The Lost People of Teyvat

Chapter 203 Long time no see
Chen Tianfeng is dead, Chen Tianfeng is dead, Chen Tianfeng is dead...

Ying's head was buzzing with confusion, her heart was tense, her vision narrowed and diverged, she stared at Zhongli blankly, wanting to say something, wanting to question something, but her throat was choked and she couldn't utter a word.

Zhongli seemed to be saying something, but she couldn't hear it clearly.

She thought of her first encounter with Chen Tianfeng. He fell from the sky and crashed into the river, splashing a large amount of water. Although he had fainted, he still held the long sword tightly in his hand, full of vigilance.

But such a vigilant person did not refuse her fish soup.

She thought back to the first night they met, when he offered to keep watch and, taking advantage of some conversation, he introduced her in detail to this strange world called Teyvat.

Obviously, he is also an outsider and has only a limited understanding of this world.

She thought of the invitation to travel with them, the trips they had taken together, the leisurely boat on Starfall Lake, the band they had formed together in Mondstadt...she thought of the sudden separation and the promise of reunion.

"Then I am your first old friend in Liyue Harbor."

This liar... We clearly said we would meet again in Liyue Harbor...

Ying took a deep breath, glanced at the teacup beside her, and remembered the gift she had just received.

"This is a thoughtful gift, so you must cherish it."

Miss Ying'er's words rang in my ears, but the person who had invested such love in me was no longer there.

The god who appeared in the ceremony of summoning the immortal was not the Rock King, but Chen Tianfeng, her travel companion, the one who had agreed to travel together with her in Teyvat.

That’s why they were able to obtain the “legacy of the Rock God”. No, how can this be called “legacy of the Rock God”?
This is clearly the last gift Tian Feng gave her!

"This liar... liar!"

Ying murmured softly, suddenly stood up, rushed out of [Three Bowls Are Not Across the Harbor], and ran towards the Golden House.

"Ying! Where are you going?! Wait! Wait for me!"

Paimon looked anxious and followed Ying without hesitation, rushing out together.

The scene was in chaos. The servant first looked at Ying and Paimeng who had disappeared, then looked at Zhongli, his expression nervous and worried.

Afraid that someone might not pay attention, this well-dressed gentleman would run away in such a sloppy manner - and they hadn't paid yet!
"Sorry, some of my companions have some urgent matters, please don't blame me."

Zhongli noticed the servant's gaze, coughed lightly, and said, "I'll settle the bill... and compensation, please give me a quote."

……

"Chen Tianfeng, I'm also a traveler, nice to meet you."

"Yes, I am also a traveler from outside the world."

"Learning sword skills from you... Well, I'll have to trouble 'Teacher Ying'. I will be very grateful."

"Really, it's hard to imagine how you, with such a kind heart, can travel across the sea of ​​stars."

"Let me be your first old friend in Liyue Harbor. When we meet again, will you tell me the wonderful stories you encountered during your journey? Okay?"

Ying pursed her lips tightly and strode forward along the flagstone-paved streets of Liyue Harbor. Memories surged up like a cold rain, making Tianfeng's appearance clear and blurry, and her ears were filled with the sounds of the past.

She didn't even say goodbye to him properly.

When Ying realized this, her heart ached, her nose felt sore, and her blurred vision pulled the surrounding scenery into thin threads.

"You said you would wait for me in Liyue Harbor and listen to my stories about my journey... How could you go back on your word?"

“Liar…Liar!”

Ying raised his arm to wipe his eyes, raised his sword, and rushed straight into the Golden House. In his anxiety, he did not notice that the Golden House was too quiet today, and there was not even a Qianyan Army soldier.

"Stop it! Tartaglia!"

That was Tian Feng's body! She would never allow anyone to desecrate it!
Ying's voice was filled with chill and anger. She rushed into the deepest part of the Golden House, pointing her sword straight at him, her edge flashing: "I will never allow... Eh?"

The girl stood there in a daze, her mind suddenly confused. Who could tell her what was happening?
Tian Feng... Isn't Tian Feng dead?

Who is this gray-white giant snake that is wrapped around Tartaglia with its tail and looks quite miserable as if it had been beaten?

...

...

a few minutes ago,

"I was sleeping soundly, and you came up and gave me a black tiger heart-piercing blow?"

The gray-white giant snake seemed to be a bit grumpy, staring at Tartaglia angrily. He exerted a little force with his tail, and Tartaglia groaned, and a "crackling" sound came from his whole body. The incomplete mask on his face could no longer withstand the pressure and turned into a light spot and dissipated.

"puff!"

Tartaglia spat out a mouthful of blood, silently estimated his own injuries, and finally came to the conclusion: the giant snake god in front of him was holding back.

Otherwise, he would not be alive, and the most serious injury would not be as simple as the backlash caused by the explosion of [Demon King's Armor].

However, the demon-level existence was indeed terrifying. Even though he tried his best, he was unable to cause any trouble to the opponent. Instead, he was easily subdued and lost the ability to resist in a few moves.

but……

Tartaglia stared at the giant snake, his tone a little weak, but very sure: "You are not the Rock King, who are you?"

"Bullshit! How dare you assume my identity?" the giant snake sneered.

"Because what I just took out of your chest was the Heart of the God of Wind!"

"Then I am the God of Wind!"

"When you hit me just now, you didn't use the wind element at all!"

"Oh, who said that the Wind God must use the wind element? Naive!"

"you!"

Tartaglia was blocked and glared at the giant snake in annoyance. He was almost fainted by this unreasonable god. However, he was confused in his heart - this giant snake god didn't seem to want to kill him, why?
The man and the snake were staring at each other, and suddenly they realized something and turned their heads at the same time, and saw the blonde girl rushing in with a sword in hand, full of anger and coldness.

The man and the snake were both stunned at the same time, and their momentum declined to varying degrees.

"I'm sorry, buddy. I took advantage of you..."

Tartaglia felt quite guilty, then thought of something and said anxiously: "Let's get out of here! He is not the Rock King! We have all been deceived! Also, stop Mr. Zhongli, the Golden House is in danger, we must not let him..."

"I know." Ying interrupted him.

"……Um?"

Tartaglia was stunned, bewildered and confused.

Know? Know what? Know that there is danger here, so you have stopped Mr. Zhongli?

Just as he was about to ask, he saw the blonde girl looking up at the gray-white giant snake, reaching out to tuck her scattered hair behind her ears, and smiling brightly:
"Tianfeng, long time no see."

Tian Feng? Who?

Tartaglia blinked, but before he could react, his expression suddenly changed and he was thrown out by the giant snake without a care, rolling on the ground for several times before stopping.

"Oh!"

"Cough cough..."

Tartaglia coughed a few times and managed to sit up. She saw the giant snake lower its head and level its eyes with the girl. Its tone was extremely gentle:
"Well, long time no see, Ying."
