Section 334
As a great sage, his position in Xumi is second only to one person and above ten thousand people.
The young master sighed all the way, worthy of being the person favored by the Queen. At this point, there is nothing that can be hidden from Zhidong about Xumi.
Thinking of this, the young master felt that Su Chen's figure suddenly became particularly great.
However, this great figure suddenly stopped when he pushed open the door of Jingshan Palace and was about to go in.
"Brother Su Chen?"
Is it not that you just remembered that this is the residence of God and you have to report it?
"Hmm..."
Zhongli raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked inside along the gap between Su Chen's shoulder and the palace door. He didn't see it very clearly, but the vague breath he felt from inside made him feel a little familiar... It seemed to be the same feeling at the last Lantern Festival, right?
"Young master, let's go." He turned around and said immediately.
"Ah?" The young master was stunned. "What's wrong?"
"Let's go."
"But brother Su Chen is still..."
"Can't be saved."
"???"
Just when the young master was wondering what the three words "can't be saved" meant, a pair of slender arms stretched out from the Jingshan Palace, grabbed Su Chen's collar and pulled him in, and then with a bang, the door of the Jingshan Palace closed again.
The young master pointed at the door in surprise, looked at Zhongli and then at the direction of the door, and said "Aba Aba" in his mouth, meaning "Mr. Zhongli, look!"
Who knew that Zhongli actually left without looking back, and his speed was like a disabled person who had successfully rehabilitated, flying fast.
"Hey, Mr. Zhongli, wait for me!"
Although I don't know what happened, it's right to listen to Mr. Zhongli!
...
This way.
In the Jingshan Palace.
Su Chen sat in the hollow pavilion woven with vines and looked at the three people at the same table - the Great Compassion Tree King, the Flower God and Asmodeus. Outside the pavilion, Nashida was swinging on the swing.
"That..." Su Chen broke the silence, coughed lightly, and said: "Asmodeus, welcome to Xumi."
Asmodeus said calmly: "They have already welcomed you."
"Ha... Really? How do you feel in Xumi? The recent Knowledge of Tibetan Day should be quite lively."
"Yeah, quite lively."
"I heard that Nashida took you around these two days?" Su Chen turned around and waved to Nashida on the swing, "Come here quickly."
Nashida was about to go over, but saw the flower god put down the teacup and said woodenly: "Nashida, you have nothing to do here."
"I suddenly remembered that the teacher gave me a book that I haven't read yet. He still wants to test me. Father, mother, I'm going to study."
The Great Compassion Tree King nodded slightly: "Go."
Nashida jumped off the swing, made a cheering gesture to Su Chen, and then ran out of the Jingshan Palace without looking back.
"Okay, let's talk about business." The Flower God held his heavy chest with both hands, looked at Su Chen and Asmodeus, and finally looked at the latter, "Asmodeus, the maintainer of Heaven's Law, why did you come to Xumi?"
Although Nashida said that she came to find her father, considering Asmodeus's identity, it seemed unlikely, but Asmodeus didn't say it, which made the situation in Xumi extremely tense in the past two days.
Nashida was heartless. The Grass God took the maintainer shopping. The Flower God knew Asmodeus's identity and her temperament even better. Because of this, she didn't kill people when she came to Xumi, which was too confusing.
Anyway, she didn't like Asmodeus. When the fairy clan was cursed, it was also carried out by the maintainer himself, even though it was Heaven's Law that issued the order.
Asmodeus looked at Su Chen.
"How should I answer her?"
Although Asmodeus's emotional intelligence is not high, he still has brains. In the past two days, he has learned about the situation of the Great Compassion Tree King and the Flower Goddess. Both of them are Azir's lovers, in other words, they are her mistresses.
Asmodeus, the former subordinate, has turned over and is now the mistress. Of course, he will not take the initiative to clarify the situation with the Flower Goddess. Anyway, let Lord Phanes decide in the end.
Su Chen rubbed his temples, feeling very upset.
Originally, he didn't want the Flower Goddess to know the truth.
But now he can't hide it.
"Actually..."
"Actually, there's nothing strange about it." The Great Compassion Tree King interrupted what Su Chen was about to say and chuckled: "Malikata, you also know Su Chen's other identity, right? As one of the rulers, Asmodeus came to him, which must be related to the important things of the whole Teyvat."
Su Chen was startled, and seeing the smile in the eyes of the Great Compassion Tree King, he immediately understood that this skilled and virtuous wife was trying to smooth things over for him.
Although the Great Compassion Tree King didn't know what Su Chen had to hide, since it was difficult to say, it proved that it was not easy to tell them, at least not easy to tell the Flower God.
If not, Asmodeus should have said it long ago.
"Is it related to the entire Teyvat?" The Flower Goddess looked at Su Chen suspiciously. She was not doubting the latter, but purely because of Asmodeus. The two did not get along well on Sky Island before, and coupled with the experience of the Fairy Clan, the reason they did not fight was purely because she could not beat the other party.
"Well... yes, this matter is very important, it is related to Sky Island and the Abyss, so I have not told you." Su Chen lied a white lie.
"Is that so." The Flower Goddess tilted her head, "Asmodeus, weren't you and Azir enemies before?"
Asmodeus still didn't speak, looking at Su Chen.
Hey, hey, hey, can you not be so obvious? Stupid woman! ...Su Chen said: "There is no eternal enemy. Now is the time for Teyvat to unite against the outside world. Shurima is at least a part of Teyvat."
"Common enemy?"
"Abyss." Asmodeus understood Su Chen's thoughts and said lightly: "The power of the abyss is getting stronger and stronger. This time I came to find Fa... Sugras to deal with this matter."
"Well..." The flower god drank a sip of tea in silence, "Is that so... Asmodeus, there is nothing to talk about between us."
Asmodeus nodded: "Agree."
Hearing this, the flower god stood up and his figure gradually disappeared: "I'll go back to the desert first."
Asmodeus watched her leave, then looked at Su Chen and the Great Compassion Tree King, and stood up as well.
"I'll go find Nashida, you guys can talk."
All of a sudden, a crisis seems to be resolved?
Even Su Chen found it incredible.
"Surprised?" The Great Compassion Tree King smiled slightly, "Actually, Marikata knows it in her heart, she just doesn't want to expose it... Besides, her emotions are not directed at you, but because of Asmodeus."
The so-called discussion on dealing with the abyss is too far-fetched. Since it is Sugras instead of Azir, why not go to Mond?
It's just that the flower god doesn't want to embarrass Su Chen on this matter.
"I know, but Asmodeus didn't do anything wrong in some things."
"No one is wrong." The Great Compassion Tree King said leisurely, "This world is like this, the world is fragile, not to mention the fate of people and the fate of races. Sometimes cruelty is also for protection."
As the incarnation of the world tree, she peeked into the past and the future from the world tree, and knew more than other demons. She also knew that there is no absolute right or wrong. The world created by the law of nature, the purpose of His creation is not to destroy this world...As long as this is understood, then all the crimes of the sky can be crowned as cruelty for the purpose of "protection".
Whether it is destroying civilization or bringing down a curse.
Sometimes you have to give up a few people in order to protect more people, just like the train problem. Human nature will hesitate, but the sky did not hesitate. He just sat on what he should do. Perhaps it was this unhesitating decision that caused hatred.
"You are still smart." Su Chen smiled helplessly, "I actually..."
The finger of the Great Compassion Tree King gently pressed on Su Chen's lips.
"You don't have to tell me." She smiled, "If you know but can't do anything, then it's better to work hard in ignorance and do what you can."
The less you know about the secrets of the sky, the better.
"Thank you, Great Compassion Tree King."
Su Chen gently hugged her in his arms.
"What? I chose to be with you, not for you to say thank you to me."
"Ah? But it's not appropriate here, what if someone comes in..."
"What are you thinking?" The Great Compassion Tree King rolled his eyes at him unhappily, "I mean, since I choose to be with you, I will support you no matter what, so please believe me."
"I know." Su Chen smiled slightly.
Tree King, Tree King, how can I not love you?
"But..." Daci Tree King suddenly smiled, "Support is support, but there are still some things to do."
After that, she flipped her hand and took out a branch of the world branch covered with twigs.
"When you finish solving the world, don't forget this."
Su Chen: "..."
...
In the next two days, Su Chen went to Narimaj and found the flower god. No matter what, his wife still had to coax her.
But he decided to keep it secret about Tianli's identity.
Other vests can be removed, but only the identity of Tianli, except for the four rulers, he does not intend to tell anyone else.
After all, sometimes Tianli has to do things that are really beyond his control.
Daci Tree King understands this, she may have vaguely guessed some, but when civilization is really destroyed in the hands of Tianli, even if she understands it, she can't help but hate it. This is the case with the flower god and the fairy clan.
Fortunately, the flower god is not angry. As Daci Tree King said, the reason why she is angry is because Asmodeus is there.
This gave Su Chen a headache.
One was his wife.
The other was his housekeeper.
It was reasonable to favor his wife, but the housekeeper had been wronged for more than three thousand years, so he was wrong!
After thinking about it, he decided to let the two of them meet less often in the future.
Well, if the matter of the abyss was resolved, Asmodeus would probably stay on Sky Island forever... Su Chen was a little confused about this. He had thought of ten thousand reasons to apologize, but none of them were used. Instead, Asmodeus took the initiative to find him and apologized to him.
This was very strange.
But no matter what, it was definitely a good thing.
