Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

Hearing this speech, Chang Ming shook his head helplessly, but didn't say much.

——Anyway, there will definitely be some problems next, and he will have to come forward to solve them later.

But the others present were definitely not as insightful as Chang Ming.

After listening to Fu Jin's story, Xiao Mao lowered his head slightly, thought for a moment, and then spoke:

"Oh, yeah... in that case, Sister Fu Jin and Brother Chang Ming are both very old!"

"And Sister Fu Jin is much older than Brother Chang Ming, so Sister must be a genuine immortal!"

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

Fu Jin looked at Xiao Mao with some confusion, then looked at Chang Ming, who was holding his forehead speechlessly, as if he was a little confused.

Where does this inexplicable age theory come from?

"Because Brother Chang Ming has lived for five hundred years and doesn't consider himself an immortal, I call him a half-immortal."

"From your brushstrokes and your own description, Sister Fu Jin, we know that you are much older than Brother Chang Ming, so you are a genuine immortal~"

"..."

A helpless smile appeared on Fu Jin's face, but she didn't say a word, as if she was silenced.

Sure enough, people will laugh when they are extremely speechless.

After a brief silence, Fu Jin selectively ignored Xiao Mao's words and said quite naturally:

"Well... In order to prepare for the Long Tou Ceremony, I need you to help me with a few small things."

"Did you encounter a 'fairy statue' when you were adventuring? It was a ritual spirit commonly used in ancient times."

"People at that time often used it to protect their homes, and there should be statues of immortals around it."

"Everyone, please place the immortal statues around here properly. This way... we can coordinate the spiritual veins of this place for the Toulong ceremony."

Hearing this, Chang Ming sighed softly, then pointed to the stone sculpture not far away and asked softly:

"That's the thing, right? The immortal statue?"

"Eh? That's right, that's right..."

Before Fu Jin could finish his words, Chang Ming slowly closed his eyes, as if he was feeling something.

After a while, he slowly opened his eyes and said to Ying helplessly:

"Ying, maybe you need to help me this time."

"The 'immortal power' here is a little thin, and the mist... is a little abnormal. I can't control so many immortal statues at the same time."

"Just like when we awakened the vortex, you take care of half and I take care of the other half, how about that?"

Hearing this, Ying nodded blankly, and Chang Ming disappeared into the mist in an instant.

"Is Chang Ming...always so anxious?"

Paimon looked at Funina beside him with some uncertainty, as if he had gotten to know Chang Ming all over again.

"Well... occasionally?"

Fu Nina gave an ambiguous answer, and then began to observe the surrounding environment, thinking about what would happen if Fu Jin suddenly attacked...

How to protect yourself.

After all, Fu Jin is not an immortal, and...up to now, she still has a lot of key information that she has not told them.

From a more cautious perspective, this person is actually not that trustworthy.

After spending a long time with Chang Ming, Funina naturally became as cautious as Chang Ming - leaving herself enough escape routes before anything happened.

As for why he was thinking about how to protect himself...the main reason was because he didn't want to cause trouble for Chang Ming.

After all, if a fight really breaks out, the only ones present who can compete with Fu Jin, who is suspected to be a wild old monster, are Chang Ming and Ying.

If Fu Jin uses her to threaten Chang Ming again not to take action... then things will be troublesome.

Thinking of this, Finina stopped talking and turned her gaze to the mist beside her.

As for Ying...she has gone to run errands.

......

Under the operation of Chang Ming and Ying, the immortal statues have returned to their correct positions, and the two of them have also returned to the shore.

"The immortal statue is already in place."

Chang Ming's tone was quite calm, as if he was mentally prepared for what would happen next.

——Anyway, Fu Jin will definitely not be able to perform the Tou Long ritual due to lack of strength, so let them continue to help.

He has his own solution for this.

Even if Fu Jin couldn't solve all these problems at once... he could use the power of the abyss that he had just arranged to completely dispel the fog.

Let’s solve the problem here first, and then consider how to change the ecology of Chenyu Valley back to a state suitable for humans.

Thinking of this, Chang Ming nodded slightly, as if confirming his plan.

Fu Jin looked at the people in front of him with gratitude and said softly:

"Well, thanks to you all, Silong has once again returned to the hands of its priests, and the statues have returned to their corresponding positions."

"The Toulong ritual...is ready."

A slight smile appeared on Fu Jin's face, and just when she was about to turn around to perform the ceremony... Xiao Mao said something that made her heart tremble.

"But... Sister Fu Jin, will Chenyu Valley really get better after Tou Long?"

Maybe this was just a careless question from a child, but to Fu Jin...this sentence meant so much.

Chenyu Valley used to be a barren mountain, and it didn’t have the pleasant scenery it has today.

The Toulong ritual is actually about changing nature, transforming it into a place suitable for human habitation. It is not nature in the true sense.

Her other friend, Ling Yuan, has always been quite critical of this matter, and seems to be looking for some kind of answer.

but...

As the "Floating Brocade Fairy" who has been with humans for a long time, she couldn't bear to see people suffer because of this.

So, she had to do it no matter what.

Thinking of this, Fu Jin smiled lightly, and then said:

"Well, it's going to get better for us."

"Nature, beautiful jade, or people, all have their destiny. Whether it's the changes in the water and soil in Chenyu Valley or the mist contained in the spirit veins, their essence is that the earth goes against time."

"Well... you can think of it as Chen Yugu's attempt to... how should I put it, return to nature?"

"We regulate the water and soil ourselves to eradicate the root cause of the disease."

"After all, before humans left caves and forests, dominated the world and regulated nature; before the Sunken Jade Valley was called the Sunken Jade Valley and the Bishuihebei was called the Bishuihe River, the earth, mountains and rivers had their own order."

"Hehe...even I sometimes miss the cool mountain streams flowing freely and the rivers rising and falling with the four seasons. After all..."

"After all, I was once just a fish..."

"But if we allow nature to take back the order that belongs to it, it will be harmful and retrogressive for the people of Chenyu Valley. I hope you can understand."
