The Homeless Man of Teyvat

Chapter 38 You Mondlanders...

Time always flies by quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it’s the day when Chen Tianfeng and Curry make an appointment to set off.

Chen Tianfeng left the room early, placed his rucksack on the maroon horse's back, and led it into the group of merchants.

The clatter of horses' hooves left a series of semicircular hoofprints on the wooden plank bridge.

The sound of chickens is heard in Maodian, and the frost is everywhere in Banqiao.

Chen Tianfeng raised his head and glanced at Xiaoyue, his black eyes catching its afterglow, and a familiar poem suddenly appeared in his heart.

"Brother Chen, how have you been these past two days?"

Torrance came over with a generous smile: "If you ask me, Wangshu Inn is good everywhere, but I'm not happy with the wine. When brothers arrive in Mondstadt, come to the [Angel's Gift] pub to find me, I'll invite you Have a good time, brother!”

"Then I'm looking forward to it." Chen Tianfeng responded with a smile, and then became curious: "Uncle Torrance also works at Angel's Gift? I remember that the tavern is also the property of Dawn Winery, owned by the Ore Adventure Group and Dawn Winery One of the collaborations?”

"That's not true."

Torrance waved his hand and smiled with inexplicable pride: "After completing this commission, I have a full three months of vacation! Of course I have to stay in the tavern every day!"

Having a holiday is indeed something to be happy about, but what is there to be proud of spending time in a pub every day?

You Mondstadt people.

Chen Tianfeng couldn't laugh or cry, and understood why Torrance had no intention of agreeing on a time with him - as long as Torrance was still in Mondstadt, he would be in the tavern every day, so there was no need to agree on a time.

The group of people walked along the official road. The animals that had rested for two days were in good spirits and did not need to be driven. They carried heavy goods and followed the merchants docilely.

The sunshine gradually dispersed the dew in the late autumn morning, and the sun also dazzled my eyes.

It was already noon, and the group found a suitable place to unload the goods and let the animals rest and graze. Then the work was divided, those who gathered firewood gathered firewood, and those who set up stoves set up stoves, and they started to work.

Chen Tianfeng didn't want to sit around waiting for a meal, so he rolled up his sleeves and happily joined the cooking process, saying that he wanted to show off his skills and invite everyone to taste the delicacies of his hometown.

Although it is said to be gourmet food, it is actually just an ordinary dish.

Chen Tianfeng took the beef packed at the inn and counted the types and quantities of spices. He planned to use half of it to make soup and half to grill it.

Gradually, the aroma of meat fills the air, making people salivate.

The amount of beef is limited, so it’s not possible to satisfy everyone. The merchants gathered in small groups around their stoves, holding either a small bowl of beef soup or steamed buns with some beef in their hands. While eating, they did not forget to praise Chen Tianfeng's craftsmanship.

Chen Tianfeng also took some food that he watched the merchants prepare with his own eyes and gave the same compliment with a thumbs up.

The atmosphere is very harmonious.

After the meal, several merchants got up on their own initiative, wiped the pots and bowls, and put them back one by one.

Take a short rest and set off again.

Chen Tianfeng and Tuo Lanxi rode horses and walked side by side, Curry looked after the caravan goods, and the other two adventurers lined up on the left and right, alert to the surrounding movements.

Torrance was quite talkative and pulled Chen Tianfeng along the way to tell many interesting stories about Mondstadt.

A few years ago, the Knights of the West Wind had a hard-working maid knight named Noelle. She was very enthusiastic. No matter who encountered difficulties, as long as she sincerely asked this girl for help, she would do her best to provide it. help.

It is this maid knight who keeps saying that she is not a [Knight] yet, and is even studying to prepare to take the assessment of the Knights. It is really strange.

——In the hearts of most Mondstadt people, this lovely girl has long been a true knight.

There is also a mysterious code in the library of the Knights of the West Wind. Books borrowed there must be kept carefully without causing damage, and the date of return of the book must be kept in mind without delay.

Otherwise, that elegant lady with a huge mind, Miss Lisa, the librarian of the Knights of the West Wind, would not mind giving some small punishments to those borrowers who violate the rules, such as Miss Lisa's lightning magic, which is second to none in the Knights.

Torrance quietly told Chen Tianfeng that although Miss Lisa would punish all readers who borrowed books and did not return them, some people specifically borrowed books and did not return them just to get punishment from Miss Lisa.

These people said that Miss Lisa's punishment was not a punishment, but a numbing reward. The only regret is that when they collapsed to the ground due to numbness, Miss Lisa didn't show a look of disgust and step on them with her feet...

——Chen Tianfeng was greatly shocked.

You Mondstadts...

Torrance immediately said that he was definitely not such a person, and he was even more ashamed to associate with these people.

Then he changed the topic and talked about another well-received tavern in Mondstadt - the Cat Tail Tavern.

The popular bartender there is a girl with cat ears and a cat tail named Diona. Wine drinkers in Mondstadt unanimously believe that Diona is the supernova of the Mond wine industry and the biggest challenger to traditional forces.

As long as it is a wine made by Diona, no matter what strange ingredients are used or how unreliable the mixing techniques seem, there is no doubt that the wine she makes will be impeccable wine.

It's just that this genius bartender always shouts about destroying the Mondstadt wine industry, etc., and calls himself the "Liquor Industry Killer". People can't understand why, and can only sigh, maybe this is the girl's [ Tsundere] Right.

In addition to these anecdotes, Torrance also told a lot.

For example, the old aristocratic girl who appeared in the tavern and said "revenge", making people feared and rejected, heard that this girl actually joined the Knights of the West Wind; the bard who played the piano well and claimed to be the best poet , but because he looked too young, the bartender refused to sell him wine. In desperation, he called on the audience to feed him money instead of feeding him during the concert, and he developed the unique skill of playing the piano while drinking with a wine glass in his mouth.

Chen Tianfeng listened attentively, chiming in a few words from time to time, matching the protagonist in the interesting stories told by Tuolancy with a familiar figure in the game.

Then the world seemed to become less strange.

Sometimes you will encounter a group of treasure thieves blocking your way.

When Tuo Lanxi accepted the caravan's commission, he naturally would not back down, nor would he dump these troubles directly on Chen Tianfeng. After traveling all over the country over the years, Torrance has become very skilled in handling these matters.

In Chen Tianfeng's opinion, the whole process is quite interesting, and even has a bit of a "jianghu" flavor in the original world novel:

When they met, they first cupped their hands, said thank you for your hard work, lowered your posture, and then announced your home address, tactfully saying that their team was really not worth attacking.

After some exchanges mixed with some incomprehensible "black words", most of the treasure thieves blocking the way gave way. Some even explained that they came to Dihuazhou because of the peculiar flower of the ground and wanted to gain knowledge, and they only wanted to ask them for information when they stopped.

Torrance answered one by one, keeping in harmony with each other.

There were also some who were holding knives and grinning ferociously, shouting in a thick voice, "I own this mountain," and they must let the merchants leave some belongings or even their lives. Occasionally, you will encounter wandering monsters, some of which are projections, and some of which are not, but they all rush up with a "YA!" and a wooden stick or something else.

At this time, Torrance stopped being unreasonable and asked the other two adventurers to protect the caravan. He and Chen Tianfeng cooperated to drive away these greedy thieves.

While cooperating, Torrance saw a bandage on Chen Tianfeng's left wrist, so after driving away the thieves, he hurriedly asked with concern whether Chen Tianfeng's injury was serious and that he had good medicine for the injury.

Chen Tianfeng smiled and waved his hand, saying that the wound was just an accidental touch and had long since healed. Then he took off the bandage, and it turned out that the skin underneath was smooth and clean, with no scars visible.
