The golden tree standing tall in the world of Teyvat

Wendy: “.”

Why did Liusu appear here? Shouldn’t she have been fishing? Wendy felt her head buzzing at this moment. She was saying bad things about that woman behind her back, and was caught by her master on the spot.

“Hey, Liusu, why are you here too?” Paimon shouted in surprise.

“Nothing, I just haven’t been to Liyue Harbor for a long time. I didn’t expect that I heard someone making up stories about me behind my back before I had been there for long.” Liusu glanced at Wendy meaningfully.

Ying: “.”

Is this the golden mission? All three gods are here, so this main mission must be very difficult, right?

“Hey, that woman must not be talking about you.” Wendy argued.

“What are you talking about?”

Liusu ignored Wendy who was joking.

“It’s like this.” Paimon told Liusu what happened.

Liusu touched her chin and said, "Oh? Commission, Zhongli and Wendy, are you going too? Then I'll join in."

"Great, since you've agreed, let's go, go back to find Lao Dai!" Paimeng turned to Ying and said.

Ying: "."

Ying was a little entangled and walked in front with a few gods. He was obviously looking for a helper, but he ended up bringing back three gods in one trip.

"Lao Dai, we're back!"

After arriving at the destination, Paimeng greeted Lao Dai.

Lao Dai said with some doubts: "Oh! Are these people all your friends? Didn't you say there was only one person?"

"That's right! I think this gentleman is the one who knows the most about minerals and geology in the world, and the other two are his friends."

Zhongli: "You're flattering. I just have some experience."

Lao Dai said unconvinced: "Hey, if you say so, the one I found is definitely not inferior to others."

"I can't explain it clearly, you can feel it yourself when he comes."

"Uh, is this it?" A man with black-framed glasses walked over.

Old Dai explained: "Oh, you're just in time! Let me introduce you to my helper, Kunjun."

"Xiao Kun, these two are the great adventurers I found, uh, as for this gentleman..."

Kunjun stroked his chin and looked at Zhongli: "."

Zhongli: "."

Wendy: "."

Liusu: "."

Ying: "???"

"His name is Zhongli, and he is a guest of Wangsheng Hall."

Paimon looked at the silent five people in confusion, wondering why even Ying was silent.

Old Dai said in surprise: "Mr. Zhongli, the guest of Wangsheng Hall... I have also heard of you. I heard that you are well-educated and talented. I didn't expect to meet you in person today."

Kunjun looked at Zhongli and fell into thought: "Hmm? He looks familiar... Well, have I seen him in Wangsheng Hall? But I haven't been to Wangsheng Hall..."

Paimeng said: "Old Dai, why don't you try? Let's see who is the real expert!"

"Ah? This... I, I don't know where to start..."

Paimeng said: "Then you can find a way to compete. If Zhongli wins, ask him for help. If Zhongli... No. How could he lose! "

Kunjun agreed with Paimeng's proposal: "Competition? Okay, okay, I'm willing to accompany you!"

Zhongli: "This gentleman is very interested."

Kunjun scratched his head embarrassedly after hearing Zhongli's words and said: "Ahaha, I felt that you must know something when I saw your face. But it's hard to say who is better than me."

Paimeng complained dissatisfiedly: "This person is so arrogant!"

"Just telling the truth, hahaha, besides, I only know these." Kunjun replied with a smile, obviously not taking Paimeng's words to heart.

After speaking, he turned his eyes to Liusu and Wendy: "Since these two are friends of Mr. Zhongli, they must know a lot about this, right?"

Wendy hurriedly said: "No, no, I don't know anything, I just come to watch the fun."

"Yes, yes, I am just an ordinary person, how can I join this kind of competition, I'll just watch from the back and learn more. "Liusu echoed on the side.

"Well, you two don't look like experts in this field, I'm sorry for being rude, but as friends of Mr. Zhongli, I think you two must be outstanding in other aspects."

Wendy: "Not at all."

Liu Su: "Thank you."

Zhongli: "."

"Brother Kun, are you an appraiser?" Zhongli asked.

Kunjun replied, "No, actually...actually I forgot why I came to Liyue Harbor...one day I was standing on the side of the road, and suddenly Lao Dai called me."

"Lao Dai saw me holding a stone, asked me a few questions, and then excitedly asked me to meet here."

Paimeng said in shock: "Huh? Can I forget this?"

Lao Dai explained: "On my way to Liyue Harbor, I met this man standing on the side of the road to fix the stones, and he was still mumbling in his mouth, as if he was very familiar with those stones."

"Out of curiosity, I asked a few questions, but who knew that he knew more than me, the head of the miners! Anyway, he has nothing to do, so why not come to help me."

Paimeng said: "This guy has a bad memory."

"It can't be said that his memory is bad...but if it's just stones, I can definitely help." Kunjun replied.

Ying touched his chin and asked: "Mumbling, Lao Dai, did you hear anything?"

"I didn't hear it clearly. There seemed to be some words like mora, clearing, calculating, and so on. I think he was also a stone seller, right? He wanted to clean the stones, settle accounts, and then get mora. It makes sense." Dai replied as he thought about it.

"Morax, it's time to settle everything!" Liusu remembered the previous line about Ruotuo and whispered it vividly to the side. Everyone except Lao Dai heard it.

Zhongli: "!!!"

"What? No way?" Pamon said in surprise.

"I don't think that's the case either, right?" Ying agreed with Paimon's point of view.

Kunjun's eyes flashed when he heard Liusu's words, as if he was recalling something, and he glanced at Liusu calmly.

"What are you talking about?" Lao Dai asked curiously.

"No, no, we just heard wrong." Paimeng replied. It would be better not to tell Liusu's words to the people of Liyue.

"Then what do you think of this stone?" Kunjun handed a stone to Zhongli and said.

"Well"

Zhongli touched his chin and looked at the stone and said, "The shell of this stone is smooth, and the cracks on the surface are caused by volcanic eruptions. If I guess correctly, this is a stone embryo from another country."

Kunjun showed a strange expression of increased knowledge and replied: "Oh~oh! Good taste!"

Zhongli continued his analysis: "It is not an ordinary stone embryo. The shell is thin and the lines are black... I guess it contains fine crystal ore."

Kunjun heard Zhongli's analysis and agreed: "That's right. This stone comes from around the volcano. I bought this at the market while wandering around. The seller thought it was just scraps, but he didn't know the secret."

"Aren't there crystal mines everywhere?"

Ying asked curiously. Apart from being beautiful, the crystal mine was of no use to her now. She didn't even know how many tons were put in her backpack.

Kunjun explained to Ying: "Just because the color is pure and the texture is high-grade, it is not enough to be called a treasure. Some of the higher-grade rare crystals are covered with water galls, and some are hidden with gold sand."

"The crystal hidden under this layer of stone shell wrapped a ball of water at the moment it was formed. The water hidden at the bottom is like the full moon in the mountain, moving in the sky. It can be said to be quite rare."

Paimon said in surprise: "It's so detailed, it's as if he saw it with his own eyes."

"You're not trying to fool us, are you? After all, your rock hasn't been opened yet."

"No, he is telling the truth." Zhong Li said from the side: "Most crystals are born in high-temperature environments. High temperatures are incompatible with running water, so water bladder crystals are precious. What is hidden in this crystal is mountain lake water, and even more rare."

"Even Zhongli said so, so it must be true." At this time, Paimon displayed the word double standard vividly.

"This is the first time I have seen Mr. Zhongli's eyesight! How do you know what it looks like under the stone shell?"

Zhong Li replied calmly: "I have seen a lot, so I will naturally have some insights. Please don't mind, Brother Kun."

"No, no, how could it be! I think we are very compatible, and I really want to make you a friend." Kunjun was flattered after hearing Zhongli's words, and hurriedly complimented him.

"Old Dai, take Mr. Zhongli with you! Believe me, he is definitely an expert with extraordinary vision. You will not meet many such people in your life." Kun Jun persuaded Old Dai.

"That's fine, one more person will give you more strength. Everyone, please follow me for a walk to the Strata Rock Abyss Mining Area. It's up to you to find the lost brothers this time."

"Hey, it's so strange for the old man to talk to this person named Kunjun. Is this the way people in Liyue talk?"

Liusu nodded with a tigerish face and said, "In terms of universal rationality, this is indeed the case."

Wendy: “???”

"No, what are you doing looking like a Liyue native?"

Wendy looked at Liusu and felt that the aura of Liyue on her body was getting worse and worse, and it was completely impossible to tell that she was originally Xumi's god.

"I'm originally from Liyue, isn't this normal?" Liusu said with a strange look on his face.

"Yes, this girl is from Liyue, that's for sure." Lao Dai agreed from the side.

"Why are you sure?" Wendy asked puzzledly.

"Because the color of the sky net of Liyue people is different from that of other people. Just like you, you can tell that you are not a Liyue person if you wear a cyan sky net." Lao Dai analyzed rationally.

"What about them? She doesn't look like someone from Liyue."

Wendy said pointing to Paimon and Ying who were carrying the same Skynet as Liusu and others.

"I don't know about this. Maybe they like other costumes. This sky net was made by the emperor. Only the local Liyue people can use this color of sky net."

Wendy: "."

Well, you guys all have one-sided feelings, I'm just an outsider, right?

"Everyone, this is the place where the incident happened. Six days ago, I took a few friends out to do some business. As soon as I came back, I heard that the four brothers who were left behind were missing and could not be contacted."

"I led people to search the entire mining area, but couldn't find them. I really had no clue, so I asked a few people to help."

"In other words, four miners are missing." Zhongli concluded.

"Yes. Originally there were ten of us. Except for Aaron, Cen Da, Cen, and Xiao Mao, they were all miners who worked with me."

Zhongli analyzed: "Most of the workers in this industry are young and middle-aged men. Could it be that the four miners went to mines elsewhere? And then left the boundaries of Liyue? That's why we couldn't contact them."

"Not likely. There is no place to stay around this area, and we didn't see any other mining caves on the way here. As for whether we are out of Liyue, I don't know to be honest, I just hope we won't encounter any trouble."

"Such a large mining area, have you searched all of them?"

"The result is that four workers and a child are gone? And this person named Kunjun can also read the memory of the ore?" Wendy said in disbelief.

"Yes, that's the result. We and Zhongli found these clues." Paimon replied.

"But, if a child is gone, they can also send us a message. We have contacted them for so long and there is no sound." Lao Dai said puzzled.

Ying also said puzzledly: "I also find it strange. According to the current Liyue, this situation should not happen."

"That means there is a possibility that the child is not a human, and is very familiar with Liyue, and can also intercept Skynet's signal." Liusu analyzed while touching his chin.

"Impossible? Skynet was created by the Emperor. How could anyone intercept the signal transmitted by Skynet except leaving Liyue? This should be something that only the Emperor can do, right? But now the Emperor has passed away."

Old Dai couldn't understand this answer, and he was unwilling to accept it. He would rather believe that the other four people voluntarily followed the child and left, and then forgot to communicate with himself and others, and accidentally arrived at Xumi next door, rather than believe that the signal of Skynet was intercepted.

The departure of the Emperor was the pain in the hearts of all the people in Liyue. When he said this, Old Dai's face turned bad. According to the records, the Immortal King of Liyue would not care about Liyue's affairs, because she had never shown her face once. The people of Liyue didn't even know what the Immortal King looked like, and even the gender of the incarnation was unknown.

"In terms of universal rationality, what Liusu said is really possible. If you get too close to the malicious demon god, and the demon god also knows the existence of Liyue Skynet, if he deliberately takes action, the signal of Skynet will indeed be affected." Zhongli continued to analyze as if he didn't hear what Old Dai said.

"Hey? Demon God? Why would the Demon God take away four ordinary people? This is not common sense?" Paimeng said in surprise.

"I don't know about this either. I can only observe it myself to find out the answer."

Lao Dai asked: "Where did they go?"

"According to our speculation, they walked north along the road, and should have left the mining area and went to the direction of the ruins."

"North! Okay, I'll take people to find it now."

Lao Dai didn't believe that the Demon God took away the other four workers. It's not so easy to meet the Demon God.

"Do you need our help?" Ying felt that this matter was not simple. She felt that what Liusu said must make sense.

"I've handed over the investigation to you. Let us brothers do the running. Go ahead, maybe we can catch up with them if we hurry up." Lao Dai declined Ying's help.

"Wait a minute. It happened six days ago. Even if they just walked, they walked a long way."

"You're right. Let me take my brothers to ask the residents far away. There are only a few families who want to stay away from the mining area. Leave the investigation to us."

"Lao Dai, I would like to trouble you to continue to track down the clues. We will split into two groups. If we don't meet on the way, we will meet at Wangshu Inn tomorrow night or later."

Old Dai did not mention adding Skynet friends, because Skynet friends are not particularly familiar, and business partners will not be added. It seems that these people in front of him are extraordinary, so Old Dai did not speak.

"But Wangshu Inn is too far from here, right? Can it really be reached within a day?" Paimeng asked.

"There is an anchor point downstairs of Wangshu Inn. Although the cost of long-distance transmission is very high, it is the only way."

That's right, the anchor point made by Liusu is charged. The distance is far, and it also consumes energy. Liusu directly made the anchor point absorb Mora's energy before it can be used.

Zhongli: "Okay."

"Then I'll go ahead with my brothers!"

Seeing Lao Dai leave, Paimeng said, "The current situation is that we continue to investigate, and they go to nearby residents to inquire about the news, right?"

"That's right."

"But there are no more clues in the mining area. Should we chase to the north?" Paimeng said.

"Wait, one person is missing." Zhongli said.

"No one is missing." Liusu replied with a strange look on his face.

Wendy understood what Liusu meant and agreed, "Hey, I also think that there is indeed no one missing."

Zhongli: "."

Zhongli understood what the two gods meant, but here, you guys don't play tricks, each of you makes the gods worry, are you really that worn out?

Paimeng scratched his head: "Huh?"

"Oh, that guy Xiao Kun is probably still investigating. Go call him! And Liusu and Wendy, Xiao Kun is obviously gone, why do you say that there is no one missing?"

"There is indeed no one missing, Liusu and Wendy's reminder is already very obvious, Xiao Kun is not a human." Ying explained.

"Hey?" Paimeng continued to scratch his head.

"If it's not a human, then what is it? Is it a fairy? Or a demon?"

"I don't know, but the answer should be very close." Ying replied.

"Xiao Kun, what are you still looking for here? We have almost found all the clues, it's time to set off!" Paimeng shouted to Kunjun who was standing on the stone in deep thought.

"Ah, sorry, this is a personal matter. I'm still looking for a jade called Dragon Stone."

Hearing Paimon's words, Kunjun immediately turned his head and said.

Zhongli glanced at Kunjun and said, "Dragon Stone?"

"It's something I don't know. Dragon Stone, from the name, can it suppress dragons? Like the kind of stone that can suppress the power of Tevarin?" Ying asked curiously.

"Dragon Stone is generally used in the forging industry. What do you want to use it for?" Zhongli glanced at Ying, then asked Kunjun.

Kunjun: "I don't know."

"Sorry, I can't explain the reason... I have been in a daze these days. I can't remember anything except my name and home address."

Wendy suddenly said: "Morax, it's time to settle everything!"

Zhongli: "."

Kunjun: "."

The group is in the introduction of the work. If you need it, you can add it
