"Scholars, scholars, where are the scholars?"
Jiang Bai wandered around Liyue City, trying to find a scholar who studied writing in the Imperial Academy.
Even though he is not a native of Teyvat, after staying there for so long, he knows very well that Xumiru is rich in scholars, and if he wants to find truly capable scholars, he has to find someone from the Teaching Council.
Among the six colleges of the Jiaolingyuan, one of them specializes in writing and writing. As for which college it is, he does not remember.
The names of the colleges in the Teaching Academy are too complicated, even harder to remember than the name of Immortal Liyue.
After walking around the busy place, Jiang Bai was surprised to find no one suspected of being from the Xumi Order.
As for going to Xumi Temple in person, it used to take at least ten days, which was too far. He didn't want to go that far if nothing happened.
Moreover, he has just mastered the thunder element, and he has not mastered the thunder element very well. Currently, he is not very interested in the grass element.
It is still necessary to proceed step by step.
"Forget it, let's go find the almighty Albedo."
It’s been a while since I’ve seen Abedo and Keli. Even if Abedo doesn’t recognize them, they can still use their smart little brains to make connections.
Mondstadt was no different from the last time he came here. He came to Keli's house in a familiar way and knocked on the door, but no one answered.
It was obvious that neither man was home.
Jiang Bai is not surprised either. Abedo spends a lot of time in his laboratory or workshop, while Keli either goes out to play or is locked up.
Just as he was about to go to the Knights to ask where Keli was going, a green head popped out from the balcony on the second floor of the house next to him.
Wendy held on to the balcony railing, her green hat sticking to her head in defiance of gravity.
"Hey~" Wendy winked mischievously.
Jiang Bai was completely caught off guard by the sudden meeting with this alcoholic poet.
This guy couldn't come out alive when you were looking for him, and he just showed up when you weren't looking for him.
Jiang Bai grabbed his braid and said, "Hey, you are a ghost!"
Wendy jumped down from the balcony, "The wind told me you brought good wine from Rice Wife~"
Jiang Bai raised his head and said, "Give it to Master, it's not your share!"
"Ah? How could this be possible?" Wendy's little face wrinkled, looking as pitiful as possible.
He opened his round eyes and kept blinking, "You lied to me, right?"
Jiang Bai stretched out his hand and pressed it directly on his face without looking into his pitiful eyes.
"Watch your image!"
Humph, this trick is only for him to use on others!
You three thousand year old guy, do you have the nerve to use this trick on him?
"I'm just a bard, I don't have any image."
He twitched his nose and begged: "I smell the fragrance of Feiying wine, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me!"
Jiang Bai looked disgusted. Why did this god give up his integrity for the sake of wine?
He took out a small jar of Sakura wine, which was poured from the jar of wine given by Thor. The old man asked him to bring it to him when he met Wendy.
As a result, not long after he arrived in Mondstadt, he didn't even think about looking for this guy. This guy showed up on his own.
"Here you go, here you go!" Jiang Bai shoved the wine at him like a hot potato.
He was afraid that if he didn't give it to this guy, he would hold his legs and beg loudly.
Don't believe it, this guy can really do it.
After getting the wine, Wendy was in high spirits.
When he opened the lid, the rich aroma of wine wafted out, and he looked intoxicated.
“What a delicious wine~”
Jiang Bai simply had no eyes for this imageless god.
Jiang Bai gave him a pearl in disgust, "Exchange the souvenir I brought for you for wine."
Wendy accepted it unceremoniously, "Hey, today is really my lucky day!"
Jiang Bai's mouth twitched.
You are very lucky. You are the first to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
But accepting his gift must have some effect.
"Do you know where Abedo is?"
"Let the great Lord Barbatos search for it."
Wendy's braids glowed, and the wind lingered in her ears.
"Found it, in the snowy mountains! Huh"
Hearing the sudden change in his voice, Jiang Bai raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wendy blinked mysteriously, "That's something interesting!"
"I hate the Riddler."
Jiang Bai rolled his eyes. Is there something that he can't tell directly?
"Okay, drink slowly, I'll go find Albedo."
Directly using the ground anchor point to reach the snow-capped mountains, the biting cold wind suddenly hit us.
Jiang Bai sneezed and quickly took out his coat to wrap himself up. He still felt cold even after wrapping himself up. He jumped up a few times to make his body sweat slightly, which made him feel much better.
Jiang Bai went directly to the camp where Abedo often went, but saw no one there.
"If you weren't in the camp, where would you go to paint?"
If it's not in the campground, it's a bit difficult to find it.
Snowy mountains are also not suitable for shouting loudly, as it can easily trigger avalanches.
Jiang Bai simply started walking blindly in the snowy mountain. Although he had been to this snowy mountain many times, there were many places he had never been to.
Anyway, I had nothing to do, so I took a look around.
Unknowingly, he came near Dulin's remains.
The huge keel stands in the wind and snow, spectacular and solemn.
Looking at the dragon bone, Jiang Bai inexplicably thought of the Thunderbird and the Orochi.
Compared to the resentment that spread throughout the island after their deaths, Dulin's remains seemed to be completely suppressed by this snowy mountain.
Except for Tevarin, who drank Durin's blood during the battle and was seriously affected, no more pollution was caused.
Is this the credit of the snow-capped mountains or the nail? Or was it that Du Lin had no resentment when he died?
Speaking of which, it seems that he has never tried to use the fragments of the Cold Sky Nail to purify the pollution from the devil's residue.
If that nail has such an effect, would it be possible to reduce his karma by getting one for Mandrill to carry around with him?
Jiang Bai felt that it was necessary to study it with Abedo.
When he thought of Abedo, he saw Abedo.
He stood in front of Dulin's heart and stared at it, which was still as red as fire.
This heart still carries a strange and heart-stopping aura. It has been dead for many years, but it still remains bright.
It seems that one day it will come back to life again.
Abedo stood under that huge heart, looking very small.
Even though he has been here several times, Jiang Bai has the illusion that it is still alive every time he sees the heart.
"Albedo!"
Jiang Bai came over to greet him.
Abedo frowned and his tone was a little cold, "Why are you here?"
"I didn't find you in the camp. I was wandering around in the snowy mountains, but I didn't expect to see you here."
"Are you looking for me?"
Jiang Bai was slightly stunned when he heard Abedo's somewhat cold questions.
"Are you in a bad mood?"
"Yeah." Abedo turned his head and looked at your huge heart again.
"What's wrong? Did you encounter difficulties in your research? Did Keli make you angry? Or did something else happen?"
