Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl

Chapter 179: Ghost Absorbing Physique

"Alas, there is one less poor soul in this world." Hu Tao sighed when she heard Mr. Chang Jiu's voice from a long distance away.

"But there is one more unfortunate person."

"How can life not be bitter?"

“…Master, that’s a good idea.”

After sending the extremely sad Master Chang Jiu back to Qingce Village, they had some spicy and crispy Qingce farmhouse dishes in Qingce Village. When they returned to Wuwangpo, the moon was already high in the sky.

"Strange, how can we see it when the sun is so bright during the day but not when the moon is?"

This was the first time that Wang Chen spent the night at Wuwangpo... maybe not the first time if you count the game, but he had never paid attention to it before, because it had always been like this here, as if it was eternal night.

"There are many legends about why Wuwangpo became what it is now, but none of them have any solid basis. In my opinion, why think so much about it? No one lives here anymore."

Shaking her head nonchalantly, Kurumi opened the 'door' to the 'border' and continued, "You have a special physique, so don't go in this time. Wait for me outside for a while."

As she left, the place became filled with cold winds, the bright moon was dim, insects were chirping, and ghost lights were flashing. The atmosphere suddenly became weird.

But after looking left and right, there was nothing different from before. Wang Chen closed his eyes a little worriedly and used Thousand Wind Sigh to detect the surrounding environment. After finding nothing, he simply continued to close his eyes and rest.

The damp, cold wind kept blowing through the knee-high grass or through the palm-like branches of the pine trees, making a rustling sound.

"wrong."

Wang Chen suddenly opened his eyes and looked up at the sky.

In the dark night of Wuwangpo, you can not only see the moon, but also the stars in the sky and the Milky Way belonging to Teyvat.

The reason for the formation of the fog at Wuwangpo may be related to the devil or the earth veins. In any case, it is ultimately attributed to unnatural phenomena, so there is nothing much to say.

However, the sun cannot be seen in this fog, but the moon and stars can be seen. Regardless of whether the fog and the moon come from the same force or whether they are related to each other, at least there is a difference between the sun, the moon and the stars!

Mona's master mentioned the concept of "false sky", and Sanbing also said that "the starry sky is a huge lie". Then, can the different performances of the sun and the moon on Wuwangpo indicate that at least the sun is real, and not completely fake?

It feels like I have discovered something incredible again. Although these clues are all incoherent, I will be able to talk to Zhongli soon. I must ask him some questions then.

"Um……?"

Qian Feng sighed that he had not found anything unusual, but there seemed to be something moving in the corner of his eyes? Dozens of winds instantly focused on that location, but found nothing.

After hesitating for a while, Wang Chen bravely walked over. The thing hiding behind the tree was more scared than him, and ran back in panic.

"who!"

"Don't catch me! I don't want to die yet!" A ghost-like little girl cried and shouted while trying to escape, but unfortunately her legs were too short and she couldn't outrun Wang Chen.

"Are you good or bad?"

"I'm a good ghost and have never done anything bad... Don't, don't kill me..." The little girl squatted down with her head in her hands, trembling.

"Then why were you spying on me?"

"I didn't mean to! I wanted to get away but somehow ended up nearby. I got scared when I saw you guys!"

"Wait until Kurumi comes back and let her make the judgment."

The little girl's face was filled with fear, and she shook her head like a rattle: "No, no, no! I absolutely cannot let her see me. I don't want to disappear like Xiao Jiujiu!"

Wang Chen's vigilance soared, and the Heavenly Sword was already pointed in front of the little girl: "Even Xiao Jiujiu knows about it. How long have you been following us?!"

"Wow! Twice, twice! The last time you guys came, it was the same. I somehow ended up near there... I hid well last time and wasn't discovered. This time I tried to run away but you caught me..."

"What does inexplicable mean?"

"I know! Inexplicable is a word, it means 'something is very strange and makes no sense'!"

"…I was talking about what you meant by inexplicable."

The little girl scratched her head and asked innocently, "Did I remember it wrong? It's inexplicable, right?"

"You mean, you don't want to get close to us, but you're getting close to us for no reason?"

"Yes, it's inexplicable!"

Looking at the little girl's short hair with bangs, Wang Chen felt vaguely familiar with her. He asked tentatively, "What's your name?"

"My name is Qianqian. I have never done anything bad, and I don't have any obsessions. I just don't want to die. Please don't hand me over to that big sister!"

Qianqian is the little girl who appeared in Chongyun’s invitation mission.

I wonder how Kurumi would deal with a ghost like this... Since her obsession is not to die, if we want a peaceful solution, we can only wait until she gets tired of living.

"Go ahead, walk faster, and don't come near me for no reason again."

"Big brother, you are so nice! This time I will hide well and won't come near you again!" The little girl didn't doubt it at all and waved goodbye happily.

Then it came back two minutes later...

"What happened? I was going in the opposite direction, but before I knew it, I was..."

"Have you ever been in this situation before?"

"No."

Is it because of me?

After coming up with this idea, Wang Chen left Xiao Wen at the entrance of the "border" and personally sent Qianqian away. This time there was no "inexplicable" or "unconscious" behavior, and he successfully took her away.

"Well...then you stay here for now and don't move."

"Great!"

If I think about it carefully, I ran into Xiao Ming on the night I checked into Wangshu Inn, followed by the evil spirit from Dihuazhou, then Xiao Jiujiu, and now Qianqian. Isn't it luck that's at fault, but rather something wrong with me?

What is this, a special talent or a special physique?

While waiting for Hu Tao to return, there was another evil wind. This time, the one who came didn't intend to hide at all and floated straight over.

When it floated closer, Wang Chen realized that the other person's face was blurry and he couldn't see the facial features clearly. He could only recognize from her hair that it was a female ghost - the classic female ghost in white.

"Hello?"

The female ghost in white didn't answer, but pounced towards Wang Chen as if she couldn't bear it any longer.

"Hey, hey, men and women shouldn't touch each other."

Wang Chen had no choice but to step back and tried to use the wind to blow away the female ghost in white. However, as soon as the female ghost came into contact with the wind, her body turned into smoke and was blown away into a long mist line. However, her head and hands were still shamelessly flying towards him.

"If you don't speak, I'll treat you as an evil ghost... Humph! Wind Vortex Sword!"

All fear comes from insufficient firepower.

The woman's head also turned into smoke and was sucked into the Wind Vortex Sword. Suddenly, an unusual coldness accompanied by an indistinct wailing sound emanated from her palm, and the Wind Vortex Sword became turbid.

Wang Chen hurriedly threw it out to explode. The smoke was blown into pieces, but it condensed again and pounced on him relentlessly.

"If wind doesn't work, use fire!"

After the ghost girl's body was pulled into the Wind Vortex Sword again, some fire element particles flew out and the wailing sound turned into a shrill scream, and then there was no sound.

"Wow! Is this a ghost?!"

"Can't you see Xiao Jiujiu and Qianqian?"

"I can't see it! Maybe they didn't want me to see it, so this is the first time I've seen a ghost. I'm so moved!"

How could this be... I was thinking of asking you to help pay attention to the danger, Wang Chen sighed secretly, Qianfeng sighed as if it could not detect ghosts, after all, the wind would not feel hindered when it hit a ghost.

In the following time, he could only concentrate on paying attention to any movement around him. Fortunately, Walnut came out from the "border" soon.

"Only one ghost came? Is it because the Hall of the Dead did a great job, or is it because you are not attractive enough?"

"Is this also part of your plan?"

"It's not really a plan, I just want to confirm my guess." Walnut smiled mischievously, "Although I don't know why, you can really attract ghosts. Now I want to pull you into the Hall of the Dead!"

"Since I am already a client of Wangshengtang, then the client must also be Wangshengtang's."

"Hey, you've learned everything. Let's go, let's find a suitable place to spend the night."

"In Wuwangpo?"

"Why, it's common for adventurers to spend the night in the wild, right?"

"But there are ghosts here, and I will attract them - you want me to be bait?"

"Of course. It's a rare opportunity like this. It would be a shame not to deal with the wandering ghosts."

In the end, they didn't walk far before they found a clean place near a wall in the abandoned village where they met Xiao Jiujiu, and sat down against the wall.

Hu Tao first stabbed the Homa Staff on the ground, then reached out and fiddled with something in the air, then said to Wang Chen: "Just treat this as a normal camping trip and sleep peacefully. I'm here and I will never let them eat you!"

After saying that, she muttered "I'm going to sleep first" and closed her eyes first.

"...Xiao Wen, you should also pay more attention."

"Ok!"
