Original God: Start with Qiuqiu, become stronger with food and beauties

Chapter 149: Resting at Qiaoying Manor

On a breezy afternoon, the sun gently shone on the streets and alleys of Qiaoying Village. Green trees formed shades, and birds sang happily in the branches.

"Thank you so much," the old man said to Luo Xiaoyue and Huang Long Yidou. At this moment, a breeze blew across the old man's wrinkled face.

"Don't be so formal! The first principle of the Arawaki sect is to help others! As the boss, I must always adhere to it." Arawaki Ichito said loudly, and the mottled wall behind him seemed to be witnessing his determination.

"Arakaki sect?" the old man asked doubtfully. The leaves around him rustled, as if they were also curious about this unfamiliar term.

"This is my gang, located in Inazuma. You can tell more people about it. If you encounter any trouble in Inazuma in the future, you can ask the Arataki faction for help." Arataki Ichito's voice sounded particularly loud in this quiet atmosphere.

The old man stroked his beard, smiled and said, "Haha, so that's how it is. But you have helped us so much, so try our tea by the way. If you like it, please introduce more customers to us in the future." At this time, the brook not far away was gurgling, adding a bit of liveliness to this warm scene.

Arata Ichito responded readily, "No problem!"

Luo Xiaoyue said on the side: "But the tea from Qiaoying Manor is world-famous. I can't think of anyone who doesn't know it." The breeze gently blew her hair, and everything seemed so beautiful and harmonious.

In this warm atmosphere, the old man warmly led them into his courtyard, which was full of colorful flowers, emitting bursts of charming fragrance.

Everyone sat around a rustic wooden table as the old man expertly brewed tea. He gently lifted the teapot, pouring boiling water into it. The tea leaves tumbled and expanded in the water, instantly filling the air with the fragrance of tea.

Arata Ichito took a deep breath and exclaimed, "This fragrance is truly intoxicating!"

The old man smiled and handed over a cup of brewed tea, saying, "Try it, this is the treasure of our village."

Araki Ichito took the teacup and took a sip. A rich tea aroma filled his mouth. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Delicious! This taste is absolutely amazing!"

Luo Xiaoyue also picked up the teacup, savored it carefully, and a satisfied expression appeared on her face.

Luo Kun looked very pleased: "I haven't had fresh drink in a long time. This trip is worth it."

The servant was a little bit unbelieving: "I didn't expect that I would also be involved."

At this moment, a butterfly fluttered over and landed on a nearby flower. The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting patches of light on the ground.

The old man looked at their satisfied expressions and smiled happily: "I'm glad you like it. Please help us promote it more in the future."

Arata Ichito patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, I, Arata Ichito, will do what I say!"

"Let's rest in the village for one night first." Luo Kun suggested.

Arata Ichito: "I agree, it's nice to have some fun here."

Luo Xiaoyue was drinking tea and looking at the people looking at the tea leaves. She felt that one of them looked very familiar.

Luo Xiaoyue: "Master? And this... Guest Zhong from the Wangsheng Hall... What a coincidence."

Prince Hao: "What a coincidence! Would you like to have tea here?"

"Well, the tea here is very good."

Zhongli agreed, "The tea from Qiaoying Manor is the best in Teyvat. Pick the freshest tea leaves and boil them in boiling spring water for a short while. The tea is fragrant and has an endless aftertaste."

Araki Ichito excitedly shouted, "Luo Xiaoyue! The snacks here are pretty good too! Hey! It's Brother Hao Wang! What a coincidence! You're here too? Let me tell you, there are so many good things here!"

King Hao responded, "I know, and I've been to this place quite a few times."

Just then, Zhongli slowly walked over. He had an upright posture and a calm temperament.

Luo Kun asked doubtfully, "Master? Miss, isn't your master the Qiuqiu Immortal?"

Luo Xiaoyue looked embarrassed: "Uh..."

King Hao said, "That's right, but can't people have multiple masters?"

Luo Xiaoyue was surprised: "Huh?"

Luo Kun frowned and said, "Isn't this treasonous?"

Zhongli shook his head slightly and said, "Things in the world are constantly changing. How can they be measured by a single rule? Having another master and more guidance is not necessarily a bad thing."

King Hao explained, "The contract between Qiuqiu Immortal and Luo Xiaoyue doesn't contain a clause prohibiting him from taking another person as his master, so there's no problem."

Luo Kun then asked, "So what do you teach?"

King Hao replied, "Some methods for dealing with the boundary between life and death. The Qiuqiu Immortal asked her to contact people like the Wangsheng Hall and alchemists more often so that she could master some special techniques."

Luo Kun suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."

Zhongli folded his arms and said thoughtfully, "Life and death are mysterious and unpredictable. Luo Xiaoyue will inevitably encounter more things after inheriting the immortal fate. It would be beneficial to learn more skills."

Luo Kun: "As expected of Mr. Zhongli, you hit the point right away."

Luo Xiaoyue: "By the way, Arawaki Ichito, how did you get to know me...my master? This should be the first time you met, right?"

Arata Ichito: "It's a long story... There's a pretty cool girl in my Arata sect. When we went to that secret realm to train, she turned Inazuma upside down. Let me tell you, many of the rules of my Arata sect were designed by her."

Luo Xiaoyue: "Could she be the legendary... Madam Huang Long?"

Arata Ichito: "What are you thinking about? She is one of my best friends, but we haven't reached that level yet."

Luo Xiaoyue: "Oh, then I guess she was chasing you and she happened to meet my master on the way and stopped you, right?"

Arata Ichito: "Yes, thanks to him, otherwise my ears might be lost. This is simply fate."

King Hao: "That's thanks to her caring about you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get started."

Luo Xiaoyue tilted her head and asked curiously, "By the way, Arawaki Ichido, how did you get to know me...my master? This must be your first meeting, right?"

Arakaki Ichito crossed his arms, beaming with joy as he spoke, "It's a long story... There was a really cool girl in my Arakaki sect. When we went to that secret realm for training, she completely turned Inazuma upside down." He waved his hand excitedly as he spoke, "Let me tell you, many of the rules of my Arakaki sect were established by her."

Luo Xiaoyue opened her eyes wide and said in surprise, "Could she be the rumored... Madam Huang Long?"

Arata Ichito quickly waved his hands and said anxiously, "What are you thinking about? She is one of my very good friends, but we are not that close yet."

Luo Xiaoyue held her chin with her hand and guessed, "Oh, then I guess she was chasing you and was stopped by my master on the way, right?"

Arataki Ichito touched his ear with lingering fear and said, "Yes, thanks to him, otherwise my ears would be in danger. This is truly fate's arrangement."

Prince Hao put his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "That's all thanks to her caring about you. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to intervene."
