Chapter 433 The Great Crisis at the Hall of Rebirth
Chapter 433 "Big Crisis" in the Hall of Rebirth
Time, three weeks have passed.
It has just entered June, and it is almost July in the blink of an eye.
Summer has officially entered Liyue.
On this day, the weather was not sultry, but Hutao was lying on the chair in the backyard of the Purity Hall, not wanting to move at all.
"Oh my god, please let it rain."
She looked at the not-so-grey sky and muttered to herself.
"This year is really true. It rained continuously at the beginning of the new year and it has been raining for a long time. Now that summer is approaching, the day is actually filled with dark clouds."
"What is this all about?"
At this time, some noises from the porch attracted her attention.
The door curtain was lifted and Zhongli walked out.
"Zhongli!"
When Hutao saw Zhongli walking slowly, his eyes lit up and asked, "Do you know when the dark clouds in the sky will disperse?"
"Well" Zhong Li looked up at the sky after hearing this, then lowered his head and explained to Hu Tao: "It's not really a dark cloud, it's just that the cloud layer is unusually thick."
"But when they will disperse, I really don't know."
After saying that, Zhongli had already walked to Hu Tao.
He smiled and asked Hu Tao, who was lying on the chair: "Why has Hall Master Hu been like this these past two days?"
"I was about to go out just now, and I happened to meet Miss Yiguan who said that you have been sick for the past two days, which is a bit worrying, and asked me to come and see you."
"Can you tell me what's wrong with you?"
"It's not because of this crazy weather." Hutao turned over on the recliner and changed into a comfortable posture and said lazily, "It's already summer, and business in Liyue Port happened to be bad, so I just thought
Go to the wild and send those lonely ghosts away."
"But we encountered such a spooky weather, which made me lose all energy. Not to mention, I went out to search for it last week, and I didn't find a single ghost!"
"It stands to reason that this wouldn't be the case!"
"In previous years, I would go out for a walk during this time period. In the past, I would encounter at least three or five lost little ghosts. Occasionally, there would be many. I am so busy!"
"But this year, I didn't meet any of them!"
At this point, Hu Tao looked at Zhongli and looked like she was about to cry: "Zhongli, do you think our Shengshengtang is about to go bankrupt?"
Zhong Li ignored Hu Tao's antics, but he also understood why the other party acted like this.
There was no business in Liyue Port, and there was not a single ghost in the wild. This made Hutao feel as if he was suddenly unemployed and at a loss.
Feeling the energy fluctuations in the earth veins under his feet, Zhongli joked in a rare way: "Is Hall Master Hu actually afraid of losing his job?"
"I won't be unemployed!" Seeing that Zhongli didn't cooperate with her antics, Hutao stuck out her tongue at Zhongli and said arrogantly, "In the worst case, I'll sell the Hall of Rebirth to your family!"
Sell the Palace of Purity?
What's the idea?
Zhong Li looked at Hu Tao with a serious look on his face, but he was still more puzzled.
He asked curiously: "Why would you consider selling the Hall of Purity to your family? Didn't Hall Master Hu say that he would inherit the legacy of the old hall master and protect the Hall of Purity?"
"It's not really a sale. Strictly speaking, it's a cooperation." Seeing Zhongli's serious expression, Hutao quickly explained.
"Yan Fei came to me before and said she wanted to discuss a cooperation. It seems to be related to the 'universal medical care' policy being implemented in Liyue Port."
"Yan Fei said that she wants to cooperate with the Shengsheng Hall. If those people who have [medical insurance] pass away in the future, they will launch a plan that I don't understand and leave all funeral arrangements to our Shengsheng Hall.
Handle it."
"They also said that this was what Ouyang meant and that it was a one-stop service."
As he spoke, Hu Tao's tone slowly dropped, his brows slowly wrinkled, and his face showed a look of thought.
Then, she stood up with a sudden "pop" and shouted with a look of realization on her face: "I know!"
"I know why we have no business at the Rebirth Hall!"
Hu Tao looked at Zhongli with burning eyes and said with certainty: "Ouyang must have caused all this!"
That confident and affirmative look made Zhongli look askance at him - what do you know?
Feeling that he had discovered Hu Tao, who was busy, he said excitedly: "Ouyang must be the evil person who made the Shengsheng Hall have no business!"
"I finally understand why there is less and less business in Liyue Port. It's all because of the 'universal medical care' proposed by Ouyang!"
"Although it has not been extended to the whole of Liyue yet, it is only being trialled in Liyue Port, but when every common person can afford medical treatment, our Goshen Hall will naturally have no business!!!"
"Zhongli, are you right about my guess?!"
The result is correct, but the process is actually quite interesting?
Zhong Li glanced at Hu Tao unexpectedly, and retorted with a smile: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are the most basic principles. How can Hall Master Hu blame others?"
"Hey" Hutao, who was exposed ruthlessly, smiled sheepishly, "Isn't it because I have no motivation? I just want to build an enemy and then defeat him!"
"Oh? Then Hall Master Hu has thought of a way to defeat Ouyang?!"
"Of course!"
"I'm quite curious, can you tell me?"
"Okay!" Hutao blew gently on his palms and said proudly, "Ouyang is Liyue's Seven Stars, and as the head of your noble family, he is very rich now!"
"So head-on confrontation is definitely not possible, we can only outwit!"
"So I decided to go find Yan Fei now and agree to her request."
"We will cooperate with your family after we go to the Rebirth Hall!"
"Let's get Maura first!"
Sure enough.
Zhongli was not surprised at all by Hu Tao's decision to "join if you can't beat him".
Over the years, Zhongli has slowly adapted to her strange brain circuitry.
Hu Tao is obviously a passionate activist and wants to do it immediately after making a decision.
"Zhongli, I'll leave the Hall of Rebirth to you! I'll go out to find Yanfei now!"
After saying that, Hutao disappeared in a flash.
It became quiet in the backyard.
Thick clouds covered the sky. Although it was depressing, it was not without its benefits.
At least the cool breeze makes this summer less stuffy.
Zhongli lay down on the chair, folded his hands on his stomach, looked at the clouds in the sky, and fell into deep thought.
Ouyang's situation was somewhat beyond all his speculations.
Although this is normal, after all, he himself doesn't know much about the laws of heaven.
But now Ouyang's situation is obviously quite different from what he expected.
He originally thought that it was just a matter of modifying the rules of earth vein operation.
With the heavenly authority that Ouyang now has, it won't take so long.
Moreover, the strange phenomenon in the sky now is only on the surface, and the hidden danger lies in the earth's veins.
The rules of operation of the earth's veins have been quietly changing, but because Ouyang hasn't woken up, he doesn't know the specific situation.
What he didn't say to Hu Tao was that the depression in her heart that felt gloomy in the sky was not an illusion, she was just looking for the wrong person.
Under the slowly changing earth line rules, ability users will have to go through a period of "adaptation period."
But because Ouyang didn't wake up, he couldn't predict whether something would go wrong.
Not only that, when he went back to check before, he felt that Ouyang's condition was not quite right at the moment.
The dual division of soul and body is not a good thing in any case.
Am I too impatient?
Zhongli, who had some doubts about himself, looked at the sky, his thoughts drifting further and further away.
At this time, a sound of flapping wings came from the backyard.
Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun took a look at the courtyard on the wall and found that there was no one around, so he cautiously came to the courtyard.
She came to a stop not far from Zhongli and lowered her head to show respect.
