"Master Ouyang, isn't this obvious?"

Hu Tao pointed at the big cat in Ouyang's arms that seemed to be coquettish, and her tone became more serious.

"Zhongli is very important to Shengshengtang. I hope Master Ouyang can give a reasonable explanation."

Let me explain it to you!

Ouyang felt a little toothache.

"Zhongli is a guest at your Palace of Purity, not a guest at my family. How can I possibly know where he has gone?"

With that said, Ouyang raised Ruotuo and continued to explain.

"And you see, Garfield ran out suddenly, and I don't know what happened in the meantime. This is a military camp, and I won't keep pets here.

You can ask Shen He about this."

Shen He, who was suddenly cueed, was also confused.

But she, who also didn't know the identities of Ruo Tuo and Zhong Li, responded naturally.

"Yes, this cat usually follows Gui Chuanyu."

"is that so?"

Hu Tao tilted her head and looked at Ouyang and Shen He with a look of distrust.

At this moment, Ruo Tuo also seemed to realize that something was wrong with the atmosphere at the scene.

He was originally very excited to come and tell the good news,

By the way, let’s talk about re-signing the contract.

But now it seems that the timing of his appearance is a bit wrong.

He nimbly jumped onto Ouyang's shoulder and put his head against Ouyang's ear.

"Shouldn't I come now?"

"...It doesn't matter. We'll talk about it later."

After briefly replying to Ruo Tuo in his mind, Ouyang looked at Hu Tao, thought about it, and said.

"Otherwise, you also know that Zhongli likes to travel around. Liyue is so big, so he might be there.

How many more days will you wait?

Maybe he will come back in a few days."

"But, without him in charge of the Hall of Rebirth, it will greatly affect the business!"

Hu Tao said it seriously, which made Ouyang nervous.

"Business at Xiangshengtang has been very good recently?!"

This is a big deal!

Shengshengtang operates in the funeral industry. If the business is booming, there is no telling what big things may have happened in Liyue Harbor.

But obviously Ouyang's thinking was wrong, Hu Tao said it matter-of-factly.

"That's not true, but I recently wanted to go out to advertise. It would be inconvenient if there is no one in the Rebirth Hall."

"...I think you should wait for two days..."

"Oh well."

Hutao thought about it for a moment, then glanced at the big cat that had jumped behind Ouyang. Although she still felt that something was wrong about this matter, she couldn't make blind guesses without evidence.

After much deliberation, I had no choice but to go back first.

Soon, Shen He sent Hu Tao out and calmed down Qian Yanjun who was alarmed.

Only Ouyang and Ruotuo were left in the military tent.

"...What happened just now?"

"Hu Tao, the master of the Rebirth Hall, is looking for her guest Morax. When you went to find him, was Hu Tao by your side?"

"Oh, yes, I couldn't find Morax that day, so I had to squat near the Hall of Rebirth.

So when I met him, Hutao was by his side."

"So, Morax is a guest of the Rebirth Hall. He disappeared for several days without any reason, and Hall Master Hu became anxious."

After having a rough understanding of what happened, Ruotuo no longer dwelled on it, and his emotions became excited again.

"Ouyang, thank you very much for the Pure Heart Mantra you taught me. My wear and tear has slowed down now..."

Ruo Tuo, who was excited in his heart, crackled and said,

Ouyang, who had already talked to the uncle before, actually knew almost everything.

But he could see the excitement in Ruotuo's heart,

So I didn't interrupt him,

Let Ruotu vent his emotions.

"...So to thank you, let's sign a new contract? How about just signing it for a thousand years?"

Let me go, I don’t even know if I can live that long, so why don’t you just extend the contract period for me?

When Ouyang heard this, he looked at Ruo Tuo with a strange look.

Why do two people like this kind of "selling one's body contract"?

Yan Fei was like this before, and Ruo Tuo is like this now.

Is it the nature of "animals"? They like to find their masters?!

What shocked Ouyang even more was that after Ruo Tuo finished speaking, a seal floated out from his forehead. This was a seal that linked his soul.

At this moment, as long as Ouyang reaches out, he can integrate this seal into his soul. This contract method is already the method used when Ruotuo and Morax signed the contract thousands of years ago.

The highest specification of the contract!

Ouyang was not shocked by Ruo Tuo's approach, but he was shocked that if the seal was to be used as a contract medium, it needed to be a physical entity.

"You...this is the true body?"

"Well, according to my current state, there is no risk that I will lose control due to wear and tear in the past few hundred years, so I came out in my true form."

Do you want a "pet" that can fight Morax back and forth?

Don't be a fool!

but!

Things cannot be calculated in this way, only immediate benefits are considered, so naturally we should take it first.

But all the gifts given by fate have already been marked with a secret price.

Ouyang looked at the seal that exuded pure light and couldn't bear to do it.

"Ruo Tuo, judging from the seal, you have already escaped from Morax's contract. It is rare to regain freedom, so why do you still accept the bondage?"

"I believe you can bring more miracles. Just like now, the Pure Heart Spell you passed on can help me delay the erosion of wear and tear. Maybe you will have better ways to deal with wear and tear in the future, so won't I also benefit from it?

?”

Ruotuo spoke very seriously. He continued: "I could only wait for the end of my destiny in the dark underground. Without you, I would only have the path of death. But now I see hope, so I am willing to give everything."

Go take a gamble on that future."

There is nothing more difficult than death and entering reincarnation.

Ruo Tuo thought in his mind.

He looked at Ouyang, who was still hesitating, and said with a smile: "Ouyang, I have made money now. I understand this very well, so please accept the contract quickly."

"Ruo Tuo, I will definitely go traveling in the future. I actually don't have much feelings for your family, it's just my responsibility.

You have protected Gui Chuanyu for twenty years. When he grows up, it will be up to him to decide the future path of your family.

Therefore, as far as I am concerned, you don’t need to sign a long-term contract with me at all, and I don’t need you to pay that much.”

"It's okay, aren't you traveling? I'll accompany you!"

The atmosphere became quiet,

Ouyang stretched out his hand towards the contract seal, but his eyes kept looking at Ruo Tuo, and he decided to accept the contract.

But some things still need to be explained first.

"Ruo Tuo, I'm very grateful that you are willing to do this, but I don't know what my future path will be.

I can only promise you that if one day you want to leave, as long as you say so, I will let you go."

"OK!"

grip--

After the final confirmation, Ouyang held the seal, a flash of light flashed, and Ouyang felt an instant surge of power in his soul.
