The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 377: Walnut Obsessed with the Seven Sages' Summoning

Unlike the bustling morning in Liyue Harbor, the morning in Xumi City is always full of vitality. The morning breeze blows gently, and the green plants in Xumi City are wrapped in the smell of nature. The unique fragrance of the trees is the natural alarm clock for the people of Xumi. Smelling this fragrance, the people in Xumi City gradually wake up from their sleep.

In a room of the Xumi branch of the Wangsheng Hall, sunlight shines into the room through the window. This beam of shining golden thread not only illuminates the room but also illuminates the person sleeping soundly in the room.

Feeling the light from the outside world, Ruojin, who had not had a good sleep for several days, slowly opened his eyes. Ruojin, who was still a little confused after waking up from his sleep, got up and sat on the bed. After saying good morning to Ruota Dragon King out of habit, Ruojin unexpectedly found that Ruota Dragon King did not reply to him.

After thinking for a few seconds, Ruo Jin remembered that when Hu Tao was coaxing him to sleep last night, he seemed to have cut off the perception between him and the Dragon King Ruota. This made Ruo Jin smile awkwardly, and then he hurriedly reconnected the perception between him and the Dragon King Ruota.

Sensing that the Dragon King Ruota was still sleeping soundly inside the seal, Ruo Jin said "good morning" and as usual, he heard the Dragon King Ruota reply with the same good morning in his half-asleep state.

The environment in Xumi was quite good. He gradually woke up from his sleepy state. As soon as Ruo Jin smelled the fragrance of the trees coming from outside the window, his stomach protested before he could stretch and feel the morning in Xumi.

Well, it seems that there is no need to feel the morning of Xumi. What he needs now is to feel the delicious animals of Xumi. Rubbing his stomach that was already growling, Ruo Jin immediately prepared to put on his clothes and feel the deliciousness of the animals of Xumi.

But just as Ruojin in the room put on her clothes, the voice of Hutao in the hall came into Ruojin's ears. Ruojin listened carefully, and only heard Hutao speaking excitedly outside the door.

"The weather is nice and the birds are happy. There are six fire dice in total! Haha, Ying, you are definitely going to lose this game! After playing cards all night, I am finally going to win this time!"

Seeing six fire dice appear in front of her with just a throw, Hu Tao was so excited that she almost jumped up from the stool. She and Ying played Seven Saints Summons all night, and she didn't know if it was because of Xumi's bad feng shui, but she didn't win a single game the whole night. This made Hu Tao, who was thinking of going to bed after winning a game, play cards all night.

And Ying was naturally happy to have someone to play with her. When she played with Paimon before, Paimon's hands were too small to grab many cards. Every time she won against Paimon, Ying felt that it was a bit unfair. So she finally found someone who was willing to play cards with her. Ying did not miss a sleep all night, but she didn't know if it was because of not sleeping all night that made her eyes a little blurry, Ying suddenly felt that the light in front of her seemed to be blocked by something.

"Eh? Why are you looking at me in such a strange way? It's your turn now, play your cards quickly."

Holding a Staff of Homa card in her hand, she was waiting for Ying to finish her turn so that she could win the game of Seven Divine Summons in one fell swoop. At this time, Kurumi unexpectedly found that Ying was staring at her with a strange look, and the expression on her face became a little weird. However, victory was right in front of her. Kurumi, who had lost all night, just wanted to win this game and didn't think too much about the rest. She just urged Ying to play her cards quickly.

"Well, Kurumi, I think we should go eat and get some sleep. It's really inappropriate to play cards all night."

At Hu Tao's urging, Ying Weiwei swallowed his saliva and persuaded Hu Tao again, but this time Ying winked at Hu Tao while persuading her.

Hu Tao, who was smart, noticed Ying's abnormality and knew who was behind her. Curious, she turned her head and saw that Ruo Jin was standing behind her with a gloomy face.

Realizing that Ruojin might have heard what she said about playing the Seven Summonings all night, Hu Tao smiled awkwardly, then threw the cards in her hand and hugged Ruojin's arm and started to act like a spoiled child. Knowing that Ruojin had no resistance to her trick, in order to avoid being taught a lesson by Ruojin, Hu Tao pressed her whole body against Ruojin's. Since Ruojin was only wearing a thin shirt when he put on his clothes just now, Hu Tao was now pressed against him, and Ruojin could clearly feel the heat of Hu Tao's body.

But it was obvious that Ruojin did not want to let Hutao go. He just opened his mouth to educate Hutao and explain to her the dangers of staying up all night, but Hutao simply stood on tiptoe and kissed Ruojin on the lips.

"Ajin, please let me go. I know I was wrong. Please, please, please~"

Since she had often taken Klee around with her in Mondstadt, Hu Tao was quite familiar with Klee's usual coquettish ways. In order to prevent Ruo Jin from getting angry with her, Hu Tao simply imitated Klee's appearance and tone, hugged Ruo Jin's arm and began to shake it.
With Hu Tao's cute acting, Ruo Jin's anger gradually subsided, and her dark face slowly returned to normal. Seeing all this, Hu Tao was secretly happy in her heart, because she knew that Ruo Jin was no longer angry, and she naturally avoided the lecture.

"Alright, alright, I won't talk about you anymore, Hu Tao, you should go to sleep. Sister Beidou will come to Xumi in two days. It will take several days to get from Xumi to Liyue. You should rest more before you get on the ship."

"Yeah, yeah, Ah Jin, I'm going to sleep first, good night~"

Hu Tao said good night to Ruo Jin under the rising sun, yawned and walked into Ruo Jin's room. Compared to her room, Hu Tao felt that the bed with Ruo Jin's scent would make her sleep more comfortably.

Seeing Hu Tao go to his room, Ruo Jin said helplessly after glaring at Ying.

"Ying, have you had breakfast? If not, I'll bring you one later."

"Hehe, I'm really sorry to bother you. I'm going to go get some sleep first."

Ying, who had been playing Seven Saints Summons with Hu Tao all night, scratched her head a little embarrassedly, and then prepared to catch up on some sleep. Because as the number of times she and Hu Tao played cards increased, Hu Tao's card skills also improved rapidly. Although it was very enjoyable to play, it was also very tiring.

"Okay, go and have a rest. I'll put the rice in the pot later."

Nodding to Ying, Ruojin opened the door and walked out of the Xumi branch of Lewangsheng Hall, because he realized that his stomach was already protesting, and if he didn't eat, it might cry out soon.

Just a dozen seconds after Ruojin left, the door of Ruojin's room was opened with a click. Hu Tao, who had not even taken off her clothes, stuck her head out to look at the living room. After finding that only Ying, who had just washed up and played, was in the living room, Hu Tao said excitedly.

"Ying, let's play another game of Seven Sage Summons!"
