Hutao uses me to judge my performance

Several drug boys sighed, and they all accepted this kind of good deed with joy.

"Have you met Mr. Bai? Mr. Bai has gone out to find you."

"No." Qi Qi shook her head.

Thinking of Bai Shu going to the mountains to look for her, but couldn't find her, Qi Qi felt a little guilty.

"I'll go find Mr. Bai." She had just returned and was about to go out.

The drug boy quickly stopped her and pulled her aside.

"Don't, don't, don't! Mr. Bai will come back if he can't find you. You will be in trouble if you go out and get trapped! You just came back, so take a good rest."

"Okay..." Qiqi put down the bamboo basket on her back. She collected a lot of medicine these days, and the bamboo basket was almost full.

It's just that some medicines have completely withered because they were not concocted in the first place.

However, withered medicinal materials do not damage the properties of the medicine, and some medicines themselves need to be dried.

The drug boy took the medicine basket on his back, "Give it to me, you go back and rest..."

As Qi Qi is the youngest drug boy in Bu Bu Lu, everyone still loves her very much.

Although she has a bad memory and always makes mistakes in medicinal materials, she is well-behaved and sensible. Everyone subconsciously takes care of her as their own sister or daughter.

"Yeah." Qiqi adjusted the hat on her head, and went to rest in a good mood.

Chapter 81

Hu Tao and Jiang Bai returned to the Hall of Rebirth, and they both went straight to the bathroom.

It's just that the bathrooms for two people are not together.

As the head of the hall, Walnut naturally has a separate bathroom, while Jiang Bai can only use the public bathroom.

They went out for a total of eight days during this trip, during which they soaked in the water. As people who love cleanliness, they must wash it well as soon as they come back.

Walnut was soaking in the big tub, and the steam of hot water covered her.

"La la la~ wash, wash, take a shower~"

She was humming a strange song, her whole body shrank in the water, only her head was exposed.

With a folded towel on her head, her loose hair floated above the water, obscuring the underwater scene.

She stretched out her two little white hands from the water, put them on the side of the barrel, leaned her back against the wall of the barrel, and let out a long sigh of satisfaction.

"It's so comfortable~"

The little ghost floated out of her body, imitating her movements, grasping the wooden barrel with her short white hands, her two eyes were in a happy figure-eight shape, her mouth was open to reveal cute little tiger teeth, and her tadpole-shaped tail Float on the water.

Walnut grabbed its little tail, then let go.

With a sound of 'Bo', the little ghost flew upside down like a deflated balloon.

Walnut sank his head down for a while and spit bubbles, and then got out of the water for a while, having a great time playing.

After soaking for about half an hour, after taking a shower and changing her clothes, she appeared in Zhongli's courtyard with a windy walk.

"Grandpa, long time no see, do you miss me~"

"Well"

Zhong Li, who was playing with the birds, saw Hu Tao, thought for a while, and finally decided to tell the truth.

"No."

Hu Tao's expression collapsed at once, and he lowered his arms lazily, losing the battle.

"I miss you so much, but you don't miss me at all. It's so sad."

Zhong Li smiled slightly, put the bird on his fingertips into the cage, then sat down at the stone table in the yard, and said in an unhurried manner:

"Is this trip going well?"

Hearing him ask about the itinerary, Hu Tao immediately regained her spirits, sat on the stone bench, dangling her little feet, and patted her chest triumphantly, "Of course, there is nothing that cannot be accomplished by my hall master himself!"

For her who lacked her father's love since she was a child, it is inevitable that she will transfer her father's love to Zhong Li, who has been serving as a guest at the Xiangsheng Hall since she can remember.

Zhongli knows everything, and knows many things that they don't know. Unlike his grandfather, he is very young, just like his father.

When she was a child, Hu Tao often wondered, if her father was still around, would she be as knowledgeable and mature as Zhong Li?

Although Zhongli's identity is a mystery, he has no age change like a fairy, and he is still so young.

But as long as Zhong Li is there, it's like having a solid backing, and there is nothing to be afraid of.

Therefore, once she has achieved something satisfactory, she can't help but want to show it off to him.

Even if you don't get compliments, seeing him listening makes you happy.

Hu Tao put the things he got on the stone table one by one, and introduced them one by one.

"This Kongtong Bailing Jade is Qiqi's thanks to Qiqi. This Sifang Zhenpo was given to him after he completed the mission of Zhenjun Lishan Dieshui."

"Qi Qi? That child that the hall master often catches?" Zhong Li was a little surprised.

According to common sense, if Hutao met that child, he would definitely choose to send her to the afterlife. From the looks of it, something must have happened.

Hu Tao supported her cheeks with her hands, and sighed when she mentioned Qiqi.

"Yes, but I don't plan to catch her anymore. She works so hard to live, so how can I keep wanting to send her to death based on my own will? Just treat her as a special case in the world."

Zhongli poured her a cup of tea, "There is a reason for existence, and the balance of Yin and Yang is not so easily broken."

"Hey, I feel relieved when I hear your words!" Hu Tao shook her legs, and the big rock that had been hanging in her heart fell down.

"I'm really afraid that I will affect the order of life and death and destroy the balance of yin and yang."

"But the child's life experience is also pitiful. I heard it from Zhenjun Lishan Dieshui." Hutao babbled and told Zhongli the story she heard.

Zhongli is an excellent listener, listening quietly and asking a few questions occasionally.

After listening to Hu Tao talk about the ins and outs of Qi Qi becoming a zombie, Zhong Li blew on the hot tea in his cup and sighed:

"Is that so..."

He knew that Liyue had such a zombie, but he didn't go into the cause and effect of it.

After all, there are so many people and things in Liyue, if everyone has to understand and care about everything, then he won't be able to care.

"Now that we have found everything, we can go to Grandma Ping to make the utensil tomorrow, and then we can officially promote it!"

Hu Tao gears up and feels that the future is bright.

"I think we should first go to the Adventurers Association to promote it, do one or two cases first, get this business out there, and become famous! After that, even if we don't promote it, there will be a steady stream of customers coming to us. What do you think?"

Walnut enthusiastically shared his business plan.

"Hall master, you can do as you see."

Zhongli didn't have any suggestions for this, as long as the Hall Master is happy.

While chatting, Hu Tao suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, last time I picked up a big sword in Guyun Pavilion, and it seemed to be of good quality. I sent it to the blacksmith shop and asked them to go through a fire to remove the rust. It's been so long, it should be fine... "

As Hu Tao said, he rushed out in a hurry to get his big sword.

Although it was getting late at this time, it was not yet dark.

There was a constant sound of "bang bang" knocking in the blacksmith shop, and thick black smoke floated down the chimney into the sky.

There are some simple standard weapons outside the blacksmith shop, whether it is swords, swords, halberds or bows and arrows, everything is available.

Hu Tao walked over these weapons directly into the blacksmith's shop, and suddenly, a wave of heat hit his face.

She looked around for a while, and shouted with her hands in the shape of a trumpet, "Lao Zhang, is my sword ready?"

Old Zhang, a blacksmith who was forging iron, heard the voice coming out of the room, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel.

"It's Walnut! Your sword has already been ready."

Lao Zhang picked up the big sword from the weapon rack beside him and handed it to Hu Tao.

The great sword that had been eroded by wind and rain had returned to its original appearance at this moment, and the sharp tip of the sword shone with a cold light.

Hu Tao grasped the hilt of the sword, and the feeling when he grasped the sword for the first time came back.

Probably because the sword has been repaired, the feeling is a little stronger than before.

Walnut caressed the smooth blade. After removing the rusty outer shell, the sword was quite beautiful at the moment.

The whole body of the sword is blue, with dark blue patterns engraved on it.

And it's quite big, wider than a normal big sword by more than a punch.

"This sword is excellent both in terms of material and forging techniques. It is a rare and good sword!" Lao Zhang highly praised it.

Chapter 82 The Sleeping Soul

"I found it on the Guyun Pavilion, and I don't know why such a good sword is stuck in the Guyun Pavilion..."

"It's really a miracle that it was inserted on the Guyun Pavilion." The blacksmith Lao Zhang also expressed his incomprehension.

Such a good sword can be regarded as a family heirloom of ordinary people, but it was placed on the Guyun Pavilion at will, and rust was allowed to cover the sword body.

It's hard to imagine what a luxury this is.

"Molla here, I'll go first."

After paying Mo La, Hu Tao went straight back to the Hall of Rebirth.

She was going to let Zhongli see the mystery of this sword.

"Hey, old man, I'm here again! Did you miss me!"

Hu Tao appeared in the yard out of thin air, Zhong Li was no stranger to this.

"Why are you looking for me?" Zhongli calmly put down the cup.

Hu Tao came over with a smile and sat down on the original seat, "Can't I come to find you if I have nothing to do?"

"The hall master always goes to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing."

Walnut puffed up her cheeks and snorted.

"You are slandering me! I came all the way back to see you right away! You don't even miss me yet."

"Haha." Zhongli smiled and said nothing.

When dealing with Hu Tao, the more she follows her will, the more powerful she will be.

Over the years, he has summed up experience.

Sure enough, he immediately changed the subject, took out a big sword and put it on the table.

"Look, old man, is it what I think."

Hu Tao tapped the stone table with her fingers, and looked at Zhongli with bright eyes.

The little ghost emerged from her body and hugged her head, only the eyes were exposed, blinking and looking at Zhongli.

Zhong Li looked at the big sword in front of him, stretched out his hand to lightly touch the blade, and then nodded.

"Indeed, as Hall Master you think, there is a sleeping soul in this sword."

His fingertips caressed the sword, and golden light slowly emerged from his fingertips, condensing an illusory figure whose specific appearance was not clear. The lower body of this figure was illusory, with his hands open, as if embracing the sky.

"This soul has existed for a long time and is now very weak."

As for the fact that there is a soul in the sword, Walnut felt it from the very beginning, but the feeling was too faint, like an illusion.

Later, after taking the sword from Lao Zhang and starting again, the feeling became a little clearer.

After Zhong Li did this, he directly revealed the soul inside.

Looking at this figure, Hu Tao blinked his eyes and asked in confusion: "Why is his soul in the sword? Logically speaking, wouldn't a person go directly to [Boundary] after death? Wouldn't it be like him?"

[Boundary] refers to the boundary between life and death.

Yang and Yin belong to two worlds, which do not interfere with each other and balance each other.

After Liyue's death, the soul will follow the earth to the boundary, enter the underworld that belongs to the soul, and after a series of purification, reincarnate into a pure and innocent baby.
