Chapter 55 (Exclusive to Jinjiang Literature City)
As the leader of Luofu, Jing Yuan cared deeply for his people, but he truly didn't understand what they were thinking.
Feeling the need to understand what the people of Luofu were thinking, Jing Yuan registered an account overnight and started surfing the internet.
It has to be said, the people of Xianzhou are quite good at pretending.
In front of Jing Yuan, the people of Xianzhou were all obedient, harmless, and in need of protection. However, online, taking advantage of Jing Yuan's lack of time to browse forums, they drove their cars like crazy.
From initial shock and disbelief to later seamless integration, Jing Yuan only spent two short days. Although he was blocked by all the group chats like the "Jing Yuan Fan Club," it did not diminish Jing Yuan's enthusiasm for surfing the internet.
When the Trail Blazers heard the news, they patted him on the back to comfort him: "It's okay, at least you haven't been verbally attacked like 'Do you know more about General Shence than I do?'"
Jing Yuan: "No, but I've been called a military idiot."
pioneer:"???"
Yes, netizens like Jingyuan have criticized him for not understanding military affairs.
The reason was that his replies on some military posts pointed out several errors in the passionate discussions among netizens, which resulted in him being attacked with thousands of comments, as if he had stirred up a hornet's nest.
"Actually, this is quite normal." The Trail Blazers scratched his head. "When surfing the internet, netizens' family trees are all in a Schrödinger's cat state."
Jingyuan understood this, but did not support it.
For a long time afterward, Luofu launched a vigorous campaign to clean up the internet and crack down on vulgar language. Suddenly, people in Luofu became much more refined in their speech, especially when they were cursing; they all sounded like literary masters.
Well, anyway, I didn't expect to end online arguments this way. After all, wherever there are people, there will be arguments, and arguments will inevitably lead to fights, regardless of how close or distant the relationship is.
Besides, it's always better to resolve issues through online arguments than to engage in a real, physical fight offline.
Jing Yuan took it all in stride. He was always very receptive and could accept the chaos of the Moon Drinking Incident and his master's fall into demonic possession in the shortest amount of time. He was not intimidated by the outrageous fan fiction and the fierce online battles.
On the contrary, he was very interested in these things, especially when dealing with the dragon masters. Netizens provided him with a lot of "good words and phrases".
With those in power not caring, those below naturally became incredibly unrestrained. Eventually, Luofu became a well-known fan fiction mecca in the Immortal Boat Alliance and even the universe.
Every time the Trailblazers return to Luofu, they bring in a large batch of goods: one set for their collection, one set for promotion, and the remaining set to look at every night before bed.
“There’s no way around it. Although the capitalists at Interstellar Peace Corporation allow fanfiction, they charge a ton of fees. Compared to Xianzhou’s more lenient policies, fanfiction enthusiasts naturally prefer Xianzhou.” Pioneer whispered mysteriously into Jing Yuan’s ear, “I suspect Dan Heng is also a big shot in the fanfiction section.”
Jing Yuan blinked in surprise, then, mimicking the pioneers, asked in a low voice, "What do you mean?"
"Back when we came to Luofu, Blade was constantly chasing Danheng, and then someone started writing fanfiction about them on the forum." Pioneer grinned mischievously as he mentioned it. "You know, love-hate relationships are the most entertaining, and you know Blade, he has a bit of a male ghost aura about him. Their pairing is really hot on the forums right now. When I recommended it to March, I accidentally sent it to Danheng, and then Teacher Danheng said to us with a serious face, 'Shipping everything will only hurt you.' That's hilarious! Shipping everything will just make me nutritionally balanced! I can even stomach the Cripper and Lan pairing, so Blade-Danheng and Danheng-Blade are no problem at all."
Only after saying this did he realize that the person in front of him was Lan's envoy, so he chuckled awkwardly twice.
"It's okay, I don't mind, as long as you don't ship Lan and the pharmacist," Jingyuan said. "I'm averse to that."
The pioneer who truly loves the Arashi and Yakushi pairing: "..."
Jing Yuan could see right through Xing He Jing's little scheme, but he had only said that to tease a child, so he didn't care that this couple was somewhat politically incorrect in the eyes of the Immortal Ship.
"Ahem, let's continue what we were talking about." The Trailblazer tried his best to act as if he had never been a fan of the Hunting and Abundance pairing. "Ever since Teacher Danheng learned about the Blade Heng and Hengren pairing, there has been a writer on the forum who is trying to break up the Blade Heng and Hengren pairing. He insists that the two are just ordinary friends and acquaintances, and there is no melodramatic love between them."
Upon hearing this, Jing Yuan felt only sympathy: "Is Teacher Danheng's family tree still intact?"
Oh, Teacher Danheng doesn't have a family tree. (Hellish joke +1)
The Trail Blazer gave him a knowing look and continued, "As far as I know, this writer has already been put on the kill list by the CP fans of both sides. After all, they keep their own little world to themselves, but his behavior is like going all out in front of them. In any fandom, he would be cursed for his ancestors for eighteen generations."
Jing Yuan: "..."
Old friend, you're so naive.
"What's that writer's ID? I'll check it out." Jing Yuan took out his jade tablet, somewhat eager to try it out. He planned to share those articles with Ren Ye.
I really want to see his expression after he finds out about this couple.
"Tsk, General, I think you're more suited to a life of pleasure than hunting." The Trailblazer quickly shared the ID with Jing Yuan, "Don't let Dan Heng know that I exposed his identity."
“Okay.” Jing Yuan nodded with a smile. “I won’t tell him that you were the first person to write a fanfic about him and Ren.”
pioneer:"???!!!"
"General, how did you know it was me?" the Trailblazer asked in surprise, puzzled.
Jing Yuan smiled helplessly and said, "Besides you, who else can be here to watch the drama unfold?"
It's not like he hasn't read those fanfics about the two of them; so many little details in them show that the author was there at the time. And the only person who likes to surf the internet and randomly ship couples is the Pioneer.
Fortunately, the Trail Blazers still had some integrity and didn't drag this centenarian into a chaotic scene. He's too old to handle such a shock; he's more interested in watching others have fun.
"Hehe, I didn't expect you to like browsing forums, General." The Trailblazer grinned foolishly. "Well, you know, you're pretty down-to-earth."
Hearing her say that, Jingyuan couldn't help but chuckle.
Many people view him through a thick filter, and Jingyuan knew this, but he never expected that the Trail Blazers would be like that as well.
“Even if I’m a general of Luofu, I’m just an ordinary person,” Jing Yuan said helplessly.
Although Jing Yuan always appears imposing and righteous in official settings, he is actually a very lazy person in private.
If the string is stretched too tight, it will break.
Even Jingyuan gets a little emo late at night.
I'm such a useless person for failing to bring back all the Cloud Cavalry. Won't the people of Luofu hold a grudge? The war between the Hunting and the Abundance has dragged on for so long, when will it finally end? Star Core, the Annihilation Army, the Abundance's Beasts... more and more forces are being drawn in. Can I really protect Luofu in this situation?
Besides these negative emotions, strange thoughts would occasionally pop into Jingyuan's mind.
For example, did you make too many promises for Fu Xuan? Is Qing Que's workload still not full enough? Your fanfiction is so popular, shouldn't Shence Mansion collect some copyright fees?
These jumbled thoughts swirled in my mind, but were eventually completely dispelled by the sound of Mimi jumping in through the window.
Covering his mouth and yawning, Jingyuan asked, "Would you like something to eat?"
Mimi shook her head; she had already eaten.
"Alright then." He washed his face with cold water, and then when he looked up, he met Mimi's eyes in the mirror.
Mimi's eyes were filled with worry, and she made "mi-mu-mi-mu" sounds, asking him if he was having another nightmare and whether he should go and call Xiao.
"No," Jing Yuan wiped his face and explained to Mimi, "I should say I had a good dream."
The past is the past. He might feel regret and reminisce, but he won't let it hold him back. Among the five of them, Jing Yuan has always been the most open-minded. His love and hate are always just right, neither like a raging fire nor like bone-chilling ice.
He is the sun.
Holding Mimi, whose face was full of concern, in his arms, Jingyuan spoke with a hint of amusement in his voice: "It seems you two get along very well."
They can order each other around at will.
Mimi nodded.
It has a very good relationship with the ape; all the fish the ape catches end up in its belly, while it doesn't get a single bite.
"That's good." Jing Yuan put Mimi on the bed, and then took out the clothes he had bought yesterday from the closet.
To better integrate into Liyue, Jingyuan specially bought a lot of clothes and accessories, not only for himself, but also for Fu Xuan and the others, and even Mimi.
"Back in Mondstadt, I was so busy buying alcohol that I forgot to buy clothes." Jingyuan tapped his head with his fan. "Oh dear, I'm getting old, and my memory is getting worse. It's alright, we're not in a hurry to leave anyway, we can go back to Mondstadt another day."
To avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Jingyuan followed Wendy and Zhongli's example and made himself a fake God's Eye.
Fortunately, not many people possess the Eye of God, and not everyone can clearly perceive whether the Eye of God truly contains power like Jingyuan can. So there's no need to worry about being exposed like Wendy and Zhongli did upon first meeting.
Although his identity as an extraterrestrial visitor wasn't exactly secret to Jing Yuan, after Zhong Li mentioned what the first few visitors had done to Teyvat, Jing Yuan felt he should at least conceal his identity to some extent.
He's here on a trip, not to cause trouble.
"Would you like one too?" Jing Yuan asked with a smile, holding up the two Eyes of God in his hands. The kitten on the bed was already yawning.
Mimi shook its little head. Apart from the sunglasses that Gojo Satoru gave it, it could only accept the branches of the Frozen Tree tied to its tail, and it politely declined everything else.
"Okay, then I'll wear it myself."
Jing Yuan didn't force it, and began searching his body for the location to hang the Eye of God.
Put it back where it used to hang the scroll? No, that would feel like being rehired after retirement. Hang it behind me like Zhongli? Hmm, that feels a bit strange.
After much deliberation, Jingyuan decided to make the Eye of God into a belt buckle, which would be both aesthetically pleasing and practical.
