Original God's Dark Priest

"Chen Yu Valley is a relatively legendary area in Liyue. Rumor has it that the anecdotes about immortals here are not inferior to those in Jue Yunjian. Many people who visit immortals and seek Taoism will choose to come to Qiaoying Village, but I don't know if they will end up here. You get what you want.”

Along the way, Xingqiu seemed to not want Safiel to get bored, and would tell her some stories about Shen Yugu from time to time.

Safire listened quietly and did not comment.

Xingqiu occasionally glanced at the girl next to him and found that she always had a cold and expressionless face. He thought of Safire as someone with an indifferent temperament and was difficult to get along with.

In his opinion, Safir had never shown any expression during the time they had been together. Whether it was the first meeting or listening to the interesting stories he told, the girl was calm as if nothing could cause her to have emotional fluctuations.

Little did he know that Safir had loved to smile before, but since she left Aru, she never showed a happy expression again.

Feeling Xingqiu's hesitation, Safire thought for a moment and said, "The story you told is very interesting, but this Shen Yu Valley reminds me of some bad memories, so don't take it to heart."

"Oh, it's okay. Speaking of which, Teacher Su Jin is also from Liyue. I don't know why he joined the Fools?" Xingqiu asked cautiously.

Safire's eyes flickered and he was silent for a few seconds before replying: "The position is not absolute. If you really want to say it, it's probably because you have no choice."

"Don't you have a choice?" Xingqiu thought.

Safire seems to be about the same age as him. If the other party has been joining the Fools for a long time, it means that she has left Liyue when she was very young. A child, she has tried her best just to survive. Where is there any choice?

Safir didn't know what he was thinking of. Seeing that he didn't ask any more questions, she was happy to be quiet. After a while, a building came into her eyes: "We're here."

Lao Lutou is very anxious these days. The tea that Qiaoyingzhuang is proud of has lost its previous clear taste for some reason, and has also taken on a hint of bitterness. Although it is still edible as tea, it has long lost its past flavor. Tea is bound to cause dissatisfaction from other merchants.

In recent days, many merchants who have cooperated with Qiao Yingzhuang have expressed dissatisfaction and questioned them for shoddy goods. As a tea farmer in Qiaoyingzhuang, Lao Lutou was worried, but he had no solution. He could only wait anxiously for someone who could solve the problem to appear.

In his impression, among the merchants that cooperated with Qiao Yingzhuang, Feiyun Chamber of Commerce was relatively capable, especially the second young master of that chamber of commerce. It was rumored that he was a powerful person and he should be able to solve the current predicament.

The next one is the Yanshang Tea House. Because every time the people who come to buy tea at the Yanshang Tea House are the hidden mirror ladies, their temperament also awes the simple villagers here. It is undoubtedly easy for the hidden mirror ladies to have a certain demeanor in their movements. Make others feel good about you.

Although there were some bad rumors about the Yanshang Tea Room, Old Lutou didn't care about these. He knew that the owner of the Yanshang Tea Room was also capable. It would be great if that person could make a special trip for this matter.

In Lao Lutou's opinion, the Yanshang Teahouse made a living from tea, and the owner would not just watch the decline of Qiaoyingzhuang, otherwise the business would not be possible.

Just when his mind was confused and he was thinking wildly, two figures, a man and a woman, slowly approached.

Looking at their appearance, they were well-dressed and had an extraordinary temperament. They almost looked like city dwellers on their faces. This made Old Lutou's eyes suddenly light up, and he thought they were here to solve the problem. people.

It has to be said that he missed the mark because the boys and girls walking towards him were Safire and Xingqiu who had traveled all the way from Liyue Port to Qiaoying Village.

With the blessing of Safier's holy wings and divine teachings, it took them three days to travel across mountains and rivers to reach Qiaoying Village. There were only four days left before the start of the Zhuyue Festival. Time was running out, and Safiel just wanted to Solve the problem quickly and rush back.

"There are only four days left for us, so we have to move faster." Safire said, walking faster.

Xingqiu was stunned for a moment, then he hesitated and asked, "I thought there was only one day left, and it would take three days to go back, right?"

Safire paused, looked back at Xingqiu, and then shook his head: "No, it doesn't take much time to go back, I have my own way."

Her method was to use Ying's Chenge Pot to enter from Qiaoyingzhuang, and then use the Dongtian Pass ultimatum to appear next to Ying. In that case, they could return to Liyue Port in an instant.

In fact, if Xingqiu had not been brought along, Safire could have used the mark left here before to arrive in an instant, but since Xingqiu wanted to come with her, she didn't mind bringing him along, even though it cost a lot. time, but she didn't care.

Seeing that she had no intention of explaining, Xingqiu didn't ask any further questions. Everyone has their own secrets, and it would be rude to inquire further.

"You two, come here, come here!" Just as the two of them were walking slowly along the path of Qiaoying Village, an old voice suddenly came.

The two of them looked in the direction of the sound, and saw an old, hunchbacked old man standing on the roadside greeting them.

It's always good to have someone to talk to. You might be able to get some news from this little old man. Safiir and Xingqiu walked over. They were in a similar state to Ying and little Paimon. Xingqiu became Safi. Your mouth is for you.

He stepped forward and asked: "Old sir, do you have anything to do with us?"

Old Lutou looked at the two of them again, and then said: "You two... are the ladies from the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce? That's strange, all I have heard are rumors about the young master..."

"I am not the lady of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, this is the second lady of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce." Safire said calmly with no expression on his face.

When Xingqiu heard this, he immediately looked at Safire who looked calm in surprise, and wanted to complain endlessly in his heart.

Your boy looks so gentle and quiet, but he is such a bad-tempered guy? I misjudged you, Teacher Su Jin!

But he didn't say what he was thinking, he just smiled awkwardly: "Well... Grandpa, don't listen to her nonsense. I am from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. I am indeed the second eldest child in the family, but I am definitely not a young lady. Your name is I am Xingqiu, as for this one..."

"I am a servant of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. Just call me Su Jin." Safire said calmly.

"Oh, that's it. I'm glad to meet you. My surname is Lu, and everyone in the village calls me Lao Lutou." Seeing that he had guessed correctly, Lao Lutou couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, "You are here because of the tea." Come on, oh, I’m really sorry, I can’t get rid of the tea leaves now, and the immortals must not be satisfied with this year’s tea ceremony.”

After saying that, he looked at Xingqiu: "I heard that the young master of the Chamber of Commerce is very smart and skillful. I was thinking that since you said that tea is not good, you should come over and have a look. If not, you will send someone here. Just wait here. ”

"Well, Grandpa Lu, you are right. Our Chamber of Commerce attaches great importance to the issue of tea. Some people have said before that this is people in Zhuangzi passing off inferior quality, but I think it should be impossible. After all, it is not like you to smash the sign. I can do it, so I came here to check it out." Xingqiu nodded, he felt that this old Lutou was indeed a sensible person.

Safire walked behind Lao Lutou, where there were some bamboo fences. Looking at the tea leaves in the fence, he must be in the process of drying them.

She randomly picked up a handful of tea leaves that had not yet been dried and observed them carefully. Unfortunately, these tea leaves were of the same quality as those received by the tea room. Even if all the processes are completed, there will still be tea leaves that cannot be sold.

Seeing this question, Safire shook his head helplessly: "These tea leaves are not good either. It seems that something happened that caused the tea leaves here to have problems."

Old Lutou looked back at Safire with a sad expression, but he was relieved in his heart. The girl's words were undoubtedly beneficial to them, which basically ruled out the possibility that the teahouse staff did it deliberately.

Xingqiu naturally trusted Safire, so he did not continue to check, but asked old Lutou: "So Grandpa Lu, what do you think is the cause of the current situation?"

Lao Lu touched his chin and thought for a moment, then said with great certainty: "I feel it should be a soil problem."

"Oh?" Langsaphiel raised his eyebrows at this answer. You must know that there is no real pollution in Teyvat. At least there are no sources of pollution in Liyue other than the residue of the demon god. If there is a problem with the soil, , then maybe something happened in Shen Yugu.

Maybe the seal of a certain demon god has been lifted, or the demon god's residue has spread here.

But if the Demon God's seal is lifted, there is no reason why Zhongli wouldn't know about it, and Mandrill has been keeping an eye on the Demon God's remnants, so there is a high probability that they won't spread here.

Old Lutou didn't know that Safire had thought so much, so he thought to himself: "Yes, I have lived here all my life and have been dealing with tea trees since I was a child. I can detect problems that others cannot see. Bless me, Immortal Fujin, I see, there must be an imbalance of water and soil this year!"

"Who did you just talk about?" Safire suddenly said, startling Xingqiu and Lao Lu.

Lao Lutou did not expect this girl to react so suddenly, but he still repeated: "Fu... Fujin Immortal... is there any problem?"

"..." Safire froze on the spot, muttering to himself, "Fujin... Fujin..."

"What's wrong?" Xingqiu saw that she was a little strange, so he stepped forward and asked with concern.

Safire shook his head: "It sounds so familiar...but I can't remember it. Old man, can you tell me more about this Immortal Floating Brocade?"

Lao Lutou thought she had heard it from somewhere, so he explained: "It sounds familiar to me because I heard it accidentally somewhere. The name of Immortal Fujin is not very famous, even among the locals there are not many People remember.

Since you are interested, let me tell you.

A long, long time ago, Qiaoyingzhuang was just a barren mountain. At that time, there were terrifying demons living in the mountains. We relied on Fujin Immortal to defeat the demons, plant tea trees here, and bring our ancestors to settle here. "

"Plant...tea tree..." Safir suddenly covered her forehead. She felt as if she had forgotten something and couldn't remember it, but the familiar feeling of déjà vu could not be erased.

"Yes, the tea trees all over the mountains and plains are all derived from the one planted by Immortal Fujin. She is the great benefactor of Qiaoying Village!" Old Lutou's eyes showed longing, and he looked really grateful. That immortal named Fu Jin.

Xingqiu looked at Safire, who was covering his head, with a worried look on his face: "Are you okay? I can't remember it anymore. It's just an anecdote."

But Safir shook his head and suddenly said seriously: "I'm going to see Immortal Fu Jin. She might..." Maybe she knows something about that year.

Zhongli and others always kept secrets about the past, and even if Safir pressed, they couldn't find out much. Zhongli always told her not to dwell on the past, but to look forward, and living in the present is the most important thing.

Safire listened, but she had no reason to give up when she had the chance to figure it out.

Old Lutou glanced at the nagging Safiel strangely, thought for a moment, and then said: "The Immortal Fujin has not appeared for a long time. If you can find her, it would be a good way to solve the problem.

If there is a problem with the water and soil, we have no choice but to rely on the immortals. "

Safir nodded slightly when he heard this. Fu Jin, she must find it, not only because of the tea problem, but also the past: "Well, I will do my best."

"Yeah, that's good, that's good. But before that, we'd better take this tea sample and go talk to Lao Luo in detail." Lao Lutou smiled and nodded, although he I don’t think Safire has this ability, but I’m still very happy that she agrees with him.

Lao Luo is the owner here, but his thinking is relatively advanced. Compared with traditional crafts, he prefers more efficient industries. He introduced machines into the tea industry and increased tea production through fertilization, cultivation and machine production.

His ideas conflicted with the conservative faction headed by Lao Lutou. Because of the conflict of ideas, Lao Luo dismissed Lao Lutou's statement. Naturally, he would not agree with the water and soil issues mentioned by Lao Lutou and stubbornly insisted on Think it's for other reasons.

Following Lao Lutou, Safire and Xingqiu soon arrived at Lao Luo's location.

Lao Luo is a middle-aged man with a tall and straight posture and a serious face. He looks calm and confident. His black and white hair shows how old he is, and overall he is a very energetic uncle.

Standing next to him is a young man who looks a little bit ruffian, called A Jin. He must be one of his important subordinates, the kind who always has him by his side. Unfortunately, A Jin looks a bit naive and gives people an impression. Not very smart feeling.

The two of them were currently studying the new tea that had just been made. Safire and his party heard Ajin's regretful voice before they even got closer.

"Uncle Luo, this batch is still not good. The fried aroma is not enough, the hair is dry and brittle, and it cannot be put on the twisting machine. Even if it can pass the second process, the finished product will not look good..." The person who spoke was A Jin. Obviously, This batch of tea is still not up to standard. There was no way he could hide the disappointment in his voice.

Uncle Luo frowned but still refused to give up. He thought for a while and asked: "Are you sure it's not the machine's problem? Or is it because you are unfamiliar with the operation?" He would rather doubt the machine and the operator now than go in the direction Old Lu Tou said. To think.

Ah Jin was completely helpless: "Look what you said, you have been watching from the side, we dare not ignore it..."

After hearing this, Uncle Luo was a little discouraged, but he still snorted forcefully: "Humph, it's really strange..."

As he said this, he saw Lao Lutou, Safire and Xingqiu walking towards him, and said hello: "Oh, you're here, Lao Lutou! Ah Jin, you should go back to work first, and... this…"

Xingqiu immediately took the lead and introduced himself: "My name is Xingqiu. I am the son of the president of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. You can just call me Xingqiu."

After all, when Safire opens his mouth, the second lady's name will be pinned on him again, which he cannot accept.

Safire shrugged and nodded slightly towards Uncle Luo: "Hello, Uncle Luo, we have met before."

"Oh! Miss Su Jin! We meet again. How have you been lately? You haven't been here for a while." Uncle Luo immediately smiled. Safire had changed a lot from before, and he didn't dare to recognize him for a while. .
