Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 188 Longji Snow Mountain

Shao Yun and his companions rode their horses at full speed, leaving a trail of shadows along the waterside of Dihuazhou. The sound of horse hooves and the sound of waves lapping against the shore intertwined into a hurried melody of escape.

Behind them, the roars and footsteps of the abyss army surged like a tide, and in front of them, the figures of the hillbillies rushed out from every corner like ghosts, trying to surround them.

Every time Shao Yun pulled the trigger of the pump-action shotgun, an enemy fell.

It was as if we were back in the days of the great Blackwater robbery, with Pinkerton pursuers all around.

Thanks to Shao Yun's extraordinary marksmanship and the extreme speed of his horse, he, Ying, Paimon and Dainsleb temporarily found a chance to breathe in the desperate chase.

When they came to the main road where Guiliyuan and Wangshu Inn intersected, Shao Yun suddenly tightened the reins and stopped the horse.

He knew that it was dangerous to stop at this moment, but it was more dangerous to flee blindly. He needed time to think and find a way out of the predicament.

"Go north to Mondstadt?" Shao Yun thought to himself, "Perhaps we can rely on that indestructible city wall to reenact the glory of the Battle of Orleans during the Hundred Years' War. But can that demon show up in time like Joan of Arc?"

"Or, go south to Liyue Harbor?" Another thought flashed through his mind, "Find a ship and look for a paradise like Tahiti? But all of Teyvat has become a red zone, is this possible?"

Time was running out and Shao Yun frowned. He could only force himself to make a quick decision during this brief pause.

However, the pace of the abyss army did not slow down. They approached step by step like hungry beasts.

"Shao Yun!" Dainsleb's voice was filled with anxiety. "Where on earth are we going? Those abyss monsters are getting closer and closer!"

Shao Yun took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm: "I know! Give me a few more seconds! I must find a feasible plan!"

Then Shao Yun pursed his lips and called out anxiously in his heart.

"I need you, System! Get out here right now! You promised to help me!"

The system heard his call, and the interface responded quickly, awaiting his instructions.

Looking around, Shao Yun was well aware that his current situation was fraught with danger and even a moment of peace was a luxury.

He said to the system in a deep voice: "I need a relatively safe place where I can calm down and think of countermeasures!"

The system then displayed a line of text.

[In 1899, the era of gunslingers and outlaws has come to an end.]

After Shao Yun finished reading, he was filled with anger. What was the point of this passage? He almost asked the system a barrage of questions.

But his thoughts suddenly changed direction, and this text seemed to contain a mystery.

"Blackwater Town, bank robbery, escape in the snowy mountains..." These key words flashed quickly through Shao Yun's mind, and a thought flashed through his mind like lightning.

Shao Yun gazed at the distant and majestic Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain.

The top of the snow-capped mountain is covered with white snow.

He thought of how the Van der Linde gang used the cover of the snow-capped mountains to cleverly escape the pursuit of Pinkerton detectives.

Now, he can also rely on the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain to fight the pursuing abyss army to the end.

"Are you referring to the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain?" Shao Yun muttered to himself, with a determined light in his eyes, "That may be the place where I can escape from the predicament and seek life."

This thought guided him towards the snow-capped mountains.

The system did not give any response, but Shao Yun already had a clear answer in his mind.

He turned around abruptly, facing everyone, and shouted, "Everyone listen to me, our only way out now is to pass through Mingyun Town and head straight to Longji Snow Mountain!"

However, Dainsreb, who was at the rear, raised a practical question.

"Are you really going to do this? But I see that you don't seem to have prepared enough warm clothes..." There was a hint of worry in his tone, and he was obviously worried about the upcoming severe cold weather.

He is not afraid of the cold, but Ying, Paimeng and Shao Yun are wearing thin clothes.

Shao Yun knew that time was running out and there was no time to waste.

He interrupted Dainsleb's concerns and urged: "Don't worry, I have some warm clothes here for emergency. The Abyss Army has caught up with us, we don't have time to hesitate! Everyone must follow me, this is our only chance of survival!"

Encouraged by him, Ying, Paimon and Dainsleb had no time to think and followed Shao Yun towards the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain.

Shao Yun and others rode their horses westward at a gallop. The sound of horses' hooves roared and dust flew up like a strong wind sweeping across the earth.

They came to a rickety wooden bridge, the bridge had long since broken, with a shocking chasm across the middle.

Riding on the loyal "Buel", Ying glanced ahead with sharp eyes and hurriedly reminded: "The bridge ahead is broken! We have to think of another way!"

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun looked at him with a sharp gaze and shouted firmly, "Don't be afraid, just jump over on your horse!"

Before he finished speaking, Boadicea under him took the lead, sprinted, and all four hooves flew into the air, drawing a perfect arc, and landed steadily on the other side.

Ying was not willing to be left behind, she held the reins tightly, and saw "Buel" accelerate instantly, soaring into the air, like an eagle spreading its wings, lightly crossed the broken bridge and landed steadily.

Dainsleb, also riding the Andalusian horse "Rou", followed closely behind and completed this thrilling leap.

The pursuing Hilichurls stopped when they saw this; they couldn't swim, and couldn't jump over.

So the hillil thugs in the abyss army, like the "giant zombies" in PVZ, treated the ordinary hillil people as "little devil zombies" and threw them to the other side.

Seeing this, Shao Yun took advantage of this brief gap, turned around quickly, raised the cowboy revolver in his hand, and started a game of Frisbee.

With the crisp sound of gunshots, the thrown hillbillies returned to the earth one by one, and even the ferocious hillbilly thugs were not spared.

This sudden counterattack temporarily slowed down the Hillil people's pursuit.

The four took the opportunity to speed up and prepare to rush into the abandoned mining town ahead - Mingyun Town.

This reminded Shao Yun of the Lidao Village, but it was not safe there and he couldn't rest there!

Mingyun Town, a once prosperous mining town, is now deserted, as if it were a corner forgotten by time.

In the center of the town, the huge mine that once roared and bred countless wealth has become a stagnant pool.

The town was empty. The Hillbillies who originally occupied the place became extremely agitated at the strange call of the Abyss Mage. They waved simple wooden sticks, let out low growls, and rushed out to intercept Shao Yun and others.

However, Mingyun Town is a small town built around a mine, and the roads are difficult to navigate. It would take a long time to intercept Shao Yun and others.

Shao Yun, Ying, Paimeng and Dainsleib cleverly used the time difference and rushed into Mingyun Town.

The four did not stay in the abandoned town for long. They immediately rode through the town and ran out from the north exit.

Shao Yun saw a winding stream, which originated from the distant Longji Snow Mountain. The stream was clear and cold, like a silver ribbon.

Just follow this stream and you can enter the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain!

So Shao Yun led everyone, riding horses, and moved upstream along the river.

When the four were about to step into the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, Dainsleb realized Shao Yun's plan.

"Wait a minute, Shao Yun, are you sure you want to enter the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain?" His tone revealed deep worry.

Shao Yun tightened the reins to stop the horse, then turned to look at Dainsleib.

"We have no other choice now. This is the only way, believe me!"

Hearing this, Dainsleb sighed softly. He turned his head to look at the gathering abyss army in the distance, and reminded again.

"I know what you are thinking. The earth veins of the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain are very chaotic, which will interfere with the pursuit of the Abyss Cult to a certain extent. But once we leave the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, they will immediately locate us!"

"Once we enter the snowy mountains, it will be very difficult to get out. We are like locking ourselves in a cage!"

When Shao Yun heard Dainsleib's doubts, he took a deep breath and said firmly: "Believe me! No matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as we work together and face it bravely, all difficulties will be trampled under our feet. These setbacks are just thorns on the road to success, and they cannot stop us from moving forward."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Abyss Mages in the distance, with a huge army of Hillilians, came rushing in like a tide, aiming directly at Shao Yun and his group.

The situation was critical and urgent, Shao Yun made a quick judgment. He turned to look at Ying beside him, his tone filled with unquestionable firmness.

"There's no time to change clothes now. Ying, button up your coat! Just be patient! We have to enter the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain immediately and find a safe place before making any plans."

Ying heard this, without any hesitation, quickly buttoned up his coat, followed Shao Yun's steps, and rushed towards the depths of the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain. Dainsleb followed closely behind.

After entering the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, the chaotic earth veins formed a natural barrier, instantly causing the Abyss Mages to lose their trace.

The Abyss Army stood on the edge of the snow-capped mountains, looking at the white snow-capped mountains.

A Water Abyss Mage whispered to himself: "Your Highness, we will do everything we can to find you!"
