"Sister Tongyan, don't you know?"

"Know what?"

The childish voice of carrot slowly sounded in my ears.

"I heard my mother say that Liyue experienced a catastrophe two years ago."

"The Great Holocaust?"

The child's face had a slightly strange expression. Thinking of the dark shadow that appeared not long ago, she frowned again, giving people a solemn feeling between her eyebrows.

"That catastrophe almost destroyed the entire Liyue."

Carrot straightened up. She was petite and raised her fair and tender little hand to poke the old and faded wooden sign hanging above her head.

"My mother was pregnant at the time, so I could only pray here."

The writing on the wooden sign has been washed away by the rain and is blurred, but the words Xiang Wan and Ping An can be vaguely seen.

Tong Yan raised her eyes and raised her eyebrows. The thing that could make Hu Tao worried must be related to life and death.

Hutao became the master of the Rebirth Hall at the age of thirteen, and the first funeral she handled was to bury her grandfather. It stands to reason that she was already used to separation between life and death.

But when the separation of life and death once again happens to someone close to him, even an immortal can't ignore it, let alone Hu Tao, who is about to become a mother?

Tong Yan had never experienced that catastrophe, but she could relate to it.

When she was still An Chun, she didn't want to leave Mandrill.

An Chun wants to be with Mandrill forever.

It can no longer be conveyed now that life after restarting is a brand new beginning.

Tong Yan doesn’t want to make the same mistakes again.

For this reason, she has to become stronger, stronger than the previous life, stronger than Mandrill.

It is best to become the strongest person in the Teyvat continent and surpass the laws of nature.

Then Tong Yan can stay with Mandrill for a lifetime.

A gust of breeze blew over her face, and Tong Yan's long hair was blown a little messy. She had no intention of arranging it, and her thoughts gradually drifted away.

Tong Yan thought of the long escape time she and Mandrill went through in her previous life.

In order to improve his strength, An Chun spent all his time hunting monsters that were corrupted by darkness and became violent.

During that time, monsters were rampant in Liyue, and An Chun saved many Liyue people who were in danger. Therefore, she was also nicknamed the Protector Witch by the Liyue people she saved.

Because in those days, she and Mandrill were inseparable.

It was also during that hunting period that they found the mastermind through some clues.

The two of them went to the snow-capped mountain outside Mondstadt, where there is wind and snow all year round, and they fought side by side for a long time in the snowy field where darkness could not be seen.

In a battle, An Chun was seriously injured while protecting Mandrill and almost died.

Mandrill did not hesitate to sacrifice the life of the immortal before he led An Chun out of the siege. On the way to being chased, Mandrill was also seriously injured, and he had no choice but to jump into the deepest endless snowfield with An Chun.

After that, a slightly frail figure appeared on Mandrill's back.

Carrying An Chun on his back was difficult in the snowy field. Mandrill was an immortal, so he had no real sense of death.

An Chun is an ordinary person who is calm about his impending death.

During that time, although An Chun was weak, he talked a lot more than usual.

Tong Yan couldn't remember what was said at that time, but she remembered one thing.

That means Mandrill promised to take her away and she would not die in the snowfield.

The endless snowfield was very cold, and An Chun, who was seriously injured, could not withstand the severe cold on his own, so Mandrill held An Chun tightly in his arms most of the time.

As her thoughts slowly returned, Tong Yan happened to hear Carrot say, "Although Brother Mandrill rarely walks around Liyue Port, his number of admirers in Liyue in recent years is no less than that of the Emperor."

"In addition, he is always alone, so the number of girls who admire brother Mandrill is actually the most."

Tong Yan slowly put down the carrot, and then gently rubbed her head.

"I like the teacher."

"I will make the teacher like me."
