Genshin Impact: Without the Eye of God, the Original Man Witnesses the Original

"Legend has it that she once entrusted the ancestors of Konda Village with a mysterious mission. In return, she will bless our village with eternal peace and prosperity." said Eri Shibamon.

Hanasari nodded subconsciously, "It's to guard the barrier and the roots of the tree. But you almost forgot."

"But later, for some reason, Lady Fox no longer appeared, and fewer and fewer people worshipped her. That mission was also forgotten." Shibamon Eri picked up fruits and vegetables, pulled out a few weeds, and looked up and said, "Gradually, many villagers began to encounter 'ghosts' appearing around the village."

"Ghost?" Hanasari wondered. Apart from the area near the abandoned shrine, are there ghosts here?

"Yes! A ghost!" Said Shibamon Huili. People who have seen it say that the 'ghost' looks like a young girl. It appears and disappears on thunderstorm nights, sometimes near and sometimes far away..."

"It's really scary..." Hua Sanli said, "Master Jiang Yi, it seems we can investigate this."

Jiang Yi glanced at Hua Sanli and said nothing.

Just a slightly weird look.

"Some people say that this must be because everyone offered less tribute; others say that it is because the people of Konda Village forgot their mission. Lord Kitsune was very angry, so he turned into a 'ghost' to warn everyone." said Eri Shibamon.

"I...that's not right! Lord Kitsusai-gū is not angry! How could she turn into a ghost?" Hanasari objected in her heart.

"Some people say that it is no longer a white fox that brings good fortune to people, but a resentful 'evil spirit'... Once the 'evil spirit' sets its sights on you, it will follow you all the way in places you can't see..." Shibamon Eri's voice had a scary tone.

"Evil spirit! Could it be this kind of evil thing?" Hua Sanli stood up, "The Great Purification of the Divine Sakura is complete, there shouldn't be such a thing here! But Lord Jiang Yi, let's take a look around!"

“Ahem!” Jiang Yi reached out and pushed Hua Sanli back. He couldn’t help but say, “Don’t you think the other party’s description is a little familiar? A girl! A ghost! In an invisible place, following you all the way!”

“……” After Hua Sanli muttered these key words, he fell into a long period of thought.

"So, far away in the sky and yet close at hand! This description... is about me?!!!" She looked stunned and shocked, "This is too much! I was actually regarded as a ghost and a resentful evil spirit!"

Jiang Yi really wanted to say, think about it carefully, don’t you look like it?

"Ah! It seems natural!" Hanasari looked dejected. She had indeed experienced something similar before.

"Let's listen to the next story!" She sat up straight.

The next story is about the raccoon cat guarding the forest.

It tells the story of a raccoon cat who likes to play pranks and perform magic tricks, and the battle of wits and courage between him and Mr. Fox.

The raccoon cat is not an evil creature that is unforgivable. In the eyes of the Inazuma people, it is very lovable. In the story, the only thing that makes the raccoon cat unhappy and makes the fox proud is undoubtedly that the fox in the story often plays the raccoon cat around...

Although we should respect the facts, this is too much respect for the facts!

Once a raccoon cat shouted angrily!

Although there is no tail in Hua Sanli, it is undoubtedly very satisfying to hear this story.

At the end of the story, Mr. Fox mysteriously disappears. The raccoon cat feels lonely after losing his opponent, so he starts looking for fun everywhere and frequently teases the villagers passing by.

Until the next story, "The Battle of Onmyoji!"

"The mischievous raccoon cat always causes trouble everywhere, and finally one day it offended a powerful figure." Shibamon Eri put down the fruits and vegetables, "The shogunate investigated the matter and found that it was caused by a demon raccoon cat, so they sent an onmyoji named Korekami Harunosuke to solve it."

When Hanasari heard this familiar name, she already knew the ending of the third story.

"Poor little raccoon cat, how could it be compared to the great Onmyoji... In the end, it was sealed in the Guardian Forest with its companions without any suspense."

Shibamon Eri smiled and said, "If you hear strange noises in the forest now, it might be a raccoon cat calling out, 'Save me—save me—'..."

"He who cares about his reputation won't do that!" Hanasari said softly under the influence of Hanasari or Kitsaigumi's memories.

Shibamon Huili thought of something: "Oh, there are still raccoon cats in the mountains and forests."

"When you are walking in the mountains and forests, if you see a beautiful cottage, delicious food, or a golden Mora, be sure to pay attention."

"Otherwise, when you come to your senses, all the treasures will have turned into mud, and then all the joy will be in vain..."

She said with a smile.

"Come here, take these vegetables and fruits, Master Yue Yejian..." said Shibamon Eri enthusiastically.

Jiang Yi smiled and said, "It seems like it's almost time for dinner! We need to go shopping somewhere else, and it's a bit troublesome to take the food away. I wonder if the old lady can lend me the kitchen, my friend should be hungry. Let's use these vegetables to make two home-cooked dishes."

"Ah! Why didn't you say it earlier? Grandma, I was afraid that the gods would not be accustomed to our cooking skills, so I didn't dare to keep you! Come, come, you don't have to do anything, I will cook two home-cooked dishes for you. This kind of dish has a long history." Shibamon Eri said.

"By the way, can you add two pieces of fried tofu?" Jiang Yi said, "I can pay for it! After all, this is too much trouble for you."

"How can I accept your money? Many children have boasted to me, an old woman, that you gave them delicious candies during the fireworks party, and they have been praising you. We are all family in our village... I watched those children grow up." Shibamon Eri waved her hand.

"Then I'll leave a few packs of monster fireworks candy! The old lady can give them to those obedient children, and you can also try them yourself." Jiang Yi changed his mind.

"This is good! This is good! I will accept it!" said Shibato Eri.

Jiang Yi turned around and looked at Hua Sanli.

"You've never tasted human food, have you? The magic can transform the taste of the dishes in Kitsai Palace's memory, but the illusion and the reality are always different." He had not planned to stay here for dinner, but thinking of Hanasari, he asked Shibamon Eri for help.

"Lord Jiang Yi's care is truly meticulous. As a priestess, I feel deeply honored." Hua Sanli felt warm and excited.

The charm of the God is so irresistible after just a short time of interaction.

"Help wash the vegetables!" Jiang Yi said, and went to help with Hua Sanli.

It was a simple meal, but it held special meaning for Hanasari.

The chopsticks in her hand seemed strange and familiar, and the descendants of the Chaimen in front of her always made her dazed.

The taste of fried tofu... is exactly the same as what Master Hu Zhaigong remembers. No! There is still a difference, as Master Jiang Yi said, it is the difference between reality and illusion.

"It's really delicious." She took the last bite of fried tofu.

Jiang Yi declined the fruits and vegetables that Chaimen Huili was going to send him, and after listening to two more stories, he left.

There are not many young people in the village, mostly children and elderly people.

Hua Sanli stood at the entrance of the village.

During the conversation after dinner, she learned from Shibamon Eri that it was not only because of the previous war, but also because of the changes in the times. Young people went to the city to seek a future... They could not be kept, nor could they be expected to come back.

"Once upon a time, Konda Village was named after dyes. Thousands of years ago, it was the production area of ​​dyes used by the shogunate."

"The large field from the village entrance over there to the White Fox Field is all bright red and purple... The family of Master Kitsaigong sometimes strays into it, making it colorful."

The flowers were scattered with memories, "Now, I can't see them anymore."

"Although the descendants of the Chai family say that when the market is good, you can still see the bright red and purple colors..."

Jiang Yi watched with her for a while.

"Next stop, Master Jiang Yi, I want to go to the outlying island you mentioned!" Hua Sanli turned sideways and looked at Jiang Yi, "But before that, can you tell the child the exact news about Shibamon Jiro?"

"What? Do you suspect I'm lying?" Jiang Yi asked with a smile.

"No! This is not a lie, I know that. But something must have happened to the other party, and you can't tell her mother directly!" Hua Sanli was curious about the details. This might be one of the inherited natures of foxes!

"It's just a story about a farmer's child who became a deserter and got into danger because of his stupidity." Jiang Yi spoke briefly.

"Oh! Really... it sounds like a life with many ups and downs." Hanasari paused.

"Yeah!" The two of them walked towards the outlying island. On the way, Jiang Yicai talked about Shibamon Jiro in detail.

"After joining the army of General Kujo Iemasahito, he participated in the battle and saw the sky full of swords and arrows raining down! There were also artillery shells as big as Paimon bombarding the battlefield all day long!"

"They lost many comrades in several encounters with the resistance forces on Kaijima!"

Jiang Yi was not only telling the other party's story, but also explaining to Hanasari the current power and situation of Inazuma.

Hundreds of years of disconnection always require some time to integrate and understand the common sense of the current era.

So, he took Hanasari with him and walked around Inazuma.

"He doesn't have the same sense of honor passed down from his ancestors as his father."

"He was just terrified. The battlefield was too dangerous. Even though their general tried to appease them and adopted a garrison-based strategy, he and his friends still deserted."

"When escaping, even if there were others who cooperated, his friend fell and was caught, and he was the only one who managed to escape."

"Then, since I was a kid, I loved stories about great thieves, like 'Konda Ikki'. I went to the northernmost island of Narukami Island, Hatan Island. There was a Fatui advance team running rampant, treasure-stealing groups, bandits... a place full of all kinds of people, looking for treasures from the ruins."

"Wait, fishman..." Hua Sanli noticed that Jiang Yi said a word that she didn't understand.

"I have heard of 'mermaid', but what is merman? A new monster or some foul creature? A monster with a fish head and a human body?" she imagined. After all, a mermaid has a human body and a fish tail, so a merman would naturally be a human body with a fish head reversed.

"..." Jiang Yi almost forgot that the pronunciation of Fatui could be used to make such a joke.

"Hmm? It seems that there really weren't any in your era, or they were just established!" Jiang Yi thought for a moment, "They're not fishmen, but the "Foolish" in "Great Wisdom Appears Foolish", the "Human" in "Human", and the "Crowd" in "Tengu Crowd"! They are the modified humans of Solstice, each of them can use the power of elements, and now they are almost all over the continent of Teyvat, carrying out the plan of Her Majesty the Ice Queen..."
