Jingyi looks warily at the trees around them for a moment.

"Why would anyone crawl through a bunch of roots to get to a shrine? Aren't there plenty of other ones out in the open around here?" He supposes if there is something really special about that particular shrine, but it seems rather foolish to him.

It's almost as dumb as being in middle of the wilderness and hearing someone shouting for help in the distance. Doesn't everyone know evil spirits tend to do that to lure people to them?

Of course, that's his thoughts on the subject in theory. In practice.. he may have run a few times toward the distraught voice and then had to battle his way back to safety.
