Genshin Impact: The Liyuemen of Tivat

Chapter 19
He asked you to call Zhongli because of sophistication, but if you really called Zhongli directly, it would be an accident.

Shi Lan respectfully said, "Mr. Zhongli."

Why respect?do not know!

Let the attitude be correct first.

This uncle looks young, but he speaks with an old accent, with the breathless oppression yesterday, if you say he is Li Yueye who walks the street with nothing to do, Shi Lan would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.

(Who the hell is this guy?)

Shi Lan thought hard and did not come up with a result.

(Could it be one of the other seven stars...!)

He only knows one Liyue Qixing now, and that is Tianshu Xing who occasionally goes fishing by the river—Uncle Tian.

Uncle Tian's fishing is a pleasure, every time Shi Lan leans over and asks him for two fish, correspondingly, Shi Lan only needs to be responsible for digging some earthworms for Uncle Tian or helping him handle the pole.

In addition to Uncle Tian, ​​there is also Sister Ningguang, who is about to take up the position of Tianquan Star.These two people are considered to be Shi Lan's backstage in Liyue.

All in all, it's always good to be respectful.

He stretched his neck and found that Zhongli actually came out of the Hall of Past Life, he couldn't help asking curiously: "Why is Mr. Zhongli in the Hall of Past Life? Are you talking about business?"

After saying this, he regretted it.

Come and talk about business in Shengtang, can there be any good things...

Seeing that Zhongli still had that kind smile, he quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhongli...I didn't mean to..."

Zhongli smiled and said: "No need to apologize, what you said is correct, I am indeed here to discuss business. However, it's not the kind you imagined. It should be said that it's about the job... that's probably it..."

"To work in the Hall of Death?" Shi Lan was full of question marks. He couldn't think of any career gaps in the Hall of Death.

Zhong Li said calmly, "They are short of an advisor..."

"Eh?"

Burning Man still needs a consultant?

This is the knowledge blind spot involving Shi Lan.

At this time, Hu Tao and her grandfather came out with some people.

These people were called out by Walnut to resist the wood. When they learned that the wood was dragged back by a child, their eyes almost popped out, but when they learned that the child who dragged the wood was named Shi Lan, they wiped it away. The cold sweat on his forehead.

Shi Lan, it's all right.

Anything out of the ordinary with this kid would not be out of the question.

Seeing Zhongli outside the door, Mr. Hu quickly stepped forward, cupping his hands repeatedly, apologetic: "I'm sorry Mr. Zhongli, I'm lazy, I can't go out to see you off, please don't blame me..."

Zhong Li shook his head and said it didn't matter: "Boss Hu has business coming, so naturally I won't bother you too much. From now on, I hope Boss Hu will take care of you."

"Where are you, sir, you are polite. You are talented and knowledgeable. After listening to a few words, you can see the light of day. It is our honor that you can join the hall of death."

The two of them chattered back and forth non-stop.

Hu Tao asked Shi Lan in a low voice: "Do you know Mr. Zhongli?"

Shi Lan opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. Can I say that I used him as a shield as soon as we met...

And looking at it now, this Zhongli seems to be really unusual, didn't you see that Mr. Hu is always polite to others?

But at least now it can be ruled out that he is a certain Seven Star.

Qixing went to work in the Hall of Rebirth, did he have no money or was looking for excitement...

Thinking of this, Shi Lan shook his head: "I don't know each other, we have met by chance."

Hu Tao felt that Shi Lan was lying, although she was very curious, but she understood very well and didn't ask further.

If people don't want to say it, they just don't want to say it, and it would be impolite to ask the bottom line.

"Then we'll see you later." Mr. Hu sent Zhongli away politely, and then greeted Shi Lan: "It's really rare, my granddaughter actually brought a friend back, what's the boy's name?"

"My name is Shi Lan."

"Yeah, nice name."

Mr. Hu obviously welcomed Shi Lan very much, but when he thought of Mr. Hu's profession, this enthusiasm made Shi Lan very uncomfortable.

All he could do was show an awkward yet polite smile.

"If you don't mind, come in and have a seat."

Shi Lan readily agreed.

In addition to wanting to see Hu Tao's big data collection method, he still wants to know why Hu Tao is so anxious to invite him to come to the life hall.

He quietly followed behind the grandfather and grandson, only to hear Mr. Hu asking Hu Tao: "Granddaughter, how did you know this Mr. Zhongli? You have made a great contribution to drag such a person into our Hall of Rebirth." gone."

Shi Lan raised his eyebrows.

(Huh? This feeling is Zhongli or Hutao found it?)

Hu Tao smiled and said, "Mr. Zhongli had no money to pay the bill for dinner at Wanmin Tang last night, and he kept picking on Master Mao's fault, saying that he was upset today, and there were many flaws in the dishes, which almost drove Master Mao out... ..."

Both Shi Lan and Mr. Hu were stunned.

Such a person can't afford to eat?Still chirping?
This is completely different from Zhongli in my impression.

Hu Tao continued: "I met him when I went to Wanmin Hall to advertise, and saw that he was very eloquent, so I chatted with him for a while. The words showed profound knowledge, outstanding talents, and knowledge of funeral rites. , try to invite him to come to the Hall of Life for an interview..."

Mr. Hu stroked his beard and sighed: "Not only is he quite understanding, he is also proficient. He knows many lost etiquettes and rules... Good granddaughter, you have found a talent for us in Xiangshengtang..."

Walnut scratched her head and smiled.

"But." Mr. Hu changed the subject, "It's too early for you to worry about things in the hall. Grandpa, I just want you to live a happier life and be more free. Don't hold your notes all day... oh correct!"

Only then did Mr. Hu remember that there was Shi Lan behind him, he turned his head and said:
"Little guy, it's your first time to come to Changshengtang, you just treat this place as your own home, don't be polite... You can come to play with Hutao when you have nothing to do, she is always in a hurry all day, I'm really afraid that she will grow up Afterwards, like the old man and me, there are not many close friends..."

Hu Tao puffed out her small mouth, very dissatisfied: "Grandpa! Why do I have no friends anymore! I still have ghosts!"

"I know you have a snot-nosed ghost friend! But you're a human, who would play with ghosts every day!"

Hu Tao stomped her feet when the old man said it, her face flushed slightly: "Grandpa!"

Shi Lan hurriedly interrupted: "Grandpa Hu, don't worry, I will often come to play with Hu Tao!"

Mr. Hu smiled openly: "That's good, if Hu Tao teases you, just tell me, and I will help you out."

"Thank you, Grandpa Hu!"

"Okay, okay! You guys play first, I have to talk about things."

After two or three sentences, Mr. Hu gave Hu Tao a few words and went upstairs. He still has guests to discuss business with, so we can't keep people waiting.

"Come in with me!" Hu Tao greeted Shi Lan and entered the study.

This place seems to be Hutao's territory alone. The room is in a mess, which is completely different from the cleanliness outside. There are scattered papers all over the floor, densely packed with what was written.

However, the few plum blossoms in the flowerpot on the desk added a bit of elegance, but at this level, even if Shi Lan didn't know how to arrange flowers, she could see that the flower arrangements were really individual.

Picking up a sheet of paper on the ground, there are several poems written on it: the sun comes out to bask in the sun, the moon comes out to bask in the moon, when the raindrops fall, I hide from the rain, and the sun rises to bask in the sun...

"........."

Shi Lan held back her laughter and almost felt internal injuries.

(Walnut... What a treasure girl...)
When Hu Tao saw the poem in Shi Lan's hand, her face turned red and she was a little embarrassed. She quickly put away her handed down work, and said falteringly, "I'm sorry, this impromptu work... makes you laugh..."

"Uh, cough, cough..." Shi Lan took a deep breath to suppress the smile in her heart, and said comfortingly, "How could... this poem, um, is indeed very distinctive..."

"Let's not talk about this, you drink tea first." Hu Tao immediately changed the subject, poured a glass of water for Shi Lan, and hastily cleaned up the scattered papers on the floor before stuffing them into the desk drawer.

Then, under Shi Lan's suspicious gaze, Hu Tao moved a stool and placed it in front of the bookcase, stepped on it and began to look through her bookcase.

"What are you doing?" Shi Lan was curious.

Hu Tao said without looking back, "I'm looking for my client list."

"Do you have any other lists?"

Shi Lan was really shocked. I saw the thick death list she was holding up earlier, but there are others in your family?

"Found it! It took me two and a half years to work on it!"

Hu Tao happily waved the notes in her hand, waving her hands and smiling like a butterfly, but she seemed to have forgotten that she was standing on a stool now...

Shi Lan was terrified when he saw it. The stool was estimated to be more than one meter high. It would be a crime to fall if he couldn't stand firmly. He quickly shouted: "Be careful! Come down first, can you?"

"Oh? Okay, I'm just... eh?!"

Before Hu Tao finished speaking, what Shi Lan was worried about happened.

Hu Tao turned around and supported the cabinet to get down. He just lifted one foot, but for some reason, the bench under his feet suddenly tilted.

Hu Tao let out an exclamation, shook her body twice and lost her center of gravity in an instant, fell forward uncontrollably, and the notes flew out...

"Danger!"

Shi Lan's eyes were quick and his hands were quick. He put down his cup in an instant while he was drinking tea just now, turned over and ran forward across the sofa to catch Walnut. At the same time, he also accurately caught the flying notes with his other hand.

"Are you okay?" Shi Lan asked with concern.

Shi Lan's face was close in front of her eyes, she didn't know if she was frightened when she fell or what happened, but Hu Tao felt her heart beating so fast...

She pointed to Shi Lan's hand holding her back collar: "Can you stop carrying me like a rabbit?"
