Chapter 39: The Blessing of the Wind God, the Girl's Waiting

The sizzling chili oil flowing on the tofu dotted with chopped green onions looks like the earth and forest are burning, which is daunting.

Wendy carefully scooped half a spoonful, but before he brought it to his nose, the fresh, spicy aroma made him cover his nose and sneeze.

"Deer hunters are not allowed to waste food. If you start eating, you must finish it!"

"If you give up now, I will help you finish this mapo tofu!"

Jiang Yi encouraged with a smile, "You are Mondstadt's number one bard, you are not afraid, are you?"

"Are you less courageous than Albert?"

Wendy touched her belly, acted crazy, and looked around.

This thing is horrible!

God's intuition told him that after eating it, something very bad would happen!

"Hey, I'm full!"

"I don't want the food behind!"

"I'll give you this mapo tofu back!"

After saying that, he ignored Jiang Yi's provocation, took advantage and prepared to escape.

Jiang Yi reached out and grabbed the corner of the other person's cloak and pulled him back.

He doesn’t dare to do that to other gods!

But Barbatos...

"You moved the spoon, finish this bite!"

"At least, I gave you a plate of coral fish. You won't be so disrespectful to me, right?" Jiang Yi said with excitement and a sense of blasphemy.

"Come on! Just one bite!"

"Since you're so uncooperative, I'll charge you double the price next time you come to the Deer Hunter!"

Jiang Yi was in great amusement, and the customers around him joined in the fun.

It is human nature to watch the fun and see others make fools of themselves.

Hearing Jiang Yi's threat, Wendy obviously hesitated.

"For the next visit to Deer Hunter..."

He muttered, hesitated for a while, closed his eyes, and downed half a spoonful in one gulp.

The red color visible to the naked eye rose from the neck to the forehead, bringing with it beads of sweat.

"Cheers to our warriors!" Jiang Yi decided to quit while he was ahead and let Wendy go.

There is no big difference between eating a bite of this stuff or eating the whole thing. Either way, it's extremely spicy.

"Great!"

"He ate it without blinking an eye. That's...hiccup...like me, the adventure king!"

A drunkard walked out of the Cat's Tail Tavern and stood by to watch the fun.

He staggered and hugged Wendy, boasting.

"I... I shared a bowl of hell-level mapo tofu with my friend last time, and I was blessed with the power of the fire element on the spot. I spit out three mouthfuls of fire and killed ten hillbillies."

"In the dream, I also obtained the Eye of the Fire Elemental God and fought alongside the 'Hero of the Dark Night'."

"Come on, have another bite!"

"Let's fight the Hilichurls together!"

Wendy opened her eyes, her eyes blurred with tears.

Looking at him, she took a hissing breath.

He fanned his tongue with both hands, spitting out strong winds.

The smell of chili pepper made the man unable to open his eyes, and his nose and tears were streaming.

A burning sensation raged across the skin.

A glowing boy seemed to float above his soul, bringing with him the flavor of mapo tofu.

Wind God——the favor of love!

"Water, water, water..." Wendy flew up and fell to the ground, jumping in anxiety.

When they grabbed people, they begged, "Quick, quick... give me water!"

"Your wind god Barbatos is going to die!"

"Woooo..."

Jiang Yi couldn't bear to look at this terrible look.

Before he was sent to the Knights of Favonius for cursing the gods, he was considerately handed a bottle of wine.

"Huh!" Wendy suddenly became energetic, and even the spicy taste could not stop his thirst.

He gulped down half the bottle and finally came back to life.

"It's a gift from an angel, new wine just put on the counter! Where did you get it from?"

Wendy forgave the mortal for his murder and asked curiously.

Jiang Yi smiled but did not answer. As the "wine taster" of Chenxi Winery, was it strange to get one or two bottles of new wine?

"How do you feel?" Another bottle of wine appeared in his hand and he poured himself a glass.

"The flavor from another world is indeed very aggressive, just like the attack of the God of Fire." Wendy's eyes lit up, she drank up her wine, exaggeratedly described this hell-level mapo tofu, and shamelessly asked for the new wine in Jiang Yi's hand.

"More, more! It's still so spicy!"

Jiang Yi poured a glass with a smile.

Just now, I just wanted to take a little revenge and didn't mean to cause any real unhappiness.

Now that the prank is over, it's time to mend relations.

After this incident, the wind god must have been deeply impressed by him and would think of him whenever he thought of spicy food.

At the same time, because of what the drunkard and Wendy said, he got new inspiration for the Mapo Tofu advertisement.

The power of the element of fire, the Eye of the God of Fire, and the attacks of the God of Fire all seem to be good selling points that can attract those desperate adventurers to come and try it.

Mondstadt, under the wind of freedom, has no shortage of warriors who are willing to die.

"You little bard, have you ever fought with the God of Fire?" Jiang Yi pretended not to know the other party's identity and joked.

"Not only the God of Fire, I also fought with the God of Rock, and stole the scepter of the God of Ice..." After drinking, Wendy's remarks were completely regarded as drunken nonsense by the people around him.

The God of Rock, the God of Fire, and the God of Ice are all among the seven gods in Teyvat who rule the world and are high above.

It is impossible for ordinary people to meet, let alone fight.

I’ve seen people bragging after drinking, but I’ve never seen anyone bragging so loudly.

You think you are the God of Wind!

Sure enough, bards like to sing legends randomly and put themselves into the stories.

You are the one who is often warned by the nuns in the church, and you are the one who slanders the God of Wind!

Today, if Jiang Yi hadn't been here, I would have to join the Knights of Favonius again.

"Awesome, awesome..." Jiang Yi remained silent.

Because according to his understanding, Wendy was indeed lying and bragging!

He should have been the one being beaten.

"What a pity, you are so powerful, but you can't conquer this delicious Mapo Tofu!"

Wendy was embarrassed.

"Jiang Yi, give me a regular version of Mapo Tofu!" a customer ordered.

"Okay! Wait a minute!"

Under Wendy's horrified and admiring gaze, Jiang Yi finished the plate of hellish magma in just a few gulps!

After a short break, I put on an apron, washed my hands, and returned to the kitchen.

"I look forward to meeting you next time, Mondstadt's most outstanding bard!" He bowed.

Wendy laughed.

Looking at this hidden many secrets, Jiang Yi seemed to know its true identity. He took out the glass ball "Eye of God" from his waist and transformed it into the xylophone "Felin".

For the excitement of the deer hunters, the old ballads are presented.

"Looking forward to seeing you next time, traveler from another world!"

"On behalf of the God of Wind, I wish you the best. May you see all the beautiful scenery in Teyvat, find a good match in Teyvat, and find your homeland!"

Invisible blessings are like the gentle breeze surrounding you.

……

Jiang Yi finished his day's work and walked out of the Deer Hunter to find two girls waiting.

"Great being of the future, you have grown again! You have returned from an endless journey, stepping through the time of the sun and moon, and have been protected by a mysterious being, returning with glory and wealth! Just like the hero in the epic, you have come before this princess again."

Fischl's green eyes sparkled with wisdom, a light that saw through everything.

Almost scared Jiang Yi who was so tired that his mind was not clear!

I thought she had discovered the protection of the spring spirit.

"Miss! I wanted to find you several times! You cried in your room at night, and you were eaten by the Hillichels!" Oz added from the side.

"Shut up! Oz!" Fischl's face turned red and he pinched Oz's crow's mouth.

"It's my fault for making the princess worry!" Jiang Yi felt warm in his heart.

He raised his arms, willing to accompany Fischl in his second year of high school.

"The princess' biography remains in my chest, transforming into the thunder of the Holy Judgement, illuminating the sky! The demons and monsters on the road are no match for it!"

"What protects me is the power of the princess and the Pure Land of Dark Night!"

"For this reason, I have brought the wind spirit from the distant Grape Kingdom and the wine industry as a gift of apology and gratitude to my most beautiful princess!"

Jiang Yi smiled and took out two shining crystal cores from his backpack.

One was given to Fischl, and the other was given to Amber who was trying to hold back her laughter.

"This one is for my most adorable master of language and archery!"
