Chapter 2: The First Commission

This night is indeed as the ferryman said, there is no business, until the early hours of the morning the hall master returned to the afterlife hall, it is said to go to "bask in the moon", I think it should be a code word for big business.

The working hours of the Afterlife Hall are usually after dark, but this is only for the ferryman. The nature of the owner's work is special, so the working hours are not fixed, and so are the working hours. As for Mr. Zhongli, Liang Jiu had been in the Hall of the Dead for a few days, but he had not seen him again.

It can be seen that the arduous work of Mr. Zhongli is really beyond the reach of people.

"Received a new commission, Liang Jiu, you go and do it!" When Liang Jiu was still sleepy-eyed, Hu Tao put a commissioned wooden sign on his face with a smile on his face.

But I always feel that my face is a little hot......

In the Dead Hall, if anyone needs help with this, all they need to do is remove a wooden sign from the bulletin board outside, write their own commission on it, and then stuff it into the crack of the door of the Dead Hall, and then the ferryman will sort it and then take the commission that belongs to their own work area.

Such an advanced entrustment technology avoids the contact between the timid client and the employees of the deceased hall, thereby ensuring the physical and mental health of the client, promoting social harmony, and becoming a vital force to promote the development of the times. Won the 1st Liyue Port Tourism Development Conference almost nominated for the award, the 382nd Commemorative Award for Failed Patent Application, and the Liyue Port Street Intangible Cultural Heritage Award......

It seems that the awards that these hall owners are proud of are not very good.

[Since drowning a few days ago, I have always had a feeling of suffocation these days, so that I can't eat, I can't sleep, I must have been entangled by water ghosts, you want to find me to replace me, save me!]

- Guanhai]

This is the entrusted content on the wooden card, and it is also the first entrusted task that Liang Jiu has received in the past few days.

I must do my best, so that the hall master will be impressed with me, in this way, it won't be long before I will be promoted and raised, become a business elite, become the deputy hall master, marry Bai Fumei, and go to the peak of life, think about it carefully, and be a little excited.

"Huh? Do you need someone to take you to do the commission? What? The apprentice must be taught by the master for the first time, otherwise it is easy to make mistakes? Oops, don't worry, Mora has already taken it anyway...... Uh-uh, I believe in your business ability, you will definitely be able to do the best! Come on, young man! Before leaving, Hu Tao said.

From the hall master's words, Liang Jiu felt full of encouragement, which was a power called trust.

Liang Jiu's face was full of perseverance, this was the hall master's expectation of himself! As long as you complete this commission well, you will definitely be able to make the hall master favor it, and promotion and salary increase are not a dream!

But what does the "seven-seven" in the hall master's mouth mean?

Forget it, how can the hall master's thoughts be understood by mortals.

"Please talk to Guanhai from 7 to 10 p.m."

Liang Jiu is not from Liyue Harbor, and although he has mostly memorized the roads after wandering around Liyue Harbor for several days, it will take a long time to find people he doesn't know at all. After asking a few residents in succession, Liang Jiu finally arrived at the Liyue Harbor Pier. At this moment, Liang Jiu was surprised to find that there was such a line of small characters on the commissioned wooden card.

Liyue didn't have a clock, and although alchemy was so advanced that she could even build a camera, she didn't have the tools to tell the time.

However, this is not too big a problem for Liang Jiu, although Liang Jiu is not perfect in judging the time according to the shadow length and the position of the sun, it is generally not wrong.

The sun was about to set, and the shadows of the objects were elongated, and according to what we knew about the latitude and longitude of Liyue Harbor, it should be around six o'clock in the afternoon, just wait another hour.

Idle, Liang Jiu looked at all kinds of people on the dock, life may be very dull and uneventful, but he can also taste a trace of sweetness. There are no storms, no huge waves, there is just quiet and peaceful, this kind of life is very good.

Dozens of minutes passed quickly, and seeing that it was almost seven o'clock, Liang Jiu got up and strode towards the dock.

Wait a minute!

The speed at which time passes...... Is it too fast?

The setting sun disappeared into the sky at a breakneck speed, and in its place it was pitch black. A moment later, a white light rose from the east, and the stacked clouds revealed a unique beauty under its illumination.

???

Liang Jiu was dumbfounded, the foot he had just stepped out had not yet landed, and he didn't know if it was appropriate to take it back now.

Time...... was changed.

Is this the continent of Teyvat, where the Seven Gods are located? The power of the gods can turn everything around!

It's hard to believe, but the divine power has affected Liyue, indicating that the god is in great danger. Maybe it's fighting to the death against the abyssal forces that are trying to subvert Teyvat, or maybe it's suppressing the remnants of a demon god's immortality...... Whatever the case may be, it is a sign that a duel is breaking out in a place that is invisible to people and is enough to alarm the entire continent!

Thinking of this, Liang Jiu was also relieved. Those who hold salaries for everyone must not be allowed to freeze to death in the wind and snow, and others are fighting bloodily, how can they be dissatisfied with this small problem because of this small problem?

Two days have passed...... No, two days and nights should have passed to be exact, but the actual time was less than an hour. During this period, it rained three times and thunder struck me twice.

Is the battle getting tense?

But the commission ......

Thinking of the gentle gaze of the hall master before leaving, as if waiting for his sweetheart to make a contribution, Liang Jiu clenched the entrustment wooden card in his hand, this was his first commission in the Hall of the Dead!

The hall master is such a gentle, kind, intellectually beautiful, and intelligent woman, do you want to disappoint the hall master?

But what can be done in this situation? He was nothing more than an ordinary person who didn't even have the Vision of God, and he couldn't do anything in front of the gods.

What's in your hands...... It's a bit of a stick.

This seems to be a rough stone.

Rough stones!

That's right! The ferryman said that as long as a small amount of rough stone was spent and an exclamation mark was put on the head, there would be hard-working travelers who would come to help.

I don't know if there is a solution for the blind traveler who often wanders the streets, forget it, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor.

However, how much rough is appropriate?

Rough gems are an extremely common resource in Teyvat, whether it is the Seven Stars in the sky, the mortals in the streets, or the delirious hilichurls, there are a large reserve of Primordial Stones. This trip was in a hurry, and there were only one hundred and sixty rough stones on his body, and he didn't know if it was enough, so he could only hope that the traveler was a kind-hearted person.

……

[Data reconnection ......].

Time has not changed rapidly since Liang Jiu issued an exclamation mark, and before Liang Jiu could react, a white light on the side of the bridge suddenly rushed into the sky, and I heard the old man in the city say that it was a customized special effect of the traveler using the teleportation anchor.

As for what it meant, Liang Jiu couldn't understand it.
