Genshin Impact: Zhongli discovered that he was stealing tributes at the beginning

For several days, Wu Ye practiced hard. Jiang Xue went up the mountain once and left him a sword manual, saying that it contained his understanding of the sword and the sword moves he had learned over the years, which made Wu Ye Ye took a good look at it when he was free, and Xieyue also gave Wu Ye a secret book on cultivating Qi.

Therefore, Wu Ye frantically squeezed the time he had to eat and sleep. He practiced for ten hours a day. It was miserable, but he made no progress at all, which made him very anxious.

It's another new day. Wu Ye mentioned the wooden sword that Zhenyang Zhuyang made for himself. The wooden sword was engraved with two words - divided equally. Wu Ye asked Zhenjun to add it to it.

Wu Ye followed the sword posture in the sword manual and pointed forward, but there was no next move, because he noticed a butterfly landed on the tip of the sword, a small white butterfly, just standing there quietly. With.

Wu Ye stretched out his left hand, and the little butterfly flew into Wu Ye's hand very intelligently.

"Little butterfly, go pick flowers. This is what you want to do. After all, you can't get anything from me."

Wu Ye said softly, but the little butterfly still stayed in Wu Ye's hand and slowly flapped its wings.

"Haha, how can a butterfly understand what I say? It seems that I practice too hard."

"How about taking a break today?"

"No, no, no! I want to continue practicing! Start training as soon as possible and return to Liyue Port as soon as possible!"

"That's not right. Can't we return to Liyue Port without leaving the army? Am I obsessed with it? Or am I just eager for quick success?"

"Little Butterfly, I want to take a rest, what do you think?"

The little butterfly listened to Wu Ye's soliloquy and silently flew to Wu Ye's shoulder.

Wu Ye suddenly felt very tired and wanted to fall down and sleep.

"Why do I have to practice so hard? I don't want to be the savior!"

"I just want to learn some life-saving skills, and leave the world to the travelers. I just want to live a peaceful life, write books, and spend this life with my grandfather and Hu Tao."

"Forget it, no more practice today! Come on!"

Wu Ye put aside all the sword and boxing manuals, lay on the ground and narrowed his eyes, while the little butterfly danced away.

"Okay, Zuoyue, you don't have to worry, he will have a good rest today."

Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun unfolded his palm, and a small white butterfly appeared.

"That's good. Cultivation also requires a balance between work and rest. As the saying goes, haste leads to waste. The more anxious you are, the less gain you will gain. But this kid didn't listen to advice. I was also afraid that he would become stupid through practice, so I asked You use a small device to hypnotize him."

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Sora and Paimon looked at the lithe girl knight who stopped them halfway.

"I am the Scout Knight of the Knights of the West Wind, Amber. Are you not a citizen of Mondstadt? Then, please explain your identity!"

The girl knight raised her bow and asked in the air, while the eye-catching red bunny ears hair ornament on her head stood up.

"Calm down, we are not suspicious persons!"

"Any suspicious person would say that."

"Hello, I'm Sora."

"It doesn't sound like a local name. And this... mascot, what's going on?"

"It's emergency food."

......

"In short, you are a traveler, right? There have been dragons around Mondstadt recently. It is better for you to enter the city as soon as possible. This is not far from Mondstadt, so as a knight, I will escort you."

Amber led Sora and Paimon towards Mondstadt, while Sora walked behind, thinking of the scene he saw not long ago:

A strange man spoke to a giant dragon, and with his arrival, the dragon was frightened away, and the strange man also left, leaving only a red stone. He felt that this stone was not simple, so he kept the stone got up.

"Huh? Don't you have any other tasks when you leave the city?"

Pamon asked curiously as he flew to Amber's side.

"Of course, but don't worry, your safety will be guaranteed during the mission. And...I can't leave suspicious people alone!"

Amber replied seriously.

"This kind of title is very rude to the guests."

Kong said helplessly.

"Huh...I'm sorry, this is not the words a good knight should use. I apologize to you, uh...strange and respectable travelers."

"What a blunt statement!"

"Are you dissatisfied with the standard terminology in our "Knights Guidance Manual"?!

"Hey, traveler of unknown origin, why did you come to Mondstadt?"

Hearing Paimon's complaints, Amber stopped, turned around and glared at Paimon, then put her hands on her hips and looked at Sora and asked.

Sora lowered his head and did not answer, but Paimon promptly added:

"He was separated from his sister during a very, very far away journey. I am his traveling companion and am accompanying him to find his sister."

"Oh, find my family...na."

"By the way! After I finish the task at hand, I can help you put up notices in the city..."

Amber couldn't bear to see Kong's disappointed look, so she took the initiative to speak.

"Speaking of which, what's the mission?"

Sora came to his senses and asked.

"It's very simple. You'll understand when you see it later. Are they Qiuqiu people?! Don't let them go!"

A Qiuqiu camp suddenly appeared in everyone's sight. Amber quickly moved forward, nocked an arrow and nocked the bow, charged up and fired. Two rockets rushed away, hitting the Qiuqiu man holding a wooden shield, and ignited the opponent's wooden shield. Shield, while the Thunder Arrow Qiuqiu people in the camp were armed with simple crossbows and shot at Amber with arrows ground from fragments of electrical crystal.

With quick hands, Kong Yan raised his edgeless sword to block Amber's arrow, and then shouted:

"Go with the wind!"

He used wind breath to agitate, condensing the wind elements to summon a strong tornado that blew towards the Qiuqiu people whose wooden shields were on fire. The green tornado dyed into a fire tornado when it came into contact with the fire. The Qiuqiu people holding the wooden shields were instantly burned to ashes. , and the surrounding Qiuqiu people were also sucked in. When the tornado disappeared, all the Qiuqiu people were burned up.

"Recently, these monsters in the wilderness are approaching the city. My mission this time is to clean up their camp."

"But I didn't expect that you are not a passerby without fighting ability...Thank you for your support just now. Speaking of which, why did the Qiuqiu people appear here?"

Amber thought.

"Such a creature wouldn't normally set up a camp so close to the city, would it?"

"Yes, they should only be wandering in the wilderness. But recently, the Wind Demon Dragon has appeared frequently, orchards have been destroyed, and trade routes have been affected. People are often injured when storms break out, so the Knights have to concentrate on defense."

Amber nodded and answered Paimon's question. She quickly walked forward to a higher place, scouted the surroundings and said:

"But I cleared another camp today, which is still very rewarding. Come with me! The serious and responsible scout knight will escort you into the city."

......

"Amber? Are there many scout knights like you in Mondry?"

Upon hearing Paimon's question, the girl who had been lively and enthusiastic along the way suddenly fell into silence. After a few seconds, she raised her face and said with a bright smile:

"There used to be many, but now I'm the only one. But... I believe there will definitely be more scout knights in the future!"

......

After walking for about half an hour, the group of two people, plus emergency food, finally arrived at the stone bridge outside the gate of Mondstadt.

Amber stopped, looked ahead, and said enthusiastically:

"Please allow me to formally introduce Mondstadt, the idyllic city of wind and dandelions, the city of freedom. Travelers protected by the Knights of the West Wind, welcome to Mondstadt!"
