Chapter 20 Immortal Mandrill
As we all know, if you want to get to Liyue Harbor from Mondstadt, there are three routes to choose from.
The first route starts from Mondstadt, passes through Qingquan Town and Dawn Winery, and arrives at the border between Mondstadt and Liyue - Shimen, then goes all the way south, passing Dihuazhou, Wangshu Inn, Guiliyuan, and finally arrives at Liyue Port.
The second road is different from the first one in that it starts from Mondstadt, passes through Qingquan Town, and reaches the snow-covered road of Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain. (This is the road that many travelers take when they are new. EMM, they must have frozen to death many times. After all, the author has done it too.) Then you reach Mingyun Town, and the rest of the road is basically the same as the first one.
The third route is by water, starting from Mondjingfu Port and then taking a boat all the way to Liyue Port.
However, as the protagonist, of course, I want to know the world from the perspective of a traveler, so I chose the first path. After all, compared with the previous games, the map here is at least dozens of times larger, and it took another day and night to travel through the teleportation anchor point.
So after Tianhe arrived at the Stone Gate, it can be clearly seen here compared to the game that since Grand Master Falgar has not yet decided to expedition to the northern border of Teyvat, the Knights of Favonius have sufficient military power to control the order in Mondstadt, so there are still Knights of Favonius stationed at the Stone Gate, and walking over is the Thousand Winds Army garrison of Liyue.
After submitting the clearance documents written by the Knights Falga himself, Tianhe successfully passed the inspection of the Thousand Winds Army and officially stepped into the territory of Liyue. He looked around and saw that there was no one around. Originally, he was planning to continue walking, but he saw Wendy secretly following him out, and then said in a nonsensical manner: "Hey, brother, do you need someone to take you with you?" So with the blessing of the God of Wind, Tianhe went to Liyue Port even faster.
However, what Tianhe didn't know was that the moment he stepped into Liyue, his information was also sent to the desk of Ningguang, the Seventh Star of Liyue Tianquan. Ningguang looked at the information on the desk and held her beloved pipe in her hand.
Then she pursed her lips, her beautiful eyes moved, she sat on the chair and stood up again, she laughed, looked for a while and said: "Oh, interesting, this person suddenly appeared in Mondstadt, and it only took him three months to get the Mondstadt people, and now he has come to Liyue, huh."
Ningguang finished reading the information, snorted coldly, threw it into the furnace, watched it slowly turn into ashes, and then said to the shadowy and empty place next to her: "Ye Lan, take some time to meet this guest. If you are sure that he is not a threat to Liyue, invite him to the Qun Yu Pavilion for a chat. I want to see who this young man is."
Tianhe's reputation not only spread to Liyue Tianquan Star, there was even information that he was the descendant of an immortal family and had gone to Mondstadt for vacation. There was even information that he had relationships with many beautiful women in Mondstadt. Well, this information was indeed very important. If necessary, Ningguang could also see what kind of charm this young man had that attracted the favor of so many women.
At the same time, an executive officer of the Fatui, an orange-haired lady, also received information about Tianhe from her subordinates. Dadalia, who had just arrived in Liyue, was unfamiliar with the place and was worried about not being able to find an opponent to fight with.
Suddenly, she heard that a powerful opponent worthy of her full effort had arrived in Liyue. She laughed loudly, covered her head with one hand and said as she walked, "Interesting, interesting. This young man is so strong that he can fight against the Knight of the North Wind of the Knights of Favonius. He can fight on par with the Grand Master and not lose the upper hand. I will deal with this kind of opponent!"
Then, as she was talking, Dadalia became excited and didn't notice that there was a stone under her feet, which was in close contact with the ground. "Oh, it hurts, it hurts, hey, this little injury is nothing to worry about." Dadalia covered her face. Although this little injury would not be a trauma to her, she still felt a burning pain when she fell flat on the ground.
"Tsk, let's deal with the new debt first." The Fatui executive fled and disappeared into the crowd. Her current mission was that the Fatui general officer, Joker, sent her to approach a man named Zhong Li. It was said that this man had served as a guest official in the Hall of Rebirth for many years, and he was well-educated, well-versed in history and the present, and very famous. Although Dadalia didn't know why she wanted to approach such a figure in the underworld, Joker said it was related to the Princess of the Rock King, so she didn't say anything more.
At the same time, Tianhe traveled day and night, and with the blessing of Wendy's wind elemental power, he flew quickly in the sky. After lighting up the Seven Heavens Statue of Dihuazhou, he did not stay there for long, but continued on his way, because he had to participate in Liyue's invitation ceremony. Although the flying speed was very fast at this time, the process did not make Tianhe feel much pain, because Wendy thoughtfully opened a shield for him, ensuring that he would not feel the strong wind at high altitudes while ensuring oxygen (no way, no way, no one really thinks that the wind god does not do his job).
When Tianhe arrived above Wangshu Inn, Tianhe wanted Wendy to stop flying. After getting Wendy's consent, Wendy released the wind elemental power on Tianhe and sent Tianhe to a safe distance. Tianhe saw the right time and fell down in mid-air with Denglong Sword in a strange posture, but it did not cause any damage or movement. However, it was night now, and all this was noticed by a green girl in the dark. After observing for a while, she saw a familiar green figure waving in her direction, and then disappeared after a moment of stunned.
"Hello, sir. This is Wangshu Inn. I am the owner here. You can call me Huai'an. Sir, do you need to book a room here? We have rooms with different facilities." This is the owner Huai'an. He is also one of the spies of Tianquan Star. Although Tianhe doesn't know it, he knows that he is under the surveillance of Tianquan Star.
"That would be the best. By the way, please make me a portion of Yanxiao's special almond tofu. I want to take it to the top floor to taste it." Tianhe thought for a while and replied, "Okay, sir." Huai'an, who originally wanted to refuse, took back his words when he saw Tianhe took out a large sum of Mora. According to the information from Mond's spies, Tianhe may have an unusual relationship with the guardian Yaksha?
After Tianhe got the almond tofu, he came to the top floor of Wangshu Inn, and conjured a table and two chairs out of thin air. He placed Yanxiao's specially made almond tofu on the table, and then shouted to the empty place: "Xiao Shangxian, I am the traveler Tianhe, and I would like to invite you out for a chat."
Tianhe saw that Xiao had not come out yet, so he planned to ask Wendy to find Xiao. However, he did not expect that Xiao, or the green girl, would suddenly appear behind him, which scared him. Then he saw that she looked calm and didn't feel anything, so he said calmly, "What do you want from me?"
When Wendy followed on the other side, Xiao's face suddenly twitched. After all, she couldn't face this former savior. Wendy just laughed, walked quickly forward, ran to the side of Tianhe, and said, "Hey, Wendy, the greatest bard in the world, come and meet the Immortal Xiao." After that, she was about to salute, but Xiao was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and hurriedly stopped this ancient god of the same generation as her own Rock God. After all, she really couldn't accept the gift from the God of Wind.
"I want to let Immortal Xiao taste the offerings from the passing travelers, and also ask Immortal Xiao to come out and make friends." Xiao, who was originally planning to refuse, suddenly felt that in the short time since he came into contact with Tianhe, the karma in his body was quickly purified, and had been purified by one fifth. This made Xiao feel relieved, and he also wanted to have more contact with Tianhe.
So, she wanted to refuse, but after feeling that Tianhe had the power to purify Xiao's karma, Xiao was delighted by this kindness, so she changed her mind and said, "Okay, I will accept this offering. In Liyue, if you encounter difficulties in the wilderness, thieves on the road, water, fire, weapons, ghosts, gods, drugs and poisons, evil beasts and poisonous insects, enemies and evil people, please call my name. The Three-Eyed Five-Manifested Immortal - Xiao, will come to protect you when I call you."
"Well, thank you, Immortal Xiao." Wendy patted Xiao's arm. After Xiao enjoyed the offering given to her by the beautiful name, he was afraid that Wendy would salute him again, so he quickly escaped without giving her the chance.
So Tianhe planned to go back to the room he had just booked, and then return to the cave, intending to rest for a night before setting off again. Although his strength had improved, Tianhe did not want to change his human habits, so he still had to sleep.
As for what Tianhe will experience in Liyue the next day, please wait for the next chapter to find out~
