Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat
Chapter 254: Seven Days on Haizhi Island
After burning all the supplies, Shao Yun rode his horse back to Wanglong Village along the same route. On the way, he threw the box containing the evil eye into the sea.
When he arrived at the house that Zheping had prepared for them, it suddenly started to rain heavily.
Shao Yun hurriedly dismounted, put the horse into the system stable, and then quickly ran under the eaves to avoid the rain.
He looked at the heavy rain pouring down outside and couldn't help but sigh: "One of the great blessings in life is that it rains just when you get home; one of the great misfortunes in life is that it rains just when you go out."
After Shao Yun finished muttering, he sat down on the ground, leaning against the wall of the house, and whispered, "It seems that I can only stay here for the night. I will think about how to calm Ying down tomorrow."
As he spoke, he yawned, covered his face with his hat, and prepared to rest.
Suddenly there was a loud noise and the door was slammed open.
Shao Yun was startled and quickly put on his hat. He looked up and saw Ying, an expressionless woman, looking at him quietly. The two of them looked into each other's eyes.
Ying looked at Shao Yun who was sitting by the door, then looked at the heavy rain outside, pursed her lips slightly, and said in a somewhat arrogant tone: "Let's go back to the house."
When Shao Yun heard this, he was overjoyed and quickly stood up and said excitedly: "Thank you Ying!"
It seems that Ying still feels sorry for herself!
She gave Shao Yun a white look, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if with a barely perceptible smile.
She waved gently, indicating Shao Yun to go into the house and rest.
Shao Yun happily followed Ying into the house, closed the door, and followed Ying's steps closely.
"I knew Ying that you wouldn't let me spend the night outside! You are so nice to me." Shao Yun said with a smile behind Ying, with happiness sparkling in his eyes.
As soon as he finished speaking and Ying stopped, Shao Yun's heart skipped a beat, thinking that Ying was angry again, so he quickly shut his mouth and dared not say another word.
Ying turned to look at Shao Yun, with a slightly dissatisfied look in her eyes, and said with a hint of displeasure: "Next time when you feed me medicine, can you not be so rough!"
When Shao Yun heard this, he was delighted, knowing that Ying had completely calmed down and was just looking for a way out.
He nodded repeatedly to express his apology and assured her, "Don't worry, I will be very gentle when I pour the medicine into your mouth next time."
However, after hearing these words, Ying's expression became helpless.
Then she sighed, shook her head gently, and said helplessly: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to be angry with you anymore. Paimon has fallen asleep, so let's go to bed early."
After saying that, Ying led Shao Yun to the living room, where they both lay on their respective mattresses, resting their heads on soft pillows, ready to rest.
At this moment, Shao Yun suddenly remembered what happened during the day, and he hurriedly pushed Ying beside him.
"Ying, I got a brand new gun. When you recover in a few days, I can teach you how to use it. Now you only have a revolver in your hand, and the firepower is not enough!"
Hearing this, Ying gently turned over, looked at Shao Yun, and replied in a lazy tone: "Okay, let's talk about it when I'm better."
……
Over the next week, a lot of changes happened on Haizhi Island.
On the first day, it rained heavily, and the rain lasted all day. The residents of Haizhi Island complained about the inconvenience caused by the heavy rain, but it did not attract much attention.
After all, heavy rains were not uncommon on Haizhi Island. However, they did not know that this heavy rain was just the beginning of a greater disaster.
On this day, Shao Yun showed Ying a hunting rifle in the house.
……
The next day, the heavy rain stopped, but the situation on Haizhi Island became even worse. All plants with stems drooped to varying degrees. Many people believed that this was due to the heavy rain last night, which was too severe and caused damage to the plants.
They consoled themselves by saying that the plants would revive if they were exposed to some sunlight.
But in fact, the vitality of these plants has been seriously affected.
It is worth mentioning that on this day, Ying, who had been drinking tonic medicine for two days, basically recovered her health.
Therefore, Shao Yun decided to take her to practice using a hunting rifle.
The training method changed from hitting bottles to hitting floating spirits.
Ying learned quickly and was able to use it proficiently in just one day.
……
On the third day, the leaves of some bushes began to wither. Although these withered bushes appeared far away from the village, a few people still noticed their changes.
However, most people do not take this phenomenon seriously. They continue to live their normal lives, unaware that the crisis is quietly approaching.
On this day, Coral Palace Xinhai discussed the next round of smuggling activities with Uncle Hong.
In the evening, according to Xinhai's plan, Uncle Hong sent thirty small boats, divided into ten groups, to the outlying islands and Mingshen Island to smuggle goods.
……
On the fourth day, just one night later, the trees on the entire Haizhi Island seemed to have lost their vitality, and the leaves of many trees began to wither. This abnormal phenomenon soon attracted the attention of many residents, and all kinds of speculation and worries filled the entire island.
The news spread like wildfire and eventually reached the Coral Palace.
Faced with this sudden change, Xinhai of the Coral Palace did not dare to take it lightly and immediately sent witches to various places on Haizhi Island to investigate the situation. After careful observation and research, they came to an astonishing conclusion that the land of Haizhi Island was gradually becoming sacred!
Coral Palace Xinhai began to arrange the activities of the Haizhi Imperial Spirit Festival.
……
On the fifth day, the villagers of Wanglong Village were horrified to find that the radish leaves in the radish fields that they had worked so hard to grow had turned dark brown overnight, and the radishes that were once full of vitality had now completely withered.
The villagers took immediate action and pulled out all the white radishes that were about to mature, but when they saw these radishes, their hopes were instantly shattered.
Half of the radishes in the field were not even as big as a child's fist, and the other half had completely rotted.
This news reached the ears of Xinhai of the Coral Palace, who was preparing for the Sea Imperial Spirit Sacrifice.
Coral Palace Xinhai was so shocked that she almost fainted. She had thought that the sanctification phenomenon of Haizhi Island would be so serious.
However, at this time, she still did not realize that the Abyss Cult was secretly fanning the flames of all this.
……
On the morning of the sixth day, plants on Haizhi Island began to wither on a large scale at an alarming rate.
This scene caused the entire island to fall into great panic.
Fortunately, however, Coral Palace Xinhai released the news in time, explaining that this was a phenomenon of the sanctification of Kaiji Island, and stated that the Kaiji Imperial Spirit Festival would be held soon to fight against the sanctification, which barely stabilized the people's hearts.
But by the afternoon, Kaijima declared a state of emergency.
At this time, the food reserves of the rebel camp on Bayun Island have run out and can only last for two days.
In other words, the military camp will face the dilemma of food shortage the day after tomorrow.
At the same time, a buying spree swept through Wanglong Village, and the "limited" stock of merchant Miss Kiyoko was quickly sold out.
Because Shao Yun intercepted the Fatui's supplies in the original plot, and due to the sudden occurrence of the sanctification phenomenon, Haizhi Island fell into a serious crisis in just six days.
Everything is developing according to Shao Yun and Yuan Shang's plan.
……
On the seventh day, early in the morning, the sunlight shone into the room through the window. Shao Yun got up early and began to prepare breakfast.
He skillfully took out the ingredients he had bought from Mond's Department Store and carefully cooked three bowls of thick vegetable stew in the ordinary beast meat version.
After a while, the fragrant stew was brought to the table.
Ying and Paimon sat at the table, holding spoons in their hands, but staring listlessly at the stew in the bowl, without any appetite at all.
Seeing this, Shao Yun asked curiously, "What's wrong? You two look so sad so early in the morning. Is it because I snored too loudly last night and affected your rest?"
Paimon gave a helpless smile and replied, "Oh, that's not the case. It's just that there has been a serious phenomenon of sanctification on Haizhi Island recently. Many places have become bare, which makes people feel uncomfortable when seeing it."
Ying also frowned and agreed: "Yeah, it's really sad to see those once vibrant lands become like this."
Shao Yun looked at the two "bitter faces" and comforted them softly: "You two frowning won't solve the problem. Eat when you need to, drink when you need to..."
Then, Shao Yun changed the subject and asked about the use of weapons.
"By the way, Ying, are you used to using the gun I gave you before? How does it feel?"
Ying took a sip of soup, frowned, and said thoughtfully: "It's going pretty well, but we're going to kill all the floating spirits on Haizhi Island."
She put down the bowl and spoon and rubbed her forehead.
After hearing this, Shao Yun smiled and nodded, comforting her: "Maybe Miss Xinhai will praise us. After all, floating spirits are as annoying as cockroaches and rats on Haizhi Island."
"We have eliminated so many floating spirits. This should be considered one of the few good news on Haizhi Island recently."
Ying sighed and shook her head helplessly, full of worries about the future. She always felt that everything was strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange.
"I hope so, but I'm still a little worried..."
Shao Yun couldn't help but laugh when he saw Ying's sad face. He tried to lighten the mood and said, "Don't worry too much. Isn't Xinhai planning to hold a Sea Spiritual Festival? Everything will be fine then."
Shao Yun thought, when you go to Yuanxia Palace for adventure, he will be free to lead Haizhidao to attack Mingshen Island and chop off the head of the Thunder God.
Anyway, you are in Yuanxia Palace, and Yuanshang is watching you. Plus, you can use the teleportation anchor, so it shouldn't be a big problem.
While they were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door. Zheping shouted anxiously: "Shao Yun! Ying! Paimeng! Master Coral Palace asks you three to go to Coral Palace immediately. It's urgent!"
When Shao Yun heard Zheping's voice, the corners of his mouth slightly raised and he was secretly happy.
He knew that Haizhi Island could no longer hold on and it was time to "burn their boats".
