Teyvat: The road to becoming a god begins in the desert

"Hahaha--"

Under the bright sunshine.

The figures of Disiya and Rhodes jumped and danced freely among the green mountains and green waters, enjoying the exciting excitement and joy.

Chapter 88 Letter to Kusela

Playing is about playing, making trouble is about making trouble.

The bedridden Dina Zedei should still visit her.

As for gifts.

Although she hasn't gotten the costume yet, Desiya bought a lot of special items at the Grand Bazaar that are only available for the Flower Goddess Festival, from snacks to dolls.

As Dina Zedai's 'friend' who was personally certified in front of Shazaman.

Rhodes also prepared a gift.

A small wood carving.

Except for the lack of coloring, which makes the face look a little blurry, the rest are perfectly reproduced according to the temperament and image of the statues of gods on the Seven Heavens Statue.

As for whether this god is the Great Charming Tree King or the Little Lucky Grass King.

This is where the benevolent sees benevolence and the wise see wisdom.

Those who believe in the Great Merciful Tree King will call the gods on the Seven Heavens Statue the Great Merciful Tree King.

Those who believe in the Little Lucky Grass King will call that god the Little Lucky Grass King.

This statue was not carved by Rhodes himself.

But he bought it.

He doesn't have the ability to make such lifelike figurine products yet.

Dolly sells it.

She lived up to her reputation.

No matter what your request is, even if it is freshly made, she can get it for you.

Just like the wooden sculpture in Rhodes' hand.

Although the shape is exquisite and the materials are excellent, it can be regarded as a work of art, but it is clearly a new product, and it was obviously made after Rhodes placed the order.

Seeing the gifts brought by Disiya and Rhodes, the originally listless face of Dina Zedai on the hospital bed suddenly became much more energetic.

After playing with these gifts one by one, Dina Zedai couldn't put it down and stroked the wooden carving that looked like a small auspicious grass king.

"It's hard to buy Mr. Little Lucky Grass King's doll."

As she spoke, her expression suddenly became a little sad: "Little Lucky Grass King, she has never shown her face in front of others. No one knows what she looks like. As a result, no one dares to make her doll. Even if It’s the Flower God’s Birthday Festival, and no one in the Grand Bazaar is selling the Little Lucky Grass King’s dolls.”

"It's not just a doll."

Disiya curled her lips and said: "Anything related to the Little Lucky Grass King is difficult to buy."

"Yes."

Dina Zedai raised her head, with a smile on her pale face: "Thank you, I like these gifts very much."

"nice! You love it."

Rhodes and Disia replied in unison.

For a loyal admirer of Little Lucky Grass King, the figures of Little Lucky Grass King are naturally the most popular.

It would be nice if the details could be richer.

But that's not possible.

Because there are only a few rebellious guys who know the true face of Nasida. If they find out that a little Lucky Grass King doll with full details appears in Sumeru City.

Not to mention Rhodes, who provided the image, even a big businessman like Dolly who could influence everything had to go into exile abroad.

So there is no way.

Rhodes could only customize the doll according to the vague face on the Seven Heavens Statue.

Think of this.

Rhodes couldn't help but cursed secretly: "This damn profiteer."

That bastard Dolly, she really won't let go of any opportunity to steal money.

What about Inazuma's imported wood, the best doll craftsman in Xumi, and a lot of other things.

If Rhodes hadn't insisted on letting her color the wood carvings, she would have prepared some dye imported from Fontaine.

After a lot of repeated steps to add money.

The price of this small wooden sculpture, which is only the size of a palm, has jumped to a high price of 100,000 Morads.

She could obviously steal it, but she still wanted to give herself a wooden sculpture!

But Rhodes would not give her money.

Just one sentence and you're done.

Anyway, he now has a way to make money, and the money he can get from the breeding method of the new species of mushroom chicken is enough to offset the debt, but he just has to wait a year or two.

Dolly knew this too.

So she acquiesced to Rhodes's behavior of making an idle promise to her.

Or.

Dolly deliberately raised the price of wood carvings to such a high level.

After deceiving so many people, Rhodes was never deceived once, and he took advantage of him twice. I would always feel a little uncomfortable if I didn't deceive him once.

Finished giving gifts.

Disiya sat on the edge of the bed and told Dina Zedai some recent events in the Grand Bazaar.

Rhodes couldn't get a word in.

I simply walked around the yard alone.

Like Dolly, the Dinazedai family is also a well-known wealthy businessman in Xumiru.

Unlike Dolly, their family is engaged in serious business, and they also have a lot of cooperation with the Order.

Such a wealthy family.

The family's mansion is naturally beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Just like the small courtyard where Rhodes is staying now.

It is said to be a small courtyard, but it is not small at all.

In Sumeru City, where every inch of land is at a premium, it takes more than ten minutes to walk to Dina Zedai's private garden.

It is also in this courtyard.

Rhodes met someone he had been looking for recently but had never met.

Shazaman Humayi.

When this middle-aged man with a prim look saw Rhodes appearing in Dina Zedai's small garden, he looked confused at first, and then he remembered where he had seen Rhodes.

"Are you, Desiya's friend?"

Just like when the two met for the first time, Shazaman still had a hint of wariness in his eyes. Even though he knew that Rhodes was Disiya's friend, it still didn't make him look too good towards Rhodes.

This is actually quite understandable.

Who is Desiya?

Desert mercenary.

Then Rhodes, this guy dressed in desert folk clothing, might also be from the mercenary world.

Desert mercenaries have a bad reputation.

In particular, Shazaman had been robbed by desert mercenaries. If Kusela who was passing by had not saved his life, who knows what would have happened if he fell into the hands of those brutal mercenaries.

Therefore, Shazaman has never had a favorable impression of desert mercenaries, with the exception of Kusela and his daughter Disiya.

As long as you know these past events.

Naturally, you can understand why he has such a cold attitude towards Rhodes.

"Good morning, Mr. Shazaman."

Just like last time, Rhodes followed a standard greeting process.

only.

When Shazaman was about to go in to see Dina Zedai, Rhodes said quietly behind him: "Demon scale disease will only last four to five years at most."

"."

Shazaman stopped, his face twitched a few times, then turned back to look at Rhodes, frowned and said, "It was Disiya who told you."

"I also have a patient in my family who has magic scale disease."

Rhodes' words were concise and concise. In one sentence, Shazaman's interest was piqued.

"Is someone in your family suffering from magic scale disease?"

"how old is she?"

"What are the symptoms?"

"How is your physical condition?"

"How many meals can I eat per day?"

Shazaman didn't know how many times he had asked others this question, and he poured it all out as soon as he opened his mouth.

Rhodes answered one by one.

When he heard that Kelai, who was born with magic scale disease, could eat two bowls of rice and a full plate of vegetables at a meal, and could carry thirty or forty pounds of feed by himself, Shazaman's first reaction was disbelief. .

It is true that devil's disease becomes more severe with age.

But in general.

If you are born with magic scale disease, then by the time you are a teenager, your body will be as fragile as Dina Zede's. Not to mention able to withstand heavy objects, you will not even be able to walk when you get sick.

How come Ke Lai's symptoms are so mild?

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Disiya."

"You should know her temperament better than I do, and I won't lie to you."

Rhodes could tell at a glance what Shazaman was thinking, and immediately confidently asked him to go find Disiya to testify.

Just like Rod said.

Shazaman may not believe Rhodes, but he definitely believes in Disiya's words.

However, Shazaman did not go to Disiya to verify this matter. Instead, he pointed to the pavilion beside him and said, "Sit over there."

"it is good."

You know that as long as the topic of magic scale disease is discussed, this man who wears colored glasses towards the desert people will definitely listen to him patiently.

Rhodes always kept a smile on his face. After sitting down, he took the initiative to tell Kelai's situation without waiting for Shazaman to ask.

"Potion made from the remains of the devil"

When he heard that the root cause of Kelai's illness being so mild was here, Shazaman's eyes that were originally full of hope were once again filled with disappointment.

Demonic remnants.

Ordinary people may have never heard of this stuff.

But Shazaman is well aware of its dangers.

Even a normal person would be at risk of death if he came into contact with such a vicious thing, let alone someone with a body as frail as Dina Zedai.

And Rhodes said it too.
