Genshin Impact: Zhongli discovered that he was stealing tributes at the beginning

"It's it!"

The junior brother's eyes were broken, he held the hilt of his sword and shouted angrily.

Senior brother also saw clearly who was coming, it was the monster that devoured children back then!

This monster has become more powerful in just a few years, and is already more than ten meters long. It is like a bloodthirsty ferocious beast, with a huge body and luxuriant muscles. Its eyes reveal a ferocious light, and its gaze is cold and sharp. When it noticed the two humans raising weapons in front of it, its fangs were exposed and were as sharp as knives.

The two brothers frowned, pursed their lips, bent their bodies slightly, tensed their muscles, and raised their swords in a fighting posture.

"Boom!" The lightning fell again. This time, the two brothers could clearly see the monster's whole body. It had injuries on it!

The skin on the monster's body was originally covered with thick hair, but the hair faded away, revealing a hideous and huge wound. It was obviously caused by a gun, which penetrated directly through the monster's abdomen, and the monster's body was covered with large and small scars. , as if it had been torn apart by the violent wind, and black-red blood was gurgling.

From these, we can see that the enemy the monster encountered not long ago was too fast and fierce! In just a short moment, the monster lost its fighting spirit and fled in defeat.

The monster looked at the two brothers, and green saliva unconsciously flowed from the corner of its mouth. It was seriously injured and needed to eat people to recover.

It let out a deep roar from its mouth, took steps forward, and its huge body slowly pressed towards the brothers, trying to force them to feel fear and despair.

But it was obviously in vain. The eyes of the two senior brothers were as calm as the sea water. Under the water, there was a storm that was about to surge. They stood there and looked directly at the monster.

"Ow, hiss!"

The monster felt that it had been slighted, and it let out a roar that was deafening, as if it could tear the air.

The monster's whole body was filled with a violent aura, and it finally opened its claws and rushed forward like thunder toward the two brothers.

"Senior brother, be careful!"

The junior brother warned loudly. Faced with the monster's attack, he did not choose to block it for the first time. Instead, he raised his sword and faced it.

Senior brother and junior brother have participated in too many battles together, and they have a tacit understanding. When he saw his junior brother rushing forward, the senior brother took a step back to avoid the edge of the monster's claws, and then held the sword to attack from the left side.

The junior brother raised his sword and stabbed horizontally, and the sword blade sliced ​​open the monster's right forefoot.

"Woo!"

The monster screamed in pain, then raised its left front palm and slapped the junior brother. The junior brother was as light as a swallow and leaned back, narrowly avoiding the monster's attack.

While the monster was entangled with his junior brother, the senior brother had already come to the side of the monster, and circulated the zhenqi obtained from practicing the exercises throughout his body, pouring it into the sword in his hand, and the sword body emitted a white light.

He pointed the edge of the sword at the monster's ferocious wound, and a burst of sword energy as bright as day burst out, hitting Huanglong. The sword energy kept cutting into the monster's abdomen, and a large amount of blood flew out. Both of them were covered in black and red blood.

"what!"

The monster screamed extremely fiercely, but it didn't fall down yet. Its vitality was too tenacious! Even though it was injured by an immortal not long ago, and now the wounds have been deepened by the two brothers, it still maintains its fighting ability.

With a sound of "Bang!", the monster stepped down angrily, impacting the rock floor and causing the ground to tremble. Black energy rises from the monster's body, and it is frantically stimulating the power contained in all the blood in its body.

"Junior brother, it's not good! You must be careful! I feel the power of the elements from it."

"I will!"

During the lightning and thunder, the monster in front of him flickered on and off, with blue light patterns flowing all over his body. He had heard that Chi controlled the power of the water element, and now it seemed that this should be the case.

The two senior brothers gathered together and watched the changes in the monster with vigilance, not daring to act rashly.

The monster finally completed its transformation. Its whole body was covered with an aqua blue barrier, and it continuously absorbed the surrounding water elements to replenish itself with energy.

"Junior brother! Let's retreat first! It's still raining heavily, and the environment is too favorable for it."

The senior brother spoke.

"No! Senior brother, have you forgotten? We have already escaped once, and now it is seriously injured. If we don't seize the opportunity this time, we will never be able to kill it in the future!"

After the junior brother finished speaking, he rushed towards the monster with firm eyes.

"Junior brother! Don't be impulsive!"

The senior brother hurriedly followed, anxious.

The monster watched the two people in front of him step forward again, with a look of contempt, as if looking at ants.

When they approached, it hit the ground with both hands, and a huge water-rippled aperture vibrated. The junior brother was too close to the front and had no time to avoid. He was the first to bear the brunt and was directly knocked away several meters away. He fell from the mid-air, with a mouthful of blood in his mouth. Vomiting blood, he passed out instantly, and the sword in his hand was missing.

"Senior brother!"

The senior brother roared angrily, but he still retained his sanity. First, he used his legs to jump up. While avoiding the light circle, he held the sword and used the Shengyan Thorn on the monster's head. The tip of the sword successfully penetrated the monster's eyebrows. But it can only break a little, because the monster's barrier is too strong.

"Jie Jie", the monster let out a weird laugh, pushed forward with its hard head, and directly knocked the senior brother away. The senior brother was bleeding in the air, and fell from the air as hard as the junior brother, but he did not fall into coma. He climbed up with difficulty holding his sword.

The monster saw that the senior brother was still conscious, but it did not intend to continue to struggle with him. It had consumed too much blood and essence, and it needed to recover from its wounds quickly, otherwise it would not have a chance to escape when it encountered the short immortal again.

The monster ignored the senior brother and walked quickly towards the direction where the junior brother fell. It planned to kidnap this human and find a safe place to taste it. A human with true energy in his body is definitely a great tonic!

"Beast! You evil beast! Come at me! Come at me if you have the guts!"

The senior brother was roaring heart-wrenchingly behind him. His eyes were red, and he didn't know whether it was rain or tears. He was seriously injured and could no longer use his body freely, but he gritted his teeth, raised his sword and rushed forward with all his strength!

"Beast! Die!!!"

The monster heard the voice behind him and turned around to see this human holding a sword and staggering over. If he could speak human language, he would definitely laugh and taunt loudly:

"Haha, hahaha! He walked towards me like a child holding up a wooden sword, thinking that he was a charging warrior, but he was nothing more than an ant."

The monster stood there waiting for the ridiculous attack coming from the human in front of it. Its whole body was surrounded by aqua light patterns, the sky was lightning and thunder, the wind was strong, and the rain was pouring down. All living things were afraid of this scene. He is the only one standing here, and in this storm, he feels like he is the king!

The senior brother's blow finally came. In the eyes of the monster, it was like a child holding a wooden sword, and it penetrated its heart.

It opened its eyes wide and couldn't believe how the strong barrier on its body could not block this continuous blow. The king fell!

"Oh!"

The monster's huge body fell to the ground. At this time, it looked at the sky and found that the storm suddenly stopped.

But there was still light rain falling in the sky, and the clouds had not completely dispersed. A beam of light fell down, and the sun did not show its head. Where did the light come from? !

No one can answer the doubts in the monster's heart, because it has completely lost its vitality.

The senior brother looked up and saw an Eye of God of Rock Element slowly descending from the sky. The Eye of God emitted a dazzling light and enchanted the edge of his sword with rock element. He had just been able to break through the monster's defense, causing One hit kill.

The senior brother finally had the Eye of God, and he was too late to be happy. He hurriedly ran to the junior brother's side to check the situation. Fortunately, the junior brother only suffered some internal injuries and was not seriously injured.

The senior brother took the junior brother to a dry place as a temporary camp. He spread some hay in the camp, placed the junior brother on it, and silently guarded him.

After a long time, Junior Brother woke up leisurely.

"Eh?! Senior brother, are you dead too?!"

The junior brother opened his eyes and saw the pale senior brother, and said in surprise.

"If you die, we will all live well. You can't be so reckless next time."

The senior brother knocked the junior brother on the head and scolded him.

"That's okay, huh?! Is that evil beast?! Senior brother, could it have escaped again? This time we really let the tiger return to the mountain!"

"No, I want to find it right away! I can't let him ruin lives anymore."

The junior brother shouted excitedly, then touched the hilt of his sword and said doubtfully:

"Brother, where is my sword? You shouldn't have hidden it, right?"

"Ahem, I don't know where your sword has gone. Don't get excited. Look at what I have in my hand."

The junior brother looked at the thing in the senior brother's hand, a stone emitting golden light? wrong! It's the Eye of God! Eye of the Rock Elemental God!

"Brother, how did you get it? Could it be that the emperor was moved by us? Long live the emperor! What happened when I was unconscious? Is that monster dead?"

The senior brother felt very headache after listening to the series of questions from his junior brother. He was already exhausted after the battle, and now he had to suffer the mental torture from his junior brother. He couldn't bear it anymore and passed out directly.

"Senior brother! Are you okay?! Wake up...why did you faint after I fainted? Then it's time for me to get the Eye of God, hehe."

The junior brother saw that his senior brother was just too tired and fainted, nothing serious, so he went out to find his sword first.

The junior brother came to the place where he fought the monster before. He found the monster's huge body and found his sword nearby. Then he raised his sword and chopped into the monster's body crazily.

From head to toe, the junior brother chopped it into pieces. When the tide comes, only a set of white bones will be left.

He was covered in blood, so he ran to the beach to clean himself, then picked a few fish with his sword and returned to the camp. While making a fire, he made a wooden frame and started grilling the fish.

"It smells good."

The senior brother was awakened by the aroma of grilled fish.

"Senior brother, get up quickly and try my grilled tiger fish. My grilling technique is top-notch."

"Haha, I eat it every day, how could I not know that your grilled fish is delicious?"

"Hey, senior brother, let's make an agreement. Now that you have the Eye of God, after killing all the monsters in the world, we can find a place to live in seclusion. You can fish and I can grill the fish. How about it?"

"it is good."

……

"Senior brother?! Why did you deliberately release that monster? I could have killed it with one sword."

"It has done no evil, so why should we kill it all?"

"No?! You wouldn't say that you have telepathy again and know if it has done any evil, right?"

"correct."

"Correct?! How are you sure that your induction is correct? How can you guarantee that it will not do evil in the future?"

"Junior brother, I...I'm sorry, I can't do it."

"Emperor Yanwang should not have given you the Eye of God. You have become so soft-hearted. Have you forgotten our original oath? Have you forgotten how those monsters slaughtered people?"

"But some monsters are good in nature..."

"Brother, stop talking! I don't want to hear these words from you, just don't stop me next time."

The senior brothers have lost count of how many times they have quarreled.

Since leaving Guyun Pavilion, the two senior brothers traveled around the Tiwat continent to continue to eliminate demons and defend the way. However, as more and more monsters were killed, the junior brother discovered that the senior brother had changed.

……

"Junior brother, where are you going?!"

"Don't call me 'junior brother' anymore. I don't have a senior brother like you. You broke our oath! You don't deserve to have this Eye of God at all."

"Junior brother? Junior brother! Junior brother..."

This was their last quarrel and they went their separate ways, no longer fighting together.

……

The senior brother returned to Aozang Mountain alone. This was the place where he and his junior brother devoted themselves to training. At that time, they were both young and high-spirited, motivating each other and practicing together. But now...

The senior brother planned to spend his whole life in Aozang Mountain. He also erected a stone tablet and wrote the following inscription:

The Eye of God... is truly an extraordinary thing. Everyone in the world says that this thing is a gift from God. But no one can tell who can obtain this divine object or why.

I read in the classics that someone said that God is merciful to people, and that the Eye of God is given by God to the outstanding mortals to help them subjugate demons and protect the world. But I... have no desire to cleanse myself of monsters. I just want to communicate with them and explore their essence.

This eye of God... just don't want it.

Therefore, the senior brother buried the Eye of God, which had always accompanied him in battles and helped him save the day from danger, under the stone tablet.

Some days later, he erected another stone tablet with the inscription:

Although I was lucky enough to receive God’s eyes, I still had doubts in my heart. There are endless monsters in the world. With the power of ordinary people, when can we clean up the world? Moreover, those monsters can speak, are good at crafts, and have emotions, anger, sorrow, and joy. Apart from their appearance, they are actually the same as humans...

I have engraved the questions in my mind on the monument. I wonder if future generations who will look at this monument can answer my questions?

Are the monsters in the world born evil?

Are all the immortals in the world born good?

When we protect the world, do we only judge evil and righteousness with our own minds?

……

After being separated from his senior brother, he returned to Guyun Pavilion. This was the most dangerous battle he and his senior brother had ever experienced. He killed the ferocious monster with his own hands. Unfortunately, his senior brother could no longer fight with him.

The junior brother never obtained the Eye of God, but he never forgot his original intention and was obsessed with killing all the monsters in the world. He erected a stone tablet in Guyun Pavilion, and the inscription read:

My senior brother has obtained the Eye of God and is supposed to cleanse the world of monsters, but he asked me, are the monsters in the world born evil? These monsters are causing trouble in the world and harming innocent people. Aren't they extremely evil? I think senior brother is really practicing so much that people are dumbfounded!

Forget it, even without the Eye of God, I can wipe out the monsters by myself!

Monsters in the world are inherently harmful. We have been practicing martial arts for a long time, and it is our duty to eliminate demons and defend the law.

To deal with those monsters, all you need to do is eliminate evil!

The junior brother left the stone tablet and left, setting out alone with his sword to continue completing what he had not yet accomplished.

Occasionally one day, my junior brother heard that there were monsters in Dihuazhou that were causing harm to the people, so he excitedly set out to go there.

No one knows why so many monsters suddenly appeared in Dihuazhou. Some people speculate that the remnants of the devil escaped and controlled many monsters to protect their resurrection rituals.

Because Dihuazhou is the border area of ​​Liyue, Emperor Yanwang once fought with many demon gods here. In the end, the emperor single-handedly sealed these demon gods underground in Dihuazhou. In order to prevent the demon gods from resurrecting, Emperor Yanwang specially sent General Jinpeng, one of the three-eyed and five-manifold immortals, is guarding here.

The junior brother killed countless monsters in Dihuazhou. There were many dangers and he was besieged by many monsters. Fortunately, a young immortal helped him to rescue him in time and told the junior brother not to go deep. After all, he did not have the eyes of God and had to use his own power. Safety is paramount.

The junior brother nodded gratefully, but he would forget about it afterwards. Every time he fought with a monster, he would become red-eyed and would not think about other things. He only thought about how to get rid of the monsters in front of him!

Those who are good at fighting die in fighting.

During a battle, the junior brother fell into the trap of a monster, went deep into the reeds, was ambushed, and was seriously injured.

The young immortal arrived late because he had recently discovered the reason why there were so many monsters in Dihua Continent - a demonic remnant controlled these monsters. It was also thanks to his junior brother, because he killed so many monsters that the demonic remnant thought that Discover yourself.

While controlling the monsters to lure the enemy to surround and kill his junior brother, He planned to find a new place to hide. However, a flaw was exposed. The young immortal seized this flaw and chased after the demon god's remnant, spending a lot of time to completely clean him out.

When he came to his junior brother, he found that his junior brother was dying by the river.

"Didn't I tell you? You are a mortal, why do you want to go deep to kill the enemy?!"

"Haha, it doesn't matter. It's okay to die, because I know that I will never be able to get rid of all the monsters in my lifetime."

The junior brother smiled miserably. His body was covered with wounds of all sizes, and there was blood all over his body, staining the river next to him red.

"Immortal...I have something to ask you...can you?"

The young immortal knew that his junior brother could not be saved and that his life was not long, so he had no choice but to nod.

"I have a senior brother...if...ahem"

The junior brother couldn't stop coughing up blood from the corner of his mouth, and he continued:

"If he comes to me, please tell him... ahem... I don't hate him anymore... I want to cook grilled fish for him again."

After finishing speaking, the junior brother closed his eyes completely and lost his breath.

The young immortal was silent and buried his junior brother in the place where he had fought countless battles and killed countless monsters during his lifetime.
