Chapter 565: Master Zhong starts again
"Anyway, since I have no power and am just an ordinary person, you might be a little busy."
Zhongli said calmly, "Xiao has also seen you. I guess he is also thinking about the question you just asked, is there anyone who has faked his death and survived?"
"there is none left."
"I know you guessed that the most likely person is Xiaoshen, but he is actually the least likely person. The other families are not as likely to survive as yours."
"Oh, that's right, my house is indeed like a turtle."
The man in black robe looked up and thought for a moment, then was suddenly stunned.
"That's not right. Why doesn't my man have a similar aura? This isn't normal!"
"Strange old man, why doesn't he have any traces of practicing the immortality method?"
"My family's longevity method was something that even you praised, but why is it that there is not even a trace of practice on Gu Sanqiu?"
"Where is my book "Supreme Longevity Secret"?"
Zhongli shook his head: "Lost it."
"ha?!"
The black-robed man was confused: "Is this any different than you saying you accidentally lost Liyue Harbor?"
"I don't know. This incident is just like what happened just now. I really don't know anything about it."
Zhongli shook his head: "I only know one thing. The last person who learned the method of longevity was Shao Chong. After he disappeared, your family's method of longevity was also inexplicably lost."
The man in black robe tasted it carefully and found something wrong.
Wait, there is no one who has faked his death and is still alive, so what about the missing people? Missing does not mean they are really dead.
According to this logic, Shao Chong should not be dead?
Damn, old man, you still say you don’t know, who would believe you!
"Yes, yes, you don't know anything. You are just an ordinary person who is powerless and doesn't even have money to carry with him when he goes out."
The black-robed man's complaining spirit burned fiercely: "I say, you might as well go directly to my family and reveal your identity. You'll have someone around who knows your identity and can pay your bill."
"My family has accumulated so much savings over the years. If you don't reveal your identity, can you really spend my money? I'm afraid that the person in my family is not that stupid."
"Soon. After this incident, I should be able to reveal my identity to him."
Zhongli said calmly, "Also, let me correct you on one point. I am now a guest official of Wangsheng Hall. You are not unaware of the relationship between your family and the Hu family. I don't need your family's money to spend."
…
What you said makes sense, but it also seems a little strange. What's going on?
"Also, the kid who wanted the Heart of God has been paying for me recently. I guess the research progress of the Hundred Taboos Talisman has been completed."
The man in black robe said lazily, " So you're going to continue spending my family's money?"
"No, he will definitely go out with me again for various reasons, because he has noticed that when Xiao Tao and I are around, Xiao San Qiu is more restrained and at least behaves like a normal person."
Zhongli said: "To sum up, although I never carry Mora with me, I am not short of money."
The man in black robe was helpless: "What if they find out who you are in the future? Wouldn't it be very embarrassing to spend a lot of money on a junior's wallet?"
Zhongli remained calm and said, "That's fine. Just consider this as my reward for helping him decipher the Hundred Taboos Talisman. By the way, I'll also collect a small amount of compensation for Liyue in advance."
"I have a clear conscience."
I'll go.
The man in black robe no longer wanted to talk any more. He felt that the weird old man always used some strange and heretical theories to cover up his shameless behavior .
I think you are just bullying me because I have low IQ!
This is why that bastard Old Saint always liked to chat with me!
He really couldn't find any suitable reason to refute Zhongli's sophistry logic.
…
Gu Sanqiu, who had no idea that he was suppressed by his level and could not figure out anything, ran to Liyue Bank to pay the balance. After all, as the city of contracts, it would be unacceptable to not pay before finding out what happened.
He didn't consider that Liu Sanhu was a man from the abyss.
Judging from several encounters, ordinary Hilichurls and Abyss Mages are fine, but those humanoid monsters probably have some kind of restrictions when they want to come to the ground.
If it weren't for their special location, those Apostles and the other Grace Brothers wouldn't be able to walk around on the ground so openly. They are roughly like wanted criminals who are always trying to avoid surveillance.
With the power of nature, no matter how well you hide something, in the eyes of the other party, there will be no difference between hiding nothing and not hiding anything.
As for Sister Lan, the president of the Adventurer’s Association’s Liyue branch, she is also a very interesting person.
The reason why they don't take care of affairs all year round is not because they are lazy. It is fundamentally different from some slackers.
Although Sister Lan was completely focused on finding the Hidden Sword, as an adventurer, her strength was more than enough. People from Yuehai Pavilion even tried to poach her several times.
As the president of the Liyue branch of the Adventurers Association, Sister Lan’s life experience has actually always reflected a truth, that is, after working hard, the world will respond to your will.
Even if the result is different from what you expected, the efforts along the way will definitely bear fruit.
Sister Lan has been searching for the Hidden Sword and working hard to complete all commissions related to the "sword". One day, she received a document from the Zhidong National Headquarters in an unclear manner.
Given that she had completed two difficult S-level commissions and had a perfect resume, Sister Lan was directly upgraded from a well-known adventurer to branch president, and her promotion speed was comparable to the rocket launched by Ms. Alice.
If it weren't for the old man directing and acting out the trouble himself, Sister Lan, who had thrown all the association's affairs to Catherine, would have been a complete hands-off boss. She would probably still be out there running around for commissions herself, just to find big brother's weapons.
"Wait a minute, if we follow common sense, the ceremony of sending off the immortals should be about to begin, right? Does that mean that Golden Retriever is about to formally meet his grandfather?"
Gu Sanqiu shook his head subconsciously. It shouldn't happen. The ceremony of sending off the immortal should wait until he wakes up before continuing.
He may not attend the ceremony of inviting the immortals, but if the ceremony of sending off the immortals really has to be held, he will probably have to do it himself.
Unless... some careless elder interferes in order to help him retire quickly.
"Cut the moon."
Zhongli directly sent a message: "Ask them to arrange a ceremony to send off the immortal. The reason given is that the emperor's body cannot be left in the golden house. It must be given the utmost respect. Do you understand?"
…
True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang was helpless: "Master, why don't you just come out and meet Liuyun Lishui and the others."
It's difficult for him to be a deer stuck in the middle!
Do you know how difficult it is to tell a lie every time? The two old friends have high IQs, and Liu Yun also has that inexplicable female intuition!
Shenlu felt that the mental energy consumed during this period was greater than that consumed in the past ten years.
It’s too tiring, it’s simply not a job that a normal creature can do!
"It's not the right time yet."
Zhongli said calmly: "Liu Yun has a stubborn personality. She won't give up unless she sees something of practical significance."
"Lishui isn't stubborn, but right now we need him and Liuyun to stand on the same side, that's the only way to be safe."
