Seeker of Teyvat

The wind arrow transformed by the Wind Eagle accurately hit the Rock Helmet King. The majestic wind element was stained with the water element in the shallow water, turning into a blue storm that swept across the entire venue.

Paimon could only grab the hem of Ying's clothes with difficulty, as if he would be blown away in the next second.

Looking at Paimon's terrified eyes, Wang Daoyi almost couldn't help laughing out loud. He stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers. A layer of light golden rock element shield enveloped Paimon and Ying, isolating them from the impact of the storm.

After three full minutes, the sweeping storm finally stopped. Everyone looked towards the center of the venue. The huge Hill Rock Helmet King had fallen to the ground. Beside it, the Wind Eagle stood up with difficulty. Green elemental power was emanating from the huge eagle's beak. That was the most original power of the Wind Eagle, the elemental core power bestowed upon it by King Daoyi.

Even this kind of power began to dissipate, so it can be imagined that Feng Ying used all his strength in this attack.

Xiao fell from mid-air and nodded with great satisfaction: "Very good. Although its use of strength is crude, it dares to fight hard. It is qualified to follow me to clean up the resentment of the demon god."

After giving his affirmation to the Wind Eagle, Xiao looked at the huge corpse of the Rock Helmet King.

"How dare a mere evil spirit be so presumptuous."

He Pu Yuan turned into green light and nailed a wisp of black air that was sneaking towards Feng Ying to the ground.

"Hiss, hiss, hehe, hahahahaha, Yaksha, Yaksha, Yaksha who is plagued by bad karma, I curse you, there will be a day, one day, you will become one of us!!!"

The black energy struggled and twisted, turning into a strange and evil afterimage, roaring madly at Xiao.

"Noisy!"

Xiao snorted disdainfully, and the green light on the Hepu Kite became brighter, like a green divine fire, burning the distorted afterimage clean.

Chapter 202: Rock Ode to Struggle, Wait Two More Years

Seeing the ferocious black afterimage, Paimon was a little scared and shrank behind Wang Daoyi.

"Dao Yi, what is this? It looks so scary."

Wang Daoyi looked calm and looked at Mandrill with a touch of concern in his eyes: "That is the enemy Mandrill faces, the Demon God's Resentment."

During the Demon God War, countless demon gods died on this land. Their bodies were torn apart and their souls were scattered, but their resentment has not dissipated after thousands of years.

"Is this what Mandrill fights with every day?"

Unlike ordinary monsters, the evil and twisted look of the demon's resentment just now really scared Paimon, and even Ying was a little uncomfortable with it.

"Ha, this is just the most common resentment of the demon god. It's garbage that can't even be condensed into a complete form. Mandrill can solve it with just one shot. This kind of thing can let out the wail of a loser before it dies."

Wang Daoyi smiled disdainfully, and then continued: "Mandrill is a yaksha, the great sage who conquers demons! The real threat to mandrill is the kind of existence that can condense the projection of the devil after thousands of years of wear and tear. That kind of thing is not good. Deal with it.”

"It's not that difficult. It's just a matter of working hard. Besides, if this kind of existence appears, other immortals will help me."

Mandrill on one side took back Puyuan, heard Wang Daoyi's words, and answered them casually.

Regarding Wang Daoyi, he was not as indifferent as he was to outsiders.

"Oh, fight hard. How long can you fight now?" In Wang Daoyi's eyes, golden gnosis flowed, and he saw the terrifying karma behind Mandrill.

These karmic obstacles are like the raging waves of the angry sea, extremely fierce and endless, and they are like the chains that bind the immortals, binding the mandrill to death.

Mandrill was indifferent, paused, and replied: "Keep fighting!"

Listening to the conversation between the two, Ying didn't know what to say for a while.

After a long silence, he finally said, "Isn't it true that even Zhongli can't solve Mandrill's problems?"

Wang Daoyi shook his head and said nothing more.

If Morax can solve the problem of karma, then the Yaksha clan will not be left with only Mandrill, the Yaksha general.

Wang Dao's golden gnosis flashed slightly, thinking of Barbatos.

That guy once used the sound of a flute to save a mandrill who was possessed by evil spirits. He must have the authority regarding souls and purification. I really want to study it.

In the hazy moment, Wang Daoyi seemed to hear a laugh of "Hey, hey" coming from his ears.

The golden gnosis dissipated immediately, and Wang Daoyi broke out in a cold sweat. He actually wanted to peek at Barbatos' authority just now. To restrain his emotions, Wang Daoyi secretly saluted in the direction of Mond.

Mandrill saw Wang Daoyi's movements, and there was some thought in his eyes, but he didn't ask any more questions.

"It's almost time. Let's go back to Wangshu Inn first. Yan Xiao should have prepared the food."

……

Had a silent lunch with Mandrill.

After the meal, Paimon and Ying whispered for a while, and then told Wang Daoyi: "Daoyi, if you have anything to do, go back first. Paimon and I are going to stay here for one more day."

"Huh? Why." Wang Daoyi was a little curious.

"Hehe!" Paimon looked excited, "Ying and I just discussed that since Mandrill can't go to Liyue Port to celebrate the Hailantern Festival, then we will move the Hailantern Festival here!"

"Huh?" Wang Daoyi became even more curious, "What are you going to do?"

Naturally, he would not think that Ying and Paimon were capable of transferring Liyue Port, so they must have come up with some trick idea.

"Hey, we think that the Hai Lantern Festival is about everyone dressing up, eating together, and watching Xiao Lanterns together, so Ying and I are going to dress up Wangshu Inn, and then cook a meal for Mandrill. Make some sky lanterns.”

Paimon raised her head proudly, revealing her small chin. It was obvious that she had credit for this plan.

Wang Daoyi burst out laughing. Only Ying and Paimeng could come up with such a naive idea.

But there is no denying that maybe this seemingly innocent and idiotic thing can really open Mandrill's heart!

"Okay, I'll be leaving first. Do you need me to pick you up later?"

Wang Dao clapped his hands and opened a ground channel.

Ying shook his head: "No need, Wangshu Inn has an anchor point, I can just go back when the time comes."

Wang Dao nodded and walked directly into the earth channel. Then the channel closed, leaving Ying and Paimon behind.

……

Back in Liyue Port, Wang Daoyi found that he suddenly seemed to have nothing to do.

Let's go to Xiaoshi. Almost all of the Shibo statues were sold yesterday, and there are still a few left that need to be given away. Ningguang, Uncle Tian, ​​and other friends all want to give away some.

Go help Xiang Ling. With Guo Ba here, he can't seem to do anything, and it also affects Xiang Ling's performance.

The other friends seemed to have something to do, and Xingqiu Chongyun also went home and didn't know what they were doing. It was probably related to the immortal.

As for Keqing, I don’t know where to go after meeting her last time.

"How about going to Yunhan Club to listen to a play?"

As soon as Wang Dao was thinking about it, he heard waves of cheers coming from the pier.

When I went out curiously, I thought, hey, don't go to Yunhan Club either. I saw Xin Yan setting up a stage at the pier and singing, and the most excited audience in the audience was none other than Yun Jin.

These two, one is the most traditional opera performer in Liyue, and the other is the most open rock creator in Liyue. According to the general story, they should be rivals, but the reality is that many people can't believe it. , the two became good friends who talked about everything.

Originally, Xin Yan thought that Yun Jin, as the heir to the Yunhan Club and the leading opera troupe of the Heyu Tea House, would like music, chess, calligraphy, painting, flowers, birds, fish and insects.

Suddenly, for a period of time, Xin Yan discovered that this person actually appeared at her concerts every now and then. Later, Xin Yan learned that Yun Jin was a very open-minded opera singer. Not only did she have no "preconceptions" about rock music, , but I like it very much.

At that time, Xin Yan realized that the other party did not have a "prejudice" against her, but that she had misunderstood the other person's interests and hobbies because of the "prejudice".

As a result, the two most extreme music artists in Liyue naturally became good friends.

Liyue is an ancient country. This antiquity makes most people here like soothing and gentle music. However, Xinyan’s music is too loud for most people in Liyue, until Xinyan found his own performance venue - Liyue’s Workers’ Wharf.

Most of the people here are laborers and sailors. After a hard day's work, most of them want to vent their suppressed emotions. At this time, opera cannot fulfill their requirements, but Xin Yan's hot rock music can, and they will follow Xin Yan's rock and roll jumps, shouting to Xin Yan's rhythm.

Until the end of the song, the performer and the listener were breathing heavily together, venting their depressed emotions and feeling relaxed.

Seeing that Xin Yan's performance was very successful, Wang Daoyi did not interrupt and just listened quietly.

Unlike most people who vent their emotions in rock music, Wang Daoyi intuitively felt the spirit of resistance in Xin Yan's songs.

This kind of resistance is silent, silent, persistent, and unobtrusive.

But it is there, waiting for you to feel it. It will tell you to persist, to work hard, to strive, and not to be defeated by other people's prejudices against you.

Resistance and Prejudice

This is the meaning that Wang Daoyi heard in Xin Yan’s rock music.

Xin Yan sang one song after another, and the atmosphere at the scene surged one after another.

It was not until the sky gradually darkened that the manager of the General Affairs Department at the dock came to inform that the reported performance time had expired.

Despite everyone's lingering requests, Xin Yan still chose to end the performance.

The rebellious spirit she expressed is a resistance to others' denial, to others' prejudices, and to bad things.

Instead of rebelling against the contract, the rules, or the organization.

Wang Daoyi approached the two girls only after the crowd gradually dispersed.

"Very good, Xin Yan, your performance is really good." Wang Daoyi praised.

"Hey, it's Daoyi, you're too kind." A smile appeared on Xin Yan's dark face. It was obvious that her performance was recognized, which made her feel happy.

Wang Daoyi shook his head seriously: "I'm not flattering you. The rebellious spirit in your songs is just like the heroic stories I read in Mondstadt. They are both worth singing about."

"Mond's heroic story? Oh, Daoyi, you mean the legend of Vanessa, haha, I also like this story of resistance very much." What Wang Daoyi did not expect was that Xin Yan actually knew the story of the legend of Vanessa.

He nodded immediately with recognition in his eyes: "Yes, whether it is the story of Vanessa Legend or your rock, I can feel the power of resistance, which shows that your rock, like Vanessa Legend, is an excellent work and deserves to be sung."

Xin Yan was so moved that she covered her face. Ahem, maybe she was just shy.

She had never been praised so highly.

Yun Jin beside him smiled and said, "Daoyi, you really know how to praise people. No wonder you managed to trick Xiangling into getting her."

"Haha, Xiangling and I are attracted to each other. Besides, I was not praising you just now. I was telling the truth." Wang Daoyi waved his hand nonchalantly.

"Okay, okay, stop praising me. Xin Yan is almost too scared to speak." Yun Jin quickly changed the subject. "Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. Do you have any plans?"

Wang Daoyi shook his head: "I don't know yet. Anyway, I will listen to Xiangling. She can do whatever she wants."

Yun Jin nodded, understanding. Another henpecked husband.

"Got it. I'll go find Xiangling and make an appointment. Let's go to the pier under Feiyunpo to watch the sky lanterns tomorrow."

"Of course I have no problem with that. The more people there are, the more lively it is."

……

That night,

Xiangling finally finished her last day in Xiaoshi. Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, and she can have a good rest.

Wang Daoyi helped move a large pile of kitchen utensils from Xiao City back to Wanmin Hall.

"How are we going to spend tomorrow?" Wang Daoyi reached out and wiped the sweat from Xiangling's forehead.

Xiangling blushed and also reached out to smooth out the wrinkles on Wang Daoyi's clothes that were left by the moving of goods.

"Yun Jin and the others came to me just now and said that we would watch the sky lanterns together tomorrow night."

"That's great. We can make a wish under the sky lantern then."

"What wish does Brother Daoyi want to make?"

"Haha, whatever wish you want to make, that's what I want to make."

"Oh, Brother Daoyi, you are bad!"

Xiangling's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment. She punched Wang Daoyi weakly with her little fist and ran into the back hall.

Wang Daoyi: ???

Confused by the shy Xiangling, Wang Daoyi sorted out the things in Wanmin Hall, said goodbye to Guoba, and left.

……

The next morning, Wang Daoyi appeared at Wanmin Hall on time. Master Mao had already hung up ribbons and raised the fish lanterns.

Not only Wanmin Hall, but the entire Chihu Rock and even the entire Liyue were shrouded in colors. The festive atmosphere that had been brewing for several days reached its peak on this day.

"Daoyi is here. Have you eaten yet? If not, go to the kitchen and eat something first, then come and help me put up a couplet. This thing is really hard for me to do by myself, and Guoba can't help."

Master Mao pointed to the couplet on the table.

"Haha, then leave it there, I'll come later."

"You come, that's fine too. Remember, this [Harmony between heaven and earth brings wealth to the family] is the first couplet, [Peace and happiness bring happiness to the people] is the second couplet, and don't stick this [Peace in all seasons] crookedly."

Master Mao gave a few more instructions.
