Original God: After the Abyss Girl picked up Miyoushe
Chapter 149: Xiao's Sea Lantern Tribulation
The topic has shifted from Xiao to the incident in which Xingqiu put the carrots he disliked into Chongyun's bowl.
Xiao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Seraphina eating obediently and occasionally joining in the conversation among the boys and girls.
This little bastard probably won't act up again.
Before Xiao could feel relieved for long, there was a sudden sound of wind outside the door.
"The wind carries the seeds of stories..."
Paimon responded reflexively, "Time makes it sprout. Ah, this voice is so familiar, could it be..."
Sora nodded heavily, "It must be."
Hu Tao invited guests for fun, and she was happy for someone to join in: "If I heard correctly, there is someone outside the door? Please don't just stand there, open the door for them."
"No, excuse me for disturbing you." The door to their private room was blown open by the strong wind.
The strong wind not only blew open their private room, but also the private room opposite. The other party poked his head over here and shrank back after seeing a wind god's eye.
The receptionist in the corridor smiled stiffly as she fixed her hair that was blown by the wind.
The culprit swaggered in: "Hey, you finally invited me in."
Seraphina looked at Xiao with sympathy. She could already guess what was going to happen next.
Paimeng was also very happy that Sheniu could come and lighten the mood: "Oh my god, it's a street singer!"
When Xiao heard Paimon's call, he looked like a puppy about to faint.
Xingqiu knew Wendy: "Ah, it's you."
“Hey, isn’t this Mr. Zhenyu…” Seeing that Hu Tao’s expression was not right, Wendy changed the topic and said, “Are you a fan of Mr. Zhenyu’s books? I met Xingqiu at a light novel book club meeting before. It’s really a pity that we didn’t meet earlier.”
Xingqiu's pen name was not exposed, and he was able to chat normally.
"And this Miss Seraphina, we met before in Mond, and she even gave me a painting." Wendy seemed to have forgotten that he and Zhongli Seraphina had a secret conversation on the roof on the eve of the Lantern Festival, and that he had taken two jars of osmanthus wine brewed by Seraphina from her.
Seraphina also forgot about that conversation and said about Mond: "Teacher Wendy's poems are very touching."
It was you who wrote poems about me and Xiao Keli.
Zhongli also forgot about what happened that night: "So, this person is an acquaintance of Master Xingqiu and my daughter?"
Kong looked at Xiao's itchy appearance and said, "He's also my old friend."
Kong wanted to steer the topic towards Venti and Mond, but Venti would not let Xiao go.
"And Xiao should recognize me too. We just chatted a while ago."
Xiao: “…Yes.” Looking at the Wind God who had been helping him suppress his karma before it was resolved by Seraphina, Xiao was broken.
Kurumi let out a small "wow".
She invited Xiao with the intention of using Zhongli's disguise.
When Wendy started praising Zhongli, Hu Tao jumped out and said, "This guest of mine is really amazing. He knows everything about astronomy and geography, and knows everything about the past and present."
Seraphina thought coldly, no, he didn’t know why date palms were planted in the north of Aru Village and red fruit trees were planted in the south.
"Sometimes when I look at the mature way he speaks, I suspect that he is some kind of immortal who is paying a private visit in disguise."
Seraphina lowered her head and laughed secretly, and Xiao wished he could just disappear.
Hu Tao spared her good sister Seraphina, but did not spare Xiao: "Hey, Great Sage, you are an immortal, so tell me if this is possible?"
Xiao had already cleared his mind: "Sorry, I am only good at subduing demons, I am not very knowledgeable, I have never heard of it."
Seraphina's conscience was aching.
She winked at Kong, asking him to wait until Zhongli and Venti finished praising and insulting each other and then take Xiao out for some fresh air.
Please take my brother away quickly, he is so pitiful.
Even Zhongli felt a little tired under the rapid attacks from Hutao and Venti.
After all, he still had the vest on.
Zhongli was about to end this conversation: "In this situation, please allow me to serve tea instead of wine and toast to everyone."
Wendy followed Zhongli's lead and started to chatter, saying a bunch of random things. In the end, she offered tea: "Then I'll offer a cup to everyone, too. Thank you for the treat."
Xiao, who was offered tea by two gods: "......"
Sora winked at Seraphina and told her to think of a solution.
Seraphina received the signal and stood up with her glass raised. "I have received a lot of care from you all, especially Hu Tao, during my return to Liyue. I would like to offer a toast to everyone. I wish you all a happy Lantern Festival."
Seraphina was disappointed with Xiao for the second time tonight and made faces at him.
If you don't want to be toasted, stand up and toast yourself! Do you understand the drinking culture?
Brother Xiao, please learn from this!
Xiao couldn't learn anything, so Hu Tao raised her glass and said, "Mm-m-m, Happy Lantern Festival."
With Hu Tao's response, everyone raised their glasses together and finally rescued Xiao.
Kong called out softly, "Xiao."
Xiao sat up straight reflexively: "Why are you panicking!?"
"I ate too much, can you go for a walk with me?"
Hearing that he could go out, Xiao finally relaxed: "Okay."
When someone left the table, everyone stood up to relax, and gathered in groups of three or four to chat.
Wendy and Zhongli were exchanging sarcastic remarks, while Serafina and Hu Tao were talking about their archaeological experiences. Soon Serafina's topic attracted Xiangling, Xingqiu, and Chongyun.
Only Paimon wandered around helplessly, like a child abandoned by his parents at the dinner table.
Seeing this, Seraphina waved to Paimon, and Paimon fell into the old witch's trap himself.
Paimon sat in Seraphina's arms, and did not forget to condemn Seraphina: "You guys are really too bad."
Walnut couldn't help but laugh.
Seraphina pinched the flesh on Paimon's waist and said, "I'll give you a chance to reorganize your words, otherwise..."
Her bright golden eyes turned into dark gold that lost its highlights under Paimon's gaze.
Seraphina switched her visual system, replacing human vision with the perspective of the abyss.
Even though he changed back immediately, little Paimon was still startled. He covered his head and jumped behind Zhongli: “Ahhhhhhhhhhh—I don’t dare anymore!”
At this moment, only Emperor Geo can give Paimon a sense of security.
Seraphina didn't want to lose face for the Abyss Cult in front of the God of Wind, so she had to stop.
Seraphina looked at Zhongli innocently: "I really didn't do anything."
"Don't mess around."
"Oh."
The Abyss Cult bullied people in front of the two gods, but the two gods did not intend to pursue the matter and just let it go.
Xiangling was too embarrassed to go over, so she said, "I'd better call Kong and the Demon-Subduing Great Sage back."
"Hurry up and call Kong back!" Yan Shen can no longer be relied on, so he can only rely on Kong.
......
Xiao thought he had overcome the tribulation, but he didn't expect that there was another tribulation waiting for him.
Hu Tao made up an excuse and asked the most distinguished guest present to light the incense burner, which meant endless life, and wished the new year to be a prosperous and ever-changing year.
Seraphina regretted that the void terminal could not connect to Ying, and she had no one to vent her complaints to.
Wendy was the most supportive one and was the first to applaud.
"I see. What a good idea. You are indeed Master Hu." Wendy raised her arm and pointed at Zhongli. "Then when it comes to the most distinguished guest here... it must be Guest Official Zhongli."
His excuse was very strange: "If knowledge is power, then Ke Qing can be said to have infinite power."
Zhongli: "..."
"As for the level of speaking, the great poet is indeed better. I just have a better memory. I admire your eloquence for being able to speak so well of such a mediocre ability."
Zhongli passed the buck to Hu Tao: "Actually, everyone can nominate a candidate. I naturally think that the hall master should be allowed to continue the incense."
"Oh, no, you are just trying to flatter your boss. We said we would invite distinguished guests, how can I, the host, be included?" Hu Tao put her arm around Seraphina's shoulders, "Since Seraphina just returned to Liyue Harbor, why not let Seraphina come to continue the incense."
Seraphina held the golden medal of immunity from death: "I already said that I am the most valuable guest. My father is here, so it is not my turn to go. Please, Master Hu, recommend someone else."
Seraphina, who brought her father to the banquet, was the safest one in this round.
Xiao cannot recognize his boss in public, but Seraphina can recognize her father in public.
The ball returned to Hu Tao's hands and was passed to Xiangling, Xingqiu and Chongyun.
Seraphina and Wendy looked at each other and clapped together.
The ball was finally passed from Chongyun to Xiao: "In terms of seniority, there is only one immortal here, Xiao Shangxian, so it's not my turn."
"I refuse. I am definitely not the most distinguished person here. You can tell that with your eyesight." Xiao also found someone to pass the buck to, "There is someone here who is familiar with everyone."
Kong, who had just rescued Xiao, looked at Xiao as if he was a heartless man.
Kong also learned how to shift the blame, and the ball finally fell into Paimon's hands.
After being praised for a few words, little Paimeng went to refill the incense in a daze. Finally, the ball did not need to be passed anymore.
Xiao can finally rest assured this time.
The Tribulation cannot kill the Rock King, but the Tribulation of the Sea Lantern can kill Xiao.
