Genshin Impact: Emperor

Those who wish can climb to the top of the mountain step by step; if they are pityed by the element of thunder, they can ride the pole all the way up to the shrine covered by huge cherry trees.

Shenying is always open and undefeated, just like Naruto is eternal.

Go through the many torii gates, find a witch to ask for a lottery, and pray for the blessing of Naruto.

After Zhongli's words fell, the brothers and sisters in the Kendo Gym were surprised.

"This gentleman seems to be from Liyue, but he knows Dao Wife very well. Sure enough, he has indeed done a lot of work. It seems that your desire to meet Master is indeed true."

"There is nothing that Zhongli doesn't understand."

Paimon spread his hands proudly.

Junya smiled and said, "That's right, Narujin Taisha is the largest shrine in Inazuma, and the great priestess in charge of the shrine is said to have a close relationship with General Raiden..."

"So you invited this great witch?"

"Of course it's impossible. We can't ask the big witch to take action, but even ordinary witches in Narugami Taisha have absolute authority over the matter of exorcism, and this exorcism ceremony will be held at night. If the three If you are interested, you can also come and watch together.”

"Well, let's come back later in the evening."

The evening passed quickly, and I accompanied my relatives and Paimeng in Daozuma City to enjoy the friendship of the landlords, and after enjoying the local customs, I came to the Kendo Hall again, and I also waited until the night when the exorcism ceremony was held.

"Hi Junya, here we come!"

"Shh."

Chun Ye signaled Paimeng to keep silent, shook his head and said, "It's fortunate that you came late, so you didn't see how Master went crazy just now."

"What's wrong? "

"Junior Sister helped Master just now, and accidentally heard Master whispering the names of some people, Junior Sister asked who they were, Master suddenly showed a frightened expression, and pushed Junior Sister away...

?Master, he seems to be in pain, covering his ears, his eyes are bloodshot, he keeps looking around, as if there are some monsters..."

"Name? What name?" Paimon asked curiously, tilting his head.

"The names we keep calling, some we know and some we don't, seem to be sword masters that Master has defeated. One of them is called Anxi, who was Master's former brother, but

After being defeated by Master in [-], he has been wandering for four years without a fixed place.

square.

Just now... the master called his name several times, alas... Fortunately, the priestess of the shrine knocked out the master so that the ceremony could continue as usual.

Paimon clapped his palms and sighed: "It turns out that this method of exorcising evil spirits is used, I learned it!

"Stop joking around, little Paimon."

Ying gave her an angry look, and knocked her on the head, Junya pretended not to hear, shook his head and said: "Now the exorcism ceremony has started, we should wait for the result with peace of mind.

I hope Master is okay. "

"The old Hope Project... umm...".

No.30—Zhang Mirror Stops Water

"You guys wait here for a while, I'll go get some water, in case Master wakes up later and is thirsty, he can't run without water."

Saying that, Chun Ye ran to the backyard to fetch water, while Zhongli and Ying were going to wait in the open space in the front yard.

At this moment, Paimon caught a glimpse of something and said in surprise, "There is a man hiding outside the Kendo Hall. Could it be that he intends to disrupt the exorcism ceremony? Let's catch up quickly."

Looking in the direction Paimon pointed, there was indeed a figure heading towards the flow of people on the street. The speed was extremely fast. There were many ups and downs in Daozuma City, so that it quickly disappeared at the corner.

"What if it's a way to divert the tiger away from the mountain?"

"Impossible, hurry up!"

Under the guidance of Paimon, he chased all the way to Hanamizaka. In the end, the man couldn't run anymore, so he had no choice but to stop and admit defeat.

"You... huh, why are you running so fast? Are you really Tumen's apprentices? Why do you feel that your speed is faster than Tumen? Huh... Or do you mean that Tumen's body skills have improved again after not seeing each other for a few years?"

Paimon snorted: "Now is not the time for you to ask questions, we should ask you! Tell me, who are you? You are sneaky, and you can't be a good person at first sight."

"Not like a good person? When Tumen and I learned sword together, you didn't know which Yijiaoyinling you were playing with!"

The old man with white arms and a sword held his head high and said, "Although I don't want to bring up that past again, but if I really want to talk about it, Tumen has to call me senior brother!"

"Brother? Could it be that you are..."

"Yes, I am Anxi.

The rumbling tone of the old man really showed his background as a swordsman.

"Then why did you run?" Paimon was a little puzzled.

"Because I don't want to see Tumen again, and I don't want to see anyone related to him... At the beginning, I studied Mingjingzhishuiliu with him, and I studied under the same swordsman. I became a teacher five years earlier than him. A calm and reliable big brother in the eyes of people.

Ming Jing Zhi Shui Liu pursues the mind without distracting thoughts, so most of the disciples are indifferent to fame and fortune, and I am no exception.But Tumen is different. The first thing he did when he became a teacher was to ask his master with a smile: How can he become number one in the world. "

"I don't think it's a problem. As the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. The goal is to become the number one in the world. It's not bad."

"Young." Anxi scolded softly, "Master also reprimanded him at the beginning, saying that the way of swordsmanship is not for fighting for fame, and he only wants to be the strongest after practicing swords for a few days, which shows that his heart is impetuous and he will never learn swords well. "

"Not necessarily, the goal is also the motivation." Paimon interrupted again.

Anxi didn't answer this time, but said: "At that time, I agreed with Master's opinion, but later... Tumen swordsmanship grew so fast that it surpassed me when I was five years older. At that time, I realized that Tumen had already done it a long time ago. Arrived with no distractions.”

Zhongli pondered: "A clear mirror and still water doesn't mean that no private thoughts can be tolerated. Being able to understand what one wants is not a kind of clear mirror and still water."

"Mr. has unique insights. If only I could be like you at the beginning, it would be great."

Anxi recalled: "Tumen only has the matter of becoming number one in the world in his heart. What he pursues is the ultimate in swordsmanship. No matter how many setbacks he encounters, he can stand up again."

"It feels like a very powerful person, but why don't you want to see him again?" Paimon was even more puzzled.

Anxi shook his head ashamedly, "Because before he came, I had the ambition to succeed Mingjing Zhishuiliu. After all, among the many disciples of master, I have the best talent, the longest time of sword practice, and I bear everyone's expectations."

"You are the one who failed to be indifferent to fame and fortune."

"I admit it. His arrival changed everything about me... I lost all face and status in the competition with him. In the end, I fled from the teacher's school with my tail between my legs. The young me really couldn't bear the loss of face. I was too young...

Later... I heard that he went to the master to compete again, but the master was old and exhausted all his vitality in that competition... After that, I never wanted to have any interaction with him, although I asked myself, I really Still recognize his swordsmanship and his heart to pursue the way of swordsmanship. "

Anxi sighed in bewilderment.

"So when I heard the news that he was crazy, my first reaction was that the news was false. How could he be crazy? He is a genuine and majestic person who has implemented Ming Jing Zhi Shui to the extreme. Even Master said that he is not as good as Tumen!

But after all, I have some doubts. Flies don’t bite seamless eggs, so... I came here quietly to see his current situation. Although his kendo gym is famous in Inazuma Castle, I have never visited... I secretly Overheard, I didn't expect him to call me by my name... I thought he had forgotten me long ago. "

???0 ask for flowers..

His tone was full of sincerity, and he couldn't hide his thoughts at all.

"Anxi is a tsundere." Paimon whispered.

"In short... I have no intention of harming him. Don't worry, I'm just here to confirm his condition. Go back. I've told you what you want to know and what I want to say. The exorcism ceremony... should also be over. .”

He turned his back and bowed his head facing the cherry blossom trees beside the road. Paimeng, Zhongli, and Ying looked at each other, feeling a little ashamed.

"I seem to have misunderstood something. He didn't want to destroy the exorcism ceremony, but to protect it?"

"Well, Mr. Anxi is a good man." Ying also nodded in agreement.

"It's time to go back."

Zhongli stepped back along the original road, and Ying and Paimeng followed.

When I returned to the Kendo Hall, there was a priestess talking with the two brothers and sisters in the dojo. Judging by the fierce tone, it was obviously not a good thing.

"...What? Are you saying that Master is not bewitched? Could it be that Master went crazy by himself? How is this possible...I don't believe it, there must be something wrong!"

"Junior Sister, don't get excited."

"Sorry, with my ability, I really can't tell that Mr. Tumen is possessed."

The priestess in red and white uniform bowed slightly, put her hands into her big sleeves and apologized, "However, there are so many strange things in this world, and I have never seen them before, so it is not true that I cannot jump to conclusions."

, and things may not be without a turnaround, just now I received news that Master Yai seems to be interested in meeting your master. "

"Master Eight, Lord Eight? M Chun also looked shocked, "But the Master Eight that I understand? "

"The Great Priestess of Narugami Taisha... Lord Yato? That's great! Master will be fine now."

Nanako clenched her fists in joy, as if as long as the great witch came forward, there would be nothing that could not be solved.

"That's right, Lord Eight Great Masters has personally exorcised countless calamities and evil spirits. Whether your master is possessed by evil spirits or not, I can't be sure, but Master Eight Great Masters will definitely give you the most accurate answer."

"well!"

Junya hurriedly asked: "Master Miko, what preparations do we need to make when we meet Yato-sama?"

"No need. The only requirement is to arrive at Narugami Shrine on time. Lord Yai, I don't like pointless waiting." Yu.

Chapter 32 The Lover

"By the way, and...bring these three people along."

The witch looked at Zhongli, Ying, and Paimon who were listening to the conversation with a strange expression. She probably added the condition suddenly because someone came over via voice transmission.

The witch was puzzled.

It's strange...why Lord Yae suddenly decided to summon these three strangers...and he also said that he would bring a few bottles of sweet-scented osmanthus wine, two baskets of sea ganoderma, and a few light novels to Yaedo before going up the mountain...Light novels are easy to bring , Hai Lingzhi is also easy to pick, but sweet-scented osmanthus wine...it's a bit hard to find in the city, it's a specialty of Liyue.

What on earth is Yayo-sama thinking...

"Since it is the order of Lord Eight, the subordinates should obey it."

"I'm leaving first, and I'll see you at Narugami Shrine later. I wish Mr. Tumen a speedy return to normal."

"Miko-sama, go all the way.

"Six Nine Zero" Zhongli, Ying and Paimeng are waiting by the side

Watching the maiden leave in the direction of the shadow to the mountain, in the field in front of the kendo hall

You can see the majestic mountains in the distance reflected in the starlight.

The strange peak is covered with cherry trees bathed in lightning, the sound of foxes seems to be heard, and the corner of the torii gate can be vaguely seen, and the top is shrouded in a misty mist.

Presumably that is the place where the eight major priestesses of Narugami Taisha Shrine are located.
