As soon as they arrived at the cave, they heard Paimon's crying voice.
"What's wrong with you? Wake up quickly, don't leave me..."
"I'm the ranger here, what happened?"
Tinari hurriedly ran in and saw two unconscious people.
Next to the unconscious man squatted a crying little white guy.
Hypatia, the original owner of the cave, was squatting in the corner at a loss, with an unknown creature next to her staring at her eagerly.
Seeing them, the aqua-blue elf instantly shifted its target and stood in front of the fainted people, watching them warily.
Tinari did not immediately check on the two fainted people, but looked at Hypatia.
"what happened?"
"I just lit the incense and they fainted..."
Hypatia was also aggrieved.
She had been using Lingxianxiang for so long without any problems, but the two of them fainted immediately after smelling it.
Tinari held his forehead helplessly, "It is true that Lingxiang Incense has no effect on most people, but there will be a very small number of people who are easily stimulated by it. These two people must have been temporarily comatose after being stimulated."
Pamon looked at Tinari with tearful eyes, "Really? Will they be okay?"
"let me check."
Tinari tried to get closer to the two fainted people, but Gudong stood in front of him, looking wary.
Tinari spread his empty hands to show that he meant no harm.
"I'm the ranger here. I won't hurt them. Let me check on them, okay?"
"Gu——"
Gudong made way for him, but still stayed beside Jiang Bai to protect his master.
Tinari glanced at Gudong twice.
Although this creature has never been seen before, it is very protective of the Lord.
Unlike the little guy next to him, he has completely lost his bearings.
Tinari first squatted next to Jiang Bai, checked his breathing, and then opened his eyelids to take a look.
Sora on the side did the same thing.
After checking it, he was relieved.
"It's no big deal, Ke Lai, help me take them back to Huachengguo and give them some medicine."
It was inconvenient for him to take two people with him, so he had to ask Ke Lai to help.
"Okay, Master."
Kelai nodded and squatted down nervously.
Tinari lifted Kong up and put him on Kelai's back. Kong's weight was not heavy, but Kelai still staggered when he stood up and almost fell to the ground.
"I'll do it."
Although it is inconvenient to bring two people with you at the same time, that's all.
"Master, I can do this!" Kelai shook his head, not wanting to become a useless burden.
Seeing them worrying about how to transport the two of them, Gudong tilted his head, turned into a slime, came under Jiang Bai like invisible water, and then slowly grew in size, completely lifting Jiang Bai up.
Tinari looked at Gudong in surprise. This little guy's IQ was much higher than that of ordinary creatures, and he could actually change.
It's a pity that he majored in botany, otherwise he really wanted to do research.
"Looks like there's no need to worry."
Tinari took Sora from Kelai's back and carried him out of the cave.
Ke Lai led the way, Gudong carried Jiang Bai on his back, and followed step by step.
Paimon stopped crying, he just kept asking questions for fear that Kong wouldn't wake up.
"Why did they faint? They fainted suddenly. It scared me to death. I couldn't wake up... We just came to Xumi, why did such a thing happen? Oh, what if I can't wake up? What should I do? I’m really worried..."
Tinari felt a mosquito buzzing in his ear, which made him very annoyed.
He has good hearing, and the chattering sound in his ears makes his ears suffer even more.
He took out a hand and rubbed his ears, looking at Paimon seriously.
"If you keep making noise, I can't guarantee that he will wake up."
He said he just fainted, and this little guy made it look like he was dead.
Although caring can lead to chaos, this is really too much.
Paimon was frightened by the serious tone and leaned back, quickly covering his mouth.
The noisy voice disappeared, and Tinari felt that the world was pure.
Seeing that Paimon was too scared to speak along the way, Cole slowly explained:
"Master Tinari is a bit strict, but he is a very kind person."
Paimon, who had been silent all the way and was feeling uncomfortable, saw the little ranger girl talking to her and quickly started chatting.
"Are you all rangers?"
Although they didn't introduce themselves, Paimon had figured out their names along the way.
The ranger with pricked ears on his head and a big tail behind him was named Tinari, and the green-haired girl next to him was named Collet.
"Yeah, master, he is a very powerful ranger. I am a trainee ranger..."
When talking about himself, Kelai scratched his head in embarrassment.
Her eyes were bright and she looked at Paimon expectantly, "Are you the famous traveler?"
"Huh? How do you know?"
"Amber wrote to me, the blond traveler and his companion Paimon!"
When it comes to Amber, Kelai's eyes are particularly bright.
Tinari turned his head and looked a little surprised at these people.
Even though he was working as a ranger in Huachengguo away from the Order, he could not avoid hearing about the traveler's deeds.
Mondstadt, Liyue, Daozhu, this traveler is very famous in every country.
If I guessed correctly, the white-haired young man next to him should be Jiang Bai, who took the sword from Thunderbolt General Wu Xiang.
Hearing that the other party knew Amber, Paimon suddenly felt that the distance had been shortened a lot.
"So you know Amber, we are very good friends."
"I lived in Mondstadt for a while, and then returned to Xumi. I didn't expect you to come to Xumi..."
"So that's it, then we are really destined..."
All the way back to Huachengguo, the two comatose people showed no signs of waking up.
Especially Jiang Bai, who was on Gudong's back, slept soundly.
Jiang Bai felt that he had arrived in a special space.
This space was as dreamy as a dream, and a giant tree that seemed to penetrate the heaven and earth appeared in front of him.
This giant tree exudes a gleaming light and seems to be made of invisible energy.
There are vague murmurs echoing in this space.
"The world...forgot me..."
Jiang Bai didn't understand what he heard, and slowly approached the unknown tree.
His intuition told him that this might be the legendary [World Tree].
The world tree that records all the information in the world.
He walked forward and reached out to touch the branches of the World Tree, trying to find his own record in the World Tree.
A huge amount of information floods into the mind, and the unfiltered raw information is mixed and confusing, which can easily overwhelm the consciousness of ordinary people.
