Seeing that Xiao had a posture that was about to disappear, Jiang Bai hurriedly stopped teasing.

"I want to ask Xiao what you think about the emperor's murder."

Xiao didn't speak for a while.

What do you think?

Sit and watch.

What does the emperor want to do, he, as a courtier, has no right to put his beak.

"I... I can't imagine Liyue without an emperor...... Once we have found all the immortals, we will definitely go to Liyue Harbor to investigate this matter and purge all the ghosts and ghosts! Xiao said this with a murderous aura.

Obviously, he said that it was no joke to purge all the ghosts.

Jiang Bai began to worry about whether Zhongli would be able to survive the pressure of the immortals......

He tentatively spoke, "After the Emperor's soul returns to the high heavens, do you think there will be the next rock god?" ”

"I don't know." Xiao shook his head.

"Do you know Zhongli, the guest of our Death Hall?"

Hearing the name, Xiao's eyelashes moved.

"I've heard of it, what's wrong?"

"How do you think he will become the next rock god?"

Xiao: ?

He blinked, then blinked, rarely, a little dazed.

Didn't the emperor want to step down? Why do you want to become the second rock god again?

He was silent for a long time, and under Jiang Bai's somewhat eager gaze, he turned his head.

"I've just heard Hu Tao talk about this person, and I don't know much more, so I can't answer your question."

"Also, my question is a little too difficult......" Jiang Bai sighed.

Xiao turned his head, "Why are you asking about this?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just that after the emperor's soul returns to the high heavens, there must be a successor, let's ask the opinion of your immortals."

Of course, Jiang Bai would not tell the truth.

His relationship with Zhongli is obviously closer to Zhongli than his relationship with Xiao.

Although he has been slandering Zhongli for the past few days, he actually recognizes this gentleman who led him the way from the beginning, and he can be regarded as a teacher and friend.

He didn't really feel much about the death of the rock god, after all, he didn't know the rock god, and he really didn't have any sad emotions about the death of this god.

He just didn't like the hall master to be sad.

But death is dead, and there is no point in talking about it anymore, people always have to look backwards.

If Zhongli becomes the next Rock God, then he will be a disciple of the Rock God, and they will also ascend to heaven with the chicken dog.

It's just that Zhongli has become a rock god, how can he pass the level of immortals?

Jiang Bai left with a heavy heart, leaving Xiao at a loss.

Xiao slowly finished the almond tofu on the table, thought about it, and finally decided to go to Liyue Harbor to find the emperor.

He had to ask what the emperor meant, lest he accidentally sabotage his plans.

When Xiao arrived at Liyue Harbor, it was already night, and Zhongli sat in his courtyard, pouring himself a drink in the moonlight.

Xiao suddenly appeared in front of him, bowing his head slightly in respect, "Emperor." ”

"Why are you here?"

Zhongli poured him a glass of wine and motioned for him to sit.

Xiao sat a little stiffly across from him, staring at the glass in front of him.

"I met Jiang Bai at the Wangshu Inn today."

"Oh?" Zhongli raised his eyebrows, and a little interest appeared in his eyes, "What did he tell you?" ”

Xiao raised his head, obviously very confused, "He asked me if the immortals would look for the successor of the rock god, and what they think of your mortal status as the next rock god......"

Zhongli smiled, laughing so hard that Xiao was very confused.

"That guy, he talks about dissatisfaction, but his actions are quite honest......"

Xiao: ?

What is the emperor talking about, why can't he understand it at all?

Zhongli explained to him in a good mood, "He thinks that I am the murderer of the Rock King Emperor, and thinks that I killed the Rock King Emperor because I want to be the next rock god......"

Xiao: "......"

He wanted to laugh a little, but held back.

Seriously, if the emperor really wants to continue to be a rock god, why do you need to fake his death and use his vest to be the second emperor?

This speculation is outrageous.

But it's understandable that people who don't know the truth would guess so.

"Then Emperor, won't you explain it to him?"

Xiao was really a little worried that Jiang Bai would do something stupid, so that the burden that the emperor had finally unloaded would return to him.

"Why explain?" Zhongli knew Xiao's worries, but they were a bit unnecessary.

With Jiang Bai's character, he would not do anything on purpose.

At most, it is to test the attitude of the immortals like today.

He motioned for Xiao to drink, and Xiao silently obeyed the order and drank all the wine in the cup.

Maybe it was because of the alcohol, or maybe it was because of talking about Jiang Bai's stupidity, the atmosphere was more relaxed, he relaxed a lot, and his sitting posture was much more natural.

Seeing that Xiao had relaxed a lot, Zhongli's eyes overflowed with a little smile.

This child was always very reserved when facing him, and even after thousands of years, this problem has not changed.

Now he is no longer the Emperor of the Rock King, just a mortal Zhongli, but he does not have to abide by the etiquette of the former monarch and minister.

Pouring wine for Xiao again, Zhongli talked about more interesting things.

"He decided that I was the murderer, and no matter what I said or did, he would only become more convinced of his own conjectures and ignore some side stories. For example, he decided that I had an opinion about the Rock Emperor and wanted to shake Liyue's rule, but he couldn't see that I had done nothing......"

The corners of Xiao's mouth curled, obviously amused.

I couldn't imagine that a person like Jiang Bai would think of something so outrageous.

Should it be said that it is worthy of being brought out by Hu Tao, neither of them take the usual path.

If the other immortals knew about this, they would probably laugh out loud very unceremoniously, and then laugh at it for hundreds of years.

"I'm curious to see what he looks like when he knows who I am......" Zhongli took a sip of wine, the smile on his lips very obvious.

I hope that Jiang Bai will not learn from the ostrich and bury his head at that time.

Seeing that the emperor was so interested, Xiao also wanted to know what kind of picture it was, but because of his personality, he didn't say what was in his heart.

The two were chatting, when they suddenly heard a voice coming in from afar, and Xiao's figure disappeared in a flash.

"Mr. Zhongli, I've found all the things." Jiang Bai held a few lotus canopies, a few lotus flowers, and a few lotus leaves in his hands, and stepped into Zhongli's courtyard with his trousers in his hands.

He was wearing slippers and some unwashed mud from stepping into the lake to pick lotus canopies on his trouser legs.

He placed the lotus on the table with a loud bang, and then sat down on the stool opposite Zhongli.

In order to avoid being away for too long, he spent a lot of money to buy these things everywhere, and even went to the Huachi on the side of the Ozang Mountain to pick lotus flowers.

He glanced at the wine glass in front of him that still had half of the wine left, and said in surprise, "Who is Mr. Zhongli drinking with?" ”

Zhongli didn't answer his question, instead his gaze fell on the lotus canopy he had brought.

"Aren't you unwilling to worship me as a teacher, how did you get things together so quickly?"

Xiao, who was hiding in the dark, widened his eyes in shock when he heard this.
