The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 395 Paimon’s Poor Teeth (1)

"Ying, why do I feel like those people from the Adventurer's Association are fooling us? Even we may not be able to find the location where these Moon Chasing Talismans are placed, but the people from the Adventurer's Association can actually put them there? This is too outrageous."

At the cliff, Paimeng flew from the bottom of the cliff to the top of the cliff holding a Moon-Chasing Talisman. She complained as she flew. If it weren't for Ying's sharp eyes, she would never have thought that Paimeng would put the Moon-Chasing Talisman under the cliff.

Ying nodded in agreement. If the people from the Adventurer's Association hadn't marked this location on the map, no one would have been able to find the Moon-Chasing Talisman, let alone others. Even if she had the ability to spot every treasure chest within her sight, she might not have been able to find it. After all, who would jump off a cliff for no reason?

"Alright, Paimon, stop complaining. Although the location of these Moon Chasing Talismans is a bit shady, the reward for being expelled from the Adventurer's Association is still very good."

"There are a lot of Mora alone. When we find a hundred Moon Chasing Talismans, there is said to be a mysterious grand prize."

Noticing that Paimon was a little upset, Ying comforted Paimon with a few words. If it weren't for the preliminary round of the cooking competition tomorrow and she wanted to get the mysterious grand prize from the Adventurer's Association before the competition started, she wouldn't be looking for this thing.

Liyue's terrain is full of hills, and those people from the Adventurer's Guild are not human. The locations where they place the Moon-Chasing Talismans are worse than the others. Just now, when she was looking for the Moon-Chasing Talisman, she met Qiqi who was picking herbs. Qiqi said that several people fell off the mountain while looking for the Moon-Chasing Talisman, and all the herbs in Bubulu were used up.

"Mysterious Gift! Ying, let's continue!"

When Paimeng heard about the mysterious gift, he suddenly became interested. In Paimeng's impression, the Adventurer's Association of Liyue Port has always been generous. What's more, this is an event organized by the Adventurer's Association and the Liyue official. The final mysterious gift must be very precious.

After some searching, Ying and Paimon finally found one hundred Moon-Chasing Talismans. After putting them away, Ying and Paimon walked towards Liyue Harbor with great anticipation.

Meanwhile, in Wanmin Hall, Xiangling, who had been studying cooking for the whole morning, was staring at the pile of ingredients in front of her with worry. Tomorrow would be the preliminary round of the cooking competition. Although the theme of the dish was not so important in the preliminary round, it would be very important in the later competitions. However, she had no idea what dish to cook for the final, and she had lost a lot of hair in the past few days because of this.

When Xiangling thought of the hair in the basin when she washed her hair this morning, she became even more depressed. Glancing at Ruojin and Hutao who were also thinking, Xiangling breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she had Hutao and her brother Jin to help her think, otherwise she would have lost a lot of hair.

"Ying, those guys from the Adventurer's Association are really bullying us. We collected so many Moon Chasing Talismans, but the Adventurer's Association only gave us a salted fish that we couldn't chew?"

"Wow, wow, wow, my teeth are shaking from biting this salted fish. What kind of crappy salted fish is this?"

"Paimon, Miss Catherine has already told you that this is a weapon, but you insisted on trying it with your mouth. Now, I'll go to Baishu to help you take a look. If it doesn't work, you can only go to Mondstadt to find Albedo. I hope the magical Albedo can find a solution."

On the way to Bubulu, Ying's tone was full of helplessness. She didn't know whether Baishu could cure a magical creature like Paimon. If Baishu failed, then she could only take Paimon to Mond to find Albedo.

"Xiangling, are you still thinking about cooking~"

On the way to Bubu Lu, they happened to pass by Wanmin Hall and saw a pile of food in front of Xiangling. Ying also greeted Xiangling.

"Ying, you're here. Wait, Paimon, you're like this, hahaha."

Xiangling said hello to Ying, but before she could finish her words, she saw Paimeng covering his mouth. Xiangling took a few more glances and unexpectedly found that Paimeng's face seemed to be swollen. This funny look made Xiangling laugh. "Hey! Xiangling, you don't sympathize with me but laugh at me. You are so mean!"

"Ouch, it hurts, it hurts..."

Hearing Xiangling's laughter, Paimeng stomped his feet in the air angrily, but it seemed that the large amplitude of the movement affected his teeth, and Paimeng covered his mouth again before he finished speaking.

"Hahaha, sorry, sorry, little Paimon, you remind me of the time when Guoba's face got swollen after he ate a little stone. Little Paimon, you look exactly like Guoba now."

"Has Guoba encountered this situation before? Great, Xiangling, tell me how Guoba is better."

Xiangling scratched her head feeling a little embarrassed, but the curve at the corner of her mouth that had not been smoothed out showed that she was not at peace at this moment. Ruojin and Hutao, who heard Xiangling's laughter, also noticed that Paimon was abnormal.

"Haha, Paimon, what happened to you? Your face is so swollen."

A burst of laughter came out of Hu Tao's mouth, but the concern in her words could still be heard by several people. In response, Ruo Jin also looked at Ying after laughing a few times.

After Ying told the story that had just happened, the people in the Hall of All People laughed even louder. They had also heard of Liyue's Salted Fish Greatsword, which was a Salted Fish Greatsword that even the Hilliard King couldn't break. How could Paimon possibly bite it? After a burst of laughter, Xiangling also found a small bag of powder.

"Apply these anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving powders to the injured tooth for a few days and it will be fine. Be careful during these few days and don't eat spicy, hot, sour, or cold food. But you still need to apply ice compresses."

"As an apology, I'll make you whatever you want to eat. It's free~"

After hearing Ying say that she and Paimeng had gone out early in the morning to look for the Moon-Chasing Talisman and hadn't even had breakfast, Xiangling took out a popsicle and gave it to Paimeng, signaling Paimeng to use the popsicle to cool him down. She also wanted to make something to eat for Ying and Paimeng.

"Really? Then I want to eat..."

Speaking of food, Paimon began to think frantically about her not-so-bright little head. Unfortunately, perhaps because her brain capacity was really limited, after excluding spicy, hot, icy, and sour food, Paimon didn't know what to eat for a moment.

"Xiangling, you don't have to bother too much. Just make two bowls of noodles for us. Um~ Don't put anything else in the bowl for Paimon except the clear soup."

"Ying, you are cutting my food supply. I want to protest!"

"If you don't want to miss out on the delicious food at tomorrow's cooking competition, Paimon, then you have to listen to me. Haven't you heard that toothache is a minor illness, but it can be very painful when it really happens?"

After hearing what Ying said, Paimeng could only nod reluctantly. She didn't expect that clear soup noodles would appear on her menu. This was simply a shame for her.
