After eating and drinking, Wendy and Lin Huan walked out of the tavern leisurely. The afternoon sun shone through the thin clouds, like a layer of delicate gauze, warmly and softly falling on the ground, making people feel relaxed and happy. Wendy happily pulled Lin Huan and came to the square outside the West Wind Cathedral again. He tiptoed lightly, and gently pushed the tall Lin Huan to the fountain with both hands, motioning her to sit down and rest. Then, he himself took a stance, and his slender fingers gently brushed the strings of the piano, which immediately produced a series of crisp and pleasant melodies.

Wendy cleared his throat, a smile on his face, and glanced at the crowd that was gradually gathering around him. That smile was like the first flower blooming in spring, instantly attracting more people's attention. Everyone's eyes were focused on him, full of anticipation, as if they were waiting for a precious gift from afar. After all, the bard Wendy's singing was loved by almost everyone in Mondstadt.

"Today, I am not telling you an old story that you are all familiar with." Wendy raised his chin slightly, his eyes flickering with mystery, and he slowly spoke: "This is a story that happened many years ago. In our neighboring country, Liyue, there are several chivalrous knights who came from afar and brought us a fresh and interesting story."

Wendy's voice was like a gurgling stream, flowing gently in people's hearts, arousing everyone's endless curiosity. As he spoke, a magnificent picture slowly unfolded in everyone's mind. Those young knights from Liyue all had unique skills. One of them was much older and was a solid backing for everyone in the team. He had superb swordsmanship and superb magic. He was gentle, patient and gentle, and won the trust of everyone; another was proficient in medicine, saving the dying and the wounded. He was young and talented, as if he was a messenger from heaven who came to the world; there was also a young man with a fiery temper and great ambitions, holding a spear. It was called a spear, but it was more like a long and heavy cane, just like his personality, as passionate as a flame... He became the soul of this adventure team, just like the clumsy and cute male protagonist in the familiar adventure story. In addition, there is a heroic female general who is not only skilled in martial arts, but also heroic and can drink a lot without getting drunk; there is also an eloquent Liyue dramatist who sings and exchanges art with Mondstadt's poets; and finally, there is a skilled painter who uses his brush to record every detail of this journey.

In the land of Mondstadt, they met many kind and brave Mondstadt people and experienced countless adventures and challenges together. In a fierce battle, the knights fought side by side with the warriors of Mondstadt to fight against the evil monsters and tame the unstable earth veins at that time. They were not afraid of strong enemies and moved forward bravely. With their courage and wisdom, they protected the peace and tranquility of Mondstadt. After the battle, the knights sat around the campfire with their friends in Mondstadt, sharing each other's stories and dreams. Their friendship was like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating each other's hearts.

Lin Huan sat aside, quietly listening to Wendy's story of the unknown past. As the plot progressed, she felt more and more that these characters seemed familiar. Wasn't this... the adventure story that her uncles and aunts loved to talk about?

"I see, Teacher Wendy..." Lin Huan said softly, with an incredible surprise in her voice, "My father once mentioned that in Mondstadt that spring, they met a bard and left a deep impression. Could it be you?" Her eyes sparkled, as if she saw a reunion across time and space. "Actually... if it was you I would really... not be surprised at all!"

Lin Huan lowered her head and chuckled, her thoughts drifting away. Uncle Ye, Uncle Yang, father, sister Yunxi, and the elders of Li Qin's family... those old people who are now respected in the family and in Liyue, high-ranking officials of Yujingtai, famous generals of Qianyan Army, the benevolent doctors of Bubulu, and the night walkers who guard Liyue from internal and external invasions together with Yaksha, one in the dark and one in the light... They are the pillars that hold up half of Liyue together with the Emperor... But once upon a time, they were also young people with high spirits! She imagined their unrestrained and free-spirited appearance, just like her brothers and sisters of the same generation, proud and unrestrained, with infinite longing for the future in their hearts. Young people travel, with apricot blossoms blowing all over their heads, who is the young man on the road, so romantic... This picture slowly unfolded in her mind, like a moving painting.

Especially Uncle Wen Yi from Tianquan Star, who always modestly said that he was just a person who liked reading. But Lin Huan knew that behind those heroic knights, he must have been a young man full of dreams and passion, perhaps a little shy, but with unknown talents and wisdom.

Thinking of this, Lin Huan couldn't help but smile slightly, and looked gently at the mottled light and shadow cast by the statue of the wind god in the distance. At that moment, her smile was brighter than the sun, and her eyes were full of yearning and admiration for the good old days.
