Genshin Impact: A Traveler with Only Two Skills

After leaving the village, Ying and Guiyan headed towards the town.

It was indeed a long time since anyone had walked on that road. Even in winter, when everything was withered, there were still many tenacious weeds growing on the road, covering up the already inconspicuous road.

Although Guiyan remembered the way, they had not been to the town for a long time. In addition, the road was difficult to travel on, so their speed slowed down.

Originally, Ying and Guiyan thought they could reach the town before dark, but the reality is always unsatisfactory. Until the sun was half swallowed up, according to Guiyan, they were still several kilometers away from the town.

"It's terrible. The sun is about to set." Guiyan shook his head and sighed, "It seems that it's no use. We are afraid that we will die here."

"After a while, some little ghosts might make us lose our way and end up in some cemetery. Hey! When that happens, Ying, you have to help me stop those monsters. I must choose a good location."

Guiyan started laughing again as she spoke. She looked around, as if she was looking for the nearest cemetery.

These words made Ying unhappy. She tilted her head, but her eyes seemed a little depressed.

"I didn't encounter any problems along the way, so I thought my luck had improved."

After saying that, Ying took out the peach that she hadn't eaten in the morning from her pocket and started eating it bite by bite.

Anyway, she had already eaten one before, so if there was something wrong with the peach, there was nothing she could do, so she might as well eat her fill.

However, after eating a peach without any accidents, Ying's vigilance towards it actually decreased a little, especially because this peach was plump, juicy and exceptionally sweet. After eating one in the morning, she didn't feel hungry until the evening. It was considered a pretty good food.

However, the feeling was different from when she ate the peach in the morning. Ying was in a low mood now, and the peach did not taste as delicious as in the morning.

"Ying, what should we do now?" Gui Yan also took out his peach and asked while eating it.

"We have to keep moving forward. It's too late to go back, and there's no point in staying there." Ying put away the peach pit and directly took Guiyan's hand.

"This way you won't be afraid of getting lost!"

Guiyan's hands were still so warm. Although they were all on their way and had dispelled some of the cold, they still felt cold when they should. For example, Ying would shiver from time to time.

At this moment, Ying had another thought in her mind: "Can you give me some of your body temperature?"

But of course she wouldn't say that.

"Huh?" Gui Yan was stunned at first when Ying held his hand, then a bright smile appeared on his face, and even his eyes narrowed.

"Well! Let's go!"

Seeing Guiyan's now much more normal smile, Ying's heart also became warm. When she was about to take a step forward, there was a sudden noise coming from the bushes not far away.

rustling—

"Be careful!" Ying reacted instantly and protected Guiyan behind him. At this time, the last bit of light from the sun was completely swallowed up, and the surroundings became pitch black. There was neither a bright moon nor stars in the sky. It was truly pitch dark.

But because of this, they could clearly see that there was a faint light emanating from the location where the sound came from in the grass.

"Can those monsters also use light?" Ying asked in a low voice.

Guiyan immediately replied:

"Yes, some ghosts can use magic to create fire and light to attract people. Sometimes they can also scare people away."

After listening to this, Ying immediately gathered the elemental power of thunder. She had summoned the sacrificial sword in her hand at some point, and purple lightning was entwined around the sword.

Perhaps sensing danger, the flames began to flicker, and then there was a burst of rapid shouting:

"Fellow Daoist! Fellow Daoist, please show mercy!"

Ok?

Why doesn't it feel like a monster?

Ying hesitated for a while, then saw the grass swaying, and then two figures walked out.

The two people were a man and a woman. The man was tall, wearing a blue-gray long gown, and looked quite honest. The woman had a well-proportioned figure, not outstanding in figure, and her face was just average. However, the combination of them was very harmonious and very pleasing to the eye.

Both of them were carrying a large backpack and holding a glass lantern in their hands. A big red candle was lit in the lantern. The faint light in the grass that Ying had just seen was from this candlelight.

"Who are you?" Ying did not let go of the sword in her hand. While asking, she gave Guiyan a look to confirm with her whether there was anything wrong with these two people.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Gui Yan looked confused and did not understand the meaning of Ying's eyes.

Ying curled the corners of her mouth slightly, said nothing, and focused her attention on the couple.

The woman seemed to be frightened by Ying's aura, and took a few steps back with a pale face. The man, although also a little scared, still came forward, coughed twice, and said:

"Ahem, ladies, I'm Sangge, and this is my junior sister Xiaonan. We are outer disciples of the Tiancang Sect, and we came here specifically to do business. Miss, look, I have soul-soothing talismans, mind-calming talismans, mind-separating talismans, demon-dispelling talismans, devil-avoiding talismans, and soul-summoning talismans..."

"Stop, stop, stop!" Ying saw that the man suddenly started to say a lot of names of talismans as if he was selling something, so she quickly shouted to him to stop.

"You do business in a place like this?" Ying was surprised. They didn't see any people along the way, which made her more suspicious of the identities of Sangge and Xiaonan.

Unexpectedly, Sanger slapped his thigh and sighed:

"I didn't expect that. I saw on the map that there were several towns here, but we have been running for half a month, and those towns have either disappeared or there are monsters wandering around. We dare not go in. Just now, we were scared into the bushes by the monster in the town..."

"Cough cough!"

Before Sangge could finish his words, Xiaonan interrupted him by coughing twice.

"My senior brother speaks quickly and is prone to saying the wrong thing. It's not that we don't dare to go in, but we are worried that dealing with those monsters will waste our spells and magic weapons."

"Ah, ah, right, right!" Sanger nodded quickly, "Our magic weapon is very powerful, otherwise we wouldn't dare to run around in this wilderness."

"But I see your faces are all pale with fear."

"Uh, ahem! Well, no matter how useful a magic weapon is, people will still be afraid of it."

Xiao Nan on the side shook his head but didn't say anything.

"Okay, I get it." Ying said with some amusement.

This Sangge was indeed as stupid as he looked, and after the exchange just now, Ying was sure that they were not monsters.

At least he didn't think the monster would talk to her so much.
