The Lost People of Teyvat

Chapter 69 Surprise
After a series of crisp sounds of shattering pottery bowls, the treasure-hunting group below the stage saw that among the eleven bosses, ten of them suddenly had dark complexions, their eyes widened, and their incredulous gazes moved around before finally stopping at Zhang Xiwen and Chen Tianfeng, who looked unharmed.

You beasts! I just made a blood oath to the gods, and you guys are already doing this! ?

The ten heroes of the treasure-stealing team raised their hands tremblingly, blood oozing from their mouths. They opened their mouths but could not say anything. Finally, their eyes went black and they fell onto the high platform, walking not so peacefully on the road to the afterlife.

"The wine is poisonous!"

Zhang Xiwen cried out in surprise, then knelt on one knee beside the closest hero, crying out in sorrow: "Brother! Brother, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me, brother!"

You must be careful in the future! Not only the food handed over by Chen Tianfeng, but as long as he is present, everything that can be eaten can be considered poisonous!
Zhang Xiwen swallowed his saliva, his heart pounding.

At such a close distance, he didn't realize how Chen Tianfeng poisoned them! He didn't even touch the wine bowls!
"The Fatui! It must have been the Fatui!"

Chen Tianfeng's eyes were filled with sorrow and his voice was filled with anger: "We have already retreated to this point, but those fools are still trying to kill us all! Brothers! We have no way to retreat!"

"Qiang!"

He drew his sword from its sheath, the blade flashing coldly in the dim ruins: "But our ideals, the pursuit of the treasure-stealing group, and the right to survive that we were born with, must not be cut off today! Whoever wants us dead, we will kill him!"

"That's right!" Zhang Xiwen stood up, raised his bloody left hand, smeared a few blood marks on his face, and roared: "Fight them!!!"

"Fight!"

"Fight!!"

The many treasure-hunting groups below the stage were excited, roaring and drawing their swords. With a momentum like a rainbow mixed with a bit of madness, they rushed towards the Fatui's base in the ruins like a torrent!

Zhang Xiwen and Chen Tianfeng exchanged glances and tacitly blended into the former's treasure-stealing group.

"Be careful, don't rush too hard, your life is your own, understand?"

Zhang Xiwen whispered to his fellow treasure-stealing brothers, "Also, when we fight the Fatui later, quietly send those smart guys to see their boss."

The smart people naturally refer to those who saw through the poison and were planted by Chen Tianfeng and Zhang Xiwen. These people naturally have the quality of loyalty, which is very rare and precious for the treasure-stealing group.

But no matter how little, it exists.

Zhang Xiwen has several loyal brothers who follow him in his career. They are trustworthy. Even though he was cheated by Kaiya, they never left him and took the initiative to return to accompany him in jail.

Therefore, there must be such people in other treasure-stealing groups. Zhang Xiwen believed this very much, so out of respect, he prepared blades for them in advance.

These smart people who saw through everything naturally had the idea of ​​stabbing them in the back while the chaos was going on. This was not surprising. In fact, if Chen Tianfeng had not been good at deceiving people and the brothers of Zhang Xiwen's treasure-stealing group had not cooperated properly, these smart people would have been coerced by many ordinary treasure-stealing groups, blocking their chance to tell the truth, and things would not have gone so smoothly.

"Also, when the Knights come to encircle us, have you memorized everything you should do?"

"It's clear, boss."

Zhang Xiwen's brothers in the treasure-stealing group also lowered their voices and whispered: "Tie a piece of white cloth on your arm and shout loudly, 'We are one family' and 'Captain Kaiya is our backer'."

"Why do we need to tie a white cloth? Luckily one of my brothers is wearing a white shirt, otherwise I don't know where to find one."

"Also, Boss, who is 'Captain Kaia'? Why should we call him our backer?"

"Kaia is the cavalry captain of the Knights. Oh, that's old James."

"So it's old James! Hey, when did he change his name? He joined the Knights Templar and even became a cavalry captain?"

"." Zhang Xiwen was silent for a few seconds, looked at the brother who asked the question, and said with emotion: "Brother, you are indeed the person I trust the most."

With this kind of brain, if someone were to instigate him to betray, they would have to explain to him what "betraying" means first.
"The main force of the Fatui doesn't seem to be here. I'll go check ahead."

Chen Tianfeng held a long knife, said something to Zhang Xiwen, then quietly moved forward. After a while, he turned back with blood on the blade.

Zhang Xiwen noticed that the thieves of the treasure-stealing group had changed direction, and after a little thought, he understood. The Fatui were going to break the seal, and they had no intention of notifying the treasure-stealing group. They probably wanted to break the seal, take the treasure and run away, and leave the treasure-stealing group here to "cut off their retreat."

"Damn, these fools are nothing."

Zhang Xiwen cursed, and when he saw the blood on Chen Tianfeng's knife, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Brother Chen, what's this?"

"I killed a few fools and smart people. Tsk, there are too few fools here, so it's hard to start with."

Chen Tianfeng felt a little regretful and glanced at Zhang Xiwen and his brothers in the treasure-stealing group: "The rest is up to you. Are you sure?"

"Don't worry, brother Chen. I promise I won't let you down!"

Zhang Xiwen patted his chest and waved his hand, and the thieves in the treasure-stealing group quickly dispersed, merged into many other treasure-stealing groups, found their targets, and waited for their opportunity to act.

Chen Tianfeng wiped the blood off the long sword, sheathed it, slowed down his pace, and left the treasure-stealing group.

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen! You must be careful when you act alone." Zhang Xiwen came up and temporarily left the treasure-stealing group with Chen Tianfeng.

"What do you want to say, bro?"

Chen Tianfeng glanced at him and knew that he couldn't just be concerned or giving a reminder.

"That's right. I would like to ask Brother Chen to take his time. It would be best if we wait until Master Cornell breaks the seal before we take action."

Zhang Xiwen rubbed his hands and smiled sheepishly: "Although I am definitely not qualified and have no ability to take the secret treasure, it is good to see what the secret treasure looks like and broaden my horizons, isn't it?"

After he finished speaking, he noticed that Chen Tianfeng's expression was a little strange, as if he had heard something incredible. He couldn't help but be stunned: "Brother Chen?"

"You just said, Master Cornell?"

Chen Tianfeng stared at Zhang Xiwen and spoke as if to confirm something, his voice much lighter: "Cornell Reed?"

"Yes, that's right, it's him."

Zhang Xiwen swallowed his saliva and felt uneasy under Chen Tianfeng's gaze.

"So, is the man from the Lawrence family called Schubert?"

"Brother Chen knows him?"

"I know them, more than just knowing them, they are my dear friends that I have been thinking about day and night."

Chen Tianfeng grinned, his eyes full of coldness.

I finally found you. Is this the "surprise" that Wendy mentioned?

The unreliable Wind God finally became reliable for once. He made up his mind! When he got back, he would work with Wendy to make the Wind Poetry Band bigger and stronger! At least he had to earn enough to pay for Wendy's wine bills for the past few months!
