Chapter 1133: The Same Problem
Perhaps it was the small amount of alcohol in the bottle of green honey plum wine that began to take effect, or perhaps it was because the stable and leisurely life on the ranch in the past few days was too comfortable, making people who were used to running around couldn't help but want to empty themselves once they had some free time.
Shao Yun leaned back in the rocking chair on the porch. His eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and his thinking slowed down.
The wind blew gently, carrying the scent of green grass from the pasture. The rocking chair was still swaying slightly, urging people to fall asleep.
Before he knew it, Shao Yun's breathing gradually became steady, and he fell into a deep sleep sitting in the rocking chair.
Soon, Shao Yun fell into a dream.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself standing next to the vegetable garden on his own ranch.
But the scene before me was completely different from what I remembered.
The land that was originally neatly planned and should have been planted with vegetables and fruits is now full of flowers half a person's height.
('Red like fire, pink like clouds, white like snow' - Zhu Ziqing, "Spring")
It is a scene full of vitality, with everything flourishing.
Just as Shao Yun was looking around in confusion, a familiar figure appeared among the flowers.
The "fake" Ganyu, transformed from the mysterious female goat, still had that enchanting appearance, but she was holding a watering can in her hand, with clear water constantly flowing out of the can, watering the land under her feet.
"You're involved in this controversy again."
"Fake" Ganyu's voice was without much emotion, breaking the tranquility of the garden.
The moment Shao Yun saw her, he immediately realized that he had fallen asleep again in the rocking chair on the porch. The female goat that always appeared in his dreams had once again broken into his dreams.
"Am I dreaming again? Also, my ranch garden was clearly planted with vegetables, so how did it become a garden full of flowers?"
"Fake" Ganyu didn't answer immediately, still concentrating on watering the flowers. She seemed to be casually saying, but in fact, she got straight to the point:
"You've already got the life you've always dreamed of... a stable pasture, a close family, and a life without the hustle and bustle. Why do you continue to wade into the muddy waters of the Fatui and the Cult of the Abyss?"
When Shao Yun heard this question, his heart suddenly sank and a familiar feeling of discomfort surged in his heart.
He seemed to have heard this question a long time ago.
"Why did you ask that devilish question back then... I didn't do this to cause trouble, but to protect the wonderful life I have now."
"The Fatui are about to attack, and Nata will be in chaos. By then, whether I like it or not, my ranch and my family will be dragged into it. Instead of passively enduring it, it's better to take the initiative and stand up."
"Are you satisfied with this answer?"
After Gan Yu heard Shao Yun's reasons for protecting his life, the water in the kettle in her hand slowly stopped flowing and no longer moistened the flowers under her feet.
Then, she turned around, her calm eyes looking straight at Shao Yun, and sneered, "What a ridiculous excuse..."
Shao Yun was about to open his mouth to refute, but he saw the "fake" Gan Yu take a step and slowly approach him.
She didn't get too close, and finally stopped about half a meter away from Shao Yun.
"You can pretend to be a kind father, pretend to be a devoted husband, pretend to be a naive rancher."
"But you worship violence in your heart. You cannot deny your nature. You have sacrificed your memories. You are a desperado from the Wild West!"
“No matter how you hide yourself, the stars in the sky are still the coexistence of deer and wolves!”
After hearing this, Shao Yun raised his hand without changing his expression, pointed at the "fake" Gan Yu's eyes, and said in a simple threat:
"You're just as annoying as Narcida, that mind-reading diaper elf!"
"I think I should roast you, this ghostly sheep, and eat you whole tonight, so you won't be able to talk nonsense in my dreams anymore!"
However, the "fake" Gan Yu looked at Shao Yun revealing his violent nature, but did not show any panic like last time.
Instead, she raised her chin slightly and slowly stretched her neck in front of Shao Yun's hand, as if inviting Shao Yun to take action.
"You see, you can't deny your own nature."
"Fake" Gan Yu slowly closed her eyes and let him grab her neck, as if she was expecting Shao Yun to kill her.
Shao Yun looked at the "fake" Gan Yu in front of him who was at the mercy of others, and the anger in his heart inexplicably subsided a little, replaced by a deep doubt.
The last time you dreamed, weren't you scared? Why aren't you afraid this time? Instead, you're actively leaning forward, acting like you don't care about life or death?
Is it because you know that your bottom line has not been touched that you dare to be so presumptuous?
But Shao Yun changed his mind and said: Don’t try to figure out what the devil is thinking, because you can’t understand it at all.
Instead of worrying about her purpose, why not ask her what she means by looking for you?
Shao Yun released the hand that was holding the "fake" Gan Yu's neck, and wiped the hand that had just touched the "fake" Gan Yu's neck on his clothes repeatedly with disgust, as if it was stained with something dirty.
After doing all this, he looked up at the "fake" Ganyu and asked impatiently:
"Tell me, what's your business this time? You're not just here to be a gardener in my dream, so I can see how you water the flowers, right?"
"Fake" Gan Yu slowly opened her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and there was no trace of emotion in her eyes.
She did not answer Shao Yun's question, but turned around, picked up the watering can, and continued to water the garden in her dream.
The clear water falls on the petals, splashing tiny water droplets, which reflect tiny rays of light in the sunlight.
After a long while, she spoke slowly.
"If you encounter any problems that you can't solve and need help, you can come to me."
"Because 'that person' has been a bit busy lately, seemingly dealing with something very important, so you can't find him for the time being."
"Anyway, we've worked together before, so you should know I can help you."
"Fake" Ganyu said as she did not stop watering the flowers. The flowers became more and more beautiful under her watering.
"Have we really met before?" When Shao Yun heard the word "cooperation", his mind went blank.
He tried hard to recall his past, whether it was the somewhat contradictory life as an outlaw in the Wild West or the experiences after coming to Teyvat, he had no memory of any cooperation with this mysterious goat.
"Why don't I have any impression of this? What are you talking about?"
"Fake..." Gan Yu paused in watering when she heard this, but she didn't turn around. She just said calmly: "That's why I changed my words and said that you have a bad memory."
Then, the dream became blurred again, the surrounding flowers gradually lost their color, and the figure of the "fake" Ganyu began to become transparent.
Everything in the dream disappeared again...
