"Aha!"
╭(●｀?′●)╯
"little things……"
(*??????)?
"I've caught you again!"
(●′?｀)?
Not far away, Annie was cheering loudly.
Then, when Ying and Paimon looked at each other in the distance, they realized that she had grabbed a big squirrel by the soft skin behind its neck and picked it up.
And the little thing naturally started to struggle desperately with its teeth bared, but unfortunately, no matter how much it scratched or bit, it couldn't touch little Annie's little hand.
"..."
Paimon ignored him and just continued flying forward. He didn't know what he had discovered.
"Say it!"
^-^)~''
"Do you want it minced and braised, or do you want it freshly grilled?"
|?˙?˙)?
Annie approached the little squirrel and asked such a cruel question seriously.
'!
'
squeak!
Maybe he sensed Anne's malice, or maybe it was just animal instinct, in order to gain that glimmer of hope?
Anyway!
The little thing suddenly screamed, and then the originally cute and cute little thing suddenly became extremely ferocious, and suddenly stretched out its sharp claws and exposed teeth and rushed towards Annie's face and eyes, clawing and biting. .
"ha!"
╭(′▽`)╯
"Can't bite!"
(????)
Unfortunately, Annie could easily avoid it by just shrinking her head, so how could she be hurt by such a small animal?
"little things!"
?(??????????)????
"Since you have such a bad temper, you must like to be roasted by fire, right?"
(?′ω`?)
Nodding, the other party's reaction made Anne directly make the decision for him.
Of course, the most important thing is that she doesn't seem to have that kind of extra kitchen utensils on hand now, and she is not a professional chef, so the cooking method will inevitably be relatively simple, except for direct baking, then There really aren't many choices.
"Annie, wait!"
"call!"
"Don't run too fast, you'll lose me again later..."
At this time, Ying from behind finally caught up, and then began to greet weakly.
"It doesn't matter if you lose me, they will definitely find you!"
(?3?)
Anne said indifferently.
After all, these two people can walk so far every day, and the direction is very clear. As long as Queen Anne wants to look for it, she will definitely not fail to find it.
"??"
"Annie?"
"What are you doing?"
"What's the use of catching it?"
After finally catching up with Annie, Ying first sighed, and then wiped the fine beads of sweat on his forehead while looking a little surprised at Annie, who seemed to never run out of energy and always liked to jump around. asked the hateful guy who was still tired from jumping.
"Of course I'll catch it and eat it!"
(???)
"Last time, you guys were watching me under the tree, and then I accidentally let it run away. Now I finally caught it."
(????)
Annie said with a proud look on her face, and at the same time, she handed the little thing she was holding to the surprised young lady and said like offering a treasure in front of her.
'squeak!
'
When he saw an unfamiliar face, the squirrel would not miss the opportunity. He screamed again and tried to pull towards Ying's face with all his teeth and claws.
"!
"
"ah!
"
Ying was caught off guard, and of course he quickly backed away subconsciously. Then, he didn't know what he tripped under his feet, and he fell down and sat on the grass.
"??"
(???.???)????
Seeing this, Anne blinked inexplicably at first.
"Sister Ying..."
(??ω???‖)?
"You are really useless. A little squirrel can scare you like this?"
Hahaha??(???*)
Immediately afterwards, of course, she started laughing loudly and unscrupulously, not caring that the reason why the other party fell was entirely because of her reckless action just now.
"Woo..."
"Well, it hurts..."
Ying frowned and rubbed her back, then slowly stood up and protested loudly with dissatisfaction:
"hateful!"
"Annie, I'm not afraid of squirrels, I'm scared of you!"
"Please! Please don't rub that kind of dangerous thing on other people's faces casually. Faces are very important to girls!"
How could Ying be afraid of squirrels or something?
In fact, she was not afraid of dragons in the past. In fact, she did not dare to fight even gods. Although she did not fight them in the end due to various reasons, her courage was definitely not as bad as the other party said. .
"Danger?"
(⊙o⊙*)
"How can such a little thing be dangerous?"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
However, from Annie's point of view, it didn't matter what the other person said about his face. She had never cared about that kind of thing.
So, after looking at the grinning little squirrel in her hand, and then looking at the fierce little squirrel that was still trying to scratch her face and eyes, she thought about it and simply grabbed the other person's arm. Tails, just like when he punished the bad old president in the Fairy Tail guild, opened his arms and swung the squirrel in his hand at high speed.
Of course!
Back then, that bad old man had been pushed out of office by her a long time ago, and after her, President Anne, left, the new guild leader probably won't be the other party, but whether it will be Erza or Mirajane, She remains unknown for the time being.
Anyway, as she was wandering around in the world of Teyvat, she would definitely not think about such insignificant things.
"..."
Looking at the poor little animal that was slapped away by little Annie, and then rolled its eyes and passed out when it stopped, Ying didn't even know what to say to him.
"but……"
"Annie, are you sure this squirrel is the one you ran away from last time?"
"you sure?"
Then, Ying stared at the poor little thing, and then asked softly with some fun.
The place where they met was two full days away, and a squirrel obviously couldn't and couldn't run that far. Therefore, she was very sure that little Annie must have caught the wrong person. This one definitely didn't. It will be the one the opponent encountered before!
"Huh?"
(*ˉ?ˉ*;)
"Is not it?"
(???.???)????
Anne was a little surprised and picked it up to take a look.
"in spite of!"
(???3?)
"Anyway, they are all about the same length. If someone says it is, then it is, and if it is not, then it is!"
o(′^｀)o
Annie said haughtily.
In her opinion, there is no need to worry about that kind of small problem. Regardless of whether it is real or not, since they all look the same and are about the same size, they probably taste the same, so let’s just leave it at that. She won't mind if it's so spicy!
"Hello!"
"What are you two doing over there?"
"come here quickly!"
"Look, what's that in front of you?"
At this time, Paimon in the distance flew to the edge of an upward cliff. Then, she seemed to have discovered something good, and she kept waving excitedly towards Annie and Ying, and shouted loudly. He motioned for them both to hurry over.
"!
"
!(;?o?)o
"Is there anything delicious?"
?(????)?
Seeing Paimon, a little boy who also likes to eat delicious things like herself, waving so excitedly over there, Annie was shocked, and then she immediately threw away the squirrel she had finally caught, and then A flash of light flashed towards that place.
"Eh?"
"this……"
"Don't you want dinner?"
"All right."
Looking at the poor little squirrel that was still unconscious and motionless after being thrown to the ground by Annie, and then looking at the two people who were startled on the edge of the cliff in the distance, Ying thought for a while and could only shake his head in confusion, and then Sighing, he gritted his teeth and gathered up all his strength to run quickly and chase the two men again.
"Really..."
"What a bully!"
Those two hateful guys in front, one of them can fly, and the other abuses flash or teleportation magic. No one will take care of or consider her, a poor girl who can only use her legs to walk!
Thinking about it, this made Ying feel a little bit resentful and dissatisfied.
Of course, dissatisfaction is still dissatisfaction, and complaints are still complaints, but she still needs to walk her own path, and their two little guys will not be kind enough to give her a ride.
"Wow!"
(?˙o˙?)
"So many cranes..."
(⊙.⊙)
"They all look so fat!"
?(ˉ﹃ˉ?)
"Decided!"
(??????)??
"Sister Ying, let's eat roasted crane tonight!"
(?′?`?)
Staring at the flocks of big white birds above the lake in the distance, Annie's eyes widened. Then, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva and said, and she was a little eager to try.
"!
"
"I'm not talking about the crane!"
"It's the statue of the Seven Heavens God!"
"besides!"
"The scenery here is so beautiful. That's more important than the food, isn't it?"
After discovering that the focus of a certain troubled little girl seemed to have nothing to do with what he wanted to show the two of them, and that they had completely different meanings, Paimon floating in mid-air naturally waved his hand. Little Fist corrected loudly with an annoyed look on his face.
"No!"
(?╭╮?)
“People think food is the most important thing!”
(???3?)
Without thinking twice, Anne dismissed the other person's point of view without hesitation.
"The scenery and statues are inedible, so why would people bother with them?"
(′～`●)
"People think the flying cranes are more beautiful, and they must be very delicious."
(????-)
"It must be very fragrant when roasted..."
(?′?﹃?`?)
"correct!"
(?ω?)
"People once learned a way to make delicious food: first use mud to build a small cone-shaped tower, then use wood to burn the whole thing red, and then put the treated birds, such as that The delicious crane is wrapped in clean lotus leaves and wet mud, and then stuffed into a red-hot conical tower. The red-hot mud is pushed down and buried, and then you can eat it deliciously after waiting for two hours. of meat."
ψ(｀?′)ψ
"I heard it will be very fresh that way!"
(?′?`?)
Anne introduced seriously.
Although, she had never operated like that, but that didn't stop her from deciding to give it a try later.
Anyway, there are many cranes by the lake, and they look very big, and the mud lotus leaves are also ready-made. It is simply an ideal place for experiments. The ingredients and tools are all ready at once. , simply don’t want it to be too perfect.
Also, it doesn't matter even if she doesn't know how to do it. When the time comes, she will let the little bear do it for her. And by then, even if she messes up and it doesn't taste good, she can put all the blame on the idiot Tibbers?
(…)
(●￣?￣●)
"call!"
"So, so tired..."
"What were you just talking about?"
Until then, Ying finally trotted from a distance and climbed to the top of the cliff. Then, while holding her knees and breathing heavily, she weakly asked Annie and Paimon once again, who were arguing and confronting each other.
"We are talking about the Seven Heavenly Gods Statue!"
At this time, Paimon said bitterly.
"We're talking about roasted cranes!"
And this was undoubtedly Anne's statement. The two of them answered Ying's questions almost in unison, leaving the other party stunned.
"!
"
"It's not like that!"
"She's talking nonsense!"
"Pamon just said something else!"
Hearing this, before Ying could speak, Paimon quickly turned around and shouted angrily at Annie, correcting her and shouting coquettishly.
"that is!"
(?????)
"What I just talked about was how to eat those cranes!"
Q(`⌒′Q)
Annie stared back without any politeness at all, and at the same time waved her fist at the opponent flying in mid-air.
Anyway, no matter what the other party said, she decided that tonight, she would find a good place to camp by the lake, and then burn mud, roast cranes, and have a big meal!
(…)
(●￣?￣●)
"..."
"All right!"
Looking at the two little guys confronting each other and refusing to give in, Ying, who had long been accustomed to this, sighed.
"I'd better watch it myself."
So, she felt dumbfounded. After taking a breath to regain her strength, she slowly stood up straight, turned around and took a few steps forward. She went straight to the edge of the cliff and began to look down at the distant area. She couldn't help but marvel at the scenery of the lakes and mountains.
"ah……"
"What a nice view……"
"It's so beautiful!"
Then, Ying, who was stunned for a moment by the natural and harmonious beauty of distant lakes, mountains, cliffs, green trees, and leisurely birds and animals, naturally couldn't help but sigh.
"Shocking, right?"
"That's Xingluo Lake!"
"This is the Valley of Falling Stars. It is said that the lake was formed by falling stars, and stars are symbols of gods, so people erected the statues of the Seven Heavenly Gods here."
Paimon flew to Ying's side and echoed, and glared back angrily at a little girl on the side who didn't understand appreciation.
Then, she continued to add:
"fluorescent!"
"look!"
"Over there, in the middle of the island in the middle of the lake, is the statue of the Seven Heavens God!"
Paimon held out his fingers excitedly and said proudly.
"ah?"
"Seven Heavenly God Statue?"
"That is……"
Following Paimon's instructions, Ying first frowned slightly. Then, she easily saw a tall stone statue standing in the center of the lake. Then, there seemed to be some kind of magical power lingering on it?
But she didn't know what it was specifically. After all, the distance here was still a little too far.
"Yes!"
"It is the Seven Heavenly God Statue!"
"The statues of gods are scattered across the continent, symbolizing that the seven gods protect the world!"
"at the same time!"
"That also symbolizes the seven elements that make up this world!"
Paimon nodded vigorously and began to explain clearly, as if he was very familiar with this area.
"And among the seven elemental gods, the one over there is the god who controls the 'wind'!"
"Although Paimon doesn't know which god you are looking for, Paimon will bring you here to have a look first, but he has his own reasons!"
Blinking, looking at Ying who was still standing stupidly on the cliff looking into the distance, looking at the statue of the God of Winds for a long time without speech, Paimon said so playfully and contentedly.
"cut!"
(ˉ▽￣~)~~
"What's the reason? Isn't it because it's relatively close here?"
??(??￣?￣)????
At this time, Annie, who had just been arguing with Paimon, suddenly flashed back. Moreover, she found a large bouquet of flowers from nowhere. She was sucking on it and was full of flowers. Face exposed Paimon's little trick with disdain.
"you!
"
"It's not because of the proximity!"
After hearing this, Paimon was naturally furious and was ready to argue with Annie again!
"I did it because..."
"because……"
It's a pity that for some reason, she couldn't tell the reason for a while.
"Na!"
?(*^▽^*)
"Sister Ying, do you want to eat this nectar?"
(?ω?)
"It's very sweet!"
?(′?`?) Delicious.
It's a pity that Annie suddenly stopped paying attention to the flying little thing, and directly handed a delicious flower that could suck nectar to Ying.
"Eh?"
"This is……"
Having just been attracted by Paimon's words, she wanted to continue listening, but now she was interrupted by Annie. After being stunned for a moment, Yingzai had no choice but to reach out her hand and take the cigarette that was exuding. Flowers with a rich, sweet scent.
"That's a sweet flower!"
"snort!"
"They are usually used to make sugar. If you drink the nectar directly, it will be very fragrant and sweet, but eating too much can be bad for children's teeth."
"This is how it should be eaten..."
Paimon explained seriously. Then, she looked at little Annie who was sucking happily, and then looked at her who was also sniffing and licking it tentatively. She couldn't help it, so she also flew over. And while pretending to say it, he planned to take two of them from Annie's arms to satisfy his craving.
As for the things she didn't finish talking about just now, she can wait until she finishes eating and drinking.
"!
"
!(;?o?)o
"Wow!"
!? (?''??)?
Unfortunately, Annie dodged in a flash, without giving the little Paimon a chance to take something from her arms.
"Didn't you say that eating it is bad for children's teeth?"
(??ˇεˇ??)
"so……"
?乛?乛?
"You'd better stop eating it!"
(????-)?
"hey-hey!"
(?￣?￣?)
Then, she jumped towards the stunned and angry Paimon, who made a big face and sarcastically retorted.
"you!
"
"hateful!"
"I'm furious!"
Seeing that a bad little girl was openly retaliating and treating him differently, Paimon was so angry that he did somersaults in the air several times.
"you!"
“I’ll pick it myself later, so I don’t want to eat yours!
"
"snort!"
However, in the end, when she thought that she couldn't seem to beat little Annie, she could only say so hatefully and arrogantly, and prepared to use her advantage of being able to fly to pick it up.
"there is none left!"
|???ω??)???
"Within a few kilometers around, all the sweet words that can be seen have been picked off by others!"
?(?ˉ??ˉ?)
Unfortunately, Anne said that she had just taken advantage of the opportunity between the two of them to talk, and in a few flashes, she had picked all the sweet flowers near the lake.
"The Sword Comes"
Anyway, people probably picked these flowers on weekdays, so there weren't many. She quickly showed up and looked around, and only picked a mere nine flowers in total. If the other party wanted to eat them, they would probably have to wait at least one or two. Months until they grow back.
"you!
"
"snort!"
"The worst case scenario is that I won't eat it!"
Although he really wanted to eat it, Paimon, who was not going to give in easily and bow his head, finally continued to look away haughtily.
"Anyway!"
"That's Starfall Lake, one of the most beautiful places near Mondstadt!"
"Everyone here in Mondstadt knows that words and poems will float in the wind. So, Ying, I was just thinking that the god who controls the wind will definitely know the news about your brother. It must be like that!"
After saying that, after glaring at Annie fiercely, Paimon flew along a road to the distant Xingluo Lake while waving to the somewhat uneasy Ying.
"Let's go, Ying!"
"Let's go to that statue and have a look. Maybe there will be some clues?"
"certainly!"
"I don't know if you can get a response from God..."
"But you've got to give it a try, right?"
Since Paimon has agreed to marry her, she will definitely be serious and responsible, so that she will not be like a hateful little girl who only cares about herself and refuses to share the delicious sweet flowers with Paimon, then What a disgusting guy!
"Okay, okay!"
"But Paimon, please slow down, I can't catch up with you..."
Looking at little Annie who was sucking nectar and eating happily, and then looking at Paimon in front who was still a little angry, Ying didn't know what to say, so she could only sigh with a wry smile, and then dragged Holding his tired body, he walked quickly towards Xingluo Lake in the distance along the road that seemed to have people walking around from time to time and obvious traces.
"What's so great about a broken statue of a god?"
(ˉ▽￣~)Cut~~
Looking at the little Ying and Paimon who were walking down the mountain talking and laughing, and then looking at the tall stone statue on the island in the lake in the distance, Annie curled her lips with some disdain. .
"but……"
(??ω??)
After looking at the excited two people and then at the stone statue in the distance, Annie suddenly had a fun idea in her mind.
"Looks like you're having fun?"
(o^?^o)
Then, she didn't follow the two people, but disappeared on the edge of the cliff in a flash, and she didn't know where she went.
