The Sword Saint Lady from the original god

"Two bells!"

ding~~

"Three bells!"

ding~~

"Three bells! Send it back to the sky! Fly the kite!!"

Kurumi shouted.

Ying and Eluta on the side also raised their kites. With the help of Paimon and perhaps a little help from Zhongli, seven kites with patterns representing the Seven Gods of the World flew up smoothly.

There was no kite string tied.

Seven kites, led by the first kite representing the god of wind, continue to fly towards the sky.

Soon, the kite disappeared.

Snapped! !

Kurumi clapped his hands again.

"Soul, soul, return to the sky."

"The night mooring scattered light, guiding the netherworld."

"Immortal, immortal, your soul will return to you."

"The ancestors are gone, and the descendants are here to lay the foundation."

Snapped! !

"Three palms together, send the immortal away!"

Hu Tao shouted, leading everyone to bow three times to the altar tablet.

Xingqiu, Chongyun, and Xiangling followed Hu Tao's movements and bowed three times. Qiqi didn't understand what they were doing, but after seeing everyone else's movements, she followed suit, just one beat behind them.

Eluta and Ying did not bow, but stood aside. However, they also clasped their hands together and closed their eyes.

Zhongli looked at the girl with twin ponytails in front of the altar, an expression of unusual satisfaction on his face.

"Hu~~~" Walnut made a sound that seemed to be relaxing.

"Okay~~The fairy farewell ceremony is over~~Now it's our turn!!" Hu Tao shouted, and rushed towards Qi Qi who was standing beside her, hugged Qi Qi directly, and rubbed Qi Qi's face hard.

"I didn't expect you to come, Qiqi. I'm so happy, Hu Tao~~"

Being held tightly by Hu Tao, Qiqi began to struggle, but perhaps because she did not realize that her life was in danger, her struggle was not very strong.

The reason I struggled was simply because I felt the heat, which was not particularly comfortable.

Xingqiu smiled and said to Hu Tao, "I didn't expect that you could be so serious."

Chongyun also felt a little emotional. "I experience the Immortal Invitation Ceremony every year, but this is my first time to experience the Immortal Sending Ceremony. It is really rare."

"Yes, it is indeed a rare experience. It is a good inspiration for my novel. I need to write it down quickly." Xingqiu said, and quickly took out a notebook from behind him.

"After so many years in Liyue, I don't know how many times the Immortal Sending Ceremony has been held. Nowadays, it is becoming less and less. Such opportunities are indeed very rare. My father and eldest brother have never experienced the Immortal Sending Ceremony..." Xingqiu said as he recorded his inspiration.

Chongyun explained, "There is no other way. Although Liyue is a country that walks with gods and has immortals, as time goes by, there are fewer and fewer immortals in Liyue. Every immortal farewell ceremony represents the passing of an immortal."

As a family of demon-subduing, although Chongyun has never seen an immortal, he is more sensitive to immortals than ordinary people.

After hearing Chongyun's words, everyone present showed a heavy expression.

"Okay~~~ Don't talk about such boring things~~~" Walnut said with a smile on her face, "Birth, aging, illness and death are common to all people. Even immortals cannot ignore the words life and death. Life and death are things that all living things will experience. It's just a matter of time."

"This is all perfectly normal."

"I don't know about the other immortals, but as for the Emperor, I think his passing is a good thing."

"After all, the Emperor has been taking care of Liyue like an old father all day long. After thousands of years, he probably has lost all his patience."

"So, it's been nearly four thousand years. Let's let the old man rest for a while. Am I right, Zhongli?"

Hu Tao looked at Zhongli.

Zhongli smiled. "Although the words are a bit rash, the logic is very good."

Hearing Zhongli say this, Hu Tao's smile became even brighter.

"So~~~ the emperor worked hard every year when he was alive. He worked hard for 3,700 years. So after he dies, let him relax."

"And now! In order to make the Emperor relax better! Let's eat the tribute!!"

Kurumi raised Qiqi and suggested happily.

Chapter 109: Eating the Tribute Together

"Xiangling, Xiangling! Hurry up! We have to eat all the tributes here before the Qianyan Army arrives!"

Hu Tao looked at Xiang Ling with shining eyes.

Xiangling looked embarrassed and reluctantly took out a roll of mat and spread it on the ground, obviously preparing to start the meal directly in front of the tablet of Emperor Rock King.

Linglong novel group: 856323613

"Hu Tao, is it really okay for us to do this? Although I don't know much about funeral business, I know that tributes cannot be eaten casually, right? Will we really not suffer retribution?"

Hu Tao had already let Qi Qi go, and was constantly moving the offerings on the altar to the mat.

"It's okay, it's okay. Xiangling, you have to understand that our Wangsheng Hall is professional. Even I, the head of the Wangsheng Hall, don't care, so you don't have to care either."

Hu Tao quickly placed the various tributes that still smelled delicious on the mat. Seeing that Xiangling was still conflicted, Hu Tao pointed at Zhongli who had sat cross-legged and was making tea.

"Xiangling, look, even if I lie to you all the time and you don't believe me, you should believe Zhongli. You see, Zhongli doesn't mind that."

Following where Hu Tao pointed, Zhongli was indeed preparing to make tea, and he looked like he was getting ready to serve the meal.

As Hu Tao's good friend, Xiang Ling has great confidence in Hu Tao in her professional field.

But as a good friend, Xiangling is also worried about whether Hu Tao will play a prank on her in this regard, just as she trusts Hu Tao.

However, Xiangling breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the mature and steady Zhongli Xianren sitting down.

Putting aside Hu Tao for now, she still believed Zhongli's words very much. Since Mr. Zhongli had sat down, there was naturally no problem for her to follow suit.

And there are Eruta, Ying, and Paimon too.

"Nice to meet you. I'm the second young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. Just call me Xingqiu." Xingqiu also sat on the mat.

He greeted Eluta very skillfully.

"Well, hello, I'm Eluta, this is Ying and Paimon, we are travelers from another world." Eluta nodded and responded to Xingqiu.

Chongyun sat down next to Xingqiu. "Hello, I'm Chongyun."

"Hello." Eluta responded with a smile.

"Although I know that some families don't mind eating tributes, I don't know what the meaning of eating tributes is." Xingqiu looked at Hu Tao curiously. "Normally, no one would eat tributes."

Just as Xingqiu said, the tributes were basically left until they were no longer fresh, and then replaced. After the offerings were made, the tributes were eaten directly.

Although I don’t know if there are people who do the same as Hu Tao, but in Xingqiu’s opinion, there should be very few people who do this.

Chongyun also nodded and said, "Yes, the tributes offered by my family were all thrown away in the end."

After hearing what the two said, Xiangling understood something and muttered with some dissatisfaction.

"It's a tribute, but to just waste the food like that..."

"Um... sorry..." Chongyun scratched his head a little embarrassedly after hearing Xiangling's mumbling. "If eating the offerings has any special meaning, then the offerings on my altar will be handed over to the servants in the future..."

Chongyun could only say this, hoping that Xiangling would understand.

"No... I'm not unhappy, I just instinctively hate wasting food... and I'm not qualified to say anything." Xiang Ling shook her head. She really had no right to say that people were wasteful, because when she heard Hu Tao talk about eating the tribute, she was also a little worried.

Although when she was young, she also had the experience of eating offerings on the altar. . .

Walnut smiled and said, "Okay~~ There's nothing to worry about. Eating tributes is nothing, it's just that people think that tributes are tainted with bad things, so they don't want to eat them. Or they think that eating tributes will anger the fairies, so they dare not eat them."

"However, sacrifice is just a formality after all."

"There are immortals in Liyue. You don't have to eat the offerings from them. If the immortals in Liyue are willing to accept the sacrifice, they will eat the offerings themselves."

"But for the deceased ancestors, they naturally cannot eat the tributes offered by their descendants. So if these tributes are not eaten, they will inevitably be wasted in the end."

"Besides, isn't it a good thing to eat the tribute? Even if the ancestors have passed away, the living relatives can still eat at the same table with them."

"Although we are separated by the Yin and Yang, eating from the same table can at least allow future generations to remember our ancestors, right?"

Hu Tao said this with a smile, then quickly took action, served herself a bowl of rice, and started eating.

Looking at Hu Tao's actions and listening to her words, everyone smiled.

Eluta also started to take action. Compared with the taboos of others, Eluta did not have the idea that eating tributes was wrong.

In the world of Eluta, things like eating tributes have different concepts depending on local customs.

"In my world, due to differences in local regions, customs vary from place to place. Although eating tributes is considered unlucky in some places, there are still many places that have the habit of eating tributes."

Eluta told what he knew. As an orphan, Eluta had never experienced anything like sacrificial ceremonies, nor had he ever eaten offerings.

Eluta only knew about eating tributes. This was the first time for Eluta to eat the tributes from the Rock King.

"In places where people eat offerings, eating the offerings made to the gods after the sacrifice is complete is considered to be blessed by the gods."

"The same goes for offerings to ancestors. At the same time, whoever eats the offerings the fastest and the most will be considered to be favored by the ancestors and receive their protection."

"That's what they mean by 'the heart is known by the gods, and offered to the people to eat'."

Eluta spoke lightly about the customs that she knew.

Kurumi listened to Eluta's words with a look of surprise in her eyes.

"I didn't expect that in your world, Eluta, there is such a custom!"

"Right! That's how it should be. How can it be unlucky to eat offerings? They are clearly offerings to the immortals and ancestors, how can it be unlucky?"

"If it's unlucky, then doesn't that mean our ancestors and immortals are unlucky?"

"So, everyone, hurry up and eat. Eluta has said that the child who eats the most and the fastest will receive the protection of the ancestors! In other words, they can receive the protection of the Emperor! Let's compete to see who can eat the most!!"

Walnut said happily, and then began to eat voraciously, as if he wanted to eat up all the shelter.

After hearing what Eluta said, Xingqiu and Chongyun were no longer so concerned about eating the tribute. However, after seeing Hutao's look, they looked at each other and quickly started to grab the food.

Zhongli was standing aside, drinking tea with a smile on his face, his lips moving slightly.

Eluta seemed to have vaguely heard someone say, "It's my treat today, eat whatever you want."

Chapter 110: More and more people came

Although Eluta's identity as a consultant was not directly spread in Liyue, he had come to Yujingtai several times.

Among the Qianyan soldiers on duty at Yujingtai, only a few know Eluta's identity.

At this time, Eluta and others were eating the tribute from the Rock King.

to be honest..

This was difficult to accept for the Qianyan Army, because this kind of thing was indeed extremely disrespectful to them.

Originally, they were prepared to step in to stop it.

But when they saw the people eating the offerings over there, they didn’t dare to go over there.

Look at the people here, Eluta, who is obviously of a very noble status, and her travel companion and mascot.

The second son of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce and the eldest son of a demon-conquering family.

The master and guest of the Wangsheng Hall.

Only the young chef of Wanmintang's family has a slightly lower status, but even Xiangling has a master whom they cannot afford to offend.

As for the girl who was picking herbs from Bubulu, it was obvious that she was lured out by the master of the Wangsheng Hall.

It is said that Doctor Baizhu of Bulu has put Hutao on the blacklist because he often seduced the little girl.

Looking carefully, among the people who were eating the tribute at this time, only the head of the Wangsheng Hall who had just held the ceremony of sending off the immortals seriously was the one they could offend.

After all, because of the style of the head of the Wangsheng Hall, they are quite familiar with Hu Tao.

Because people often come to complain about Walnut, at that time they can expel Walnut without any care.
