The Homeless Man of Teyvat

"Squeak~"

"Mr. Zhongli, good morning."

"Good morning. What's the matter with you?"

Zhongli pushed open the door and looked at Chen Tianfeng, who was smiling and bowing respectfully.

If it were someone who didn't know the situation, they wouldn't have thought that this person had slept against the door all night and washed himself in the morning with the water in the water bag, so he looked so energetic.

"Sir, you taught me the martial arts, and you are my mentor." Chen Tianfeng's face was serious and serious: "My hometown has always emphasized the tradition of respecting teachers, so I came to pay my respects."

"I see, you are thoughtful."

Zhongli looked at Chen Tianfeng deeply, and was amused by his ability to talk nonsense without changing his expression: "But since you are in Liyue, you should try to adapt to the local customs. It would be too tiring to pay your respects every morning."

"Yes, I understand."

Chen Tianfeng nodded, and naturally took advantage of the situation. As long as Zhongli did not explicitly refuse, he would dare to call himself a disciple, and then he would be a teacher for a day and a father for life, trying to find a powerful and cheap godfather for himself in Teyvat.

"You don't have to call yourself a disciple. Teaching you the skills is a fair deal between you and me. I can't accept your call of "Master"."

Zhongli shook his head and smiled softly, "But you and I hit it off right away. If you are willing, we can probably be friends regardless of age."

"Yes, thank you for your kindness, sir!"

Chen Tianfeng bowed again, with genuine joy in his eyes.

It's good to be friends regardless of age, at least the relationship is closer, right?

"Do you have any plans today? If you want to visit Liyue's scenic spots, I have some good reference plans."

"No, what about Mr. Zhongli? What are your plans today?"

"Drink tea and listen to opera. If you have time, go to the Hall of Rebirth and sit for a while. Finally, walk around Liyue Harbor, and the day will pass."

"Mr. Zhongli's life is so leisurely that people envy him."

"It's just normal."

Zhongli closed the gate and walked along the familiar path, with Chen Tianfeng following him.

It was early morning at this moment, and the slightly cool air had the unique moist feeling of coastal cities. There were not many pedestrians around, and there were no vendors, which surprised Chen Tianfeng. He thought that near a special industry like Wangsheng Hall, there would be shops selling incense, candles, paper money and other goods.

"It is the ordinary that makes people envy, plain but not boring, ordinary people. This is the life that many people can't get."

"Young friend is so young, why do you talk like an old man, losing your vitality?"

"Hehe, because I am young, I like this feeling of [forcing sorrow to compose new words]."

"Forcing sorrow to compose new words... This sentence is very wonderful, is it also a poem from my hometown?"

"That's right. It's a coincidence that Liyue is very similar to my hometown in some places."

"Oh? I didn't expect there are such coincidences in the world, it's really wonderful."

Zhongli sighed, stopped at the intersection, turned around and looked at Chen Tianfeng who had been following him, and said helplessly: "Young friend, are you going to Heyu Teahouse for tea?"

"Mr. Zhongli is going too? What a coincidence!" Chen Tianfeng was surprised.

"···"

Zhongli glanced at him and realized that this guy had made up his mind to follow him these two days.

It's also interesting. He was still on guard against him the day before, but he came to seek shelter today-although the vigilance and precautions are still there, they have been reduced a lot.

"It's really unfortunate. I don't plan to go to Heyu Teahouse now. Mr. Yun's play will not start until the afternoon." Zhongli shook his head and didn't look at Chen Tianfeng's expression: "Although the teahouse is good, you can't go there all day."

"Mr. Yun? But the head of Yunhan Society, Mr. Yun Jinyun?"

Chen Tianfeng thought for a while and remembered this popular character in the game. He smiled naturally: "Since this is the case, my schedule will also change... I wonder where Mr. Zhongli plans to go to relax?"

"It's not leisure. The hall master told me a few days ago that the Wangsheng Hall will be busy for a while. Since I am a guest of the Wangsheng Hall, it's not good to be leisurely all the time. I still have to do my job." Zhongli said calmly.

It's rare that you still remember that you have a "main job"... Chen Tianfeng complained in his heart, but his smile remained unchanged: "So Mr. Zhongli is going to the Hall of Rebirth?"

"Yes."

"That's even more coincidental."

"Oh?"

"To be honest with Mr. Zhongli, I just earned some money and was preparing to find a time to go to the Hall of Rebirth to settle the balance."

Chen Tianfeng said calmly: "As the saying goes, it's better to do it today than tomorrow. I can also travel with Mr. Zhongli for a while."

"...My friend, this money must have been hard to come by." Zhongli sighed.

"In the adult world, there is no such thing as easy." Chen Tianfeng also sighed.

Qun Yu Pavilion,

Ningguang, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up by someone. She came to the office with a little grumpiness and sat on the carved pearwood chair. She covered her red lips with her jade hands and yawned slightly. Her beautiful eyes glanced at Ye Lan: "If there is no qualified reason, I will have people disturb your sleep for a month."

"Tsk, you are worthy of being Lord Tianquan, you have a bad temper."

Ye Lan teased and put away the dice in his hand: "Do you remember what I said the day before yesterday, about meeting an interesting person?"

"Remember. Just say it if you have something to say. I don't have much energy to listen to your review of the past."

Ning Guang yawned again, a little moisture appeared in the corner of his eyes, lazy and elegant. She is a very beautiful woman, with outstanding temperament and sparkling red eyes, as beautiful as gems, and as if there is a whirlpool hidden in the sea, making people almost unable to take their eyes away. The laziness and tiredness revealed at this moment is even more heart-pounding.

Miss Baishi, one of the [Tianquan confidants] who was also responsible for the important task of selecting clothes for Ningguang, covered her heart and felt that her heart was almost beating out.

Ahhhhh! ! Lord Ningguang is so beautiful! ! !

She thought of Master Ningguang's heroic appearance in front of everyone, and the back of Master Ningguang when changing clothes appeared in front of her eyes, and the jade-like body when he came out of the bath... Baishi wiped his saliva, and his eyes almost had pink hearts. Come.

Yelan glanced at Baishi, whose aura was slightly disordered, in confusion. Although she didn't know what happened, she always felt that there was something strange about Miss Baishi.

Forget it, business matters... Yelan looked back and said, "He grabbed a piece of 'broken snow'. The writing on it is very interesting. Can you take a look?"

Crushed snow?

Ning Guang's beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly, he took the paper and looked at it intently.

The next moment, the lazy and languid Ningguang disappeared, and the Tianquan Star in Liyue Port came online again. Her expression was solemn, and she read the brief information recorded on the paper twice as if to confirm, and turned to Ye Lan. : "Are you sure...this is 'broken snow'?"

"That's what he said."

Ye Lan smiled and did not answer directly, but it was no different from the answer: "What do you think?"

“I would rather believe that something exists than something that doesn’t exist.”

Ning Guang took a deep breath, raised her hand to rub her temples, and a strand of her silky white hair was scattered: "Do you know why I went to bed late last night?"

"It's not because of the update of your chess game called [Liyue Millennium], right?" Ye Lan raised an eyebrow.

"Of course not."

Ningguang was too lazy to pay attention to her and said: "The seal of the layered rock abyss fluctuated. The country of thunder, Rice Wife, secluded itself. The country of grass, Xumi, the conflict between the desert and the rain forest became more and more intensified. Even the fools in the winter began to frequent He acted as if he had received some signal, making small moves on the surface, but he didn’t know what he was planning secretly.”

"Now you have brought news that a dragon disaster is about to break out in Mondstadt. Oh, a wind elemental dragon is attacking Mondstadt, the Kingdom of Wind."

Ning Guang chuckled softly, her eyes gradually became serious. She looked into Ye Lan's eyes and said seriously: "I have a hunch that a storm sweeping the continent is about to come, Ye Lan."
