Seeker of Teyvat

Xinhai quickly answered and arranged the itinerary.

From beginning to end, she never asked Wang Daoyi why he wanted to enter Yuanxia Palace, nor did she ask what kind of information Wang Daoyi needed.

For Xinhai, he can return the legacy of the gods to himself, and Wang Daoyi will belong to a friendly unit and can be trusted.

There was absolutely no thought that Wang Daoyi would be able to find out his true purpose by accessing the records of the documents!

"Okay, then I'll wait for a while."

Wang Dao nodded in agreement. It just so happened that he could also use this time to do some things of his own.

Turning to look at Ying: "What about you, do you want to wait here for the peace talks to end? Do you want to go back to Liyue with me for a few days?"

Before Ying could speak, Paimeng looked excited and flew between the two of them: "Okay, okay, back to Liyue, back to Liyue."

A few black lines appeared in the corners of Ying's eyes: "Paimon...are you thinking about Liyue's food again?"

"Hey!" Paimon said sheepishly, but did not deny it.

Chapter 267 Gourmet Zhongli

"Okay, speaking of which, I haven't gone back to Liyue since the Hai Lantern Festival."

In the end, Ying agreed to go back to Liyue to have a look.

On the one hand, Paimon really wants to go back to Liyue to eat delicious food.

On the other hand, I also want to go back to see Liyue's friends, and maybe take some time to visit Mondstadt.

Seeing Ying agreeing, Paimon also showed a cute smile.

She can finally eat Liyue's feast again

Although Dao's wife also has delicious food, Ying has been busy with various things and really doesn't have time to take her to eat at big restaurants like Wuyouting.

Even because of the long-term anti-Thunder General training, there was no time to go out to complete the tasks of the Adventurers Association, which caused the number of Mora to shrink again and again.

As a result, Paimon's food expenses dropped again and again.

In the past, Paimeng endured it because he wanted to save Inazuma, but now, Inazuma has signed a peace contract with Kaijijima. Isn't it time to restore his food expenses?

Paimon thought this, and then thought of the scene where he was eating so much, he couldn't help but smile.

Looking at Paimeng's appearance, Wang Daoyi and Ying looked at each other, shook their heads at each other, and did not disturb her daydream.

……

Liyue Pier Teahouse Backyard

The earth channel opened and Wang Daoyi came out, followed by Ying and Paimon.

After setting the time with Coral Palace Xinhai, Wang Daoyi and Ying discussed it and both thought they could go back to Liyue to play first.

Wait seven days before going to Haiji Island.

"Let's go. At this hour, we go to Wanmin Hall for dinner. I'll treat you!"

Wang Daoyi greeted,

Ying and Paimon rolled their eyes, are you treating me? When they went to Wan Min Tang to eat, when did they pay? Do you know what a good friend of a little cook is?

The three of them fought all the way to Wanmin Hall.

But I found a very surprising figure

"Zhongli?? Why are you here?" Paimon exclaimed.

Sitting on the seat of Wanmin Hall, Zhongli had a pile of dishes in front of him.

It seems that many of them are things that Wang Daoyi has never seen before.

"Oh... it's you. Xiangling invited me here to taste her new dishes. I happened to have nothing to do, so I came here to try them."

Walnut: You'd better be okay!

After Zhongli explained, he stretched out his hand and pointed it towards the dining table: "Would you like to come together and give it a try?"

Facing Zhongli's invitation for delicious food, Paimeng nodded quickly: "Okay, okay!"

After agreeing, he looked at Ying. Ying had no choice but to agree: "Then don't bother me."

With that said, the three of them...the two of them and Paimeng sat down at Zhongli's dining table and tasted Xiangling's new dishes together.

However, Xiangling may have served it as a single person, and soon there was not enough food on the table.

Wang Daoyi: "I'll go to the kitchen to have a look and add some dishes."

After that, I got up and went to the kitchen.

When I came to the kitchen, I saw Xiangling busy with something, which seemed to be a new product.

"Xiang Ling, what are you doing?"

"Ah!!" Xiangling was startled, and then she saw Wang Daoyi and smiled happily, "I'm making a new dish for Mr. Zhongli to taste. Brother Daoyi came just in time to help me take care of the seabass. !”

As he spoke, he kept moving his hands. Between the flying and collision of the big pot and the iron spoon, another delicacy was cooked, which fully demonstrated the basic qualities of a chef.

He quickly helped Xiang Ling handle the sea bass. Wang Dao washed his hands and helped take out the dishes.

As soon as they came out, they heard Yingzai talking to Zhongli about Dao's wife.

It just happened to talk about Wang Daoyi's battle with Shadow in the Pure Land of One Heart.

"It seems that you have indeed grown a lot. You can fight the God of Thunder, which far exceeds my expectations."

After listening to Ying's story, Zhongli looked at Wang Daoyi and sighed softly.

"His Majesty Balzebu just played with me. Moreover, if it weren't for your care of me, the emperor, I might still be just a small teahouse owner in Liyue."

Wang Daoyi also said softly.

Although he fought against Lei Shen once, which confirmed that there was no problem with his path, he was not arrogant enough to think that he could really rival Thor.

That battle, to put it bluntly, was in Inazuma Castle, and the God of Thunder couldn't let go.

But in the wild, it would be another Wuxiangren Gorge.

Moreover, the fact that he could grow to this point was inseparable from Zhongli's initial care.

"...There's no need to be so modest. You are now qualified to stand on equal footing with us."

Zhongli looked at Wang Daoyi. Although he was one of the oldest demon gods, he was also the demon god with the longest vision.

But I never thought that the ignorant little guy a year ago has grown to such an extent now.

"Tomorrow... come to the Hall of the Rebirth to find me. There are some things we should talk about."

Wang Daoyi was silent for a while, then nodded: "Okay."

He already had a vague premonition about what Zhongli wanted to say to him.

Ying glanced at the two of them strangely, not understanding what they meant, and just thought it was an exchange between gods and their relatives.

And Paimon, ha, is addicted to food and can't help himself.

After a brief but complicated exchange with Zhongli, Wang Daoyi returned his smile, sat down again, and enjoyed the delicious food.

Although they are all new dishes, they unexpectedly do not use some strange ingredients. Instead, they are like the exquisite dishes in Liuli Pavilion.

I don’t know why Xiangling cooks these dishes.

Several people ate the dishes and sighed from time to time. After a while, Xiangling came out with a plate of golden-fried seabass.

"Here, the last dish, golden seabass, try it quickly."

Wang Daoyi was not in a hurry to taste it, but instead asked: "These dishes are too exquisite. They don't look like what you would normally cook. Did something happen?"

Xiang Ling nodded: "Brother Daoyi really understands me best! It's because of Miss Ningguang's order. She specially placed an order for a table with me. It seems to be used to entertain some guests."

"I asked Miss Ningguang about her requirements, and she said that it is best to have novel dishes, and then they should be more refined. 'It should be innovative and exquisite. It is best to have ordinary ingredients that ordinary people can eat.' Miss Ningguang is That’s what he said.”

Xiangling explained why she made these new dishes, and then looked at Zhongli: "In order to complete Miss Ningguang's order, I thought of Zhongli Keqing, who can be compared with Miss Ningguang in terms of exquisiteness. The entire Liyue Port , and Zhongli is the only guest."

Zhongli also nodded: "I never tire of fine food, and I never tire of fine cooking. I am indeed a bit particular about eating."

Zhongli's particularity is not that of those old scholars, but that no matter what it is, he can give you a clear and logical explanation, point out your shortcomings, and praise your strengths.

It's about not being annoying.

"Then Mr. Zhongli, please give me a review."

Xiangling looked at Zhongli expectantly, hoping to get some comments.

[Zhongli reviewed Xiangling’s new dishes one by one, and pointed out the advantages and disadvantages. 】

After listening to Zhongli's comments, Xiangling nodded happily and seriously: "Okay, I have written it all down. When I have improved it, I will invite Guest Zhongli to come over and taste it."

Zhongli nodded in praise.

After dinner, Ying and Paimeng continued to stay at Wanmin Hall, while Wang Daoyi and Zhongli went home respectively.

Back at the dock teahouse, Sisi said to Wang Daoyi: "Boss, you are back. Just in time, the General Affairs Department sent an invitation to you. I will bring it to you."

After saying that, he found an invitation and gave it to Wang Daoyi.

Chapter 1 Heavenly Law and the Abyss

I took the gold-edged and red-bottomed invitation from Sisi.

Wang Dao opened it directly and glanced at it casually.

Good guy, [Dinner invitation regarding the high-level cooperation between Liyue/Mondstadt]

"Mond and Liyue are going to officially cooperate?"

A flash of surprise flashed across Wang Dao's eyes. Although he knew that Ning Guang and Qin had done something stupid together before, they started the next round of cooperation so quickly and sent out invitations.

This seems strange. Liyue and Mondstadt, two countries so close to each other, actually want to have a high degree of cooperation. There must be a goal of cooperation.

So...what would this goal be?

After thinking about it, Wang Dao smiled. No matter what the situation was, it must be fun for the rich.

……

Just as Wang Daoyi thought, in the North Country Bank, Pantalone looked at his intelligence officers with a cold face.

"Are you...really the elite from Hearth House?"

There was strong sarcasm in Pantalone's tone: "Ha, if the [servant] knew that her elite were actually being tricked by Liyue General Affairs Department|Secret Agents, it would probably be difficult to mention her in that proud tone again. child!"

[Servant] Arecino, the founder of the "Hearth House" welfare institution in "Winterland", and the main person in charge of the "Fools" intelligence agency.

Most of the fools currently operating on the continent of Teyvat are her subordinates.

The fools and intelligence officers in front of Pantalone were trembling: "No, Mr. Rich, please don't tell Mr. Arecino, we promise that there will be no next time!"

"Ha... it'd better be like this, please..." Pantalone pulled out a red invitation with a gold border and slammed it on the table. "Don't let this happen again!"

That’s right, Ningguang also sent an invitation letter to the rich man, nominally inviting the Winter Solstice ambassador to Liyue to attend the dinner, but in fact... it was a slap in the face.

……

It was rare to have a good night's sleep in the pier teahouse.

Early the next morning, after Wang Daoyi washed up, he did not go to Wanmin Hall for breakfast as usual, but went directly to Shengsheng Hall.

It's time to chat with Morax, Wang Daoyi thought in his heart.

Arriving at the Hall of Purity with ease,

I said hello to the unworthy True Lord and got the news that Zhongli Keqing had gotten up.

Then he went straight to Zhongli's courtyard.

Still wearing the familiar attire, Zhongli was sitting on a stone bench in the lush courtyard, with freshly brewed tea at hand.

"You're here."

"I am coming."
