Genshin Impact: I am Nangong Wenya, whoever I touch will be stupid

"Wow, it looks like a great song. Paimon wants to sing it!"

Although he didn't know much about music theory, Paimon thought the song should be good after looking at the lyrics, and he hugged the paper in his arms without hesitation.

"Then you have to practice hard, because tonight is the Lantern Festival Ceremony, and you don't have much time."

Using a song to divert everyone's attention, Nangong Ya patted Paimon's shoulder as a reminder.

Although they had not made any arrangements before this, who would not give face to the Traveler? It was easy to insert Paimon into the program. Moreover, Nangong Ya's plan was to insert it into the Sea Lantern Music Festival as the end of the ceremony, rather than into the ceremony itself.

After all, the people who appeared at the Lantern Festival were all well-known figures like Yun Jin...

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this for now. Liuyun, why did you suddenly bring them to Guiliyuan?"

After putting away the Lingxi Pen, Nangong Ya pushed away Paimeng who was flying in front of her and blocking her view, and then asked Liu Yun.

"...Ahem, I just think the scenery here is nice, don't you think so?"

Liu Yun hesitated for a moment, coughed lightly, turned his head and looked away and asked.

"Xiaoya, Zhenjun is... afraid that you will be sad."

Seeing that Liu Yun changed the subject, Ganyu had no choice but to explain to Nangong Ya.

"Oh, I'm not too sad. It's been thousands of years anyway. I can't cry every time you mention it."

Nangong Ya then remembered this incident and spread her hands and spoke indifferently.

"Ahem, since you don't mind, I'll tell you."

Liu Yun finally perked up when she heard Nangong Ya say that she didn't mind. With her personality, it would be uncomfortable to keep things to herself.

"I wonder if you, the travelers, have ever heard of the name [Return to the End]?"

Just like that, Liuyun began to explain the whole past to Ying and Paimeng, and also added a funny story about how she found Nangong Ya in the sea of ​​​​glazed lilies.

However, Nangong Ya herself immediately refuted it, firmly claiming that the story was made up, and explained that Liu Yun did not know Gui Zhong at that time, so she could not have known about it.

"Oh, by the way, Ganyu was raised to be fat and white at that time. I think Xiaoya should bear the main responsibility. She knew that Ganyu was a Qilin but she still took her down the mountain to eat barbecue and fried chicken. Now Ganyu is afraid of getting fat again and dares not eat meat."

Liu Yun suddenly remembered something while speaking, and immediately explained some details of the interesting stories about Ganyu's childhood that he had told her before.

"Humph, if it wasn't for me, would Ganyu be able to choke the giant beast to death? If it was eaten directly, it would be doomed!"

Nangong Ya crossed her arms and tried to argue.

"Master Liuyun——! Xiaoya——!"

Ganyu didn't expect that such a thing could happen to her again, and she shouted with a red face.

Moreover, Liu Yun's words reminded her of the time when she was infantilized. At that time, she was the one who laughed the happiest when she heard Liu Yun talking about his childhood stories.

"Ahem, I'm getting off topic. I'm going to tell you about the past in detail..."

Liu Yun coughed lightly and quickly corrected the subject.

The story begins with a bell...

Simply put, there was a conflict between technology and art, which led to an argument between Gui Zhong and Ge Chen Lang Shi Zhenjun. In the end, the dispute was ended when the Emperor stepped in and took away the Di Chen Ling, which could compose music independently.

Since then, the two often met in the mountains to discuss classical music, mechanical techniques and various things in the world.

It was also at that time that Nangong Ya was muttering something about "eh", "ai" or "creation", and then asked Liu Yun and Gui Zhong to create a Lingxi pen that could express what was in her mind.

And further on, it is the story of the Demon War period...

"Humph, it's all Zhongli's fault. Who would kick out their own nurse first in a team fight?"

After listening to these stories, Nangong Ya crossed her arms and spoke in dissatisfaction.

"Well, so many years have passed... and who would dare to touch your abilities back then? You couldn't touch the other side."

Liu Yun waved his hand and stopped talking about this topic.

"In short, that means...Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun is the immortal who played the zither to save people? Is this the person Dvorak is looking for?"

After listening to Liu Yun's story, Paimon thought for a while and asked this question.

"It should be her."

Liu Yun nodded affirmatively.

"Then how do we find this immortal?"

Paimon asked curiously. This fairy name was actually a little unfamiliar to them and they had only heard it a few times.

"No need to look for her, that person is Ping."

Ganyu, who was standing by, had recovered from her state of shame and began to explain.

"A Ping... Oh, it's Grandma Ping! If that's the case, Grandma Ping was also present at Osel's time. It turns out that she is the True Lord of Gechenlangshi!"

Paimeng then suddenly realized and understood the identity of Grandma Ping.

"There's no time to lose, let's go find Grandma Ping..."

"Where?"

Paimon spoke excitedly, but before he could finish his words, Nangong Ya grabbed the clothes by the back of his neck and lifted him up in his hand.

"Paimeng needs to rehearse for her singing performance now, so I will take her to the stage of the Haideng Music Festival first. Ganyu and Ying sisters, please come over as soon as you are done with your work."

Nangong Ya waved to Ganyu and Ying, said goodbye to Liuyun, and left with Paimeng.

After Nangong Ya left, Ying and the others immediately returned to Liyue Harbor and found Grandma Ping. After explaining the whole story to Grandma Ping, they invited her to perform on stage, but unfortunately she still refused.

After saying goodbye to Grandma Ping, Ying rushed to the performance venue of the Haideng Music Festival and explained to Dvorak that the fairy who saved people that year was Grandma Ping.

Upon learning of this, Dvorak said that he would definitely thank Ying in person after the music festival, and Ying's mission was thus completed.

"…Oh no, I forgot to give the bamboo shoots to Zhongli!"

Ying originally wanted to stop and rest while waiting for the concert to begin, but suddenly she thought of something, so she turned around and ran back to find Zhongli, who was currently having a small gathering with two other Jueyunjian immortals.

Just like that, the Sea Lantern Festival ceremony began amid everyone’s anticipation. Magnificent fireworks soared into the sky, illuminating the Bazhe artistic ice sculptures with lanterns hanging on the sea.

At the Haideng Music Festival, Xin Yan and Hu Tao sang the opening song and performed on stage together.

"Ahem, hello everyone, this is Paimon, the traveler's best companion and guide."

"Today, Paimon will sing a song for everyone in Liyue... The song is called [Good Days]."

Soon it was Paimon's turn to go on stage. Although she was a little timid, she still went up.

"Happy gongs and drums beat out the joy of every year, and beautiful dances bring joy to every day..."

"The oil paint of sunshine has painted today red, and the flower of life is our smile..."

This song, which was unfamiliar but appropriate for Liyue Harbor, was sung by Paimeng, while Xinyan helped to play the accompaniment in the background, as a thank you for their efforts for the Haideng Music Festival.

Although it was a song that had never been heard before, it was festive and appropriate for the occasion. On the day of the Lantern Festival, everyone quickly accepted this song. Along with the festive song, the people of Liyue began to release lanterns.

"Today is a good day, everything in my mind can be accomplished..."

"Today is a good day, let's open the door and welcome the spring breeze!"

After the song was finished, the audience burst into applause, which made Paimeng feel a little embarrassed.

"Travelers, let go together."

"Ah."

On the Yujing Terrace, Ying and Shenhe worked together to send the huge sky lantern into the air. This behemoth-like existence became the protagonist among countless sky lanterns as soon as it appeared.

"What do you think, Ganyu? Am I right? This is the best place to watch the sky lanterns and fireworks!"

Sitting on top of the giant sky lantern that was rising into the sky, Nangong Ya pointed at the surrounding sky lanterns and spoke to Ganyu beside her.

"It's really nice, but isn't it dangerous to be too close to the fireworks?"

Ganyu looked up at the sky lanterns floating around her in the wind, but she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Haha, how dangerous can it be? It can't even explode in my face."

Nangong Ya said indifferently.

bang——

……

"Is this the Lantern Festival?"

On the streets of Liyue, Ansos, who was celebrating the Lantern Festival for the first time since he was born, was somewhat tempted. After thinking for a while, he walked to a stall and bought a sky lantern, then blended into the ordinary crowd.

"Hahaha, my invincible Ghost Bug Sky Lantern is no worse than the big Sky Lantern above!"

On the other side of the street, Arataki Ichito was laughing happily while holding a specially customized sky lantern.

"So... Boss, you used the money you earned from working these days to customize this lantern?"

Shinobu Kuki on the side held his forehead with one hand. They had been working these days in order to buy boat tickets back to Inazuma.

"Well, I haven't customized this one yet..."

"Look, I customized two!"

"Hahaha, let you, Ninja, light this big melon lantern!"

Arata Ichito said this guiltily, but as soon as he finished speaking he suddenly took out another sky lantern.

"..."

"If you need it, I can help you light the fire~"

Yan Fei, who was calling the two to go out shopping, smiled and stretched out a finger, and a flame came out of the finger.

When the three of them passed by Wanmin Hall, they could faintly hear the anxious voices of Xiangling and Guoba from inside the hall.

"Ahhh, Guoba, you're spitting fire so big that the Xiao Lantern is about to be burned. Quick...where is the water!"

"Lulu!"

"Dad, stop cooking and come help me!"

Chef Mao, who was busy cooking for the guests, said: “……?”

……

Qunyu Pavilion.

Ningguang and Keqing both put on new customized outfits.

"The view from up here is vast, but it's too deserted. I want to go down."

Keqing watched the fireworks and lanterns on the Qun Yu Pavilion for a while, and soon wanted to go down.

"Oh, then let's go down together. Beidou is out drinking, so you're the only one who can accompany me."

Ningguang chuckled, and walked onto the same pumice lift as Keqing, descending towards Yujing Terrace.

……

"Qiqi, Happy Lantern Festival. Yaoyao bought you coconut milk."

"Yeah, thank you Yaoyao~"

At the entrance of Bubu Lu, the two little ones gathered together happily, while Bai Zhu and Chang Sheng were standing not far behind the two of them, looking in the direction of the fireworks and flying lanterns.

"Damn it! I really want to take Xiaoli to watch the fireworks display, but unfortunately the Emperor has already changed back..."

"Haha, you still like children so much."

On the Yujing Terrace, Grandma Ping and Liuyun were chatting and laughing together.

……

ps: I wish you all a happy new year in advance!
