The Lost People of Teyvat

Chapter 144 and the beautiful landlord...

“The human heart is the most untestable and often cannot stand the test.”

Ye Lan shook her head, half squinted her eyes, glanced at the direction of the sun, and quickly retracted her gaze: "But these thieves are not targeting the treasure."

"It's strange that there are thieves who don't want treasure." Chen Tianfeng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then what do they want?"

You can't be liking the atmosphere of the abandoned mine tunnel in Mingyun Town, right?
"It's not clear yet. I'm planning to go and take a look myself." Ye Lan raised her hand, motioning the caravan to stop and rest. She turned to look at Chen Tianfeng and invited him with a smile, "Brother Chen, do you want to join us?"

In this way, she and Chen Tianfeng were also "fighting side by side".

"No, I have something else to do."

Chen Tianfeng's tone was regretful, but it didn't sound fake.

His most important goal now is to devour a native demon god of Teyvat as soon as possible and bring him back to life. The first choice is naturally Osel, the demon god of the vortex has been sealed for so long, there is a high probability that he is in a weak state - delicious and weak resistance, it is simply a godsend.

If you want to swallow Osel, you can try to participate in Mr. Zhongli’s retirement plan and make preparations for both situations.

If everything develops smoothly according to the plot, Mr. Zhongli still chooses to fake his death and abdicate, and during the ceremony of inviting the immortals, a dragon falls from the sky. Tianquan Ningguang, who is presiding over the ceremony, changes his expression and shouts "The Emperor has been assassinated, the whole place is blocked."

Then Liyue was in a state of high alert, and the Fatui did not forget their original intention to stir up trouble. The executive [Chief] Tartaglia worked hard to find the location of the Geo King's immortal transformation, and broke into it brazenly, but failed to get the Geo King's heart, so he realized the truth about Geo King's fake death.

So Tartaglia, who was not good at intrigue, thought for a while, and with the help of a large number of imitations of the Hundred Taboos Talismans, temporarily unlocked the seal of Osel in Guyun Pavilion, trying to force the Geo King to appear - a brave group.

The immortals and the Seven Stars worked together to fight against the rampant ancient demon. In the end, Ningguang abandoned the Jade Pavilion and turned it into a sky-falling giant star, successfully smashing Osel back into the seal.

What Chen Tianfeng had to do was to sneak into the seal when Osel broke it, and take the opportunity to harvest the ancient demon god who had been sealed for thousands of years. As for the pollution after the death of the demon god... Chen Tianfeng had always been reluctant to waste food.

But this is just one of the plans, and it is an option for the plot to continue to develop along the original trajectory. After all, no one can guarantee that the plot will not change. What if Mr. Zhongli suddenly decides to retire three or five hundred years later?

So in addition to waiting, Chen Tianfeng must take the initiative and get some key things in advance.

For example, the talisman with no taboos.

In this way, even if the plot changes, he can take the initiative to open a small hole in the seal and have a heart-to-heart exchange with Osel. I hope Osel's resistance will not be too fierce, otherwise he can only bear the shame and ask for help from the Rock King Emperor to fight a righteous two-on-one.

It is better to solve things that you can solve by yourself. If you rely on your own specialness and act like a rogue to get help, it is not a long-term solution.

Chen Tianfeng's thoughts gradually wandered, and he didn't notice Ye Lan's slightly hesitant smile when he refused.

"I wonder what's the matter, Brother Chen?"

Ye Lan still smiled, and said sincerely: "I still have some power in Liyue, Brother Chen, why don't you talk to me, maybe I can help you in some way."

"These are just some small matters, not worth Brother Lanyou's worry."

Chen Tianfeng came back to his senses, smiled and waved his hands.

"I see. That's a pity."

Ye Lan dismounted and handed the reins to a member of the caravan beside him. She glanced at Chen Tianfeng, who had also dismounted and thanked the caravan members in a low voice, and said casually, "Originally, I was thinking that Brother Chen didn't have any property in Liyue Port, and I just happened to have a vacant courtyard next to Chihu Rock..."

She said this, shook her head, and sighed: "Since Brother Chen is busy, let's forget it." Chen Tianfeng paused for a moment, and a warm smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Brother Lan You, what are you talking about! To be honest, I have had the idea of ​​visiting Mingyun Town for a long time. This time, accompanying Brother Lan You on a trip can be regarded as a dream come true."

"Oh? Brother Chen, don't force it. Your business is more important." Ye Lan said with a smile.

"I don't have any important matters. Brother Lan You's matters are the important matters!"

Chen Tianfeng looked serious.

Although the house in Liyue Harbor is not as rich as Yujingtai, it is not something he can afford with his regular job. But now he can get a house for free just by investigating some treasure-stealing group with Ye Lan.

Chen Tianfeng admitted that in his eyes at this moment, Ye Lan was shining with the golden light of Mora.

Is this the charm of a rich woman? Love it.

It’s hard to imagine that if Ye Lan is so rich that he can give away the property in Chihuyan, then Ningguang can also give away a few houses in Yujingtai?
Chen Tianfeng's eyes flickered slightly, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Brother Chen, don't force it."

Ye Lan glanced at him and said, "This trip is not an easy one. Even if everything goes well, it may take us more than half a month to return to Liyue Harbor. Brother Chen, do you have enough time?"

"I never force myself. Brother Lanyou may not know that there is a saying in my hometown: Time is like water in a sponge. If you squeeze it, there will always be some."

Chen Tianfeng patted his chest, smiled generously, and then asked shyly: "However, the real estate that Brother Lan You mentioned..."

"Don't worry, as long as Brother Chen is willing to accompany me, the small courtyard at Chihuyan..."

Ye Lan smiled and patted her chest, but unfortunately she was pretending and failed to create a beautiful scene of turbulent waves. She paused for a moment, changed the subject, and solemnly promised: "If Brother Chen wants to rent it, I can make the decision and reduce the rent by half."

"……what?"

Chen Tianfeng blinked, wondering if he had heard it wrong.

Rent cut in half? No, I still have to pay rent?
The golden light surrounding Ye Lan suddenly dimmed.

"Brother Chen?"

"Ah, I'm here."

Chen Tianfeng came back to his senses, looked Ye Lan up and down, and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Lan You is really amazing, I admire you."

The Queen of the Dark Night of Liyue couldn't even spend a fortune, which could only mean one thing: Ye Lan didn't have a big obsession with money, and she was even more disgusted with corruption. Otherwise, with her status, the power of heaven above her, and the top intelligence organization in Liyue under her control, it would be too easy for her to make money.

Ye Lan, who just wanted to tease Chen Tianfeng and had originally planned to give the courtyard to Chen Tianfeng, silently swallowed the words that were about to come out of her throat. It seemed that renting the courtyard to him would not be a bad idea?
Ye Lan blinked. Liyue always insisted on having a legitimate reason for doing things. If she rented the courtyard to Chen Tianfeng, she could meet him under the pretext of collecting rent and checking the damage to the house.

Although this excuse is a bit crude, it is better than nothing.

Ye Lan's eyelashes trembled. She glanced at Chen Tianfeng, who was sighing about something, and her mood couldn't help but become very good.
