Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Guide

Chapter 20 Checkmate and Praying to God



Strange black smoke came out of the hearth of the furnace, which was filled with tartar sand.

This was not an issue that Chinatsu should be concerned about. She knew nothing about it, but by chance, someone came to her house and asked to see her.

Chinatsu opened the door and saw an old woman standing at the door. She was leaning on a cane, her eyes were filled with tears, and she could hardly stand still.

After inviting her into the house, the old woman said: "Miss Chinatsu, no, miko-sama, my body cannot cross the sea. Can you help me... go to pray for my child under the sacred cherry tree?"

Chinatsu was stunned: "What's wrong?"

The old woman said shakily.

She has only one son.

The son was very successful and became a famous craftsman in the village. Because of the technology brought by Escher, my son lived up to his expectations and was selected to be the first batch of craftsmen to come into contact with the furnace core and new technology.

But the good times are not long.

"Ever since he inhaled that strange black smoke, he just felt uncomfortable at first. Mr. Escher also said that there was nothing wrong...but...but..."

"But what happened?"

The old woman shed tears: "But... it's hard for him to wake up now."

"The doctor in the village can't cure him. I...I really have nothing to do...Please, Miko-sama."

Her eyes were filled with vague hope, as if she saw a false moon in the water.

He knows it is false, but like a desperate person who has been voluntarily confused by the hazy mist, he desperately wants to hold on to it even if it is an illusion.

Chinatsu couldn't refuse this look.

So she said firmly: "Okay, I will pray for your son tomorrow, for sure."

"Before that..."

"Can you take me to see your son?"

After passing through the noisy environment, the miko-sama, who looked different from ordinary people, followed the old woman's footsteps and walked to a secluded courtyard.

Pushing open the door of the courtyard, an originally living life was lying on the cold bamboo mat. His face was pale, and only his chest was still rising slightly.

Chinatsu's heart sank.

She knew this person.

He also helped her when she first came to Tatarsha.

Indeed, as the old woman said, his breath was extremely weak.

The Vampires are particularly sensitive to judgments of breath and time. Because they have seen a lot, Qianxia can tell at a glance that if he can't wake up, he will definitely die if he can't make it through tonight.

"Miko-sama...he will definitely wake up, right?"

Qianxia was silent for a moment and only said: "I will pray for him."

The vampire who did not believe in gods thought for the first time - if the gods of this world would really listen to the wishes of believers, then she hoped that a miracle would happen.

but……

The thunder and lightning over the densely packed sky was huge, with a cold majesty that could not be rejected, and it had been ringing in this country for a long time.

Thor - is he really a gentle god?

But she did not say these thoughts to the old woman.

The next day, because she wanted to pray for blessings, Qianxia chose to go out in the early morning before the sun came out for the first time.

As soon as I opened the door, I found that the old woman I just met yesterday was outside the door.

She was stunned.

But the other party said: "I'll see you off."

Qianxia waved her hands and said: "No need to trouble you so much, you should rest at home."

The old woman said: "It's okay. A Teng hasn't woken up yet, but I still hope to do something."

——Not yet awake.

This is not a good thing.

If the gods didn't respond, he would literally die.

Qianxia's heart suddenly lifted.

She suddenly became anxious: "No, I'm going to be on duty at Yingxiang Mountain. You go back first."

The old woman was surprised: "It's not daylight yet."

The little vampire smiled reluctantly: "It's okay, I'm on duty at night and I'm used to it."

Frankly speaking, the journey from Tatarsha to Inazuma Castle is very long.

The first time she took a boat to sell crystal cores, it took her several days to go back and forth.

But later, Yae Shenzi knew that she had a long journey and gave her a special token.

"As long as you use the thunder seeds to activate the token, a monster will come to help you cross the sea~" The pink-furred fox said in a frivolous tone, "As long as you give him three hundred molas each time, you can eat two plates of fried tofu while I finish it. Isn’t it very convenient to go from Tatarsha to the port of Daozuma Castle in the same time?”

Very convenient indeed.

When the morning sun finally appeared, she hurried up the mountain.

Narukami Taisha Shrine is quiet.

Not caring so much, Chinatsu took a deep breath and danced a blessing dance under the sacred cherry tree according to the method taught by Yae Kamiko before.

The person she met by chance, whose name she didn't even know, was the first good person she chose to help her after she came to this world, besides Shiro, Niwa, and Katsuragi.

She still remembered that the man said: "We are still very friendly in Talisha, so you can rest assured and stay here."

In a blink of an eye, he was going to die.

Chinatsu doesn't like this.

On the horizon, the sun's rays have gradually become brighter and brighter.

Chinatsu didn't stop.

——She is praying to the gods to lower their eyes.
