"As honorary knights, we have the duty to maintain Mondstadt's safety and question suspicious persons." Jiang Yi made up an excuse casually, "Let's go down!"

"Wait! It's not right to suspect a stranger like this! We have no grudges against each other." Paimon said.

Ying stared at the other person's clothes. The patterns on them seemed to be familiar to her somewhere.

In the deep and distant memories hidden in myself.

"Ah!" Jiang Yi stretched out his hand and activated the Tai Chi Bagua Star Plate to show his persuasiveness. "Tell me the truth! Ying, according to the fate I spied on, he is related to your brother."

Ying's pupils shrank slightly, Jiang Yi's tone was so firm.

"elder brother!"

After traveling for so long, have you finally found clues about your brother?

"Shh! Don't get excited yet." Jiang Yi held Ying back, "Don't show it in front of him for now."

As he spoke, the scene around him distorted slightly, and his mindscape field was shrouded to prevent others from hearing.

Ying calmed down.

The three of them went downstairs.

"How should I start a conversation?" Paimon scratched his head.

"Hello, I am an honorary knight of the Knights of Favonius!" Ying stepped forward.

The drunk blond man ignored him.

Ying frowned.

Jiang Yi leaned close to his ear and said, "Introduce it this way..."

"I... I am a traveler." Ying repeated Jiang Yi's words.

"Traveler... Huh. Why do you want to travel?" The blond man put down his glass.

"You've spoken to me!" Paimon cheered with a fist.

"To find lost relatives." Ying said without hesitation.

"..."

"That reason... is not bad." The blond man turned his head and looked at Ying, Paimeng, and Jiang Yi. He stayed with Jiang Yi for a second longer, "Sit down, sit across from me."

"What a strange person." Paimon looked thoughtful.

Ying sat down and sat opposite the other person.

Jiang Yi leaned against Ying, sitting diagonally opposite her.

In the middle, Paimon is floating.

"This little thing next to you, and...what does he mean to you?" the blond man inquired.

Ying wasn't in the mood to joke today, and didn't want to say that Paimeng was emergency food.

"Best partner, dearest friend."

"Hehe!" Paimon happily put his hands behind his back.

Jiang Yi watched silently.

"It's nice to have someone to accompany you when you travel." The blond man was silent for a moment, leaned back and sat up straight, "My name is Dainsleb."

"My name is Ying, she is Paimeng, and that one is Jiang Yi." Ying introduced.

"I know your names." Dainsleb raised his eyelids. "What do you want to see me for?"

"Ask about my brother." Ying said frankly.

Dainsleb did not immediately answer whether he knew or not.

"Five hundred Mora, three questions, Mora paid in one lump sum."

"It doesn't seem very expensive!" Paimon confirmed, "I'll give you 500 Mora. Then, can we ask three questions?"

"No!" Dainsleb ignored Paimon and said to Ying, "I'm asking you... and him three questions each. I wonder if your friend is willing to answer them for you?"

"Sure!" Jiang Yi was a little curious about what Dainsleb would ask him.

"How does this make sense? Shouldn't you be the one answering the questions if you're paid? Why should we answer them? Will you tell Ying about her brother later? You're not a liar!" Paimon showed his skepticism to the fullest.

"If you're trying to cheat, Jiang Yi is very powerful and will make sure you can't leave the bar."

This is exactly what the fox does when it takes advantage of the tiger's might.

"Ha!" Dainsleb glanced at Paimon, "If you don't want to, let's end this conversation!"

"Hmph!" Paimeng put his hands on his hips and wanted to say more.

Ying stretched out her hand to stop him: "What's the question? Ask it yourself!"

Five hundred Moras were taken out and placed on the table, and Dainsleb reached out to take them away.

"The dragon plague in Mondstadt was solved by you and the wind god who called himself... Wendy. In your opinion, who is the key to ending the dragon plague?"

Ying was slightly surprised: "How do you know Wendy is..."

"I know everything I should know." Dainsleb said calmly.

Ying began to believe that the person Jiang Yi mentioned knew news about her brother.

"It's all the Mondstadt people who worked together," she said.

"Hmm!" Dainsleb did not comment, but turned to ask Jiang Yi: "If we talk about travelers, you are also a traveler who has drifted to this world. Where is your sword pointing?"

Jiang Yi chuckled: "I will hold it in front of you to protect you!"

Dainsleb stared at Jiang Yi, and Jiang Yi looked back at him calmly.

"Ying, the next question is yours." Dainsleb turned around, "The Rock King, who has protected Liyue Harbor for thousands of years, used his God's Heart to make a so-called 'contract to end all contracts' with unknown contents."

"Who do you think will protect Liyue Port after losing its gods?"

Ying's heart was in turmoil, he also knew this secret.

The only people present at the conversation were Executive Zhidong, her, and Zhongli.

Did the other party know this through astrology? But does he have the ability to spy on the gods? Or did he figure it out through intelligence analysis?

“Everyone in Liyue Harbor,” she answered firmly.

Dainsleb looked at Jiang Yi again: "Here, your journey has only lasted for a year. What are you guarding?"

"Many, many things that I care about after we became friends." Jiang Yi's eyes were gentle.

Dainsleb then asked Ying.

"In this world, there are people who have obtained the Eye of God and people who have not. Which of these two types of people do you think is more important to the gods?"

Ying thought deeply and said hesitantly: "Maybe none of it matters!"

After asking Ying three questions, Dainsleb nodded: "Is this your answer... It is indeed very similar to him."

There is no right or wrong answer to the question; it just reflects different attitudes.

"He?" Ying noticed this address. Could it be brother?

Dainsleib looked at Jiang Yi again: "Protecting... a very beautiful ideal."

"But the guardian may be left with nothing."

"If one day you need to draw your sword against the being you want to protect, will you do it?"

Jiang Yi tapped the table with his fingers, his eyes became sharp, and his tone was sharp enough to cut through everything.

"I will prioritize solving the existence that created this problem, whether he is a human or something else..."

Dainsleb's face was expressionless, and he suddenly said.

"Do you know anything about the Abyss Cult?"

Ying said, "I have seen some Abyss Mages."

Jiang Yi nodded: "I understand a little bit!"

Dainsleb said slowly: "Abyss Mage, these monsters that serve the Abyss are the minions of the Abyss Cult that spread chaos in this world."

"I am on a journey just like you. Ying is on a journey to find her family, and I am on a journey to fight against the abyss."

"I came to Mondstadt this time to track down the traces of the 'Apostle of the Abyss'..."
