Chapter 88: Law-abiding Incense Burner
Gu Sanqiu never procrastinates on such matters. He jumped off the forging table, walked to the locker, and gently pressed a button next to it.
With the sound of a mechanism, a passage leading to a deeper place appeared. Gu Sanqiu gathered everything that might be needed to make a shield and took the scales in his hand.
"So, what on earth were the ancestors of the Gu family thinking back then? They actually had the ability to build a place here to refine items."
Gu Sanqiu held an ice bag on his head and threw the scales in his hand into the cauldron in front of him. Then he turned on the switch and placed the cauldron into the lava river.
"However, apart from my sister and the others, no one should know that there is a river of underground fire under Liyue Harbor, and the incense worshippers have even set up a workshop inside."
Gu Sanqiu was a little confused after knowing this. The source of the river was not very clear, but it flowed towards the deep sea, which made him feel relieved.
The Gu family built a workshop here. In addition to utilizing the temperature of the underground fire, it is probably also for monitoring the condition of the river to prevent any abnormalities.
Of course, this was only passed down in historical records, but Gu Sanqiu always felt that some ancestor of the Gu family who had lost his mind wanted to do something big.
For example, if some powerful and irresistible enemy invades Liyue Harbor, when the people have been evacuated, the Gu family will use some method to detonate the river of fire flowing through Liyue Harbor, and everyone will be finished.
While Gu Sanqiu was daydreaming, his hands were not idle. He threw ingredients into the cauldron one by one, preparing to stew the dragon scales as if he was making a big pot dish.
As Gu Sanqiu expected, after a short while, the dragon scales showed signs of melting. It turned out that the two big guys had arranged everything for them.
"Well, do you want to pick up some things and go visit Brother Tuozi some other day?"
Thinking of the long distance and the slightly backward transportation system, Gu Sanqiu chose to suppress this idea in his heart.
Gu Sanqiu stretched out his hand, and the large amount of Mora piled nearby turned into golden light and drilled into the cauldron.
"Well, these Mora should be enough as the main ingredient for this pot of soup."
Gu Sanqiu carefully looked at the situation inside the cauldron. Whether it was the forging or strengthening process, too little or too much Mora would not work. As for the theory, Gu Sanqiu didn't understand it very well.
Anyway, he once bought a kitchen knife, strengthened it with an excessive amount of Mora, and then used it to cut vegetables, and as a result, a whole cabbage turned into Mora.
If the kitchen knife had not shattered instantly and almost disfigured him, he would have thought he had discovered some strange technique to turn stone into gold .
Refining weapons is a very tiring process, but for the sake of his own life, Gu Sanqiu really put in his utmost effort.
"As long as we finish this job, we can be considered to have made a high-end weapon produced locally."
Gu Sanqiu's eyes were full of smiles. These were parts of the Ruota Dragon King. It should not be excessive to use the refined things as heirlooms.
…
Three days later, Gu Sanqiu, with a high-spirited look on his face, ran to Grandma Ping to have some tea, and from time to time he moved the shield tied to his arm forward.
"Ahem, well, Xiao Gu, I've seen your shield. Aren't you tired of drinking tea like this?"
Seeing Gu Sanqiu's childish behavior, Grandma Ping's eyes were full of smiles. Now he looked like a real young man.
"Hehe, it's mainly because I was a little too excited."
Gu Sanqiu couldn't help but touch the shield in his hand. If it hadn't just been refined, he doubted that he would be able to polish it.
"Goodbye, Grandma Ping. I have to go to Yuehai Pavilion to report my itinerary, otherwise I will be in trouble again."
After watching Gu Sanqiu go to Yuehai Pavilion, Grandma Ping raised her head with a smile on her eyes and looked at the roof.
"Haha, that shield has that person's aura on it. It seems that the abnormality a while ago is related to this guy Xiao Gu."
"So, do you still want to go to Xiao Gu's house for dinner, General Mi?"
"It's General Cat!"
The black and white cat poked its head out from the roof, first shyly corrected the way Grandma Ping addressed it, then looked in the direction where Gu Sanqiu left, with a hint of joy and fear in its eyes.
"Humph, being recognized by that person proves that he has met the Emperor."
"Since those two think this incense burner is okay, then I won't worry about it. However, it will be a problem to find something to eat if I get hungry in the future."
Those are parts of the Dragon King. If I go there myself, are you sure I won't get furious and lower the image of my senior?
_(:з」∠)_
I’m so tired. I don’t want to think about these things anymore. The sun is so nice, why not have a good sleep?
Looking at the cat that curled up and started snoring, Grandma Ping shook her head helplessly.
Oh, lazy cat.
In Yuehai Pavilion, Keqing looked at Gu Sanqiu with a smile on her face. Of course, it would be better if you could ignore the lightning that was ready to be released from the sword in her hand.
"Tell me what you want from me. If you hadn't scheduled my work schedule, I would be on my way to Guiliyuan to visit the soldiers of Qianyan Army."
"I hope you really have something important to discuss, or I won't let you go."
A Kind Smile - Keqing Edition
"Ahem, fighting and killing is not good. Put away your weapons. I really have something serious to discuss this time."
"The reason I came to see you is very simple. A few days have passed, and your people should be investigating the strange movements in the Hulao Mountain area."
Keqing's eyes turned dangerous. "Are you going to tell me that you did it? Let me think about how many years you should be sentenced for the crime of destroying the environment."
"Hey, hey, I'll come to Yuehai Pavilion to report my itinerary to you right after I've rested. In a sense, isn't this helping you save energy?"
Gu Sanqiu said confidently: "I don't say it's my duty, but I came here to say it to give you and my sister face. It represents my high ideological awareness and my willingness to devote everything for Liyue."
"Do you understand the value of a person who is willing to sacrifice his life for the country?"
(__)ノ|Wall
"Okay, okay, stop for a moment. I feel like vomiting."
Keqing put away her sword and sat down. "The main thing is that the changes in that area are too outrageous. It's as if two huge beasts were fighting in that place."
"I also consulted Sister Ganyu, and she said that her strength can also reach that level, which is a normal level of strength for immortals."
"The abnormality is based on the investigation report. In addition to the fluctuation of elemental force, the change in terrain is mainly a high-level technique that combines the power of the body and the power of the earth veins..."
The more Keqing spoke, the more she felt something was wrong, and then she subconsciously looked at the guy in front of her who was laughing awkwardly.
Considering why this guy suddenly came to report his itinerary...
Keqing let out a long sigh: "What on earth in Hulao Mountain could make you fight with all your strength? Is it necessary to destroy that place?"
What you see has been renovated by the Emperor, otherwise it would be even more shocking.
As for things like "the level that immortals can reach", just listen to them.
Finally, Zhongli used Tiandong Wanxiang to clear the field. Naturally, there were traces of immortals taking action on the scene. Gu Sanqiu did not think that his destructive power had reached the level of immortals.
"This may be a little complicated to explain, and this is not the place to talk. Let's postpone the matter of bringing supplies to comfort the Qianyan Army for a day. You and your sister can come to my house for dinner today."
Gu Sanqiu patted Keqing on the shoulder and said, "It's just a reward . I'll pay for your salary, food and drinks, and I'll give you double the money. And all the credit will go to you, Yuhengxing. How about that?"
"You really need to change your erratic personality..."
