Genshin Impact: The traitor doesn't even let his senior sister go

Seeing this, Song Yinjian felt a little puzzled and muttered to himself: Why is she suddenly angry when everything is fine? Is it because of her period?

In this way, the two of them walked along the road, one in front and one behind, for about half an hour.

Suddenly, Keqing stopped abruptly, her eyes staring straight ahead, her expression becoming somewhat grim.

I saw dozens of people sitting in a large circle in a fairly open space, and in the center of the circle stood a man wearing a ghost mask.

The man was dancing and gesticulating exaggeratedly, looking as if he was performing a rather strange ritual.

Song Yinjian leaned forward to take a few glances, then couldn't help laughing out loud.

He originally thought that he had encountered some evil sacrificial activity, but when he took a closer look, he found that it was just a trick.

Then, Keqing's eyes flashed, and she immediately summoned the Dragon Roar from her one-handed sword box from her Thunder God's Eye, and walked over with murderous intent.

When Song Yinjian saw this scene, he couldn't help but show a bit of envy in his eyes.

The holder of the Eye of God can not only control the power of elements at will, but can also store his own weapons in it.

The man who was pretending to be mysterious soon realized that Keqing was approaching.

Without saying a word, he quickly took out a talisman from his arms. Then, a white smoke rose up and instantly enveloped his body.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared without a trace.

After witnessing this miraculous scene, the expressions on the faces of those sitting around instantly became excited. Their eyes were filled with fanaticism, and they shouted in unison: "The Star Lord has appeared! The Star Lord has appeared!"

The shouts rose and fell, echoing in the open space, as if they had really witnessed a miracle.

Seeing this, Keqing frowned, put away the Dragon Roar Sword in the box, then walked forward and patiently explained to everyone that the man was just a liar.

But in the end, even though she revealed her identity as a Seven Star, those people ignored her and instead thought that she was trying to steal their chance to become an immortal.

Seeing this, Song Yinjian calmly stepped forward with a dignified look, and shouted to the crowd, "Don't act so arrogantly here! I am the third disciple of True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, True Lord Yinshui Jianlang!"

After saying that, he quickly formed seals with his hands, and then gently summoned a talisman emitting a mysterious light, which appeared on his palm.

Immediately afterwards, the talisman shone brightly, and a majestic fire dragon instantly roared and rose into the sky.

Everyone was immediately shocked by this astonishing scene. Their eyes widened, their faces filled with horror, not daring to make a sound.

The fire dragon circled in the air for a few times and then gradually dissipated.

Song Yinjian put away the talisman and said in a stern tone, "That man just now was a demon cultivator, and he wanted to use you as his blood food.

Leave this place immediately, or he will target you and make you his meal."

Everyone was frightened by his words and ran away, fearing that they would be used as food if they were a step late.

Chapter 25 The Poor Old Woman

"Is that person really a demon cultivator?" Keqing asked uncertainly after those people left.

Song Yinjian couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this, and then asked, "You believe this kind of nonsense?"

When Keqing heard this, she glared at him angrily, "Then you're lying, aren't you?"

Song Yinjian nonchalantly scratched his ears and nonchalantly replied, "Those fools! If you hadn't tricked them like this, they'd probably still be thinking that charlatan was some kind of Heavenly Sovereign."

Although Keqing was still a little unconvinced, she had to admit that what Song Yinjian said was indeed reasonable and that it was simply unreasonable to those people.

A hint of depression appeared on her face. "I never thought that there would still be people who would be fooled by such a cheap trick."

Song Yinjian shrugged, looking unsurprised. "This is perfectly normal. People are inherently greedy, and greed naturally makes them easily exploited and deceived. Those who are deceived are all hoping to gain immortality and achieve immortality."

Keqing agreed with him, "You're not wrong about that."

After she finished speaking, she paused and continued, "By the way, I'm going to the Criminal Law Department to arrest that liar now, so I won't accompany you to look at the land again."

Before she finished her words, and before Song Yinjian could react, she turned around and left quickly, leaving Song Yinjian standing there alone.

Song Yinjian helplessly looked at her hurried back as she left, cursing the liar countless times in his heart.

Afterwards, he walked back towards Liyue Harbor at a leisurely pace.

About half an hour later, he returned to his shop.

Before I had time to sit down, I saw an old woman walking towards me.

She was hunched over, her face was old and tired, with traces of tears still lingering in the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this, Song Yinjian quickly stepped forward, extended his hand to support the old woman, and asked softly, "Grandma, what's wrong with you?"

The old woman sighed deeply, her voice filled with sorrow. "My son... he's gone. I'd like to ask for your help in arranging his funeral so he can rest in peace."

When Song Yinjian heard this, he couldn't help but feel sympathy.

Losing a child in old age is one of the most difficult sorrows in life.

He responded gently, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it. I'll make sure he leaves safely."

The old woman looked embarrassed when she heard this. She hesitated for a moment and said awkwardly, "I... I don't have much money."

Song Yinjian smiled and said, "I can see that you're really struggling right now. How about this? I'll give you a special price."

The old woman seemed to muster up all her courage and whispered shamefully, "I... I only have a thousand molas."

After saying this, she lowered her head slightly, mentally prepared to be rejected. After all, this amount of money was too little.

Song Yinjian was about to refuse, but when he saw her pitiful and helpless look, he really couldn't bear it.

After a moment's silence, he said, "Grandma, I'll take this deal. However, I can only handle your son's funeral in the simplest way."

When the old woman heard this, she was immediately excited, her eyes reddened, and she was about to kneel down to express her gratitude.

Seeing this, Song Yinjian hurriedly reached out to stop her, and then started chatting with the old woman.

Through conversation with the old woman, he learned that her surname was Qin and her husband had been a miner in the Layered Abyss and had died in a mining accident many years ago.

The reason for her son Li Daping's death was that he suddenly borrowed a lot of money from relatives and friends, was unable to repay it, and was ashamed to face his mother who raised him, so he chose to hang himself.

Song Yinjian has always disliked people like Li Daping. If it weren't for the poor old mother in front of him, he would never take over such a business.

Then he pulled the donkey cart out from the back door of the shop yard, loaded some basic funeral supplies on the cart, and after making preparations, he planned to go out.

At this time, Shen He heard the noise and walked out of her room. Her voice was still as cold as usual: "Junior brother, I want to go too."

Song Yinjian nodded slightly, then took the reins of the donkey cart and walked outside.

When he arrived at the door of his shop, he carefully helped Old Lady Qin onto the donkey cart, and then set off for his destination.

Shen He walked with light steps, side by side with Song Yinjian.

After about an hour's journey, the group arrived at a remote village.

They stopped in front of a dilapidated-looking house at the entrance of the village.

Old lady Qin took some effort to get off the donkey cart, and then, with the help of Song Yinjian, she opened the old door of her house.

As soon as the door opened, a heavy breath hit him in the face, and Song Yinjian saw Li Daping's body lying on the ground at a glance.

There were obvious signs of livor mortis on the body, and the deep marks on the neck were shocking. A long red rope was thrown on the ground nearby, making the whole scene look particularly miserable.

When Old Lady Qin saw her son's cold body, she was overcome with grief and burst into tears again.

After Song Yinjian comforted her softly, he began to deal with funeral-related matters.

He first carefully cleaned the body of the deceased and then dressed him in shrouds.

Just then, there was a sudden burst of noise outside.

Immediately afterwards, seven or eight rural women and men rushed into the house aggressively.

"Old lady Qin, you are really something! You have money to hold a funeral for your dead son, but you have no money to pay us back!" A middle-aged woman with a mean face shouted in a shrill voice with a sarcastic tone.

As soon as she said this, the others started to criticize Old Lady Qin as if they were lit firecrackers.

For a moment, the house was filled with shouting and accusations, as noisy as a vegetable market.

Old Lady Qin's face was filled with sorrow as she kept explaining, "That's not the case. Boss Song was so kind that he only charged me one thousand Mora."

However, her explanation had no effect at all. They continued to accuse her relentlessly, becoming more and more agitated. The language uttered by some people became more and more filthy and unbearable to hear.

Song Yinjian couldn't stand it any longer. He stopped what he was doing, a glint of anger flashing in his eyes, and shouted, "Get out of here! Otherwise, Li Daping's soul will never rest in peace, and you will all die a miserable death!"

Chapter 26 Star Lord

Following Song Yinjian's loud shout, the scene instantly became quiet.

Everyone looked at each other with fear in their eyes. It was obvious that no one wanted to touch that unlucky person.

A brave woman shouted, "Who are you trying to scare? We're not afraid of these things!"

Song Yinjian sneered, his eyes filled with disdain. "Hmph, do you think I'm kidding you? I'm a disciple of the Immortal Family!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the woman laughed out loud as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world: "I thought he was so famous, but he's still a liar! He's not even as famous as that Xingchen Tianjun who cheated Li Daping."

Hearing the name "Xingchen Tianjun," Song Yinjian couldn't help but frown. He asked, "How did Xingchen Tianjun deceive Li Daping?"

The sarcasm on the woman's face became even more intense, mixed with a hint of gloating, "The so-called Star Lord only demonstrated a simple technique, and Li Daping begged and cried to become his disciple, and even provided him with money.

Finally, when the money ran out, they were kicked out.”

After listening to this, Song Yinjian finally understood the cause and effect of Li Daping's suicide.

He turned to Shen He and said softly, "Senior Sister, please show me your true immortal skills."

Shen He nodded slightly, and his slender jade hands quickly turned over to form a seal.

In an instant, a dazzling light burst out from her hands, and the surging immortal power quickly filled the entire house like a flood.

Then, a shocking scene happened.

All the women and men were terrified, their bodies uncontrollably lifted up by this extremely powerful immortal force.

Then, they were thrown out of the house like stones, raising a cloud of dust when they landed.

Those people fell to the ground, their bodies in unbearable pain. They no longer dared to provoke Song Yinjian and fled away in a tumbling manner.

After a small farce, Song Yinjian continued to dress Li Daping in funeral clothes and tidy up his remains.

Old lady Qin sat there as if she had lost her soul, with turbid tears streaming down her wrinkled cheeks.

After everything was tidied up, Song Yinjian raised his head and looked outside the house.

At this time, night has fallen. The bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the stars are twinkling, casting a cold light and shrouding the whole world in silver.

Old Lady Qin spoke with shame, "Everything in our house... was taken to pay off debts. Now... I have nothing to eat, and no candles to light the way for you two. I'm so sorry."

After hearing this, Song Yinjian couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He waved his hand gently, "It's okay, grandma, I can take care of it myself."

As he said this, he turned and walked towards the donkey cart parked outside the house.

After a while, he came back with half a bag of rice and a few candles.

He cooked a pot of porridge on the simple stove and left all the remaining rice to Old Lady Qin.

Shen He stood quietly by, her eyes always fixed on Song Yinjian. She didn't know when he became the center of her world.

After dinner, Song Yinjian put on his robes again and chanted scriptures to pray for Li Daping's soul to be reborn.

Silent all night.

The next morning, after Song Yinjian held a simple farewell ceremony, he cremated Li Daping's body.

During this process, several simple-hearted villagers heard the news and rushed over to pay their respects.

After everything was over, Song Yinjian handed the urn to Old Lady Qin, whose tears had dried up.

He sighed in his heart, then led the donkey cart and Shen He on the return journey.

When Song Yinjian and Shen He were about to reach their own shop, they saw Keqing standing at the door of the shop with her arms folded, looking bored from afar.

"Hey, Master Yuhengxing," Song Yinjian said sarcastically as soon as he saw Keqing, "What wind is so strong today that it actually blew you here?"

Keqing frowned slightly, knowing that this guy was still upset about her leaving halfway that day.

She bit her lip lightly and said calmly, "It was my fault that day. I promise to choose you a piece of land with the best feng shui in Tianheng Mountain as compensation."

When Song Yinjian heard this, a bright smile immediately broke out on his face. "Oh, Master Ke, what are you talking about? I don't mind at all!"

Seeing this, Keqing couldn't help but roll her eyes, "But, you have to help me complete one thing."
