Chapter 813: Visiting an "Old Friend"
Albedo subconsciously stopped after hearing the roar, and Klee next to him also looked in the direction where the sound came from.
"Brother Sanqiu!"
Seeing Little Red Riding Hood waving excitedly, the aggressive Gu Sanqiu subconsciously restrained his breath, landed lightly in front of the two people, and picked up Little Red Riding Hood.
Forget it, forget it. It’s just a matter of beating up Albedo. I can do it in private some time.
And just do it, no reason is needed!
"You guys came so early?"
Albedo explained: "I am responsible for coordinating and supervising the work you entrusted the Alchemy Association to do. In short, I am the contractor for this association's work project and also serve as a quality inspector."
"I think you just want to find an opportunity to sneak out and skip work. Are you not going to complete the mission of the investigation team?"
Gu Sanqiu rolled his eyes. "Why do you have to learn Kaeya when there are so many other things to learn? Don't teach Klee bad things."
He was the one who placed the commission with the Alchemy Association. After all, some entertainment facilities still had to rely on these technical geeks, and currently there were no such talents in the entire Liyue.
Perhaps the missing Ms. Alice could do it, but Gu Sanqiu felt that he probably couldn't afford to hire that lady to work for him.
However, he has already asked Shijinhui to start doing these things. When the time comes, he will feel at ease knowing that their own family members are doing it.
The quality is absolutely guaranteed. In addition, we hire additional people from the Alchemy Association to conduct a minor inspection every seven days and a major inspection every half a month. Combined with the daily maintenance and inspection by the Ten Gold Association, safety is not a problem either.
"Strictly speaking, this activity was approved by the Knights of Favonius, so I am not absent from work or slacking off. I am being sent on a business trip because of my legitimate status."
What a hardcore reason.
I almost forgot that this bastard is also a big shot in the Alchemy Association.
Well, the living kind.
"Okay, let's get back to the point. What are you planning to do here? There must be a special reception desk at Qingce Manor, right? Or do you plan to experience the joy of camping in the wild?"
Albedo looked indifferent, or rather, he was pretending to be calm.
"No, we're here to fry fish."
!
Gu Sanqiu put his arm around Albedo's shoulders, gritting his teeth.
"You are really rude to me, you little brat. Is this something I can say openly?"
Albedo remained calm: "Yes, I have done some research. As long as we are about ten kilometers away and I am watching, Klee's bomb will not affect the construction of Qingce Village."
"To put it simply, I can ensure that the fluctuations of the explosion will not affect the operation of the earth vein energy, nor will it affect Qingce Manor."
"Originally I was only planning to walk seven kilometers, but considering the ancient legend of Liyue Wuwang Slope, I decided to walk a little further."
"Then thank you so much!"
Gu Sanqiu's heart softened when he took a look at Keli's expectant face.
Then they decided to put the blame on Albedo.
"You can't fry fish here. Come with me. We have to talk to the boss anyway."
Gu Sanqiu muttered, "If we're not careful, it won't be fun if that big guy comes and floods Qingce Village. But will that lazy guy really do that?"
Albedo was stunned: "The flooding of Qingce Manor? Who? There is actually a danger of this level that has not been eliminated here? Do you need my help?"
If there really is a hazard of this level, it must be eliminated first, and it does not matter if the means are violent.
"Ah, there's no need to ask for help. After all, strictly speaking, I'm no longer an outsider. I'm a permanent resident of Qingce Village. The only difference between me and ordinary people is that I don't have a Liyue ID card."
Gu Sanqiu flew up: "Did you forget something, such as the purified water that you often use when conducting alchemy research."
"Pure water spirit?"
Albedo suddenly realized: "You are still friends with him?"
Clean water is a special material that alchemists desire. It can often stabilize the structure of elements and improve the purity of materials.
Like all rare materials, this precious thing often exists in extremely small quantities.
If the family does not have a mine, the apprentice basically has no access to such high-grade materials.
Gu Sanqiu forced a smile and said, "It's not a friendship, it's just a historical issue."
"If that person is very irritable when he wakes up, it might be a real vendetta."
Albedo sighed: "Okay, it's a historical legacy, but it doesn't affect your visit to her, because your strength far exceeds hers, is that what you mean?"
"That's not the case."
There's something fishy about the origin of the Pure Water Elf, and it's not certain whether you can defeat it. The main thing is that there might be a lot of trouble after defeating it.
Lotia, the pure water elf and the chief spy of the previous Water God, is suspected of carrying something related to the first Water God.
That should be the case...right?
To be honest, fighting with her is not cost-effective at all.
There are so many people you can practice with, why do you have to find one with potential involvement? Just like the big guys never easily get involved in inexplicable causes and effects.
Especially in this suffocating world, one wrong step could lead to disaster.
"With Klee's destructive power, even if she finds a good place to fry fish, she still has to say hello to the Pure Water Spirit."
Gu Sanqiu explained: "There are not many Thousand Rocks troops stationed at Qingce Manor, not because Liyue doesn't care about these old men, but because the Pure Water Elves are right next to them."
"Although she is a person who doesn't care about worldly affairs, if someone really makes a fuss and disturbs her peace, she will be doomed."
"She just doesn't like to take action. She's not a rookie, so few people dare to cause trouble in Qingce Manor."
"During festivals, the people of Qingce Manor would prepare some tributes for the Pure Water Fairy. As time went by, the reputation spread and the treasure-stealing groups no longer liked to come to this place."
To put it more directly, causing trouble in this place is risky and unprofitable. If you have the ability, you can definitely earn more by exploring the ruins directly.
"That's fine. I'm also worried that there might be some miscommunication issues."
Albedo thought for a moment and said, "Since you have a theoretical feud with them, why don't we go to another place, Guiliyuan, where there are no signs of human activities?"
"Then maybe there are a bunch of treasure-stealing group members lying in a mess inside the ruins we blew up."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and said, "Let's go. It's not a big deal anyway. I just want to have a good chat with that person."
Pure Water Elf, the land master of Qingce Village, or to be more precise, the land aunt. If you want to hold some big events in such a place, it is very necessary to notify the other party.
Although it is not realistic to ask her to participate in the event, maybe I can trick her into buying some clean water to make things look better?
Gu Sanqiu has already thought about the form of the reward. After all, they are all children, so there is no need to be too utilitarian. Just making them happy is enough.
"Then let's go, but if the situation goes beyond my expectations, in simple terms, if the Pure Water Spirit has the intention to take action, I will take action."
Gu Sanqiu touched Keli's little head and said, "Don't worry, I know simple things like this."
You are the Land Lady, right? I am the Jade Emperor of Liyue.
Suddenly, Gu Sanqiu thought of his father's face, which was always plain and hard to understand.
Uh, am I Erlang Shen?
It doesn’t seem right…
