Chapter 296 The gun that pierces the world
Liyue Port, General Affairs Department.
Today, the General Affairs Department welcomed a large number of guests. In addition to the usual treasure-stealing group of old friends, there was also a tall alchemist with the eye of the water elemental god.
It is said that the plan of this team of treasure thieves is very crazy. They want to dig a passage to the bedrock mine to avoid the formation of the Seven Stars.
Fortunately, they were discovered in time by Yue Song and Ningzhe, the captains of the Qingyuan, and these two men took action to subdue them - the alchemist was the one who cooperated with the treasure stealing group, and he provided the terrain and rock layers. Juyuan intelligence information.
For other treasure-stealing groups, the General Affairs Department has the right to directly handle it, but for this alchemist, the head of the alchemist family needs to come and see it in person.
The new head of the Alchemist family is a staunch believer in being close to the officialdom. Because of his existence, the Liyue officialdom has given some autonomy.
Needless to say, Ningzhe, as the captain of the Qingyuan, Yue Song's accusation was undoubtedly very powerful - especially when the alchemist was silent and said nothing.
In the absence of the Seven Stars, if they want to deal with this alchemist, they must wait until the current head of the alchemist family, Shi Qi, arrives.
What's puzzling is that nearly an hour has passed and the head of the family has not yet arrived at the General Affairs Department.
According to the regulations, if the head of the family fails to arrive at the scene when he is convicted, the alchemist who cooperated with the treasure-stealing group will be directly convicted, and then the entire alchemist family will be held accountable.
People in the General Affairs Department better understand what the mountains in the Qingxupun area mean. If that place really collapses due to the digging of mountains to clear roads, it will not only affect the Qingxupu ruins.
More importantly, the ground vibration caused by the collapse will affect Liyue Port. At this special period, the geological conditions in many places in Liyue are already unstable. If another mountain range collapses, it will only cause more terrible consequences.
But of course, these matters were not under Ningzhe's control. After sending the people to the General Affairs Department, Ningzhe left directly.
On the way, Yue Song also told Ningzhe everything about his arrival here and other things, and Ningzhe rushed towards the mouth of the great abyss without stopping.
All the actions of the treasure stealing group have only one goal: to get the [thing] Shi Qi mentioned.
Why are they so convinced that there is such a thing underground?
Because the real leader of their team, the Xiuji man, had vaguely seen that thing deep in the mine, and he could never forget it in his life.
Shukichi may not be good at using guns, but as a former samurai, he knows very well how terrifying the weapons he sees are.
It was a silver-white spear.
The head of its gun penetrated deep into the black rock, and the silver-white gun body stood leaning here without any trace.
This long spear is always surrounded by an unstoppable aura and a sharpness that seems to be able to pierce through all things - back then, even if Xiu Ji just glanced at it, the finely forged long knife in his hand was broken in an instant.
Weapons of this level are already more powerful than the strongest weapons created by the so-called Inazuma Master. Shuuji simply couldn't bear it, and his spirit fell into sluggishness for a while.
When he woke up, he had been rescued from the mine by his men, and the powerful and mysterious spear remained in his heart.
Coincidentally, Shi Quan didn't know where he got this information, and he actually knew the location of the spear very clearly. Moreover, the location he mentioned coincided with Xiu Ji's few memories.
In order to deceive others, Shi Quan did not tell the rest of the Alchemist family the news, but went directly to the treasure stealing group to cooperate.
He himself also knew that cooperating with the treasure stealing group was tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger, but he had no other way to go.
If this news is told to the Liyue officials, then even if the officials are willing to help, the thing cannot be his Shi Quan's. And if he tells the officials, this will be different from his original idea.
But having said that, cooperating with the treasure stealing group may also lead to a situation where the gangsters take advantage of the gangsters... So he used the news about Yue Long who stayed at the mouth of the great abyss to force Yue Song to join the game.
Moreover, he also prepared backup measures if Yue Song's actions were not concealed enough and were discovered by Liyue officials.
In fact, he succeeded. Yue Song even laid out very strict concealment methods and did not attract the attention of the navy or Liyue officials.
But what he didn't expect was that Ningzhe actually came to the scene in person.
As the owner of the Eye of the Water Elemental God, and also a person who specializes in alchemy, he is confident that he can deal with some spies, even the person from the Privy Council, he can fight with them a few moves.
But Ningzhe...he really can't handle it, and he doesn't dare to handle it.
However, he has no intention of surrendering. As long as he insists that his cooperation with the treasure thief group is limited to the Qingxupu ruins and does not involve things under the rocky abyss, he can hide the news.
In his impression, the new head of the family, Shi Qi, is an honest man, and he is even willing to sacrifice his own interests as long as he can maintain a balance.
The voices of discord in the alchemist family have become louder and louder, and his status and reputation in the family are not low. If the harmony of his family is a threat, Shi Qi will definitely protect his... .
But reality played a joke on him again.
Until the time expired, Shi Qi still didn't come to the General Affairs Department - he didn't even get a hint of news, as if he had completely abandoned Shi Quan.
According to the regulations of the General Affairs Department, this situation will be deemed that Shi Qi has automatically given up the opportunity to guarantee Shi Quan.
However, these things are different from Ningzhe. By this point in time, Ningzhe had already arrived at the Layer Rock Abyss.
The Great Abyss after the Great Retreat was extremely desolate, perhaps because several small earthquakes occurred later, and a lot of wood or stone bricks were scattered on the way down.
The various houses originally built above have also been largely destroyed, leaving only a few traces of dilapidation here.
The gap in the cliff at the height is very huge, and the rocks at the edge have become uneven. If you look down at the entire mine from a height, you will find that this mine really looks like the "Mouth of the Great Abyss."
If you just look at this scene, it would be hard to imagine that it only took less than a month for a normal mine to evolve into this.
This place should not be set foot by humans.
——This is the first thought that comes to Ningzhe’s mind when he comes here.
After successfully sketching the map of the earth veins and getting in touch with the earth veins, similar thoughts would always appear in Ningzhe's mind unconsciously.
Of course, he understands it himself.
However, human beings cannot stop where they are, just like he cannot stop now and must find the spear.
