Genshin Impact: Wherever you go, all wear and tear will be eliminated

Paimon laughed for a while, took a breath, and said, "You have been talking for so long, but you still haven't explained clearly where this stone came from!"

Ningguang said briskly, pondered for a moment, and smiled slightly, "That's true. Then let's ask Captain Beidou, the famous navigator who is sung by thousands of people in Liyue, to explain it to us!"

"You woman! Humph, whatever." Beidou turned to look at the boulder and said, "It's a pretty big stone, right? The surface is quite smooth, and it looks like there is some treasure inside!"

Keqing nodded and explained the origin of the stone. "This thing was salvaged from the shallow sea by fishermen. Judging from its appearance, it must have been submerged in the sea for many years before it was washed into this state."

Ningguang hugged her breasts with both hands, opened her red lips and said, "Things that cannot be privately owned have to be handed over to the public, so that they can feel more at ease."

Sora stood there, pondering in silence, while Paimon asked, "Do you know what's in here?"

Keqing shook her head and said, "I have tried swords, clubs, and the Eye of God's attack is ineffective. Even if I bring the Guizhong Machine, I still can't open it. This stone is definitely not as simple as it looks."

Paimon put his hand on his chin and smacked his lips, "An invulnerable stone. It sounds very powerful!"

Ningguang smiled slightly, more charming than the countless glazed lilies on the Yujing Terrace, and said softly, "Keqing unexpectedly cares about this stone. Captain Beidou was not confident in handing it over to me, so he took this compromise approach."

"We'll talk about this later. Mr. Mo Ran, who are you guys looking for here?" Keqing finally remembered the people who had just arrived.

Ningguang looked at him with a playful look, and sighed, "Old man, you've been running around these days, you should pay more attention to your health. I don't want to inherit your family business so early!"

Mo Ran stretched out a finger and tapped Ning Guang's forehead, then laughed and said, "Then you can rest assured. That day is still a long way off. You have plenty of time to prepare. You can take over directly when the time comes. Don't worry about the liquidity of assets."

Ningguang was about to say something else, but Beidou interrupted her and said, "Ningguang, you should talk about your inheritance plan when you get home."

Ningguang snorted lightly, but was not annoyed. She glanced quietly at the heroic woman in red. This rival had always been with her since she entered the business world. Although they were friends, they often hurt each other.

Even the areas under their respective jurisdiction were involved, and they often set traps and tripped each other up.

Mo Ran shook his head and chuckled, then stroked his white hair and advised, "Okay, you two are really enemies, so if you have any problems, just solve them yourself later."

"Now, let me give Xiangling some ideas. This little girl is going to participate in the chef competition. She wants to break through her original path and combine thousands of changes into one. After she has mastered everything, she will become a new chef god!"

Xiang Ling was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved her hands and explained, "No! It's not as exaggerated as Boss Mo said. I just wanted to ask about your food preferences!"

“Eat? Such a sudden question…” Keqing murmured. Because she was diligent at work, she just wanted to eat all three meals without too many requirements. Of course, it would be even better if there were golden shrimp balls.

Ningguang seemed to be deep in thought. She knew a lot about food because she always demanded perfection. She also had an old man by her side who was as good as the Kitchen God. Over time, she developed a gluttonous appetite.

Ningguang's tone was calm, but her words were very picky and demanding. "My taste is very simple. I want something refined, simple, pure and delicate."

“You call this simple?” Beidou gritted his teeth and kept harping on Ningguang’s troublesome demands.

Ningguang smiled brightly, which was exactly what the saying "peaches are ashamed and apricots are inferior to each other" really meant. She asked knowingly, "You can express my request with just four words. Isn't that simple enough?"

Beidou put one hand on her waist, her graceful figure did not show any sign of weakness, but rather, she looked heroic and graceful as the wind.

She snorted, "A few weeks at sea will surely cure your affluence!"

Ningguang leaned back slightly, leaning on the arm of a man in black. She covered her red lips with her slender fingers wrapped in black silk, and said softly, "But the old man complied with all my four requests. Besides, I just happened to have that fate!"

Beidou opened his mouth, but was speechless, because what his opponent said was indeed an indisputable fact.

Kong looked at the two people who seemed to be at loggerheads, and quickly changed the subject, asking, "What does Beidou like to eat?"

"As for me..." Beidou said slowly, "Any fresh hot dish is fine. It would be best if it can be spicy."

Paimon suggested, "How about some snacks to go with the wine?"

Beidou laughed heartily and said, "Of course that's good."

Keqing had been thinking for a long time since the others asked her. She hesitated for a moment and said, "As for me... I still prefer seafood."

Xiangling thought for a moment and murmured in a low voice: "Seafood, hot dishes, and exquisite, simple, delicate, pure..."

Paimeng spread his hands and said, "Based on my many years of experience in tasting delicious food, these three things have nothing to do with each other."

Xiangling shook her head and said, "Not necessarily! Paimeng, you should know about golden shrimp balls, right?"

Upon hearing this, Keqing's pretty face immediately turned full of affection, as if she had been brainwashed.

Xiangling went on to introduce: "To make this dish, you must wash and remove the shrimp, then wrap it in very finely chopped potato shreds and fry it in a pan with oil at just the right temperature. It's a real Kung Fu dish!"

"The appearance is exquisite, the aroma is rich, and although the presentation is simple, the techniques used are very sophisticated, which fits Miss Ningguang's four-character summary very well."

Mo Ran nodded and said, "Indeed, it is good. The cooking skills, temperature control, and frying techniques of the golden shrimp balls all require careful study. This is why most restaurants in Liyue Harbor have this dish, but most of them are roughly prepared. Only the ones made by Wanmin Hall and Xinyuexuan are worthy of attention."

“However, compared to the golden shrimp balls, the lotus crisps are more difficult to make. It is really... a dish that cannot be made even if there is one more point or one less thread!” The man in black was still frightened. The dozen or so lotus crisps he made that day left a deep impression on him.

Paimeng smiled and said to Nuo Yu: "Aren't you a great chef? How could you be trapped by a mere lotus crisp?"

Mo Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and sighed, "It's not like you were born knowing how to cook. It's only natural that you have to face setbacks before you can improve. This is not just true for cooking, it's true for everything in the world!"

Paimeng said calmly: "Mo Ran's lecture on great principles is here again."

Kong nodded in agreement, and the little golden hair on his head swayed slightly.

Mo Ran just smiled without saying anything, quietly watching the little raccoon running and jumping around. There was a look of nostalgia in his eyes, and his thoughts went back to thousands of years ago.

He did not hear the conversation between Xiangling and the others. It was as if he was cut off from the rest of the world, standing here all alone, lonely.

When this feeling arose in Mo Ran's heart, he extinguished it with a single hand, shook it gently, a trace of clarity emerged in his eyes, and he was shocked and said in his heart: "What happened to me just now!"

He was just recalling the past, but he didn't expect that he would fall into a state of ecstasy. However, it was not a selflessness he chose, but a state he was forced into without realizing it.

If you don't break free in time, I'm afraid your consciousness will stay there forever, and your body will be like a stupid weirdo, confused and clueless.

Guoba noticed the fleeting look in his old friend's eyes and said in a voice transmission: "What's wrong? I haven't seen you show this kind of look in a long time. Could it be that the wear and tear has worsened?"

Mo Ran smiled and said in the same voice transmission: "It's okay, I just feel a little uncomfortable when I think about how I was a step late!"

The rice crust made a cheerful "gurgling" sound, while the man in black remained silent and did not say a word.

Next to her, Xiangling had finished her questions and greeted a few people, preparing to leave, "Boss Mo, Guoba! We're leaving."

Mo Ran looked up, nodded slightly, and followed the three people. Guoba did not resist this time, and followed behind the man in black, skipping and jumping.

Just now, the "gurgling" sound of the rice crust sounded to Mo Ran, but it was actually saying with a smile: "I've said it before, I don't care whether I'm a demon god or not. As long as there are still people who remember that I existed, as long as there are still people who like the food I cook, that's enough!"

The man in black could only sigh as these words echoed in his mind.

He couldn't help but not care about what Marcosius didn't care about. After all, if he had arrived earlier, even a little earlier, it would have been enough to save Marcosius's position as the devil.

But nothing in the world can be repeated. The past can only be the past, but the future is still unknown. Mo Ran secretly thought that there would be a way to help Marcosius recover his divine power and help Ruotuo Dragon King eliminate the wear and tear in the future.

Together, once again, we will hold a feast that is no less grand than the one we had back then, filling the dome with bright lights, letting the immortal music spread through the mountains, letting all the evil spirits retreat, and letting future generations sing the song for generations to come.
