"No, I just seemed to see the two people you mentioned go into the tavern. Maybe I was drunk and my eyes were blurry." The companion opposite the short-haired adventurer shook his head and said with a confused look.
"Hehe, I didn't expect us to be so famous."
Several people walked into the tavern, which was equally lively. Paimon heard the people outside discussing them and spoke with a little excitement, clenching his fists.
"Oh, I remember it was the traveler and the adventurer who defeated the Wind Dragon. Why are you so excited?"
Wendy looked at her and said with a smile.
"What? Didn't they also mention the humanoid elves? Then they must be talking about me." Paimon folded his hands and raised his chin slightly with a smug look on his face.
Ying looked at Paimon and smiled gently, then walked towards the bar with her legs in over-the-knee boots. The hem of her white skirt swayed slightly, and her snow-white thighs underneath were also covered with a layer of light shadow.
In front of her, there was a red-haired young man who was lowering his head slightly and wiping the wine glass in his hand.
"Hey guys, would you like something to drink?"
The red-haired young man stopped what he was doing and asked the visitor calmly.
"Hello, we are here to see the boss here."
Ying replied politely.
"." Diluk was silent for a moment, then nodded, "What's the matter?"
"Hey, we have some private matters, so it's not convenient for you to know." Paimon flew up after spinning in the air and said with a smile.
"I'm the boss, you decide."
Diluk sighed and continued to wipe the cup.
"Uh." Paimon and Ying paused for a moment.
"No way, there are people who don't know Master Diluk. He is a well-known figure in Mondstadt."
Wendy said with a mock surprised smile.
"Look, traveler, he's laughing at us again. We've only been in Mondstadt for a few days. Isn't that normal?"
Paimon stomped his foot in the air angrily.
"I see. So that's you, the outsiders who fought off the Wind Dragon." The red-haired Diluk looked at the humanoid elf and the golden-haired girl. Two such conspicuous elements, after a little association, they matched up with the information he had obtained.
"Wow, Grandpa Diluk also knows us?!" Paimon said in surprise.
“I’ve heard a little bit about it.” Diluk didn’t deny it, and then asked calmly again, “Tell me, what do you want from me?”
His eyes swept over the unfamiliar visitors in front of him.
The strange elf, the blond traveler, the eccentric bard and Diluk saw Li Qiuzhi pause for a moment, and a look of surprise flashed across their faces.
A young adventurer whom I met once, he seemed to have also participated in the battle to repel the dragon. From the intelligence collected, he seemed to have practiced ordinary West Wind Archery to the extraordinary level of "secret".
It seems that we were a bit lazy in not conducting an in-depth investigation on him before. Why would such a genius appear in Mondstadt? The reason is very worth pondering. Diluk raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
Li Qiuzhi didn't know that he had returned to the sight of the Dark Night Hero. He approached the bar, took out the letter, handed it over and said:
"We are having some trouble solving the Wind Dragon incident and would like to ask for your help.
"…Captain Qin recommended you to us."
Li Qiuzhi was afraid that he didn't care, so he added another sentence.
"Oh?" Diluk took the letter and looked at the Knights' emblem on the red wax seal. He was a little surprised and said, "What's the big deal? The acting leader actually talked about me to you."
On the surface, he no longer has any connection with the Knights Templar, but he is still one of Mond's more important secret forces. Unless something is important and difficult to resolve, people usually come to him for help.
It didn't take long.
Diluk read the opened letter and understood what had happened and where specific help was needed.
"I see. Do you want to find the red crystals left by the Wind Demon Dragon, which are its tears?"
"Yeah, that's right!" Paimon nodded twice.
"It's just a small problem. Come back tomorrow night after the tavern closes. I will then provide you with the information you need."
A ball of fire suddenly ignited in Diluk's hand and burned the letter, and he said with a calm expression on his face.
"Ah!" Paimon was startled and shrank back naturally.
One day? Li Qiuzhi made a simple estimate in his mind. It felt that it was fast. After all, there was no Internet in Teyvat, and no matter how strong the ability to collect intelligence was, it still took time to communicate with each other.

"Really? Why did you suddenly do such a scary thing?" Paimon crossed his arms and glared at the red-haired young man with some dissatisfaction.
Diluk didn't answer. He took out a clean rag and wiped the table top that had some ashes on it.
"Hey, since Grandpa Diluk is so straightforward, let's wait for good news." Wendy, who was dressed in green, chuckled and said to the others, "Hey, everyone, I want to drink here for a while. Let's meet again tomorrow."
"No problem, we'll go first."
Li Qiuzhi nodded and left the tavern with Ying and Paimeng and walked outside.
As not much time had passed, the adventurers who had been discussing their adventures before coming in were still chatting, while Jack, who was sitting not far away, seemed to have drunk too much and was slumped on the table in a daze.
At one o'clock outside, there was a group of people drinking and clinking glasses. It was really a lively scene.
".Well, looking at them, I feel a little hungry too. It seems that everyone hasn't had dinner yet." Paimon said as he floated tiredly on the road, touching his stomach with his hand.
Ying raised her hands and stretched her waist. The dim street lights reflected on her armpits and chest, which squeezed each other to form a snow-white and soft wrinkle.
She parted her lips and yawned, then glanced at the young adventurer beside her and said with a smile:
"I treated you to lunch, so I'll leave the dinner to you."
Li Qiuzhi stroked his chin and thought for a while, then nodded and said:
"Well, that's not impossible. It's so late now, why don't you go to my house to eat? It's cheap and affordable to cook it yourself!
"Besides, my rental house and the hotel you rented are both on the same street. They are not too far apart and it is convenient to go back."
Paimeng floated in front of him, looked at him with a suspicious look and said, "What do you mean by cheap and affordable? You are not going to just stir-fry some vegetables and shredded pork to get rid of us, right? You know, we treated you to a big meal at noon!"
"Yeah, if it's too perfunctory, humph!"
Ying placed her hands on both sides of her waist wrapped in a backless white dress and looked over with a slightly raised corner of her mouth.
"Don't worry, although my cooking skills are average, I still know a lot of tricks. I've thought of putting together a perfect dish for you guys to entertain you!"
Li Qiuzhi patted his chest and assured.
"Hehe, that's what you said!" Paimeng looked surprised, as if he felt Li Qiuzhi's enthusiasm.
[Paimon has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 150 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.3 (90/300)]
Ying said with a smile on her fair face.
"Well, I'm looking forward to it too."
[Ying has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 100 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.4 (235/400)]
When they arrived at Luoluomei Street, Li Qiuzhi's home, Ying and Paimeng both showed surprise at this exquisite two-story building.
"I didn't realize you were so rich and lived in such a beautiful house!"
Paimon said, looking at him with his starry eyes wide open.
"Haha, it's the property of the Knights' guerrilla leader Eula. Because I'm familiar with her, she rented it to me at a low price." Li Qiuzhi gave a brief explanation and then led the two of them in.
Her high-heeled over-the-knee boots stepped on the ground in the yard. Ying asked with a puzzled look on her side: "Eula? The captain of the guerrilla team, I don't think I've seen her in the Knights?"
"Because he is on a mission outside, he will probably come back to rest soon." Li Qiuzhi walked into the living room thoughtfully and said speculatively.
"Wow, they can rent such a beautiful house to you at a low price. The guerrilla leader must be a very Mora person. Hehe, I really want to make friends with her."
Paimon rubbed his hands together, looking like a money-grubber.
Ying looked at her like this and walked away helplessly, holding her forehead with her hand, and sat down on the soft light blue sofa in the living room. Her soft buttocks pressed against the hem of her skirt and sank slightly into the sofa.
She placed the heel of her right foot on the ground, crossed her legs and stretched them out, then sank her back into the soft backrest.
"I can finally take a good rest." The blonde girl sighed slightly.
I feel that coming to Mondstadt is more tiring than wandering in the wild. Fortunately, I found the God of Wind successfully. I hope Wendy knows some clues about her brother.
Paimeng was curiously walking around this exquisite two-story building, while Li Qiuzhi was preparing dinner in the kitchen.
It didn't take long.
Dishes that looked good and should taste good were neatly placed on the table.
Paimon's mouth was already drooling, but she didn't wait to eat it herself. Instead, she looked at the light blue sofa and prepared to call her best friend.
"Traveler, eating uh, why did you fall asleep?"
Paimon scratched his hair and tilted his face with a puzzled expression.
On the sofa, Ying fell asleep leaning on the backrest, her chest rising and falling slightly, and her lips exhaling hot breath evenly.
"Are you too tired?"
Li Qiuzhi was about to sit down to eat and noticed Ying who had fallen asleep.
"That seems to be the case. Speaking of which, the Traveler hasn't gotten much sleep since arriving in Mondstadt. She's been running around all the time. We should not disturb her rest for now."
Paimeng stroked his chin, and then said to Li Qiuzhi in a caring tone:
"Well, it would be uncomfortable for the traveler to sleep like this. Go get a pillow and help her take off her boots so she can change her sleeping position."
"As expected of you, little Paimeng knows how to order people around." Li Qiuzhi said jokingly, but did not refuse.
"What? I'm so small that I don't have the strength to move her. If you keep making fun of me, I'll give you a nickname!"
Paimon crossed his arms and turned his face away, as if he didn't want to pay attention to him.
Later.
Li Qiuzhi took his pillow from the room and asked Xiao Paimeng to hold it. He came to Ying's legs and squatted gently.
With his left hand, he lifted one of Ying's calves, feeling the extremely soft weight from his palm and fingers. With his right hand, he continued to hold her ankle and slightly loosened her boots.
Then pull.
The boots were slowly taken off the legs, revealing pure white semi-transparent over-the-knee stockings.
Compared to wearing long boots, when you place your palms on them, you can feel a warmer and smoother feeling.
After taking off a pair of boots, Li Qiuzhi asked Paimeng to put the pillow at one end of the sofa, let Ying use her side face as the pillow, and then put her legs onto the sofa, and then covered her with a thin blanket. That was enough.
Time passed and morning came.
The hazy light illuminates the living room through the window and finally falls on the light blue sofa.
Ying yawned, rubbed her eyes and opened them. When she felt relaxed, she felt something pressing on her stomach.
Slightly lifting the thin blanket covering her body, she saw little Paimon, who had taken off his crown, sleeping soundly on her belly, with a trace of saliva leaking from the corner of his mouth.
It's like dreaming about some delicious food.
Uh. Speaking of food, she seemed to have thought of something. She fell asleep while sitting on the sofa last night. Could she still be at Li Qiuzhi's house now?
Ying thought a little embarrassedly.
"Ah, you're awake, traveler. Drink up~" Paimon floated up under the quilt and yawned, saying in a daze, "I saw you were sleeping so soundly last night so I didn't wake you up. I had to let you spend the night on the sofa."
"Is that so? Wait, over there at the hotel."
Ying suddenly realized that the eight thousand Mora she spent to rent a hotel wasted.
"Why don't you just stay here? There are still rooms available, so you don't have to continue renting a hotel which is so expensive."
Li Qiuzhi came out of the kitchen with breakfast in his hands and said to the two people who were already awake.
"Hehe, that's right. The conditions here are better than a hotel. Let's stay here for a while before we earn Mora."
Paimon nodded and said with a smile.
"Hey, isn't this too much trouble?"
Ying was a little tempted. If she stayed in a hotel, it would not take long for her to empty her family's savings, especially since Paimon was so small but had a surprisingly large appetite.
"How could that be? Just think of it as roommates. You are an honorary knight. When the time comes, you can mention it to the guerrilla leader Eula. I'm sure she won't have any objections."
