Original God's Dark Priest
Chapter 520: Bullying? Bullying!
In fact, Walnut was worrying too much.
Zhongli's expenses are not very high, if there is only the Hall of Rebirth...
His current habit of spending lavishly was not formed overnight. After all, as the Rock King, he really had no habit of looking at prices before buying things. In fact, he didn't need to buy anything he wanted.
The concept of money has always existed, and it is true that he materialized Mora. However, as the person who created Mora, the number of times he actually used Mora for transactions was very few.
If it weren't for Safir supporting him, he would actually slowly develop the good habit of thriftiness in the days that followed... I hope.
At least not in such a way. That's for sure.
Facing Kurumi's passionate gaze, Saphir felt uncomfortable all over. She coughed lightly and calmly pushed little Paimon forward.
As the Mouth of God, it's time to fulfill your duties.
Little Paimon really lived up to expectations and immediately performed his duties faithfully: "Ahem, let me introduce you, this is Qiliangliang."
Manye and Kurumi already knew each other, so there was no need for introduction.
"Hello, hello, everyone. I wonder what brings you to the Wangsheng Hall today?" Walnut's lively personality does not allow for boring conversations. She just said hello briefly, and then she immediately started to make jokes, "Oh! Could it be that you heard about the event we are holding recently and you are willing to come across the ocean..."
"Ah? No, no, we're just here to show Qiliangliang the way." Little Paimon waved her hands quickly. She knew that if she let Kurumi lead the topic, it would probably go off topic.
When Qiliang Liang saw that she was being mentioned, she got down to business: "You must be Miss Kurumi, the head of the Wangsheng Hall, right? I'm the courier from Inazuma Komagaraya. Here's a package for you. I hope you'll sign for it."
As a veteran courier, Qi Liangliang is of course very skilled in her job. Getting lost is just an accident. At least she will not have any problem signing for the goods.
Taking the package handed over by Qi Liangliang, Hu Tao casually opened it, muttering as she did so: "Hmm... let me see... yes, yes, this is what I want."
After confirming that it was hers, she couldn't help but sigh, "Express delivery is really convenient these days... I don't have to bother Ke Qing with errands anymore."
As soon as these words were spoken, Ying's expression immediately became strange. She glanced at Saphir silently, only to see that she looked normal.
Just kidding, she would not be angry because Zhongli was ordered around by Hutao. That Old Deng should be properly disciplined. During his retirement, he has been either listening to operas or drinking tea all day long, and he is almost rusty.
Hu Tao didn't pay attention to these details. She continued, "Miss Qi Liangliang, can you give anything as a gift? Can you give a living person as a gift? What about someone on the verge of life and death?"
Every time she spoke, she would suddenly move closer to Kirara, which frightened Miss Nekomata so much that she was a little panicked and at a loss: "Eh? This..."
She had never sent such a thing, and even though it was a monster, she was actually very afraid of ghosts. Of course, this ghost did not refer to something like Aradaki Ichito, but souls and ghosts.
"Her tail is standing up." Little Paimon whispered as he looked at Qiliangliang's tail which suddenly stood up and bristled.
Saphir went straight to the point and chopped Hu Tao's head lightly with his hand knife: "Don't bully me."
"Hmm..." After being attacked, Hu Tao covered her Qian Kun Tai Gua hat with her hands, revealing an aggrieved expression. Of course, this expression only lasted for less than a second, and she immediately sighed, "Okay, let's talk about expanding the business next time."
"Next time, Pi Ding." Saphir didn't give her a good face, turned around and pulled Qi Liangliang away. The kitten was so cute, how could he bully her like this?
Qi Liangliang was held by Saphir's hand, and he tried to look back at Kurumi: "Can...can you bother me for a few more seconds and give me a five-star rating?"
"Five stars? How is that enough? This service deserves seven stars no matter how you look at it. No, nine stars!" Hu Tao said seriously. In her opinion, Qi Liangliang, the courier, was really competent and cute. She was willing to give Qi Liangliang the highest evaluation.
Qi Liangliang was immediately flattered: "Five stars are enough, I appreciate your enthusiasm."
After making sure Kurumi was satisfied with his service, Kirara looked at Ying and Manye and the others and said, "Then I'll take my leave first. Thank you for showing me the way."
Ying asked curiously, "Do you always deliver packages like this?"
"That's not necessarily true. Business has been booming recently, and the company has hired a lot of new people. However, I'm usually the one doing the cross-border deliveries. After all, I'm a monster, and my legs and feet are stronger than those of ordinary people." Qiliangliang said, feeling a little proud. She was the most powerful courier in Komagariya.
After hearing this, Little Paimeng thought about it, then smiled and said, "That means we might meet again on the road."
"Well, I'm looking forward to seeing you all again! Er... hopefully not when I'm lost," Qi Liangliang said, wagging his tail sheepishly.
Pulling Saphir's hand and rubbing it on his face, Qi Liangliang once again said goodbye seriously: "I'm leaving first, Teacher Su Jin, remember to come to Inazuma to find me when you have time in the future."
"Go ahead, and be careful on the road." Saphir let go of Qiliangliang.
After thinking for a while, she winked at Ying.
Ying understood immediately, and ran quickly to Qi Liangliang and gave her a certificate to enter the cave.
In the face of Qi Liangliang's puzzled eyes, Ying smiled and said: "This is the cave pass, you can think of it as a key, through which you can enter the Chen Ge Pot.
If you encounter a problem that you can't solve, just use this. You can hide, or you can quickly contact someone who also has this gadget.
Everyone in the lake is a family, and we will help each other when we encounter troubles."
She was not bragging. After all, there were examples of using the Chen Ge Hu to provide assistance from afar, such as the time when Shen He saved Jiu Qi Xing, and the time when Saphir stuffed Nashida in and replaced the prince with a cat in Jingshan Palace.
If the Chen Ge pot is used properly, you can really create a lot of new things.
Qi Liangliang decisively accepted this interesting little gadget and put it away carefully. Then he said goodbye to everyone again and left.
After Qi Liangliang left, Wan Ye brought up the topic with Kurumi: "I just heard that the hall master was reciting poetry here. I wonder why he has so much time to spare?"
"Oh? Manye is so interested in poetry?" Kurumi asked instead of explaining.
Saphir patted Manye on the shoulder and said in agreement: "He is one of the most talented people in Inazuma, the great poet of the Kaedehara family!"
"No, no, no, Lord Safir, you're too kind. I just think about some words occasionally." Wan Ye waved his hands hurriedly. He couldn't deserve Safir's praise.
Hu Tao felt that Safir would not lie in such a place. She looked at Wan Ye and smiled, "Don't be modest. I have seen many people and have a wide range of knowledge. Just by looking at the arc of your sleeves and cape, I know that you are an elegant person."
Little Paimon and Ying both showed strange expressions. Saphir bit his lower lip and tried hard not to laugh.
She really couldn't figure out how the arc of a blown sleeve of a cloak could express this person's attainments in poetry.
This reminded her of a reading comprehension passage in which the author wrote that the curtains were blue, and there was a question afterwards asking what emotion the author expressed here.
She couldn't remember what the answer was, but it definitely wasn't because the author's curtains were originally blue.
Several people were stunned by Hu Tao's praise, but Hu Tao himself was unaware of it. Instead, he continued, "I'm preparing for the upcoming finals. Can you guys give me some advice?"
"Final? Is it the final of the Seven Saints Summoning?" Little Paimeng was extremely curious.
Walnut nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's it!
This time the opponent is no trivial matter. He usually wanders around and blends in with the crowd, but during the competition he bursts out of the ground like a deceptive flower.
I have a feeling that this will be a tough battle that this hall master will rarely encounter."
"Shouldn't we think of a strategy together?" Little Paimon was still confused, "What does this have to do with reciting poetry?"
Walnut put on a mature and steady look: "Well, it's not enough to just have 'skills', you also need 'style'!"
"Ah?" Little Paimeng was confused for a moment. She didn't understand at all.
Walnut knew that the little guy's brain was not that flexible, so she changed her words: "To use an analogy that Paimon can understand... It's not enough for a dish to be delicious, it also has to be presented beautifully! This is called 'a flower blooming on two branches'.
We can't lose in terms of momentum!"
"Why is there another statement like this that sounds like it makes some sense, but also doesn't make any sense..." Little Paimeng frowned even more tightly.
Saphir chuckled and comforted little Paimon, "Just think of it as... appearance. In those picture books or novels, there is always a trash talk session before the fight, which attacks the opponent on a psychological level and is also a test before the official duel.
If we lose this stage, it will have some impact on the subsequent matches.”
Manye nodded as well: "Well, in the face of a life-and-death duel, some warriors would show respect to each other before the fight. Perhaps the two have something in common."
Seeing that both of them understood what she meant, Hu Tao nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, that's it."
She looked at Wan Ye and was a little surprised: "Wan Ye, your comprehension ability is amazing. You can even catch up with Saphir."
Saphir, a terrifying existence at level ten of Taoyu.
"Ha... you're too kind. I just got some advice from Lord Saphir. In my opinion, Master Hu might as well add some expectations for the game, or some words that can shock the opponent, into his slogan." As expected of a serious Man Ye Sang, he has begun to give Hu Tao some advice very seriously.
The more Hu Tao listened, the brighter her eyes became: "Hello! I finally met an expert. How about we play a game right now? It will also help me find some inspiration and warm up.
"Well... although I am willing to accompany you, I have never played in actual combat and I don't have my own deck." Wan Ye felt a little regretful. He really should have put together a deck of his own earlier.
Ying was about to suggest using hers, but Safir stopped her with her hand. Looking at Safir with a puzzled look, Ying heard Safir say with a faint smile on his face, "You remember the help Wan Ye gave you. Next, I will also give you some small help."
As she spoke, she took out her deck of cards and placed them in Wan Ye’s hands: “There is a saying: One force can defeat ten thousand tricks.
Maybe you can understand.”
"Oh! Manye and Kurumi are going to play a game? This is a great opportunity. I also want to watch you play cards! At worst, I can give Manye a intensive training!" Little Paimeng didn't think too much and was looking forward to this game.
Ying, on the other hand, read some ill intention in Saphir's smile. Looking at the deck of cards in Manye's hand, a thought suddenly occurred to her: Could it be... that set?
Wan Ye was very touched. He nodded to Saphir Paimon and said, "Everyone is so kind. I will obey your orders."
Soon, little Paimon introduced the rules of the Seven Saints Summoning to Manye.
"The above are all the rules! I have also taught you all the little tricks I saw from Ying. Can Wan Ye keep up?" Little Paimon was like a qualified teacher, confirming the learning results with his student Wan Ye.
Manye nodded seriously: "Yes, no problem, thank you Mr. Paimon."
This is the first Seven Saints Summons in his life, and he must be prepared.
"Teacher? Hehehehehe...well, not that great." The word "Teacher Paimon" made the little guy shy.
Little Paimon has always been a comedian mascot-like existence, and today he can actually be called a teacher, which is indeed a huge breakthrough.
Seeing that the study had been completed, Kurumi confidently put his hands on his hips and said, "How is it, Manye? Are you confident enough to face a doggerel poet from the alleyway?"
"Well, thank you for your guidance, Master Hu." Wan Ye smiled but was very serious in his heart.
Kurumi was very satisfied with Manye's condition and asked again, "Where's the winning slogan?"
"A slogan?" Although it was he who proposed the idea, Wan Ye had never really thought about it himself.
After a few seconds, an idea suddenly occurred to him: "Well, okay, I've thought about it."
"It's a relief that he could catch up..." Little Paimon was surprised at Wan Ye's quick thinking.
This is not surprising. After all, the little girl's talent is obvious to all. The names and nicknames she gave herself, such as "Bengbeng Little Round Hat" and "Justice Man", are actually names that do not have much connotation.
And asking her to think of a slogan is undoubtedly a big project that must be carefully considered.
And Wan Ye thought it through in just a few seconds, which was indeed a very difficult thing for Paimeng.
"Okay! Please tell us your name!" Hu Tao instantly got into the role, transformed into the defender, and welcomed Wan Ye's challenge.
Little Paimon immediately exclaimed, "Wow, the atmosphere has suddenly become lively!"
"Shh..." Ying made a silencing gesture to Paimon. After all, it was very impolite to talk while others were playing cards.
Wan Ye seemed a little nervous. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly to ease his emotions. "New friendships are made with thin paper, swords and knives are clanging in a small space, and red leaves are burning like smoke. Fengyuan Wan Ye, I want to ask you for advice."
"Hehe~ The weather is nice and the birds are singing. There are six fire dice in total! Hu Tao, the leader of the Wangsheng Hall, is ready to fight!" Hu Tao snorted with a disdainful look.
"Puchi!" Safir couldn't hold it in any longer, and leaned against the wall beside him, bending over with laughter.
Ying was almost choked to death by her saliva. She coughed hard a few times, then became a little exasperated: "This slogan doesn't even make sense..." She really wanted to ask, does this thing really rhyme?
Little Paimeng also covered his mouth and laughed. There was nothing he could do about it. Master Hu’s slogan was too... plain and simple.
Hu Tao didn't care about that. It was just a game of bullying. She took out Mora and threw it. As Mora slowly fell, she turned over her character card. Soon, Mora landed on the table, face up. Hu Tao went first.
She immediately drew two cards: "My turn, start!"
Just when she was about to give Wan Ye a good beating and a shock from the evaporation deck, the next second, a somewhat exasperated voice came out of her mouth:
"Sapphire! Why are there three of your faces on him?"
