Chapter 341 Yaoyao
In the distance, the group of people who were dining suddenly fell silent, and then a restless commotion broke out.
The jarring sounds of tables and chairs being moved echoed throughout the room. Guests on the perimeter tried to move away, while those on the outside craned their necks to look on with curiosity, creating a somewhat chaotic scene.
Mu Feng's attention was also drawn to the commotion on the other side. He looked through the gaps in the crowd and his brows furrowed slightly.
There was a table of men dressed as mercenaries; judging from their attire, they were ordinary guards escorting caravans between Mondstadt and Liyue.
The table in front of them was a mess of cups and plates, with empty wine bottles scattered haphazardly, indicating that they had already drunk quite a bit.
Perhaps it was the alcohol taking effect, or perhaps it was because their recent projects hadn't gone smoothly, but fueled by the alcohol, the group began to pour out their grievances.
For a moment, the elegant Liyue language echoed on the table, interspersed with words like "Mondstadt" and "Dragon Plague".
Mu Feng understood immediately. The group of people in front of him were probably one of the unlucky guys that Jia Ming had just mentioned who "risked taking risks for high rewards but ended up losing money."
After all, Dvalin, corrupted by the abyss, wouldn't consider insurance; let it be its final closing song.
At this point, even Barbatos would get hit twice if he just passed by, let alone these ordinary guards.
Clearly, this deal resulted in a complete loss for all of them.
The mercenaries were naturally full of resentment, and being hot-tempered by their own tempers, the situation began to spiral out of control as they angrily smashed a wine glass on the ground.
The surrounding guests quickly moved away, and seeing this, the innkeeper, Philgoldette, narrowed her eyes slightly.
She still wore the same polite smile as before, and after a brief exchange of glances, she quickly regained her elegant demeanor.
The shopkeeper, Huai'an, received a look from Gaudette, understood immediately, and greeted the cook, Yanxiao, in a low voice.
If you can't reason with people, then talk about physics.
All of this naturally did not escape Mu Feng's notice. He sighed inwardly once again that Wangshu Inn did not tolerate idlers, and picked up the key from the counter to go back to his room to rest.
Having finally managed to distract Phil Goddette, the Seven Star Spy, he had no intention of inviting trouble upon himself.
But, at that very moment, a sudden change occurred.
Perhaps due to excessive excitement, a wine glass slipped from the hand of one of the drunken mercenaries as he frantically swung his arm, and smashed straight towards the stairwell.
Just then, a petite girl happened to be climbing the wooden steps and peeked her head out.
The girl wore a light green Hanfu, carried a small bamboo basket, and had a small sachet hanging from her waist. Her light brown short hair was tied into a bow, and her two buns were decorated with golden bells, making her both lively and cute.
However, what greeted her today was not the usual bustling scene at Wangshu Inn, but a dark shadow rushing towards her.
The girl was startled by the sudden turn of events and was momentarily at a loss, instinctively closing her eyes.
The incident happened suddenly, catching everyone off guard. Phil Gaudette abruptly stood up, her expression no longer as composed as before.
"Yaoyao, danger! Get out of the way!"
However, this warning came a little too late.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Mu Feng, who was about to leave, stopped in his tracks, his pupils suddenly contracting.
The combat instincts he had developed during the simulations came into play, and his body reacted even faster than his brain.
As the wind blade shattered the wine glass in mid-air, the water shield protected the girl, blocking the flying shards of glass.
At the same time, Huai'an and Yanxiao rushed forward, pinned the drunken and disorderly mercenaries to the ground, and brought them under control.
The group was already completely drunk and too weak to resist for long before being subdued by the innkeeper's staff.
Phil Gaudette turned around abruptly, ignoring the group of drunkards, and looked at Mu Feng with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
Such a fast reaction speed, and if she wasn't mistaken, the other party used two elemental forces in an instant.
The Evil Eye? The Fools? Or even... the Executors?
However, according to her intelligence network, none of the eleven executive officers of the Fools seemed to have any information about the boy in front of her.
Having run Wangshu Inn for so long, this is truly the first time I've encountered such an unexpected and tricky situation.
The proprietress was a bit troubled; this group of drunkards had inadvertently given her quite a "surprise."
But the most urgent task is to confirm Yao Yao's safety.
Phil Gaudette rushed forward, and only after confirming that the girl in front of her was unharmed did she breathe a sigh of relief.
If something happens to this child, blaming oneself is one thing, but holding others accountable is another. Who knows, tomorrow this Wangshu Inn might witness a scene of countless immortals lining up.
If that's the case, then everyone's Mora will be saved.
At this moment, Yao Yao also recovered from her shock. However, instead of showing any fear, the girl stood on tiptoe like a little adult, patted Philgoldette's shoulder, and gently comforted her.
"Don't worry, Aunt Gordet, Yao Yao is fine."
"My master said that those who survive a great calamity are destined for good fortune... Hmm... Is that not quite the right way to use it here..."
In the past, Gaudette would have corrected the use of the term "auntie" with utmost seriousness at this time.
But today, she really wasn't in the mood for jokes.
The girl tiptoed and peeked her head out from behind the shoulder of the innkeeper of Wangshu Inn, where she met Mu Feng's gaze.
Then, the little girl gently broke free from Gaudette's embrace, ran up to Mu Feng, and obediently bowed to thank him.
"Big brother, thank you for your help just now."
"Yaoyao is being polite now!"
The golden bell on Yao Yao's head jingled crisply with her movements, and paired with the girl's clear chestnut-brown eyes, she looked like a gentle little deer.

While silently marveling at the irresistible charm of Li Yue's beloved pet, Mu Feng smiled and reached out to rub her little head.
"It was nothing, I'm just glad Yao Yao is alright."
The girl smiled sweetly, her beautiful eyes crinkling, and showed no resistance to being patted on the head.
Standing to the side, Philgoldette looked at her now empty arms, then at the two people beside her who were getting along well, and fell into a long silence.
I shouldn't be here; I should be behind the counter.
This inn now has another heartbroken person.
The proprietress wasn't in a good mood, and consequently, the guy who caused trouble at this critical juncture was going to suffer.
"Throw all of these out!"
"This group of people is on Wangshu Inn's blacklist! Don't let me see them in the inn again, I'm telling you!"
