Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Shao Yun looked at the intelligence sheet in his hand, then raised his head and said to Ningguang, "By the way, Miss Ningguang, I want this sheet."

Ningguang was slightly startled, a trace of doubt flashed across her brows. She looked at Shao Yun in confusion, but still nodded and said, "Okay, but why do you want this order?"

Shao Yun smiled slightly and gently put the intelligence sheet in his hand into the "Eastern Legend" backpack on his waist. He explained: "I promised Paimon that I would get a piece of 'Snowbreaker' from you. I have to report to you."

As soon as Ningguang heard the word "broken snow", she immediately understood.

She pointed at the dazzling array of intelligence sheets on the wall and said, "Over there is a price forecast for the recent mineral market. That information is priceless to a businessman. Whether you do business yourself or sell it to others, you can make a lot of profit. Why don't you choose that one?"

Shao Yun held up two fingers and said casually, "There are two reasons. First, I, Shao Yun, have never lacked money. Moreover, after I rob the Northland Bank, my wealth will be even greater. Therefore, the price forecast of the ore market is not very attractive to me."

Ningguang heard Shao Yun's astonishing plan, and a trace of astonishment flashed in her eyes. She opened her mouth slightly, as if she couldn't believe her ears, and said with a trembling voice: "Are you really going to rob the Northland Bank?"

When Shao Yun saw her expression, excitement flashed in his eyes, and he nodded vigorously.

"Of course. When Liyue and the Fatui fall out, I will go and rob their bank. And at that time, I won't be wanted by you. This is something I never thought possible!"

Ningguang took a deep breath, trying to calm her shock.

"What about the second reason you mentioned?"

Shao Yun looked at Ningguang, his expression became much more serious, and he spoke in a low voice.

"I want Ying and Paimon to see one thing clearly, that is, the Fatui cannot be trusted. I have long seen through their greed and hypocrisy. Through this action, I want to make them understand that even the Fatui with a smile on their faces are a group of wolves in sheep's clothing!"

Ningguang listened to his words and nodded slightly. She understood Shao Yun's determination and intention. But she still couldn't help but remind him.

“When you rob a bank, don’t set it on fire. Liyue Harbor’s fire prevention measures are very good, but I always have a feeling that you will burn down the entire Liyue Harbor.”

Shao Yun looked at Ningguang's worried eyes, nodded seriously, and replied: "Okay, when the time comes, you just need to evacuate the crowd and don't let the children see the bloody scene. I still remember that in Mondstadt, there was a 'pirate captain' who was full of lies. He failed to control the scene and let a fifteen-year-old girl see the bloody scene. I almost beat him up."

When Shao Yun thought of this, he recalled how Noel looked at that time, and he wanted to go back to Mond to beat Kaeya up.

Ningguang's worries were slightly relieved after hearing Shao Yun's words. She nodded and replied, "Okay, I understand. I will send the Qianyan Army to quarantine the area around the Northland Bank."

Shao Yun was very excited after hearing this. The Qianyan Army maintained order, while he went in and robbed openly. This was something he could never have imagined in his dreams!

……

Shao Yun left the Qun Yu Pavilion and came to Yujing Terrace, where he saw Grandma Ping admiring the flowers.

Suddenly I thought of Ying and Paimeng going to borrow the Dichen Bell. I wonder what stage they have reached.

So he walked towards Grandma Ping and asked softly, "Hello, are you Grandma Ping?"

When Grandma Ping heard the voice, she slowly raised her head, looked at Shao Yun, and said kindly, "Hello, young man, what can I do for you?"

Shao Yun smiled slightly and replied: "I'm looking for a blonde girl and a white-haired person floating in the air... um, a child."

He paused slightly, trying to find more appropriate words to describe Paimon.

Grandma Ping nodded, as if she already knew everything. She smiled and said, "Oh, you mean Ying and Paimeng, right? I just met them. They also mentioned you, saying your name is Shao Yun, right?"

Shao Yun nodded and then asked, "Where are they now? Do you know?"

Grandma Ping smiled gently, pointed to the exquisite teapot on the table, and said, "They are looking for something in my pot. They will come out soon."

Shao Yun heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. It turned out that it had only gotten to this point, which was not bad.

"Oh, I see. I'll wait for them for a while." Shao Yun replied calmly.

Grandma Ping looked at Shao Yun's calm face and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. She exclaimed and asked, "Shao Yun, why aren't you curious about how those two girls got into the pot? This is really a magical thing."

Shao Yun smiled and scratched his head, seeming to sort out his thoughts. He did not directly respond to Grandma Ping's question, but changed the subject and said, "I suddenly remembered a joke, which I think is quite interesting. Do you want to hear it?"

When Granny Ping heard this, she showed a hint of interest on her face. She asked, "Oh? What's the joke? Can you tell it to me?"

Shao Yun thought for a moment, then asked, "Have you heard of Xumi's camel beast? If I want to put it in the closet, how many steps do you think it will take?"

Grandma Ping shook her head, indicating that she didn't know. She looked at Shao Yun, her eyes full of curiosity and expectation.

Shao Yun held up three fingers and said seriously, "Three steps. The first step is to open the cabinet door. The second step is to put the elephant—oh no, the camel—in. The third step is to close the cabinet door."

After hearing this joke, Grandma Ping was stunned for a moment, then an awkward smile appeared on her face.

"It's a pretty cold joke, right?" Shao Yun asked.

She shook her head helplessly and said, "Ah, haha, this joke... is indeed a bit cold."

"In this ancient and mysterious land of Liyue, some things do require us to think carefully, but some things are actually better left to us simply and clearly. For example, the two of them are now in the pot, just like putting a camel into a closet. We don't need to delve too deeply into it, we just need to wait."

Shao Yun spoke indirectly, looking confident.

After hearing this, Grandma Ping smiled with sudden enlightenment.

"Hahaha, young man, you really know how to joke. It seems you have seen through my true identity."

Shao Yun smiled slightly, nodded, and said with a firm look: "You are an immortal, and your name is 'Ge Chen Lang Shi Zhen Jun', am I right?"

Grandma Ping nodded slightly, a hint of melancholy flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "Yes, it's been a long time since anyone called me that, I really miss it."

Shao Yun looked at Grandma Ping and whispered, "Don't worry, I won't tell Ying and Paimeng about this."

However, Grandma Ping shook her head, and a smile appeared on her face again. She said, "It's okay for you to tell them. You all have immortal affinity, and my identity is no secret to you."

After hearing this, Shao Yun shook his head, a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said, "Haha, Xianyuan, if I can become an immortal, then the law of nature must be blind."

In the soft sunlight, Grandma Ping gently patted Shao Yun's arm, her face filled with a warm smile, and she said softly: "Why don't you accompany me, an old woman, to appreciate the flowers and kill some time. I think it will take a while for those two girls to come out of the pot."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun subconsciously reached into his backpack and took out a cigar.

Just as he was about to light the fire, he paused and looked at Grandma Ping with a questioning look in his eyes.

Grandma Ping smiled, her eyes full of kindness and understanding. She nodded gently.

"It's okay, I'll keep it a secret, but I still want to remind you that young people should smoke less, it's bad for your health."

After hearing this, Shao Yun smiled slightly. He looked at the cigar in his hand, then shook his head and put the cigar back.

He then took out a bottle of gin, gently unscrewed the cap, and a rich aroma of wine wafted out.

He raised the bottle and said to Grandma Ping, "Okay, I'll have some gin."

Then the two of them sat on a stone bench nearby, and Shao Yun chatted with Grandma Ping while drinking gin.

……

"I don't really like fishing, but you know what? The moment the fish is hooked, the nervousness, and the satisfaction of catching the fish are irreplaceable."

Grandma Ping nodded and said, "Fishing? It's good for self-cultivation. It's a pity that I haven't fished for a long time."

Shao Yun drank the last drop of wine in the bottle, pursed his lips, and then told Grandma Ping about his hunting experience.

"But for me, hunting is actually the easiest. I use special hollow rifle bullets and shoot the animal with one shot, and it will die immediately. Unless the animal is ridiculously large or particularly special, it will not be able to withstand a single shot."

When she heard about hunting, Grandma Ping had something to say.

"Hunting is a good thing. I remember that thousands of years ago, the ancient Liyue people also hunted. About 1,300 years ago, a man used a bow and arrow to kill twelve wild boars in one day. It seemed that a banquet was held at that time. It was very lively."

Just then, a light breeze blew by, the teapot on the table shook slightly, and Ying and Paimon came out.

Their appearance interrupted the conversation between Shao Yun and Grandma Ping.

In Ying's hand was a dust-cleansing bell that was flickering with a faint light.

"Grandma Ping, we found it."

Grandma Ping saw this and a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, but then turned into joy. She looked at the dust-cleaning bell in Ying's hand and said with a smile: "Young man, you are very skillful. You got it so quickly."

Her voice is like a spring breeze, making people feel extremely comfortable.

Ying smiled and shook the bell, and replied: "Thank you for the compliment, Grandma Ping, we will take this Dust-Clearing Bell away."

Grandma Ping waved her hand and said lightly, "It's okay. I asked for this from the Emperor. Since you can use it, take it."

At this time, Ying noticed Shao Yun who was sitting next to her. Her eyes widened and she said in surprise: "Ah! Shao Yun? I didn't expect to see you so suddenly."

Paimon heard Ying's voice, turned around, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"I thought you wouldn't be out until noon. You're so quick."

Shao Yun put away the empty bottle, stood up and said, "Nothing, let's not talk about me first. Where is Mr. Zhongli? Why didn't he come?"

Paimon pointed to the north and replied, "Mr. Zhongli said he went to look for wild colored lilies and left ahead. He asked us to find him at Dihua Island."

Shao Yun nodded, frowning slightly, as if thinking about something. He said, "I see, so we still need a kite..."

When Shao Yun mentioned the treatment of Feng Zheng, Paimeng immediately showed a relaxed expression on her face. She said briskly: "Feng Zheng, the young master has already dealt with that."

Shao Yun frowned when he heard this, and asked in confusion: "Young Master? When did you meet him?"

Paimon blinked her curious eyes and recalled: "Ying and I went out early in the morning. Unexpectedly, the young master was waiting for us outside the inn. He was very enthusiastic and even treated us to breakfast."

After saying this, she patted her belly with a satisfied smile on her face, talking about the feast she had just enjoyed.

"Maybe the young master really is a good guy among the Fatui." Paimon muttered, and his liking for Tartaglia increased.

Shao Yun looked at Paimeng's innocent appearance and shook his head secretly. He muttered softly, "As long as someone gives you food, you think everyone is a good person. You are just like a greedy child."

However, this also revealed a message, that is, the young master was anxious.

In this case, I can find an opportunity to accidentally leak the information.

Then, he waved his hand and brought his thoughts back to reality: "Okay, since the young master has gone to deal with it, let's go check on the kite's situation."

Paimeng nodded rapidly and turned to say goodbye to Grandma Ping who was standing beside him: "Grandma Ping, we are leaving now. Goodbye!"

Shao Yun and Ying also said goodbye to Grandma Ping. Their voices intertwined to form a warm farewell: "Grandma Ping, goodbye."

Grandma Ping smiled and replied, "Goodbye. Come visit me often when you have time."
