Be a legal businessman in Liyue!

Xingqiu suddenly spoke up, "I found a treasure map that records the location of a ruin. Are you interested?"

Chongyun: "Relics?"

His eyes lit up. What did the ruins represent? They represented danger. Danger meant monsters. He loved ruins with monsters in them.

"When do we set off?" Chongyun asked.

Xingqiu: "The ruins are close to the stone gate. We'll need at least seven days to prepare."

As he spoke, he looked at Wang Que and said, "Are you going or not? The factory is back on track now. You don't have to be busy all the time, right? Why don't you go out and have some fun?"

Going on an adventure to the ruins?

Wang Que resisted subconsciously.

Xingqiu and Chongyun like this adventurous life; it is their ideal.

But Wang Que didn't like it.

He prefers to live in a stable environment.

Just like ordinary time travelers, after hearing the news about Huangmao, they would most likely go to Mond to witness the plot or famous scenes.

But after Wang Que got the news from Huangmao, he did nothing except notifying Boss Qian to ship the goods as soon as possible.

Compared to Huangmao, Wang Que would rather go to Mondstadt to find Albedo and try to learn more advanced alchemy knowledge.

Of course, this plan was also suspended due to the rampage of Tevarin.

Because he couldn't beat Tevarin, who knew if he would arrive in Mondstadt and breathe out a dragon's breath from the sky to kill him?

Therefore, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

Wang Que also didn't want to put himself in a dangerous environment.

Although he is now level 50, he can barely be considered a master.

But, it's not enough!

"I won't go, but after the Mondstadt is over, I might go to Mondstadt. If you're still in Shimen by then, maybe we can meet."

Wang Que rejected Xingqiu's proposal.

Before Xingqiu could say anything, Xiangling's voice came from behind him: "Hmm? Xingqiu, are you guys going to Shimen? Then I'll go with you."

Xingqiu showed a hint of surprise: "Xiangling, you're going to Shimen?"

"Not Shimen, I'm going to Mondstadt." Xiangling had taken off her apron and was dressed casually. "I heard the meat products in Qingquan Town in Mondstadt are good. I want to go check it out and see Mondstadt's dragons."

Xingqiu: “Huh?”

When Xingqiu heard Xiangling say that she wanted to see Mondstadt's dragon, he was stunned.

Do you want to see something that others can’t even hide from?

Isn't this right?

Xiangling wasn't surprised at all: "Hey, I heard dragons are very powerful creatures. I haven't tasted what dragon meat tastes like yet."

Ingredients are to chefs what fishing spots are to fishermen; both hold unimaginable temptation.

Wang Que and the other two were silent.

"Ahem, dragons are very dangerous, Xiangling, you'd better..." Wang Que coughed and began to persuade.

He knew that Xiangling met Huangmao after the dragon disaster.

But he didn't expect that Xiangling was actually going after Tevarin.

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid. If it's dangerous, I definitely won't go near it." Xiangling rolled her eyes. "I'm just thinking about it. Do you really want me to slay a dragon? How could that be possible?"

Xiangling is aware of her own strength.

It is definitely enough to defeat ordinary monsters, but it is definitely impossible to defeat a dragon, a being that stands at the top of elemental life.

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Xiangling had not lost her mind.

"In that case, let's set off together later." Xingqiu said.

We agreed on the departure time.

Several people continued to eat and chat around the table.

"By the way, have you heard anything recently?" Xingqiu is always the most informed.

Wang Que suddenly became interested: "What did you hear?"

Chongyun and Xiangling also cast curious glances.

"The Thousand Rocks Army is making a big move on Guili Plains," Xingqiu said, his expression mysterious. "It's said they've discovered some very important relics."

"Isn't this normal? There are always some ruins unearthed in Guiliyuan every year." Xiangling lost interest all of a sudden.

Before Wang Que traveled through time, he had seen in some works that scientific progress depended on archaeology.

Although this statement is not entirely correct in Liyue, it does have some validity.

During the War of Demons and Gods, the immortals used all their wisdom to invent countless war machines in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of mortals.

After the Demon War ended, the times progressed and many war machines became obsolete.

In addition, as the immortals gradually disappeared from the sight of mortals, many immortal mechanical techniques were lost.

For example, the Guizhongji, this thing is extremely powerful, but it was not taken seriously again until the Osel Rebellion.

This shows the impact of technological discontinuity after the immortals retired from the world.

During the archaeological excavations in Guiliyuan, some immortal techniques can often be discovered.

For Liyue, this is indeed a disguised way to improve technology.

Wang Que listened to the conversation between the two, with a strange look in his eyes.

The Qianyan Army was excavating ruins in Guiliyuan. Why did he suddenly feel a sense of familiarity?

Could it be that... the evil-repelling ruins have been dug up?

He had just told Grandma Ping about the evil-warding matter not long ago, and then the Qianyan Army went to Guiliyuan to dig up the ruins.

There is inevitably some connection between them.

However, Wang Que was not planning to get involved in anything.

If it was before the operation of the [Tianheng Xuanzao] factory, Wang Que still had the idea of ​​making a fortune in the ruins.

But now, the factory makes tens of millions of dollars in profit every month, and he no longer cares about the ruins.

The only thing I care about is the subsequent whereabouts of Bixie.

"When you have a chance, you can go ask Grandma Ping."

Wang Que thought to himself.

Chapter 64 Three Teas and Seven Minerals

How can an ordinary person offer sacrifices and pray to the Rock King?

After finishing a cold meal,

Wang Que asked Chongyun this question.

Although Chongyun said that he only needed to burn a stick of incense to the Emperor to explain that he had obtained the immortal magic and was ready to practice and use it.

If that doesn't work, try another ritual.

But Wang Que considered that he was indeed not from Liyue, so he prepared to go straight for the big one.

The more courtesy, the less blame.

Make it more formal, maybe Lao Deng will be happy to see it.

In response to Wang Que's question, Chongyun shook his head slightly: "Matters concerning sacrificial ceremonies are mostly handled by the Wangsheng Hall, so I don't know much about them either."

Wang Que's expression froze.

Go to the Hall of Rebirth to find someone to help organize a prayer ceremony for the Emperor.

Why do I always feel like it would be better to just give money to Lao Deng?

Wang Que fell silent for a moment.

The question now is,

Zhongli knew that Wang Que knew his identity.

Wang Que also knew that Zhongli knew that he knew his identity.

But Wang Que never admitted it directly.

"So, should I continue to deny it and go to the Wangsheng Hall to prepare for the ritual, or should I just admit it and go to Lao Deng to explain the situation?"

Wang Que is like a student who tells the teacher that he left his homework at home, sticking his neck out and refusing to admit that he didn't do it.

Even after everyone dispersed and Wang Que returned to [Adventure Optimization], he still hadn't figured out what to do.

Until late at night,

Looking at the bright moon hanging high outside the window, Wang Que suddenly came out of his dilemma.

"Damn it, why should I think so much? I'll just treat myself as an ordinary Liyue citizen and do what I can do. As for the rest, let Lao Deng figure it out on his own."

As soon as I think about it, I suddenly feel that the world is vast.

After taking a look at the night view outside the window and hearing the footsteps of the Qianyan Army patrol passing by, Wang Que fell asleep.

……

the next day,

Wang Que got up energetically, but found that Shitou and others were already working.

I can only sigh that the people of Liyue are indeed hardworking and none of them are lazy.

"Shi Tou, I have something to do outside. You can eat by yourselves at noon. You don't need to leave any food for me."

"Okay, boss."

After going out, Wang Que didn't even have breakfast and went straight to the Hall of Rebirth.

The Hall of Rebirth is a place that seems a bit deserted even at the busiest time of the day in Liyue Harbor.

In the morning, it is even quieter here.

The white kitten stretched out lazily on the stone bench in front of the door. It was not afraid when it saw Wang Que coming. It just meowed twice, as if to say hello.

Side door,

The Not-To-Be-Remarked True Lord is still in office, and she never seems to rest.

"Hmm? It's Boss Wang. Are you here to see the guest Zhongli?"

She had remembered Wang Que the last time he came over, and now she recognized him at a glance.

Wang Que bowed slightly and said, "Sister Dudu, I have something to ask you at the Rebirth Hall. Is the Hall Master here?"

"Yes, I will report to you right away."

Hearing that Wang Que wanted to see the hall master for something, Zhenjun became even more serious.

Soon,

A girl wearing a Qiankun hat and a plum branch came out.

(Walnut, hey hey hey, my peach, hey hey hey)

"Oh my, who is this? Isn't this the recently famous Boss Wang?"

This was actually the first time Hu Tao and Wang Que met, but it was not the first time they had heard of each other.

As the head of the Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao is quite famous in Liyue. Of course, because of Hu Tao's personality, it is hard to say whether this fame is good or bad.

As for Wang Que, the [Tianheng Xuanzao] factory's monthly profit of tens of millions had already made him famous in Liyue's business world. Even Hu Tao had heard of it many times.

To be precise, the popularity of elemental grenades has led to an improvement in the combat capabilities of adventurers, which has in some sense reduced the workload of the Rebirth Hall.

Wang Que cupped his hands and said, "Master Hu, you are too polite. I came here to ask for a favor."
