"After that, without her friend's company, she gradually put down her guzheng, and even her appearance changed, returning to the mortal world little by little, living the life she has now."
Hearing this, Paimon couldn't help but ponder, what does this have to do with the person they were looking for? Wait, using a guzheng, musical sounds, could it be that person is the so-called True Lord of Song and Dust?
"It seems you've guessed the answer. I estimate the person you're looking for is her, and she is now Granny Ping, whom you know. I believe she must have saved someone who was drowning while playing."
Upon hearing it was Granny Ping, Paimon's eyes widened. What was going on? How could it be Granny Ping? She couldn't imagine an immortal having such a story.
"If you want to verify it, you can ask her directly. I don't know if she has let go of the past, nor do I know if she will be angry about it now."
The few of them exchanged glances and immediately made a decision to go and verify with Granny Ping. It would be too hilarious if they found the wrong person.
"I'll go too. It's a good chance to have a chat with A'Ping. I haven't seen her in a long time."
The perspective shifted, and they quickly returned to Liyue Harbor. When they arrived, they didn't see the giant immortal crane, but a beautiful woman wearing glasses.
Three young and beautiful girls sat around a tea table, as if everything had returned to the past, with the three of them still discussing some issues.
"What's going on? Can someone tell me what happened?"
Paimon looked at the scene with a bewildered expression, while Lu Ze frowned, instantly seeing the problem.
"I'm afraid Cloud Retainer doesn't know that Guizhong has been revived. That's why she's seeing the young Granny Ping and her friend Guizhong."
Hearing the commotion, Cloud Retainer slowly turned her head, looking at Ganyu with a hint of blame in her eyes, saying:
"Ganyu, why don't I know about Guizhong's revival? Are you all hiding it from me?"
Ganyu was somewhat at a loss. Since that time, she hadn't returned to Jueyun Karst. How could she have brought you the news?
Although a little displeased, Cloud Retainer still looked at everything with a smile. Wasn't this good? Suddenly, she also had an idea to stay in Liyue Harbor for a long time.
"Granny Ping, can we ask you a question?"
Ying asked softly, and the latter nodded in agreement.
After recounting the story, Granny Ping pondered for two seconds and then said:
"That was indeed me. During that time, I was constantly refining the songs I created, striving for perfection.
And that day, the song had reached its perfect state, but I had no audience to play it for. The drowning person was indeed saved by me. I never expected it would turn into this story."
Granny Ping couldn't help but sigh at how quickly time had passed. It felt like yesterday, but the person had returned, and that was what mattered.
"Then I'd like to hear the song you composed for me."
Guizhong was a little curious. After all her hard work, how good did the song sound?
"There will be a chance. During the Lantern Rite, I'll play it for you. It'll be lively then, and since you like liveliness, we can go and have fun together."
Speaking of fun, Lu Ze thought of something. If only the people of Liyue celebrated the Lantern Rite, it would be too monotonous. He wanted to see people from the four nations gather here.
However, time was probably not enough, as Inazuma was quite far.
But if they could communicate and get the gods of the four nations to help, perhaps this grand event could be realized.
He acted as soon as he thought of it. Lu Ze quickly devised a rough plan in his mind. If he used Void Transmission Anchors to open a portal, that would work.
It would be not only convenient and fast but also wouldn't waste the power of the Four Archons.
Meanwhile, having received the answer, the group was eager to find Uncle Dvorak and tell him everything.
Coincidentally, Lu Ze could use this time to quickly go back and make arrangements. He imagined they would also want to see people from different nations celebrating the Lantern Rite here.
He quickly returned to the shop and, as soon as he entered, saw Elysia holding a small pink dress and chasing Mobius furiously.
"My Doctor, my dear Doctor, just wear it for a bit! It's just a small pink dress. I don't think you'll refuse, will you? You won't refuse the request of such a cute girl, right?"
But Mobius absolutely refused. Seeing Lu Ze return, she quickly hid behind him and said:
"Lu Ze, help! Quickly control your Elysia. She's starting to go crazy, and soon we'll all be in trouble, friend or foe."
Elysia slowly turned around, her eyes emitting an abnormal glow. Holding the small pink dress, she said with a smile:
"Lu Ze~ My dear Lu Ze, would you please step aside? Mobius, don't be a sore loser and hide behind my dear Lu Ze. Is that okay? That's not okay!"
Looking at the two of them, Lu Ze felt a bit troubled. Elysia was always determined to make Mobius wear a small pink dress, claiming that small pink dresses were the cutest, and that those green and black things were just too ugly.
"I'm not going out. You're too scary."
Lu Ze said helplessly:
"Elly, Mobius doesn't want to wear it, so don't force her. However, I must say, when will Mobius fulfill someone's small wish? Don't be so resistant. It's just a small pink dress."
In the first half, Mobius was a bit smug, saying! Don't force her to wear it! But in the second half, she deflated completely.
"I also said, Mobius, when will you fulfill someone's small wish?"
"I... No! Absolutely not!"
Lu Ze quietly retreated from the battlefield, letting the two of them resolve it themselves. It was likely that Elysia wouldn't give up until Mobius wore the small pink dress today.
Perhaps he could take a photo as a memento later.
He went up to the second floor and used the Void Transmission Anchor to quickly reach Inazuma. He only needed to enlarge the range of the Void Transmission Anchor and provide transmission access rights only through the gate to achieve this grand feat.
