The treasure thieves of Teyvat rob Shenhe

"Solved the dragon disaster? Then you came at the wrong time. An evil dragon suddenly appeared last year, but it was solved by the partners of justice." Yan Xiao muttered.

"Evil dragon? Partner of justice?"

"Judging from your attire, you are probably from a foreign land, so you may not know clearly. This is the rooftop of Wangshu Inn, and you can overlook the entire Dihuazhou Island."

"If you observe the topography of Dihua Island, you will find several irregular depressions where river water is introduced for irrigation. This is caused by the battle with the evil dragon."

"Some people say that the evil dragon is the resurrection of the demon that Lord Yan suppressed at Wuwang Slope. At that time, the scene was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and sand and rocks were blown by the wind," Yan Xiao said with emotion. "Fortunately, someone stood up to stop it. It was the Partner of Justice, a title, but I don't know who it is exactly."

Ying and Paimon were very surprised after hearing this. When they took the elevator to the inn, they also saw the scars on the land of Ogihua Island. When they fought against the blackened Tevarin in the Wind Dragon Ruins, they were not able to cause such a degree of destruction.

When in Liyue Harbor, Ying had heard about the Partners of Justice, and many people were discussing it.

"This guy called Justice Partner is very powerful, but a little bit childish," Paimon commented.

"Hey, Partner of Justice has done more than just that. The mine in the Layered Abyss was reopened a few days ago, and he was also the one who solved the anomaly that had been bothering us for a long time." Yan Xiao said.

After saying this, he felt a little melancholy in his heart. If he had the strength to defeat the ferocious and terrifying dragon, a mere evil ghost would be easily captured.

"Alas, I am facing a fierce ghost. Only the talismans of the immortals and alchemists can save me."

"Evil ghost?!" Paimon was shocked.

Last time in Mond, Lin Ye’s house was haunted, but luckily we ended up spending the day at the beach.

Ying is very brave. She is not afraid of gods or demons. She is a ruthless person who dares to fight against the demon god's followers while holding a one-star weapon, the edgeless sword.

Lin Ye had instructed that they should find Yan Xiao from Wangshu Inn because he was the best cook and the almond tofu he made would impress the Monkey King.

In that case, we have to help Yan Xiao solve the haunted case.

Ying is used to this. She is used to completing commission A, and every small step she takes helps complete commission B in the process.

"Tell me first, where did you see the ghost? And why did you see the ghost? Where are the others?"

The guests on the rooftop of Wangshu Inn were either chatting or enjoying the scenery. They did not look at all uneasy as if they had encountered a ghost. It was very likely that Yan Xiao was the only one who encountered the ghost.

Paimeng, relying on her status, looked at Yanxiao with a scrutinizing gaze, waiting for Yanxiao to reveal some sinful past.

Don’t do bad things, don’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door.

Paimon thought to herself, but then she remembered that she had stolen the traveler's pudding when she was in Mondstadt.

Paimon shuddered.

Oh no, will I also encounter a ghost? No.

Paimon moved closer to Ying.

Ying tilted her head at Paimon's sticking.

Yan Xiao didn't believe Ying could help him, but there was no harm in trying. A drowning person would grab hold of anything around him desperately.

"Oh, I was alone in the kitchen, and I often heard strange laughter, asking me to play with her. I can't see ghosts, and she said it was behind me, watching me." Yan Xiao shrank his neck, and as he spoke, he got goose bumps on his arms, and looked behind him with lingering fear.

"Huh..." Paimon put himself in the situation and felt the same horror.

"You've never seen a ghost? Could it be a prank?"

"Impossible! I saw a ghost with my own eyes last year! It was mine... Anyway, it looked spooky and not human." Yan Xiao retorted.

"Yours what?" Ying asked.

Yan Xiao hesitated and didn't want to say anything.

Seeing this, Ying turned and said to Paimon.

"let's go."

"it is good."

"Eh? Wait!"

Yan Xiao called out to Ying and Paimeng.

Ying raised the corners of her mouth slightly and turned around slowly.

"please!"

"Since you are asking for help, you must have the right attitude. It is impossible for an evil ghost to come to your door without any reason. If you don't tell us, we can't prescribe the right medicine." Ying said calmly.

Paimon nodded in agreement.

"..." Yan Xiao showed hesitation, then looked up to the sky and sighed. His figure suddenly became lonely, and his eyes were melancholy and heavy.

fluorescent:……

She always felt that there should be background music playing at this time and she should say something.

“Please tell us your story.”

Half an hour later, Yan Xiao told Ying and Paimeng about his ill-fated relationship with women. The content was similar to what he had told Lin Ye before.

"So, because you didn't save her, she came to you to take her life?" Paimon asked, crossing his arms across his chest.

Paimeng thought that the other party had deceived Yanxiao, so how could he have the nerve to ask Yanxiao to save her?

If I were killed and turned into a ghost, I would look for Ying, but I would definitely not blame Ying for not saving me, I just wanted to see Ying, Paimeng thought.

"It shouldn't be her this time. She has already been taken in by Young Master Lin Ye and Hall Master Hu." Yan Xiao scratched his head and said.

"Linye?"

"Hmm? Do you know Master Lin Ye?"

Ying thought about it and said.

"Yes, Lin Ye and I are friends."

Yan Xiao suddenly burst into tears.

"Then are Young Master Lin Ye and Hall Master Hu coming to the inn too?" Yan Xiao asked expectantly.

"No, he's still in Liyue Harbor, but Lin Ye asked me to help you." Ying said.

Yan Xiao was very moved and didn't care about why Lin Ye, who was far away in Liyue Harbor, knew that he was troubled by ghosts again...this little thing.

Although Ying promised Yanxiao to exorcise the ghost, this was the first time Ying encountered such a thing. She had no experience and was not sure whether physical attacks would be effective.

After thinking it over, Ying first comforted Yan Xiao and turned to find Philgodette, this somewhat mysterious boss. She should know the solution.

After hearing this, Philgodette said in a sarcastic but actually helpless manner.

"…He was scared by such a small thing. He was a famous bandit before. As the saying goes, the first time is strange, the second time is familiar. This is not the first time, but he is still scared."

Philgodette said again, tell me the solution.

"There is a painting hanging in the inn, which depicts the Demon Subduing Seal that has been used in Liyue for thousands of years. You can go and take a look at what it looks like."

"Then, look for a place near this inn where you can see the complete Demon Subduing Seal."

"What happens next?" Paimon asked.

"Then you'll know," said Filgodette.

"Um...okay."

Ying and Paimeng found a painting depicting the Demon-Subduing Seal, and according to Filgodette's instructions, they searched for something special near Wangshu Inn.

Chapter 471: Whirlpool Devil's Followers

There is a place near Wangshu Inn where two rocks are separated by a certain distance. From a certain angle, the rock patterns are stitched together to form a demon-subduing seal.

The next moment, Ying sensed something and saw a little girl in spirit form running away not far away.

Paimon also saw it, was shocked, and said quickly.

"Appeared!"

Ying was not afraid of evil spirits, and rushed forward holding the Sword of West Wind, a gift from the Mond Knights.

Paimeng was stunned for a moment, then followed Ying's footsteps.

After crossing the long bridge, Ying and Paimon found the ghost girl in a corner.

At this moment, a broken ruins guard suddenly started up, and it was unknown whether it was possessed by the ghost girl.

The aerial model of the Ruins Guard was quite difficult for Ying to deal with. At the critical moment, he swung out the West Wind Sword, which was attached with swirling wind elements and hit the core of the Ruins Guard, causing it to fall to the ground.

Ying stepped on the ruins guard, pulled out the Sword of Favonius, and finished off several times with ease. The Sword of Favonius was a sword that only the elite among the Knights of Favonius were qualified to carry. It was extremely sharp and could be used to cut off the joints with ease, completely destroying the enemy.

When Ying was fighting with the ruins guards, the ghost girl did not run away, but clapped her hands, happy for her elder sister's victory, and sang crisply.

"Big Qiuqiu is sick~"

"Look at the two hills~"

"Collecting herbs at Sanqiuqiu~"

"Four hills boil ~"

"What is she singing?" Paimon hid behind Ying, poked his head out, looked at the ghost girl who seemed unable to communicate, and asked in a low voice.

Ying shook her head.

"Wuqiuqiu is dead~"

"Six hills lift..."

“…You can’t use ghosts to play tricks on ordinary people.” Seeing this, Ying tried to say.

To Ying's surprise, the ghost girl actually answered Ying and nodded obediently.

"Well, I won't tease Uncle Yanxiao anymore."

"So well-behaved?" Paimeng was surprised.

Then the ghost girl stared at her and Ying with an innocent smile.

"Then next time, sister will play with Xiao Ming."

"If you don't come, Xiao Ming will go find you..."

"Eh-eh——"

Paimeng got goosebumps all over his body. No wonder he was so obedient. It turned out that he and Ying had become Yanxiao's substitutes. How scary.

Paimon thought of a clever idea and finally remembered that when he was in Mondstadt, Lin Ye's house was haunted and he said that catching ghosts was his specialty...

"After we return to Liyue Harbor, let's go find Lin Ye. Didn't he say he could exorcise evil spirits?"

Ying doesn't care about Xiao Ming's unilateral agreement. Perhaps it is because of some kind of confidence in herself, and she believes that she can face difficult tests.

When Ying heard Paimon mention Lin Ye, she hadn't said anything yet, but her smile suddenly fell when she saw Xiao Ming's cute daisy-like smile.

"..."

"..."

Ying and Xiao Ming looked at each other.

Xiao Ming disappeared suddenly.

Ying tilted her head.

"Why did she disappear?" Paimon looked around, "Is she still following us?"

"Probably not." Ying said.

Lin Ye seemed to know this ghost girl, Ying thought.

"That's good." Paimeng trusted Ying very much and breathed a sigh of relief. "Then let's go back and find Yanxiao. Lin Ye and the boss both said he is a great chef. I want to see how delicious his dishes are, hum!"

"Ah."

Ying and Paimeng returned to Wangshu Inn and told Filgodette what had just happened.

Filgodette said with a smile, as if she had expected this.

"That child is called Xiao Ming. As you can see, he is a ghost."

"Since she is a ghost, why don't you find someone to send her to the afterlife?" Paimeng asked puzzledly.

"Haha, Wangshu Inn is located in Dihuazhou, connected to Wuwangpo in the north and Guiliyuan in the west. Thousands of years ago, this place was one of the main battlefields of the war between demons and gods. There are a lot of resentment and unclean things left here. If you open a small shop in this place, you will always meet special guests."

"Xiao Ming's situation is a bit special, and it is not convenient for her to reincarnate. The immortal also tacitly allows her to live here, but this child is easily lonely and naughty. Yanxiao is timid and enjoys scaring him. Maybe one day Yanxiao is no longer afraid, and Xiao Ming will lose interest and stop teasing him." said Philgodette.
