Liyue Taoist of the original god

"Where do you want him to study under his master?"

"I negotiated with Grandma Ping five years ago and wanted Mandrill to accept him as his apprentice."

Ouyang controlled the wheelchair and turned to look at Shen He, and continued to ask: "Do you have any ideas?"

"Your family already has a legacy, so why do you want him to become a disciple of someone else's?"

"The inheritance of your family is too particular about fate. Those things are still too early for him now. Besides, it's not a bad thing to learn more skills."

Ouyang told the truth, but he didn't tell the whole story.

It is true that the inheritance of your family is difficult to learn. Ouyang was able to memorize the complicated formations only with the help of the system. For Gui Chuanyu, he is still too young to learn these at all.

The unsaid part is to pave the way for Gui Chuanyu in the future. To put it simply, it is to win over more allies. It is not that he wants to plot against Mandrill, but that the child will gain a foothold in Liyue in the future, so it is right to make more friends with the immortals.

It's a casual move.

There's no harm in doing it anyway, so why not?

Thinking of this, Ouyang asked: "How about you teach that child some skills?"

"What I have learned is all from immortal spells, and some of the alchemist spells passed down from my family are not suitable for his current age."

Ouyang didn't care about being rejected and nodded: "Let's go and eat."

As night falls, leaving aside those who are busy with all kinds of news, the day just passes.

Early the next morning.

Sorensen, who arrived at Guyun Pavilion in advance, waited anxiously on this simple wharf, which was clearly built in a hurry.

He has not been doing well these past two days, and it is because he is not doing well mentally.

Anyone who risks everything to do business in Liyue Port will never be able to remain calm after encountering so many troubles.

Maybe someone can do it, but Sorenson doesn't think such a person really exists.

The note given to him by the General Affairs Department has been kept closely by him, but such a flimsy piece of paper has no real sense, and he has never been at ease in his heart.

He has a sense of trust in Liyue Qixing, but after all, it is related to his own interests. Before everything is implemented, his heart has been hanging in the air and unable to calm down.

This can't be blamed on him being cowardly, risking everything to do business in Liyue, but he encountered various twists and turns during the process, and his little heart was almost unable to support it.

Coupled with various rumors that have not stopped, Sorensen left Liyue Port yesterday and came to wait near Guyun Pavilion.

I wanted to stay out of sight and out of mind, but when I arrived at the address marked on the map yesterday, all I saw was a simple dock, which didn't look like it could function as a transfer station at all.

Although the staff here had a good temper, they didn't understand his questions.

All these things made him even more anxious in the end.

He really couldn't afford to lose this time.

After finally surviving the night on the boat, he came down and waited at dawn.

"This... sir? When can the goods I need be loaded on the ship?"

"Oh, you're welcome. I'm not an adult, I'm just the first mate of the Southern Cross Fleet. You can call me Chongzuo. As for the cargo, didn't your note say it would be loaded at eight o'clock? It's still early."

It's getting late, it's already 7:50!

Sorenson wanted to yell at the other party, but finally held back.

"There are a lot of people waiting here. Will it be too late for shipment at eight o'clock?"

"Don't worry, look, the cargo ship is coming."

Following the direction indicated by Chongzuo, Sorensen saw a huge fleet coming from the direction of Liyue Port.

It can be judged from the flag that it is the Southern Cross Fleet.

Great, we can finally start loading.

Sorensen, who was joyful in his heart, was about to say something when he heard Chongzuo next to him say: "Boss Sorensen, please get on the ship. We are about to start loading."

"Huh? Aren't you guys unloading here? I'll just wait here."

Sorensen looked at Chongzuo with some confusion. He didn't understand that although the Southern Cross fleet was here, didn't it still have to unload the cargo and then load the ore onto his own cargo ship?

Why is this man chasing me on board now?

But Chongzuo didn't explain much and continued to urge: "You will understand when you get on the ship. There are other foreign businessmen here. Now you are the first in line. Don't waste this opportunity."

"Oh fine."

After glancing at Chongzuo and then at the approaching Southern Cross fleet, Sorensen returned to his ship in confusion.

On the other side, on the Death Star.

Facing the wind, Beidou stood on the bow of the ship, looking at Guyun Pavilion getting closer and closer, and said to Xue Lian beside him: "Xue Lian, we have to wait a while before we go to sea this time. I promised Ningguang that we will go to sea in the future."

Stay here for two weeks."

"It's okay. Ouyang also told me before I came here, let me watch you and don't let you drink in the past two weeks."

"Why is he like this? I only agreed to Ningguang because of his face, but he actually did this kind of thing of repaying kindness with hatred. Xue Lian, you won't listen to him, right?"

Looking at Beidou with an angry look on his face, Xue Lian didn't take it seriously. She understood that the eldest sister and her master had a very good relationship, and everything in front of her was just a show for her.

She smiled and shook her head, her tone gentle but also firm in reply: "Of course I obey the master's orders, so, eldest sister, I have put away this wine."

"ha?!"

Beidou, who was still thinking about what to say, heard that Xue Lian actually "took the fire under the cauldron" and looked at Xue Lian in shock as if he was petrified.

"When did it happen? Why didn't I know?"

"Just yesterday, I got up in the evening and ordered people to put away all the wine."

"Good on you..."

Before he finished speaking, his fingers were waving in the air.

Beidou looked at Xue Lian who was unmoved, thought for a while, and decided to try changing his routine.

"Good sister, we have been sisters for so many years, don't you know how much I drink? It's okay to drink a little."

"My master said that this matter is related to the livelihood of Liyue Port, and it depends on our results. I heard what he said seriously, which means that the matter is really not a big deal, so, eldest sister, let us have this wine

How about you stop drinking recently?"

"Hey, isn't it just a matter of catching a few fish? What else can I not do? Let's discuss it and give me ten jars of wine every day, otherwise I will be passive and slow down my work!"

"Okay, but just one jar!"

"One altar? No, no, at least... at least nine altars!"

"There is only one jar."

Faced with Beidou's bargaining, Xue Lian refused to give in.

This is hard for Beidou. Without wine, half of the fun in life would be missing for her.

"Xue Lian, what's wrong with you? According to our tradition in Liyue, don't we ask for a high price and pay back the money on the spot? If you don't give in, we won't be able to negotiate this business."

"Sister, I have felt the difficulty of the master of the house at home these days. It is rare that he has arranged some things for me this time, so I will definitely do it well."

First she explained to Beidou, and then the expression on Xue Lian's face softened. She looked at Beidou and said seductively like coaxing a child.

"Sister, although I don't know what you and the head of the family are going to do, I know that if you finish it earlier, you can drink wine earlier!"

"Hmph, okay, okay, I'm afraid of you."

Beidou no longer worries about these things. She knows that Xue Lian did this because she wanted to help her family. The two have been friends for so many years and they will not make trouble on this matter.

There was no going back without making trouble, but the negotiated terms could not be wasted. She asked Xue Lian for today's jar of wine.

"Bring it here, my share today!"

"Sister, are you really not willing to wait for a moment? We are about to load the goods for them."

"What a big deal."

After muttering, Beidou shouted to his crew: "Attention, everyone! Follow the previous instructions, lower the anchor, and deliver goods to those gentlemen!"

"Okay, big sister!"

The sailors responded one after another.

On the other side, Sorensen, who was waiting on the ship, saw a huge ship docked beside his cargo ship. The shadow cast by the huge hull of the Death Omen completely enveloped his ship.

Gudu——

A huge sense of oppression came over, and Sorensen swallowed, feeling a little frightened.

I had always heard that the Southern Cross Fleet was very powerful, but I didn’t expect that all the ships in the fleet were such giant ships!

It is conceivable that the legendary Captain Beidou must also be a great man.

Before he could recover, he saw a rope lowered from the Death Omen, and a figure stepped onto the deck of Sorensen's cargo ship along the rope.

Xu Xiaoliu looked around and asked with some uncertainty: "Who is the captain?"

"I, I am! My name is Sorenson, and I am the captain here."

"Oh, that's good, Captain Sorensen, where's the note from the General Services Department? Don't take it without it, otherwise I won't be able to load the goods for you."

"Here, here!"

Sorensen handed the note to the other party respectfully.

Xu Xiaoliu took the note, checked it carefully, turned around and shouted at the Death Star: "Three Ships Crystal Mine!"

"okay!"

The promise came from far above. Sorenson looked up and saw several planks of wood extending from the Death Star and lowered onto the cargo ship.

Snapped--

The planks fell, connecting the two ships.

Then he saw wooden boxes sliding down the wooden boards onto his cargo ship.

"Boss Sorensen, please hurry up and let the sailors carry it. After this ship has been transported, there are still two more."

"Okay, okay."

Sorensen, who had never seen such a loaded person before, nodded dully.

The sun gradually rises, Liyue Port, Guifu.

After Gui Chuanyu woke up, Ouyang accompanied him to finish breakfast, and then took him and Shen He to Grandma Ping's place.

Gui Chuanyu arrived here and went directly into the pot to look for Yaoyao. Ouyang, Shen He and Grandma Ping were left at the tea table.

After the guests and hosts sat down, Ouyang spoke first.

"Grandma Ping, I'm going to the school to stay for a few days, and I have to ask you to take care of the child."

"It's easy to talk about the children. My wife doesn't find it troublesome."

Grandma Ping responded with a smile, keeping her eyes on Ouyang: "I heard that you have become a Seven Star? Congratulations."

What's so congratulatory?

"It's nothing, I'm still in the learning stage."

Ouyang answered truthfully. He really had many blind spots in knowledge, but Grandma Ping obviously didn't think so.

"Although the old woman is old, her eyes are not blurred and her ears are not deaf. I know about the emperor's edict. And looking at what you have done in the past few days, you have also sealed such a big thing in the Layer Rock Abyss.

If you handle it well, don't be modest."

"I just put forward some ideas, and the specific implementation depends on everyone's efforts. These are not my alone's credit."

"Hehehe..."

Grandma Ping happily dismissed the topic. She turned to look at Shen He, who had been standing next to Ouyang, and asked her with a smile: "Little baby, your name is Shen He, right?"

"Yes, I have met the true king."

"Well, Liu Yun also mentioned something to me before. Now I see that you have come to him. Why, you have promised your master to marry him?"

puff--

Ahem——

When Ouyang heard what Grandma Ping said, the tea in his mouth spurted out.

Am I crazy?

What's going on?

Didn’t you say you were here to be a bodyguard?

Why is it still involved in marriage???

He turned to look at Shen He in disbelief, the shock and doubt in his eyes not concealed at all.

Just when he wanted to ask the reason, Shen He glanced at Ouyang calmly, turned to Grandma Ping and said: "This time when we go down the mountain, the master asked me to come to your house as a bodyguard to protect Ouyang's safety. There is no other arrangement.

"

"Hehehe, um, that's right. The best thing is to get along with each other more. I am also opposed to Liu Yun's practice of directly arranging marriages. Now this is good, very good. Hehehe..."

Forget it, I can't explain this posture for a while.

Seeing that this matter seemed to be going down a crooked road, Ouyang was also very confused and needed to have a good talk with Shen He in private.

So he decisively changed the subject.

"Grandma Ping, I came here this time to talk to you about Gui Chuanyu's apprenticeship that I talked to you about five years ago."

"Oh? Are you talking about Mandrill?"

"That's right. Now that I have become Tianshu, things will start to get busy. I'm afraid that I won't have time to discipline my children in the future."

"The Great Sage of Conquering Demons usually succumbs to demons near Dihuazhou. Because the child is still young, I haven't asked anyone to ask him in these years. You need to wait."

"Okay, if it doesn't work out, then we can only do what we are doing now. If something happens, I can only ask you to take care of the children."

"It's okay. There's nothing wrong with the old lady. It's fun to have a few little guys around. If you hurry up, I can help you carry her. It won't be a problem."

You can't make it, right?

He wanted to retort a few words, but Ouyang knew that there was no way to explain this matter, and it might even get darker and darker.

Seeing that everything was arranged, Ouyang left decisively.

In Grandma Ping's smiling expression, Ouyang was defeated and "ran away" with Shen He.

In the study.

"You sit down first."

Ouyang stretched out his hand and asked Shen He to sit down first.

He was going to go directly to school, but the news he heard from Grandma Ping was really shocking, so Ouyang chose to go back home first to find out more.

But after Shen He sat down, the two of them looked at each other and neither spoke first.

quiet.

The atmosphere suddenly made Ouyang feel a little embarrassed.

He suddenly felt as if things were not settled that way, or in other words, the so-called asking clearly, how should he ask?

Ask the other person if there is any ulterior motive?

That feels a little silly.

Ask directly if you want to get married?

Isn't that more stupid?

It seems... a little sloppy.
