Xiao in real life felt relieved. No wonder the Emperor said he couldn't stand the Hall Master's personality. The case is solved now.
As expected, every word the Emperor spoke had a deeper meaning, and this was the time when we should trust the Emperor the most.
[Hu Tao laughed and said, "Oh dear, I'm so sorry. But you wouldn't have shown yourself otherwise, would you?"]
Walnut is mischievous, but she has high emotional and intellectual intelligence, and she has Xiao under her thumb.
Xiao is actually quite easygoing. His biggest problem is that he's hard to meet and hard to communicate with, but he's not very good at refusing people when you do talk to him.
In particular, Hu Tao was the head of the Hall of Rebirth, and Zhong Li mentioned the predecessor of the Hall of Rebirth in the book.
In ancient times, disasters were frequent and death was unavoidable for humans. However, too many deaths could lead to plagues, so the Hall of Rebirth was born.
The work of the Hall of Rebirth is to expel plagues, send the souls of the dead back to their rightful place, and distinguish between life and death.
Hu Tao was very satisfied with Zhong Li's explanation: "That's right, that's exactly it, Guest Elder gets one point!"
Zhongli +1, but I don't know how many points are needed for a perfect score.
The most troublesome thing about Walnut's invitation to Xiao for a meal is actually Xiao's karma, which is also Xiao's biggest worry.
Xiao dislikes socializing, partly due to his personality and partly due to his karmic burdens, as he fears that interacting with others might make them uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the people Hu Tao invited were all talented individuals, a veritable gathering of wise men. In the presence of these people, Xiao's karmic power posed little threat.
Xingqiu immediately said, "Great Sage Subduing Demons, there's no need to worry. This young sorcerer has pure Yang energy protecting him; he can withstand much."
Readers also understood that Xing Qiu really takes every opportunity to tease Chong Yun; the two of them have a really good relationship.
Chongyun: "These are two different things!"
"Besides, didn't you just put the carrot in my bowl? Don't look away."
The two little ones started arguing, which actually eased the oppressive atmosphere when the topic of 'karma' came up.
Readers felt that this was a heartwarming story, but the memory of the previous story about Crane View made them a little uncertain.
Qiu Cheng, Qiu Cheng, should we believe you or not?
In short, let's keep watching with a skeptical attitude.
This time it was Chongyun's turn to complain about Xingqiu, and Xiangling also sided with Chongyun because it was Xingqiu who was picky about food first.
Xiangling said it was a good thing Guoba didn't come, otherwise she might have forced the carrot into Qiu's mouth.
Lin Qiu agreed with this. How could one be picky about food? Look at me, I'm never picky about food, not even when it's Ying's cooking.
However, the food Ying made was really good. Good things should be shared, and I only shared it with the soldiers.
Xingqiu exclaimed in surprise: "Huh?! Is Guoba really this stubborn?"
Adamant increases Attack but decreases Special Attack. I never expected Guoba, who always breathes fire, to be a physical attacker.
Speaking of his stubborn personality and love for spicy food, it's no wonder that Guoba always takes a bite of chili pepper before spitting fire. That makes sense.
The three little ones' conversation gradually made the atmosphere of the meal more cheerful, and the traveler took the opportunity to ask Xiao about his recent situation and health.
[Xiao: "The situation is alright."]
Xiao recently ran into an old friend who helped him stabilize his karmic burdens.
Readers were curious about who Xiao's so-called old friend was, and Xiao made no attempt to hide it, saying:
"I suppose you should know... "
Before he could finish speaking, a whooshing sound of wind caught everyone's attention.
But this sound of wind is strange. It's not the sound of wind, but rather a 'sound of wind,' an imitation of a person blowing.
【???:“The wind brings the seeds of stories…”】
Paimon unconsciously chimed in: "...'Time makes it sprout!'"
The two exchanged a secret signal, and Hu Tao noticed the person outside the door.
[Hu Tao instructed Zhong Li: "Guest, don't just stand there, quickly open the door for them!"]
That's Hu Tao for you; he even dared to have the mighty Rock God as his doorman.
Wendy didn't really want Zhongli to open the door for her, so she just blew it open with the wind.
Wendy walks into the house: "Hey, you've finally let me in."
He was also particular; he wouldn't enter unless invited by the host.
"Hey everyone, whether we've met before or not, it's a brand new encounter! Happy holidays to all my friends, old and new!"
Another social terrorist has arrived.
The readers were amused. They had guessed it was you when they saw a hurricane push the door open, but it turned out to be Walnut.
I thought it couldn't be you this time, but it really is. You're a born rebel, aren't you? You truly deserve to be called the God of Freedom, even your timing for appearing is so free.
Xiao was shocked: "!?"
Another god?!
Wow, it really is you! This doesn't seem like things are going to get much better.
One emperor is already under a lot of pressure, and now there's a wind god too?
If it weren't for Hu Tao and the others, things would be fine. But now that Hu Tao and the others are watching from the sidelines, and these two powerful beings don't want to reveal their identities, Xiao has no choice but to play along.
[Hu Tao stood up to greet the guest: "Oh my! This young man is so dashing, he looks like my future friend."]
Wendy nodded: "Yes, look at this young lady's demeanor, she's as bright as a flower, as radiant as the morning sun, she's clearly the most influential person here!"
The two people started praising each other and quickly became close friends.
However, Walnut does indeed resemble a flower; there's a plum blossom in her hat, and her eyes are also plum blossoms.
But what surprised readers even more was Xingqiu's reaction; he seemed to know Wendy.
Xingqiu: "Ah, it's you!"
Wendy: "Hey! Isn't this Mr. Zhenyu..."
Upon seeing this, Xingqiu spat out a mouthful of tea. "Damn it!"
Dude, we're both novelists, why are you revealing my pen name?!
Can that stuff be exposed? It would be so embarrassing if people I know saw it! They know I write novels, but they don't know what I'm writing about!
However, Xingqiu was also a little confused as to when he had met Fengshen.
----------
Character Voice - Kurumi: About the dinner party
"Haha, how interesting. My little Qiuqiu knows so many people. Maybe she can gather all the gods together this time."
Chapter 352 The show begins!
Readers share the same question, since Lin Qiu hasn't written that part of the story yet, and no one knows how their paths crossed.
Wendy, sensing that Xing Qiu didn't want to reveal his identity, quickly changed her tune: "Oh, upon closer inspection, you're actually a fan of Teacher Zhenyu's books."
Now things are really complicated. Not only do two gods have to put on a show, but Xingqiu also has to play a different role.
Wendy praised Xingqiu twice, and Xingqiu returned the compliment.
Whether or not Wendy can get away with it, after exchanging compliments with Hu Tao and Xing Qiu, it's finally Zhong Li's turn.
In the illustration, the two are gazing at each other affectionately, with Wendy looking at Zhongli with a big smile.
[Zhong Li: "So, this person is an acquaintance of Young Master Xing Qiu?"]
The readers derive a little pleasure from watching the two old men pretend not to know each other.
[Traveler: "He's also my old friend."]
Oh, my dear old friend, I knew it was you! The smell of alcohol in the wind is as pungent as the rotten cheese that Granny Anna next door put out.
Wendy responded to the traveler with a cheerful "Yes! And Xiao should recognize me too, we just chatted a while ago."
[Xiao: "...Yes, yes."]
That makes sense; are i people destined to be e people's playthings?
Readers also realized that this was essentially a "Hu Family Banquet" for Xiao Special Attack.
The big bird is an outgoing introvert, while the little bird is an introverted autistic introvert.
Xiao hadn't expected Wendy to suddenly tag him, so he could only go along with Wendy's words and say that he had happened to meet this...this...Imperial Physician Wendy when he was suppressing evil spirits!
If someone can help 'cure illnesses,' how can they not be considered a doctor?
Well, actually, after talking about the word "Xiao" for so long, we still couldn't come up with a coherent story.
Seeing that Xiao was stuck and couldn't come up with anything, Wendy said, "Hmm? You've already forgotten after just a few days? Your profession is 'Bard'!"
His profession is a bard, and he also serves as the wind god.
As a bard, Wendy is a highly charismatic character, and her persuasion assessment was passed with ease, successfully fooling the four little ones.
Through their conversation, the Traveler and Zhongli finally understood what was going on. Xiao had mentioned earlier that an old friend's help was referring to Wendy.
Readers then understood what was going on: Wendy had been selling her way up, meaning she had been busking.
It's probably because Dvorak kept offering Wendy alcohol along the way, and he came over because he smelled the alcohol.
[Xiao: "At that time, the bard was playing music on Dihua Isle. The music... was melodious and pleasant, calming the mind. I... couldn't help but listen for a while longer."]
He spoke haltingly, probably making things up as he spoke.
However, it wasn't all made up, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken so fluently.
Readers then remembered the comic strip from Xiao's story that seemed to feature Wendy. So it was from this time of year? The foreshadowing was planted way too far in the past!
[Zhongli: "I am Zhongli, currently working at the Hall of Rebirth. It's a pleasure to meet you, my new friend."] (Emphasis on setting)
The way the two old guys looked at each other at this moment was very much like V reincarnated as new characters after graduating and talking to each other about their new settings.
[Hu Tao: "Yes, yes, I'm his boss. If you have any complaints about the guest employee's work, you can tell me!"]
D'Artagnan: I have a problem.
Pantalone: I have one too.
Unfortunately, Hu Tao didn't care about their dissatisfaction at all.
Readers also wanted to complain: I'm reporting you, your guest servant is slacking off! You can't even find sesame oil, and the bamboo shoots are all dug up by travelers.
Wendy: "Oh? Hmm, no wonder. Only a smart and reliable boss like that can recruit subordinates who look so capable!"
When Wendy said this, she emphasized the word "appears".
[Hu Tao walked to Zhong Li's side: "My guest advisor is truly remarkable. He is knowledgeable in astronomy and geography, and knows everything that has happened throughout history."]
"Sometimes, seeing how mature he sounds, I even wonder if he's some kind of immortal traveling incognito!"
【elf:"......"】
Guess what? AUV, you were absolutely right!
Readers also found Xiao's embarrassed state quite amusing.
In an illustration, Walnut suddenly leans close to Xiao, looking directly at him, and says:
"Hey, Great Sage, you're an immortal, so tell me, is that even possible?"
Xiao: "I..."
How could I possibly say that?
"...I'm sorry, I'm only skilled in demon-slaying, and my knowledge is limited; I've never heard of such a thing..."
The translation is: I am a military general, and I am not good with words.
Paimon: "But Xiao, I think you're very cultured and know a lot..."
The Traveler winks at Paimon and says in team voice chat: (Paimon, act it out.)
Paimon was initially puzzled: "Huh?"
