Genshin Impact: I am the only one who can bring disaster to Teyvat

"You are here."

The gurgling water pushes the bamboo wheel, large patches of white flowers bloom on the moist soil, the sun gently shines on the exquisite pavilion, and the tea evaporates with a thin white mist like smoke and silk.

The muscular adventurer sat at an elegant table. When he heard the door behind him open, he calmly took a sip of tea, neither arrogant nor impatient, and greeted calmly:

"The people in the pavilion said that this is the best tea, but I know nothing about tea. I drink tea more to quench my thirst, not to make it bland. Perhaps I have wasted the tea, so I hope the guests will forgive me."

"You are also a guest of this attic, Adventurer Rossol. Did you know I was coming to see you?"

"It's not something that's hard to guess. Your deeds are well known. You always run towards the lively side. You and Alice are similar people."

The teacup was placed on the table. Looking at the white-haired fox that sat down unceremoniously in front of him, Rossol sighed softly, "I will never forget joining the adventurer team that explored the ruins."

"Alice was already a famous adventurer at that time, but I was young and hot-headed. I thought I could become a respected adventurer, so I didn't care about her reputation."

"But the truth is wrong. When our team was not as good as before and was completely wiped out by the trap, I finally understood why Alice had such a bad reputation and why people even avoided her."

With a worried look on his brows, Rossol recalled the scene at that time and said, "Those traps were set by Alice the day before she sneaked in. She claimed that members of the treasure-stealing group had infiltrated our adventurer team."

"It turns out that this was the right thing to do. Four out of the ten traps were set by the Treasure Stealers' vanguard scouts. I was very grateful to Alice at the time. After all, the Treasure Stealers were not easy to get along with."

"They are ruthless and have committed many evil deeds. Those who have been in their ranks for a long time never care how many lives they have taken. The notorious ones among them have committed many bloody crimes, and the treasure-stealing group that targeted us is just like that."

"If it weren't for Alice, my dream of becoming a great adventurer would have died at that moment. I admired her briefly at that time, but..."

His eyebrows were tightly knitted together, and his palms pressed on the table seemed to be exerting force. It was a memory that he didn't want to recall that suddenly broke in. Rossol said painfully:

"That so-called ancient ruins was a trap set by Alice to lure the treasure-stealing group. If that were the case, it would be fine, but she accidentally broke her fairy when she was tying up the treasure-stealing group."

"Do you know what effect that potion has?" Rossol asked.

"Randomly turn a person into an animal." The attendant Yingzhai chewed the tea leaves in his mouth, interrupted Rossol's self-questioning, and waved his hand casually, saying: "I've heard about this from Alice a long time ago."

"I heard that one of the unlucky guys drew a pig, and accidentally got frightened and ran outside the ruins, where he landed next to two wild boars who were fighting for a mate. One of the wild boars happened to like the white and tender domestic pigs."

"If Alice hadn't arrived in time and directed the other adventurers who had transformed into animals to fight, I'm afraid the prize would have been taken away..."

The tail swayed slightly, the fox servant Yingzhai narrowed his eyes, smiled, and suddenly asked: "That unlucky guy was a novice at that time, could it be you?"

"... is another novice adventurer. Even though Alice has a bad reputation, the title of great adventurer is enough to attract many adventurers." Rossol explained calmly:

"After that, I understood one thing. Before I have enough strength to deal with bad people and bad situations, I must not participate in outdoor adventures, because no one can tell what will happen."

"So I went to Liyue to learn martial arts. I was favored by my master and learned martial arts that can cultivate qi. I trained my muscles and bones every day and became familiar with martial arts. Eventually, I became a martial arts master."

Rossol's eyebrows were raised, and his body seemed to be surrounded by a hard-to-see transparent gas, like a ferocious tiger or wolf. He said sternly: "This is my 13th commission since I made my debut as an adventurer. Don't think that I will betray my employer."

The samurai Yingsai was a little surprised: "But the commissions you received after your debut were all completed in the city. There was not a single commission that required you to go out into the wild. It seems that the martial arts you have spent many years training have no place to be used, right?"

"Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of ropes for ten years, right?"

That adventure was a lifelong benefit to Rossol. Not only did he realize the role of strength, he could also confidently say, "No matter how powerful your martial arts skills are, you still have to face too many bows and crossbows."

"The last thing the treasure-stealing group lacks is crudely made bows and crossbows. If I run into a group of more than five people, I will end up in humiliation. To be on the safe side, I have to train for another ten years."

"I hope you are practicing internal martial arts. After more than ten years, when you enter the period of qi and blood decline, the qi in your body will be extremely strong."

The attendant Yingzhai gave a sincere blessing and said, "Actually, I don't mean for you to betray your employer. I don't want Ningguang to come and cause trouble, because I already have a new idea."

"If I create multiple forged Qianqi cores and distribute them to the public, will those who are running for Ningguang's promise let me go? No, they definitely won't let me go."

The tea rippled with the tapping of his fingertips. The attendant Yingzhai said meaningfully: "I just want to see a look of sorrow on Ningguang's face. I don't care what method you use."

"It's a pity that Beidou is still thinking of hanging a banner on the Jade Pavilion to promote his Southern Cross Fleet." The attendant Yingzhai sighed lightly, "But compared to Beidou's regret, Ningguang's current reaction is more interesting."

"Perhaps she is trying to help people determine whether the Qianqi Core is real or fake, so that those who are full of confidence will return disappointed... and this gives me a more interesting idea."

◇

"Selling the Qianqi Core~ Not 998, not 99, just yuan! You can bring back a Qianqi Core for yuan, it's a sure win!"

Outside the construction site of Qun Yu Pavilion, a stall filled with Qianqi cores was set up. Lying on a recliner, slowly fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan, pressing her palms on the loudspeaker and tapping it gently, Ying lazily watched Paimeng soliciting customers.

"Paimon..."

"Yes, traveler!"

Their feet touched each other, and Paimon held his head high and answered seriously.

Ying yawned: "Do your job well and don't be lazy. The Mora you earn today will be your private money in the future. You are not working for me, you are working for yourself."

"Just don't forget me when you become successful. Remember who gave you the opportunity."

"No problem, Traveler!"

Paimon's eyes were firm, and he didn't look away: "Private Paimon, always loyal!"

"Good good..."

"I want to complain!"

The warm atmosphere was interrupted by a sudden angry question. A customer came to the table and slapped it hard, "Why is the Qianqi Core you sold me a fake?"

"You still want to buy genuine goods for 9.9 yuan? Remember, when this stall was set up here, it never said that all the goods sold here are genuine. Whether they are real or fake depends on your personal luck."

Paimon's eyes suddenly turned red as his private money was challenged. He said confidently, "If you think all the goods here are fake, go find the ore and forge the Qianqi Core yourself. Don't buy it here..."

"In fact, you were also thinking about whether you could get away with it at first, right? After all, you are not the first person to buy here. You know the probability that the Qianqi Cores on our stall are genuine!"

"But I see there's no real stuff on your stall!"

"You were unlucky and didn't buy the real thing. If you have the guts, go to the blacksmith shop in the city and ask if Paimon has ever taken the ore there to forge a real Qianqi Core."

"…If it's fake, we'll pay you ten times as much! This is the rule in Liyue Harbor."

"The rules of Liyue Harbor don't apply here in Paimeng. Either you forge it yourself or keep buying it."

The customer gritted his teeth and said, "Humph! I don't believe you can make so many fakes. I'll buy all the thousands of cores on the stall!"

"Okay." Paimon smiled instantly.

Ying's eyes widened a little, and she tapped her fingers on the armrest. In an instant, a bunch of Qianqi Cores appeared around her.

“Remember to restock.”
