Chapter 205: This Hall Master Recognizes You
The world of Genshin Impact.
"Tsk tsk, poor Osel, not only will he be hit by Big Ivan, but he will also lose a part of his soul."
The demon god Xia Yu leaned against the Fulong tree, feeling somewhat gloating. When he thought of Osel's angry look, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
According to the Soul Demon's memory, he actually knew Osel thousands of years ago, but the two were enemies at that time.
In other words, during the Demon War, every demon except oneself was an enemy, and no demon could stay out of it. The Demon of Salt was the most typical example.
He was considered the strongest demon at that time, and had many frictions with Osel. The two were supposed to have a showdown sooner or later, but who would have thought that both of them would be sealed by Morax in the end.
Now that he has escaped from the seal, although Osel will also escape briefly once more, he will soon be sealed back again. By then, he will definitely have to laugh at Osel before he is sealed back.
"Happiness is built on the suffering of others, especially when that other person is a former enemy. It really makes people feel so high."
Xia Yu stood up from the Fulong tree, stretched and muttered.
He came here to check out the seal site of King Ruota and take some photos. At this time, there was no crack in the seal of King Ruota.
After absorbing the remaining authority of the Salt God, he went to prepare the equipment for the Immortal Sending Ceremony with Zhongli and the others. During the process, he also met the Coconut Sheep King Xiaomei. Compared with the model in the game, it was indeed more amazing to see the real person with one's own eyes.
After that, because all the things needed for the Immortal Delivery Ceremony were ready, and the Immortals in Jueyunjian and the Seven Stars of Liyue were confronting each other, they separated.
Because Kong didn't want to stand idly by, he chose the same action as in the plot. Zhongli also left alone on the pretext that there was trouble in the Rebirth Hall. He came to the Fulong Tree alone, preparing to scout out a location for the subsequent side plot "Bandit Stone".
It's not that he has to participate in the plot , it's mainly because he is bored and has to find something to do.
As a demon god, his strength has almost reached the pinnacle of this world, so he does not need to urgently improve his strength, and there is no system to assign tasks to give him the motivation to move forward, so he is really free now.
Recently he has been considering whether he should follow Zhongli's example and go to Wangsheng Hall to be a guest official with nothing to do.
"I don't know if Old Zhong can understand the immortal cultivation method. I have thoughtfully translated it into the language of this world. If he still can't understand it, it would be embarrassing."
As Xia Yu flew towards Liyue Harbor, he was thinking about Zhongli in his mind.
He gave the immortal cultivation method to Zhongli when Kong and Paimon went to visit Ningguang. Zhongli showed a rare interest in this completely new cultivation system.
Correspondingly, Zhongli will also teach him relevant knowledge about forging, sealing, and the use of power. Although Zhongli is called the God of War, he knows more than just fighting. After all, he has not lived in vain for more than 6,000 years.
Although he is also a demon god, he certainly doesn't know as much as Zhongli, so he taught Zhongli how to cultivate immortality, and Zhongli taught him other knowledge, which can be regarded as sharing their knowledge with each other.
I just don't know how the other party has cultivated, so Xia Yu decided to go over and take a look now.
A moment later, Liyue Harbor was already in sight. Seeing this, Xia Yu first cast a universal breath-concealing spell on himself to hide his body so as not to cause a commotion.
As the only funeral business in Liyue, Wangsheng Hall is much larger than in the game and is located near Liyue Harbor.
So with a quick look, you can find the location of the Hall of Rebirth.
Although Xia Yu could come here directly through the portal, if he had to use the portal for everything, he would miss a lot of the scenery along the way.
He was quite free anyway, so he didn't mind spending some time on the journey.
Snap~
Xia Yu landed lightly on the ground and walked towards the Hall of Rebirth while slowly canceling his breath-concealing technique. When he reached the door, the waiter at the door also noticed him.
"Mr. Xia Yu, welcome to the Wangsheng Hall again, but it is not convenient to receive new guests at the moment." The ferryman, whose real name is not worth mentioning, looked at Xia Yu and said.
Xia Yu had been to the Hall of Rebirth once with Zhongli last time, so the waiter at the door also remembered him.
"It's okay." Xia Yu waved his hand, "I'm just here to look for Zhongli. He should still be in the hall now."
Hearing this, the ferryman nodded and said, "Mr. Zhongli is indeed still in the hall. Do you need me to help pass on a message?"
"No need for that. I'll just go in and find him."
Thinking that Xia Yu was acquainted with Zhongli, the ferryman did not try to stop him. He nodded and made way.
Xia Yu walked in without any hesitation. Anyway, he had memorized the layout of the place when he came here last time, so he would not get lost even with his eyes closed.
However, he had just stepped into the Hall of Rebirth when a sneaky figure discovered him. Seeing that he was alone, the figure followed him cautiously.
After walking for about a while, the figure saw that Xia Yu hadn't noticed him yet, so he immediately walked carefully and lightly behind Xia Yu, then made his hands into claws and was about to roar.
But the next moment, Xia Yu suddenly turned around with a grimace.
“Ouch!!!”
"ah--!"
The figure who wanted to scare Xia Yu was suddenly frightened by Xia Yu and jumped up on the spot in shock.
"Hahahahaha, you still want to scare me."
Seeing the frightened look on the girl in front of him, Xia Yu laughed without hesitation, then while laughing, he shrank his body and said deliberately: "Woo woo woo, so scary, I will never scare people again."
The frightened girl patted her chest. Seeing that Xia Yu not only scared her but also teased her, the girl immediately retorted angrily.
"I didn't say that! Also, how did you find me? I was so careful just now."
"Hey, it's a secret."
"Well...if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me."
After mumbling something in anger, the girl immediately revealed a quirky smile on her face, and said with a smile: "Why are you here at the Wangsheng Hall again? Have you changed your mind? Do you want to apply for the buy one tablet get one free service offered by our Wangsheng Hall? Or do you want to apply for the half-price service for the second coffin?"
Girl...you are in the funeral business, not selling milk tea. What's the point of buying one tombstone and getting one free?
Looking at the smile of the girl in front of him, Xia Yu couldn't help but complain in his heart. Ever since he and Zhongli met the head of the Wangsheng Hall, whose surname was Hu Tao, in the Wangsheng Hall last time, the other party had remembered him.
He was also impressed by this hall master, not only because he was a character in the game, but also because when they first met, he actually patted Zhongli on the shoulder and praised Zhongli for finally learning how to attract customers.
After praising him, the Walnut Hall Master took him aside and recommended him a funeral gift package service, which included the body collection service for those who died in the wild, the suturing service for those who were dismembered, the posthumous makeup service, and the burial service in a Feng Shui treasured land, etc.
He was so upset after hearing this. Even though he had known that Hu Tao was like this, he still couldn't stand it.
Besides, he is a demon god . If he really died, just because of his residual power after death, it would be impossible for ordinary people to get close to him, let alone arrange funeral services for him.
Moreover, the demon god is almost immortal, so who knows who will be the one to be killed in a hundred years.
"No thanks, Master Hu Tao. I think I can still live for a while."
Looking at Hu Tao's expectant smile, Xia Yu rejected her ruthlessly.
"Hey, don't say that ." Kurumi put her hands on her hips. She was a young girl, but she acted like an adult. "Everyone will die one day. You should prepare for the rainy day, don't you understand?"
I'm really sorry, girl, I'm not actually a human.
However, these words just turned around in his mind, and Xia Yu shook his head honestly: "I don't understand."
"Humph, I won't bother with you." Hu Tao raised his head and snorted softly, "Since you are not here to handle business in the Wangsheng Hall, then what are you doing here?"
"I'm looking for Old Zhong... Ahem, Zhongli. Miss Ferryman just told me that Zhongli is in the hall, so I came in."
Xia Yu coughed lightly and explained that he almost said Old Zhongtou just now, but fortunately he reacted.
"Zhongli." Hu Tao tilted her head and stared at Xia Yu and said, "You have a really good relationship with that old antique. He never brings money when he eats out."
"...If he brought money, he wouldn't be called Zhongli." Xia Yu couldn't help but complain.
"That's right." Hu Tao also nodded in agreement. "Obviously, this hall master has never owed him wages, but every time he spends money outside, he sends the bill to Wangsheng Hall and asks Wangsheng Hall to pay it on his behalf."
"And all the money I was going to pay him was used to pay his bills. What a weird guy."
"That's right, he is just a weird guy." Xia Yu agreed with Hu Tao's statement. It would be good for physical and mental health to hurt Old Zhongtou.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that you have the same opinion as me. This hall master recognizes you." Hu Tao stood on tiptoe and patted Xia Yu's shoulder with satisfaction. "Since you are someone this hall master recognizes, next time if you have business you want to handle, come to me directly. This hall master will give you a 20% discount !"
After saying this, Hu Tao skipped towards the door of the Hall of Rebirth, saying as she walked, "Zhongli is in the inner hall. If you want to find him, go there."
"Thank you, Master Hu Tao."
Hearing the words of thanks, Hu Tao turned his back, waved, and disappeared in a flash.
Seeing this, Xia Yu laughed and shook his head. No wonder Zhongli couldn't handle it. With his old man's personality, he would be helpless in facing the eccentric Hu Tao.
Recalling Hu Tao's reminder just now, Xia Yu took a step and walked towards the inner hall of the Hall of Rebirth.
This time no one suddenly appeared to scare him, and a minute or two later, he arrived at the inner hall.
In the inner hall, Zhongli was sitting on the armchair, sipping a cup of fragrant tea in his hand, and a jade slip was placed on the table next to him.
That jade slip is the cultivation method that Xia Yu gave to Zhongli, the kind that can directly cultivate one to become an immortal.
"Hey, I didn't expect you to be slacking off again, Zhongli."
Hearing the greeting, Zhongli raised his head. After seeing who it was, he said calmly, "Why did you come to see me this time, Xia Yu? Do you want to learn the Sealing Technique now?"
