Seeker of Teyvat

"Speaking of the 'Little Lucky Grass King', although we didn't get much information before, she doesn't look like the god who took your brother away that year..."

Listening to Paimon's words, Ying's expression was a little strange.

In fact, she had confirmed that the little girl Nasida she had met before was the God of Grass.

However, Paimon's words still made her nod: "I think so too."

Ying wanted to know what Paimon would look like when he found out that Nasita was the God of Grass.

Paimeng looked around for a while, and then saw a tall rock not far away. On top of it, there was a statue of the Seven Heavens God.

"Ying, wait a minute. I'll go to a higher place to see if there are any roads or road signs."

Ying nodded: "Okay, be careful."

"Don't worry." Paimon patted his chest, and then flew towards the Seven Heavens Statue high up.

Looking down from a high position, I quickly discovered a business road.

and a pedestrian walking on the road.

Flying back to Ying, Paimon said happily: "Ying, there is a road over there. I also saw pedestrians. Let's go there."

Under the guidance of Paimon, Ying stepped onto the path and soon saw the pedestrian that Paimon mentioned.

"Hello - we are travelers from a foreign country and would like to ask you for directions!"

Paimon greeted the passerby from a distance, but the other party did not respond.

"Didn't you hear me... Hey, pedestrian in front of me, can I ask you for directions?"

Paimon shouted even louder and flew towards the pedestrians not far away.

pedestrian:……

The passerby looked at Ying and Paimon, but walked away quickly.

Ying reached out and grabbed Paimon, who wanted to continue asking questions, with a hint of thought in his eyes.

"This person's clothes look like the ones of the Sumeru scholar I met in Inazuma before. She should also be a scholar from Sumeru." Ying said.

Paimon was a little unhappy. He stamped his feet and pouted: "What's going on? She clearly heard us calling her, but she ignored us."

"Maybe she has something important to do and doesn't have time to pay attention to us." Ying guessed, then smiled, "Haha, don't be angry, Paimon. Although she refuses to pay attention to us, as long as we follow her from a distance, we should be able to reach a populated area."

"Oh, you're right. Let's follow them quickly!" Paimon nodded hurriedly.

Ying and Paimon caught up with the pedestrians.

As they walked along the path, they found that the surrounding area seemed to be getting more and more remote, and there was no sign of the village they had imagined.

Finally, Ying and Paimon saw from afar that the pedestrian walked into a waterfall and disappeared in front of them.

"Hey, she walked to the small waterfall and disappeared. Let's go over to take a look." Paimon said hurriedly.

Ying frowned, but she was confident in her skills, so she agreed to Paimon's suggestion without hesitation and ran to where the pedestrians disappeared.

A small cave appeared in front of the two.

After looking at Paimon, Ying protected Paimon behind him and the two walked into the cave.

After entering the cave, the two found that this was not an entrance, but just an ordinary cave with some traces of human activities. It seemed to be a secluded residence.

"I thought this cave would be the entrance to the village or something, but it seems I was wrong."

Paimon flew out from behind Ying, looked around, and soon found the pedestrian. "She sat down over there. Could she be living here?"

Ying nodded: "This should be her residence. It seems like we have broken into someone else's house."

Paimon felt a little embarrassed for a moment, scratched his head, and then asked: "What should we do now? Should we try to ask her for directions again?"

Ying was a little embarrassed, but she still nodded: "Try to communicate with her."

"Well, okay. We finally met a passerby. Even if she doesn't welcome us, as long as we can convince her to point us in the direction, that'll be fine."

Paimon agreed with Ying's words.

The two walked into the cave.

Just after taking a few steps, a strange fragrance appeared at the tips of their noses.

Paimon sniffed and his eyes lit up.

Paimon was a little surprised that a pedestrian living in such a simple place could use such a fragrant aromatherapy: "Hmm... What a fresh scent."

Then he looked around the cave and saw an incense burner placed next to the meditating pedestrian.

"It must be coming from that incense burner. Although living in such a simple place, being able to meditate in the fragrance seems to be a good life."

Paimon said, then turned around and saw Ying's face was pale.

"What's wrong with you? Your face suddenly becomes so ugly." Paimeng quickly flew to Ying and spoke with concern.

Ying put her hand on her forehead: "This fragrance..."

"What, the fragrance makes you feel uncomfortable? But why don't I feel anything..." Paimon felt helpless, she didn't know what to do.

"I must leave here!" Ying shook her head vigorously and told herself in her heart, but before she could take a step, her already hazy consciousness fell into darkness.

Paimon flew beside Ying and saw Ying sway slightly before falling down.

"Ying, Ying, what's wrong with you?" A look of fear appeared in Paimeng's eyes, and she shouted loudly.

Paimon's voice was so loud that the cave owner, who was meditating on the side, opened his eyes.

When she saw Ying falling to the ground, she immediately twisted the incense burner beside her, and the fragrance emanating from the incense burner began to stop.

"She may be allergic to the scent of phenol." The cave owner walked to Ying's side, stretched out his hand and pulled Ying up, "Carry her outside, away from the scent of phenol."

Paimon followed the owner of the cave and pulled Ying hard, pulling Ying out of the cave.

"What happened to her? She's fine, right? Woohoo, it's all my fault. It's all my fault."

Paimon cried with a nasal sound in his cry.

The cave master just looked at Paimon and shook his head. "She's just allergic to the phenol incense. I've already sent a signal. The ranger will be here soon. Then Tinari will heal her."

After saying that, he ignored the crying Paimon and went back to the cave.

Paimon stood beside Ying with a helpless look on his face, tears in his eyes.

……

Xumi·Transformation City

"How come you have time to come to my place? Could it be that you are here to get some precious ingredients from Xumi?"

Tinari looked at the person in front of him, feeling somewhat helpless.

"That's not the case. I came here this time to wait for someone." Wang Daoyi said.

"Waiting for someone?" Tinari was a little surprised. "Have you made an appointment with someone to come to Huachengguo? I think if you want to make an appointment with someone, you should go to Xumi City. Isn't it a little... inappropriate to make an appointment in Huachengguo?"

In Tinari's opinion, Huachengcheng is not a good place to meet someone.

Wang Daoyi knew that Tinari had misunderstood, so he smiled and said, "Haha, it's not the kind of appointment you think. I just know someone will come and wait here."

"Okay, is there anything I can help you with?" After all, since he regarded Wang Daoyi as a friend, Tinari did not just abandon Wang Daoyi, but asked a question.

Shaking his head, with a hint of smile in his eyes, Wang Daoyi said: "No, no, you and Ke Lai can go and do your work, I will wait here."

As he was speaking, he saw a little girl running towards him from not far away. It was Ke Lai.

"Master Tinari, I just received a message for help from Hypatia."

Tinari's expression changed. Hypatia, that's a scholar who often has problems.

After thinking for a while, he looked at Wang Daoyi and said, "In that case, I won't entertain you. I have to go to Haibasha to see what happened."

"Go ahead, go ahead. I can handle this here by myself." Wang Daoyi said with a smile.

After saying goodbye to Wang Daoyi, Tinari hurried away with Cole.

Wang Daoyi stayed where he was, with a smile in his eyes.

Wang Daoyi naturally knew what had happened, he was just too lazy to move. It would be the same anyway if he waited for Tinari and Cole to bring Ying back.

With a wave of his hand, a rock platform rose up.

Wang Daoyi patted his butt and half-lay down.

"It's more comfortable lying down~"

Time passes little by little,

Until the sun gradually sets,

Wang Daoyi heard a familiar voice coming from a distance.

"What should I do? What should I do? Is she going to die? Wuuuuuuuu~"

"That's enough, stop crying, she's just allergic to the scent of phenol, it's not a big deal, she'll be fine!"

Paimon's crying and Tinari's slightly collapsed voice came from a distance.

"Woooooooo~"

Paimon cried all the way and followed Master Tinari and his apprentice to the city of Hua.

Ying was carried back by Tinari and Kelai.

"Wow, wow, wow~" Tinari's words obviously did not calm the emotionally broken Paimon. Paimon kept crying until she saw a familiar figure not far away who seemed to be laughing.

If you take a closer look, it’s Wang Daoyi!

"Wow~~"

Paimon howled loudly, as if a wronged child had found someone to rely on.

He suddenly rushed towards Wang Daoyi who was laughing,

"Daoyi, Ying is in trouble, please save Ying!"

The little guy tightly grasped Wang Daoyi's hand and called out to him in an almost pleading tone,

Paimon trusts Wang Daoyi more than the unfamiliar Tinari.

He reached out and hugged the crying Paimon, patted the little guy on the back, and comforted him: "Don't worry, since Tinari said it's okay, then it will be fine. He is the best ranger in Xumi."

"Really?" Paimon sniffed and asked hesitantly.

Wang Dao nodded: "Of course, don't worry, Ying is not that fragile."

the other side,

Tinari and Cole placed Ying on the stretcher.

Just walked to Wang Daoyi's side,

"Are these the two friends you were waiting for? They are so... noisy."

Tinari's large ears gave him an acute sense of hearing, but also made him extremely averse to noise.

And Paimon's crying along the way was the most terrifying noise.

Especially since Paimon started crying and didn't listen to his explanation at all, and kept shouting "What should I do, is she going to die?"

It was really too much for Tinari.

"Ha, that's what Paimon is like. She's just worried about Ying because they are best friends." Wang Daoyi said with a smile, and then gave an example, "Just like... if something happened to Cole, Tinari would be very worried too."

Tinari was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Kelai who was still taking care of Ying from a distance, and shook his head slightly: "I won't let Kelai get into trouble!"

In Tinari's eyes, Cole is not only his disciple, but also his family.

And protecting family is also very important in Tinari's philosophy.

So he wouldn't let anything happen to Cole.

Hearing Tinari's words, Wang Daoyi smiled and did not continue the topic.

"How long will it take for Ying to wake up?"

"Ying? Is this patient's name? She inhaled Hypatia's high-grade phenol fragrance, and she is very sensitive to phenol fragrance. I suspect her consciousness has been connected to the World Tree. So, at least three to five days, at most, it may take more than seven days."

"It's been so long, so I don't have much time to wait here."

Wang Daoyi raised his eyebrows, then touched Paimon's little head.
