Chapter 119 Please teach me, sir (for the helmsman [pointing at the sun], 5k)
The next day, early morning.
The fat boss curled up in the corner of the interrogation room was awakened by a noise.
He quickly looked up and saw Feng Yan, who had captured him and interrogated him for half the night.
"Sir, I..."
The fat boss looked at Feng Yan with hope.
During the interrogation last night, he revealed a lot of secrets to the other party, and the other party promised to give him a way out.
Feng Yan looked calm as he looked at the fat boss with some disgust in his eyes, but he did not show it.
Before coming here, he had already met Wang Hao and knew about Wang Hao and Yuheng's plan.
"Okay, you can't escape the 300 million bill, but I'm asking for a favor for you."
Feng Yan paused for a moment.
The fat boss looked at him intently, waiting for the second half of the sentence.
"The other party is willing to give you three days and return some of your property so that you can raise funds. No bad news will be spread within three days. Do you understand?"
To the fat boss, Feng Yan's voice was like an angel.
Three days,
Return some of the property.
More importantly, no bad news will come out within three days.
This is all good news for the fat boss.
This means that neither the Qianyan Army nor the young man with a mysterious identity beat him to death with a stick.
He still has a chance to turn things around.
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."
The fat boss thanked Feng Yan repeatedly.
Feng Yan waved his hand: "Alright, get out of here now."
The fat boss crawled out of the interrogation room.
the other side,
Wang Hao held the talisman with no taboos in his hand.
This talisman, which once appeared dull and dim in the casino warehouse, now emitted a dim glow in Wang Hao's hand.
"Well, what exactly is this thing?"
Wang Hao stared at the glowing talisman, thinking constantly in his heart.
To be honest, he really couldn't understand this talisman.
It’s not that he is stupid, it’s just that he lacks the foundation.
As a martial arts sect, the Guhua School is definitely one of the best in Liyue in terms of technical skills.
However, the Guhua School does not have many records about things like rune mysticism.
Most of them are mentioned in the adventures of the ancestors of the past generations, but there are no specific documents to record them.
There is not even any documentary record, let alone a systematic inheritance.
"The knowledge of rune immortal talismans still needs to be learned." Wang Hao sighed inwardly.
People are always like this, and will always encounter situations where their knowledge reserves are insufficient.
It is precisely because of this situation that there is the proverb "You never stop learning".
After observing the Hundred No Taboos Talisman for a while,
Wang Haocai had no choice but to put it down, totally unable to understand it.
He claims to be a smart man, but when faced with the immortal talismans, he is like an illiterate.
"It seems that I have to go visit that person."
After putting away the talisman of no taboos, Wang Hao sighed softly.
Then he raised his head and looked out the window, and saw a fat figure leaving the camp in a panic.
"The fat boss has also been released. Within three days, he will borrow money from the Northland Bank. One month later, the Northland Bank will collect the money from the fat boss. In other words... there is still one month to forge the Hundred Unrestricted Taboos Scroll."
After thinking about it, Wang Hao smiled and thought it was still in time.
After the fat boss walked away,
Wang Haocai said goodbye to Feng Yan and left the Qianyan Army’s base.
Arriving at the entrance of Feiyunpo,
Wang Hao turned and entered a small path beside the bridge.
Although it is right at the busy Feiyunpo intersection, the pedestrians here are in a hurry and seem unwilling to stay here.
Actually, it’s normal because this is the intersection of Wangsheng Hall.
Although the customs in Liyue are relatively open, the people of Liyue still feel unlucky about the Hall of Rebirth, which is in charge of death.
This misunderstanding is not discrimination, but fear and misunderstanding.
People know that the Wangsheng Hall is an upright organization that manages funeral ceremonies.
Some people will seek help from the Hall of Rebirth after they have "encountered ghosts".
But it is this mystery that makes the Wangsheng Hall avoided by ordinary people in Liyue.
Going deeper along the trail,
A courtyard paved with stone slabs appeared in front of Wang Hao.
There are several stone benches on the ground, and a white cat is lazily basking in the sun.
On one side of the stone bench, there stands a notice board.
Wang Hao had very good eyesight and vaguely saw some kind of discount offer for the second stele at half price.
Opposite the stone bench is the main entrance of the Hall of Rebirth.
Of course, as a funeral organization, the main door of the Hall of the Dead is basically not open.
Customers and funeral homes all go through the side door.
Seeing Wang Hao approaching,
A funeral director who was guarding the side door came over.
"This guest has come to my Hall of the Dead, but I need your help."
Wang Hao bowed slightly and said, "My name is Wang Hao. May I know your name, young lady?"
The funeral director smiled and said, "I am the funeral director of the Wangsheng Hall. My real name is not worth mentioning. If you need anything, just tell me directly."
【Oh oh oh, it’s not worth mentioning, Master Zhen. 】
【Hahahaha, this is really not worth mentioning, Master Zhenjun.】
【Zhongli's bill reimbursement assistant.】
[Don't mislead Wang Hao. Last time you said Ganyu was the True Lord Gulu Gulu Rolling Down the Mountain, he took it seriously.]
【…】
The comments were filled with laughter.
Wang Hao had a blank expression on his face. He was immune to what the barrage said about the True Lord.
After all... Gulu Gulu rolled down the mountain, the short man, the two pieces of poultry,
The "Zhenjun" mentioned in the barrage are all misleading titles, and Wang Hao no longer takes them seriously.
Seeing that the funeral director was unwilling to reveal his name, Wang Hao did not care and continued, "Miss, I am here to see the guest official Zhongli. I wonder if he is free?"
"Looking for a guest official from Zhongli?" Yiguan looked at Wang Hao strangely at first, then nodded, "Ten thousand Mora."
Wang Hao: “Ah?”
"Zhongli Keqing has taken this year's wages in advance. The hall master has instructed that if he does not go to work, he can take private jobs at a rate of 10,000 Mora each time."
After a pause, Master Insignificant seemed a little embarrassed about the offer: "It's not that the hall master made a random offer, it's really Mr. Zhongli..."
She hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't say why.
But Wang Hao already understood.
I guess Zhongli bought something valuable and paid for it to Wangshengtang.
Hu Tao had no choice but to ask Zhongli to take private work to pay back the money.
Ten thousand Mora, this price is really expensive.
But those who usually come to see Zhongli are not short of money, so Master Hu probably has something to gain.
"Well, just pass the message on for me and send the bill to the General Affairs Department."
Wang Hao took out his seal.
Just like Zhongli can hang up the account of Wangsheng Hall, Wang Hao can also hang up the account of General Affairs Department.
Just deduct it from next month's salary.
It just adds more work for the financial staff.
The Insignificant Master took the seal and quickly completed the operation. Then he smiled and extended his hand to Wang Hao, "Mr. Zhongli is in the backyard. Please follow me."
Ten thousand Mora was enough for her to smile sincerely.
In particular, these 10,000 Mora can be used to support Zhongli Keqing.
Follow the True Lord of Insignificant Things into the side door, through the lobby, and into the backyard.
In an instant, it seemed that the noise of Feiyunpo had faded away.
There is only the rustling of bamboo leaves in the wind and the cheerful chirping of summer birds.
In a small courtyard, green vines spread over the fence. In a corner of the courtyard stood a stone table with four stone benches beside it.
There was a teapot on the stone table. There should be hot tea in the teapot, and steam was rising from the mouth of the pot.
The teapot comes with four teacups, but now only three are on top, as one has been taken.
A young man in gorgeous clothes was holding a teacup, seemingly sipping tea or appreciating the scenery.
The Insignificant Master knocked on the gate with a ruddy face, and then said, "Guest Zhongli, we have a visitor."
In the small courtyard,
The distracted young man seemed to come back to his senses, looked towards the door, and smiled: "It turns out to be young friend Wang Hao, please come in."
The True Lord, Not Worth Mentioning, nodded at Wang Hao and then stepped back.
This was paid for, she would not disturb him. Wang Hao walked into the courtyard and came to Zhongli, who had already poured him some tea.
[Zhongli personally pours tea, and can brag about it for the rest of his life. 】
[Even if you are an immortal, you may not have tasted the tea brewed by the Emperor. ]
[To be honest, as a fan of Emperor Jun, I am a little jealous of Wang Hao now. ]
[Same as jealousy.]
[Hahaha, I remembered a sentence, 'Zhongli, go kowtow to Xiao Shangxian.' 】
【Xiao: Brothers, you are sweating profusely. 】
【…】
Seeing Zhongli pouring tea for Wang Hao, the comments were very envious.
This is the Emperor.
Equivalent to the supreme leader.
Even though he hides his real name, everyone in the barrage knows his identity.
Spend ten thousand dollars and let the supreme leader pour you a cup of tea.
I can wake up laughing even from my grave.
"What's the matter with you coming here this time, my friend?"
After pouring tea for Wang Hao, Zhongli began to ask.
After spending all of his salary, bonuses and other income on buying rare treasures,
Zhongli has already started receiving customers on a regular basis.
From flower and bird markets to antique shops, and occasionally ancient book restoration, as long as it was profitable, Hu Tao would take any job he could get.
Zhongli wanted to "resist", but... there were too many debts and he couldn't refuse.
Therefore, Zhongli was not surprised at Wang Hao's arrival.
"I came here this time because I really have something to ask you, sir. I heard that you have a wide range of knowledge and are very knowledgeable about rare treasures."
Wang Hao plays the role of an ordinary visitor. Since the Emperor doesn't want others to know his identity, Wang Hao won't expose it. Everyone just continues to act.
"I wonder if Mr. Zhongli has ever heard of the [Hundred Taboos]."
When Zhongli heard Wang Hao say this name, he didn't react at all.
As soon as Wang Hao walked in, he smelled that scent.
The talisman with no taboos was originally given to people by the Emperor and the immortals for them to use in seeking the immortals and asking for the truth.
To put it bluntly, this thing is a kind of certificate given by immortals to mortals. It is nothing big, it is just a proof of identity.
"[A Hundred Taboos], I haven't heard this name for a long time."
Zhongli looked calm, took a sip of tea, and continued,
"The [Hundred No Taboos Scroll] sounds very powerful, but in fact, it is just a form of identity proof. If you go to the immortal cave with the [Hundred No Taboos Scroll], you can be received by the immortal, that's all."
From his words, he showed that he did not think highly of this kind of talisman.
'That's all?'
Wang Hao frowned slightly and couldn't help but question in his heart.
The comments said that the future Fatui executive, Young Master, relied on the Unforbidden Talisman to even release the demon god Osel.
And now Zhongli Keqing actually said, that’s all?
"Isn't there any danger in this Hundred Taboos Talisman? For example, releasing monsters or something?"
Wang Hao couldn't help but ask.
Zhongli looked at Wang Hao with a smile in his eyes.
"Do you know what the essence of the Hundred Taboos is?"
Wang Hao shook his head in confusion.
If he knew, he wouldn't have to spend 10,000 Mora to find Zhongli.
"The essence of the Hundred Taboos Talisman is a kind of identity certificate."
Zhong Kai explained,
"Thousands of years ago, when immortals and mortals had not yet separated, many immortals were active in the mortal world.
Many mortals have won the recognition of immortals with their wisdom and character, so the immortals have granted them the talisman of no taboos. "
He paused slightly, as if he was organizing his words, and also as if he was giving Wang Hao time to digest and understand.
"Holding the Scroll of No Taboos, you can walk in the mountains and wilderness, visit the caves of immortals, and the evil spirits dare not invade. The prohibitions are unstoppable. It can protect yourself and you can also visit the immortals to ask questions."
The talisman of no taboos is a kind of qualification.
Wang Hao understood a little, but was still a little confused.
Seeing this, Zhongli could only continue to explain: "You just asked the question, can the Hundred Unrestricted Talisman release monsters? The answer is yes, it can."
Wang Hao widened his eyes. It really is possible.
"Because it is a form of identification, it represents the immortal, or even the emperor. So since it can open the immortal's magic ban and allow mortals to enter the immortal cave, it can naturally open the immortal seal and let the monsters inside come out."
Being able to enter means being able to open the door.
If the door can be opened, the things inside can naturally come out.
Wang Hao frowned: "Then isn't this thing very dangerous?"
Hearing this, Zhongli smiled and shook his head: "It's dangerous, but not really."
Wang Hao didn't understand again. It was you who clearly said that the monster could be released.
“For example, if you use the talisman of no taboos to explore the forbidden area of the immortal cave, the forbidden area will be able to identify you as the person holding the talisman and open to you, easily and conveniently.
But if it is a monster seal, then the immortals must have set up countless defenses. A Hundred No Taboos Talisman cannot shake it at all, unless there are countless and continuous Hundred No Taboos Talismans accessing the magic ban, causing loopholes in the operation of the ban, and mistakenly thinking that the immortals are dealing with the monsters inside, the ban will be opened. "
[I understand. The magic ban is an electronic lock, and the "No Taboos" is a dynamic password. The electronic lock of the immortal cave and the "No Taboos" match, so it can be opened in one go. Although the "No Taboos" can also open the electronic lock of the monster seal, the passwords do not match, so a large number of unlocking secrets need to be tried to force the lock open.]
[No, it shouldn't be an electronic lock, it should be an information lock. When opening the immortal cave, the Hundred Taboos Talisman is the password. When opening the monster ban, the Hundred Taboos Talisman is a disguised virus.]
[Can you please stop giving random examples? I understood it all, but now that you guys give me examples, I am confused again.]
[In short, the Hundred No Taboos Talisman is an ID card. The seal of the immortal can be opened with the ID card. The immortal cave can directly recognize your ID card and open the door for you, while the seal of the monster cannot recognize it. However, you can use a large number of ID cards to disguise yourself as an immortal and trick the seal into opening the door.]
[Now I seem to understand it again. ]
【…】
As Zhongli explained, Wang Hao could see the comments from the netizens.
And Wang Hao gradually understood something.
The "Talisman of No Taboos" is an identity certificate given by the immortals. With this certificate, one can freely travel to some secret realms of the immortals.
In general secret realms, one can pass directly with the talisman without any taboos, but this is not allowed in dangerous places.
No, because the identities of the Hundred Taboos Talisman are not enough, but the identities are not enough to make up for it.
As long as there are a large number of talismans with no taboos, the seal can be opened.
"No wonder the comments said that in the future, the Fatui executive can use the 100-point taboo talisman to release Osel."
"It's not that the seal was lifted, it's that the seal was tricked open."
'The Hundred Taboos Talisman cannot touch the Emperor's seal, but it can trick a little.'
"There is no problem with the seal itself, so Osel can be suppressed a second time."
Wang Hao quickly sorted out the ideas in his mind.
Then, Wang Hao asked the most crucial question: "Mr. Zhongli, can the Hundred Taboos Talisman be transformed?"
"Oh?" Zhongli became interested and put down the teacup in his hand. "Although the Hundred No Taboos Talisman is not a high-level talisman, it has a high symbolic meaning and is indeed difficult to modify. However, tell me how you want to modify it first, and then I will see if I can do it."
Collecting money from people and helping them get rid of disasters,
Since Zhongli has accepted the consulting fee of 10,000 Mora from Wang Hao, he will not regret it.
He will handle this matter with great professional ethics.
"Well……"
Wang Hao pondered over what kind of effect he wanted.
First of all, there shouldn’t be a lot of modifications on the surface to avoid fooling the masses into not being able to recognize them.
Secondly, the Hundred Taboos Talisman should also have the ability to seal.
Otherwise, it would be bad if the monster (demon) is really released but there is no means to counter it.
"I want to add a countermeasure to the Hundred Taboos Talisman without outsiders noticing..."
Wang Hao told Zhongli all his ideas.
[I think I understand.]
[We told Wang Hao about Osel, so Wang Hao is already planning Osel's plot. ]
[Tampered with the Hundred Unrestricted Taboos Scroll and released Osel, but not all of them.]
[You can even add countermeasures and severely harvest Osel. ]
[Tsk tsk tsk, Wang Hao's vision is indeed far-sighted. ]
[Pah, it mainly depends on us. ]
[Yes, it’s all our credit.]
After listening to Wang Hao's request to Zhongli, the barrage quickly reacted and realized that Wang Hao was preparing to counter the whirlpool demon god Osel.
The comments were filled with noise, but Zhongli remained silent and pondered.
To be honest, Wang Hao’s request was not high for him. If he were the King of Rock, he could do it just by raising his hand.
But if Zhongli is a guest official and has some extraordinary means, he cannot use them.
Under Wang Hao's gaze,
Zhongli tapped his fingertips on the stone table for a while before speaking:
"If we want to achieve the level you mentioned, we have to modify the underlying runes of the Hundred Taboos Talisman and reconstruct the runes.
Change the fixed rune sequence to a variable rune sequence.
This way, when necessary, the Hundred No Taboos Talisman can be directly transformed into another talisman to achieve the counter-effect you mentioned."
Wang Hao's eyes lit up when he heard this. Although he didn't understand anything, he was filled with joy and bowed down:
"Please teach me, sir."
