Seeker of Teyvat

Zhongli nodded, and then said: "The plan went well. The executive officer of the Fools has already contacted the traveler and given her a copy of the Taboo-Free Barrel. Counting the time, she should have contacted Liuyun and the others. Let’s see if Qixing can withstand the pressure from the immortals.”

After a pause, Zhongli continued: "The target of the fools is my God's Heart. Dadalia will definitely explore my magic, so he will definitely come to me. After all, the Hall of Rebirth is the last stop for death. , even if you are an emperor, there should be a sending-off ceremony after your death, and only by holding a sending-off ceremony can Dadalia have a chance to learn the whereabouts of Fa Shen."

"Then, he should bring the travelers to me next. Then, to avoid accidents, you should not come to me recently."

Zhongli plotted against Dadalia, and then told Wang Daoyi that he would receive travelers in the next few days to avoid being spotted by Wang Daoyi, and asked Wang Daoyi not to appear in front of him.

Nodding, Wang Daoyi said he understood.

He reached out and took out something that looked like a chess piece and threw it to Wang Daoyi. Zhongli said, "I'll leave this thing to you for safekeeping first. If Liyue can't bear the final test, you can solve it!"

Seeing Wang Daoyi holding the Heart of God, Zhongli said again: "You can comprehend it, but you are too superficial now and need to settle down. Before you master the posture of God, do not touch the spiritual knowledge of other gods."

Zhongli's reminder made Wang Daoyi put away his thoughts, and kept the Heart of God honestly without asking any questions. Seeing that Zhongli stopped talking, he respectfully made a farewell ceremony and left the other courtyard.

In the next few days, powerful auras entered Qunyu Pavilion every now and then, and battles almost broke out several times. However, in the end these auras left Qunyu Pavilion, and Qixing canceled the wanted order against Ying.

Only Mandrill came to see Wang Daoyi. After getting some information from this junior, Mandrill did not go to Qunyu Pavilion and went directly back to Wangshu Inn.

In order to avoid meeting Zhongli who was purchasing supplies, Wang Daoyi stopped going out and concentrated on studying the Heart of the Rock God at home. Unfortunately, Zhongli did not allow him to have direct contact with God's gnosis. All he could study was the surface knowledge of the Heart of the Rock God. , but even so, Wang Dao's control over the rock element has become increasingly sophisticated.

On the contrary, Ying, after being withdrawn from the wanted list, has been following Zhongli to purchase various supplies in the past few days. He will also go back to Wanmin Hall to spend the night. He asks Xiangling every now and then where Wang Daoyi has gone. Xiangling got Wang Daoyi's explanation. To put it bluntly, I am in seclusion at home and I am not planning to come out recently.

After working hard for a few days, Ying finally got together what Zhongli wanted. In order to thank Ying for his help, Zhongli said that he would treat Ying to Sanwanbu Hong Kong for dinner.

If Zhongli was treating a guest, Wang Daoyi and Dadalia would consciously bring their wallets with them. Unfortunately, although Ying had witnessed Zhongli's lavish spending, she still didn't know that Zhongli really didn't have a mop on his body. Pulled.

In the evening, Ying took Paimon to the agreed place. When they arrived, they saw Zhongli sitting at a guest table.

"Hi, Zhongli, we are here, what good food do you want to treat us to?" Paimeng waved to Zhongli and asked with a smile, "I want a drink."

Ying walked to sit next to Zhongli and found that Zhongli had already ordered it.

"Well, I've already ordered it. This [three bowls are worth it] is not like those pubs in Mondstadt. Here, ordinary juice is not good, so I ordered other drinks for you. "

Ying smelled a hint of wine and smiled on her face: "So this time, can you finally be invited to drink?"

The last time Ying had a drink was when she was celebrating with everyone at Dawn Winery after defeating the Wind Demon Dragon. Unfortunately, when she returned to Mondstadt, the pubs refused to sell her wine because she looked underage.

Unfortunately, she heard Zhongli's answer soon.

"So this time, I ordered fermented rice dumplings for you."

Ying's happy expression froze, and she forced a smile: "It's not like I couldn't guess this ending..."

Different from Ying's reaction, Paimon was more direct. He picked up the rice dumplings, took a sip, and showed a surprised expression: "It tastes good!"

Paimon's reaction attracted Ying, and she let go of her disappointment. She also picked up the rice dumplings and took a bite: "Well, it's delicious!"

While eating, I saw a storyteller coming to the front desk.

"Wow, there are storytellers here, the atmosphere is just right!" Paimon chewed the rice balls in his mouth and let out a vague admiration.

Zhong Li chuckled and picked up a glass of sake: "The so-called high praise from the market means that in addition to good wine, of course the environment must also be good!"

Ying and Paimon nodded, and heard the storyteller on the stage starting to tell a story.

"Everyone knows that in our Liyue Port, there is the Immortal Mansion on the Clouds and the Haze Palace."

First he asked the question slightly, and when the storyteller saw the thoughtful expressions on everyone's faces, he immediately snapped.

"What does it mean to have hands and eyes that can reach the sky? Look, this is called hands and eyes that can reach the sky. This is the property purchased by Lord Ningguang."

The storyteller shook his finger towards the high sky, and everyone saw that it was Qunyu Pavilion.

"When the weather is clear, you can look down from the pavilion and see the scenery of most of Liyue..."

Entering the state, starting from the palace built by [Tianquan Star] Ningguang above Liyue - Qun Yu Pavilion, the storyteller Tian Tiezui spoke fluently and performed generously, talking about Ningguang's miraculous strategy all the way to the legendary [Smashed Snow]. One can't help but be full of curiosity about this [Tianquan Star]...

If Wang Daoyi were here, he would explain to Ying that Tian Tiezui had received money from Ning Guang and would promote Ning Guang every now and then.

Ying was also attracted by the name and became curious about Ning Guang.

"Speaking of which, we have seen her before at the Immortal Invitation Ceremony. Dadalia also talked about her. It seems that she is the one who hid the Immortal Ancestor's magic."

Ying and Paimon were chatting while eating.

Chapter 94: Ningguang's Invitation

"So, Ningguang wants to invite that traveler?"

Wang Daoyi, who was studying the Heart of God at home, was interrupted.

Looking at the "girl" with unicorn horns in front of him, Wang Daoyi showed a speechless expression: "Senior Gan Yu, if Ning Guang is looking for a traveler, why don't you just look for me?"

"Please, please don't call me senior, just call me Gan Yu." Wei Wei felt a little embarrassed, but Gan Yu explained: "Because I had some misunderstandings with the traveler before, so I want to ask you to be the middleman so that the traveler can accept the condensation." An invitation to light.”

Wang Daoyi was helpless. Ying was probably with Zhongli now, which he might have found difficult to deal with in the past, but looking at Gan Yu in front of him, he was too embarrassed to refuse.

After all, they are looking for you for business, and Ning Guang also gave him the elemental fragment before, so the favor has not been returned.

However, now that the encounter between Zhongli and Ying is almost over, there should be no problems in the past.

In the end, Wang Daoyi agreed to Gan Yu's request, and the reward was that Ningguang would continue to send him a batch of elemental materials.

Well, Emperor, I don’t want to either, but Ningguang has given me too much.

……

"I am the one who returned from Jueyunjian. Sorry to bother you!"

Ying and Paimon were chatting animatedly when they heard a voice coming from behind them.

"Who?" Paimeng turned around sharply.

Ying reacted faster and turned around to protect Paimon behind him.

Then they saw a girl with strange decorations and a familiar figure standing behind them.

"Dao Yi? Why are you here? Aren't you in retreat? Also, who is she?"

"Ahem." As soon as Wang Dao walked up to Zhongli, he first gave him a helpless look, and then said: "She is the secretary of Yuehai Pavilion, serving Liyue Qixing. She is here to invite you on behalf of Ningguang. I’m afraid you won’t agree and ask me to be your lobbyist.”

"Ning Guang?"

"invite?"

Ying and Paimon each grasped the key points.

Gan Yu accepted the question: "Yes, I am here to invite you to Qunyu Pavilion on behalf of Tianquan Xing Ningguang."

"Wow, Ningguang, Ningguang...'s messenger is here!" Little Paimeng exclaimed.

In response to Paimeng's exclamation, Ganyu gave him an apologetic look: "I am a person who has returned from Jueyunjian... Please forgive me for my lack of courtesy in this humble community."

Then he took out a letter and handed it to Ying.

"This is an invitation from Ningguang. As Tianquanxing, I invite you to be a guest at Qunyu Pavilion."

Ying took the invitation and said, "We are still having dinner, can we go tomorrow?"

Gan Yu nodded: "Of course!"

Zhongli on the other side said: "Now that things are done, let's stay and have dinner together!"

Gan Yu didn't know Zhongli's identity. She only knew him as a guest at the Palace of Purity.

He quickly shook his head, rejected Zhongli, said that he still had work, and then disappeared into the crowd.

Seeing that Gan Yu refused to leave, Zhongli looked at Wang Daoyi again.

Wang Daoyi showed a forced smile and couldn't tell what Zhongli was thinking. He could only sit down and eat with him.

Ying and Paimon didn't notice the subtle atmosphere between Wang Daoyi and Zhongli, but they still happily ate and chatted, telling Wang Daoyi about their experiences in the past few days, and then talked about Dadalia, the executive of the Fools who saved them.

Listening to their words, Wang Daoyi couldn't help but remind him: "Although Dadalia is a martial arts sect among the Fools, he is still the executive of the Fools. You'd better not trust him too much!"

"Hey, does Dao Yi know Dadalia?"

Paimon questioned.

Wang Dao nodded and didn't say much. He just said that Dadalia had fought with him.

Ying didn't respond to Wang Daoyi's statement. So far, Dadalia didn't show any hostility towards them. Instead, he helped them a lot. At least, he was very generous when paying.

However, she did not refute Wang Daoyi, but simply recorded his reminder in her heart.

After having enough wine and food,

Paimon and Ying looked at Zhongli, they still remembered that someone was treating them this time.

Zhongli clapped his hands in fear and called the waiter.

"Hey, guest guest Zhongli, there are a total of six side dishes, two bowls of dumplings, and a pot of sake. After erasing the loose ends, the total is five hundred moras. You see, whether it is for the Hall of Purity or for Brother Wang."

Zhongli looked at Wang Daoyi.

"Mark it to me." Wang Daoyi recognized the bill knowingly.

Ying and Paimon were stunned by this operation.

"Hey, why can Zhongli treat the guests with the bill on the road?" Paimeng asked.

Ying also showed a strange expression. She always felt an inexplicable sense of déjà vu, as if she had seen this kind of operation before.

Wang Daoyi didn't speak, and Zhongli didn't answer either.

Instead, the waiter who was cleaning up the dishes said, "Haha, you two just came to Liyue recently. Zhongli never has to pay for his meals."

Hearing the waiter's words, Ying's sense of déjà vu became stronger and stronger. Paimon flew to Zhongli's side and quietly asked Zhongli for advice.

"Zhongli, can you teach me how to eat without paying?"

Zhongli nodded and said to Paimon seriously: "Oh, as long as the traveler finds a regular job that can reimburse the bills, then he doesn't need to take Mora to eat."

Hutao: You are amazing and noble.

Paimon was a little moved, but he remembered that Ying's goal was to find his brother. Finally, he sighed and gave up the idea of ​​letting Ying find a permanent job.

After ending the discussion on how to keep accounts, Ying and Paimeng said goodbye to Zhongli: "Zhongli, we are leaving first. Dao Yi, we are going to Wanmin Hall, do you want to come with us?"

Wang Dao glanced at Zhongli and rejected Ying's proposal.

"It's getting late, you go ahead, I'll go home in a minute."

After Ying and Paimon walked away, Wang Daoyi explained: "Haha, Emperor, it was an accident. Ningguang gave her too much, so I have no choice but to work for her."

Zhong Li glanced at Wang Daoyi indifferently, with a bit of disdain in his eyes.

Huh, you actually went against his will for money. It's not like him at all, treating money as nothing.

Looking at Wang Daoyi who was a little frightened, Zhongli shook his head. If it had been before, he would have beaten his ass with less words, but now, he is about to retire, so forget it.

"The time is almost up. The preparations for the ceremony to send the immortals will be completed soon, and the patience of the immortals is almost exhausted."

Zhong Li spoke calmly and introduced the current plan progress to Wang Daoyi.

"When the trust of the Immortals in the Seven Stars reaches the lowest level, the two parties will definitely confront each other. At that time, Dadalia will definitely go to the Golden House to find the Immortal Ancestor Fa Shen. That is when the travelers will see clearly the goal of the Fools' Executive Officer. ”

"And there is no heart of god in the Immortal Ancestor's magic. Dadalia will react. Morax may be faking his death, and then he will use the last resort to force me to take action, which is to use a large number of non-taboos to open the orphan." The seal of Yun Pavilion will release those demon gods suppressed by me."

After saying this, a smile appeared on Zhongli's lips, "Then, which old friend will come out? It should be the most famous Osel!"

Listening to Zhongli's words, Wang Daoyi felt some inexplicable shock. Knowing the plot, of course he knew that what would happen next would be just as Zhongli said, and the story would develop like this.

Different from the plot in the game, Wang Daoyi, who witnessed Zhongli's plan with his own eyes, became more and more in awe of the wisdom of gods and demons.

None of the seven earthly rulers who have ruled Teyvat for thousands of years is simple.

Chapter 95 Prologue

After finishing his conversation with Zhongli, Wang Daoyi returned to the Pier Teahouse. This time he really didn't plan to go out and planned to stay until the matter was over.

In order not to be disturbed again, Wang Daoyi even closed the tearoom for the first time, told Sisi that it was going to be renovated, and asked her to come back to work in a week.

Then a note was posted on the door saying no guests would be accepted due to renovations.

The closure of the dock tea room did not attract much attention. At most, some foremen complained about the extra money they had to spend on tea recently.

On the other side, it was just as Zhongli expected.
