The Homeless Man of Teyvat

"Thank you."

Chen Tianfeng clasped his fists to Ying, Yae Shenzi, and then he walked up the steps without hesitation under the gaze of everyone. He stretched out his hand, covered it with a gray-white film, and gently pressed it on the trunk of the God Sakura Tree.

He closed his eyes, his mind moved slightly, and the disguised power and perception spread from his fingertips. He wanted to use the relationship between the God Sakura Tree and the earth veins to really "take a look" at the earth veins of Teyvat.

"Huh?"

Chen Tianfeng opened his eyes, his eyes were surprised, he retracted his hand, looked at the gray-white film, and then looked at the God Sakura Tree. After a few seconds of hesitation, he pressed his palm on the God Sakura Tree again.

But unlike last time, this time Chen Tianfeng closely watched the changes in the God Sakura Tree, and his black eyes turned into gray-white snake pupils.

Ying noticed the changes in Chen Tianfeng, and the palm holding Yae Shenzi tightened unconsciously.

Hua Sanli noticed Ying's nervousness, thought for a moment, quietly took Ying's other hand, and whispered to comfort her: "Don't worry, the God Sakura Tree is normal now, and it's not injured."

Hua Sanli was born from the earth veins and the roots of the God Sakura Tree. Even though he has become a new ghost now, he can slightly sense the state of the God Sakura Tree.

Ying felt relieved, looked back and nodded to Hua Sanli, and Hua Sanli smiled back.

Is it really like this... Chen Tianfeng narrowed his eyes, and stared at the contact between his palm and the trunk with his gray-white snake pupils. Under the stimulation of the gray-white film, the God Sakura Tree actually showed a vague sense of illusion.

It was as if the God Sakura Tree did not exist.

To be more precise, it does not exist [at this moment], and it is not complete and real. It was planted in the [future] and sprouted in the [past]. Until that critical node arrived, the God Sakura Tree and the present world were separated by an invisible "membrane".

"Tsk, another trick of time, I hate this kind of thing the most..."

Chen Tianfeng muttered inaudibly, retracted his palm and shook it, turned around and looked at the people who were staring at him nervously, curiously or blankly, and spread his hands: "No, I came at the wrong time, I was rejected."

In fact, it's not impossible. If he intervened forcefully instead of the gentle means just now, then no matter whether it's time or not, everything is equal in front of death, and no one can stop him from using the God Cherry Tree as a springboard to spy on the secrets of the earth veins.

But in this way, the God Cherry Tree is dead, and death came with a grin before it was planted.

Not only did it violate Chen Tianfeng's promise, but the chain reaction it brought was really too big, so Chen Tianfeng had no choice but to give up.

"I came at the wrong time?" Paimon scratched his hair, with a clear look of confusion in his eyes: "What does this mean?"

"It's a bit difficult to explain..." Chen Tianfeng thought for a while and said: "Well, you can understand that the current sacred cherry tree is not real, but a reflection of the past time and space. When it is planted in the future, it will return to reality."

"Ah?"

The confusion in the eyes of the little mascot became clearer.

Ying was thoughtful, and looked at the sacred cherry tree with a little surprise.

Hanasari and Yae Shinko frowned. In their opinion, the sacred cherry tree was clearly real, so how could it be a "reflection of the past", and "being planted in the future" was even more incredible.

The sacred cherry was planted in the future... Ying's expression was suddenly stunned, and the puppet's steady heartbeat also became rapid at this moment. She suddenly remembered something, and her eyes swept from Hanasari and Chen Tianfeng and then retracted, her eyes changed, as if she was struggling for something.

Don't rush, take it step by step. If, if there is a turnaround, if there is hope, you must first sort out Inazuma and not let her down... Ying pursed her lips, finally calmed down, and exhaled gently.

Chen Tianfeng walked down the steps, stood in front of Ying, and coughed: "Ahem, Ying, I have good news and bad news here, which one do you want to hear first?"

"..." Ying was silent for a few seconds, and tentatively asked: "What's the good news?"

"The God Sakura Tree is not damaged. Look, it is very healthy now. In other words, even if I try again, it will not have any problems. This is a fact after practice."

Ying's eyes gradually became stunned: "... again?"

"This is the bad news... I will try again, after the God Sakura Tree is planted."

Chen Tianfeng tried to make his expression as sincere as possible, and looked at the purple-haired woman with black eyes: "I continue to guarantee that the God Sakura Tree will not have any problems because of me."

"..."

Ying was silent again, and looked at Chen Tianfeng, and clearly saw a little embarrassment in her black eyes. She blinked, suddenly smiled, and nodded: "I agree."

Just right, if her expectation is correct, Chen Tianfeng will indeed need to touch the divine cherry in the future.

Kill two birds with one stone.

...

Inazuma Castle,

Kamiri Ayaka returned to the mansion and asked Thomas to find Kamisato Ayane to return to the mansion, saying that she had received important information from the Narugami Taisha Shrine, but the matter was serious and she couldn't make up her mind.

"What did the chief priest say?"

Kamiri Ayane was sitting opposite her sister. She glanced at Thomas, who was kneeling not far away after dismissing the servants, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Did you get into trouble?"

And it seems that the trouble was not small, otherwise Ayaka would not have such an extremely guilty expression, and Thomas would not be so serious.

Kamisato Ayaka had some guesses, sighed, raised his hand to rub his sister's hair, and said softly: "Tell me, how big a disaster you have caused, let's see if your brother can help you bear it."

"Brother..."

Kamisato Ayaka's heart suddenly ached, and she quickly lowered her head, holding back the tears that were about to overflow, and whispered: "I met the Lord of the Ogosho at Narukami Taisha."

Kamisato Ayato's eyes moved slightly and he breathed a sigh of relief. Lord Ogosho reappears, and I think Inazuma's chaos will soon end, and Sanfengxing will inevitably face a reckoning, but this has nothing to do with the law-abiding Kamisato family.

This is obviously good news, but why does Ayaka look like this?

Kamisato Ayato was puzzled. Some guesses suddenly popped up in his mind, and he rejected them one by one.

"The Imperial Palace Master and the Palace Secretary summoned me together."

Ayaka Kamisato lowered her head, not daring to look into her brother's eyes: "The Lord Palace Secretary said that he should write down what the Kamisato family has done during this period, and submit it to Lord Palace Secretary after he returns to Inazuma Castle. ”

"What did the Kamisato family do..."

Kamisato Ayato frowned and thought. Judging from Ayaka's appearance, Miyaji-sama probably didn't want what the Kamisato family did, but what Ayaka did... But what can she do?

He suddenly remembered the conversation between their brother and sister not long ago about the resistance of Kaiji Island. An idea flashed and his heart skipped a beat. He looked at his sister who had her head lowered in front of him and said in a dry tone: "Ayaka, could you... He still has contact with Haiji Island and even provided help? "

Kamisato Ayato knows his sister very well. She is soft-hearted and kind-hearted, but also has a stubborn temper. Sometimes it is useless even if others persuade her to do something she believes in. She will not do it openly, but will secretly try it in private.

So maybe she really saw how pitiful Haiji Island was, so she secretly helped them.

And there must be someone among them who will follow her wishes, make suggestions for her, and eliminate all difficulties.

Kamisato Ayato glared at Toma, turned his gaze back to Kamisato Ayaka, and took a deep breath: "What have you done, tell me in detail one by one, no hiding anything!"

He paused and added: "And what the Imperial Palace Master and the Palace Secretary have said to you, please tell them in detail. It is best to imitate the tone."

Providing aid to the Kaijijima rebels is no different from betraying Ina's wife or betraying the shogun. However, Ayaka's ability to come back alive and even bring back a message from Miyaji-sama means that the Kamisato family still has a glimmer of hope!

The survival of the Kamisato family depends on whether he can capture this ray of life given by the Lord Palace Secretary!
