Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 40 Qin's Private Request

Shao Yun rode his horse out of the winery and moved southwest.

Along the way, we passed several wineries and thought they were all Chenxi Winery.

But unfortunately, it is neither.

The reactions of the heads of various wineries were the same as the first Zuiyue Winery. They were excited at first, then disappointed, but they did not give up and finally pointed the way.

Having gone to several wrong wineries, Shao Yun couldn't help feeling annoyed and frowned.

After making so many mistakes, I have become experienced and will first take a look at the winery sign.

I passed by several small wineries, but still couldn't find the Dawn Winery. I muttered in dissatisfaction: "I'm really surprised, why are there so many wineries in the Blue Wind Plateau? This place is so big!"

Behind him, Ying and Paimeng looked a little unhappy. Because they had eaten too much in the morning and were not used to riding horses, they both looked a little uncomfortable at the moment.

Ying leaned on Shao Yun's back and said in a daze: "Thanks to your horse, Shao Yun, otherwise we would have to walk until midnight. Ugh..." After saying that, she couldn't help but dry heaving.

Paimeng leaned on Shao Yun's shoulder with a bitter look on his face, muttering: "I don't want to eat so much next time. It's really uncomfortable."

When Shao Yun heard what the two said, he turned around and looked at them, feeling a little helpless.

Fortunately, the horses slowed down when passing the first winery, allowing the two to feel a little more comfortable, otherwise they would have vomited right now.

After walking a few dozen steps forward, I met an adventurer who was transporting a cargo hot air balloon.

Shao Yun immediately stepped forward and asked, "Hello, where is the Chenxi Winery?"

The adventurer stopped and pointed behind him and said, "It's right in front of us. It's very close."

Shao Yun was delighted when he heard this. He quickly thanked him and continued to urge his horse forward.

We are finally reaching our destination! Ying and Paimon also heard the adventurer's words, and both of them showed anticipation.

He rode for a distance and climbed over a slope.

Shao Yun was stunned by the scene before him. He saw purple placens all over the mountains and plains...

Pah! All I saw were vineyards all over the hills, with lush grape racks extending out on the hillside, one after another, forming a spectacular sea of ​​grapes.

The size of this planting area is simply breathtaking. Shao Yun secretly marveled in his heart. This planting area is probably less than half of the total planting area of ​​all crops planted by the two major plantation families in Luozi Town.

Continuing along the road, they finally arrived at the door of the winery. Shao Yun dismounted and saw a sign with the words "Chenxi Winery" on it.

Shao Yun said excitedly: "Yes, that's right, this is the Dawn Winery!"

Standing in front of the door of Chenxi Winery, one's eyes can't help but be attracted by the magnificent building.

Looking closely at this house, it is completely different from the previous wineries. Master Diluk's house is as big as a castle.

I secretly sighed in my heart: "Oh my God, Diluk is so rich!"

The manor is full of grandeur, simplicity and nobility. The exterior wall of the house is made of exquisite stone bricks, which exude a simple and solemn charm over the years. There are also green vines climbing up, adding a touch of vitality to the manor.

The architectural style is similar to those residential areas in Mondstadt, simple yet elegant.

The dark wooden doors and windows look both stable and elegant. The roof is covered with dark red tiles.

The lines of the building are smooth and simple, without too much decoration, but it reveals a noble temperament everywhere.

The spacious courtyard is planted with Mond's characteristic plants, such as windmill chrysanthemums and gentian.

Shao Yun took in the entire layout of the outside of the house, and his heart was filled with envy and admiration.

"This manor is built like a castle,"

It was comparable to the house at Brightwhite Manor in Rhodes, but alas, that manor burned down, and the gold bars and brooch were taken away and I have never visited it again.

Ying and Paimeng got off their horses. They had seen this place before when they opened the teleportation anchor point. The first time, they were stunned for a long time just like Shao Yun, but the second time they saw it was not as shocking as before.

Ying covered her forehead and gave her own evaluation: "It does look big, but it's a little smaller than the Knights' Headquarters."

At this time, a maid-like person came out of the manor. She was wearing a neat uniform and had a friendly smile on her face. She welcomed them, "Hello, welcome to the Dawn Winery."

She looked at Ying and Paimon, then said, "Judging from their looks, these two are the famous Honor Knight and Paimon." Her voice was gentle and pleasant, making people feel at home.

Then, she turned her gaze to Shao Yun, and after taking a closer look, she said, "You must be the man as strong as a giant bear that Master Diluk mentioned. I didn't believe it then, but now I am convinced."

After listening to Diluk's description of himself from the maid, Shao Yun chose to interpret it as a compliment.

"I didn't expect that Master Diluk would describe me as this kind of person."

The maid standing in front of him looked at him with a faint smile on her lips.

“Master Diluk seldom praises others. Being strong is also a plus for men.” She said softly, her tone revealing a hint of respect and awe for Master Diluk.

After speaking, the maid's eyes wandered carefully over the horse's body, as if she was appreciating every detail of the horse.

"It's been a long time since I've seen such a good horse. It really opened my eyes."

Her words were concise but full of enthusiasm. It was obvious that she had a high level of appreciation for horses. There was even an impulse in her words to buy the horse.

Shao Yun noticed her tone and responded with a smile: "Thank you for the compliment, but I will never sell my horse." His words revealed his deep affection for the horse.

After hearing this, the maid replied calmly: "Don't worry, I won't take away someone else's loved one." Her voice was calm and composed, and she also saw through Shao Yun's thoughts.

Then, she pointed to a stable in the distance that had not been used for a long time and said, "The stable is over there. I will send someone to take care of it."

After settling the horses, Shao Yun entered the winery's house.

When I walked into the house, I found that the maids of Master Diluk were taking care of Ying and Paimon, who were lying on the sofa with a bad look on their faces.

Seeing Shao Yun come in, a maid nodded and told him not to worry.

This is neither an injury nor a disease, it's just motion sickness from eating too much, no, horse sickness. The supplements I made didn't help at all.

This can only provide a quiet environment to recover on your own.

However, Ying and Paimon will probably recover soon under the care of the maid.

So he sat on the sofa next to the two of them, quietly waiting for Master Diluk to return.

……

As night falls, the lights in the winery gradually light up.

In the darkness of night, Master Diluk appeared at the door of the winery.

He walked into the house and saw Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng who had recovered. He said expressionlessly, "I thought you would come back at night."

Shao Yun looked at Diluc, and stood up involuntarily, complaining: "Master Diluc, your manor is really far away. Do you have to travel back and forth so hard every day?"

Master Diluk replied nonchalantly: "It's OK. As long as we run at full speed, it should be there in an hour." His words revealed that he was accustomed to long-distance travel.

Facing Master Diluk's casual answer, Shao Yun couldn't help but sigh: "You have a really good physique."

"I think you're not bad either."

The two of them chatted with each other for a while, and then Captain Qin also came to the manor.

As soon as Captain Qin entered the room, she greeted everyone warmly: "Master Diluk, Honorary Knight, Paimon, and Shao Yun, hello everyone."

Diluk stretched out a hand, palm facing up, and gently pointed to a chair beside him, motioning for Qin to sit down.

"Well, sit down and rest."

Qin nodded slightly, walked lightly to the chair and sat down gracefully.

"Now all that's missing is that drunkard poet."

A few minutes later, the door was gently pushed open, and Wendy walked in with a faint aroma of apple cider. He was holding a half-finished bottle of cider in his hand, and said with an apologetic smile, "Sorry, I'm late."

Diluk looked like he had a headache.

"Where did you go to have a good drink again?" he joked, but there was no blame in his eyes.

Wendy chuckled, waved the cider in her hand, and said, "Oh, I've found a way to save Twarin, so I indulged myself a little, hehe."

Now that everyone was gathered, Wendy told them her plan.

"In summary, we need more Tevarin's tears to revitalize the Skyharp. This is the key to saving Tevarin."

Wendy then pointed out three places where Tevarin's tears could be found.

The first is the Temple of Thousand Winds, followed by the Eagle Gate Secret Realm in Dadaupa Valley and the Hilliard Tribe.

The first two are relatively safe. One is the Hillichul tribe in Dadaupa Valley. You have to break in directly. Although the Hillichul people are weak, there are huge Hillichul thugs and Hillichul shamans who can use elemental power.

It is full of risks and is a tough nut to crack.

After listening to Wendy's description, Shao Yun volunteered without thinking. "What are you waiting for? I'll go to the most dangerous Dadaupa Valley Hill Tribe, and you guys go deal with the other two places."

Just as Shao Yun had volunteered to go to the Qiuqiu tribe to investigate, Captain Qin thought of something important. She immediately stopped him with a hint of urgency in her voice: "Wait a moment."

Captain Qin's gaze fell on Shao Yun, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

He seemed to be weighing something, then turned around and pulled Ying aside.

The two stood in the corner, talking in low voices. Although their voices were small, they revealed a hint of solemnity.

Captain Qin frowned, as if thinking about some difficult problem, while Ying listened attentively, nodding from time to time to show his understanding.

Shao Yun stood there, looking at them with some confusion, as if they were discussing something important.

After a while, Captain Qin and Ying ended their conversation.

Qin walked over and looked at Shao Yun, with an apologetic expression on her face: "Shao Yun, I have something to tell you."

"Go ahead, I'm listening." Although he was a little confused, Shao Yun still showed enough patience.

Captain Qin took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

"I discussed this with Ying and I'd like to state in advance that you can catch the strange bird, so your strength is beyond doubt. I'm not looking down on you, it's just that you have too much combat power, and you shouldn't..."

Shao Yun looked at Captain Qin and couldn't help feeling a little impatient.

He was not a person who liked to beat around the bush. He clearly remembered that he had once told Captain Qin that speaking directly was the best way to communicate.

However, it now seems that Captain Qin did not take his advice to heart.

Shao Yun tried his best to make his tone sound calm and firm: "I said, if you have something to say, please speak directly, the effect will be better."

After this reminder, Qin finally got to the point.

"I have a personal commission that I would like to ask of you."

Shao Yun nodded, motioning for her to continue.

"I, Senior Diluk, and the Honor Knights will be away for a few days. Mondstadt's strength has been further weakened, so I would like to ask you to help me protect Mondstadt during my absence. I'm afraid..."

Qin's eyes were filled with deep worry and uneasiness, and she didn't dare to speak directly to the person in front of her.

Shao Yun saw this and understood a little bit, so he directly brought up the topic: "Are you worried that the Fatui will take advantage of the opportunity to seize the city defense?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the eyes of the group leader Qin flickered even more. She bit her lower lip lightly and whispered.

"Yes, I don't look down on you..." She said in a dissembling way, with a tremor in her voice. She tried to explain, trying to be more tactful.

"Like Senior Diluk said before, if the Fatui..." Her voice became smaller and smaller, as if she was avoiding something, afraid that Shao Yun would misunderstand.

But there is no problem with this. Someone has to look after the home. If the home is robbed it will be a big disaster. It makes sense that I am the strongest.

Shao Yun turned his gaze to Ying and saw her nod slightly, indicating that she also agreed with Captain Qin's opinion.

"I understand. Leave it to me. As I said before, please speak directly next time."

Qin felt relieved when she heard Shao Yun agreed to her request. She let out a breath and felt her shoulders lighten.

However, just when Qin thought everything had been arranged, Shao Yun suddenly changed the subject and his tone became serious and cold.

"Let me make it clear that I am not a nice guy. If the Fatui dare to do anything desperate, I will kill all the Fatui in Mondstadt. Do you understand?"

Qin suddenly raised her head and looked into Shao Yun's murderous eyes, her heart trembling.

After hearing what Shao Yun said, Shihuaqin felt a little regretful.

But on second thought, if the Fatui really turned against them and attempted to forcibly take over the defense of Mondstadt, then they would not be diplomats but spies, and it would make sense to kill them.

"Okay, but there is one thing. If the Fatui don't do anything to cause a fallout, don't do it. This is my only request."

That makes a lot of sense, exactly what Shao Yun thought.

"I won't fire the first shot, but I promise that the Fatui won't be able to fire the second shot."
