Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Guide

Chapter 406: Old Knowledge

Casazzale Palace is a stunning architectural masterpiece.

Its design incorporates extraordinary aesthetic ideas, site selection, building materials, and even control of details... all with incredible ingenuity.

So as soon as it came out, many businessmen in Xumi focused their attention on this architectural designer, Kawei.

He was so prosperous at that time that he never said how impoverished he had become in order to complete this work.

"It doesn't matter...as long as we get the order..." Kawei squatted on the side of the road, chewing on the extremely full Dundun Tao, and thought silently, "As long as we get the order... we can always afford to pay back the money. …”

He looked at the recently completed Casazale Palace not far away, and felt an unparalleled sense of satisfaction in his heart.

He sighed involuntarily: "Every time I see Casazzale Palace, I feel that it doesn't matter if I owe some money..."

"Yeah, it's only 200 million molas, so what's the big deal? This Casa Zale Palace is really beautiful."

Kawei nodded subconsciously: "Yeah, I think so too...wait a minute!"

The blond young man who reacted in an instant suddenly turned his head and saw a girl with black hair and blue eyes standing where there should have been no one.

He smiled at Yan Yan and said harmlessly: "Hello, great architect. I have a big project here. Do you want to participate? In terms of value - I can give you a wealth of well over 200 million."

At that time, he just thought that this was a colleague who got the news from nowhere and came to see his joke. He also made such a joke... How could it be possible?

A wealth that far exceeds 200 million... He is not a three-year-old child.

"...Stop joking, you also know that I am completely broke now, right?" Kawei said frustratedly, "What big project is worth 200 million?"

"Don't worry about this." Yu Zhiwei said, "Do you know Inazuma's famous musician...Kawada Zeichiro?"

Kawei once saw an exclusive interview with Inazuma's late-blooming well-known musician, Sawaichiro Kawada, in "Steam Bird". He nodded: "I've heard a little about it, what's the matter?"

Yu Zhiwei said: "He is about to die, and I would like to ask you to design a tomb for him."

Kavi opened his eyes slightly.

"A musician like that...is going to die?"

And why was the tomb of an Inazuma musician entrusted to him in Xumi to plan it? Could it be that... Mr. Zeichiro Kawada is also in Sumeru at this moment?

Out of caution, Kawei continued to ask: "Mr. Kawada Zeichiro and you... uh, miss, what is your name?"

The girl replied quietly: "Yu Zhiwei, just call me Yu Zhiwei."

"...Yu Zhiwei? Is it you?!"

Obviously, Kawei had a big impression on this name, otherwise he wouldn't have pointed out Yu Zhiwei's identity with such a sudden reaction, and acted as if he didn't expect to meet her.

Yu Zhiwei sighed, the fingers on his side curled up imperceptibly, and finally said: "Long time no see, Kawei."

"Long time no see, Zhiwei." Kawei's mood was quite complicated. His eyes looked at her with a bit of disbelief, and most of them understood it later.

*

As for their acquaintance, frankly speaking, it was not a very pleasant past.

Kawei had not yet graduated, and when he was a student of the Miao Lun sect in the Teaching Order, he once wandered around Xumi City for a while because he had no inspiration.

At that time, by some strange combination of circumstances, he wandered into the Zubair Theater where a performance was taking place. In addition to the popular Miss Nelu, there was also a dancer who was about the same age as Nelu. She stood on the stage, swung her body and danced a dance. While dancing, Kawei thought aimlessly——

She seemed less energetic.

But just looking at her movements, she is the best and most standard performer in the entire Zubair Theater besides Nelu.

"……Who is that?"

asked the unfamiliar passers-by.

"You don't know?" another passerby replied, "She is a new dancer at the Zubair Theater. I heard that her life experience is not very good. Her mother passed away and her father disappeared. She also has a younger sister to support."

Others were surprised: "Really or not?"

"It's true, it's absolutely true!" the man vowed, "She must like dancing very much. She refused to leave before, just to beg the Zubair Theater to take her in as a dancer...I heard it took a long time."

Kawei looked at the dancer on the stage.

……Like it?

His observations of certain things are meticulous -

The dance matched her expression, but unfortunately the dancer's expression was more like a mechanically practiced expression compared to the natural and infectious Nelu.

She didn't look like she liked dancing.

Out of curiosity, after the dancer finished her performance, Kawi went to her and asked the question in the most sincere tone.

But for some reason, the dancer lady suddenly turned cold.

"Of course I like dancing. I want to stand here because of my passion and because I like it. You don't understand at all - why do you say I don't like it?"

In full view of the public, Kawei was scorned by the dancer, and then he didn't know why and felt angry. Just as he was about to say something, the person next to him advised him: "Zhiwei said it herself - she likes dancing very much. If she wants to have such a job at Zubair Theatre, dance is her roadmap in life. If you say she doesn't like it, what's the difference between that and denying her belief in life."

Kavi was stunned.

——Is this really the case?

"Miss Yu Zhiwei..." he murmured, "...do you really love dancing so much?"

Maybe it was just that the way Yu Zhiwei expressed his emotions in the dance was too subtle, and he didn't notice it at all, or he might have misunderstood something. Suddenly, Kawei was filled with guilt and wanted to go to Yu Zhiwei to apologize, but she was nowhere to be found.

Because he felt guilty, Kawei came to Zubair Theater almost every day, but for some reason, he never met Yu Zhiwei.

That apology was never uttered. After less than half a month, Kawei couldn't help but ask other people at the Zubair Theater: "I'm sorry... When will Miss Yu Zhiwei have a performance?"

The people at the theater looked at him in surprise and said, "Her sister is sick. It's normal for a child. She fell down in the mud and choked on a few mouthfuls of dirty water, and she accidentally got sick." Miss Yu Zhiwei has taken leave for half a month. If you want to see her performance, I'm afraid you have to wait until some time later."

Kawei thought to himself, it would be better for him to come back later.

But soon Kawei discovered——

His judgment was actually correct.

Kawi, who failed to meet Yu Zhiwei and apologized to Yu Zhiwei for not being able to meet her at the Zubair Theater, saw her on a remote street corner in Xumi.

She wrapped herself tightly, and if it weren't for Kawei's keen observation ability, he might not have been able to discover that it was her in the first place.

And she dressed herself up so that no one could recognize her, actually because--

Selling paintings.

Yu Zhiwei shouted skillfully: "To control the house, ward off evil spirits, attract wealth, and bring good luck - sell paintings. Everything is included in the paintings."

The child next to me was curious: "Can real candies be made out of the paintings?"

Yu Zhiwei: "It's not a big problem."

Another child asked: "Can I eat it?"

Yu Zhiwei: "If you want, you can."

"Can you conjure a lot of money?"

"Of course, I wouldn't be human if I lied to you."

"..."

Kavi's eyes widened in an instant, as if he had been mercilessly washed away by the sinister Xumi society and had his worldview shattered.
