Genshin Impact: Use various skills to create a romantic encounter

Chapter 75 Thunder Formation

"Why do you want to come to Wangshu Inn for dinner today?" Zhongli asked with a smile as he stood on the high platform of the inn.

"Well, I heard that the poetry competition semi-finals will be held in Dihua Island. I've never been here, so I wanted to come and see it." Heidi explained, "It just so happens that the sun is shining brightly today, and Zhongli, you have done a thorough study of food culture, so I'd like to invite you to eat and chat with us to learn about Liyue culture."

"Is that so? Then I'd be disrespectful to refuse." Zhongli looked indifferent.

After Heidi finished speaking, she pretended to glance at the roof casually, wondering if Xiao was there.

"There is a attic on the top of this inn. Since this is your first time here, you can go up and take a look. The view there is quite nice," Zhongli introduced with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll go up and take a look." Heidi ran up to the attic skillfully.

I don’t know if I can see Xiao. If not, please ask the inn to cook some almond tofu for me.

Heidi didn't force it, she knew Xiao liked quietness.

Zhongli asked Ruotu, "What do you think about Heidi's dream?"

"According to my observation, Xiao's karma is getting worse, and the rift should be approaching."

"Is there a date?"

"Just these two days." Ruo Tuo sighed, "These two days are not easy."

Zhongli didn't say anything. He just looked up in the direction of the attic, lost in thought.

In the attic, Heidi had no interest in looking at the scenery. She just stared at the eaves and even thought about climbing up the eaves to take out all the bird eggs.

She shook her head to get rid of the strange thought.

"Forget it. It's normal not to see each other." Heidi comforted herself.

She stared at him unwillingly for a long time before she got up and left silently.

"Thank you for saving me. I'm safe." A gust of wind blew, and Xiao's voice floated over.

A pure heart flew to Heidi on the wind.

Heidi stretched out her hand, and Qingxin swayed and fell into Heidi's palm, and a faint fragrance brushed over Heidi's nose.

"Peace is good enough."

Heidi stared at the pure heart, smiled with peace of mind, and went downstairs to find Zhongli.

After Heidi left, Xiao appeared on the eaves, looking haggard.

If it weren't for his strong and resilient character, he would have gone crazy after days of torture.

……

It was night again, Heidi held the old stone in her hand, hoping that she would not have any more dreams tonight.

"What is this? Jueyunjian..." Heidi found herself standing on a high mountain top, with steep cliffs on all sides. The steep and straight mountains near and far were just black shadows in the dark night, like vertical lines drawn with a brush.

The top of the mountain is not very large. Because of its high and steepness, there are only some shrubs growing on it. Only two pure heart trees bloom quietly in the dark, showing the beauty of life.

There was only the sound of the whistling wind on the top of the mountain. Heidi sat cross-legged, staring blankly ahead.

"It's so peaceful tonight. Did Xiao finally get a good night's sleep?" Heidi thought it would be nice to sit like this all night. At least there were no monsters around.

Just as he finished speaking, a bolt of lightning struck straight down, hitting the top of the mountain opposite Heidi, and sparks and stones flew everywhere.

Then the exploded stones turned into evil spirits, running around on the hills as if they could fly.

Heidi was numbed half way up by the thunder, her hair stood straight up and her ears felt buzzing.

She shook her head, but felt like something was covering it. She saw the monster rushing towards her, but she seemed to have forgotten how to resist and looked at it in confusion.

The next second, when she was about to be pounced upon by the monster, Xiao flashed, grabbed Heidi's arm, and flew to another hill with two Qingxin plants.

He helped Heidi sit down, picked the Qingxin flower core and asked her to take it.

"Xiao?" Heidi felt that she was finally sober, and she felt inexplicably at ease when she saw Xiao.

Xiao did not respond, and took Heidi to another hilltop. Then, a straight bolt of lightning struck the place where they had just landed, illuminating half of the sky.

"Ah..." Heidi's face was filled with horror. She couldn't think of any words to describe it for a moment. She just felt like she was on the guillotine and her life was about to end at any moment.

"There's a thunderstorm tonight..." Xiao's eyes were calm but sad, as if he was already familiar with all this. "Heidi, I don't know how long I can hold on. I'm sorry."

"It's okay. At worst we can get killed together. It's always good to have someone to keep you company." Heidi suppressed the fear in her heart and forced a stiff smile. "Don't feel burdened."

Xiao, why did the difficulty in your dream increase? !

It's not a problem if there's thunder, can we be on flat ground, so we can find a cave...

Heidi looked at the layout, which was full of sharp hills, and was at a loss as to what to do.

"I'll try my best. I hope I can hold on until dawn."

"Ah."

As more and more thunders fell from the sky, more and more rocks were split open. The rocks turned into evil spirits, and they swept across in groups like a dark cloud, quickly.

Xiao gradually became exhausted and his reaction to lightning slowed down.

Heidi can only help fight monsters, but this wave of monsters is not the main force, the lightning in the sky is.

"Take a break. You look terrible." Seeing Xiao's tired face, Heidi decided to use some metaphysics. "You see, the first three thunders were chasing us, so the last three should strike in the wrong direction."

"I'm fine, don't be careless." Xiao didn't dare to slack off at all.

"Tell me, are we like gophers, and God is like a hammer, hitting us for fun." Heidi felt that karma was like a prank from God, and it was so torturous.

Heidi deliberately said it in a humorous way. She felt that she should be optimistic at this time, otherwise the long night would be difficult to endure.

"Oh, so I'm a mole, not a roc?" Xiao seemed to understand Heidi's intentions and looked very humorous.

This is the way of heaven, and you should bear the consequences yourself.

But as long as there is still someone in the karma, the night doesn’t seem so long.

"Humph, I know you're very handsome as the Golden-winged Peng, but if you carry me and run away, wouldn't I just be... a mole..." Heidi pouted.

"rational."

"Huh?" Heidi was stunned.

Xiao didn't say anything, but a slight smile appeared in his eyes.

"Heidi, let's continue." Xiao pulled Heidi's arm and dodged the thunder that was about to strike.

"Thank you, Xiao Niao." Heidi looked at the thunder exploding behind her and broke out in a cold sweat.

The thunder in the sky was like the water in a river, it never stopped.

Unfortunately, no matter how strong the roc is, it can't fly into the sky.

Suddenly, several huge lightning bolts fell from the sky at the same time, like a huge electric net.

Xiao smiled bitterly. He protected Heidi under his body, took a bolt of lightning and threw Heidi onto the rocks. However, because he had exhausted all his strength, he paused in the air for a moment and then fell straight down.

"elf!"

Heidi's voice was filled with fear and anger.

This is anger against the way of heaven.

Xiao protects the people of Liyue and kills demons and evil spirits. What has he done wrong?

"God, you are so unfair. Once, twice, how many times has this happened? Haven't you had enough?" Heidi shouted to the sky, with tears in her eyes and a look of unwillingness on her face.

She took out a blood contract and smashed her hand on the rock wall, letting blood drip onto the contract.

A string of blood-red runes flew up and pierced into Heidi's heart like a bullet.

Heidi's eyes were red and she jumped off the cliff without hesitation.

[Blood Contract] can teleport and attack, but I don’t know how long my blood can burn.

I hope, God, it will be bright soon!

Heidi caught Xiao, and it seemed as if God understood Heidi's plan, and lightning struck quickly.

Heidi dodged quickly, like a shadow in the dark night.

"Hold on, it will be dawn in a second."

It would be fine when the day breaks. Heidi tried hard to think positively. If the night passed, she would go and invite Xiao to watch the sunrise.

Watching a sunrise together.

Heidi thought so.

But human life is like a short candle, it does not last long.
