Genshin Impact: I, who only wanted to play badly, have become famous

Three days later...

In the northern part of Liyue, Qingce Manor...

The sound of suonas was deafening, and mournful songs filled the mountains and fields. The entire fields of Qingce Village were filled with people dressed in white mourning clothes, and the cries were heard one after another.

Under the guidance of Hu Tao, several strong young men carried a huge coffin and slowly placed it into the dug pit.

"May you rest in peace and sleep. At the junction of yin and yang, someone will welcome you and take you to the land of bliss..."

Zhongli handed the eulogy to Hu Tao, who stood on a high place and performed the burial ceremony.

Qiqi hid among the children in Qingce Village and waved the white flag in her hand with them.

Ye Luo and Agui followed the young men, scattering the paper money in their hands and piling the items that were to be burned together next to the grave.

The relatives and friends of the deceased gathered around the grave and cried, feeling grief-stricken.

Bai Zhu sat under a tree not far away, crying and coughing.

Changsheng sighed softly: "Do you feel regretful? You have tried your best to save the old man's life, but the result..."

Bai Zhu took off his glasses, wiped his tears gently, and sighed: "My emotions are very complicated now. As you said, I may feel a little regretful, but more of it is doubt..."

"What are you confused about?" Changsheng asked.

Bai Shu said: "Her condition has obviously stabilized. As long as she takes the medicine on time, she will recover in a few months. Unless she suddenly stops taking the medicine, I can't think of a reason why she could die so soon..."

"The old lady had a strong desire to live, and her children were very filial, so it was unlikely that she stopped taking the medicine for their own reasons."

"What on earth is the reason that made the old man give up taking the medicine according to my prescription..."

Changsheng nodded: "You suspect there is something fishy going on. Everyone I have met before has doubts. You might as well go and ask them."

After Ye Luo scattered the paper money, he walked over to Bai Zhu and asked, "Mr. Bai, there is something I don't know whether I should say or not."

Bai Zhu nodded and said, "You can talk about it."

Ye Luo frowned, crossed his arms over his chest, and analyzed carefully: "Today, when I was helping the deceased to sort out his belongings, I found a large amount of herbs stored at home."

"I've also read the prescription you wrote. The herbs in it are very similar to your prescription."

"That is to say, the deceased had enough medicine at home, but she died because she ran out of medicine. Isn't this too strange?"

After listening to Ye Luo's words, Bai Zhu smiled and said, "So, you also discovered this doubt."

Ye Luo's eyes lit up: "Mr. Bai, have you made any plans for the next step?"

Bai Zhu shook his head: "There is no better way. We can only investigate carefully through questioning. Why don't we go and ask who the deceased met before he was alive and what happened to him."

The two of them first walked up to the crowd of ordinary people watching and picked out an old man who was sighing in admiration.

"Grandpa, what is your relationship with my deceased grandmother?"

The old man leaned on his cane and slowly turned around: "It's nothing, we just live in Qingce Village, we are neighbors, and we occasionally meet on the road and chat. I haven't seen her go out for a while, and today I learned that she was seriously ill. Now she is gone. It's not easy for her to live to this age, alas..."

Ye Luo and Bai Zhu looked at each other and shrugged: "It seems that he doesn't know. Let's go ask someone else."

The two walked for a while and entered the inner circle, which was mostly populated by people who had close connections with the deceased.

Two young people, a man and a woman, were leaning against each other and sobbing quietly.

Ye Luo and Bai Zhu approached and asked, "Excuse me, may I ask what is your relationship with your deceased grandmother..."

The two young men sighed heavily, the young woman wiped her tears, and the young man replied: "The person who passed away was our distant aunt. We came from Chenyu Valley and knew that our aunt was seriously ill, but we didn't have time to visit her. But when we came, we received such bad news. Sigh..."

The young man kept sighing heavily. Although he didn't look very sad, he was full of regret.

Bai Zhu nodded, and Ye Luo was helpless: "It seems that we can only ask the deceased's closest people. Maybe only they know who the deceased had met before he was alive."

Bai Zhu reminded: "Don't provoke the family members with words. They are very emotional right now. Just do your best."

Ye Luo responded, went into the innermost circle, and walked to the deceased's son and daughter. They looked haggard and seemed like they hadn't had a good rest for several days.

"Um... please accept my condolences..."

Ye Luo said cautiously, and the children of the deceased looked up at him and stood up to respond.

The old man's son responded respectfully: "Master Ye Luo, thank you for taking the time to come and help arrange my mother's funeral..."

Ye Luo was a little surprised: "Do you know me?"

The old man’s daughter replied: “Master Hu of the Wangsheng Hall introduced you to us. You are the head of a village, and you came to Qingce Village specially to help us. We really... have nothing to repay you..."

Ye Luo hurriedly explained: "I took the initiative to help you, not to ask for anything in return, but I do have some questions to ask you. Of course, if you feel that there is something wrong, you don't have to answer me."

"Please feel free to ask. If we know anything, we will tell you everything..."

Ye Luo thought for a while, then asked word by word, "Why didn't your mother take the medicine that Mr. Bai Shu prepared for her in her last few days? Did she see... two people selling medicine before she died..."

Bai Zhu thought Ye Luo would ask tentatively, but he didn't expect him to go straight to the point and choose to go straight to the point. It seems that he has already tacitly agreed to this matter in his heart.

After asking this question, the old man's daughter immediately knelt on the ground and burst into tears.

The old man's son choked up and angrily cursed: "It was those two bastards who deceived my mother!"

Ye Luo's eyes widened immediately, because he knew that he had asked the right question...

Bai Zhu immediately asked: "I'm sorry, the following conversation may affect your mood, but please give me more details."

At this time, Hu Tao came over and said in a dull and weak voice that was rarely heard on weekdays: "Why not wait until the funeral is over before asking those questions? Then let the old woman's daughter send her off for the last time."

Ye Luo lowered his head and said nothing. Bai Zhu nodded. The two of them supported the old man's children and approached the grave that had been built.

Paper money flying in the sky was like white butterflies dancing freely; paper people and straw horses gradually turned into ashes in the sea of ​​fire; the sound of suona drowned out the entire Qingce Village, and the mournful cries continued for a long time.

Walnut looked up into the distance and saw the afterimage of an old man dancing in the fire.

"Rest in peace. We will definitely help you and catch the murderer who killed you. Please rest in peace..."

After hearing Hu Tao's words, the old man's afterimage seemed to nod and dissipated in the wind.

In a moment, a red butterfly circled around the crowd and landed on a glass lily...
