Genshin Impact: Return of the Water Queen

"Eh? Sister Luo Chaya?" Qiqi was stunned for a moment and looked at Luo Chaya in surprise.

Luo Chaya let Qiqi lean against her arms in a more comfortable position, and then said to her: "The cured meat steamed bread is made of cornmeal, Jueyun pepper, and local pork smoked by farmers. It tastes slightly salty, with the aroma of smoked fireworks, and the spiciness of Jueyun pepper, which is very stimulating to the taste buds and makes people feel warm when eating it."

Luo Chaya told Qiqi how it felt to eat steamed buns with bacon.

Qiqi, who had no sense of taste or pain, could not taste the deliciousness of the bacon steamed bread, but when she heard Luo Chaya say this, she suddenly laughed, then turned around, faced Luo Chaya, put her arms around her waist, rested her head on her chest, and said, "Thank you, sister Luo Chaya! You are the first person to tell me this!"

"I won't be the last one, Qiqi." Luo Chaya also hugged Qiqi.

The two lived in the ruins and were not worried about any attacks from monsters or hillbillies. Whether it was Qiqi or Luo Chaya, they were not made of dough! If monsters and hillbillies came, they would be the ones lying on the ground.

A good night's sleep.

Luo Chaya woke up earlier than Qiqi. She looked at Qiqi who was sleeping peacefully in her arms and did not wake her up. Instead, she let her sleep in that position.

After a long while, Qiqi finally woke up from her sleep.

As soon as she woke up, she apologized to Luo Chaya, "Sorry, Qiqi, I slept too long! Sister Luo Chaya's embrace is so warm and comfortable. Qiqi has never slept so comfortably!"

"It's okay. If you want to sleep in the future, you can sleep in my arms!" Luo Chaya pinched Qiqi's face. Even though she was nestled in her arms, Qiqi still had no body temperature, and her face was not soft and warm like a normal person's. Instead, it looked stiff.

"Is it okay?" Qiqi's eyes lit up after hearing Luo Chaya's words.

"Of course you can! Qiqi, just treat me as your real sister!" Luo Chaya held Qiqi's little face and said to her seriously. It was her luck to have such a cute little Lolita as her sister.

Luo Chaya admitted that her maternal love was a little excessive.

Qiqi looked at Luo Chaya. As a three-eyed and five-manifested immortal, she could see Luo Chaya's sincerity. So, she also reached out and grasped Luo Chaya's hands, and said to her very solemnly: "Sister Luo Chaya, you are the best, the best, the best person Qiqi has ever met!"

"You've only met a few of them!" Luo Chaya smiled indulgently after hearing Qiqi's description of her.

Qiqi counted on her fingers and said to herself, "I remember... Ah Gui, Hu Tao, and Mr. Bai Zhu... and, and..."

The people Qiqi remembered were all the people she saw every day. As for Hu Tao...

It was simply because Hu Tao wanted to bury Qi Qi every time she saw her. As time went by, Qi Qi had to remember Hu Tao! So much so that every time she saw her, Qi Qi would instinctively run away.

Luo Chaya burst out laughing and said, "Okay, let's pack up and get ready to go!"

"Yeah!" Qiqi nodded, came out of Luo Chaya's arms, and twisted her joints. As a zombie, she needed to do soft gymnastics every day to keep her body moving, but today when she came out of Luo Chaya's arms, her body didn't seem stiff.

This strange feeling confused Qiqi, but she didn't think much about it. She walked to the side, put on her medicine basket, stared at Luo Chaya with her shining eyes, and said, "Let's go! Sister!"

Luo Chaya put out the fire and set out for Qingce Village again with Qiqi.

"Does Qiqi often go out for several days like this to collect herbs?" Seeing that Qiqi didn't feel uncomfortable at all and seemed to be accustomed to this situation, Luo Chaya couldn't help but ask curiously.

Qiqi nodded and said, "Yes, Qiqi often stays outside for several days alone to collect herbs! Because Qiqi is a zombie, there are many dangers for Qiqi, don't worry! Qiqi often goes to Tianheng Mountain, Dunyu Mausoleum, and... and..."

At this point, Qiqi's face wrinkled, "I can't remember."

"It's okay, don't think about it if you can't remember." Luo Chaya waved her hand and comforted Qiqi.

As they walked, they could already see the tall Wangshu Inn. Luo Chaya looked up at the sun and estimated that it was almost noon, so they could go to Wangshu Inn for lunch.

Just as he was thinking this, a large group of hillock people suddenly rushed out from the front, with black mist flashing on their bodies. They were holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, including bows and crossbows, torches, and even hillock shamans.

"Qiqi, be careful!" Luo Chaya quickly stood in front of Qiqi to block these hillbillies for her. At the first sight of these hillbillies, Luo Chaya knew that they were not ordinary hillbillies, and they must have been contaminated by the evil karma of the Liyue land!

The hillbillies rushed towards Luo Chaya and Qiqi. Just when Luo Chaya had taken out the "Light of Judgment of the Angry Sea" and was ready to take action, a shout of Jing Yao Nuo Wu rang out, and then she saw a green figure rushing into the hillbilly crowd, killing everyone in its vicinity.

The strong and polluted wind elemental force exploded, and no Hillil could escape.

The green figure swung his spear and killed all the polluted hillbillies. He held the spear, panting slightly, and took off the hideous mask on his face. Then he turned around to look at Luo Chaya and Qiqi and asked, "Are you okay?"

Luo Chaya had already put away the "Light of the Wrathful Sea Judgement". She turned around, took Qiqi's hand, and said, "Actually... we'll be fine even if you don't help. But thank you anyway, Xiao."

“Sorry…” Xiao put away the “Harmony Kite” after seeing Luo Chaya, scratching his head a little embarrassedly, “With you and Master Jiukudu’e here, these hillbillies are no match for you. It’s just that my mission is to eliminate the monsters and karma in Liyue. These are my jobs, so I naturally can’t let you two do it.”

"Xiao is really... dedicated!" Luo Chaya was deeply moved as she watched Xiao, whose karma had deepened due to dealing with these corrupt Hilichurls.

"Save the suffering and save the people, are you talking about me?" Qiqi looked at Xiao and pointed at himself.

Xiao nodded and said, "Yes."

"I am... Qiqi. What's that, saving people from suffering and disasters?" Qiqi tilted her head and looked at Xiao blankly. She couldn't remember her immortal name, "True Lord of Rescuing People from Suffering and Disasters". She only knew that she was Qiqi.
