Modern Teyvat, bound to the Abyss Spiral

"What files did they look at?"

It was Ye Lan who suggested coming to the archives room. She said that these two people had reported to come here to review the archives more than once under the pretext of a mission.

So this time, Li Qingping took the two of them for a walk inside under the pretext of investigating the urgent matter of the alchemy array.

This was actually an open conspiracy. With their level, it was almost impossible for them to be qualified to enter. The fact that they repeatedly applied to Ye Lan to enter the archives showed that they were eager to find something in it.

It is very likely that this is the only chance in their life. They can only gamble not to be discovered, and Li Qingping deliberately gave them enough time.

"What a coincidence! Wu Pei looked at my file, while Shang Hua looked up the immortal talismans."

Ye Lan now understood Li Qingping’s previous ridicule. Both of them actually had problems!

There was a sudden silence on both ends of the phone. Only the other party's breathing could be heard, and the slight sound seemed like rubbing against each other's ears.

"I don't know what's going on with Wu Pei, but Shang Hua should be that guy's man."

"Yuntian? That guy is still alive!"

The year when Nata founded the country was the first year of the Teyvat calendar, and Liyue was established many years earlier than Nata.

If the eighteenth generation blood relative of the first generation of Kaiyang Star were still alive today, he would be at least over a thousand years old, which is not the lifespan of a normal Teyvat person.

"Alive, and still has the leisure to make trouble in Liyue!" Ye Lan's tone changed, as cold as the thousand-year-old cold wind blowing down from the snow-capped mountains on the fifth level of the Abyss.

Li Qingping shivered and felt cold.

"Is that guy no longer a human being?" he asked tentatively.

"There are rumors that he inherited the legacy of a demon god. I think that blind demon god has some blood relationship with turtles, which made him live like a turtle." Ye Lan said sarcastically.

Ye Lan's aggressiveness was a bit too strong, and Li Qingping had to suspect that the demise of Qiong Yu's team was related to the turtle she mentioned.

"Just arrest them directly?" Li Qingping asked again.

"Playing the long game to catch a big turtle!" Ye Lan said firmly, "Even without Shanghua, we can still have Minhua. Liyue has caught traitors before, but they were only temporary solutions. This time, we have to solve the problem once and for all!"

"But why do they want to check the immortal talismans?" Li Qingping glanced at the file that Shang Hua had read again. It was almost pitch black, with only a few words. There was no immortal secret method of Zhenjun Xueyue Zhuyang, and no useful information could be seen at all.

"As long as we know who the culprit is, we can take our time with the rest of the matter." Ye Lan didn't know what the person behind the scenes was planning, but she was confident that she could get to the bottom of it. "Now there's nothing for you to do. Just remember to come to Xinyuexuan for dinner tonight."

Judging from his eager tone, Liyue’s number one intelligence officer is ready to attack with all his strength!

"You're busy, and I just happen to have something to do here."

"Ah."

Li Qingping hung up the phone, put the file back to its original place, said goodbye to Hou Zhang, climbed over the wall, hailed a car and rushed to Yujingtai.

At the junction of Feiyunpo and Yujingtai, at the door of Grandma Ping's house, Li Qingping got out of the car.

Hearing the noise outside, Yaoyao opened the door a crack and looked outside vigilantly with Yuegui.

This is the home of Master Zhenjun of Gechenlang City, where would there be thieves?

Li Qingping didn't know whether to praise Yaoyao for her vigilance or say that she was being unnecessary.

When Yaoyao saw that the person coming was Li Qingping, she immediately pushed the door open and ran into the inner room holding Yuegui, shouting as she ran: "Brother Qingping is back! Master, something bad has happened! Brother Qingping didn't bring his girlfriend back this time. He might have had a mishap!"

When he arrived at the inner room, Li Qingping saw Yaoyao writing beside Grandma Ping.

Grandma Ping smiled and stroked Yaoyao's little head: "Your brother Qingping is amazing. Other people's boats have capsized, but he is fine."

"Grandma, your situation is like the top beam is crooked and the bottom beam is crooked." Li Qingping complained.

"How could a child lie?" Grandma Ping narrowed her eyes and smiled kindly, "Why did you have time to come to my place?"

"I came to see you and do some business at the General Affairs Department on the way."

"That means you have something to ask me."

"You can't hide anything from me. Do you have any impression of Yuntian, the one from Keqing's family?"

Grandma Ping restrained her smile and patted Yaoyao on the shoulder: "Go practice your spear, and then let Brother Qingping teach you a few moves."

Yaoyao happily agreed and ran to the yard to play with a spear that was taller than her.

"Keqing's ancestor Yunyue and I got along well, so I've been keeping an eye on all of her descendants. Keqing is definitely the best, followed by Yuntian."

Do you think so highly of the young lady?

Li Qingping thought about it and it made some sense. Keqing had a thorough understanding of Huishan Hall in less than a month, and had handled most of the government affairs that had been piled up for half a year after the previous director was dismissed. She would probably be able to live a lazy life in a few more days.

Besides, these are the cattle and horses he personally selected, how could they not be amazing!

"Has he joined the Abyss Cult?" Li Qingping asked.

"He's too proud and arrogant to join the Abyss Cult, but secret connections are inevitable."

"The Demon God's inheritance?"

"The Demon God of Life sounds powerful. But the Emperor once said that the power over life and death lies in the hands of a very powerful ruler. The Demon God of Life has almost no power, not to mention the damaged inheritance. At most, it can only extend people's lives." Grandma Ping thought for a moment and continued, "But considering that Yuntian's lifespan is almost over, he will definitely not survive this year."

Li Qingping didn't doubt Grandma Ping. He lowered his head in thought, "That day at the Debo Hotel, the Apostle of the Abyss tried to implant into Keqing's body, was that the fragment of the Demon God of Life?"

Grandma Ping nodded: "Yuntian has done this to every one of his eldest brother's descendants, and most of them failed."

"What about those who have been implanted with demon fragments?"

"No matter how weak the Living Demon God was, his fragments were not something that ordinary people could withstand. Coupled with the Abyss Cult's brutal implantation method, those people basically died young."

"It's really unfortunate for our family to have such a person." Li Qingping sighed, "Grandma, has Yuntian ever learned the immortal talismans?"

"When we were fighting the Abyss in the Rocky Abyss, he asked us for advice. Xieyue felt that Yuntian was a promising talent and considered taking him in as a disciple. He even taught him some introductory talismans."

"Is he also the disciple of Uncle Hou Zhang?"

"Xueyue later felt that Yuntian was too paranoid and could easily go astray, so he gave up the idea. At the time, I even said a few good words on his behalf, but... who knew it would come true." Grandma Ping said this, looking at Yaoyao in the courtyard. "Later, we were very cautious when accepting disciples. Xianyun only accepted Shenhe as a disciple in nearly a thousand years. I chose Yaoyao, but recently found her a junior sister."

"To be favored by you, I think you must have a very good character."

"She's coming here for dinner tonight, so you can meet her if you have time."

Li Qingping smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I have an appointment with Ningguang tonight. As for tomorrow... maybe wait a few days."

I haven't been to Keqing's house yet, and she probably won't be free tomorrow.

"You've only been in office for a few days, but you've already arranged a lot of dinner parties."

"I've made a lot of money from Ningguang, and Ye Lan is also involved, so I have to go."

"Ningguang is a good person. It wouldn't hurt to get to know her better," said Grandma Ping. "Anything else you want to ask about Yuntian? As we get older, we forget some things without being reminded."

"No, thank you grandma."

"Well, go and give Yaoyao some pointers for me."

"no problem!"

Yaoyao had never seen Li Qingping fight, and she thought that the spear skills she had learned and practiced hard could be used to show off in front of Li Qingping.

Li Qingping never takes his martial arts lightly, and he doesn't even hold back against a beauty like Kamisato Ayaka. Since Yaoyao has been calling him brother for so long, he naturally has to treat him strictly.

In less than half an hour.

"Woo woo! Brother Qingping is bullying me!" After repeated failures, Yaoyao finally couldn't bear it anymore and ran to Grandma Ping with red eyes to complain.

"When practicing martial arts, you should know that there are always people better than you. It would be good to let Xiao Qingping rub off your edge." Grandma Ping gave Li Qingping a look, told him to leave, and coaxed Yaoyao by herself.

Li Qingping got the hint, rubbed Yaoyao's face, and quickly ran away.

He walked along the street and came to the office building of Huishan Hall.

Nowadays, everyone in Huishan Hall knows Li Qingping. Even if they have never seen him in person, they have already memorized the photo of this good boss who has helped them improve their performance.

When the guard saw Li Qingping, he straightened his back and greeted him.

"Director, you're back!"

"Come back and see, you are busy, don't bother me."

"understand!"

Li Qingping entered the Huishan Hall, and the subordinates he met stopped to show their respect. This feeling was even more sincere than the last time he took Keqing to visit the office area.

He gritted his teeth and walked from the door to the elevator, heading straight for Keqing's office.

"What brings the director here?" Keqing didn't even raise her head. Beside her was a small stack of documents waiting to be processed. She knew it was Li Qingping just by listening to the footsteps.

"What's wrong with those people in the hall? They're looking at me like I'm worshipping you!" Li Qingping's scalp tingled, but he didn't shy away from it. He took the tea from Keqing's hand and started drinking it.

"..." Keqing stopped writing and fiddled with her hair, trying to cover her slightly hot earlobes.

Why didn't this guy just start drinking without any hesitation?

"My hall leader, don't you see what you did in Liyue last night?"

"That is, we killed the Golden King Beast and stopped the stragglers who were about to assassinate Kamisato Ayaka."

Hearing Li Qingping's nonchalant tone, Keqing was almost speechless.

Listen, is this human language?

"That's right, it just happened! You'd better keep this to me. If anyone else hears it, they might beat you up for being such a show-off!"

"They can't beat me, but it's okay if only you can hear it."

ps

I will update after watching the Gundam movie today, twice a day, before 12 o'clock at night!

Volume 1: 122. Keqing: Uncle Chen, please help me make an appointment at a bridal shop!

Keqing, as described by True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang, is a rare genius in Liyue that only appears once in a thousand years. However, she couldn't even speak a few words in front of Li Qingping.

The young lady... is shy.

"I'm very busy. Don't bother me if you have nothing to do." Keqing suppressed her shyness, stood up, grabbed his arm and pushed him out, "I still have to watch TV with Sister Gui Zhong tonight!"

"Then why don't I help? Two people can always work faster than one."

After hearing this, Keqing paused, her heart was moved!

“It’s not impossible…”

"Go get me a glass of water, not the kind with tea leaves."

"Okay." Keqing responded, but the first thing she did was sneak to the door and lock it.

When she brought the water to the table, she found that Li Qingping had already started working.

Keqing had witnessed Li Qingping's speed in reviewing documents last time, and now his efficiency in reviewing documents was even more astonishing.

Reading ten lines at a glance is considered slow for Li Qingping. He basically reads one page per second. He just flips through the pages and signs his name. If there are minor problems, he will comment on them directly. If there are major problems, he will just take them out and put them aside.

Are you serious about efficiency?

Keqing picked up several approved documents, flipped through them carefully, and found no fault at all.

"I can't tell you're still..."

"I'm very busy, don't bother me if you have nothing to do."

Before Keqing could finish her words, she was interrupted by Li Qingping, who used the same excuse she had given him before.

"Be good and sit over there."

Li Qingping took the time to touch her head and soothed the arrogant cat who was about to get angry.

This attitude is pretty good!

Keqing snorted softly and moved a chair to sit next to Li Qingping.

The two were very close to each other. Keqing leaned on Li Qingping's shoulder and took out her cell phone to read the unread messages.

"The renovation of the house has started today. Uncle Chen will go over to oversee it after he finishes his housework."

"I sent the decoration drawings to Shen He yesterday, and she was very satisfied."

If one wants to occupy a position with Li Qingping, Shen He will always be a huge obstacle that cannot be avoided.

Keqing was struggling with this for a long time recently, trying to find a legitimate reason. After all, it would be too bad to let the news of stealing a man get out, and it was really a very bad idea.

But Old Yuhengxing, as an experienced person, said something to Keqing during her rare return home.
