"Huh? Hall Master, why are you here?" Zhongli couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he saw Hu Tao suddenly appearing from nowhere.

Hu Tao patted his chest. "Oh, do I really need to report to you, my guest, where I'm going? I'm not saying anything harsh, but he's just asking for directions. Why are you being so serious? It's like you're interrogating a criminal."

Then turned to Ying,

"Don't take it too seriously. This guy is just like that. He always has a gloomy face. If you don't know him, you might think someone owes him money."

Ying smiled and nodded.

Hu Tao chuckled, "You're looking for Su Mo, right? He's in the General Affairs Department, um..." Hu Tao snapped her fingers and glanced at the sky, "Hmm... I guess he's not off work yet. If you're not in a hurry, you can wait for him at the door. He'll definitely pass by there."

"OK, thanks."

"Hey, you're welcome. My name is Walnut. What's your name?"

"Hello, my name is Ying, and I'm a traveler." Ying introduced herself.

"Traveler? That's strange." Suddenly, Walnut thought of something and her eyes sparkled. "Will you get hurt or encounter dead people during your travels?"

"Ah? Dead?"

"Yes, yes. To be honest, I'm the head of the Wangsheng Hall." He then looked at Zhongli and said, "This is my guest. Our Wangsheng Hall is mainly responsible for funeral affairs. By the way, have you ever encountered a dead person or an injured person?"

"Well... I've gotten hurt, but I've never seen anyone die."

"Oh, I see." Walnut's mood was a little down, but then she regained her usual enthusiasm. "It's okay, nice to meet you. If you encounter something like this again, please let me know. Of course, as a reward for your business, we at Wangshengtang can give you a buy one get three free promotion. How about it? Want to try it?"

Looking at Hu Tao's expectant eyes, Ying felt a little embarrassed.

Why is this girl so enthusiastic when talking about burying people?

"Haha, no need, but if there is, I will definitely let you know. Now I have to go find my friends, so I'll be leaving first."

"Ok, bye."

"Alas, as expected, I still have to rely on this hall master."

Looking at Ying's receding back, Hu Tao couldn't help but sigh, then turned to the two of them with some displeasure.

"You two can't even do such a simple thing. You are really bringing shame to our Wangsheng Hall."

"Huh? That's not right, you haven't left yet." Walnut frowned slightly and looked at Tartaglia with some displeasure.

She deliberately ignored this guy, but this guy really had no tact.

Thinking of this, Walnut's tone became a little cold.

"Where did you take my guest today? He even skipped work and went out with you so early in the morning."

"Haha, hello, Hall Master Hu. I have some things to deal with with Mr. Zhongli later."

Seeing this, Tartaglia greeted him and unconsciously put his hands behind him.

Noticing Tartaglia's little action, Kurumi couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, then leaned over to look at the slightly dirty jade pot in his hand, an expression of disgust evident on her face.

"I thought it was something valuable, but it's just a dirty jade pot. What are you hiding? Are you afraid that this hall master will snatch it away from you?"

Seeing that he was exposed, Tartaglia couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. He was naturally worried about this, but judging from the other party's expression, he probably didn't realize the value of the pot. Now that it was exposed, there was no need to hide it any longer.

"Master Hu is indeed a man of great discernment."

Hu Tao was a little disdainful. "Tsk, I'm not that kind of person. Everyone knows that my Wangsheng Hall is the most loyal and kind one. I'm also a very good person."

"Don't you think so, Keqing?"

However, no one responded to Walnut's call.

"Your guest?"

Hu Tao was a little confused and looked at Zhongli, only to see that he was looking at the receding back thoughtfully.

Traveler? Looks like it's almost here.

"Your guest!"

"Hmm? Is there something wrong with the Hall Master?" Zhongli reacted and was a little confused.

Hu Tao looked at the beautiful scenery in the distance and couldn't help but say in a heavy tone: "Keqing, I know that living alone is very lonely. While you are still young, it's not too late to pursue your own love."

"Hmm? What are you talking about, Hall Master?"

Walnut covered her forehead with her hand, looking quite astonished. "Oh, stop talking, stop talking. I understand. The saddest thing in the world is missing out on the right person. Go ahead, Keqing. Don't worry about my feelings. I support you!"

Hehe, if Zhongli can find his other half, then can't she bring Zhongli's other half into the Hall of Rebirth?

For the sake of his family, Zhongli will surely work hard.

Thinking of this, Hu Tao couldn't help but start to imagine Zhongli's married life.

……

"Zhongli, didn't you work hard again today? You won't get your salary today."

"No, Master, I won't dare to do that again. My wife is still waiting for my salary at home. If you don't give it to me, she will definitely scold me to death."

"Are you still absent from work?"

"No more, no more!"

"Okay, I forgive you this time."

"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master. You are indeed a tolerant and generous person."

"Yes, Xiao Zhong, if you can speak, then please speak more. With my guidance, the Wangsheng Hall will surely flourish in my hands!"

“Hehehehe… hehehehe… hahahahaha… hahahahaha…”

……

That’s the feeling, great!

Looking at the silly-smiling Hu Tao, Zhongli's mouth twitched slightly. What's wrong with this girl again?

Seeing this, Tartaglia quietly moved closer to Zhongli and whispered in his ear: "Mr. Zhongli, what is Master Hu saying..."

Tartaglia looked at Kurumi who was grinning foolishly during the day and seemed to be at a loss for words. She was fine just now, how come she suddenly became like an idiot?

Zhongli covered his forehead with his hands when he heard that, feeling somewhat helpless, and said, "Don't worry, she's just like that." After that, he walked forward on his own.

Tartaglia looked at Kurumi who was still grinning foolishly, scratched his head in confusion, and then followed.

"Hehehehe, hahahahaha, so, Zhongli, you have to listen to me from now on, or I'll dock your salary and see how you'll explain it to your wife. Do you hear me?"

"Huh? Zhongli?" Hu Tao looked to the side and saw no one there. She looked around hurriedly and saw Zhongli and Tartaglia walking away into the distance, one after the other.

Seeing this, Hu Tao couldn't help but shout: "Hey! Where are you going again? Zhongli, you haven't finished your performance for today yet!!!" Then he chased after them.

……

Ying walked on the streets of Liyue Harbor.

"General Affairs Department?"

Just as Ying was lost in thought, Paimon's voice suddenly came from a distance.

"fluorescent!"

Seeing this, Ying hurried over to meet him.

"How is it? Did you find out?"

Paimon chuckled, crossed his arms, and looked very proud. "Don't worry about what Lord Paimon does!"

Uh……

Ying suddenly had a bad feeling. Every time Paimeng did this, something bad happened.

As he thought about it, his hand unconsciously raised up, and Paimon's face changed drastically when he saw this.

"Oh," she hurriedly hugged Ying's arm and laughed, "What are you doing? I didn't say anything."

Ying snorted coldly, "Then tell me what you found out. Oh, and don't tell me you found out where the restaurant is."

Paimon chuckled, looking very proud. As expected, it all depends on Master Paimon. "You don't understand, don't you? Although I have already got the specific information, restaurants are also very important. After all, eating is the most important thing in the world."

Ying looked at her with a dark face, "Don't tell me you really went to ask where the restaurant is."

Paimon snorted, "So what if it is? So what if it isn't?"

Hearing this, Ying couldn't help but roll her eyes and was about to raise her hand.

Paimeng was shocked when he saw this, and his defense was instantly broken. "Hehe, I was just joking with you. Not really, not really, haha..."

"Hmph, what did you find out?"

After hearing this, Paimon couldn't help but feel a little proud. Hey, this crazy woman looks so arrogant, but it turns out she's just a weakling. She can't even do such a small thing. She deserves to be cheated. Hehe, at the critical moment, she still has to rely on her, Lady Paimon, to guide lost travelers.

Ah, lost traveler, let Lord Paimon guide you in the direction!

To highlight his importance, Paimont deliberately coughed a few times and said, "Well...well, Liyue's official organization is..."

"General Affairs Department?" Ying said.

"Yes, that's right, it's the General Affairs Department, eh!? How did you know?" Paimon looked at Ying in surprise.

Ying looked at Paimon like he was a fool, "Did I ever say I didn't know?"

"Ah—you're still asking me?"

"That's just to confirm it."

"You are deliberately teasing me!" Paimeng complained. She was trying to pretend in front of Ying, but this guy already knew about it. Doesn't that make her look like an idiot?

No! No! How could she be an idiot? If she was an idiot, she would be a bright idiot!

"I didn't say I didn't know. I'm still counting on you. I might as well ask a few more people for directions."

Seeing Paimeng's reluctant expression, Ying couldn't help but smile, "Okay, okay, let's find Su Mo and ask him to treat you to a big meal, okay?"

"Okay, okay! I want to eat sweet flower stuffed chicken,"

"Liyue may not have this."

"If not, then I want to eat roast chicken! Boiled black bass is also fine! And... grilled steak, grilled..." Paimon snapped his fingers and began to prepare one by one.

Seeing this, Ying shook her head helplessly and then walked forward.

"Let's go, General Affairs Department."

"Vegetable salad...honey-glazed barbecue...oh, there's so much to eat, I want to eat it all!"

"Huh?" Paimeng looked around with some confusion, seeing that there was no one beside him. He hurriedly looked for the person and found that the figure in front of him had already walked a long way away. He hurriedly chased after it.

"Ying!? Hey! Ying, wait for me, I want to eat grilled fish. If that doesn't work, any grilled meat will do! Vegetable salad is fine too!..."
