Explorer of Teyvat

In the wilderness of Sumeru, in the rainforest,

Kuki Shinobu followed Arataki Ito's finger and looked,

Sure enough, a small hut was located in the tree.

The trees in Sumeru are indeed thick and big.

The tree house is hidden among the foliage.

"Hey, I saw it. There are no fallen leaves or dust on it, which means this tree house is inhabited by people. Let's go take a look. Maybe we can get someone to help give directions."

Arataki became silly and happy again after fighting.

Kuki Shinobu frowned slightly. She was not as optimistic as Ichito Arataki. Living alone in the wild, in a tree house, always carried a hint of danger.

"Boss, be careful of danger." Jiu Qiren warned.

Arataki Yidou didn't care. On the one hand, he was careless to begin with, and on the other hand, he was also confident in his own strength.

Ever since he went to Liyue to ask for medicine and was diagnosed as malnourished, Huang Long Yidou has been eating every meal until now.

As for food money, it's fine. In addition to being a part-time lumberjack, he also works as a miner and occasionally as an adventurer.

Anyway, while Arataki Yidou was replenishing his nutrition, the Arataki sect began to get on the right track.

If it weren't for them still working every now and then, Kujo Sora, who maintains the security of Inazuma Castle, would have thought that the Arataki sect had changed its ways.

I moved around under the tree for a while.

Arataki jumped hard, jumped up to the waist of the tree, and then started to climb towards the tree house above his head.

…

Inside the treehouse,

The figure surrounded by cyan light moved his brows,

His strong sense of perception allowed him to feel the movements of outsiders even in his sleep.

The eyes opened instantly,

A trace of killing intent was released,

Without any hesitation, a wind blade cut through the air and flew towards the small door of the tree house.

Outside the door, Arataki stood on end, without any hesitation. The thick rock elements gathered in front of him, forming a large ghost-faced shield.

The next moment, the shrill wind blade broke through the wooden door and struck Arataki Yidou's large ghost-faced shield.

The sharp wind blade was like a hot knife cutting through hot butter, breaking through the ghost-faced shield extremely smoothly.

However, this time was enough for Arataki Yidou to react. He turned his body slightly to one side, and the sharp wind blade passed in front of him.

Before Arataki Yidou could say anything,

A blue-white figure walked out of the wooden house, holding a wind element ball like a black hole in his hand: "Who are you? Who sent you here?"

A look of anger appeared on Arataki Ichito's face: "What, you guy, I just wanted to ask for directions. Did you just want to kill me?"

Listening to Arataki Yidou's unreal roar,

Ah Mao frowned slightly,

Someone wasn't trying to harm him, was it an accident?

At this time, Kuki Nin also climbed up,

After seeing the appearance of this place, I immediately understood that there was a conflict between the boss and the owner of this place.

He hurriedly walked to Arataki Yidou and looked at Hatao: "I'm sorry, my boss is a little reckless. Please forgive me if I disturb you."

Hearing Kuki-nin's apology, Arataki Ichito was a little unconvinced. It was obvious that the other party attacked him first.

However, in the warning eyes of Kuki-nin, Arataki snorted angrily, but did not refute.

After sizing up the two people in front of me for a while,

The black hole-like ball of terrifying elements in Ah Mao's hand gradually dispersed,

"Are you... a Dao wife?"

At this moment, he also noticed that although the outfits worn by Arataki Ichito and Kuuki Shinobu were a bit unconventional, they also had an obvious Inazuma style.

Ah Mao still had a different attitude toward Mrs. Rice.

Seeing Ah Mao dissipating the elemental power, Kuki Shinobu breathed a sigh of relief.

She was not sure whether she and the boss could win against the elemental power the other party held just now.

"Yes, we came from Inazuma and wanted to go to Sumeru City to participate in the Celebration of the Order, but we got lost and didn't bring a map. We happened to see a wooden house here, so we came up to ask for directions."

Ah Mao was still looking at the two of them, especially Arataki Ito's horns, which attracted Ah Mao's attention and took another look.

"A ghost clan... a ghost king, and a rice wife with the Eye of God, ha." As if sneering, Ah Mao waved his hand, "Come in first."

Then he turned and walked into the cabin.

outside the door,

Kuki Shinobi and Arataki Ito looked at each other.

Kuki Shinobu wants to leave here as soon as possible.

But Arataki Yidou was a little unconvinced.

After making eye contact for a while, Kuki Shinobu was defeated.

The two entered the house.

"I thought you would run away."

"Hmph, I won't run away," Arataki said in response.

I thought Ah Mao would continue to taunt him, but to his surprise, this strange guy actually nodded: "Well, I still believe in the courage of a ghost king."

Then take out some simple fruits,

"You two, there's nothing to entertain you, just some fruits."

Arataki Yidou was a little hesitant. He wanted to kill someone just now, but now he is entertaining?

On the other hand, Jiu Qinren picked up a dundun peach and took a bite: "Can you give us some directions?"

"Don't worry, I'm going to Xumi in a while, you can go with me." A Mao forced a smile, "You are from Daozu, you can tell me how Daozu is doing now. ?"

Kuki Shinobu was a little confused: "You are also an Inazuma wife?"

Rice wife? Ah Mao asked himself, and finally shook his head slightly: "It's just a bit related, but I'm probably not the rice wife."

"Well, I don't know what you want to ask. Inazuma has been developing very well recently." Kuki Shinobu replied.

Ah Mao hesitated for a moment, then asked: "How is the Thunder and Lightning Five Now?"

Back in Jingshan Palace, he acted as if he didn't care about the Five Legends of Thunder and Lightning.

But that's just arrogance in front of acquaintances.

Now that he met two rice wives, he wanted to know more about them.

He will atone for those sins.

Although Kuki-nin didn't know why A-mao asked this, he still told A-mao about the situation of the Thunder Five. However, Kuki-nin himself didn't know much.

I only know that now only the Tianmu family has inherited it, and the Fengyuan family also has descendants.

After listening to Kuki Shinobu’s story,

Ah Mao nodded slightly, probably understanding the current situation.

Sure enough, the final redemption in the previous life did not change much, it just covered the new history.

"When Sumeru's sins are atone, let's go and see Inazuma. Although life cannot be resurrected, at least the Five Legends of Thunder and Lightning will be reappeared."

In Ah Mao's memory, there is the skill of five thunder and lightning transmissions.

Don't forget, the Enchanter was once one of the blacksmith's best friends.

The memories Ah Mao inherited were not only those of skirmishers, but also those of admirers.

We chatted with the two for a while, mostly about Inazuma's recent events. During the chat, Arataki Ichito gradually became less hostile towards Hatao.

After we finished chatting, we almost finished eating the fruit.

Ah Mao stood up and said, "You two, let's go to Xumi City together."

After thinking about it, Ah Mao said again: "When you get to Xumi City, don't say you know me."

Arataki was puzzled: "Why?"

Ah Mao smiled and said, "Because I am a sinner. Associating with sinners usually leads to misfortune."

Arataki was stunned: "Sinner?"

Ah Mao nodded: "Those long-standing, covered-up sins that cannot be ignored."

Arataki wanted to ask again, but Kuqinuo hurriedly tugged at the corner of his clothes.

This is obviously not a deep topic.

Ah Mao saw Kuki Shinobi's actions and smiled, but didn't take it seriously.

However, in his heart, he felt a little fond of this stupid big guy Arataki Yidou.

He could feel that this ghost clan was a pure person.

Without further talking, under the leadership of Ah Mao, the group walked towards Xumi City.

the other side,

Rested one night in the port of Ormos,

The people in the three countries’ missions have regained their spirits.

And Elhaysen also arranged the carriage,

Normally, Xumi uses beasts of burden, and carriages are only used when receiving envoys.

There are actually only a few envoys in the mission, but there are actually many people accompanying the mission, so there are many carriages arranged.

But Elhaysen did not allocate carriages, but let everyone choose.

This is a detail. Yesterday, Elhaysen saw Mondstadt and people from the Liyue Mission having fun together.

They were probably friends, so Elhaysen let everyone choose their own carriage.

Diona jumped on a carriage and waved to Xiang Ling who was in the Liyue delegation: "Xiang Ling, this way, come quickly."

"Oh, it's coming, it's coming." Xiang Ling said hello to her friends, and then walked towards Diona.

Xingqiu and others looked at each other and knew that Xiangling and Diona were good friends they hadn't seen for a long time, so they didn't have any objections.

After a while, everyone got on the carriage.

on the road,

In the Rice Wife Mission,

Kamisato Ayaka frowned slightly: "Have you not found those two people yet?"

The accompanying shogunate army showed a bitter smile: "Arataki Ito and Kuki Shinobi are both holders of the Eye of God. If they don't want us to find them, it will be difficult for us to find them."

"Don't worry about them. They were invited by the Order through the Adventurers Association. They will not meet the gods with us. It's okay if they are not here." Wulang said.

Kamisato Ayaka shook her head slightly: "I'm just worried that Arataki Ito's temper will cause trouble."

"Don't worry, Miss Ayaka. I've read the information. Ichito Arataki and Shinobu Kuki have been to Sumeru before. They are more familiar with this place than us."

Kamisato Ayaka shook her head slightly, still feeling a little uneasy.

She is a person who is good at taking charge of situations, but the existence of Arataki Ito represents an accident in itself.

the other side,

In Xiangling and Diona's carriage,

Two girls were playing and quarreling,

"Xiang Ling, when will you and Daoyi get married?" Diona suddenly said.

The action of playing with the kitten stalled, and Xiang Ling was a little confused, but she quickly reacted: "It hasn't been confirmed yet. Dad and Mr. Zhongli seem to be choosing a suitable day. I guess we have to wait until they are ready."

The union of Xiang Ling and Wang Daoyi has been confirmed.

But when the wedding will be held, Wang Daoyi and Xiang Ling have no say in this matter.

It's up to the elders of the two to decide.

Only Master Mao and Zhongli can select an auspicious day and then notify relatives and friends to confirm the date.

"That's it, I'm really looking forward to it." Diona is looking forward to Xiangling's wedding even more than Xiangling herself.

"Hehe." Xiangling hugged the kitty bartender, "Diona will come to have a wedding drink when the time comes."

Diona nodded vigorously: "Yeah, although I don't like wine, I will definitely drink Xiangling's wedding wine."

The friendship between Xiang Ling and Diona began when Xiang Ling and Wang Daoyi went to Mondstadt for the first time.

It can be said that Diona witnessed the beginning of Xiang Ling and Wang Daoyi.

So even if she really hates wine, Diona won't hate this wedding.

Time passes little by little,

Under the escort of a group of thirty people,

The carriage team gradually approached Xumi City.

at the same time,

Ah Mao brought his two rice wife friends to the front of the teaching court.

"I'm going to report, you can leave on your own."

Ah Mao's face lost the softness in the tree house and became colder.

Arataki Yidou was a little confused, but Kuki-nin realized that this hatou's identity in Sumeru may not be very good-looking.

After giving Arataki a fight, Kuqi Ren nodded to Hatao: "Okay, thank you for bringing us to Sumeru City. Then we'll say goodbye."

Ah Mao didn't pay attention to Kuki-nin's caution. He had long been accustomed to the feeling of distrust. Moreover, the other party was just wary, not an offense.

Nodding, Ah Mao walked into the teaching court.

"Ninja, we didn't even thank this brother Hatou properly." Arataki Yidou said with some dissatisfaction.

In his concept of life, if the other person took them out of the rainforest, they should at least treat him to a meal as a thank you.

It doesn't seem right to separate them directly like this.

Kuqi Ren looked at Arataki Yidou and shook his head slightly: "Boss, Mr. Hatano doesn't want us to continue to follow him."

"Ah?" Arataki was stunned.

"Let's go, boss, let's find a place to live first. Well, let's go to the Adventurers Association and ask."

…

Ecclesiastical Order,

Ah Mao walks among the crowd,

No one looked at him strangely,

However, a few scholars from the Cause Theory School nodded friendly towards Ah Mao.

Although the huge memory of Skirmishers has brought a lot of pain to Ah Mao,

But those hundreds of years of memory also brought knowledge,

In particular, the Onon School is concerned about various social changes and issues left over from history.

On these questions, Ah Mao can always give eye-catching answers.

How should I put it? Other scholars were investigating and researching, but Ah Mao himself was an experiencer of those things.

Ignoring the strange looks from the scholars of the Cause Theory School, Ah Mao walked towards the great sage's office.

Then he was stopped by the teaching commander: "Your Excellency Ah Mao, the acting great sage is not here at the moment."

"Huh? I'm really speechless. You sent a message asking me to come over, but you're not here. Are you kidding me?"

Ah Mao looked coldly at the instructor in front of him.

The instructor's expression remained unchanged: "The Acting Great Sage has gone to receive envoys from other countries. You can wait here for a while."

"Forget it." Ah Mao waved his hand, not intending to embarrass the instructor, and turned to leave.

Since the acting great sage is not here, let’s go find the Little Lucky Grass King.

Anyway, whatever happened, it was probably arranged by the two gods.

Watching Ah Mao leave, the instructor shook his head slightly: "I don't know what the background of this Lord Ah Mao is..."

The others did not know about Ah Mao's random visit to the great sage and even to the Jingshan Palace. They, the teaching commanders, had more or less heard about it.

Therefore, they are all curious about Ah Mao's true identity.

Of course, Ah Mao won't care.

At this moment, he has arrived at Jingshan Palace,

Then he looked at the two gods, his expressions a little ugly.

"Let me participate in the celebration of the Order? Did you make a mistake? I am a prisoner."

Nasida looked at him and smiled: "Except for us, no one treats you as a prisoner. Those scholars from the Cause Theory School even think that you are a scholar doing research incognito."

"Ha, that's ridiculous. I just saw them explaining the history of Rice Wife randomly, and I couldn't stand it." Ah Mao sneered.

"In any case, you can think of this as an opportunity to come to the front of the stage. You can't stay in the dark all the time." Nasida said.

Ah Mao disagreed: "What's wrong with staying in the dark? I'm fine now."

He is resisting.

"Oh, since you like the dark, why do you still want to get in touch with Arataki Ito and Kuki Ninja?" Wang Daoyi suddenly said.

Ah Mao said angrily: "You spy on me!"

Wang Daoyi shrugged: "Didn't you say that? You are a prisoner. What's wrong with me monitoring prisoners?"

Ah Mao:......

No one really wants to be just a mouse living in the darkness.

Especially people like Ah Mao, who inherited everything from the skirmishers,

Also longing for what skirmishers long for.

Family affection, friendship...or, in other words, a sense of identity.

He craves approval from others.

But this must be true recognition, not charity.

So after he recognized Arataki Yito and Kuqi Shinobu, he started to contact them in a friendly manner.

On the one hand, it is to obtain the latest information about Inazuma from Ichito Arataki and Shinobu Kuki.

On the other hand, it was also because these two people knew nothing about his past that a ghost king and a holder of the Eye of God were qualified to recognize him.

Regarding Ah Mao’s mentality,

Wang Dao just twitched the corner of his mouth and said secretly: "Screw you."

"...Huh, tell me, what do you need me to do?" Ah Mao softened.

"This Apostolic Academy celebration has invited many celebrities from all walks of life, as well as foreign missions. Safety issues are naturally the top priority. Therefore, Nasida and I hope that you will participate in the competition activities of the Apostolic Academy celebration in person, and Protect and care for others secretly.”

The celebration of the Holy Order is roughly divided into two parts.

One is the spontaneous celebrations, shop activities, festive performances and so on among the people. Wang Daoyi and Nasida do not need to take care of these. The private chambers of commerce, performance societies and the Ecclesiastical Council will negotiate and arrange.

The other is the official activities of the Holy Order.

There are probably mini-games conceived by various colleges.

And the all-important battle for the crown.

Compete for the crown of knowledge left by the great scholar and big businessman Saqin, and have a chance to be recognized by Saqin and inherit his property.

"Oh, what if I win?" Ah Mao said suddenly.

"Ha, as long as you complete your mission and ensure that there are no accidents during the event, on this basis, if you win, Nasida and I will also recognize your championship position."

Wang Daoyi doesn’t think Ah Mao will become the champion, but he won’t deny Ah Mao’s idea.

If the opponent becomes the champion, Wang Daoyi will not deny it.
