Dialogue
Due to the meteor shower, Jiayi's plan to return home to see his family has been canceled yet again. He is looking for someone to send a letter to Qingce Village...
- Jiayi: *sigh* What shall I do...
What's wrong?- Jiayi: You must have seen those meteorites that fell from the sky as well, right? Fortunately, the City wasn't hit, but it's a real mess out there in the wild.
- Jiayi: Not only have the meteorites blocked the roads, but they've also caused the nearby monsters to become more agitated and dangerous than usual, and they've been attacking passers-by and merchants everywhere.
- Jiayi: The Ministry of Civil Affairs has sent almost every single available Millelith out, but Liyue too large. We can only ensure the safety of a few main roads and some key villages.
- Jiayi: I'd applied to go to Qingce Village to take up guard duties there, but for some reason, I still got redeployed here to stand by for orders...
- Jiayi: Traveler, could you help me send this letter to a girl named Little Liu who lives in Qingce Village?
- Jiayi: She's my daughter, and I'd agreed to go back to spend a few days with her. But with this emergency dropping up, there's no way that'll happen now...
I've got your back.
- Jiayi: Much appreciated, Traveler. Ah, what horrible luck...
It wasn't in your hands...
- Jiayi: I know, but... I just don't get it. Why does something happen every time I try to apply for leave?
- Jiayi: I'm finding it hard to call it a coincidence...
- Jiayi: Well, I'll leave it to you then. Please help me get this letter to Little Liu.
- Jiayi: That said, I've heard from people who've come to stand down from duty that quite a few monsters have gathered near Qingce Village as well.
- Jiayi: Well... I don't mean to impose, but you do look dressed for adventure.
- Jiayi: Could you have a look around Qingce Village while you're sending the letter, and help to clear the monsters out?
- Jiayi: The Millelith largely stand guard on the main roads and key passes... Things could go poorly if some scattered monsters were able to sneak into Qingce Village.
Alright then...
- Jiayi: Thank you! I truly appreciate it.
- (Obtain

Jiayi's Letter)
Well, that'll run you extra...
- Jiayi: Well, um... Don't worry, I will arrange fair compensation for you.
- Jiayi: You have my thanks.
- (Obtain

Jiayi's Letter)
- (Talk to Jiayi again)
- Jiayi: *sigh* When will I finally be able to clear my leave...
- (Upon reaching the monster camp)
- Paimon: Ha! Looks like there were monsters hiding in here. Let's take 'em out!
- (After clearing out the monsters)
- Paimon: Well, that should do it. Let's go to Qingce Village and get that letter into Little Liu's hands.
- (At Qingce Village)
- Paimon: Speaking of which, do you know where she is?
- Paimon: Hmm, well then, guess we'll just have to ask the villagers.
- (Speaking to Dongdong)
- Dongdong: Wow! You look like a traveler, are you?
Do you know where Little Liu is?- Dongdong: Little Liu? We were going to meet here to watch the meteorites, but she said that she wanted to find someplace higher.
- Dongdong: She said that she'd tell me once she found our new spot, but I don't know where she's gone.
- (Speaking to Uncle Ghast)
- Uncle Ghast: Oh? Come and have a chat, kid. Who knows — if the influence of those meteorites gets any stronger, there'll be no one to talk to but in your dreams. *chuckles*
So, about Little Liu...- Uncle Ghast: Little Liu... Little Liu... Ah yes, I know her. But I've been here all this while, and she didn't pass this way.
- (Speaking to Yundan)
- Yundan: Hi, and welcome to our village.
Any idea where Little Liu is?- Yundan: Little Liu? Hmm, I remember her saying that she wanted to find a high place so she could watch the meteorites...
- Yundan: Hmm, I think she climbed up those ladders over there.
- (Speaking to Little Liu)
- Little Liu: I should be able to see the meteorites clearly from here...
There's a letter for you...- Little Liu: A letter from Daddy... Ugh, I already know what it's going to say...
- Little Liu: He can't come and spend time with me because of work, right?
- Little Liu: When those Millelith came here, I thought Daddy would be with them, but that didn't happen...
- Little Liu: But that's not a bad thing, actually. With all those rocks falling from the sky, Daddy could be in danger out there.
Aren't you scared?
- Little Liu: Well... a little, but we should be alright. The Millelith are here, after all.
Don't go out there, now.
- Little Liu: I know, I know. The Millelith have talked our ears off already.
- Little Liu: Right! Could you send this letter back to Daddy for me? He must be worried.
- Little Liu: It's so strange. Something seems to happen every time Daddy says he'll take leave and spend time with me...
- (Obtain

Little Liu's Letter)
- (Obtain
- (Speak to Little Liu again)
- Little Liu: That's so weird. Why does something happen every time Daddy applies for leave?
- (Speaking to Jiayi back in Liyue Harbor)
- Jiayi: You're back. Did you manage to deliver the letter?
I did. Little Liu has a letter for you too, by the by.- Jiayi: Little Liu wrote me a letter? Let me see...
- Jiayi: Thank you, Traveler. I'll keep this for the time being. This is not the time to be reading letters... I must attend to my duties now.
- Jiayi: Please take this compensation for your trouble.
- Jiayi: Once this is all over, I'm taking a long break for sure...
