Chapter 7: Beside the Hall of Rebirth

What Ying said left Xing speechless for a moment.

"Anyway, let's find a place to live first. There's no rush about this matter. Well, no rush..." Xing picked up the soup in front of him and took a sip slowly.

"It's urgent, okay?" Ying pouted a little dissatisfied, but didn't say anything and continued to enjoy the food on the table.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, given Xing's physique, it is possible that someone would come to you on their own initiative.

Anyway, that Yuhengxing has already met Xing once...

Ying also calmed down and ate breakfast in silence.

As for Paimon, he had been eating since the beginning and didn't pay much attention to the content of the conversation between the two people.

After all, Paimon couldn't quite understand what the two people were saying, so it was better to focus on the food.

While they weren't paying attention, I snatched away all the delicious food...

After breakfast.

They were not in a hurry to leave, but planned to chat with Xiangling when she was free.

However, the business of Wanmin Hall seemed to be too good. It was very busy the whole morning. When I finally had a chance to rest, I saw that it was almost noon.

Although it is not yet time for the people of Liyue to come for lunch, the ingredients and other things need to be prepared quickly at this time, otherwise it will be too late to prepare them later.

In this case, Xing and Ying really can't disturb Xiangling anymore.

"Then, we'll leave." Xing said goodbye to Xiangling.

"Well! I'm sorry I can't entertain you during this period. I'll come and visit you again when Wanmin Hall is not so busy in the future!" Xiangling said a little embarrassedly.

"Okay...but will Wanmin Hall have any free time?" Paimon tilted his head in confusion.

“Yes, there are some. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to go to Liyue to look for ingredients before.” Xiangling said with a smile.

The time when Wanmin Hall was not busy should be the time when there were no important activities in Liyue Harbor and those who went out to sea had left the port.

By then, her father will be enough in the store and she won't be needed.

"Then you have to take us around for a good look at the place when the time comes...By the way, Xiangling, do you know where I can rent a house?" Ying couldn't help but ask.

"Well, it would be best if the rent wasn't that expensive." Xing nodded and added.

"Rent a house? Let me think about it..." Xiangling touched her chin and began to think.

In a place like Liyue Harbor where every inch of land is valuable, there are very few houses with cheap rent.

Even if there are any, they are basically located in remote areas, which makes living there not very convenient.

"I do know that there is a place in Liyue Harbor where the houses are relatively cheap, but..." Xiangling's tone suddenly became a little hesitant.

"What's wrong?" Xing looked at Xiangling puzzledly.

"Um, do you know the Hall of Rebirth?" Xiang Ling scratched her head and then asked the two of them.

"The Hall of Rebirth?" Xing and Ying looked at each other and then shook their heads together.

From the name, it is hard to figure out what this Wangsheng Hall is used for.

"It's a store that specializes in funeral services. The house I'm talking about is next to the Hall of the Dead, and it seems to have been vacant for a long time."

Originally it was a shop, but because there was a temple next door, unless you sold funeral items, basically no business was good no matter what you sold.

As time went by, fewer people were willing to rent the shop, and there were even many rumors of ghosts from people who had lived there.

Of course, Xiangling didn't believe in ghosts. But if there really were ghosts near the Hall of Rebirth, the hall master would not just ignore it.

I just don’t know how Xing and Ying will accept this matter.

Although it was originally a shop for rent, there is nothing wrong with using it as a residence.

"It's okay, we'll go over there and take a look. Thank you, Xiangling, you've been a great help!" Xing happily held Xiangling's hand.

She doesn't care whether it's haunted or not. No matter how scary something is, it will be reduced to ashes under her bat.

"No, nothing." Xiangling's expression suddenly became a little unnatural, but she didn't pull her hand away.

The temperature of Xing's palms was unexpectedly warm, even warmer than her hands which she used to cook all year round. So comfortable...

-------------------------------

"I, are we really going to rent that haunted house?" Paimon finally couldn't help but speak.

They were on their way to the house following Xiangling's instructions.

"Are you scared, little Paimon?" Xing couldn't help but ask with a smile.

"I, I'm not scared! I'm just worried about your safety!" Paimon said stubbornly.

"There are no ghosts in the world. The person who first rented the shop must have found that his goods could not be sold, so he made up a story about the haunting in order to save face for himself when he moved out." Ying analyzed to Paimeng very rationally.

Her analysis might be very close to the correct answer.

"You, what you said makes sense... Now that you put it that way, I'm suddenly not afraid anymore." Paimon nodded in agreement.

"Oh? But didn't you just say that you were not afraid, but just worried about our safety?" Xing asked in a puzzled manner.

"Ahem, ah, Xiangling's cooking is so delicious. Why don't we come again in the evening?" Paimeng changed the subject very abruptly.

"..."

"Come to think of it, the Hall of Rebirth doesn't seem to be in a very remote location." Ying turned her head and looked ahead.

Feiyunpo can be said to be a very prosperous commercial area in Liyue Harbor. Various time-honored brands are clustered together and it is very popular.

The Hall of Rebirth is located in the southern part of Feiyunpo. Even if you continue walking north for a short distance, you will find Xiguju, a famous antique shop in Liyue.

Of course, if we have to say, the store of Wangshengtang is still somewhat hidden in Feiyunpo, and the main door is not facing the street.

The house they planned to rent was right between Wangsheng Hall and Xiguju.

It should be the one next to the Wangsheng Hall...

"Hey? Why is there someone in front?" Xing's voice brought Ying back to his senses.

Ying looked up and saw that it should be in front of the house they were planning to rent. There was a girl with two ponytails, a black hat, a black robe, and black shorts standing there, constantly looking at something.

"Is there anyone who wants to rent that house before us?" Ying raised her eyebrows. If that was really the case, then they were too unlucky.

"Didn't Xiangling say that no one has been there for a long time? It can't be such a coincidence, right?" Xing couldn't help but say.

"Well, let's go take a look first. If you really come to rent a house, it's up to you, Xing."

"me?"

"Yeah, that's right." Ying nodded.

After all, she is still a girl. Under Xing's charm, she might give up her house after some negotiation.

As the title says, I was busy with some things at home today and went out all day. I just got home and I was so tired that I have no energy to write at all, especially since I have lost my full attendance record for this month, so I have no motivation at all.

terribly sorry!

However! Starting from next month, there will be a lot of updates, please rest assured, because if there is no update, I will have to eat dirt next month.

Anyway, I'm so sorry!!!

Chapter 8 How about staying as a waiter at Wangsheng Hall?

"Wow, what a pretty girl, where are you from?" The girl came in front of Xing and looked at Xing's face carefully.

The distance was so close that Xing felt that he could even smell the faint scent of plum blossoms on the other person.

This seemed to be the first time she met someone who came so close to her when they first met.

"We are just travelers who have just arrived in Liyue." Xing couldn't help but take a step back, then spoke slowly.

The girl's appearance was undoubtedly excellent, although some parts of her appearance were a little regrettable, but Xing didn't particularly care about it.

The so-called distance, height and depth are different, and the feelings are naturally different. It should be said that every kind of scenery has its own unique features... ahem.

Xing shook his head, threw aside the strange thoughts in his mind, and turned his attention back to the girl.

"I see. No wonder you came to a place like this. Ordinary people would avoid the Hall of Rebirth." The girl nodded and her eyes then turned to Ying and Paimeng.

"Hello everyone, my name is Hu Tao, and I'm the 77th head of the Wangsheng Hall. I'm in charge of... well, those small matters concerning life and death." The girl introduced herself.

"I'm Paimon, and these two are Xing and Ying." Paimon also spoke quickly.

It seemed that Paimon was the one who completed the task of introducing himself every time, and it had become a habit without him noticing.

"You said that you are the head of the Wangsheng Hall?" Ying noticed what Hu Tao said just now and looked at her in surprise.

It is really strange that the owner of a funeral business like Wangsheng Hall is such a young girl.

"Yes, I am the 77th generation, and my grandfather is the 75th generation. The Wangsheng Hall has been passed down from generation to generation." Hu Tao nodded with a smile.

Xing was a little confused as to why Walnut skipped the 76th generation. She thought there must be some special reason, but she didn't ask any further questions.

"But why are you guys here? You look radiant and healthy, but it will be hard for you to become my clients in a short period of time..." Walnut stroked his chin and looked at them.

When his eyes swept over the stars, he paused.

"Well, it's hard to say." Walnut said in a low voice.

She inexplicably felt that Xing's body was a little strange. Apart from the inexplicable sense of affinity and attraction, it was as if there was a stable fire slime in her body.

"Client?" Paimeng hadn't figured out what that meant yet.

"Yes, customers... yes, yes, would you like to make reservations for the Wangsheng Hall? We are your best choice. Miss Xing looks so friendly. I can give you a group purchase discount. How about half price for the second monument?"

"Eh?! This, that, how should I say this..." Paimon probably figured out what Walnut meant by customers and reservation services, but for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

I always feel that this girl's thinking seems to be a little too jumpy.

"Uh, no, that's not necessary. We are not yet at the age where we need to think about what will happen after our death..." Ying was also a little uncomfortable and said quickly.

"Oh, people, birth, aging, sickness and death are inevitable. We have to think about them sooner or later. Why not do it sooner?" Hu Tao didn't seem to have the idea of ​​giving up and continued to persuade.

"I can guarantee that in the entire Liyue, there is absolutely no one more professional than the Wangsheng Hall."

"Ahem, Miss Walnut, compared to those things, you have been standing in front of this house just now. Is there something wrong with this house?" Xing coughed lightly twice and changed the subject.

"Just call me Hu Tao. As for this house..." Hu Tao waved her hand, then turned her head to look at the house next to the Wangsheng Hall.

"There's nothing wrong with this place, it's just that it has never been rented out. It's empty anyway, so I'm planning to buy it and put some coffin boards in it."

---------------------------

Standing on the street and chatting was not a big deal, so Hu Tao warmly invited everyone to sit in the Wangsheng Hall and have a cup of tea.

By the way, Hu Tao also wants to continue promoting the business of Wangsheng Hall.

It was gloomy and a little cold in the Hall of Rebirth, but this little bit of cold was no big deal for Ying and Xing, and even Paimon wouldn't feel uncomfortable because of it.

It's like entering an air-conditioned room in the summer, so overall it's okay.

But even so, Hu Tao was still worried that they would not be able to adapt to the new environment, so she asked someone to bring them a few cups of hot tea.

At the tea table, Walnut also roughly understood why they came here.

"So you are planning to rent that house..." Walnut began to ponder.

"Well, because we just came to Liyue and we don't have enough funds, we really can't find a cheaper house than here." Ying nodded, then winked at Xing.

"Yes, well, if Kurumi is not in a hurry, could you give it to us first...we can only rent it for two months at most." Xingye quickly asked.

"Well, putting the coffin lid away is not a very urgent matter, so it's okay to give it to you." Walnut finally nodded.
