Chapter 1002: A rare peace
Hu Tao was very proud and wanted to seize the opportunity to do her job well, while Zhongli also wanted to get off work early and go back to see what that rebellious son was thinking.
We are united.
With the secret help of a guest official, this time the seal maintenance operation can only be said to be quite quick.
On the surface, Zhongli, as a guest official, is just a teacher, but if he wants to use some tricks secretly, no one will notice it.
When the evil demon was alive, he was no match for Zhongli, let alone now.
Even if you are carrying heavy wear and tear and your strength may not be as good as before, you still have to consider what kind of person you are comparing yourself with.
Compared with these evil spirits, they even seem a little cheap. How can they be compared with the Rock King?
…
"Qiuqiu, this hall master wants to have a midnight snack!"
Hu Tao carried the Homa and opened the door of the Hall of Rebirth: "Your token is really useful. Today's work was completed very quickly."
"Is it useful? If it works, I feel relieved."
Gu Sanqiu came out carrying several layers of large steamers in one hand.
"Has anyone else come back?"
Hu Tao glanced at Zhongli subconsciously.
"They are all back. Some of them were assigned to go to Wuwangpo for routine defense deployment. They are the ones who will not be coming back."
Hu Tao nodded to Gu Sanqiu: "We're all back, Qiuqiu!"
"You should at least remember these things. You can't trouble Brother Zhongli for everything."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "Well, serve the food and tell them to bring their own tableware. I don't have any extra ones anyway."
"Tsk , Zhongli is my subordinate. As the hall master, sometimes I need to do everything myself, but knowing how to use people well is also a quality that a hall master should possess."
Hu Tao patted Gu Sanqiu's shoulder in a pretended generous manner.
"Alas, a hands-off boss like you, Qiuqiu, definitely won't understand the truth. If there is a chance, I would be kind enough to teach you a few tricks."
"Okay, okay, you're the one who makes sense. Let's have a midnight snack. After that, go to bed quickly."
Gu Sanqiu put down the steamer, turned around and went in to take out the large pots filled with steaming boiled fish.
"Qiuqiu, where are my noodles!"
Hu Tao let out a cry and hung on Gu Sanqiu's back: "This is my noodles!"
"I know, I know. You are indispensable."
Gu Sanqiu carried Hutao on his back and walked around twice. Since the amount was enough, he didn't care how others ate.
Anyway, with dad there, there is absolutely no way there will be any noise.
"Here's yours. Boiled fish with shrimp dumplings. The bowl next to it is noodles. If you want to eat them together, I'll prepare a bigger bowl for you."
Gu Sanqiu held up a wooden tray and said, "The other small plate contains fried dumplings, and the Fire Butterfly Plum Blossom Buns made especially for you. There's also juice in there."
"Qiuqiu, you are the best!"
Hu Tao got off Gu Sanqiu's back with a smile: "Do you want me to feed you some myself?"
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "No, I'm not that hungry. If it's hot, remember to blow it on it so you don't burn yourself."
"I am a master of fire, how could I be frightened by such a small temperature?"
Gu Sanqiu wiped his hands with a handkerchief: "These are two different things, be obedient."
"cut."
Hu Tao suddenly moved closer to Gu Sanqiu: "Qiuqiu, are you really not hungry?"
"Well, when I was out at sea looking for materials, I encountered a few lost sea monsters. They tasted average."
Hu Tao's expression froze, then she reached out and grabbed Gu Sanqiu's waist and twisted it.
"I was wrong just now. I didn't feed you personally, but with my mouth~"
"Qiuqiu, are you really not hungry?"
Gu Sanqiu was silent for a while: "Have you seen anything remarkable recently?"
Do I have to go to the General Affairs Department in person and ask them to strictly check the goods imported from Inazuma?
How can a tough guy like me, who has the strength of an ancient, care about these things? ?
Gu Sanqiu had a wooden face: "No need, Master, it is wrong for me to remain calm while sitting on your lap. My heart is in the Pure Land of the West."
Hu Tao's expression changed instantly: "Good for you, you really have a girl you like out there. Which country is the West, Xumi?"
Gu Sanqiu: ...
"My heart is heading westwards is just a general way of saying it, which probably means I want to become a monk ."
Hu Tao grabbed Gu Sanqiu's face and said, "Tell me quickly, is there a girl you like in that empty door?"
Gu Sanqiu sighed: "That's just a general term, don't make a fuss."
Walnut snorted twice: "So what are you going to do now?"
"I'm delivering a package. To be more precise, I should say I'm delivering takeout. I accidentally made too much, so I'm sending it to other people to try."
Walnut was stunned: "You're not staying here?"
Gu Sanqiu looked at Hu Tao strangely: "How is that possible? I don't sleep, right?"
"Didn't you say you were going to deliver food?"
"Oh, you're talking about this. It's actually quite simple to do."
Gu Sanqiu weighed the food box in his hand that had been carefully strengthened with runes and Mora.
"We will deliver with all our strength and accomplish our mission."
It’s just a takeaway delivery. You just need to use the golden light of the sun to search for the target and then locate it.
The rest is up to miracles.
Great strength works miracles.
Gu Sanqiu threw the food box into the air, and then repeated the action several times in succession. The trajectories of the food boxes being thrown out were like fireworks.
However, due to its speed advantage, it disappears much faster than ordinary fireworks.
Hu Tao looked up at the sky and said, "Qiu Qiu, aren't you afraid of hitting someone if you throw it like this?"
"Don't worry, this amount of force can't even knock out the Rock Shield thugs, let alone my friends."
Gu Sanqiu folded his arms and said, "It would be better to say that if this thing can cause them trouble, it would be fun the next time we meet."
Gu Sanqiu felt that it would be really unfair to his good mood if he didn't laugh at them to the point of getting angry and wanting to attack him.
"Hurry up and eat your midnight snack. If you don't eat it now, the noodles will become clumpy and won't taste good."
Hu Tao put down the hand that was pinching the other person's cheek, then held Gu Sanqiu's face with both hands and looked up herself.
"You really aren't going out?"
Gu Sanqiu was confused: "Where am I going out? Is there any seal that has not been solved?"
This shouldn't be the case. With his dad by his side, and he didn't sense Xiao bursting out with strength to kill the enemies, so tonight should be calm.
"You really aren't going out?"
Gu Sanqiu said helplessly: "I have packed up all my belongings, where else do you want me to go? Could it be that Master Hu thinks I am too much of an eyesore here and wants to drive me away?"
"Tsk, bad Qiuqiu doesn't know the good hall master's heart."
Hu Tao pulled Gu Sanqiu to sit down and said, "You suddenly gave me a token, which made me think you were going to marry into another family and never come back. You left that token for me as a reminder."
Gu Sanqiu:?
He really wanted to go to the General Affairs Department to inquire about the recent commodity circulation situation.
"Don't give me that. Who has the guts to let me marry into your family right now? You're tired of living like this, aren't you?"
Those who are really brave enough to make trouble know that Liyue is extremely troubled. It is hard to say about the Supreme Rock Dragon whose situation is unclear, but a certain deceased demon god is happily wandering in the mortal world all day long.
It's okay if it's just a joke, but if you're really serious, then you might have to wait for a certain demon to come over and talk to you in person.
Walnut didn't believe it: "Really?"
Gu Sanqiu put his hand on his chest, and after thinking for a while, he honestly moved his hand to his heart.
"Really, Liyue people don't lie to Liyue people."
"Oh well--"
Hu Tao stretched out the note, then released his right hand and stretched it towards Gu Sanqiu.
"Hook."
Gu Sanqiu chose his words carefully: "I am an adult."
"Um?"
Gu Sanqiu reached out decisively: "I didn't say anything."
"Humph, I don't think you dare to lie to this hall master."
Hu Tao sat upright, staring at Gu Sanqiu very seriously, almost disturbing the latter.
"Anything else?"
"No, no more."
Hu Tao smiled sweetly, jumped up and sat on Gu Sanqiu's lap, wrapping her arms around Gu Sanqiu's neck.
"Qiuqiu, feed me a midnight snack!"
Gu Sanqiu looked disgusted: "You are an adult now, sit over there and I will feed you."
"Okay~"
Kurumi sat back obediently, then moved her chair closer and pointed at the boiled fish fillets.
"Open your mouth."
"ah--"
Gu Sanqiu put down his chopsticks, picked up a small spoon and scraped away the soup from the corner of Hu Tao's mouth.
"What if other people see this childish hall master?"
"You talk as if they've never met before. Qiuqiu, you weren't that busy when you were a kid, and you often took me out to play."
Hu Tao looked at the steamed bun next to him and said, "Is that specially made for me?"
Gu Sanqiu picked up the dumpling and glanced at it: "Well, I made one for you because I had some leftovers. I guess it will taste just average."
Hu Tao made a sound, but she had automatically translated Gu Sanqiu's words in her mind.
That steamed bun was only included in her midnight snack.
