Chapter 355 Something Subtle Is Wrong
"Man-made?"
Gu Sanqiu paused for a moment, then narrowed his eyes.
"If we limit the scope to humans, what kind of thing can manipulate the power of the earth veins?"
His family's Shaking Mountain Sutra was passed down from the Dragon King Ruotu, but it was impossible for him to create the kind of scene that Chu Qiu described to him.
To put it simply, the "Han Shan Jing" is to install a faucet at one end of a water pipe instead of modifying the structure of the water pipe itself and using it.
If he is the one who can use "tap water", then the one who can truly manipulate the earth veins is the plumber, and he is an old craftsman who has been in the industry for more than 20 years.
Xingqiu was surprised: "Your family doesn't have any records about this either?"
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "No, in the past, the earth veins of Liyue were guarded by the Ruotu Dragon King. With that big guy around, anyone who dared to touch the earth veins of Liyue would be lucky if they were not beaten to death."
"Tsk, if it's not man-made, is there any explanation for it?"
"That's not the way it should be."
Gu Sanqiu remembered it, but he couldn't tell Xingqiu the news yet.
In this world, there are some creatures called monsters, but actually they are human beings living underground for a long time. And a certain cult that exists with those guys may have this kind of power!
wrong.
Gu Sanqiu shook his head subconsciously. If it was the Abyss Cult that was causing trouble, there would definitely be a reaction from the old man.
Although the old man may have his own calculations, the fact that he was able to work together with Hu Tao to solve the problem of the earth vein explosion this time has already proved that this matter was not in his other party's calculations.
Xingqiu looked at Gu Sanqiu: " How is it, did you remember anything?"
"According to the intelligence you have gathered, there are several points where the earth veins are erupting."
Xingqiu ran back, put down his bowl and chopsticks, then took out a map and ran back.
"I have only investigated six or seven places, and one of them was found out by Chongyun through asking a person related to the cultivation lineage."
Gu Sanqiu frowned: "Is there any in Minlin too?"
"Yes, but it was quickly put out after being discovered by several sects, and no abnormalities were found in the surrounding area."
Xingqiu smiled bitterly: "They have already informed the Liyue officials of this news, so when Chongyun asked them about it, they answered so readily. Now you know why I was suspicious about this and that."
"It's strange that Qixing didn't take any action even though they received a clear message."
Gu Sanqiu asked: "What about Keqing? She should be very concerned about this kind of thing. There's no reason for her to ignore it."
Xingqiu shrugged. "Behind the scenes, to be more precise, the secretary told us that she was very busy and didn't have time to see us."
"Depend on."
Gu Sanqiu now believed it, there was indeed something wrong.
If it were any other time, Keqing would definitely drag a large number of Thousand Rocks troops to start clearing the map. Not to mention the few flash points that were discovered, the entire Liyue would have to be plowed through.
Now a friend comes to her house and asks about Liyue’s safety, but Keqing chooses to ignore him. If she says there is no problem, no one will believe her.
After the porridge was ready, Gu Sanqiu served it to a few guys who were gasping for air due to the spiciness , and then sat down next to Yaya casually.
"Tell me, was this incident done by you?"
Tartaglia:?
YaYa was helpless: "We are just a normal diplomatic mission. Why do you think we are so bold as to do something that might cause public outrage in Liyue?"
Let me tell you a joke: the fools are not very brave.
Gu Sanqiu twitched his lips and said, "Don't tell me these things. Even if you didn't do it, you must have some basic information. Tell me about it."
"Why are you holding on to me?"
YaYa laughed: "Anyway, there is no key information. Apart from the strange attitude of the relevant departments in your Liyue this time, we don't know what happened deep in the earth veins."
"You also think that their attitude is wrong?"
"Otherwise, the Adventurer's Association doesn't have enough manpower to deal with ordinary leyline congestion, let alone such a large-scale event."
Gu Sanqiu seemed to be thinking: "Then in your opinion, what exactly caused this situation?"
Yaya glanced at Gu Sanqiu and said, "You have a very high status in Liyue, right? Go ask yourself."
"It would be nice if I could ask."
Gu Sanqiu curled his lips. Even if he asked his elder sister about this matter, Ningguang would probably tell him not to worry about it in a coaxing tone like a child. If he asked a few more questions, she would instantly change her face and throw him out of the Qun Yu Pavilion.
However, if my guess is correct, there should be...
"Forget it. When Chongyun wakes up, I will take you to clean up the thing one by one. It's just a disturbance of the earth veins. Don't force me to use my ultimate move."
The last time Grandpa Ruota’s heart knot was untied, he truly witnessed that kind of power. The Fulong Tree sealed the Dragon King, but it was probably a seal that he entered voluntarily.
Although his strength is not as strong as it was in his heyday, it is just a problem of the earth veins. If Gu Sanqiu really can't handle it, won't he ask for help?
Well, to be precise, it should be called shaking the dragon.
"What's your big move?"
High-quality Fatui executives never pass up an opportunity to gather information.
Gu Sanqiu glanced at Yaya and said, "I'll burn you as a sacrifice to the earth veins."
"Gu Xiangjun."
Minglei and Wanye's expressions changed, and they clenched their weapons in their right hands at the same time. Guoba, who was sticking his head into the pot and shaking his two short legs from time to time, also raised his head and looked at the cloaked man who suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Who?"
Gu Sanqiu calmly drew out a long sword, with a dark red flame burning fiercely on it.
"I am here on your Excellency's orders to return to Liyue Harbor. This is your proof."
The cloaked man took out a token, and Xingqiu and Gu Sanqiu's faces changed when they saw it.
"Who gave you the order?"
"Yuheng, Tianquan, both of you."
Gu Sanqiu glanced at the sky, then looked around and shook his head.
"Haha, my sister's intelligence network is amazing. She knew where I was as soon as I came back."
"It seems that the things here can only be left to you?"
Gu Sanqiu took out a large pile of recovery medicines and various weapons, and finally took out a number of glittering jade runes and handed them to everyone.
"This is something left over from the Demon War era. If you run into the Rock Helmet King you mentioned last time, throw this thing out to kill him. If there's any residue left, I'll take his last name."
Gu Sanqiu patted Xingqiu on the shoulder and said, "I'll leave this to you. I have to go back and see what my elder sister and the others are planning."
It was obvious that Xingqiu also seemed to have discovered something and shrugged simply.
"Go ahead, go ahead. With these supplies, even if I throw weapons and self-destruct, it will be enough to cause damage."
Gu Sanqiu's face darkened: "I give you these things because I'm afraid something will happen to you, not for you to squander them, understand?"
"Tsk, this is just a small amount of supplies. If you really encounter a dangerous situation, I will explode all these weapons for you, and I will compensate you with ten times the raw materials later."
Xingqiu waved his hand with a heroic gesture: "Go ahead, go ahead. Now is the time for me to show my abilities. I hope you won't be envious and jealous when you see my achievements in Liyue Harbor."
"Haha, that's impossible, because I will change your name to mine, and then your contributions will become my political capital."
Xingqiu was dumbfounded: "Hey, hey, don't just say that."
Gu Sanqiu laughed: "It was just a joke, don't worry, go ahead, when your contributions come out, I'll hold a celebration party for you when you come back."
