Hu Tao, who was already quite angry, became even angrier now.
It would be fine if you sent the bill to me when you were at work, but you actually sent it to me today when you took a day off.
This is like taking advantage of yourself!
In order to avoid being discovered by Zhongli, Hu Tao deliberately followed from a distance.
She followed him all the way out of Liyue Harbor, and gradually realized that something was wrong with the route.
"Is this old fogey Zhongli trying to trick me? Who would live in the mountains?"
Hu Tao discovered that Zhongli seemed to be heading towards Mount Aozang.
Aozang Mountain is the land of immortals, and no one else lives there.
"I knew it. This old antique must want to go out and relax. He was afraid that I wouldn't agree, so he found this excuse!"
Hu Tao followed all the way and soon arrived at the foot of Mount Aozang.
But Zhongli suddenly stopped, which scared Hu Tao so much that she quickly hid behind an amber.
"This guy, could it be that he discovered me…" Hu Tao seemed a little guilty.
Although she was tracking as the boss, tracking itself is not good behavior.
"Crack!"
Hu Tao leaned against the amber and heard the sound of something cracking.
At first, Hu Tao thought she was seeing things, but when she looked closely, she found that the amber in front of her had cracks!
"Bang!"
With the final loud bang, two figures suddenly jumped out of the amber.
"Damn, you're so unreliable, how did I end up in amber?"
Xavier jumped up, cursing.
This damn system actually teleported him into amber. Is there anything more outrageous than this?
"Hey, be careful!"
Before Xavier had time to look around, a clear voice came.
As soon as he turned his head, he was knocked to the ground by the wild boar that came out of the amber.
"Pooh…"
Xavier spat out the mud in his mouth.
He was already furious, and he didn't expect to be hit by a wild boar.
This made Xavier so angry that he wanted to kill the wild boar and have a barbecue at the same time.
Who would have thought that this wild boar ran so fast that it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Hey young man, your way of appearing is so unique!"
Facing Xavier who jumped out of the amber, Hu Tao was not afraid at all, and was even a little curious.
Xavier was stunned for a moment. It turned out that it was Hu Tao who had just given him the hint.
After looking around, it seemed that they were on the mountain.
Xavier dusted himself off and asked in confusion, "Hu Tao, why are you here?"
"Well, of course I'm here to do serious business."
"No, no, how did you know my name, and called it so naturally? I don't think we've met before, right?"
The girl in front of him was wearing a Qiankun Tai Gua hat and a long dress.
She was standing with her hands on her hips, blinking her big plum blossom eyes, staring at Xavier curiously.
"Well, it's a long story. Anyway, I have no hostility towards you." Xavier knew that he couldn't explain it clearly in just a few words.
Hu Tao didn't ask any more questions, but started to circle around Xavier.
"Hmm~ I've never seen such clothes before, and they must have come out of amber."
Hu Tao thought for a moment, then said excitedly, "I see. You must be the one who came here to seek the immortal way a long time ago, but was accidentally sealed in amber!"
Such stories are not uncommon in Liyue folklore.
Xavier spread his hands and sighed, "I'm not from Liyue, and I'm not here to seek immortality…"
Before Xavier could finish, Hu Tao continued, "It doesn't matter whether you're from Liyue or not. What matters is that I heard that those who are sealed in amber have a high probability of dying young after coming out!"
Xavier's face darkened. He seemed to know what Hu Tao was going to say.
Sure enough, Hu Tao had already started to measure Xavier's size.
"Hmm~ That's right, we happen to have a coffin suitable for you in our Hall of Rebirth."
"It just so happens that our Wangsheng Hall is having a sale right now. Would you like to consider it? It's only 1 million Mora!"
Hu Tao felt that she was extremely lucky as she met such a big client right after going up the mountain.
Although he doesn't look like a rich man, he might have some valuable old things on him.
Xavier was speechless. Hu Tao was really too dedicated.
He couldn't help but complain: "So, my Master Hu, you came to the mountain early in the morning just to look for customers?"
"Oops, I almost forgot something important!"
When this matter was mentioned, Hu Tao suddenly remembered the purpose of her coming here.
Hu Tao's body was very flexible and light. She took one step and reached the rock, and with another step she jumped onto the pine tree.
She put her hand on her forehead and kept looking into the distance.
"Oh no, it's only been a short while, how come Zhongli disappeared?" Hu Tao was a little annoyed.
But at this moment, a familiar voice came from below.
"Master, what's the important matter that brings you to me?"
Hu Tao was so frightened by the sudden sound that she almost fell off the tree. She had to work hard to steady herself.
After jumping down from the tree, Hu Tao put her hands on her hips and asked, "How dare you ask me? Didn't I say no to today's holiday?"
Zhongli appeared out of nowhere and said calmly, "I'll be back in half a day. I don't think it will affect my work."
"I don't care. I'm your boss. If I don't approve, it won't work!"
Hu Tao turned her head away and didn't listen to Zhongli's explanation at all.
Only then did Xavier know why Hu Tao appeared in Aozang Mountain. It turned out that she was there to catch employees who were absent from work.
Zhongli also noticed Xavier's presence, so he turned around and asked, "Who is this young man…"
"Ahem, I said I came from another world, do you believe me?"
Hu Tao and Zhongli looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.
Xavier was very angry. The grandfather and grandson were just arguing, so how come they were so in sync now?
There was no choice, Xavier had to explain to the two of them on the spot.
He even took out his cell phone, and only then did the two of them believe him.
"Wow, this little thing has so many functions, it's really interesting!"
Hu Tao kept swiping her phone back and forth, and it was obvious that she was very interested.
Zhongli next to him seemed to be thinking a lot.
After a long while, he finally spoke: "In other words, my friend Xavier, not only do you come from another world, but you can also invite us to join you."
Xavier nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, that's right, that's what I meant. This is also the main purpose of my visit this time!"
After hearing this, Hu Tao put down her phone.
"Why? Why would you invite us over for no reason? Is there some conspiracy?"
Xavier was at a loss for words. He couldn't say that he had a system on him, right?
However, Xavier expressed his true thoughts: "Because many people on Blue Star like the Hall Master and the guest Zhongli, and I am one of them."
Hu Tao's eyes widened. "No way, everyone in the other world knows about us?"
Xavier took the phone and pointed at the Genshin Impact icon.
"That's right, everything stems from this game called Genshin Impact!"
"Fate! Indescribable!"
