Genshin Impact : Eerie Teyvat-Chapter 134: Ch : Baizhu and Changsheng
Chapter 134 - Ch 134 : Baizhu and Changsheng
When Yelan summoned the Millelith to temporarily settle Keqing, the group quickly rushed toward Bubu Pharmacy.
However, by the time they arrived, they found a crowd gathered both inside and outside the pharmacy, all fervently discussing something...
Moreover, Baizhu appeared to have gone out, leaving only the pharmacist Gui inside.
Su Yuan and the others briefly spoke with Gui to understand the situation and finally learned what had just happened...
Then, Su Yuan and Chongyun followed Yelan and hurried to Chen Xiang's home.
"As expected, Baizhu has already been corrupted by the Eerie," Yelan said with a frown.
The situation in Liyue was far worse than she had imagined...
"No, I actually think Baizhu is fine. The one corrupted by the Eerie is the white snake on him—Changsheng," Su Yuan concluded after hearing Gui's account.
Baizhu had been acting completely normal—if anything, it was Changsheng who had been exhibiting unusual behavior...
Moreover, the secret art that transferred vitality and illness, the "Serpent-Earring Dragon-Towing Technique," was actually performed by Changsheng herself...
"Tch... These Eerie things really do seep in everywhere, don't they?" Yelan said, her voice grim.
"Su Yuan, when you told me before that monsters—or even other creatures—could be corrupted and controlled by the Eerie, it seems you were absolutely right..."
What Su Yuan was worried about now was: if Changsheng really had been corrupted by the Eerie, how were they supposed to fight her?
She had an almost bug-level ability to transfer vitality—how could anyone go against that?
And more importantly... did Baizhu even realize that something was wrong with Changsheng?
As he ran, Su Yuan thought through the situation in Liyue.
So far, every adeptus they had encountered—including Zhongli—seemed to have completely lost both their memories and their powers...
And then there was Xiao—although he still seemed to retain his memories and power, no one knew who he was fighting or what situation he was caught up in...
And Guoba—Xiangling's companion, who was actually the stove god, Marchosius—he had also gone missing.
No one knew where he'd gone, and that was another unstable variable...
As for those who had already been confirmed to be corrupted by the Eerie: there was Jiang Xue from Wangshu Inn, Xingqiu of the Feiyun Commerce Guild, Ningguang in the Jade Chamber, and now possibly even Changsheng, the white snake on Baizhu...
Today had only just begun, and Su Yuan had already used two of his limited rewind chances...
With only a few of these reliable time-rewind chances left, could he really handle all the crises unfolding in Liyue?
.........
Baizhu arrived at Chen Xiang's home.
As he looked at Hongdou—lifeless, pale-faced, and lying motionless on the bed—his heart was filled with a mix of emotions, but he had also begun to piece together an answer...
"Doctor Baizhu..."
Though Chen Xiang had calmed down slightly by now, her tears still flowed uncontrollably as she looked at her daughter's body.
"Even though my reason tells me that you would never do something like this..."
"But the facts are right in front of me, and I can't help but believe it..."
"Dou Dou was perfectly fine during the day yesterday. But, following your instructions, she drank the medicine you prescribed before bed..."
"This morning, I noticed something was wrong—her consciousness was fuzzy, her whole body trembling..."
"And then... I watched my own child die in my arms..."
"Miss Chen Xiang... may I excuse myself for a moment?"
Baizhu looked at Chen Xiang and spoke slowly.
"I will take responsibility for this... and give both you and Dou Dou an explanation."
Chen Xiang nodded.
Then Baizhu, taking Changsheng with him, left the room.
Once outside, Baizhu looked at Changsheng with a serious expression and asked:
"Dou Dou didn't die from her congenital illness..."
"She died because her life force was taken away—drained—and many illnesses were injected into her."
"In the final moments of her life, she must have been in terrible pain..."
"Changsheng... what exactly is going on?"
"Why... would you do such a thing?"
Facing Baizhu's questioning, Changsheng's expression showed a hint of regret...
"I didn't expect you to notice so quickly..."
"I only drained most of her life force, then transferred a bit of the illnesses from your body into hers..."
"Children's bodies are just too fragile. Who would've thought she wouldn't be able to withstand even that..."
"Changsheng!"
Baizhu's expression was filled with fury.
He couldn't believe that the Changsheng he had always trusted would say such things—would do something so cruel...
"No! You're not Changsheng at all!"
"Oh Baizhu, what nonsense are you talking about..."
"Changsheng" spoke as she coiled tighter around Baizhu's neck, lifting her head to meet his gaze.
Her serpent eyes had turned pitch black and blood red, with a foul-smelling red liquid constantly seeping from them...
"'Changsheng' flicked out her tongue and licked Baizhu's cheek, speaking softly:
"If I'm not Changsheng... then who else could be?"
"I'm doing all this for your own good, Baizhu..."
"You want to develop a true elixir of immortality, to achieve eternal life—yet that is completely impossible. It simply can't be done..."
"Only through my method—constantly seizing the life force of others and transferring your illnesses away—can it be done."
"Only with my help, Baizhu, can you truly achieve immortality..."
"You're not Changsheng at all..."
Baizhu let out a quiet sigh, then, without hesitation, grabbed "Changsheng" with his hand and forcefully yanked her from his body.
Facing her directly, Baizhu spoke:
"The real Changsheng knows that developing an elixir of immortality and seeking eternal life is not my ultimate goal..."
"My true goal is to eliminate the world's suffering and ensure no one else dies young because of this curse..."
"Changsheng... I hereby unilaterally revoke our contract."
"I cannot let you keep using this power to harm others anymore...'"
Hearing that Baizhu intended to sever their contract, "Changsheng" suddenly looked flustered. freewebnσvel.cøm
She couldn't help but cry out:
"Baizhu! What do you mean by that?!"
"Have you forgotten? Without the contract with you, I'll die very quickly!"
"And without my help regulating your body, with your current condition—how long do you think you can survive?!"
"I won't allow you to abandon me... to leave me!!!"
As she shouted, a surge of eerie energy erupted from "Changsheng", breaking free from Baizhu's grasp.
She then swiftly slithered back onto Baizhu, coiling tightly around his neck!
Baizhu instantly felt his neck constrict—while it wasn't enough to suffocate him to death, it was still unbearably painful...
And just then, this exact scene was witnessed by Su Yuan and his companions, who had just arrived.
"Baizhu!"
Su Yuan cried out in shock—but right beside him, an eerie aura suddenly burst forth from Chongyun as well!
"Chongyun" lifted his head, looking toward "Changsheng" coiled around Baizhu, and slowly spoke:
"Ahahaha... I can smell it—I can see it..."
"Eerie... prepare to die!"
