Chapter 71 Heavenly Power
"Why do we have to turn around? We should be taking the right route. Isn't Liyue Harbor just ahead?"
Xingqiu looked at Gu Sanqiu with a puzzled look on his face: "What's wrong with you?"
"I'm having a cold."
Gu Sanqiu rolled his eyes: "The problem is that there is something wrong with the people at the port. Are you sure you want to go up?"
"who?"
"Oh yeah, you weren't there the last time Tartaglia and I fought."
Gu Sanqiu suddenly realized: "I just took a look, and those Qianyan soldiers above seem to be the ones who took me away last time."
"But the Qianyan Army stationed at the port is not that group of guys. They specifically sent those people to guard the port. The meaning is obvious, right?"
Xingqiu's forehead was dripping with sweat: "You mean..."
"That's right. Sister Beidou probably lent me the boat and then told everyone about our trip to Guyun Pavilion."
Gu Sanqiu rubbed his brows and said, "Why didn't I think of this at the time? If I had known, I would have just found a place to buy a small boat. Why did I have to ask Sister Beidou to get a good quality one?"
Chongyun held the rudder with a confused look on his face: "So, should we run away now?"
"Fuck off."
Xingqiu snorted coldly, "If we drive over now, we'll just get scolded at best. But if we really run away right under the noses of the Qianyan Army, believe me, we'll be in an even worse situation when we sneak back."
"This... shouldn't be the case."
"Very much."
Xingqiu looked at Gu Sanqiu, who was lying on the deck, as if his soul was out of his body.
"Hey, stop pretending to be dead, get up and think about what to do now."
……_：(′_`」∠):_……
Seeing that Gu Sanqiu was too lazy to even move, Xingqiu knew that this guy was definitely unreliable at this stage.
"Forget it, let's just go straight in. We'll all die together anyway."
Xingqiu was quite open-minded. He drew his sword and pointed it forward: "Deputy Zhang, move forward!"
"Don't suddenly add drama to yourself at a time like this!"
The boat docked, and Gu Sanqiu put his hands in his pockets, with a serious expression and walked past Qianyan Jun without looking away, as if he was a civil servant who had just returned from official duties at sea.
"cough."
A right hand was placed on Gu Sanqiu's shoulder.
"Gu Xiangjun, isn't it a bit inappropriate to just pretend nothing happened and walk away?"
Gu Sanqiu looked at the man next to him and said, "I didn't break any law. The boat was moored according to the rules and regulations. Why are you arresting me?"
"On this."
The Qianyan Army soldier took out a piece of paper that was mainly covered with gold powder and decorated with tiny gemstones .
"Come with us, Gu Xiangjun, Lord Tianquan wants to see you."
"…Can I not go?"
"You probably have to ask Lord Tianquan yourself."
"I've already seen it, so why would I ask?"
"Well... I yelled at law enforcement officers and refused to cooperate with law enforcement. Xiangjun, I will remember this."
"As for the two of you, someone will take you to arrange the next matters later. I hope you can speak your mind and try your best to cooperate with the work of our Qianyan Army."
Xingqiu smiled and asked what he meant by "next matters". It was obvious that they were going to take them in for interrogation!
And the kind that punishes those who resist severely and those who confess severely!
Gu Sanqiu followed Qianyan Army to Yuehai Pavilion dejectedly. The middle-aged came over and bowed.
"Master Xiangjun, long time no see."
"Bu Yun... forget it, it's useless to ask you anyway."
Standing on the lift, the cold wind blew on Gu Sanqiu's handsome face, which made him sober up a little.
It is known that their adventure to Guyun Pavilion (seeking death) was discovered, and then they were called to the territory of a giant boss.
Please, how can I escape successfully?
Solution: You can’t run away, just wait to die.
Stepping into the Qun Yu Pavilion, Gu Sanqiu generously opened the door of the main pavilion and walked in. As expected, he saw a white-haired woman sitting on a chair with her back to him, sipping tea.
"Sister Ningguang."
"sit."
Ningguang put the teacup down, and her golden finger gloves sparkled under the light.
"If you want tea, pour it yourself and play chess with me."
"It's Liyue Millennium again. It's a bit brain-intensive. Can't we try something simpler?"
Gu Sanqiu sat opposite Ningguang and picked up the document on the table and read it carefully.
"Well, as expected, it's another version update. If you were to make a game, you would probably be the only staff member who wouldn't be scolded by the players."
"what are you saying?"
"I didn't say anything, just praised you for your hard work."
"Then why not learn from me."
Ningguang raised her index finger and gently placed the pipe on the tip of her finger, just quietly watching the pipe that was shaking slightly but seemed like it would never fall down.
"finish watching?"
"finish watching."
"Let's get started."
…
A day later, the main pavilion was filled with smoke. Gu Sanqiu frowned and looked at the chessboard in front of him, thinking carefully.
Ningguang on the other side was not much better, and she also entered a serious state. The precious-looking teacup had already been thrown to the ground, and her eyes were only focused on Gu Sanqiu's layout on the chessboard.
"Industry, why do you insist on fighting with Industry and not getting out?"
Ningguang spoke the first words between the two after the game started.
"If you hadn't been so persistent, you might have caused me a lot of trouble. But the interesting thing is that now I don't seem to have a place to plan some big moves against you . This is the most interesting part."
Ningguang looked at the expressionless Gu Sanqiu with interest: "You know, you make me feel like a giant turtle right now, a giant turtle that has retracted its head into its shell and is impossible to eat."
"I'm not a big turtle, sis."
Gu Sanqiu stretched out his index finger to ignite the flame, took a deep breath and a smile of success appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"I am Xuanwu."
Gu Sanqiu revealed his trump card: "Endless War Card. Some force majeure will drag Liyue into a long-term war comparable to the Demon God War, and the economies of both sides will suffer a devastating blow at the same time."
"With the support of industry, our economic strength has only been damaged by 50%. Sister, you have to bear 80% of the loss."
"The situation on the field has reversed now, and I am the most powerful one."
Gu Sanqiu started to change the display on the chessboard: "And according to the residual effect of the Endless War Card, the party that lacks industry wants to increase the cost of all aspects of the economy by 30%."
"Also, I will implement commercial suppression measures against your Liyue in the next round. I will try to set up trade checkpoints in addition to the operating rights of key commodities, and try to control your economic lifeline."
Gu Sanqiu smiled confidently: "We will also use the means of dumping goods on you, using low prices to suppress the survival scope of local products, and suppress your local industries so that they will never get ahead."
"In addition to commercial policy pressure, we will unilaterally conduct a war of public opinion suppression in diplomacy, declaring to the outside world that you are the target of my humanitarian assistance, using this method to cover up my various sinister policies towards you."
"As for the political aspects of espionage, assassination of people with lofty ideals, cultivation of treacherous people, and cultural invasion, I won't go into details. They are a bit complicated, and you should know what they mean."
"Sister, you lose!"
