Hutao uses me to judge my performance

This is a creature that looks like a puppet bear. The orange fur is dotted with black and white patterns. If it doesn't move, it will be regarded as a plush toy for some children.

"Can't I come and play with you if it's okay?"

"Of course, the premise is that you don't scare me." Xiangling pouted, dissatisfied with Hu Tao's behavior of always scaring her.

Hutao put her hands on her hips, pretending to be angry, and the bag containing stuffed plum blossoms was exposed from her wrist.

"Okay! Thank you for being so fussy, I always bring you stuffed plum blossoms every time I come here!"

"Okay, okay, I forgive you!" Xiangling took the stuffed plum blossom and held her hand, and the two girls were smiling after a while.

Seeing the little guy behind Xiangling, Hu Tao stretched out his hand to greet it, "The crispy rice is here too!"

"Lulu~" The cute creature named Guoba waved his hands, his eyes curved.

"I came to see you today on a business matter. I want to visit your master. Can you introduce me?"

Hu Tao was looking forward to it, but saw Xiang Ling's face showing a tangled look, "I have many masters, which one do you want to visit?"

Walnut: Σ(д|||)

Rarely did she not know what to say.

Xiang Ling clasped her fingers, "Master, Second Master, Third Master, Fourth Master"

"Why do you have so many masters?"

"The first master taught me marksmanship, the second master is good at barbecue, the third master is good at stew, and the fourth master is good at making porridge."

"Okay, I get it. The person I want to visit should be Grandma Ping, who should be the Great Master." A drop of sweat flowed from Hu Tao's forehead, interrupting Xiang Ling to continue counting.

Except for this master, everyone else is particularly good at a certain aspect of cooking. How many kinds of dishes has Xiang Ling learned?

"Master? What do you want from my master?" Xiangling was curious.

"I want to make a magic weapon." Hu Tao told her her idea, not afraid of her business secrets being leaked.

After all, even if others know about it, they don't have the ability to compete with Xiangshengtang for the business of collecting bones.

"That's it, then wait a moment, I'll tell my father, and then I'll bring some food to Master."

"By the way, give me a bowl of noodles, I came here to eat specially for you!"

"okay!"

After breakfast, Hu Tao Xiangling and Guoba walked towards Yujing Terrace together, chatting while walking.

"Hu Tao, I heard that there is a person who came back from the dead in your Pastoral Hall. Is it true?"

"Hey, you've heard all about this." Hu Tao held her head in her hands, with a grass root that she got out of nowhere in her mouth, and as she spoke, the grass root in her mouth was bouncing.

"I heard what customers said when I was in the store."

"His name is Jiang Bai. He can't really be said to have come back from the dead. He just entered a state of suspended animation and then woke up. He's not a monster."

"Fake death? Can you still fake death?"

"I don't know about that. He only remembers his name now, and forgets everything else. Maybe this is the sequelae of suspended animation!"

"Ah, that's too pitiful. If I forget about daddy, rice cooker, master, and you, I will definitely be sad."

I don't know which point in her heart it touched, but Xiang Ling felt infinite sympathy for Jiang Bai, whom she had never met before.

"It's an exaggeration, that guy is not like what you said." Hu Tao didn't feel any sadness in Jiang Bai, that guy adapted super fast, and he was very good.

"How could it be possible not to be sad? It must be faking!" Xiangling held the opposite opinion.

"You don't believe it? I'll take you to see him when I'm done!"

"It's settled! What kind of food does he like to eat? I'll make some dishes and bring them over."

Hu Tao showed a malicious smile, "Just be your sweet flower boiled neon dress flower!"

After eating this dish, she had a toothache for three days, adding sugar on top of the sugar, it was so sweet to her.

"Isn't that bad?" Xiangling knew the power of this dish, and seriously suspected that Hu Tao had malicious intentions.

"His taste is always weird, he likes to eat sweet, the sweeter he likes it more." Hu Tao said firmly.

"Okay." Xiangling was doubtful, but still planned to bring a few more dishes to prevent Hutao from cheating him.

Jiang Bai, who just got up, sneezed. He rubbed the goosebumps on his arms, "Did he catch a cold or is someone talking about me?"

He decided to wear an extra layer of clothing so as not to catch a cold.

Yujing Terrace has always been the residence of dignitaries, merchants and celebrities, with high terrain, quiet and elegant environment, and every inch of land is precious.

Hu Tao seldom comes here. People here like to put on airs and think highly of themselves.One must know that even Liyue Qixing's condensed light has never put on a high-ranking posture.

This grandma Ping is able to live in Yujingtai, so she is also a big shot.

"Grandma, I'm coming to see you!"

From a distance, Xiangling saw the old man watering the glass lilies with a shower at the side of the flower bed. She waved vigorously and successfully attracted the old man's attention.

The old man looked like an ordinary old man, with a kind face and a pair of reading glasses on the bridge of his nose.

Seeing Xiangling, she smiled and said: "It's Xiangling, why are you free today?"

She looked at Guoba again, and patted Guoba's head, "There is also Guoba."

"Lulu~" Guoba's eyes were curved, and he obviously liked to see her.

Chapter 19 Do you think this is your world?

"Of course I came to see you!" Xiangling put the food box on the table next to him and opened it, "I brought you the snacks, quickly taste if my craftsmanship has deteriorated!"

Looking at the exquisite lotus flower cakes in the food box, Grandma Ping smiled and said, "No hurry, no hurry."

She looked at Hu Tao behind Xiangling and asked, "Who is this?"

Xiangling pushed Hu Tao to the front, "Master, this is my good friend Hu Tao!"

"Hi, grandma!" Hu Tao greeted very politely, "I am Hu Tao, the seventh-generation head of Hall of Past Life No. 70, and I came to visit you specially."

As she spoke, she put the meeting ceremony she had prepared on the table.

Although she usually has a lot of ghost ideas, likes to scare people, and is always a shopkeeper, she is still very serious when it comes to business.

"The Hall of Rebirth..." Grandma Ping had obviously heard of this place before, as well as the name of Hall Master Hu.

"I wonder how Mr. Zhongli is near?"

"Mr. Zhongli is fine..." Hearing Grandma Ping asking about Zhongli, Hu Tao rolled her eyes.

Could it be that there is a story between Mr. Zhongli and Grandma Ping?Otherwise, why not let her say that he introduced it?

The first thing she thought of was love-hate entanglement, but the age was obviously not right.

Zhong Li is still young, but this Grandma Ping is obviously over fifty years old, with silver hair all over her head.

Zhong Li didn't look like someone who could do such a thing.

"Is Grandma Ping familiar with Mr. Zhongli?" She asked curiously.

"I know..." Grandma Ping smiled kindly, as if she was just asking casually and didn't intend to say more.

"Is Master Hu coming to see me this time for something?" She smiled, obviously seeing Hu Tao's plan.

Now that it was discovered, Hu Tao stopped beating around the bush, and went straight to the point, asking generously: "The thing is like this, I plan to make a magic weapon, and I heard that you can make..."

She gave a general account of the ins and outs of the matter, but omitted Zhong Li.

Grandma Ping still liked this willful little girl, she thought for a while and gave a direct answer, "It's not difficult to make this, but the materials are hard to find... and it would be too wasteful to bind one person to each magic weapon." ..."

After thinking about it, she said again: "How about this, you help me find the materials, and I will only charge you a little manual fee."

Hu Tao's eyes lit up, "Thank you so much!"

She originally thought that this matter would require some twists and turns, and she would have to go several times to find someone who could make this magic weapon, but she didn't want it to be so easy.

Sure enough, it is good to have acquaintances.Add chicken legs to Zhongli tonight!

Grandma Ping made a list for her, and there were more than a dozen hard-to-find artifacts written scattered on it, some of which she had never heard of.

Hu Tao wrinkled her bitter face, it really wasn't that easy...

Grandma Ping smiled and said, "Just come here directly after you find these things."

After bidding farewell to Grandma Ping, Hu Tao took Xiangling back to Wanmin Hall with a sigh.

"It's difficult...it's really difficult..." Where is she going to find these things?

Although it is difficult to find magic crystal mines and top-quality night stones in the market, there are some stocks in the warehouse of Xiangshengtang that Zhongli used to gamble with stones, and it is enough to buy some more.

But she has never heard of such things as firm topaz, black rock sand, Kongtong Bailing jade, and Sifang Zhenpo.

But these unheard things are still the most important...

There is a long way to go to develop this business.

"What's the hurry, this business is not going to be done now, take your time!" Xiangling comforted.

"Lulu~" Guoba also tilted his head.

"That's right..." Hu Tao didn't bother to bother about this anymore, and went to the warehouse to look through it when the time came, and put away the existing materials first, and let people go to the market to collect the ones that weren't there.

There is still a Zhongli at home, if it is impossible to ask him where these things are, she will go outside to look for them, and she will always find them.

"Wait for me. I'll prepare a few dishes and then go to Shengshengtang with you." Xiangling still remembered that she wanted to see Jiang Bai.

Not only out of curiosity, but more out of sympathy for the poor man.

"Okay~" Hu Tao sat on the steps at the door, dragging her cheeks and waiting for her.

In the hall of death.

Jiang Bai, who received Hu Tao's advice, went to visit Zhongli's yard early in the morning.

Hu Tao asked him to ask Zhong Li for more advice, and he had a legitimate reason to harass this gentleman.

Zhongli didn't go out today, but planted flowers in his small courtyard.

Zhongli's small courtyard is very elegant, although it is not big, it is a place with a scene.

All kinds of precious flowers, green plants, and rockeries are harmoniously arranged throughout the small courtyard. The red carp jumps up in the pool, and the splashing water is golden in the sun. The emerald green bamboo grows beside the wall courtyard, which is graceful and graceful. .

Zhongli lives alone in such a well-arranged courtyard, which is enough to show Zhongli's status in the Hall of Rebirth.

Zhong Li was trimming the branches and leaves of the flowers and plants in the yard, and the scissors in his hand cut off a twig from time to time, with an extremely serious expression.

Jiang Bai knocked on the courtyard door, which caught Zhongli's attention.

"Mr. Zhongli, have you had breakfast? I'll bring you breakfast." Jiang Bai raised the food box in his hand and walked in from the courtyard gate.

Even though it's a visit, you have to find a good reason, and the breakfast seems to be very good.

"Not yet, let's join together, little friend."

Zhongli put away the scissors, swept up the dead leaves on the ground, tidied up his clothes, and after washing his hands, he went to the gazebo and sat down.

Looking at Zhongli's flowing movements, Jiang Bai couldn't help sighing in his heart: Pay attention!

Jiang Bai opened the food boxes one by one and took out the food inside.

He went to the kitchen to get this breakfast on purpose. He didn't know what Zhongli liked to eat, so he brought a little of everything, and a jug of sake by the way.

Flower cake, chickpea flower, bright moon egg, lotus cake...

Looking at this early game, Jiang Bai has a new understanding of the economic strength of Xiangshengtang.

If the economic strength is not sufficient, can they afford such a rich breakfast?

Jiang Bai once again lamented that it was a good decision to join the Hall of Rebirth...

"I heard that it was Mr. Zhongli who asked the hall master to bury me, so that I would not be turned into ashes before I woke up... I have no money, and I don't know how to thank you. Don't be offended, sir..."

All the chopsticks and meals on the table have been laid out, just waiting for two people to enjoy.

"Just mentioning it casually, you're welcome." Zhong Li picked up the wine glass on the table and took a sip.

"It's you, how many memories of the past do you still remember?" Zhong Li looked at the young man with white hair and a gentle smile with an inquiring expression.

Jiang Bai scratched his head, "I don't know very well... When I see something, I can instinctively know its function... I can also pick up some common sense of life... But I can't remember anything about my own memory...

"Mr. Bai Shu said it might be a sequela of suspended animation, and I can't figure it out..."
