Genshin Impact: The wind blowing back to the starting point

At that time, Qu Yun was already twenty, and he chose to stay in Zhuge. After all, for him at that time, he only had two relatives left, Wangyou and his younger brother.

Wangyou returned to the Zhuge Pavilion very late that day. Instead of coaxing them to eat together with a smile like before, he practiced swordplay alone on the edge of the cliff.

That night, Qu Yun saw his swordsmanship from a distance. Different from the free and elegant display he usually displayed, his swordsmanship that night was full of helplessness and anger.

Afterwards, he saw his younger brother looking for Wangyou, and Qu Yun did not come forward to disturb him.

After that, Wangyou began to become silent. He no longer took Qu Yun and the others to the top of the mountain, nor did he let them run on the running wheels. He usually stood on the edge of the cliff overlooking the village.

In the first year, he still joked occasionally;

The next year he was even more silent;

By the third year, he no longer even went to the village building day.

Qu Yun still remembers that day. Wangyou stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the village as usual. Qu Yun was by his side. Even though he was very worried, he didn't know what was wrong with him, so he didn't say much.

Suddenly, Wangyou asked, "Qu Yun, am I wrong?"

He asked this question without any clue, and Qu Yun didn't know how to answer, so he could only say: "You are not wrong. Since you are a god, how could you be wrong?"

Wangyou was not happy when he heard the answer. Instead, he smiled bitterly and said lightly: "Yes, since I am a god, how could I be wrong..."

At this point in the story, Qu Yun also smiled bitterly. He looked at Wendy and Ziling, his eyes full of sadness.

"If time and space could be reversed, I would definitely not answer that way, or maybe it was my younger brother who was with him at that time. After all, he knows Wangyou better than me..."

Qu Yun said angrily, burying his face in his hands, as if he was the real culprit.

He gathered his emotions and continued: "Later, his followers became fewer and fewer. Suddenly one day, Wangyou went out for a long time. After he came back, he suddenly summoned his last four followers in the village, including me, my brother, The aunt and an old man who have been bringing us food. He said he would send us out of the village. The wind direction in the village has changed. If we don't leave, we may not have the chance to leave later..."

Later, the aunt left because she was pregnant, and the grandfather did not leave because he was old.

As for Qu Yun and his younger brother, they said they would always follow Wangyou.

That night, Wangyou returned to his usual playful self. He took them to the top of the mountain to watch the moon. This time he did not leave quietly and watched them cry. Then he took out the running wheel that had been left aside for a long time and ran with them. For once he didn't sit back and laugh...

Qu Yun and his younger brother were fighting tirelessly with Wangyou.

No, not tirelessly, they are just afraid.

Wangyou's day was so unusual that they were afraid that after falling asleep, Wangyou would quietly send them out of the village or leave quietly.

However, in the end they fell asleep before dawn. I don't know what kind of magic Wangyou cast, but they fell asleep only three days later.

When I woke up, Wangyou's figure was long gone...

They ran through every road in the mountains but couldn't find a trace of Wangyou, so they came to the village.

At this moment, the village has long changed. There is only silence on everyone's face, and they don't say hello to each other when they meet. It's like they have suffered a big blow and everything is in vain.

An ominous premonition spread in their hearts, and they immediately ran to the main hall, which was locked and no longer open.

Regardless of all dissuasion and threats from the villagers, the younger brother forced everyone back with a sword, then cut the lock and pushed open the door.

Immediately afterwards, they saw the statue of the god bound by iron chains, and Wangyou, who was kneeling under the statue with a sword stuck in his body and had long since lost his life.

The two children immediately ran to Wangyou. They tried to wake him up, but they only saw his body dissipating little by little.

Then it turned into a bamboo leaf.

The moment the younger brother picked up the leaf, they saw the last words Wangyou left for them.

He said that the bamboo leaves have his last magical power and condensed his last wish. The bamboo leaves will protect us when we leave the village. After we go out, we can find a free and quiet place to bury the bamboo leaves. Maybe one day, we will also bury the bamboo leaves in a free and quiet place. Goodbye new way.

So, they held swords to force the villagers to let them come to the village entrance, but at the last moment, Qu Yun chose to stay, letting his brother leave with Wangyou's wish.

"Stay? Aren't you afraid that people in the village will make things difficult for you?" Wendy asked, looking at Qu Yun.

Facing Wendy's question, Qu Yun gave a bitter smile: "My grandfather was killed by the rebels in the chaos. If I leave, there will really be no believers left in the land he has guarded for many years. That way How lonely he must be, he obviously loves the excitement so much..."

"You are such a devout believer," Wendy sighed feebly, "Then how did you stay in the village?"

"Of course it relies on the blacksmithing skills passed down from our ancestors! At first they doubted me and sent people to keep an eye on me. But as time went by, they discovered that I did nothing but blacksmithing every day. They also worshiped the Demon-Suppressing Immortal. I worshiped nothing. And I built farm tools for them for free, just to have a place to hide. I’m such a victim, so why would the people in the village not keep me?”

Qu Yun's face was filled with a faked relaxed smile.

Looking at him, Wendy showed respect in her eyes. It must be easy to say, but in fact, the past sixteen years have been very hard. After all, as a believer of Wangyou, he is an anomaly.

And he didn’t know what Wangyou fed him. His appearance had not changed at all in the past sixteen years. In the eyes of the villagers, he was probably a monster.

At this time, Wendy suddenly thought of something. She raised her hand to conjure the arrow and handed it to Qu Yun: "Did this arrow come from your hand?"

Qu Yun took the arrow and looked at it. Just as he was about to touch the arrow, he was stopped by Wendy.

He observed for a long time and then shook his head: "It's not me. We have never learned the art of bow and arrow from Wangyou. We mostly use long spears and one-handed swords, so I have never made this thing."

After saying that, he handed the arrow back to Wendy: "However, this craftsmanship is very similar to that made by my family's technology. Maybe it was someone who learned the art from my father in those years."

"Then do you know who it is?"

"I don't know."

Hearing this, Wendy sighed helplessly. At this time, he noticed that Ziling had not spoken.

Worried, Wendy immediately sheathed her arrow and turned her head to look at Ziling.

I saw him holding the spear and looking at me with a pair of beautiful big eyes.

Seeing Wendy's look, Ziling immediately asked: "This Wangyou is also a demon god. How can he be killed by humans so easily?"

"I'm afraid he went to death on his own. He must have been desperate at that time, so he was willing to die in the hands of these people. Otherwise, as a god, he could have chosen to leave or send down the wrath of the gods..."

After hearing Wendy's explanation, the depression on Ziling's face became even more obvious.

Wendy patted his shoulder to express comfort: "Well, the Demon God of the Floating World has no favors for this floating world and is also full of disappointment in human beings. Maybe it is also a relief for him."

Then, Wendy turned her head and looked at Qu Yun again: "After you have said so much, it's my turn. I only want to ask two questions. Let me talk about the first one first. The one you said is closer to Wangyou. The man is the younger brother, what’s his name?”

"His name was given by Wangyou, very casually. It is said that Wangyou picked him up at sunset, and then he wanted the child to be upright and upright, so he named him Duzhu with the character for bamboo."

"Mu Zhu!?" Ziling rushed to Qu Yun with a face full of shock.

From the beginning, Wendy guessed that the person was Mu Zhu, so he was not very shocked.

At first, when Ziling said she couldn't remember what she said, Wendy guessed that Ziling had lost control of his body when he accidentally saw things in the past.

It was also at that time that Mu Zhu took the opportunity to say those words.

And when Qu Yun mentioned that younger brother, he felt as if he was closer to Wangyou, both inside and outside his words. In addition, Mu Zhu said before that he would not tell him the cause and effect because he was afraid that he would have subjective emotions.

Therefore, Wendy guessed the result.

"What, do you know Mu Zhu? How is he doing now? Is he okay?"

Ziling was startled and didn't know how to answer.

Wendy immediately said: "He is now a monk under the Rock King, and his current personality is very similar to the naughty Wangyou you mentioned."

Hearing this, the expression on Qu Yun's face stiffened for a moment, then he smiled faintly and murmured softly: "I didn't expect you to live like him..."

These words sounded so familiar that Wendy couldn't help but frown.

But soon, he looked at Qu Yun and asked: "Okay, second question, telling us this story has helped us. Is there any purpose?"
