Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

One morning five days later, the sun was warm and pleasant at eight o'clock, and the soft light fell on the western outskirts of Liyue Harbor.

The sunlight at this time was gentle and bright, casting a faint golden glow on the Tianheng Mountain not far away.

The flowers planted in the yards of the houses at the foot of the mountain swayed gently in the breeze, emitting bursts of fragrance.

Occasionally, the clear chirping of birds penetrates the silence, adding a bit of vitality to this peaceful picture.

The air in the suburbs is filled with a fresh scent, which is refreshing.

After attending the banquet at Qun Yu Pavilion, Ying and Paimeng decided to send Shen He back to Ao Zang Mountain and stay with Shen He for a few days.

Shao Yun received a notice from Ye Lan that he needed to purchase some necessities according to her requirements.

Fortunately, it was Ye Lan's money that was spent. If it was Shao Yun's own money, he would most likely ride a horse to Mond and "rob" Miss Blanche's Mond department store again!

At this moment, Ye Lan was leaning against a big tree, tossing a dice made of water elements out of boredom to pass the time.

Her eyes casually scanned the surroundings and suddenly noticed Shao Yun walking towards her direction.

Ye Lan quickly put away the dice, waved her hand gently, and said, "Hey, Shao Yun, I'm here. Have you prepared a month's rations?"

Shao Yun walked quickly to Ye Lan, patted the Eastern Legend backpack on his waist, and said, "To be precise, one and a half months of rations are ready."

"But before that, let's talk about the reward."

When Ye Lan heard this, a speechless expression appeared on his face, and he said with emotion: "That's not the case. My commission hasn't even started yet, and you're in a hurry to discuss the reward?"

Shao Yun raised the corners of his mouth slightly, sneered, and responded slowly: "You have to let me know what the 'reward that satisfies me' is."

Ye Lan pointed to the road leading to the west and said with a smile: "Okay, let's talk while we walk. Can I lie to you?"

Shao Yun didn't say anything else, just whistled, and saw an Andalusian horse running from a distance.

This horse has light pink fur and a sturdy physique, and is worthy of the title of "King's Horse".

Ye Lan looked at the horse with great interest, admiration gleaming in her eyes.

She thought the two of them would share one horse. After all, a skinny horse wouldn't be able to carry two people at full speed.

Shao Yun looked at Ye Lan's expression and thought she was admiring his horse, but he didn't know that she wanted to sit behind him!

After Shao Yun rode on "Carrot", he subconsciously patted her neck.

Seeing Shao Yun getting on the horse, Ye Lan also planned to jump on the horse and sit behind Shao Yun.

However, Shao Yun did not intend to let Ye Lan sit behind him.

He sensed Ye Lan's intention, and skillfully manipulated his horse to move forward a few steps, causing Ye Lan's plan to fail and she to catch nothing.

Shao Yun turned his horse's head and his eyes fell on Ye Lan. She had a confused look on her face, and was obviously surprised by Shao Yun's behavior.

Shao Yun did not give Ye Lan any chance to explain, and began to speak in a slightly sarcastic tone: "Hey! What are you doing here? How come you are as shameless as a nun in Mond?"

At this time, in faraway Mond, Rosalia, the nun who always managed to cleverly skip the church choir, suddenly sneezed.

Ye Lan looked at Shao Yun's actions and her eyes widened in shock.

She first looked at the long road leading to the abyss, then looked at Shao Yun's horse, and finally pointed at herself and asked in disbelief: "You don't want to ride the horse and let me run over there!"

Shao Yun nodded seriously and answered concisely: "Yes, that's it."

Ye Lan found it unbelievable to hear that Shao Yun actually asked her to run such a long distance on her own two legs.

She looked at Shao Yun and couldn't help complaining, "You can't be so stingy. Yu Hengxing could sit behind you a week ago, so why can't I? What's wrong with me?"

Whenever Shao Yun recalled the night when he saved Keqing, he always felt an indescribable sense of depression and unhappiness in his heart.

Can the mentality be the same when being forced to save people and when saving people willingly?

"Why don't you cut off your legs and then I'll take you for a wheelchair ride?"

He said to Ye Lan in a sarcastic tone: "How big is your butt? You actually want to sit behind me? You are so lazy!"

When Ye Lan heard Shao Yun's sarcastic taunting, she became so angry that her face turned red.

She bit her lower lip tightly, a trace of shame and anger flashed in her eyes, and she was obviously very angry about such an insult.

She thought to herself, if she didn't know she couldn't beat him, she really would have wanted to beat him up so that he would know who his employer was!

After venting his emotions, Shao Yun began to explain why Ke Qing was able to sit behind him at that time.

"Keqing at that time looked like she was about to die. She had difficulty walking and was gasping for breath. If you were also about to die, I could make an exception and let you sit behind me."

After hearing Shao Yun's explanation, Ye Lan was speechless.

She tried to bargain, saying, "How about this, you let me sit behind you, and I can tell you some information about the Fatui on the way, how about that?"

However, Shao Yun was stubborn and answered uncompromisingly: "No, just run with your own two legs."

The nuns in Mondstadt can run, so what's the difference between you, Ye Lan? What's the difference between you and Ye Lan? Running at night can reduce the physical consumption by 20%?

After Ye Lan realized that she had said the wrong thing, she quickly changed the subject and focused on the time required to travel.

She cleverly guided him, "Oh, it takes a lot of time to travel. If we ride horses, we can reach the destination faster and complete the task earlier. Don't you want to see your girlfriend Ying earlier?"

I heard that it can save time and finish the work early.

Shao Yun was immediately tempted and answered readily: "Okay, I can let you ride my other horse."

After saying that, he blew a whistle, summoned his idle horse, and prepared to give it to Ye Lan to ride.

Ye Lan was really enlightened when she witnessed Shao Yun's rapid change in attitude.

She was curious about what kind of magic Ying had that made Shao Yun so fascinated.

Just ten seconds later, Ye Lan saw an ivory-white and gold Dutch Warmblood horse galloping towards them from afar.

Its fur gleams with a soft luster under the sunlight, which is eye-catching.

Even someone as experienced as Ye Lan couldn't help but reveal a rare look of amazement.

She exclaimed: "This golden horse is so beautiful, it gives people a very healthy and strong feeling."

If Ye Lan didn’t know that Shao Yun would not have any interest in her.

Just taking this matter into consideration, giving her such a good horse to ride, she really doubted whether he had any feelings for her.

After all, this horse is so beautiful!

When Shao Yun heard Ye Lan say the words "golden horse", he shouted "What!" in astonishment.

Then he quickly looked up and found that the horse was "Buel" belonging to Ying.

He hurriedly explained loudly: "I made a mistake. This is Ying's horse. I just blew the wrong whistle by accident."

This is the disadvantage of whistling. The process of calling the horse out is simple, but it is easy to blow the wrong whistle.

Just when Ye Lan was about to ride on Buel, Shao Yun drove him away without hesitation.

"Ying's horse, only Ying can ride it, no one else is allowed!" After saying that, he blew the whistle again, and the brown-red Boadicea came running over.

Shao Yun pointed at Boadicea and said to Ye Lan, "You can ride this girl. She's pretty good too!"

Ye Lan stared at the brown-red horse in front of her. Although it looked equally strong and powerful, it was obviously not as attractive as the ivory-white and gold horse.

Recalling Shao Yun's previous actions, Ye Lan couldn't help but twitch her lips helplessly, and said with emotion: "No, you are like this... You are so good to Ying, I am beginning to envy you."

Shao Yun rolled his eyes and responded unhappily: "Nonsense, if I don't treat Ying and Paimeng well, who else can I treat well? You can just envy them."

Then he reminded her in a "friendly" tone with a hint of joking: "I won't teach you how to ride a horse."

After all, you are of such a high status, Ye Lan, let me teach you how to ride a horse like I taught my father!

This contemptuous attitude made Ye Lan feel a little unhappy.

Ye Lan glanced at Shao Yun and responded nonchalantly: "Who asked you to teach me? Haven't you seen a pig run before you've eaten pork?"

After saying that, she jumped onto the horse's back easily and sat firmly on the saddle, her movements smooth and natural.

However, Boadicea immediately felt that the weight on his back was wrong.

She tilted her head and looked at Ye Lan on her back with her big eyes, examining the uninvited guest.

Then Yelan and Boadicea's eyes met.

Ye Lan was sure that this was the first time she clearly saw the word "shock" in Ma's eyes.

As expected, Boadicea discovered that the person riding on her back was not her familiar master Shao Yun, but a strange woman she had never seen before - Ye Lan.

This made Boadicea feel more angry than ever before.

She raised her front hooves suddenly, and her whole body began to shake violently, trying to throw Ye Lan off her back, as if to say, "You are not my master, I don't allow you to ride me!"

Seeing this, Ye Lan immediately realized that the horse wanted to throw her off, so she quickly hugged the horse's neck tightly and shouted in a panic: "What's wrong with you, horse! Why are you so fierce!"

Obviously Ye Lan had not expected the horse to have such a violent reaction.

Shao Yun stood aside, watching Ye Lan's funny scene, and said with interest: "This girl is not an ordinary horse, but a war horse, be careful."

Ye Lan hugged Boadicea's neck tightly and refused to let go.

Boadicea, on the other hand, displayed boundless energy, running, leaping, kicking, and struggling with all his might to shake off the stranger from his back.

She might even be yelling in her heart: "Who do you think you are? How dare you ride on me? Get off me now!"

However, Shao Yun finally couldn't stand it anymore. They had been making a fuss for five minutes!

He called out softly several times and succeeded in calming Boadicea down.

After hearing Shao Yun's voice, Boadicea turned his head to look at him, then let out a low neigh and finally stopped being restless.

Shao Yun looked at Boadicea, who was staring at him and digging the soil with her hooves helplessly. She looked just like an abandoned little girl.

He spread his hands helplessly, smiled bitterly and said: "There's nothing I can do. My wife's best friend doesn't like me riding you..."

As he spoke, Shao Yun gently patted the neck of the Andalusian horse "Luo Bo" under him, and continued helplessly: "Besides, we have to take this girl's feelings into consideration. We can't always keep Luo Bo locked up in the stable."

Finally, Shao Yun assured Boadicea: "How about this, from now on, you and Luobo will take turns riding him."

After hearing Shao Yun's assurance, Boadicea blew out a puff of hot air from his nose and wagged his tail, indicating that he had agreed.

Ye Lan covered her dizzy head, shook it dazedly, and complained to Shao Yun: "It would have been better if you calmed the horse down earlier. You wasted five minutes of our time."

Shao Yun looked at Ye Lan's miserable appearance and said jokingly, "Don't say bad things about this girl, and just be content. The girl under you doesn't like you very much."

After saying that, Boadicea let out a loud neigh, cooperating with Shao Yun.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lan glared at Shao Yun in dissatisfaction, then looked at Boadicea under him and muttered, “Hey, your horse is just like you, with a really weird temper.”
