Jiraiya's Heroic Stories: Genshin Impact

"untie!"

Orochimaru walked to Paimon helplessly and stretched out two fingers. With a slight thought, he dragged Paimon out of the illusion.

What a naive child, his dreams are also so simple and pure, unlike the others.

Orochimaru glanced at Jiraiya, the traveler, and Kurumi beside him. Without exception, they all had sadness in their eyes.

Especially the little girl named Walnut, who has been squatting in the corner and drawing circles by herself since a while ago. It seems that she is autistic.

No one who has hope and dreams in their hearts wants to wake up from a beautiful dream. But Orochimaru is different.

Family, friendship, love... world domination, world peace... every character in Naruto is fighting for these emotions. Only Orochimaru is not understood by the world and is devoted to science.

"Don't run away, Slime Stir-fried Sweet Flower Stuffed Chicken! Awooo!" Paimon, who had just been freed from the illusion by Orochimaru, suddenly flew up as if sleepwalking and bit Orochimaru's forearm.

"Emm, why does the taste seem wrong?" Paimon squinted his eyes and said incoherently.

The next moment when he opened his eyes in a daze, what he saw was the terrifying face of Orochimaru.

At this time, it was not known whether Orochimaru did it intentionally or unintentionally, but he exposed his fangs and licked his tongue with a malicious look.

Normally it's Orochimaru who bites people, how could it be my turn to be bitten by someone else?

Paimon was also stunned by Orochimaru's stare, and got goose bumps all over his body. Without thinking, he ran behind the traveler. People are irritable when their sweet dreams are disturbed.

But Paimon couldn't get angry this time.

He hurriedly shouted, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Paimon didn't mean it! And don't even think about eating Paimon! Paimon really doesn't smell like milk! And you disturbed Paimon's sleep!"

...Listening to Paimon's words, the traveler covered his forehead. If he wasn't cute, he would be beaten eight times a day.

And what kind of weird dish is this fried chicken stuffed with sweet flowers made from slime? Even Xiangling wouldn't try this dish!

After calming down for a while, Paimon timidly stuck his head out and looked behind everyone in surprise.

Then he asked in confusion: "Huh? Are we back? Why is the entrance door gone?"

Following Paimon's instructions, the traveler looked towards the entrance. Sure enough, there was only a dark area left. The figure at the entrance gate had disappeared!

"Orochimaru! What's going on? Didn't you promise that the fake Paimon wouldn't move? Why, we changed our position! Now we can't get out!"

Looking at the disappearing gate, the Traveler suddenly stood up and yelled at Orochimaru.

"Traveler..."

This really scared little Paimeng. In all the time he had been with the Traveler, he had never seen the Traveler act like this.

After all, it is rare for a traveler to even speak on a normal day, let alone be so emotional. It is really not in line with the character setting.

However, Orochimaru did not get angry. After being killed by Sasuke once and sealed by Uchiha Itachi once, Orochimaru rarely had any violent emotional fluctuations.

Jiraiya, who was standing by, gently patted the traveler on the back. Sure enough, the environment here affects people's hearts and can magnify certain emotions and desires.

"Let's look over there first." Orochimaru calmly turned his head in the direction he said, but he turned his head more than 100 degrees, which was obviously beyond the limit of human beings. This scared Paimon again.

Under the stone wall in that direction was the "wall dust" left behind when Wuku destroyed the stone wall of the maze. It was still scattered on the ground, and there were even fingerprints left by everyone when they were observing.

The traveler looked again and saw the fake Paimon still tied in the center. It looked like he had not moved.

So, could it be that Daimon grew legs and ran away? The traveler was confused, but he still apologized to Orochimaru politely, "Sorry, I don't know what happened just now. I lost my composure."

"Okay, okay! I've observed it just now. The reason why we can't reach the end is that the wall is constantly changing. On the other hand, the ground we are standing on may also be moving!"

It turns out that Hu Tao was not drawing circles to herself, but studying the current situation. It seems that she was the least affected?

"The ground is moving? Ah! Are we really in the belly of some giant monster? Paimon doesn't want to go out the back door anymore... Never mind, given the current situation. Just being able to get out is good enough."

Paimon surrendered a little too quickly...

However, Walnut shook his head and said, "Now it seems that this is more like a mechanical device."

"Mechanical engineering?" Everyone was still somewhat unfamiliar with this term.

Hu Tao nodded and continued, "Among the ancient sages of Liyue, there was one who made a bird out of only wood, and it was able to fly in the sky for three days. There was also another sage who made cattle and horses out of only wood, and they were able to climb mountains and cross rivers without human power."

"Are the stories you are talking about all from legends? They are impossible in reality, right? Or should they be like the ruins guards, some kind of black technology from an ancient civilization?" Paimon questioned.

However, Walnut still shook his head.

"It seems that due to the blessing of the Emperor and the immortals of Liyue, Liyue's technology has never flourished. There is no method to manufacture those mechanical monsters.

But regarding mechanical arts, the one you are more familiar with should be Guizhong Ji. As one of the Emperor's allies, Guizhong once taught her mechanical arts to the people of Liyue. "

Orochimaru watched Kurumi and the travelers chatting about a story he had never heard of. He could only step forward and interrupt them, saying, "So let's get back to the point. What clues have you seen from this mysterious mechanical technique?"

In response to Orochimaru's question, Kurumi immediately took out twenty neatly-shaped stones of different sizes from behind her and started fiddling with them.

While displaying them, he introduced them: "This is a very popular puzzle game in Liyue. It is called "Send Back to the End". It is said that it is about the death of the Dust Demon in the Demon War.

Later, her people invented this game to commemorate her.

"Sending Back to the End" is a chessboard consisting of 20 squares. There is a group of four small squares representing the end of the Demon God of Dust.

The four blocks of two small squares in a row represent the demons that are about to besiege the enemy, such as Osel, Chi, Poseidon, etc.

A block consisting of two small squares horizontally represents the emperor who wants to save Guizhong, and a block consisting of four small squares horizontally represents the people of Guizhong.

What we need to do is to move the group of four small squares representing the final destination out of the board without crossing over other groups.

Don’t underestimate this game. If you don’t know how to arrange the moves, you will end up back at square one. You may not be able to complete the game even if you play for days and nights.”

As Walnut was talking, Paimon had already started to try it out excitedly. But after fiddling with it for a while, he found that he was just standing still.

"Uh... it's too difficult. My head still hurts. I don't want to play anymore." Paimon covered his head and pulled the Traveler again, signaling the Traveler to give it a try.

However, the traveler walked a few more steps before getting stuck in the same place. Then Jiraiya stepped forward and started to point fingers. It was a mess but no progress was made.

"There are 352 ways to arrange the array alone, not to mention every possible way of moving that needs to be tried." While everyone was making a noise, Orochimaru just took a quick look and quickly worked out a solution.

This is the difference between genius and ordinary people...

"But it shouldn't be that troublesome. Traveler, you have been dealing with this organization called Fatui for so long. Do you have any organ tissues from their deceased members?"

"Ah?" Both the Traveler and Paimon found it hard to believe. This was a question a human could ask.

What are the uses of the organs and tissues of the Fatui members? (You can upgrade your talents, but I'll save your life.)

But you know what, the travelers really have it... Thinking of this, he took out a heart burning with flames from his backpack.
