Gu Sanqiu poked Hu Tao's forehead mercilessly with his fingertips.
"You brought a letter to my house in such a strange way late at night. If you say you just want me to be a takeaway boy and deliver delicious food to you, I can only say to see how I deal with you."
"Hehe, I am indeed hungry."
Hutao sat on the ground and opened her arms to Gu Sanqiu with a smile: "I'm hungry, Sanqiu, help me get up and eat."
"Tsk."
Gu Sanqiu glanced at Hu Tao with disgust, but still reached out and gently pulled her up, and then took out two plates of exquisite almond tofu.
"I bought it from Wangshu Inn. I can eat some to fill my stomach. By the way, tell me what happened to Wuwangpo."
The corner of Gu Sanqiu's mouth twitched: "There is a record in the family classics. Breathing on these blue soul fires will only make that little thing follow you for a short distance."
"I just tried it, and I was chased by a lot of soul fire. If you say there is nothing wrong here, I won't believe it."
"Hey, Sanqiu, you are so courageous. You know clearly that Wuwangpo may have problems and you still want to die. I really admire you, little girl."
Hutao clasped his hands and bowed to Gu Sanqiu, and then before the other person's face turned completely dark, he quickly explained the reason for coming to Wuwangpo this time.
Just after the two came out of the solitary room, Hutao received a tip from Wuwangpo.
It is said that some people saw many red light spots on Wuwangpo, and below these light spots there were some numb corpses walking slowly, surrounded by animal remains.
The personnel stationed at Wuwangpo of the Rebirth Hall immediately invested in the investigation. After confirming that the matter was true, they immediately reported it to Hutao and asked the hall master to handle these matters.
"So, it's really not to avoid paying my bills?"
Also, what is going on in Wuwangpo? It’s a real-life version of Resident Evil, right?
Are there various models of low-end versions of Qiqi?
Well, strictly speaking, Qiqi shouldn't be that kind of thing.
Gu Sanqiu's face was a little worried. If he hadn't held back just now, he almost wanted to tell Hutao that the best way to deal with those guys was to shoot their heads.
Wuwangpo belongs to the border area between the human world and the underworld. Soul fires, mass graves, and supernatural events have always been the standard features of this place.
But incidents like walking corpses hurting people... Gu Sanqiu frowned and thought hard, this is not unrecorded in the land of Liyue.
Gan, the appearance of this thing can be traced back to the Demon God War, right?
"So, you asked me to conquer demons?"
Gu Sanqiu pointed at himself: "Look clearly, I am a small incense devotee. Although I am not powerless, I really have no fighting ability."
"Just a little bit, you big liar."
Hu Tao made a face at Gu Sanqiu: "You can deceive other people, is it possible that you can also deceive me?"
"If you really don't have the ability to fight, then why don't you show me how you used the golden shrimp balls last time?"
"My guests have already said that you are not weak."
"Have you ever heard of the name Zhongli of Shengshengtang? He knows astronomy from the top and geography from the bottom. This is a way for me to earn extra money from the Shengshengtang, ahem, and gain cultural literacy."
Hu Tao put his hands on his hips and puffed up his chest proudly.
"Well, do you have anything else you want to argue with? There is no judge here. I allow you to say a few more words."
Seeing that Gu Sanqiu didn't react at all, Hu Tao looked over curiously.
"Eh? Sanqiu, why are you sweating so much? What's wrong with you?"
(；OдO)
It's over.
This was Gu Sanqiu's first reaction. When did he get attention from Uncle Erzhu? He really didn't feel anything about it.
To put it another way, the gods are watching you, how can you, as an ant, know it?
What if before the two souls merged into one, what would I be like now? Will it be discovered soon?
Is there really any supernatural incident in Wuwangpo? Is it a deliberate trap?
Or is it that a certain youthful sage has been secretly watching him, and by the way, there are ten or twenty terminal machines moving back and forth on his head...
"Then, what else did that Mr. Zhong Keqing say?"
Hutao looked like he suddenly realized: "Oh, so you are afraid of him, okay, okay, okay, although that guy is probably an immortal traveling in the mortal world, he is still my guest at the Rebirth Hall."
...Does this weird guy know that Zhongli is the uncle?
(′?ω?)?(._.`)
Hu Tao smiled and touched Gu Sanqiu's head: "It's okay. I'll introduce you to him another day. Zhongli is a very nice person."
This is not a question of whether a person is good or not...
Gu Sanqiu closed his eyes, and then looked at Hu Tao with a firm face: "Then, tell me what happened. Since it is your entrustment, I will definitely do my best."
Let’s finish all the nice words first, after all, I have to deal with some strange things in my head.
"Hey, I knew Sanqiu was a good person."
Hu Tao excitedly patted Gu Sanqiu on the shoulder: "So, have you brought my weapons?"
"Oh, I'm just a porter after all."
Gu Sanqiu smiled, shook his right hand twice, and the golden light spots flew out inexplicably and turned into a long-handled cane with black and red as the main color.
"I used the powder ground from the teeth of the Millennium Electric Tooth Shark to coat you with a protective film. It can also cause lightning damage when attacking. This maintenance can last for a year or two."
Gu Sanqiu hesitated for a moment: "Well, although you may think I'm verbose, when I was doing maintenance on this thing, I still found something unusual."
"Use that trick of yours sparingly."
Hu Tao was stunned for a moment, then grabbed the weapon and looked at Gu Sanqiu warily with her cheeks puffed up, like a hamster that had been stolen from her home.
"I said, maintenance and care was your Gu family's previous promise to the Rebirth Hall, but you actually gave me extra projects."
Hu Tao carefully looked at Gu Sanqiu's expression: "Well, there shouldn't be any extra charge, right?"
"Thousand years old, this kind of thing sounds very expensive. I guess I can't afford the price even if I sell the Rebirth Hall."
"Don't worry, it's my own inventory and I won't charge you for it."
...
Although he wanted to die, Gu Sanqiu still wanted to say that you could pay off the debt by selling Zhongli to me.
"唳——"
A high-pitched cry cheered up the two of them instantly. This was the giant shadow eagle in the sky warning them that something abnormal was approaching!
"Hey, is this actually your own collection? You, a guy who doesn't even go out to Liyue Port, actually have such a good thing?"
Hu Tao tightened her grip on the Humo Staff, and the faint red butterflies began to circle around her body.
"Well, the origin is a bit difficult to explain, but it is indeed my own thing."
Item: Electrodon tooth
Source: Sea of Thunder Pond
Note: One of the dominant groups in the sea directly below Wanshiyong Town's Thunder Pond, the powder made from its teeth is one of the best materials for forging, but few people can extract teeth from a shark's mouth.
This should be one of the best things he got. He secretly coated a thin layer of this powder on his kitchen knife, and the cut ingredients gave him an electric shock.
If there hadn't been a fire at that time, the Gu family's kitchen would have had an overload reaction.
Red dots of light began to flash in the distance, and Gu Sanqiu whistled. The giant shadow eagle in the sky lowered its altitude, but did not land on Gu Sanqiu's shoulders.
The fact that they have an air combat capability is an advantage, and Gu Sanqiu would only let him down if he was mentally retarded.
The reason for lowering the height is mainly to allow the giant shadow eagle to respond to the enemy's offensive faster, and to give Hutao and himself more time to react.
"By the way, if we get into a fight later, remember to shoot your head."
Gu Sanqiu took out the Demon-Conquering Revolver, his expression gradually becoming indifferent.
