Perhaps Bai Zhu's words had an effect, because Hu Tao pouted and let Qi Qi break free.
Mu Xian watched Qi Qi run out of the room, then quietly peeked out from outside the door.
The pair of eyes under the talisman looked at Hu Tao, and seeing that Hu Tao was still sitting there unharmed, it then turned its gaze to Mu Xian.
Stare~~
Even though she was just a zombie, Mu Xian seemed to understand something from Qi Qi's eyes.
"Big Sparrow~, I will protect you~"
The next moment, Hu Tao suddenly moved, startling the head so much that it immediately retracted.
Hu Tao looked at Bai Zhu with an unusually serious tone: "Bai Zhu, what is that main ingredient?"
"The powdered lumens should be about three ounces."
Bai Shu, who had spoken, glanced at Mu Xian and sighed with empathy: "But the Hall Master also knows that the current Layered Rock Abyss..."
"Oh, I see..."
The seriousness on Hu Tao's face vanished abruptly, and he patted his chest: "A Lumenite fragment is nothing."
"Could it be that Hall Master Hu can enter the Giant Abyss?"
"of course not."
"Then how did Master Hu obtain the Lumenite?"
"I can't go, but others can."
As she spoke, Hu Tao blinked and asked, "Can Little Wood go back to Liyue Harbor?"
Can he go back? Mu Xian thought it was unlikely.
But with the thought that taking a few more steps might lead to an earlier death and a return to peace, Mu Xian silently got out of bed.
The moment Mu Xian got out of bed, he almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Hu Tao helped him up in time.
"The little thing seems to be in poor health right now." After holding back for a long time, Changsheng, who was wrapped around Baishu's neck, finally spoke.
“It’s alright,” Bai Shu said. “I think I saw a messenger from Liyue Harbor to Qingce Village outside the window.”
"There should be a few carriages in the group. If we communicate with them a little, they should be able to take Mu Xuan with them."
"Over the years, the messenger teams have been led by Yuheng Star. Given his personality, we should return to Liyue Harbor sooner than expected."
Bai Shu's words made Mu Xian lower his head, but Hu Tao caught this action.
"Little Wooden Head, what's wrong now?"
"It's alright, let's go back quickly."
Mu Xian looked up, his face no longer showing the impatience he once had, but instead a cold indifference that kept strangers at bay.
Chapter 9 suggests suicide as an atonement.
"Lady Keqing, what...what happened to her?"
"New here? You don't know, do you? When Yuhengxing came to Qingce Village, she spent most of her time there."
"Oh... I've never seen the lady like this before."
"You're not used to it. Once you come here more often, you'll get used to it."
"Why is Lady Keqing acting like this?"
The young Qianyan soldier looked at his companion with curiosity in his eyes.
With a hint of embarrassment on his face, his companion glanced furtively at Ke Qing, who was leaning against the statue in the distance, and lowered his voice.
"This matter is considered top secret in Liyue. All information about it has been blocked by the higher-ups."
"Is there still such a thing?"
"Of course." The partner, who had plenty to say about the incident, said with pride, his voice lowering considerably: "You should remember the shipwreck five years ago, right?"
"How could I not remember? I heard that the incident was orchestrated by the Ninth Executive of the Fools, which alarmed all the Seven Stars, who questioned the executive on the Jade Capital Platform."
"Stop, stop talking, I'm sick of hearing about this."
The companion stopped Qianyanjun and whispered, "It's true that the Seven Stars were alerted, and it's true that the executor was questioned, but that's something for later."
"In fact, the Seven Stars fell for the Fool's trap and wronged someone."
"Although that person came from Mondstadt, he grew up in Liyue. He is a truly good person and he and Yuhengxing were childhood sweethearts."
Finally, Yuhengxing, along with everyone else, gave her childhood sweetheart...
"What are you saying? Why are you speaking so softly?"
Changsheng's voice came from the side, startling the two Qianyan soldiers who were whispering.
“Mr. Bai…” The talkative Qianyan Jun grinned, “What are you doing here?”
"I brought back some tea and medicinal herbs from Qiaoying Village."
Bai Shu ignored their whispers and replied, "We're heading back to Liyue Harbor now."
"I see..." Qian Yanjun breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Then Mr. Bai must have had a lot of trouble."
Bai Shu remained silent until he felt the time was right, then spoke up, "Are you going back to Liyue Harbor?"
“Yes.” Another Chiiwa soldier nodded. “We’ll head back once Lady Keqing returns.”
"Oh, is that so? If it's on your way, could you give me a ride?"
After Bai Shu finished speaking, Chang Sheng, who was wrapped around his neck, continued, "We have a patient behind us, and we need you to take care of him."
"This... requires Lady Keqing's permission."
"Don't worry, I will talk to Yuhengxing myself."
Bai Shu turned her head and focused her gaze on the purple figure in the distance.
He walked up to Ke Qing, blocking the sunlight with his body, casting his shadow in front of Ke Qing's line of sight.
Ke Qing looked up and seemed to see the blond figure.
"Mu Xian, did you hear my apology?"
"Miss Keqing, you've mistaken me for someone else."
Bai Zhu's voice brought Ke Qing back to her senses, and her spirits, which had just recovered, became much more listless.
"So it's Mr. Bai." Ke Qing lowered her head, her purple hair ornaments facing Bai Shu. "Is there something you need?"
“I do have some requests for Miss Keqing,” Bai Shu said. “But Miss Keqing’s matter seems to be much more serious.”
"I...I'm fine." Ke Qing tried to cheer herself up, but was instantly overwhelmed by a surge of guilt.
After a long silence, Ke Qing, having recovered, slowly spoke.
"Mr. Bai, Mu Xian is a very, very good person."
“He used to make candy from sweet flowers and give it to the children in Qingce Village.”
"He had a very handsome smile, but he must have looked terrible when he died."
Do you think he will forgive me?
Bai Shu knew that the person Keqing was talking about was someone everyone knew, as long as he was still in Liyue Harbor five years ago.
"Mu Xian... he really is a very good person."
"Since he's such a good person, he would definitely forgive..."
"I'm sorry, he won't forgive you. You'd better kill yourself to atone for your sins."
A cold, childish voice interrupted Bai Shu's words, and an awkward silence fell over the room.
Mu Xian appeared out of nowhere, wearing only an undergarment that made his body appear extremely thin.
"How can you talk like that? You're just as annoying as that guy," Changsheng said, his tone displeased.
Mu Xian glanced at the little white snake, hesitated for a moment, and then coldly said, "What I say is none of your business."
"You, you are simply..." Changsheng was about to speak when Baishu pressed him back down.
Bai Shu looked at Mu Xian, seemingly trying to discern something from him.
After watching for a long time, Bai Shu simply sighed and turned his gaze to Ke Qing.
Ke Qing stared blankly at Mu Xian, completely oblivious to everything around her.
Without the attraction of immortality, Mu Xian noticed that someone was staring at him.
He turned to look at the purple figure, his expression growing increasingly cold.
"What are you looking at?" Mu Xian said, taking a few steps back to create some distance between himself and Ke Qing.
"I...I'm sorry."
Ke Qing wanted to explain, but in the end she looked away: "I just think you look a bit like one of my friends."
"My name is Ke Qing. Can you tell me your name?"
"No," Mu Xian refused outright. "I don't think you're a good person."
"How rude!" Changsheng interrupted again, stopping their conversation.
Mu Xian glanced at Chang Sheng after hearing his words, and whether it was just his imagination or not, he felt a sense of gratitude in Chang Sheng's eyes.
illusion?
Before Changsheng could figure it out, he saw Mu Xian turn and leave.
They come and go inexplicably, as if they only came to exchange a few words.
Mu Xian was indeed only there to say a few words, and more importantly, to provoke that Miss Ke Qing's dislike.
Since he wanted to die, he didn't need Bai Shu to heal him. The young lady rejected Bai Shu's offer to bring people because she disliked him, which allowed him to have some fun before returning to Liyue Harbor.
Thinking of this, Mu Xian, who had walked some distance, turned around, but the two figures were no longer visible behind him.
"Little Wooden Head!"
