Genshin Impact: A Scattered Soldier Traveling Back in Time

On the second floor of the Angel's Gift Tavern, near the railing, Yu and Sora were sitting at a drinking table, while Paimon was floating next to Sora.

There was a set of exquisite tea sets in front of him. He handled the tea leaves and tea sets skillfully, as if it was a carefully choreographed performance.

He gently picked up the teapot and poured the boiling water into the teacup. The tea leaves rolled and danced in the water, emitting a faint fragrance. Every movement seemed so elegant and skillful, as if he had become one with the tea set.

After a while, a pot of fragrant tea was brewed. Yan handed the teacup to Kong, who took it and slowly sipped it.

This was the nth time that Yu had brewed tea. He didn't like drinking, so Sora didn't drink, but just drank tea with him. Paimon also tried it, but gave up after taking a sip because the tea was too bitter.

He gently lifted the teacup, blew away the hot air on the surface, and then took a sip carefully. As soon as the tea entered his mouth, the bitter taste immediately spread on the tip of his tongue, but he did not rush to swallow it, but let the tea stay in his mouth for a while. Gradually, a faint sweetness emerged from the root of his tongue, blending with the previous bitterness to form a unique taste.

In his previous life, he liked bitter tea, the bitterer the better, just like his life, which was a tragedy from beginning to end.

He had drunk the same tea yesterday while waiting for Dainsleb, bitter from the beginning to the end. Some people had come and tried to get close to him, but after they drank the tea, they all left with a frown on their faces.

But Kong was there today too. He hesitated for a moment and did not take out his own tea. Instead, he brewed the tea provided by Charles. After all, not everyone liked that kind of pure bitter tea like he did.

But after taking a few sips, he found that he liked this kind of tea. This feeling of sweet after bitter made him feel extremely comfortable. It was a very strange feeling. He had drunk this kind of tea before, but he could not appreciate it before. But he did not hate this change. After all, people always change.

"Yan, the investigation you are talking about means drinking tea here?" Paimeng Piao said dissatisfiedly.

"If you don't want to follow me in the investigation, you can go back and have a rest. It's the same with or without you." Yu put down the teacup in his hand and said indifferently.

"you……"

Paimeng glared at Yan angrily. Why did this guy always like to pick on him?

"Paimon is right. We have been here for a whole morning. Can't you tell us the specific reason?" Kong put down his teacup and looked at Yan.

To be honest, Kong was getting a little impatient waiting. He drank a lot of tea this morning and went to the toilet several times. If he met Saxtonford now, he would make sure that he would let the other party drink enough!

(Saxon Stanford: No need to)

No, who is Sakastan? Why do I have such strange thoughts in my mind?

Kong shook his head, getting rid of the strange thoughts in his mind.

This is too weird, he actually wants people to drink his urine, how is this possible? Yes, it must be an illusion, yes, it is an illusion!

After hearing Kong's question, Yan stopped arguing with Paimon. Although the other party's frustrated look was very funny, he still had to be moderate. If he went too far, the other party would stop playing with him and it would be a lot less fun.

Why do I feel like I'm becoming more and more strange? I wasn't like this before.

Well, it must be the author’s fault, not me!

"I've been here so long because I'm waiting for Dainsleib," said Yun, looking at Sora, "I thought you had guessed it, so I didn't ask."

Kong felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. He just came here yesterday afternoon, so how could he know all this?

Yan turned his gaze towards the door of the tavern. To be honest, he was not sure whether Dainsleb would come again, but there was nothing he could do. He had no idea where the other party had gone. He could only try his luck here. Maybe the other party would come again?

"Are you guys waiting for someone here?"

Diluk walked up and stood beside them.

"It's Master Diluk. Long time no see," Paimon was the first to greet Diluk. "We are waiting for a man named Dainsleb here. Does Master Diluk know about this?"

"It's been a long time, but I haven't heard of Dainsleib." Diluk looked at Paimon expressionlessly, as if someone owed him money.

"If you want to find someone, you might as well go to the Knights to ask. Although the people in the Knights are unreliable, I don't think they can fail to do even a small task like finding someone."

"No need, it's not a big deal. We don't need the help of the Knights." Yu rejected Diluk's proposal.

Dainsleb is quite mysterious and powerful, and is closely connected to the Abyss. The fewer people involved, the better.

"Diluk, would you like to sit down and have some tea with me?" Kong invited Diluk.

"Then I'll obey your command." Diluk said and sat down.

He poured another cup of tea and handed it to Diluk.

The three of them sat together and sipped tea in silence. Only Paimon was floating in the air, wanting to say something, but when he saw them remain silent, he closed his mouth again.

Is this tea really that delicious?

Paimon hesitated a little. She picked up the cup of tea that she had taken a sip of and put back on the table.

Looking at the tea that had already cooled down, Paimeng closed his eyes and took a big sip.

Paimon opened his eyes instantly, revealing a very uncomfortable expression. It was so painful...

Paimon quickly flew to the side and spit out all the tea.

Yan showed a sly smile. Paimeng's tea was different from the tea they drank because he used his own tea leaves to brew it, which was a purely bitter tea, and a very bitter one at that.

Because the things in the storage space would not go bad, he stored some of them in it and took a sip when he had nothing to do.

When he poured it for Paimon, he suddenly had an idea and used his ability to quietly switch it. If you look closely, you will find that the colors of the two teas are actually different, one of them is greener.

Kong looked at Yan helplessly. He felt that Yan had changed a lot since their last conversation. He would never do such a prank before. However, this was also a good thing. At least it showed that the other party had come out of the shadow of the past.

Paimon swore that he would never drink tea again because it was too bitter.

Paimon flew back and took a big sip of water, and the bitter taste in his mouth finally faded away.

At this time, the door of the tavern was opened. He turned his head and found that Dainsleib had walked in. He also came to try his luck and see if he could find him, and take a rest at the same time.

Seeing this, Yan stood up and looked at Deinsreb. Deinsreb also noticed Yan and looked up at him.

"Yan, is he the person you are looking for?"

Sora also stood up and looked at the person standing at the door.

Without saying anything, he walked downstairs.

"Diluk, please keep this account first. We will return it to you when we come back." Kong turned his head to look at Diluk, with a hint of apology in his tone.

“No thanks. Just consider it my treat this time.” Diluk put down his teacup and said calmly.

"Thank you very much."

After saying this, Kong also walked away.

Seeing that both of them had gone down, Paimon put down the cup in his hand and flew down as well.
