Genshin Impact: Immortal Cave

Changsheng, the white snake hanging on Bai Zhu's neck like a scarf, came to find Li Mochen because Qiqi was missing.

This is nothing new. Qiqi is a zombie who often runs around by herself and sometimes traps herself. For example, if she can't climb over a wall, she will keep climbing over it until someone helps her or the wall collapses.

She often goes to collect herbs alone, which has become her daily habit.

So, when Li Mochen heard that Qiqi was missing, he thought that she must have gone out to collect herbs and got lost again. This had happened many times before and he had looked for her every time.

But Changsheng shook his head seriously and said that this time was different, Qiqi might really be in trouble, and Bai Zhu was not in Liyue, but had gone out to visit friends.

When Li Mochen heard this, he frowned, thinking that the matter might be a little serious.

Qiqi's route for collecting herbs is fixed, usually starting from Liyue Harbor, passing Tianheng Mountain, Dunyu Mausoleum, Tianqiu Valley, and finally to Jueyunjian.

Bai Zhu was worried that she would get lost, so he placed a sachet with a special herbal scent on her body so that he could find her by following the smell.

But now, Changsheng couldn't find Qiqi, which meant that she was not on her way to collect herbs.

So, where did she go? Or, who took her away?

Li Mochen asked Changsheng if he had any suspects. Changsheng thought about it and came up with a strange name: "Unless it was Wangsheng Hall." "Wangsheng Hall? Isn't that a funeral business?"

Li Mochen had heard of this well-known company in Liyue Harbor. They mainly dealt with funeral matters and provided a series of services. Normally, this kind of industry should make money in a low-key manner, but Wangshengtang was very famous.

As far as Li Mochen knew, the Wangsheng Hall was a bit alternative, like a punk-style funeral organization.

Their advertisements are very unique, such as "Buy one get one free for cremation services", "Luxury coffins with air conditioning, warm in winter and cool in summer", and "Membership card activity, 100,000 Mora for free funeral coffin dance music".

Seeing this, Li Mochen was stunned. The funeral industry could be so exciting and unusual.

He also heard that there was a real rock star named Xin Yan in Liyue Harbor, who was invited by the Wangsheng Hall to sing at the funeral. Although Xin Yan did not agree in the end, this was enough to prove how alternative the Wangsheng Hall was.

Li Mochen has always kept his distance from this group of people. Most people may not be able to accept the buy-one-get-one-free cremation service.

However, he did not expect that Qiqi's disappearance would be related to Wangsheng Hall.

Could it be that Qiqi was taken by them to participate in some "punk funeral show"? Thinking of this, Li Mochen couldn't help but shudder.

Changsheng sighed and said that Qiqi had been targeted by Wangsheng Hall for a long time.

Li Mochen was puzzled. Qiqi was a zombie and didn't need funeral services, so why was there any need to target her?

Changsheng explained that the previous hall master might have thought so, but everything has changed since the 77th hall master Hu Tao took over. Changsheng gets a headache when he mentions the prankster Hu with twin ponytails.

Li Mochen remembered Qiqi mentioned Hu Tao's name and complained about her. Qiqi said Hu Tao was "high temperature, fake smile, death, and disgusting".

From what Changsheng said, Hu Tao might want to bury Qiqi, let her "die of old age" and re-enter the cycle of reincarnation.

No way, could it be that Qiqi had been missing these days and was kidnapped and buried by Master Hu? Thinking of this, Li Mochen couldn't help but shudder.

"Hey, isn't Qiqi a zombie? She also has life. How can we just get rid of her? That's too cruel." Li Mochen jumped up immediately when he thought of what might happen to Qiqi.

"Changsheng, I'm going to go to Wangsheng Hall now." He decided.

"I want to go too, but Bai Zhu is not here and it is not convenient for me. I can only rely on you." Changsheng agreed.

Li Mochen and Changsheng left Aozang Mountain and headed straight for Liyue Harbor. Although the Wangsheng Hall was well-known, not many people actually went there. After all, no one wanted to be tainted by bad luck. The previous hall master might have known the limits and built the hall in a remote corner. If it were the current hall master Hu Tao, he might have set it up in the middle of the harbor, which would be a good show.

Walking along the south side of Liyue Harbor, near the corner of the towering mountain wall, you can see a big house. There are three pillars standing outside the door, which look like three giant candles from a distance. The wooden door exudes an ancient atmosphere, and even the window grilles exude a primitive flavor. Usually, this place is sparsely populated and seems quite deserted. But this is normal for the little sister standing at the door of the Hall of Rebirth.

Wangshengtang's business deals with life and death, so it would be unusual to have so many guests. So the younger sister stood at the door in a daze all day. She was supposed to be responsible for reception and business introduction, but she always nodded indifferently, threw a catalog to the guests, and was too lazy to speak.

Suddenly, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, getting closer and closer. I glanced casually and saw a young man with a snake-shaped ornament hanging around his neck.

“Hello, is this the Hall of the Dead?” the young man asked anxiously.

"Yes, this is the project catalog, take a look yourself." The younger sister glanced at him and casually threw the "Funeral Affairs Book" on the ground to him.

This young man was Li Mochen, who had brought immortality with him. When he took over the "Funeral Affairs Book", he couldn't help but frowned, obviously dissatisfied.

"Why, you think it's too expensive? You can bargain, but we won't lower the price." said the younger sister.

"Then why are you still bargaining... We are not here to hold a funeral."

"Oh, you're here to apply for a job? Can you play the suona or carry a coffin?"

"Neither! I'm looking for someone! I'm looking for your hall master Hu Tao!"

"Sorry, Master Hu is not here today."

Hu Tao is not here? Li Mochen and Changsheng exchanged glances.

"Excuse me, where is Master Hu?"

"She is presiding over an important funeral, and other matters cannot be disclosed."

An important funeral... Could it be the seventh day of the seventh month? Thinking that the seventh day of the seventh month might be buried, Li Mochen felt a chill down his spine.

No, we have to contact our superiors immediately and find a way to rescue Qiqi!

"Miss, is there anyone else in the hall who can make the decision? I have something urgent to discuss with the person in charge."

"Oh, are you saying that I have no right to make the decision? Are you looking down on me, your little sister?"

“No, no, no, I don’t mean that. Can you contact Master Hu?”

"I'm just a little sister. What's the point of telling me this? I'm not the person in charge."

“Are you kidding me!”

After being teased by this seemingly indifferent but actually sultry little sister, Li Mochen couldn't help but take a deep breath and consider whether to overturn the hall directly.

"Well, just a joke to liven things up. There's a counselor in the hall, I can take you to him."

The younger sister seemed to notice his irritation and answered seriously.

The...consultant of the Hall of Rebirth?

What is going on here? Is there a need for a consultant role here?

Forget it, let her take him to find someone who can talk first.

"Please, little sister, take me to see the counselor."

"You actually called me little sister. How rude."

"Uh, excuse me, what's your name?"

"My real name is not worth mentioning. Don't ask."

"...Okay, let's not talk about it, Miss."

Amid the verbal sparring between Li Mochen and the "let's not talk about it" lady, she finally opened the door of the Hall of Rebirth and led him in.

I had thought this place would be eerie and scary, since it was the headquarters of the funeral industry, so there should be paper money, paper figurines, and incense sticks everywhere. However, I followed "Let's Not Talk" in and found that the room was quite normal.

The hall was bright and decorated in a simple style, just like walking into an antique mansion. After walking for a while with "Let's not talk about it", they came to the back garden.

There are many crystal clear "glass lilies" planted in the garden. A slender figure sits in the pavilion, enjoying the flowers and drinking alone.

Hiss... this person is...

Li Mochen couldn't help but stop when he saw the man. It was the first time he met such a special man in this world.

The man was about 26 or 27 years old, with regular features and a slender figure. But what attracted people most was his extraordinary temperament. He sat quietly in the pavilion, drinking the best wine in the world, but gave people a noble feeling of sitting on the throne of the palace and tasting the wine of God.

Emperor? Regal? Monarch?

Almost instinctively, Li Mochen had this impression in his mind, as if he was approaching an emperor who was traveling incognito.

"Mr. Zhongli, I'm sorry to bother you. A strange guest said he had something urgent to do."

When "Let's not mention it" came to the pavilion with "incomprehensible", she bowed to the man and said respectfully.
