Chapter 425 I stand above time, overlooking the past like smoke

Rice Wife · Tatar Sand

Once the most prosperous craftsman's sanctuary in Inazuma, it has now declined.

There have been many problems in Mikage Furnace Heart, and the evil forces that often emerge have made it a dangerous place, no longer suitable for people to live.

Most of the rich and powerful people have moved away, leaving only a few powerless people still living here.

As soon as Wang Dao came here through the earth channel, he immediately found that it was different from when he came before.

The dangerous and evil aura in the direction of Mikage Furnace's heart has dissipated a lot.

"Ying must have repaired the Mikage Furnace Heart. It feels like the evil power has been absorbed and suppressed."

Wang Daoyi's inner thoughts flashed away, and then he turned his head and looked in other directions.

Feeling the guidance of the authority of time deep in his soul, Wang Daoyi turned his gaze to the ruins of a building.

"That's where the craftsmen lived in the past."

"The authority of time guided me here because there is key information here?"

"In that case, let's go and have a look."

Wang Daoyi's inner thoughts flashed, and without any further hesitation, he turned into golden light and flew towards the ruins.

Arriving at the ruins, the "Power of Time" deep in Wang Daoyi's soul became even more restless.

Without hesitation, he stretched out his hand, and authority like the heart of God emerged.

"Then let me see what happened here."

[The authority of time] shook violently,

In an instant, like a river flowing backward, time reverses,

As soon as Wang Dao appeared in the time tunnel full of illusions,

However, when I first obtained the [Authority of Time], the power of the authority seems to be stronger now.

The picture of time flows backwards, and the power of time continues to flow, taking Wang Daoyi's sight to the past.

the other side,

outlying islands,

Lei Xingying and Nasida, who were shopping, turned their heads together and looked in the direction of Tatasha.

After a few breaths, the two gods looked away, looked at each other, and continued playing as if nothing had happened.

Yae Shenzi glanced at the two gods, wondering what happened, raised his eyebrows, and said nothing.

His eyes turned back to Tatasha,

Under the leadership of the power of time, Wang Daoyi's gaze has turned to the past.

In the catastrophic scene,

Under the heavy rain and thunder, the sand was hit by the tsunami,

The originally stable furnace heart changed, and wisps of evil power leaked out.

Whether it is the craftsmen stationed here, the civilians hired here, or the shogunate troops guarding here,

Infected by evil forces, one after another fell into crisis.

For a time, this holy land of Inazuma craftsmen seemed like hell on earth.

In this hellish scene, a young man dressed in white and wearing a golden feather looked at the tragic scene in front of him with a sad look in his eyes.

Next to the boy, stood a middle-aged man. He was tall and had calluses on his hands. He was obviously a good craftsman.

"Nanyu, haven't the people you sent out come back?"

"No, the rain is too heavy, and the tsunami has not ended yet. I'm afraid the people sent out are in danger."

"Can't we go overland?"

"It's too late. It takes too long to get to Inazuma Castle from here."

"Niyu, let me go. I have the general's token. I can ask to see the general. As long as the general takes action, the disaster here will definitely be quelled."

"But" the middle-aged man hesitated. As he said just now, the wind and rain are too strong and the tsunami is still there. Going out to sea now is undoubtedly asking for death.

But the middle-aged man couldn't say anything to stop her, because he knew that if no one went to Dao Wife for help, there would really be no hope for Taosha.

Looking at the two people in the picture, Wang Daoyi knew that one of the two people was a former skirmisher, or in other words, a pure white skirmisher, and Niyu, one of the original people in charge of Tatarsha.

However, compared to these two people, Wang Daoyi was more interested in the engineer dressed in Fontaine in the corner of the picture.

An engineer named Escher stood in the corner of the screen, looking at the hearth of the furnace in the distance with great concern.

However, Wang Daoyi was too familiar with his eyes.

That kind of plain, indifferent, even aloof look, looking at everything as a tool,

"It is indeed you, Dotore."

Wang Dao had a look that was indeed true in his eyes.

When he heard Yae Kamiko talking about historical archives before, Wang Daoyi felt that these things seemed like the doctor's method.

Now that he saw the historical pictures, he was certain that the incident of the stragglers becoming black had something to do with the doctor.

When Wang Daoyi was thinking,

The picture of time begins to change,

As if he knew Wang Daoyi's inner thoughts, the picture did not follow the pure white soldiers who went out to sea in the wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

Instead, it follows Escher in the corner of the frame, some sliced ​​incarnation of Dotore.

After watching Bai San leave, Escher looked at Niyu beside him: "If a Qingqi person comes to ask for help, the general will not turn a blind eye. Niyu-dono, please don't worry."

Niyu nodded slightly: "Well, Mr. Escher, before the Qin Qi comes back, we still have to work hard to close the heart of the furnace."

Escher nodded: "Of course, I will do my best."

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Escher." Niwa seemed a little tired.

"You are a little tired, go and rest first, Niwa-dono."

"We can't rest. There are still many civilians who need help."

Niwa rejected Escher's proposal, dragged his ailing body, and began to rescue the civilians and craftsmen who were treading the tar sand.

And where Niyu couldn't see him, Escher shook his head slightly: "What a good man. It's a pity that the clown needs a charmer. In this case, let you die for the charmer. Anyway, you are the one who can eliminate the disaster in the heart of the furnace. That’s what you want, isn’t it?”

Before Wang Daoyi could continue watching, the picture flowed again,

This time, the picture appeared on Bai San's side,

Maybe he has gone through many hardships,

Bai San is already homeless.

His pure white clothes were soaked through. If it weren't for the golden feather he wore on his chest, he would be no different from a homeless victim.

With Jin Yu as evidence, Bai San finally passed through many obstacles and came to the castle tower.

However, after arriving at the castle tower,

Bai San lowered his head, he begged, he prayed, hoping that Lei Qianqiu could see him and listen to him tell about the disaster of stepping on tar sand.

However, Bai San didn't know that Lei Qianqian was already in the pure land of one heart and no longer interfered with the affairs of the outside world.

Everything about Inazuma is given to the [Eternal Guardian]

Therefore, no matter how much the admirer begged, he could not get any response.

In front of General Thunder and Lightning, who pursues eternity, nothing about stepping on the sand is important. When the tsunami passes, the disaster will naturally disappear.

【Unchangeable is eternity! 】

Rejected by General Raiden and unable to get a response from Raiden, Bai San left the castle tower. People who stepped on tar sand were still dying. He could not place people's lives on that indifferent god.

So, Bai San set foot on Yingxiang Mountain, and using the golden feather as a certificate, he was received by the Eightfold Divine Son.

"The people who are treading on the sand are suffering from disasters. People are dying every moment. We need help!"

The pure white child prayed to the beautiful miko.

"I already know about the disaster of treading on tartar sand. As the Secretary of the Narushen Palace, I will not turn a blind eye. However, I need time to mobilize manpower. I hope you can wait."

"The general will never abandon you"

The beautiful fox palace minister said so.

Bai San, who was exhausted and had lost all hope, saw that the other party did not immediately initiate rescue and only gave a verbal promise.

And after saying that the cold god would not abandon him,

The turbulent emotions in my heart could no longer be calmed, and exploded like a volcano erupting.

In Bai San's view, it was the Inazuma shogunate that abandoned the people who were treading Tasha.

General Leiden turned a blind eye to the disaster of Taosha.

Narujinguji delayed the rescue.

Standing above time, Wang Daoyi looked at the collapsed, desperate and heartbroken children in the painting, as if he were seeing a piece of pure white paper with a little ink stain appearing on it and spreading continuously.

Immediately afterwards,

The power of time surges again, with the picture constantly changing,

In the flow of time,

Wang Dao saw Bai San leaving Narukami Taisha Shrine and embarked on the road back to Tatarsha alone.

And when Bai San returned to Taosha,

Disasters have spread all over the land, life is withering, people are crying,

Bai San felt guilty and wanted to tell Niyu that he failed to bring back reinforcements.

But the next moment, a Fontaine engineer named Escher told him,

Niyu was afraid of being blamed by the shogunate for leaking the heart of the furnace. He had fled with his family in fear of crime, but left behind a device that could solve the disaster. He also said that Niyu hoped that stragglers would solve the problem.

Niwa's escape once again tore a wound in Bai San's pure heart.

He didn't understand why Niyu absconded, even though Taosha's family members were still in pain.

But the concern for the people of Tatasha gave Bai San no time to think about Niwa's betrayal.

He took the box left by Niyu and rushed into the polluted heart of the furnace.

Relying on the powerful physical fitness of the doll and the protection of the inexplicable power in the box, Bai Sanchong came to the heart of the furnace.

But when he opened the box, he found a withered heart inside.

Following the reminder from engineer Escher, Bai San finally closed the furnace core, and the pollution of Ta Tao Sand began to slow down.

"What's going on with that box and the heart inside?" Bai San asked the engineer Escher in confusion.

With a stern expression and a hint of guilt, Escher said, "That was taken from an innocent craftsman by Niyu before he escaped."

Bai's dilated pupils shrank, and his pure white soul collapsed again.

He doesn't understand, he doesn't understand,

Why would Niwa use the lives of innocent people as a tool for salvation?

In his impression, Niyu is a cheerful, kind and loyal craftsman, a person respected by the people of Tatasha.

But now, he saw another Niyu, who was cowardly, cruel, and persecuted innocent people.

For a moment, Bai San felt that he couldn't understand people's hearts.

Outside the screen, Wang Daoyi could clearly feel that the aura of despair on Bai San's body was getting stronger.

However, Bai San still did not show any malice to the outside world like a skirmisher.

More like an autistic child, a child abandoned by the whole world.

Later, support from the shogunate arrived, but Bai San, as the hero who closed the heart of the furnace, did not come forward to see them.

After the heart of Tatarsha Furnace returned to normal,

Bai San did not stay there anymore. Niyu's betrayal was like a sharp knife inserted into Bai San's heart, and he began to wander on Taosha.

until one day,

In a dilapidated old house by the seaside in Tatarsha, he saw a child.

The child is a small one, he looks like he is only seven or eight years old.

But there is no adult protection around him. He is like a cub, looking for support in a dangerous world alone.

Looking at the child's dusty face, Bai San felt an inexplicable cramp in his chest, as if something ancient had revived in his body.

For this reason, Bai San stopped wandering, stayed in this dilapidated house, and began to take care of the young children.

For several days, the child's parents did not come back.

"Where are your parents?" Bai San couldn't help but ask the child.

There was a hint of confusion on the child's face: "Mom and dad have passed away."

"died?"

"Well, they are workers at the heart of the furnace. They contracted a strange disease and kept coughing up blood. They couldn't be cured. Then the family ran out of money, and their parents left and never came back."

Bai San listened to the little boy's words, and the cramping feeling in his chest became more intense.

Furnace heart, getting sick, coughing up blood,

Bai San knew that the other party's parents must have become infected because of the evil force.

The parents who have never returned may have died quietly in a corner.

The reason why they left was probably because they didn't want to infect their children with the strange disease.

For a moment, Bai San was moved.

They all have no parents,

They are all abandoned,

None of them have friends,

They are all alone,

He felt as if he had found someone of his own kind.

Bai San looked at the child, whose eyes were just like his before, so pure and spotless.

"Then how about you become my family?"

"Family, great!"

In the scene where the power of time appears, Bai San and the child hold hands, looking very healing.

The aura of despair in Bai San's body was rapidly dissipating, and he seemed to have found the anchor point in his heart.

Bai San and the child agreed to become a family and spend the rest of their lives together.

The next scene shows Bai San and the little boy living together. Although they live in poverty, they are also contented.

Until one day, the little boy's body began to decline rapidly.

Bai San, who had experienced the Tatar sand-trampling incident, could tell at a glance that it was a disease caused by pollution caused by evil forces.

The farewell of his parents did not allow the little boy to escape the contamination of the evil power.

Bai San brought the little boy back to the Borrowing Scenery Pavilion.

Under the fiery red maple leaves, Bai San carefully took care of the little boy, struggling to keep him alive.

However, the weakness of life is never transferred by human will.

It only takes a moment for a person to die.

Time flows,

One day, after Bai San came back from searching for food and medicine,

But they found the little boy lying quietly on the ground, his young body curled up, and the blood coughed out from his mouth was like the maple leaves beside it, which was bright red.

There is also a doll in the small hand, which is a small Bai San.

The little man in white clothes and black hair wears a belt with a small bow on his waist. He is obviously a smiling doll, but there is a funny round teardrop hanging in the corner of his eye.

The little doll seemed to be telling Bai San:

[I'm leaving, family, please don't cry for me. 】

"No, no, this is not true." His pupils shrank sharply, and the medicinal materials fell from Bai San's hand and scattered on the floor.

The pain in his heart made him unable to control himself. He stumbled to the little boy's side, stretched out his hand to check his breathing, but there was no response.

"We obviously agreed that we are family and we want to live together, but why, why do you want to leave me too?"

Bai San's emotions fluctuated violently, and the ink stain on the pure white paper expanded rapidly.

Despair, hatred, world-weariness, all kinds of negative emotions appeared in his heart like rough waves.

"Again, again, again!"

"My Creator has abandoned me."

"My friends abandoned me too."

"Now, the last of my family has abandoned me."

"If I was born wrong, why was I brought into this world?"

at night,

A raging fire broke out on the seashore.

Bai San burned down the wooden house, put on the old straw hat he found in the wooden house, and continued on his wandering journey.

He wandered around, not knowing where he should go or where he could go.

Along the way he met more people,

Only, this time he no longer considered any of them as family.

Outside the time frame, Wang Daoyi was slightly silent. He did not expect that there would be such a warm but sad story behind that unruly and malicious straggler.

The sympathy in his eyes flashed away, replaced by still determined indifference.

"Your story is certainly touching, your life experience is truly tragic, and your experience really makes people sympathize."

"But the mistakes you made are also real, and the tragedy you caused is also real."

"I feel pity for you."

"But I will never forgive you!"

Only the victim can forgive the perpetrator.

And all Wang Daoyi can do is punish.

No matter what Skirmisher has been through, when he projects his malice onto innocent people, he must pay the price.

The hurt you have suffered is never an excuse to do evil.

The injuries suffered are never a reason to swing a knife at innocent people.

On the time screen, the power of time slowly dissipates, and it seems that the story here is about to end.

The golden gnosis in Wang Dao's eyes slightly circulated,

"I finally had the chance to wait for you to make some movement. It's not my habit to watch you in vain."

A thought in my mind,

The surging elemental power gathers and impacts the [Power of Time] body in time.

The vast elemental power is like a continuous source of power, allowing the power of time that had begun to slowly dissipate to gather together again.

Elemental power is one of Teyvat's most original powers.

Normally, it has nothing to do with time.

But now that there is the concrete existence of [the authority of time], the elemental force can support the power of time through this concrete existence.

Although the power of time itself may not be needed, it is like a car with the accelerator stepped on. Without braking or crashing, if you keep giving the gas, it can only keep driving. Even if the car itself wants to stop, it will useless.

With the support of Wang Daoyi’s vast elemental power,

The power of time gathered again, and the time images that had originally dissipated began to flow again.
