Genshen: Starting from Liyue, he is equipped with the seals of the Six Kingdoms

Heyu Teahouse.

Amid the applause of the audience, Niyu, dressed in casual clothes, quietly came to a corner of the teahouse and found Zhongli sitting there.

Seeing him arriving, Zhongli nodded slightly in greeting, then turned his head and continued listening to the play.

Niyu did not speak in a hurry, but poured himself a cup of tea first, and listened to the scene with Zhongli before he smiled and said, "Mr. Zhongli is so elegant."

"I'm not talking about elegance. I just heard that Mr. Yun has a new play, so I came here to watch it...it's really good." Zhong Li picked up the teacup and took a sip, sighing with satisfaction.

"Sir, this trip has been long enough."

"After shopping around Mondstadt, Fontaine, Nata, and Xumi, I still think Liyue is better. As I get older, my food still cannot be separated from the taste of my hometown... It seems that your apprentice has done a good job, that kid Xiangling The slow-cooked and marinated dishes are already as good as those of Marcusius."

"Xiang Ling has great talent and is willing to work hard. Some of her achievements are natural."

Niyu was polite, then told Zhongli about his preparations to go to Inazuma, and finally asked: "After all, this matter involves gods, I want to hear your opinion."

Zhongli thought for a moment, nodded and said, "There is nothing wrong with your thinking and your plan is sound, but..."

"Just what?"

"How should I put it... is the current Thunder God Baalzeb's actions... there are some things that cannot be predicted based on common sense. Although your plan is good, you still need to be prepared for variables."

These words made Niyu's heart skip a beat, and he thought to himself: "Since I came to the world of Teyvat, none of my plans have gone smoothly... Could it be that I have been infected by the first law of the Tongliao universe? Everything will go as expected. Accident?"

Seeing his embarrassed expression, Zhongli comforted him: "But you don't have to worry too much. That traveler is someone from outside the world. He is an observer, a recorder, and a person with great luck. She and you If we work together, everything will turn into good luck."

Niyu's face brightened slightly and he nodded slightly.

At this moment, a man in the attire of a courtier trotted to the tea table and said respectfully to Zhongli: "Mr. Zhongli, the hall master asked me to invite you back. We have important matters to discuss... Ah, Mr. Dan is here too, how about we come together?"

Niyu asked curiously: "What is it?"

The steward said respectfully: "It has something to do with exorcising evil spirits. You will know after you go there."

Ni Yu nodded happily and returned to the Hall of Purity with Zhong Li.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the Hall of Purity, Niyu saw a dozen tall men from Winter with scars on their faces, in groups of four, carrying a heavy coffin on their shoulders and practicing strange dance moves.

Niyu found it difficult to look straight at him, and couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead and shook his head repeatedly.

Seeing this, Zhongli explained: "To be honest, I saw this kind of funeral dance when I was traveling to Nata, so I wrote to the kid Hutao and mentioned it. I didn't expect that she actually went to Nata in person to show this kind of funeral dance. I learned how to perform funeral rites..."

Hearing this, the ceremonial steward also smiled awkwardly and said, "When the hall master originally advocated practicing this kind of funeral ceremony, most of us were opposed to it. Only the winter people you arranged to go to Guixi Hall, your lord, responded to the hall master's order. It has always been executed to the letter..."

"From what you're saying, do you think anyone is really willing to hold this kind of funeral?" Niyu's eyes widened.

"It's all thanks to you, sir..."

"What does it have to do with me?"

"Since the victory in the Liyue Defense War, Liyue has become the economic and trade center of the mainland. The number of merchants from various countries has increased by more than ten times? Coupled with the rapid development of Guili New City, many of them have moved to Liyue. The idea of ​​buying a property. Have you noticed it? In the past six months, there have been a lot more foreigners in Liyue City."

"What does this have to do with funerals?"

"Of course it does matter! With more foreigners, Liyue people will be exposed to more fresh cultures, and folk customs will become more open and pursue novelty. This is true in every aspect..."

"Even the funeral?"

"Even funerals are the same. We at the Rebirth Hall have long been proficient in the three major funeral systems of Mondstadt, Daoji, and Liyue. Not only foreigners can choose at will, but there are also many Liyue people who want to try new things."

"...Can you try this kind of thing?"

"There was indeed some gossip at first, but the hall master always told people that everyone can only die once, and they decide their own funeral. It is none of other people's business? Later, everyone got used to the new funeral ceremony, and there were fewer gossips. ."

Niyu was speechless for a long time, and in the end he could only look at Zhongli. After all, he was the most traditional person.

Zhong Li spread his hands and said: "I also raised doubts, but the hall master convinced me with just one sentence."

Niyu's eyes widened, "What did she say?"

Zhongli said: "She said that since ancient times, people can't choose how to be born, but they can choose how to die. Liyue, ruled by humans, can't even die a little more willfully?"

Niyu finally gave up, "What she said makes sense, but I can't refute it..."

"Of course what this hall master said is a wise saying!"

Following an energetic voice, a flash of bright red suddenly burst into view.

There was a hint of joy in the bright plum blossom pupils, but it was quickly suppressed and replaced with disgust.

"Ouch, our busy man finally remembered that he still has the insignificant title of guest minister?"

Niyu smiled awkwardly, "Isn't this busy..."

Hu Tao rolled her eyes at him, "I'm busy... When we were setting up town buildings in Guili New City, someone hid far away under the pretext of inspecting the foreign mercenary group. Is he also busy?"

Niyu had no choice but to turn to Zhongli for help.

Take care of your daughter!

Zhong Li coughed lightly and brought the topic back, "Master, let's talk about business first. Mr. Dan Keqing will go to Daozhu on business in a few days. He doesn't have much time..."

Before Zhongli finished speaking, Hu Tao's eyes widened, "Are you going to Daozhu again? Where to go? Haiji Island or Narukami Island?"

Niwa subconsciously replied: "Go to Kaiji Island first..."

"Are you going to see that beautiful sea girl?" Hu Tao's smile turned cold, "Does your Yu Hengxing agree?"

Niyu stopped talking.

This matter is difficult to explain clearly, especially since Hu Tao still knows the inside story...

Hutao rolled his eyes when he saw this, pretending not to care and said: "Forget it, I don't care about your affairs. Now that you are here, come in and have a cup of tea, and take a look at the evil spirits eradication plan for the second phase of Guili New City. Bar!"

Niyu finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Well...how is Hosseini's new version of the filth removal device?"

The atmosphere gradually regained its harmony, but Hu Tao's eyes showed cunning.

You're just pretending to be a serious person, right? Let's see!
