The Lost People of Teyvat

Chapter 151 The Legend of the Little White Face

"Just go and take a look and you'll find out."

Chen Tianfeng stood beside Ye Lan, also staring at the mine map: "Track the location of the black crystal horn, it will lead us to the source of the trouble."

There is no doubt that the black crystal horn given by Ye Lan must have been marked. Qian San thought of this and praised the two for their tacit understanding and mutual understanding.

It doesn’t matter if there is a problem with the horn, they still have the ability to trace the source.

Chen Tianfeng thought of the mute boy, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he was curious: "What exactly is the ground vein of Teyvat?"

“It’s the memory recorded by the earth.”

Ye Lan replied, she exhaled softly: "As for how these memories were recorded and why they were reproduced in the form of projection, it is something that only the gods know."

God... the Great Compassionate Tree King?

Or the little auspicious grass king?

They are the incarnations of the World Tree, and the leylines are most likely the roots of the World Tree, so perhaps they know something?
When I go to Xumi in the future, if I have the chance, I can seek answers from the God of Grass.

Chen Tianfeng stroked his chin. For some reason, he always had a hunch that one day in the future, he might need to rely on the power of the earth veins to complete some transformation.

But this feeling is vague and unclear, and cannot be seen clearly.

He shook his head, temporarily suppressing these thoughts, and looked at Ye Lan: "What are you going to do?"

"My original idea was to gather enough people - if necessary, I could also borrow Ningguang's name to call in a Thousand Rocks Army - and after finding out the location of the Maple Leaf Treasure Stealers, I would directly surround them and use my strength to overwhelm them, not giving them any chance to resist."

"It's hard to believe that you could come up with such a conservative and safe plan."

"...Sometimes I am really curious about the image of me in Brother Chen's mind. What do you think I will plan?"

"Well, you go into the enemy camp alone, like a ghost, making it impossible for the enemy to find your location, die in fear and panic, and finally set fire to the crime scene, and leave without paying any attention to the flames and explosions behind you."

"...Brother Chen, are you serious?" Ye Lan's eyes were startled, and she said incredulously: "You are really describing me, and not some vicious and cold-blooded thug?"

"..."

Chen Tianfeng was a little embarrassed and couldn't help but look away from her.

"But what Brother Chen said is very interesting. Why don't we do it this way?"

Ye Lan thought for a moment and made a decision. She pursed her lips and smiled. In Chen Tianfeng's slightly surprised eyes, she pinched his chin with her slender white fingers and said frivolously: "Don't worry, I will protect you, my husband."

"squeak--"

"Boss, everything is ready. When are we going to..."

Qian San pushed open the door and saw this shocking yet surprisingly reasonable scene - the Queen of Darkness was playing with her pretty boy.

Qian San's face was stiff, and he clearly understood that he had come at the wrong time. Encountering such a scene ruined Boss Ye Lan's good deeds, and all his efforts along the way were wasted.

Damn it, he should have knocked!
Qian San's brain was working frantically, thinking about what to say in order to extricate himself from this embarrassing situation and calm the anger of Boss Ye Lan.

Ye Lan withdrew her hand without any embarrassment, shame or awkwardness. She glanced at Qian San and said with a half-smile: "Well done, thank you for your hard work."

"No hard work, no hard work..."

Qian San lowered his head and was sweating coldly.

If he didn't know that Boss Ye Lan was not that kind of person, he would have suspected that he would be deducted two months' salary and bonus because he stepped into the door with his left foot first, or that he would be shot in the back with eighteen arrows and die by suicide.

"Move your stuff to the front yard. We'll be there soon."

Ye Lan stopped smiling, waved her hand, and signaled Qian San to leave.

"Yes, Boss, I'll go right away." Qian San felt relieved, knowing that this meant that Boss Ye Lan didn't want to bother with him, so he quickly backed away, not forgetting to close the door.

The two people in the room looked at each other, then quickly looked away, both aware of the subtle atmosphere.

With their joint efforts, the rumor of "The Queen of the Night and her gigolo" is about to become a reality.

Chen Tianfeng scratched his hair, looked up at the map hanging on the wall, and spoke to break the atmosphere that was gradually sliding towards a bad state: "Can you determine the exact location of the Black Crystal Horn now?"

“…Probably here.”

Ye Lan came back to her senses, glanced at Chen Tianfeng's profile, and thought about something before turning her gaze to the map and pointing to a certain location.

Chen Tianfeng looked at the place Ye Lan pointed at, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Abandoned No. 2 Mine Tunnel?"

"Yes, Mine Tunnel No. 2. Brother Chen, thank you for taking this risk with me."

"It should."

……

forecourt,

Qian San was standing next to several large boxes of supplies, with a burly man standing next to him.

"Qian San, why hasn't the boss come yet?"

"How should I know? If the boss isn't coming, then he must have something more important to do. We just have to wait."

"Hey, Qian San, I have a question."

"Let it go if you fart."

"Fuck you... Never mind. I don't want to bother with you."

The burly man raised his hand and pointed at him, then put it down. He then looked around and lowered his voice: "Is the one next to the boss the legendary one?"

"Legend? What legend?"

"That's it." The man winked and said, "It was told by the brothers in Liyue Harbor. The eldest brother got old and finally started to think about his own affairs, so he kept a gigolo."

"…Let's not talk about the damn saying 'the boss has reached old age'."

Qian San's mouth twitched, and he looked at the burly man with a puzzled look on his face: "Shouldn't this be a rumor? How come it is a legend?"

"Just think about what kind of person the boss is. Let's not talk about anything else, just the interrogation methods, sometimes we brothers are scared when we see them! It can be said that we, and anyone who knows a little about the boss, are full of respect for him."

The burly man had a good reason: "But that brother not only dared to have improper thoughts about the boss, but also dared to be the boss's gigolo - if this is not a legend, what is it?"

"..."

Qian San glanced at the burly man with an admiring look on his face, thought about it, and decided to keep the fact that "Boss Ye Lan had improper thoughts about Brother Chen" to himself.

He is still young and has not had time to enjoy life, but he doesn't want to suddenly "commit suicide".

"So it's him?"

"How should I know? Why don't you just ask Brother Chen?"

"Do I look stupid?"

"Don't tell me, it's true."

"...How come you haven't been beaten to death yet?"
