I am in Genshin Impact, I can use the stick warrior talent

"Yes." Su Chen answered concisely.

Then, Gan Yu gently opened the door, poked her head out, and after confirming that no one was there, she quickly said, "If you have something to discuss, please come in quickly."

"Okay, let's go in." Paimon flew into the door eagerly, and Su Chen followed closely behind.

As soon as he entered the pavilion, Su Chen took a nap that was different from the daytime sleep. He turned to Gan Yu and asked with concern: "It's so late, why haven't you rested yet?"

Gan Yu was busy dealing with the documents on the desk. Without looking up, she just mechanically replied, "There are still many things to deal with. I can't rest."

Su Chen felt a surge of admiration in his heart, but he also noticed something unusual about Gan Yu. He knew her work attitude, but she seemed a little different tonight.

Gan Yu finally looked up at Su Chen, her eyes flashing with rainbow purple light: "You came so late, what's the matter?"

"I want to know the situation in the Layered Rock Abyss." Su Chen announced calmly.

Gan Yu stopped what she was doing and looked at Su Chen seriously: "Why are you suddenly interested in this?"

"From what I understand, Liyue has announced that something abnormal has occurred inside the Chasm and that it needs to be sealed off. I understand that nearby miners have been affected."

Gan Yu was silent for a moment, then said softly: "This is not something the General Affairs Department can easily intervene in."

Su Chen and Paimeng Xiang glanced at each other, puzzled. "Can't intervene?" Su Chen asked.

Ganyu sighed, her eyes looking somewhat helpless: "Yes, but as you said, we can't just turn a blind eye to this. I need to seek more help, not just the Seven Stars and the Thousand Rocks Army."

She sat down again and began to deal with the work at hand, but her eyes gave an instruction: "Su Chen, if you really want to know the truth, then please go to investigate the situation of the Layered Rock Abyss tomorrow. But if there is any sudden situation, you must come back immediately to inform me and take action on your own."

Su Chen expressed Gan Yu's concerns, and he nodded: "I understand."

When he was about to leave, Su Chen glanced at the busy Ganyu with deep respect. He took Paimon away from the Moon Sea Pavilion in his heart and set foot on the road to the huge abyss of the formation rock.

Su Chen watched Gan Yu lower her head and return to her busy work. He knew that the complexity of this matter was far beyond his expectations. He continued firmly: "Although I don't know much about the specific situation inside, I know very well that if the General Affairs Department does not take action, I am afraid that more people will suffer misfortune."

Gan Yu shook her head slightly, with a hint of weakness in her voice: "This matter is not something that our General Affairs Department can easily intervene in."

Su Chen and Paimeng looked at each other, with doubts evident in their expressions.

Ganyu added: "But as you said, we can't just sit there and watch. I need more help, not just the Seven Stars and the Thousand Rocks."

She stopped concentrating on her work and looked deeply at Su Chen. Her eyes flashed with a rainbow-purple light, showing a kind of determination: "In my own name, Su Chen, if you want to find out the truth, then go to the formation rock abyss tomorrow to investigate. If you encounter any emergencies, please be sure to return immediately to inform me and take action alone."

Su Chen could sense the worry in Gan Yu's words. He nodded solemnly: "I understand."

Just as Su Chen was about to finish his task, he saw Ganyu had sat down again to continue working. He found that Ganyu no longer discussed these issues, so he sighed softly, took a screenshot of Paimeng and followed him, and quietly left Yuehai Pavilion.

Walking out of the door, Ganyu's avatar looked at their departing backs and muttered to herself: "Solid rock does not sink, living towards death, darkness is extinguished, pitiful and lonely..."

Paimeng came to the station and asked in confusion: "Su Chen, why did you leave like this? There are still many questions we haven't answered."

Su Chen pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Paimeng, with a strong light in his eyes: "I rarely see Ganyu with such a resolute attitude. This situation is even stronger than the difficulties we have faced together before."

He paused, then continued, "Paimon, I think this incident might be unacceptable. Are you ready?"

Paimon replied confidently: "Of course, just like you said, I'm ready!"

Su Chen smiled slightly, then looked up at the sky, expecting the upcoming challenge.

In the early morning, Su Chen was already standing on the edge of Tianqiu Valley. He knew that it was almost impossible to enter the rock abyss directly from the ground, so he bypassed the patrol of the Qianyan Army, prepared some food, and began to climb the steep rock wall.

After some effort, Su Chen climbed to the top of the mountain in front of the abyss. However, the expression in front of him made him feel shocked.

Endless floating clouds covered the entire valley, like a thick layer of fog, obscuring all the scenery. Su Chen stood there, looking at Shengli from afar, only to see that the mountains under the sun were also covered by this layer of gloomy atmosphere, bringing a sense of dead silence and desolation.

In Su Chen's eyes, no bird dared to fly across this silent space. The rhythm of life seemed to be swallowed up by this bottomless abyss, leaving behind a dead silence.

Su Chen made a dull sound in his throat and hesitated about his plan to spread his wings of wind and jump into this unknown abyss.

"Su Chen... I'm starting to get scared. Shouldn't we..." Paimon's voice trembled. She clutched the corner of Su Chen's clothes tightly, as if she was worried that she would fall into endless darkness.

"Don't worry, Paimeng will be worried about everything... We will act according to the original plan." Su Chen tried to make his voice sound calm, although there was unspeakable fear in his heart.

Paimon responded softly. Although she was still nervous, she stuck close to Su Chen's back, ready to face the unknown challenge.

"Get ready, Paimon, we're going to fly down--" Su Chen plucked up his courage and made a move to jump down.

"No--!" Paimon's scream echoed in the air. She hugged Su Chen tightly and closed her eyes.

Darkness enveloped everything, and nothing could be seen. Su Chen only created the flow of air and the echo of his own heartbeat.

When their hearts finally approached the ground, Su Chen took a deep breath and thought: "Everything looks so dark, as if even the light cannot escape being swallowed by this abyss."

"Paimon, we have landed safely..." Su Chen comforted softly, trying to dispel the fear and anxiety around him.

In this absolute darkness, Su Chen and Paimon adapted to the surrounding environment and prepared to start their adventure. Although Su Chen was uneasy, he knew that only by bravely facing the unknown ahead could they uncover the secrets of the abyss.

"Paimon, are you okay? We are now in the depths of the abyss." Su Chen's voice became clear in the surrounding darkness.

Everything around him was swallowed by darkness, which was shocking and chilling. Su Chen felt his limbs and face begin to be covered by the cold, and the fear in his heart gradually grew.

"I'm still here..." Although Paimon's voice was weak, it brought a smile in the absolute darkness.

"Great." Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief and was about to ease the tense atmosphere when a deafening roar came from all directions, and the thunder of paint buckets rolled and hit their hearts directly.

“Roar——!!!” The sound was shocking.

Paimeng was so scared that he hugged Su Chen's neck tightly, not daring to move.

Su Chen thought to himself: "This is definitely the root cause of all this." In this crazy environment, a sense of determination gradually rose in his heart.

He moved his hands slowly, his palms gently caressing the rock wall, as if he was searching for a path in the dark.

"Su Chen, do you think we can really find a way out since it's so dark here and the mine is so deep?" Paimeng's voice was filled with uneasiness.

Suchen tried to remain optimistic: "Don't worry, Paimon. I have always been a lucky person. We will definitely find a way out."

They continued to move forward, but at this moment, Su Chen suddenly felt as if he stepped on something, making a crisp sound.

"Paimon..." Su Chen's voice was a little nervous.

"What's wrong, Su Chen?" Paimeng asked nervously.

"Catch me, catch me, quick!"

“Eh? What happened… Uwaaaaaaaaaaaa——!!!” Paimon’s scream suddenly rose along with Su Chen’s voice. Accompanied by the fear of the unknown, they fell together into an even more unbearable darkness.

Chapter 230 Picking up the Fairy Girl Ganyu

In front of the Adventurer's Guild in Liyue Harbor, Su Chen took the bag of raw stones from Catherine. He weighed it gently, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

He helped Ying earn these raw stones. Recently, Ying seemed to be extremely enthusiastic about drawing raw stones. She kept saying over and over again: "Draw again, I will definitely win this time!"

"How can you say that the luck of drawing a card is just a coincidence? This is a destined arrangement, not a coincidence..."

As Su Chen spoke, he looked at Catherine, and she also looked at him with a smile. Seeing Su Chen was always a pleasant thing for her. But suddenly, Catherine seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly called Su Chen who was about to leave.

"Wait a moment, traveler." Catherine's voice was a little anxious.

"What's the matter, Catherine?" Su Chen turned around, his face full of confusion.

Paimon followed closely behind, coming closer with curiosity, "Yeah, Katherine, what's going on?"

"I want to ask, you encountered many challenges during your journey in Mond, right?" Catherine's voice revealed concern.

Su Chen recalled the experiences during the journey and nodded. "Indeed, a lot of things happened during that journey."

"I guess you returned to Liyue because you missed the scenery of your past travels?" Catherine's voice was full of tenderness.

Su Chen nodded again, but a hint of doubt arose in his heart. He looked up at Catherine and saw that she was smiling.

"Catherine, what exactly do you want to say?" Su Chen's voice was filled with curiosity.

Catherine waved the commission in her hand and said, "Actually, I have a more difficult task here."

Her smile revealed confidence, "And this quest may help you fulfill your wish to revisit Liyue."

"Oh? What kind of mission is it?" Su Chen's eyebrows raised slightly, and his expression showed interest.

Catherine looked at Su Chen with admiration in her eyes. "I know you can handle this task. After all, you have grown into an extraordinary adventurer."

In front of the Adventurer's Guild in Liyue Harbor, Catherine whispered softly, handing Su Chen a commission and explaining the task: "This task is actually very simple, but it will be a little laborious."

"Here is a batch of grain to be transported to the western mining area. We need someone to deliver it to the foreman there, Lao Dai. But most of the people in the association are busy now, and no one can take this task. Since you happen to be there and the journey is long, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Liyue by the way. How about it, doesn't it sound like a good deal?"

"Old Dai? Mining area? Let me think about it..." Su Chen frowned, thinking carefully about the distance from Liyue to the mining area.

“Such a long journey...?” Su Chen’s face suddenly became a little heavy.

Paimon couldn't help but complain, "Catherine, you want us to walk such a long way - and we have to carry so much heavy food, it's so tiring!"

Su Chen nodded in agreement and was about to refuse the task when Catherine took out a small bag.

"Here are fifty raw stones as payment."

"Paimeng, Ying, let's go." Su Chen decided without hesitation.

They didn't need to exchange glances, Su Chen's steps were firm and decisive. Even facing a cart full of food, Su Chen's determination did not waver at all. He lifted the handle of the cart, although he had some doubts in his heart that it would be heavier than expected, but he believed that his physical strength was strong enough to cope with such a challenge.

"Fortunately, I didn't let Yingmei come alone. I'm afraid her small body can't push such a heavy cart." Su Chen thought of this and shook his head slightly, then used both hands to pull the cart forward.

But the burden of life is often heavier than the raw stone. Halfway through the journey, even Su Chen, who came from another world, felt that his waist could not bear it.

"Su Chen, you can do it, for our rough stone!" Ying cheered on the side.

"It's easier to talk than to stand and talk without back pain." Su Chen responded half-jokingly, mustered up a little courage, and pulled the cart again.

At this moment, a small moan sounded: "Ah...!"

"What's that sound?" Su Chen looked around, but there was no trace of a slime. He pondered for a moment, then cast his eyes on the cart.

Walking quickly to the side of the car, Su Chen carefully opened some bags of grain, only to see a small figure curled up in the pile of grain, letting out a faint groan.

In front of the Adventurer's Guild in Liyue Harbor, Su Chen and Paimong were surrounding a cart full of food and fodder. Paimong quickly landed on Su Chen's shoulder and said nervously: "Su Chen, did you hear that sound?"

"Well, I heard it... and I'm sure the source is nearby." There was a hint of curiosity and determination in Su Chen's voice.

He slowly drew out the Wind Eagle Sword with his right hand and approached the cart cautiously.

At this moment, the hay on the cart suddenly moved, and then a girl slowly sat up.

The girl's back is full of tenderness and mystery. Her hair is a strand of ice blue, hanging down to her waist, with a few strands of straw mixed in it, but it unexpectedly sets off her pure back line.

When Su Chen saw the dark red corners slightly exposed on both sides of the girl's head, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Gan...Rain?"

As Su Chen finished speaking, the girl's body trembled slightly. She slowly turned her head to reveal her face, then slowly stood up, showing her full appearance.

Ganyu's hair is a unique shade of ice blue, falling naturally in a ponytail at the back. A wisp of hair on top of her head and her black and red unicorn horns are extremely attractive. A shiny golden cowbell hangs on her standing collar, and her Eye of the Ice God is cleverly placed on a Chinese knot at her waist.

She was wearing a short white cheongsam with golden patterns on it, and a tight one-piece backless dress underneath. Black stockings tightly wrapped around her legs, with golden patterns on the sock hoops.

Her hands are covered with white sleeves with a unique cuff design, with the inner layer gradually turning blue and flaring outwards. Her gloves are also black, with the forearms decorated with gradient blue.

Su Chen looked at Ganyu in front of him, with shock and admiration intertwined in his eyes. "Ganyu, why are you here?" he asked curiously.

Ganyu shook her head gently, her voice soft and reserved: "I... just found a place to take a rest, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Paimon chuckled and flew to Ganyu's shoulder, "Ganyu, you are really elusive!"

Su Chen smiled, put down the Wind Eagle Sword in his hand, and helped Ganyu tidy up her long hair that was stained with hay.

"Ganyu, is it really you?" Paimon jumped off Su Chen's shoulder in surprise, staring at Ganyu's seemingly embarrassed appearance.

"Yes, Su Chen, Paimeng, and Yingmei, good afternoon everyone." Ganyu's voice was soft and clear, but her eyes seemed to be avoiding something.

Su Chen felt a little confused: "Ganyu, why are you here?"

Ganyu's brows slightly wrinkled, and her cheek slightly turned to the side, as if she was looking for the right words to answer. Su Chen keenly noticed the subtle expression in Ganyu's eyes.

Ganyu's heart is actually very simple, but it is difficult for her to directly give a reason like "I didn't choose a good position for my nap and fell asleep in the stroller."

So, she coughed twice and tried to change the subject: "I have to go back to Yuehai Pavilion. There is work waiting for me there. If I don't go back, the secretaries will be very busy."

"You are obviously trying to avoid the question!" Paimeng's outspokenness is always irrelevant to the situation. Su Chen gently pressed Paimeng with his hand, signaling her not to speak, and then shouted to Ganyu:

“Ganyu——”

Gan Yu stopped and turned around nervously: "Su Chen, is there anything else?"

Su Chen walked gently to Gan Yu's side and touched the ends of her hair with his fingers: "There is still some hay in your hair."

Su Chen picked up some hay with a gentle smile on his face: "You have to be careful and don't let these little things ruin your image."

"Well, thank you..." Gan Yu's voice sounded a little shy. She lowered her head, thanked him softly, and quickly left the scene.

Su Chen looked at Gan Yu's hurriedly leaving back, and a smile appeared in his heart. He knew that Gan Yu was not good at expressing herself, but he could also feel her kindness and embarrassment.
