Explorer of Teyvat

Perhaps out of apology for Wang Daoyi's experiment with the ice mist-mint cake, Xiang Ling readily agreed to Wang Daoyi's request. A bag of nuts that Wang Daoyi brought was made into nut cakes, and he also thoughtfully helped Wang Daoyi pack it into a gift box.

"Zhongli Keqing from the Palace of Purity is a very picky guy. He is not only picky with his words, but he can also pick out my problems to the point. He just tasted the first dish I served him that day [salt and pepper tofu]. After taking one sip, he asked me what kind of salt I used, and then said that he might as well try the sea salt extracted from the shallow sea of ​​Guyunge, its layered texture can give the tofu more umami flavor!"

Mentioning Zhongli, Xiangling was tangled in admiration.

"For this reason, I specially asked Sister Beidou to bring me the sea salt refined from Guyunge Qianhai. After trying it, the taste is really different. Tell me, isn't it amazing?"

Taking the gift box of nut cakes handed over by Xiang Ling, Wang Dao nodded:

"Of course he is great. Mr. Zhongli is the most knowledgeable person I have ever met, so I need to prepare gifts to visit him!"

"I'm leaving now. I may not come over for lunch at noon. I'll come back in the evening! Goodbye, rice dumpling!"

"Okay, brother Daoyi, walk slowly!" "Lu~"

Xiangsheng Hall is located between Chihu Rock and Feiyunpo. It is adjacent to the mountain. In front of the door is a mountain stream. The water from the mountain stream directly flows into Yunlaihai. Looking up from here, you can see the high Yujing Terrace.

The building architecture of the Goshen Hall is actually similar to other buildings in the Gulou District of Feiyunpo. They are all in the same style. There is a big sign with flying dragons and phoenixes hanging at the door, with the three characters "Goshen Hall" written on it.

Although it is located in the two busiest areas of Liyue, Feiyunpo and Chihuyan, the Hall of Purity can still be said to be deserted. Except for the white cat squatting on the stone bench at the door, there are almost no other people except the staff. creature.

According to the customs of Liyue people, most people are not willing to come here when they have nothing to do. After all, the Palace of Purity is a combination of a funeral parlor and a yizhuang. There were rumors of being haunted before, which made outsiders even more reluctant. Close here.

Wang Daoyi had nothing to fear. After all, the game had already explained that there were no ghosts in the Hall of Rebirth, only cute walnuts.

In the Hall of Rebirth

The lovely Hall Master Hu was sitting on an old man's chair bored.

The last time he went to the Adventurers Association to promote the Resurrection Hall adventurer package, he was rejected by Sister Lan, the branch president of the Liyue Adventurers Association. At the same time, Hall Master Hu received a warning from the General Affairs Department.

Recently, Qixing has received a large number of complaints from citizens, saying that the current owner of the Gossip Hall preaches the horror of death and threatens citizens to buy the Gossip Hall package, which has caused a lot of trouble to the citizens.

Although Qixing, as the ruler of Liyue, is very familiar with the business and responsibilities of the Holy Life Hall, Qixing still punished citizens for their complaints.

The lively and lovely Hall Master Hu was grounded. According to the fine issued by the Department of General Affairs, Hu Tao was banned for 7 days and was not allowed to go out on the streets to promote the business of the Hall of Rebirth. All the business of the Hall of Rebirth was currently handed over to other ceremony attendants and guest officials.

Hu Tao, who was confined at home, looked at the door of the Hall of Purity with a dull gaze. The little white cat at the door stretched comfortably, changed its posture, and continued to enjoy the morning sunshine.

Suddenly, Hutao seemed to hear someone calling her.

No, it doesn’t seem like someone actually came to the door!

Shaking his head, Hutao looked at the young man who came to his door in surprise.

"Oh, welcome to the Rebirth Hall. Sir, do you need anything? The Rebirth Hall has a great discount, buy one get one free now!"

Wang Daoyi looked at the girl in front of him who suddenly became very excited, and his expression became a little strange. Although he had long known that Hall Master Hu was very dedicated to promoting the business of the Hall of Rebirth, being promoted in person, and even buying one and getting one free, really made him feel excited. A feeling of breaking through dimensions.

"You're welcome, Hall Master Hu. Your Excellency, Wang Daoyi, I came here today to consult with guest Zhongli on something. I wonder if guest Zhongli is here."

Wang Daoyi raised his hand in return and said the purpose of this gesture.

Hutao was not disappointed when he saw that they were not real customers. After all, in Hutao's eyes, there were only current customers and future customers. After all, Shengshengtang was a monopoly industry in Liyue.

"Zhongli, he went out to promote business in the morning. If you are not in a hurry, you can wait in the Hall of Purity. Zhongli will be back at noon!"

Hutao Meihua turned her eyes and informed Wang Daoyi of Zhongli's whereabouts, and suggested that Wang Daoyi wait in the Hall of Rebirth.

Wang Daoyi didn't think much about it. Rather than looking for Zhongli outside, he was more inclined to wait for Zhongli to come back in the Hall of Rebirth.

"If so, don't bother Hall Master Hu. This is some pastry. Please accept it, Hall Master Hu, and treat it as the cost of your tea!"

Without seeing Zhongli directly, Wang Daoyi couldn't bear to wait at someone's house with a gift box, so he simply handed the gift box to Hu Tao.

Only then did Hutao see Wang Daoyi carrying a gift box.

"Hey, this is Xiangling's gift box!" Hutao looked at the gift box carefully and found that it was different from the usual gift boxes. It had the mark of Wanmin Hall on it.

"Does Hall Master Hu also know Xiang Ling?"

"Of course, Xiangling's cooking is delicious. In my opinion, Liuliting Xinyuexuan is not as good as the boiled fish and shrimp dumplings made by Xiangling. Moreover, Xiangling is so fun. It jumps when you touch it. It's very easy. I was frightened. Those in our industry like this kind of people the most. But you have to be careful, after all, Guo Ba will stand up for Xiang Ling."

Speaking of Xiangling, Hutao showed a happy smile. As the master of the Rebirth Hall, there were not many people who could be friends with her, and Xiangling, who also had the Eyes of the God of Fire, was her best friend among her peers.

Wang Daoyi nodded in agreement. After half a month of contact, Wang Daoyi also felt that Xiang Ling was easily fooled.

In the past half month, Wang Daoyi had told Xiang Ling about his adventure in Mondstadt. Xiang Ling had no doubts and completely believed it.

This lovely girl never seemed to think that anyone would tell lies to her.

The two of them started chatting happily on the topic of Xiang Ling.

As time passed, the two of them became more and more interested in each other as they chatted, and the feeling of unfamiliarity completely disappeared.

Gradually, the topic was no longer limited to the story of Hutao playing tricks on Xiangling and being chased by Guoba. The topic of life, old age, illness and death also appeared between the two.

"Brother Dao Yi, it's so nice to chat with you. Unlike other people, who are always full of fear of death."

When Hu Tao talks about death, he always looks like he doesn't care.

"I am the seventy-seventh generation head of the Rebirth Hall, and my grandfather is the seventy-fifth generation. My first job after taking office was to hold my grandfather's funeral."

Saying that, Hutao glanced at Wang Daoyi, and Wang Daoyi also showed an appropriately surprised expression.

"Isn't it surprising? Oh my, I have been working in this industry for several years without realizing it. Time flies so fast!"

Wang Daoyi looked at Hu Tao and said that there was no sad expression on Hu Tao's face when he talked about organizing a funeral for his grandfather.

Perhaps in this girl's eyes, the definition of death has always been different, or perhaps the girl no longer shows sadness to outsiders.

"I also benefited a lot from talking with the hall master. The hall master's definition of death is refreshing and worth thinking about in detail!"

Wang Daoyi really felt that Hu Tao's definition of death was worthy of his consideration.

Yin and Yang are orderly, fate is unpredictable, and death is unpredictable, but it also has its rules. No matter when, where, or for whatever reason, people should not easily provoke death. Only by knowing it and respecting it can we understand the meaning of life. value!

This is one of Hutao's definitions of death. Hutao believes that people should not escape death or resist death, but should accept it, understand it, and face it, so that they can live better, seize time, and live better.

Wang Daoyi was not a philosopher in his previous life and could not judge whether Hu Tao's views were correct, but he admired Hu Tao's optimistic attitude.
