Chapter 153
The atmosphere was awkward for a moment.
After all... Wendy seemed to have offended all the old acquaintances she was familiar with.
Thinking about it this way, there really weren't many acquaintances left in Liyue.
She could only look at Kong and Su Bai.
"Su Bai, Kong, you have so many friends~ there should be a way to hear Boss Yun's play~" Wendy asked with a smile.
Su Bai:"……" null:"……"
They were in tacit agreement and didn't speak.
To put it simply, what they were thinking at that moment was:
You two can be aggressive with each other, but don't hurt the innocent.
This made the atmosphere even more awkward.
Fortunately, the awkward atmosphere didn't last long.
With Xiangling's voice:"The food is here~" all the awkwardness came to an abrupt end.
""You guys try the dishes I made~ and give me some suggestions~" Xiangling said happily.
Guoba on the side was also dancing happily.
He made a"lulululu" sound from his mouth.
Guoba's appearance quickly attracted Zhongli's attention.
This is... an old friend?!
Zhongli was stunned and stared at Guoba for a moment.
Perhaps because he noticed Zhongli's gaze, Guoba also looked at Zhongli blankly.
Due to the large number of people, Zhongli couldn't say hello at this time.
So he just nodded slightly.
Guoba smiled, and his eyes narrowed into slits.
This scene happened to be seen by Su Bai.
Su Bai knew clearly.
When Zhongli saw Guoba, he might have remembered the past.
So this time, he didn't quarrel with Wendy anymore, and ate quietly.
As Zhongli started to move, the others also started to eat.
Everyone was obviously very enthusiastic.
After eating, they provided Xiangling with valuable suggestions.
And these were all very useful suggestions.
After giving their opinions, everyone started to chat.
""Xiangling, are you planning to participate in the God of Cooking Competition?" Hu Tao asked.
Xiangling nodded, and then said:"Yes, that's why I asked you to come here to taste the dishes. I want to gather everyone's opinions to make a satisfactory new dish. Thank you very much tonight. Because of your suggestions, I have a good new idea~"
After Xiangling finished speaking, Paimeng asked:"Speaking of which, we heard about the rumors about the Kitchen God when we went to the God of Cooking Competition with Xiangling. Now we are collecting information about the Kitchen God. Do you have any clues?"
"Kitchen God?" Hearing this word, Hu Tao couldn't help but say:"I have heard some rumors, but I really don't know."
Seeing that Hu Tao didn't know, Paimeng quickly looked at Xiao and asked:"Xiao, do you know?"
Xiao didn't know that Guoba was the Kitchen God, so Xiao also shook his head.
Now the people of Liyue present didn't know when they heard it.
So at this time, Paimeng could only ask for help from Zhongli, the most knowledgeable person.
"" Zhongli, aren't you well-versed in history? You must know some clues about the Kitchen God, right?" Paimeng asked hurriedly.
Speaking of this matter... Zhongli was silent for a while.
After a long while, Zhongli finally said,"I have also heard a little about the Kitchen God."
"It is said that the hearth demon Marcosius was born from sparks from the collision of stones. He is in charge of the hearth fire and the people's voice, and is very kind."
"Later it was said that during the Demon War, the Kitchen God dedicated all his power to the earth for the people of Liyue.……"
When Zhongli talked about this, he glanced at Guoba.
It was just a tiny movement, which was hard for ordinary people to notice.
I think Zhongli was like this because he thought of the tragic situation during the Demon God War.
"During the War of Demons and Gods, many immortals and even demons made great contributions to the land of Liyue, and the people of Liyue should remember this."At the end of the sentence, Zhongli couldn't help but sigh. Those who understand
Zhongli's words will naturally understand the sadness.
Just like Xiao.
He didn't say a word at this time, perhaps because he remembered something.
"It seems that the Kitchen God is really great!"After listening to Zhongli's words, Paimeng couldn't help but sighed.
Hu Tao and Xiangling on the side also nodded and sighed.
However, apart from these legends, Zhongli did not provide any other clues.
So Xiangling, Kong and Paimeng planned to go to Grandma Ping to ask again.
After talking about this during the meal, they were almost done.
In addition to preparing the new dishes, Xiangling and others had to go find the Kitchen God and left first.
There was still something to do in the Wangsheng Hall, so Hu Tao naturally had to go back.
When leaving, Hu Tao asked Su Bai:"Do you want to go to the Wangsheng Hall to sit for a while?"This hall master will treat you to a drink~"
Su Bai smiled and shook his head, after all, he still had things to do. Hu Tao left without saying much.
Xiao ran away faster than a rabbit.
He was already very uncomfortable eating this meal. After finally waiting for it to end, Xiao said goodbye to Zhongli very subtly.
Seeing that Zhongli didn't react, he naturally ran away.
In this way, the scene was very good.
Only Zhongli, Wendy and Su Bai were left.
Without outsiders, Zhongli naturally stopped hiding.
With a fake smile, he said to Wendy:"The God of Wind is really free. He ran all the way from Mondstadt to Liyue for this meal. It would be rude if I didn't treat you to a cup of tea as a host. Let's go." Wendy
:"……"Hey?""
Aren't we going to leave right after we finish eating?
Why do we need to go for tea?"
"No, no. I don't like tea~" Wendy laughed and refused
"Let's drink, I have some vintage wine here." Zhongli said with a smile.
Wendy's eyes lit up when she heard there was good wine.
But thinking of how Zhongli had once punched her and sent her back to Mondstadt, Wendy said,"Let's drink.……"
Wendy wanted to refuse. But before she could finish her words, Zhongli
's sharp eyes looked over at her.
"……"
Knowing that he couldn't refuse, he turned to Su Bai and said,"Su Bai, come with me~ It's a good opportunity to drink Morax's aged wine~ It's delicious~"
"No!" Su Bai refused righteously.
Wendy wanted to drag him to ward off disaster, how could Su Bai not know?
Su Bai would not take the blame.
He turned around and wanted to leave.
Unexpectedly, Zhongli spoke at this time:"Ganyu's work should not be finished yet, you should also come and have a drink with us. After all, Wendy is your guest."
Su Bai:"……"
Good fellow.
What Zhongli meant was, none of you can escape. After
Zhongli finished speaking, he walked forward and led the way.
Su Bai and Wendy knew they couldn't escape, so they looked at each other and both followed Zhongli away in disappointment.
When they were behind him, Wendy asked Su Bai:"Su Bai, have you ever fought with Zhongli?"
Su Bai shook his head.
Wendy said anxiously in a low voice:"Then do you know how badly he is worn out now? How much strength does he have left? If he attacks later, you have to help me. The two of us may be able to withstand it together."
Su Bai:"……"
Speechless.
After waiting for a long while, he couldn't help but whispered:"You are the God of Wind after all, can you be a little more impressive?"
Wendy smiled and then said:"But I can't beat him."
Su Bai:"……"
You can't beat him but you still try to trick him. You're really a jerk!
