Inquirer of Teyvat

Chapter 527 Seduction
The transaction in Jingshan Palace is going on,

And in the sandy land of thousands of ravines,

Some people with ulterior motives did not stop their actions.

The huge team left the No. [-] new oasis in Iron Sand Dune,
In the yellow sand all over the sky, set off towards the reservoir oasis in the land of three canals,
Probably because I took a day off.

Ying's perception is much more sensitive than yesterday,

After setting off, I felt the occasional eyes watching me.

This sense of staring made her twist her body a little uncomfortable.

Subconsciously shrank his body.

And this defensive posture, in the sight of some people,

It became evidence that she was guarding something.

"The heart of God lies in the traveler."

In the team of scholars, an unremarkable scholar looked at Ying, with a flash of excitement in his eyes.

As a spy of fools lurking in the Holy Order, after receiving the activation order three days ago, he mixed into the investigation team of the Oasis Canal.

Originally, I thought that I would have to wait until the land of the Three Canals to find out the news about the Heart of God.
Unexpectedly, I met the traveler in the information on the way.

And looking at Traveler's vigilance in the team, the God's Heart must still be on her.

As soon as he thought that he had the opportunity to directly obtain the heart of God from the traveler and complete this task alone,
The humble Anzi scholar couldn't help but get excited.

However, after all, he is a person who can be a dark child, and he still has some psychological quality. In just a moment, he calmed down, and there was a trace of torment on his face, as if he was very unaccustomed to the desert environment.

At first glance, he is similar to the scholars around him.

These scholars who have never been to the desert, in this harsh environment, if it were not for the disciplinary officers and the 30-member group watching, they would probably be half as good.

"Master Sa Nuo." An instructor came to Sa Nuo, "The wind and sand are too strong, and the scholars are a little bit overwhelmed."

Instructors are the basic administrative unit of the Instructor Academy. In this operation, many instructors are in charge of communication among scholars, 30-member regiments, and disciplinary officials.

Looking at the wind and sand all over the sky, and then glanced back at the huge team,

Sai Nuo frowned slightly: "If we stop to rest, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to reach the destination within the agreed time."

"But the wind and sand are too strong. If this continues, there may be casualties." The instructor looked helpless. "Many of the scholars transferred this time have never been to the desert. Although the previous journey was hot, at least there were not many sandstorms. But now, since we came here, the sandstorms have not stopped."

As he said that, the instructor shook his head slightly: "Even we feel that it is a bit difficult. Those scholars who came to the desert for the first time can no longer hold on."

Beside Sino, Paimon suddenly said, "If it's a sandstorm, you can help them."

Ying didn't react for a while, and was stunned.

Sino looked at Ying curiously: "Can you eliminate the sandstorm?"

Now Ying reacted,

Nodded, wiped on the waist, a magic bottle flew out,
There are two golden leaves inside the magic bottle, and three pink leaves outside the magic bottle.

Lilupar's magic bottle.

Although Lilupal chose to atone for her sins, her power did not dissipate, but stayed in the magic bottle to accompany Ying to continue her journey.

And Lilupal's power is enough to suppress the sandstorm here.

"This is?" Senuo looked at the magic bottle floating out of Ying, with a feeling of deja vu in his eyes, "Magic bottle?"

"Huh? Did Sino actually know him?" Paimon asked in surprise.

Sai Nuo nodded: "My ancestors came out of the desert, and I have heard about the legends in the desert, but it's really surprising that you have a magic bottle."

In the legend of the desert, the king of red gold subdued Zhenling with a magic bottle.

When people find the magic bottle and release Zhenling, Zhenling will realize his wish.

Of course, I don't know how many versions of this legendary story have been adapted.

"If you want to suppress the sandstorm, you need the Spirit-Suppressing Branch." Ying observed the surroundings, and then continued, "There should be around here, Sano, let everyone stop and rest, I will go to the Spirit-Suppressing Shrine, and then continue to set off after I suppress the sandstorm."

The Zhenling Shrine is a shrine set up by the desert people for the Zhenling. The Water Lily Daughter was loved by farmers, shepherds, laborers, and boatmen. Therefore, around the oasis water system, there are often Zhenling Shrines.

The branch of Zhenling is the key to the Shrine of Zhenling. In the legendary era, as long as someone sincerely prays to the shrine of Zhenling, the branch of Zhenling will respond.

And now, although the town spirit shrine is no longer visited by people, it is enough to suppress the sandstorm in this area with the power of Lilupal.

Senuo nodded and warned: "Be careful."

Ying smiled, she knew what Senuo was telling.

"Don't worry, you still don't understand my strength."

Then he waved to Paimon: "Paimon, let's go. Last time we came here with Jade, I saw a town spirit shrine, it should be nearby."

"Oh, then let's go and come back quickly." Paimon nodded and followed Ying.

Watching Ying and Paimon leave,

Sai Nuo said to the instructor next to him: "Let's go down, set up camp and rest, and leave after the sandstorm is over. No one is allowed to leave the camp at will."

The instructor nodded: "Okay, Master Sano, I'll go right away."

Soon, the huge team stopped, and everyone began to set up camp. The 30-member group and the disciplinary officer began to erect barriers to isolate the wind and sand.

In the main account,

"Master Sano, the traveler will not be in danger, right?" a disciplinary officer said, with a little worry in his words.

Sai Nuo shook his head: "Don't worry, Ying's strength is not weak, nothing will happen."

On the surface, Ying is going to suppress the sandstorm,
But in fact, both Sano and his disciplinary officers knew that Ying had gone fishing.

God's heart is in the traveler,
The traveler went out alone to suppress the sandstorm,
Such a good opportunity, presumably those dark men are also ready to move.

Sai Nuo said he was fine, but there was still a trace of worry in his eyes.

In order not to startle the snake, he couldn't go out. Once the disciplinary officer went out, those people would definitely stay in the camp obediently, and the fishing would fail.

"I hope it will go well." Sai Nuo said silently in his heart, then looked up at his subordinates, "Has the gap you opened up been opened?"

"It was opened, and after the barrier was established, we replaced the guards with patrols on the grounds of lack of manpower. The patrols will have an interval of about 10 minutes. If they want to act, they will not miss this opportunity."

"I have observed that there is a gap of about 30 minutes between the patrols of the 10-member group. We can pass this gap time, leave the camp, find the traveler, and take the heart of God."

In a tent in a corner, five figures gathered together.

"Are the five of us the only ones who came here this time?" One of the little men asked, "Travelers are very powerful. There are only five of us, so we may not be able to succeed."

"I sent a message, and only the four of you responded. I don't know how many family members are here." On the main seat, the scholar with an ordinary face said, "Although there are not many people, we are in the dark and found the traveler. It can be said that we are the scholars sent by Sano to assist in the investigation of Zhenling. When she relaxes her vigilance and sneak attack, the success rate will be higher."

"Zhen Ling? Why didn't you say that we were sent by Sano to help her?" Someone asked in confusion.

"Stupid, if Sano sent someone to help the traveler, it should also be a group of 30 people or a disciplinary officer. How could he send a scholar?"

"According to the communication between our people and the Tanit tribe, the only ones who have the power to suppress sand violence in the desert, except for the god Chisha and the chief steward Sid, are Zhenling."

"Scholar, investigate Zhenling, this kind of excuse is more reasonable."

The people on the main seat explained a few words, they are all dark men, if they don't explain clearly, these people will not cooperate with him.

After explaining clearly,
Others then nodded: "Yes, I support it, such an excuse is reasonable."

"Okay, let's do it like this. I observed it just now. The patrol team will pass by here in 6 minutes. After the patrol team passes by, we have 10 minutes to act."

"Then get ready to act, for Her Majesty the Empress."

"For Her Majesty the Queen!"

Not far from the camp,

Ying and Paimon shuttled through the sandstorm,

With Lilupal's magic bottle around them, there was a blank area around them, and the power of the sandstorm could not affect them at all.

"Ying, do you think those bad guys will be fooled?" Paimon was a little worried.

Ying smiled, and then said: "Whether they are fooled or not, it will not affect our plan. Moreover, even if they are fooled, it is impossible to deceive all the bad guys."

"The game is still long, let's play slowly."

Thinking of Wang Daoyi's casualness when making plans, Ying felt a little funny.

According to Wang Daoyi: "Ying, please don't have any psychological burden. Whether the plan succeeds or fails, it doesn't matter. The most is that they stole the heart of a false god."

Fools spend a lot of time trying to steal the heart of a false god. According to the rules and regulations of Fools, these people may not only not get credit, but also be punished for being fooled.

Ying knew from the very beginning that in this game, after the fools believed in the existence of the Heart of God,
There is only a loss but not a win.

Therefore, Ying is not worried about whether the fools and dark sons will be fooled at all,

Because she's playing a game she can't lose.

Paimon nodded half-understanding: "Oh, so that's the case."

The two walked through the sandstorm, and gradually, an ancient building appeared in front of them.

Most of the damaged buildings have been covered by wind and sand.
However, Ying still smiled, and the magic bottle beside her shone slightly, indicating that this was her destination.

"Come on, Paimon, let's go over there to rest for a while, get some food, and wait for the fools."

Looking behind him, he looked at the traces he left intentionally. Although there was wind and sand blowing, they could still be vaguely distinguished.

Ying smiled, and took Paimeng to the area of ​​the Zhenling Shrine.

at the same time,

On the road of the traces left by Ying,

Five people still dressed as scholars followed the traces and chased them all the way.

"The traveler didn't care about the traces left behind, which means she didn't know about our existence, and our identity is still safe."

"Be careful in a while, don't show your feet, we are scholars who are here to investigate Zhenling, don't forget."

"Don't worry, I'm not a novice anymore, we won't make such a low-level mistake."

communicated in a low voice,

Five scholars have already seen the remains of the Zhenling Shrine not far away.

They stopped in their tracks, looked at each other, and then made an appearance of trekking hard, and began to approach.

In the town spirit shrine,
Ying didn't rush to suppress the sandstorm, but took out the pot and started cooking.
In the ruins, completely unaffected by the sandstorm, just in time for cooking.

Paimon rubbed his little hands beside Ying, as if looking forward to it.

Ying was handling the ingredients, then her ears moved slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth,

"Paimon, people are here, don't reveal your secrets."

On the side, Paimeng's eyes lit up: "It's finally here, hehehe, don't worry, we don't know what's wrong, we just suspect that there is something wrong with them."

"Well, that's right, that's it." Ying nodded in satisfaction.

As he said that, there were obvious footsteps outside,

Then came the shouting again.

"Traveler, traveler, are you there?"

Ying and Pimeng looked at each other, and Pimeng said, "Who is so, we are here."

After Paimon's voice came out, footsteps approached immediately.

Ying's face sank immediately, and she stopped drinking and said, "Paimon, how can you expose your position casually in the wild!"

A few figures leaned out from the gap in the ruins,
"Traveler, traveler, don't scold Your Excellency Paimon, it's us, we are sent by Master Sano to investigate Zhenling, we are not bad people."

With smiles on their faces, the scholars excused the gang and explained their purpose.

Ying frowned slightly, but still nodded: "Okay, I forgive you Paimon, next time you can't speak casually, this time it's your own people, what if it's an enemy?"

Paimon lowered his head and seemed a little sad: "Okay, I get it, don't be angry."

Her mouth twitched, as if she was about to cry.

Ying glanced at her angrily, knowing that if the performance continued, the little guy would burst out laughing.

Turning around to look at the scholars, he nodded friendly: "Since you are sent by Sino, let's come over and have dinner together. It just so happens that I do a little too much."

The scholars were stunned for a moment, and then they saw the pots and stoves in the open space of the ruins, and wisps of fragrance wafted from their noses.

Swallowing, the scholars looked at the leader,

The ordinary-faced scholar looked at the pot stove. They were really hungry when they came out.

After thinking about it, they want to sneak attack travelers, if they reject the other party's invitation, what if they get on guard because of this?
So, the leading scholar nodded and said gratefully to Ying: "I happen to be a little hungry, so we won't be polite."

With that said, the scholars approached the pot.

Ying also smiled: "You are welcome, we are all friends, eat more."

Paimon seemed to have recovered from the sadness of being scolded just now: "Yes, yes, thank you for speaking for me just now, eat more, eat more."

The scholars had no doubt about him, picked up the bowls and chopsticks that Ying handed over, and put food on it.

Looking at the eating patterns of the scholars, Ying knew that they were indeed a little hungry, so a happy smile appeared on Ying's face.

Swallowing the delicious food in his mouth, the leading scholar was a little surprised: "Traveler, why don't you eat it?"

Ying smiled: "Because there is medicine in it."

scholars:? ? ? ? ?
Before the horror on their faces showed, they felt their limbs lose their strength, and the bowls and chopsticks in their hands fell to the ground while shaking.

"Traveler, what do you mean?" The leader controlled the expression on his face and forcibly shouted at Ying.

He didn't know what was wrong with him, why Ying would drug them directly.

And, when was the medicine given?
You can't just make this pot of food just to drug them, right?

Ying showed a trace of sarcasm: "What do I mean? I want to ask, who are you?"

"We are the scholars sent by Master Sano to investigate Zhenling." The five people who fell on the ground shouted.

Ying glanced at them disdainfully: "You five scholars crossed the sandstorm to investigate Zhenling, but Sano didn't give you guards? Do you think I'm stupid or Sano stupid?"

After finishing speaking, ignoring the five people who were stunned, Ying walked to the side of the branch of the town spirit, and the magic bottle beside her turned, and the power belonging to Lilupar appeared again.

The authority of the Great Town Spirit is intertwined with the branches of the Town Spirit, and an inexplicable force sweeps across the area,
Outside the ruins, the whistling wind and sand began to quiet down.

Sandstorm, suppressed.

"Ying, what are they going to do?"

Ying frowned slightly: "Although I don't know who these people are, I can't leave them here."

With that said, he took out a signal flare and handed it to Paimon.

"This is the signal flare that Sano gave me. You take it out and let it go. Let's wait for Sano to send someone over."

"Okay, leave it to me." Paimon took the things, nodded, and then flew out of the ruins.

On the ground, the five Anzi, who were staggering to and fro, were almost unable to stretch their hearts.

They never thought that they would overturn because they had no guards.

Seeing Anzi's remorseful expressions, a smile flashed in Ying's eyes.

This kind of feeling of playing a bright card is really good, especially when the opponent has a bright card and one has a dark card, it is even more enjoyable.

After waiting for a long time in the ruins of the Zhenling Shrine,
The sound of dense footsteps came,

"Ying, Paimeng, I'm Sano, you can come out now."

Sano's stern voice came.

Ying nodded and looked at Paimon: "Go, tell Sano that we are here."

Paimon flew out immediately.

Ying also needs to guard the five guys on the ground.

After a while

Paimon came over with Sano, and behind him was a team of discipline officers and a 30-man regiment of mercenaries.

Glancing at the five ashes-like scholars on the ground,
Sai Nuo showed a cold smile: "I really didn't expect that there would be traitors in this operation. Come, take them back and interrogate if there are any accomplices."

Senuo also pretended that he didn't know about Anzi.

The discipline officials behind him also looked serious, picked up the five guys on the ground, and left the ruins.

After everyone leaves,
Only then did Sai Nuo look at Ying with a trace of seriousness.

"In the first trial, five bugs were caught. It seems that there are quite a few bugs this time."

Paimon scratched his head: "Are there still many that haven't been caught yet?"

"Generally speaking, before this kind of secret operation, they didn't know each other. They called five people this time, and it was also temporary. Then there must be people who didn't respond to the call."

"The most important thing to be a shadow is patience and one-hit kills. These five are the most impatient people." Sai Nuo knew these shadows very well, and his career was doomed that he often dealt with such people.

Ying nodded slightly: "Anyway, we already have five chips in our hands. The other party still doesn't know that we know about the hidden son, and will definitely continue to spread information. We just need to observe."

Hearing Ying's words, Sano also showed a smile: "That's right, we are the ones who take the initiative now."

"Gululu~" While speaking, a stomach growl sounded.

The two looked at Paimon,

Paimon scratched his head embarrassedly: "Hey, I'm hungry."
