Chapter 472: Traveler's Study Tour 4
When the evil-minded traveler heard that he could learn most of Inazuma's recipes at the Hinare Shrine, he decided to go there and learn a lot.
After all, Ying-chan not only likes to eat delicious food, but also likes to make delicious food.
Besides, she did obtain a senior chef certificate when she was in Liyue, although she couldn't create new dishes like Xiangling.
But cooking according to the recipe is still very simple for Ying.
Whether it is a simple Teyvat fried egg or the complex and varied Fairy Jumps Over the Wall, it is not a problem for the dignified traveler Ying.
"This is the dangerous area that Brother Mingyan warned us to be careful of, right?" Paimon said as he looked at the area in front of him. "It is said that every night there will be many lively groups fighting in these places."
"I can smell blood in these places right now."
"And this plant... must be Dendrobium officinale. There are so many of them growing in this area. It seems like a lot of blood has been shed here."
"Let's get to the town as soon as possible. This place gives me a terrible feeling." Paimon said.
Ying also nodded. Although she might have seen even bloodier places in other worlds, this ghost place was so eerie that Ying didn't want to stay any longer.
The two of them left here quickly.
However, what the two of them didn't know was that not long after they left, a team of witches came here to perform a ritual of exorcism and salvation.
The thunder-attributed divine eye on the chest of the leading high-ranking priestess shone brightly.
"Well~ Didn't they say that things got out of control here last night and nearly a hundred people died? Where are the wronged souls? Why are there so many missing?" the witch asked curiously.
"Teacher, look here, it seems someone is passing by." said another senior witch.
The witch of the Eye of God nodded and said, "It seems that a primordial god passed by here. The shock of the elemental aura caused many wronged souls to disappear directly."
"Continue the ceremony and help the remaining souls to be liberated."
"Yes." The witches took out their magic tools and chanted spells to start clearing the foul air accumulated around them. They also helped to liberate the vengeful spirits and let them return to the earth veins.
Then several of the priestesses sent out to look around.
However, those who were separated were all lower-level priestesses, and they all did chores for the senior priestesses.
"Teacher! The blood lilies here are growing abnormally." said a lower-level witch.
These blood dendrobiums are grown by the shrine here. Blood dendrobium is a relatively rare alchemical material and medicinal ingredient, with the attributes of blood and soul.
Although it is often regarded as an ominous object in folk legends, in the eyes of the shrine maidens, blood dendrobium is a good medicine. With just a little processing, it can become a powerful analgesic. After certain treatments, it can also be made into soothing incense and strengthening decoctions.
It is a precious herb with many uses.
At the general meeting of all shrines on the rational use of resources held by Narujin Taisha two hundred years ago, it was stipulated that shrines in various places should plant a certain amount of blood dendrobium in non-safe areas to ensure the overall production of Inazuma blood dendrobium.
After two hundred years of exploration, the witches actually know how the blood calamus should grow.
However, once the blood dendrobium shows abnormal growth, it means that there must be other abnormal conditions.
After checking the surrounding land, the witch of the Eye of God said, "First, pick the blood lily, and then carefully dig up the surrounding soil."
"Yes." Several priestesses who had learned the earth-control spell borrowed the power of the great monster (Blade-Rending Rock) guarding this place, and soon the soil was turned over.
A skeleton with torn clothes appeared in front of many witches.
The Eye of God witch took out a series of divine machines from the Eye of God space, scanned the skeleton and said, "It's the swordsman patriarch of the Qinghai family who disappeared four years ago. It seems that it is because he was murdered that the blood lilies here are growing so luxuriantly."
"Why didn't anyone notice the abnormal growth of Dendrobium here before..."
"Forget it. I have already notified the Qinghai family and the town magistrate. Leave two people behind, and the rest will continue to clean up the filthy air and evil spirits around."
"Yes." The witches nodded in agreement.
The town magistrate's men came very quickly on horseback. Although the Keihi family was a small family, they were very close to here, so their arrival was not considered late.
After introducing a detective samurai who was said to be very capable of solving cases to Keikai and the town magistrate, the shrine maidens continued with their work.
After collecting the remains of the swordsman, Keihime and the town magistrate Chong left the danger zone. It was about to get dark, and those powerful groups did not dare to attack the shrine maidens, but they did not care much about them.
The two energetic groups that came here to fight today apparently discovered the witch.
So under the orders of the two bosses, the younger brothers hurried forward to help, and with the help of the energetic group, the witches successfully completed their work in the first half of the night.
Not only did he quickly clear out the evil spirits and foul air, but he also maintained the intimidating barrier in the danger zone.
The intimidation barrier is the thing that makes Paimon feel creepy. It is meant to scare ignorant passers-by so that they don't stay in this place.
But for these energetic groups that are already accustomed to fighting in dangerous areas, the purpose of this barrier is to train the courage of the newcomers.
Ying and Paimon pointed at the map of the study tour challenge.
Obviously planning their own route, they decided to go to the main island of Narukami Island after leaving Renren Island.
They also found out that only by challenging a big dojo master could they have a chance of meeting General Thunder.
But the big dojos are not easy to challenge, for example, some big dojos, most of which can see the Thunder General, require you to pass through a high-level dojo in a certain area (where the swordsman is in charge)
The Renlian Island area is considered to be relatively good. The place is relatively small, so there are many high-level dojos.
The reason why few people choose to complete the game here is that the dojos here are generally strong, there are many swordsmen, and you can often face great swordsmen in ordinary dojos. It is very easy for ordinary scholars to get stuck at a certain level when they come here.
However, the traveler Ying is obviously not an ordinary person.
So she is already preparing to challenge the dojo in Inazuma Castle.
They planned to spend one and a half months to clear Renlian Island. In the following time, excluding the time for sightseeing and traveling, one high-level dojo a day was just right.
In addition, they heard that the scenery of Renren Shrine is beautiful, so they plan to spend half a month traveling to Renren Shrine to learn recipes.
It has to be said that ever since her brother told her, "We always have enough time," Ying's travel pace has slowed down a lot.
If it were before, I would never go traveling for half a month or something.
