Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

After hearing Shao Yun's assurance, Qin's tense nerves finally relaxed. She let out a long breath, a grateful smile appeared on her face, and her eyes were full of trust and admiration for Shao Yun.

"Thank you very much, Shao Yun." Qin's voice was soft and sincere. "Because this is a private commission, I really can't give you the same title and treatment as Ying. But please believe that I will do my best to think of something else to repay you."

Shao Yun shook his head, indicating that he didn't care about these.

"One title of honorary knight is enough. Any more is worthless. As for gratitude, a gift of goose feathers from a thousand miles away is more valuable than the sentiment behind it."

In fact, the most important thing is the honorary title. I would like to criticize the Fontaine Academy of Sciences by name. The titles of honorary researchers are so common that they cannot even get a loan from the Northland Bank.

Qin was so moved after listening to it that she didn't know what to say. Words were no longer able to describe it.

Shao Yun didn't care about Qin's silence. He sat aside and began to plan how to protect Mond.

Thinking about various possible situations and countermeasures, and how to mobilize and utilize existing resources to deal with possible dangerous situations.

After figuring out an idea in his mind, he looked up at Jean and said, "I think we should focus on four places: Mondstadt's entrance and exit. In addition to the main gate, I remember there is also a small gate, as well as the waterway of the port. As well as the Fatui's residence, the Goethe Hotel, Kaeya can..."

When Qin heard Shao Yun say that he wanted to send the Knights to fight, she quickly reminded him:

"Um, Shao Yun, this is a private commission..."

Shao Yun didn't understand what Qin meant, so he asked, "I know it's a private commission, what's wrong?"

As soon as Qin saw Shao Yun's expression, she knew that Shao Yun didn't understand at all, so she explained word by word.

"That's right. I'm asking you to protect Mondstadt in Jean's personal name while Captain Jean is away. That Captain Jean didn't tell the rest of the Knights, so no one is helping you..."

No one is helping me and I have to watch four places by myself?

Shao Yun asked in disbelief: "So, I am the only one in charge of the four places: the main city gate, the small side gate, the port waterway, and the Goethe Hotel?"

Facing Shao Yun's eyes full of doubt and disbelief, Qin's heart couldn't help but tremble slightly. She hurriedly turned her head away to avoid the sharp gaze.

It's the default.

Shao Yun was so frightened that he was confused. These were four places. He was very strong, but not so strong that he could split himself into two. How could he possibly follow them all at the same time!

Qin saw Shao Yun's hesitation and was afraid that he would go back on his word, so she quickly said, "You've promised me, you can't go back on your word!"

These words choked Shao Yun's words. A real man's word is as good as his bond. A man should keep his dignity just like a tree should keep its bark!

"I won't go back on my word. I will definitely do what I promised you."

Shao Yun took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and decided to challenge his limits.

Master Guan Diluk asked for a map of Mondstadt and analyzed how to guard and monitor these four places, just like studying how to rob a bank.

Finally, I came up with two solutions.

The first is a mobile tactic, whereby one rides a horse and patrols back and forth in these four places, taking advantage of the horse's speed, and can quickly arrive at any place if something happens.

The other method is to catch the turtle in a jar. Mondstadt's main city gate, side gate, and waterway to the port are close to each other. As long as you go up the city wall and look down from a high place, even if the Fatui in the city make trouble, as long as they cannot take over the defense of the city wall, it will be fine.

After much thought, I chose the second method.

After all, the omnipotent five-star general once said the six-word mantra, "Hit high and hit low, hit SB."

"By the way, Captain Qin!" Shao Yun stretched out his hand to signal Qin, asking her to look at his side.

"What's wrong?" Qin looked at Shao Yun, as if she suddenly realized something. "You said you can't regret it!"

Shao Yun's movements were filled with a hint of helplessness and fatigue, and he waved his hand gently.

"Am I the kind of treacherous and fickle person in your eyes?" Shao Yun's voice carried a hint of self-mockery.

"I have thought of a way," Shao Yun continued, revealing a hint of confidence in his tone, "but I need a city defense pass that allows me to climb the city wall."

As soon as he finished speaking, a hint of surprise and curiosity flashed in Qin's eyes.

She looked at Shao Yun, wanting to know what this method was and why a city defense pass was needed to access the city wall.

Seeing Qin's puzzled expression, Shao Yun gave a detailed explanation.

"Either I patrol these four places on horseback, or I go up to the city wall and look down from above. I choose the latter and observe from the city wall, so I need a city defense pass."

After listening to the plan, Qin focused on the word "horse".

"Horse? Shao Yun, do you have a horse?"

Shao Yun pointed his finger out the window, his eyes falling on the quiet stable.

"It's right outside the door in the stable. Didn't you see it when you came?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a glimmer of sudden enlightenment flashed in Qin's eyes. She opened her mouth slightly and said in surprise: "That horse is yours! I thought it belonged to Senior Diluk!"

Diluk was listening nearby, also showing a confused expression. He frowned and looked out the window at the stable, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

"Ah, there are horses in that long-abandoned stable?"

At this moment, Wendy also came over, with a curious light in his eyes, and said, "I thought it was Captain Qin's treasured BMW!"

Jean, Diluk and Venti exchanged glances, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding.

Almost at the same time, the three of them rushed to where Shao Yun's horse was like arrows.

This scene stunned Shao Yun. It was okay for Venti, but Jiumengzi was curious about everything. But why did Captain Qin and Diluk go out to see it? Hadn’t they seen horses?

After a few minutes, the three men came back, and without exception, they gave sincere praise to Shao Yun's horse.

"Shao Yun, your horse is only comparable to the horse of Grand Commander Falja."

"It reminds me of my old horse, but unfortunately..."

"Shao Yun, where did you catch it? Even in Mondstadt it's hard to see a light pink horse. This is a rare thing!"

Under normal circumstances, if the three of them praised him like this, Shao Yun would be so happy that he could go to heaven, but now...

Shao Yun stretched out his hand, looked at Qin firmly, and said helplessly, "Can you please give me the city defense pass?"

After saying this, he bent his fingers slightly twice, waiting for Qin's response.

Qin lowered her head slightly, with a hint of apology in her voice.

"The official seal of the Order is kept at the Order's headquarters, and I don't have it on hand right now. However, I can write you a temporary pass with my personal seal, which should have the same effect."

As she spoke, Qin borrowed Diluc's quill and a blank note card and began to write seriously.

After writing, she took out a small seal from her body and gently stamped a bright red mark on the card.

Shao Yun took the temporary pass handed over by Qin, read the contents carefully, and then nodded to show his satisfaction.

Although this city defense pass is not stamped with the official seal of the Knights Templar, it should be sufficient with Qin's personal seal.

Everything that needs to be prepared has been completed, and everyone is ready to go directly to find the Wind Dragon's Tears.

Shao Yun led his horse out of the stable and joked to Diluk, "I thought we would rest at Master Diluk's house for a night."

Diluk replied nonchalantly, "If you want to rest for a night, I can ask the head maid Adeline to prepare a room for you. You can get back to Mondstadt quickly on horseback anyway."

It's just a joke. It doesn't make sense for everyone to work while I'm the only one resting. I'm not Wendy.

"No, I will ride my horse to take Ying and Paimon to the Mondstadt Bridge, and then go back to Mondstadt to stand guard."

Diluk thought of something and pointed to a warehouse not far away: "I remember there is a carriage in the warehouse, we can..." There was a hint of concern in his voice, and he was obviously considering the efficiency and safety of the entire team.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Shao Yun stood in front of the horse without thinking and opened his arms.

"Don't even think about it. If I let my carrot pull the cart, I would rather put the rope on myself and pull the cart to take you to your destination."

Diluk didn't expect Shao Yun to love his horse so much. He couldn't help but sigh: "You really love your horse."

Shao Yun turned around and patted the horse's neck: "Of course."

Just as he was about to mount his horse, he suddenly thought of something, and hurried to Ying and Paimeng, suggesting, "I'll give you and Paimeng a ride."

However, Ying shook her head gently and politely declined Shao Yun's kindness. She smiled and said, "Oh, that's not necessary. I'd better go with everyone."

There was no reluctance or uneasiness in her tone, as if she genuinely didn't want to ride.

Shao Yun looked at Ying, feeling somewhat puzzled. It was not that he did not understand Ying's refusal. How comfortable is riding a horse? He asked softly, "Are you worried that Jean, Diluk, and Venti will be unhappy?"

Ying sighed softly and explained, "It's not because I'm afraid of not fitting in, but I almost vomited when I was riding a horse during the day, so..."

There was a hint of helplessness and embarrassment in her words, as she recalled that unpleasant experience.

After hearing this, Shao Yun immediately understood Ying's concerns. He smiled softly and said, "So that's why. Well, after we solve the problem with Tewarin, how about I teach you how to ride a horse?"

"We'll talk about it then."

Putting aside the matter of teaching Ying how to ride a horse, I had originally planned to give Ying and Paimeng some private lessons when I sent them off.

But now that they have to say goodbye at Diluk’s Dawn Winery, I can only send him off openly.

Shao Yun took out two new bottles of carefully matched magic supplements from his bag. Although they were still in green bottles, they looked like fake medicine.

Ying looked at the potion handed over by Shao Yun helplessly. A painful expression appeared on her face as she recalled yesterday's adventure.

I was a little tired at the time, so I took a sip of this medicine. It tasted very unpleasant. For the whole day afterwards, there was a faint bitter taste when I swallowed my saliva.

"Huh? I haven't finished the one given to Paimon and me last time."

Ying wanted to refuse, but Shao Yun stuffed it directly into her hand.

Shao Yun raised his hand slightly, shook his fingers gently, and said with a bit of pride in his tone: "This is not the bitter medicine from before, it has been specially improved!"

Ying asked curiously, "How do you improve it?"

I thought to myself that as long as I didn’t feel bitterness when I drank water for three days, it would be fine.

The smug look on Shao Yun's face became even more pronounced, and he smiled wickedly.

"I also added sweet flowers, lotus and all-purpose mint to the potion this time. This way, not only will it taste stronger, but the effect will also last longer."

"And it's no longer a case of water being bitter after three days. Now it's a potion that makes water bitter after seven days!"

Shao Yun's carefully matched magical supplement: completely restores health, stamina and Death Eye, and greatly enhances it. (Level 3 Enhancement)

However, after listening to Shao Yun's introduction, Ying almost fainted. The bitter taste on her tongue had not yet dissipated. If she drank this new potion again, she estimated that she would not be able to taste anything else when eating in the future.

Looking at the medicine in Shao Yun's hand, his heart was filled with fear and confusion.

Shao Yun looked at Ying's unhappy expression, patted her head lightly and said, "Good medicine tastes bitter, I won't give it to others even if they want it!"

Ying was patted by Shao Yun and rubbed her head in pain, but she also understood Shao Yun's good intentions and reluctantly put away the potion.

Because we are going to invade the Hilliard tribe in Dadaupa Valley, medicine alone is not enough, we also need suitable weapons!

Shao Yun deliberately stuffed four sticks of explosives in, which means that Yingmei is most suitable for using a one-handed sword according to her setting. Otherwise, he would have given her his cowboy revolver as well.

Ying held four thick sticks of explosives tightly in her hands, her face full of fear, as if the explosives would explode at any time.

There was an uneasy gleam in his eyes and a frown on his brow, as if he was trying hard to think whether such equipment was really necessary.

"Not really. It won't be useful against those Hilichurls!" There was a slight tremor in Ying's voice. It was obvious that she was very uneasy about the equipment in front of her.

Shao Yun thought this was necessary, because God knows what kind of accident might happen!

"It's called being prepared! We can't let our guard down. I've learned my lesson. I must be fully prepared at all times."

After saying that, he looked at Paimeng next to him. This little emergency food was blinking his eyes, looking at the four sticks of dynamite in Ying's hand with a confused look on his face.

Suddenly he thought of something, took out two sunset fruits from his backpack and stuffed them into Paimeng's hands.

"The fruits that fell today are the biggest and best ones I picked in the past two days. Paimeng, just be responsible for eating them." Shao Yun said, his tone full of pampering.

Paimon looked at the big and sweet sunset fruit, and immediately his eyes were full of stars. He took the fruit excitedly and started to eat it. He made a satisfied gurgling sound while eating.

Then he said happily: "Hehe, Shao Yun you are so nice to me!"
