Chapter 207 Gu Sanqiu: My vest fell off?
"Eh? This, hehehe..."
Hu Tao put her hands behind her back and started whistling to act stupid, refusing to answer Gu Sanqiu's question directly.
"Answer honestly."
Gu Sanqiu grabbed Hu Tao's cheek kindly: "Otherwise..."
"By the way, Sanqiu, look over there, who's back?"
Hu Tao's eyes rolled and then pointed in the direction she was running from. A man with golden eyes and a girl with slightly darker skin were walking towards her.
"Brother Gu, I haven't seen you for a long time."
Gu Sanqiu forced a smile with difficulty: "Yes, it's been a long time, but I have seen the bill you sent me."
"Oh, that was the hall master's idea."
Zhongli betrayed Hu Tao quite calmly .
"The original words of the hall master were 'Sanqiu can't spend all that money by himself, why don't we help him share the burden', but I didn't expect it to be so effective."
"Zhongli, guest minister Zhong!"
Hu Tao gritted her teeth as she looked at Zhongli, whose expression remained calm. If it weren't for the hustle and bustle of the city, she would probably have already held the Staff of Homa in her hand.
It’s over. I guess I can’t escape the identity of the number one wallet.
Gu Sanqiu felt snow falling in his heart, and then he looked at the girl beside him.
"Xin Yan, how did you two get together?"
"Hahaha, long time no see, squad leader. Actually, I have been back for a while, but I have been staying in Yuheng Mountain to practice my rock skills."
Xin Yan laughed heartily and said, "Not long ago, when I was rehearsing my curtain call, the noise was a little loud. Hu Tao and this gentleman thought there was a fire at Yuheng Mountain, so they ran into each other."
Well, this is very Xin Yan, very good and powerful.
"Oh, when I saw it was Xin Yan, I knew what was going on. I asked about the time and it was about the same, so we all came back together."
Hu Tao took Xin Yan's arm and ran to the side, then stuck out her tongue at Gu Sanqiu provocatively.
"Oh, forget it."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head and could only write this matter down in his little notebook.
"By the way, squad leader, the situation in Fontaine seems to be getting weirder and weirder when I was out this time."
Xin Yan frowned and said, "Anyway, it's just a feeling that I can't put into words. It feels like there's something wrong with that country. It's not rock 'n' roll at all."
"Oh, don't worry about that. You go there to learn what you want anyway. Just take care of yourself in other aspects. It's not Liyue, so you don't need to worry about it."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and said, "Besides, have Fengdan and Xumi ever been normal in the past few years? The scholars from the Xumi Teaching Academy running around everywhere are enough to give local departments a headache."
"Well, this answer is indeed very class monitor-like."
Xin Yan pondered for a moment and said, "That's right. Now that we are back, we should enjoy the holiday and not think about these things."
"Yes, yes, let's go shopping, Xinyan, let's go~"
Hu Tao took Xin Yan shopping, and Gu Sanqiu subconsciously touched his chin, feeling that he had seen this scene before.
Wait, there have been times before when you wanted to settle accounts with Hu Tao, but this girl just found an excuse and ran away.
"A few days ago, there seemed to be a large number of evil spirits gathering in various places. Is this related to Brother Gu's going out?"
Gu Sanqiu turned to look at Zhongli and said, "Well, you all know that the suicidal adventurer wouldn't spread this matter around, would he?"
"Well, the most likely person who can be active on a battlefield like that is you, Brother Gu."
Zhongli nodded: "However, I still don't understand some details. If it is convenient, can you tell me in detail?"
Good guy, so you want to listen to live storytelling, right?
Gu Sanqiu scratched the back of his head: "Then let's find a quieter place, or just go to my house?"
"Of course."
"Then my house."
Just take the boss home, but the subsequent plot is just ordinary storytelling.
"Oh, so it's the legendary immortal Yaksha. This is surprising."
Although he expressed surprise, Zhongli remained calm as he took a sip of tea.
What a surprise! Aren’t those the immortals you summoned back then to be the vanguard and sub-C?
Gu Sanqiu, who already knew the other party's identity, felt the pain of having his identity spoiled.
"Well, it tastes slightly bitter at first, but after swallowing it, you can feel the fragrance filling your stomach. The blending of the two is extremely harmonious, without any abruptness. Good tea, good craftsmanship."
…
For some reason, whenever the old man praised himself in various aspects that were not related to work, he always had the illusion that he was caught slacking off at work by his boss.
"Brother Zhongli, I noticed that there are quite a few industrial-related bills sent to you. How are you doing with that research?"
"There has been considerable progress in the research on those firearms."
Zhongli directly took out the metal products of different lengths and said, "Brother Gu, please take a look. This is the result of my research some time ago. I wonder if you can give me some comments on it."
"Pistols, submachine guns, sniper rifles..."
Gu Sanqiu turned his head and looked at the "pistol" beside him. The caliber was obviously ridiculously large, but the gun body was also ridiculously short.
If my eyes are not blurry, the caliber of this pistol is almost the same as some small-caliber artillery used in special operations.
This thing might become a personal weapon in the era of big technology with a punk background, but when it is taken out at this time, I don’t know what to say except that it’s awesome (beep——).
In other words, in this era when even the buildings are ancient, the appearance of this futuristic gun-shaped structure is really too advanced.
"Brother Zhongli, what is this?"
"Well, last time I carefully studied the magic weapon called sniper rifle that Brother Gu gave me. As the saying goes, hard work pays off. I finally found a way to integrate elemental power into bullets."
Zhongli explained: "But from the current point of view, the technology is not mature yet, and the problem of caliber size cannot be solved."
"If you want to achieve a certain level of lethality, even a pistol can only maintain this level of caliber."
Zhongli looked at Gu Sanqiu: "When my research encountered new problems here, I felt that Brother Gu was worthy of being the successor of the Fengxiang lineage."
"To put it mildly, Brother Gu is worthy of being the head of a noble family that has absorbed thousands of years of knowledge. I am not as good as you in this respect."
(__)ノ|Wall
To be honest, Gu Sanqiu was starting to panic. Zhongli was indeed boasting about his forging skills, but when translated to his ears it sounded like a slightly threatening remark like "your vest has fallen off".
The old man hasn't revealed his identity yet, so this should just be a compliment between friends, right?
No!
It has to be!
What should I do otherwise!
What is the crime of deceiving your boss?
Wouldn't it be that the heavens and the earth would move until death? !
