The Homeless Man of Teyvat

Inazuma, Narukami Taisha Shrine.

Ying stood under the sacred cherry tree, looking up at the falling pink cherry blossoms, her beautiful eyes exclaimed: "Just like what Tian Feng said, the Inazuma Sakura tree is really beautiful."

"Yes, one of Inazuma's most unmissable tourist attractions is Narukami Taisha Shrine and the sacred cherry tree."

Paimon nodded, and then he realized something: "No! When did he tell you? Why doesn't Paimon remember?"

Also, shouldn’t it be her duty to introduce tourist attractions?

Why could Chen Tianfeng steal her job in advance even when she wasn't by her side?

Ying thought for a while and said with a smile: "Of course it was when Paimon didn't know."

"That makes sense...what a ghost! Is there any difference between what you said and what you didn't say?"

The little mascot was very angry, thinking hard about what to introduce so that he could be worthy of the title of "the best guide in Teyvat". The thumb and index finger of her little hand were spread out and formed into an "eight" shape to support her small chin, making her small face more rounded.

Perhaps it is the blessing of the sacred cherry blossoms. Although Narukami Taisha Shrine is located on the top of the mountain, the wind passing through the Grand Shrine is very gentle. Pieces of cherry blossoms are falling and dancing in the wind, like light white butterflies. The butterflies gather together to form several clusters of hydrangeas under the trees and between the shrines. They are delicate and fragile, and can be blown away by the wind when people walk.

Paimon's eyes lit up. He shook Ying's shoulder with one hand and pointed at the crimson hydrangeas with the other. He lowered his voice subconsciously, as if he was afraid of scaring away the hydrangeas: "Ying, look, look, look!"

"Um?"

Ying looked in the direction of Paimon's finger and was about to say the name of Hydrangea when something suddenly occurred to her and she was naturally surprised and said: "It's so amazing. What is that?"

"Hey, it's Feiying Hydrangea!"

The little mascot first breathed a sigh of relief, and then said proudly: "It's the petals falling from the sacred cherry blossoms at Narukami Taisha Shrine. It is said that it carries the blessing of Inazuma, the earth, and it is a very good thing!"

Ying cooperated: "Then what can it be used for?"

"It can be used to make delicious food!" Pamon said without hesitation.

This is in line with Paimon's focus... Ying shook her head and smiled, raised her hand, and the lightning danced on her fingertips. The loose crimson hydrangeas gathered together and were captured by Ying lightly.

"Eh?"

Paimon blinked his eyes and looked at Ying who picked the crimson hydrangea easily, feeling that something was not right.

Damn it, I forgot that I still don’t know how to collect the Scarlet Sakura Hydrangea... Ying noticed Paimeng’s confused expression, her heart skipped a beat, her eyes turned, and she quickly changed the topic: "Paimon, look, the god of Narukami Taisha Shrine" The cherry tree looks a bit like a fox, isn’t it amazing?”

As expected, Paimon's attention was diverted, and he no longer thought about what was wrong. He turned to look at the sacred cherry tree: "It's true, it's so magical! But why is this?"

The sacred cherry tree is a miracle of the earth, protecting the entire Inawi, and it is very similar to a fox...could it be said that the fox is the most favored by the earth in Inawi?

Two people, one large and one small, stood under the sacred cherry tree and thought.

After Yae Kamiko finished handling the accumulated affairs in the shrine, she came out and saw the blond traveler and her little white pet standing in a daze under the tree. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Ah, it's the Son of God."

Paimon came back to his senses and explained: "We were wondering why the sacred cherry tree looks a bit like a fox."

"This is actually very simple."

Miss Fox crossed her arms with a smile on her lips: "I did it - the sacred cherry tree grows on my property, so of course it has to be pruned according to my taste."

So it’s not Inazuma Daichi who favors the fox the most, but the Yao Shenzi who favors the fox the most?

Paimeng looked at the Eightfold Divine Son, leaned into Ying's ear, and whispered: "Wow, this person is so domineering..."

"I can hear you, little Paimon."

Yae Shenzi glanced at her, pretending to be regretful and said: "Oh, what a pity. I originally wanted to treat you to Narukami Taisha's special dishes, but now it seems..."

Special cuisine!

Paimon caught the most important words and immediately clapped his chest to express his attitude: "Shenzi is right. Since the sacred cherry tree grows in Narukami Taisha Shrine, of course the appearance must be pruned according to Shenzi's taste! There is no problem at all!"

Yae Shenzi and Ying laughed together, and the latter reached out and rubbed Paimon's hair with gentle eyes.

With Paimon as his companion during the journey, the originally boring daily routine also gained color.

Ying took back her hand and looked at Yae Shenzi: "How is Ina-wife doing?"

As soon as he returned to Narukami Taisha Shrine, Yae Shenzi was stopped by a hurried miko, and he didn't know what happened.

"It was bad, so bad that I started to doubt whether I really made the right move."

Yae Kamiko sighed and was about to explain when the little miko trotted to his side and reported in a low voice: "Miyaji-sama, the eldest daughter of the Kamisato family, Kamisato Ayaka, is here to visit."

"The egret princess...heh, it was probably the little fox who asked her to come. She is quite perceptive. Invite her to the living room, we will be there soon."

"Yes, Lord Palace Secretary."

The little witch left in response.

Yae Shenzi looked at the little miko's leaving figure, turned to look at Ying and said with a smile: "Let's go, Ying, come with me to meet this Egret Princess. I can tell you about the current situation of Inazuma, and save the money." Go ahead and tell me twice.”

Ying nodded and followed Paimon behind Yae Shenzi, but she was inevitably a little curious.

The eldest lady of the Kamisato family, Princess Bailu... sounds like a big rice wife, but I don't know what she will look like.

Tianfeng did mention the shrine magistrate Kamisato family, saying that the family was run by a pair of siblings. The elder brother was in charge of external affairs and was good at political schemes; the younger sister was in charge of internal affairs and was impeccable in dealing with people, and was a qualified lady from a noble family.

But if he asked further, especially about his opinion of Kamisato Ayaka, Tianfeng would calmly say that he had no opinion, after all, he was not familiar with her and knew very little about her.

Ying smiled and shook her head, followed Yae Kamiko around three or two corners in the shrine, and entered the living room of the Narukami Grand Society.

A white-haired woman stood quietly in the living room. When she heard the noise, she turned around and looked back. Her silver-gray eyes had a perfect smile, making people feel neither distant nor too close.

"The shrine magistrate Kamisato Ayaka greets Lord Yae."

She smiled and bowed to Yae God, then stood up and looked at Ying and Paimon who came in with Yae God: "I wonder who these two are...?"

Such a beautiful and elegant girl, no wonder she is called the White Egret Princess... Ying looked at Kamisato Ayaka and smiled: "My name is Ying, I'm a traveler, and this is my travel companion Paimon, nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you!" Paimon waved his hand and repeated the last two words of Ying's words.

"They are my friends and guests of Inazuma."

Yae God made a brief introduction, raised his hand to signal everyone to take a seat, and sat down in the main seat. He waved his hand to let the other priestesses or waiters leave, then turned his eyes to Kamisato Ayaka, raised his chin slightly: "Ayato asked you to come, what did he say?"
