"Red, yellow, blue, cyan, purple...Wow, the five-color team!" Xing exclaimed as he looked at these strange people.
"They are soldiers of the Fatui. Watch out!"
A few Fatui soldiers rushed over with their weapons in hand without even asking any questions, which made Xing unable to help but complain - is this some kind of wild monster that automatically triggers aggro and attracts as soon as it enters the field of vision?
Maybe because Xing, who was standing carelessly, was too conspicuous compared to the others, a Fatui soldier holding a musket immediately aimed at her.
Ying, who was repelling a Thunder Hammer with a sword, immediately shouted, "Be careful!"
The next second, the bullet came at her, but Xing didn't even move. She just tilted her head slightly and calmly dodged the burning bullet. She still stood there with her arms around her shoulders, not intending to attack - she felt that if she hit him with a stick again...
[The picture may not be easy to pass the review]
I didn't expect that there are guns in this world, and...
"Do these people also have the Eye of God? It turns out that the Eye of God is so common?"
"Wow! You just scared me... No, it's just that their equipment can use elemental power."
Paimon was obviously not considered a combat force, and like Xing, she was protected by the others behind her. She did not participate in the battle and simply acted as a commentator for Xing.
"I didn't expect these guys to be interested in meteorites. The Fatui really love to join in on any fun."
Volume 013: On the Journey: Ready to Post
The battle was over in just a few moves - with almost all of them possessing the Eye of God, the Fatui vanguard's resistance was completely meaningless. However, the girls did not use much force and simply beat them to their knees.
"Damn it... I didn't expect to meet such a tough guy..."
Xing suddenly felt puzzled. She looked at the Fatui soldiers, then at the girls, and pointed at the location of the head.
"Are you... not very smart? If I saw a girl dressed so beautifully and accompanied by a few exotic animal friends, and she dared to go out without any bodyguards, she would be obviously not an ordinary person, right?"
[That is, when you are in the underworld, don’t you know that you must not provoke the elderly, children, and especially women? ]
Several Fatui were speechless for a moment, and finally the musketeer said stubbornly: "Don't think that you are fearless just because you are the holders of the Eye of God. Our executive officer is also nearby, let's wait and see!"
In the end, several Fatui soldiers supported each other and fled in a panic, while Xing once again turned into a curious baby:
"What is an executive officer?"
"Well... you can understand that the leaders of the Fatui are said to be extremely powerful people."
Because the meteorites near Wangshu Inn have been dealt with, everyone decided to take a boat to Qingce Village. According to the Qianyan Army, many meteorites have fallen there as well, and they are at a loss because of the lack of adventurers who can clean up the meteorites.
Mona also needed more meteorite powder to help with accurate divination, so as to figure out the cause of the meteorite, so everyone took a small boat given by the Qianyan Army and went up the river.
On the boat, Ying demonstrated the magical effect of elemental power to everyone - she sat at the stern, stretched out her hand and created a cyan wind element vortex in her palm, then placed it on the water. Under the reaction force of the wind element, the boat suddenly accelerated and began to go upstream.
Although it has to stop and rest from time to time, the speed of a single wheel is almost comparable to that of a motorboat.
"I didn't expect that the wind element could be used in such a magical way. I'm a little envious..." Mona estimated the speed and said, "At this speed, we should be able to reach Qingce Village tonight."
"You are worthy of being the one consecrated by this princess. Under my guidance, continue to overcome all obstacles and move forward. But remember not to force yourself. This princess will grant you the protection of the Wings of the Night!"
"Miss, what you mean is, keep going, but don't tire yourself out."④
"Wow! Be careful, Guoba. If you fall in, we'll have to fish you out!"⑧
Xing, who had nothing to do, simply hugged the soft Paimon in his arms and looked at the few people curiously:
"Come to think of it, Fischl and Mona's clothes look quite different from Xiangling and the people at Wangshu Inn. Are you from the same place?"
"Fischl and Mona are from Mondstadt. Oh, no, Mona just came to Mondstadt..."⑦
Then, through Paimon's narration, Xing learned about the recent story of Mondstadt, a free city-state located in the northeast of Teyvat.
"...So, Ying defeated a dragon?"
As luck would have it, she recently defeated a dragon, too—or at least something that looked like a dragon.
"Well... I didn't defeat it. To be more precise, I purified the dragon's poisonous blood, anger, and confusion in its body."
Please purify mine, too.
However, the topic then went further and further, and Fischl said that the Wind Dragon was just a pet tied up in the garden of her palace, and even if there was no traveler, she would deal with it sooner or later.
Xiangling was thinking about how great it would be if the Wind Dragon could be made into dragon steak, completely forgetting that it was Mondstadt's guardian dragon.
When Mona learned that Xiangling was a chef, she began to ask if there were any recipes that were delicious, cheap and filling.
While the girls were chatting, the bar friends on both sides of the strait kept crying. The boat had passed through thousands of mountains. As night was about to fall, everyone finally arrived at Qingce Village.
This place has typical karst landforms. The steep mountain walls compassionately embrace the peaceful and safe villages, quietly guarding the elderly and children therein. The layers of terraced fields dotted among the mountains, making it look very suitable for retirement living.
Xiangling was very familiar with this place because she often came to the mountains here to search for all kinds of delicacies. Considering that it was getting late and everyone was a little tired, they could only go to the village chief to borrow a house to rest for the night.
Qingce Manor was naturally very welcoming to the arrival of adventurers who could clean up meteorites, but because it was just a small village with no tourist attractions to speak of, and with the Qianyan Army's request to stay overnight, they could only vacate four rooms for everyone.
In other words, two people have to sleep together.
[This is a godsend! You can post anything! 】
Xing's eyes suddenly became sharp - she was a baby who had just lost her memory, and no one could bear to see her sleep alone.
So, whose sign should I turn over... ahem, no, who should I spend the night with?
Mona's figure is undoubtedly the best among everyone. If she sleeps, she probably won't wear that tights, right?
[Quack! Please let me help you take it off bit by bit! ]
Fischl is small and cute, and she's also a middle school girl. She should be very fun to tease. It's just that Oz, who is always with her, is a bit troublesome.
[Oz, don't ruin my good thing! ]
Xiangling has the feeling of a girl next door. With her personality, even if she clings a little too much, it will be regarded as a joke, right?
【I want to eat Xiangling’s ice cream! 】
Of course, the one Xing is most interested in is naturally Yingmei.
[In your mind, strange words such as "injection of wind element particles", "resonance of rock elements", and "super-sensitive electric sparks with a radius of two centimeters" ring out for some reason.]
Xing immediately expressed her wish without any hesitation: "I want to sleep with Ying."
【I want to tell you】
Ying was obviously confused by Xing's inexplicable affection and trust: "Huh? But... I still have Paimon here."
Mona nodded as well: "Yes, Xiangling also has Guoba, Fischl has Oz, and everyone has their companions, why don't Xing and I squeeze in?"
Although Mona is also great, Xing still shook her head: "Ying, it feels familiar and kind. I want to know more."
Ying looked a little troubled, and finally could only look at Paimon: "If Paimon has no objection, then it's fine with me."
"Well... I hope the bed is big enough." Paimon touched his head, "But compared to our usual sleeping in the wild, this shouldn't be a big deal."
So the decision was made happily. Xing held inexplicable expectations - although she didn't know what she was expecting. She happily entered the room with Ying, and then she was dumbfounded:
"Uh...why are there two beds?"
Volume 014: On the Journey: All Eyes Are on Me
After some inquiries, Xing learned that the village chief who was responsible for leading the way seemed to have classified Paimeng as a child, so he specially arranged the only twin room for Ying.
[I've been fooled. I might as well go find Mona. At least I can touch her stockings.]
In the end, Xing, who couldn't find an excuse, lay down on the bed angrily, motionless like a salted fish.
Ying looked at Xing with a smile and jokingly asked, "Xing, do you really want to sleep with me?"
[I miss you so much]
Xing nodded: "I want to hold Ying to sleep together, because... Ying likes it."
The overly straightforward remarks obviously made Ying a little flustered, and Paimon on the side couldn't hold back any more:
"How can you like someone so much that you want to sleep in each other's arms after just knowing each other for a short time? And...if it's because of the amnesia, shouldn't Xing be closer to Xiangling who found you?"
Xing nodded: "Xiangling likes it too, Fischl and Mona like it too, but I like Ying more because..."
Why? Think of an excuse quickly. You can't say you're after her body, right?
[Because Ying has the aura of a star]
good idea!
"From... the stars?"
Paimon listened to Xing's retelling and thought about it.
"Maybe it's because the traveler is from outside this world? But, Xing, how did you smell it?"
“I don’t smell it, I feel it.”
Xing shook his head and looked at Ying.
"So, why did Ying come to this world?"
Ying thought about it, looked at Xing who was looking at her curiously, and finally patted the side of her bed gently:
"Then...Xing, come here. I can tell you my story."
Great!
Xing rushed to Ying's side without hesitation and squeezed Paimon in.
"Wow! Don't push me in any further!"
"Can't Paimon fly? Can he sleep while flying?"
"How is this possible?"
"Isn't flying as natural as breathing for Paimon? If he can breathe while sleeping, he should be able to fly as well."
"This... this is different!"
Ying looked at Xing who was bickering with Paimon with some amusement, and lay down gently. But then she found that once she lay down, because of the height difference between them and the limited area of the bed, she felt like she was lying in Xing's arms.
But... it has come to this, and it would not be appropriate to let Xing go back to her bed. Ying could only hold Paimon between them with a slightly blushing face, and then turned her head to look at Xing who was looking expectant.
"Then... Xing, you have to promise me that when you remember your story, you will share it with me."
[Your story? You will board the Starry Sky Train, visit the Vientiane world in the universe, and join hands with all kinds of people...]
——Shut up! Don't ruin my good thing!
Xing nodded, "I will."
Ying looked at Xing who was speaking seriously, smiled gently, and began to tell her own story.
"Well... my story has to start a long time ago..."
----------------
The next day
After a good night's rest, the five members of the meteorite investigation team gathered at a pavilion in Qingce Village early in the morning.
The attentive Xiangling noticed that Xing and Ying didn't seem to have rested well, and hurriedly asked about the situation.
"Paimon always presses down my hair in the middle of the night..." Xing said with a yawn.
"Who told you not to go back after listening to the story?" Paimeng stamped his feet angrily, "I was woken up by the heat from both of your bodies."
"Aren't there two beds in your room? Why do you have to sleep together?" Mona asked in pure surprise.
"Because Ying and I are already in a mutually committed relationship."
Xing proudly put his arm around Ying's shoulders, but Paimeng immediately pointed out to him that they had only agreed to tell stories together.
The five of them immediately formed a team to clean up the meteorite fragments scattered around Qingce Manor. Mona Fischl and Xiangling were in one group, while Xing continued to follow Ying.
For some reason, the scattered meteorite fragments attracted the interest of some hill people. Fortunately, there were not many of them. By the afternoon, the debris around Qingce Village had been cleared and the sleeping people woke up.
These people all fell into almost the same dream while unconscious - they dreamed that they were climbing a towering snow-capped mountain and could not stop.
Mona found a place where the earth veins were relatively calm, and began to use the meteorite powder she had collected and hydrography to do divination. She then came to a conclusion that Xing could not understand at all - these meteorite fragments seemed to be fragments of someone's constellation.
"Constellation? What's that?"
[Maybe if it's your turn...it should be called...Star Soul?]
Still can't understand.
Fortunately, there are professionals here. The witch explained to everyone: "This is a professional term. We astrologers believe that the constellation is the fate of the holder of the Eye of God. It is reflected in the starry sky. The past, present and future, everything is revealed in it."
Xing frowned slightly as she listened. This time it wasn't because she didn't understand, but she simply felt that...
