Chapter 54: Fake Mora?
It was just noon now, so Zhu Yuncheng put on his cloak again and followed his master.
Emperor and Gui Zhong joined the crowd and watched the bustling scene of people coming and going.
Suddenly, Zhu Yuncheng sniffed and seemed to smell a strange fragrance. When he was trying to find out what the strange fragrance was, Gui Zhong in front of him turned around and asked, "Xiao Yun, how did you come up with the idea of opening such a trading market?"
Zhu Yuncheng: "Sister Guizhong, I saw that the population of Guili Market was increasing day by day, and the scope of Guili's markets would not expand. In order to prevent crowding and trampling in Guili City, I ordered the establishment of such a trading market."
In fact, while Zhu Yuncheng was setting up this trading market, he also moved the ceremony stage to an open space outside Guili City and asked his immortal students to build a temple and enshrine the statues of Emperor and Gui Zhong in it, in order to prevent such accidents from happening again.
Now that the temple has been built outside, the people of Guiliji who have come from afar will kneel in front of the temple and worship. Immortals and their disciples will enter the temple, but the Emperor will appear above the temple, and Zhu Yuncheng will also use the power of yin and yang to bless it, allowing the sound to spread far away.
As he walked, the Emperor found a tea stall to sit at, ordered a few cups of tea from the owner and sat down.
"Xiao Yun, have you eaten yet?" The Emperor looked at Zhu Yuncheng and asked, "If you haven't eaten yet, order some. Gui Zhong and I haven't tasted the food down the mountain for a while."
Although the food cooked by the Stove Demon is very delicious, the Emperor prefers some worldly food.
Zhu Yuncheng hadn't remembered to eat lunch yet, but now that the Emperor had spoken, he naturally agreed: "Mr. Zhongli, I will go get some food right away."
After saying this, he stood up and returned to Guili City.
The stalls in this trading market basically sell snacks such as barbecue. If you want to eat regular meals, you have to go back to Guili City.
At this moment, Zhu Yuncheng's nose smelled that strange fragrance again. He looked left and right, and finally locked onto a beautiful figure.
The people from other Guiliji communities around here seemed unable to smell the fragrance.
"What's that smell?" Zhu Yuncheng stared at the pretty red-haired figure. He felt it was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't put his finger on it. In the end, he just looked away and quickly returned to Guili City. He asked the restaurant to prepare a few dishes. After packing them in wooden food boxes, Zhu Yuncheng took the food back to the tea stall.
As soon as he sat down, Zhu Yuncheng heard a voice: "There's something wrong with your Mora! Is it fake?"
Zhu Yuncheng immediately turned his gaze over there. When Mora was first promoted, Zhu Yuncheng had specifically emphasized that the entire Guiliji people must know the importance of Mora, and that no one is allowed to forge, damage, or fail to redeem Mora at the price. If anyone violates this rule, it will be regarded as a violation of the Emperor's Contract and will be punished by being eaten by rocks!
There have been no problems for twenty years, so why did a problem arise today?
Zhu Yuncheng stood up. He wanted to see who dared to forge Mora!
Not only him, but also the people of Guiliji who heard this sentence around him came over curiously. It is human nature to join in the fun, even the humans in Teyvat are no exception.
Zhu Yuncheng is 1.8 meters tall and has a strong build, so he squeezed in easily. He smelled the strange fragrance again, which made him frown.
"You said my Mora was all fake, do you have any evidence?"
"If you don't have any evidence, then you're just saying that my Mora is fake. What are you going to do?"
"Do you believe me? I'll take you to the Currency Bureau and interrogate you face to face?"
What I heard were three consecutive questions. When I looked closely, I saw a woman with red hair and green eyes, wearing a red and yellow robe. She crossed her arms and looked at the barbecue shop owner in front of her with an embarrassed look on her face.
The people of Guiliji around were talking about it.
"This shop owner must have made a mistake. Who dares to imitate Mora?"
"Yes, imitating Mora will result in the punishment of eating rocks."
"Hey, here, I feel like your Mora doesn't feel right to the touch." The shopkeeper explained, "But I just can't feel that it's wrong."
"No, you still dare to say that?" The red-haired woman was relentless. "Come on, go to the Currency Bureau and confront me now!"
"Wait a minute, I was wrong, girl, this barbecue is for you, I don't want Mora anymore."
“Oh, just a few skewers of barbecue?” The red-haired woman sneered, “If you want me to let you go, give me all your Mora.”
"Ah? But..."
"But what, do you want to go to the currency bureau with me?"
At this point, Zhu Yuncheng felt that he couldn't just stand there and watch any longer. He took a few steps forward, came to the stall, reached out to pick up the Moras, and instantly felt something was wrong.
"Who are you?" The red-haired woman frowned and asked as she looked at the cloaked man who suddenly broke in.
"Where are you from, Mora?" Zhu Yuncheng asked.
"Of course I'm here to exchange currency at the currency bureau. Is there any problem?" The red-haired woman stared at the man in the cloak. "Do you also want to confront me at the currency bureau?"
At this time, Emperor Guizhong, Liu Yun and the other two were also attracted over.
"This smell?" Liu Yun frowned, "The monster is deceiving the flower?"
The Emperor nodded slightly: "Yes, that red-haired woman should be a descendant of the Flower Demon God."
Gui Zhong reacted: "The ruling demon god of Qingxupu."
The Demon of Deception, Valif, is the first Deception Flower in the continent of Teyvat, but he is not the father of all the Deception Flowers. Although he is called a Demon, Valif does not teach his people like other Demons. Instead, he encourages them to steal, stealing the children of wild boars in the mountains, stealing bird eggs, stealing the precious jades in the Tianheng Mountain mines, and so on.
Not only did he teach, but he also did it himself. He often went to Tianheng Mountain or Guiliyuan to steal the personal belongings of the Emperor and Guizhong. Finally, the Emperor could no longer tolerate it and directly taught Walif a lesson, forcing the other party to swear an oath that he would never steal anything from Tianheng Mountain or Guiliyuan again for the rest of his life.
When Zhu Yuncheng heard about this demon god, the first thing he thought of was the treasure-stealing group that was spread all over the continent of Teyvat in the future. Could it be that the people of this flower demon god were the predecessor of the piracy group! ?
Back to the topic.
Zhu Yuncheng looked at the red-haired woman who did not flinch, smiled secretly in his heart, then took out a Mora from his arms and handed it to the store owner together with this Mora: "Shopkeeper, please rub it with your hands, what is the difference between these two Moras."
The shopkeeper took it in confusion and just rubbed it with his hands. After rubbing it two or three times, he quickly said, "These two Moras are different. One is very smooth, and the other one is not so smooth."
"That's called hurting your hand." Zhu Yuncheng explained, "Is that Mora the one that hurts your hand?"
"It's this one." The shopkeeper held up the Mora that Zhu Yuncheng had just taken out.
The people of Guiliji around were shocked when they saw this.
"The two Moras are different. Which one is the real Mora?"
