Ch 137: Hu Tao: Exorcism? Flyers First!
Huo Huo heard Ningguang’s question and scratched the back of her head in confusion.
“Celestials?”
Seeing Huo Huo’s bewildered expression, Ningguang sensed something was amiss.
Could it be that Huo Huo wasn’t a Celestial? But if not, why did she look like this?
Fortunately, Hu Tao quickly offered an explanation.
“Ningguang, Huo Huo is from Luofu. You haven’t visited Luofu; Luofu has Fox People.”
Upon hearing this, Ningguang understood. She hadn’t expected Huo Huo to be from Luofu.
“So that’s it. Huo Huo, welcome to Liyue.”
Huo Huo smiled happily.
“Thank you.”
Ningguang asked again.
“Huo Huo, why did you come to Liyue?”
Huo Huo said,
“It’s like this: I came to follow Older Sister Hu Tao in ghost catching and exorcism.”
Hu Tao nodded.
“That’s right, that’s it.”
Ningguang smiled.
“Huo Huo, if you need anything in Liyue, you can come to Older Sister.
Alright, I have something to do. See you later.”
Ningguang bid farewell to Huo Huo and Hu Tao and continued to inspect harbor affairs.
Hu Tao, in turn, took Huo Huo back the same way. Along the way, Hu Tao tested Huo Huo’s memory, memorizing how many routes there were in Liyue.
Huo Huo answered them all one by one. Huo Huo was very puzzled; why did Older Sister Hu Tao want her to learn this?
This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with ghost catching and exorcism, does it?
With questions, Huo Huo asked Hu Tao.
“Older Sister Hu Tao, what’s the connection between ghost catching and exorcism and being familiar with the streets and alleys?”
Hu Tao listened and showed a mysterious smile.
“Of course there’s a relationship; the relationship is huge.”
Hu Tao looked at the evening; the sun hadn’t set yet, there should still be time; Ye Yun hadn’t started dinner yet.
Hu Tao took out a stack of flyers and gave half to Huo Huo.
“These are our Wangsheng Funeral Parlor’s promotional flyers. I had you familiarize yourself with the streets and alleys for this.”
Huo Huo received the flyer, her little head muddled.
“Older Sister Hu Tao, what are we doing with these flyers?”
Hu Tao patted the flyers in her hand.
“Of course, it’s to attract customers! Huo Huo, our ghost catching and exorcism, firstly, relies on spells, and secondly, on artifacts, right?
Think about it, do artifacts cost money? Do your daily necessities cost money?
That’s right, all of these cost money.”
Huo Huo understood after hearing this. So that’s how it is.
Indeed, the small flags she used for exorcism were very expensive, according to Elder Han Ya.
“Huo Huo understands! Huo Huo will work hard to distribute flyers!”
Hu Tao showed a look of “a promising student.”
“Good, good. While we still have time, let’s go distribute flyers. Let’s go!”
Huo Huo took the flyers and cheered with Hu Tao.
“Oh! Add oil!”
Afterwards, Hu Tao took Huo Huo to distribute flyers door to door.
Huo Huo found this very novel. At first, she was a little afraid and didn’t dare to go up and distribute them.
After distributing to a few houses, she got used to it and distributed them faster than Hu Tao.
The Liyue people around were already used to this; they had often had Hu Tao directly deliver flyers to their homes before.
Flyers were still good; Hu Tao didn’t go inside to solicit, which was already pretty good.
Luofu, within Shen Ce Mansion.
Jing Yuan was entertaining several distinguished guests.
“Long time no see, General Jing Yuan.” Huaiyan walked in from the door with Yun Li.
Jing Yuan bowed.
“Long time no see, Elder Yan. How have you been lately?”
Huaiyan laughed heartily several times.
“Hahahaha, how can this old man be? I’m getting old, my health is getting worse every year.”
Jing Yuan said with a smile.
“Elder Yan, that’s not right. You are still vigorous; you are an important pillar of our Immortal Vessel.”
Huaiyan said,
“Alright, alright, let’s not engage in mutual flattery.
By the way, where’s General Feixiao? Has she not arrived yet?”
As soon as Huaiyan finished speaking, Feixiao walked into the lobby with Jiaoqiu and Mo Ze.
“Oh, I’ve just arrived and I hear someone talking about me?”
Huaiyan smiled.
“It’s true that you can’t say it, as soon as you mention someone, they arrive. General Feixiao, long time no see.”
Feixiao bowed to Huaiyan and Jing Yuan.
“Feixiao greets Elder Yan and General Jing Yuan.”
Jing Yuan and Huaiyan returned the bow, and Feixiao continued.
“When are we going to find Miss Bailu?”
Jing Yuan said with a smile.
“Let’s set off now; everyone is here.”
Afterwards, Jing Yuan led several people onto the Star Raft to go to the train’s location.
Meanwhile, inside Huixing Port.
Jingliu stood quietly on high ground, watching the two little ones sparring below.
That’s right.
One was Yanqing, who couldn’t wait to find Jingliu to learn swordsmanship ahead of time, and the other was Huaiyan’s granddaughter, Yun Li.
They encountered a squad of Demonic Shadow Soldiers on the way. After a fight, Yanqing’s flying sword was knocked away and picked up by Yun Li.
The two happened to meet here again, and after an argument, Yun Li was unwilling to return the sword, so they fought.
Seeing that the two were about to settle the score with one sword, Jingliu decided to intervene.
Jingliu summoned the Epiphyllum Sword, blinked in front of the two, and slashed at each of them with a sword.
Yanqing and Yun Li had to change their moves to defend.
Jingliu put away the Epiphyllum Sword.
“Sparring is sparring. Don’t overdo it. Swords are always for the enemy, not for your own people.”
Jingliu looked at Yanqing and continued.
“If you want to learn the sword, come over here.”
Hearing this, Yanqing followed Jingliu.
Seeing this, Yun Li followed out of curiosity about Jingliu.
Although Jingliu only used one sword strike just now, Yun Li knew Jingliu’s strength from this one strike,
Strong! Very strong! A true master swordsman!
Jingliu took Yanqing to the reservoir.
Seeing Yun Li following, Yanqing frowned slightly.
“What are you following for?”
Yun Li snorted coldly.
“I can go wherever I want; it’s none of your business?”
Yanqing said seriously.
“I’m learning swordsmanship; are you trying to steal it?”
Hearing this, Yun Li wanted to retort, but then she thought again.
If Yanqing was really following this master to learn swordsmanship, it would indeed be inconvenient for her to be here.
At this time, Jingliu spoke.
“It’s fine; my swordsmanship, if you want to learn, I will teach.”
Yun Li was overjoyed to hear this.
“Really? Can I learn swordsmanship from you?”
Jingliu nodded slightly.
“Mm.”
Receiving Jingliu’s affirmative response, Yun Li was overjoyed.
“Humph, did you hear that? Others don’t mind teaching people, so why does someone learning mind?”
Yanqing snorted coldly and said no more.
Seeing that the two had calmed down, Jingliu began to teach swordsmanship.
“This swordsmanship is even more profound than the swordsmanship of our Immortal Vessel.”
Jingliu began to teach the two swordsmanship.
This scene was just seen by Jing Yuan, Huaiyan, and Feixiao, who were passing by on the Star Raft.
Seeing Jingliu, Huaiyan’s pupils suddenly widened.
“General Jing Yuan, I’m not wrong, is that her? Isn’t she…?”
Jing Yuan smiled slightly.
“Don’t worry, Elder Yan; although she fell into demonic possession, she retained her reason.
And, she has already taken the Qingling Pill; she is the test subject for the Qingling Pill.”
Huaiyan was very relieved to hear this.
“That’s great! That’s wonderful!”
