Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Secret of the Heart, the Covenant of Gentleness
Qing looked at Beidou in front of him a little blankly, and asked a little sluggishly: "You guys are a pirate here and have files?" ”
"Our Southern Cross fleet is Liyue's official partner fleet, so we're not pirates!"
Xiao Yu pouted to express dissatisfaction, then turned around and ran away with pen and ink.
Beidou watched Xiaoyu run away, then turned his head with a smile and continued to speak: "How is it?" There is a salary, a commission and a guarantee, are you tempted? ”
"That's it, I'll withdraw first if I still have something to do."
Qing waved his hand a little tiredly, and as he spoke, he stood up and prepared to leave, he decided to stay away from these business people in the future.
Beidou saw that Qing was about to leave, so he added: "The post of the martial arts conference is in the hands of your little girl who is the hall master, recuperate your energy." ”
Qing didn't answer, but quickened his pace.
This made Beidou in the back couldn't help but laugh again, and then raised his head and took another sip of wine.
Hearing the faint laughter from behind, Qing suddenly missed Keqing a little, everyone is an intellectual in the management, why is the gap so big?
Leaving the ship on the waterfront, passing the chatting port workers, and then up the not-so-high stairs is a somewhat noisy market.
Qingzheng was about to walk up the stairs, but he suddenly stopped, and turned his head to look to the right side with some feeling.
There were lampposts that were more than one tall one by one, but at noon, there was no candlelight flickering on the top of the lamppost.
Kiyoshi didn't continue to leave, turned around and walked in the direction of the lamppost.
As Qing approached, the shadow behind the lamppost was suddenly startled with a ripple, and a purple figure came out.
The girl walked out slowly from behind the lamppost, felt the clear gaze, couldn't help but blush a little, and then cleared her throat and said calmly: "Ahem, the small shops near the port have been developing too fast recently, and I came to investigate." ”
Looking at the panic flickering in the girl's eyes, Qing couldn't help but smile, but he didn't pierce this obvious lie, and said with a smile: "It's really a coincidence, I was thinking about you, and you appeared." ”
"Think...... Miss me? ”
Ke Qing couldn't help but pause when she heard this, the rosiness of her cheeks was extremely obvious, and she didn't seem to know what to say for a while.
However, Keqing was also calm and fast, reached out and touched the side of his face, turned around and walked towards the outside of the port, and said as he walked: "The investigation is over, I am just going to go to the Afterlife Hall, let's go together." ”
Qing Ze walked side by side with Ke Qing, looked at the girl who fell silent, and said, "The eldest sister's martial arts conference this time seems to be quite large, will you participate?" ”
Keqing seemed to be in a daze, occasionally showing a mysterious smile, and then instantly retracted it.
So she was stunned for a moment after hearing Qing's voice, and hurriedly reached out and pinched her cheek, returned to her usual expression, and said: "This is a good opportunity to increase my actual combat experience, but unfortunately I need to maintain the mystery of my identity, so I can't sign up." ”
Qing looked at Ke Qing's somewhat regretful appearance, and couldn't help asking, "Can't you disguise an identity?" ”
Keqing shook her head slightly, and said seriously, "In a few days, Mondstadt's mission will arrive in Liyue, and there must be no problem at this critical juncture. ”
Qing looked at Ke Qing's serious and serious appearance, and couldn't help but feel distressed in his heart, so he smiled and said, "In this way, how about I, the scheduled champion of the martial arts conference, accompany you to practice alone?" Isn't it a row of noodles? ”
"Oh?"
Keqing half-closed her eyes, staring at Qing in front of her, and then suddenly turned her head away and said, "Are you so sure you can win the championship?" ”
Qing pretended to shake his head helplessly, and then sighed and continued: "Originally, I was still a little uncertain, but now I suddenly have it. ”
Keqing's face was a little rosy again, and then she turned her head, lowered her voice and said, "If you win the championship, I'll tell you a secret, how about it?" ”
Qing Wenyan couldn't help but be stunned and said, "Huh? ”
"If you don't hear it, forget it."
Ke Qing hurriedly waved his hand, speeding up and walking forward.
Qing Ze, who was following behind, was still a little confused, and he also sped up his pace, but stopped abruptly before he could take a few steps.
He could feel a slight vibration on the ground beneath his feet, and the vibration was so weak that he wouldn't even notice it if it weren't for his strong sense as a god.
This made him frown, Liyue was the territory of the rock gods, and they were protected by the earth and rock elementals, so there would never be an earthquake.
So the source of this vibration is very noticeable, Qing saw that Keqing in front of him saw that he didn't keep up and slowed down, and he could only temporarily put away his serious expression and speed up his pace to follow.
At the same time, Qing manipulated the rock elemental to go underground, although his ability to control the rock element was not so proficient, but with the blessing of divine power, he could still do many things that the owner of the rock elemental vision could not do.
Ke Qing looked at Qing who had caught up, and couldn't help asking, "Did you notice anything just now?" Why was you suddenly stunned? ”
Qing Wenyan touched his nose a little stiffly, and temporarily thought of a reason: "I was just thinking about what you would have to say to me, and I thought of a guess, but I didn't dare to be sure." ”
Qing's expression was a little embarrassed and unnatural, which made Keqing next to him couldn't help but think a lot.
"Am I too obvious? He could guess what I was thinking. They can't see it if they can't gaze, right? He wouldn't really guess what I was going to say, would he? ”
Keqing felt that her brain was about to go down, and the rosy on her cheeks was about to expand to the base of her ears.
"Humph!"
Ke Qing suddenly turned her head and glanced at Qing viciously, then quickened her pace again and trotted towards the Hall of Death.
This made Qing, who was still manipulating the rock element to go underground, stunned again, he felt that he hadn't said anything wrong, why did Keqing suddenly glare at him shyly.
Qing retracted the control of the rock element in desperation, but the shock just now was absolutely impossible to hide from Zhongli, so he could only go back and find a chance to ask Zhongli.
……
Hall of the Dead.
Hu Tao and Zhongli sat on the left and right sides of the table, Hu Tao was sketching on a booklet, and Zhongli was leisurely sipping tea.
Suddenly, Zhongli put down the teapot and looked down at the floor at his feet.
Hu Tao, who was running around, suddenly turned his head and asked with interest, "What's wrong?" ”
Zhongli didn't say anything else, just shook his head lightly and said, "Qing should be back." ”
Hu Tao nodded in agreement and affirmed: "That's it, it takes so long to go to a meeting." ”
