MM Racing Chapter 340: Ancient Book, Son of the Emperor
Chapter 340: Ancient Book, Son of the Emperor
In the second time and space, in the continent of Teyvat, Liyue, at the gate of the Hall of All People.
Yun Jin looked at the old book in his hand. The traces of time on it indicated that it should be hundreds of years old. It was only thanks to the great talent of the person who lost the book that it has been preserved until now.
This morning, right after she finished singing a play, she received an invitation letter from Xingqiu, the second young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, to attend a party at Wanmin Hall. Fortunately, the ceremony of inviting the immortals was over and the Emperor was guiding Wanmin to new business opportunities. When everyone was happy, the older generation let her out to attend the gathering of young people. Otherwise, she would have to find a way to sneak out.
Yun Jin did not open the book she picked up on the road. Even though she was very interested in the story of this ancient book, she would not open the pages and read without the owner's permission.
Looking up at the night sky, Yun Jin planned to go to the nearest Qianyan Army office to hand over the book. This would also be a favor to the guy who lost his things.
Just when Yun Jin was about to leave the entrance of Wanmin Hall with the book in his hand, a green figure walked out of the Wanmin Hall drunkenly. He accidentally tripped and fell to the ground, causing Yun Jin to subconsciously reach out to help the person up, but he was still a step too slow.
"Um, are you okay?"
Yun Jin looked at the cuckolded boy lying at the door of Wanmin Hall with a puzzled expression. She squatted down, put the book in her arms, and stretched out her other hand to help him up.
However, before Yun Jin's hand could reach Wendy, the Wind God in green clothes suddenly stood up. This action made Mr. Yun, who had practiced martial arts for many years, subconsciously stand up and take a step forward, with his other hand open. As long as the opponent made any bad move, the spear would be summoned out instantly and knock the opponent unconscious with one stick.
"Hey? My beautiful sister, have you seen a well-maintained book? I just finished my meal and forgot where I put it. Hey, hey, hey."
At this moment, drunken Wendy looked at Yun Jin with a confused look on her face, and her eyes involuntarily looked at the book in his arms. At the same time, Yun Jin half-doubtedly held the book in front of Wen and asked:
"Is this book yours?"
"Oh, it seems to be mine. I remember there was a sticker on the book."
Wendy's stumbling words made Yun Jin's mouth twitch.
Yun Jin looked at the drunken guy in front of her, who was startled and frightened twice. Even if she had a good temper, she had no choice but to turn the ancient book in her hand over. A sticker with the wind element mark appeared on the lower right corner of the back of the book.
Looking at the stickers on the book, Yun Jin's doubts were mostly dissipated, and the final step of the test came out of his mouth.
"Sir, are you sure this book is yours? Do you need to go to the Qianyan Army to confirm it? That way it will be easier to verify it."
"No... no need, this book is mine. If you don't believe me, you can ask the people who came with me."
There was a flash of deep helplessness in Wendy's drunken eyes, and at the same time, she used the wind element to pull over an old man who owed a bill.
After receiving the reminder from the wind element, Zhongli, who had finished his meal in the hall and recorded his account with Master Mao at the North Country Bank, walked to the door helplessly and looked at Yun Jin who looked surprised and said:
"We appreciate Mr. Yun's kindness. This ancient book does belong to my friend. If you don't mind, you can take it and read it."
"How can this be possible? Besides, I have to report this book to the Qianyan Army and then notify the owner. Since Mr. Zhongli is here and has made a promise, I don't need to speculate too much. It is already a very good thing to return this book to this gentleman."
Zhongli looked at the back of the book in front of him. Although he didn't know why Wendy did this, he heard from a drunkard who was secretly urging him to give the book away. He had no choice but to use his eloquence to successfully make Mr. Yun accept this unexpected gift.
Looking at Yunjin who was brought upstairs by Xiangling, Zhongli also looked at Wendy who had sobered up from her drunken state with suspicion, and said in a somewhat unfriendly tone:
"Can you tell me why you did this? After all, the free and unfettered God of Wind would not do something without a purpose."
"Ahahaha, Zhongli, what are you doing standing there? Let's go after dinner. If you don't hurry up, you won't be able to catch up with me."
At this moment, Wendy used his special skill of running away, as if he did not hear the voice from Zhongli. He just turned around and jogged. Although the sound was not loud or soft, it was heard by the people around him.
Helpless, Zhongli had to find an opportunity to interrogate her in the wilderness, so he raised his foot and chased after Wendy.
……
At this time, outside the door of the last private room on the fifth floor with the best soundproofing, Yun Jin looked at the book in her hands, took a deep breath, and her long black hair swayed with her movements.
Holding the book in his arms, Yun Jin reached out and knocked on the door. When he heard no response from inside, he remembered that every private room in Wanmin Hall had a very good soundproofing effect. No matter how messy it was, no sound would be heard. Except for the people inside who didn't pay attention to the sound after knocking on the door, basically no sound could be heard.
Of course, the premise is that the other party is not the user of the Eye of God or someone who is ridiculously powerful. Even if Mr. Yun is not paying attention now, he can still hear the subtle chaotic sounds inside.
Yun Jin saw that no one opened the door and there was no response when she knocked. She immediately suspected that something had happened in the private room, so she took out the key Xiangling gave her without hesitation and opened the door.
The door creaked open and the bright lights in the room illuminated the scene inside. Yun Jin's ruby eyes reflected the image of Ye Li being pinned down by Hu Tao and trying hard to stuff the dark food into his mouth.
The sound of the door opening had already attracted everyone's attention. Xingqiu's reaction was so fast that it was only once in his life. He turned into a gust of wind and came to Yunjin. He opened his fan like a gentleman, supported the door frame with one hand, and said with a smile on his face:
"It is a blessing for us that Mr. Yun accepted the invitation and came. Don't worry about their behavior. It is normal."
Seeing that Xingqiu was not worried at all about the two people on the ground who seemed to be wrestling but were actually stuffing each other with dark food, Yun Jin, who was familiar with Xingqiu, naturally understood the other party's intentions. This matter was at most just a game to liven up the atmosphere.
"Master, there are new guests coming. Aren't you going to greet them?"
"Shouldn't you, a subordinate, be in charge of this matter? Isn't it enough for me, the hall master, to be in charge of the welcome?"
"Then why don't you put down the food you are cooking?"
"Hehehe, you finally found an opportunity for revenge. Do you think this little trick can help you escape the punishment I, the Hall Master, will give you?"
Ye Li felt terrible. He thought he could use a spoon to slap the food far away and end this ridiculous dispute. However, there was no wind in the closed private room. As luck would have it, the box of the dark food was blown into Hu's hands.
Ye Li had reason to doubt that, apart from the drunkard poet, no one else could do such a thing and would be so idle as to do such a boring thing to amuse himself.
……
"Hahaha~ I didn't expect things to turn out like this. The source of all evil turned out to be Xiangling's attempt to get Mr. Yeli to try out new dishes."
"Okay, Sister Yunjin, stop asking Brother Xingqiu these questions. Come over and have dinner."
Yaoyao, who had already sat back in the children's seat, waved to Yunjin, who was chatting with Xingqiu in a friendly manner, to come over and find a seat to sit down. Coincidentally, Xingqiu's seat was right next to him.
On the other side, Ye Li and Hu Tao, who had stopped the battle of dark cuisine, were gnawing on the delicacies brought by Guoba without caring about their image. It was obvious that the battle was "very exhausting" for them.
"Oh, everyone, there is something I want to share with you. This is an ancient book I found at the entrance of the Hall of Rebirth. The original owner of the book also agreed to give it to me. It's a good opportunity for us to read it together."
"Yo yo yo! What book? What book? I want to read it too."
Hu Tao appeared behind Yun Jin in a flash, and his chin, which had just wiped his mouth, was resting on Yun Jin's shoulder. The golden butterfly slowly faded and disappeared behind him.
Yaoyao and Qiqi also put their little heads close to Yunjin and stared at the cover and name on the book with wide eyes.
Xingqiu looked at the ancient book that Yunjin took out from the God's Eye space with great interest. Chongyun also put his head close to Xingqiu and put his hands on the dining table to center his figure.
Six people huddled together and looked at a book that had not yet been opened. Ye Li, who didn't care what the book was, suddenly felt an ominous feeling. At the same time, Qi Qi also read out the name of the book.
"【Tianheng Ancient Cloud Records, Adventures of the Emperor's Son】"
With a snap! The sound of delicious food falling on the plate was loud.
