Walnut used me to boost her sales performance.

"Boss, one mousse cake, please!"

Jiang Bai waved and ordered another dessert from the owner.

While eating, Keli quickly forgot about the unpleasant topic after Jiang Bai agreed to accompany her to get fried fish.

"Fried fish! Fried fish!"

Klee strode out of Mondstadt with her head held high. When she saw the guards at the city gate looking over, Jiang Bai quickly covered Klee's mouth.

"Keep your voice down, Klee. You don't want to get locked up by Jean, do you?"

Klee blinked and covered her mouth.

Yes, we have to fry the fish secretly, without letting Commander Qin find out.

Her gaze furtively swept over the two knights guarding the gate, then she grabbed Jiang Bai and ran quickly outside, afraid that they would catch up and capture her.

"Let's go somewhere further away to fry fish, so we don't get caught."

Klee was quite clever when it came to avoiding Jean.

After running for a while, Klee stopped, panting.

It's amazing that she could run so fast while carrying a backpack full of bombs.

"Hehe, this is it! With this big rock blocking the way, we definitely won't be discovered."

Klee pointed proudly to the large rock next to her.

This is a great spot she recently discovered; not only are there lots of fish, but the rocks can also hide her body, ensuring she won't be seen.

However, she overlooked one thing: although she was hidden by the rocks and could not be seen, as long as she threw the bomb into the wine jug, everyone would know it was her from the sound of the explosion.

Jiang Bai didn't remind her of this, thinking that the head of the troupe, Qin, was too busy to have much free time.

"Brother Jiang Bai, I saw a big fish!"

With that, Klee accurately dropped the bomb.

The bomb landed in the water and exploded, instantly cooking the fish that had been jumping around, giving off a smoky aroma.

Keli used her small net to scoop up the fried fish, barely suppressing her drool, and handed it to Jiang Bai.

"Give it to Brother Jiang Bai."

"Thank you, Keli. I won't be polite then." Jiang Bai smiled and accepted the fish that was fried beyond recognition.

He didn't think fish that had been bombed tasted good; it was like plain soup without any seasoning and didn't look appealing at all.

But kids aren't picky about tastes, so if it's fun and delicious, that's enough to make it her favorite thing to do.

As the sun gradually set, Jiang Bai lit a fire and sat in front of it with Ke Li to eat fish.

Holding a grilled fish in her hands, Keli ate with a happy expression.

Seeing Keli eating so heartily, Jiang Bai also felt a strong urge to eat.

Although fish without any seasoning is bland, it has a natural, fresh and tender taste.

"Klee wants to eat..."

After finishing a fish, Klee stared longingly at the fruit wine jar, wanting to fry another one.

"No, you can't. We'll get caught frying fish tonight. If Klee wants more, I have some here."

Jiang Bai cut the fish in half and handed her one half of the fish tail.

Keli shook her head. "If Keli eats, Brother Jiang Bai won't have enough to eat."

“I have other food too.” Jiang Bai took out a pancake.

"Then Klee won't be polite!"

The moonlight was bright, and the breeze in the woods was intoxicating.

Jiang Bai lay on the grass, a blade of grass between his teeth, and looked at the moon with his head as a pillow.

Keli, by the light of the fire, was drawing doodles in her sketchbook with crayons.

Although it was a bit abstract, Jiang Bai could still tell that the painting depicted him.

Klee is drawing a picture of him frying fish together.

Judging from the thickness of this picture book, there are quite a few paintings like this.

"Klee drew a lot of pictures."

"Yes, Klee will draw happy things and then send the drawings to her mother, so that Klee and the drawings can keep her mother company."

"so good……"

The mother-daughter relationship is the envy of many.

Jiang Bai lay back down on the grass, his thoughts drifting away.

How did Ms. Alice raise Klee to be so well-behaved?

Do you have any unique parenting tips?

If I have the chance to meet him, I must ask him for advice.

He felt that he and the head of the hall would find it useful in the future.

"Ache—"

Hu Tao, far away in Liyue, sneezed twice in a row.

"It must be Jiang Bai talking about me..."

Chapter 830 It's really dangerous!

As night deepened, Jiang Bai carried the drowsy Ke Li back to her home.

The warm yellow light from the lights on in Keli's house cast a shadowy figure.

Looking at the figure, Jiang Bai smiled.

It's been quite a while since I last saw Aberdo.

He knocked on the door, and it opened shortly afterward.

Before the door was fully open, Abedo's voice could already be heard.

"Klee, why are you so late?"

Klee rubbed her eyes and yawned widely.

"Brother Abedo..."

"Long time no see, Abedo."

Jiang Bai handed Keli to him and greeted him with a smile.

Abedo smiled when he saw Jiang Bai.

"It has indeed been a while since we last met."

Abedo gently stroked the back of the sleeping Cleo and carried her back to her room to sleep.

Jiang Bai didn't need Abedo to greet him; he walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down.

"Would you like some tea? Black tea or green tea?"

"A cup of black tea, please."

Jiang Bai gently blew on the steaming black tea in his cup and took out the story of the past.

"This is a book I found that records taboos. Would you like to take a look?"

"Oh?"

Abedo, filled with curiosity, prepared to pick up the book and open it, but Jiang Bai pressed the book down on him.

"Let me warn you first, everything recorded in this book is taboo. Once you know it, you will be noticed by the heavens and attract unknown dangers."

Abeldo shook his head, a faint smile on his face.

“If I were afraid of this, I wouldn’t have studied the final task my master gave me.”

He is an artificial human; if the sky had been paying attention, it would have noticed long ago.

According to Aunt Alice, Tenri's condition is not very good.

So, there's no need to worry about these things for now.

As Abedo watched, Jiang Bai told him about his trip to Haiyuan.

Besides this book, the biggest gain from this trip to the abyss was the story of the Abyss Singer.

This lector, who has lived since the time of Canria, answered many of his questions.

Although it's difficult to discern the truth from his words, there is still a considerable amount of useful information in them.

"Regarding Kanria, I remember your master was once Kanria's chief alchemist. Did she tell you anything about this?"

Aberdo tried to recall, then shook his head uncertainly.

He wasn't sure if what his master had mentioned was related to the abyss, as his master's research covered far too many topics.

On life, on consciousness, on the soul, on the body...

He was simply the most successful of his master's works, thus surviving as a human being.

He was very concerned about the last lesson his master gave him: the truth of the world and the meaning of the world.

"...When the eggshell breaks from the outside, it signifies death; when it breaks from the inside, it signifies rebirth... What are your thoughts on this?"

Abedo the Thinker, after a long pause, finally gave Jiang Bai a reply.

"Perhaps, that is indeed the case."

“Aunt Alice writes to me from time to time, so I know more about her. Yuan Shang’s conjecture may be close to the truth.”

Listening to the story told by the person from the abyss in Jiang Bai's words, Abedo gained a completely new direction for this topic.

Is this also the truth of the world? Is the meaning of the world to break free of the eggshell and be reborn?

This direction is more reasonable and accurate than his previous directions.

He was eager to start researching in this direction.

This research is both difficult and challenging.

His first task was to create a miniature Teyvat world and to simulate the unknown dangers that Teyvat would face.

Then, we can explore all the possibilities within it.

Every step in this process is difficult.

To create a miniature model of Teyvat, one must first understand everything about Teyvat throughout its history.

This is not a task that he can complete alone in a short period of time.

But it's okay, it's always good to have a good direction.

"So, what exactly is the crisis Teyvat is facing? Is it the abyss?"

Jiang Bai had never quite understood this problem.

He didn't know much about these things.

He had traveled through the sea of ​​stars, and apart from the desolation and the scarcity of life-bearing planets, he didn't sense anything particularly dangerous.

Perhaps he hadn't been to those truly dangerous places; he had faced several close calls along the way, but it was in Teyvatne that he truly experienced them.

“It’s some kind of cosmic law…” Abedo offered a conjecture.

Teyvat has its own laws, but what about the star systems outside of Teyvat? Do they also have their own laws?

If a Teyvat in its gestation period is unable to break through its own rebirth, it will be devoured by some kind of law.

Jiang Bai scratched his head, "This... I have absolutely no idea about it..."

He had absolutely no idea whether there were laws governing the starry sea, and he hadn't sensed anything about it.

He wasn't a researcher, nor was he particularly perceptive.
