Genshin Impact: The wind blowing back to the starting point

Logically speaking, a priest is a person who presides over rituals in order to worship or revere the gods he believes in.

They are essentially just a position in the village.

It's a pity that this village believes in the snake god and is a tribe formed based on faith.

Because of the particularity of its reliance on faith, the status of priests is also destined to be higher than that of village chiefs.

The village chief is just a person who manages order and meddles in other people's business.

If we want to make an analogy, the priest is equivalent to the teacher in the school, and the village chief is just an assistant who manages discipline for the teacher.

But this is only a superior-subordinate relationship at most, so why would there be any fear?

Wendy looked at Vadier suspiciously.

"Because the priest has too much power, and a person with too much power will either bring happiness or fear when he comes." Wadiye said lightly.

Hearing this, Wendy suddenly remembered something about the snake god.

Wadiye also believed in the snake god, but he hid realgar in the jar.

So, Wendy rested her elbows on the table, held her head up, and looked at Vadier with a smile. There was an indescribable depth in his smile, as if he was inspecting, but also as if he had seen through something.

"Then, do you also fear and respect your belief in the snake god?" Wendy asked.

"You're kidding," Vadier's face was filled with magnanimity, "I have 100% respect for the snake god, so how can I be afraid of him?"

"Oh! That's right. I've never been afraid of Fengshen. Occasionally I would like to steal his wine, and I often say bad things about him."

The actor started acting again, and I have to say that his performance was so resembling that Ziling couldn't help but give him a speechless look.

From this point of view, it was not entirely her fault that Ziling failed to recognize that he was the God of Wind when she stayed with him for a long time.

"But, there is a reason why I dare to do this," Wendy continued, "The God of Wind is kind and casual and doesn't care about these things."

As Wendy spoke, she looked at Vadier: "By the way, what kind of personality is this snake god?"

"Of course it is not as casual as the wind god that you believe in, but it is still a god who has protected us for thousands of generations, even more than others."

Wadiye narrated calmly.

His words were really watertight, and he didn't reveal any useful information about the snake god.

But, with this level of language, he really doesn't look like a guy who has been relying on hunting for a living.

And they also know Realgar, this person may not be as simple as they met.

But Wendy wouldn't want to ask him anything else. After all, there was no need to think about it. It would definitely be a fruitless answer.

"Are there any books here?" Zhongli, who had been silent on the side, suddenly asked, "We still need to stay here for a few days. It's getting boring if we keep doing this."

Hearing this, Wadiye laughed in embarrassment: "Sorry sir, how could we have such a thing as a book in a remote country here? Only the high priest owns that thing. If you are bored, you can go for a walk by the river. Maybe you can pick up precious ores there.”

When it comes to minerals, it really speaks to Zhongli's expertise.

So, he stood up, said that he wanted to go out, and walked out the door.

Wendy didn't pay attention to him. After all, for Wendy, he preferred light things. If it was to pick up feathers, then he would definitely go there immediately.

But Zhongli actually couldn't sit still one day, which made Wendy feel strange.

However, there is no law on the continent of Teyvat that stipulates that the old man must stay at home.

But at this moment, compared to caring about Uncle Zhong, Wendy was still more willing to observe Wadiye.

"Wendy." Zhongli shouted.

Wendy raised her head and looked at him: "What?"

"Let's take a walk together," Zhongli said calmly.

Wendy wanted to refuse, but seeing Zhongli looking at her like that, as if he wanted to say something, Wendy could only stand up and follow him.

The two of them walked out together and went down to the creek one after the other. Zhongli didn't speak a word along the way.

Arriving at the water's edge, Wendy stretched lazily, then squatted down and put her hands in the water to feel the coldness of the water.

Zhongli stood next to him, folding his arms, as if he was deep in thought.

"Hey, old man, what's wrong with you?" Wendy turned around and asked.

Zhongli remained silent.

"You don't really just want me to accompany you for a walk, do you?" Wendy looked at him speechlessly, then scooped up water and poured it on Zhongli.

"Huh? Why not?" Zhongli did not avoid it, but stretched out his hand to feel the water droplets.

"I don't think you are someone who wants to travel around with me and have nothing to do." Wendy looked at him with a look of helplessness, but this was the fact.

Hearing what he said, Zhong Li laughed out loud and squatted down to look at the stones in the stream: "Barbatos, haven't I walked around with you enough times?"

"Uh..." That's indeed a lot.

Before the Battle of Kanria, every time Wendy came to Liyue, the host would accompany her seriously.

Speaking of which, when I went to Mondstadt this time, I was busy all the time, either hiding away from people, and didn't go shopping with Zhongli much.

On the contrary, Zhongli was busy with him and stayed at home with him.

"Well, next time I go to Mondstadt, I will definitely take you around." After saying that, Wendy showed a warm smile.

Zhong Li looked at Wendy calmly, but there was a smile in his golden eyes: "Is this promise a contract? Or is it just like what you and Tevarin said."

If it's a contract, then Wendy should be punished if she breaks her promise.

But if it was just like what he and Tevalin said, it would be a simple painting.

The playful Fengshen did not answer directly. Instead, he gave the other party a playful smile and said in a pretentious manner: "I am the God of Freedom, and you are the God of Contract. Which one do you think my words will sound like?" Hey."

This kind of speaking technique that doesn't mean everything is indeed the style of Fengshen.

Anyway, if he really kept his promise, it was a contract; if he didn't keep it, it could only be said to be the freedom that Fengshen believed in.

This statement is in line with his style of leaving a way out.

Moreover, Fengshen is very good at guiding. He won't say many things directly, but half-speaks for others to guess, or guides them to walk in step by step.

Sometimes Zhongli is also curious. He is obviously born from a ray of wind, but how can he retain his divinity and understand people's hearts so well.

However, no matter how you say it, his ability to rule Mondstadt is inseparable from his ability. This can also be regarded as a way to educate and guide the people's thoughts.

Speaking of enlightenment, Zhongli suddenly thought of something: "Barbatos, have you ever heard of ideological imprisonment?"
