Chapter 16: Unexpected Changes

Qiongjiye, the mouth of the blue water.

With the support of Zhong Gu and several immortals, the salt farm was in shape in just a few days, and the processes of drying salt, filtration, and refining were arranged in an orderly manner, and it could be put into production just when the manpower was in place.

"Recently, it happened to be the busy season for farming, and it was the rainy season after a while, so I discussed with Liuyun borrowing wind Zhenjun, first taught a group of people who knew how to dry salt, and then when the rainy season passed, let them take the big guy to dry the coarse salt first.

"As for the processes such as filtration and refining, because they are more complicated and involve the immortal family's organs, I plan to select a few young people from the warlock family and let them take charge first."

Bolin led the bell and drum to inspect the salt factory, introducing every detail one by one, as if he was eager for this salt factory to start producing salt tomorrow.

"Hmm...... The progress is much faster than I expected, and these refining instruments are made by Aunt Liuyun? No, I can't call Sister Liuyun Aunt anymore, she told me in private that she shouldn't call her old age. ”

Bo Lin wiped the sweat that didn't exist with some embarrassment, and pretended to forget that Xiao Yanjun called him Uncle Bo Lin in the first place.

"These instruments are indeed made by Liuyun's predecessors, and she is very interested in the concentration control method you proposed, which is specially used to extract pure table salt."

"If you just use the magic device, the people who use it are very limited, although it is much more efficient...... Well, let's deal with it like this for a while, and then we still have to make it so that ordinary people can use it...... Or let the slimes come. ”

Zhong Gu's tone was quite regretful, as if he was a little annoyed that he had not been able to achieve the slime production plan, which made Bolin feel even more embarrassed for a while.

On a whim that day, Bolin felt that he could replace the basic elemental power with a slime, and the bell and drum agreed with it. However, when it came time to implement it, it encountered many more difficulties than expected.

"Slimes are still too weak, although they can naturally use elemental power, but the utility they can produce is too weak, and it is really ...... to use them to help with production"

Bolin didn't finish the rest of the words, the reality was too helpless.

That day, the bell and drum spent a long day helping the rock slime build a simple hut, thinking that although it was ugly, it would at least be able to shelter from the wind and rain.

Who would have thought that the hut would collapse in the middle of the night, if it weren't for the special physique and flexibility of the slimes, I am afraid that there would be ordinary slimes that day to turn into slime.

"Slimes are indeed weak, but as elemental creatures, as long as they exercise well, they will still have a chance to grow, and in time, they will surely become an important part of the return and even Liyue."

The bell drum said as he looked at the beach in the distance. There, at this moment, there are two slimes jumping forward, and the leader is none other than Rimuru, the family of the bell and drum.

Bo Lin looked at the jumping slimes together, his expression was quite subtle, he really didn't understand why this young demon god was on the bar with the slimes, could it be that his authority was the slime demon god?

Bolin held back the constant complaints in his mind, and at the same time did not intend to persuade anything. After all, this demon god is already much better than other chaotic and evil demon gods, and his strange interest in cultivating slimes is much better than some evil and bloody demon god hobbies.

"Why haven't you seen General Fire Rat and Jinpeng Yaksha today, haven't they all accompanied Xiao Yanjun these days?"

Bolin abruptly changed the subject, seemingly not wanting to continue the topic of slime training.

"The Millelith sent a message that there were sea beasts on the eastern side of the sea again, and Sister Yingda and Xiao had gone over to inspect. As for Sister Ganyu, she was taken away by Aunt Liuyun, saying that she wanted to test her homework. ”

So is it because I want to call Sister Ganyu that I call Aunt Liuyun's seniors...... Bolin felt as if he had learned something.

"Indeed, our salt works are built by the sea, and safety issues do need to be considered, although the mouth of the Bishui River is now under our control, the sea beast is always a threat."

"There is no way, I can't find a salt lake for the time being, I can only use seawater to dry salt, and I can only work hard for the Yaksha brothers to inspect here more."

Zhong Gu naturally knew that the threat of the Sea Clan still existed, but compared to letting the demon gods unite to deal with Tianheng Mountain and Guili, he would rather spend more effort to reverse the situation in front of him as soon as possible.

"Let's go, let's go back to ...... first"

"Help!"

Just as the bell and drum were about to leave the salt pan and return to the group, a cry for help suddenly came from a distance.

"Is it such a coincidence, I'm obviously leaving, come to such a bridge at this time?"

The bell and drum looked into the distance, and with the help of the elemental vision extended by the leylines, he could see everything over there.

I saw that on the beach by the sea, some sea beasts resembling dragon lizards and some floating spirits were chasing a group of humans, and among these people, only one or two of them could use elemental power to barely resist the opponent's attack.

"It's someone from the Salt God tribe, and it seems to be their messenger."

"Haven't the people of the Salt God Tribe returned to the salt of the earth? How did it end up here? ”

Bo Lin was a little curious, but when it came to diplomatic matters between the Demon God Tribes, Bo Lin didn't dare to say anything at will.

Zhong Gu looked at the humans and demonic beasts that suddenly appeared, and thought to himself, and after a moment, he made a decision.

"Brother Bolin, you return to Liji first. Rimuru, follow me! ”

With the shout of the bell and drum, Rimuru flew over a distance of dozens of meters with a bounce and landed firmly on the top of the bell's head, and his elastic body almost covered the entire head of the bell. However, the bell and drum didn't care, and his figure disappeared in an instant, and with the help of the resonance of the rocks in the earth, he quickly fled forward.

This is Zhongli's method of rock escape, which has been repeatedly studied by Rimuru's observation records and bells and drums, and he is now proficient in using it.

"Bang!"

And with him arriving at his destination, the rock elemental branches broke through the ground, and more than a dozen curved and entangled branches and veins entangled all the demonic beasts, even the floating spirits flying in the air did not escape, and they were entangled by the branches and veins.

Before these demonic beasts even had time to react, they were swept into the earth by the rock elemental branches and turned into nourishment for the rocks, leaving only a mess behind.

Silence, silence. The sudden reversal of the situation made the people of the salt in the earth have no time to react, and even the envoy of the salt god still maintained the action of condensing the elemental power, and the ice pick in his hand had not yet had time to be released.

"This ...... You are...... Demon God! ”

Zhong Gu tilted his head and looked at the obviously frightened envoy, with an innocent and ignorant smile on his face, as if to calm people's hearts.

However, in the next moment, the bell and drum command shocked the rest of the human race.

"Rimuru, swallow him!"

The Rimuru above the head of the bell and drum suddenly stretched infinitely, turning into a huge iron-gray soft membrane, like Marcosius and dough rolling out the dough. And in the next second, this iron-gray "dough" completely wrapped the salt god envoy, without revealing a single gap.

"It's a long life! Slime eats people!! ”
