Chapter 179 Carefree Nashida

"Xianjun, why didn't Keqing come with you?" Gan Yu asked Liusu and Ying who were walking towards them.

Liusu replied: "Keqing should have gone with Ningguang and the others to deal with matters related to the competition."

Gan Yu looked at the Yae Shenzi who was still in a coma and asked, "That's it, but the Shenzi hasn't woken up yet. Is it really okay?"

"It's okay, just rest for a while and you'll be fine. Shenzi is not as weak as before." Kage replied expressionlessly.

Gan Yu: "."

After listening to Ying's words, Gan Yu looked at the other party with a troubled face, opened his mouth to say something, but in the end it turned into a helpless sigh.

Paimon and Ying came over and asked, "Lisu, we are here. Is the Son of God awake?"

"No."

Paimon said, "Do you need our help?"

Liusu shook her head and replied: "No, Ying said she would just rest for a while."

"Okay, by the way, where is Keqing? We just saw her and Ningguang leave, when will they come back."

As soon as Paimon finished asking, Keqing came over and asked, "Are you looking for me?"

Paimon looked at Ke Qing's confused expression and asked curiously: "Huh? Why do you look worried?"

Keqing: "."

"I encountered a difficult matter." Keqing said after being silent for a while.

Liusu asked, "What's the troublesome thing? Let's talk about it."

Keqing replied: "Master, it's like this. I gave my vote to Yan Xiao in this competition."

"That's it?" Liusu glanced at her and said.

Keqing scratched her head and felt embarrassed to face Liusu's gaze: "."

Paimon listened to Ke Qing's words and analyzed: "Is Ke Qing worried about not being able to vote for Xiang Ling?"

"No, as a judge, you should be fair. This vote is a decision I made after careful consideration. I have a clear conscience." Ke Qing shook her head and said: "Xiang Ling is my friend. I should follow her both emotionally and rationally. Confess this."

"But you also know that my thoughts only represent my personal position after all. As a contestant, Xiangling may not be able to understand me. I'm not good at dealing with people with that kind of personality... Oh, it's really hard to speak."

After hearing Keqing's words, Paimeng said with relief: "I think it doesn't matter. Don't worry about the rhetoric. Xiangling won't mind it at first sight. Besides, she won in the end!"

"Lisu, do you think what I said is right?"

Liusu: "Ah, yes, yes."

Paimon: "."

"By the way, where are Nasida and Little Keli? Why didn't you see them? I just forgot to ask." Paimon changed the subject.

Liusu pretended to have a headache and replied: "She must have gone to play somewhere in Liyue. With her ability, she can't go anywhere."

Nasida seems to be getting worse and worse. Now she only knows how to play besides learning the knowledge she teaches. Now she has never heard anything about Xumi from her mouth.

Nasida now has a smile on her face every day. Except sometimes when she does something that gives Liusu a headache and shows a pitiful expression for a moment after giving her a roasted chestnut, the rest of the time she acts like a silly roe deer. , Man Liyue ran around, especially after Keli came, she ran even more happily.

"Hehe, Nacida is completely different from when we first met her. Now she is just like little Keli, happy every day." Paimon said with a smile.

Liusu sighed and replied: "She is happy. I have a headache. I have to keep an eye on whether she will cause a big explosion with Keli from time to time."

boom!

Just as Liusu finished speaking, an earth-shattering explosion came from the direction of Guyun Pavilion. Looking at the red and green mushroom clouds on the horizon representing the energy of grass and fire elements, Paimon, who heard the sound, also fell into deep thought.

"Look, it's happened again, but now she at least knows how to compress the explosion range so that it won't spread to other places."

"It turns out that the thunder we heard in Liyue these past few days was actually caused by Nasida and Xiao Keli." Paimon exclaimed.

After hearing what Paimon said, Liusu glanced at her and said, "Otherwise, what else can the two of them do together?"

After listening to Liusu's words, Paimon agreed with deep understanding: "That's right. The destructive power of Keli and Nasida together is really amazing."

"You have to be lucky that they don't have a partner who uses thunder elements, otherwise the destructive power would be even more shocking."

Paimon asked in confusion: "But why do Nasida and Xiao Keli like fried fish so much? Can they finish eating so many fried fish?"

Liusu replied: "You don't understand this feeling. They just like the process of frying fish. It doesn't matter whether there are fish behind it. There are still a few normal fish under this kind of explosion, so they finish frying the fish." After that, I’ll catch a few in the shallow water.”

Paimon: "."

"Everyone is here." Xiang Ling, who had been dealt with at this time, came over and greeted everyone.

Paimon waved his hand and said, "Xiang Ling."

Ke Qing hesitated and said, "Xiang Ling, there is something I want to tell you."

Boom!

"Ouch!" Keqing covered the place where she was knocked and looked at Liusu with a puzzled look on her face. She didn't understand why Liusu wanted to do it.

Liusu said calmly: "Why are you hesitating? Just say what you want to say. How I told you before."

"I know, but you can't hit me like you hit Nasida." Keqing complained softly.

Liusu glanced at her and replied: "You are not as old as Nasida."

Keqing: "."

"Keqing, what's the matter?" Xiangling asked in confusion.

Keqing said, "My grandfather said that if you compete with food, you must follow your heart. That is to say, when you have a dispute or competition over food, you should vote for the party you care about more. This matter should be in accordance with your heart and not be influenced by external forces."

"Of course, this is just my grandfather's personal opinion. But I do think what he said makes sense..."

Liusu looked at Keqing who started again and reminded her, "Speak to the point."

"Okay, okay, I voted for Yan Xiao's Xian Tiao Qiang." Keqing covered her face and didn't dare to look at Xiangling.

"Keqing voted for the golden shrimp ball, right?" Paimeng corrected.

"Yes, what's wrong! I just like the golden shrimp ball, isn't it okay!" Keqing answered loudly.

Paimeng waved his hand and said, "Don't dare."

"Keqing." Ganyu pulled the excited Keqing and reminded her in a low voice.

Xiangling smiled and replied, "You looked so serious, I thought something was wrong! It's okay, I don't mind at all."

"Huh?" Keqing looked at Xiangling in confusion.

Xiangling explained, "Keqing just voted for the party she chose, there's nothing wrong with that, that's how it should be, otherwise wouldn't the game be unfair?"

"Well, you specifically told me this because you're worried that you're not being nice enough as a friend?"

"Ahem, why. That's right!" Keqing was about to say something, but when she saw Liusu clenching her fists next to her, she quickly changed the subject.

"So, don't worry about it. I appreciate Keqing's seriousness, because for me now, it's meaningless without insisting on my opinion."

"The pursuit of comfort is what novices do, and I am not a novice anymore. From now on, the dishes I have to make and the roads I have to take will be more challenging than now. I really need a friend like you."

Liu Su echoed: "Xiangling is right. The pursuit of comfort is what novices do. You are not a novice anymore, so you can understand what I mean, right?"

"I, I understand." Keqing lowered her head and replied. After listening to Liu Su's words, she felt that her life would probably be uneasy in the future.

"It's good that you understand. You just think too much." Liu Su rubbed Keqing's head and comforted her.

"Liu Su is right, Keqing, you are too responsible. Sometimes you really don't need to care so much about responsibility. You are the Seven Stars and you are yourself. When you are with your friends, you don't need to think so carefully."

"You know Miss Ningguang is like this, right? Sister Beidou told me several times that she and Ningguang are very familiar with each other. They even gamble on chess on the boat."

"Miss Ningguang is very daring and doesn't put on airs! You should learn from her and relax when you need to."

After listening to Xiangling's words, Liu Su couldn't help but complain: "She is also very daring. She directly resigned from the position of the Seven Stars and traveled with Ganyu for more than a month. She came back a few days before the Moon Festival."

"Really?" Xiangling looked at Keqing in surprise.

"I"

Paimeng explained: "Hehe, I know that too. Keqing just doesn't know how to get along with friends. She doesn't have many friends, only Ganyu and us, so it's inevitable that she will think too much."

Keqing: "."

Keqing felt that everyone's eyes were cast on her, and she quickly changed the subject and said: "By the way, we can't stand here stupidly, we still have to go and see the situation of the Kitchen God statue!"

Paimeng also echoed: "I almost forgot about that, let's go and see it!"

Ying: "."

You are good at changing the subject. I was planning to eat melons, but it was gone?

So Ying held the Eightfold God Child and followed everyone to Yujingtai to check the so-called Kitchen God statue. Because she didn't know where she should go, she just followed the crowd.

When he arrived in front of the boulder, Paimeng looked at it with a puzzled look and asked, "Why is it still the same? There is no change at all?"

Xiangling also said with a disappointed look, "How could this happen? The competition was so intense."

"Could it be that the competition failed to awaken the statue of the God of the Kitchen?"

"Is the statue of the God of the Kitchen you are talking about something in this stone? Do you want me to split it open and see?" Ying suggested.

"No, no need." Paimeng quickly refused.

"Oh."

Keqing sighed and said, "It seems that we are still not destined to be together."

"Don't worry, there is still a lot of time." Ying comforted.

"Yes, it's already taken a long time, so it doesn't matter if we wait a little longer." Paimon agreed, "Right, Xiangling?"

Xiangling nodded and said, "Yes, we will accompany you. Speaking of which, Keqing, I have good news to tell you. The recipe you told me about before has been finalized!"

"The master came before the game and fixed the words on the recipe for me. I can cook this dish now."

"I'll find a place to cook it for you right away. Wait for me! Can the traveler come too?"

Paimon crossed his arms and looked at Xiangling with a proud expression and said, "Hmm? Xiangling, this guy, just finished the game not long ago, is he going to challenge us now?"

Ying also looked up at Xiangling with her hands on her waist and said, "Hmm, Xiangling, see the crushing from the God of Cooking. My big pot is already thirsty!"

Xiangling looked at the common expression of the two and waved her hand and said, "No, why would I challenge you? Don't you like collecting recipes? I see that you will need this dish when you travel around, so I share it with you."

After hearing Xiang Ling's words, Paimon scratched his head and said, "So that's it, we thought too badly of others."

Ying hurriedly dismissed the blame and said, "It's you who thinks so badly of others. I'm just agreeing with you. It has nothing to do with me."

"Ying, how could this be possible!" Paimeng said angrily: "Then, Xiangling is really a great chef!"

"Huh? Little Paimon, now you know how to flatter!"

Ying echoed expressionlessly: "That's right, when it comes to eating, Paimon's attitude changes very quickly."

Paimon turned to look at Ying and shouted angrily, "Hey!"

"Pfft" Keqing was also amused by Ying and Paimon's behavior.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her again, Keqing quickly put away her smile and said to Paimon: "Ahem. Look at what I'm doing. I'm going to cook. Go quickly."

"Because you are good-looking." Gan Yu replied with a smile as he watched Paimon and Ying leave.

Keqing scratched her head in embarrassment and said, "Gan Yu, don't say that."

After listening to Ke Qing's words, Gan Yu replied with a serious face: "I'm not wrong. What are you sorry for? Didn't you say this to me before?"

Keqing: "."

Well, Gan Yu, who was afraid of society in the past, is now making fun of himself. All this must be Zhenjun Liuyun's fault.

Ying suddenly said: "Son of God, get up when you wake up. I just noticed it."

Yae Shenzi: "."

Seeing that the Eightfold Divine Son had not moved yet, Shadow directly pushed the Eightfold Divine Son that was attached to him away.

Seeing Ying push him away so directly, Yae Shenzi hurriedly stabilized his body and said with an aggrieved face: "Oh, Ying, why are you so cruel and pushed me away like this? I was knocked out after eating the food you cooked before. It used to be, but now I don’t pay attention to others anymore, wuwuwu, I’m so pitiful~”

"Son of God, please be normal." Ying rubbed his sore head and sighed.

"Am I still normal? I have done so much for you, and you treat me like this. My heart is broken into pieces."

film:"."

Gan Yu: "."

Gan Yu looked at the interaction between Yae Shenzi and Ying with a tangled face. She always felt that the relationship between them was not normal, but she was a dependent of God and her, so it was normal to think so?

"Keqing, we're done. This dish looks like molasses, but it smells very fragrant. We've made many portions." After a while, Ying and Paimon came over with Xiangling.

"So fast?" Gan Yu asked doubtfully.

How long has it been before the dishes are finished, and many portions have been made?

Keqing nodded and said, "Oh, thank you."

"Come on, take one portion each, and taste it while it's hot." Paimon said, while Ying and Xiang Ling stood behind holding plates and distributing the food.

"Then I won't be polite." After Keqing finished speaking, she took a bite of the steamed bun she picked up.

Keqing: ".?!"

Paimon was startled by Ke Qing's sudden expression and asked quickly: "What's wrong? Why is it like this? Isn't our cooking delicious?"

"It's delicious." Yae Shenzi replied while eating the steamed buns.

Ying echoed: "I also think it tastes good. It would be even better if there is bubble milk tea."

After saying that, Ying cast his gaze to Liusu next to him.

tassel:"."

Ying took the milk tea handed over by Liusu, took a sip happily, and thanked him with a satisfied look on his face: "Thank you."

"Wow, pearl milk tea, I want it too, I want it too!" Paimon said quickly.

"No, it's delicious, and it's just the way I remember it." Keqing replied in silence.

"It's very delicious, and... incredible, I feel like... I'm back in time with my grandfather."

"Really! It's great!" Xiang Ling said with excitement: "I didn't have time to say it just now, but actually, when the master finished the recipe for me, I discovered that I have been able to cook this dish before. "

Paimeng took a sip of milk tea and asked doubtfully: "You know how to make it before, does that mean you can make it without a recipe?"

"Yeah. Dad taught me how to make this dish." Xiang Ling replied.

"But didn't Keqing read this dish from her grandfather's notes?"

Keqing held the milk tea and explained: "About this dish... I think my grandfather is not the original author of the recipe."

"My grandfather was a famous land tycoon in Liyue and also a scholar. He loved collecting ancient books and had a good understanding of many lost traditional cultures of Liyue."

"When I was a child, I often accompanied my grandfather to study in the study. I read many ancient books and discussed with him whether the Immortal Lord was a real person and how credible these ancient books were..."

"But doesn't the Immortal Lord really exist?" Paimon scratched his head and said.

"Yes, I was still young at that time and could not access the Liyue Skynet, so I was very curious. My grandfather told me at that time that although he had never seen the appearance of the Immortal Lord, the Immortal Lord was as real as the Rock King Emperor. of."

"While he was speaking, he also pointed to the yellow earrings on his ears, saying that these were the most precious treasures blessed by Emperor Yan Wang to Liyue, and that the Immortal Lord's handwriting was in them."

"I was very curious at that time, because except for children, everyone on the street wore a yellow earring. The look of admiration they showed when they looked north was unforgettable because I couldn't see it at that time. What’s in the north?”

"It should be that tree in the north, right?" Paimon said.

Keqing murmured, "Yes, when I was twelve years old, I received my own Skynet and saw the golden ancient tree. It was like the Rock King standing in the north to protect Liyue. That feeling made me feel at ease."

"It was funny to me at that time. I foolishly ran there and wanted to see the tree up close. As a result, when I got there, I found that there was nothing." Keqing said this and shook her head helplessly.

"Hehe, that tree is not in the world of Teyvat." Paimon replied with a blink of his eyes.
