The Homeless Man of Teyvat

"This is where?"

"I have no idea."

"What's in that building?"

"I have no idea."

"You haven't seen it?"

"No."

"Why?"

"You have too many questions, outsider."

The giant snake Chen Tianfeng glanced at Wendy and said calmly: "There are so many reasons in the world. If you don't go to see it, of course you don't want to see it."

He always had a feeling that when he looked at the window that made him feel warm, and when he saw the scene behind the window clearly, something would happen unstoppably.

Just like a sweet dream shattered and cold reality descending - this premonition really frightened him.

So he pretended to be an ostrich, suppressed his desire, and even built the temple several mountains away from the old building.

"Outsiders, are you interested in hearing me tell a story?"

Chen Tianfeng curled up, his tail tightly wrapped around Wendy, and looked at the gray sunset: "Stories about this world."

"Of course, I'm happy to." Wendy nodded, and then added: "Of course, it would be better if you are willing to let me go."

Chen Tianfeng ignored Wendy's request and said to himself: "This is where I was [born]. When I opened my eyes for the first time, this old building was what I saw."

The ignorant giant snake woke up from the chaos. It looked at the world curiously, and the window with warm light came into view. It really wanted to take a look at that window and see what was behind it. This is not difficult for him, he can do it by standing straight up.

But when it planned to do this, sadness and fear emerged in its heart for no reason, as if it would lose something as long as it looked at that window.

So the giant snake was frightened and did not dare to look at the window. It just picked up a coin by the window and fled in a hurry.

It ran all the way, no matter how far it went, until it ran out of energy, it stopped, coiled in place, and fell into a deep sleep.

When the giant snake woke up again, crude dwellings appeared all around. Little people lived here. They called the giant snake a god and thanked it for its protection.

The giant snake didn't know what happened, but he liked these little people very much. Their prayers and beliefs also brought the giant snake into contact with some mysterious power, deepening his connection with the world.

So the giant snake stayed, enjoying the offerings of people, driving away wild beasts and providing them with shelter.

I don’t know how many years have passed, and the little people have been passed down from generation to generation, and their footprints gradually spread across the earth. The giant snake has truly become a god, and the things it does have changed from driving away wild beasts at the beginning, to changing the weather, blessing harvests, and driving away diseases...

Everything should have been so smooth and happy, but until one day, the giant snake noticed that the world suddenly fell into irreparable decline. The night is getting longer, the earth is gradually losing its vitality, and the order and rules of the world are collapsing bit by bit - the end is coming.

Unreasonable and unstoppable.

The giant snake roared angrily and tried every means it could think of to resist and protect its people, but to no avail. The cold doomsday was like a boulder on the hillside, smashing all the obstacles in the way of the giant snake and running over it mercilessly.

"I am the only god in this world, and I have the responsibility to protect my people and the world. So when I realized that this would be the last sunset, the sun would not rise, and the world would fall into icy darkness, I I decided to risk everything I had.”

The giant snake looked at the gray sunset and said calmly: "I will return everything I have to the world. While delaying its decline, I will nail the sun to the sky."

"Lo and behold, I succeeded, and the end finally stopped."

The giant snake retracted its gaze and looked at Wendy: "And now, outsider, you appear in front of me. I can feel that as long as I eat you, the world will be able to function normally for at least twenty years. At the same time, I will Get the coordinates of your world... As long as you keep eating, my world will not be destroyed."

"Eat, eat, eat, are you a greedy snake?" Wendy twitched the corner of her mouth, suspecting that Xiao Tianfeng had been hungry for a long time, so that he acted like this in his dreams.

But this dream is almost over... But is this really just a dream... Wendy glanced at the gray-white sun and then at the lighted window, thoughtfully.

The giant snake brought its head closer and blew Wendy's hair with its breath: "Outsider, are you ready?"

"Can you change your mind? I don't think it's necessary..."

In the middle of speaking, Wendy noticed the calm eyes of the giant snake and sighed helplessly: "Okay, okay, please be gentle, I'm very afraid of pain, Xiao Tianfeng."

The giant snake opened its mouth and suddenly paused.

"What, changed your mind?" Wendy raised her eyebrows.

"No, I just..." The giant snake closed its mouth and turned its eyes to the old building with a confused expression: "I just suddenly wanted to take a look at the scenery outside the window before going to save the world."

"Xiao Tianfeng, don't go." Wendy said with a serious expression: "There's nothing you want there, so you'd better eat me as soon as possible to save your world."

"You know what's in there?"

"It's just some speculation." Wendy took a breath and urged: "Okay, don't hesitate anymore, eat me quickly..."

"No, I'm going to take a look."

The giant snake interrupted him and crawled towards the old building. It suppressed its throbbing and looked up at the window.

But nothing was seen.

The window was like an opaque light source, flat and smooth. The giant snake could even see its own shadow, but could not see the scenery behind the window.

The giant snake thought for a while, took out the coin hidden under its scales, and controlled it to stick to the window.

The flat window rippled, swallowing coins like pool water, and soon returned to calm. The light quickly dimmed, but the scenery behind the window gradually became clearer.

The giant snake stared at the window nervously, refusing to let go of anything.

Chen Tianfeng opened his eyes and saw the familiar ceiling. He stretched out on the bed, yawned and got out of bed. He suddenly noticed a black shadow outside the window and couldn't help but turn his eyes and look out the window.

It was a gray-white giant snake. There was clear confusion and shock in its eyes, and then it seemed to suddenly realize, and it seemed to be crying and laughing.

Chen Tianfeng froze for a moment, wondering why he was just taking a nap at home, but when he woke up, there was such a huge and terrifying snake outside the window!

Has he traveled through time? !

"Roar--!"

At this moment, the giant snake suddenly roared up to the sky, turned into a gray-white light, passed through the window, and went straight into Chen Tianfeng's body.

! ! !

Chen Tianfeng subconsciously raised his hands and closed his eyes. A large number of memories suddenly emerged in his mind, making him feel a sharp sting in his mind, as if someone had inserted a red-hot iron into his brain and stirred it violently.

"hiss--"

Chen Tianfeng held his head and cried out in pain.

In this huge pain, Chen Tianfeng finally remembered what he had forgotten - Teyvat was not the world he first traveled through!

He is a giant snake, the only god in that world!

He thought of his panic after discovering that he had turned into a giant snake, of his refusal to accept the reality and his frantic escape from the old building, of his first encounter with humans as a giant snake, of his acceptance of offerings and becoming a god. , remembering that he had designated the area where the old building was located as a restricted area, and wanted to preserve the last traces of his hometown...

Thinking of that horrific doomsday, remembering that even though he tried his best, he could not stop the decline of the world, thinking of...the fact that he died with the world.

It turns out that I was dead a long time ago... But why... Chen Tianfeng opened his eyes, looking confused.

At the same time, the entire old building rapidly weathered and collapsed, and Chen Tianfeng's feet fell into the air and fell downwards.

He looked at the gray sunset and raised his palms, as if he wanted to catch the sun, but he couldn't, and the outcome was already doomed.

He tried his best, but he could only stop the sun for twenty years, but it would always set, just like the world would eventually end.

Chen Tianfeng closed his eyes tiredly.

The next moment, the wind suddenly blew.

He felt himself falling into a warm and soft embrace.

"...Wendy?"

"Yeah, I'm here."
