Genshin Impact: Ningguang is still a pitiful little thing, I invested in her.

Upon hearing Fang Xun's words, Gan Yu nodded as if she understood but not quite.

To be honest, Gan Yu had never been to a teahouse to listen to storytelling before.

Because I'm always busy with work, I simply don't have time to drink tea or listen to audiobooks.

Fang Xun said that teahouses are a good place to understand human life, and Gan Yu naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Chapter 265 Prayers Under a Sky Full of Sea Lanterns

"Gentlemen, there are private seats inside, this way please."

When the teahouse staff saw the guests arrive, they immediately came forward to greet them warmly.

When the shop assistant saw that the customer was Gan Yu, he was visibly surprised.

"Lord Gan Yu...is there anything we at the teahouse can help you with?"

In the eyes of ordinary people, Gan Yu represents the will of the Liyue Seven Stars.

Her arrival must be related to work.

So when the female shop assistant saw Gan Yu, she subconsciously assumed that Gan Yu needed the teahouse's cooperation.

Seeing the shop assistant's nervousness, Gan Yu gently shook her head, "No, it's not like that..."

The shop assistant became even more nervous: "Not cooperating with the investigation? Could it be... that our teahouse has violated some regulations?!"

"Lord Ganyu, our teahouse has indeed recently fabricated a new story about Prince Yan,"

"The story may be slightly exaggerated, but it shouldn't violate any regulations, right?"

Seeing the shop assistant's tense expression, almost to the point of tears, Fang Xun explained, "Don't misunderstand, Gan Yu isn't here to do any work, but to listen to a story."

Upon hearing Fang Xun's reply, the shop assistant was slightly taken aback.

Is Lord Gan Yu here at the teahouse to listen to storytelling?

This is something I've never heard of before.

It's important to know that Gan Yu is the First Secretary of Liyue Harbor, a position of extreme prestige.

No one dared to imagine that one day Gan Yu would come to listen to the story.

This is an honor for the teahouse.

"Okay, okay, please come in, I'll go and prepare some tea and snacks for you right away."

The staff led Gan Yu and Fang Xun to a private room, and then hurriedly went to prepare tea.

After all, given Gan Yu's status, she dared not be negligent.

Upon learning of Gan Yu's arrival, Tian Tiezui spoke earnestly to the shop assistant, "Look at how flustered you are, can't you calm down a bit?"

"Lord Gan Yu is indeed of noble status, but how can our teahouse be ordinary?"

"Perhaps, even Prince Yan has come here to listen to storytelling before!"

"Stay calm, stay calm! I've seen all kinds of storms."

The shop assistant scratched his head, feeling that what Tian Tiezui said was not very reliable.

How could Lord Yan be interested in things like listening to storytelling and drinking tea, like us mere mortals?

Besides, with so many important matters to attend to, how could Prince Yan possibly have time to come to the teahouse to listen to storytelling?

However, Tian Tiezui is the teahouse owner, so whatever he says goes.

To be fair, Boss Tian certainly has magnanimity and courage.

Even after learning that Lord Gan Yu was coming to the teahouse, he remained calm and composed.

As he said, he has seen all kinds of storms and waves, and his heart is very calm.

But...why did Mr. Tian's legs seem a little weak when he went on stage?

...

Holding a fan and a ruler, Tian Tiezui slowly walked to the high platform.

With a loud thud as the ruler was slammed on the table, the once noisy teahouse fell completely silent.

Everyone knows that this is Tian Tiezui's story.

Tian Tiezui cleared his throat and said seriously, "Speaking of which, the Vortex Demon God has a final follower named Ba Che."

"Whenever the Ba Che appears, a storm rages, lightning flashes and thunder roars, and the entire sea surface shimmers with an eerie light."

"It stirs up storms on the sea, trying to control the ocean and swallow all the ships."

Tian Tiezui also keeps up with current events when composing stories, incorporating recent events into his book.

"At the critical moment, a young man from a foreign land appeared just in time, single-handedly fighting against the enemy."

"Legend has it that when the young man unleashed his sword, the heavens and earth fell silent and shrouded in darkness."

"That single strike cleaved the sea in two, splitting Ba Che in two..."

When Tian Tiezui finished telling his story, applause and cheers erupted throughout the teahouse, lasting for a long time.

This was the first time Gan Yu had experienced such a lively atmosphere.

Is this what everyone's daily life is like?

She seems to have gained a greater understanding of human society.

After leaving the teahouse, Fang Xun continued to take Gan Yu to stroll through the night market.

They saw a large group of people gathered in the square releasing sea lanterns.

"Gan Yu, let's go release some sea lanterns too."

"This is also a way to understand human life."

Before Gan Yu could speak, Fang Xun took Gan Yu's hand and walked over.

At first, everyone was nervous when Gan Yu arrived, thinking that she was there to end the event.

But after learning that Gan Yu was also out shopping, the people warmly welcomed her.

"Would you like to release the sea lanterns together, Lord Ganyu? That would be wonderful!"

"What kind of sea lanterns does Lord Ganyu like? We can help give suggestions."

Hearing the words of concern from the people,

This time, Gan Yu truly felt herself integrated into human society.

Of course, Gan Yu knew very well that...

If she were alone, it would be impossible for her to integrate into human society.

This was all thanks to Fang Xun's willingness to accompany her to the night market and to help her interact with people.

For people with social anxiety, having someone to communicate with is actually a very happy thing.

True Lord Liuyun once said that Gan Yu's cultivation had encountered a bottleneck, and asked her to go down the mountain to find a way to break through.

At the time, Gan Yu didn't understand how to break through the bottleneck, but now she seems to have found a way.

It turns out that Fang Xun was the key to helping her break through.

As long as she stays with Fang Xun, she can make up for her shortcomings.

Soon, Fang Xun and Gan Yu lit the sea lanterns together.

As the lanterns rose high into the sky, the square was filled with laughter and joy.

Under the sea of ​​lanterns, Gan Yu clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and prayed with a devout expression.

Fang Xun asked with a smile, "What are you thinking about?"

Gan Yu looked at Fang Xun, her eyes clear and bright: "I hope, I hope we can always be together."

It's truly remarkable that Gan Yu, such a shy and introverted person, mustered the courage to say these words.

Fang Xun nodded: "I also hope we can stay together forever."

He closed his eyes and, like Gan Yu, began to pray.

"Ding! Gan Yu's favorability rating has increased from level 5 to level 6. Congratulations, host, you have obtained an Entangled Bond."

"Also obtain the item 'Key to the Shrine of the Archaeologists of Mondstadt'."

Just then, the system's voice rang in Fang Xun's mind.

Chapter 266 So you're called Hu Tao? Bullying my Qi Qi?

After spending a long time together, Gan Yu's favorability towards her increased again.

This also means unlocking more voices and actions.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xun focused his attention on the extra item, the 'Key to the Earth Spirit Shrine'.

In the game, each kingdom has a building called the 'Shrine of the Earth Spirit', which contains treasure chests.

Simply opening the Earth Spirit Shrine chest will grant you a series of growth materials, as well as a fixed amount of forty Primogems.

For players, 40 Primogems is still a pretty good deal.

To open the treasure chest in the Earth Spirit Shrine, you must first possess the Earth Spirit Shrine Key.

Looking at the Mondstadt Shrine of the Necropolis Key in his backpack, Fang Xun made a decision.

I'll open the Geoculus Shrine chests when I visit Mondstadt sometime later.

Regaining his composure, Fang Xun exited the system interface and returned to his residence with Gan Yu.

I've been away for so long, I wonder if the little ones have been behaving well at home, or if they've been causing any trouble.

Fang Xun wanted to go home as soon as possible, otherwise he was afraid the little ones would cause a huge commotion and tear the house apart.

Gan Yu followed closely behind Fang Xun, and the two walked side by side.
