Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Guide

Eight days flew by.

When the time came, Chinatsu packed her things without waiting for a moment and was about to go back to Tasha.

Yae Shenzi appeared out of nowhere, leaning against the door, folding his arms, and looked at her faintly.

Yae Shenzi: Stare——

Chinatsu's back felt cold.

An inexplicable feeling drove her to turn around, and she met the eyes of this fox with an unarguable expression.

Seeing her reaction, Yae Shenzi sighed: "Are you leaving now? I really don't want to stay for a moment longer~"

Qianxia looked at her seriously: "I have something I need to go back to confirm."

After receiving a letter from a stranger and discovering something fishy, ​​Chinatsu felt more and more strange the more she thought about it, and the more she thought about it, the more suspicious Escher became.

But because in the letter, the description of the little doll was so well disguised, Qianxia couldn't find a definite point to prove that he had evil intentions.

So we can only wait.

Once the eight days were up, and because she was worried about the innocent doll on the sand that she could abduct with a casual compliment, she became so anxious that she wanted to go back and watch it in person.

...so that he would not be deceived.

*

Stepping on tartar sand.

As Qinqi said in his letter, Niyu has been very busy recently.

The method provided by Escher is very effective, and the whole Tatarsha feels like seeing hope for the future.

Everyone's enthusiasm is at an all-time high, and the number of things Niyu has to deal with has gradually increased, and he can only spare less time than before to chat with the admirers.

Qinqi Zhe looked for him several times before finally getting the other person to be free.

Niyu asked him: "You're here...why don't you look in a good mood today?"

The Qingqi opened his eyes wide and was a little surprised: "Eh? Is it so obvious?"

Niyu nodded: "It is indeed obvious. Did you encounter something sad?"

In his eyes, Qingqi used to be like a well-behaved kitten, listening to whatever was said... but now it looked like it had been soaked by the rain, even its fur was drooping.

...even with a hint of sadness.

However, based on his understanding of Qingqi Zhe, he could not imagine that his state must be related to Qianxia.

as predicted.

The depressed doll said: "I... today is already the ninth day... Chinatsu hasn't come back yet."

Niyu comforted him: "Didn't the previous letter say at least eight days? What if it is longer? Or maybe she will come back at night?"

"I know...but..." He covered his heart, feeling a strange feeling arise spontaneously.

"Why does it feel... stuffy here?"

The pure white doll's expression was one of utter confusion, so he came to Niwa to ask why.

Niyu understood it at a glance. He thought for a moment and decided to use a simpler example to explain: "Do you know Uncle Kondo at the entrance of the village?"

The Qingqi blinked: "I know him."

He once passed out drunkenly on the roadside, and the admirers helped him into the house.

Niyu sighed, "Uncle Kondo...has a wife and daughter."

Almost everyone knows about this matter, except Qingqi Zhe and Qianxia, ​​who have not been imbued with too many memories of walking on Taosha.

"He did something wrong before and refused to admit it, so his wife and daughter left him."

Although he didn't know how Kondo's incident was related to his doubts, the admirer still asked: "What kind of mistake was it?"

Niyu thought that at that time, even he was just a child, but he had a profound memory of this incident.

When Kondo was in his forties, he was stimulated by something unknown, saying that he wanted to do business with the big men of Inazuma City.

He knew that his wife would definitely object, so he borrowed a lot of money without telling the family.

Later, the matter was revealed and debt collectors came to the door. Even the two young daughters were so intimidated that they dared not go out. His wife also found out that he owed a lot of money.

The people who were treading the sand persuaded him to pay back the money and live a down-to-earth life, and life would always get better again.

But he doesn't.

His wife humbly went to borrow money from her parents' house because Kondo felt that he was a respectable person doing business with a noble lord and could not lose face... As a result, after relying on his wife to repay the money, he went to borrow money again.

Then he left Tatarsha and said he was going to Daozuma City to make a lot of money.

But as a blacksmith, what foresight can he have?

The letters he sent home every day contained only his ambitions for the future, but no money to live on.

The people in Talisha were kind-hearted and introduced Mrs. Kondo to a job that could make a living, and they often helped support her family's life.

Until Kondo brought home the huge amount of debt for the second time, the only time he returned home in more than two years was to find his wife and ask for their two daughters, saying that they would sell them to the noble master in exchange for money.

Niyu thought of the two girls. The older one could only do some handiwork, while the younger one was even ignorant and only knew how to hang out with other children.

The Qinqi didn't like the story, but he still wanted to know the ending. He asked, "What happened next?"

"Later, Mrs. Kondo remarried with her two children." When Niyu thought about meeting that radiant and graceful woman again, he felt that everything in the world was magical.

Her new husband is a member of a large family that Kondo has never been able to become in his entire life.

Kondo, however, suddenly came to his senses under the successive blows, but began to languish and drink to survive.

After hearing this, the curious person said: "So that's it... I don't know why. I saw Uncle Kondo was pitiful before, but now I don't feel it at all."

"But what does this have to do with how I feel?"

Niwa said: "Do you know what prompted Mrs. Kondo to raise two children alone for so long, and are you still willing to trust Uncle Kondo in Inazuma Castle?"

"Is it because of the two daughters?"

"No, it's because of missing you."

The admirer was surprised: "Miss you?"

"Yes, just like Uncle Kondo now, he drinks until he is drunk, but occasionally calls out his wife's name. This is also 'missing'."

I just couldn't tell whether he was more regretful or sad.

The admirer asked: "Is it too late to miss you like this?"

"Yes, it's too late." Niyu said, "Irrecoverable longing will make people deeply sad...but you are different."

The Qingqi man paused his hand, and his transparent purple eyes widened slightly.

Niwa smiled amused at the cute reaction.

He said: "If you like it, don't miss it easily."

Just as he was talking, Niyu suddenly became speechless and looked at the figure holding an umbrella not far away walking slowly in.

If the curious person noticed something, he turned around following his gaze.

The man stood not far away, looking at them in surprise, then the corner of his mouth curved into a smile, and his ruby ​​eyes were dazzling.

"I'm back," she said.

The empty chest was filled with unknown emotions.

The moment he saw her... the dull feeling at first turned into joy as active as Inazuma's thunder spirit, which was still scurrying around in his chest, one after another, extremely violent.

The wonder-loving one finally realizes.

——It turns out that eight days are enough to start an endless, grand and silent longing.
