Genshin Impact: A Martial Arts Master's Journey to Teyvat
Chapter 31: The Legend of Guiliyuan
Lingkong went downstairs to the second floor. Everything was done, so he decided to go have dinner.
The two of them found a square table and sat down.
Pai Meng: "Why are you so respectful to him? He looks the same age as you."
Lingkong: "He is an immortal who has lived for who knows how many years. How could he be as old as me? You can't judge a person by his appearance."
Pai Meng: "So what if you live longer? Living longer doesn't necessarily mean you are great."
Lingkong: "Of course you can act naughty in front of him, he won't blame you because you are a child. If I dare to act presumptuously, he will definitely punish me."
He didn't want to experience the feeling of powerlessness in the face of justice again.
Moreover, Ling Kong has seen too many time travelers who think they are so awesome that they don't respect their predecessors and look down on others. Without exception, these people died miserably.
When a time traveler dies, he is truly dead, without even the chance of reincarnation.
This is what happens when you have no reverence.
Waiter: "Sir, what would you like to order?"
Lingkong: "Two signature dishes, a pot of wine, and two bowls of rice, that's it for now."
The waiter: "Okay, please wait a moment."
Pai Meng: "Lingkong, are we going to Jueyunjian or not?"
Lingkong: "Of course not. Didn't the Great Sage who conquered demons say that he would go and inform the immortals? We can talk about seeking immortals and asking for the Tao when we have the chance in the future."
Pai Meng: "Hey, I also want to see what the immortal looks like."
Lingkong: "What do immortals look like? Judging from the style of the painting of the Great Sage Conquering the Demons, they are all handsome men and beautiful women."
As the two were talking, a sturdy man ran out from the kitchen, ran to the counter and said, "Boss, it's bad, there's something strange happening in the kitchen."
The front desk lady said: "What nonsense are you talking about? How can there be something strange in the kitchen?"
The strong man patted his chest and said with a frightened face: "Really, I saw it with my own eyes, a little girl in blue clothes, oh my god, I was scared to death."
The lady boss said: "So what if there is a ghost? Can the ghost eat you? Go back and cook."
Strong man: "My hands are shaking, I can't even hold the knife, how can I cook?"
The boss lady said: "You are such a useless person. You don't cook and you let the customers wait."
Lingkong came over and said: "I have always been interested in demons and monsters. Can you let me see some of them?"
The sturdy man looked at the boy in front of him who was about the same age as his son: "You want to see Gui? That's a Gui, very scary."
Lingkong: "Maybe I can help you capture Gui."
The lady boss said: "Take him to see it. If you can collect the ghost, I will give you a free meal."
Lingkong: "I almost forgot, I have to stay here for another night."
The proprietress said: "Your accommodation fee is also waived."
Lingkong: "Deal."
The sturdy man brought Lingkong to the kitchen. It was pitch black inside, without even a light source.
Lingkong: "Why don't you light a candle?"
Strong man: "I don't dare to click."
Lingkong: "Paimeng, bring me a fire starter."
Pai Meng: "Lingkong, there really isn't a ghost."
Lingkong: "I can already feel the Yin energy."
He lit the tinder and went into the kitchen.
The strong man didn't dare to go in at the kitchen door.
Pai Meng suppressed her fear and followed in. People are like this sometimes. The more scared they are, the more they want to watch.
The sky was bright with light, and a little girl in blue floated past him.
It was obvious that she was not human.
Paimeng: “#&@*$…”
Lingkong hurried to catch up and found the little girl with her back to them in the corner of the kitchen.
Lingkong: "Little friend, brother will send you to reincarnation, okay?"
The girl slowly turned her head and turned her face to the back. On her snow-white face, a pair of pupilless eyes were staring at Lingkong.
Bloody tears flowed from his eyes, dripping onto the ground drop by drop.
Pai Meng covered her mouth with a look of fear, but she didn't even blink.
Lingkong recited the mantra for rebirth regardless of whether she agreed or not.
The golden Buddha's light gradually evaporated the blood and tears on her face, and the little girl became pretty again.
She bowed to Lingkong and disappeared.
Pai Meng: "Where did she go?"
Lingkong: "Of course, he entered the cycle of reincarnation and was reborn."
Lingkong came out of the kitchen and saw the chef and said, "It's done. Go cook now. I haven't eaten yet."
Chef: "What happened to that ghost? Did he lose his soul?"
Lingkong: "I sent her into reincarnation. She will never appear again."
Chef: "I hope she's gone. It scares me."
Pai Meng: "You are such an old man, but you are not as brave as me."
After solving the haunted problem, the two waited for the chef to prepare dinner for them.
While we were eating, an old storyteller came to the inn.
The storyteller said: "Today, I will tell you the history of Guiliyuan. This history is unknown to many locals, not to mention tourists from other places.
It is said that as early as six thousand years ago, our King of Rocks led his people to live in the south of Tianheng Mountain, while to the north of Tianheng Mountain were the Demon God of Dust Guizhong and her people.
The two demon gods knew each other since then. Later, as their people grew in number, they signed a covenant on the grassland where colored lilies bloomed, and gathered with their people to the north of Tianheng. This place was Guiliyuan.
Many years later, Gui Zhong told the Emperor that since the people were living and working in peace and contentment, and could return home, it would be better to name this area Guiliyuan. This is the origin of the name Guiliyuan.
What he wanted to talk about was this period of history. This was the simplified version that Ling Kong came up with after looking up information.
The best thing storytellers do is to tell a short story in a long way; they can talk about a trivial matter for three days and three nights.
He talked for a long time, but Emperor Yanwang was still farming in Tianheng Mountain.
Someone said: "Old man, please tell us what happened to Guiliyuan later. Why is Guiliyuan now in ruins?"
The old man said: "Later, a war between demons and gods broke out in Guiliyuan. Many immortals who followed the emperor died in this battle, and the god of dust Guizhong also died in this war.
Later, the Emperor and the immortals worked together to build Liyue, which led to the peaceful and prosperous times we see today."
Everyone was talking about it:
"No wonder no one lives in Guiliyuan."
"But it is said that Guiliyuan has many hidden treasures."
"I've passed by Guiliyuan so many times, but I've never seen any secret treasures."
"I already said it's a secret treasure. How can it still be called a secret treasure if you can see it?"
"Old man, is there any treasure in Guiliyuan?"
"Even if there are treasures, they have been picked up by others. How can it be your turn?"
The old man said: "Guiliyuan is a place where many demons and immortals were buried. If you can find a little bit of them, you will never have to worry about food and clothing in this life."
The crowd talked more.
Pai Meng: "Lingkong, let's go treasure hunting."
Lingkong: "You believe everything you hear? Treasure hunting is not that easy, but you can try your luck. You can experience the great battle between immortals and demons from the ruins."
The battle back then must have been devastating. Ling Kong believed that a weakling like him would be just cannon fodder in the war between demons and gods.
