People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 191 Yan Feiyaoyao and Grandma Ping on Yujing Terrace
On the west side of Chihuyan, the street leading to the pier.

After hearing the Emperor's request, Lin Feng saw Zhongli's disappointed expression.
After a brief recollection, I knew who I was going to meet on this trip.

——It was Xiangling’s master, known as the Six-Star God of War.
"Ge Chen Lang Shi Zhenjun" left a deep impression on players with his "Ping Granny Shock Wave" in the plot.

Lin Feng, who had learned about the relevant plot in the game, naturally knew that the story of this "Dust Cleansing Bell" was quite tortuous.

This bell can both automatically compose music and play it.

It is not only related to an incident between "Ge Chen Lang Shi Zhen Jun" and the demon "Gui Zhong" during the Demon God War,
After the death of the old friend, it even brought up some memories that the Emperor was not willing to mention.

Therefore, after hearing this request, Lin Feng did not ask why he was asked to go over.
Instead, after simply asking the custodian where he was now,
He took Xiaobai on his shoulder and went out to purchase materials for Sumeru with Zhongli.

The circular platform in front of Yuehai Pavilion at the northeast corner of Yujing Terrace.

On the edge of the flower bed on the west side of the platform,

A long brown wooden table has been placed around this expensive square like it is today since who knows how many years ago.

The long table was covered with an off-white cloth, on which was placed an exquisite teapot and four celadon teacups.
From early morning to dusk, although most of the time there was only one white-haired old woman guarding the table,
She didn't even fiddle with the teapot and teacups on the table, but just admired the ever-blooming neon flowers and glazed lilies.

But even so, the untouched teacups on the table were always magically filled with clear tea.

Not only does the fragrance of tea linger all day long, but in this winter, wisps of white smoke rise continuously from the teacup, day and night.

But even though such a wonderful scene appeared before their eyes, the wealthy businessmen and politicians coming and going seemed to be completely oblivious to it.
——Not only will he not cast a curious look at this white-haired old woman,

Even when it's crowded, I always subconsciously avoid the long table.

As time went by, a rare quiet and pure land appeared in this noisy and prosperous city.

But no matter what kind of place it is, there will always be visitors recognized by it.

Just like at this moment, in front of the long table where an old woman used to stand alone, two other girls appeared.

I saw two little girls, one tall and one short, one dressed in red and one dressed in green, walking together from a distance towards this corner that would be subconsciously ignored by ordinary people.

Even before I got close, the red-haired girl standing in front of me waved her hand and greeted me with a smile:

"Grandma, I'm back with Yaoyao."

"I haven't seen you for a while. How have you been lately, grandma? Did you feel lonely when Yaoyao came home?"

Before the old woman could reply, the young brown-haired girl beside her came running over, shaking the two bells on her head. After she ran to the front, she spoke:
"Master, Yaoyao is back from home~"

"I haven't seen you for a while. Yaoyao has been working hard on her homework."

"Master, how are you doing? Have you eaten well? Are you hungry? Are you cold standing here? Do you want to wear Yaoyao's hat and scarf?"

Yaoyao reminded her master to pay attention to diet and keep warm.
While taking out a hat and scarf from the full bamboo basket behind him, he personally helped Grandma Ping put them on without waiting for the other party to refuse.

Grandma Ping: “.”

Although it is rare for an immortal to have a headache or fever, looking at this little girl who is still very young but cares about him too much like his granddaughter,
Grandma Ping still smiled and said:
"Okay, okay, it's Master's fault for making Yaoyao worry. Master will put it on right away."

Shaking her head, Grandma Ping took a furry coat from the child in front of her, adding another measure of warmth in addition to the scarf and hat that the little guy had already helped put on.

After Yaoyao finally felt relieved, Grandma Ping, who was smiling happily, saw Yanfei approaching and spoke again:
"Yan Fei, are you on holiday again? Sigh, you don't even take a good rest during the holiday, but you like to run to your grandma every day."

"Grandma is not too old to walk. Young people should spend more time on themselves. Why are you wasting your time on an old woman like me?"

"No, no, how can this be considered a waste of time?"

"——In the entire Liyue Harbor, I like listening to your stories the most."

".Like the Dragon Palace in the sea, the Fairy Palace in the clouds, the treasure under the lake. In my opinion, even my father can't compare to the things you know, grandma!"

Yan Fei shook her head, and the two cute little horns beside her head also swayed slightly with the movement.

Seeing that the old man in front of him was in a good mood, Yan Fei continued:
"——And this time I came to see grandma, in addition to sending Yaoyao back, I also have something important to do."

"——Yaoyao and I are very curious about the Xumi God that will be received at the Immortal Invitation Ceremony this time. Grandma, do you have any information about this God?"

When I think of the Emperor's oracle that the Seven Stars announced to the public in the past two days,

Because she works in the legal field, she is very aware of the fact that the Emperor has become increasingly silent over the past few hundred years.
I was very curious about what kind of magic this foreign god had that could make the emperor, who had been away from the political center of Liyue for hundreds of years, break the original strategy of governing the country.
End the plan of gradually withdrawing from state affairs and choose to return to the public eye.

After hearing what Yan Fei said, Grandma Ping was not surprised that the curious little girl in front of her would ask such a question.
But unlike in the past when she seemed to know everything, this time she just shook her head slightly and said:
"Although I would also like to talk to you about this foreign god, except that this god and the emperor hit it off at first sight and it was a pity that they met too late,

Grandma doesn’t know much more than you little guys.”

"——But, at least there is one thing I can be sure of."

"——That is, this god is just like the emperor, a wise man who loves his people like his own children.

His arrival at the invitation of the Emperor must not be a bad thing for Liyue."

Thinking of the news revealed by the two old friends who had quietly come to Liyue Harbor,

She had some understanding of what happened in Xumi, and facing Yan Fei who was full of doubts, she smiled and stated her conclusion.

Before the curious youngster could ask more questions, Grandma Ping continued:
"I know you like to ask questions, and you will definitely not be satisfied with your answer."

"——But in the days ahead, you may have the opportunity to meet this god in person.

When you get the real conclusion with your own eyes, at that time, maybe grandma will ask you and Yaoyao in return. " "."

"Well, let's stop talking about the past for a while, because there are guests coming."

Yan Fei, who was originally planning to ask a few more questions, gave up the idea of ​​digging deeper after hearing this. She turned her head with Yaoyao beside her and looked behind the two of them.

——When they turned around, they both discovered that a handsome black-haired boy with exquisite clothes had quietly approached them at a very close position without them knowing when.

After all, she is an immortal, and her five senses are much sharper than those of ordinary people.
Surprisingly, in the other party's harmonious state as if integrated with nature, no warning information was received at all.

——If this happened in the wild, if an enemy like this came up from behind, you might not have the chance to react at all and would be knocked unconscious and taken away.

Thinking of some vicious kidnapping cases that she had handled before, Yan Fei shuddered.
I decided to go back and follow the method my father left me, and work hard to practice my perception ability. I must never let this situation happen again!
But unlike Yan Fei's reflection on her previous laziness and unwillingness to practice immortal arts,
When Yaoyao turned around and saw this brother who made her feel close at first sight,
Instead, he waved happily, ran over and greeted with a smile:
"Hello, brother. Are you here to see Master as well? My name is Yaoyao. Yaoyao is here to greet you."

The little girl bowed slightly and took out a package from the bamboo basket behind her.
After opening it, there were some steaming rice cakes inside. Yaoyao handed the package forward and said:

"Brother, are you cold? I have some hot snacks in my bag. Would you like to share some? These are made by my parents. Yaoyao has been careful to keep them warm. They are very delicious~"

"."

Lin Feng: “.” What a polite and outgoing girl. She feels like she’s being cared for by her elders at home.

Before they met, the brown-haired girl had an expectant expression on her face, hoping that he would accept it.
Although it is unclear why this little girl, most likely Yaoyao, was so enthusiastic when they first met,

But feeling the other party's pure kindness from the heart, Lin Feng still reached out and took a piece of cake. After taking a bite under the little girl's gaze, he spoke:
"It's delicious, thank you."

After seeing the joy in the other party's golden-red eyes, he looked at the white-haired old woman in front of him and mentioned the purpose of his visit:
"——I was indeed commissioned to come to Yujingtai to find an old friend named 'Grandma Ping' and to borrow the 'Dust-Clearing Bell' for temporary use."

"——I wonder if it's convenient for you now, mother-in-law?"

Grandma Ping, who seemed to have anticipated his arrival, smiled and said:
"Haha, I just stand here all day long, and I don't have much to do. How can this be inconvenient?"

"But you actually want me, the guest, to come to you in person to borrow the "Dust-Clearing Bell" and to organize the ceremony of inviting the immortal yourself."

"This is an outrageous thing, and we, as the hosts, should apologize to you."

When I thought about the fact that the person who was going to receive the immortal in this ceremony had to prepare the welcoming ceremony for himself,

Even Grandma Ping, who is usually a bit casual, feels that young people nowadays are too careless in doing things.

She had already known the identity of the young man from her old friends, and she had no intention of "testing him".

Instead, he simply took out a golden-brown bell with a simple shape and four golden rings from his robe and let it float over from a distance.

The clear sound of the bells echoed on the Yujing Terrace, and for a moment it seemed that even the dust in the air was expelled.

Not surprised by this extraordinary scene, Lin Feng reached out and took the gorgeous bell with a white tail.

After holding it firmly, he clasped his fists slightly, returned the greeting to the very straightforward senior in front of him, and said:
"Anyway, I don't have anything to do these days, so it's actually quite interesting to listen to the story of Liyue while running errands."

"——Thank you for letting me borrow the bell this time, Grandma. I will definitely return it after I use it."

Knowing that this bell was a relic from an old friend and had great significance to Grandma Ping, Lin Feng solemnly promised to return it in good condition after the ceremony.

"Haha, although this bell is an old item, it is not that easy to damage. On the contrary, it is very sturdy. You can use it with confidence, sir."

"——It's a pity that my old friend has such a good memory. If he sees this bell with his own eyes, it will probably remind him of some unhappy things."

"——I hope you can help persuade him and not let him dwell on the trivialities of the past."

Grandma Ping just shook her head when she heard this.

As an immortal who had existed long before Liyue was founded, she naturally knew that her old friend who usually had a calm expression,
When facing many things, he still feels sad and regretful like ordinary people. In fact, he is not as calm as he appears.

So when she lent out the bell, she also made a special request of her own to this guest who could talk to the Emperor as an equal.

"."

". Of course, even as a friend, this is what I should do. Please rest assured, mother-in-law."

"——It's just that I don't have much time right now, otherwise I would like to stay here and talk to you about some trivial matters."

"——Now we can only talk about it next time."

Thinking of the Chen Ge pot in Grandma Ping's hand, which she had been thinking about since she traveled through time,
Lin Feng deeply regretted that he didn't have time to go in and take a look around and study the specific structure.
I can only make an appointment and plan to come back next time to learn the "Dongtian" method that Liyue is unique in the whole of Teyvat.

"Ah? Brother is leaving? Then take Yaoyao's gift with you."

"See you next time~"

The little girl in green saw her master finish talking to the brother.
She considered herself the host, and before Lin Feng left, she enthusiastically stuffed another bag of snacks into his hands as a farewell gift.

Lin Feng, who really couldn't dislike such a sensible little girl, touched the little girl's head before leaving.

He found a few high-quality white jade radishes from his storage space and gave them to Yaoyao, who was very surprised, as a return gift.

I waved to Yanfei, Grandma Ping and Yaoyao, and agreed on the time to meet next time.

Lin Feng, who had finally completed all the preparations for the Immortal Invitation Ceremony,

Carrying the dust-cleansing bell invented by Gui Zhong, he went to the final venue of the ceremony.
He planned to deliver it and then concentrate on preparing for his appearance at the ceremony of inviting the immortals tomorrow.
