Genshin Impact: I, the first water follower, makes players excited

Chapter 99: The Sea Lantern Chapter of Wangshu Inn

Things were simple after that. Thanks to the shopkeeper's excellent carpentry skills, he made a wooden stall that looked pretty good.

"It's done, what do you think?"

The shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at his work with satisfaction.

"Now we have a stall, but we're still short of night lights. Are you prepared?"

Ying and Hines looked at the stall in front of them and quietly put the night lanterns they were about to take out back into their backpacks.

"Boss, do you have any extra night lanterns in the store?"

Ying felt a little embarrassed. After all, they had only come up with an idea, and the stall and the location were prepared by the shopkeeper.

Now even the night lights have to be troublesome...

The shopkeeper laughed.

"It's okay, it's just a few night lights, I can prepare it. But it's so late, do you want something to eat?"

Paimeng rubbed his stomach. He had planned to take Xiao back to eat and have some fun, but now it seemed that it was impossible. So Paimeng made a quick decision.

“Come and enjoy all the delicious food...”

As expected, Paimeng's mouth was also covered by Ying.

"Almond tofu and grilled tiger fish are good."

Watching the shopkeeper walk towards the kitchen, Hines turned his gaze to the rooftop.

"Now that everything is ready, let's go and invite Xiao down."

Xiao stood sideways at the railing as usual,

"What else do you want?"

Hines was about to put his hand on Xiao's shoulder.

"Come with us to the Sea Lantern Festival."

Xiao frowned and slightly turned sideways to avoid Hines's hand.

"I've already said that I don't like crowded places. You guys can just go there..."

"...Also, it's best not to touch me."

Ying smiled mysteriously and said,

"You don't need to go to Liyue Harbor~"

Xiao's eyes were visibly confused.

"What do you mean?"

"We've brought the Lantern Festival here~"

Paimon also imitated Ying's tone to explain to Xiao, but it was obvious that this sentence made Xiao even more confused.

"Moving here?"

Xiao lowered his head slightly and rubbed his chin with his hand.

It can be seen that he is indeed trying to understand what the three people are saying, but with little success.

Fortunately, Hinesh didn't intend to keep the secret any longer.

"To put it simply, we set up a stall downstairs at the inn, hung up lanterns, and organized a small sea lantern festival..."

Xiao was a little moved when he heard this. After all, who would really like to be alone forever?

Hines saw Xiao's intention and continued,

"The most important thing is that there are not many people around, so you can rest assured."

Paimon nodded vigorously.

"And we've also prepared almond tofu and grilled tiger fish! Let's go down quickly! Otherwise the food will get cold!"

......

"Not surprisingly, Paimon's main concern is always eating."

"I have a question. Isn't almond tofu a cold dish?"

"Um, you might need to ask the planner about this."

......

"Is this the Lantern Festival you brought here? Does human behavior have to be so bizarre?"

Xiao looked disdainful and complained that their behavior was meaningless.

Hines shrugged and complained in his heart, so you're not here yet.

Ying looked at Xiao and said seriously,

“The Sea Lantern Festival is a festival for everyone.”

Xiao was silent for a moment, then spoke,

"...Is that so? The human mind is truly unpredictable."

Hines looked at Xiao who was trying hard to pretend not to care and smiled.

"Let's eat first. It's time to go see the lanterns tomorrow."

Paimeng quickly sat down, grabbed a still steaming hot grilled tiger fish, and took a big bite.

"Hot! So hot!"

But even though Paimon screamed in pain from the burns, she did not spit out the fish.

Seeing this scene, even Xiao, who had always had a blank expression on his face, couldn't hold it anymore.

"Did our cold-faced immortal just smile?"

Hines blinked at Xiao, who snorted softly.

"boring."

Ying looked at Paimeng who was eating heartily, and asked Sines and Xiao to sit down.

"You two should sit down and eat first, otherwise Paimon will eat it all!"

All in all, the group had a pretty good time together.

Believe me, even I don't need to tell you, you know what Paimon looks like now.

Ying pinched Paimon's little fat face, but Paimon was too lazy to resist at this time.

Ying looked at Xiao again,

"Let's go watch the Mingxiao Lantern Festival together tomorrow."

Xiao sat on the chair and shook his legs.

"You go ahead, I'm not interested in those things."

Hines took out the napkin he carried with him and wiped his mouth.

"Just consider it a farewell for us. We are your friends now, right?"

"friend...."

Xiao whispered the word and shook his head.

"You don't have to be friends with me..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao saw the disappointed looks of Ying and Paimeng...

Xiao turned his head to the side.

"...If you insist on thinking so, I have no objection."

Ying and Paimeng looked at each other, and they also realized that the immortal Xiao was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, just like tofu.

Of course, Xiao won't burn others.

Hines raised his hand again and was about to put it on Xiao's shoulder. This time Xiao did not avoid it.

"Then it's settled. Come with us to Liyue Harbor tomorrow."

Xiao nodded slightly and looked towards the bustling port.

With such a lively atmosphere, should I really go?

......

"The Lantern Festival, this should be a day for reunion."

"But everyone at this table can't be reunited."

"Dude, there's no need to talk about this right now."

"By the way, does Paimon have any relatives?"

"You've discovered something new, Blind Student."

......

With Xiao's promise, the three of them have achieved their goal.

Unlike other immortals who have lived in the mountains for a long time, this demon-conquering great sage lives in a bustling inn.

Xiao looks at the Lantern Festival where families are reunited. Doesn’t he really want to participate?

If they weren't so full of karma, if they were all...

Xiao's sadness unconsciously filled his eyes.

"The wind is a bit strong, I'm going back first."

This time, Xiao did not disappear in a flash. Instead, he walked up the stairs step by step. At this time, there were not many people left in the Wangshu Inn except the boss and the shopkeeper.

Xiao saw the boss and the shopkeeper chatting on the second floor and nodded slightly at them.

"This person is actually greeting us?"

The shopkeeper felt that it was a little unreal. The boss leaned his elbows on the counter and chuckled.

"It seems that the Lantern Festival moved from Liyue Harbor this time is quite good."

Xiao walked to the terrace alone, sat on the railing and looked into the distance.

"Want some wine? Mond's wine."

When Xiao turned around, he saw Hines leaning against the door, holding a bottle of wine that looked very valuable.

"Only one bottle?"

Xiao was a little surprised that Sines only took out a bottle of wine. Did he not prepare any for me or for himself?

"Of course, I don't drink."

Hines casually threw the wine to Xiao, not worrying at all that Xiao wouldn't be able to catch it.

Xiao was speechless holding the bottle...
