Chapter 413 What exactly are the starry sky and the abyss?
Deinsreib?
Jiang Bai has never heard of this name.
Judging from his clothes, they are not like the clothes of any country I have seen so far.
Moreover, he was dressed very tightly. Except for his face, his whole body was wrapped in clothes, as if he was hiding something with his clothes.
But the pupils are a bit similar to Kaia's.
"Why do you know about me?"
"Are you sure you want to talk to me about this here?"
Jiang Bai looked at the people coming and going around him. This was indeed not the place to talk about things.
"Then let's go to the teahouse."
Jiang Bai felt that this Deinsreib should not have any ill intentions towards him. After all, he came here with the attitude of having a conversation.
After opening a teahouse private room and making sure that the conversation inside could not be heard outside, Jiang Bai looked at Dainsreib.
"Would you like some tea?"
"No. I can't get used to Liyue's tea."
"Then let's get straight to the point. Why do you know about me?"
Deinsreib wore black gloves on his hands, and no skin on his hands was exposed.
He crossed his fingers and said calmly: "I know everything that happened in Teyvat that is recorded in the earth's veins."
"!"
"Doesn't that mean you know how many times I go to the toilet a night?"
Jiang Bai suddenly felt a strong feeling that his privacy had been violated.
Dainsreb was silent, and for a moment he felt like he couldn't continue.
Twice already, the person in front of him disrupted his rhythm twice, or did or said something that he didn't expect.
"The capacity of the human brain is limited, and I don't pay attention to these boring things."
"Then what will you focus on?"
"I will pay attention to important things, such as the fact that you met the apostle of the abyss."
"How did you know? Through the earth's veins? Who are you? What do you want to do when you come to me?" Jiang Bai looked at him warily.
Such an omniscient and omnipotent person is really scary.
"I'm just a homeless person, my identity doesn't matter."
Dainsreb did not tell his origins. For him, with the passing of his homeland, his former identity has long since dissipated with the wind.
He is now just a ghost walking in the world to fight against the abyss, nothing more.
"All the information about Teyvat has been recorded in the earth's veins. Since it is recorded, there is naturally a way to extract it, but there are only a handful of people who can do such a thing."
"How much do you know about me?" Jiang Bai still did not relax his vigilance.
"After sensing your contact with the abyss, I read a lot of records about you, including your contribution in the Mondstadt dragon disaster, and everything you did in the suspended death of the Rock King Emperor."
As soon as he mentioned this, Jiang Bai's toes tightened on the floor.
Why do so many people know about his death!!!
Although he was going crazy inside, Jiang Bai looked calm on his face.
He tilted his head slightly and asked in a puzzled tone: "So, what do you want to do when you come to me?"
Deinsreib did not have many mood swings, and the expression on his face did not change much.
It's like he has experienced too many things, and there are very few things that can cause his mood swings.
"I just want to ask you a few questions."
Jiang Bai narrowed his eyes.
Someone who claims to know everything he does comes all the way here just to ask him a few questions?
Is this his real purpose? Or is it just a cover-up?
"Then ask."
He wanted to hear what this guy wanted to ask.
"In your eyes, what do gods mean to Teyvat?" Dainsreb held his chin in his hands and looked at him seriously.
Hearing this question, Jiang Bai's brows suddenly frowned.
He thought that Dyne would ask questions about himself, but he didn't expect that the first question would be this kind of view on gods.
Does this also reflect some of Dine's own attitudes?
Is he hostile to the gods?
"Does my answer matter to you?"
"certainly."
Although thoughts were swirling in his mind, Jiang Bai thought about this issue seriously.
It's not like he hasn't discussed this topic with Zhongli before.
But the result is: humans do not need gods.
But it is certainly better to have a loving god.
As for whether the existence of gods hinders the development of human beings, this is a matter of opinion and wisdom.
After thinking for a while, he said:
"Represents the old order."
The current order of Teyvat is based on the order of the seven rulers of the earth. The seven gods manage seven territories respectively, provide shelter for the people there and guide the way forward.
But what he can feel is that as the plans of the Ice Goddess or the Heart of God advance step by step, the old order will undergo many changes.
The most obvious one is Liyue.
From the kingdom of walking with God to the kingdom of man.
But to what extent the old order will change is unknown.
"That's a wonderful answer." Upon hearing his answer, Deinsreib couldn't help but applaud.
"I thought you were going to say something like a protector and a guide."
Jiang Bai shrugged his shoulders, "You seem to know a lot about me, but you don't know much about me. Although it's true that you are a protector and a guide, it's too shallow."
"Indeed, my understanding of you is very limited. Some of your behaviors also gave me the illusion that you are not serious." Deinsreib told the truth.
"Now it seems that you may have deliberately misled me."
Jiang Bai wanted to refute a few words, but finally held back.
He just deliberately pretended to be immoral, that's right!
"What else do you want to ask?" Jiang Bai was waiting for his next question.
Dainsreb looked into his eyes and asked seriously: "What is the difference between the starry sky and the abyss in your eyes?"
"?"
This question really stumped Jiang Bai.
"Before answering your question, you may have to explain to me what the starry sky represents and what the abyss represents."
Seeing that Jiang Bai couldn't answer, Dainsreib suddenly said, "Don't you know yet? It seems that I asked this question too early."
"What exactly are the starry sky and the abyss?" Jiang Bai asked this question seriously.
[Toward the stars and the abyss] This sentence is often said by Catherine from the Adventurers Association. Jiang Bai thought it was a simple slogan at first.
Later, as I learned more, these two words became more complicated.
The starry sky is a huge lie, so what are the stars?
The abyss is not a specific location, so what does it mean?
"It makes no sense for me to tell you. Only when you feel it yourself can you know what they are."
