Liyue Taoist of the original god

Chapter 485 You don’t have a wife, you don’t understand!

In the private room, the moment Kong and Paimon stepped into the private room, Ouyang led the two of them around the screen and to the dining table without any delay.

Then he pointed to Zhongli who was sitting in the main seat and introduced the two of them: "You two, this is the person I want to introduce to you today, Mr. Zhongli, the guest of the Hall of Rebirth."

Ouyang's introduction was very formulaic, neither revealing Zhongli's identity nor adding any other footnotes.

For example, he did not specify the identity of your guest.

Because he knew that he was just a matchmaking NPC in this banquet, so he calmly played his part.

As for sabotage and the like, it is not within his scope of choice.

Considering that Osel had come out before, but Zhongli still persisted in expressing his dissatisfaction and wanted to continue to implement the contract, Ouyang would not deliberately sabotage it.

This is not good for both parties and Liyue.

The right thing to do is to get things done early, and then suddenly rush out when Zhongli is most relaxed to "trap" Zhongli to death!

At the dining table, after the introduction, Kong nodded friendly to Zhongli, while Paimon glanced at Zhongli at the main seat with bright eyes, and then murmured in a voice that everyone could hear clearly.

"Hmph, finally there is someone who is more eye-catching than a certain stinky guy."

Do you talk a lot?

Ouyang heard clearly, but he didn't even look at him, but continued to introduce in a formulaic manner.

"Mr. Zhongli, these two are travelers, and they have his emergency food. They should be helpful to what you are going to do this time."

As soon as Zhongli finished speaking, before Zhongli could speak, Paimon jumped up and said, "Hey! Paimon is not some emergency food!"

She was very dissatisfied with Ouyang's words, but just when she wanted to continue to say something, Kong gave her a look and stopped her behavior.

Kong turned his head, glanced at Ouyang thoughtfully, and then said to Zhongli: "Hello, Zhongli, my name is Kong, and this is my partner, Paimon."

Paimon was very satisfied with the traveler's introduction.

She waved and smiled, then said hello: "Hello!"

"Well, I've heard of the Traveler's name too." Zhongli, who was finally able to continue, began his performance.

"The honorary knight of Mondstadt, the hero who fought against the Wind Demon Dragon and saved Mondstadt. These titles are also heard in Liyue today."

After saying that, Zhongli reached out to the seat next to him and said, "Please sit down."

Everyone took their seats.

Naturally, Zhongli is the one in charge.

Among the left and right sides of him, Sora is on the left, and Paimon is sitting next to Sora.

The one on the right is naturally Ouyang Yugui Chuanyu.

Most of the dishes have been served, but Ouyang is in no mood to wait for them to finish before getting down to business.

Although he couldn't see anything special about the travelers, Ouyang, one of the actors, no longer wanted to cooperate with Zhongli's performance.

He was very anxious, anxious to go back and study the matter of cultivating immortals.

Therefore, he said directly: "Because the emperor has fallen, Qixing is preparing to hold a ceremony to send immortals. I made the decision and handed this matter over to Mr. Zhongli of the Hall of Purity."

Then, he continued to say to the sky: "You probably know only a little about various things in Liyue. I invite you here because I want you to participate. Through this matter, you can better understand the whole situation."

"It just so happens that I also know the purpose of your trip, which is to travel to Teyvat and ask the Seven Gods about the whereabouts of your sister. And this immortal ceremony will also allow you to formally come into contact with the emperor's magical transformation, which can unlock your

While I have some doubts in my heart, I also promise to tell you some things I know after it is done."

After saying this, everyone had different expressions.

Zhongli drank tea calmly, although he didn't like such an opening statement.

But that's not important.

All he needed to do was meet the two travelers, and he would naturally guide the rest of the matter, so he didn't care what Ouyang said.

Paimon crossed his arms, closed his eyes and turned his head away, pretending not to hear.

However, she secretly opened a small slit and glanced at the food on the dining table, but Ouyang's eyes did not escape her.

Sora is more intriguing.

He looked at Ouyang with increasingly wary eyes.

Because whether it was the previous "emergency food" or the purpose of the current trip, only he and Paimon knew these best.

He couldn't help but be more vigilant because Ouyang knew so much about his situation.

The first person to speak was someone who didn't know anything and just thought it was Gui Chuanyu who was really here for dinner.

He clapped his hands excitedly and said happily: "That's great. It turns out that eldest brother is also the one to participate in the ceremony of sending immortals? Then we will act together in the future!"

"Oh? Chuanyu, are you also going to participate?"

It was Paimon who spoke. After she finished speaking, she asked in a joking tone, "Isn't it a little spy someone planted here?"

Gui Chuanyu naturally didn't understand. He shook his head in confusion and explained: "No, the uncle said that I am still young and it is time for me to exercise more and increase my knowledge so that I can grow up and take over the family! So I am here to tell you

Mr. Zhongli is not studying to be a spy."

This sounds like someone’s excuse for being lazy?

The child is still so young, is he starting to pave the way for laziness in the future so early?

Paimeng looked at Ouyang who kept silent, and for no reason he thought of Wendy who didn't do anything serious every day.

At the same time, I also remembered Wendy's previous request - telling Ouyang that he owed Wendy wine.

But she didn't want to mention it right now.

Before entering the box, her original mentality was very contradictory. On the one hand, she wanted to know what Ouyang said about making money, but on the other hand, she wanted to maintain the same attitude as the travelers.

But after Ouyang said the words "emergency food", Paimon became even more prejudiced against Ouyang.

Simply so rude!

At this time, the door of the box was opened, and many maids filed in.

They held trays and placed the last few dishes on the table.

One after another delicious dishes with full color, aroma and flavor were brought to the table.

The aroma filled the air for a moment, making Paimon dumbfounded.

She swallowed secretly, sighing in her heart.

Is this the strength of Liyue’s top hotels?

Just looking at it makes me want to eat, and I can almost catch up with Xiang Ling’s craftsmanship!

The seriousness bloomed a little brightly, and at this moment she silently decided in her heart that she must urge travelers to make money, so that she can always eat such delicious food!

The atmosphere in the box relaxed at this moment.

After the maid said goodbye and left, Ouyang, who was holding the sleeping little fox, also stood up and prepared to say goodbye.

He said to Zhongli: "Mr. Zhongli, I have brought you here, and I will leave the rest to you."

"Okay." Zhongli heard Ouyang's intention to say goodbye. He glanced at the little fox in Ouyang's arms and continued, "If you have something to do, go ahead and leave the rest to me.

good."

"Well, farewell."

Ouyang patted Gui Chuanyu on the shoulder, gave him an encouraging look, and left.

The atmosphere also began to pick up after Ouyang left.

Paimon first muttered: "What? You're really big."

Then she looked at the table full of delicious food and asked urgingly: "Can you start eating? Paimon is hungry!"

"Paimon, don't be so rude."

Since she was a guest, Sora still reminded Paimon in a low voice, asking her to pay attention to the occasion.

However, Zhongli heard it and stopped Kong's behavior.

"Travellers don't have to be like this. In Liyue, it is a reasonable and standard thing to feed guests. Now that I am sitting in the main seat, you are here as guests, so there is no need to be so formal."

As he said that, he pointed to the other side and explained: "Look, isn't Chuanyu eating right now?"

The three of them looked over and saw that Gui Chuanyu had already begun to feast.

When the child saw that everyone was looking at him, he nodded quickly and said, "Yes, big brother, there is no need to be restrained. Mr. Zhongli is a very good person."

"Chuanyu, do you know Mr. Zhongli?"

"Well, I know him. He is also a guest of our family."

"Guest guest...?" Kong blinked and turned to Zhongli and asked, "Didn't I just say that Mr. Zhongli is the guest guest of the Hall of Rebirth? Why is he now the guest guest of your family again?"

"Oh."

Zhongli chuckled when he heard this, and did not choose to answer the question first. Instead, he picked up a dinner plate, picked some dishes with chopsticks, and placed them in front of Ruo Tuo.

Then he explained to Kong: "Your family has been in Liyue for thousands of years and is a family with a very deep heritage. The head of this generation, Ouyang, asked me to collect some antique calligraphy and paintings from the market for his family. Because it involves Mora, so

You gave me the status of a guest guest so that I can withdraw money at any time."

Is that so?

Sora was noncommittal and soon asked another question.

"Mr. Zhongli, since you are a guest of your family, do you also know something about the head of your family, Ouyang?"

"This, I do know something about it, what's the matter? Do you have any questions that you need to ask me?" Zhongli said with a calm tone, "You can ask, I can tell you everything I know. But if you are

If you want to ask me some details, I really can’t tell you. After all, my main focus is still on the work of the Hall of Rebirth."

"Is that so? Can the intelligence work of the Seven Stars of Liyue extend beyond Liyue? Or is it just like in the legend of Liyue, the immortals have various spells to detect the past and the future?!"

"Huh?" Zhong Li put down his tea cup after hearing this, shook his head and said, "The magic of detecting the past and the future is naturally impossible. At least I have never heard of those immortals actually doing it. Why do you ask that?

?”

Kong said: "Because I'm curious about why Ouyang always knows some things that I think will never be spread out. Those things that I have hidden in my heart have been pointed out by Ouyang in these several meetings.

"

"Ouyang was born in a Taoist sect, which is considered to belong to a system other than Liyue Xuanmen. He once claimed that he could obtain some information through fortune-telling and other forms. But this was just what he said. I don't know whether it is true or not.

Already."

After explaining this, Zhongli added another sentence at the end: "However, there are times when he can indeed know some things like a prophet. Maybe the fortune-telling skills he mentioned are true."

Fortune telling?!

For this new term, Sora feels extremely unfamiliar.

But since Zhongli didn't know much about it, he naturally couldn't continue to ask questions.

At the dinner table, Paimeng and Gui Chuanyu had already begun to "turn a deaf ear to what was going on outside the window and focus on the food."

Only Kong and Zhongli continued to communicate unhurriedly.

The two were not familiar with each other from the beginning, but as the chat progressed, they slowly opened up the topic.

In Zhongli's words, Kong slowly began to understand Ouyang's personality.

It seemed that apart from his slightly eccentric personality, he was not a person who would kill gods as he had guessed.

However, as long as there was no evidence, he did not take Zhongli's words seriously, but only regarded them as a side consideration.

At the same time, he also sensed Zhongli's profound knowledge in his conversation and demeanor, and in the small gaps in his words.

It can simply be said that he is knowledgeable about the past and the present.

This also made him gradually let down his guard against Zhongli - when facing a knowledgeable person, he would always unconsciously have some admiration for him.

The topic between the two of them also got to the point under Zhongli's guidance.

Zhongli said seriously: "Although Emperor Yan Wang is the ancestor of all immortals, he is still one of the immortals in the final analysis. Throughout Liyue's thousands of years of history, immortals have left one after another. This is an irreversible trend."

"The times have quietly changed over the past thousands of years. You should have experienced this change in Jueyunjian, right?"

"It seems like this." Kong replied thoughtfully, "The immortals of Liyue left Liyue Port a long time ago and lived alone among the clouds."

Zhongli nodded and began to tell: "As you can see, the age of immortals is passing away, and the age of humans is gradually becoming a reality."

Because the conversation was over, Kong's words were no longer concealed. He asked directly: "So, is this ceremony of sending immortals something that Qixing wants to take advantage of to take over?"

"It's not that" Zhongli shook his head and explained, "You haven't been in Liyue for a long time, so you don't understand many things. In previous years, when every immortal passed away, there would be a grand commemorative ceremony. This is the tradition of Liyue. It's just that this time he passed away.

The immortal is just the Rock King."

"Then why not find the murderer who assassinated the gods, but instead hold this ceremony to send immortals? Don't the Seven Stars care about their gods at all?"

"The murderer who assassinated the god. The Palace of Life does not care about this kind of thing. Now that Qixing has entrusted me with the ceremony of sending immortals, the Palace of Life can only take care of its own affairs first before taking care of others."

After saying that, Zhongli immediately invited.

"Traveler, since you are willing to come today, could you consider working with me to prepare a ceremony to bid farewell to the Rock God? And if you really want to investigate the truth of the matter, then I think you will get the answer from it.

"

truth answer

Looking into Zhongli's eyes, Kong was silent for a while, then nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I accept your invitation to hold a farewell ceremony for the gods of Liyue."

Whether it was the truth or the so-called answer, Kong chose to agree.

On the one hand, Ouyang had information about his sister, which made him inclined to agree.

On the other hand, after communicating with Zhongli, he also wanted to take this opportunity to investigate all the truth of the matter!

And Zhongli didn't show any joy after receiving the answer.

He calmly picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Although things had twists and turns, they eventually returned to the starting point. It was still a good thing.

He was in a good mood, and when he saw that the travelers were starting to eat, he stopped disturbing them.

He silently made tea by himself and calmly transmitted the message to Ruo Tuo on the other side who seemed to have lost his appetite.

"Why, you haven't eaten anything?"

"You don't have a wife, you don't understand!"

Um?!

Zhongli, who never expected to receive such an answer, almost couldn't hold the teapot steady in his hand, but still spilled some tea.

He glanced at Ruo Tuo without any trace, put down the teapot gently, picked up a tablecloth to wipe the water stains, and asked again through the voice transmission.

"Does Ouyang want to develop a new path of cultivation?"

"Huh? How did you know?"

"I saw something about the white fox in his arms. It seems to be somewhat similar to what I did before, but it seems different at the same time, so I asked you."

"Well, Ouyang said he is a cultivator, but he is not an immortal like the one in Liyue now. Hey, he is a very special kind of immortal anyway."

"This road is not easy to walk on."

"Hmm?" Ruotuo really lost his appetite now, and he quickly asked, "Morax, you know a lot, why don't you find an opportunity to communicate with Ouyang?"

As long as it's about the little fox, Ruo Tuo is extremely caring now.

So he then suggested: "How about I notify him to come over now? Can you open a separate box and have a private chat?"

Ruo Tuo was anxious, but Zhongli did not agree.

He drank tea and said calmly: "It involves natural principles. I may not know as much as he does. Let's see what he will do."

The calm look on that face deeply hurt Ruo Tuo's nerves.

"You have no heart!"

He cast a cursing glance at Zhongli and said through the voice: "Sure enough, you, a wifeless man, don't understand this anxious feeling."

"Morax, there will be a generation gap between us in the future!"
