The Homeless Man of Teyvat

Chen Tianfeng gathered some firewood, lit the fire, smashed the photo recorder with a hammer, and threw it into the fire together with the photos he had carefully found.

In the crackling sound of the flames, it seemed that he had turned back into the innocent young man.

But this is ultimately impossible.

"I don't want to do this either, really. But I don't have a choice, brother."

Chen Tianfeng kicked the thief's head into the fire, sat next to the Changdao Mountain Bandit, and took a breath: "Among these people, you are the only one who sincerely hopes that I will live, even though I don't know what you plan to do."

"But debts are wiped out after death, right? It doesn't matter anymore."

"I originally thought about letting you live, really, I promise. But then I thought about it, firstly, poisoning like this is too flawed, and secondly, you will definitely take revenge, right?"

"After all, you four brothers are close friends of life and death. We have only known each other for two days. No matter how much you think about it, you will not help me hack your boss to death, right?"

Chen Tianfeng muttered to himself, both to the Changdao Mountain bandits and to himself: "So I have no choice, I don't want to die, I want to live a clean life... Doesn't that mean you have to die? I have no choice. Ah, brother."

He was silent for a moment, looked at the thief who had transformed into "Burning Man" again, and looked down at the evil gem in his hand.

[Evil Eye] - If I remember correctly, this is the name of this thing.

From the Kingdom of Ice to Winter, [Doctor], one of the eleven executive officers of the Fools under the Ice God, developed something imitating the [Eye of God], which allows the holder to exchange lifespan and vitality for power.

The [Eye of God] is different. It seems to be an "external magic organ" that allows the owner to control a certain element at no cost.

A common saying in the continent of Teyvat is that when people's wishes are too strong, they may attract the attention of gods and obtain the [Eye of God], an external elemental magic organ, used to guide the power of elements.

Every creature with the [Eye of God] is qualified to become a god, and is therefore called the [Original God].

——But what the reality is, it depends on the benevolent and the wise.

Teyvat has seven elements, wind, rock, thunder, grass, water, fire and ice. There are also seven kingdoms in the world, and each kingdom has a god. They each control an element and are called the seven rulers of the world. They are nominally "employees" of Sky Island.

The owner of Sky Island is [Tianli], who seems to be sleeping currently, and the specific situation is unknown.

Without further ado, let’s get back to the topic.

[Eye of God] is the mainstream in the Teyvat continent and is also the most recognized way to obtain power.

Of course, in addition to the [Eye of God], the creatures of Teyvat have other ways to obtain power. For example, the monsters of Inazuma in the Kingdom of Thunder use demonic power, and the Abyss Cult, who is thinking about overturning the world, will use the power of the abyss, and the immortals in Liyue of the Rock Kingdom may be able to practice Qigong.

It is said that the aborigines of this world are dragons. Later, after experiencing such and such things, they were destroyed by the laws of nature, and the dragons became a remnant force. They may use other powers, or they may not need the [God's Eye] to use elemental power— —Like a certain blond traveler.

The blond travelers are a brother and sister, the protagonists in the game, who came from the sea of ​​​​stars. They also experienced one thing or another, and the brothers and sisters were separated. One becomes a prince (or princess) of the Abyss Order and plans to go to war with Heaven; the other starts from Mondstadt and plans to travel to the seven countries to find blood relatives and the truth.

I don’t know if the plot has started yet, whether the blonde traveler is a boy or a girl...

Chen Tianfeng patted his cheek, put back these messy thoughts, looked at the evil eye in his hand, and hesitated in his heart.

This thing looks like a semi-finished product. I don’t know how the thief got it. It’s probably not clean. The cost of using it was also too high. Such a burly thief's head became thinner than Scarface not long after it was activated.

The cost is higher than that of a bad boy's plug-in. Once activated, the enemy will not know what happened to it, and the user will definitely be dead - there is no need to choose such an extreme method if you want to gain power.

The most important thing is that this thing is still bad... Chen Tianfeng sighed. He originally thought that no matter how bad the evil eye was, it was still a good thing that would die together. At least it could make people die under certain circumstances. Be more dignified.

But unexpectedly, when he tried to activate the evil eye and try to calculate and control the speed of life force loss, the thing showed no response and looked like a disposable one.

So the Evil Eye changed from a "troublesome but useful treasure" to a "troublesome but useless waste".

He sighed again, and with the idea of ​​​​out of sight, out of mind, he threw the evil eye into the fire and returned it to the thief.

"Brother, I promised you that as long as the brothers are still here, I will always be a thief of the Silver Wings Treasure Thief Group... But now the brothers happen to be gone."

Chen Tianfeng took out the silver crow seal from his arms and threw it into the fire: "So, brother, I am not lying."

After a while, Chen Tianfeng felt that he had rested enough. He hung the Chang Dao Bandit's knife on his waist, held the torch, and walked into the darkness behind the small temple.

Not long after, Chen Tianfeng moved the foolish boy back to the open space in front of the small temple, where he had piled firewood.

"Since the people of Liyue are based on Shenzhou, they would like to put you in the grave. But I don't have the ability to carry you back to Liyue, so this is the only way."

Chen Tianfeng looked at the foolish boy who finally calmed down, and carefully wiped off the blood on his body. His clothes had cuts cut by branches and blades, and were stained with blood. Chen Tianfeng thought for a while, then took off his coat and put it on for him.

"This is the most valuable thing I have. It's the best cashmere."

Chen Tianfeng muttered, throwing the torch in his hand into the firewood pile, and threw in two more bottles of gunpowder. Then the flames ignited, covering the face of the foolish young man.

"Fool···"

Chen Tianfeng paused, took a breath, smiled, and called out the name of the idiot boy for the first time: "Yuan Mu, please feel sorry for yourself first. When I return to Liyue Port, I will go to the Palace of Life to arrange a luxurious stay for you." I will also deliver the medicine to your funeral. Don’t worry, I don’t usually lie to people.”

The flames were still burning. It was impossible for the boy named Yuan Mu to answer Chen Tianfeng's words, and he would no longer mutter words such as "mother-in-law", "I don't want to die", and "the medicine was stolen".

Chen Tianfeng turned around and returned to the small temple, inheriting the unmarked inheritance of the Silver Wings Treasure Thieves Group that would not be recognized as stolen goods. No one objected the whole process. I think the brothers who came to Silver Wings in Hell would also smile with relief if they knew this.

After he packed everything up, the flames that hugged Yuan Mu just went out.

Chen Tianfeng carried a hammer. After preliminary processing, he wrapped the ashes in clean cloth, put them into a relatively clean jar, and placed them on a cart.

The pony leader was inexplicably wary of Chen Tianfeng and began to bray and struggle when he saw him approaching. On the contrary, the donkey pulling the cart was very docile and accepted the fodder fed by Chen Tianfeng.

Chen Tianfeng didn't force it, he just untied the donkey's reins, hitched the cart, and finally drove the donkey cart away along the way he came.

The small temple behind him was engulfed in flames, illuminating the dirt road in front of the donkey cart.

······

The night gradually passed, and when a ray of light appeared on the horizon, only the charred and collapsed remains of the small temple were left.

Another group of people arrived while the night was still dark, and the flames ignited in the night apparently guided them in the direction. Thanks to their efforts, the ruins of the small temple were left behind, and the mountain forest did not cause more violent wildfires because someone set the small temple on fire.

"Sir, it has been confirmed that all the members of the Silver Wings Treasure Thief Group are here. Judging from the appearance of the bodies, the four members died after being stabbed through the heart with a knife. The cause of death of the thief leader is more complicated. We found Lei, There are remnants of the fire element, as well as penetration wounds and traces of life force being sucked out by the evil eye.”

"It sounds like we encountered some serious trouble."

Ye Lan looked at the five people and one horse who had been stripped out and arranged. Their faces were blurred by severe burns, and they could only provide a small amount of information: "We are a little late...Have the evil eye been found?"

"Found it. The man doesn't seem to have any intention of taking away the evil eye. I don't know if it's because he doesn't know the evil eye." The subordinate presented the evil eye found in a pile of ashes to Ye Lan and said his speculation.

The evil eye is an evil thing created by the Fool Executive [Doctor] - this is something they have known for a long time under the leadership of Lord Ye Lan. The purpose of these people's trip is to secretly cooperate with Qianyan's army to suppress the bandits, and capture these bandits who have received the evil eye and have committed serious crimes one by one, regardless of life or death.

I just didn't expect the core members of the Silver Wing Treasure Thieves to be so cunning and decisive. They gave up most of their members and belongings without hesitation, and ran out before the encirclement and suppression network was formed.

After Master Yelan completed the more important task of suppressing bandits, he took them and followed the traces. Unfortunately, an accident happened - these bandits died silently in a small temple in the mountain.

They are led by Lord Yelan and are Liyue's strength to walk in the darkness. Naturally, he was very interested in such an accident.

"No, he knows the evil eye." Ye Lan shook his head and looked at the thief: "Someone used the evil eye in front of him. If he didn't recognize it, he would take it away as a valuable treasure instead of just throwing it away. it's here."

As for whether he was frightened by the price of using the evil eye, so he gave it up... How could a ruthless man who killed five people in a row and refused to let go of a horse be frightened?

"Did you find anything else?"

"Yes, the molas and some of the belongings of these gangsters were taken away."

"Could it be that they were stealing wealth and killing people? But how many Mora can these treasure-thief gangs have in their bodies?" Ye Lan frowned, "Or is this [accident] someone who loves Mora as much as Ning Guang? "

The subordinate, who was camouflaged in black, lowered his head and pretended that he did not hear.

Mora is a round metal currency commonly used in the seven countries of Teyvat. It is golden in color and has seven denominations: one, five, ten, fifty, one hundred, five hundred and one thousand.

Molas of different denominations not only have different sizes, but also contain different energies.

In the continent of Teyvat, Mora is not only currency, but also an alchemical material. Mora is cast from a precious metal that everyone can understand.

Among the Seven Kingdoms of Teyvat, only the Golden House in Liyue can cast and produce molas in large quantities with the help of the authority of the rock god Morax, known as the "God of Precious Gold".

Different from the game, the prices in Teyvat countries are not that outrageous. The purchasing power of Mora is equivalent to the RMB in the original world. An ordinary home-cooked dish will not cost thousands of Mora.

"Anyway, all evil eyes have been collected and the planned plan has been completed."

Ye Lan retracted her thoughts and looked at the latest rut: "As for this accident... I will handle it. You guys clean up the scene and go back to Liyue Port."

"Yes, sir."

The black-clothed subordinate nodded in response. There was nothing to clean up at the scene. A fire burned away all traces of the "accident", and the only clue left behind was a vague rut.

He raised his head and glanced at the sky. It was gloomy, and he thought it would rain heavily soon, washing away the last traces.

Ye Lan also noticed the gloomy sky, so she stopped delaying and chased along the rut while quietly completing the amazing disguise: her beautiful face became ordinary, and her bulging chest became flat.

In just an instant, she changed from the queen of the night with a troubled mind to an ordinary Liyue merchant.

I don't know what "Accident" is doing now... Yelan glanced at the increasingly sleepy sky, thinking about which pseudonym to use.
