Genshin Impact: Journey to Teyvat

Chapter 472 Looking for someone who doesn’t exist

Lao Meng was also a little helpless: "We have also searched near Wuwangpo, and we have also searched for our former friends. Now the clues are completely lost..."

It was a conversation between several people. Suddenly he was interrupted by a voice from behind: "Sorry, sorry, are you from the Hall of Rebirth?"

The five people turned their heads and looked neatly at the person behind them. He seemed a little embarrassed: "My name is Luo Cheng. I feel something is wrong recently. I always feel like something is staring at me."

"Staring at you?" Paimeng tilted his head and looked a little confused. Luo Cheng nodded: "I went to Wuwangpo with my friends to test my courage a few days ago. After I came back, I fell ill. I had nightmares every day. I asked a doctor for diagnosis. I can’t see anything wrong with it…”

Speaking of this, Luo Cheng, who was still calm at first, covered his forehead: "I must be cursed if I look like this, right! Cursed by the devil!"

"Yes, yes, yes, the devil's curse is serious." This time it was Hutao's turn to blink her half-moon eyes and fold her arms as she looked at the shocked young man in front of her. She had already given up on explaining.

Luo Cheng didn't seem to notice Hu Tao's extremely perfunctory attitude at all. He stepped forward nervously: "You know that, right! It's the one who, in the legend, died in the Demon War, and cast a painful curse on the world."

Hu Tao turned her head silently, not wanting to see Luo Cheng looking so stupid.

"As long as this curse cannot be expelled, it will eventually burn through the internal organs and separate the flesh and blood. The end will be very miserable!"

The more Luo Cheng talked, the more excited he became: "The symptoms of being cursed in the legend are exactly the same as mine now!"

Gan Lin suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth. Watching Hu Tao's "yes, yes, yes" live was really cuter than in the game.

No way, Hu Tao is such a cute girl.

Hearing this suspicious statement, Lao Meng also became worried. It was obvious that he was not worried about Luo Cheng who came to ask for help.

"Wuwangpo, curse...no, it's probably not a curse, it's probably because of Brother Lang..."

Hu Tao was already speechless. When she heard Lao Meng's words becoming more and more outrageous, she quickly stopped her: "Hey, stop, stop! You two, stop talking to yourself."

Paimon, who was enjoying the show while watching the show, was interrupted and complained silently: "You are the one who likes to talk to yourself the most!"

Luo Chengcheng grasped the last hope: "Sangshengtang is good at solving this kind of ghosts and demons! Can you help me! I don't want to die yet!"

Now Gan Lin couldn't help it anymore and burst out laughing, then coughed and suppressed it again in the face of Luo Cheng's angry eyes.

This move is called ‘Help me, Hall Master Hu! ’

Hutao replied decisively: "Okay, no problem, leave it to me. I'm the right person." After saying this, she crossed her arms.

"But to lift the curse, we need a suitable venue and some preparations in advance." Hutao put down her arms and looked around. Lao Meng was still in a daze, so she directly focused on the people watching the show. On three people.

"New here, I need your help, come with me."

Lao Meng quickly said: "Then, I will go too!"

Hu Tao had long known that he would say this: "You should help him prepare first. I have taught you how to burn incense to ward off evil spirits."

Lao Meng nodded, and Hutao said the location: "After you finish the preparations, come find me there. When this end is finished, we can continue to discuss Brother Lang's affairs."

Lao Meng nodded: "Okay, that's all."

Hu Taoyan smiled and turned around: "Let's go." Behind the four of them, Lao Meng was still comforting Luo Cheng, who seemed to be frightened.

Hutao didn't seem to be affected by the two people just now, humming a weird nursery rhyme and jumping up and down to lead the way.

Even Paimon's question was blocked by her with a wicked smile.

The four people who came to the designated place looked around. This place was behind Liyue Port. There seemed to be a ground vein stone behind them. Hu Tao walked over with a clear purpose.

"So, mysteriously, what are you going to do?"

Paimon was very curious, while Hutao blinked his innocent and beautiful eyes: "Don't do anything, just wait here."

This answer left Paimon confused: "Eh?!"

Seeing her reaction, Hu Tao's eyes widened: "You don't take the rumor of a demon curse seriously, do you? That kind of thing has been extinguished long ago!"

Ying was even more helpless: "So, why do we come here?"

Hu Tao frowned in frustration: "You have also seen that those two people, one feels that he has been cursed, and the other feels that his best friend has turned into an evil ghost, and they don't listen well to what others say."

"So I say it's best for ordinary people to know nothing." Hu Tao sighed and shook her head in an old-fashioned way, which was completely different from her quirky look just now.

Hu Tao looked at the three people in front of him who nodded repeatedly: "I have seen too many people who lose their temper due to this kind of thing. If you want to calm people down, you must let them see something convincing."

Hu Tao nodded: "When you face people who believe in ghosts, you should eliminate the ghosts in front of them."

Hearing this answer, Paimon shook his head helplessly: "Such words sound like a trick to coax a three-year-old child..."

"How old is Paimon this year?" A smile flashed in his eyes. Ganlin reached out and poked little Paimon: "Little Paimon didn't believe me?"

"Really, you two!" Pamon stomped his feet angrily: "Why do you ask this suddenly! Why can't I just tell you the truth directly? I'm more concerned about this than this."

Hu Tao turned around: "Because no one can guarantee that telling the truth to ignorant people will make the current situation better, not worse."

"I want to pull people who are close to the border back. Since it is a psychological effect, I will give the right medicine. Just treat it as a psychological effect."

Paimon thought thoughtfully: "That makes sense...then, what about the curse?"

Hutao held up his chin: "Is this...have you ever heard of the history of Yaksha?"

The three of them looked at each other and said, "Understand a little bit."

"They once fought against the devil, and the fight was dizzying and dark. Although the devil was defeated in the end, their resentment lingered for a long time."

Hu Tao paused for a moment when he said this. He put his hands on his hips and looked at Liyue Port in the distance: "Resentment turned into a plague and spread among ordinary people. The panicked people thought it was a curse cast by the devil."

"Many people were killed by the plague, and the plague continued to spread using the dead as a breeding ground."

Hutao seemed helpless, as if he was lamenting what had happened: "Later, someone discovered a way to prevent the spread of the plague: purify the air and burn the corpses. And the first batch of people who started to do this kind of thing were the Shengshengtang The original founder."
