The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 2 Xiangling and Walnut

In Ke's mansion, there were not many trivial matters today. It was quiet for the whole morning. Keqing, who hadn't had such free time for a long time, returned home and prepared to take a vacation to rest.

Before she could even sit down in the pavilion, a little head wearing a Qiankun Tai Gua hat popped out from behind the gate outside Keqing's mansion. Keqing was used to it and sighed slightly. After knowing this Hall Master Hu for such a long time, she still had some difficulty in dealing with him.

"Hu Tao, Ah Jin is not at home. You can go to Wanmin Hall and maybe find him. He should be having lunch there at this time."

"Also, next time don't post the flyers for the Wangsheng Hall on the message board of our General Affairs Department. Someone has complained to me."

Thinking of the complaints she had received about Wangsheng Hall, Keqing felt it necessary to say a few words to Hu Tao, but Hu Tao did not give Keqing this opportunity.

"I know, I know. Keqing, you go ahead and do your work. I'm going to look for Ajin."

Seeing Hu Tao disappear with a whoosh, Keqing rubbed her brows in pain. Hu Tao and Ruo Jin always caused her some trouble when they were together. She didn't know what these two guys would do this time.

Thinking of this, Keqing felt that when Ruojin came back, she needed to educate her younger brother again. It was not because he always caused her trouble, but mainly because if she didn't educate him now, she might not be able to beat him in the future. It's better to beat her younger brother as soon as possible. When she was thinking about how to deal with Ruojin, a Qianyan soldier hurried over.

"Master Yuheng, a group of monsters appeared in the wild, and many brothers were injured."

"What? I'll go right away. Just tell our people to be safe and hold back the monster!"

On the street, after learning that Ruo Jin was not at home, the eccentric Hu Tao had no desire to talk to Keqing. This kind of wealthy family always gave her a feeling of being bound by various rules, which made Hu Tao, who was free and unrestrained by nature, very uncomfortable.

"Ajin is still interesting. If I had known this earlier, when Ajin and Xiangling became brothers, I should have jumped out earlier and become sworn brothers with them."

"It's all the fault of that old scholar Zhongli. He didn't come to play earlier, but he came when I went up to greet him. He ruined my good deeds and pissed me off."

When Ruojin was five years old, Keqing's father, who was also Ruojin's adoptive father, sent Ruojin to a private school in order to let Ruojin have a good childhood and learn more knowledge.

At that time, private schools were not affordable for children from poor families. Most of the children sent to private schools came from wealthy or noble families, and these playboys from wealthy families were naturally willing to form gangs and bully children from ordinary families.

These wealthy people might be more taboo about the passing of the dead. No child wanted to talk to Hu Tao, and Hu Tao could only watch other people playing games from afar. Over time, she didn't want to go to the private school anymore and often skipped classes.

That day, when Little Walnut packed up his books and prepared to go home alone, he was suddenly attracted by a burst of noise. The curious Little Walnut naturally would not miss such an event, so he tiptoed and hid behind the wall to peek.

In the corner, I saw a black-haired little boy with a small glowing stone on his waist, waving a table in his hand. The blue-haired little girl who was protected by him was sobbing softly. At his feet, there were more than 20 children lying on the ground wailing.

Seeing that the danger was over, the little boy threw the table aside, waved his hand and took out three incense sticks and stuck them on the ground, and then he became sworn brothers with the little girl with dark blue hair. Kurumi was shocked and could never forget the little boy's words.
"From now on, Xiangling is my brother, Ruojin. If you bully her, you are showing no respect to me. If you don't show respect to me, I will beat you until you show respect to me. Do you understand?"

When the isolated Hu Tao saw this scene, her plum blossom pupils almost turned into stars. She wanted to rush to Ruo Jin and become sworn brothers with him. However, her grandfather was worried about Hu Tao and asked Zhongli to come to the private school to pick her up. Hu Tao, who was intercepted by Zhongli, had to give up the idea of ​​becoming sworn brothers.

After that incident, Hu Tao also tried to get in touch with Ruo Jin. After some contact, the two little guys with all kinds of wonderful ideas in their heads quickly became good friends, and Xiangling naturally joined in. Unfortunately, later on, because Xiangling had to learn cooking, she didn't have time to play together all the time.

Over the years, although Ruojin and Hutao have made many jokes, Hutao still likes to go to Kefu to find Ruojin. With Ruojin around, she will never feel bored all day. Recently, she has found many clients and earned a lot of Mora with the help of the immortal named Dragon King in Ruojin's head.

Seeing how good Ruojin and Hutao were when they were little, Ruojin's adoptive father happily found Hutao's grandfather and said he wanted to arrange a marriage for them. When Hutao heard that she could play with Ruojin for the rest of her life, she happily agreed. However, the matter ended up being dropped because Keqing cried and made a fuss and didn't want to give Ruojin away.

When she grew up, Ruojin's adoptive father and mother often used this incident to tease Keqing, especially after Keqing became the Yuheng Star, she always had a stern and serious face, which made the two old people often say that little Keqing was crying and making a fuss because she couldn't play with little Ruojin for the rest of her life, and that Keqing was so pitiful that she instantly lost control of her facial expressions.

Hu Tao jumped up and down and kicked the pebbles on the roadside in dissatisfaction. No, she had to find an excuse to deduct Zhongli's salary to let him know how powerful she is. Just as she was thinking about how many years of salary should be deducted, Hu Tao stopped.

Wait, something seems wrong. If she remembered correctly, Zhongli's salary had been advanced to three hundred years later, right? When she died, wouldn't Zhongli bankrupt the Wangsheng Hall?

When she thought of the bills that Wangsheng Hall received at the end of each month, Hu Tao immediately lost her temper. Well, she should go to Ruo Jin to eat for free, so as to save some money for Wangsheng Hall. If Wangsheng Hall went bankrupt under the leadership of her, the 77th head of the hall, she didn't know how she would face the 76 previous heads of the hall a hundred years later. "Ahem, ahem, ahem."

Inside the Wanmin Hall, Ruojin, who was enjoying Tianshu meat, suddenly coughed, and rice grains sprayed all over the table. Xiangling, who had been keeping an eye on Ruojin, was startled, threw the shovel in her hand aside, and immediately patted Ruojin on the back.

"Guoba, stop spitting fire and go get a glass of water."

Xiangling patted Ruojin's back, and soon Guoba twisted his butt and brought a glass of water. After taking a big sip of water, Ruojin patted his chest, and he finally went down the meal.

"I'm alive, I'm alive. Thank you Xiangling and Guoba."

"Brother Jin, eat slowly. It's easy to choke if you eat too fast."

Xiangling picked up the rag and skillfully wiped the rice grains on the table. She also lectured Ruojin. She also served Ruojin another bowl of new rice. Ruojin felt a little embarrassed. It was really embarrassing that she, an adult, could still choke on rice. It was all because of that nagging boss Ruota.

"Brother Jin, keep eating. I'm going to cook. Call me if you need anything."

After clearing the table, Xiangling rushed into the kitchen and started working again. Guoba, who was hiding behind Ruojin and trying to be lazy, was ruthlessly caught by Xiangling.

"Lululu! Lululu~"

Guoba was reluctant to leave and waved his short hand. In the vast sea of ​​people, you and I met and separated in an instant, but our hearts will always know each other. Goodbye, the boy with a familiar smell ~ We will meet again eventually, but before the food is served, I still have an unfinished war with the stove.

"Come on, Guoba, you are the best."

Guoba's pitiful look did not soften Ruojin's heart. Although Guoba loved to stick to him and he liked Guoba very much, Xiangling said that if Guoba didn't spit fire, he would get fatter and fatter, and Guoba would surely get sick easily. For Guoba's health, Ruojin could only harden his heart and watch Guoba being forced to do hard labor.

"Boss Ruota, you must be teasing me with what you just said, right?"

"Although I think I'm pretty capable, I still know my limitations. I don't want to die in Mondstadt before I even have a wife."

Ruo Jin's words made the sealed Ruo Tuo very dissatisfied. As his younger brother, he was actually scared by that kid Tevarin? It was really embarrassing for him.

"Humph, of course I know you are no match for Tevarin. I asked you to go to Mond to find the wind god Barbatos, not to attack Tevarin."

Ruo Jin curled his lips. What's the difference? Do you really think he's still the silly kid he was six years ago? Over the years, relying on the financial resources of the Ke family and Keqing's identity as a Yuheng star, Ruo Jin knows some intelligence about various countries.

"Come on, I think it's more realistic to go and attack Tevarin. The wind god of Mondstadt hasn't appeared in many years. I don't want to die of old age in Mondstadt."

"Humph, Tevarin has lost his mind. Barbatos will definitely come out. If he doesn't come out, I will recognize you as my big brother."

Hearing what King Ruota said, Ruo Jin knew that King Ruota must be absolutely sure. Without being 100% sure about his eldest brother's identity, King Ruota would definitely not put it up for bet.

It seems that he has to go to Mondstadt this time, but the dragon plague in Mondstadt is so serious now, Sister Keqing will definitely not agree to let him go to Mondstadt. What excuse should he find so that he can go to Mondstadt openly and not be scolded when he comes back?

Ruo Jin was having a headache as he couldn't think of any good ideas. Boss Ruo Tuo really gave him a difficult problem. He couldn't think of any good excuse to go to Mond at this time. For a moment, he even felt that the food in front of him didn't taste good.

"Oh my, Ah Jin, you are here after all. Xiangling, add a serving of boiled fish. Ah Jin, it's your treat~"
