Chapter 848: Golden Hair's Complex Composition
"Dad, can you please tell me why you suddenly called me out? Don't you know that your handsome son is not fit to be seen by others in this state?"
Gu Sanqiu rubbed the side of his head to relieve the headache: "Don't tell me that your salary was all spent by my good uncle. Now you can't even afford a bowl of Zhongyuan offal."
Zhongli nodded, "Yeah, he bought a few bottles of Liyue's special wine as souvenirs, and I lost all my salary from last month."
Gu Sanqiu didn't believe it: "What about this month?"
“The salary hasn’t been paid yet.”
Gu Sanqiu's eyes widened: "Is the girl controlling you so strictly now?!"
Zhongli couldn't help but put his right hand on Gu Sanqiu's head, wanting to smash his rebellious son's head with his bare hands on the spot.
"Then you think I am under such strict control now? Who did the hall master discuss with to come up with those rules in the first place?"
Gu Sanqiu:?
It seems like it was me?
Oh, then there’s no problem. Just pretend I didn’t say that.
Anyway, I am just here to experience the identity of Wallet No. 1 for a short period of time. If nothing else, Wallet No. 2 will naturally take the lead.
Come on, duck!
Gu Sanqiu was confused in his heart, but on the surface he kept an expression as if nothing had happened, and even seemed a little confused about what he was suddenly asked to do.
"Feel the atmosphere of Liyue Harbor."
"Dad, are you the worm in my stomach?"
Gu Sanqiu spread out his perception and found a surprise.
In the retreat room of the Ten Gold Society, there was an obvious aura of three different elemental forces. To put it clichédly, it was like a bright light in the dark night.
Not only that, this aura is also constantly expanding, and even the plants and climate around the retreat area are slightly affected.
"My half-brother is finally going to break through?"
Gu Sanqiu tilted his head: "But I didn't feel the power of the Destiny Star either. Does that mean this kid hasn't awakened yet?"
Zhongli couldn't help but tap Gu Sanqiu on the head.
"He is not your biological brother. You almost know that he is a creature from another world. Why do you say such brainless words?"
Gu Sanqiu bared his teeth: "Dad, you are not gentle at all. Nashida just gently scratched my nose with her hand, believe it or not, I would switch to Xumi in a minute."
Zhongli said calmly: "It seems that it is time for you to experience fatherly love again. How about we have a conversation tonight?"
Talk by candlelight at night?
Are you sure it wasn't the kind of beating I got with a candle in the middle of the night, where he held a candle in one hand and beat me violently with the other hand?
"His destiny star is quite special. If it doesn't reach that level, it won't be possible to manifest externally."
Gu Sanqiu perked up: "Then, old man, do you know what's wrong with my destiny star? It's so easy for Keqing to light up the destiny constellation, why did it almost cost me half my life to light up the destiny constellation?"
It would be ridiculous if the quality of my hardware is not high, but from childhood to adulthood, there has been no rumors such as "Keqing is seriously injured and bedridden".
This is the problem. This is the evidence that Gu Sanqiu is certain that his destiny star is different from others.
"Who made you so greedy?"
Zhongli couldn't help but sigh: "The seat of destiny, to put it bluntly, is just an interpretation of the road and power, just like a signpost on the official road."
"For example, other people's constellations can only indicate directions within a few hundred miles, but you are trying to carve a guide for the entire Teyvat on an ordinary road sign."
"In this case, losing half your life is already an extremely lucky abnormal situation. Being bedridden for half a year is normal."
"You're full, but you didn't burst. This is your current situation. Do you understand?"
Gu Sanqiu understood, but he still felt that his father was tricking him.
Take Gui Zhongjue as an example. Judging from his performance just now, his father obviously knew the whereabouts of Gui Zhongjue, but just didn’t tell him.
If it weren't for Nashida, Gu Sanqiu might not have discovered it until the distant future.
If my father had told me the whereabouts of Guizhongjue at the beginning and told me how to retrieve the mysterious magic book hidden deep in my soul, would there be some record of it?
If this is the case, Nashida's riddle-telling style seems to be explained, because she couldn't tell herself this matter directly.
Could it be that Dad and the others want a character who "knows nothing but is gradually learning" as a key chess piece?
Only in this way can we ensure that "the Dharma will not be passed on to others" to a certain extent?
On the premise that a person is reliable enough, the human body and soul can also become one of the best confidential materials, as can be proved by so many celebrities and righteous men from ancient times to the present.
The same seems to be true for Golden Retriever, who asks the demons many things, and their answers are at most about the customs and habits of the next region, or what the personality of the ruling demon is like.
Apart from these, the information that Jinmao obtained, apart from what was leaked by Gu Sanqiu, was obtained through various risky ventures on his own.
Then why did I say that it was okay to go out, that I was also a special person, and that the abnormality of my destiny star was just a manifestation?
The obvious plot is the adventures of Golden Retriever, who becomes a sucker to help other countries solve various problems. The hidden plot is the history and truth that are gradually unearthed and recorded.
And in this process of "gradually knowing", is the existence of a bright line still doing something in the deeper darkness?
If it is called a deep line operation, then are the intelligence and information gradually released in the dark just a cover to confuse certain entities?
Gu Sanqiu quickly shook his head. This kind of thing was a vicious circle of logic. If he insisted on going on, it would definitely become a thousand-layer pancake maze that he could not get out of.
Zhongli walked towards the direction of the Ten Gold Association and said, "With your resources allocated to it, Kong's power is indeed growing day by day, but I didn't expect this day to come so soon."
"His strength has reached the level of an immortal. This step is indeed a bit fast ."
Gu Sanqiu said nonchalantly, "What's the big deal? Jinmao has a problem with his mentality. It's hard to say how much of his strength he can exert. Anyway, I've already told him that if he can't beat the small battle formation composed of ordinary people, he shouldn't return to Liyue."
Zhongli looked at Gu Sanqiu and said, "But your resources have been expended. If he doesn't return to Liyue, how are you going to make the money back?"
Gu Sanqiu said without hesitation: "Compared to that little bit of resources, I care more about my reputation. I don't want someone to spread the rumor that 'the immortals trained by Gu Xiangzun can't even break out of the battle formation of mortals'. Where will my face be?"
"Well, that's your style."
Zhongli smiled slightly: "It will probably only take these two days. Anyway, when the sky breaks through, someone will definitely show up and take action. You have to be careful."
Gu Sanqiu was stunned. "Someone? The Zhidong Nation is a religious group. If they want to cause trouble, shouldn't they target me? What's the point of targeting Jinmao?"
"The Kingdom of Solstice won't bother you. It's the Cult."
Zhongli explained: "According to Xiaohei's intelligence and the time calculation, something big might happen soon, and it's something that's closely related to them. At the moment, this is the only thing that can happen."
"Sora's identity is very important to them. Do you remember the time when I asked you to come back from Mond to save him?"
Gu Sanqiu's eyes were dead: "It was because of that incident that I started to wonder if he was my biological brother. Dad, do you mean it might happen again?"
"That's right."
Zhongli said confidently: "After becoming an immortal, Kong's strength will be greatly improved."
Gu Sanqiu narrowed his eyes and said, "It's not just that. There are so many fierce men and women in the Abyss Cult on the mainland. Why do they have to hold on to the golden hair? There must be other reasons."
"Be honest, Dad."
"I am a dragon."
Zhongli slapped Gu Sanqiu on the forehead: "Anyway, this matter is left to you. Make sure that Liyue Harbor does not suffer great damage. Do you understand?"
"Yes, sir!"
I really owe you in my previous life, Golden Retriever, and you even asked me to prepare these for you.
Gu Sanqiu bared his teeth.
For me, a member of a pure Eastern lineage, the process of becoming an immortal is equivalent to eating and drinking water. How come you, a guy from some unknown world, are willing to rob people of such a thing?
Do you want me to take action , and then shamelessly go to Inazuma and ask for a thunderbolt from heaven to make it more difficult for you?
There is no need to wait for several five hundred years. Young master, I will gather the three disasters of wind, fire and thunder for you in one go!
