At noon the next day, after finishing the Red Lotus Abyss and the battlefield, Jun Luoyu reluctantly went to Yujing Terrace to participate in the final ceremony.
Zhongli stood by the desk and had been waiting for a long time.
"Old man, I'm here, we can start."
Jun Luoyu greeted Zhongli and stood next to him waiting.
Zhongli nodded, smeared ointment on the Yebo stone ornaments, hung them on the Seven Gods Kite one by one and flew them out.
Then he lit the eternal incense in the incense burner, placed a glazed lily that he had picked up from Yujingtai in the morning next to the incense burner, and finally picked up the dust-cleansing bell with one hand, and waved something that Jun Luoyu couldn't understand at all with the other hand.
Gesture.
The smoke of eternal incense curls up, surrounding the flying kites, making them ethereal and beautiful; the dust-cleaning bell shakes gently, making a sweet sound; the glass lily sways gently in the breeze,
Combined with Zhongli's solemn expression and gestures, people can't help but feel sad.
It's a pity that although this scene is so beautiful, Jun Luoyu doesn't feel it at all.
No matter who you are, after seeing the hanging picture "Zhongli, Tombstone, Scissorhands", it will be difficult for anyone to have any sympathy for this scene.
The eternal incense burned continuously and was finally exhausted, and the melody played by the dust-cleaning bell gradually came to an end. Zhongli made the last mudra, cut the kite strings, and watched them fly higher and higher with the breeze.
"The final contract has been made."
Jun Luoyu also stared at the kites, but he was not interested in who would control Liyue. He just wanted to know where these kites were going.
"In this way, the ceremony of sending immortals is completed. The traveler said that he experienced the gap between rich and poor. What about you? Did you gain any insights?"
The kite had completely disappeared from the sight of the two of them. Zhongli took back his target and looked at Jun Luoyu.
"Enlightenment? I have a big mouth at the top, but a broken leg at the bottom. That's all I have an understanding of. You should know that I have never been to school since I was a child. I can barely read and write, so there is no enlightenment." p>
Tivat's writing is different from Jun Luoyu's previous life. He never went to school after time travel, and his parents taught him slowly.
Zhongli laughed when he heard what Jun Luoyu said:
"Haha, that's true. Although there are some private schools teaching in Liyue, there are not many people who are willing to send their children to study. You can say Xumi, most people in the Seven Kingdoms are illiterate. Your child still has parents who are willing to teach literacy.
It’s rare.”
"Then it has nothing to do with me. This is something that higher-ups should consider. It has nothing to do with me, an ordinary adventurer."
Jun Luoyu still doesn't stick to the pan and doesn't say anything useful.
But Zhongli deeply believed it:
"Yes, these are things that the leadership should consider. I have also thought about developing education, but the people would rather let their children learn more skills, and not many are willing to send their children to study first. I hope that Liyue will be completely handed over.
After being managed by the people, Qixing can do better. After all, Emperor Yanwang has passed away now.
Jun Luoyu almost stopped laughing. He seemed to have seen this scene in Mondstadt. A certain bard also said that the wind god was gone long ago. It can only be said that they are the two countries with the best relationship in Teyvat.
But Jun Luoyu knew that this matter was not over yet, and there would definitely be trouble on the Fools' side. He also wanted to hear Zhongli's thoughts, so he asked:
"Old man, it seems that the Fools will not give up because of the death of Emperor Yanwang. If nothing else, the young master Dadalia has been looking for you to get information."
Zhongli, who had completely resigned, gradually began to move closer to the likes of Wendy Jun Luoyu. The old man walked down the Yujing Terrace with his hands behind his back. Looking at the direction, he seemed to want to go to Heyu Teahouse to listen to a play.
"This has nothing to do with me. After Liyue loses the Yan King, it is Qixing's job to protect Liyue. This is also their test. If they can't even do this well, then I will arrange another one
Immortal came to take over my job and protect Liyue for me openly."
Speaking of this, Zhongli looked at Jun Luoyu again and continued:
"Don't always think about being lazy, and don't learn from Mondstadt's God of Wind. You are no longer an ordinary person. When Liyue encounters any danger, you have an obligation to help."
"Yes, yes, I will definitely help if necessary. Then, old man, I will go to the Hall of Life to return my clothes first."
Jun Luoyu nodded. Although he had abandoned his house to fish, he still wouldn't fish when it was time to take action.
"Go ahead, remember that you can't do your job even if you have three bowls at night. You also have a place in this thank you dinner. Also, help me get my money bag when you go to the Rebirth Hall. I forgot to bring it when I went out."
Zhongli said it so matter-of-factly that Jun Luoyu couldn't be sure whether Zhongli really wanted to treat him to dinner or whether he wanted him to run errands and get his wallet.
The two of them separated from Yujing in the audience. Zhongli didn't bring his wallet but still chose to go to Heyu Teahouse to drink tea without fear of being detained to wash the dishes. Jun Luoyu took off the uniform of Shengshengtang, wrapped it up, and went to Hutao to return his clothes. Jun Luoyu knocked on the door of the Hall of Purity, and sat in the reception room waiting for Hu Tao. In the past few days, Liyue was under martial law, and with the death of Emperor Yan, Hu Tao had no intention of going out to play these days. p>
After all, there is no way to promote the business of the Rebirth Hall, and Hu Tao has nothing to do when he goes out.
"Hey, why do you have time to come to me? Is the ceremony for sending immortals over?"
Hutao knew about the ceremony of sending immortals, which also fell into the business scope of the Rebirth Hall. Zhongli had told her about it.
"Well, I'll return the clothes."
Jun Luoyu put the uniform of Shengshengtang on the stool aside, took out the Shanyin Brocade Balm from the pendant and handed it to Hutao:
"No, this is for you."
The pleasant fragrance spread. Hutao took the red box, sniffed it, and asked curiously:
"Is this balm? Where did it come from? Why did you suddenly think of giving me something? Today is not a special day."
According to normal people's thinking, you should say "I specially prepared this for you" at this moment, and then you can successfully harvest Hutao's favorability +1, but Jun Luoyu is a straight man who has never been in love in his life, so he replied
Very irritating:
"Oh, didn't I help Mr. Zhongli prepare for the ceremony to send immortals? He said he needed ointment. I brewed three styles in total. One suitable one was used for the ceremony to send immortals, and there were two extra ones for use.
If it doesn’t come up, I’ll take it back. This one is for you, and there’s another one for Xiangling.”
Hu Tao was quite happy at first, but after hearing what Jun Luoyu said, she blew up the temple on the spot.
She slapped the box on the table, took out the staff of Humo from the Eye of God, turned it over and stabbed Jun Luoyu with the tail of the gun, and beat him outside the living hall.
"You...are so angry with me, get out, get out! Go away!"
Jun Luoyu kept dodging Hutao's Humo Staff, but he still didn't understand the situation:
"What are you doing! What are you doing again! I kindly gave you ointment, and you treat me like this? Even if it's leftover from the ceremony to give to the immortals, it's never been used. This is brand new! And it's very expensive!" Hu Tao became even more angry, and immediately turned the head of the gun and stabbed it with the tip of the Humo Staff.
"How dare you say this is what's left! I'll stab you to death!"
Although Hutao said she was very angry, she didn't use any strength in her hands. She said it was a fight, but it was mostly venting her anger.
However, the space in the Hall of Rebirth was small, and Jun Luoyu had no place to hide. The employees ran away one by one, and they didn't know where to look in the corner. Jun Luoyu could only summon the key of dominance and turn it into a shield to block him.
,Separate yourself from Hutao.
"I said, if you don't like it, you don't like it. Why are you hitting me! I won't give it to you if you're like this!"
"You dare!"
After poking at Hutao for a long time, he felt relieved a lot. He put away the Humo Staff and sat back, put the box in his pocket, pouted and glared at Jun Luoyu angrily.
"If there's anything else, just leave! Now I'm angry when I see you!"
Jun Luoyu saw Hutao put away the staff of Humo, but he did not dare to let down his guard. He still held the shield transformed from the key of domination, cautiously stretched out his head and said:
"Okay, okay, then I'll go. But I really need to tell you something. Now that the ceremony of sending immortals is over, there may be big moves on the Fools' side. When I was in Mondstadt, I heard that they seemed to
I have some ideas about other divine powers.
At this time, Emperor Yan has passed away, and the Immortal Ancestor Fashen has been hidden by Qixing. Those people will not let it go. You stay at home honestly these days, no matter what trouble happens in Liyue, don't run around, wait for my news
, do you know?"
Hutao turned her head and didn't look at him. Her body was very dishonest, but her mouth was very honest:
"I know, I know, you Jun Luoyu is an immortal and has a special source of information. I will listen to you and just stay at home and wait. Are you done? Leave quickly after saying this, or I will poke you!"
After Hutao drove away Jun Luoyu, she didn't clear the table and returned to the room with the balm.
"Damn salted fish, you deserve to be single! Hmm, this smells like Shanyin Brocade. I am in charge of the Rebirth Hall. It is not wrong to say that I am a daughter of a rich family. This ointment is also very suitable for my status. It's strange,
This salted fish never understands a girl’s thoughts, so how can he choose the ointment so accurately?”
Hutao placed the balm next to the vase, took off her shoes and lay on the bed.
"No, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. After he is done with his work, I will punish him by taking me out for a play. The affairs of the Rebirth Hall... will be left to Mr. Zhongli!"
So, Jun Luoyu gave him a balm and successfully tricked both himself and Zhongli into it.
But he had no idea. After coming out of the Hall of Purity, he straightened his clothes and walked back to the Hall of Wanmin.
