Genshin Impact: I am the Great General of Liyue

Chapter 52 Wanwen Collection House

(The other immortals and Huiyuan had completely different attitudes.)

Thinking this, Paimon continued to ask the young master.

"The other immortals are very concerned about the affairs of Liyue, but why does Rao Luan Tianzhenjun seem so indifferent?"

"I don't know about that. I only know that the immortals have the responsibility and the right—if something happens to the Seven Stars who govern Liyue, they have the right to hold them accountable. Why would the Seven Stars hide the Geo Archon's body after his soul ascended to the heavens? It's highly suspicious..."

Ying felt a slight headache, and after hearing D'Artagnan's explanation, her opinion of the Seven Stars also softened a bit.

Ying said, "This is also a big problem for me."

While Paimon was considering Huiyuan's position, he suddenly remembered his and Ying's purpose and hurriedly spoke up.

"Ah! That's right, we came here to find that deity! If the Liyue Septate hides the ancestral artifacts and prevents anyone from getting close... the Traveler's goal of finding all seven deities will be completely thwarted!"

"Oh? You're searching for the Seven Gods? What's the reason?"

Ying only said four words: "No comment."

When D'Artagnan realized he hadn't gotten any information out of Ying, he admired her even more.

"Hey...not bad. A knight who is easily tricked by the Fools is not a good knight, is he? But...this time, I can still help you."

Paimon asked in surprise, "Huh? Really?"

“Give me some time. Some time... to find someone. I will find someone who can break this deadlock for you.”

There are two people that Dadalia can think of who can break the deadlock: the first is Zhongli, and the second is Huiyuan, whom he just met a few days ago.

Tartaglia couldn't help but get excited, imagining the scene of fighting against the Fire.

"Ah...how interesting. The calmer the suppression during the planning stage, the more intense the chaos that will eventually erupt...In order to witness the undercurrents burst their banks, you must hold on until you are alive and meet me again."

After saying goodbye, D'Artagnan entered the Northern Bank.

After Tartaglia left, Paimon took on the role of guide and suggested, "Traveler, let's go and see if we have any travel guides for Liyue."

...

On the other side, Huiyuan could no longer stand the useless discussions of these immortals. It wasn't that she disliked them, but they were just too verbose, and their endless speculations were utterly meaningless.

Instead of listening to them talk about these things, we should visit the cave of the True Lord of Cloud Retention and Wind Borrowing.

The cave contains all sorts of sophisticated machines. I wonder how Liu Yun usually makes them. Are bird claws very flexible? Or does he conjure up human hands to make them?

The immortals finally reached a decision and took action, leaving Liuyun's cave.

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun looked at Hui Yuan, his creation, and assumed she also liked mechanical arts, so he happily struck up a conversation.

“General Dawn, do you like mechanical arts? Let me tell you, even the Emperor and Gui Zhong would praise my mechanical skills.”

Then he sighed again.

"Sigh... It's just that my two disciples don't like these kinds of gadgets. They stopped learning immortal techniques from me after they finished learning them. It's really... If you're interested, it's not impossible for me to teach you."

Huiyuan put down the Rubik's Cube-like toy in her hand, turned to look at Liuyun, and began to speak.

"I'm not good at these things, but I have a younger sister who enjoys crafts and similar activities. I wonder if True Lord Liuyun and Borrowing Wind would be interested in teaching my sister?"

Upon hearing that he could take on a disciple, and one who could inherit his mechanical skills, Liu Yun immediately perked up.

After spreading its wings and laughing joyfully, it sighed and said, "Alas... the timing isn't quite right now."

Even the titles weren't "Dawn" or "Rao Lu'an Tianzhen Jun," but rather just his given name.

"Lingling, let's talk about this in my cave after the important matter in Liyue is over."

"Okay. I also have things to do. See you another day, Liuyun."

"Goodbye."

After saying goodbye to Liu Yun, Huiyuan arrived at Liyue Harbor.

While walking down the street, I happened to run into Ying and Paimon.

After greeting them, Paimon asked in confusion, "Sister Lingling, weren't you going to a gathering with the other immortals?"

Rubbing her nose, Huiyuan smiled and responded to Paimon.

"Hehe, I flew over here right after they finished their discussion."

"Oh... by the way, do you know where I can buy 'Watt's Guide to Liyue'?"

After pondering for a moment while stroking his chin, Huiyuan replied, "If you want to buy books... go check out Wanwen Chicken House... oops... Wanwen Collection House."

Ying and Paimon couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Her face turned red. Huiyuan was genuinely stuttering this time; it wasn't a joke.

I wish I could smash a hole in the ground and bury myself in it with geomancy...

"What are you laughing at? Everyone stutters sometimes!"

Paimon changed the subject.

"Hey, Sister Lingling, do you know where Wanwen Chicken Coop is?"

"Hello--!"

Ying grabbed Paimon's clothes and pulled them back, saying, "Sister Lingling, my family's emergency food supplies are ignorant, don't hold it against them. By the way, could you show us the way? We don't know where the Wanwen Chicken... market is."

"Why are you flirting with me too?!"

Previously, Huiyuan had made everyone laugh by mispronouncing "plan" as "only because of the plan." Now, she accidentally pronounced "collective dwelling" as "chicken coop," leading everyone to believe that Huiyuan is not good at pronouncing "ji." They assumed it was a dialect and she couldn't correct it.

...

"This is Wanwenji Residence. Ask the owner if he has a guidebook."

After Huiyuan finished speaking, Ying and Paimeng went to ask the boss for more information. Huiyuan, on the other hand, looked at Xingqiu, who was flipping through a book beside her.

She went up and patted him on the shoulder, which almost startled Xingqiu. He turned around and saw that it was Lingling, and then he felt relieved.

"Oh dear, Sister Lingling, you didn't make a sound at all! You scared me to death!"

"Hello, it's great to see you again, little brother Xingqiu~"

Xingqiu put down the painting in his hand and said, "Hello. Sister Lingling... are you here to buy books?"

Pointing to Ying and Paimeng, Huiyuan said, "I came with a friend to find some books. Brother Xingqiu is very knowledgeable, I wonder... if he could help my sister?"

"Of course."

Xingqiu felt slightly relieved when he saw Lingling, who had changed back into her original clothes.

(Thankfully, Sister Lingling didn't say anything, otherwise I would regret it for the rest of my life for forcing my own maid to dress me in such shameful clothes...)

The owner of Wanwenjishe is named Ji Fang. She is an older woman with very noticeable makeup, but she doesn't lose her beauty.

Paimon spoke to her rather loudly. The book Ying wanted to buy was never selling and was frequently the subject of complaints from travelers. Therefore, it wasn't available here, and Ji Fang suggested Ying go to Master Chang's place to check...
