Su Hao nodded very seriously. Jiuqi Ren and Ella, who were standing to the side, were also quite curious about what kind of small gift Zhong Li had given them.
After all, it was extremely rare for Hisaki Shinobu and Ella to see a serious expression on Su Hao's face, as if the things recorded in this book were worth Su Hao's serious attention.
It seems that apart from the two things uploaded by Lei Dianzhen, nothing else has ever stumped Su Hao.
After receiving Zhong Li's gift, Su Hao's mood improved significantly; he felt that today was his lucky day.
Not only did they obtain a large amount of materials from the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard, but they also successfully sold the items at Guiyan Pavilion, getting a bunch of materials for free.
Finally, he even obtained Zhongli's [inheritance].
Su Hao had gained so much today that he couldn't help but wonder if all sorts of troubles would come his way.
After all, when good things happen, bad things will inevitably follow.
"And one more thing."
Just as Su Hao was about to enjoy tea and listen to stories, Zhong Li spoke up again.
"Hmm?"
Su Hao, Ella, and Jiuqi Ren looked at Zhong Li again.
Zhongli looked at Ella, her image reflected in his pupils, and said calmly, "Your name is Ella, right?"
"Hmm." Ella nodded slightly. She also had great respect for Zhongli. After all, anyone would respect someone as knowledgeable and insightful as him.
Zhongli looked at Ella and asked, "Do you remember your surname?"
Within the group, Zhong Li naturally learned about many things between Su Hao and Ella in the past.
Su Hao is a fallen nobleman, while Ella is an orphan who inexplicably appeared in Inazuma, and her origins are completely unknown.
Even the Eightfold Divine Child didn't know where Ella came from. He only knew that before meeting Su Hao, she first appeared near the island, and then somehow ended up in Inazuma Castle.
Finally, Inazuma encountered an unusually heavy snowfall that year, and many Inazuma residents froze to death at home because they were completely unprepared.
If nothing unexpected had happened, Ella would have frozen to death on that snowy night, but Su Hao happened to be out that day and picked her up.
Ella has amnesia; she only remembers that her name is Ella, where she came from, and what her surname is, but she has no idea.
"..." Ella shook her head, looking at Zhongli with some confusion, not understanding why he asked that question.
"It's nothing." Zhongli shook his head slightly. He took out a talisman and placed it in front of Ella, saying calmly, "This is a talisman passed down in my family that has no taboos."
“In that battle, I saw potential in you. You can become even stronger. This Unrestricted Talisman will allow you to meet immortals and learn immortal techniques.”
Although it was in public, for some reason, everyone around was listening intently to the storyteller's tale and didn't hear anything about the "Talisman of No Taboos".
Ella looked at the Unfettered Talisman with a puzzled expression, not quite understanding why such a talisman could be used to learn Taoist magic.
"!!!!!!"
Hisagi Shinobu exclaimed in surprise in a low voice, "This thing hasn't been lost yet?! Mr. Zhongli, you actually possess the Unrestricted Talisman!!!!"
Jiuqi Ren was very surprised, and Su Hao was also quite surprised. He glanced at Zhong Li a few more times.
Obviously, no one expected that Zhongli would give Ella the Hundred Taboos Talisman. How did this happen?
Did Zhongli see potential in Ella, and thus specially grant her the Unrestricted Talisman? Speaking of which, in the group live stream…
Zhongli did seem to have said that Ella possessed the qualities of a celestial being, but why did he ask for Ella's surname before granting her the "Unrestricted Talisman"?
Could there be some deeper meaning behind this?
Su Hao was deep in thought, while Hisagi Shinobu was astonished.
Ella looked up at Zhongli, pushed the Unrestricted Talisman back, and asked calmly, "Why?"
The simple three words made Jiuqi Ren and Su Hao a little anxious.
Both Jiuqi Ren and Su Hao were screaming in their hearts.
"Take it! This is a talisman with no taboos! Once you accept it, you can go to the immortals to learn immortal arts."
Chapter 108 The Unrestricted Talisman, the Young Master Arrives at the Door (Third Update)
"why?"
Ella pushed the Unfettered Talisman back. She looked at Zhongli but did not accept the ticket that most people believed could lead to immortality.
If it were anyone else, they would probably have already accepted the Unfettered Talisman and thanked Zhongli.
Yes, this includes Su Hao and Jiu Qiren, because the two of them are well aware of the value of the Unrestricted Talisman.
Kuki Shinobu had studied in Liyue, so she naturally knew what the "Tag of No Taboos" was. It was a token of agreement between the Rock King and the people, containing the power to exorcise evil spirits. People could use this token to seek an audience with the immortals.
Furthermore, given Ella's aptitude, if she were to meet an immortal, she would undoubtedly be noticed and taken as a disciple to learn immortal techniques.
This was a foreseeable fact; both Su Hao and Jiuqi Ren could see this future.
But now, Ella has pushed the ticket back, which makes Su Hao and Jiuqi Ren anxious.
What if Mr. Zhongli suddenly changes his mind, saying that this item is not meant for you, and then puts away the Unfettered Talisman? Wouldn't that be terrible?
“I can sense it.” Zhongli looked at Ella, picked up the teapot beside him, filled his cup with water, and said calmly, “You want to become stronger, but what you need to become stronger now is not just strength.”
Ella frowned slightly. She didn't quite understand what Zhongli meant, but she could sense that Zhongli was trying to tell her something.
Your heart is lost.
Zhongli took a sip of tea, slowly closed his eyes as if savoring the aroma, and calmly said, "If things continue like this, it will be detrimental to your strength development."
"Furthermore, this 'No Taboos Talisman' is useless to me. Although it is a ancestral heirloom, I have no reason to see the immortals, and neither will my descendants."
"If that's the case, why not give the token to someone who needs it?"
Zhongli's words silenced Ella.
Finally, under the expectant gazes of Jiuqi Ren and Su Hao, Ella placed the Hundred Taboos Talisman in front of her and looked at Zhong Li, continuing, "Why did you ask me my surname?"
Ella didn't care about her surname; she had originally wanted to share the same surname as Su Hao and be called Su Ella.
However, the young master said that the name sounded strange and that Ella was a better name.
Therefore, Ella has no surname, only a given name, simply Ella.
“………………” Zhongli slowly opened his eyes. He looked at Ella and said calmly, “It was just a casual question. There’s no need to take it to heart.”
Ella stared at Zhong Li for a while, her attitude making it clear that she didn't believe him.
However, since the other party had entrusted her with such a precious "Unrestricted Talisman," she couldn't say much.
"I will remember this favor." Ella did not refuse Zhongli's request because she was indeed confused, and at the same time, she wanted to become stronger.
After saying this, Ella put away the Unrestricted Talisman and placed it in the pocket of her maid outfit.
“I’ve got it.” Zhongli nodded with a smile, then looked up at the storyteller beside him.
At this moment, a subtle change occurred in the surroundings, and the noise became slightly more lively.
Su Hao blinked. He sensed something was amiss. It seemed that Zhong Li had used some kind of ability to prevent the conversation from being known to others.
Although it is unknown when Zhongli used this ability, he did so to avoid being targeted by the Fools or the general public.
After all, the reputation of the Unfettered Talisman was so renowned that ordinary passersby would immediately gather around upon hearing it.
And, Zhongli should know that the Fools wanted a Talisman of No Taboos, right? He gave it to me? What about Tartaglia then?
Forget about all that. Zhongli himself is the Rock King Emperor, and he can even personally draw a talisman of no taboos and give it to D'Artagnan, this wallet.
"call."
Hisagi Shinobu quietly breathed a sigh of relief. She was naturally happy for Ella after seeing her accept the Unrestricted Talisman.
Because no matter what, Hisagi Shinobu saw Ella's desire to become stronger.
The other person strives for perfection in everything, and although I don't know if this has anything to do with that manual for the perfect and elegant maid, it's not bad.
With the Unrestricted Talisman, according to Liyue, Ella can now seek a celestial destiny, and with her talent, she will definitely gain the recognition of the immortals.
After delivering the items, Zhongli continued to drink tea and listen to the storyteller without saying another word. He listened as the storyteller recounted a history that was both familiar and somewhat unfamiliar to him.
Su Hao was also drinking tea and listening to stories here. He found it quite novel, as there weren't many entertainment options back in Inazuma.
There was nothing he could do about it. When Su Hao transmigrated here, his family had already fallen on hard times. Although he owned three large houses in Daozhi City, he didn't have much Mora on him.
Before rescuing Ella, Su Hao had been thinking about how to earn Mora, and after rescuing Ella, he was still aiming for that goal.
There wasn't much time for leisure, and at that time, the Heavenly Commander and the Kansei Commander began targeting the Society Commander.
As the head of the company that organizes various events, we were suppressed by the two major heads in those years. We had no choice but to keep a low profile and hold all our events very discreetly, as if they had never been held at all.
Liyue is different. You can listen to storytelling and music, and there will even be a ceremony to invite immortals. During my stay in Liyue Harbor, should I find an opportunity to listen to Mr. Yun's music?
When I watched the Goddess Split the Temple storyline, I really liked the song sung by Mr. Yun.
Just as Su Hao was thinking this, the storyteller, after recounting a key plot point, snapped his fan shut and said earnestly, "To find out what happens next, stay tuned for the next episode!"
There was a chorus of boos from the crowd, but everyone was already used to it.
Most storytellers leave this one sentence at the crucial point, but when the other person comes on stage again, what they say will be even more exciting.
"Alright, now that I've finished my tea, I'm leaving."
Zhong Li stood up, handed the things to Su Hao and Ella, and didn't plan to stay any longer. He said they could communicate in the group if they had any questions.
"Aren't we going back together?" Su Hao asked Zhong Li. Why did he specifically choose to stay next to the Hall of Rebirth? Was it for the Sage Walnut? Of course not!
His target was Zhongli. As long as Zhongli remained a guest of the Hall of Rebirth, his safety would be greatly guaranteed.
Putting everything else aside, given the current relationship between Su Hao and Zhong Li, even if all the Fatui Enforcers came to capture him in Liyue Harbor, Zhong Li would intervene to stop them.
Even if the Ice Queen herself were to appear, it wouldn't make a difference!
“No need.” Zhongli shook his head slightly and said calmly, “Next, I’m going to visit an old friend, which isn’t on your way.”
"If you run into Master Hu on your way back, when you ask her to cook, don't come up with any strange ideas. She's not Master Xiangling from Wanmin Hall..."
By the end, Zhongli's voice clearly became somewhat helpless. In fact, he had returned to the Hall of Rebirth last night.
After all, most of the work at the Rebirth Hall is done at night, and since he is a guest elder of the Rebirth Hall, he naturally has to do something for the Rebirth Hall.
