Paimeng complained: "I always feel that you have completely become a Liyue person."

Tartaglia smiled brightly, "Thanks for the compliment, Paimon-chan. So, do you guys want to go?"

"Let's go. I just happen to want to find a place to talk to Zhongli. You guys can listen, too."

Li Xiao did not refuse the free meal, and it would be good if Tartaglia was present for what happened next.

"Oh?" Tartaglia narrowed his eyes, feeling that he would hear something interesting later.

After bidding farewell to Qiqi who was somewhat reluctant to leave, everyone came to the Glazed Pavilion together.

Because there was no reservation in advance, the young master directly increased the price tenfold and asked for a private room.

After ordering the dishes, everyone took their seats.

Ying sat next to Li Xiao, and Paimeng sat in her arms, swinging his white little feet.

"So what does Li Xiao want to say here?"

Paimeng asked curiously while eating the candied haws he bought on the road.

"I recently gained a new ability unexpectedly, so I want to make a deal with you, Zhongli."

"Oh?" Zhongli put down the teacup and prepared to listen to what he said next.

"My new ability is resurrection."

Li Xiao said in a calm tone what shocked everyone.

The atmosphere on the field suddenly became quiet, and even Paimeng's expression became solemn.

Tartaglia frowned and looked at Li Xiao in disbelief. Even he knew very well what the ability of resurrection meant.

"Resurrection? Are you sure this isn't a joke?"

Li Xiao said seriously: "I'm not kidding. No matter how they died or who they were, I can resurrect them."

Zhongli clenched his fists unconsciously, and his heart, which had been tempered by the years and had long been as hard as a rock, began to waver at this moment.

If what Li Xiao said is true, will he have the chance to see his deceased friends again?

Those friends who fought side by side with him for a long time but eventually had to pass away seemed to appear before his eyes one by one.

Zhongli exhaled lightly, and spoke with an unprecedented serious tone: "What do you want?"

He secretly decided in his heart that as long as it did not violate his principles and bottom line, he would do his best to meet any request Li Xiao made.

Not to mention what he said before about the four gods carrying the coffin, he would even agree to it even if he wanted to have a disco on his own grave.

Li Xiao blinked, a smile appeared on his face, and he said shyly: "Actually, I have a few girls I like, and I want you to help me introduce them to each other."

"......that's all?"

Zhongli did not hold back his expression, and his face was full of disbelief. He stared at Li Xiao blankly, seemingly unable to understand Li Xiao's thoughts.

Not only did he not understand, a big question mark appeared on the heads of other people present. You spent all this time and even used a magical skill like resurrection, and in the end it was just for this kind of thing?

This ability is enough to cause a world riot! You're trading it just for a little sentimental thing?

However, Ying, who was present, had known Li Xiao since Mond, so she had some understanding of him.

She thought about it and immediately realized that Li Xiao's nasty nature was probably acting up again, and she couldn't help feeling speechless.

Li Xiao replied to Zhongli: "Of course it's not just that, the main reason is that these people are hard to be moved, so you, an acquaintance, are needed to persuade them.

How about this, as long as we become one, I will help you revive one person, one for one, what do you think, it's fair, right?"

Zhongli felt a little complicated. Isn't this just pimping?

He never expected that one day he would be asked to do something like this, and he was somewhat unable to refuse.

Under the gazes of the crowd, he was silent for a long time before he slowly said, "Can you tell me who they are?"

Li Xiao began to read out the menu: "Gan Yu, Shen He, Yan Fei, True Lord Liu Yun Jie Feng, True Lord Ge Chen Lang Shi.

Of course, I am also interested in Water and Fire Yaksha and Dust King Guizhong, but they haven't been resurrected yet, so forget about them for now."

Hearing these names, Zhongli's hands began to tremble a little.

These people are his subordinates, friends, and juniors, so he is a little reluctant to say this.

And is it really worth it to exchange their happiness for the return of old friends?

Li Xiao saw his dilemma and spoke to him again:

"You don't have to force them to agree, I follow the principle of voluntariness here.

You just need to tell them about it, and they will come to me if they want to."

Zhongli was speechless. He knew these people very well. If they knew that Li Xiao could resurrect their old friends, they would most likely agree.

In this way, conveying this message to them is invisibly equivalent to making a request to them.

Li Xiao patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry about it. Everyone has their own judgment and choice. Let them decide for themselves."

Zhongli closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and thought for a long time.

Finally, when Zhongli opened his eyes again, there was a firmness in his gaze.

"I see. I will inform them about this later."

Even if he didn't say it, Li Xiao would go find them, so it would be better for him to be the "bad guy" for Li Xiao.

In this way, even if they really agreed, they would not have any unnecessary conflicts with Li Xiao.

"That's great!" Li Xiao showed a relaxed smile on his face, "But, aren't you going to continue with your plan?"

Li Xiao was referring to Zhongli's plan to test Liyue. If he notified these people at this time, his identity would be exposed and the original plan would be interrupted.

"It's all right."

Zhongli shook his head calmly. Since there were other people around, he didn't explain too much.

Li Xiao nodded. Since Zhongli had his own considerations, he didn't say much.

"Um, Lord Wind God..."

Tartaglia, who was sitting opposite Li Xiao, stood up and ran over very servilely, filled his cup of tea, then rubbed his hands beside him with a smile on his face.

Seeing his flattering look, Li Xiao got goose bumps all over his body.

"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't be like this. This is not like you at all."

"Ahem." Tartaglia coughed and his expression returned to normal.

"I want to ask if you are interested in doing business with me? We have many beauties in Zhidong. Just tell me and I will send them to you immediately."

Tartaglia patted her chest, looking confident. It was as if the beauties of Zhidong were ready at any time, just waiting for Li Xiao's order.

"Oh?" Li Xiao became interested. He originally asked him to join in to see if he could get in touch with Zhidong, but he didn't expect that Tartaglia would bring it up first.

"Are you sure anyone can do it?" Li Xiao confirmed.

"Of course!" Tartaglia answered without hesitation.

"What if I say I like your Winter Queen?"

Hearing this, Tartaglia's expression changed instantly. He frowned and said in an unhappy tone: "Are you kidding?"

The noble Queen is the faith in the hearts of all the people of Zhidong. He will never allow anyone to disrespect the Queen, not even gods.

"I'm not kidding. Not only your queen, but also the third seat girl of your executive officers - Columbia, the seventh seat puppet - Sandone, and the eighth seat lady - Rosalin, I am all interested in them."

The reason why there was no servant Alechino was because he had already taken her in as his subordinate in Fontaine. He just didn't know whether she had left the Fatui at present, after all, he hadn't paid attention to her since then.

Hearing his request, Tartaglia rejected it outright: "That's impossible!"

Not to mention Her Majesty the Queen, even the other executives would not listen to him and offer themselves to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao supported his face with one hand and said casually, "But didn't you just say that anyone can do it?"

Tartaglia took a breath and spoke again: "They are the only ones who can't do it. You can change to someone else. Anyone can do it this time."

After all, the ability to resurrect is too important, so he didn't get angry because of the Queen of Winter.

Li Xiao laughed. It was this sentence again.

"I heard you have a sister, her name is Tonya, right?"

Tartaglia's forehead was instantly bulging with veins. He clenched his fists, resisting the urge to punch Li Xiao. He gritted his teeth and said, "She has nothing to do with this matter. Don't go after her!"

He really didn't expect that his sister would be dragged into this matter.

His family is his Achilles' heel, and he will never agree to this.

"You don't agree with this, and you don't agree with that. Then you should let the Queen of Winter talk to me in person."

"Okay! I will report this to the Queen."

After saying this, Tartaglia left the place decisively. He was afraid that Li Xiao would say something else and he would not be able to hold back and just go up and do it.

Of course, this was also because Tartaglia knew that he was no match for Li Xiao, and he had to report today's events to the Queen of Winter as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would have rushed up to fight with Li Xiao.

Paimon, who had been watching the show nearby, looked at his back as he left and suddenly asked, "Are you leaving just like that, Master?"

Li Xiao looked at the little thing and asked, "Why, you still can't bear to part with him?"

"That's not the case." Paimon shook his head. "I just want to know if he paid for today's meal. If not, who will pay after he leaves?"

The people present looked at each other and fell into silence for a moment.

"Let me make it clear first, I have no money!"

Ying spoke first, covering her wallet and looking at others with a vigilant look.

She had earned all her money through hard work with Hu Tao, such as digging graves, exorcising ghosts, and distributing flyers, so she didn't want to spend it here.

Li Xiao also spread his hands, looking helpless.

"I don't have any money either. I spent all the money that Grandpa Diluk gave me before, and I forgot to ask him for more."

So everyone present looked at Zhongli who started drinking tea again. Although they knew this man's character, they couldn't help but feel a little hopeful.

“Hmm…” Zhongli felt around his body and said, “Sorry, I don’t have my wallet with me either.”

"Now what?"

Paimeng was a little anxious. She really wanted to eat this feast. She couldn't give up now, right?

Paimeng felt so upset when he thought about not being able to enjoy the feast that was right in front of him.

"How about keeping accounts?"

Zhongli made a suggestion, which was in line with his habits.

Ying asked, "Whose account should we put on it then?"

Li Xiao suggested: "Just the young master."

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate? The young master has already left, but we still put it on his account."

Paimon's conscience felt a little uneasy.

Ying pulled her cheek, "Don't you want to have a big meal? And the master said before that he would treat us, and this is not against his wishes."

"OK then!"

Paimon thought of the temptation of the feast and instantly abandoned his conscience.

Soon, all the dishes were served and everyone started to eat.

However, Li Xiao and Zhongli only tasted a few bites of each dish before putting down their chopsticks, but Ying and Paimeng were different. They stuffed the food into their mouths with all their might.

Especially Paimon, he looks like a starving ghost reincarnated.

Li Xiao was afraid that they would choke, so he poured them a cup of tea and gave them some advice.

"Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you."

Paimon took the teacup, drank it in one gulp, and swallowed the food in his mouth.

"You don't understand. Opportunities like this to have a good meal are rare for us."

After saying that, Paimon continued to work hard.

In the end, Ying was the first to collapse, leaving Paimeng alone, who ate 80% of the food on the table.

After finishing the last bite, both of them had big bellies and lay down on their seats burping with a look of satisfaction.
