"In that case, what is your opinion, Shen He?" Li Qiuzhi looked at Shen He and asked.

After all, Aozang Mountain is where her master lives, and she doesn't know whether Master Liuyun would welcome another stranger to disturb her.

"Well, there shouldn't be any problem."

Shen He nodded slightly and said.

"Hehe, thank you very much. But before I leave, I want to go to the outside of Tianheng Mountain and say goodbye to the owner of the small inn where I've been staying these days."

Mona breathed a sigh of relief and said.

[Mona has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 200 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.2 (100/200)]

Her Mora had been used up long ago, and she only managed to avoid starvation by relying on the occasional help from the innkeeper, Mr. Zhu.

But even so, she hadn't eaten for a whole day since her last meal, and her stomach was almost sticking to her back and was about to make a "gurgling" sound.

No, I have to hold it in. I can’t embarrass myself in front of the “apprentice” I just met!

Li Qiuzhi didn't know why Mona looked so conflicted for a moment, but he still had some impression of the innkeeper she was talking about.

The main reason was that the other person's family owned several jade mines and he also started his own business by opening an inn. He was so envious at the time. How could he not have an impression of him?

"Sure, the inn isn't far from here anyway."

Li Qiuzhi didn't have any objection.

Perhaps because the current time point is slightly different from the original plot, Boss Zhu did not lose the jade ring, one of his more than 500 heirlooms.

We just said goodbye briefly and flew towards Aozang Mountain.

With the help of Li Qiuzhi's wind elemental force, they quickly flew and soon arrived at Aozang Mountain. However, they did not find the existence of Master Liuyun Jiefeng on the top of Aozang Mountain.

I don’t know whether he went to other immortals or stayed in the cave to study his own mechanical skills.

"Well, Shen He, let's go first. I'll come to see you when I have time."

After Li Qiuzhi landed at the top of Aozang Mountain, there was nothing else to do, so he said goodbye.

Anyway, with the ability of "interstellar travel", it is very easy to meet Shen He.

"Well, thank you for sending me back. I will come to see you next time I go down the mountain." A smile suddenly appeared on Shen He's fair and cold face.

[Shen He has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 220 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.6 (430/600)]

After leaving Aozang Mountain, Li Qiuzhi and Mona flew towards Mondstadt.

Li Qiuzhi suddenly heard a "gurgling" sound coming from the side. He turned around and found Mona looking listless with her right hand covering her lower abdomen.

It was obvious that the sound just now came from her stomach.

"Don't get me wrong, I was just in a hurry to go out this morning and forgot to eat breakfast. It's definitely not because I can't afford it, Mora!"

Mona noticed that Li Qiuzhi was looking at her with strange eyes, her face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, and she hurriedly explained.

"Haha, so that's how it is. Come to think of it, I'm a little hungry too. Why don't we go get something to eat before heading to Mondstadt?"

Li Qiuzhi did not expose Mona, but just smiled and said.

Please vote for me, please subscribe!

Thanks to "Tianmo" for the reward of 588 coins!

Chapter 303: The Dignified Astrologer

"Uh, no, that's not necessary. Just bear with this little hunger. Let's not waste time."

Mona looked a little embarrassed.

It's not that she didn't want to eat something, it's just that it was a bit difficult for her wallet.

"Don't worry, you don't have to pay. How about I treat you? After all, it's normal for an 'apprentice' to take care of a master who is in financial crisis."

Li Qiuzhi said with a smile.

"Nonsense! I'm not facing any financial crisis. But since you insist on treating me, then, then there's nothing I can do but agree to it."

Mona turned away her slightly red face and spoke in a defiant tone.

Her shawl kept blowing backwards, revealing her snow-white back.

[Mona has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 260 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.3 (160/300)]

Looking at the favorability prompt on the character panel, it seems that Mona is really hungry, otherwise she wouldn't have such a surge in favorability towards him when she heard that he was going to treat her.

"Mona, do you know any restaurants nearby? We should go there now."

Li Qiuzhi said with some amusement.

"Of course, there is a Wangshu Inn just east of where we are now, but it's a bit far from here."

Mona pressed down the brim of her hat and said.

"Wangshu Inn? Yes, I've been there once before. It shouldn't take much time if you fly fast."

Li Qiuzhi nodded.

Next, Li Qiuzhi activated the wind element at full speed and pushed the two of them towards Wangshu Inn.

"Well, as such an excellent astrologer, you shouldn't be unable to find Mora for food, right? Even if you just walk down the street and tell where Mora has fallen on the ground, you don't have to worry about money."

Li Qiuzhi thought about it and asked curiously.

"Well, that won't do. Astrology is a serious subject, not something you can use for such vulgar things.

“If an astrologer thinks that everything can be solved by astrology, then he is not far from being abandoned by the stars.

"Divination will lose its ability to guide, and astrologers will be covered with fog again. Then they will never be able to use astrology to see into the truth and observe fate!"

Mona said that she is an astrologer with dignity and principles, and she would not do this even if she was hungry.

"I said, if astrologers can use astrology at will, then the richest businessman in Teyvat might not be that Lord Tianquanxing."

Li Qiuzhi nodded in understanding.

If astrology could be used freely without restrictions, then one could predict all day long which commodity prices would rise and fall, and then make a fortune with simple operations!

Obviously, this is an exaggeration.

Even the most outstanding astrologer cannot bear such arbitrary cause and effect.

"Yes, that's right. Restricting material desires is also part of an astrologer's practice. Only by living a simple life can one glimpse the truth of the world!"

Mona said the same thing she had always said.

"Even so, you can't let yourself go hungry. After all, without a healthy body and a good mental state, the efficiency of studying astrology will be greatly reduced."

Li Qiuzhi has a different opinion on this.

"Okay, okay, oh, why are you so long-winded like that old woman? I don't want to pay attention to you!"

Mona snorted and turned her head away with some dissatisfaction.

When she left the old woman's place, she still brought some money with her for support, but she never expected that it would be spent so quickly.

The little bit left at the end was for her fare to return home after completing the task assigned by her master.

If I use it, I can only walk back!

"Well, okay, I was just thinking about whether I should support you before you achieve your goal, so that you won't go hungry every day. Since you ignore me, it seems that there is no need."

Li Qiuzhi sighed with a hint of regret.

"What?! You want to sponsor me!" Mona turned her head back in surprise when she heard Li Qiuzhi's words. She coughed twice to cover up her embarrassment, "Ahem, I think you are right. Studying astrology is not something that can be done overnight. You really need a good body to persist. Um, about the sponsorship."

Mona looked at Li Qiuzhi with anticipation, and the star earring hanging on her left ear seemed to be sparkling with golden light in the sunlight.

Who would go hungry when you can eat your fill?

Anyway, it only takes a few days to carry a box, so it’s not shameful to eat and drink for free for a few days.

"Haha, don't worry, it's just a little bit of food money, I'll take care of it from now on, I mean I'll take care of it."

Li Qiuzhi patted his chest and said, then breathed a sigh of relief silently. He almost said something a little offensive in his heart, "I can even support you."

Having said that, considering his net worth of more than 5 million Mora, it is a bit too arrogant for him to say such things.

After all, we know it from the plot in the game.

Mona's astrology research book placed casually in the room is worth more than 900,000 Mora. How many books can he buy? It's impossible to afford it.

As for why she could afford it.

It seems that in order to escape poverty, Mona took on commercial writing assignments and became a horoscope columnist for the Steambird Newspaper, from which she received a good salary every month.

That's why I can afford such expensive books.

But even so, Mona is indeed extremely poor now.

"Huh, you are worthy of being my chosen disciple. You are such a nice person!"

Mona was slightly relieved to see that Li Qiuzhi agreed. She even tried to squeeze out tears to show that she was very touched.

[Mona has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 200 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.4 (60/400)]

"Of course."

Li Qiuzhi nodded in response while looking at the favorability prompt that popped up again.

It seems that it is quite easy to gain Mona's favor. I think this is due to his expertise in making it easier for girls to have a favorable impression of him.

Wangshu Inn.

After flying at full speed for nearly half a day, Li Qiuzhi and Mona finally arrived here before dusk.

It’s the same as what I saw last time when Ying and the others came here.

The freight vehicles of various chambers of commerce stopped here, preparing to eat something before dark and replenish their energy before continuing on their journey.

The two of them folded up their wind wings and landed on the ground. A waiter approached and asked:

"Hello, are you two planning on dining or renting a room?"

"Of course it's to eat." Li Qiuzhi nodded and replied, while Mona on the side was too hungry to speak.

"Okay, please follow me."

The waiter said he understood and led the two to sit at an empty table.

"Please give me a serving of squirrel fish, crispy fried chicken, and crab roe tofu." Li Qiuzhi first told the waiter what he wanted to eat, then handed the menu to Mona across from him and said half-jokingly, "Master, just order whatever you want to eat. Don't be polite to me."

"Hey, can you really let me order whatever I want?"

Mona took the menu and was overwhelmed by the dazzling array of dishes on it. She first looked at the dishes that Li Qiuzhi had ordered just now.

I found that just three dishes cost more than 10,000 Mora.

So expensive.

She hesitated for a moment, but didn't want Li Qiuzhi to spend too much money, so she said to the waiter, "I want a bowl of hot braised noodles with wild delicacies, and one more portion of... um, Tianshu meat."

Please give me a monthly ticket and subscribe~

Chapter 304: Dark Shadow (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

"Is that enough? There's no need to save money for me."

Seeing that Mona casually ordered a bowl of noodles and a dish, Li Qiuzhi thought she was embarrassed and signaled her not to be so polite.

"You're so long-winded. How can a girl have such a big appetite? Isn't it normal to eat less?"

Mona crossed her hands and placed them under her chest wrapped in a hooded jumpsuit. A golden star ornament hung from her shawl, just stopping in the gap between her slightly parted white skin.

"Well, you have a point."

Li Qiuzhi was unable to find a reason to refute for a moment.

But it is obvious that the statement that "girls have small appetites" is wrong. All humans are the same, and even if the stomach organs are slightly different in size, they will not be too different.

Of course, how much you want to eat generally depends on how hungry you are.

That's why Li Qiuzhi was a little surprised that Mona, who had been hungry for a whole day, only ate so little.

Could it be that this is some kind of special ability to withstand hunger that has been acquired through the long struggle with hunger?
