The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 42: First Encounter with Lei Ze
"Brother Ruojin, Brother Bennett, you two should hurry up. There is a small pond ahead. Keli is waiting for you there."

When they were at home, as soon as Bennett said he had accepted a commission to pick hook-hook fruits in Benlang Territory, Klee immediately shouted excitedly that she wanted to go and play with her brother Lei Ze. Although Ruo Jin had heard Bennett mention Lei Ze, she was a little worried about Bennett taking Klee out to play, so she decided to go with them.

Klee was skipping along the road. Behind her, Ruojin and Bennett were chatting idly. With Ruojin's sense of the earth veins, Ruojin was not worried that Klee would encounter any danger, but it was hard to say about Bennett.

"Brother Ruojin, when there is a chance I will definitely take you to meet Miss Barbara. Miss Barbara is not only kind but also has excellent healing abilities."

"She gave me the commission to pick the hook fruit today. The reward is more generous than the normal commissions to clear monsters."

During the conversation, Ruo Jin inadvertently asked about the clinic in Mond, and Bennett immediately introduced Ruo Jin to a nun named Barbara in the West Wind Cathedral.

"And Miss Barbara never charges any fee for treating others. I have been seriously injured many times and Miss Barbara cured me."

Listening to Bennett's introduction to Barbara, Ruo Jin roughly understood what kind of person this nun with remarkable healing effects was. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be easy to get along with her.

Well, it seems necessary to get to know her in advance, so that if Xiangling gets bumped into, I can bother her. After all, girls would definitely care a little about scars on their bodies.

When Xiangling was little, she was injured many times because of her lively and active personality. As the eldest brother, Ruojin naturally could not bear to see Xiangling go home with injuries, so Ruojin applied all kinds of expensive ointments from the Ke family to Xiangling, which prevented Xiangling from getting scars on her knees and other places that were prone to bumps.

This time they came out in a hurry, and Ruo Jin didn't think that Xiangling would sneak into Mondstadt, so naturally he didn't prepare any extra medicine for treatment. Therefore, it was very necessary to establish a good relationship with people who have healing abilities in advance.

At the edge of the Wolf Territory, tall and straight trees blocked the sunny path. To the people of Mond, the wolves of the Wolf Territory were usually eerie phantoms: blurry images flashing between trees, mournful howls whose directions were difficult to discern, and the vague sight that could often be felt when walking alone in the wild woods.

As soon as he stepped into the Wolf Territory, Ruo Jin felt a chill and gloom coming towards him. The traces of battles everywhere and the faint smell of blood in the air made Ruo Jin unconsciously expand his perception of the earth veins to the maximum.

Under the perception of the earth veins, Ruo Jin could clearly sense the wolves hiding deep in the forest. Moreover, except for a guy who looked like a human and Ruo Jin and his two companions, there was no human breath in the entire Benlang Territory. It seemed that Benlang Territory was not a safe place.

"Tsk, this breath, if I remember correctly, this should be the breath of that old wolf."

"But it seems that he has not had a good life in recent years. With such weak power, it is hard to imagine that he would have been one of the overlords of Mondstadt thousands of years ago."

"Sure enough, except for Morax, no other demon god can compare to me."

Inside the seal, King Ruotu felt quite emotional after sensing a familiar breath. It was really ironic that this guy was so proud and free once upon a time, but now he can only be bound here.

"Boss Ruo Tuo, you said there is a demon god in this Benlang Territory?"

Hearing what the Dragon King Ruotu said, Ruo Jin stopped moving forward. Was Bennett sure he was not bringing him here to die? He was a demon god, and from what Boss Ruotu said, he was a very powerful demon god.

"Demon God? You could call him that in the past, but now, he is not. At best, he is just a remnant soul."

"Just go ahead and don't worry, kid. If he really dares to come out and bully you, I'll slap him to death when I get out."

Sensing Ruojin's worry, Ruotu Dragon King's tone was filled with a hint of disdain. He had never been afraid of this old wolf when he was at his peak, but now he was just a remnant soul. Did he, Ruotu Dragon King's little brother, have to hide? "Brother Ruojin, what's wrong with you?"

"No, nothing. I just can't adapt to the surrounding environment for a while."

After explaining, Ruojin followed Bennett and continued to move deeper into the Wolf Territory. However, Ruojin left a trace of rock element on both Klee and Bennett. If any accident happened, Ruojin could put a shield on them both in the first place.

Of course, this shield might be a bit fragile, but there's nothing we can do about it, since Boss Ruota doesn't know how to put on a shield. And every time Ruo Jin mentions this kind of moves, Boss Ruota's emotions become very unstable, and he keeps yelling about Morax and so on.

Following the path deeper into the Wolf Territory, Ruo Jin felt at first that the Wolf Territory was somewhat similar to Wuwang Slope, but the deeper he went into the Wolf Territory, the more he felt that there was a huge difference between the two.

The land veins in Benlang Territory are not as disorderly as those in Wuwangpo, but are very flat. Moreover, the environment in Benlang Territory is not as gloomy as Wuwangpo. Instead, it is more like a hunting ground, a hunting ground specially for the wolves living in the deep forest.

"Leize, Leiize, I'm coming to see you!"

"Brother Lei Ze, Klee is here to play with you!"

When they arrived at the place where they had agreed to meet Lazer, Bennett started shouting at the top of his voice. Klee was not to be outdone, and she followed Bennett's example and started calling the furry brother she had described to Ruojin.

,

The calling voice echoed in the deep forest. According to Ruo Jin's perception of the earth veins, the thing that seemed like a human was moving quickly towards his location.

Two minutes later, a boy who looked about the same age as Bennett suddenly jumped out from the bushes by the roadside. Seeing the boy, Bennett happily ran to him and introduced him.

Sure enough, the aura of this young man named Lei Ze was similar to what he sensed. As soon as they met, Ruo Jin noticed that there was another aura on Lei Ze. How to describe it? It was similar to his. He also had two auras, that of a human and that of the boss Ruota.

"Leize, it's been a long time since we last met. This is Brother Ruojin, the one I told you saved me last time."

"Brother Ruojin, this is my good friend Lei Ze, who lives in Benlang Territory."

Living in the Wolf Territory, could he be the legendary child raised by wolves? This would explain why Lei Ze's aura was somewhat different from that of ordinary people under the perception of the earth veins. Ruo Jin and Lei Ze looked at each other and nodded slightly. This child raised by wolves didn't have any bad intentions. When Klee played with him, Ruo Jin would not worry that Klee would be taught a bad lesson. After all, sometimes animals are more trustworthy than people.

"Brother Lei Ze, this time Klee has prepared some powerful bouncing bombs. Let's hunt for the wolves together."

"Several wild boars ran away last time. This time, Klee must catch them!"

"No, it's over. Lupicas are already full."

Hearing that Klee wanted to help, Lei Ze suddenly felt fortunate that he had hunted a lot of prey with the wolf pack this morning. Although this red and hot little girl was helping him out of kindness, this kindness was still too heavy for Lei Ze now.
