I'm a male god in Liyue

Page 289

“He is an Outer God, I am an Old God, and for some special reasons I was saved by him, so calling him cousin isn’t a bad thing.”

"..."

"Shen He, you probably don't understand."

"No, I understand."

"Oh? Tell me about it!"

"Did not say."

"You're so stingy. I even shared some potato chips with you."

"boss."

"Here, have a bag too."

"thank you boss."

"Shen He, shouldn't you call me husband?"

"I want you to manage."

"Cousin, isn't it more exciting to call him 'boss'?"

"you are hopeless."

"Speaking of which, how long have you been living this leisurely life in your dreams?"

"Has it been more than a month?"

"More than a month in the real world?"

"Ah."

"Then it's been almost a year in the dream? Oh, I see, I understand now!"

"What do you understand?"

"So you like raising pets."

"?"

"No wonder you like Yao Yao..."

"I didn't, I didn't, don't talk nonsense. So many spicy snacks can't shut you up."

"It's because my cousin's spicy strips are too small."

"??...You weren't like this before. Did you learn bad habits from Ying'er these past few days?"

"What do you mean by 'learning bad habits'? I just learned a little bit of the art of language from her."

"If you didn't learn it well, don't try to learn it next time."

"I'll study!"

"Cousin, you don't want to be unable to enter this room to play games in the future, do you?"

"...I think my cousin is right. What kind of talk is it for a girl to like driving big trucks all the time!"

Do you like driving big trucks?

Shen He glanced at her and felt that she was implying something about him.

Never mind, this person is just being sarcastic.

She looked away and continued eating her potato chips.

The three of them watched anime for a while, played games for a bit, and then went out to pick mushrooms together.

Although it was called mushroom picking, it was actually more of a sightseeing trip.

On the way, just like last night, the Great Tree King found another herb that had reached the quality of gold from somewhere.

Xia Zhi accepted it with a strange expression; it was another big gain of 100 points.

"Where did you find it?"

"It's just by the roadside. The Liyue people's dreams are of pretty high quality."

"Why did not I see?"

"Maybe it's the woman affecting your eyesight?"

"..."

"Cousin, have you ever thought about something?"

"what's up?"

"Long, long ago, people had to travel back and forth in the forest every day to gather fruits and hunt wild animals in order to survive. Later, they learned about fire, how to make tools, and how to live in communities, and gradually developed civilization."

"speak English."

"How stupid! What I mean is, running around in our dreams every day to collect materials is tiring and inefficient. We might as well grow them ourselves."

"Planting..."

"At that time, all we need to do is sow and harvest on time."

"That's a great idea, and I've thought about it before, but it's quite difficult to actually implement. First, we need a sufficiently stable and powerful dream world to serve as the farm. The dreams that ordinary people have can only provide enough nutrients for two or three Twilight Mushrooms to grow. To support large-scale, sustainable cultivation, it would require a dream created by a powerful immortal or even a god. How do you think that would be possible?"

"It's not that there's no way out; we have two options."

"Oh?"

“One is Lonely Cloud Pavilion, where there are many demons and gods in the sea. They have nothing to do all day and can only sleep and dream. You can make a deal with one of them and get them something to pass the time. They should not refuse. You just need to give someone a heads-up beforehand.”

"That seems feasible... What's another option?"

"The other option is similar, except that the other party is not in the sea, but in the mountains."

"In the mountains?"

Have you ever heard of the Naga King Ratna?

"?!"

Chapter 265 When to Go to Sumeru

"I've heard storytellers tell its tale of the Dragon King Ruo Tuo. It is said that it was once a spiritual stone from the earth, which was sculpted into form by the Rock King and given new life. From then on, it fought alongside Him to conquer the world. However, the storyteller only told this much. I don't know what happened to the Dragon King after that."

"The Dragon King and Morax have become enemies."

"what?"

"This matter is quite complicated. To put it simply, the Liyue people over-mined ore back then, which damaged the ley lines where the Dragon King Rota lived. Combined with the effects of wear and tear, this caused the Dragon King to go somewhat crazy, thus violating the contract it made with Morax. Later, Morax led his people to fight it and suppressed it underground."

"It sounds like its situation is somewhat similar to that of the demon gods in Lonely Cloud Pavilion."

"It's still a bit different. The Dragon King Rota is considered one of Liyue's own people, but it's a bit insane right now. If you can help it regain its senses and alleviate the pain caused by the wear and tear, someone will be very grateful to you."

"How do you know I can help it regain its senses?"

"Aren't you a priest? Your specialty should be healing, right?"

That's true, but I haven't tried it myself.

"You can give it a try."

Where is the Dragon King Nagataka suppressed?

"At the foot of Mount Hulao, there is a Crouching Dragon Tree. For countless ages, the rock bed there has imprisoned the Ruotuo Dragon King like a coffin."

"I remember that should be above the South Heavenly Gate? It's quite far."

Shen He suddenly spoke up, saying, "I've been there before."

"is it?"

“Yes, Master Lishui lives on Mount Hulao. I visited him with my master and we passed by that Fulong Tree. I remember my master stood under the tree for a while and reminisced about it.”

“True Lord of Water and Mountain Management.” The Great Compassionate Tree King nodded. “He lives on Mount Hulao and should have received orders from Morax to guard the seal of the Dragon King Ruoduo.”

"Isn't he still spending all his time playing cards in Liyue? Shouldn't he hurry back and check on the seal?"

"People today have long forgotten that history, and how many people know about the Ruotuo Dragon King? Moreover, Morax's seal is not something that ordinary people can break. In addition, with the seal lasting for a long time, the Ruotuo Dragon King's power must have been severely depleted, so there is no need to keep an eye on him all the time."

"..."

"I've told you both options, cousin, what do you think?"

"Sigh, only children make choices; adults want it all."

"Farms are naturally better the bigger they are, but if they are too big, they are also difficult to manage."

"That is indeed a problem."

"I do have a solution to this problem."

"Oh?"

"Lannaro, have you heard?"
