What bad intentions could the original dragon have?

"Besides." Ying paused. "Ningguang has obviously led us there, right?"

When the [Fatui] were studying the 'Talisman of No Taboos', Ningguang was nailed to the wall for Ying to see, and it was obvious that she was to be the one to solve it.

Although it's not a big deal.

"Hmm..." Paimon nodded.

“However, since the ‘Talisman of No Taboos’ belongs to the immortals, I think it would be better for us to tell Linglong.” Ying knew that Zhong Ling’s [Talisman Art] was the pinnacle of Liyue.

What exactly is the function of the 'Talisman of No Taboos'? What do the [Fools] intend to do by studying and copying the 'Talisman of No Taboos'?

When Zhong Ling knew about this, she should have the answer in her heart, so it would be better to tell Zhong Ling.

"So, are we going to 'Tianheng Mountain' now?" Paimon asked, pinching his chin.

"No need." Paimon had just finished speaking when a voice came.

B.45 You are indeed brother and sister (additional update 6/30)

"Wow, it's Linglong!" Paimon heard the voice and looked in the direction of the voice in surprise. Zhong Ling, dressed in green feather clothes, was walking towards him.

"Linglong, why are you here? Aren't you going to leave Tianheng Mountain at night?" Ying asked hurriedly.

"Well, normally I would have planned to come back in the evening." Zhong Ling nodded. "It's just that you two kept talking about me and it seemed like you had something to talk to me about, so I came back early."

"Huh?" Ying blinked.

"Is Linglong... spying on us?" Paimon approached Zhong Ling with a sly smile on his face.

"That's not the case." Zhong Ling shook her head. "Well, if you call the immortal by his name directly, he will be sensed."

“So generally speaking, they are addressed by their fairy names.”

Although Zhong Ling has many names.

Whether it was Naga, Zhong Ling, or Zhong Linglong, she could sense it when the names were mentioned.

But the only ones who call her Linglong are Ying and Paimon...well, plus Zhongli.

"That is to say, if we say bad things about Linglong, Linglong will know it?" Paimeng looked at Ying and asked guiltily.

"Yes, I know." Zhong Ling nodded. "For example, the nickname you gave me, [Water Reimbursement Payer]."

"Um... Linglong, I know I was wrong." Paimon grabbed Zhong Ling's arm pitifully.

"..." Ying pressed her forehead speechlessly. 'I don't think...I have said anything bad about Linglong, right?'

Ying carefully recalled what she had said, then nodded with satisfaction.

Because Zhong Ling is a good woman, Ying can't find any flaws in her.

Of course, even Zhong Ling is not perfect and she definitely has some shortcomings, but even if she does have shortcomings, they are not big ones and are not to the point where they would be brought up.

"You little brat." Zhong Ling tapped Paimeng's forehead with her fingertips. "I'm not so petty as to care about these things."

"Then rest assured."

"Huh..." Paimon breathed a sigh of relief.

If Zhong Ling doesn't give her food in the future, she will starve to death.

"Let's see if you dare to say nonsense again in the future." Ying raised her eyebrows at Paimeng.

"I don't dare anymore." Paimon shook his head vigorously.

Paimeng probably understood the principle that trouble comes from the mouth.

"You guys have been talking about me. Is there something going on?" Zhong Ling looked at Ying and asked. "Or did you encounter any difficulties on your trip to the 'Qun Yu Pavilion'?"

"Well, this is what happened." Ying told Zhong Ling what she had learned at the 'Qun Yu Pavilion'.

"Oh? Copy the 'Talisman of No Taboos'?" Zhong Ling stretched out her hand towards Ying.

Although there was no conversation, Ying understood what Zhong Ling meant. She took out the 'Talisman of No Taboos' that she had used when searching for the immortal before and placed it in Zhong Ling's hand.

"Well... this 'Hundred Taboos Scroll' is real." Zhong Ling said after taking a look.

"Why is Linglong so sure?" Paimeng asked curiously.

"Isn't this natural? This talisman is from thousands of years ago. If it was made from talisman paper now, there would be no trace of time." Zhong Ling looked at the 'Talisman of No Taboos' in his hand. "However, the purpose of the Fatui copying this thing... I have roughly guessed it."

"You are worthy of being called Linglong," Ying said with shining eyes.

"Haha, because although the 'Hundred No Taboos' has a wide range of uses, it still has a tendency in the end." Zhong Ling's eyes narrowed slightly. 'It's really true that any cat or dog dares to covet the Eight Trigrams.'

Although Baqiu was indeed defeated by them, there is no doubt about Baqiu's strength.

Liyue also suffered heavy damage when it defeated the Eight Qiu. If it belittled the power of the Eight Qiu, it would be no different from belittling itself.

Although Zhong Ling has a deep hatred for Ba Qiu, it does not mean that anyone is qualified to covet Ba Qiu.

"But this is not a big deal." Zhong Ling handed the 'Hundred Taboos' to Ying. "Keep it, it is also a rare collection."

"Linglong doesn't need it?" Ying didn't take it directly.

"No, I still have a lot." Zhong Ling said casually. "This kind of fairy item is so expensive that it is unimaginable for ordinary people, but it is just something that is within my reach for me."

"The value of many things in Liyue is changing. Many things that were once everywhere and worthless have now become priceless."

"Ah, this..." Ying remembered what Zhongli had said before.

"Well, from a common sense point of view, Naga is indeed very rich. How rich is she... Perhaps her wealth has exceeded her own cognition."

Zhong Ling is a super rich woman chosen by Mora herself.

"Okay." Although it's useless, it's nice to put it away as a collection.

"By the way, after things are resolved, I'll give Ying something." Zhong Ling suddenly thought of something to give Ying, and then said with a mysterious smile.

"What is it?" Ying was indeed interested.

"I won't tell you. I'll tell you after all these things are resolved." Zhong Ling kept it a secret.

"...Okay." Ying pursed her lips. "But, Linglong, are you really not going to take a look?"

"That's not necessary." Zhong Ling shook her head. "Because I have roughly guessed what the Fatui's purpose is, and what they want is something I can solve, and I have already made a backup plan."

"So that's how it is." Ying thought, how come Zhong Ling seemed to know everything, she was really amazing. "So, Linglong, what are your plans next? It's still early now."

I arrived at the 'Qun Yu Pavilion' at noon to keep the appointment, and after chatting for a few words I left. It hasn't even been an hour yet.

"It's still early, but have you eaten yet?"

"Well, no." Ying shook her head. "Although Ningguang invited us to stay for lunch, but..."

"But in that kind of environment, you can't even eat in peace." Paimon said with a pursed lip.

"Is that so? Let's go eat then." Zhong Ling looked around. "It just so happens that this place is very close to 'Xin Yue Xuan', so let's go to 'Xin Yue Xuan'."

"Although Linglong and Mr. Zhongli are very similar in many ways, they are very different in terms of taste." After hearing Zhong Ling's choice, Ying said with a smile. "Mr. Zhongli doesn't like seafood or river food at all."

"Oh, you mean this." Zhong Ling thought about the reason and said, "That's because during the Demon God War, a kind of monster appeared in the sea. They have soft skin, dense scales, move very fast, have strong vitality, are slimy, and are very small. They are everywhere. Each of them is about... only the size of a finger."

"Can you imagine the feeling of having to catch tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of these monsters one by one, everywhere?"

"..." Listening to Zhong Ling's narration which had been greatly simplified, Ying still shuddered involuntarily.

"So, after that, I kept my distance from all living, squirming aquatic creatures..." Zhong Ling said, glancing around. "Even water slimes make me sick."

"..." Ying suddenly felt that they were indeed brother and sister. Apart from their tastes, even their way of digging up each other's dark history were surprisingly similar.

Zhongli said that Zhong Ling almost wiped out the Shanyin Jinchui.

Zhong Ling said that Zhong Li felt nauseous when he saw any kind of seafood.

B.46 Historic Meeting

"It's so great to be with Linglong." Ying sighed after touching her bulging belly.

"Because I can pay, right?" Zhong Ling asked with a smile.

"Well, this is only a small part of the reason!" Ying did not deny it, but it was really only a small part of the reason.

Mainly, I feel very relaxed when I am with Zhong Ling.

But when she and Zhongli went out to eat, she always felt very restrained.

Well... this is also normal, leaving aside the two identities of [Emperor Rock King] and [Cangming Yuanjun].

Zhongli gives people the impression of being very serious and solemn, while Zhong Ling is more like a pure young lady and it is very easy to get along with her.

There is another reason... Zhong Ling is the person I like, and Zhong Li is the parent of the person I like...

To the extent that Ying always had a feeling that if she didn't do well, Zhongli would reduce her score.

"Hmph~" Zhong Ling snorted softly.

"Hehe... What has Linglong been doing these days? She isn't sitting on Mount Tianheng all the time, is she?" Ying found a topic.

"Well, I made some arrangements, and then I sat on the Tianheng Mountain and stared blankly." Zhong Ling nodded. She really was sitting on the Tianheng Mountain and staring blankly.

"Well, you would rather go to 'Tianheng Mountain' and be in a daze than accompany me...us?" Ying said with puffed cheeks.

"That's right." Paimon said, his hands on his hips. "We've been running around these past few days."

"But the harvest is not small, right?" Zhong Ling tilted her head, mainly talking about Ying's harvest.

She received very good comments from Zhongli.

"There's nothing to gain, and Mora didn't make much either." Paimon shook his head and said, "If you calculate carefully, I only made a little bit of money for running errands."

After all, there is little chance of making money from actual expenses.

"Hey~ Didn't you earn a lot of food?" Zhong Ling rubbed Paimeng's cheek. "You followed your brother these days and ate a lot of good food, right?"

"No, these are all the stores I went to with Linglong." Paimon's words were a little unclear because his cheeks were being rubbed. "Besides, it feels different."

"Feel different? What's different?" Zhong Ling asked with a smile.

"Usually Linglong pays, but these days I've started paying myself, so it feels different." Paimeng said, spreading his hands.

"...Paimon." Ying reached out and rubbed Paimon's head hard. "You will really lose Linglong if you do this."

"Eh?" Paimon tilted her head, then she opened her mouth. "I...I didn't mean that! Linglong, I'm sorry..."

"Paimon, ah Paimon..." Ying sighed.

What does it mean that Zhong Ling usually pays, but I have to pay these days?

Paimeng has no money, and the person who paid these days was Ying.

Obviously they have always been together, but what Paimon said is as if Paimon + Ying are one, while Zhong Ling is separate.

If you have only known each other for a day or two, it would be okay to say such things, but after being together for such a long time, it is very sad to say such things.

"Okay, I'm not that stingy, Ying, don't scare Paimon."

"Who told Paimon to always speak without thinking?" Ying shrugged.

"Hehe~~" Seeing Ying's look, Zhong Ling chuckled, because she knew that Ying was protecting herself.

So Zhong Ling was quite happy.

"By the way, what should we do now?" Originally, he planned to stay in a daze on Tianheng Mountain... and meditate for another ten hours before going back to bed with Yingzuan at night.

As a result, she was called down now, so there was no need to go back to Tianheng Mountain for meditation.

"Well, my brother was going to Bubulu to complete his reply when we separated, but he didn't go because he didn't bring any money. Let's ask him to go to Bubulu."

"Um, why do we have to call Mr. Zhongli?" Ying asked puzzledly.

If it was about the [Coconut Sheep], they would be able to answer Qiqi. If there was anything else, Zhong Ling would also be able to answer it.

After all, Zhong Ling is an expert on Liyue who is no less skilled than Zhongli.

"If they are going to buy things, Mr. Zhongli will be of no use, right?" Ying asked doubtfully. If they were going to buy something, they could just go. Zhongli was of no use anyway.

At least it's useless in this kind of situation where you need to pay.

As for the 'Eternal Life Incense', Ying felt that Zhong Ling would definitely recognize it.

And Zhong Ling is rich...When you think about it this way, Zhong Ling is basically Zhongli plus.

"Indeed." After hearing what Ying said, Zhong Ling nodded almost without hesitation.
