Chapter 226 May Tomorrow Be as Bright as Gold
Yan Shang Teahouse
It is a good place to taste tea in Liyue Harbor.
It is also a place where Tianshu, one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, often stays.
For example, in the corner.
The current Tianshu star Tianshu is sitting there tasting tea.
After Ling Xuan and others came over, his eyes were fixed on Zhongli in the crowd.
Zhongli, the guest official of the Hall of Rebirth, is also famous in the whole Liyue.
It is said that he knows astronomy and geography, knows etiquette, knows rules, and can perform the rituals of heaven and earth.
And according to his intelligence department, the first to perform the ceremony of sending immortals was this guest official Zhongli.
Even as the Seven Stars of Liyue, they were in a mess for a while when the emperor suddenly passed away.
But this guest official was able to perform the ceremony of sending immortals in an orderly manner, without being affected by the outside world at all. This stability is worthy of respect!
It's a pity that the Hall of Rebirth is not under his control, otherwise Zhongli would have to be poached.
"That old man seems to have been watching us."
Bronya whispered as she sat down.
"I guess you haven't seen so many beautiful girls in a short time." Ling Xuan joked.
"As a guest of the master, you said something honest."
Liuyun Jiefeng gently lifted the red frame on his nose and felt that Ling Xuan was very sensible.
"I didn't say you at all, auntie."
"Auntie?"
Liuyun Jiefeng was stunned, looking at Kiana who was complaining about her in disbelief, and the corners of her mouth twitched wildly.
She had heard of the Great Fairy Bird and that woman, but it was the first time she was called auntie.
Just a few words made her angry.
This Kiana is more annoying than that flying pet!
"What? I'm a friend of your master's friend, lelele~"
Looking at the sea of fire behind her, Kiana's neck shrank.
She quickly hid behind Ling Xuan and stuck out her tongue at Liuyun.
Liuyun: "..."
She was able to compete with the Demon God of Dust, Guizhong, so she couldn't be called auntie!
"Hey, Liuyun, this young friend didn't mean that."
Zhongli comforted.
Liuyun gave Kiana a vicious look.
If the Emperor wasn't here, she would have let this little brat see what the immortals' methods were.
She could only snort coldly and sit down again.
But she had already remembered Kiana in her heart.
Liyue version of Eula.
Ling Xuan smiled.
Using the power of the Herrscher of Ice, Ling Xuan lowered the temperature of the tea in his hand and handed it to Xiao Qiong.
"Come on, drink some tea to relieve the greasiness."
"Thank you, brother."
Xiao Qiong happily took it.
It happened that she had just finished eating tiger fish, and her mouth was a little greasy.
"Who is the real lord commemorated this year?"
Ling Xuan asked Zhongli while watching Xiao Qiong drinking tea.
"This year..."
Zhongli silently put down the teacup in his hand, his expression slightly reminiscing: "It's Master Yixiao Daotian."
Qiana: "Master Yixiao Daotian? It sounds a bit domineering!"
Zhongli chuckled and said: "Every Lantern Festival is a festival to commemorate heroes. This year's hero is "Master Yixiao Daotian", a master who sacrificed to protect mankind during the Demon God War."
"During the Lantern Festival, people pray for peace and drive away bad luck, hoping that the lights will pass on wisdom and heroes will return from the sea."
Zhongli took a sip of tea and looked far away, as if reaching the horizon.
"The people of Liyue believe that the meaning of the lantern is [May the torch be passed on, and virtues will not be extinguished]. They must believe that the spirit of the hero will be passed on forever like the torch in the lantern, while illuminating the way forward for the people, and giving the people in the dark the warmest light with dazzling virtues. "
"..."
"What a beautiful meaning, don't you think, my good Eden? "
Eden said nothing, looking at the port.
The huge deer-shaped night lantern was reflected in her golden eyes.
She spoke slowly: "May civilization continue like a fire, and may this world be as glorious as gold."
Hmm?
Zhongli paused with the cup in his hand, and looked at the woman named 'Eden' with a little surprise.
Liu Yun also looked at Eden in a daze.
This woman is something!
After coming back to his senses, Zhongli drank the tea in the cup and praised: "Miss Eden is worthy of being a world-famous master. Zhongli admires her very much."
"Is it right? My Eden is the best."
Aili hugged Eden's arm and smiled.
Whoever praises Eden is a good person.
Eden smiled slightly and said to Zhongli: "Sir, you are too kind. ”
Dignified and steady temperament, polite attitude.
It is hard to dislike such a woman.
The others drank tea silently.
The topic was too high-level, and they could not get involved.
Uncle Tian, who was sitting in the corner listening to the conversation, smiled knowingly.
"Glorious as gold..."
He whispered softly, drank the tea in the cup, and left the Yanshang Tea House alone.
"..."
"The spy left."
Ling Xuan spoke the moment Uncle Tian went downstairs.
"After all, after experiencing the Osel incident, the Liyue Seven Stars are still in a sensitive period." Zhongli responded.
It is obvious that Zhongli knows what Ling Xuan is talking about.
"How can the emperor's guests doubt? After all, they are mortals."
Liu Yun said calmly.
Zhongli smiled but said nothing.
He understood Liu Yun's temper and had long been accustomed to it.
After all, he is cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
"What are you talking about?"
Kiana looked at the two people of the Riddler with a blank face.
"Stupid Kiana, I think you don't want to be the Herrscher of the Sky anymore, just be a stupid Herrscher."
Bronya's daily insults.
"Hey, just say it directly if you have something to say, don't change your way of saying I'm stupid!" Kiana shouted in dissatisfaction.
A character that can't be saved even by Honkai.
"From the moment we entered Liyue Port, we were targeted."
Ling Xuan began to explain to Kiana.
"Huh? Is that so? Why didn't I feel it?"
Bronya rolled her eyes at her: "That's why I called you stupid."
Not wanting to pay attention to Bronya, Kiana looked at Mei: "Mei, is it true?"
"Hmm..."
Although she didn't want to hit Kiana, Mei still nodded reluctantly in front of the truth.
"Hmm"
Mei's admission completely broke Kiana's defense.
"Buzz——"
Just then
The dark space channel behind Zhongli suddenly opened.
"Are you here?"
Everyone stood up and looked at the space passage behind them.
A figure with golden hair and a fairy-like appearance walked out barefoot.
"Long time no see, everyone."
She smiled happily as if she had seen someone familiar.
"It's Mavis, you're late." Ling Xuan said with a smile.
"It's OK as long as you're not the last one."
Mavis chuckled and then shouted behind her: "You two too, come out quickly."
At Mavis's call.
A black-haired teenager and a white-haired old man walked out shyly.
Both were wearing expensive suits.
One black and one white, just matching their hair colors.
"Jerf, this is Ling Xuan, and he's Zhongli."
The golden fairy girl took the boy's arm affectionately, came to Ling Xuan and Zhongli, and introduced them.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Jellal." Ling Xuan smiled and extended his hand.
"..."
Looking at the hand extended, Jellal hesitated.
"Why are you still standing there? Come and shake hands."
Mavis saw Jellal standing there stupidly, and slapped him on the back.
Jelal: "..."
"Don't be afraid, your curse has no effect on me."
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Ling Xuan took the initiative to shake Jellal's hand.
That was the fact, his death hunt was not passively launched.
This made Jellal breathe a sigh of relief.
If someone died today because of him, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
"And Mr. Zhongli." Mavis said.
In response, Jellal said hello obediently.
Looking at the obedient Jellal.
Ougast: "..."
Mom, so scary!
Who would have thought that the legendary black magician Jellal was actually henpecked.
"Come, Ougast, come over and bow and say hello."
Mavis waved to Ougast, who had been standing there stupidly.
"Um, this one doesn't need it."
"Yes, yes, Miss Mavis, this old man doesn't need it."
Kiana and others said hurriedly.
Letting the old man bow to them will shorten their lifespan!
Mavis looked confused: "What are you talking about? He is my son."
"..."
At this moment, the world was quiet.
