There was a hazy fog over the sea, and the small drum entangled in vines was alone in the sea water that just covered its ankles.

Su Ming stepped on the stones and walked around to the side of the drum. He looked at the sea water in front of him and finally found a stone from the Chen Ge pot so that he could stand on it steadily.

Paimon crossed his arms and said in shock, "We are here on vacation on the island! You played in the sea for half the night yesterday, why are you so resistant now?!"

"Because the sky just turned cloudy, I changed my clothes on purpose. Don't you feel uncomfortable with water in your leather shoes?" Su Ming stretched lazily, standing on the stone and standing out from the crowd of boys and girls. He looked particularly tall among the boys and girls. "Do you want to see me hopping on one foot to take off my socks and change my shoes after I get ashore? My trouser legs are still half wet?"

Paimon tilted his head, "But we have Xin Yan, we can make a fire and dry it!"

At this point, Paimon looked at the girl beside him expectantly, "Are you right? Xin Yan!"

Hearing this, Xin Yan nodded, "Yes, so we didn't change our clothes or shoes..."

As he spoke, Xin Yan pointed.

Whether it was the blond traveler's small leather shoes or Maplehara Manye's red socks covered with wooden clogs, they all stepped into the sea water in unison, as if they were used to it.

Su Ming thought about how Ying often jumped into the water, swam, and jumped up and down during the trip, and nodded, "You can do it, but I can't."

Under Paimeng's puzzled gaze, Su Ming counted on his fingers, "It's not like I haven't tried it before, especially when I fell into the icy lake and was pulled out to keep warm, but under normal circumstances..."

"There will be sparks on my clothes, dried seawater marks will appear all over my pants, and there may even be crystallized salt grains stuck under the soles of my feet."

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone remembered the bad luck of being ignored during this period of time.

Indeed, even though Su Ming is not that unlucky now, he is still more unfortunate than most people.

Ying sighed heavily, stepped on the sea water and stood beside Su Ming, letting Su Ming hold her shoulders to prevent her from falling into the water accidentally.

On the other side, Paimon grabbed Su Ming's sleeve, also acting as a floating crutch, "I said Su Ming can't leave me and the Traveler, right? Look, Paimon is still super useful!"

"Yes, Paimon is very considerate." Xin Yan couldn't help laughing. He looked back at the strange-shaped drum in front of him. After thinking for a while, Xin Yan tentatively stretched out his hand, "How about... I try to knock it?"

Hearing this, Wan Ye stretched out his hand to block it, his eyes seemed to be a little solemn, "Do you remember what happened when I was fiddling with the bonsai yesterday?"

Xin Yan nodded suddenly, and after looking around, he made up his mind, "According to Wan Ye's experience yesterday, you should all stay together and walk together. I will be the only one who will be locked in a small room to reflect on my mistakes."

At this point, Xin Yan couldn't help but spread his hands, "But it doesn't matter, you will come to me, and I am always ready for music!"

After saying this, a burning light suddenly lit up in Xin Yan's eyes, and he slammed his palm heavily on the drum.

The drum surface vibrated, vines entwined and filled the air, and a feeling of dizziness suddenly came over me.

The scene before their eyes shattered and reassembled, and everyone was stunned when they opened their eyes again.

"Xin Yan, you didn't go to the small dark room to reflect on your mistakes!" Paimeng's eyes widened in disbelief. "You are still with us. I thought you were going to the small dark room with Su Ming's guide!"

Xin Yan: ...

Xin Yan blinked in confusion and asked suspiciously, "Brother Su Ming's guide? And the small dark room?"

"Yes, my guide is not as cute as Paimon. He always sets traps for me, so I often throw him into the small dark room." Su Ming thought of playing games with Nashida every day and secretly guiding Nashida to use the bug to sneak through the system. He couldn't help but frowned, "It doesn't matter."

"It does matter!" Paimon's eyes widened. "So Xinyan, why do you also call Su Ming brother?! Did Su Ming come to Teyvat to take care of the children?"

After the words were spoken, everyone fell into silence.

Xin Yan stroked his chin and thought hard. After thinking for a long time, he finally nodded heavily. "Yes, isn't Brother Su Ming the one who takes the children of Liyue Port to play everywhere? I often see Brother Su Ming running around with a string of candied haws behind him. Occasionally, when I meet him in the city, he will give me candy with a smile..."

At this point, Xin Yan rubbed his fingers awkwardly, "I remember that he was in Liyue Harbor Samora during the Lantern Festival before he left Liyue. I picked up a lot..."

That was a real waste of money. During the Lantern Festival and birthdays, people would carry baskets of Mora and give them out, just like a carnival before leaving.

Hearing this, Paimon turned to Su Ming with a confused look and asked doubtfully, "When Nashida's birthday came, I was wondering if you would take Nashida on the Samora float, but you refused. As a result... you have played this game before..."

Su Ming raised his eyebrows, thought about it carefully and shook his head, "Maybe my parents think Mora is too heavy to take away..."

I can remember it, but it seemed like the Lantern Festival that year was commemorating the disciple of Emperor Yanwang.

At the time, I thought it was some unknown immortal, and I felt that he was in such a miserable state. Now I think about it...

I was so happy and laughing at the time. What's the difference between this and dancing on my own grave?

Su Ming waved his hand, unwilling to recall the past, "We should leave now and not stay here any longer."

In the illusion, there is a floating island floating in the air, with some signs of decay and brokenness. Vines are wrapped around the island like fire, as if to guide the direction. Just like outside the illusion, one can see phonograph-like morning glories and drums lifted by vines.

In mid-air, the musical notes condensed into something substantial and floated in the air, and the air was filled with the smell of burning fire.

"Desolate, this is my first thought when I saw this illusion." Mona finally came back to her senses from listening to the story, and the power of water element in her hand swirled out a transparent blue.

Paimon nodded repeatedly, "I feel a bit short of water. I really want it to rain here."

Hearing this, Su Ming raised his eyebrows.

It's raining.

It's a pity that Villette is in bad luck, otherwise...

"It's so bright over there..." Paimon suddenly came back to his senses and pointed at a huge island floating nearby. It seemed to be emitting some white light. "Do you want to go over and take a look?"

Everyone looked at each other, looked at the bottomless space under their feet, and then looked up.

Wan Ye blinked, "If Mr. Su wasn't unlucky... would he still be afraid of heights?"

Su Ming: ...

"You are looking down on me." Su Ming glanced at Wan Ye and took a step forward. "Who is not a god?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man disappeared, and then a familiar person appeared at the edge of the island in front, and seemed to be waving at this side.

Paimon tilted his head in confusion and asked innocently, "Are you looking down on Su Ming? You're clearly looking down on Zhongli's teaching method!!!"
