Chapter 366 Pure Water Elf(1/2)
"Xiaoyun? You came just in time. Tell me about your uncle. He is really bad at what he does. He lost money in the ore business before, and he also lost money when he was selling books. Now I don't know what happened.
He even thought about raising pigs, but he didn't even think about how he, a person who had never been to the fields before, could possibly raise pigs well, let alone wild boars."
The originally gentle woman's face was now full of anger. Bai Qiyun didn't know how much Mr. Chang Jiu had done to make his Ninth Aunt so angry, but he could imagine it just by listening to the words just now.
How many points does it come out?
"Uh...haha, Jiu Gu, please don't worry. This is what we came here for today."
After all, it was a family matter, so Bai Qiyun couldn't say much, so he had to focus on the purpose of his group's visit.
"Yes, Xiaoyun is awesome. Go and help your uncle take a look, so that he won't have to focus on those wild boars all day long."
Jiu'er had heard about his nephew's abilities.
He has friendship with the contemporary Liyue Qixing, and he is worthy of being her sister Xue’s child.
"Yes, yes, come here."
Seeing that his mother-in-law was trying to divert her attention, Chang Jiuye quickly welcomed a few people to the gathering place of the wild boars.
Passing through the uphill courtyard of the bamboo forest and walking a few steps forward, everyone saw a pig shed surrounded by fences.
Among them were several listless wild boars lying on the spot, motionless for a long time.
If he could not vaguely feel their breathing, Bai Qiyun would have thought that these wild boars had all died of illness.
With Mona's prompt, before entering the pig pen, Bai Qiyun first used his perception to detect the flow of elemental power around him.
As he expected, the elemental power nearby was changing and migrating in a strange way.
The two forces of water and fire transform back and forth deep underground, thus affecting the creatures on the surface.
"Um."
Bai Qiyun and Mona looked at each other and nodded.
If you want to solve this matter, it may be difficult or simple.
The simplest and crudest way is to take this group of wild boars away from the land and raise them in another place. After a while, they will return to normal.
If you just do this, the labor and material costs will be too high, and the expenses may not be as much as the profit from selling wild boars, which is a loss-making business.
Another way is to start with the changes in the ground veins themselves, find out the reasons for the changes, and restore them to their previous stable conditions. In this way, not only will the wild boar return to normal, but the Qing Ce Village will also become stable.
But the problem with this method is that it is too difficult and involves the earth's veins. Even though Bai Qiyun and others are not weak in strength, it is still difficult to change it with human power.
No, it should be said that I have no clue.
If a stable change in the earth's veins can be solved by using the knowledge of topography in Feng Shui, then this kind of fluid change cannot be solved.
For example, if the fire element in an earth vein is strong, it can induce water flow to balance it. However, the problem is that the fire element in the earth vein is constantly moving. Today it is strong here and there will be strong tomorrow. This method will not work at all.
Therefore, if you want to solve the changes in the earth's veins, you must find out the source of the changes.
Just like the Cold Sky Nail on the snow-capped mountains, only by solving that problem will the earth's veins return to stability.
"Mona, have you discovered anything new?"
Bai Qiyun placed his hope on the astrologer in the team.
Although there is something wrong with her professionalism, Mona is the one who can do the most on this matter here.
Hearing this, Mona called out the astrological chart again and started divination.
Sure enough, due to the problem of earth veins, her astrological chart became unstable, and there were faint signs of fragmentation.
Seeing this, Mona couldn't help but frown.
The girl could only increase the speed of her hands in order to get the result she wanted before the ceremony was interrupted.
The water elemental power became more and more intense with the support of the Eye of God, so that the wild boars on the side had to change their posture and lie down.
"snort..."
The pigsty made the same sounds that Pamon would normally make when he was sleeping.
After a while, Mona stopped what she was doing, and there was a trace of confusion on her already solemn face.
"Well, it looks like the situation is more serious than we thought."
The astrologer crossed his chest and told everyone the information he had just divined.
As an astrologer, her specialty is not to detect ley lines, but because ley lines have an impact on her astrology, she can use this influence to deduce back to the ley lines themselves.
According to her analysis, the entire ground under Qingce Village is surging with the two elemental forces of water and fire. The two elemental forces are constantly traveling underground under some external influence, causing the creatures on the ground to suffer.
Word.
As a creature that can be seen everywhere in Teyvat, wild boars are naturally one of the most affected species.
But over time, even humans may not be able to escape this influence.
Mona took out the map and marked the direction she just sensed.
Qingce Village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the original distribution of elemental power is extremely stable. The western and southern parts are close to water sources, and the water elemental power is abundant.
However, under the influence of the earth's veins, this part of the elemental power began to move toward the east, and water and fire were reversed, causing creatures with poor resistance like wild boars to fall into chaos in an instant.
Moreover, according to Mona's detection, this elemental power has a faint tendency to continue to spread eastward.
You must know that the eastern part of Qingce Village is Wuwangpo, which is filled with various mysterious legends all year round, and the ground veins are also quite unstable.
If these two are allowed to come together, I'm afraid there will be big trouble.
Linking all the signs together, Mona's eyes followed the guidance and extended all the way to the southwest.
On the map, there is a wide river to the southwest of Qingce Village, which separates Minlin from it.
If someone were to tamper with this river, it would be difficult for even the immortals in the deep clouds to detect anything amiss in the early stages of the development of the situation.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! What's more, Liyue has just experienced turmoil before, and a country without gods will always be more passive in some events.
Mona, who has been to Mondstadt, knows this very well.
"Does that mean the clues will be in that river?"
Bai Qiyun touched his chin and focused his gaze on the pure water elf beside him.
"It's this guy's turn to show up."
After targeting the rivers along the way, the search range of the few people suddenly became much smaller.
After saying goodbye to Chang Jiuye and his family, Bai Qiyun and his party took advantage of the early darkness and rushed to the river that the previous few people passed by.
Under the winter sun, the water gurgled.
The broad river comes from the west and flows slowly to the east.
————
"Anything gained?"
Hearing this, Yandora, who had just emerged from the river, shook her head towards Bai Qiyun.
As a pure water elf, she is at ease in the water, and nothing underwater can escape her eyes.
But even so, she didn't find any clues in this huge body of water.
Everything is no different from rivers in other places. At best, the flow of the river is larger.
"Isn't there something strange underwater? That's really weird."
Bai Qiyun tilted his chin and looked at the calm water, his throat moving slightly.
He originally thought that there was something they couldn't see in the water, causing Qingce Village's earth veins to become unbalanced, but he didn't expect that it was not the case.
Looking at the broad river in front of them, the group suddenly lost the goal of their action.
"It's better to start somewhere else."
Paimon flew out from behind Ying and waved his hand helplessly.
She had flown high into the sky just now to check if there was anything wrong around her, but the calmness around her made her give up the idea.
"Well, if we think beyond the information given by Mona, when it comes to Qingce Village's water elemental power..."
Bai Qiyun thought of a legend that has been circulating in Qingce Village for a long time.
Rumor has it that somewhere in Qingce Village there is an extremely powerful pure water elf who controls the movement of water, and her movements can affect the nearby river flow.
If she could be found, it would probably be able to solve the problem of chaos in the water elemental power to a certain extent.
Thinking of this, Bai Qiyun focused his attention on his contract partner again.
"Yandora, can you feel that there are people of your race nearby?"
Yandora, who was used as a detector, once again used her instinctive racial talent and began to search around for traces of pure water elves.
Soon, she felt a slight sense of the same kindred spirit from a stream coming from the northeast.
Although it is a little thin, there is no doubt that it is the trace of the pure water spirit.
"There seems to be something you mentioned there."
