At Yujing Terrace, an old woman was sighing at the glazed lilies, lamenting the impermanence of the world.

"Hello."

The old woman turned around, "Huh? Young man, are you here to enjoy the flowers?"

"What a pity, you came at the wrong time. The glazed lilies are all withering..."

[Paimon: Why? Aren't the surrounding colorful flowers still good? ]

[Ying: Different species, so the flowering period should be different.]

[Ganyu: Actually... there is a saying that glazed lilies are a kind of human-like flower. If they hear good sounds, such as laughter and singing, they will be very happy and grow well. ]

[Keqing: Is there such a saying? ]

[Tinari: If we infer this way, we can also know why the flowers wither from what we have seen and heard along the way.]

[Yaoyao: Because the emperor is gone, everyone is unhappy, so the flowers are also unhappy.]

[Grandma Ping: That's right...]

Yingmei explained her purpose and said she wanted to borrow the Dichen Bell.

Grandma Ping did not refuse.

Because of the promise made at the beginning, as long as someone came to borrow it, she would naturally give it to them.

Ying entered the magical cave in the pot and found the dust-cleansing bell with swift hands and feet.

"Young people are very nimble. It took only a short time to get it."

"Are you an immortal?" Ying asked back.

"Immortal... I haven't heard anyone mention the word immortal for a long time. As for whether I am an immortal, child, don't you understand it in your heart?"

[Ying: Do I need to think about it? I bet she is]

[Paimeng: Will immortals also grow old? ]

[Chongyun: It is said that the appearance of immortals is just a transformation, so it should be impossible to judge these from the appearance]

[Xingqiu: Yes, wasn't it discussed not long ago that the emperor could transform into a woman? ]

Ying nodded. This was already a default answer for her.

However, if you lend things out so easily, are you really not afraid of being cheated?

After all, the Rock King just got into trouble, and the two of them came here exhausted to borrow the bell.

Granny Ping replied, "Silly child, I don't know how many immortals have left Liyue Harbor from ancient times to the present. I don't know how many storms have been caused."

"But no matter which time, we should follow the rules to hold the immortal sending ceremony first. Then arrange the subsequent matters."

"Calling for the murderer but delaying the immortal sending ceremony, in my opinion, is putting the cart before the horse."

So, now someone comes to borrow the bell.

Most likely, some immortal can't stand it anymore and comes to take charge of the situation.

Granny Ping is of course happy to lend this dust-cleansing bell.

"Okay, take the things back quickly, don't delay the work."

"Please tell the person who sent you there a message, just say..."

"If you have time, you can come over for tea. I don't have much, but I still have a teapot."

At this stage, Ying has already guessed about Zhongli's identity.

At least he is someone who is familiar with the immortals.

[Paimeng: So Zhongli is also an immortal? ]

[Ying: You are right if you say so]

[At this point, I still can't guess what Mr. Zhongli wants to do]

[Yes, if he murdered the emperor, why did he hold a funeral for the emperor? ]

[Pay attention to the title, this is a trial for Liyue]

[Trial? Could it be that the emperor is not dead! He and the immortal Zhongli played a play? ]

Ying and Paimeng told Zhongli what Grandma Ping said truthfully.

Zhongli's reaction further confirmed the speculation of Ying and the chat room.

He said that when the time is right, he will visit with good tea.

After preparing the dust-cleansing bell, the next item is the kite.

The seven kites correspond to the seven rulers of the mortal world.

The old woman has a thorough understanding of the seven gods.

She has incorporated the characteristics of each god.

When talking about the Golden House, Paimon accidentally took up the topic.

Ying Mei signaled her not to continue.

[Paimon: What's wrong? Why did you suddenly cover my mouth? ]

[Mavica: Because 'there is an old saying in Liyue that walls have ears', right? ]

[Kiniqi: In this tense situation, I wonder how many eyes are watching you]

[Kuhule Acho: Hahaha, you leaked the secret]

[Daddalia: What do you say about this wave of investment @Rich Man]

[Rich Man: Haha]

[Ying: Damn it, you actually used Paimon's spit mechanism]

[Paimon: What the hell is that! ]

Sure enough, when it came time to pay, the young master immediately appeared, "For the balance... I'll pay."

"Ah, it's the young master!" Paimon covered his mouth.

Ying immediately became alert, "Are you ambushing us?"

"Haha, how could that be? I just happened to pass by."The young master said with a smile, "Mr. Zhongli is still the same. When paying or asking others to pay, he never looks at the price or the wallet."

"But then again, he actually understands the value of money and the sufferings of the world."

"But he doesn't seem to understand that being poor is also a situation that may happen to him..."

"Or in other words, he just can't imagine himself without money."

Paimon frowned after hearing this, "It's amazing, how come such a person hasn't starved to death yet?"

[Zhongli: Starving to death... not to the point of death]

[Ying: Because Master Hu is carrying the burden forward]

[Hu Tao: Traveler... Are you my master's soulmate? ! ]

Zhongli looked at the young master, "Mr. Young Master is still so fond of joking."

"Okay, everything went well with the kite purchase, so there's no need to rest before the next preparation."

The immortal ceremony requires supplies and helpers.

They have to go to the dock to find a few workers.

The young master threw a purse to Ying.

"You understand even if I don't say it. You can bargain on your own, but don't let Zhongli interfere."

Looking at the backs of the three people going away, the young master murmured, "I came a step late, and it seems that I missed some interesting news."

"...Next time, try to show up at a more appropriate time."

[Paimon: Huh... He didn't hear it]

[Ying: Who would speak out their thoughts loudly? Aren't you afraid that the Qianyan soldiers behind you will hear it?]

[Tadalia:...]

[Funina: Why is your focus always so strange? ]

[Raiden Zhen: What an interesting person]

[Fukaros: He is funny when he should be funny, and reliable when he should be serious. It's really interesting]

[Ying: Stop praising me, it's getting awkward]

After hiring workers, the young master was still standing there.

"Is the matter done? You don't have to pay back the remaining money, take it yourself, people who work for the Fatui will not suffer any loss."

Little Paimon crossed his arms, "Huh, can such a beggar's food buy me? - Just tell me when the next fund will be given?"

This statement made Yingmei laugh.

The young master was also very happy, because things that can be bought with money are not a big deal.

"I have a piece of news, as long as you can tell me, I will open the vault of the Northland Bank to you for half an hour."

[Rich man: Did you open it? Just promise]

[Tadalia: Isn't the money for the mission unlimited? ]

[Ying: In order to achieve your goal, you really do whatever it takes, what a pity...]

[Rich man: What, do you have to pay more? ]

[Ying: No, I'm just simply unhappy [Madam], so I won't agree, unless... I take the eighth seat! ]

[Madam: ? ? ? 】

【Sanbing: Hahaha, okay, anyway, the thing is in her hand, not in the lady's hand】

Ying certainly did not agree to the young master's conditions.

The atmosphere between the two was a little tense.

Zhongli arrived in time, otherwise the two might have really fought...
