The Lost People of Teyvat

Chapter 165 Rock King Diji
"Take a look, take a look, these are the best Sumeru dates, if they are not sweet, you don't have to pay for them!"

"A Fontaine specialty! A clockwork bird that can sing, with a beautiful, lifelike voice, and a reasonable price!"

"Inazuma Naganohara Fireworks! Buy two get one free, buy more, get more!"

Hearing the sound, Chen Tianfeng looked towards the fireworks stall, thought for a moment, went forward to buy some fireworks, and asked the stall owner if he had any notes from the Naganohara Fireworks Shop for sale.

It is said that Naganohara Fireworks Shop has a tradition that any customer who orders fireworks at the fireworks shop will be given a note. If the customer wants to see the fireworks again, he can take the note and go to the fireworks shop to order again.

"Well... to be honest with you, I really don't have any Naganohara notes here." The stall owner looked at the big customer in front of him, thought for a few seconds, and said, "If you really want it, I can help you inquire about it. I guarantee that you can get the note you want within two days. But you have to pay a deposit, not much, three hundred Mora will be enough."

"Also, if you want to collect it, that's fine. But if you want to take this note to Inazuma to have the fireworks made, we can't guarantee what style the fireworks will be, nor can we guarantee whether you like them."

It can be seen that this stall owner has been in the port market for many years and will stay there for many more years in the future. Therefore, he is worried that if Chen Tianfeng is not satisfied with the blind box way of buying paper slips, he will come back to trouble him. So he specifically reminded him to take precautions.

"Take my word." The stall owner thought about it and didn't want to take any risks: "If the customer decides to go to Inazuma and Naganohara Fireworks Shop in the future, there is no need to buy any ready-made paper strips, just go and customize the fireworks."

"That's true, thanks for the reminder."

Chen Tianfeng bowed, left the fireworks stand, and gave up the idea of ​​buying notes.

"My friend, are you interested in Inazuma?"

Zhongli seemed to be thinking about something.

"I'm not really interested, I just thought if I had the chance, I could go there and take a look."

Chen Tianfeng shook his head and thought of a lively, kind and energetic firework girl. For a moment, he felt that the corpse spots on his body - if there were any - had faded a little.

"As long as you want, there will always be opportunities. You might as well make Inazuma your next stop. The scenery there is beautiful, and the culture and history are very interesting. It is worth a visit."

Zhongli said in a gentle voice: "My friend, you have nothing to do in Liyue anyway, why not leave early so that you can have more time to travel and have fun."

"...Mr. Zhongli."

"My friend, please tell me."

"Even if I go to Inazuma for a trip, the trip will always end. Also, if I want to leave Inazuma and go to other countries, I have to pass through Liyue on the way."

"You can take a boat directly to Xumi. The scenery there is also very unique. Whether it is a rainforest or a desert, it will not disappoint you."

"But it's not good to travel all the time. I have to settle down somewhere."

"Of course, when you feel tired from traveling, it is only right for you to choose a country to stop and rest. Mondstadt, Inazuma, Xumi, or Fontaine, I believe there are always places that you like and are suitable for you."

"What about Liyue? Mr. Zhongli, do you welcome me to settle in Liyue?"

"..."

Zhongli still smiled, looked up at the sky, and naturally changed the subject: "It's getting late, have you bought everything you wanted, young friend?"

Chen Tianfeng remained unmoved and continued to ask, "Mr. Zhongli, do you welcome me to settle in Liyue?"

"There's a new store opening up ahead. I wonder what they sell. Do you want to go take a look?"

"So, Mr. Zhongli, do you welcome me to settle in Liyue?"

"..." Zhongli's expression became helpless, and he sighed: "Of course you are welcome."

These words sounded extremely helpless, as if someone was threatening them with a gun to their temple.

Chen Tianfeng was satisfied and did not continue to push his luck.

The two continued walking forward and came to the newly opened shop. It was a shop that specialized in selling clay figurines. The shop owner had put a lot of thought into the lighting in the shop, using lamps that used an unknown energy source. Under the bright white light, the clay figurines in the glass display cabinets looked even more exquisite, making people fall in love with them.

Chen Tianfeng couldn't help but marvel, especially after seeing the shop put up a sign saying "Accepting Customization", he admired the shop's craftsmanship even more.

"Huh? What is this?"

Chen Tianfeng stopped and half-closed his eyes to look at the clay doll beside him. The doll was very delicate, and it looked like a beautiful woman wearing a horse-faced skirt, mature and dignified, not like an ordinary person. And whether it was the expression of the figure, the hair or the hem of the clothes, they were all lifelike and could be called a fine product.

The only problem is that, although the doll looks very unfamiliar, Chen Tianfeng always feels an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if he has seen her somewhere.

"Mr. Zhongli, do you know which immortal this puppet belongs to?"

Chen Tianfeng touched his chin and felt that she should be one of the legendary immortals in Liyue.

"..."

Zhongli looked at Chen Tianfeng deeply, and after determining that he really didn't recognize him, he said, "Yes, he is one of the incarnations of the Rock King Emperor in the Liyue legend."

The tone was calm, but the content was shocking.

Chen Tianfeng blinked his eyes once, then blinked again, and finally let out a soft "hiss". After hesitating for a few seconds, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is it true? Did Prince Yan really have this kind of incarnation?"

Does Princess Rock King really exist?
"perhaps."

Zhongli's expression was calm, and there was no sign of anything unusual: "The Rock King has countless incarnations, so maybe there really is such an image. But this one right now..."

He glanced at the puppet of the mature older sister and shook his head, "It's probably just people's imagination. From what I know, the Rock King Emperor would not wear this style of clothing."

"That's it..."

Chen Tianfeng nodded. He really wanted to buy the doll, but he was worried that the old man would get really angry and smash a star on his head, so he had to give up with regret and did not stop looking.

"Speaking of which, what does Mr. Zhongli think of Emperor Yan?"

"The Emperor is kind and loving, he protects Liyue, and has walked with the people of Liyue for thousands of years. In the eyes of ordinary people, the Geo Emperor knows everything, and is the most important and indispensable person in Liyue."

Zhongli paused and shook his head slightly: "But in my opinion, the Emperor is not omniscient. He also has things he doesn't understand and he makes mistakes."

As soon as Zhongli finished speaking, a clear female voice was heard from the side.

"well said!"

Chen Tianfeng turned around and saw this woman who was as bold as Zhongli and dared to say "bad things" about the Geo King in Liyue. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The woman had long, smooth purple hair tied into two ponytails. Where the ponytails met the top of her head, they were tied into two small horns, shaped like cat ears, which was extremely cute.

——It was Keqing, the Jade Star.
