The Homeless Man of Teyvat

Ba Ying Island, the head of the snake god.

Thousands of years ago, due to various reasons, the demon god Orobas chose to lead the people of the Coral Palace and brazenly invaded Narukami's land eastward, provoking a war on his own initiative, causing Narukami's beloved Tengu Yuri to perish here.

Later, the big snake was killed by His Highness the Imperial Palace and died on Ba Ling Island.

The remains of the huge serpent occupy nearly half of the island. Even after thousands of years, if you look down from a high place, the white bones are still clearly visible. The knife mark that nearly cut off Ba Ying Island and caused the seawater to flow in - Wuxiang Blade lay quietly in the narrow space. Except for a few strange plants that could survive, it was still a forbidden area for living things in people's mouths.

Nowadays, the remains of the big snake are integrated with Baling Island. The wind-eroded and petrified snake has a huge mouth and its fangs are covered with moss. The ferociousness of it in life can still be seen.

Ying raised her head and marveled at the shock of the snake's skeleton together with Paimon.

"so big……"

Paimon kept tilting his head back, and successfully made himself do a half-back somersault in the air, and then simply lay on the air, as if the air was a big and soft bed: "Shadow can actually cut such a big snake god with one knife." Kill him!"

She sighed and exclaimed, suddenly thinking of something, she turned her eyes to Chen Tianfeng, her little face was full of seriousness: "Tianfeng, you have to be careful with Ying, it's best to stay away from her... Well, you must not make her angry!"

"Ah? Why?"

Chen Tianfeng didn't understand what the little mascot had in mind for a while.

"You see, you are a snake god, and Orobas is also a snake god, and Orobas is bigger than you." Paimon was justified: "But Orobas still can't stop the shadow sword, so you must be careful!"

"Ah? No, how could Orobas be better than me..."

Chen Tianfeng subconsciously retorted, then hurriedly stopped and glared at Paimon. From the corner of his eye, he noticed Ying's slightly widened and smiling eyes, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "In short, I am much more powerful than Orobas, so I should Just be careful not to make me angry."

"But……"

Paimon scratched his hair, as if he wanted to continue discussing this issue.

"Nothing to worry about."

Chen Tianfeng immediately interrupted and took out a piece of Sweet Flower Stuffed Chicken from the Eye of God and stuffed it to Paimon: "After being out for so long, little Paimon hasn't eaten for a long time. He must be hungry. Come on, come on, don't polite."

"Huh? Oh."

Paimeng, who had just eaten a whole portion of squirrel fish two hours ago, took the sweet flower stuffed chicken, twitched his little nose and smiled: "Thank you Tianfeng~"

"Pfft~"

Ying couldn't help laughing, but quickly restrained herself. She glanced at Chen Tianfeng, who was rarely embarrassed at all, pursed her lips and looked at Paimon: "Speaking of which, little Paimon ate a lot of delicious food during his recent trip. ”

Especially after accepting Yae Kamiko's invitation to go to Inazuma, Paimon has been eating and eating non-stop.

She thought for a while and asked curiously: "Hmm...if he gets fat, will little Paimon be unable to fly?"

While fighting against the Sweet Flower Stuffed Chicken, Paimon said proudly: "Humph, no way! I'm the type who doesn't get fat!"

"Um……"

"So I want to eat more delicious food!"

Ying pinched her round chin and thought thoughtfully: "Eating alone does not make you gain weight. From the perspective of emergency food, it is already unqualified."

"!"

Paimon caught the important signal and ignored the sweet flower-stuffed chicken that tempted her. He immediately raised his head and looked at Ying, his eyes astonished, as if he saw his own scrapper secretly feeding the little wild cat with good cat strips: "Hey—— Do you have any other qualified emergency food outside?"

Ying: "Huh?"

This time it was Chen Tianfeng's turn to laugh out loud.

After some laughter, the three of them got down to business.

First, he chose a geomantic treasure site in the place where the snake god had the most intense pollution from evil spirits. Then he repaired the geomantic treasure site and built an "ancient gate" that looked like the ruins of Teyvat, which was enough to deceive mortals.

Chen Tianfeng closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his deep black eyes turned into cold gray-white snake pupils. He stretched out his palm and pressed it softly, feeling the remains of Orobas covered in an instant, as if endless tiny light spots overflowed from his palm, penetrated into the pale snake bones, and spread out to devour silently bit by bit.

Ying and Paimeng silently took a step back, then took another step to distance themselves from Chen Tianfeng.

It was not that he was worried about being accidentally injured by Chen Tianfeng, but that his aura at this moment was so special that the living could not help but feel fearful.

The haunting aura that pervaded Ba Ling Island began to converge towards the head of the snake god, and the concentration continued to decrease until it reached a certain key node.

Chen Tianfeng scanned the remains of the big snake several times with his senses, and after confirming that nothing was missing, he withdrew his senses. With a flip of his palm, most of the evil spirit power of Ba Ying Island gathered and condensed in his palm, turning into a fist-sized and beautiful thing shining with colorful light. crystal.

"Eight Hearts and Eight Arrows, meticulous workmanship, how about it? Isn't it beautiful?"

Chen Tianfeng turned around and looked at Ying and Paimeng who took several steps back with his dark eyes. He smiled proudly and said, "In the Kingdom of the Holy Spirit, I don't know how many people hope that I can help them cut a gemstone, saying that it is to be used as a family heirloom."

"Well……"

Ying took two steps closer, took a look at the irregular crystal in Chen Tianfeng's hand, blinked, and said in a slightly confused tone: "Tian Feng, are you sure this is... well, the Eight Hearts and Eight Arrows of the Holy Spirit World, and other worlds - at least The world I know, they are not the same concept?”

If she remembered correctly, the Eight Hearts and Eight Arrows should refer to a gem-cut design. It makes it possible to see eight arrows of the same size, bright and symmetrical when viewed from the top of the gem; eight perfectly symmetrical and full hearts appear from directly below the gem.

But the crystal in front of me, well... its facets and edges are very free.

"Ahem, you guessed right."

Chen Tianfeng coughed lightly, and with a slight thought in his mind, the crystal melted quietly and turned into a ball of amorphous purple liquid: "Actually, I'm not very good at cutting gems. I am loved by my people... What, Ying, that scale... Me, let me transform it.”

Ying took out the scales stored close to her body and handed them to Chen Tianfeng, and was considerate and did not mention the Eight Hearts and Eight Arrows thing.

"We were guessing what kind of locator the movie would send. Although we didn't come up with the result, it made me think of another thing."

Chen Tianfeng took the scales and changed them to a suitable size, then drew in the purple liquid and took out some materials rich in elemental power to blend into it. Then his fingers flew up and down, and the liquid quickly turned into silk, weaving something into shape under his hands.

"What's up?"

Ying was a little curious and stared at Chen Tianfeng's hands dancing like butterflies without blinking.

"We were in a hurry when we were in Liyue, and we didn't have time to pick up many good things. For example, Mr. Zhongli is very good at the method of cave heaven. He can make a teapot that can accommodate a small world, which can make the journey more comfortable. Although we can go back again One trip, but we can’t make do with it during this time, right?”

"It just so happens that I have some attainments in space, so I thought I would do it myself so as not to trouble Mr. Zhongli." Chen Tianfeng stopped, stretched out his palm, and said with a smile: "No, it's done."

A beautiful and delicate filigree bracelet lay in the palm of his hand, with gem-like white scales about the size of a fingernail embedded in it, occasionally flashing with five-color light.

Ying opened her mouth slightly, looked at the filigree bracelet, and then at Chen Tianfeng. Finally, she pursed her lips and smiled, raised her hand to reveal her wrist, and her eyes moved: "I like it very much... put it on for me."

It seems that he hasn't given Tian Feng any decent gifts yet... Well, this won't work. Think about it carefully, what would be a more appropriate gift?

The girl was thinking in her heart, feeling unusually distressed for a moment.

"It's really a good fit, and my craftsmanship hasn't deteriorated as expected."

Chen Tianfeng held Ying's hand and carefully looked at the match between the smooth wrist and the bracelet. He nodded with satisfaction: "The space of the bracelet is not large, but the environment can be changed according to your wishes, which is quite convenient."

Ying's mental energy reached out, established a connection with the bracelet, and sensed the seemingly vast wilderness within it, as well as the gentle and bright sun in the sky. He blinked: "Isn't this big?"

"It's barely enough, after all, the quality of the materials is limited."

Chen Tianfeng looked serious and said: "But it doesn't matter, the most important function of this bracelet is not to carry the little cave."

He pointed at the shiny white scales: "These are my scales and are closely related to me, so..."

"So this is the locator you gave me?"

Ying thought for a moment, tilted her head slightly, and said with a smile on her lips: "Tian Feng, don't follow the bad example of the demon gods in Teyvat."

"What locator? Although it does have a locating function, that was before the upgrade."

"So it's gone now?"

"That's not it. There's another one, and it's been enhanced - it's now a positioning communicator."

"Wow, you actually admitted it."

"Doesn't this make me look honest?"

Chen Tianfeng smiled sheepishly and said, "It's too far off topic. The most important function is that with it, you can borrow my power for a short period of time - and it will burn everything you don't like."

Ying's eyes finally widened, and she subconsciously wanted to take back her hand and look at the bracelet carefully, but failed. She was stunned for a moment, looked at the wrist held by Chen Tianfeng, pursed her lips, and looked aside: "Tianfeng, hand..."

"Huh? Oh."

Chen Tianfeng reacted, let go of his hand, and thought about it again. He felt that it was better not to explain such a thing, which became more and more confusing the more he explained it. You can’t say that you forgot to let go because it felt so good, right?

While he was looking at the bracelet, he took out the bronze coffin in which the rice wife had been smuggled out and began to distress it. After a while, the golden coffin turned into a copper-green color, making it look like it had been drifting alone for thousands of years. .

"It's almost time. According to the plan, you will go to Inazuma City to find Yae Shenzi. I will stay here to create a one-time secret realm."

Chen Tianfeng knocked on the coffin board and said with a smile: "I will place it in the center of the secret realm and wait for you to come over. Don't find the wrong one."

"Well, don't worry."

Ying nodded and carefully took note of the old appearance of the coffin.

"besides……"

"you say."

"I always feel that Yae Shenzi asked me to pretend to be Orobas for another purpose, not just for Kaiji Island. After all, for gods, especially gods with real power like Shadow, she has many ways to regain Kaiji Island. , There is no need for me to help, I will still help in this form.”

Chen Tianfeng frowned and said, "After you go to Inazuma City and meet the Yae Shenzi, try to give a hint and see if she will tell you everything."

"Yes, I took note of it."

Ying nodded, then became curious: "Tian Feng, if she chooses to pretend to be stupid, what will we do?"

"Then there's no need to follow their script."

Chen Tianfeng said calmly and casually: "I only promised Ying that I would pretend to be Orobath, but Orobath, who was resurrected from the dead, has changed his temperament. It is reasonable for him to perform a drama of the return of the evil god on Haiji Island."

His brain is not broken, and there is no reason for him to be calculated and provide help happily.

"I understand."

Ying nodded again and was about to turn around and leave. Suddenly, she thought of something and glanced at Chen Tianfeng with her beautiful golden eyes: "Tianfeng, I have another question."

"Hmm? You say." Chen Tianfeng looked at the golden eyes, and suddenly a subtle sense of danger emerged in his heart. His expression immediately became serious and solemn: "I will tell you everything I know!"

"You just said that your craftsmanship has not regressed..." The blonde girl stared at him, raised her wrist and shook it, smiling: "Who else have you made such a gift for?"

Chen Tianfeng: "..."

Paimon suddenly realized that the atmosphere seemed a little wrong. His eyes turned between the two of them, and he retreated quietly without saying a word.

"This... I am a god, I will always bless my people, right?"

Chen Tianfeng had a clear conscience, but being stared at by the golden eyes, he felt a little guilty for some reason. He scratched his hair and said, "Over time, I have acquired a good forging skill."

"Really?"

Ying took a step closer, tiptoed, making the distance between the two people even narrower.

"Absolutely true."

Chen Tianfeng's expression was sincere, and at the same time he glanced in a certain direction without leaving a trace, muttering something in his heart.

"Okay, I believe you."

Ying raised her hand and pressed it on Chen Tianfeng's shoulder, nodded, and adjusted his collar very naturally, then took a step back, put his hands behind his back, and smiled with a smile in the corners of his eyes: "Wait for me here, don't run around, did you remember it?"

"Yes, yes, I remembered it."

Chen Tianfeng smiled unconsciously, waved his hand, and watched Ying leave.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Until he confirmed that Ying had gone far away, Chen Tianfeng sighed, looked in a certain direction, and twitched his mouth: "Brother-in-law, you have been watching for so long, come out and talk?"

"..."

The air somewhere in the head of the snake god twisted for a moment, and a space crack with purple-black smoke appeared. Kong, with a slightly dark face, walked out of it and stood seven steps away from Chen Tianfeng, staring at this bastard who stole his sister: "Who is your brother-in-law?"

Regret, in short, regret.

Why did he listen to Wendy's nonsense and let Chen Tianfeng become his sister's travel companion?

Ying is safe now. No one in Teyvat will try to threaten Ying before they are able to deal with Chen Tianfeng - this is no different from seeking death. But while Ying is safe, his sister is not so "safe".

Kong felt complicated, staring at Chen Tianfeng, and suddenly remembered what he saw on a certain planet when he was traveling in the star sea.

Then I saw Chen Tianfeng's hair turn yellow, he was dressed in a frivolous way, with exaggerated tattoos on his arms, and a modified hoverbike parked next to him. He grinned and laughed wildly: "Hey, brother-in-law, is it safe for my ghost fire to park in front of your house?"

Hard, fists hard.

High, blood pressure high.
