"Kaka..."

Sparks from lightning ignited the wood at the bottom of the pot.

After a while, steam slowly emerged from the water in the pot.

"Sit down, sit down, I don't have anything else here, but there are still snacks and tea."

The enthusiastic warlock Lei Ying wiped away the non-existent dust on the cushion and motioned Bai Luo to sit down.

Maybe it was because she hadn't seen anyone of her own for so long that her enthusiasm was a bit too much.

Fools are synonymous with bad guys in the eyes of outsiders.

In fact, they treat their colleagues with unparalleled enthusiasm and trust.

After learning that Bai Luo had lost his way in the mountains and forests, Warlock Lei Ying accepted him without any doubt.

Even though his appearance is obviously different from Zhi Dong.

"Black tea, milk, fire water, which one do you want? Or should you mix them all together?"

After Warlock Lei Ying rummaged under her pillow for a while, she took out a jar and two bottles and asked Bai Luo.

"Have you forgotten the most important point in the training manual for the Fools' Advance Force? You must not carry fire water or any drinks related to fire water during the mission."

The so-called fire water is actually a kind of wine.

Just as dandelion wine is the soul of Mondstadt, fire water is the water of life in the solstice.

During the Demon God War, the Solstice people created a special medicine for disinfection. Some people tried to drink this liquid and felt good. Later, more and more people regarded this liquid that was supposed to be used for medicine as...

Spiritual sustenance.

"What does it matter? In this wilderness of Daozhu, the sky is huge and the earth is huge. Sister, I am the biggest!"

Warlock Lei Ying did not take Bai Luo's words seriously.

In her opinion, Bai Luo should be a newcomer recruited by the advance team from Inazuma's hometown, and it is understandable that he does not understand some unspoken rules.

Taking out the beautifully protected tea set, Warlock Lei Ying scooped some boiling water from the pot, cleaned it carefully, and brewed some black tea.

Considering that Bai Luo looked younger, she added some milk to it.

Before handing it to the other party, she asked persistently: "Do you really don't want fire and water?"

"If you go back to Winter in the future, I will treat you to drink the best fire water. For now... let's forget it."

After receiving the milk and black tea from Warlock Lei Ying, Bai Ze took a sip.

I have to say, her craftsmanship is quite good.

At least he had participated in so many tea parties with young ladies in the winter, and this was the first time he drank such flavorful milk black tea.

"Hehe, the tea was snatched from Ye Fuzhong, and the milk was fished from Qiuqiu people's pot. Doesn't it taste good?"

"puff--"

Before Warlock Lei Ying could finish speaking, Bai Luo spurted out all the liquid in his mouth.

The milk tea that was so delicious before is now a bit unbearable to look at.

"Oh my, young people nowadays really don't know how to cherish things at all."

Warlock Lei Ying was not surprised. In some missions, they didn't even have this kind of drink. When the situation was worse, they had to rely on water slime for drinking water.

As a monster formed by the accumulation of water elements that escape in nature, it can indeed be used as emergency water. However, due to the strong water element, drinking slime directly is actually harmful to the human body.

If not treated in time, it may even leave serious sequelae.

Now these new soldiers who join the advance team have no idea of ​​the hardships of their predecessors.

"How long have you been stationed here?"

Looking up at the worn canvas, Bai Luo began to change the topic.

Because he didn't want to hear Warlock Lei Ying talk about the origin of the pot for boiling water.

According to his hunch, she must be here for a long time.

"Well... I have forgotten that in this wilderness, apart from teasing the Qiuqiu people and robbing the wild people every day, there is no concept of time at all. When my sister came here, the country's lockdown order had not yet been issued.

Woolen cloth."

A mouthful of hot water made her face slightly tipsy even though she came from Zhidong.

Normally, she would never drink fire water in this way.

This is Rice Wife, not Solstice.

The more you drink the fire water, the less it will take.

Even if you take the time to rob the caravan, or simply go to Daozuma City to purchase, you will not be able to buy the authentic fire water of the winter.

But when friends come, it's different.

Fire water, if you don't drink it together, the atmosphere will be gone.

"Newcomer, my sister tells you that we fools don't have to care about other people's eyes. We are going to do great things with the Queen. Don't look at me, sister. I am a little short of money at the moment. When I finish my work in Inazuma City, I can at least have a good time when I go back.

Damn it, sir! When someone bullies you, report my name!"

Warlock Lei Ying was obviously drunk. She breathed out the smell of alcohol and patted Bai Luo's back boldly.

Fortunately, she is not very strong.

Otherwise, according to her shooting method, Bai Luo would definitely suffer internal injuries from her shooting.

"Right."

At this point, Warlock Lei Ying remembered that they had been chatting for so long and still hadn't exchanged names.

"Sister, my name is Ksenia, what's yours?"

"Bai Luo."

Kseniya's name made Bai Luo look askance.

Having lived in Zhidong for so long, he also has a certain understanding of the culture there.

For example, the name Ksenia represents hospitality during the solstice.

These ladies are truly hospitable.

"Bai Luo?"

Hearing this name, Ksenia paused while drinking the fire water.

As a member of Inazuma's advance team of fools, she also has some understanding of the culture here.

But in his impression, the name didn't have any Inazuma style.

Rather, she looks a bit like Liyue on the other side of the sea.

"Are you from Liyue?"

If Ksenia remembers correctly, Zhidong seems to have been strategically cooperating with Liyue recently.

She didn't know what it was specifically. She only knew that her good friend at Hearth House had come to her mysteriously and said that he wanted to take his younger brother to Liyue to do something big.

Alas, lucky Katarina, she must be eating and drinking with her brother at Crescent House now, right?

It's so enviable.

"Yes, but now I live in the solstice, because I jumped into the glacier to save a child in the winter, and was appreciated by the rooster, so I made an exception and joined the Fools."

Speaking of this, Bai Luo also felt sad for a while.

At first, he never thought that he just wanted to save someone.

When people come back from diving, they are no longer on the earth, but in Teyvat, where they appear in the solstice.

"Hey? Your experience is very similar to that of a person I know. It is said that that person has become an executive officer. I really don't know if we will become executive officers."

Kseniya didn't realize at all that the young man sitting next to her now, who was fed the strange milk and black tea by her in a prank way, was actually the young executive she mentioned.

Until many years later, she accidentally saw the familiar figure standing next to the Queen.
