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

It wasn't until she met Fang Xun today that she realized not everyone was distancing themselves from her or targeting her.

It turns out that there are people who are willing to smile at her and offer her warmth.

Under Fang Xun's encouraging gaze, Yura slowly picked up the bone whistle and tried to play it.

Woo woo woo...

The sound was like a ghost wailing, not unlike the first time Fang Xun used the bone whistle.

Qiqi, who was helping Hu Tao catch crystal butterflies, stopped what she was doing upon hearing the sound.

She tilted her head, her peach-colored eyes filled with confusion.

Where have I heard this voice before?

Is Taro-maru hungry?

Taro, who was dozing on the ground, suddenly shivered.

It stood up and looked around warily.

I always felt that some troublemakers wanted to harm it.

After confirming that Walnut and Qiqi were not nearby, it lay down on the ground again to doze off.

Yura was startled by the whistle she had made.

She had mentally prepared herself to be tone-deaf before playing, but she hadn't expected it to sound this bad.

If you didn't know better, you'd think it was a husky destroying the house.

Yura felt that the bone whistle in her hand was not the same instrument as Fang Xun's bone whistle.

Even though Fang Xun's playing produced such a beautiful tone, the sound she made was so off-putting that even a dog would find it unpleasant.

Seeing Yura's frustration, Fang Xun stepped forward and said, "This instrument is called a bone whistle, and it can simulate a variety of timbres."

"There is no sound that a bone whistle cannot make, only sounds you can't imagine. Besides being used as a musical instrument, bone whistles are often used in warfare to confuse the enemy."

"To use the bone whistle well, you must first adjust your breathing and finger movements."

"Let's take the simplest example of simulating a puppy's bark. See the sound hole at the bottom? Do it according to my idea."

At this moment, Yura displayed an exceptional talent for learning.

Fang Xun only explained many details once, but she was able to learn them immediately and apply them.

Woo woo woo...

Yura played the bone whistle again, and the tone was noticeably better than before.

At least, the sound is somewhat convincing now.

Taromaru stood up and cautiously looked around.

Who is swearing?

And they even used such foul language?

But Taro looked around and didn't see any of his kind.

There was a hint of confusion in the dog's eyes.

It's so weird.

Who's barking like a dog over there? Come out and fight me one-on-one!

Watching Taromaru bark wildly at thin air, even it couldn't understand the problem.

Yura believed Fang Xun's words; the bone whistle could simulate a variety of timbres.

As a result, Yura became increasingly interested in the bone whistle.

However, while she may have some interests, the bone whistle ultimately doesn't belong to her.

"Big brother, here's your bone whistle back."

Although Yura really liked the bone whistle, she knew she couldn't take other people's things for free.

Fang Xun only let her try it out; now that the trial period is over, of course it should be returned to its rightful owner.

Seeing Yura's reluctance, Fang Xun waved his hand: "You've already used this bone whistle, so it's useless to me. I'll give it to you."

What does it mean to say 'you've already used it, but I'm keeping it unused'?

Is it obvious that they dislike her?

Yura pouted angrily.

I will remember this grudge!

Strangely enough, Yura usually holds grudges quite a bit.

Remembering the hatred of the people of Mondstadt, remembering the hatred of the Lawrence family...

But when Yura remembered Fang Xun's grudge today, she had a different feeling.

Rather than holding a grudge, it's more like a joke between friends.

Does this mean I have friends now?

Yura blinked, remaining in a daze for a long time.

Chapter 328 Going Further and Further Down the Path of Disciples

The people of Mondstadt have always held a prejudice against Yola.

The fruit shop owner was unwilling to sell fruit to Youra, and the restaurant's orders for Youra were poorly prepared...

Whenever Yura appeared, everyone's faces coldly conveyed the words 'not welcome'.

Only Fang Xun would not treat Youla with prejudice.

He would smile at Yura and patiently teach her how to use the bone whistle...

Fang Xun's appearance made Yura suddenly feel that the world wasn't so cold and heartless after all.

At least, it still has a little bit of warmth.

"Big brother, I can't just take your bone whistle for nothing."

"In exchange, I will give you my weapons as collateral. Please note, it's collateral."

"When I have money, I'm going to redeem the weapons, and you're not allowed to sell them!"

Xiao Youla has her own principles and pride; she is unwilling to take Fang Xun's things for free.

Therefore, she chose to pawn her most valuable weapon to Fang Xun.

As she spoke, Yura stretched out her palm, and golden light gathered in her palm.

Once the light took shape, a greatsword stood upright in the ground.

Its blade is composed of two colors: gold foil and sky blue, inlaid with several jewels, and the top of the hilt is decorated with a pattern of musical strings.

At first glance, this greatsword appears to be the five-star weapon 'When the Pine Trees Resound'.

But if you look closely, you'll find that they're only very similar.

The blacksmith who forged this sword was of mediocre skill, and the sword blank he used was also quite ordinary.

The absence of any divine power within it made the greatsword appear somewhat dull and lackluster.

It's probably just a training sword for Yura, at most a three-star weapon.

Even a three-star greatsword would be more than enough to be used as collateral.

"I cannot accept your greatsword."

Fang Xun shook his head and did not agree to Youra's transaction request.

"Why? Don't let its age fool you, this sword is incredibly sharp and easy to use."

Yura thought Fang Xun thought the greatsword wasn't worth much and couldn't be used as collateral.

The little guy immediately picked up the greatsword to prove himself.

Despite her petite stature, Yura possesses strength far exceeding that of her peers.

That two-handed sword was taller than Yura, yet she could lift it effortlessly.

Such immense power at such a young age is perhaps only comparable to that of the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System.

Then, Yura used her swordsmanship to slice through one Hilichurl target after another.

Indeed, as she said, although the greatsword looked old, it still exuded a sharp edge.

The severed targets all had smooth, clean cuts.

This shows that the sword is fast and sharp, making it a good weapon.

"Big brother, I wasn't lying,"

"This greatsword can be used as collateral!"

Yura put down her greatsword, looked up at Fang Xun, and her eyes were full of confidence.

"I know your sword is excellent, but I cannot accept it."

"why?"

"I just took a look. This sword has a pitted and uneven surface. It must have been with you for quite some time. It must have a special meaning to you?"

Yura paused for a moment, then nodded.

Fang Xun guessed correctly; this sword had been with Yura ever since she could remember.

If she weren't truly unable to come up with the money, Yura wouldn't have been willing to use her greatsword as collateral.

This is why she kept emphasizing to Fang Xun that she would redeem the greatsword when she had money in the future, and that Fang Xun was not allowed to sell it.

"Since I'm right, then let this sword stay with you. It's not very useful for me to keep it."

"You can give me the money for the bone whistle when you have money in the future."

Fang Xun didn't actually intend to take Youla's money, but he knew very well that Youla had her own principles.
