The most important thing is that it has fewer words and more pictures, so it is not difficult to read.
"I'm sorry for reading your books without permission."
Closing the book in his hand, the young figure moved to the side to make room for Cole.
Although her voice was very childish, her tone was very steady.
It was as if she was not an ignorant child, but an all-knowing wise woman.
"Didn't I tell you? I will come to see you when I have time. The road from Xumi to Huachengguo is very dangerous."
Cole sat down next to her and asked with a hint of helplessness.
At this moment, she finally understood Tinari's feelings.
"Don't worry, this body is fine. I just need to stay by your side. You have a very comfortable aura about you."
The little guy slowly closed his eyes, moved closer to Cole, and whispered.
In the cold and lonely atmosphere, the warm breath from Cole was like the afterglow of the setting sun, making her feel warm all over.
This was a warmth she hadn't felt in a long time.
Chapter 497 Tianquan Star
Liyue Harbor is definitely one of the most difficult places to manage in the entire continent of Teyvat.
As the most prosperous seaport, it was initially managed by Emperor Rock King alone, but as the old man delegated power, these affairs were gradually distributed to the Seven Stars and Eight Gates.
Ningguang, as the Tianquan Star, took over the power and laws.
Throughout the ages.
This executive officer named Anatoly was different from the Tartaglia she had dealt with before.
This is a veteran who is good at playing tricks and intelligence.
According to her intelligence, many of the leaked secrets were done by the other party's intelligence network.
Moreover, the other side's men can be seen in many places in the seven countries.
The most terrifying thing is that this guy himself is an extremely terrifying assassin.
It is said that before he became an executive officer, countless powerful people died at his hands.
Some big names who have been famous for a long time will never see the sun the next day once they are on his assassination list.
According to Ningguang's statistics, his assassination success rate is 100%.
The Emperor appeared at the border between Mondstadt and Liyue, and appeared in Mondstadt with the Twelfth Executioner of the Fatui.
There seemed to be no related clues, but Ningguang noticed the traces between the two.
Because Ningguang really couldn't imagine that after the expedition of Mondstadt's grand commander, there was someone else who could make the Emperor so ostentatious.
It seems that after being suppressed by me for a while, Northland Bank finally couldn't help but ask for help from its master
Whatever, I have gained a lot of benefits recently anyway.
I've been more restrained in this regard recently.
Chapter 498 Pantalone
“Hua La La…”
Liyue is a country near the sea, and perhaps because of this, it always rains in coastal areas.
The rain hits the tiles, making a dripping sound.
They gathered together, slid down the tiles, and fell under the eaves.
Unlike the rain on Bayun Island caused by the evil spirit, the rain on Liyue gives people a very peaceful feeling.
In this kind of weather, it might be a good idea to sit by the window and read a few books.
In the rain, a man in a black windbreaker trotted along the slippery cobblestone road.
"Old man, can I come in and take shelter from the rain?"
Holding a broad leaf in his hand, Bai Luo stood politely outside the fence and shouted to the people in the house.
Although the black windbreaker he was wearing was impervious to water and fire, it was also bulletproof.
But it's not comfortable to be drenched in the rain like this.
"Come in, young man, before you get gonorrhea."
Logically speaking, in a place like Guiliyuan where there is no village or shop nearby, they should not let outsiders in so casually if someone came here to take shelter from the rain.
But this guy Bai Luo, no matter how naughty he is, he has a good appearance.
She can’t be called stunningly beautiful, but her erhu playing is enough to make fish sink to the depths and geese fall to the ground.
Coupled with his deceptive smile, no one would find him threatening unless they dealt with him regularly.
For example, now, he wanted to enter the house, but was blocked by a wooden fence door.
That embarrassed look made people laugh.
"Young man, are you from Liyue Harbor?"
The old man, wearing a straw raincoat, opened the gate and said with a chuckle.
"How do you know that?"
Bai Luo asked with a hint of "surprise".
"You city kids don't know how to open this kind of fence gate. Only people like us who have lived outside the city for a long time know how to use it."
After helping Bai Luo open the door, the old man made a gesture of invitation and took Bai Luo into the house.
The old woman handed over a pair of bleached towels and a bowl of hot tea.
Bai Luo didn't dislike it and gulped down half a bowl.
"Are you back from Wangshu Inn?"
After Bai Luo drank the tea, the old man had already taken off his raincoat, sat next to him and started chatting with him.
Most of the people coming from Dihuazhou have stayed at Wangshu Inn.
"Well, I was invited by a friend to go to Mondstadt a few days ago, but there was a dragon disaster there, and it took a lot of effort to get back."
After putting down the tea bowl, Bai Luo said with lingering fear.
His words may seem fake, but if you think about it carefully... ...they are not wrong.
It just simplifies some information that cannot be known by others.
"Oh, a dragon disaster! That's terrible."
In fact, the old man had no idea what a dragon disaster was.
To him, perhaps this was just like the plague of insects in the fields in autumn
"That's not the case. From now on, I'll stay in Liyue Harbor and not go anywhere else."
"Yes, our Liyue is still the best."
"Speaking of which, old man, is it really safe for you to live in a place like this?"
The rain was still falling outside, Bai Luo said this intentionally or unintentionally.
Although it is not far from Liyue Harbor, Guiliyuan is one of the most active places for treasure-stealing groups.
No one can guarantee that those cruel guys will not come to your door.
That's why he used broad leaves to shield himself from the rain instead of an oil-paper umbrella.
The oil-paper umbrella is still in the form of a weapon and is hidden in his windbreaker.
He was afraid that the houses here were occupied by bad guys.
When you go out, there are some things you have to be careful of.
"Don't worry, there are often Qianyan soldiers patrolling here. Besides, Mr. Zhu's inn next door has also hired a lot of guards. Ordinary bad guys don't dare to come here."
Speaking of Boss Zhu, he is also a strange man.
When other people open a shop, they usually do so in densely populated areas.
But what about him
There is Wangshu Inn in the north and Liyue Harbor in the south.
People who rest in Wangshu Inn will not stay here, and people coming out of Liyue Harbor are generally rested enough and will not stay in a hotel here.
He is caught in the middle and it is very difficult for him to do business.
He has complained more than once that if the business could not continue, he would have to sell the store here and go back to inherit his grandfather's three jade mines and make a living.
Tsk tsk tsk
"So there is an inn here? I wouldn't have bothered you two if I had known."
After hearing the old man's words, Bai Luo showed a slightly ashamed expression.
Fortunately, the people who know him are not here, otherwise they would definitely complain.
Do you know what shame is
"Even if you go there, there won't be anyone there. Boss Zhu opens the shop entirely based on his mood. He may not open the door even if you go there."
Waving his hand nonchalantly, the old man explained.
This is also one of the reasons why he let Bai Luo in.
However, as the conversation between the two deepened, the old man also heard some things about Bai Luo.
"Come to think of it, you're going back to Liyue Harbor, right?"
"Well, I'll set off when the rain stops."
That being said, Bai Luo decided to wait and see before deciding whether to enter Liyue City.
But based on the clues he has collected so far, Tartaglia may not really be in Liyue City.
"If it's not urgent, you can wait a moment. I will have guests from Liyue Harbor this afternoon. You can stay with them and have someone to take care of you on the way."
The old man seems to be very concerned about the people who come back from abroad.
Bai Luo could vaguely guess why.
It is estimated that the old couple also has a rebellious child who is traveling somewhere on the mainland at this time.
Perhaps they also hope that when their children encounter difficulties, there will be kind people like them to lend a helping hand
"Thank you very much, sir. I wonder who your guest is..."
"He is a kind-hearted gentleman. Our family has received a lot of kindness from him."
When he said this, Bai Luo could feel the admiration in his heart.
He also began to take an interest in this so-called kind-hearted gentleman.
Time passed slowly, but the sound of rain did not decrease.
Bai Luo has traveled to various countries in the continent of Teyvat and knows some folk legends and strange stories.
It didn't seem awkward when chatting with this old gentleman.
During this period, some marked people also entered his sensing range.
However, this place is close to Liyue Harbor, and there are quite a few people who have been marked by him.
So as long as it’s not Tartaglia and Emperor.
And Xiao.
He didn't care much about the others.
About half an hour later, there was a noise in the rain.
Two figures, one tall and one short, walked on the wet stone road, wearing straw raincoats and bamboo hats, and came to the outside of the fence.
