Douluo: Reincarnation of the Rock King, Wandering in the Mortal World

Chapter 45: What God’s Mouth? She is Paimon!

In a breakfast shop in the west of Tiandou City.

Zhongli was sipping his tea leisurely, but there was no sign of Paimon.

This matter started ten minutes ago when the two of them finished breakfast.

"Paimon, do you have any money?"

"Zhongli, you didn't forget to bring money again, did you?"

The two looked at each other, and after a glance, they were full of embarrassment.

They really don't lack money now, but when they were counting the "antiques" last night, they took out everything they had on them...

"It seems that it would be more convenient to carry the inner scene with you."

Zhongli and Paimon’s belongings, including the more valuable “antiques”, were all collected by Zhongli into the inner scene.

That is a place similar to the Chen Ge Pot.

It is worth mentioning that the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire are also here...

Ever since he didn't even show his token at the Qibao Hotel yesterday and the owner settled the bill himself, Zhongli no longer carries the token of the Qibao Glazed Tile Sect.

Only gold soul coins and some ordinary jewellery were kept in the warehouse. Even if they were targeted by thieves, there wouldn't be much loss.

Paimon's situation was different from Zhongli's. She simply took out everything she had on her body and then forgot to put it back...

For Paimon, this operation is too normal.

So, the two of them finished their breakfast but had no way to pay.

It is naturally impossible for a small shop like this to keep accounts receivable.

It is not realistic to send the bills to the Prince's Mansion and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

The store owner may not dare to pick it up.

I can only take the trouble to go home and get the money...

After a while, Paimeng came back, and with her was the Prince of Tiandou "Xue Qinghe".

She had a strange look on her face, and the look in her eyes as she looked at Zhongli and Paimon kept changing.

My goodness, she gave these two guys a storage soul guide, but they still forgot to bring money!
What is the storage soul guide used for?

Isn't it just for storing these sundries?
They don’t even have a storage soul guide!
"Guest official Zhongli..."

"Qinghe..."

Zhongli and "Xue Qinghe" looked at each other. Although his own expression did not change, he could see "Xue Qinghe"'s twitching eyelashes.

Paimeng slapped his forehead, took out a gold soul coin speechlessly, and went to the shop owner to pay the bill.

On her way back from getting the money, she happened to meet "Xue Qinghe", so she came here with "Xue Qinghe".

"Xue Qinghe" was very surprised when she saw her. It was the first time she saw Paimon acting alone, so she asked what Paimon was doing.

I never expected this. Oh my god, Zhongli probably couldn't afford to pay for the meal, so he asked Paimeng to go home and get the money...

You are really amazing, my dear Mr. Keqing!
Originally, "Xue Qinghe" planned to come to Zhongli to reminisce after dealing with state affairs, but she really couldn't help it, so she came early.

On the way to Zhongli Mansion, I happened to meet Paimeng.

After paying the bill, Paimeng looked at Zhongli with a look of despair.

"Zhongli, what kind of tea did you drink that actually costs ten gold soul coins!?"

The shop owner waived the breakfast fee, but this pot of tea was worth ten gold soul coins!

This shop owner is really something. If I had known that he would give me a free meal, I wouldn’t have bought this pot of tea.

"I can't tell you what kind of tea this is. The boss bought it for me from the shop across the street."

"It does have a light fragrance, with a sweet aftertaste..."

"Who asked you how your tea was?"

Paimeng was too helpless to complain, luckily she had a lot of gold soul coins with her, otherwise she would have to make another trip again.

After a while, the three of them left the breakfast shop amid the boss's warm greeting. "Zhongli, from the boss's smile, I saw at least five gold soul coins!"

Zhongli looked at Paimeng in surprise. When did this little guy become so smart?

You know what, the boss did make some money, but not as much as five coins. I think he made about 1.89 coins.

This is without free breakfast.

He went to the teahouse across the street to buy tea. It cost him eight gold soul coins and he sold it for ten gold soul coins, which meant he made a profit of two coins.

Fortunately, he was thoughtful enough to waive the breakfast fee.

"The tea is good, and it's worth ten gold soul coins."

Zhongli stroked his chin and said seriously.

"By the way, Qinghe, what's the matter with you?"

Without further ado, Zhongli quickly changed the subject and said.

"Xue Qinghe" is a crown princess, so she is very busy. How could she have so much time to communicate with him all day long?
The other party came here most likely for some reason.

"Ah~"

Paimeng was stunned. Zhongli's subtle change of topic caught her off guard.

Wait, something doesn’t seem right, she is the Mouth of God… Ugh!
What God's Mouth? She is Paimon!

Best guide ever!

Even if we traveled to another world, she would still be the best guide!

She must do her job as a guide well so that she won't seem so stupid.

"Yes, Qinghe, I heard you say you were looking for Zhongli before, is there something going on?"

Paimeng quickly took over Zhongli's words and spoke to "Xue Qinghe".

In order to keep her job, she tried her best!
The traveler is better, she basically doesn't talk, just let her do everything...

"???"

"It's nothing. I came here specially to thank you, sir. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would be in great danger."

Xue Qinghe said sincerely that she had another purpose besides thanking Zhongli.

That is to meet Zhongli.

After seeing Zhongli, her heart, which had been hanging in the air, seemed to settle down.

This sense of security cannot be expressed in words.

It’s like being with Zhongli, even if the sky falls, he can hold it up.

After hearing this, Paimeng's expression changed. He had been looking a little sad, but now he was beaming with joy.

She rubbed her hands and said to "Xue Qinghe" in a somewhat flattering manner: "Qinghe, hehe, thank you or something..."

I'm busy, I can't help you for nothing, right?
When in the continent of Teyvat, travelers who help others every day will still receive some Mora rewards and some kind of raw stone rewards.

Mora understands what the raw stone is used for, but Paimon really doesn't know.

Although it’s not clear, but at least it’s a reward!

Seeing this, "Xue Qinghe" looked at Paimeng in confusion. This action and expression were somewhat unfamiliar.

After thinking about it for a while, she suddenly realized!
It turns out that this little guy wants a reward!

However, she could not repay the life-saving grace. What kind of thing could she give to repay the life-saving grace?

You know, Qian Renxue's life is very valuable!
No, her life is priceless, how can it be measured by money?
Thinking of this, "Xue Qinghe" fell into deep thought, not knowing what to say or do for a moment.

After a while, "Xue Qinghe" seemed to have thought of something, and said tentatively: "I can't repay you for saving my life."

"No matter what kind of items, they are not enough to express my gratitude to Zhongli Keqing."

"Today, the Tiandou City Grand Auction..."
