Modern Teyvat, bound to the Abyss Spiral

This couple finally got together after going through many hardships, but ultimately due to a trick of fate they had to watch their loved one die before them.

Not to mention Barbara, if Li Qingping knew the plot that the girl had imagined, he would probably be moved to tears.

Beauty, why do you have such a rich imagination?

"How can it be alright? Both elemental forces are fighting!"

Barbara's crying became louder and louder, and it seemed that she was about to burst into tears.

Li Qingping felt that he had to control the temperature for now, so as not to cause a big problem that could not be solved!

"Liyue is full of hidden talents. Sister Lan is already looking for a famous doctor for me. The attending physician also said that I still have a chance of survival, as long as..."

"Just anything!"

Barbara's mind was in a mess. When she heard that Li Qingping still had a chance of survival, she immediately grabbed his hand.

"I'll do anything as long as I can!"

The girl clenched her hands, her big watery eyes filled with anticipation.

She wanted to do something for the person in front of her. It didn't matter if she couldn't do it on her own. She could still ask her sister and Alice for help.

In short...you must save the person in front of you!

"There's no need to be so troublesome. Let's add each other through Fetion first?" Li Qingping asked tentatively.

Scan the QR code to add and confirm. Barbara's hand speed has never been so fast.

“I don’t have many friends…”

"As long as Li Qingping is willing, I will be your friend for life!"

In less than ten minutes, Li Qingping completed the task assigned by Ye Lan.

But obviously this effect is not long-lasting. People just agreed to it on impulse. Li Qingping still needs some glue.

"Since we're friends, I have to think about you. Is there any place in Liyue you particularly want to visit? Let's go check it out together!"

"But your body," Barbara said worriedly.

"Don't let waiting become a regret. This might be the last time of your life!" Li Qingping said seriously, "The doctor said I can hold on for another month. No problem!"

"Okay, there's a place in Liyue that I really want to go to. But I'm in Liyue on official business, and I'm embarrassed to call Kaeya." Barbara lowered her head and tugged at the hem of her clothes.

"Then let's go!"

Li Qingping changed his clothes, put on the earthly lock, left a note, and left the hospital with Barbara who was waiting outside the door.

Not long after the two men left, two guests came here.

“The hospital’s intensive care unit must be a big business!”

"Hey! Zhongli, hurry up! Even though you've secured a big deal for the North Country Bank on behalf of Wangshengtang, we can't let go of these small clients!"

Hu Tao called Zhongli and came to the door of Li Qingping and Shen He's ward.

"Is anyone there? The Hall of Rebirth..."

Before Hu Tao could even open her mouth, Xian Yun, who had rushed over, grabbed her shoulders.

"We are all living people, let's not talk about the business over there."

The idle cloud was like a gust of wind, and Hu Tao didn't even see how she appeared.

"Buy one get one free, are you really not considering it?" Hu Tao smiled awkwardly.

Xianyun took another closer look at Hu Tao and sighed helplessly, "Not considering it."

"Master, you said that customers are the most important, and this is a potential customer."

Zhongli also walked to Hu Tao's side and stopped the girl who was about to say something.

If I continue, it will get a little troublesome!

"Mr. Zhongli, I didn't expect to see you here." Xianyun pushed his glasses, his tone more respectful.

"Long time no see, Xianyun. This is the current head of Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao." Zhongli knew that Xianyun had already seen through Hu Tao's identity, but the necessary procedures still had to be gone through.

"Wangsheng Hall, how many generations has it been passed down now?"

Hearing Xianyun's somewhat sighing tone, Hu Tao frowned.

The woman in front of me doesn’t look very old, why does she speak in such an old-fashioned way?

But Zhongli was right when he said that the world is big, but nothing is bigger than one's own customers, and potential customers are naturally included among them.

"What's your name? I'm Hu Tao, the 177th head of the Wangsheng Hall."

"It's already one hundred and seventy-seven generations." Xianyun looked at Hu Tao again, took a hairpin from her head, and handed it to her.

"My name is Xianyun, and I'm an old friend of your elders. If you carry this thing, it can also ward off evil and bring good luck."

Hu Tao was stunned and asked immediately, "I wonder who in your family you know?"

"The one you don't know." Xianyun handed over the hairpin and said nothing more. He pushed the door and walked into the house.

Before entering the house, Xianyun turned around and said, "He's gone out."

Xianyun closed the door.

"Who?" Walnut was confused.

Zhongli nodded, took the hairpin from Hu Tao's hand, lifted her beret, and pinned it on her hair.

"Since it was a gift from an old friend, you should wear it."

"That's not right, Zhongli. Why do I feel so weird today?"

Kurumi took out her phone and took a picture of the back of her head.

You know what, this hairpin is really pretty!

"Maybe the hall master has been under too much pressure recently. What was the name of the place you mentioned last time? Let's go there?" Zhongli said.

"Really?! I've wanted to go there for a long time, but I've been so busy that I've never had the chance!"

"Master, please lead the way."

"Great!"

……

……

……

Chihuyan, a dilapidated electronics department store.

This department store may be older than Li Qingping, but the moment Barbara pulled him in, he deleted the word "maybe".

The building is not spacious, and thanks to the horizontal development of shops, the already narrow aisles are even more cramped.

Barbara and Li Qingping could barely walk side by side in the aisle. If either of them gained ten pounds, the plan would not work.

The shops on both sides of the aisle are filled with all kinds of second-hand electronic products from the last century. Not only that, the shops are filled with a strong smell of pine, and their main business is to repair and sell products.

"Barbara, are you sure it's here?" Li Qingping asked doubtfully.

"Yes! It's here, that's what it says on the ticket!" Barbara handed over the two tickets in her hand.

Li Qingping took it and looked at it, and found that it was a performance called "Rock Time", and the performance address was indeed in the department store where they were now, but it was on the third underground floor.

After knowing the exact address, he asked several merchants and finally got in before the show started.

There were already dozens of people in the venue before they entered.

The venue was completely dark, with only a few lights on in the center of the stage.

Li Qingping ran out to take a look at the sign outside and found that this place should have been converted from a warehouse.

The venue is not big, with the stage in the middle taking up the largest area of ​​20 square meters. The audience who bought tickets didn’t even have a seat and had to stand.

On the stage was a simple LED sign scrolling the theme of the performance and the names of the performers.

However, a part of the LED screen was dark, so Li Qingping had to work hard to see the name of the leading actor, who was a man named Xin Yan.

As a loyal minister of Liyue, Li Qingping's first reaction when he entered here was whether it was legal or not.

Is the fire protection in this place up to standard?

Unfortunately, this is a severely fire-prone area where anything can catch fire and any fire can take away dozens of lives.

The fire department number that was stuck on the dialing screen had not been dialed out yet. Li Qingping thought about it and decided to wait a little longer.

It’s not too late to take action after watching the performance with Barbara.

"Barbara, what suddenly made you want to watch this? Are you interested in rock music?"

Dozens of people surrounded the stage. The two of them were a step late and could only stand at the back.

Barbara was not tall enough, so Li Qingping found two small cardboard boxes for her, reinforced them with sand inside, and stacked them up for her to stand on.

With the help of the box, Barbara finally saw the neon-lit stage as she wished.

"Because it's all a performance! I want to see what Liyue's idols are like!"

The speakers on the stage had a slight electric sound, but it did not affect the enthusiasm of the audience at all. They cheered and welcomed the arrival of the performance.

Yes, who says underground idols are not idols!

Li Qingping couldn't help but sigh at Barbara's unique hobby, and she was actually interested in this kind of thing.

But as a pastor, is it really appropriate for you to have such a hobby?

"Hurry! Zhongli, the show is about to start!"

At the entrance, Hu Tao dragged Zhong Li into the venue just before the performance began.

Li Qingping turned around and recognized Hu Tao and Zhongli in the dim light.

Hu Tao was still dressed the same way as Li Qingping had seen her at dinner that day, and Zhong Li was also dressed almost the same as when he was appraised at the Yanshang Teahouse that day.

"Mr. Zhongli." Li Qingping greeted him.

"It's you." Zhongli smiled at Li Qingping.

"Wow! Zhongli's friend! It's rare to see someone so young!" Hu Tao's eyes widened as she came closer. "Wait... you're the one!!"

"Thank you for your concern, Master Hu. We met once in Wanmin Hall that day." Li Qingping felt that Hu Tao had probably forgotten that he had once taken over his family's business, so he didn't mention the past.

"No! I think I remember now. You're the kid from the Li family who went to Chihuyan, right?" Hu Tao slapped her forehead. "It should have been twelve years ago. That was the second funeral I presided over!"

"I didn't expect that Master Hu still remembered it."

"Li Qingping!"

"Master Hu has a really good memory."

"No wonder you looked familiar to me when I saw you on the street that day! Hey, if I hadn't been looking for Zhongli, I would definitely have remembered you!"

Zhongli on the side looked away and did not respond.

At that time he was still at sea, causing trouble for others!

"Mr. Zhongli has a wide range of knowledge. He must be busy somewhere." Li Qingping helped Zhongli escape.

He remembered that Zhongli once said that the key fragment to Guizhong was in the hands of his old friend.

But in fact, it was Grandma Ping and Xianyun who held the key.

Being able to become friends with these two people, I think Zhongli... is indeed an outstanding person!

There was no way. Li Qingping looked at Zhongli many times and found nothing wrong, nor could he see any signs of being an immortal in him.

He seems to be just an ordinary person.

"I went to see an old friend I haven't seen in years and was delayed." Zhongli explained.

"You two are so in cahoots!" Hu Tao put her hands on her hips and glanced at the two of them. "He's a guest official at the Wangsheng Hall, so of course I'm going to look for him. Next time, take me to meet that old friend, Zhongli?"

"It's not necessarily a good idea for the Hall Master." Zhongli changed the subject and asked Li Qingping, "Who is this?"

"Barbara from Mond, my new friend."

Li Qingping introduced Barbara to the two people in front of him.

Barbara is a kind person, and because of the performance, she and Walnut have a lot of common topics.
