Genshin Impact: A Traveler with Only Two Skills

"No... this is not good..."

It was a man's voice. Although the man lowered his voice deliberately, in this silent environment and in front of an experienced adventurer like Ying, the voice was still very obvious.

The man's voice clearly revealed his inner hesitation and struggle, but strangely, Ying did not hear the voice of the person he was talking to.

"Just bear with it... Alas——"

"..."

"What can I do? I still have to live my life."

"Ugh!"

These all sound like complaints. Just like anywhere in the world, even in the most beautiful environment there will always be people who feel miserable about themselves.

Ying had no habit of eavesdropping on other people's privacy. Just as she was about to leave, the man suddenly changed the subject and his tone became excited.

"Everyone says I'm an honest man. Who wants to be this honest man?"

"I am just timid, timid..."

"Can you make me brave enough? Let me dare to... dare, dare, dare to scold her!"

What was going on? Was he trying to be bolder? Who was he trying to scold?

Several question marks appeared in Ying's head. Finally, she quietly walked away a little, and then approached the place again with a little footsteps.

Sure enough, the footsteps quickly alerted the people in the house, and Ying immediately heard the man shouting in a low voice:

"Which one?"

Then there was a sound of hurried footsteps approaching along with a dim firelight.

After the door opened, Ying pretended to pass by and saw the man who was talking just now. He was the one who greeted Chen Juan when they just entered the yard.

Ying remembered that there was a mean-looking woman in the room who called him "Old Zhu". In addition, the other party did not look very old. Ying thought for a moment and said:

"Brother Zhu, it's me. I couldn't sleep at night, so I came out for a walk."

Although this lake gave Ying the impression that she had lived in the mansion for many years, Ying had actually just arrived here. Brother Zhu obviously did not remember Ying's voice. He raised the kerosene lamp in his hand and moved in front of Ying. The dim environment took him a while to recognize Ying's identity.

"Oh, yes... uh..." Before Brother Zhu could say hello, he tilted his head towards his room, as if looking at something anxiously. Ying followed his gaze, but there was nothing in the dark environment.

Brother Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued:

"It's Ying." He smiled at first, but soon his eyebrows drooped down, "You kid, why are you still outside at this time of night? Go back to the house quickly. It's so cold, don't get frozen by the wind."

After saying that, he waved at Ying again, obviously wanting Ying to leave as soon as possible, but there was still a flattering smile on his face.

Ying also knew that if she continued to stay here, she would not get any more clues, but she still smiled at him and said:

"I see, Brother Zhu. I wanted to go back earlier, but suddenly I heard someone talking in your room, so I came to check it out."

This really made Brother Zhu nervous, and he blurted out:

"What did you hear!?"

But then he realized that what he said was wrong, so he quickly changed his words:

"Nothing much, just some talking in sleep. Okay, go back and get some rest."

After saying that, Brother Zhu didn't say anything more. He turned around and was about to close the door, but when he turned around, he saw a figure standing in the darkness.

Before Ying could warn him, Brother Zhu was grabbed by the ear by the other party, and the kerosene lamp in his hand almost fell to the ground because of the pain.

"You are so good, Zhu. Why are you not sleeping at night and fooling around with a little girl at the door? Ah!"

After saying that, the man looked at Ying viciously again. She was the mean-looking woman who lived with Brother Zhu.

After she saw Ying, she spent some time to identify her. Finally, she showed a full face of anger and cursed loudly:

"You bitch, you bitch, you're really no good as a bitch's son. You even hooked up with my man."

The woman did not restrain her voice, which sounded very sharp in the silent night. In addition, her voice was originally high-pitched. After just one or two sentences, Ying felt that everyone in the yard was startled by her, and rustling sounds were heard from many rooms.

I don’t know how many people were awakened from their warm dreams because of her voice.

To Ying, what the other party said was too harsh. She was just standing there and did not do anything out of line, but she had to be treated like this. She didn't know what kind of misunderstanding would be caused by people who were not aware of the situation after hearing what the other party said.

Ying didn't know whether to leave or stay, and the other party's words also made her a little angry. She could only sigh in her heart and said to the woman as calmly as possible:

"I was just passing by..."

But the woman didn't even give her a chance to explain:

"Oh my, I was just passing by here," the woman repeated Yi Ying's words in a sarcastic tone, "Bah! Don't think I don't know what you are thinking, you little bitch. I tell you, this matter is not over yet, I will deal with you tomorrow."

After saying that, the woman pulled Zhu Ge's ear hard, causing him to grimace in pain, but he dared not make a sound. Then the door slammed shut, and the water flow brought by the door panel was colder than the cold current outside the house.

Ying had no choice but to go back. As soon as she entered the house, she saw Chen Juan walking towards her wearing a coat.

"What are you doing so late instead of sleeping?" Chen Juan's tone also contained a hint of blame, but she quickly pulled Ying to her side and put her coat on her.

"Go back to sleep now. Don't take what Zhao Dongniang said to heart. She is in trouble... Alas."

After saying that, Chen Juan took Ying back to her room. Because of the existence of the restriction, she stopped unconsciously when she was a few meters away from the door. She watched Ying return to the room before turning around and leaving.

After entering the house, Guiyan was indeed awakened by Zhao Dongniang's voice. Seeing Ying coming back, he walked up to Ying with concern and asked:

"Ying, what happened just now?"

Ying had no choice but to spread her hands: "It's okay, I just wanted to go out for some fresh air, but I didn't expect to run into the muzzle of a gun."

After saying that, she added:

"There seems to be something wrong with Brother Zhu who lives in the house near the door. I heard him talking to someone, but I couldn't see any trace of the other person."

This sentence was said to Ling Yue, and soon Ling Yue asked:

"What did they say?"

"I haven't figured it out yet." Ying said, repeating the few sentences she remembered, but Ling Yue couldn't find any useful clues from them.

"No matter what, we still have to be on guard against this Zhu brother. It happens that everyone in the town will go to the temple. Tomorrow we will go to the temple with him to investigate the statue and find out the meaning of his words."

"No problem." Ying naturally did not refuse, "But it seems that I just offended his wife. I hope that Zhao Dongniang will not cause us any trouble."

After saying this, Ying stretched and was about to go back to the bed to continue resting, but her eyes met Guiyan's.

Guiyan shrank back and asked softly:

"Ying, do you... want to sleep?"

"Hmm..." Thinking of the reason why she went out, Ying was a little scared for a moment. She was silent for a moment, and heard Ling Yue's inappropriate laughter in the middle. Finally, she said:

"Go to sleep."

But I can't back down just because of Ling Yue's ridicule.
