Genshin Impact: A Martial Arts Master's Journey to Teyvat
Chapter 34 Dinner Party
It was not until the evening that Lingkong returned to Liyue.
The soldiers guarding the city ignored him, the patrolling soldiers ignored him, Lingkong also saw the Qianyan Army who was the first to discover him, Lingkong deliberately walked in front of him, and still nothing happened.
Ling Kong was finally completely relieved. It seemed that the Liyue Seven Stars really treated him as nothing.
Lingkong: "That's what I said. How can all the seven stars of Liyue be idiots? There must be a few smart ones."
Ruyi Shenzhu: "I want to meet the Seven Stars of Liyue and ask them how the Rock God died."
Lingkong: "They are important figures in Liyue, and we can't just meet them whenever we want."
Ruyi Shenzhu: "You promised me that you would find out the truth about the fall of the Rock God."
Lingkong: "You can't rush this kind of thing. You have to take it slow."
The young master was entertaining guests in the restaurant when one of his men said, "Young master, Lingkong is back. He is passing by the restaurant."
Young Master: "Oh? Ask him to come up."
The subordinate stopped Ling Kong at the bottom of the restaurant and said, "Mr. Ling Kong, the master wants you to go up and talk."
Lingkong: "Lead the way." He wanted to see what the young master was up to.
After coming up from the air, he found that the young master was talking to a young man in black.
Young Master: "Come, sit down, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Zhongli."
Zhongli: "Mr. Lingkong, the honorable knight, I have long admired you."
Although the young master was slightly curious about the stick floating behind Lingkong, he did not ask much.
Lingkong: "Are Mr. Zhongli and Young Master friends?
Young Master: "Mr. Zhongli is the person I invited to hold the ceremony of sending off the immortals.
You may not know, but I am a loyal fan of Mr. Iwagami. I feel deeply saddened and regretful about his passing, so I found Wangshengtang, hoping that Wangshengtang can hold a funeral for Mr. Iwagami.
It just so happens that Mr. Zhongli from the Wangsheng Hall is well versed in this. I can provide the funds, and Mr. Zhongli will preside over the ceremony of sending off the immortals.”
Lingkong: "Oh, is this against the rules? Does Ningguang know about this?"
Young Master: "Don't worry about this. I have already discussed this with Ningguang, and she has given me full authority to handle this matter."
Lingkong couldn't tell whether Ningguang really trusted him or was just playing along, or both.
He continued, "Does this have anything to do with me?"
Young Master: "Of course, I would also like to ask Brother Ling to help me arrange the ceremony of sending the immortals. Just be Mr. Zhongli's assistant, and you will be paid for it. Brother Ling, can you do me this favor?"
Lingkong smiled and said: "Logically speaking, I should help you once, because you also helped me once. Because of your guidance, I also saw the legendary immortal."
The young master also smiled and said: "I really want to make friends with Brother Ling, and when making friends, you must be sincere.
By the way, Brother Ling, how come you came back so soon? Have you seen the three immortals I mentioned?"
Lingkong: "No, I just met the Great Sage who conquered demons at Wangshu Inn. The immortal said he would go to other immortals to discuss countermeasures."
Young Master: "So that's how it is. No wonder Brother Ling came back so early."
Lingkong: "Did I ruin your plans?"
Young Master: "Haha, how is that possible? I was just talking about this. If Brother Ling were here, he would definitely be able to help."
Lingkong: "I can consider helping you, but I'm just a nobody, I don't know how I can help.
Since Mr. Zhongli is familiar with the ceremony of sending off the immortals, you might as well ask Mr. Zhongli to tell us about the procedures of this ceremony and how I can help.
Before the competition, I would like to learn more about the Wangshengtang organization. "
Zhongli: "The Hall of the Dead is an organization that manages funerals, and its purpose is to help people pass away peacefully."
Lingkong: "Funeral home, got it."
Zhongli: "Although the Rock King is the ancestor of all immortals, he is still an immortal after all. Looking at the history of Liyue for many years, the immortals have left one after another. This is an irreversible trend.
The era of immortals is fading away, and the future belongs to humans.
In previous years, when every immortal passed away, there would be a grand memorial ceremony. This is the tradition of Liyue.
But this time, the Seven Stars had no time to take care of this tradition, which was really embarrassing."
Lingkong: "It's understandable that Qixing has no time to care about other things when facing such a major event as the murder of a god."
Pai Meng: "Yes, the real murderer can still be caught."
Zhongli: "The strange case of murdering a god, the Wangsheng Hall doesn't care about this kind of thing. What the Wangsheng Hall cares about is that the ceremony of inviting the gods is so grand, is there no one to take care of the ceremony of sending the gods away?
Mr. Lingkong, I heard about you from the young master. Since you have some friendship with the God of Wind, could you work with me to prepare a ceremony to bid farewell to the God of Rock?
The ceremony of sending off the immortals requires items such as night stones, ointments, kites, etc. You will know the details later."
Zhongli's deep baritone voice made Lingkong feel trustworthy, but he couldn't tell Zhongli's real age.
Lingkong: "Lord Yanshen is also a god I respect. It is my honor to see him off. I agree to this."
Zhongli: "Okay, let's meet at the entrance of the restaurant tomorrow morning."
Young Master: "Haha, I knew Brother Ling is a warm-hearted person and will definitely help me."
Lingkong: "I don't want to help you. I want to do my last thing for Yan Shen."
The next day, when Lingkong arrived at the hotel entrance, Zhongli was already waiting for him at the door.
He threw the pancake packaging bag and milk tea paper cup into the trash can on the roadside and said, "Mr. Zhongli, good morning, have you eaten yet?"
Pai Meng: "Good morning, Mr. Zhongli." After saying hello, she continued to eat the pancake in her hand.
Zhongli: "Well, good morning. Mr. Lingkong..."
Lingkong: "No, just call me Lingkong, you don't have to be so polite to me."
Zhongli: "Okay, Lingkong, after experiencing the city-state where the gods left, how do you feel about Liyue, the land of gods?"
Lingkong: "Of course Liyue is better. The public security here is so good, the streets are so clean, and there is not even anyone spitting."
Passerby: "Oh, ugh!"
Lingkong: "That person is definitely not from Liyue."
Zhongli: “Well, Liyue’s 3,700-year history is the deepest among the seven kingdoms.
The process of preparing for the ceremony of sending off the immortals will also become a part of your journey and enhance your experience.
Liyue is the most prosperous of the seven kingdoms in the mortal world. In previous years, it was guarded by gods and ruled by seven stars. Therefore, many diplomatic methods of the Fatui cannot be used in Liyue.
Ningguang, one of the Seven Stars, has always been on high alert against the Fatui. Perhaps this is why the Young Master wants the Wangsheng Hall to help. "
Pai Meng: "We are going to hold a ceremony to send off the immortals. What benefits will it bring to you, young master?"
Zhongli: "I don't know, and I don't want to know. To me, the Fatui are just providing financial support. I just hope that Liyue's traditions will not be forgotten.
Well, let's get going. The first step in preparing for the ceremony is to obtain the finest Night Stone of quality worthy of the gods."
