Chapter 357 Moldy
With the help of Tartaglia, Ying and Paimon decided to go to Jueyunjian to seek help from the immortal in order to clear their suspicion, taking the token given by Tartaglia.
As for Krevy, Tartaglia had already received Alechino's letter in advance, so he helped to detain Krevy and prevent her from getting involved in this matter.
Since Tartaglia took out the handwritten letter from Kleve's "parents", and Kleve couldn't deny it, although they were not very reassured, Ying and Paimon had no choice but to go to Jueyunjian.
On the other side, after Liu Bai finished his lunch with a sad heart, he decided to do something for the dead Rock God.
So he brought Nashida to Tianheng Mountain.
This is where he landed when he brought Nashida to Liyue for the first time. From here, you can also see the huge dragon-shaped immortal body on the Yujing Terrace.
“I picked this up!”
Liu Bai just raised his hand and called out.
The next moment, a huge dragon-shaped immortal body appeared in Liu Bai's hands.
Although the dragon-shaped immortal body was huge, Liu Bai was still able to lift it up easily with one hand with his strength.
Of course, it was a dragon after all, and except for the part that Liu Bai lifted up, the rest was dragged on the ground.
"Wait, you're not going to..."
Nashida was originally curious about what Liu Bai was going to do, but when she saw him suddenly bring the dragon-shaped immortal body over, she immediately realized that something was wrong.
"That's right, girl. Brother Zhongli was such a good man. It's so sad that he's gone just like that."
Liu Bai nodded, then put the dragon-shaped immortal body aside.
"So you don't mean... Actually, he didn't..."
Nashida wanted to explain to Liu Bai that she could tell at first glance that this immortal body was actually fake.
Or rather, it was not left behind by the Rock God after his death.
"That's right, girl. Brother Zhongli passed away without any children. I want to arrange a ghost marriage for him."
Liu Bai nodded and answered Nashida's question.
"Ghost marriage?"
Nashida was stunned for a moment. Although it was the first time she heard this word, she felt that she could guess the general meaning.
"Well, but before that, I have to ask Brother Zhongli what kind of person he likes."
After Liu Bai finished speaking, he reached out and rummaged in the small white house, and quickly took out a plate of gray fried eggs with many black spots.
"...?"
Liu Bai leaned closer to the fried egg and took a look at it in confusion.
“Why is my fried egg moldy?!”
Seeing the gray mold and black spots on the fried eggs, Liu Bai couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Of course food will get moldy if it's left out for a long time. Isn't that strange?"
Nashida said as a matter of course.
Although Liu Bai’s fried eggs... contain some "mild" thunder elements lurking in them, it is still food after all.
"That's right... I'll have to let Brother Zhongli down."
Liu Bai had no choice but to nod his head.
But looking at the state of the fried egg, he didn't dare to tear it, so he simply took out chopsticks to pick up the whole fried egg, put it to the mouth of the dragon-shaped fairy, carefully opened its mouth and put it in.
puff--
The next moment, a piece of purple crystal was spit out from the mouth of the dragon-shaped immortal body.
"Ok?"
Liu Bai picked up the crystal piece puzzledly, and then found that the power on it turned into a purple shield.
"What are you doing……?"
At this moment, Zhongli's helpless voice suddenly sounded from the side.
"Brother Zhongli?"
Liu Bai quickly turned around and saw Zhongli walking slowly towards him.
Liu Bai couldn't help but rub his eyes, turned around to look at the dragon-shaped immortal body on the ground that was still spitting out crystal flakes, then looked at Zhongli, feeling a little confused for a moment.
Zhongli looked at the dragon-shaped immortal body on the ground and had no choice but to wave his hand helplessly. A stream of immortal power lifted the dragon-shaped immortal body up and sent it back to its original position while the Qianyan army below was not paying attention.
Seeing the dragon-shaped immortal body being sent back, Liu Bai hesitated for a moment, walked forward and tentatively stretched out his hand towards Zhongli and touched his chest.
"Live?"
Although he felt the strong chest, Liu Bai still couldn't help but ask a question.
"Although it is a little hard to believe, from the perspective of common sense, it is indeed alive."
Zhongli nodded slightly and answered, and politely pushed away Liu Bai's hand that was touching him.
"...That's great. Brother Zhongli, what kind of woman do you like?"
Although he didn't understand why corpses and living people existed at the same time, Liu Bai came to his senses and decided to ask this important question first.
"?"
Zhongli tilted his head subconsciously, then turned back to look at Nashida to confirm what was going on.
"No, this one is mine."
Before Nashida could explain, Liu Bai had already hugged Nashida with his arms.
Nashida felt a little embarrassed when she was suddenly hugged, after all, there was an elder watching her.
"Don't be ridiculous, brother, but why do you suddenly ask such a question?"
Zhongli shook his head helplessly and couldn't help but ask Liu Bai.
"Because I think you, brother Zhongli, are childless and alone. It would be too sad for you to die like this. I wanted to organize a matchmaking meeting for you last time but it didn't work out. So I want to hold a ghost marriage for you so that you can have a companion in the underworld."
Liu Bai then explained why he did this.
"...It is rare to have such a persevering spirit as yours."
Zhongli paused, but still used a good word.
But even the Hall of Rebirth would never do something like a ghost marriage...
"Hey, so who do you like, Zhongli brother?"
Liu Bai smiled foolishly when he was praised, but he continued to ask.
"Well, although you are doing this for my own good, you see I am still alive now, so it is not necessary for the time being."
Zhongli explained with a slight shake of his head, trying to get Liu Bai to give up the idea.
After hearing Zhongli's words, Liu Bai looked back at the dragon-shaped immortal body on the Yujing Terrace, and then looked back at Zhongli.
Then he put his hand to his chin as if thinking.
"How about...holding one blind date and one ghost marriage?"
It was the first time that Liu Bai saw a scene with both corpses and living people, so he had no choice but to make this suggestion.
"Ahem, forget it. Compared to this, aren't you more curious about what happened?"
Zhongli coughed lightly and quickly spoke to divert Liu Bai's attention.
He felt that if they continued talking like this, Liu Bai would have to start planning his wedding.
"Oh yeah, come to think of it, why are there two Zhongli brothers?"
Liu Bai then came to his senses and asked in confusion, and Nashida, who had been held in Liu Bai's arms, also raised her head.
Although she could tell that the dragon-shaped immortal body was not Yan Shen himself, she didn't understand why he faked his death.
"Well... this is just a test for the Seven Stars of Liyue."
Zhongli thought about his words for a moment before he began to explain.
Since the Liyue immortals already knew his identity during the last visit to Jueyunjian, if something like this happened, there would definitely be immortals who would go to the Wangsheng Hall to verify it, or look for Ruoli or Guizhong.
So he simply informed the immortals of his plan in advance, so the entire test this time fell on the Seven Stars of Liyue.
