The Homeless Man of Teyvat

Chapter 143 Caravan and Mingyun Town

Spring has passed, summer is getting deeper, and the weather is getting hotter.

The members of the Bran Chamber of Commerce drove the mules and horses that pulled carts or carried goods. They all left Mondstadt with slumped faces under the sympathetic eyes of the rest of the caravans.

During the Mondron disaster, many caravans were damaged, but like the Bran Chamber of Commerce, this was the only one that was unlucky enough to encounter a dragon head-on. Especially since this chamber of commerce came all the way from Liyue. Not to mention making money, being able to keep capital after this trip is already a blessing from the gods.

The caravan left the city, crossed the bridge, and headed west along the broad official road, planning to pass through Qingquan Town and Chenxi Winery, and return to Liyue through Shimen.

Although the dragon disaster has passed, traces of the raging storm can still be seen on both sides of the road. The caravans stopped and walked, either along the original road, or choosing other merchants who had recently traveled between Liyue and Mondstadt. The team was traveling fairly smoothly on the newly opened road.

Perhaps because there were not many goods on the return trip, the Bran Chamber of Commerce passed through the stone gate and entered Liyue faster than expected.

"Isn't it a little too quiet along the way?"

Chen Tianfeng had a knife on his waist and was riding a maroon horse. He turned his head and looked behind him with a rather confused expression.

What about those treasure-stealing gangs and bandits?

I remember that when he first came to Mondstadt, he encountered many bandits on the road from Shimen to Dawn Winery - and harvested a lot of molas.

But why is it so quiet this time? They are a caravan. Logically speaking, shouldn't they encounter more bandits shouting "I drive this road"?

Chen Tianfeng thought for a while and looked at Ye Lan, who was dressed as a Liyue businessman next to him: "Brother Lan You, what did you do?"

"Brother Chen misunderstood, I didn't do anything."

Ye Lan shook her head and rode side by side with Chen Tianfeng. She said in a sincere tone: "The previous section of the road was in Mondstadt. I am just an ordinary Liyue businessman. Even if I want to do something, I am unable to do anything."

"Then why didn't you see any bandits along the way?" Chen Tianfeng raised his eyebrows slightly, not believing Ye Lan's words at all, especially when she put on the "Lan You" vest again.

"Brother Chen really makes things difficult for others. I'm not a bandit. How can I know why they didn't jump out to rob the road?" Ye Lan glanced at him and said, "Besides, isn't it a good thing that the caravan can't encounter bandits?"

"...We've already left the stone gate, so there's no need to continue acting, right?"

Chen Tianfeng sighed. A normal caravan would not encounter bandits, which was indeed a good thing worth celebrating, but the caravan in front of him was not a normal caravan.

He glanced at the caravan members who looked tired, but actually had a steady heartbeat and long breathing. What kind of caravan members are here? They are clearly well-trained special warriors!

Some of them even looked familiar. Chen Tianfeng was sure that he had met them when he was learning sword skills from Ye Lan.

"There is no wrong way to be careful. The more caution you have, the more safety you will have. I don't want to risk their lives." Ye Lan said calmly.

"..."

Chen Tianfeng was silent for a few seconds, then held his hands to Ye Lan and said, "My fault."

After staying in Mondstadt for too long and being so deeply influenced by Wendy, he almost forgot how to write the word "caution", which was really wrong.

He may not care too much, but this does not mean that these "caravan members" who are still ordinary people can do the same. Mortals are too fragile. If they lose their caution, they will die one day.

Ye Lan didn't dodge, she calmly accepted Chen Tianfeng's apology, thought about it, and said, "Brother Chen really wants to meet those bandits?"

"How could it be? I wish there would be no more robbers in this world."

Chen Tianfeng shook his head, remembering his start in Teyvat and his first time traveling through time, and couldn't help but smack his lips. Neither of them seemed very good. The former was locked in a cage, while the latter found himself transformed into a big snake when he opened his eyes.

At first he couldn't even speak. He kept saying "hiss~" for a long time. Then he upgraded with the power of faith and regained the ability to speak. This made him excited for a long time. He took his high priest and talked from the evening to Late at night, the conversation continued until the sun rose, and it didn't end until the gray-haired high priest couldn't hold on and fell asleep.

After waking up, the high priest felt extremely guilty and selected several energetic young people to chat with his inexplicably excited and suddenly talkative god.

"That's a coincidence. I received news that a new group of bandits has appeared in Mingyun Town. They act in a secretive manner and are doing some shady things."

Ye Lan turned to look at Chen Tianfeng, with an imperceptible smile flashing in her eyes: "Brother Chen, are you interested in investigating with me?"

"Mingyun Town?"

Information about Mingyun Town emerged in Chen Tianfeng's mind, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "I remember that the place was in a semi-abandoned state. What were the bandits doing there? Is it for the treasure?"

In the beginning, Mingyun Town was rich in minerals and prospered for a period of time. However, the mineral resources would eventually be exhausted. Mingyun Town was not suitable for farming or transformation, so population loss was inevitable and the prosperity was no longer there. .

Mingyun Town should have ended peacefully like this, but due to some accidents, news of the treasure hidden in Mingyun Town spread like wildfire, attracting many treasure stealing groups and adventurers, making Mingyun Town temporarily lively. But unfortunately, those who came to hunt for treasure ultimately returned in vain.

Until now, except for a few persistent people, the matter of Ming Yun Zhen's treasure has just ended.

Yelan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Brother Chen also knows the rumors about the treasure in Mingyun Town?"

"I know, but I don't know much."

Chen Tianfeng nodded and sighed: "In a tragedy caused by a misunderstanding, the brothers turned against each other and fled one after another. Only a lonely old man was left, who kept talking about family mottos and treasures, and finally died of regrets."

That day, his father Yuan Hong told his three sons that he had buried a treasure in Mingyun Town, and only the three brothers could dig it out by working together.

However, Yuan Hong never expected that the money would move people's hearts, or that he had enough trust in his three sons to believe that they would not have a gap in their hearts and commit acts of monopolizing the treasure.

But Yuan Hong's third son obviously failed to live up to his father's expectations.

The eldest brother Yuan Qing was the first to go alone, intending to swallow the treasure, but unfortunately encountered a monster and died first; the oldest Yuan Liang guessed that the treasure was in the mine, gritted his teeth, went into the mine alone, and soon caught up with his brother; the oldest San Yuan Not to be outdone, Cheng also went down to the mine with the idea of ​​grabbing the treasure for himself and flying far away, and finally successfully reunited with his two brothers.

Yuan Hong lost three sons in a short period of time. He was so shaken by the huge blow that he even seemed to be mentally disturbed. He often talked about treasures and ancestral teachings. As a result, others heard about it and spread it to ten, and then everyone knew about the treasure in Mingyun Town.

But where is the treasure?

What Yuan Hong buried was just the childhood memories of the three sons of the Yuan family, hoping to awaken the brotherly tenderness in the hearts of the three brothers.
