Genshin Impact: Forced to Become a Follower of the Seven Gods

"Hey!"

A strange voice sounded at the window. The two people in the room looked at each other and turned their heads to look at the window next to them.

Outside the window, a girl wearing a small hat poked her head out with a smile, her eyes full of shrewdness, "Is this how you become a guest official?"

Inside the house, two men were wearing black robes. On the table, besides a few scattered pieces of letter paper, there were snacks from Wanmin Hall and fragrant tea.

"Hall Master." Zhongli nodded and gestured to the seat next to him.

Walnut pretended to sigh heavily, then walked around to the small door next to him and came in.

In the elegantly decorated tea room, Su Ming reached out to pour tea, then took out a contract from the side and handed it to Hu Tao, "This is a long-term order."

"Oh?" Kurumi let go of the ghost on her fingertips, opened the envelope and read it carefully, with a look of surprise on her face, "This is... Fatui?"

Su Ming nodded and said, "I have gone to the General Affairs Department with the other party to make a backup, and this contract has come into effect."

"But..." Kurumi tilted her head and tapped her black and red nails on the letter paper, "Does that mean I have to go to the Kingdom of Winter often?"

Su Ming looked up in surprise, "What are you going to do in the Kingdom of Winter?"

If I go there and happen to pass by my cheap parents on the street, wouldn't Hu Tao scream that the place is haunted?

Hu Tao stood up slightly from the stool, leaned forward, pinched the little ghost and rubbed it against Su Ming's nose, "Don't we need to send the coffin back? There should be a saying similar to the return of fallen leaves in the Kingdom of Dongdong, right?"

Su Ming tilted his head to resist the urge to sneeze, and said helplessly, "So have you read the contract carefully? The Kingdom of Winter will regularly send ships to welcome the coffins of the deceased back to the country."

"Is that so..." Walnut sat back down while pinching the little ghost, her palms supporting her cheeks. The tender flesh on her cheeks was pressed into an arc that made one want to pinch it.

Su Ming took a sip from the teacup and lowered his eyes. "They died in a strange place, so we must follow the local customs to bid them farewell. After returning to the winter, there will naturally be a more grand ceremony."

On the side, Zhongli raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes flashing.

For some reason, I always feel that Su Ming, the executive, does not seem to have a strong sense of belonging to Zhidong Kingdom.

Hu Tao pursed her lips and sighed, "After I became the hall master, I thought the second ceremony I held would be Su Ming's!"

Who would have thought that this person was so lucky that he is still alive.

"So how many Moras are needed for the farewell ceremony at Qingce Manor?" Hu Tao pulled a piece of paper and started writing and drawing on it with a pen. Suddenly, he looked up at Zhongli with expectant eyes. It was obvious that a certain hall master really trusted the guest official who was willing to spend money for his family.

Zhongli sighed helplessly, "Seven pieces, I prepared them a few days ago and put them in the box."

Even after retirement, he still has to take care of children. He has no idea how many generations he has taken care of in Wangsheng Hall.

On the side, Su Ming leaned back in his chair and squinted his eyes. "So, can my soul be seen at the junction of Yin and Yang?"

"Huh?" Hu Tao blinked in surprise, biting the pen with his tiger teeth, "You are not dead, why are you asking this question?"

Even if a person is dead, he may not be able to see his soul.

Su Ming rubbed the ring and chuckled, "I'm just curious if you went out of your way to look for me when you couldn't find me."

“Of course I did.” Hu Tao spread her hands, looking serious. “I even took Xiangling and the others to look for it. When they didn’t find it, Xiangling thought it was because of Chongyun’s pure yang body!”

"Chongyun?" Su Ming turned his head, with a puzzled look on his face, "Can a pure yang body enter that kind of place?"

Hu Tao nodded and said seriously, "Of course you can, but there are a lot of restrictions. When Chongyun first entered, he ate popsicles all day long!"

Zhongli, who was listening quietly at the side, felt helpless. He flicked a piece of tea stem and said, "You're not dead yet, why are you curious about these things?"

He wasn't this curious even after he died once, okay?

The tea stems with slightly cool water drops fell on Su Ming's nose. He touched his nose and sighed, "Because I always feel like I have died once, oh no, many times..."

Zhongli:? ? ?

Under the puzzled gazes of the two people in front of him, Su Ming spread his hands, "I think if Hu Tao waits carefully, he might be able to see me jumping back and forth at the door."

There's nothing you can do. If you're unlucky, you'll die anyway.

Hu Tao was slightly startled, but then she reacted and scolded with a smile: "Then I will make you, the unlucky guy, pay for the threshold!"

"But Su Ming's personality is really suitable for the Wangsheng Hall..." Hu Tao tilted her head and looked at Su Ming, sighing, "I always feel that Su Ming doesn't seem to care much about life and death."

Su Ming turned around and pointed at himself, "How much do you think I care?"

Go ask those little grass gods! Don’t ask me!

"If he still can't figure out the truth about life and death..." Zhongli curled his lips, slightly closed his eyes and carefully smelled the tea fragrance, his tone indifferent, "then these twenty years have been lived in vain."

Life and death are big matters to others, but to Su Ming, they are daily occurrences.

Hu Tao looked at Su Ming helplessly, then reached out and stuffed all the notes on the table into her arms. "I still have to prepare for the ceremony. I'm leaving now!"

Before he finished speaking, Su Ming spoke up, "Ying seems to be exploring Wuwangpo. We can travel together if we meet."

"Huh?" Thinking of the delicate blonde girl, Hu Tao's eyes lit up, but she seemed a little disdainful.

Su Ming reached out and grabbed the strap behind Walnut's hat, saying helplessly, "That floating spirit is quite afraid of ghosts, so it's best..."

walnut:? ? ?

Is she the kind of hall master who can scare people?

Su Ming smiled slightly, "The point is to scare them so much that they don't dare to go to Wuwangpo for a month."

Walnut: ヾ(? ■_■)

So you are this kind of Su Ming...

However, the guest official has just received a large order, and Master Hu must definitely satisfy his small request!

Hu Tao patted Su Ming's shoulder with a smile and untied the tie of his hat, "Don't worry, I will do it!"

She is the great Master Hu, and she is best at scaring people!

Watching Hu Tao jumping away, Su Ming returned to his lazy state again, curled up in the chair and not wanting to move at all.

Zhongli sighed, his expression a little strange, "Are you having a conflict with Paimon?"

Why does he feel that Su Ming is becoming more and more extravagant?

"No." Su Ming opened the map and took a look, then sighed, "I just hate something she once said..."

Zhongli raised an eyebrow and looked at the young man in front of him, "?"

Su Ming put his hands behind his back, with an innocent and kind smile on his face, "Let's explore the area ahead later~"

Then, it fell to the ground and needed a Teyvat omelette to pull it up...
