After meeting up with the man and Kong, Wendy rummaged around and immediately realized that he hadn't brought any alcohol with him!
"Xiao." Poor Wendy threw herself into Xiao's arms, turning left and right and whining, "Waaah, what should I do? I didn't bring any alcohol." Xiao's temples throbbed. Wendy would become restless without alcohol. Although alcohol would calm her down a bit, most of the time Wendy just wanted to stick to him.
Is this the general atmosphere of Mondstadt?
That's outrageous.
However, Xiao isn't that annoying. The combination of Venti's natural Cecilia floral scent and Mondstadt fruit wine scent is particularly pleasant, and even karmic obstacles dare not show themselves under Venti's deliberate suppression.
"Street singers really love drinking, huh?" Paimon twirled in the air, hands on his hips, and came to Sora's side. "The traveler still has some wine on him. If you don't slack off here, Sora will give you some." "Paimon, really," Sora said, holding the Fire Fairy in one arm, looking at Paimon speechlessly. "What's wrong with that? I'm really craving good food right now. It's cold and I'm hungry here, ugh..." Paimon lowered his head, pouting.
"Wine...wine..." Wendy's eyes lit up, but here you can't slack off before you can drink wine.
"So, what's up with this guy?" Kong's gaze fell on the unconscious man who was bound hand and foot. She squatted down and checked him over, finding that he was just unconscious and otherwise unharmed. "Oh, him? He kidnapped a girl and experimented on her. Look at that girl, how pitiful she is." Wendy hugged Xiao's slender waist, raised her head from her abs, and pointed to the girl she had placed in the corner, still enveloped in the breeze.
As a girl herself, Hu Tao immediately went to the girl's side. Smelling the strong smell of blood, she became angry and a stab appeared in her hand. She went to the man's side and was about to stab him.
"Hu Tao, calm down, calm down." Kong quickly supported Hu Tao from behind, while Paimon hurriedly carried the Fire Fairy and flew around in the air.
"No way! Giving this man a VIP package at the Hall of Rebirth is too good for him! I'm going to tear him to pieces and imprison his soul!" Hu Tao was clearly enraged. Xiao sighed, and in a flash, he appeared behind Hu Tao, knocking her unconscious with a chop to the neck. Wendy fared worse; without anything to support her weight, she collapsed to the ground.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch." Wendy lay on the ground for a while, then sat up on her own. She rubbed her sore bottom, stood up, dusted off non-existent dust, walked over to the man, kicked him with her little leather shoes, and said, "Hey, stop pretending to be dead. You've been awake for a while, haven't you?"
The man heard this, paused in his breathing, and continued to play dead.
"Oh? Still not awake? Hehe, traveler, do you have any good stuff on you? There's a patient here." The man was about to breathe a sigh of relief as the footsteps faded into the distance when he heard the playful male voice say, "Oh my, so the traveler has this good stuff on him, hehe, hook fruit, wow, and a lizard tail, butterfly wings, and slime condensate, how wonderful."
Then came a series of rummaging sounds. A moment later, a delicate fragrance wafted into the man's nose. His previously relaxed body suddenly tensed up, and he felt his mouth being pried open, and then some liquid was poured in.
"Ugh!" The man couldn't keep up the act any longer and vomited the liquid out with a flip. As for the taste, well, it was a mix of slippery slime, the texture of a lizard's tail, the glitter from butterfly wings, and the flavor of hook berries. And Wendy wasn't like Diona, who had the ability to turn any unpalatable ingredient into a delicious drink. She just casually stirred it and fed it to the man.
"Oh my, you're finally awake! How is it? Doesn't it taste great? Hehe, this is a drink made by the best bard in Teyvat. You got a good deal." Wendy squatted down next to the man, looking at him with a smile, her eyes full of undisguised smugness, like a little fox who had succeeded in her scheme.
"Is the food from the street performers really that good?" Paimon had just finished settling Kurumi with Xiao and came to Sora's side. Hearing Wendy's boast, he was skeptical. Wendy blinked, held out her hand to Paimon, and smiled brightly: "Then, Paimon, want to try it?" Paimon looked at Wendy's bright, harmless smile, then at the man vomiting, shook his head, and hid behind Sora.
Wendy shrugged, turned to look at the man, poked him with her index finger, and asked, "Hey, do you guys have some kind of plan? Otherwise, how could you be so ruthless to such a cute girl?" "Don't even think about it, I'm not telling you." The man looked at the group of people, who were all young and looked quite innocent, so he became tough and shouted, "I advise you to let me go right now, or our boss will definitely not let you off the hook."
Upon hearing this, Wendy deliberately feigned fear, even dramatically sitting on the ground: "Ugh, so scary." "Hmph, now you're scared, huh? Let me go..." "Xiao, you handle this." Wendy stuck her tongue out at the man and called Xiao over. Xiao instantly appeared beside the man, staring intently at him for a moment. Then, with a gentle flick of the end of Pu Yuan's spear, it wedged perfectly into the rope binding the man, dragging him outside.
All that could be heard were constant screams from outside, each one piercing the skulls of the viewers. Even the residents of the Disease Star who were lurking in the live broadcast room had nightmares for several nights in a row after hearing them. In their dreams, their enemies and the people they hated the most kept whispering in their ears, and they were soon driven to insanity by the torment.
However, that's all in the future. After all, karma is like that, constantly eroding people's minds. Those who are not steadfast have long been eliminated. Even Xiao, who has been accompanied by karma for many years, needs to take Lianli Zhenxin Powder to barely maintain his senses. Wendy has Lianli Zhenxin Powder given to her by Zhongli, and Kong also has some, also to prevent Xiao from suddenly falling into karma and being unable to extricate himself.
Before long, Xiao dragged the man back. The man's crotch was already wet, and his face was still filled with fear. After Xiao casually threw him aside, Wendy immediately took out her lyre and played beautiful songs and sang ancient poems. Only then did Xiao's reddened eyes slowly clear up.
"I'll talk, I'll talk, please don't, please don't kill me." The man was no longer the arrogant man he once was; now he was a lamb to the slaughter.
