The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 171 Awakening
"Ying, help, help, he wants to eat me!"

"You idiot, why did you put your hand near Ruojin's mouth? Now you've been bitten by Ruojin."

"I just want to tempt Ruojin with barbecue to see if I can wake him up with delicious food. Ying, stop watching the show and help me pull it out. Ruojin's teeth have started to move."

Paimeng, who was lying on Ruojin, almost cried. This Ying, who was always looking for trouble, would not only lose the barbecue in her hand, but also her little arm if she didn't help. What did Eula say? She would remember this grudge!

Feeling as if something delicious was moving in his mouth, Ruojin, whose brain was a little dazed, subconsciously took a bite of the plump thing in his mouth. Paimon, who was lying on him, screamed, which scared Ruojin. As soon as he loosened his mouth, Ying seized the opportunity and quickly pulled Paimon's little arm out of Ruojin's mouth.

"Ruojin, you're awake. I didn't expect Paimeng's food temptation method to be so effective."

"Ying, where am I? What the hell is this food temptation method?"

Ruojin, who had just woken up from a coma, was still a little confused. Looking at the familiar ceiling, Ruojin always felt that he seemed to have seen this ceiling a few days ago.

"Ruo Jin, you are finally awake. If you don't wake up, Hall Master Hu will go to Jueyunjian to find the immortal."

Seeing the confusion in Ruojin's eyes that didn't seem like the look that the Ruotu Dragon King could emit, Ying sat down beside Ruojin's bed and picked up the apple that Xiangling had brought from the cupboard and started eating it.

"Ying, if I'm not mistaken, this apple should have been bought for me by someone when they came to visit me, right? Shouldn't you peel an apple for me at this time?"

"Oh, if we are forbidden to fight, who will we be? Now that you are awake, you can do it yourself to have enough food and clothing."

??? Three question marks popped up on Ruo Jin's head. No, why did he feel that after he had been unconscious for a few days, Ying became more and more disdainful? Could it be that Ying knew some very confidential information and became bolder?
It might be an accidental achievement, and Ruojin really guessed it right. During the three days when Ruojin was unconscious, Ying knew a lot of things, such as the fact that Zhongli was the Geo King, and that everything that happened in Liyue Harbor was a test set by Zhongli for the people of Liyue. She even witnessed Zhongli personally handing the Heart of the God to the lady.

It was also during these days that, at Zhongli's suggestion, Ying confirmed the next destination of her trip, Inazuma. However, because Inazuma is currently under a lockdown order and there are thunderstorms all around, she cannot go there directly at the moment.

According to the information she got from Ningguang, the only ship that could break through the thunderstorm and enter Inazuma in Liyue was the Death Star, and the next time the Death Star would arrive at Liyue Harbor would be during the Lantern Festival in more than half a month.

After calculating the time, this was exactly what Ying wanted. She didn't have much Mora in her pocket to begin with, and now that she was in a new country with no acquaintances and no background, she would definitely have a lot of money to spend. So Ying decided to work hard on commissions in the next few days to earn more Mora.

"Hmm? Why does my mouth taste like barbecue? Wait, Paimon, you're not going to put your dirty little hands in my mouth, are you???"

"What? It was clearly you, the bad guy Ruojin, who put my hand in your mouth and even bit me."

"What's the matter?"

Ruojin hurriedly climbed up from the stone bed, grabbed some water from the stone table and started to rinse her mouth. Paimon became unhappy when she saw that Ruojin despised her. She, Paimon, was a very clean person. She had just swam in the sea of ​​Liyue Harbor with Ying last night.

Ningguang is a really good person. As long as you help her salvage some things, she will give you a lot of Mora. Last night, she and Ying made a lot of extra money when they were salvaging things in the sea. But for some reason, all they caught were small items, and none of the things they had caught before were seen.

After rinsing his mouth and chewing a few pieces of mint, Ruo Jin felt that there was no strange taste in his mouth. He then looked around where he was. Well, as he expected, it was Bubu Lu.

"By the way, Ying, do you know how Hu Tao and Xiang Ling are doing? Are they not injured?"

"Hu Tao and Xiang Ling, they are both fine. During the few days you were in a coma, they took turns to take care of you every day and fed you medicine personally. It's really enviable." As he spoke, Ying took out a lunch box and handed it to Ruo Jin. This was delivered by Xiang Ling this morning. No matter how busy she was, Xiang Ling always delivered three meals a day personally. Even when it was Hu Tao's turn to accompany Ruo Jin, Xiang Ling would come to Bubulu on time with the lunch box.

Ruo Jin did not bother to be polite with Ying. He was really hungry. He opened the lunch box and saw a box full of nutritious lotus seeds and poultry egg custard in front of him. Paimeng suddenly felt that the barbecue he bought on the street was not fragrant anymore.

After pouring a small bowl for Paimeng, Ruo Jin tilted his head back and finished a lunch box of lotus seed and poultry egg custard. Feeling his stomach, which had long begun to protest, calm down, he rubbed his belly and asked with some confusion.

"Ying, didn't you say that Xiangling and Hutao would take turns to take care of me? Why don't I see them?"

"Oh, about that. Originally, Hu Tao was supposed to take care of you today, but Hu Tao had to preside over the burial and farewell ceremony for the sacrificed Qianyan soldiers this morning, so she asked me to take over in the morning. I also have a rare rest."

The people in the Hall of the Reborn have been very busy these days. There were so many people sacrificed in this disaster, and the purchase and production of various funeral supplies all fell on the shoulders of the Hall of the Reborn. Despite the cooperation of the General Affairs Department, the Hall of the Reborn is still short of staff.

Because of this reason, not only did Ying, a temporary worker at the Wangsheng Hall, have to run around, but even Mona, a guest at the Wangsheng Hall, was arranged by Hu Tao to purchase various things because she could run fast.

Of course, Zhongli had no way to run away. After he had just finished the transaction with the lady, Zhongli was directly assigned by Hu Tao to the job of engraving on a tombstone. Hu Tao also asked Ying to keep an eye on Zhongli and tell him not to be lazy.

If Zhongli hadn't been working really hard these days, Ying felt that she might have been so worried that her hair would fall out. After all, before she knew Zhongli's identity, it was fine to say that Zhongli was a social loser, but now that she knew Zhongli's identity, Ying was worried that Zhongli would settle all the old and new scores with her, so how could she have the courage to report Zhongli?

"To send off Xian Dianyi and Qianyan Army's funeral? Then Kurumi should indeed be there in person."

"Not only that, let me tell you, Hu Tao waived all the expenses for this funeral. I heard from Lao Meng that she also used the best coffins for the sacrificed Qianyan soldiers. This is a huge expense."

Ruo Jin was just about to sigh that Hu Tao has grown up, but Paimeng, who couldn't keep secrets, immediately told her everything that Hu Tao had done recently. After hearing what Paimon said, Ruo Jin was quite surprised. It was indeed beyond Ruo Jin's expectation that Hu Tao could do such a thing.

"By the way, Boss Ruota, how are you? Are you not hurt?"

"Huh, you just remembered me now, didn't you? Keep asking about your two little wives. I, as the eldest, am not as important as your two little wives."

"Haha, Master Ruota, what you said is true. I can forget anyone but you."

Inside the seal, King Ruota said a few sarcastic words to Ruojin, but looking at Ruojin's pale face and weak body, King Ruota couldn't bear to continue blaming Ruojin.

"Humph, you still owe me an apology! If Morax hadn't left some divine power in your body to strengthen your soul, it would be a question whether you could wake up now."

As expected, the fact that he was able to wake up was because the Emperor had a backup plan for him. Thinking of the extremely realistic dream he had during his coma, Ruo Jin felt that he needed to tell Boss Ruota what the Emperor asked him to convey.

"Boss Ruota."

"Huh? Why are you so serious? Are you ready to apologize?"

"Well, in addition to the apology, the Emperor also asked me to convey a message to you, Boss Ruota. You will always be his best brother."
