The immortal body is called Teevat

Chapter 29 I was betrayed twice

After resting for a night, everyone in the caravan was in high spirits and seemed to have no problem continuing their journey.

They first fed the horses with the best grass, then checked whether the goods were lost or damaged. After finishing these tasks, it was their turn to have breakfast.

The chef who accompanied them had prepared a simple but hearty breakfast while they were feeding the horses and checking the supplies, and was waiting for these people to come and take it.

These people gathered and began to take their breakfast in an orderly manner. After breakfast, they continued to rush to the Dawn Winery.

Their breakfast is basically a few fried steaks and fried eggs with a few pieces of Mond's special fisherman's toast. Although the breakfast is simple, it is also very nutritious.

Of course, Wu Cheng and these children are no exception. Although the aura around them is still ominous, they are guests brought by Master Cripps himself after all, so the head of the caravan naturally cannot neglect these children.

The children slept much better last night than they had on the cold ground. They all looked full of energy, unlike yesterday when they looked like eggplants hit by frost.

They looked at such a sumptuous breakfast, but they did not wolf it down like they did yesterday. Instead, they chewed it carefully to savor it, and the amount they ate was not as exaggerated as the big meal yesterday.

Because the children had already eaten a lot of delicious food yesterday, they also satisfied their cravings, so there was no need to rush to wolf down the food today.

What's more, there were many adults around who were eating. If they wolfed down the food at this time, it would be embarrassing in front of these adults.

After enjoying this extremely sumptuous breakfast, under the command of the caravan leader, the adults began to dismantle the tents, extinguish the campfire, pack up and prepare to get on the bus and continue on their journey.

After finishing their hearty breakfast, the children took the initiative to get back into their two carriages and wait for the caravan to depart.

Ke Lai was quite energetic. He pulled Wu Cheng's arm and asked, "Brother, did you not sleep again last night?"

Wu Cheng nodded and said, "Of course I didn't sleep. I have a special physique. I don't need to sleep at all!"

Ke Lai continued to ask: "Brother, what did you do last night? You can't just keep watching the fire like you have done in the past ten days."

Wu Cheng was so upset when he heard what Ke Lai said that he reached out and began to rub Ke Lai's head and said, "No way, is this how your brother looks like to you? There are people on night watch in the caravan, so why would you need me?"

Ke Lai pushed Wu Cheng's hand away and said, "Brother, please stop touching my head. What did you do last night?"

Wu Cheng replied: "I, your brother, am practicing martial arts every day. When your martial arts reach the pinnacle, the Fatui will be destroyed in a snap."

After hearing what Wu Cheng said, Ke Lai's eyes were filled with disdain, and he even rolled his eyes at Wu Cheng. To put it bluntly, Ke Lai just didn't believe what Wu Cheng said.

Wu Cheng saw this and thought, since Ke Lai didn't let him touch his head, he would pinch her soft face as a punishment.

So Wu Cheng moved his sinful hand down and pinched her face. Cheng commented that Kelai's face felt pretty good to pinch. Of course, it would definitely feel better if there was a little more flesh.

Ke Lai directly knocked away Wu Cheng's hand that was pinching his face and rubbed Wu Cheng's hair with both hands. Ke Lai rubbed it frantically and turned it from a hedgehog head into a mess.

The brother and sister were playing happily together, neither of them giving in to the other. At this time, the caravan had finished their breakfast, and the entire caravan set off to continue heading towards the Dawn Winery.

Along the way, except for the children from Mond who had no interest in seeing the scenery, the children from other countries were looking at the plains and woods on the mountains of Mond with great interest, giving a sense of the contrast between tourists and locals.

Wu Cheng, like those Mondstadt kids, was not very interested in sightseeing, because he had visited this map in Mondstadt quite a lot when he was playing Genshin Impact, and he was tired of seeing it.

The sun was setting as fast as the Paimon Clock, and before they knew it, it was about to set. Their caravan had already found a new place to stay and was setting up camp.

The caravan set up their tents, lit a campfire, and took out a barrel of Mond beer from a carriage. Then each of them took their own wooden beer mug and began to drink happily.

The children in Wucheng naturally did not have such a good fortune. They could only eat a huge pot of stewed meat with northern apples and a radish and vegetable soup, and watch the adults drinking and going crazy.

At this time, Diluk came over with a plate of something piled high and handed it to Wu Cheng, saying to him, "I just borrowed the ingredients from the chef and made this myself. This is for you."

Wu Cheng took the pile of cakes made by Diluc and said to Diluc, "Thank you for the pile of cakes."

It is still a combination of multiple roasted steaks and cheese. There is plenty of cheese sandwiched between every two steaks, and a small calendula fruit is placed on top as a garnish and a means of relieving greasiness, making the whole dish look quite delicious.

Wu Cheng had seen this dish a lot in his previous life. To be more precise, it should be called Mondstadt's Past. He ate this a lot when he was playing dungeons during the early stages of the land reclamation.

This time I was able to eat the real version given by Diluk, and I felt a little secretly happy.

After delivering the pile of gifts, Diluk did not leave. Instead, he sat in the circle formed by the children and said, "No need to thank me. Just consider it as the payment for listening to my stories and practicing with me these days."

Wu Cheng replied while eating the Mondstadt Past that Diluk had prepared for him, "Okay, whatever you want. I'll tell you the story after I finish this pile of food."

Wu Cheng quickly devoured the stacked buns made by Diluk, and finally put the fruit of the small lamp grass into his mouth to chew it. Immediately, the special greasy feeling in his mouth was relieved a lot.

After that, Wu Cheng wiped his mouth with a nearby grass leaf, coughed a few times, and then began to tell today's story.

"...a guy named Piero told the puppeteer that there is a place called the city that never sleeps, where there is endless fun, no reading, no learning, and no literacy textbooks..."

"... Piero told him that if you want to go to the city that never sleeps, then at 12 o'clock the day after tomorrow night there will be a carriage pulled by 12 pure white donkeys, and you can get on the carriage..."

"…The puppeteer finally chose fun over an honest life, and at 12 o'clock the night after tomorrow, he and Piero got on a carriage pulled by 12 pure white donkeys…"

"…When the puppeteer arrived at the city that never sleeps, he found that it was all about fun and no learning or literacy textbooks. He regarded Piero, who brought him here, as his best friend…"

"…But what was unexpected was that his good friend Piero simply sold him to a criminal den called the No-Endorsement Group for five gold coins…"

"…After the puppeteer had gone through all kinds of torture, his heart and body were in great pain. At this moment, it seemed that something invisible loosened."

"…I was betrayed three times. The first time, my friend cheated me of all my money. The second time, the gendarmes attacked me for no reason. The third time, Piero, who I thought was my best friend, sold me for five gold coins…"

"...I claim to have seen through the truth and falsehood of the world, and understood the true meaning of the world. It's time to make these worms pay the price they deserve..."

"…Finally, the puppeteer went on a killing spree and destroyed the endorsement-free criminal group. In the end, he murmured: puppets have no hearts, but the place without a heart is extremely clean, while the human heart with a heart is filthy and disgusting. Then, with despair for this world, he walked into the fire and burned himself into ashes."

Wu Cheng said to the children, "The story ends here. I know you are surprised by this ending, but after all, not all stories have a happy ending."

The children were stunned by this magical ending. They thought it should be a very happy ending, but obviously, it was slightly different from what they expected.

After hearing this story, they all spoke up for the puppet lovers and expressed their deep disgust towards Dottore and Piero.

Diluk was not stunned, but was thinking about the deep meaning behind this story. This story was really intriguing. Then he got up and quietly returned to his sleeping place.

Although the children agreed with Wu Cheng's explanation, they were still not satisfied with the ending of the story, so they went to bed obediently. After all, they could continue to hear new stories tomorrow.
