Genshin Impact: A Traveler with Only Two Skills

"Ying! Go on!"

Guiyan stood on a tree, which was a peach tree. Even though the weather was so cold, there were still several peaches scattered on the tree. Guiyan had sharp eyes and quickly found the last few remaining peaches. He picked them and threw them to Ying.

"Can these peaches really be eaten?" Ying steadily caught the peaches thrown by Guiyan. Looking at the peaches that were still plump and translucent in the cold wind, although she swallowed involuntarily because of hunger, her reason still made her stay alert.

"Of course it's no problem. I've been eating it for a long time." Gui Yan jumped down from the tree, holding the last peach on the tree in her hand. She wiped the dust off it and bit it directly into her mouth.

"Aww!"

The inside of the peach was the same as its appearance. Gui Yan bit into it and squeezed out rich juice. The light pink juice dripped from the corners of Gui Yan's mouth, and a sweet scent began to fill the air.

Ying swallowed again, hesitated for a while, and finally put the peach away.

"I'll eat later."

"Gululu~~~"

As luck would have it, Ying's stomach growled again at this time. Ying was startled by the sound. Guiyan, who was chewing the fruit, also paused. She quickly swallowed the food in her mouth and then laughed out loud.

"Hahahahahaha!" Gui Yan pointed at Ying, then pointed at Ying's stomach, and then handed the half-eaten peach to Ying.

"You should eat something. This is the first time I know that a person's stomach can growl so loudly."

"No thanks." Ying blushed and refused, quickly changing the subject:

"I plan to go to the village where you lived before. I would like to trouble you to lead the way for me after you finish eating."

"Why go there? Maybe everyone is dead. If I had to choose, I would still like to go find an immortal. I heard that some immortals have the spell to bring the dead back to life. Maybe they can save everyone."

"Resurrection from the dead?" Ying remembered this description in his mind, and then asked Guiyan:

"The immortals you mentioned, are they powerful?"

"Awesome! Of course it's awesome!"

"Then did you also say that the immortals have been possessed by demons?"

"Well - but what I want to find are those immortals who have not been possessed by demons. There must be immortals who have not been possessed by demons." Gui Yan shook his head.

"But we can't be sure whether the immortal we find is possessed by a demon. If we encounter a possessed immortal, we can't guarantee that he won't attack us, right?"

"That's true……"

"Are we not going to look for an immortal? No, everyone told me to look for an immortal." Gui Yan put down the peach in his hand, looked at Ying, and frowned.

"Don't worry, I will accompany you to find the immortal." Ying comforted, "But I have to understand the situation here first. After all, I came from another world, and many things are still unclear. I want to see the situation in your village first."

"Okay." Guiyan picked up the peach again, ate it in a few bites, and then said, "I will take you to the village, but I won't go back with you. I haven't found the immortal yet, and I'm embarrassed to go back."

"Okay." Ying nodded.

The peach was quickly eaten and Guiyan planned to go to a river to wash his face. Ying was also feeling thirsty and thought that since there were no peaches to eat, it would not be a problem to drink some water.

The river was not far from the peach tree, and it took about ten minutes to walk there. What made Ying happy was that the river looked very clean.

The river water is clear, and the river bottom near the shore is smooth pebbles, and underneath is some fine river sand. The water becomes deeper as you go towards the center of the river. About half a meter away from the shore, the water appears to be nearly one person deep. Further away, the river bottom becomes a little blurry.

Ying walked to the river and stretched out her hand to test the temperature of the water. The icy feeling made her realize that if she wanted to drink the water directly, she would need to be mentally prepared.

She looked around but didn't find anything to hold the water, which meant she had to drink it with her hands.

"Huh!" Ying breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her head, and just as she stretched her hand into the river, she saw the reflection of her own face on the water.

However, the breeze blowing around and her action of putting her hand into the water disturbed the calmness of the river surface, making the reflection on the river surface fragmented.

But the river surface soon returned to stability, but with a little ups and downs. Ying's face grew larger and smaller with the waves of the river, looking like she was in a strange funhouse mirror. However, in the process, Ying found that there seemed to be something abnormal about her reflection.

It no longer looked like a simple reflected image, but rather like another self that was deliberately making a weird face.

Ying's gaze froze instantly, and she felt her hair stand on end. At the same time, the reflection also noticed the change in Ying's expression, and then, the corners of "it"'s mouth curled up and revealed a smile.

A smile that is very close to reality, but more terrifying than a fake one.

Wow!

Before Ying could react, she felt a force coming from behind her, pulling her away from the river.

She fell on the river bank with a plop. The soft mud and sand did not cause her much harm, but she was hit by the stones embedded in the mud and sand.

At this time, Ying's gaze was still a little confused. When her eyes refocused, she saw Guiyan's face.

"Don't stay near the river for too long." Gui Yan stretched out a finger and circled it in the air, then reached his hand to the back of his head and scratched it embarrassedly.

"Hey, I forgot to tell you before."

Ying then realized that her back was already wet with cold sweat. She looked at the river water with some shock and asked:

"What would happen if I just stood there?"

Ying suddenly found that her voice was still calm.

"I don't know that either, but I heard from the old people in the village that if a person stands by the river for a long time, the water ghost in the river will crawl out, drag the person to the bottom of the river and drown him. Then the person will become the next water ghost, and the original water ghost will be free."

Guiyan said as he stretched out his face and hands in front of Ying, with a few water droplets on them.

"But as long as I move faster, the water ghost won't know I've been here."

But Ying didn't answer. She looked at the river, not knowing what she was thinking.

Guiyan thought Ying was frightened and was about to comfort her, but he saw Ying take out a sword from somewhere.

It was a one-handed sword that was completely blue and looked like it had gone through a long time, but the ritual decorations on it were still clearly visible.

After Ying took out the sword, her aura became fiercer. Guiyan saw a green energy lingering around her. Then, Ying swung the sword suddenly, and the energy turned into three green arrows that shot into the river.
