Chapter 299: Are you the emperor?
"A-Nin, there is a big pit here. Do you think the benefactor jumped into it?"
Under the rocky abyss, Zuo Xi and the others fought just now. Two incredible people were stopping here, looking back and forth at the big pit in front of them.
"...Boss, I don't think a normal person would do such a thing as jumping into a pit."
These two people are from Inazuma Arataki Yito and Kuqi Shinobu. Two rice wives appeared in a mysterious place that had been banned for a long time in Liyue. This was indeed incredible.
"But, I think the benefactor is coming in this direction. Doesn't it seem like there is another place to hide?"
Arataki Yitou didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said. In his opinion, it was just jumping into a pit. It was normal! I really don't understand why A-nin put on that expression.
"You two, this giant rock abyss is not a holy place for tourism. If there is nothing urgent, please go back as soon as possible."
While Kuki Shinobi was still thinking about how to persuade the boss to give up the idea of "jumping out of this pit," a voice behind them attracted their attention.
"Are you kidding? You don't have a sign fence here, so you don't want people to walk on it?"
Regardless of who made the voice behind him, Arataki Ichito's retort had already been spoken out before he turned around. It's just a joke. If you don't post notices in important places and someone breaks in, isn't this the other party's responsibility?
If it were normal, Jiuqi Shinobu would definitely come forward to make adjustments. But first, she thinks what the boss said is fine, and second, she wants to wait and see. After all, you can't just use an individual to represent Liyue's officialdom. She has seen a lot of people being blamed under false names... It should be said that she often uses this method.
"Sir, you are joking. The original intention of the notice is indeed a warning, but for some people with ulterior motives, it is nothing more than a guiding light. This truth must not be difficult to understand, right?"
Arataki Ito's reaction and words were exactly the same as in his memory. It should be said or not, this is Brother Douzi. But...heh, Kuki-nin is still the same Kuki-nin.
After giving a meaningful look to Kuki Shinobu who was watching from the side, Zuo Xi once again responded to Arataki Ichito's rebuttal in a gentle diplomatic tone.
In my impression, these two people were almost inexplicably involved in this incident. Mandrill, Ye Lan, and Yan Fei all had their own reasons, but for these two, falling into that space was basically an unforeseen disaster.
Considering that there was no need for these two people to suffer this crime for no reason, Zuo Xi came forward to expel them in an official tone.
"I'm sorry, sir, do you have relevant items to prove your identity? I'm really sorry, I have no intention of doubting you. It's just that when you go out, it's inevitable to be careful. I believe that such a tolerant person as sir will understand us, right?"
After thinking about it, Kuki-nin felt that the other party's statement was reasonable. From this point of view, the possibility that this place is a secret place has once again increased. But this must be based on the fact that the identity of the person in front of you is reliable.
"Well...that's not a coincidence."
After listening to Jiuqi Ren's words, Zuo Xi had a troubled expression on his face. Seeing this expression, Kuki-nin thought that the other party could not produce anything to prove his identity, and he could not help but feel wary and doubtful in his heart.
"Oh? Sir, you didn't carry it with you? I can completely understand this. After all, it is normal to forget something occasionally. But sir, as I just said, we are also in some difficulties... Why don't we each take a step back? Just leave and you won’t be held responsible. How about that?”
"No, no, no, this lady. I think you have misunderstood. It's not that I didn't bring something to prove my identity... I mean - I've never been a tolerant person."
Zuo Xi said the words seriously, which left Kuqi Shinobu speechless on the spot. At the same time, he also ignited Arataki Ito next to him who had long been unhappy with him.
"Hey! You guys are trying to make fun of us, right? Okay, then I'll come and play with you!"
Even Arataki Yidou could feel that the other party was deliberately teasing them. How could he bear this anger? What's more, the other party is not only playing with himself, but also playing with A-Nin. This is the second in command of the Arataki faction! His subordinates were bullied, so of course he, the boss, wanted to get the situation back.
"Miss, do we want to continue talking?"
After just one glance, he completely ignored the aggressive Arataki Ito. Zuo Xi turned his attention to Kuki Shinobi.
"Hey...how dare you ignore me!"
"Don't be impulsive, boss, let me do it."
After grabbing Arataki Ito, who was about to rush forward and fight, Kuki Shinobu stepped forward to negotiate with the opponent again. Although the other party's previous words were indeed very irritating, in the final analysis, if this was really Liyue's forbidden land, then it would be unreasonable for them to make the mistake first.
What's more, she knows the strength of her boss. The other party does not have the Eye of God. If the boss is allowed to take action, if any serious harm is caused to the other party, the matter will be irreversible. If the other party is really an official from Liyue, then this may even turn into a diplomatic accident... Considering the balance, Jiuqi Ren does not dare to take this risk.
"Sir, please calm down. We really don't know the special nature of this place. Since you said so, we will leave as soon as possible. But if it is really a dangerous area, we should try to put up a sign."
Calculating the risks and gains in his mind, Kuki Shinobu finally decided to take a step back. After all, this is Liyue, not Dao's wife, and she may not have the ability to protect herself and her boss. If the two of them really made any mistakes, it would be difficult for her senior sister Zhou Xuan to make mistakes.
"I can understand your dissatisfaction. Even if you don't know your identity, you won't be convinced..."
Zuo Xi, who had had enough fun, decided not to tease them anymore, and he would not let them do it this time. Especially if Yidou was not convinced, he was 100% sure that this silly ghost tribe would come here again and jump. Go down. Not for anything else, just for the sake of gambling.
"[Tianquan], [Yuheng], [Tianshu], [Tianji], [Tianxuan], [Kaiyang], [Yaoguang]."
Zuo Xi reported out the code names one after another like the names of dishes, and then took out the documents corresponding to the code names from nowhere and handed them to Jiuqi Shinobu.
"Well...the official documents from the Seven Stars are all here, is that enough? If not, I can also take out the documents from the Eight Gates."
When he heard the first [Tenquan], Kuki Shinobu was still a little solemn. Because this matter involves Qixing, it means that this place should be really special.
But when the names were revealed one by one by the other party, the expression on Kuki-nin's face went through a whole process of "surprise-surprise-shock-numbness".
At this moment, a ridiculous conjecture emerged in her mind - could this person be the new Rock King?
