Genshin Impact: Dionysus reigns supreme, all demons retreat!

Since obtaining his desired weapon, Beidou would occasionally follow Xu Ning to the back mountain during the day to cause trouble for the Hilichurls.

In Xu Ning's words, actual combat is the only standard for testing military strength.

In any case, Xu Ning was almost always by her side protecting her. Together with Bei Dou, they wiped out several camps without any major incidents. Xu Ning could clearly feel that Bei Dou's strength was steadily increasing.

In the evening, the two would summarize the day's gains and experiences, and occasionally they would gamble half a grilled fish to practice a few rounds, but Beidou usually lost more than he drew.

Then tell a story, then go to sleep.

The only discordant voices mostly came during mealtimes.

Beidou slammed the wine bowl he was holding onto the table with a "duang".

"This wine doesn't taste right!" Beidou shouted.

“What’s wrong with pouring it all out of the same pot?” Xu Ning retorted.

Beidou was furious. "That's not right! If you can get drunk on this wine, but I can't, then it must be watered down."

Xu Ning was stunned and remained speechless for a long time.

"Who taught you this despicable idea? Diluting alcohol with water, are you even human?"

Beidou pointed at Xu Ning with his hands on his hips, "You're not human! The other day I heard that bearded man from Wangshu Inn say that if you think the wine tastes bland and you don't get drunk even after drinking too much, it's definitely been diluted with water."

Xu Ning held up three fingers and swore to the sky: "I absolutely did not..."

Beidou directly interrupted Xu Ning's vow.

"You definitely tampered with it. How about you let me pour all your drinks from now on? How about that?"

Xu Ning smiled wryly. If he were to let the little girl pour the drinks every time from now on, not to mention that his tricks would be discovered.

I'm afraid I'll only have two choices left in the future.

Either she drinks strong liquor with me, or I drink low-alcohol liquor with her.

To be honest, after getting used to Manlong wine—which is wine infused with alcohol to fully illuminate the dragon pattern—low-alcohol wine does taste a bit bland now.

Xu Ning reluctantly poured a little Manlong wine into Beidou's wine bowl.

Beidou slammed his fist on the table with a loud thud.

"Fill it up! Who are you trying to embarrass here? Are you trying to make me lick the bottom of the bowl?"

Xu Ning held his breath and poured her a full bowl, his heart filled with regret once again.

"I was wrong, I was so wrong, I really shouldn't have let her drink. If I hadn't let her drink, I could drink as much as I wanted now and I wouldn't have to worry about her so much..."

Beidou was drinking with a broad smile, and two little red clouds silently appeared on his cheeks.

Xu Ning stared at her for a while while drinking, then asked a question.

"Beidou, what do you plan to do when you grow up?"

Beidou paused for a moment, then suddenly stood up.

Just like Xu Ning had stepped on the dog that day, Beidou stretched out one leg and stepped on the bench.

Pointing her thumb at herself, she declared, "I'm going to become the strongest pirate queen, the big sister, and find that one and only treasure, uh..."

Beidou let out a small hiccup, suddenly forgetting the name of that treasure.

After thinking it over and over, he finally replied, "Yes, ONE Pizza!"

Xu Ning regretted it again: "I shouldn't have told her about One Piece tonight, uh, I guess I should have told her about Usopp tonight!"

"If you want to be a pirate king, you first need to have your own big ship. You also need to recruit navigators, ballistae, cooks, doctors, repairmen, musicians, and a large number of strong sailors. You can't find any of these in this small fishing village."

Beidou was already somewhat drunk, and upon hearing this, he asked in a slightly slurred manner, "Where can we find them?"

Xu Ning smiled and walked over, took the empty bowl that she was clutching tightly in her hand, and then gently placed her on the bed in his arms.

"These can only be found in Liyue Harbor, the largest port city in Liyue."

Beidou mumbled in a dreamlike tone, "Go..."

Xu Ning nodded. "Go."

Leave here and head to Liyue Harbor.

Xu Ning had been thinking about this matter since his first visit to Wangshu Inn, when he made a ten-day agreement with the merchant Da Huang.

When Big Yellow returns from delivering goods from Mondstadt, he will definitely take his wine to Liyue Harbor.

Liyue is so vast, and on this expansive continent, I can't find the most suitable path using only the simple map from my past life's memories.

The best way to get to Liyue Harbor is to travel with these merchants who frequent Teyvat.

The only thing to worry about is BeiDou.

It wasn't that Xu Ning was afraid she wouldn't come with him; he believed that as long as he said he was leaving, Beidou would definitely pick up her greatsword and leave with him without a word.

However, without being driven away by the villagers, the two of them left on their own.

Will the ship be named "Death Star" and "Southern Cross" again?

Does this mean I've altered the course of Genshin Impact's history?

Xu Ning took a big gulp and turned to look at Beidou on the bed, who was breathing softly.

Since the little girl started following him, her originally pale and thin face has become rosy and jade-like, and she has gained a little baby fat on her chin. Her little pouty mouth is much cuter than before.

Xu Ning smiled contentedly, realizing he had really overthought things.

The trajectory of Genshin Impact has long been altered by itself.

go with.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and today was the day Xu Ning and Da Huang had agreed upon.

Xu Ning carried the six jars of Manlong wine that he had filled over the past two days onto the bamboo raft one by one.

Beidou also wanted to come and move things, so Xu Ning told her to bring her clothes and greatsword.

"Grandpa, you don't need to come all this way to see us off."

Xu Ning smiled at the old village chief and said, "We're just going to Liyue Harbor to broaden our horizons. We'll come back to see you during the New Year."

"Ahem," the old village chief coughed twice with a smile, and said, "I've got nothing else to do. When you get old, every separation could be forever. While I can still move, I want to see each other one more time."

Beidou found a long rope and tied his greatsword horizontally around his waist, making him look like a little girl at first glance.

She was holding a small package in her arms, which contained her and Xu Ning's change of clothes.

As soon as the old village chief saw Beidou running over, he immediately took out a tattered little money pouch from his pocket and tried to stuff it into Beidou's small package.

Xu Ning reached out to stop him, and laughed, "Sir, what are you doing? You have no idea how many Mora I made selling wine at Wangshu Inn. It's enough for Beidou and me to live on."

The old village chief was more stubborn than usual this time.

“What’s yours is yours, and what I gave to Beidou is mine. I know you’re a very capable person, and I can’t compare to you. But I really like this doll. If you hadn’t taken such good care of her, I would have really wanted to raise her as my child.”

Xu Ning scratched his head sheepishly and let go of her hand.

The old village chief stuffed the small money pouch deeper into the bottom of the package and earnestly instructed Beidou, "When you're away from home, nothing compares to home. You must keep a close eye on your valuables, be polite to others, and don't drink like Xu Ning. It's not good for a girl to be a drunkard like him all the time!"

"Hey!" Xu Ning shouted in dissatisfaction. Why am I being treated like a negative example?

Beidou obediently agreed to all of the old village chief's requests.

The two of them slowly drifted away from this unforgettable little fishing village, propelling the slightly cumbersome bamboo raft.

Beidou stood at the stern, waving goodbye to the old village chief.

Even when the village was almost completely obscured, one could still vaguely see the old village chief standing by the river.

"Xu Ning, will we come back for the New Year?"

Xu Ning braced himself against the long pole, freeing one hand to rub Beidou's head, "Come back, come back and celebrate the New Year with your grandpa!"

When Xu Ning moved all three jars of wine to Wangshu Inn at once, Huai'an was taken aback.

"Why did you suddenly move so much here? Is there some financial difficulty you're facing? Please let me know."

Upon hearing what Huai'an said, Xu Ning couldn't help but admire how well this person could be treated.

"I've come today to say goodbye to the shopkeeper!"
