The uncle's tone was calm and his expression didn't change much, as if he was really just asking.
But this problem gave Ouyang some toothache.
According to the genealogy records, the place where this tombstone is located is the place where the ancestor of your family, Guidong Lai, made his fortune, but there is no clear record of who is buried specifically.
Moreover, it has been so long that, in Ouyang's perception, there is no such thing as a coffin in the soil under the tombstone.
So when the uncle asked, Ouyang had to link the matter to his death.
After all, this place can be regarded as Gui Li's original realm, and Gui Yu seems to be connected to your family, so he has to think so.
He glanced at Gui Chuanyu, who was going through the process of worshiping in a decent manner.
Ouyang turned around and asked softly: "Sir, are you referring to the end of life?"
"No, I'm really just asking."
I believe you...are a ghost!
Ouyang looked at the calm old man and wanted to ask something, but although there were not many people present, including a cat, a fairy and a child, they could not know some things.
After thinking about it, I decided to give up first.
He was somewhat aware that the uncle seemed to be waiting for them here intentionally.
It's a pity that I don't know what the specific matter is, but don't worry, since the uncle is here, it means that he will naturally know when the time comes.
I won’t ask anymore! I can’t hold you back to death!
Ouyang complained in his heart.
The most annoying Riddler!
Ouyang didn't know why Zhongli appeared here, and he didn't bother to care.
I just hope that this apprenticeship won't cause any trouble.
After successfully worshiping their ancestors, the group followed the road to Leping Town.
Naturally, Zhongli also moved forward with the team.
Although Ouyang's expression of fear of facing an enemy was well concealed, he still could not escape the uncle's eyes.
He walked to Ouyang naturally, and when no one was paying attention, he summoned a thought to penetrate into Ouyang's body.
"My little friend, you are too nervous."
"Although the tombstone just now is indeed the final one, I really don't know anything about her."
"Go your own way!"
"I'm really just hanging out this time."
Mmp, don’t you know that your presence means something bad is bound to happen?
Of course he is not nervous. Now that he has been promoted to Demon God, not only is he walking sideways in Teyvat, but at least there are not many people who can stop him.
However, despite his high strength, he is still troubled by all kinds of troubles, especially unknown ones.
Ouyang complained crazily in his heart, but found that this time his thoughts seemed to be one-way. After the uncle finished speaking, he walked to the other side.
The purpose of this trip to Leping Town is very simple. In the ancestral hall of the ancestral home, the worship ceremony is completed in front of the tombs of the ancestors.
The reason why it was not completed in your mansion in Liyue Harbor is because Ouyang also wanted to take a look at your family's property here.
Not long after the group left, they saw many craftsmen working there not far away. The shouts and shouts made the entire construction site seem lively.
This is the team sent by Keqing to build roads in various places.
The so-called road construction means first planning the location and direction of the road, demarcating the specific location, and then tamping the surrounding land to dig out a deep enough pit on the planned road surface.
It should be about half a meter deep and more than ten meters wide.
Then fill the pit with large stones as a foundation, then fill in small pieces of gravel to fill the gaps in the stone foundation and fix it with mortar.
The last thing is to wait for the mortar to dry, then spread fine loess and compact the road surface.
Liyue is very mountainous, and all the materials can be obtained locally, so it doesn't require a lot of effort. It's mainly a laborious job.
Originally, Ouyang wanted to pave the road with bricks and stones so that it could be opened to traffic and carry heavy carriages, but at first, both Keqing, Ningguang and Ganyu rejected it.
It means that the firing of bricks and stones is indeed not troublesome, but it has to cover the entire Liyue... Although it is financially sufficient, other aspects of work cannot be carried out.
What's more, airships are mostly used to transport goods in this world. Although there are also cattle-drawn goods, there are not many.
Moreover, the people are ignorant and cannot predict that the bricks and stones laid on the ground will be stolen, and it is unrealistic for Qianyan Army to take care of them after the road is repaired.
Ouyang did not insist for various reasons.
But he still decided that the money for the bricks and stones could be discussed with each village and town. If the other party was willing to pay for the bricks and stones, then the villages and towns would pay for the bricks and stones.
Those who have no money use loess to pave their roads.
It's enough anyway.
The two villages and towns here, Leping Town and Kaiyang Town, have stone roads paved by your family.
The road is now half built.
Ouyang just looked aside and did not come forward to disturb.
The group continued to move forward, and after leaving the construction site, they were able to walk on the road paved by the craftsmen.
Ouyang stepped on the stone slab, feeling quite satisfied and stable.
A width of more than ten meters does not seem impressive to Ouyang, because in his previous life he had seen many eight-lane roads, so the width in front of him was just that.
Stepping on the stone bricks, Ouyang became more and more satisfied. He looked around and felt that some trees should be planted on both sides of the road here in the future.
Otherwise it won't work.
Ouyang and his party headed towards Leping Town.
At the same time, an evil act was taking place in a vegetable market in the northeast of Leping Town.
"Bring it to you!"
boom--
Crash--
Zhang San looked impatient and grabbed the vegetable basket from the old farmer's stall, and even kicked the old farmer.
tui~
"I don't know how to praise!"
After glaring at the old farmer, Zhang San touched his nose and waved to the spectators around him: "Go, go, go, don't block my sight!"
After saying that, Zhang San carried the vegetable basket and crossed the crowd, heading towards the butcher shop not far away.
He followed the same pattern, not talking about Maura at all, grabbing a rack of ribs and putting them in the vegetable basket.
The store owner was too angry to say anything. He could only look at Zhang San's blatant robbery and silently begged the emperor to bless him so that the evil man could take less.
But maybe the emperor was blind, and it was not enough for Zhang San to take away a rack of ribs. He looked around and found half a pig leg exposed behind the store owner's burly figure.
"Okay, you have learned to hide your secrets!"
"What is that? Take it out!"
"Sir, please spare my life!" The store owner put down the kitchen knife in his hand, reached behind his back with both hands, and firmly grabbed the ham that he had hidden.
He had a pleading look on his face, and if it weren't for the small space in this butcher shop, he might have knelt down at this moment.
"Master, this ham was ordered by the Li family in the north of the city. The deposit has been paid. You can't take it away, sir!"
In the face of begging, Zhang San didn't accept this trick at all. His thin body did not frighten the other party at all, and yelled: "Get out of here, get it for me!"
"Bullshit Li family! Can these dirty things compare to my noble family?"
This this...
The shopkeeper thought of the other party's identity and had no choice but to hand over the ham behind him.
"You ignorant bitch, huh!"
Zhang San took the ham, glanced at the store with disdain, mocked him, and then left unsteadily.
And after he was completely gone, everyone in the vegetable market finally dropped their hearts.
Only then did the people's discussions gradually start.
"It's so abominable! Is there no one to treat him?"
"How to care? I heard that this noble man has become a seven-star in Liyue Port. The boundaries of Leping Town are far away. What else do you think you can do?"
"My cousin has been to Liyue Port before, and I heard that your master is quite good..."
"Hmph, who knows if it's just the fox pretending to be the tiger's power. Anyway, if this Leping Town continues like this, I almost feel like I can't stay here any longer."
"Isn't that right...sigh..."
Zhang San was walking down the street with a vegetable basket in his left hand and a ham in his right hand.
In fact, the ham he was carrying was a bit heavy, and for his thin body, the whole image was a bit comical.
But he didn't care at all, and just walked towards your house in a swaggering manner.
Pedestrians I met along the way bowed their heads and stayed away after seeing him.
Huh, what a bunch of fools.
Zhang San looked at the fearful pedestrians, sniffed, and felt very sad.
Soon, Zhang San, who turned left and right, returned to the door of your family's ancestral home in Leping Town.
He raised his foot and kicked it, and with a "clang" sound, the closed door was opened.
The loud noise made the lively atmosphere in the room pause for a moment, but after everyone saw the person clearly, they started yelling and cursing again.
"You are a turtle grandson. You broke the door by kicking it in. Why don't you take it and repair it?"
"Scared me, Zhang San! Go and cook!"
"Don't worry about that turtle grandson, let's keep drinking!"
After crossing the gate, you can see a lot of people sitting in the house, sitting or lying down, all of them are middle-aged and strong men.
Three or five of them were divided into several groups, drinking and eating meat.
"Boss, I'm back!"
Zhang San was not upset even after being scolded, he still happily entered the room and put today's "trophy" on the table.
"Boss, I bought a large ham today! It's enough for our brothers to eat for a whole day!"
Cheng Yong, who was sitting in the first place, took the ham, smelled the meat, and said happily: "Good stuff, go cook it and cut it into two plates!"
"Okay!" Zhang San agreed and walked to the kitchen happily.
On the other side, Ouyang and others have arrived at the intersection of the town.
Leping Town is not big, and of course it cannot be said to be prosperous. The whole town is just a main road that leads directly from north to south.
Looking at the intersection, you can see directly from one end to the other end of the town.
There are some houses lined up on both sides, and pedestrians on the street are also in a hurry, with not many smiles on their faces.
Because Ouyang didn't know the road, he led everyone to find a Qian Yanjun on duty at the intersection.
"Hello, I want to go to your ancestral home. Could you please show me the way?"
With that said, Ouyang handed a sign in his hand to the other party.
The soldiers on duty were also stunned, and subconsciously took the sign, but did not rush to check it. Instead, they looked at everyone carefully before asking: "Are you all going to your house?"
"Yes, I'm tired."
The soldier was still a little surprised, as if he felt something was wrong, but he didn't say anything. He glanced at the sign in his hand casually before returning it to Ouyang.
The brand is not a special token, it is just a small brand with the seal of Yuehai Pavilion, which can save you some trouble.
It's a pity that the soldier can't read, but that doesn't stop him from guiding Ouyang and the others.
"Just walk along the street. Soon, you will see a big house on the east side. There is a plaque there. It is very easy to recognize."
"Okay. Excuse me."
Ouyang originally wanted someone to show him the way, but now this person can show him the way.
Gui Chuanyu, who had been in his arms, secretly pulled Ouyang's clothes and whispered: "Uncle, let's go there to rest first."
Um?
Following the direction the child pointed, Ouyang saw a restaurant - Le Shi Restaurant.
He looked at the child who was staring at the restaurant in a funny way, and joked: "Are you obsessed with that sauce?"
"But how do you know there's delicious sauce there?"
"I, Gudu...I, I smelled it..." Gui Chuanyu replied.
"Hahaha, it seems like your nose is quite powerful. Okay, let's go there first."
"Yeah~"
Amid the cheers of the children, the group walked towards the restaurant.
This restaurant is not big, and you can see what's going on inside at a glance at the door.
It is not the meal time, so there are not many diners in the meal place at the moment, and they are all sitting around...
Ouyang, who originally wanted to find a private room, walked to a corner by the window and sat down.
The waiter ran over to greet me enthusiastically.
"Guests, what do you want to eat?"
"I heard that your sauce in Leping Town is quite famous. Do you have any delicious food to go with it?"
"Hey, sir, our sauce is indeed excellent, but your ordering method doesn't work."
"Huh? Why doesn't it work?" Ouyang became curious as he spoke.
Isn’t it just the sauce?
When he thought about it, besides not knowing whether braised vegetables were considered sauce, wouldn't he just order some meat or something like that and eat it as a dip?
But soon, the waiter's answer opened his eyes as a person who never enters the kitchen.
"Sir, our shop is famous for Chef Guo's spicy sauce, but in addition, there are sweet and salty sauces, and even ginger and onion sauce, bean paste, soybean paste, and peanut butter. If you want
If you don’t explain clearly, it’s really hard for me to order for you.”
"Some of these sauces are added directly to the dishes, while others are eaten as a dip."
"Sir, please take a look at the menu first."
So many?
Ouyang took the menu, but looked at Mandrill and the uncle, wanting to ask for their opinion.
But Mandrill just closed his eyes and fell asleep, while the uncle also looked casual.
Looking at the child who was swallowing hard, Ouyang said directly: "All the special dishes with these sauces are here."
"okay!"
When the waiter heard this, he rushed straight to the kitchen.
While waiting, Ouyang looked at the uncle and asked, "Do you know these sauces, sir?"
"I don't know much about it. This is the first time I've heard of it."
There are actually things about Liyue that you don’t know about?
Ouyang looked at the uncle in surprise. Just when he was about to say something, he was interrupted by the conversation at the other table.
"Oh, Butcher Wang is in trouble this time. A good ham was robbed, and the Li family decided to cause a scene this time."
"Isn't that right? Those members of your family really deserve to die!"
"Be careful! Now that the head of your family has become the Seven Stars, he is no longer someone that our people can mess with."
"Oh, your family's head has become a Seven Star. It shouldn't be because of these servants who are trying to take advantage of others! Look at how many things have been caused in just over a month! I don't know that Seven Star is far away in Liyue Port.
Your Excellency, do you know that your servants must be praised for their crimes?"
Seemingly getting angrier as he talked, the man added: "I see, maybe that Qixing isn't a good person either... huh?..."
The person who was talking was suddenly covered by his friend. He was puzzled at first, but when he followed the other person's gaze, he saw Ouyang looking at them with a smile.
The diners who knew that they had made a mistake just kept silent.
And Ouyang also looked away.
Although the expression on his face has not changed, the anger in his heart has risen.
But the words of this diner made him have some doubts. As far as he knew, there was only an old couple living in the ancestral house here.
Responsible for cleaning work on weekdays.
This old couple has also been working in the family for many years, and they were arranged here to allow them to retire in peace.
Why are you causing harm to people?!
Soon, the dishes were served one after another, and Ouyang Xian suppressed all the thoughts in his heart.
Eat first, then you will know after eating.

It seems that I have found an excuse...I have entered the period of creative exhaustion...The symptoms are quite similar. I feel like vomiting when I see the computer. No, I feel irritable when I think about coding, my head is empty, I just want to browse station B, and I just want to lie down.
