The wild geese fall on the flat sand and the rain stops, and the light smoke slants over Dihuazhou.

The poem is not so suitable for the occasion, because it is still early summer, there are no geese, but there are quite a few wild ducks... However, in Liyue's traditional culture, it is an indisputable fact that Ogi flowers are often accompanied by feelings of separation.

During the season when Dihua is in full bloom, Liyue merchants can't help but look back at Dihuazhou when they enter the Shimen Plank Road, and shed tears in front of the beautiful scenery of clear water touching the sky and blooming flowers like the sea.

But today, there was no such atmosphere in the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce's caravan.

Mei Xin, the accountant of the caravan who was trying to help the guys push the truck onto the plank road, turned her head and glanced at the looming figure among the flowers, and couldn't help complaining to the caravan manager Bo Wen.

"Uncle Bowen, don't worry about that guy! Everyone is working hard, but he is lazy!"

Hearing Mei Xin's complaint, Shang Wu, the bodyguard leader of the caravan, also echoed: "That's right! Uncle Bowen, Shimen is not peaceful recently. That kid left the team without authorization. If he encounters Qiuqiu people or a treasure stealing group, I will not be responsible for saving him." Him!"

Before Bo Wen could speak, Mei Xin had already fired at him, "How can that be done! You are the head of the bodyguard, and your duty is to protect everyone in the caravan! One of the caravan members was injured. I’m going to deduct your bonus!”

Shang Wu was reprimanded and could only quickly make amends: "Axin, I'm just saying! Look at this journey, if it weren't for the hard work of me and my brothers, would it have been so smooth?"

The bodyguards under Shang Wu also echoed: "That's right, Sister Xin. If Brother Shang Wu hadn't led the team to explore a mile every day along the way, how could we not have encountered even a Qiuqiu person?"

Mei Xin was speechless for a moment.

Upon seeing this, Bowen quickly made peace with him with a dry smile.

Soon, the trucks were pushed onto the resting platform of Shimen Plank Road.

Mei Xin wiped her sweat while counting the heads, but found that the lazy guy hadn't caught up yet, so she couldn't help but yelled at the bottom of the plank road: "Xiao Danzi! If you don't catch up, we won't wait for you!"

The clear voice echoed through the stone walls, shocking the young men in the caravan who couldn't help but cover their ears quietly, and the wild ducks in the water flew up in surprise.

After a while, a young man in a coarse cloth jacket ran up along the plank road, carrying a bamboo basket on his back and two large strings of fat perch threaded with flower stalks in his hands.

Seeing Fei Yu, Mei Xin's expression softened slightly, but she still stepped forward and grabbed the young man's ears and lectured: "You guy! How dare you run so far alone? Uncle Bowen emphasized this to everyone before setting off. However, there has been some unrest near Shimen recently, have you turned a deaf ear to it?"

The young man's face was twisted in pain, and he repeatedly begged for mercy: "Sister Xin, please forgive me! Didn't I see there were fat fish and ponytails in the inlet, so I ran to get some? This is my job, too!"

Mei Xin was still unwilling to let go. She crooked her arm and clamped the boy's neck under her arm again, causing his face to turn red. "The caravan has brought enough supplies. Where do you need to find these wild foods? Don't dare to leave the group next time." , Uncle Bowen doesn’t care about you, sister, I have to beat your ass!”

The bodyguards who were watching on the sidelines couldn't help but swallow with envy when they saw the young man's head pressed tightly against Mei Xin's plump chest.

Shang Wu's face immediately fell, and he took a long puff from his pipe.

The subordinate next to him saw this and came forward and said: "Boss, look at that boy taking advantage of Sister Xin all day long because of his young age and good looks. You have to take care of it!"

Shang Wu glared at his subordinate, "What the hell do you know! As for that boy who doesn't even have full hair, A Xin only took care of him because he was young. Sir, why should I embarrass him? Who is the mainstay of the caravan, everyone?" It’s all in sight!”

The subordinates could only retreat awkwardly.

At this time, all the caravan crew members had already sat down and rested at the tea stall in the rest area.

Seeing that the young man had finally escaped from Mei Xin's clutches, they all laughed and teased him, "Xiao Danzi, do you know how powerful the tigress in our caravan is? Do you still dare to run around?"

The young man put the bamboo basket and the fat fish on the ground, and hummed unconvinced: "You guys, it's not too big of a deal to watch the excitement, right? Okay! That night's 'Qiu Qiu Wood Grilled Fish' and 'Horse Tail Glutinous Rice' Stop eating the meat!"

"Huh? Aren't these two dishes the unique skills of Miss Xiangling, the little cook at Wanmintang? How did you learn them?"

"Hey! I told you earlier that my cooking skills are as good as Xiangling's, and they often learn from each other, but you still don't believe it! I'm going to show you tonight!"

The young man was bragging with his hands on his hips when he heard a soft thud and a large bowl of tea was placed on the wooden table next to him.

"Where did your so-called Qiu Qiu Mu come from?"

The young man looked back at Mei Xin, whose eyebrows were upturned. He winced and said with a smile, "I picked it up... I picked it up..."

The caravan guys laughed.

Amid the laughter of everyone, a bamboo raft filled with unconscious Qiuqiu people slowly floated out from the Dihuadang under the Shimen Plank Road and headed towards the depths of the water.

After nightfall, all the guys who had had a good meal got into the tent and fell asleep quickly.

In a corner of the camp, Bo Wen quietly came to the young man's side, cupped his hands and said: "Master Niyu, Mei Xin is wild-tempered, but actually has a good heart. Please don't mind."

Niyu, who was wearing a coarse cloth jacket, smiled and waved his hand: "Uncle Bowen, don't take it too seriously. Just think of me as a serious caravan cook. If you are always so polite, sooner or later you will arouse suspicion."

Bo Wen laughed twice, and after hesitating for a moment, he still asked: "Why does Master Niwa hide his identity? Is there any problem with going to Mondstadt to do business openly?"

Of course it's to guard against fools! The emperor gave special instructions!

Niyu did not explain, but just reminded: "Uncle Bowen, remember to remind everyone to be vigilant tomorrow. The number of monsters near the stone gate is alarming."

Bowen nodded and said: "I heard about this situation last month. I didn't even see Nechiu Qiumao along the way. I knew it was Master Niwa who took action..."

"I heard that Falga, the grand leader of the Knights of the West Wind, led the elite forces of the Knights to leave Mondstadt more than a month ago. Now the Knights of the West Wind are seriously short of manpower and have to withdraw their garrison near the stone gate."

"The Shimen Plank Road has always been an area of ​​no concern. Once Mondstadt's garrison was reduced, both the Qiuqiu people and the treasure stealing group were all eyeing this place..."

"But please don't worry, Master Niwa. I have contacted a few familiar caravans to go together tomorrow. This should be able to scare away some uninvited guests!"

Niyu nodded and looked at the huge shadow of the stone gate with his hands behind his hands, feeling increasingly uneasy in his heart.

Mond...what happened?
