Chapter 146 The Story of Month by Month (Happy New Year’s Eve)

After Gan Yu left.

Xiangling's voice sounded: "Everyone, I just thought of something. I just saw the True Lord and I remembered it. Is this Kitchen God also an immortal?"

Keqing thought: "It's possible. I dare not say yes or no, but the possibility is indeed very high."

"Then we should ask the immortal for help. I think the master may be able to help."

"Master, you mean that your teacher is an immortal?"

Xiangling nodded: "She is at Yujingtai. I will take you to find her."

Yujingtai.

Xiangling shouted loudly: "Master——!"

They walked up to a kind old woman.

At this time, a Qianyan Army member came over and informed Keqing that Ningguang had something to see her. He said goodbye and left here.

"Grandma Ping actually knows Keqing's grandfather?"

"That's great!" At this time, Grandma Ping sighed, and then smiled at everyone, "Your idea of ​​using the stone as a clue to investigate is absolutely correct. It is indeed related to the Kitchen God, and the secret of the Kitchen God is hidden in it."

Then his eyes lit up: "The theme of this year's Moon Festival is food and mountains and rivers that Ningguang and I have designated. Recently, all the chefs who plan to compete are making serious preparations. Paimeng's guess is not impossible."

After hearing this, Grandma Ping sighed with emotion,

"Well, the boulder appeared, so you launched an investigation. You all guessed right. I do know the Kitchen God you mentioned. However, it happened a long, long time ago. The Zhuyue Festival is a ceremony of the immortal family, and the people of Liyue cannot

Fairy affairs, however, also imitated this ritual and evolved into many festivals in the name of chasing the moon."

"On a day when the moonlight is beautiful, everyone gathers together, drinks fine wine and tea, tastes delicious food, and celebrates the joy of reunion. Later, Emperor Yanwang would commemorate a friend and unified these various festivals with the word Zhuyue

.Looking at the earth through the sky, swearing by the moon, remembering the past and thinking about the present, and having reunions and joy, this is the Moon-Chasing Festival."

"Of course, everyone in Liyue is my old friend. At that time, her grandfather was as old as her and was still a young man."

"Yeah, all the things in the past are really nostalgic. Speaking of which, Keqing is actually investigating this matter. That kid is very persistent and will go all out for what he believes in. It makes everyone energetic. I really want to help.

She lends a helping hand.”

To Grandma Ping, everything in Liyue is like her most precious bonsai. She has watched the country become more and more beautiful and prosperous with her own eyes, and watched generations of people grow up and pass away.

The cycle of life and death is just like that.

"Everyone, I was just thinking of sending someone to invite you, but you guys came here."

"why is it like this"

"Very well. Everyone, you are actually free to come and visit me today." Grandma Ping smiled kindly and glanced at Wang Daoyi. Seeing that he didn't seem to be ready to speak, she didn't say hello specifically.

After Keqing left, Grandma Ping said with a smile:

Xiangling also looked excited: "Moreover, many people go home for reunion dinner during the Zhuyue Festival. Recently, everywhere is very lively. When there are more people, the festive atmosphere becomes more vigorous."

Keqing held up her hands, as if thinking: "It should have occurred naturally, and our swords and guns have no effect on it."

Grandma Ping looked at the serious look on this man's face, then at the rice cooker he was holding, and smiled: "That's right, when the earth regains its vitality and thousands of families light up their furnaces, He will come back.

"

Keqing frowned and thought: "The statue will draw power from the people. If the Kitchen God is in charge of fire and cooking, could it be that people's efforts in cooking will be passed on to the Kitchen God statue."

Grandma Ping smiled kindly and said, "Xiang Ling is here."

Xiangling: "Really? Then the good master must also miss the Kitchen God very much. I think your tone of talking about the Kitchen God is like talking about a very close friend."

"The emperor has always paid attention to tradition. Unfortunately, from now on, the inheritance of tradition can only be done by us descendants."

"Do you want to know who the emperor's friend is?"

"I also want to see that stone. Please take me over to have a look. Maybe the truth will come to light just by looking at it." With a little emotion in her tone, Grandma Ping casually glanced at Guo Ba, who was playing with Wang Daoyi.

continued.

Paimon smiled and said: "The excitement in Liyue can cause the stone to crack. Does that mean that when the excitement reaches a certain level, the stone will explode completely?"

"There is a crack in the corner of the stone, but we can't tell what's inside yet."

Ke Qing: The twisted imperial chef.

So, everyone went to the stone statue again.

At this moment, Guo Ba also jumped to say hello to Grandma Ping. Obviously, Guo Ba was very happy to see someone familiar.

But Keqing, who left before, has been waiting here for a long time.

Not paying attention to everyone's reaction, Xiangling smiled and said:

"Master, how are you doing at home these days?"

Grandma Ping smiled slightly: "This is because all kinds of things among the people are the source of the Kitchen God's power. The heat of cooking, the joy of reunion, haha, please work harder, I believe the truth will be revealed soon."

"Xiang Ling's master is Grandma Ping?!"

Then, Xiangling asked: "Hello! Master, we have something to ask you. Do you know the Kitchen God?"

"Did someone secretly smash it?" Pamon wondered.

Grandma Ping asked: "Ke Qing, what has happened to the boulder?"

Wang Daoyi hugged the rice cooker and said softly: "The devil is immortal. When the land regains its vitality, the Kitchen God may return to the world in some way."

Paimon looked confused: "The Kitchen God, Kitchen God, is said in the book to be the god in charge of eating. Could it be that the stone is cracked because someone is working hard to cook?"

Although I don't worship gods, I have figurines of gods at home.

"Of course I know. So, it's the Moon Festival recently. I see, do you want to inquire about the Kitchen God?"

"Friend? Could it be the Kitchen God?" Ying asked.

“This is really unexpected”

Grandma Ping smiled and nodded, "Well, she is still so sharp. There are not so many coincidental and lost festivals in the world. Of course, former friends are all the same thing. The Kitchen God is also my good friend, but unfortunately for some reasons,

The Kitchen God is no longer there, and at the same time, he has also disappeared from people’s memories.”

Grandma Ping seemed to be recalling the past, "They, grandfather and grandson, were carved from the same mold. They persisted in everything seriously and had the courage to practice."

"Yes, something happened recently. We are investigating." Keqing nodded and told the old man in front of her about the recent investigation.

For a moment, both Paimon and Keqing were a little surprised.

Grandma Ping smiled kindly and said: "The Kitchen God has made a lot of contributions to Liyue. The emperor always attaches great importance to it. It is also a kind of affection to use this season to remember the old friend. I guess those festivals may include the Kitchen God Festival that once existed."

"It's a pity that I can't tell the answer directly, because this process is very important to her. Keqing's grandfather also studied the Kitchen God. Is Keqing his granddaughter? These stories, let Keqing, who inherited the mystery, pursue it herself.

Bar."

Keqing was silent for a long time, and then she said something: "Thank you."

"Keqing, you must not underestimate yourself. If there are thoughtful people in future generations who care about these traditional rituals, the emperor will be very happy if he knows about it."

"Emperor. Alas." Hearing this word, Keqing shook her head.

Xiangling also smiled and said: "You can't be wrong, right, Master."

"Hahahaha, you might as well give it a try."

On the other side, Wang Daoyi continued to play with Guo Ba, listening to everyone's conversation, and said to Guo Ba: "Guo Ba, everyone admires you!"

Guo Ba tilted his head and showed a puzzled expression: "Luh~"
