Ruo Tuo is of great significance to Zhongli. It was he who gave Ruo Tuo the eyes that allowed him to see the world clearly. In the end, it was he who worked with the Xian family to seal each other back to the underground.
So even though Zhongli didn't urge him, Wendy still picked up Qianfeng and brought Zhongli and Sasuke to the place where they met Kunjun before.
At this time, Kunjun was standing next to a huge ore, stroking the ore with his hands while looking towards the direction of Liyue Port.
After Zhongli saw Kunjun, he jumped down from the air, but slowed down and walked to Kunjun's side.
Kunjun also noticed someone approaching and looked here.
After his eyes stayed on Zhongli for a moment, he let out a puzzled hum, and then looked like Wendy.
"Are you... the bard from just now?"
Kunjun's voice was very easy-going, not at all as arrogant and furious as the sealed Ruotuo Dragon King that Sasuke met when he was at the Dragon Tree.
It's just that he didn't seem to fully recognize Zhongli.
Wendy raised her hand to say hello to Kunjun.
"Didn't I just promise to help you find someone? Now that the person has been found, see if this is the person you are looking for."
Kunjun shook his head.
"Something looks familiar, but it doesn't seem to be the one I'm looking for. What I'm looking for is Morax, the Rock King of Liyue."
Paimon also got out of Sasuke's backpack at this time. She had listened to the whole process in the backpack just now. When she saw this scene, she scratched her head in confusion, came to Sasuke's side and asked:
"Didn't Wendy say that he is Ruotuo Dragon King? Why don't you recognize the Rock God?"
Sasuke shook his head and said he didn't know either.
"Really? Then take a closer look."
At this time Wendy spoke up and nudged Zhongli with her elbow.
Zhongli stared at Kunjun for a moment, but made no move.
It was Wendy's turn to be anxious.
"Hey, old man, what's the matter with you? Are you still hiding me now? Even your family members can't recognize you."
"I can't be here, at least for now, so I can't let the people in Liyue Port know that I'm still alive."
"It's part of the contract."
"……All right."
Zhongli mentioned the contract, and Wendy immediately changed his tune.
He knew that Zhongli, the God of Contracts, valued contracts, and now it seemed that Zhongli's fake death was part of the contract.
"Now what?"
"Go to Fulongshu. Things will naturally progress there."
"He is not the complete Dragon King Ruotuo, but a fragment of Ruotuo's will possessed by a Liyue citizen. This place is too far away from Ruotuo's body, and the influence it can have is very weak."
"Thanks to Dragon King Ruotuo's will being strong enough, the worn-out body was able to cross so many mountains and rivers and still retain the idea of finding me."
When he spoke to the end, Zhongli's tone contained a hint of emotion.
He stretched out his hand towards Kunjun.
"Would you like to find your memories together?"
"Old friend."
Kunjun stared blankly at the familiar stranger in front of him, as if he could see him bringing him from the dark underground to the surface and giving him the eyes to see things clearly.
Although his memory was still blurry, he unconsciously stretched out his hand and held it with the other person.
"good."
…
After arriving near the Fulong Tree, Wendy removed the barrier she had laid before and came to the stone monument she had seen before.
Kunjun touched the stone tablet in front of him, and his chaotic consciousness finally returned to clarity.
He closed his eyes, and an aura of vicissitudes of life began to emanate from his body.
This is the power that belongs to the earth and the followers of the Rock God.
"I remember, Morax, I finally found you."
At the same time, the same power overflowed from Zhongli's body, but it was more oppressive and majestic.
He stood side by side with Kunjun.
"I never thought that after a thousand years, I would have such an opportunity to stand with you."
"Haha, I didn't expect that either."
After arriving next to Fulongshu, Kunjun spoke with much more energy and his expression became more agile.
"I really miss it. The seal was leaked before, and my evil thoughts leaked out of the seal and turned into a little girl named Ajiu. The original plan was to trick passers-by to dig out the seal for him, and then cooperate inside and outside to work together.
Break the seal."
"At that time, I also went out together. At that time, I just wanted to find you as soon as possible to stop my behavior."
"Following Shitou's memory all the way to Liyue Port, I heard from this generation of Liyue people that you had just fallen. At that time, I was completely devastated. If you also fell, who else in this world could stop me?"
"I wanted to take advantage of the fact that my consciousness was still there to remember the last days of Liyue Port, the country that you and I jointly created and jointly protected, but I didn't expect that the remaining consciousness would suddenly become chaotic. Come to think of it, this is also the same as before.
It has something to do with the barrier set up by the wind god of the neighboring country."
"It's just Morax, you have always been diligent, why did you choose to fake your death for no reason? Let Liyue be in chaos."
Upon hearing Kunjun's words, Paimon and Wendy on the side also pricked up their ears.
They also want to know the reason.
"..."
After a moment of silence, Zhongli finally spoke:
"Back then, you were sealed by me because of wear and tear, but now, I can't escape either."
"When it's time to leave, leave."
"After thousands of years of erosion, even rocks will occasionally feel tired."
He did not answer directly, but explained the reason sideways.
tired.
"I see, you are tired too."
It was clear that Kunjun was possessed by Ruotuo Dragon King. He opened his arms, and the vast aura on his body became even more intense.
"Then, after stopping my plan, you can have a good rest."
Zhongli also raised his hands.
"good!"
As they moved simultaneously, the Fulong tree began to shake, and then the ground next to the tree cracked, revealing a spacious tunnel, and at the end of the tunnel, there was a golden light composed of mysterious symbols.
This is the seal that suppresses Ruoduo Dragon King, but some of the symbols on it have begun to become blurred.
This is why the seal is loose.
"Wait a minute, old man."
"Didn't I tell you before that Sasuke has a pair of peculiar eyes?"
Just when Zhongli was about to repair the seal, Wendy spoke up.
"Um?"
Zhongli paused what he was doing and looked at Wendy.
"Sasuke's eyes can absorb negative emotions. When I first arrived with him, he tried to absorb the resentment caused by the wear and tear of the Rudo Dragon King, but it failed. However, it was successful when he helped Tevalin before, so I think it is necessary to
If you don't give it a try, after you and Rudo Dragon King's will work together to suppress it, and then Sasuke tries to absorb it, maybe Rudo Dragon King can slowly recover?"
This proposal greatly moved Zhongli, but he finally shook his head and said:
"The wear and tear of Ruotuo is far beyond what people can imagine. Doing so would probably be very risky."
