Genshin Impact: Opening a store to draw cards is exciting

Chapter 60: Little Walnut, his solo adventure failed just as it started!

In the middle of the night, Little Walnut sneaked out of the camp.

Her eyes were full of hope of finding her grandfather, which made her rush out regardless of the cold outside.

But Chen Xiao, who she thought was asleep, opened his eyes slightly at this moment, and his figure flashed and followed nearby.

"You still haven't given up yet... We've come this far, and that's already proved a lot..."

Chen Xiao was on the treetops not far away, looking at the small figure and trying hard to lower his voice.

As if he was afraid of waking someone up, he walked around with a photo of his grandfather.

Sometimes I would catch a few fluttering fireflies and ask them, and sometimes I would catch butterflies and ask them.

Soon, a series of light blue shadows flashed by, and Little Walnut suddenly became happy.

Because these seemed to be the ghosts she had seen before, and this was also the place closest to the exit of the underworld.

If anyone has seen Grandpa, she can also reunite with him here.

At least there has to be a good outcome.

"Hello uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, have you seen my grandpa? He looks like this and loves to laugh. Have you seen him?"

Little Walnut jumped in front of the ghosts and waved the photos in his hand hard, as if he was afraid that they couldn't see clearly.

However, several ghosts were just floating around unconsciously, as if they would collapse at any time.

Naturally, no one answered Little Walnut's expression, and Little Walnut was not afraid at all, and continued to chase the ghosts and ask questions.

However, most of the souls floating around the periphery seemed dazed and confused, as if they had lost their spiritual intelligence.

In Chen Xiao's eyes, these ghosts are composed of different energy bodies, which can be regarded as the concrete characteristics of the soul.

The question of the existence of the soul can be said to be the most fundamental question of the entire universe, and Chen Xiao didn’t think too much about it.

Watching these ghosts floating away, Little Walnut was a little disappointed, but he still cheered up and walked towards the depths of Wuwangpo.

Moreover, his steps were steady, and each step was as if he were walking on flat ground. It seemed that this was not his first time here.

It's normal, after all, Xiao Hutao's grandfather often takes her with him when he travels.

So it’s not surprising that Little Walnut knows the route.

Chen Xiao also moved on the treetops. There was a north wind blowing at night, casting streaks of tree shadows in the wind.

But these didn't seem to scare Little Walnut at all. She was not afraid of ghosts or spirits at all.

In Little Walnut's eyes, they are all the deceased souls of others, people that other relatives want to see but cannot.

Therefore, as the ferryman of souls, little Walnut has never been afraid of them since childhood. He is even very close to them and will not hurt them.

After walking for a long distance, Little Walnut gestured the distance between himself and the camp.

After confirming that I could walk back before morning, I decided to continue asking further questions.

But accidentally, she stepped on a rotten wooden board, and the little figure let out a scream.

"Ah! Help—"

Then there was a splash, and her small figure fell directly into the cold lake water.

But before she could struggle, a roar suddenly sounded in the air.

A terrifying monster with a sturdy figure suddenly appeared near Little Walnut.

“Ahhh, help—”

The next moment, a figure fell down with a loud bang and stepped on the head of the beast hound directly on the ground. The sharp claws were less than half an inch away from Xiao Hutao's forehead.

Flames appeared from under Chen Xiao's feet, instantly blasting the beast hound in front of him into pieces. Then he fished Little Walnut out of the pool.

Looking at the wet little guy with a wronged look on his face, Chen Xiao wanted to say something but held it back.

"It's nice. I took a cold bath in the middle of winter."

"Well, you were obviously awake, why didn't you remind me..."

"You ran out by yourself, and I see you are quite familiar with this place."

"It's familiar..."

Little Walnut knew that he was in the wrong, so he ran out on his own, lowered his head, and his two wet ponytails became listless.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left home without permission..."

"It's enough that you know your mistake, but shouldn't your clothes get wet..."

Chen Xiao looked at the obvious small hole in Hu Tao's clothes. The cotton in the hole was actually spilling out, making her look like a chick that had lost its feathers.

"Ah, the cotton coat that grandpa made—"

Little Walnut cried out in pain and tears suddenly welled up in his eyes.

This pitiful look really made people feel a little bit sorry for it. Chen Xiao turned his palm over, and the scorching breath instantly covered the little walnut itself.

He evaporated all the water elements outside her body. He had some experience in partial control of elemental power.

When walking on the road of destiny, you can use any elemental power you want based purely on your own will.

It's not the destiny that limits the use of elemental power. The sword master Jingliu also has a destiny of destruction, and he uses the power of ice.

"Huh? How magical! I'm not cold anymore all of a sudden...Brother, do you know magic?"

"To some extent, it is indeed magic."

In fact, this statement is also a disguised admission that he is capable and powerful.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been trampled to death by that huge beast hound with just one kick.

The light in Little Walnut's eyes gradually dimmed. Looking at the ghost shadows flickering not far away, she clenched her fists and said.

"That's the Yellow Springs, the Yellow Springs Road. I will definitely find Grandpa—"

She didn't look at Chen Xiao's reaction, because she knew what it would look like without even looking.

But Little Walnut insisted on getting the news himself and then slowly digesting the sadness.

Because Chen Xiao was guarding him, Little Hutao walked with a gait as if he didn't recognize anyone.

They walked step by step towards the depths of Wuwangpo, and the closer they got to the Yellow Springs, the more intelligent ghosts they found.

But I still didn’t see my grandfather, or hear the ghost say that he knew his grandfather.

Just then, an old man's voice suddenly came.

"That person over there, is that the granddaughter of the old Hu family? Why are you running here so late? It's so dangerous!"

Hearing the voice, Little Walnut smiled brightly, turned around, and saw another old man with kind eyes and quite friendly.

"Hey, Grandpa Ci, I'm here to look for my grandpa. Have you seen him here? Has he ever been to Huangquan?"

The old man paused and looked at Chen Xiao who was standing under a big tree not far away. Although he was just an ordinary ghost, he could also feel the terrifying power in Chen Xiao's body.

This is definitely not a simple young man.
