Chapter 144 2 Tables of Immortals
Chapter 144 2 Tables of Immortals
In a private courtyard house in Liyue Harbor, the number of stone tables in the courtyard increased to two due to the upcoming guests.
Outside the open courtyard gate, the blond boy and the white-haired floating object walked slowly towards them with anticipation.
As soon as he entered the room, Paimeng caught a glimpse of the five Yaksha generals sitting at the table. He immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Xiao! You are here."
Xiao turned his head and looked over, saying, "Oh, it's you guys. Looks like the meeting to send the Immortal Code went smoothly?"
Kong nodded and said, "I also talked with Yan Shen for a while. Next, I should stay in Liyue Harbor for a while."
"You don't need to tell me about this kind of thing. However, as long as you are in Liyue, if you are lost in the wilderness, encounter thieves on the road, water, fire, weapons, ghosts, gods, drugs, poisons, evil beasts, poisonous insects, enemies, and evil people, call my name."
"I will come as soon as possible." Although Xiao's tone was light, it gave people a great sense of security and reassurance.
Paimon seemed to see through everything and said with a smile: "In fact, Xiao cares about others a lot, right? It's just that he can't say it out loud because of his face."
Xiao snorted coldly and whispered, "Disrespectful to the Immortal Master."
His third sister, Yingda, laughed and said, "Xiao, even little Paimeng has seen through it, so don't be so stubborn, it's okay to just say it directly."
Xiao turned his head and looked away without saying anything. Fortunately, his good niece came over with some odds and ends and helped him out.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the banquet is still being prepared. You can have some fruit juice or drinks first." The plate that Shen He was holding was divided into four layers, with snacks and drinks.
Mi Nu reached out to take a glass of Xuanbing apple juice, took a sip, and said, "Thank you, little niece."
"Uncle Mi Nu, you're too polite." Shen He smiled faintly, like snowflakes blooming on an iceberg, so bright and gorgeous.
Paimon scratched his head and asked in confusion, "Uncle?"
After Shen He finished his work and left, Paimeng couldn't wait to ask, "Why did Shen He call you uncle? You two seem to be about the same age."
"Moreover, Xiao didn't even say anything disrespectful to the Immortal Master. Could it be that Shen He is also from the Immortal Family, or is he a real Immortal?!"
The fourth of the Five Yaksha Generals, Fa Nan, had a charming look in his eyes and said softly, "Little Paimon's imagination is really amazing. He was able to figure out so many things from just a few clues. However, you are wrong about one thing."
"The five of us concealed our identities and acknowledged Mr. Mo Ran as our eldest brother. Shen He is considered the eldest brother's daughter, so it is not surprising that she calls Mi Nu "uncle."
Paimeng's doubts not only did not diminish, but deepened, "What is going on? Why did you acknowledge Mo Ran as your big brother? Isn't Yasha an immortal? Even if Mo Ran has poor eyesight, he should be able to see it, right? This is not the right way to think!"
Mi Nu coughed a few times and said calmly, "Let me explain."
"Brother Mo Ran's ancestors have done us five great favors, which can be said to be like a grace of rebirth. Therefore, we treat their descendants as relatives with the same blood."
"Until elder brother Mo Ran was young, the Mo family fell into decline, and elder brother Mo Ran was the only one left in the direct lineage. People who have just experienced the ups and downs of life will not easily accept help from others."
"Because of this, the five of us were transformed into babies, each lying in a basket, with a Mora for living and a letter asking for help in adopting a child."
"Just like that, the five of us became Brother Mo Ran's younger brothers and sisters, and have been protecting him in secret, but he doesn't know it."
As he spoke, Mi Nu showed a nostalgic look on his face, as if it were really true, but in fact he had tried his best to make sure that not a single mistake was made.
Paimon had been infected by this slightly melancholy and sad atmosphere, and he lowered his head and stopped talking.
Kong seemed to be thinking about something, and asked, "But how can you be sure that Mo Ran will adopt you? What if he didn't choose to take over at that time, but just took Mora away?"
Fu She was wearing a loose robe with fluttering sleeves. He said firmly, "Given the character of my eldest brother, he would never sit idly by and watch such a thing. This is certain."
"But since you said if, um...if Big Brother Mo Ran really didn't adopt us at that time, but just took Mora away, then he would not be our big brother anymore."
"It sounds like Fushe quite trusts Mo Ran! However, I didn't expect that he has lived with several immortals since he was a child without even noticing them. This is what the people of Liyue often say, 'You don't know how lucky you are when you have a blessing.'" Paimon picked up a glass of iced drink, drank it in one gulp, and was very satisfied.
The five Yaksha generals all smiled knowingly, but they didn't know whether they were laughing at the fact that the matter was resolved like this, or they were still thinking about the man in black who was working.
The setting sun, which was already only a last ray of light, was about to set, night was approaching, and a bright moon was hanging high in the sky.
The immortals finally arrived one after another, but they were all in human form.
Paimeng was very confused and puzzled, but she didn't ask any more questions, because she felt that Mo Ran's fate with immortality and the business his ancestors had built were ridiculously good!
Zhongli arrived shortly afterwards, exchanged a few words with the two, and then walked into the courtyard.
"Traveler, Paimeng, you are all here." Yuhengxing Keqing, who was dressed in purple and had purple hair, walked over. Behind her was Ningguang, who had white hair. The latter walked to the stone table with ease, without even needing Paimeng's guidance.
Paimeng returned a greeting and looked at the white-haired woman who seemed to have returned to her own home and whose aura suddenly dropped. Now Ningguang looked like a girl next door who had reached marriageable age, with bright eyes, white teeth, and a pretty face.
Paimeng opened his mouth to ask, and heard another gentle greeting. Turning back, he saw Ganyu, whose eyes were full of tenderness. Her blue hair and pretty face looked like a fairy in the moonlight.
"Ganyu is here too. Come in quickly and find a seat inside." Paimeng said dutifully, like a doorman welcoming guests.
"But I didn't expect that Ganyu, who looks very busy, is not the last one to arrive." Paimon looked at the welcome brochure written by Kong in his hand, and there was only one immortal left.
"Hehe, my legs and feet are not in good condition, please don't be surprised, little Paimeng." A voice full of vicissitudes of life came. It was Grandma Ping. The old lady was supported by a stunningly beautiful woman in snow-white clothes. She walked to the door step by step.
"It's Grandma Ping, and Mo Ran's sister, um, what's her name?" Paimeng covered his head. His brain, which had not been working for years, could not function at all.
Kong Bang added: "Miss Guizhong, please come in."
Guizhong smiled with his hands covering his mouth, subverting all the beautiful scenery in the world, and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work, both of you. You have been the guests for quite a while, right? Later, I will ask Xiaoran to make you an extra midnight snack to take back as an apology."
"Okay!" Paimon's eyes flashed with countless stars, and his legs swayed happily. Kong sighed and could only hold his forehead with one hand and turn his head away from looking at this travel companion who was almost dancing with joy.
Grandma Ping smiled and said, "Guizhong, do you think Xiaoran will really start cooking again? Before, he even tried to refuse the position of chef."
"Then don't worry, Xiaoran still understands these incidents. Just wait and see!" Gui Zhong said slowly with a smile.
Grandma Ping said yes, and the two of them walked into the courtyard, which was quite crowded with people.
Paimon and Kong looked at each other, then followed him in and closed the courtyard gate.
Paimon looked at the woman who was the exact opposite of his brother, dressed in white, pure and otherworldly, as bright as the moon, and as white as snow.
She thought for a while and asked, "Guizhong, the crossbow used for defense and attack on the Liyue Harbor defense line seems to be called Guizhongji, which is the same as your name. Is there any connection between them?"
Gui Zhong, the demon god who was thousands of years old, actually said playfully: "It is common for mechanical creations to be named after their creators. Isn't that right?"
"Master of Creation?" Paimon muttered to himself for a moment, and was immediately shocked. He said in a trembling voice, "You...you are the Demon God of Dust, Hagentus! But didn't you go out to seek the truth?"
Gui Zhong looked at the little guy with a playful smile and asked, "Isn't Morax still alive? Why should I leave Liyue?"
"That's right!" Paimon then remembered that the Rock Emperor was still alive, and the Demon God of Dust seemed to have no reason to leave, but then she was shocked again.
"No! You are Mo Ran's sister, but you are also the Demon God of Dust. Could it be that you are here to protect Mo Ran again?!" Paimeng was dumbfounded.
She has a stunningly beautiful demon as her sister, and the powerful Yaksha general as her brother or sister. It is unknown what the relationship between her and the immortal who has lived for a long time is, but it seems that they have a close relationship.
The most important thing is that he has forged a deep friendship with the Rock King Morax. Picking any one of these out would be enough for others to envy for several lifetimes. This guy Mo Ran has such good luck that it's annoying!
