: "Shichi doesn't like the sun, nor does she like hot things."
Kei: "Uh, are we going to travel at night? I can't do that either!"
An Jin couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh. Shichi is a zombie and will feel uncomfortable if the temperature is high, so even the Eye of God is of ice attribute.
Speaking of elemental attributes, let's just talk about it. Teyvat is the continent of elements. Everything in the world is divided into seven elements, namely wind, rock, thunder, fire, ice, grass, and water, corresponding to the seven main gods of Teyvat.
Speaking of which, An Jin asked Kei: "Kei, didn't you say that Liyue Harbor is a lousy place? Why do you want to go back now?"
Kei hesitated. There are naturally hardships of wandering outside. Sometimes it's not that you don't miss your hometown, but you deliberately don't think about it, but once you can really go back, the homesickness will be uncontrollable.
"Okay, okay, I know, you actually want to go back too, right?"
Kei nodded with a red face. The young man admitted that it was indeed difficult to go home.
Seeing this, Shichi took out a notebook and wrote down her new discovery - Kei is a family-loving child.
"Ah? Senior Shichi, please don't, you can't write this!"
"Ah, but I've already written it down..."
"Ah..." Kei almost rolled on the ground holding his face, "Senior Shichi, you swear that you will never show it to anyone else!"
"Yes, Shichi swears."
Kei was still worried. After all, he could easily see the contents of Shichi's notes. Forget it, why bother?
Anyway, he just wanted to feel at ease. Shichi didn't like the sun, Kei didn't want to travel at night, and An Jin also wanted to reach Liyue Port as soon as possible. What should he do?
An Jin looked at the clear sky. At this time, it should be forgivable to use some tricks, right?
"Okay, let's go." An Jin said.
"Huh? The sun is still in the sky..." Kei looked at the sky in shock, "I, why is this?"
An Jin smiled and explained, "Maybe, this is the climate in the mountains. The weather in the mountains is very changeable!"
The towering mountains will turn areas into microclimates, and often a gust of wind will cause weather changes, so strictly speaking, An Jin did not lie. But the truth is that An Jin only used some tricks.
"Well, the demon god's ability to change the weather is pretty good..."
In a blink of an eye, the valley was covered with dark clouds, and the sunlight was completely blocked.
"In this weather, it won't rain again, will it?" Kei didn't want to run anymore. It's easy to get sick if you get wet in the rain, so no one would run around on a rainy day.
But An Jin was very sure: "It won't rain, I'm sure."
"How can you be sure?"
"I just know it."
"Can you control the weather?"
"Silly child, who can control the weather except the gods?"
Kei nodded: "That's right!"
As he said that, An Jin asked Shichi: "How is the brightness?"
"It's a little dark."
After saying that, the sky actually became a little brighter. Shichi felt it and nodded happily.
Kei pointed at himself, then pointed at An Jin, and An Jin pointed to the distance.
"Let's go, it's finally good weather."
"I..."
So the three of them buried their heads and hurried on their way. What they didn't know was that because of this sudden dark cloud, the immortals hidden in the clouds all raised their heads.
"Hmm? Strange, why do I feel like there is a demon wandering around?"
After sensing for a long time, there was no news, so he had to give up.
Back to the other side, as the saying goes, a horse will die if it is seen from a mountain. The three of them traveled for three hours and walked less than one-tenth of the distance that took less than ten minutes in the game. So they continued to speed up the progress and finally bypassed a small hill before it was completely dark and reached an open area.
"Huh, we are finally here, Cuijue Slope, I am so tired, let's take a break..."
It was almost dark, and Kei couldn't walk anymore. Everyone had to find a suitable camping spot to light a fire, skin the squirrels they had shot during the day, remove the internal organs, apply the sauce Kei brought, and roast them.
An Jin felt very interesting, because the squirrels finally didn't have to drop meat directly.
A peaceful night passed like this, and Kei woke up early the next morning. Shichi didn't need to sleep at all, and An Jin didn't care, so the three of them continued on their way before the sun shone.
Before the sun was directly above them, they hurried along the road until they reached the foot of another mountain. This was still the foot of the Jueyunjian Mountains.
Then the three of them stopped again because Shichi didn't like the sun.
An Jin had no choice but to secretly use his little trick again to make the sky dark.
Kei was puzzled: "?"
The three of them continued to move forward, but were stopped by several soldiers when they passed a camp on the side of the road. They were the Qianyan Army, the official armed force of Liyue.
"Everyone, stop. The road ahead has been interrupted by the appearance of powerful monsters. If you want to go to Guiliyuan through this, please go south, follow the waterside, and finally cross the bridge."
"Is it true? Are there any monsters in this world that the Qianyan Army can't deal with?"
"I'm sorry, the ground veins have been active recently, and many monsters have been strengthened and mutated. Therefore, please understand."
Kei frowned: "But in this case, we have to walk half a day longer, and..."
Kei looked at Shichi, because she was there, and they couldn't move when the sun was shining, and a half-day journey would take a whole day.
"Are you reliable?"
The Qianyan soldier sighed helplessly, and then took out an administrative order from his pocket.
Kei carefully identified it, whether it was the paper material, the format of the text, the scent of the ink, or the official seal of Liyue, there was no problem.
He had no choice but to spread his hands and asked, "What should I do? Do I have to take a detour?"
