Genshin Impact: Quietly Investing for Six Thousand Years

Narukami Taisha Shrine.

Under the sacred cherry tree, a white figure stood quietly.

The erect white fox ears moved, and when it turned around and saw the person coming, a smile instantly appeared on its pretty face.

"You came."

Chen Mo nodded, and then looked at the sacred cherry tree, feeling the vague connection.

More than ten days have passed since the last time Sasayuri's soul was placed inside.

These days, that wisp of soul, like a candle in the wind, is growing stronger day by day.

But...it still does not meet the requirements for resurrection.

Looking at Chen Mo's serious expression, Hu Zhaigong took out his pipe and wanted to relax. When he looked up unintentionally, he met Chen Mo's calm eyes.

I had no choice but to put it away in disappointment, after all, I promised him not to smoke.

"When did it resume?" Chen Mo asked.

He remembered asking Kitsaigong to quit smoking because the fox always spit smoke in his face.

"When you died there." Hu Zhaigong said seemingly unintentionally.

"Here, try it."

As he spoke, Hu Zhaigong handed the pipe to Chen Mo, his golden eyes filled with smiles.

Chen Mo took it helplessly and poured out the white powder inside.

Suddenly, a spicy smell spread.

It is the "special chili powder" of Kitsaigu.

Yae's childhood nightmare, Kitsusaigumi's specialty.

Chen Mo said helplessly: "You are so old and still doing this kind of tricks."

Hu Zhaigong chuckled and said, "You and I are not old acquaintances, and you didn't raise me..."

Chen Mo knew clearly that the old acquaintances she was talking about were the Raiden sisters, and the ones who were raised were Xiao Yae and Chiyo.

She has neither of these.

The white fox had no choice but to find another way and kept playing pranks to try to make Chen Mo remember her.

"You want them all, when will you want me too?" Hu Zhaigong looked at him quietly, his eyes seemed to be glowing.

"I don't dare to accept it! Having a pink fox at home is noisy enough." Chen Mo smiled and knocked on Hu Zhaigong's head with his pipe.

"Do you want to become smaller so that I can raise you?"

There was a hint of regret in the voice.

Little Yae was so interesting when he was a child, and maybe Kitsunayaguni would be even more interesting when he was a child.

"Hmph!" Hu Zhaigong snorted, crossed her arms across her chest, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

This guy must have some strange hobbies, otherwise why would he like children so much?

"You didn't come here just to talk about this, did you?" Chen Mo asked doubtfully.

In his impression, although Hu Zhaigong liked to play tricks on people, he also knew his limits.

"Of course not..." Kitsusaigong stroked his white hair and leaned closer to say, "I have made something great at Naruto-Taisha Shrine, and I would like to invite you to come and see it."

"You should discuss the things about Narukami Taisha with Xiao Yae or Sanbugyo." Chen Mo instinctively distanced himself from her, always feeling that she was up to something again.

He didn't care about Chen Mo's step back.

Hu Zhaigong smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth, her beautiful eyes flickering as she said, "Leave it to them, I'm afraid you won't be willing to do so."

Chen Mo's heart skipped a beat. What was she going to do?

Looking towards Hu Zhai Palace, her delicate face was lightly made up, as if she had been carefully dressed up.

The ordinary shrine maiden costume, when worn on her, exudes an indescribable attraction.

When she smiled, her beautiful eyes curved, and a white fox's shadow could be seen faintly behind her.

Chen Mo asked puzzledly: "Why should I be reluctant to give up?"

Kitsusai-guni blinked and smiled, "This is a new location opened by Naruto-jin Taisha. Would you like to visit and experience it?"

New location?

Chen Mo looked at her and asked, "Have you been busy with this these days?"

He heard from Yae that he was busy, and it turned out that he had other things to do.

Hu Zhaigong shook his head and said with a smile: "Come with me to take a look."

As he said this, he took Chen Mo's hand and walked towards the back of the shrine.

Chen Mo held the jade hand and felt a sticky feeling in his hand.

He raised his head and looked at Huzaigong's back in surprise, wondering in his heart, is she nervous?

There is only one Mingjin Taisha Shrine on the top of the entire Yingxiang Mountain. There are many houses here and many shrine maidens live here.

The two came to a closed house.

Chen Mo keenly sensed a stream of damp heat emanating from inside.

The point is, there is no other smell.

There is a sign at the door saying "Temporarily Closed".

Hu Zhaigong turned his head and motioned Chen Mo to open the door and take a look.

Chen Mo pushed open the door and what came into view was a wooden shelf and some round storage baskets.

His expression suddenly became strange. Isn't this Inazuma's bathhouse?

Chen Mo asked, "Is this also considered a new location?"

Kitsaigong smiled and said, "Well...why doesn't it count?"

"After all, refurbished is still considered new..."

Chen Mo rolled his eyes in annoyance. It was here that he was badly cheated by Hu Zhai Palace last time.

"I've seen it, and I'm leaving now."

After saying that, Chen Mo was about to leave. The memories here were both good and bad.

Seeing that Chen Mo was about to leave, Hu Zhaigong quickly hugged Chen Mo's arm and pushed him inside, saying, "Come in and take a look! There are still some things that haven't been dealt with."

Push it inward and close the door at the same time.

Chen Mo sensed again and again that there was indeed no one inside, so he followed Hu Zhaigong inside.

When he came to the hot spring, Chen Mo looked around and asked, "Where is the 'Flint' I left here?"

This thing is a heating and regulating mechanism made by Liu Yun. A little bit of elemental force can make it work. When placed at the bottom of a hot spring, it will continuously emit heat.

He just sensed it and found that there was no "flint" he left at the bottom of the water.

"Yes! Otherwise, why would I call you here!" Kitsaigong smiled like a cunning fox.

Chen Mo looked at her quietly and said, "Take it out."

Hu Zhaigong bit his lower lip aggrievedly, tears in his eyes, "You are mean to me~"

"..."

Before Chen Mo could make any move, Hu Zhaigong took out something that looked like a stone and threw it to him.

Chen Mo raised his hand to take it, examined it carefully, injected immortal power into it, and found that there seemed to be a problem with the circulation.

Find the problem clearly and start to disassemble it.

Although he was not as interested in mechanical arts as Liu Yun, he had won a few times after all.

Repairing a "flint" is no problem at all.

Chen Mo didn't look up and asked, "Has this happened before?"

“There have been a few times, but the Son of God needed to take it to Liyue for repair.” Hu Zhaigong looked at him curiously.

Chen Mo's ten fingers flew, his movements were very fast.

Soon, the "Flint" was repaired by him.

Chen Mo injected a trace of immortal power, gradually felt the heat it emitted, and couldn't help shaking his head.

Seeing this, Kitsai Palace asked, "Is the thing broken?"

She knew that Chen Mo would definitely be able to fix it, and if he couldn't, there must be something wrong with the "flint".

Chen Mo shook his head, threw it into the pool, and said, "No, I'll make you a new one some other day."

Kitsusai nodded and suddenly said, "After the Rongcai Festival, let's take a hot spring bath at Narugami Taisha."

Chen Mo nodded subconsciously, then turned his head to look at her, "No!"

Kitsaigong said with a smile: "You are not thinking about anything weird again, are you? Da mee, da meeyo!"

Chen Mo remained silent. There is a hot spring in the castle tower. Why should I go to Narukami Taisha Shrine?

"Just treat it as a party, okay~"

Seeing that Chen Mo did not react, Hu Zhaigong shook his arm close to Chen Mo and pouted his lips in a coquettish manner.

"You have accepted everything that Inazuma could accept. Even if something happens, it won't matter to you." Kitsusai Palace said as if it was a matter of course.

Chen Mo let out a breath and was about to refuse.

Then I heard Hu Zhaigong say, "In that case, it's a deal."

He looked as if he was afraid that Chen Mo would refuse him.

Chen Mo didn't say anything, just watched the steam slowly rising from the water.

A trace of immortal power in the "Fire Stone" was withdrawn to ensure that it was operating normally.

Chen Mo was about to get up when he heard a rustling sound behind him.

The white shrine maiden's costume fell to the ground, and the huge white fox tail stretched out, covering everything.

The next moment, Chen Mo felt a hot body hugging him from behind.

"Don't worry, it's just you and me here."

"Chen Mo, please satisfy my prank this time... Okay..."

Hu Zhaigong's pretty face gently rubbed against Chen Mo's back, and her voice was more gentle than ever before.

"Besides, if you want revenge, then do it right here..."

Chen Mo looked at the steam rising from the hot spring in front of him, felt the softness coming from behind, and murmured.

"I was fooled by you again..."

Not only does he need to repair the "flint", he also needs to repair the fox.

……

Dark clouds covered the bright moon, making it appear and disappear from time to time.

The hot water of the hot spring overflowed, and the waves rolled, one after another, hitting the rocks beside the spring...
