Star Rail, My Little Shop on the Train 145
Chapter 145, Hutao: I want to invite everyone to the Lantern Rite
Zhong Li had a meal and sat in a booth by the window, enjoying the night view while savoring his delicious food.
At this time, Hutao and Huohuo entered, each carrying their own food.
The two sat directly opposite Zhong Li.
“Keqing (honorific term for a guest or retainer), let me introduce you, this is Huohuo, a new member of our Wang Sheng Tang.”
Zhong Li nodded slightly.
“I’ve heard about this from General Jingyuan. Welcome, Huohuo.”
Huohuo smiled and greeted Zhong Li.
“Hello, Mr. Zhong Li.”
Hutao lowered her head and took a bite of food, saying,
“Huohuo, if you have any questions about exorcism in the future, you can ask Keqing. He’s very knowledgeable in this area.”
Huohuo looked at Zhong Li with admiration.
Zhong Li said,
“The Tangzhu (Hall Master) is right. If you have any questions in the future, you can come and ask me.”
Huohuo happily nodded in agreement.
The experiences of the past two days made Huohuo very happy. Everyone on the train was very enthusiastic and easy to get along with.
At this moment, a firework went off outside the window.
Seeing the fireworks, Hutao remembered that Liyue’s Lantern Rite was approaching.
“Keqing, Liyue’s Lantern Rite is coming soon!”
Zhong Li nodded slightly.
“Yes, I plan to invite everyone to Liyue to participate in our Lantern Rite soon.”
Hutao said,
“That’s what I was thinking too. I plan to take Star and the others to Dihua Marsh for a stroll. There’s a ruin I’ve never been able to enter; I can’t find the mechanism. Maybe they can figure it out.”
Zhong Li said,
“Alright, let’s eat first. After we finish, we’ll go tell everyone.”
Ye Yun came out of the room.
He had just heard a system prompt indicating that his task was complete.
So he found an excuse to return to the room and claim his task reward.
[Notification! Congratulations, host, for completing the task: Clear a dungeon once.
Reward: Foreign World Guest Invitation x1]
[Notification! New task issued: Complete 10 dungeons.
Reward: Opportunity to open a special large dungeon x1.]
Ye Yun looked at the Foreign World Guest Invitation in his hand.
The last time he obtained this item, he opened a connection with Tivat.
This time, he wondered which world he would connect to.
However, Ye Yun didn’t use it immediately.
He planned to use it in two days; there was no rush.
Ye Yun returned to the scene.
Kafka and姬子 were each feeding two little ones.
Klee and Bailu were around 姬子.
Diona and Hook were around Kafka.
Ye Yun smiled.
“You’ve worked hard.”
姬子 shook her head.
“It’s nothing. I’m used to it; I’m always the one feeding everyone.”
Kafka also indicated that it was fine.
“Diona and Hook are very well-behaved and cute.”
Ye Yun smiled and then sat down to help feed the little ones.
Star, March 7th, Amber, Eula, and Lumine were at another table.
They had set up a table in the sofa lounge area, with large platters of every dish, sitting in a circle eating.
They were discussing where to go tomorrow.
March 7th was a little worried.
“Tomorrow we also have to participate in the Martial Arts Tournament. Won’t we be unable to participate in tomorrow’s dungeon?”
Star was also worried.
“Should we not participate in the Martial Arts Tournament?”
Amber shook her head.
“No, we’ve already signed up. It wouldn’t be good if we didn’t go.”
Lumine thought for a moment and said,
“Let’s see what dungeon it is tomorrow. If it’s not very fun, we’ll go to the Martial Arts Tournament. If it’s fun, we’ll do the dungeon.”
Eula thought for a moment and said,
“No, no, no. Let’s still participate in the Martial Arts Tournament. We’ve already signed up; it wouldn’t be good if we didn’t go. Besides, weren’t you guys planning to show off at the Martial Arts Tournament?”
Star, Lumine, and March 7th realized,
“That’s right! We were going to show off at the Martial Arts Tournament!”
Asmodeus, who was eating, said,
“Show off? Count me in!”
Lumine, thinking about Asmodeus’s strength, said,
“Um, maybe you shouldn’t participate? You’re a bit overpowered.”
Asmodeus said,
(Note: The Chinese text contains a nonsensical string of characters here. I’ve omitted it from the translation as it doesn’t seem to have any meaning.)
“Where am I overpowered? If Star can participate, why can’t I?”
Lumine felt that Asmodeus had a point.
“Fine, tell General Jingyuan later and see if he’ll let you participate.”
Asmodeus gave an OK gesture to show he understood.
Since leaving Celestia, Asmodeus discovered that life could be so colorful and rich.
Before, on Celestia, he was very bored every day, either strolling in the garden or checking the False Heaven.
Paimon and Yun Li hit it off immediately. The two sat at the bar counter of a small bar, burying their heads in their food bowls and eating frantically.
Paimon finished a bowl, wiped her mouth, and looked at Yun Li, who was still eating.
“Yun Li, do you want more?”
Yun Li looked up.
“More! Let’s go!”
With these two simple words, Yun Li got up and went to get more food with Paimon.
Yun Li’s first bowl was filled with stir-fried dishes and rice.
For her second bowl, Yun Li decided to eat some skewers. Xiangling had grilled many skewers and placed them on a warming oven. Yun Li went over and took away more than half.
“Skewers~ skewers~ the best skewers~”
Seeing this, Paimon took all the remaining skewers from the warming oven.
Noelle, seeing this, diligently got up and refilled the warming oven with Xiangling’s freshly grilled skewers.
Feixiao and Venti each took a plate of meat to go with their drinks.
Venti finished a bottle of beer in one gulp, letting out a long breath.
“Ah~ so refreshing!”
Feixiao also just finished a bottle of beer.
“This beer is really good. Where did you buy it?”
Venti said,
“I bought it from Ye Yun. Ten bottles for one Star Coin.”
Feixiao said,
“It’s so cheap?”
Venti nodded.
“Yeah, why else would I spend my days here drinking? Come on, don’t just drink, eat some food.”
Feixiao thought for a moment.
“Today you treated me to so much beer, I’ll treat you tomorrow!”
Venti said,
“Okay, it’s a deal! Come on, cheers!”
The two clinked bottles and again drank a bottle of beer in one gulp.
Everyone ate and chatted, the atmosphere was very harmonious and joyful.
Here, there was delicious food, fine wine, friends, and music.
Everyone ate and drank together, gossiped, and played around. This kind of life made everyone very satisfied.
After more than two hours, everyone finished their meal.
Hutao took a megaphone from somewhere.
“Hello, hello, can you hear me? Everyone, my Keqing has an announcement. Everyone, come over here.”
Hearing this, everyone gathered.
Star curiously asked,
“What is it, Hutao?”
Hutao handed the megaphone to Zhong Li.
Zhong Li took it and said slowly,
“As some of you already know, the day after tomorrow is Liyue’s Lantern Rite. I sincerely invite everyone to come and celebrate.”
