Chapter 131: Why Are There Two People Who Are the Same?
"Looks like Nahida is telling the truth."
Paimon was silent for a moment and said, because as soon as Nahida's murder came out, she was beaten, and Nahida used her own experience to test that she didn't use other abilities.
Kamisato Ayaka exclaimed, "What an amazing ability. ”
"It seems that the fortune of the big murderer still can't be changed at will." Nahida muttered, then threw a [Daji Tian] out of the lottery holder again.
"Congratulations, Traveler." Kamisato Ayaka had been shocked once, and she had become much more immune to Nahida's actions.
The owner of the Shimizu stall congratulated: "The luck of several guests is too powerful, with such good luck, no matter what you want to do, you will definitely be able to get your wish." ”
Paimon smiled and agreed, "Yes, I hope we can have good luck in the coming days!" ”
After saying that, Kamisato Ayaka led everyone out of the lottery stall.
"Nahida, what's going on, why isn't the shopkeeper surprised by your behavior?" Paimon asked curiously as he walked.
When Paimon asked Nahida what to say, Kamisato Ayaka couldn't help but prick up her ears.
"This, it's just a little trick, I just blocked the stall owner's perception of us, and he didn't know about the things I did." Nahida explained.
"I see." Paimon understood, because Liyue Skynet almost had this effect.
"This is a snack stall, there are a lot of Inazuma's specialties, what do you want to eat, I'll buy it!" Kamisato Ayaka looked at the food stall in front of her and said to everyone.
"Every food here looks delicious, wow... Can I have both? ”
As soon as Paimon finished speaking, Ying rolled his eyes.
Kamisato Ayaka smiled and said, "Hahaha, of course you can." ”
"But if you buy too much, it's a waste, let's try them one by one!" Paimon said, pointing to the three-color dumplings on the stall and continuing, "Ayaka, I want the three-color dumplings over there. ”
Kamisato Ayaka smiled at Paimon and smiled dotingly, "Okay, okay." ”
"I want that pink cake." Ying said.
"It looks delicious, too! There's also the thing over there called bird's egg roast, which I want to eat too. ”
"Nahida, there is something other than seafood here, would you like to eat something?" Kamisato Ayaka asked Nahida.
"That, I also want that three-color dumpling, it looks good." Nahida said, pointing to the three-colored dumplings.
Kamisato Ayaka also pointed to the pink cake and said to the stall owner, "Then, I want this scarlet cherry cake too." ”
The stall owner smiled and said, "No problem, I'll be here right away!" ”
"Hmm, it's so sweet, and it's sticky."
Nahida frowned and ate the three-colored dumplings, although, but a little sticky, Nahida didn't like this feeling.
"May I ask why Nahida doesn't like seafood?" Kamisato Ayaka wondered.
"Those seafoods, they were born in the infinite darkness, and they grew up in the depths of the ocean that I didn't know. If you want me to eat them, the slippery touch, the fishy smell that can't be washed away, is like trying to swallow a dirty cloud. Nahida said with a bitter face.
Kamisato Ayaka: "."
"Traveler, Paimon, how are you eating?"
Listening to Kamisato Ayaka's words, Paimon swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Well, it's delicious, it tastes good." ”
Yingzhen said, "Well, this pink cake is not bad. ”
Kamisato Ayaka echoed: "I also think so, the scarlet cherry cake is delicious.!" ”
"Right? This is the specialty of our stall, and the popularity is high. The stall owner replied proudly when he heard the comments of the two.
Paimon finished eating the dim sum in his hand and said to the stall owner, "I want to have another one!" ”
"It may be a bit presumptuous, but I would like to ask how this kind of dim sum is made?"
Hearing Kamisato Ayaka's words, Ying ate the scarlet cherry cake for a while, and then continued to eat it as if nothing happened.
"Do you want to learn? Hahaha, yes, wait a minute, I'll copy a recipe for you. ”
Paimon excitedly said, "It's a new recipe!" ”
With the new recipes, Ying will be able to cook for her, and although she has rarely cooked her own food since she arrived in Liyue, she will still take out her own utensils and cook her own food when she is exploring in the wild.
Kamisato Ayaka heard the food stall owner's hearty answer, and asked with some confusion, "Huh?" Is it really okay to share the recipe with me directly? No, not trade secrets... Something like that..."
The stall owner explained, "You gave the owner of the Munan Pavilion an exotic recipe, right? ”
"Hahaha, I'm an old friend with her, and we usually learn cooking skills together."
"This recipe is like me thanking you on behalf of my friends, take it."
“… Thank you, and I will definitely learn how to make this delicious snack when I go back. Kamisato Ayaka said seriously after taking the recipe.
"Those two guests over there will take a copy too, right? It's delicious! The owner of the food stall copied a copy of Yingye, handed it over and said.
"Thank you boss!"
"Nahida, would you like one?" Ying asked after taking the recipe.
"No, the tassel shouldn't have made it for me." Nahida said with a frown.
Paimon said, "Nahida, you have a recipe, you can make it yourself." ”
"Oh, then I'll try." Nahida was persuaded by the two to take a recipe.
Ying lowered her head and looked at the practice of the scarlet cherry blossom cake, looked at the main ingredient of the scarlet cherry cake thoughtfully, and then thought of the cherry blossom tree at the Narukami Shrine, anyway, the cherry blossoms there are falling every day, so collect 100 million points, Yae Miko shouldn't mind, right?
"The feeling of making delicious food with your own hands, not to mention how good it is, you must try it."
Kamisato Ayaka bowed her head and said, "Hmm! ”
"When I learn how to make this snack... Can I ask Traveler and Paimon to try it? ”
"Okay, okay, then let's talk about it!" Paimon happily replied.
Ying: "."
Ying wanted to say something, but with Kamisato Ayaka's expectant expression, it was difficult to say anything else, after all, she was a very good friend.
"Then wait for your good news." Ying finally said vaguely.
"Okay, I'll do my best!" Kamisato Ayaka said seriously.
When everyone left the food stall after they were full, it was already late, and the small stall owners were not ready to close the stall because Kamisato Ayaka had not left yet.
"I didn't expect it to be so long, it's getting late." Nahida looked at the bright moon hanging high in the sky and whispered.
"Yes, but even though the festival is coming to an end, it's still a lot of fun, and I love it!" Paimon chimed in.
Ying looked at the excited Paimon and complained, "I think you like to eat, right?" ”
"Hehe, it's pretty much the same, and the festival is also very interesting!" Paimon was exposed by Ying, scratching his head carefully.
Kamisato Ayaka walked ahead and listened to Paimon and Ying's conversation, and chimed in, "Well, I think so too. ”
"It's great to be able to join you at the festival today."
"Me too." Listening to Kamisato Ayaka's words, Ying echoed.
"Hehe, yes, then I'm relieved." Kamisato Ayaka said with a smile.
"Let's go to the booth in front and have a look." Kamisato Ayaka said, pointing to a stall not far away.
Paimon replied, "Well, let's go check it out." ”
"This is a booth to buy Ema. The people of Inazuma draw or write their wishes on a pentagonal wooden board called Ema and pray that it will be fulfilled. Kamisato Ayaka led everyone to the booth and explained.
"It sounds a bit like Liyue's sea lanterns, they're all props for prayer."
Nahida looked curiously at the many pentagonal planks hanging from a wooden shelf, and wrote that her wish could really come true. Although it was fake, Nahida still wanted to try it, because she watched the past in Ying's sight at the last Lantern Festival, and she didn't write down her wish by hand.
"How many people, do you need Ema? Take advantage of the last days of the festival to make your precious wishes! The owner of the Ema stall suggested when he saw Kamisato Ayaka and a few people coming.
Paimon said, "Let's try it?" It's a lot of fun! ”
"However, if you still want to write and draw, I don't need to... I ate too much just now, and now I'm dizzy, and I don't want to do anything that requires too much wisdom."
"Since Paimon doesn't need wisdom, I'll take your wisdom away next time." Nahida said with a smile when she heard Paimon's words.
"No, you can't think about it, what should I do if wisdom takes me? Nahida, you can't do that! ”
Hearing Nahida's words, Paimon hurriedly refused, saying that if the god of wisdom took away his wisdom, wouldn't he become a fool?
"Well, yes, Paimon doesn't have wisdom, so how can he be taken away." Seeing Paimon's serious look on her guard, Nahida said with a smile.
"Well, that's rude, how can you say I'm not wise? You may be wise, but you can't say that about me! Paimon was about to reveal Nahida's identity, but considering that the stall owner was still here, he quickly changed the subject.
Ying listened to the conversation between the two and quipped to Paimon, "Paimon, you believe that Nahida will take away your wisdom, this kind of look is impossible, right?" So, Nahida said that you have no wisdom, and I agree with it. ”
"Well, you, you, so angry, I decided to ignore you for a minute, no, huh!" Seeing both of them make fun of themselves, Paimon angrily stamped his feet in the air.
"You're on good terms." Kamisato Ayaka said enviously.
"It's good that it doesn't matter, Ayaka, you see that the Traveler and Nahida are bullying me together." Paimon grumbled angrily at Kamisato Ayaka.
Kamisato Ayaka didn't take Paimon's topic, because in her opinion, although she and Traveler were good friends verbally, she still couldn't do it to the same extent as Paimon and Ying, in other words, they weren't familiar enough.
"Nahida, do you want to make a wish?" Kamisato Ayaka turned to Nahida and asked.
"Mm-hmm, I'm going to make a wish too." Nahida said excitedly.
"Boss, three Ema." Kamisato Ayaka heard Nahida's reply and said to Yoshikawa, the stall owner of the Ema stall.
"Okay, three Ema, bring them to you!"
After Kamisato Ayaka took Ema, she handed one to Nahida and said, "Nahida, give it." ”
"Thank you." Nahida thanked him after taking the ema.
"You're welcome, but speaking of which, I want to thank you."
Kamisato Ayaka handed another Ema to Ying and asked, "Have you figured out what you want to do?" ”
"Well, I haven't thought about it yet, I want to think about it." Ying frowned and thought after taking Ema, what is her wish now?
Ying: "."
"Huh? Haven't thought about it yet? I've already thought of my wishes. ”
"Wait, right away, my wish will be thought of right away." Listening to Kamisato Ayaka's words, Ying hurriedly replied.
After a few times of contemplation, Ying finally finalized her wish.
So, Ying crossed her waist and raised her head in Kamisato Ayaka's sight, as if she had done something amazing instead of making a wish.
"Okay, I've got it figured."
Kamisato Ayaka: "."
"Ask the two of you to present your wishes in the form of words or drawings on the ema, and when you are done, you can hang them on the ema stand next to you." Hearing the two of them make a good wish, Yoshikawa, the owner of the Ema stall, reminded him on the side.
Paimon said in surprise, "It turns out that it's going to be shown." ”
"Okay, Ying, let's show everyone a hand!"
After Paimon finished speaking, Ying and Kamisato Ayaka began to draw and write on the ema, and unlike Kamisato Ayaka who portrayed Ema with an expectant expression, Ying was depicting Ema with a blank face, while Nahida on the side was frowning and writing something.
After Kamisato Ayaka and Ying finished writing, Kamisato Ayaka took the first step to hang Ema on the Ema frame and said, "That's it." ”
"Can I see your Ema?"
Ying handed the Ema in his hand over and said, "No problem. ”
Kamisato Ayaka: "."
The painting depicts a person standing surrounded by stars, and it seems that the person in the painting is herself.
"What's this?" Ayaka held the omamori and wondered.
"As you can see, these are the stars." Ying replied.
"Stars?"
"Yes, my goal is to travel the sea of stars, so this is my ultimate wish." Ying replied.
Paimon scratched his head and said, "Aren't you looking for your brother?" ”
When Ying heard Paimon's words, she glanced at her and said, "My brother is here, what else are you looking for, of course it's my own wishes that matter now." ”
Paimon: "."
"The sea of stars? It's really an ideal wish, I wish you to achieve it soon, and I will pray for you here. Hearing Ying's words, Kamisato Ayaka didn't know why she was a little lost.
"Ayaka, did you draw the castle tower?" Paimon said as he looked at Kamisato Ayaka's Ema.
Kamisato Ayaka explained, "Yes, my wish is that everyone in Inazuma is safe and happy, and that family and friends are in good health. ”
"I hope this wish will come true..."
Ying replied seriously: "It will be realized." ”
"Well, I'll take your good word."
"By the way, Nahida hasn't finished drawing yet?" Paimon looked at Nahida holding a piece of Ema and wondered.
"It's done, it's just that, it feels a little different." Nahida said, handing out her Ema.
"How is it different, let me see, this is a tree, there are three people underneath, the pattern from left to right should be stars, moon and sun, right? The little one in the middle should be Nahida, with the moon painted on her head, which you told us before. ”
"The one on the left is the tassel, why is there a star on the top of the tassel, didn't you say the tassel is the sun? But who is the one on the right, it looks like a tassel, but I feel that she is not a tassel, and why is the sun painted on the top of her head? Paimon asked, looking at Nahida's drawing of the Guardian.
"Paimon, how did you recognize that? I've painted the same thing, and I told you before that the tassel is like the sun in my heart, so why do you think it's the tassel with the stars on the top of your head? Nahida asked curiously.
"I don't know, it's just that I feel like this, I feel that the one on the left is the tassel, and Ying is the same as me, right?" Paimon said, turning his head to look at Ying.
"Hmm." Although Nahida's drawing was a bit abstract, it could tell her who it was at a glance.
"Yes, you guys feel right, the tassel on the left, I don't know why, but I know it's her, why the stars?" Nahida touched her chin in thought.
"And how did you draw it?"
"I was thinking that I wanted to be with her all the time, so my hands seemed to start moving on their own, as if something was driving me, and when I drew them, I realized that there were more people, but I did feel that they were all very important people to me, very, very important."
Nahida said, involuntarily putting her hand on her heart and saying, "These two people obviously look exactly the same, but they give me the feeling that they are not the same person, but they are obviously two different people, but the warmth they give me is the same?" ”
"Well, I'm so weird, Nahida will ask the tassel then, right?" Paimon said, scratching his head.
"She shouldn't tell me this question about tassels, because she told me before that you can only feel the beauty of the world when you see it with your own eyes."
"Tassel is an old riddler, he doesn't say anything, he just makes us guess." Paimon said unhappily with his arms folded.
"No, the tassel is good, there is no better person in my heart than the tassel. I had a long, long dream before, probably hundreds of years old, in which I observed the world, secretly entered people's dreams from the dream, and learned about the outside knowledge, but the dream was not real. ”
"I watched and watched until one day a gentle voice woke me up." Nahida said this, her emerald green eyes shining with a reminiscing glow.
"She said, it's dawn, you should wake up."
"I don't understand it, but the sound is tasseled, right?" Paimon said, scratching his head.
"Probably right? I opened my eyes blankly, and I was locked in a green container in the Pure Shrine anyway, it was the first time I had been woken from my sleep, and it was also the first time I felt a little disgusted with the situation I was in. ”
"And then?" Because she had been to Sumeru, Ying also knew a little about Nahida's experience, but she didn't expect so many things to happen on the way.
"Later, when the voice came to me in my head, it talked to me, and shared with me something I didn't know, and that was when I woke up and felt that the world wasn't so scary."
"However, no matter what the voice said, I couldn't feel the emotion she wanted to convey, so I could only listen silently."
"We talked for a long time, for a long time, and I almost forgot the passage of time, but I was not alone at all, on the contrary, my heart was still hot, and now I know that it is a kind of emotion called warmth."
"Until one day, the voice disappeared again, and one day, two days, a month, two months, I started to get scared, and that was the first time I felt the emotion of being afraid. No matter how much I called her in my head, she didn't give me a response. ”
"At that time, I wondered if I was going to continue with my previous life, so I was timid and cowardly, and I began to fall asleep again to escape this emotion of gaining and losing." Nahida said slowly.
"Nahida" listens to Nahida's story, and Paimon feels a little sour psychologically.
Nahida suddenly turned her head and looked at Ying and Paimon and said, "Until that day, when I was observing in Sumeru, I found you. ”
