I'm a male god in Liyue

You were full after only four hours?

Are they that easy to raise?

That female ghost can eat from night until dawn, so her appetite is much bigger than Qiqi's.

Does this mean that she is much stronger than Qi Qi?

Qiqi has a treasure chest, why doesn't she?

Xia Zhi was a little confused about the conditions for the treasure chest to appear. He looked at Hu Tao and asked, "What about Hall Master Hu? Is he going to have lunch with us?"

"Okay."

Hu Tao closed the book in her hand and looked at him expectantly.

"By the way, Mr. Xia, that incense..."

"Don't worry, it's in my room upstairs. I'll go get it for you right away."

"it is good!"

Qiqi hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping herself.

Xia Zhi couldn't help but smile, turned around and went upstairs to her room.

He took out all the incense from his inventory.

A bunch of regular incense, plus the last quarter block of [perfect calming incense].

Without a doubt, what Hu Tao wanted was the calming incense used in the incense burner in the shop today.

Judging from Qiqi's expression just now, she probably wanted it too, but she didn't say it out loud. Maybe she felt that asking for it would make her seem too greedy.

Xia Zhi shook his head, then took out the [Blazing Incense Burner] and made a new [Perfect Calming Incense].

Then, he grabbed a handful from the pile of ordinary incense and mixed in the quarter block of the "Perfect Calming Incense".

Back downstairs, he handed the incense to Hu Tao.

"so much?"

"Anyway, I made them all in my spare time. Since Hall Master Hu likes them, I'll give them to you."

"Mr. Xia is a really good person. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, please feel free to come to me."

"Ah."

Xia Zhi smiled and nodded.

"Let's go have lunch, Miss Qiqi..."

Qiqi looked at him and said softly, "I'll watch the shop for you."

"Alright, then I'll leave it to Miss Qiqi."

Chapter 57 Take good care of him

Hu Tao is a very enthusiastic girl. She talked a lot along the way and always took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi really liked her personality. She didn't have to put in much effort herself; she could see the progress bar on her body constantly increasing. It was much simpler than Qi Qi's.

"Mr. Xia, your shop is doing really well."

“Yesterday we went to Yiyan Temple to pay our respects to Lord Yan. Perhaps it was Lord Yan who blessed us.”

"It's because your juice is so delicious. With juice this good, your shop will probably become famous in Liyue very soon."

That would be best.

"Mr. Xia, why do you seem not particularly happy about the grand opening?"

"I'm still very happy."

"If you're really happy, shouldn't you be all smiles? Just like Zhu Zi."

Zhu Zi immediately turned his head and asked, "Huh? Did I keep smiling like that?"

Hu Tao nodded with a smile: "Yes."

Zhu Zi's face turned red instantly, looking extremely embarrassed. She pursed her lips and turned her head to the other side.

Xia Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Everyone expresses happiness differently. I'd say I'm a rather reserved person."

Hu Tao frowned and said, "Being too reserved isn't good either. Be careful not to become a rigid person like Zhong Li."

Zhongli...

A strange light flashed in Xia Zhi's eyes behind his glasses.

That being was not some rigid person; He was truly indifferent in nature.

However, Hu Tao wasn't wrong. If she became a god in the future and lived a long time, she would probably become as "old-fashioned" as that Zhongli guest.

"Mr. Xia."

"Ok?"

Are you settling into your new house?

"not bad."

"Have you encountered anything strange these past few days?"

"Strange things? No, nothing."

Xia Zhi asked back with a puzzled look.

"I wonder what strange thing Master Hu is referring to?"

Hu Tao glanced at him and waved her hand, "It's nothing, I was just asking casually."

Xia Zhi thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Does Hall Master Hu also believe in those ghost stories?"

"I don't believe it! There are no ghosts in the world! It's all just nonsense."

"Yes, but because of these rumors, I actually saved a lot of money when buying a house."

“Mr. Xia was decisive. If it had been a few days later, the house might have belonged to our Wangshengtang.”

"Does Master Hu also have designs on that house?"

"Hmm, the Rebirth Hall seems a bit crowded now."

Is it crowded?

I don't know if it's because there are too many people or too many ghosts...

Xia Zhi nodded calmly: "Then I'm really lucky."

Hu Tao nodded, then complained, "It's all Zhong Li's fault. He's always wasting money outside. Otherwise, I would have bought it long ago. Houses in Feiyun Slope are expensive to begin with. It's not easy to find a house that's cheap because it's haunted, and it just so happens to be right next door..."

After eavesdropping for a while, Zhu Zi turned around and asked timidly, "Boss, is what you're saying about it being haunted true?"

Xia Zhi casually said, "It's fake. Zhu Zi, you've been staying here for several days now. Our room has been very quiet at night. There's no ghost at all."

Zhu Zi thought about it and realized it was true; the anxiety he had just felt gradually subsided.

However, she still decided to go back tonight and pray earnestly to Lord Narukami.

Upon arriving at Wanmintang, Xiangling was collecting money from customers at a table.

Hu Tao tiptoed up to Xiang Ling and quietly walked behind her, then suddenly reached out and patted her on the back.

"ah!"

Caught off guard, Xiangling was startled and turned around to look at her with annoyance.

"Hu Tao, you're doing this again!"

Hu Tao put her arm around her shoulder and laughed, "Oh, I'll bring you some fermented plum blossoms next time."

Xiangling ignored her and looked to the other side: "Mr. Xia! Ms. Zhu! You've arrived. We had to process the ingredients this morning, and there was too much going on at the shop. We were planning to come to your shop this afternoon."

Xia Zhi smiled and said, "It's alright, you can come whenever you want."

"Yes, please have a seat! I came up with a new recipe last night and would like Mr. Xia to help me taste it!"

"Okay."

Hu Tao was somewhat dissatisfied: "Xiang Ling, why didn't you invite me to try it?"

Xiangling glanced at her and snorted, "You've eaten here so many times, but you've never given me any advice."

Xiangling went into the kitchen, and Hu Tao pouted and sat down.

Xia Zhi looked at her and said, "Hall Master Hu, you and Xiang Ling seem to have a very good relationship."

Hu Tao chuckled and lowered her voice, saying, "Mr. Xia, let me tell you, Xiang Ling is quite a character. She jumps at the slightest touch and is very easy to fool. In our line of work, we love people like that. But we have to be careful not to overdo it, because Guo Ba will stand up for Xiang Ling."

Xiangling is so lucky to have a friend like you.

However, Xia Zhi also discovered something.

Yanfei, Hutao, and Xiangling all possess the God's Eye of Fire, and they are all outgoing, lively, and passionate.
