"Okay, let's get together again next time we have the chance!" Bennett said goodbye to them.

Shen Qin: There won’t be a next time. You better climb up for me. If it weren’t for you, the convoy wouldn’t have been dragged into the ghost zone of Wuwangpo.

Kelly waved politely: "Goodbye, Brother Bennett."

Hu Tao looked at Bennett's back with a smile, and said with some regret: "It would be great if he was from Liyue. He would definitely become a high-quality partner of Wangsheng Hall."

Shen Qin stood beside him with a frown on his face. Partner? He betrayed his teammates and you collected their bodies, right? He arranged the people clearly.

"Master Hu, what are your plans next? Are you going back to Liyue Harbor?" He looked at Hu Tao, who was still looking at Bennett reluctantly.

"Yes, I came to Wuwangpo to solve the problem of the ghost domain. Now that the matter has been resolved, I naturally have to return to the city! However, if you don't mind, I can also take you to visit some 'interesting' attractions in Liyue~"

Kurumi pulled the spirit out of his sleeve and twisted his fingers around its tail.

These "interesting" places are probably as interesting as Wuwangpo!

"So cute! Sister Walnut, can Klee touch it?" Klee looked at the marshmallow-like soul in her hand with greed.

"Sure!" Walnut handed it to Klee.

Klee tried to touch it carefully with her hand, but her fingers went through its body.

"Eh? I can't touch it!"

“Hahahaha—of course! It’s a soul. Ordinary means can’t touch its body. It’s just like when you blow up those souls with bombs. It just looks scary, but it can’t actually hurt them at all.”

Shen Qin stroked his chin and observed the soul carefully: "It's not an ordinary soul, right?"

"Yes, it is the enhanced version of the super soul specially provided by Wangsheng Hall. It has very powerful power!" She let go of the soul's tail, "Come on, show us one!"

The soul's expression froze, and it looked at her "resentfully". Of course, there was no change in its facial expression, but everyone seemed to be able to guess the emotion it wanted to express.

"What are you still standing there for? You don't want me to send you to the afterlife, do you?" Walnut glared at it.

The soul sighed and closed his eyes. Although no one felt any energy fluctuations, five fist-sized stones floated up into the air and then shuttled through the half-man-high grass in front of them like five sharp swords.

Whizzing--

Along with the sound of stones breaking through the air, weeds fell down in patches, and soon a large patch of grass had fallen down.

"This ability is suitable for harvesting crops!" Shen Qin nodded in praise.

"That's right, and we can also control the harvested grain piles!" Walnut nodded in agreement.

The two looked at each other—their strange train of thought connected!

She clapped her hands to call back the soul and said with a smile, "Master Alchemist Shen Qin, it turns out you are such an interesting person."

"Master Hu is still more interesting." Shen Qin was not surprised that she guessed his identity.

Now her photos are everywhere on the terminal network, and Kelly just called her name, it would be strange if she couldn't guess it!

Sandang looked at the two of them strangely. Why did it feel like they were old acquaintances?

No! A sense of crisis has come! Why are there rivals for my love everywhere?

Kelly kept moving, her eyes seemed to be looking into Walnut's sleeves. She wanted to know how the soul was hiding there.

Kurumi smiled brightly, summoned the soul, stuffed it into his sleeve, then opened his mouth and spit out the soul.

"Wow!" Kelly clapped enthusiastically, her eyes shining, and she thought the trick was extremely interesting.

"Oh, there's more~" Walnut placed the soul on her palm, gently closed her palms, and then spread her hands out. The soul disappeared, and then she lifted her hat, and the soul flew out of the hat.

Klee: “Wow—”

Shen Qin looked particularly carefully. He wanted to know whether the characters who never took off their hats in these games had a bald head under their hats.

Now it seems that is not the case. It turns out that beautiful girls never go bald.

While they were chatting, Haro and Xiaodu came back with their luggage. Looking at the cute Xiaodu carrying a suitcase in each hand, Shen Qin thought of the Totoro in the cartoon. The two look alike!

"What do you say? Do you want me to be your tour guide and show you around Liyue?" Hu Tao said enthusiastically.

Shen Qin shook his head: "We are going to Wangshu Inn now. Our friends are waiting for us there."

Hu Tao's eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "Oh? There's a feast? Does your friend mind? If not, take me along! This hall master likes to make friends with people. One more friend means one more client... one more way out!"

Shen Qin: "...I'll ask first. If she doesn't mind, we can go together."

Chapter 208: Klee wants to ride in a hearse!

Shen Qin opened Keqing's communication: Keqing, besides me, Sucrose and Klee, there is also a new friend from Liyue that we just met. Is it convenient to bring her along?

Keqing: New friend? Shen Qin, don't let yourself be fooled!

Keqing: Forget what I said last time. You are the only one who can deceive others. No one in Teyvat can deceive you. Tell me, what's her name? Maybe I know her.

Shen Qin: Lord Yuhengxing, what do you mean? Do you despise my character?

Keqing: Stop talking nonsense! Who is it?

Shen Qin: Walnut.

Keqing: So it’s the girl from Wangsheng Hall... Wuwangpo... I think I understand. Let’s come together. Wangsheng Hall is also our official partner.

Shen Qin: In that case, that's great. We'll be there soon!

He turned off the screen, stepped on the flying skateboard, and waved his hand with high spirits: "We elbow!"

"Well... the direction you are facing is back to Mondstadt, and the direction of Wangshu Inn is on the other side." Walnut said with a smile.

Shen Qin didn't blush or feel nervous, and changed direction: "Elbow!"

Walnut pointed to a hill not far away and said, "I drove here. My car is parked at the bottom of the hill. Do you want to fly over there by yourself using your flying skateboard?"

"Of course, I'd like to take a ride in the car driven by Hall Master Hu!"

Shen Qin calmly put away his skateboard.

"Do you know what the car I drive is called?"

"what?"

Hu Tao skipped toward the hillside and looked back at Shen Qin curiously: "Do you still want to ride in the hearse?"

Shen Qin and Shatang were so scared that they took a step back.

"Kelly wants to ride! Kelly wants to ride in the hearse!" Kelly ran towards her happily.

Kurumi shrugged, "Just kidding! The hearse is the bus of the Hall of the Dead, so of course I came here in my own personal vehicle!"

Shatang looked at the helplessness on Shen Qin's face and couldn't help but burst out laughing. She had never seen Shen Qin being defeated by anyone, but Hutao always managed to surprise him and leave him speechless.

Shen Qin really had no way to deal with the eccentric Hu Tao. After all, even Zhongli admitted that he couldn't handle her.

When Shen Qin saw Hu Tao's car, he finally believed that it was a private vehicle, because its carriage had been removed, and in front of them was just a bare front, with all kinds of messy graffiti painted on the body. All Shen Qin could make out was a ghost and a silhouette of a man dancing with a gun.

He guaranteed with Phoenix's ten-year life span that this must be Yun Jin!

Phoenix, who was in an unknown space, sneezed: "Aqiu - who is thinking about me?"

"Get in the car!" Hu Tao called them.

When Shen Qin got in the car, the first thing he saw was a drum set, two guitars and a huge speaker in the cockpit.

What, you said that's a bass? What instrument is a bass?

It has strings and can be carried on the shoulder. Even if the king of heaven comes, it is still a guitar!

Walnut noticed his gaze and explained, "Those belong to my friends. We occasionally sing songs and get together in the car. I have to say, the sound insulation of this car is really strong. Even if it's so noisy inside that you can't hear much outside!"

With Phoenix’s ten-year life span as a guarantee, this friend must be Xin Yan!

Phoenix: A-Chu!

Shen Qin tied Keli to the passenger seat with a seat belt, while he and Shatang sat in the back seats.

While Hu Tao was driving, he said, "Hu Tao, summon your soul so I can study it. I'm curious about where its power comes from."

"Ah? The soul is my friend, how can I let you study it casually?" Walnut refused without even turning his head.

Then he added: "Degamora!"

Shen Qin: “…”

"Well, you asked Zhongli to come to Academy City to cooperate with me! How about we talk about cooperation?"

Hu Tao flicked the soul in front of Shen Qin with his fingers, and spoke to Shen Qin in confusion: "It's yours now. You can study it however you want, as long as you don't make the soul dissipate."

Shen Qin, Sugar: "..."

He coughed lightly and said, "Your request to open a branch of the Hall of Rebirth in the downtown area of ​​Academy City cannot be met. Not to mention the impact of the Hall of Rebirth on the surrounding shops, the West Wind Church will not allow you to cross the line..."

Before he could finish his words, Kurumi beckoned and summoned the soul back.

"Then what kind of cooperation are you talking to me about?"

No, you change your face too quickly, don't you? Shen Qin was speechless, and then said: "What I want to talk about is not this kind of cooperation, but some marketing planning for Wangsheng Hall."

"Tell me something. If you find it interesting, I'll throw the soul to you to play with."

Hu Tao was quite interested in his marketing plan. After all, the reason why his Academy City was so prosperous now was not because of his deception... marketing ability! It was said that Shen Qin had nothing at the beginning, but he relied on a holographic projection and a plan to swindle a lot of funds.

At that time, other forces thought that these investors were stupid and laughed at them secretly. However, after the construction machinery launch conference of Academy City ended, they were all dumbfounded.

Ding ding! A super capital group emerged right under everyone's noses.

So Hu Tao has great trust in his marketing ability.

"Ahem, of course it's the second and a half person... Phew! Of course it's a custom order!"

Shen Qin's eyes lit up: "Wangshengtang can't just focus on the business of people a hundred years later! You have to expand your thinking! Think about the future?"

"Go to the afterlife, end this life. But how many people can leave without any worries? How many people have unfulfilled dreams before they die? Some people want to see their lost relatives for the last time, and some people hope to see their children grow up, get married and have children..."

"Then the Wangsheng Hall can completely launch a customized dream-making service! If you want to find your relatives, the Wangsheng Hall will help you find them. If you want to see your children get married, the Wangsheng Hall will find someone to act. If you want to be an adventurer, the Wangsheng Hall will carry a stretcher and take you on an adventure! Walnut, do you think such a service is attractive to the dying?"

Kurumi's eyes sparkled: "It seems... a little interesting?"

It doesn’t matter whether you make money or not. The main thing is that just listening to Shen Qin’s description, I think it’s very fun! And each customer has a different way of playing!

"If they accept our dream-fulfilling service, then the Wangsheng Hall will also take care of their funeral services a hundred years later. Wouldn't that be less offensive? If the dream-fulfilling service is provided, then the dog will have a dragon and die without regrets!"

Hu Tao threw the soul in front of Shen Qin again and said excitedly: "Say more!"

"Hey! Master Hu, we have to take it slow and make this service perfect first. When the business of Wangsheng Hall gets bigger, I will have more interesting ideas in my mind."

"Kerosene problem, kerosene problem! Why don't you come to the Wangsheng Hall as a guest official like Keli, and you will get a salary every month!" Hu Tao was delighted to see the opportunity and wanted to recruit him into the Wangsheng Hall as well.

They are all talents!

Chapter 209 Wangshu Inn

Shen Qin and Hu Tao reached a preliminary cooperation agreement. She assisted him in his research on the soul, and he helped Wangsheng Hall expand its business.

Shen Qin wanted to find out what the power of the soul was and where it came from.

He had previously deduced when he was in the snowy mountains that the soul is a collection of information that possesses self-awareness and the ability to think. In essence, it is still illusory information. Unless it is filled with reality like Phoenix, it can be considered to have an entity.

The soul can manipulate elemental forces probably because it has obtained the corresponding manipulation authority, and can manipulate the elemental forces that exist in the air and the earth veins.

But I don't know what kind of power the soul just used. I don't know where it came from.

Qiqi spreads his hands.jpg.

When asked, Hu Tao also said she didn't know. She said that this was the power that came with the soul. Unfortunately, she had only found this one soul so far. The other souls were either ordinary souls with no powers, or mutated souls contaminated by known powers.

Shen Qin had no idea what to do, so he let the soul demonstrate its ability, then scanned and recorded the entire process, and passed the data to Frank and the super terminal for them to analyze and study first.

Hu Tao was driving the front end of the Mingguan car, so the speed was naturally not slow. In just over half an hour, they entered the territory of Dihuazhou. Shen Qin saw the tall building in the center of Dihuazhou in the distance. That was the landmark building of Dihuazhou, Wangshu Inn.

The Wangshu Inn in the game is already a stunning sight, and Shen Qin can fully imagine how spectacular the real Wangshu Inn is.

But when he actually arrived at the Wangshu Inn, he was still shocked by its grandeur.
