Their commission was suspicious.
Page 318
It's true that Chen Luo couldn't refuse it even if he wanted to.
……
"Hmm, you're back so soon? Has it been an hour?" When Yingmei called the young master out of the Northern Bank, he was completely dumbfounded.
How long has Yingmei been gone? How come she's already found four immortals?
For an ordinary person, this probably wouldn't even cover the distance.
Although this traveler was able to shine in the Stormterror incident, his actions were far too swift.
"It's mainly thanks to Chen Luo, but I won't tell you the specifics of how he found it," Yingmei said, pointing to Chen Luo beside her.
With Chen Luo and his teleportation anchor point, the speed at which they searched for immortals was practically like having a cheat code.
Having learned that Venti's Divine Heart had been ripped out by the Fatui ladies, Ying is extremely wary of the Fatui. Even with this seemingly harmless young man, she remains so.
The reason Yingmei still came to see the young master after returning was mainly because she realized that she had been tricked into a trap by him.
Besides, I only went to find the other immortals because I was fooled by him, so I feel like I should make him do some work.
Besides, although Yingmei is about to have her wanted status lifted with the help of the immortals, she hasn't actually been removed from the wanted list yet.
Yingmei is still considered a wanted person in Liyue Harbor, so she doesn't dare to go to the Liyue Seven Stars.
"Don't put the credit on me, it's mainly Shen He's doing," Chen Luo quickly declined upon seeing this.
"By the way, where is that fairy lady next to you?" The young master noticed that Shen He was not with Chen Luo.
"Oh, she went to Gan Yu, who is Yue Haiting's secretary and essentially her senior, to report the situation," Chen Luo said.
Chen Luo had no intention of telling the Prince that he was a messenger of the Seven Stars of Liyue, since Chen Luo and the Prince were not familiar with each other.
Shen He's solo actions were intentional on Chen Luo's part, mainly because Shen He had been down the mountain for some time and it was time for him to try acting on his own.
Moreover, Chen Luo had the Herald of Knowledge accompany the other party, so barring any unforeseen circumstances, nothing should go wrong.
If anything goes wrong, the Lawbringer will handle it.
"In such a short time, you've found four immortals: the Moon-Cut and Sun-Building True Lord, the Water-Controlling and Mountain-Stacking True Lord, the Cloud-Leaving and Wind-Borrowing True Lord, and the Demon-Subduing Great Sage... Some of these titles haven't even appeared in the intelligence gathered by the Fools." The young master muttered.
This also shows that the Fools are not omnipotent, or rather, the Fools are still quite young.
After all, the Fools are currently operating in a foreign land, and it would be bad if they knew everything.
"As a return gift, I also have some information to provide you," the young master said to Yingmei.
"The reaction of the Seven Stars of Liyue to the death of the deity is quite intriguing. They claimed that since the true culprit has not yet been found, no one is allowed to pay homage to the Immortal Ancestor's physical remains. They even tried to block the news, but after all, the Immortal Invitation Ceremony is a busy affair, and even the Seven Stars could not completely suppress the rumors," the young master said.
"The Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation?" Yingmei was somewhat puzzled by this title.
"According to common knowledge in Liyue, the Geo Archon is also an immortal. The Geo Archon is the God of Contracts and is also known as the Ancestor of all immortals. So it is quite normal for the body of the deceased to be called the Immortal Ancestor's Demise."
"Oh, I see. I've learned something new." Paimon nodded seriously.
"Why would the body left behind by the Rock God's soul as it ascended to the heavens be hidden by the Seven Stars? It's really suspicious..." the young master said, arms crossed.
Although the young master appeared to be taking a fair and impartial stance, Chen Luo could clearly see the hidden motives in his words.
Upon hearing the young master's words, Yingmei turned her gaze to Chen Luo.
"Why are you looking at me? Look at him. He clearly has something to say," Chen Luo said, pointing at the young master.
“You said the Rock God is credible,” Yingmei said.
"In my opinion, it's quite credible, but whether the other party is trustworthy or not is something you need to judge for yourself. After all, if you miss this opportunity and regret it later, there won't be any way to make up for it," Chen Luo said.
Chen Luo could show Yingmei the plot, but whether Yingmei would believe it was another matter.
Moreover, some things always need to be experienced.
The most crucial point is that sometimes, after listening to others and choosing a different option, even if the result is not unexpected, you may still feel resentful about the other choice.
It's like if Yingmei chose not to participate in this incident and didn't know the Rock God, she would search all the Seven Gods but still couldn't find the culprit from back then.
Then Yingmei will definitely suspect that it was done by the Rock God whom Chen Luo called trustworthy?
Chen Luo didn't want to take the blame.
After all, people's hearts are hard to fathom.
Chen Luo never makes decisive suggestions when his friends face major decisions, unless the other party's choice is truly wrong.
"so……"
"Do whatever you want." Chen Luo simply gave up and stood there doing nothing.
"Alright, you two keep chatting, I'll go take care of my own things first." Seeing that things had progressed to this point, Chen Luo felt it was time for him to leave.
"Oh, goodbye then." Yingmei and Paimon did not stop Chen Luo from leaving.
After all, Chen Luo did have his own things to do, and he couldn't keep the other person by his side forever.
Besides, it's me who's wanted, not him.
"Is your friend really gone like that?" the young master asked, watching Chen Luo walk away.
The young master originally thought that Chen Luo and Yingmei were on the same side, but he didn't expect them to be separated so suddenly.
But that's just right.
As the young master had his men investigate Chen Luo's information, the more they investigated, the more suspicious they became.
This Chen Luo is quite elusive and mysterious.
At least the traveler Yingmei can be traced, but the puppeteer Chen Luo has absolutely no way of knowing how she came to be, how she disappeared, or how she suddenly appeared in Liyue.
“He has his own things to do.” Yingmei still harbored considerable wariness towards the young master.
To put it bluntly, Yingmei and Gongzi are probably just using each other now.
The fact that Prince is an Enforcer of the Fatui makes him a suspect, while Ying is strong and unfamiliar with Liyue...
Chen Luo? I'm not familiar with Chen Luo either.
Chapter 334 Walnut: Really? I don't believe it.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
【Immortal Ancestor's Manifestation】: Helps the pitiful, weak, and helpless Yingmei see the Immortal Ancestor's Manifestation.
Reward: 500 Primogems + random reward
Difficulty: 3 stars
"..." Chen Luo paused for a moment after hearing the notification.
It's only been two minutes since Chen Luo left Yingmei.
Hey, are you the traveler or am I? Why do you always drag me into the plot when it's your responsibility to move things forward?
Oh, wait, thinking about it carefully, Chen Luo and Ying Mei are both travelers.
In short, Chen Luo is now a bit at a loss.
"Ying really knows how to use the commission cards quite well," Chen Luo couldn't help but say.
Perhaps because Chen Luo had Yingmei complete the quests, Yingmei now seems to be particularly good at using quest cards.
However, Yingmei didn't give nothing in return. At least after Chen Luo had almost finished his mission, Yingmei agreed to treat Chen Luo to a meal.
This was something that had been agreed upon beforehand.
Of course, the dinner invitation here is not in a bar but on the continent of Teyvat. If you invite Chen Luo to dinner in a bar, what's the difference between that and not inviting him at all?
Although Yingmei hesitated for a moment after Chen Luo revealed that he was actually the Seven Star Messenger, she still had doubts about whether to invite him to dinner.
And this mission... who knows what extra reward Yingmei will give?
Although Yingmei, as Chen Luo's commission tool, knew that Chen Luo would definitely receive a reward after completing the commission, just like when Yingmei was doing commissions, in addition to the Originium given to Chen Luo after the commission was credited to him, the commission issuer would also give Yingmei some Mora and items.
Yingmei carried these things herself.
So Yingmei didn't find it strange that Chen Luo was given an extra reward.
Of course, it won't be much, probably just another meal?
"However, the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation..." Upon seeing this mission objective, Chen Luo pondered for a moment before glancing at his backpack.
Chen Luo had instructed the Herald of Knowledge to extract something from the body of the deceased Lord Yan...
"Ying said she wanted to see the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation, but she didn't say how big the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation should be, right?" Chen Luo muttered.
Chen Luo's backpack contained quite a few Immortal Ancestor molts, but the Herald of Knowledge didn't go too far; they were mostly scales and claws, except that the tail section was cut into rather large pieces.
However, according to the Herrscher of Knowledge herself, the things she cut were all very well hidden, ensuring that no one would find them.
Chen Luo remained somewhat skeptical about this.
But it doesn't matter anyway, since this Immortal Ancestor Fa Yu's transformation is definitely not real, and it doesn't matter who he gives it to when he's going to be buried.
Moreover, Zhongli buried himself.
To be honest, Chen Luo didn't even know what this Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation was made of.
"Although... I feel that this kind of shortcut is not very feasible." Although many clever tricks flashed through his mind, he finally gave up with a sigh.
Chen Luo had considered using unconventional methods to complete the mission.
While unconventional tactics can indeed accomplish the task, the problem is that these tactics only apply to the process, not the result.
The talent panel doesn't care how you help the task issuer complete the task.
For example, if you want to persuade a little girl not to eat a lollipop, why not just take it away? Then she won't be able to eat it anyway.
But the task must be completed.
It's like when he impersonated Lady Green Lily and emptied Fu Hua's house, and then Fu Hua issued a mission saying that she needed to find Lady Green Lily.
Otto is definitely Lady Green Lily, but this is definitely not the result Fu Hua wants, nor is it the answer Fu Hua wants, so it won't work.
In general, the process may not be what the task poster wants, but the result must be what the other party wants.
"Sigh, can't the talent panel be a little more flexible? Even a small piece of Immortal Ancestor's Manifestation is still an Immortal Ancestor's Manifestation. Let's try it when Yingmei comes to the bar tonight, what if it works?" Chen Luo said, stroking his chin.
Anyway, it doesn't cost any money to try it.
After walking for a while, Chen Luo finally arrived at the Hall of Rebirth.
The nature of the ancestral hall is different from that of other shops, so its layout is also different from that of other shops.
Even during the day, the door to the Hall of Rebirth was tightly closed. Chen Luo knocked on the door for a long time before he finally got it open.
"It's you guys? You've come at the right time. All 25 coffins you requested have been prepared for you." It was Hu Tao who opened the door for Chen Luo.
A little walnut peeked its head out from inside the door; it was so cute, you just wanted to eat it...
Ahem, what Chen Luo really wanted to say was that he wanted to invite her to dinner.
"So fast?"
"It's not that fast, mainly because the burial hall is for this kind of work, so we have quite a lot in stock. Also, coffins have a long shelf life, so making more general-purpose ones as backup is not a problem."
"After all, who can predict life and death?"
“If a mining accident or a mudslide were to occur, the number of coffins needed would be enormous. If the Rebirth Hall couldn’t even meet this basic demand, its reputation would have been ruined long ago,” Hu Tao said.
Although, theoretically speaking, only a certain number of people will die in Liyue each day, not too many, since people don't die every day.
But the reality is that some people really might die in droves, whether by murder or by some irresistible natural disaster.
Moreover, the Hall of Rebirth manages not only the Liyue Harbor area, but is basically the most famous funeral brand in the entire Liyue.
Otherwise, Hu Tao wouldn't be running around everywhere trying to sell her business.
Hu Tao led Chen Luo to the place where the coffins were placed; 25 luxurious coffins were laid out there.
"How are you going to take these coffins with you? Or do you have some strange methods?" Hu Tao blinked curiously and stared intently at Chen Luo.
The other party's bar is connected to another world, so it's normal for them to have some special abilities since they are from another world.
Anyway, while Yangshengtang normally provides delivery services, it doesn't in this other world.
So Chen Luo definitely has to do these jobs, but how he should do them is the question.
Seeing Hu Tao's curious gaze, Chen Luo snapped his fingers, and 25 transparent silk threads instantly extended out, binding the 25 coffins.
