Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

The sun shines obliquely on the vast fields of Dihuazhou. The golden light and the whiteness of the reeds interweave into a peaceful and beautiful picture.

Shao Yun, Ying, and Paimeng who was floating in the air, rode their horses at a brisk pace, following the familiar path towards the direction where Zhongli was.

After arriving at the destination, Shao Yun took advantage of the time when Ying and Paimeng were concentrating on their conversation, approached the horses quietly and quietly put them into the system's mobile stable.

Soon, the three of them arrived at where Zhongli was.

Zhongli was seen standing quietly in an open area, gazing deeply into the distance, as if he was deeply attracted by the beautiful scenery before him.

Seeing this, Paimon waved his arms excitedly and shouted, "Mr. Zhongli, how is the search going?"

Zhongli turned around after hearing the voice, with a faint smile on his face, and said, "You came at the right time."

Paimon couldn't wait to ask, "Have you found the right glass lily?"

Zhongli shook his head slightly, sighed, and said, "It's actually not easy to find. After all, many wild glass lilies are extinct."

Shao Yun couldn't help but interrupt when he heard this: "But hard work pays off. You finally found it, right?"

Zhongli nodded and turned his gaze to a nearby glazed lily, which was growing alone in a rock crevice, its pure white petals sparkling in the sun.

"It's right there," Zhongli pointed at the glass lily and said, "But if you want to pick this flower, you'll need your help."

Paimon looked at the glazed lily growing alone in the distance, and heard Zhongli's unexpected request. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and reveal an expression of disbelief.

"Ah? Can't you just pull out the glass lily?"

Paimon's voice was full of doubt. Although Zhongli gave people an upper-class feeling, he didn't need others to do such a small thing for him.

Zhongli waved his hand gently, his expression showing a calmness. He explained: "No, I need you to sing to the flowers to enhance their fragrance."

Paimon's brows were furrowed, as if she was trying to understand this seemingly ridiculous request. She confirmed again: "Sing for Liuli Lily?"

Zhongli smiled and nodded, saying, "The Glazed Lily is a flower that communicates with human nature, and singing will enhance its fragrance. This special Glazed Lily, when crushed, has a strong fragrance, and when placed in an incense burner, it is the complete tradition of sending off the immortals."

Paimon turned to look at Ying, his starry eyes full of questions.

Ying turned her head slightly and cast her gaze at Shao Yun standing beside her.

Shao Yun was originally admiring the scenery outdoors when he suddenly felt two pairs of eyes staring at him.

Seeing the two people's pleading expressions, he couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Why are you looking at me?"

Ying's cheeks flushed slightly, and she said shyly, "Shao Yun, can you sing?"

You are still shy. What are you afraid of? There is no outsider here.

Shao Yun scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.

He looked at the blooming glass lily, then looked at the people who were waiting, and finally nodded and said, "Then I'll give it a try."

Shao Yun walked confidently to the field of blooming lilies. In the sunlight, his figure looked particularly tall and straight.

Ying and Paimeng stood aside, their eyes gleaming with anticipation, as if waiting for the surprise that Shao Yun was about to bring.

Shao Yun took a deep breath, as if he wanted to inhale the surrounding tranquility and the fragrance of flowers into his lungs.

He closed his eyes slightly, as if he was conversing with the melody in his heart.

Then he slowly opened his mouth and his magnetic voice flowed out like a clear spring.

"Brick and stone thief, brick and stone thief, we have known each other for a long time. You robbed me of everything and took away my gold, silver and treasures." Shao Yun's singing was low and rhythmic, as if telling an ancient story.

However, as the lyrics unfold, his singing begins to become freer and more passionate.

"Whiskey, you're a bad guy, you made me degenerate, you were brutal, kicking and hitting me, you made me go and fight." At this moment, his singing seemed to be integrated with all the emotions, making people feel unruly and wild.

Then his singing became gentle and affectionate again.

"I'm stepping on the stirrups, holding the reins, I'm going to follow Ying, she is the most beautiful woman in the world..."

When this line of lyrics sounded, Ying's cheeks instantly turned red.

As Shao Yun's singing became more and more bold, Ying realized something was wrong and quickly interrupted Shao Yun's singing: "Stop! Why are you getting more and more out of character!"

Although there was a hint of anger in her voice, her eyes revealed helplessness towards Shao Yun.

Shao Yun still felt unsatisfied.

"I feel fine. How wonderful. The most beautiful woman in the world, 'Ying'."

After listening to this, Ying lowered her head shyly and clasped her hands together unconsciously, as if she was really moved by Shao Yun's singing.

But this song is suitable for singing when two people are alone...

Paimon listened with his head nodding, as if he was intoxicated by the beautiful song.

She blinked and asked curiously, "What song is this?"

Shao Yun looked at Paimeng and explained with a smile, "This is a song that a talented young man and an old man used to sing by the campfire. I thought it was very interesting, so I modified it a little bit."

Then Shao Yun began to examine the glass lily.

However, the glass lily seemed to be immersed in its own world, its petals trembling slightly, but without any obvious reaction.

He couldn't help curling his lips, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes. He looked at the quiet glass lily and sighed softly.

"It seems my singing voice still can't impress this flower."

Then, Shao Yun turned his gaze to Ying who was standing beside him.

Her face was pure and beautiful, as bright and flawless as the moon in the sky. Shao Yun smiled and said, "The most beautiful woman in the world, it's your turn."

Hearing Shao Yun's praise, Ying's cheeks flushed slightly. She lowered her head shyly, bit her lip lightly, then raised her head, bravely met Shao Yun's gaze, and said softly: "Okay, then, I'll do it."

Ying's voice is like the sound of nature, gentle and melodious, full of affection and charm.

Her singing seems to have magic, which makes people immersed in it involuntarily.

The glass lily seemed to be moved by the beautiful singing. Its petals trembled slightly, as if swaying with the melody.

Shao Yun looked at the constantly shaking "Glass Lily" and suddenly thought of something. He remembered that this thing seemed to be a fake flower!

At this moment, the earth suddenly shook, and a strange force surged out from it.

The originally quiet glass lily seemed to have received some kind of call, and its roots began to twist violently, splashing dirt everywhere.

Under Ying's astonished gaze, the glass lily seemed to be given life. It broke out of the soil and turned into a huge, hideous-looking "deceptive flower".

This sudden change terrified Paimon. She screamed, "Ah! Monster!" Her voice was full of fear and anxiety.

Fortunately, Shao Yun was prepared. He quickly pulled out his revolver and aimed at the ferocious Pianpianhua.

With a loud gunshot, no magic, just a simple shot, Pianpianhua's body was instantly shattered.

Looking at the monster fragments scattered on the ground, Shao Yun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He turned to look at Ying beside him, and seeing that she was looking at him in surprise, he joked: "Ying, you are not only beautiful, but your singing voice is so beautiful that even this glass lily couldn't help but transform into a deceiving flower and wanted to kidnap you."

Hearing this, Ying couldn't help but glared at Shao Yun in annoyance, but then she laughed again and said, "I'll just take it as a compliment."

Seeing this, Shao Yun couldn't help laughing and replied, "Of course I'm praising you.

At this moment, Paimon's voice sounded extremely trembling, and her eyes were still flashing with fear.

"This is not a glass lily at all. How could a flower hit people?" Her words revealed deep astonishment and confusion.

Zhongli slowly approached the "corpse" of the Trickster Flower, squatted down and examined it carefully. He observed the petals that were now harmless and said lightly: "This should be a Trickster Flower, a monster."

When Paimon heard the word "monster", a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Will the Prank Flower eat people?"

Zhongli shook his head gently and looked at Paimon with gentle eyes, trying to calm her down.

"I haven't heard of it, but you'd better be careful when you travel in the future. It hurts a lot if you get beaten by a scammer." His voice was firm and gentle, giving people a sense of security.

Afterwards, Zhongli carefully examined the scattered flowers on the ground. His fingers gently slid across the seemingly fragile petals, as if exploring the secrets contained therein.

Shao Yun looked at this scene and couldn't help asking, "Can the 'petals' of the deceptive flower pretending to be a glass lily be used?"

Zhongli picked up a few seemingly intact petals, examined them carefully, and then replied: "They can be used as medicinal materials, but they are not high-grade enough for the ceremony of offering sacrifice to the immortals."

There was a sense of professional judgment in his voice.

Shao Yun nodded to show his understanding, and then said, "Then let's continue looking for it."

……

The sunlight shines through the sparse clouds, onto the winding path, illuminating the footsteps of several people as they explore.

Just as they looked around, trying to find the rare glass lily in the dense grass, a breeze blew by, bringing the fresh scent of grass and trees, as well as a familiar figure.

Ganyu, the elegant and dignified Kirin girl, suddenly appeared in their sight.

She seemed to be surprised by this sudden encounter, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes as deep as lake water.

She looked at the four people in front of her, opened her red lips slightly, and said in a soft and pleasant voice: "Hello, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Paimon stared at Ganyu with wide eyes, as if he had seen an old friend. He flew in front of Ganyu and said in surprise: "You are... Miss Ganyu? I really didn't expect to meet you here!"

Ganyu smiled slightly and nodded. That smile was like the spring sun, warm and bright.

She looked at Paimon and the other three and asked curiously, "Hello, I'm just relaxing. What are you doing here? Are you on a picnic?"

Paimon shook his head and said with a hint of disappointment, "No, Miss Ganyu. We are looking for wild colored lilies for the funeral ceremony. However, we searched for a long time and couldn't find any. Instead, we encountered the Pian Pian Flower, which can be used as a medicinal herb."

After saying that, she spread her hands to express her helplessness.

When Gan Yu heard the words "send the immortals to the funeral", she suddenly understood. She clapped her hands gently, with a hint of apology on her face: "So that's how it is. If you don't mind, I happen to have a freshly picked glass lily here."

As she spoke, Ganyu took out a crystal clear glazed lily with jade-like petals. The flower sparkled with a charming luster in the sun, as if it contained endless vitality and energy.

Ganyu gently handed the glazed lily to Paimeng, and Paimeng handed the glazed lily to Zhongli.

Zhongli quietly looked at the wild colored lily in front of him.

This flower is crystal clear, and there seems to be a faint light flowing on the petals, as dazzling as colored glaze.

He nodded slightly and expressed his gratitude to Ganyu beside him.

"Ms. Ganyu, obedience is worse than respect. I accept it."

Seeing this, Paimon blinked curiously and asked in confusion: "Mr. Zhongli, does this glass lily need singing to increase its fragrance?"

Zhongli smiled and shook his head, explaining: "This glazed lily has already reached the configuration of sending immortals to mourn, and there is no need to add any additional fragrance. Its beauty and fragrance are already enough to make people intoxicated."

Ganyu also added softly: "In fact, I have already sung Liyue's traditional folk song for this glass lily. I originally planned to keep it as a souvenir for myself, but since this is for the Emperor's funeral ceremony, I think it is more appropriate to take it out."

Shao Yun was listening at the side and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Ms. Gan Yu, what song are you singing?"

Ganyu thought for a moment and replied, "It's a traditional folk song from Liyue. It has a beautiful melody and the lyrics are full of profound meaning."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun jokingly said, "Haha, I thought it was because I sang so badly that Liuli Lily became a Liar Flower, haha."

Hearing this, Zhongli shook his head again and consoled him: "As long as it is a good song, it can make the glass lily emit fragrance. And, Mr. Shao Yun, don't underestimate yourself. Your singing voice is also very nice."

After hearing Zhong Li's words, Shao Yun felt relieved and laughed, "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Zhong Li."

Paimeng watched all this with anticipation in her eyes. She couldn't help but ask happily, "It looks like everything is almost ready. We should be able to hold the funeral ceremony tomorrow, right?"

Gan Yu stood quietly aside. When she heard the words "send off the immortals and hold funeral ceremonies", she frowned slightly and asked softly, "Can I ask how the arrangement of the venue is going?" There was a hint of nervousness and anticipation in her voice.

Zhongli raised his head, his eyes were deep and calm, as if he was thinking about something. He hesitated for a moment, then replied: "Basically everything is ready. If everything goes well, the ceremony of sending off the immortals can be held as scheduled tomorrow. Of course, even if there are some minor incidents, it will definitely not be later than the day after tomorrow."

After hearing this, Gan Yu sighed softly, a trace of melancholy appeared on her face. She looked into the distance, as if she saw the past years, the time she spent with the Emperor. She said slowly: "The Emperor's funeral ceremony, I never thought that there would be such a day, the Emperor would leave before us." Her voice was full of emotion and reluctance.

Just when several people were immersed in the sad atmosphere, Shao Yun took the opportunity to get the horse out.

Shao Yun looked at everyone and said with a smile: "Okay, let's save the sad words for the funeral ceremony. Now, do you need me and Ying to take you back?"

Gan Yu then noticed the two horses that Shao Yun had brought out. She widened her eyes and said in surprise, "This is..."

Her voice was full of surprise and curiosity, and she couldn't help but take a few steps closer to observe the two horses carefully.
