Chapter 14

After dinner, they naturally went to have fun on their own - Xingqiu wanted to take Kawi and Liuhuo back to rest, but Kawi saw that Xingqiu wanted to play with his friends - so he said he would take Liuhuo to walk around Liyue Harbor again - so Xingqiu was pulled away by Hu Tao and the others: The four little ones are so cute.jpg

Wendy invited Kawi quite familiarly - well, our occasionally reliable bard, wanted to give Grandpa Zhongli and the others some room to talk, so she took Kawi and the others away.

On Captain Beidou's Death Star, the crew were drinking happily - except for Wendy, Manye and Liuhuo, who looked underage.

Liuhuo's attitude towards human drinks... how to say it, she only cares whether they taste good - the wine on the Death Star has no appeal to her, so she naturally doesn't care whether she can drink it - but Wendy cares.

"Kavi... I brought you here..."

Kavi had come to study the hull before, and since Xumi didn't need a ship of this tonnage, it was a chance for him to learn something new. He was also very enthusiastic about helping calculate the food inventory and re-planning the storage area: he had become a welcome guest on the ship.

So he could be poured wine, and the crew members took the initiative to say that they could help take care of Liuhuo and let him drink as much as he wanted...

Liuhuo didn't stop him. She didn't even need to take the initiative to take care of Liuhuo, and the puppets next to Mehrak could solve the problem. After

losing the credit wine from the boss of "Angel's Gift", Wendy had to take out her zither and wanted to sing a song for them to pass the time. As a result, Liuhuo frowned after listening to a few notes.

Wendy: "What's wrong? Isn't it nice?"

Liuhuo: "I can't sing."

"..." Wendy played two more notes, "I'll sing it."

Liuhuo nodded hesitantly, but he always felt that the bard didn't seem to be singing, but more like... talking.

'... Forget it, it's not me singing. '

—— Just listen to it as a story.

After a few days of wandering around Liyue, Kawi was picked up by Xingqiu. The main reason was that the development of Aru Village still needed the cooperation of the Xumi people. Kawi was a very professional person with good character, and was recognized by Xingqiu. He was a Xumi person who had good intentions towards the desert (and even happened to come to Liyue!). Wouldn't it be great to be a partner?

Feiyun Chamber of Commerce got excellent design and considerable future profits, and Kawi got design fees and (future) representative regional design. Kawi even wondered if he was dreaming. Such a good thing could fall on him?

—— Dolly, who was persecuted for no reason: How could this be? ! Is it because Lord Yan passed away?

Kawi was busy talking about business, and Liuhuo had no awareness of her cub size at all. She happily began to collect the specialties in Liyue Harbor: mainly glass lilies and colorful flowers.

Agui, who passed by: Those are ornamental flowers, you can't pick them! ! ! !

Agui, who stopped Liuhuo, looked around and didn't see the other party's parents. Why wasn't she a child nearby? Are you kidding? Ah Gui is an apprentice of "Bubu Lu". How could he not know the children in the neighborhood?

So this child, most likely... is lost!

Liuhuo, who was interrupted from giving birth to Liuli Lily:?

Because of some cognitive dislocation and miscommunication, Ah Gui took her to "Bubu Lu" after reporting to the Qianyan Army on duty.

"Bubu Lu" is the most famous medicine shop in Liyue. Ah Gui is a pharmacist and Baizhu's apprentice. This time he went to deliver medicine to an old customer, and a zombie girl, Qiqi, took his place to watch the shop.

Liuhuo sensed Qiqi's presence from a long distance away. This was a bit new to her... How to say it, it was like seeing an organic and inorganic life.

Liuhuo: Subtle...

Qiqi listened to Ah Gui telling her that she picked up a little girl on the road, but she didn't remember this sentence in her mind - she stared at Liuhuo first, and then seemed to realize what she was going to do, and reached out to hold Liuhuo.

Agui: Children holding hands, so cute.jpg

For Liuhuo, Qiqi's behavior is very easy to understand: this little girl who imitates inorganic life is trying to get the power of "life" from her.

She wants to live.

Liuhuo has no objection to this.

So she also held Qiqi's hand and asked her: "Do you want to grow up?"

Qiqi's handshake became more forceful.

After getting the answer, Liuhuo said: "Then..."

"Qiqi? What's wrong?"

It was Bai Shu, the owner of "Bubu Lu", who interrupted Liuhuo.

The white snake "Changsheng" on his neck wanted to say something, but the moment he saw Liuhuo, he tightened his body fiercely - "Changsheng?"

Bai Shu was strangled and choked twice, which also made Changsheng come back to his senses and let go.

Bai Zhu saw that Changsheng not only did not reply, but even shrank back, which made him look a little confused, but he knew Changsheng very well, so the problem must be...

"Hello, little girl, are you Qiqi's friend?"

Liuhuo turned his head and did not answer Bai Zhu's question: "You won't live long like this."

Bai Zhu was stunned for a moment before saying: "Maybe, I'm looking for a way to live longer."

The word "seeking medicine" flashed through Liuhuo's mind - but when he wanted to recall it specifically, it became a blank again: "Want... to live forever?"

This is not a topic that can be discussed with a child who meets for the first time - but Bai Zhu realized that this child might not be... unusual.

It doesn't mean that the other party might be an immortal or something like that... He has also met immortals, but at that time Changsheng was not like this now.

Agui didn't pay attention to the situation on their side. When he saw Bai Zhu coming out, he greeted him casually: "Mr. Bai Shu, have you rested well?... This is the child I met in Feiyupo. I was afraid that she got separated from her family, so I brought her back first."

Bai Zhu smiled: "Is that so... Little friend, do you want to go to the backyard with Qiqi to rest for a while?"

Liuhuo nodded indifferently: Anywhere, anyway, it won't be difficult to solve Qiqi's situation...

Liuhuo who followed could even hear the little snake named Changsheng communicating with Bai Shu in a low voice: "That child... is very strong... no... is it very scary..."

Then Bai Shu couldn't just ignore it - so he was thinking about how to let this child stay in "Bubu Lu" peacefully for a while... at least don't smash his shop.

The result was beyond Bai Shu's expectation. The other party had no intention of causing trouble at all - she just let Qiqi sit on the stool, and then "something" held Qiqi's hand - through a special vision obtained by the contract with Changsheng, Bai Shu could "see" that something... some energy permeated Qiqi's body...

Maybe they should be stopped

... Maybe some experiments should be done first...

Maybe Qiqi...

Bai Shu wanted to stop them, but in the end he only took half a step forward, with his hand in the air, not knowing whether to move forward.

"Bai Shu..." Changsheng also stared at this scene in a daze, "Did we witness a miracle?"

The zombie boy, who had regained his body temperature, slowly raised his hand, shook it, and then looked up at Liuhuo, who had returned to normal: "Thank you."

Liuhuo: "I am very good at knowing when to stop."

——No one at the scene could hear the deep meaning of Liuhuo: Well, after all, if she was like her "mother", she probably wouldn't be alive until now...

Although I still can't remember it, this is a survival instinct.jpg

Liuhuo, who had a full survival instinct, only made the zombie's body have "vitality" again, and did not turn Qiqi into a Fengraomin, let alone be warned by Liuxing.

Well, after all, a certain old father would not take action when he met a Fengraomin - if he really made such a black-and-white judgment, then the first person to be warned by Liuxing would be Xianzhou - this is pure black humor.

Baishu's first thing was to confirm Qiqi's condition. Qiqi still remembered Baishu, so she didn't resist - it's hard to say what Baishu felt when he held Qiqi's hand and felt her body temperature...

but it was definitely not as complicated as when he heard that Mr. Zhongli came to pick her up.

Originally, this matter could never be thrown on the head of this guest official of the "Wangsheng Hall" - but accidents are outrageous.

On the previous night of the dinner, Zhongli warned Kong that the young lady might be more terrifying than he imagined, but her strength had nothing to do with her character, so he asked Kong to thank Liuhuo on his behalf.

Well, thank him for Xiao.

As a result, Kong was running around and missed Liuhuo's schedule. Instead, Zhongli, who was sent by Hu Tao to help at the "Wanmin Hall", was...

Let's go back a little bit. The Qianyan Army, who was reported by Agui, was very concerned about the child's disappearance. They immediately reported it to the higher authorities and began to look for people who knew the truth. Then, during the interview, they asked a passerby who was impressed by Liuhuo's appearance:

"That pretty girl? I have an impression of her. I saw her listening to storytelling with a blonde Xumi man at the "Sanwan Buguogang" before... What? Lost? What a sin... Wait, I remember, she seems to know Xiangling from the "Wanmin Hall". I saw them talking at the door of the "Xinyuexuan" before. Yes, the traveler was there too! I saw it clearly! "

——Finally they found out a name that they were familiar with, so they went to "Wanmin Hall" to ask.

As a result, Xiangling was not there. She went out to play with Hu Tao and the others. The ones who stayed here to help were "Guo Ba" and Zhongli.

Master Mao of "Wanmin Hall" didn't know about Liuhuo's affairs. He was confused when he heard Qianyan Army's question. Instead, Zhongli, who heard the conversation, was a little confused about Liuhuo's "missing": That young lady? Lost?

Seeing that "Wanmin Hall" didn't need his help, he immediately communicated with Qianyan Army——and now, he appeared in "Bubu Lu" to clean up this mess.

Kavi: Immersed in talking about design with the client, I didn't know what happened.

When Liuhuo saw Zhongli coming to pick her up, he also thought about whether this person was too idle to do such a job as connecting people——But when he thought of the little girl named Hu Tao who claimed to be his boss before, he didn't care: Yeah, I understand, the God of Teyvat is down-to-earth.

Qianyanjun also communicated with Liuhuo and confirmed that the "missing" was just a misunderstanding, so they were relieved: Well, after all, Zhongli is also a famous figure in Liyue Port, so there is no need to worry about not finding him.

Seeing Liuhuo pulling Zhongli's sleeve and preparing to leave, Baishu couldn't help but said: "Do you... know how to obtain immortality?"
