Chapter 41 Purple-haired cat-headed Keqing, right? Where did you come from, you devil?
While eating at Huyan Street, when talking about how to select night-blooming jasmine, Zhongli also showed off some high-class knowledge: the brighter the night-blooming jasmine is in the dark when it is cooked in a pot, the better its quality.
However, upon learning that Zhongli wanted to buy the Night-Mounted Stone to bid farewell to the Emperor, the shrewd businessman offered it for half price.
She even broke down in tears: "Huh? What's wrong with me? Crying like this, my luck is going to slip away, haha..."
Witnessing this scene, Yingmei truly realized the importance of Morax, the Geo Archon, in the hearts of the people of Liyue.
Zhongli himself remained calm: "Now that we've made our selection, let's take the Night Stone to the Jade Capital Terrace, which is the venue I reserved."
Yingmei had no objection, but Paimon was the first to react: "Wait, we haven't paid yet!"
"Oh, sorry, I forgot to pay again."
"let me see..."
Zhongli belatedly fumbled around for a while, his face showing a "sure enough" expression: "Hmm... I didn't bring it..."
Yingmei and Paimon: "..." numb.jpg
I thought it was outrageous enough that I was holding my own funeral, but I never expected that I would actually go out without Mora!
Seeing this, Gu Jing smiled and wrote in his diary: [I guess Gan Yu is probably thinking, "The Emperor must have a deeper meaning behind doing this."]
However...
【Heh~】
He stopped recording here, and everyone understood what he meant: What deeper meaning could there be? He was clearly seriously ill!
Embarrassed, Gan Yu and the others covered their faces: It's a shame they laughed at Mondstadt's Wind God for being so unreliable; now it seems even the Emperor has his unreliable moments.
With her cheeks flushed, Ke Qing immediately made the final decision: A support project must be established to ensure the Emperor's financial well-being after his retirement!
******
[Yujingtai]
Because a certain generous benefactor, Dada Duck, had previously sponsored an event with funds, Mora did not shortchange customers when purchasing the Nightstone.
However, when she arrived at Yujingtai, Keqing had been waiting for a long time. Upon seeing Zhongli and the others, she quickly came forward and said, "Good afternoon! I am Keqing. I apologize for being busy with official duties earlier. I heard that you were preparing for the Sending-Off-Immortals Ceremony?"
Zhongli nodded slightly: "Indeed, what instructions does Lord Yuheng have?"
"..."
Upon hearing the address "Sir," the purple-haired cat-headed girl almost lost her composure: "I dare not presume to give instructions. To be honest, I'm actually here to provide funding."
"Inviting and sending off spirits are ancient traditions in Liyue and major events for the entire region. This expense cannot be borne by you alone, sir."
As she spoke, Keqing had the Thousand Rock Army behind her bring up several Mora bags.
Paimon flew forward, opened the package, and exclaimed in surprise, "So much Mora! And there are receipts too! Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands..."
"My God! Every single ticket is worth 100 million Mora!"
Zhongli: "..." Old Dragon frowns.jpg
With a slight brow furrow, Zhongli felt that something was amiss, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. However, in any case, the fact that Qixing remembered the ritual of sending off immortals was undoubtedly a good thing.
At this moment, Ke Qing also brought the matter to a close: "In short, these funds are Qi Xing's token of appreciation, please accept them, sir."
Zhongli nodded noncommittally: "Understood, I will definitely handle the ceremonial ceremony for the immortals properly."
"Then I'll leave it to you!"
"Mr. Zhongli!"
Turning away, Ke Qing couldn't help but smile, and Gu Jing couldn't resist making a note of it in his diary.
Old Zhong must be very happy that the Seven Stars were able to support the Immortal Sending Ceremony.
[However, what can be said about Ah Qing's overly businesslike attitude?]
That really shows they don't take me seriously at all.
[Is that Keqing with purple hair and a cat-like head?]
This grudge!
I've got it!
Seeing this, Yingmei and the others couldn't help but chuckle. Keqing, who hadn't gone far, almost twisted her ankle: Who has purple-haired cat hair?! This is called double buns!!!
******
The incense used for worshipping the gods after the Night-Mooring Stone, but after asking Yingmei, I learned that Shenhe was currently being taken on a trip by Ganyu. The lonely old crane consciously left the group, otherwise, if he had stayed by Zhongli's side, he would have inevitably been exposed.
However, after purchasing fresh Neon Flowers from Bolai's shop, Zhongli herself did not participate in the process of making the perfume balm, but instead said that she would wait at the nearby Seven Gods Statue.
"So--"
See you later.
"..."x3
Watching his figure disappear from sight, Paimon was speechless: "Now I understand why you said Ying was just a tool."
"It's clearly their own business, but these guys don't care at all."
"In the end, it was Ying and I who worked ourselves to the bone to solve it!"
"That's absolutely outrageous!"
Gu Jing smiled and ruffled her hair: "That's what you say, but you're happy when someone treats you to a meal?"
"No way!"
One meal isn't enough.
"At least two meals!"
Hehe~~
Looking at Paimon's beaming face, Yingmei belatedly realized something: it seems that... she had taken on so many commissions because of this guy, right?
What kind of guide is this?
[Regarding the matter of being used as a tool by these Teyvats (Part 2)...]
How should I put it? This is definitely a sad thing.
However, as the law of conservation of smiles states: smiles don't appear out of thin air, nor do they disappear inexplicably; they simply transfer from one person's face to another.
Seeing that Yingmei and Paimon finally realized the problem, I couldn't help but laugh a little.
However, it's not a big problem.
There's going to be a good show soon.
Moreover, compared to the mid-to-late game where you're constantly getting hurt, the early game is quite enjoyable.
If you're really feeling unhappy, I can offer a suggestion: comedy is essentially tragedy.
Happiness and contentment arise from comparison.
Most happiness is often built upon the suffering of others.
Yingmei and the others leaned back strategically: Where did you come from, you devil?!
******
However, Yingmei and the others soon discovered that Gu Jingzhen was not lying!
Bringing the newly purchased Neon Flower to Chunxiang Kiln, the owner of Chunxiang Kiln, Ying'er, also demonstrated Ying'er's cornering skills to everyone.
"Oh? The guest actually wants to make their own perfume balm?"
"The method of making perfume is actually quite similar to that of alchemy."
"Like this, first you should hold the pestle and mortar gently and tenderly."
"Make sure your palms are firmly pressed together so it doesn't slip off." 0.6
"Then stir it at the rhythm you're most comfortable with."
"Until the juice of the rainbow flower seeps out."
"This excellent 'Rainbow Flower' essential oil is now complete."
"The second step is to boil it."
"Put it in water and simmer over low heat until the water is almost evaporated."
"Guests need to prepare essential oils beforehand."
"I'll be waiting for you here."
Everyone: "..." (Their heads were buzzing.)
Looking at Ying'er's charming smile, Yingmei and the others felt that there was something wrong with what Miss Ying'er said. However, since they had received some guidance from Gu Jing, the shock brought to everyone by this Liyue racing god was not that great.
Gu Jing responded with interest: "Then you'd better clean this pot before we get back here—of course, I'm talking about this pot."

Chapter 42 So...who is Coconut Sheep? United we stand!
Even after all three perfumes were made, Yingmei and the others were still somewhat dazed. These two guys were simply terrifying. They could spout blush-inducing raunchy jokes at will, enjoying themselves while inadvertently harming their listeners.
Before leaving, Gu Jing suddenly stopped as if he had thought of something: "Oh, right, Miss Ying'er, I'd like to buy some coconut milk later."
Do you know where to find healthy and delicious milk?
Ying'er smiled even more upon hearing this, but did not give an answer immediately. Instead, she glanced at Yingmei with great interest.
