Chapter 495: The Strange Person Who Came Over for No Reason
Having successfully preserved this precious scene, Xiangling turned around and pushed the rice crust back to her seat, and everyone started their battle at the dinner table again.
This kind of purple food is rarely found, so Gu Sanqiu decided not to complain about his golden finger with a very poor presence for two days.
Well, it’s just for these two days. As for whether I will complain in the future, it depends on my performance.

After having a good meal and a good drink, to be precise, Beidou was the only one who was drunk. Except for Keqing and Ningguang who still needed to prepare for the ceremony in a few days, everyone had their own activities arranged.
For example, Zhongli went ahead to find a good spot to watch the show.
Ever since Hu Tao took control of his financial lifeline, the old man's retirement life has lost its former extravagance. Now, he doesn't even book a private room in advance and order a bunch of fine snacks and tea before going to the theater.
Keep it simple.
"Well, sitting in the lobby, it seems that I can also listen to different people's opinions on a play, which is also elegant."
As to whether it was self-hypnosis, only Emperor Rock King himself knew.
Although he was able to impress a group of wealthy people in Liyue with his knowledge and make them willing to pay for him, that was just a spontaneous act and an unexpected result of seeing a stranger who was willing to chat.
If the goal is to find someone to pay for him, then even a casual chat will become distorted and not good.
Brother Xiao stayed until the end, Bai Zhu and Qi Qi had already slipped away. The latter told Gu Sanqiu that he had eaten a little too much today and needed to do more stretching exercises in the evening.
Seeing Brother Xiao cleaning up the dishes in a rather unskilled manner, Gu Sanqiu had a hard time holding back his laughter.
"Brother Xiao, let me do it. I can solve it by transforming into a Dharma image."
Seeing the multi-armed Dharma image created by Gu Sanqiu, Xiao pondered for a moment, and then the wind element with a slight hint of golden light floated up gently on his body, and he placed the dishes in his hand safely into the kitchen sink.
"Okay, it seems that you are already very skilled, Brother Xiao."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and gave a thumbs up. The multi-armed Dharma image behind him did not dissipate, but was used by him to wash dishes, so that multi-line operations could be resolved earlier.
Xiao originally wanted to try the simple activity of washing dishes, but when he held the dish towel in his hand, his Yaksha nature would always be inexplicably activated...
After washing and breaking five or six bowls and plates, Gu Sanqiu smiled and pushed Xiao to sit next to the stone table, then made him a cup of Xianxian tea.
Although I don’t know whether people with Yaksha physique are afraid of gaining weight, it should be fine to drink a cup of tea to remove the fat.
But, is Xiao using the dish towel as a weapon?
Gu Sanqiu was in an awkward mood. Things like teacups, bowls and chopsticks were easy to deal with, after all, Xiao would go to Wangshu Inn to improve his meals before, but this was probably the first time he had come into contact with household items like dishwashing towels.
However, the accident is somewhat fun.
Although this type of "fun" is a waste of tableware, and it is also possible that the head will be filled with Hepu Kites condensed from wind elements.
You can’t laugh. If you laugh out loud you’re in trouble!
…
Three days later, the Yujingtai ceremony began. After a certain Yuhengxing argued for her position, she successfully won the position of the chief priest of the ceremony to see off the heroic spirits.
In front of the big cauldron, Keqing, wearing ancient clothes and holding a scroll, recited the sacrificial text carefully prepared by the Yuehaiting secretariat team. Surrounding her were the people of Liyue who came spontaneously holding small incense burners.
The incense burner and incense sticks are provided free of charge by the Liyue Seven Stars. You can get them just by coming over.
The Qianyan Army stood around to maintain vigilance, or rather, they also had a mission to accomplish.
Show the current image of the Thousand Rocks Army, so that the heroic spirits buried deep in the land of Thousand Rocks can rest in peace.
"It should have been a lively scene, but everyone was quite serious."
At the edge of the crowd, Gu Sanqiu was hiding in the shade wearing a black cloak, naturally because the weather was too hot.
There is no other way. If I don't wear this outfit, it will probably cause some impact on the ceremony.
"Yes, it's really rare that so many people can still maintain such a solemn atmosphere."
Another man in black robe came to Gu Sanqiu's side. The two men, who were of similar height, stood in the shade. If you didn't look carefully, you would think they were just background boards.
"Hey, what's this brother's name?"
Gu Sanqiu secretly became alert. He ran over to watch wearing such an outfit because of his inconvenience in identifying himself. Then what about the guy in front of him?
With so many Qianyan Army soldiers around, there shouldn't be any idiots who want to cause trouble at this time.
It's hard to say.
Gu Sanqiu held back the hidden weapon in silence. Since the other party had the confidence to talk to him, it proved that he was a pitiful person who was fearless and suspected to be a bandit.
"Hey, I didn't expect to meet someone wearing the same clothes as me here. This is really interesting."
The visitor smiled, then stretched out his right hand and reached into his arms, and took out a wine jar sealed with mud. In the center of the mud seal, a Qingxin flower was outlined with silver thread and jade.
"Come on, good brother, meeting is fate, cheers!"
Gu Sanqiu couldn't help but glance sideways: "Let me ask you one thing first, this shouldn't have been stolen from somewhere."
Drawing on the mud seal with silver thread and jade requires not only sophisticated skills but also considerable financial resources.
This jar of wine is very expensive, and it is very likely that it has been stored for decades and can be regarded as a precious collection.
Simply put, it is Wendy's happy water.
"Hey, brother, you look down on me."
The black-robed man who took out the wine jar was a little furious: "This is a treasure of my family. If I didn't see that we are destined to meet today, I wouldn't take out such a good thing!"
"Okay, okay, I'm grateful that you think highly of me, brother."
Gu Sanqiu took out two wine glasses. When he saw that the wine poured from the jar was extremely clear, just like a mountain spring, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
As we all know, old wine is prone to forming cream. However, if it is preserved in a more sophisticated way, not only can you taste the precipitation of time in the wine, but you can also not see the cream if you pour the wine directly after opening it.
“Interesting.”
Gu Sanqiu now believes that this somewhat eccentric person is a hidden wealthy man, or at least the kind that has been wealthy for three generations, otherwise many details like drinking would not be so rigorous.
"Hey, cool."
The man in black robe raised his head and drank it. "Good wine, good wine. I didn't expect to come here to watch the ceremony and encounter such an interesting thing. I have to say that you and I are destined to be together."
"Yes, yes, it's fate."
If the rock elemental force attached to the bottom of the cup had not reacted abnormally, Gu Sanqiu would have tied this man up by now.
Further away from the two black cloaks, Zhongli stood silently in a corner. The passers-by seemed not to notice this young and handsome man with eyes full of vicissitudes of life.
But when Zhongli shifted his gaze and saw the two people chatting happily and drinking wine in the shade, the vicissitudes in his eyes instantly disappeared, and turned into an expression of helplessness, but also a bit of laughter.
"That's it."
Zhongli coughed lightly, and his mental power slowly entered the black-robed man's mind.
But the man in black robe seemed to feel nothing. He continued to chat with Gu Sanqiu for a few more topics. Then he slapped his head and said, "Something happened suddenly." After turning several corners, he completely disappeared.
At the third corner, Gu Sanqiu stood there speechless, because the trace had been cut off here, and the man also drew a big smiley face with mud, which looked more like mockery than happiness.
