The Homeless Man of Teyvat

A two-story building somewhere in Mondstadt.

The drunken bard carried a bottle of Dawn Winery's specialty wine, hummed an unknown tune, took out the key from his arms, and inserted it into the keyhole after two or three errors, opening the door.

Bang.

He closed the door, gulped down a big mouthful of wine, and had a happy smile on his face.

"Ha~ It's worthy of being Dawn Winery's dandelion wine, it tastes so good! Alas, it's a pity that Xiao Tianfeng is not here, hehe, it's a good thing that Xiao Tianfeng is not here."

Wendy hung the key on the wall hook, staggered up to the second floor, pushed open the bedroom door, casually put the bottle on the table, opened his arms, and fell on the bed with a happy face. The moment he fell, his clothes changed into comfortable pajamas, and his two braids also spread out.

"Ah, another happy day. No, no, Wendy, you can't be so decadent. You must sing more songs tomorrow, and you can't always secretly use the Mora in Xiao Tianfeng's Eye of God to buy wine."

"Well, tomorrow I will!"

The bard made a decision again, turned over, hugged the pillow and took a deep breath.

The present life is really beautiful, Mondstadt is peaceful, and the two biggest variables in Teyvat have gone to Inazuma, so there is nothing to worry about.

And Xiao Tianfeng's Eye of God always refreshes a large amount of Mora from time to time, so that he has no worries about food and drink-even has extra money to reward other bards.

As for whether Xiao Tianfeng will find out... hehe, he only takes a little bit each time... occasionally he takes more, but it doesn't matter, Xiao Tianfeng is immersed in the journey with the traveler, even if he finds out, it is impossible for him to suddenly run back to Mondstadt.

Besides, even if he wants to come back, the Eye of God and the arm armor he gave him will give him an early warning. Even if Xiao Tianfeng doesn't take them for the time being, his conspicuous and dazzling aura can't return to Mondstadt silently.

Wendy hugged the pillow and rubbed his head. Part of the untied hair covered his face, slightly covering his peaceful eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, Wendy woke up in a daze, tried to lift the thin quilt, and reached around with his hands. He muttered with a hazy confusion when he woke up from a drunken night: "Water... Where is the water?"

Snap.

The switch sounded, and the lights in the room came on.

Wendy narrowed his eyes slightly, not quite used to the sudden light. In the comfortable dizziness of his brain, he saw a familiar figure coming.

The man seemed to frown, holding a cup of warm water and handed it to him: "Really, why do you always drink until you are drunk?"

"Hehe, what's the point of drinking without getting drunk?"

Wendy took the cup of water, held it with both hands, gulped down a mouthful, and said vaguely: "Thank you, Xiao Tianfeng, it's great to have you."

Wait!

Xiao Tianfeng? !

Wendy's eyes widened, and she finally came back to her senses from this familiar scene. She regained consciousness - half because she was scared - and suddenly raised her head in shock: "Xiao Tianfeng?! You, you, you - how did you come back?!"

Still silent!

What on earth is going on!

Wendy subconsciously sensed the location of the arm armor and the Eye of God, and found that they were still in Inazuma. Then she noticed the white fox mask worn by Chen Tianfeng on the side, and understood it in an instant.

For a moment, she gnashed her teeth.

Inazuma! It must have been done by the Inazuma God!

But Ming Shen is now a pure warrior, and he should not be able to come up with such a hateful idea, so...was it the fox Thunder God's follower who came up with the idea?

"I like the gift from Ming Shen, so I came to you to share this joy as soon as possible."

Chen Tianfeng raised his hand and pointed at the white fox mask, smiling: "How is it, Wendy, are you happy? Are you touched?"

"... Very happy."

Wendy's smile was a little stiff, and she looked insincere, her big eyes rolling around: "This is a good thing! Little Tianfeng, you have been away for so long, the old man must miss you! Do you want to go to Liyue to visit?"

Chen Tianfeng glanced at him, folded his arms, and grinned: "Coincidentally, Mr. Zhongli just said the same thing."

Wendy: "..."

Damn! I was one step late!

That's right, Xiao Tianfeng will indeed pass through Liyue when he returns from Inazuma, but...

Wendy's expression became serious, holding the water cup, and said seriously: "Xiao Tianfeng, have you encountered any problems? Just tell me, I will help you."

"Not yet, I just suddenly want to come back to see you. Don't worry, I won't be polite when I really need your help."

Chen Tianfeng raised his eyebrows and smiled, glanced at the night outside the window, remembered something, and suddenly reached out to grab Wendy's wrist: "The night is just right, let's go, let's go to Fengqidi to enjoy the moon!"

"Huh?! So sudden?"

"Sudden is right, life is full of sudden things - the same is true for the life of a god!"

"Don't say some twisted ideas suddenly!"

"Wrong ideas are also reasonable!"

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Let me change my clothes! At least put down the water cup!"

Wendy was wearing a loose hooded pajamas that looked like a wind elf, holding a water cup in one hand, and was grabbed by Chen Tianfeng's wrist. She trotted behind him, passed through the door, and jumped off the windowsill.

Huh——

The night wind suddenly rose, carrying the two of them up to the sky, flying towards the big tree where the wind was blowing.

At the same time,

Liyue Harbor,

a guest from the Hall of Rebirth stood in a small courtyard for a long time, looking up at the starry sky, and sighed for an unknown period of time.

Inazuma...when did it become a place where people would overturn the table at the slightest disagreement?

Zhongli pressed his eyebrows, feeling extremely tired.

After a long time, he turned around, poured out the cold tea on the table, brewed a new pot of tea, and sipped it slowly, recovering from the surprise of someone's sudden appearance.

No, the white fox mask was given by Ming Shen, which means that when Chen Tianfeng used the mask to cover his breath, Ming Shen still knew Chen Tianfeng's location... What a good idea.

Zhongli drooped his eyelids, staring at the reddish-brown tea in the cup, and soon came up with an idea.

Very good, in this case, it is better to modify the white fox mask a little, add a switch, so that Chen Tianfeng can choose to block Inazuma's location together.

Since Inazuma Ming Shen wants a "surprise", let's make this "surprise" more thorough.

Zhongli put down the teacup, stood up, hesitated for a few seconds, waved his hand, and a jar of fine wine broke out from under the tree. He held the wine jar, flicked his sleeves, and disappeared.

The traces of the wine jar breaking out of the ground under the tree quietly recovered, as if nothing had happened.

…

Inazuma Castle, Castle Tower.

Ying hurried back here, and sat cross-legged in meditation under the slightly surprised eyes of Yae Shenzi, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

“What happened?”

Yae Shenzi looked serious and quite nervous.

“Chen Tianfeng left… If I’m not mistaken, he should be in Mond now.”

Ying took a breath and said, “As soon as he left, the general began to resist my continued use of this body.”

“…Ah?”

Yae Shenzi blinked, obviously not understanding why.
