Chapter 404: The Demon God of Salt (2-in-1)
"Hey, Keqing, long time no see."
Li Qiuzhi looked at the girl who came over and said hello.
"Yo, it's Keqing. We're here to send floating stones to Ningguang, why are you here? ”
Hu Tao raised a good-looking brow and said in surprise.
"I'm Yu Hengxing, and I'm in charge of land and construction-related things. With such a big project as Ningguang's reconstruction of the Jade Pavilion, I naturally have to come over often to see if there are any potential safety hazards. ”
Keqing folded her hands under her chest and parted her soft lips and said simply.
"I see, Keqing is really hard, obviously you can let your subordinates do this kind of thing, but you have to do it yourself."
Li Qiu said with praise.
"Don't say that, I don't do everything alone." Keqing shook her head, and her lilac double ponytails swayed slightly, "And this kind of thing is always better to come and see it in person." ”
If she leaves everything to someone else, then the information she gets is based on someone else's message.
In the long run, if her judgment is based on the information brought back by others, it will be very troublesome, which will make her less sensitive to various things.
In this way, it will gradually become a lot sluggish.
And if you often come out to take a look, if you find any problems, you can directly let people deal with them.
Thinking of this, Keqing suddenly moved her eyes to Li Qiuzhi:
"Speaking of which, would you be interested in doing me a favor?"
"Help? Oh. Let's talk about what it is, shall we? ”
Although Li Qiuzhi wanted to blindly agree, he behaved too much in this way, and it was easier to gain favor by treating others with an equal and respectful attitude.
Even if there is a high probability that they will agree in the end.
You can understand the situation a little bit and then make your own decisions, which will also be more mature and stable.
Keqing lightly tapped her fair and soft chin, and said slightly:
"Recently, the General Affairs Department received a report from an adventurer that a powerful group of treasure hoarders was secretly searching for something near the Salt of the Earth.
"For the Treasure Hoarders, it's worth their effort to find precious treasures, even though anyone can do it, and it's not illegal.
"But their Treasure Hoarders attack adventurers who also want to venture there and keep outsiders from approaching, because they often engage in such domineering behavior.
"The Treasure Hoarders have become a monster-like danger in the wild, so I'd like to ask you to join me in apprehending them so they don't continue to endanger others there."
She had originally wanted to take the Millelith with her.
But this kind of movement is too big, and it is easy for the treasure thief group to detect it in advance and run away, but it is different with Li Qiuzhi here.
He was able to summon strange translucent tentacles, and he would have no problem catching them all in an instant.
Therefore, Keqing met Li Qiuzhi unexpectedly now, and only then did he think of asking him to help.
"Salt in the earth. Treasure Hoarders."
Li Qiuzhi naturally had no reason not to agree to such a simple matter as helping to arrest the Treasure Hoarders.
However, there is a remnant of the Salt Demon God in that place, and there are two artifacts containing the "power of salt".
The last time I went there, because I didn't have the entry for "Golden Treasury", I didn't have the idea of fighting them because I was troublesome, and this time I have to say that he has some ideas.
Those two artifacts must be much rarer and more precious than those five-star quality holy relics.
If they can be collected into the "Wonderland", Li Qiuzhi is already looking forward to how much they can expand the fairyland space in his heart!
It's just that there is Zhongli's seal there, and it's a little troublesome to get in, so it seems that you can only go to him and ask.
I just don't know if he wants to say it, after all, his motives are not pure, and he went to obtain the artifact of the Salt Demon God.
"No problem, this is just a small thing, when will you act?"
Li Qiuzhi nodded and said in agreement.
"Well, then I'll trouble you, as for the time of action, it's set for the afternoon, I think it's the time when they are the most slack off just after lunch."
Keqing said with a smile on her face.
[Keqing has a favorable opinion of you, gaining 230 opinion points, and the current friendship level is 5 (100/500)]
"Okay, then let's gather outside the city then."
Li Qiuzhi said there was no problem.
"Okay, Ningguang's two secretaries, Baiwen and Baizhi, are over there, if you want to find Ningguang, you can talk to them, and they will notify them."
Keqing stretched out her snow-white finger and pointed behind her, where she had just walked over.
After speaking, she continued to observe the construction of the Jade Pavilion.
"Miss Keqing is indeed a conscientious Jade Hengxing, who is busy with the safety supervision of the Jade Pavilion construction site here, and at the same time is worried about the treasure poachers of salt far away in the ground.
"It's like a walnut, if you have nothing to do all day long, you will come to the pranksters!"
Yun Jin couldn't help but feel a little emotional when she looked at the back of Ke Qing leaving, and then remembered that there happened to be a negative case next to her.
"Hey, how did it get on me." Hu Tao quickly interrupted Yun Jin's complaint about herself, turned around and ran forward, "Hurry up, let's go find Ningguang." ”
Looking at the walnut that ran away, Yun Jin helplessly held her forehead.
Li Qiuzhi smiled and beckoned Shen He and Yun Jin to follow.
It didn't take long to see the two secretaries who were supervising the work in place of Ningguang.
Hu Tao, who came first, had already explained his intention to them, and after the two secretaries nodded their heads to show that they understood, Bai Zhi took out a bright yellow gem from his pocket and crushed it.
"This is a gem made by Lord Ningguang using her elemental power, it is not hard, it can be easily crushed, and when it is broken, it will release Lord Ningguang's own elemental power.
"That way, even from Liyue Harbor, she can feel it, and know that we have something to look for her, and Lord Ningguang will be here soon."
Bai Wen next to Bai Zhi saw that Li Qiuzhi and a few people were curious, so he explained a little.
"Oh? Seems to be quite interesting. Hu Tao pinched his chin and fell into deep thought.
"The principle is not difficult, the powerful Vision holder's perception of elemental power is still quite keen, let alone his own elemental power.
"But if you want to play like this, it is difficult for other elements to succeed, because there is no rock element to stabilize and cannot be stored for a long time."
Li Qiuzhi easily saw the doorway.
It's a bit like a phone, or a wireless one, and I don't know if there's a chance to dig deeper and develop an elemental version of the wireless phone.
As long as the elemental forces stored in advance are released according to fixed fluctuations, and then the person who receives them also has something like a "code book" of these elemental force fluctuations.
It will probably be possible to communicate with each other remotely.
Well, whether it will work or not is to let Lisa, the master of the elements, study it, if it is really done, it will definitely be a very marketable commodity.
Come to think of it.
Li Qiuzhi immediately contacted Lisa, who was far away in Mondstadt, through the "Dao Mark", and told her about his sudden thoughts.
It's just here for the time being, waiting for the condensation to come.
However, he didn't talk to Lisa for long, and soon a bright yellow rock elemental circle appeared in front of him, with a long white and golden hair, and he stepped out of it.
"Ningguang-sama!"
The two secretaries greeted respectfully.
"Hmm." Ningguang bowed her head slightly, her hands folded under her chest, she looked at Li Qiuzhi and the others and smiled, "It's really fast, a few of you got the Mingxia Floating Stone back so quickly." ”
"Hehe, after all, it's an important thing that Miss Ningguang is waiting for to rebuild the Jade Pavilion, so naturally you can't treat it casually."
Li Qiuzhi smiled and said:
"That Mingxia floating stone is about half the size of a room, where are you going to put it, Miss Ningguang?"
"Well, Baiwen, you go to a few masters to bring a few iron chains over, and the floating stone is placed in front of it first, so as not to affect the construction of the workers, close to the mountain."
Ningguang looked around for a moment, and finally decided.
"Okay, Ningguang-sama." Baiwen nodded in understanding, and then walked away for the time being.
Next, Ningguang took Li Qiuzhi and them to the selected location, signaling that they could take out the Mingxia Floating Stone.
Li Qiuzhi didn't hesitate, he opened a large spatial crack in a parallel way to the ground, and then without him going in to move, the huge Mingxia floating stone slowly floated out by itself.
When it completely came out and wanted to continue flying into the sky.
Ningguang stretched out his right hand that was clinging to the black long-sleeved cover, and the palm of his hand was slightly depressed, and the Mingxia Floating Stone stopped steadily in midair.
Li Qiuzhi could feel a large amount of rock elemental force pulling it in.
He looked at Ningguang with a smile on his face:
"This Mingxia Floating Stone is big enough, is Miss Ningguang satisfied?"
"Hehe, naturally I am satisfied, the market price of such a large Mingxia floating stone is generally around five to six hundred million Mora, but considering its scarcity, it can generally be at a premium of twenty or thirty million, and then I said that it will be purchased at a price higher than the market price, so how about adding another fifty million, a total of six hundred million Mora to buy it?"
Ningguang stroked the smoothed floating stone, and a satisfied look appeared on his white face.
If someone else was looking for Mingxia Floating Stone to give her, she would naturally suppress the price, but in the face of friends, she would naturally not use the methods of those shopping malls on them.
Six or seven billion Mora is not even a drop in the bucket for her.
"Of course I don't have a problem, what do you think?" Li Qiuzhi seemed to remember that the Mingxia floating stone that those wealthy businessmen fought for in the original book was only more than 500 million Mora.
680 million is indeed Ningguang generous.
Of course, he has no problem, but other people's opinions still have to be asked.
"Well, it's a very high price, and the hall master thinks it's no problem." Hu Tao hugged her flat chest and closed her eyes and nodded in satisfaction.
Shenhe and Yun Jin didn't have any additional opinions on this, so a big deal of hundreds of millions of dollars was done!
"Very good, you can also give me the secret stone that makes the core of Qianqi, I will let Baizhi bring it to the blacksmith master to make the core of Qianqi, and in addition to the immortal talismans, please ask Miss Shenhe."
All of a sudden, he helped her solve the three core things needed to rebuild the Jade Pavilion, and Ningguang's favor for Li Qiuzhi and the others was also slightly improved.
[Ningguang has a favorable impression of you, gain 240 opinion points, and the current opinion level is 7 (200/700)]
Li Qiuzhi looked at the goodwill prompt that popped up on the character panel, and he was also very happy, he discussed it with everyone a little, and gave the same valuable secret stone to Ningguang.
She is generous to them, and they naturally can't be stingy.
As for the Immortal Talisman, it was originally given to Ningguang as a small compensation for Ningguang for sacrificing the Jade Pavilion to save Liyue for the sake of righteousness.
Midday.
Ningguang hosted a banquet for Li Qiu to eat at the Liuli Pavilion, and when they left, they each gave them a newly prepared Liyue Bank withdrawal note worth 170 million.
They can go to Liyue Bank at any time to retrieve these Mora or transfer them to their own name.
Li Qiuzhi has traveled to Teyvat for so long, and finally became a billionaire, a small goal has been achieved, and the next step is to move towards the level of a billionaire.
But with so many Mora, he didn't have hobbies he didn't have.
He is going to use it to acquire some rare treasures to collect and expand the fairyland space, and he has already asked Ningguang to help pay attention to this, after all, her identity as a Tianquan Star is easier to access these.
After lunch, Shenhe temporarily followed Ningguang and went to make the immortal talisman.
Yun Jin also wanted to prepare to practice, so Li Qiuzhi sent her back to Yun Han Society, and then followed Hu Tao back to the Death Hall.
Because in the afternoon, he and Keqing were going to the Salt of the Earth to capture the Treasure Hoarders, but he wanted to enter the Salt Demon God Ruins to get two artifacts, and since just now, he has been recalling how to break the seal in the game.
Thanks to a good memory, he also basically remembers.
But after all, it was the place where Zhongli sealed, and it seemed a bit bad to break the seal rashly, and it was necessary to give a little notice, and it didn't take much time.
After all, he is the Lord of Rock, so he should be respected a little.
Otherwise, halfway through the solution, he would be very embarrassed to suddenly appear.
Anyway, in the original book, he even personally instructed the traveler to unlock the seal, so as not to disagree, the big deal is to quietly enter the secret realm without unlocking the seal and not alarming Zhongli.
That shouldn't bother him!
It didn't take long for Li Qiuzhi and Hu Tao to return to the Hall of the Dead, and at this time, the old man who had been walking the streets all day and night was standing next to the wall of the hall, admiring a landscape painting hanging on it.
Seeing Li Qiuzhi and Hu Tao coming in, he said with a slight smile:
"Hall Master, good Yaxing, I heard that you and Brother Li Qiuzhi went out on an adventure."
"Oh, Zhongli Keqing, why are you so gossipy, don't you think you have nothing to do, hmph, very good, the master of this hall has just earned 100 million Mora, so I will leave it to you to expand the business scope of the Afterlife Hall."
Hu Tao heard the meaning of Zhongli's ridicule, frowned and directly stuffed the withdrawal bill given by Ningguang into his hand, and ordered the task.
Li Qiuzhi's eyelids jumped, and asked Zhongli, a guy who never bargains when buying things, and it doesn't matter how much others say, to expand his business, how can he not feel good.
This 100 million Mora, I feel that it will not be long before it will be lost!
