Reading poems from Teyvat

……

After Shen Zhigui went to the Knights of Favonius and described the events in detail, Qin looked at this young man with a headache. Every time he appeared in front of her, he would give her problems to some extent. After pondering for a moment, she said, "I know that Your Excellency Shen Zhigui did nothing wrong in this matter, but the matter involves Dongdong and the Fatui. With the death of a sixth-seated executive officer, they will definitely not let it go. Although Mondstadt is now protected by the Dragon of the East Wind, the Fatui can still be dealt with. I will do my best to help Your Excellency mediate, but if things develop to the last step, I am afraid..."

He will still be caught and held accountable by the Fatui.

Thinking of what the young man had done in the past, Qin could not do the current practice of detaining him in the Knights of Favonius and finally handing him over to the diplomats of Winter Solstice under diplomatic pressure to be judged by Winter Solstice. Although the acting leader of the Knights of Favonius had received an education that allowed her to become a qualified superior, she herself was definitely not the kind of person who would prioritize political gains and losses in everything. So even though the best way at the moment was to detain Shen Zhigui, Qin thought for a long time before saying, "If you have nothing to do, you'd better leave Mondstadt as soon as possible and go to Liyue to seek help from Yuheng Star."

In her opinion, Shen Zhigui and Keqing had already had conflicts with the lady at that time, and looking at the young and energetic look of Yuhengxing, she was afraid that this matter would not end so easily. Now Shen Zhigui had a conflict with the Fatui again, so if he went to Liyue, wouldn’t it be a good opportunity to resolve the new and old grudges?

Anyway, Liyue has enough capital to fight against Zhidong.

Maybe by that time the two sides will be in a mess, and Zhidong will be too lazy to find excuses to target Mond and further oppress Mond.

Qin thought with a slightly humorous tone.

Shen Zhigui just looked at Qin with a little surprise, then looked at Eula, and finally looked at the so-called cavalry captain Kaia who was standing next to Qin.

Seeing him like this, Kaiya smiled and said, "Why, Master Shen Zhigui is not satisfied with Captain Qin's answer? Do you want us to hold the Fatui responsible for kidnapping you?"

"It's not a bad idea."

Shen Zhigui said.

"But the Knights of Favonius are limited in manpower right now, and I'm afraid we can't spare any extra manpower to help you," Kaia said. He then turned his exposed eye and looked at Ying who was also standing aside, and said, "However, it would be great if the Honor Knight could lend a hand."

"Kaia."

Jean sighed, trying to stop Kaia from fanning the flames.

But Kaiya continued at this time: "I heard that recently, Mr. Shen Zhigui has been performing with Ms. Wendy at Angel's Gift, which has attracted a lot of business for the tavern. Seeing that the ace duo in his tavern was kidnapped and even in danger of their lives, the young master of Mond Winery should not stand idly by, right?"

Qin turned her head and looked at Kaia.

Kaia still looked the same, with a smile on his face. On the contrary, Lisa, who was standing aside, realized that the young man in front of her was definitely not an ordinary person after hearing that Shen Zhigui could deal with the sixth seat of the Fatui. Qin just misjudged his strength. In fact, if this young man stood on their side, things might not be so difficult.

Chapter 14: Sitting and Feeling the Eternal Meaning (Part 2)

In fact, not only Qin, but also Youla and even Barbara have always kept the impression of Shen Zhigui at the time when they first met. Although Barbara's impression of him may be just a talented but nonsense and slightly weak bard, in the eyes of Qin and Youla, the young man in their impression can be said to be a rare warrior in the world. For warriors of this level, if they want to make further progress, they have to pay more arduous training than before, so they often waste years at the same level -

Although Shen Zhigui was an amazing talent who had reached such a realm at the age of only sixteen or seventeen, it was unlikely that he could take his strength to a higher level in less than half a year, right?

So they are used to looking at teenagers with that original impression.

I feel that this young man is still just a warrior who can be compared with immortals for a short period of time but is ultimately not as good as immortals.

Therefore, both Jyn and Eula felt that Shen Zhigui was able to defeat the Sixth Seat of the Fatui, perhaps mostly by taking advantage of others, just like how he had used some unknown means to remove the poisonous blood from Tevarin's body. However, for a large organization like the Fatui with an unusually large number of high-end combat forces, such a trick would obviously not last long. And because of his good relationship with the Seven Stars and the Immortals of Liyue in the beginning, Jyn and Eula did not dare to dig into the matter, and did not even think of winning him over. Out of friendship for him having cured Tevarin, they just wanted him to return to Liyue first.

On the contrary, people like Lisa and Kaia who don't have a close personal relationship with him can see it more clearly.

Although it's all just a fog.

But Kaeya is different from Qin, who takes everything on his own shoulders. Since he could see that Shen Zhigui killed the Sixth Seat of the Fatui, he understood that the young man was obviously determined to fight the Fatui to the death. In this situation, there was even a traveler involved. If he didn't win them over now, when would he do so?

If Shen Zhigui were really allowed to return to Liyue, wouldn't that put Mondstadt in an even more precarious situation?

Judging from Shen Zhigui's appearance, he obviously doesn't seem like someone who would swallow his anger at this moment.

Since they were about to face a storm, they might as well stop Shen Zhigui and the Traveler and let them make a big fuss. If these two people stood on their side, together with Tevarin, the Dragon of the East Wind, they might be able to fight against the Fatui in a short period of time. By then, maybe he could even bring over the immortals from Liyue and delay until Grand Commander Falgar led the expeditionary force back to Mondstadt. Then, everything would be back on track.

Although Shen Zhigui was not quite sure what Kaiya meant by the right track.

But he couldn't stay in Mond for that long.

The issue of the Fatui can be resolved if possible, but if it can't be resolved...

All he could do was tell his friends to be careful and stick together.

However, even if the Fatui really kidnapped them, they might not be able to find his whereabouts.

At present, his void observation in Mond has been almost completed. It all depends on how the Fatui will respond next.

However, when he heard what Kaeya said, he thought that although the young master of Mond Winery was indeed very powerful and his hatred for the Fatui was indeed deep-rooted, if he were to be involved in a dispute of this level, aren't you afraid that your sworn brother would die even faster?

Or is this the way big families fight for inheritance?

Shen Zhigui thought with some malice in his heart.

Although in reality, this pair of brothers shouldn't be so dirty.

But he still nodded and said, "Then I will take my leave first."

Qin glanced at Shen Zhigui, then turned to look at Kaia. Seeing that the two seemed to have reached some tacit understanding, but seemed to have said nothing, she couldn't help but feel a little worried. Shen Zhigui wanted to turn around and leave, but seeing her like this, she immediately said, "Captain Qin, don't worry. If things get to the point where they are irreversible, you can just hand me over. Besides, maybe your Wind God will show up again to save Mondstadt from the hands of the Fatui, just like he saved Mondstadt from the hands of the old nobles last time?"

When Eula heard him say that, she immediately glared at him.

After all, she is a descendant of the old aristocracy.

Shen Zhigui's words were undoubtedly poking at her old wounds.

Shen Zhigui just smiled indifferently.

Qin could only sigh when she heard him say that. She looked at the boy deeply, and she really didn't understand where the boy's confidence came from, and she really couldn't see through the boy's almost absurd behavior, but she really couldn't object, so she could only say: "I hope so."

"Speaking of which, if we say that Mondstadt in the past, before Tevarin, had to maintain the status quo because you had no basis for changing it, then any slight disturbance would give the Fatui an opportunity to intervene. But now, Captain Jyn, you don't have to be so timid. After all, even if there is a change, it may not be for the worse. But why do you still insist on maintaining the status quo as before?"

Shen Zhigui asked.

Qin was stunned for a moment.

"Is it because the current situation is difficult for you but you can still adapt to it to some extent, and if you make a change, it may get better, but you may mess it up?"

Shen Zhigui said this with a hint of sarcasm.

"Hey, Lord Shen Zhigui, are you planning to join our Knights of Favonius?"

Kaia said immediately.

What he said was obviously to say that this was an internal affair of their Knights of Favonius. If Shen Zhigui wanted to interfere in it, he had better join the Knights of Favonius first, otherwise he would not have the right to do so.

But Shen Zhigui suddenly changed the subject and said, "But I seem to have heard that there is an apprentice knight in Mondstadt who has obtained the Eye of God and whose combat power far exceeds that of ordinary Knights of Favonius, but he has never passed the assessment of the Knights' Order?"

"Noelle...her situation is a little complicated..."

Qin hesitated for a moment, and finally said.

"But no matter how complicated it is, is there a situation more complicated than the Traveler?"

"Hey! Flute player, what do you mean? The Traveler became an honorary knight of the Knights of Favonius with honor!"

Paimon immediately stood up for his friend.

Shen Zhigui had no intention of dwelling on this topic, so he just waved his hand quickly, then put his arm around Wendy's shoulders and prepared to go to the pub together.

The traveler looked left and right, and seeing a strange silence lingering in the office, he immediately followed the two boys to the tavern.

She still has some things to ask.

Chapter 15: Coming from the Desolate Smoke and Sunset (Part 1)

By the time they arrived at the pub, it was almost closing time.

However, Diluk did have some special feelings towards Shen Zhigui and Wendy, so even though all the customers in the tavern had already left and he was about to close the door to the guests, he still let these two people in. Although he also understood that no matter how hard they performed, no customers would come to the tavern at this time, it was still fun to watch the two strange teenagers talking drunkenly at this time -

Of course, Shen Zhigui never drinks.

And it's more fun if they can keep playing.

However, in situations where there are only a few listeners, they certainly won't be very interested in performing.

When Wendy arrived at the tavern, he habitually ordered a large bottle of dandelion wine. Shen Zhigui also ordered drinks and snacks. The two chatted about the topic of scattered soldiers, and then inevitably involved the Heart of God. At this time, Ying also joined the conversation: "What is the Heart of God?"

"You can think of it as an evolved version of the Eye of God."

"Evolved version?"

"It's similar to the Eye of God, but what you can do with the Heart of God is much more than the Eye of God."

Wendy said casually.

"So, the target of that scattered soldier is the God's Heart of Thunder of the Inazuma you mentioned?"

Ying asked.

Shen Zhigui nodded.

"What kind of person is that Thunder God?"

Shen Zhigui thought for a moment and said, "What you want to ask is, is she the god who blocked your way out of this world?"

Ying was stunned for a moment, but finally nodded.

Shen Zhigui immediately said, "Five hundred years ago was a strange time node. You should have heard before that the previous Thunder God Baal died in the catastrophe of Kanreya. After taking over, the current Thunder God tried to approach eternity and thus sealed himself in a pure land. So if you want to ask if she is that god, then I can only say that she is probably not."

"why?"

"She has no reason."

Shen Zhigui looked at her and immediately said, "If you still want to see her, I can give you a token. You can go to Inazuma Castle and find a place called the castle tower and give the token to those Okuji people."

But at this time, Lei Dianying's protest came from Meng Xiangyi's heart:

"I don't need to meet an unknown traveler!"

"Then it would be nice to let Zhen see it."

Shen Zhigui just said that.

"I disagree. What if she is an assassin with ulterior motives?"

"You are a little too much of a sister control ..."

Shen Zhigui just said that.

Who would assassinate a dead person who has been dead for hundreds of years?

"It's okay to meet her. Zhigui thinks so highly of this stranger. I guess it's not just because she's pretty, right?"

Lei Dianzhen's gentle voice came over.

Maybe he really just thinks she is pretty.

Shen Zhigui couldn't help but say in his heart.

But he just wanted to test the attitude of the "prince" through this person. Anyway, with Ying's communication ability, he would be able to see Lei Dian through Kamisato Ayaka or Yae Kamiko sooner or later. He was just trying to sell it in advance. But when he heard Lei Dianzhen say that, he couldn't find a suitable reason for a while, so he just communicated with the sisters through Meng Mengyi: "Don't you think that her thing is very strange?"

"what do you mean?"

Lei Dian really said.

"Her departure may be related to the disaster in Kanreya. At least the god who intercepted her and her blood relative who was vague in her words are all suspects. So through her, we may be able to learn the truth of the incident. At least if she continues to track down her blood relative, she will provide a lot of clues."

Lei Dianzhen was silent for a moment: "I don't really intend to delve into what happened back then."

"Then just assume that I'm very interested in that period of history."

"Well, since you said that, I'll just meet her. It's not a big deal anyway."

In reality, Ying fell silent after saying that, and didn't seem to be about to take out the token. She and Paimeng looked at each other in bewilderment. However, Shen Zhigui quickly came to his senses, patted the box on his waist, took out a jade amulet and handed it over.

This amulet is actually the token of her will that Yae Shinko gave him when she gave him the chance to enter the Pure Land of One Heart.

Now that he is handing this token over to Ying, it has a bit of black humor to it.

Seeing him do this, Lei Dianzhen immediately said, "Be careful, the Son of God will be angry if he sees you..."

Although Shen Zhigui thought that this was just "returning the property to its original owner", he also felt that this was not a good idea, so he said to Ying: "You only need to give this token to the owner of the castle tower, and it's best not to let others see it."

Ying took it carefully.

Then she asked, "So, if the Thunder God is like this, what about the Wind God and the Rock God?"

Shen Zhigui immediately turned his head to look at Wendy, then patted him on the shoulder: "This is what the Wind God is like."

Wendy just had a grin on her face.

Paimon immediately said, "You mean, the street singer looks like the Wind God? But the statue of the Wind God doesn't seem to look like that."

"Hey, the Wind God doesn't always look like that. The Rock King next door sometimes wanders around the world in the guise of a woman, right?"

Wendy just said.

“Oh, is that so?”

Paimon was quickly frightened by what he said.
