To the eternal you

"Has the Emperor also ushered in this day..."

Mandrill's expression didn't change much, he just frowned.

"...I can't imagine. No matter how the times change, the emperor who will always lead the immortals and mortals will leave so suddenly."

"What role will the Liyue Seven Stars, who are in charge of the human world, play in this incident?"

Paimeng and Ying were a little hesitant about whether they wanted to be for the Seven Stars, or the people of Liyue represented by them. But Liyue's partners Ying knew, as well as the people living in Liyue Port, should have the opportunity to defend themselves.

Immortals don't usually live in Liyue Port, and the good changes in Liyue Port will naturally be attributed to the emperor's credit.

No matter what Liyue Seven Stars did, they couldn't match the achievements of the emperor, but the scandal of being in power spread far and wide into the eyes and ears of the immortals.

Although the strength of the common people is weak, they are also working hard to make Liyue Port a better place. If the immortals deny the current Liyue Port, is it really okay...

Speaking of which, I haven't heard Qi's opinion.

Thinking of this, Ying cautiously asked: "Do you think that Liyue Qixing really has the intention of arrogating?"

Logically speaking, she shouldn't ask such questions that are too obvious, but if she doesn't ask at this time, Qi may not be accepted because Xianling is too young... It's better to say it in advance, maybe It can change the mind of the Great Sage Conquering Demons.

At that time, Qi will not be the only one among the immortals who has such a goal and fights alone for Liyue.

"Hmm... I haven't met the Liyue Seven Stars, and most of my knowledge about them is based on hearsay, so my judgment may be wrong. But for another person who can influence them, I am familiar with it, and it can be regarded as a good one." friend."

Everyone looked at Qi, and the girl touched the small exquisite corner of her head in embarrassment.

"She is the elder sister Gan Yu of Yuehai Pavilion. After the Demon God War ended, she voluntarily stayed in Liyue to help build a better city-state. She also took over the job of assisting Liyue Seven Stars and became their common secretary. Liyue's divisions She also handles the integration of many important paperwork in various ministries, so if you want to know whether Qixing has a different intention, you should be able to get the answer from her."

"Gan Yu...the name seems to have been heard somewhere?"

Paimon vaguely remembered hearing about it the day he first came to Liyue.

"When I was eating with Xingqiu and the others at Wanmin Tang, the diners on the side were discussing. At that time, the atmosphere of fighting against the enemy and fools was very active, so I eavesdropped for a while."

"They said that Gan Yu threw all the idiots who made trouble into Qianyan Army's prison, and also severely defeated the prestige of the idiots' executive officers."

"It's really amazing to be able to teach a domineering executive from that kind of country a lesson!"

Answering Paimon's doubts, Ying also pretended not to care and asked.

"Speaking of which, are Qi and that Miss Gan Yu just ordinary friends?"

"I always feel that sister Ying has something to say, but it's true."

Mandrill also recalled something, and said in a dull tone: "Gan Yu signed a contract with the emperor in the past to assist Seven Stars in governing Liyue Port for more than 3000 years and more than [-] years. I may be partial in my heart, so I just use it as a reference."

"Hey! Has it been that long? I feel that the immortals have been guarding Liyue Port for a long time, but since they want to assist in governance, why don't you just let Miss Gan Yu take the position of Seven Stars?"

"Because it is the kingdom of humans, the direction of progress is guided by the emperor, and if humans are also governed by immortals in Liyue Harbor, wouldn't it be like keeping humans in a comfortable prison like animals?"

The emperor's expectation for Liyue Port is not imprisonment for the reason of protection.

"After the Demon God War ended, not all the immortals signed a contract with the emperor to continue guarding Liyue Port, and some lived in seclusion, or traveled far away, or even had no news of it, and they had different opinions on human beings."

"So if the immortals are really assigned the duties of the Seven Stars, then human beings may never have the opportunity to gain power, and they will not be able to grow. They will only start to cling to the immortals in order to bless their descendants. After all, human life is too short..."

Pray for a little loss at the end of the words.

Ying also said clearly: "In other words, is the role of a god more like a guide? It can provide protection for human beings, but it can't be overly pampered."

"Letting human beings too close to the world of immortals and demons is in itself transgressive. Human souls are not as strong as immortals, and it is even more difficult for their blood to carry such a concentration of immortal luck. Even if immortals do nothing but settle in Humans in Liyue Port will also be affected by this, so it is necessary to draw a boundary between immortals and mortals."

Mandrill, on the other hand, had a higher opinion of this traveler, being able to judge the correct answer from very little information was indeed remarkable.

"In short... all the immortals have reasons for not wanting to be contaminated by the mortal world, but duty is duty after all, and Liyue's chaos will eventually be dealt with."

"Because our God is the God of Contract."

"I feel like my view of the immortals has changed! I think a lot about the people living in Liyue Port behind the scenes that everyone doesn't know about."

There was a lightness in Paimon's voice.

"By the way, I have one last question! What happened to Xiao Ming?"

"When subjugating demons and eliminating demons, I occasionally encounter evil spirits that have never harmed anyone, and it is difficult to get rid of them for the time being."

Mandrill paused, his eyelids slightly pressed.

"So please ask the boss and shopkeeper to keep it for a while."

"So it was raised by the proprietress and shopkeeper?! The business scope of this inn is too wide..."

Paimon, who was overflowing with sympathy, couldn't help sighing, his words and smiles are so pitiful.

"Don't be overheard by Boss Philgodette, she doesn't like being called Boss Wife."

Qi reminded in a low voice.

"How did Qibao know?" Paimon said for a while.

"Yeah... how should I put it, because I was born in a prayer, I can see the wishes in other people's hearts. The boss of Philgodette seems to be quite distressed by being called the boss lady by customers all the time."

"Pray for treasure...?" Mandrill's stern face showed some doubts.

"Hmm!" The girl's cheeks turned red with embarrassment. It's really embarrassing to be called by a nickname in front of everyone!

"... Cough, since you are here with the human beings, I will go to the three True Monarchs, Qiyue, Lishui, and Liuyun."

Although Mandrill seldom communicates with others, there are reasons for it, and it is not to the point where he cannot see the girl's embarrassment, so he just hugs his chest and closes his eyes.

"At that time, our decision will also take your opinion into consideration."

After the words fell, Mandrill turned into a puff of green smoke and left.

"Let's go, if this is the case, we have fulfilled the orders of True Monarch Moon Cutting and Building Sun!"

Paimon clapped his little hands and cheered.

"You can go back to Xingqiu and ask how the situation in Liyue Port is, and then return the Bai Wu Taboo to the person who claims to be Dadalia."

Ying also felt that the pressure had decreased a lot, at least not as much as it was in the beginning. Thanks to Qi Bao, she was really her lucky star.

"I'm also going to ask sister Ganyu to come out, and the questions about the Liyue Seven Stars must be answered."

Qi chuckled and agreed.

"But before that, please wait."

——The girl is cooking——

"Oh oh oh~! It smells so good~!"

In the antique kitchen of Wangshu Inn, there is a petite girl standing in front of the cauldron.

The orange-red flame was burning at the bottom of the pot, and from time to time, bubbles would come out and make a "pop" sound after bursting. White steam kept rising from the crimson-red pot, and the girl kept stirring it with a long spoon half the size of her body. There is a sweet smell in the air.

With constant stirring, the liquid in the pot became viscous again, and finally turned into a semi-solid and semi-liquid state.

This is the maple syrup that was used to drizzle over the almond tofu just now.

Paimeng showed an expression of wanting to eat before, and the desire in his heart was too noisy. In addition, he had promised everyone before that he would make a big meal, so he couldn't break his promise.

The girl exhaled and pressed the big spoon. The maple syrup underneath was soft, as if elastic. Ying asked Ying to hold the big baking pan and pour it into it slowly.

Then use a spatula to clean the edges and corners of the syrup. After applying it, use a knife to cut into small pieces suitable for swallowing. The orange-yellow sugar cubes are like jelly, with good color and attractive scent.

"Wow~ Paimon can't bear it anymore!"

She stretched out her small hand to pick up a piece, trying to make a fast food judgment, but unfortunately, Ying interrupted it.

"Wow?! It hurts!"

"Little Paimon is not allowed to mess around!"

"Sister Paimon, please wait a little longer~"

Put the baking tray into the ceramic oven on the side, close the lid, and the flames are constantly baking the oven above, and occasionally a few sparks emerge from the gaps between the shelves.

There is dessert after the meal. The glutinous rice on the other side is white and moist. Put it into a large bowl, and then put it upside down on the plate prepared in advance. It is served with sweet and sour dried fruit. The missing thread creates a new level for the taste.

Then pour in the golden egg liquid according to specific lines, and draw a few strokes with crab paste. There is a unicorn sleeping quietly on the white jade glutinous rice. Just watching it makes people feel calm.

On the plate for the traveler, the girl quietly put the petals of the glass lily.

The girl sat gently at the side, looking at Paimeng and Ying who were feasting, with a serene smile on the corner of her mouth.

I cherish you, no matter how small the wish is, I hope to make it come true for you.

When it was almost time, she took out the similar maple syrup that had been baked before. The color was as crystal clear as amber, stacked them, and served them to the dining table.

I hope that this dish with a wish for the good in the world will allow travelers in a hurry to enjoy the taste and double their happiness.
