"Wow, Boss, I've attracted so many slimes again this time, I'm counting on you!"
A short-sleeved boy was running and howling among the mountains in Jueyunjian. Behind him, there were a bunch of cute and mindless slimes, which were rock slimes that were quite difficult to deal with. This kind of slime was enriched with rock elements in the environment, forming a layer of rock armor on its surface. The shield must be broken before the slime body inside can be harmed.
An Jin looked at this guy and suddenly felt that his behavior in making a deal with him was a bit hasty, but since the contract had been signed, it should be abided by. Those who break their promises should be punished by eating rocks, and they were just slimes, not a big deal.
By the way, why does this phrase "a person who breaks his promise" sound so familiar? It feels like I hear it so often, and I can say it casually...
"Boss, why are you still standing there? The slime jumped on your head!"
An Jin: "..."
It's a pity that reality is not a game. Slimes are stupid creatures that will only blindly attack all living things. There is no hatred system like in games, otherwise Kei should be beaten up. He really doesn't know what's good for him.
Facing the overwhelming pressure of the huge rock slime, An Jin did not panic, but dodged sideways very skillfully, just avoiding any damage.
"Wow! Man, it's really great! This kind of skill between millimeters can show your strong fighting quality, boss, you are really a god!"
An Jin: "Damn it, I can't get rid of it, it's so annoying!"
He kicked the huge armor helmet of the rock slime, and with a snap, the shield broke. Then An Jin stepped on it hard again, and with a puff, the huge slime turned into several balls of gelatinous jelly. Then An Jin added a few more kicks, and the big slime was finished.
The fate of the other slimes was not much better. The most time-consuming thing in the whole process was An Jin cleaning his shoes afterward.
It was a crushing game, the visual effect was very violent and very refreshing, but Kei was very dissatisfied.
"Brother, can you think about my physical fitness? Can I do the operation of crushing a giant slime with these two feet?"
An Jin said with disdain: "But fighting with this kind of slime is really annoying."
"Well, indeed, don't clean your shoes, I just made them casually. When you get to Liyue Port, I will make you a brand new one, using the best leather and soles, and my best craftsmanship. I guarantee that you will be satisfied. How about it? Tell me how to become stronger!"
An Jin thought for a while and said seriously: "I don't know. I have never been troubled by this problem."
Kei: "You..."
Are you talking human words?
After An Jin came to Teyvat, he was the body of a demon god, and the demon god only needed to accept the faith of humans to slowly become stronger over time. Of course, An Jin also had experience as an ordinary person, but that was on Earth, and it may not have reference value in the context of Teyvat.
Kei looked at An Jin's hateful face and wished he could replace him.
It took him a lot of effort to suppress his restless heart and asked, "Haven't you ever learned martial arts? For example, alchemy, swordsmanship, spells, etc., like the Guhua School."
"No."
"Really not?"
"Really not."
"Then how did you become so powerful? You don't look like the holder of the Eye of God..."
An Jin calmly said the following cruel words: "I never knew what training is. I have no interest in becoming stronger. Instead, the happiest time for me was when I was still ignorantly wandering around the mainland."
"Enough, Master, stop reading!"
Kei was hit hard, what a painful realization.
"Kei, don't be so depressed. You know, everyone has his strengths and weaknesses. This is a natural gift. All we can do is work hard and choose the right direction to make the best of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses. At least you are better than me in one thing. I don't know how to sew, but you do. And didn't you say you are the best tailor in Liyue?"
Kei: "I really don't want to be a tailor..."
An Jin looked at this poor kid and shook his head silently. With such a good talent, he made clothes and shoes for him and was proud of it. How can this be seen as not wanting to be a tailor? Maybe he needs better guidance.
Then again, how can he not want to become stronger? If he was really strong enough to pin the woman of the Heavenly Justice Agent to the ground and beat her, why would he have to die?
"Perhaps it is because I am a demon god that demon gods will not really die..."
An Jin recalled an important setting in the original god. It seems that his return is closely related to the immortality of the demon god.
Regarding An Jin's blow, Kei said that it didn't matter. As long as he worked harder, there would be no problem.
"Boss, I'm going to attract some more monsters. You must hold back a little, so that I can see clearly, okay? I beg you, I'll make you two of the best ones, no, three!"
An Jin nodded helplessly. Well, walking in the world, how can you not need some vulgar things?
"Great!"
Kei jumped three feet high and happily went back into the woods.
"Don't go too far!"
"Got it!"
An Jin couldn't help but laugh. When did he have this old mother-like tone? Hmm? Why does this sentence sound so familiar?
"It seems that it is urgent to retrieve my lost memories."
This time, An Jin waited for a long time, but still did not see Kei come back.
He could not wait any longer, so he walked towards the direction Kei left. There is no setting of divine consciousness in the continent of Teyvat, but because everything is composed of elements, and everyone has their own unique element ratio, so with the help of super element vision, An Jin can easily distinguish Kei's path from the environment.
"Found it, huh? Who is that little girl?"
An Jin found that Kei was talking to a little girl wearing a strange zombie costume. Lilac hair, red eyes, and a loli body, isn't this Shichi!
"Are you Shichi?" Kei asked in disbelief.
Shichi looked at Kei curiously and confusedly: "Who are you? Do you know me?"
"Ah... As expected, you forgot, it's me, I'm Kei, I'm Wu Rokuichi, Ki's son, and I made clothes for you!"
Shichi looked at Kei seriously and said uncertainly: "Well, you don't look like you are lying, let me think..."
Kei waited for a long time and was about to give up.
Shichi then said, "I can't remember."
......
Kei was shocked. He would never have thought that this strange girl would be so forgetful.
Despite this, he still had enough respect for Shichi. As the best tailor in Liyue Port, he must be very familiar with high-end customers. According to his father Ki, Shichi was already like this when his grandfather was alive. It was very remarkable.
"Shichi, how about we go to Liyue Port and think about it? Maybe Master Hakubai is still waiting for you."
"Hakubai...ah! I remember now. Shichi has to help Hakubai collect herbs. Strange, let me see..."
As she said that, Shichi took out a booklet from her pocket. It turned out to be a notebook for taking notes. It wrote Shichi's daily activities and tasks, so she was worried about forgetting things and wrote them down carefully. Because words are often forgotten, there are also various cute symbols to help recall, and the effect can only be said to be better than nothing.
Shichi: "So I forgot to check my notebook..."
Kei's mouth couldn't help twitching, "Ahem, so... cute."
It was such a sin to think like that, God knows how old Shichi is.
"Hey! Kei, you are really good, you tricked a little girl into coming here in the deep mountains and old forests?"
Kei got anxious all of a sudden: "Shh! Shh! Uncle An, please don't talk nonsense, this is Shichi, the herbalist boy of our Bubulu Pharmacy in Liyue Port, the owner of the Eye of God, and a high status, please don't make trouble."
"Hello, my name is Shichi, I'm a zombie."
An Jin nodded, looking at Shichi up close, she was really cute, he wanted to keep her.
Kei introduced Shichi to An Jin, and then introduced An Jin to Shichi, and briefly talked about his own experience.
"This An Jin, my new elder brother, is highly skilled in martial arts and has extraordinary abilities. He will definitely help me advance in the adventurer's field!"
Shichi also nodded, and then took out another notebook from her pocket, which was written in half-broken Liyue characters - Shichi's Handbook for Recognizing People.
After flipping through it for a while, Shichi raised her head and said to Kei: "Kei, you are randomly recognizing elder brothers again, can you take a break?"
An Jin asked in surprise: "Shichi, how many good elder brothers does he have?"
Shichi counted on her fingers: "One, two, three... There are about eight good elder brothers, they are... uh, Shichi didn't write this part down..."
Okay, An Jin also recalled the basic settings of this girl.
Shichi was once a mortal who died unexpectedly due to a disaster, but Shichi was a person with immortal fate. The immortals in Liyue Port resurrected Shichi and fixed her in the form of a zombie. It is a good thing to come back to life, but it is impossible for a dead body to maintain its livelihood without a price.
The immortals' magic maintained Shichi's body, but Shichi still needed to exercise regularly to keep her body soft. The dead brain also affected Shichi's memory and thinking ability, making her very forgetful. At the same time, her thinking level was greatly reduced.
In short, it was a process of gain and loss.
Back to Kei, he really wanted to cry but had no tears, and almost knelt down to Shichi.
"My aunt, why do you remember this when you can't remember something else?"
Shichi said very seriously: "Kei is the best tailor. You can buy very good clothes by building a good relationship with Kei."
Kei: "..."
Are you sure that what you recorded is not to destroy your relationship with me? Kei showed a black question mark face.
An Jin laughed. He met Shichi not long after waking up. It seems that he is lucky.
