"What a pity! The people of Liyue won't be able to watch this big show!" Yu Jin said, shaking his head regretfully.
“Ahem… Brother Yu Jin, I still have to save some face. Besides, the people of Liyue probably won’t be able to accept this development.”
Zhongli laughed. He had originally thought of this, but now, he was just glad that he didn't say it out loud.
If what Yu Jin said had really happened, the Rock God Morax would have been strangled by an unknown demon. This news would have shocked more than just Liyue.
Zhongli looked at the body of the strange beast lying quietly in front of him, glanced at the embers holding the fire beside him, and sighed with relief.
Now, everything is ready. Next, it depends on whether the people of Liyue can take on this responsibility that originally belonged to the gods.
"Brother Yu Jin, you came at the right time this time." Zhongli smiled, and this time his tone was relaxed for the first time in a long time.
"What's a coincidence? I just happened to see the Rock God?" Yu Jin said nonchalantly. He had seen too many gods fall.
“Not only that, maybe we can even see the people of Liyue working together to suppress the demon god!”
【If everything goes well. 】
Zhongli said secretly in his heart. The seal that suppressed the Whirlpool Demon God has weakened a lot.
If the seal is really lifted, it will be an opportunity to strike a blow to Osel, who is ready to make a move, and at the same time test the people of Liyue.
"I just don't know if you have the courage to do it." Zhongli muttered to himself, holding the bright Heart of God in his hand.
Chapter 244: The Unrestricted Talisman
2023-10-21
"Suppress the demon?" The figure of a raccoon emerged in Yu Jin's mind.
No way, Guoba is already in such a miserable state, and we still want to bully it? Yu Jin looked at Zhongli. He didn't expect that this guy looked gentle as jade, but his heart was also very dark.
"What's the matter? Brother Yu Jin, do you think Liyue can't handle it?" Zhongli asked in confusion when he saw Yu Jin staring at him.
"I just wonder where you are going to find the demon. The demons should be sealed or their power should be lost by now, right?" Yu Jin thought of Guoba's adorable figure.
It's good at being cute and can breathe fire while cooking, but if you ask it to do other things, I don't think it will be very good.
“Haha, Brother Yujin, you don’t know that Liyue is the most tragic corner of the Demon God War. The sealed Demon God can still be found if you want to.”
Zhongli said as he picked up the collapsed avatar on the ground, turned around and walked towards the ground.
"It's just right. We have guests coming to visit us. Brother Yu Jin, please join me in welcoming them. After all, it is necessary to understand the background before the grand opening."
……
Inside the reception room of the Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao was staring intently at the visitor in front of her.
"Ha...haha, Master Hu, is there something on my face?" The young man felt Hu Tao's gaze and touched his cheek somewhat unnaturally.
Could it be that Hu Tao found out that I didn’t wash my face today?
"Nothing, I just wanted to see what's different about the famous executive." Walnut withdrew his gaze and said lightly.
It seems that this ordinary person named "Gongzi" is no different?
Hu Tao touched her chin. Yu Jin said that the executive officers were all old men who had lived for hundreds of years. That was why she used the secret method of the Wangsheng Hall to see what was different between the young master and others.
But in terms of the result, the young master really seemed to be an ordinary young man. His blood and qi were full, and he was full of vitality. He didn't have the abrupt feeling of someone who had his life extended by force, which was against the will of heaven and earth.
Is there something wrong with her eyes or is the young master really just a powerful person?
Just as Hu Tao was frowning and thinking hard, the young master sitting next to him spoke.
"Master Hu, is Mr. Zhongli here?"
"Zhongli? He and his friends went to the basement to carve patterns on the coffin. It's best not to disturb him." Hu Tao came back to her senses and replied.
Zhongli is the busiest man in the Wangsheng Hall. He is responsible for the style of the coffin, the funeral procedures, the utensils needed... these are all his responsibilities.
You ask her what a hall master does? Does presiding over funerals count? Does selling products everywhere count?
She, as the hall master, is also busy!
"Okay...well, I won't bother you anymore." Upon hearing this, the young master stood up with some regret and prepared to leave.
Liyue is good in every way, except that sometimes it has too many particular things. Regarding Zhongli engraving the coffin, he said he didn't understand it, but was deeply shocked.
"No need. It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. I have just finished dealing with it." A deep and magnetic voice came, and Zhongli walked in from a side door of the reception room.
With him was the embers looking around.
"It's you!"
"It's you, the one who got beaten by the Hillilch, the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard, the Exploding Flame Tree, and the Night Orchid!"
Yu Jin pointed at the Young Master and uttered a series of names. They all had one thing in common: they had all beaten the Young Master.
After hearing what Yu Jin said, Hu Tao immediately looked at the young master again. Is this really an executive? It's ok to be beaten by the ancient rock dragon lizard, but he can also be beaten by the hill people?
I'm afraid he's here to scam me?
Walnut's suspicious eyes wandered all over the young master. Feeling this suspicious gaze, the young master suddenly felt a little angry. He said in shame and anger:
"That's because I didn't use my full strength! It just so happens that I wanted to fight you last time, and this time it's just a coincidence. Come on, I'll let you know the true strength of the executive officer!"
"Um... Actually, I know the strength of your executive officer." Yu Jin spread his hands. He felt quite comfortable being roasted by the fire on the lady's body.
But unfortunately, he can warm the lady's fire, but the lady cannot warm his fire.
"Oh? You mean that slice?" The young master narrowed his eyes. In the young master's opinion, the doctor's slices, except for those one or two, were just large-sized trash.
If you really think that you understand the Executive's strength just because you have solved one of the Doctor's slices, then you are totally wrong.
"Executive officer, be quiet. Brother Yu Jin is my good friend. If you still want to cooperate with the Wangsheng Hall, you'd better keep your fangs."
Zhongli tapped the wooden table lightly with his hand. The penetrating echo was like a basin of cold water, pouring on the young master's head and calming him down.
“Huh, it’s my fault to dwell on the past.” The young master’s expression changed for a while, and finally, he imitated the people of Liyue and clumsily clasped his fists to Yu Jin.
Wangsheng Hall is one of the local bosses in Liyue, and Young Master learned a lot of information about Liyue through Wangsheng Hall.
What’s more, in the Hall of Rebirth, there is a very special person named Zhongli.
To say that he is special is actually just pure erudition. However, Zhongli's erudition is different from that of a doctor.
When talking to Zhongli, he could always get the information he wanted without noticing. But if he talked to the doctor, he would rather read a book.
"That's right, why are you always thinking about fighting?" Yu Jin nodded with satisfaction. This child is a person who listens to advice and has great potential!
"Tell me, sir, you came to the Hall of Rebirth not just because you are bored, right?" Zhongli nodded and said to the young master.
"This..." The young master looked at the walnuts and embers around him and winked at Zhongli.
"Master, please step aside for a moment." Zhongli saw the young master winking at him, so he turned his head and said to Hu Tao who was standing beside him.
"Ah? Me?" Hu Tao pointed with a shocked look on her face. No way, as the head of the Wangsheng Hall, she wanted to avoid the affairs of the Wangsheng Hall?
"Yes. If the hall master insists on listening, I can also guarantee it to you, sir." Zhongli said as if it was a matter of course.
Hu Tao looked at Zhongli who had a calm expression, then looked at Yu Jin who was gloating over other people's misfortune. She snorted helplessly and then ran out the door.
When did I, the hall master, become like this? Hu Tao thought to herself as she ran.
Oh, so this is what happened after I pushed most of the affairs of the Wangsheng Hall onto Zhongli. That’s fine now.
The young master looked at Yu Jin again and found that Zhongli did not make any move, so he knew that it was impossible to make Yu Jin avoid it.
But he didn't care. He was just an adventurer and couldn't disrupt the overall situation.
"Mr. Zhongli, please look at this." The young man was no longer shy. He took out a yellowed talisman paper and placed it on the table beside him.
"A talisman with no taboos, a very rare item. Moreover, it is still usable." Zhongli picked up the talisman and took a look. Although it was worn out, the immortal power in it was still full, which was definitely enough to meet the immortal.
As expected, the Fatui had the Hundred Unrestricted Talisman in their hands. As the ancestor of all immortals, Zhongli knew clearly the fluctuations of immortal power in the Hundred Unrestricted Talisman.
Some time ago, he felt that the state of the Hundred No Taboos Talisman was abnormal. At that time, he suspected that it was the work of the Fatui, and now he is more certain.
"Sure enough!" The young master's face lit up with joy, his guess was correct.
"Oh? I didn't expect that you, sir, actually knew about the long-lost item, the Hundred Taboos Talisman?" Zhongli was slightly surprised after hearing what the young master said.
It's not very polite to say it out loud, but in Zhongli's impression, the young master is a simple-minded and strong-limbed person. I didn't expect that he actually knew about the "Hundred Unrestricted Talisman".
"Haha, I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Mr. Zhongli. I just know the name and style." The young man scratched his head and said.
Although he showed off his "erudition" in front of his subordinates, he was still at a loss when asked to explain it clearly.
"This is a good thing. There are no taboos, no taboos... It can break through delusion and illusion, and reveal the true appearance of the immortal."
"Keep it. This is something you can use to meet the immortal."
Chapter 245 Prison Visit
2023-10-21
"Hey, is it okay for him to take that thing?" Standing at the gate of Wangsheng Hall, Yu Jin asked casually as he watched the young master walking away.
Zhongli's "breaking delusion and breaking emptiness" is more than just the obsession in his heart. Yu Jin can feel that the power of the "Hundred Taboos" can actually break through certain restrictions.
"Don't worry. Although my reaction is a lot slower than before, I can still keep an eye on him." Zhongli crossed his arms, as if he didn't care about the young master at all.
"Okay, as long as you're happy." Yu Jin didn't care after hearing what Zhong Li said. Since the other person didn't care, he didn't bother.
"I'll leave my incarnation in the hands of Brother Yu Jin."
"Okay, okay. I already have an idea. I'm just waiting for you to die."
Yu Jin waved at Zhongli, hoping that when Zhongli saw his "corpse", he would not beat him.
In fact, Yu Jin is now a little worried that Zhongli will beat him, because based on all the signs just now, the demon that Zhongli mentioned is probably Osel.
But Osel has now become a true sea serpent. When the seal is lifted, it will be difficult for Liyue to find Osel.
Thinking of this, Yu Jin wanted to go visit Osel because Ba Che's business was done but he hadn't told Osel yet.
"Something happened, I have to go!" Yu Jin did whatever he thought of. After saying hello to Zhongli, he ran away.
Looking at Yu Jin's impetuous look, Zhongli couldn't help but shook his head slightly.
“Huh, this guy is hard to figure out.”
