Genshin Impact: The Great Evil Dragon’s Death System

Chapter 1155: Inazuma's Mask Culture

Kamisato Ayaka held Jing Fantian's hand and they walked on the street together.

The two men's attire was concealed, and passers-by on the street could not tell their identities.

After the fireworks party, the Inazuma people returned to their previous lives after a night of revelry.

Life has to go on, and everyone is trying to find a way out for themselves. Compared to the previous shogunate which had no hope, the current Inazuma has become much better.

Jing Fantian and Kamisato Ayaka stopped at a mask stall.

The old lady at the mask stall smiled and said, "Two guests, please buy a mask!"

Jing Fantian looked at the various masks on the mask stall, which were full of Inazuma colors. The masks were not of a single type, but of various styles, some were ugly in various ways, and some were ferocious in various ways, each with its own style.

Masks are a symbol of people's inner world and a very common cultural imagination in Teyvat.

A mask has different interpretations in different cultures.

For example, Batman’s half black mask. When you wear it in Mondstadt, you are Batman, a righteous man, but when you wear it in Liyue, you are the Whiplash.

"Why do your Inazuma masks have so many evil ghost colors?"

Kamisato Ayaka smiled and said, "Masks originated from hunting activities. Hunters at that time dressed up their masks in the shape of animals to get closer to their prey."

"Later, because of the war, the masks gradually became ghosts and gods, in order to scare their opponents from a psychological level."

"Today's masks all look like ghosts, gods, and strange beasts."

"Look at this..."

Kamisato Ayaka was a talented woman. She was the shrine's bugyo in charge of Inazuma's sacrificial ceremonies and ceremonial entertainments, and was the most popular bugyo among the people.

Therefore, Kamisato Ayaka is very familiar with the local customs of Inazuma.

Kamisato Ayaka pointed at a blue demon mask.

"This is a mask to ward off disasters. Legend has it that there is a kind of namasha ghost that will carry a knife and a large wooden barrel and knock on every door on New Year's Eve. They specifically scare those who don't like to work at home."

"This is the mask of the fox fairy. The Inazuma people have a special feeling for foxes. Because of Lord Yae, both the government and the people regard foxes as auspicious animals. Legend has it that wearing a fox mask will bring good luck to people."

"This is the Mask of the Mysterious Ones. Legend has it that wearing this mask will allow one to communicate with ghosts, ghosts, grudges, spirits, and yin and yang. Legend has it that its prototype is the psychic mask of the Onmyoji."

“This is the plane of discrimination…”

Kamisato Ayaka introduced the Inazuma-style masks one by one, and Jing Fantian watched with interest.

The old woman was also quite surprised. She didn't understand the meaning of these masks. She just knew a little about the psychological effects of these masks, but she couldn't give a more detailed explanation.

Most people only know how to use it, or how to make money with it. The knowledge contained in it is only of interest to scholars and wise men.

The last mask Kamisato Ayaka saw was a different one. It was brown in color, had a pair of antlers, and a ferocious face, like a dragon.

"This is?"

The old woman explained, "This is the Rock Dragon Mask. The legend of the Rock Dragon General has taken root in Inazuma. Whether it is positive or negative, the mask with the Rock Dragon color is the best-selling one among all the masks."

Kamisato Ayaka had a slight smile on her face. She didn't expect that Jing Fantian's rock dragon attribute had already taken root in Inazuma.

Jing Fantian said: "Linghua, I want this rock dragon mask, do you want one?"

"Let me see... Then I want this fox mask! Brahma, buy it for me."

"Good good!"

It’s not that Kamisato Ayaka doesn’t have money to buy a mask, but she likes the way Jing Fantian stays by her side and gives everything for her.

The old lady at the mask stall was not a robot. When she heard the words Linghua and Brahma, she immediately realized something.

She looked at Kamisato Ayaka with some uncertainty: "Princess Shiratana?"

Kamisato Ayaka put a finger to her lips, signaling the old woman not to tell anyone.

The old woman nodded, then showed a kind look and handed the white fox mask to Kamisato Ayaka: "Princess Shiratari, I will give this mask to you!"

"this--"

Kamisato Ayaka didn't want the old woman to get hurt.

"It's okay. The company's business owner has done a lot of good things for us. Everyone respects Kamisato family."

Jing Fantian advised from the side: "Linghua, accept it. This is what the people want."

"Okay...okay!"

Kamisato Ayaka accepted the egret mask.

Jing Fantian looked at the old woman with a smile: "Grandma, do you recognize me?"

The old woman responded with one sentence: "How many people on the island dare to call themselves Brahma?"

Jing Fantian was a little proud: "Since you know me, why don't you show some appreciation?"

The old man doesn't seem to know the rules. Since he knew his identity, why didn't he show any expression and give him the rock dragon mask on the stall?

Don’t be too angry, old man!

The old woman's face suddenly fell, and she explained the reason: "When you were still in power, you took my son and grandson to the deserted sea to mine. I don't have many years left to live, but I'm not afraid of you."

Jing Fantian felt a little embarrassed.

Kamisato Ayaka was covering her mouth and laughing secretly.

Jing Fantian was just a little depressed, but he had not yet fallen to the point of causing trouble for an old woman.

The old woman suddenly changed the subject: "However, it is indeed your contribution that the shogunate has restored its former customs."

The old woman took off the rock dragon mask and handed it to Jing Fantian.

Jing Fantian took the mask from the old woman and a smile immediately appeared on his face. This was a token of the old woman's kindness and also an acknowledgement of Jing Fantian's behavior.

This proves that Jing Fantian was not just idling around in Inazuma before, he made contributions.

"Princess Bai Lu, General Yan Long, I hope you have fun."

"Thank you for your words."

After shopping for zero yuan, Jing Fantian and Kamisato Ayaka left the mask stall wearing masks.

There weren't many people wearing masks on the street, except for the two of them and some kids who liked to play around.

This isn't a mask festival. Are you planning to launch a terrorist attack by wearing a mask in broad daylight?

The warriors of Tenryo Bugyo paid a little attention to the two men.

Kamisato Ayaka held Jing Fantian's hand, and she liked the quiet tranquility a little bit. She wanted to keep it a little longer.

But these are all wishful thinking. Maybe Jing Fantian will not belong to her at night, and will go to Mingjin Taisha to have sex with that vixen.

Or maybe in another three or five days, Jing Fantian would leave Inazuma and return to his loyal Liyue Port.

Jing Fantian has many identities, and Kamisato Ayaka hopes that he only has the identity of General Yanlong, which belongs exclusively to Inazuma.

People like the Liyue Emperor's Son, the Chief of the Fatui, and the Sumeru Brahma King have all left the Kamisato family's life and are not well known to Kamisato Ayaka.

Jing Fantian noticed that Shenli Linghua's hand was squeezing his arm hard. He was a little surprised: "What's wrong, Linghua?"

"No, it's nothing."

Kamisato Ayaka told some interesting things to divert attention: "This morning, the general and the general Tengu went to Tsurukan."

"Ok?"

The General here refers specifically to Ying. People who know that Zhen and Ying are the twin demons will call Zhen "Sir Zhen".

From a systemic perspective, Shin was only acting as the Kage's agent in governing Inazuma, and 500 years ago Shin handed over Inazuma's inheritance rights to Kage.

Nowadays, both the throne and the kingdom belong to one person.

Ying has no such awareness, but Zhen always considers Ying and designates her as the authentic one.

Jing Fantian was a little confused: "What is Ying doing in Heguan?"

Kamisato Ayaka shook her head: "I don't know, I think now that the Shogun has a real master in charge, the Shogun wants to improve his martial arts!"

"Murakami Island is too noisy, and Tsuruga is the quietest. Plus, there are many monsters there, so the general can practice and clear out the monsters at the same time."

Jing Fantian nodded.
