Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Guide
Chapter 429: Don’t pick up men casually on the roadside, otherwise you will become unlucky
For the first time in his life, El felt family affection.
Xumi is a very special place. Thousands of years ago, the desert was too desolate, but the rainforest was well developed. In this era, the gap between the two is even greater.
The situation in the desert has improved a little, a little... but the changes in the rainforest have been earth-shaking.
She closed her eyes and unconsciously thought of the past.
When Il lived in the desert a thousand years ago, when Il opened his eyes, there was no one around him.
She was picked up by desert people who believed in the Red King. Those people raised her until she was six years old, and they excitedly said that they would offer her as a sacrifice to the Red King.
Let’s not talk about whether the Red King will accept human sacrifice, but El is so scared that he can’t sleep all day long.
She knew that she was a "sacrifice", and the desert people who raised her only regarded her as a "sacrifice" to be presented to the Red King.
In that constant fear, El ran away.
She took advantage of the night, in the desert's sharp wind and sand, and with a lonely courage supported by the fear in her heart, she walked into the dark and blinding night.
El thought that thanks to fate, when she was about to die, she met her friend from Canria.
She was a woman. When Il asked her name, she just smiled but said nothing.
El still remembers their meeting - she finally collapsed in the wind and sand due to exhaustion, and then a voice came from above her head:
The woman's voice was a little surprised: "Oh, there is actually a child here - is he still alive?"
El was speechless, but when the woman came closer, he instinctively grabbed a part of her skirt.
Then she was rescued.
The friend came from Kanria and didn’t know what to do when he came to Xumi this time. She didn’t tell him, and Il didn’t pay much attention. She read many books, the crystallization of wisdom brought by her friends from Kanria.
After all, desert people never have the opportunity to come into contact with such expensive things.
El watched eagerly, and her friends discovered her talent.
"You don't want to be a sacrifice...then do you want to resist, El?" the friend asked with a smile.
This sentence opened some taboo doors for El.
When she realized this, she was not frightened, she was even surprised - after all, people will always pursue something, and El also wanted to have something to pursue. She had to find something that would make her happy in retrospect. The “meaning” of feeling satisfied.
She didn't know what it was at the time, but she just thought what her friend said made sense.
The friend also said: "Did you know that somewhere in the desert, there are actually several places where the devil fell?"
El was curious: "Is it because of the Demon God War?"
Her pursuit of knowledge has put her in dangerous situations, but her friends appreciate her will and generously tell her some unknown secrets.
El thought, she really couldn't help but be curious.
She tries to explore those powerful and unknown things.
Afterwards, the friend left. She said she wanted to see the world and invited El to join her, but El refused.
"You know, I'm more interested in research," she said.
No one taught her what was right and what was wrong. Over more than ten years, Elle gradually formed a set of rules of her own.
But she thought she might have been kind in the beginning.
On the way to explore the place where the demon god fell, she met a man.
The man fell to the ground, looking uncertain whether he was alive or dead, with strange and powerful power emanating from his body.
Those powers were dangerous, and Il hurt his fingers just a little bit.
She was bleeding profusely, but her eyes flickered, and she was extremely excited to feel this power that was subtly different from the elemental power.
"It's amazing..." she murmured to herself, "You can't die."
El, who later read many story books, couldn't help but remain silent - such an old-fashioned encounter.
Before parting, the friend also warned El: "Curiosity and inquiry are very important things, but El, if your curiosity is too excessive, it may lead to some unbearable consequences. Please consider it carefully~"
Il thought that my friend was right.
If she was given another chance, El thought, she would never casually revive a person just because she wanted to satisfy her curiosity to study some escaping energy.
At that time, she should move forward unswervingly.
If that person wants to die, he will die. It is none of her business.
There are so many strange and weird energies. Anyway, her friends gave several addresses to the place where the Demon God fell. Why can’t she think about it! Why! want! think! No! open! save! people!
After the man woke up, he didn't say anything. He sat there and looked at her for a long time, then picked up the jackal hat on one side and left.
El: "..."
She is not a pure and kind-hearted person in the worldly sense.
El quickly stopped him and said hurriedly: "I saved you, you have to stay to repay me!"
She has not interacted with many normal people and does not know the art of speaking. Her requests are extremely simple and straightforward.
But what a coincidence, this silent guy is not a normal person either.
El thought to himself: It seems that he is still mute, which is really great. There will be no noise during the research process, which saves worry.
This man can't leave if he wants to.
El can't do things in vain.
She said in desperation: "Your injuries are not healed yet, you have to take medicine every day!"
"Hey, hey - you're not just dumb but also deaf, right? That's not possible... can you understand the gestures?" Seeing that he still didn't respond, Yier made exaggerated gestures to tell him -
"I - save you - you have to - stay and drink medicine -" Yi paused, then added, "If you leave now - you will die -"
She is not a magic doctor, and she can barely save a man's life, which is considered very good. After all, she is a researcher who has become a monk by the way - how can she know what prescription can replenish vitality?
But this seemingly deaf and mute man stopped leaving for this reason, so El needed to come up with something to fool him every day.
El doesn't have any normal thoughts.
She wanted to study the powerful energy escaping from the man, so the so-called "medicine" she gave him every day was quite perfunctory.
This place is very close to the place where the demon god fell, and there is no one around for hundreds of miles. Ir himself brought some potions that were kindly donated by his friends. These medicines are enough to last a month.
She didn't bother to look for it. She would feed him something whenever she saw it every day as "medicine".
——As long as he doesn’t die.
El thought irresponsibly.
Sometimes she would pick the red fruits from the cactus, make juice and pour it into a test tube as "medicine"; sometimes it would be a date palm that she was lucky enough to find.
All in all, she fooled around for a long time.
When El was studying the escaping energy from his body, she was always injured by the energy. She always bled. El's hands bleed more often, and her mind began to feel dizzy.
Until one day, she really fainted for a while. When she woke up and saw the man's face, she said "tsk", feeling a little impatient.
The man looked at her.
Taking advantage of his inability to hear, El muttered: "It's all your fault."
The man seemed a little confused, and El couldn't understand his expression.
"Your energy is too aggressive. My hand was injured and my research efficiency was slowed down... It's really annoying."
A few days later, she found that she no longer hurt her hand.
El was a little surprised, but also a little happy: "Have I finally developed resistance?"
Her research on escaping energy became even more fascinating, and the "medicine" she prepared for men became more and more perfunctory.
El even caught a Holy Gold Bug rolling a maracas next to it.
She crushed the golden worm and mixed it into the date palm juice that she had not used last time, then shook the test tube and handed it to him.
"Here, medicine."
The man hesitated.
El also took the trouble to explain: "It's not poisonous, it won't kill you, don't worry."
After she thought she had developed resistance to this mysterious energy, less than half a month later, El said to him: "My research is over, and you are fine too. Goodbye."
She said boldly: "I have saved your life for the time being. We have been together for so long, and I still don't know your name. How about I pick one for you?"
She thought for a long time and finally gave up: "Forget it, what you call me is none of my business."
She packed her things and was about to head towards her original goal.
Then the man spoke.
"Hermanubis."
As soon as this name appeared, El suddenly woke up.
Opening his eyes, the greenery of Xumi City came into view. Tinari was standing on tiptoes at a table not far away making food with his back on his back.
Everything looks warm.
She broke out in a cold sweat and murmured horribly: "How could I think of such a scary thing..."
Tinari heard the movement and turned around: "El, are you awake?"
Yi Erdeng walked over and buried his face in his tail hair: "Yeah."
I feel more at peace in my heart.
--small theater--
First explain El's previous story clearly, and then she will start to forget it.
After all, it's all in the past.
