Ying was a little helpless. Paimeng's biggest hobby was eating. When she was at Wangshu Inn, she praised Yanxiao's cooking skills. When the delicious food entered her mouth, a happy smile appeared on her face.
"If Lin Ye comes back, please tell him that Paimon and I went to Liuli Pavilion."
"Ah."
Liuli Pavilion.
Ying told the maid Tartaglia's name and led them into a private room.
The first thing I saw when I entered the room was a handsome young man sitting in the first seat, with Young Master Tartaglia sitting next to him.
The seating arrangements in Liyue are very particular, and it seems that the person sitting at the head seat is not a simple person, Ying thought.
"Now that you're here, please sit down. The food hasn't been served yet," said Tartaglia.
Ying took her seat, and Paimon was still flying.
"Let me introduce you to this. This is my friend on the road, a guest of the Wangsheng Hall, Mr. Zhongli."
"The Hall of Rebirth?" Ying and Paimeng looked at each other.
Shen He and Sorolla just came back from the Hall of Rebirth.
The corners of Ying's mouth rose slightly.
It’s interesting. Ying feels that there is a closed loop in the world, and no matter how you go around, it will always be connected together.
Tartaglia observed the reactions of Ying and Paimon and thought that they had heard of the Hall of Rebirth, so she did not give any additional explanation.
Zhongli looked towards Ying, his expression calm.
"Boy, nice to meet you. I've heard rumors about you in Mondstadt."
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Zhongli." Ying said politely.
The guest official of Wangsheng Hall must be Lin Ye’s colleague.
Is the calm young man in front of me the one who, as the young master said, has the means to see the Immortal Ancestor Fa Tu?
Does Lin Ye know about this? Ying was a little curious.
"Let me get straight to the point. The reason why you are introducing me to you is because I have a way to let you see the immortal body of the Rock King."
"any solution?"
Zhongli replied calmly.
“Although Emperor Yanwang is the ancestor of all immortals, he is still just an immortal after all. Looking at Liyue’s thousands of years of history, the immortals have left one after another, and this is an irreversible trend.”
“Because times have changed.”
Upon hearing this, Ying was inexplicably reminded of the oversized mecha that she had seen in Tianheng Mountain, and nodded in agreement.
Zhongli thought Ying understood what he meant, and continued approvingly.
"As you can see, the age of immortals is fading away, and the age of humans is gradually becoming a reality."
"In previous years, when each immortal left, a grand farewell ceremony would be held. This is a tradition. But this time, the Seven Stars had no time to take care of it. It was really a mess."
"After all, this is a strange case of murdering a god."
"A strange case of murdering a god, huh, that's true... But the Wangsheng Hall doesn't care about this kind of thing. What the Wangsheng Hall cares about is that the ceremony of inviting the gods is so grand, but no one cares about the ceremony of sending them away?"
"Ying, I heard about you from the young master. Since you have a friendship with the God of Wind... then, would you consider preparing a farewell ceremony for the God of Rock with me?"
Ying did not agree immediately, but looked thoughtful.
Judging from Zhongli's words, the Hall of Rebirth seems to still have some power in Liyue Harbor. Holding the ceremony to send off the immortals is a good opportunity to witness the transformation of the Immortal Ancestor.
"it is good."
"In that case, follow me. We'll discuss the details on the way."
"Eh." Paimon made a surprised sound.
"Don't want to eat?"
Zhongli was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"indeed."
"Hahaha... a dinner party. As I understand it, the important thing is the party, not the food. However, what Paimon said makes me a little hungry too, so let's serve the food." Tartaglia said with a smile.
After dinner, Dartaglia stayed for a couple of drinks.
Ying, Paimeng and Zhongli leave Liuli Pavilion.
“Ying, after experiencing the [City-State Where the Gods Left], what do you think of Liyue, the [Land Where Gods Live]?” Zhongli asked.
Ying thought for a moment and answered honestly.
"I haven't been in Liyue for long, so I haven't experienced many of the local customs. Compared to Mondstadt, the atmosphere here is both more fulfilling and more busy. As for the land of gods, I've only seen a lot of chaos after the gods left."
Zhongli smiled softly, it was undeniable.
"You just came to Liyue and encountered the departure of the gods. This is a rare sight."
"The process of preparing for the immortal invitation ceremony will also become a part of your journey, broadening your horizons."
"Liyue has a history of 3,700 years, the longest among the seven kingdoms."
"Liyue is the most prosperous of the seven kingdoms. In the past, it was guarded by gods and ruled by the Seven Stars. Therefore, many of the Fatui's diplomatic tactics cannot be used in Liyue."
Ying thought back to the Fatui of Mondstadt, compared them with the Fatui of Liyue, and nodded.
Chapter 473 Yingying Chirps
"To prepare for the Immortal Sending Ceremony, the items needed are roughly the following: Night Mooring Stone, Ointment, Dust Cleansing Bell, Kite, Eternal Life Incense..."
On the street of Feiyunpo, Ying and Zhongli were talking as they walked.
"Next, we will go to Jie Cui Hang and find a good Yebo Stone, at least of the [Zhu Zhao] grade."
Zhongli then talked about some techniques for selecting and playing with stones, and Ying nodded thoughtfully.
However, Zhongli talked so much about how to accurately choose the best Yebo Stone, when Shi Tou, the boss of Jie Cuihang, took out many Yebo Stones that were of good quality at first glance.
Zhongli's answer:
"I want them all."
Ying's pupils trembled and Yingmao was shocked.
During the preparation of the Immortal Sending Ceremony, we had the financial support of the young master, but he can't be so wasteful.
Paimon also felt that it was not worth it, as stones could not be eaten.
Ying followed the method given by Zhongli, found a big pot on the spot, and picked out a piece of "Candlelight" grade Yebo Stone, which was of top quality in terms of brightness and texture.
Shi Tou delivered the goods readily, and he asked.
"Sir, allow me to be curious, what do you want such a fine night stone for? Are you polishing utensils?"
It was Zhongli who answered the stone, speaking calmly.
"It is used to make instruments for the ceremony of sending immortals."
Shi Tou was stunned for a moment, then he sighed.
"Sending an immortal?... There have been a lot of gossips recently, and I don't believe them. Since it was Mr. Zhongli, a guest official of the Wangsheng Hall, who asked... Oh, Lord Yan, Lord Yan."
Shitou talked about some past events, such as when Emperor Qianlong visited the south of the Yangtze River and bestowed folk snacks upon the emperor, and two hundred years ago, the emperor had eaten with a jade spoon made by Jie Cuihang.
When he was sad, Shitou said that for the emperor's sake, he would give it half price.
Ying and Paimeng were very happy. They commissioned the workers to deliver the Yebo Stone to Yujing Terrace, and then went to another place to find ointment to offer to the statue of the rock god.
The ingredients needed to make the ointment are the colorful flowers.
Ying and Zhongli bought the colorful flowers from the Wanyou shop below the harbor, but they were troubled by the lack of anyone to make the ointment.
"To make ointment, it's best to find someone with experience, but I don't know anyone who makes ointment by hand..."
For example, if Walnut were to make an ointment, it would easily become a dark version.
Paimon complained when he heard this.
“You can tell he’s rich just by listening to him.”
"Please go to the city and ask some young ladies from ordinary families. They should know someone who is skilled in making ointment."
"it is good."
Zhongli went to the Seven Days Statue outside the city, waiting to reunite with Ying.
After Zhongli left, Ying discussed with Paimeng.
"Girls smell good... Come on, Ying, are you secretly applying perfume behind my back?"
Ying tilted her head.
"Okay, I'm just kidding... Why don't we go to the Adventurer's Guild and ask? After all, the Adventurer's Guild is almighty!"
Ying and Paimon come to the Adventurer's Association and meet Sorolla who is secretly saving money to buy a house.
After all, as Sorolla lived in the Lin Mansion, she saw Lin Ye and Shen He being affectionate with each other every day, so she considered moving out. As friends, she couldn't stay in Lin Ye's house forever.
"Sorola." Ying and Paimon greeted.
"Hello," said Sorolla.
After adapting to the environment, Miss Witch has changed. She is now almost like a normal girl. Although she still has a cold air, she will smile at her friends.
Paimon suddenly stepped forward and sniffed around Sorolla.
"What's wrong?" Sorolla asked, a little embarrassed and puzzled.
"Come to think of it, we also have a lot of girls we know, so we can just ask them directly." Paimon turned his head and smiled at Ying, then asked Sorolla.
"Sorola, do you have the habit of applying perfume? You smell so good."
"Ointment?" Sorolla thought and shook his head again.
"Are you going to buy perfume? I know a very good store." Sorolla said again.
"where is it?"
Afterwards, Ying and Paimon came to Chunxiang Kiln.
After hearing about Ying and Paimon's request, Ying'er smiled softly, "Making perfume? Instead of buying the finished product from me, are you planning to give it to someone you love?"
Paimon wondered.
"Do boys like to use balm?"
"Not necessarily." Ying'er said with a double meaning.
The surface meaning is that boys also like to smell perfume, but there is also a hidden meaning that the person who sends the perfume is not necessarily a boy.
Ying didn't understand, so she wasn't shocked.
Ying'er saw that Ying and Paimeng didn't understand what she meant, so she said.
“Flowers are ready to be broken when they bloom, but don’t wait to break branches when there are no flowers left.”
"I don't understand. Is this an ancient poem from Liyue? What does it mean?" Paimon asked.
"Taste it yourself." Ying'er said with a smile, "I promise to help you make the ointment. Well, during this period, you can be my assistant. From now on, you have to focus only on me."
Ying felt a little strange when she heard it.
"If you want to make perfume... go to Wanmin Hall. I'm a regular customer there. Master Mao will agree. I haven't seen Xiangling for a long time. She doesn't like perfume. She said she likes the smell of food. Humph, she's so old, but she still doesn't know how to enhance her feminine charm."
Ying gave an awkward but polite smile.
"We haven't been to Wanmin Hall to find Xiangling since we came to Liyue Harbor. I miss her cooking so much. It's no worse than the ones at Wangshu Inn and Liuliting." Paimeng said.
The three of them went to the Hall of All Peoples.
Mao Xiangling is not here.
With Master Mao's consent, Ying'er borrowed a pot.
"Come on, are you ready to take responsibility for me?"
"Hmm?" The innocent Paimon made a puzzled sound.
