Chapter 51: Planning for Liyue's Future
"But before that, answer me a question, why did you release Ruotu?"
Ajiu asked Liu Bai seriously.
Although she was pleased that someone took the initiative to release King Rudra, she also wanted to know the reason behind this.
"Of course it's to steal the Eye of the Rock God!"
Liu Bai said this seriously.
"It's the Heart of God..."
Hearing Liu Bai's words, Nashida on the side couldn't help but remind him.
But why should I remind him...
"Oh yeah, the Heart of God."
At Nashida's reminder, Liu Bai put his hands on his hips and nodded.
"I see. Although you came here with a purpose, you have the courage to be a human being. I, Ruota, recognize you."
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Let us work together to overthrow Morax's tyranny!"
Ajiu touched his chin and thought, then nodded and extended a hand towards Liu Bai.
"Okay, overthrow Morax!"
Liu Bai cooperated and held Ajiu's hand, speaking with some excitement.
"Hahaha, overthrow Morax!"
Ajiu also cheered.
"You two, keep your voices down..."
Nashida was a little worried that their voices would be heard outside the house, so she hurried forward and separated their clasped hands.
The two of them just remembered that this was Liyue Harbor, so they shut up and sat down again.
"Let's discuss what to do tomorrow."
"it is good."
The two looked at each other, nodded to each other, and then cleared the things on the table.
"Ahem, first of all, let's assume that the location of this Mora is Liyue Harbor, and then this bowl is Jueyunjian, and the location of the Qingxin in the bowl is the Fulong Tree."
"My men are transporting explosives, and they will be able to blow up the seal under the Fulong tree tomorrow."
Liu Bai placed several items on the table to simulate a map.
"Okay, okay, when I come out, I'll sit on Jue Yun Jian first."
Ajiu picked up Liu Bai's sea otter doll and let it sit on the bowl that represented "Jue Yunjian".
"Yes, after we take over Jueyunjian, we will head south and capture Liyue Harbor. We will then split the Mora inside 50-50."
Liu Bai snatched back his sea otter doll without leaving a trace, and then drew a line from "Jueyunjian" to "Liyue Harbor" with his hand.
"Fifty-fifty split? Are you kidding me, human?"
Hearing about the 50-50 split, Ajiu folded his arms and sneered.
"Fifty-fifty split isn't enough? How much do you want?"
Liu Bai didn't expect that such a fair distribution could not satisfy Ajiu, so he had to ask with some dissatisfaction.
"Hmph, do you think I look like I need Mora? Whatever I need from Mora, I'll give it to you."
Ajiu waved his hand as a matter of course.
"...The boss is generous."
Liu Bai was silent for a moment, then gave Ajiu a thumbs up.
This is the first time he has met such a generous ally!
Afterwards, the two began an in-depth exchange, discussing the future development plan after taking over Liyue, such as filling the sea to create land for real estate development, leveling the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, and filling the Layered Chasm to grow vegetables.
Seeing the two of them playing house so seriously and laughing from time to time, Nashida, who wanted to go over and play with them, chose to pick up the book silently.
"Umm...Morax...you have...today too..."
At night, Ajiu, who was sleeping on the floor, fell asleep, mumbling all kinds of things in his sleep.
Although she is not truly human, her consciousness is still capable of dreaming.
"Your Majesty... you can now... summon the dragon..."
Liu Bai, who was sleeping in bed, was also talking in his sleep, although Nashida could hardly understand what he meant.
……
"Ah... girl, good morning."
The next morning, Liu Bai woke up, yawned, greeted Nashida who was reading a book by the window, and then got out of bed.
"Ow!"
Liu Bai didn't pay attention and his first step when he got out of bed happened to step on the stomach of Ajiu who was sleeping on the floor beside the bed, which woke her up immediately.
"...Ahem, good morning, ally. Do you like the way I wake you up?"
Liu Bai retracted his foot, coughed lightly, and spoke to Ajiu awkwardly.
Ajiu bared his teeth at Liu Bai but didn't get angry. After all, today was the day to blow up the seal.
"Okay, I just bought breakfast for you, come and eat quickly."
Nashida chuckled and walked to the table.
She had never taken the initiative to wake Liu Bai up, but she almost knew the time when Liu Bai naturally got up every day, so about ten minutes ago she went out to the street to buy breakfast.
"I'll go first! My stomach is already empty after being stepped on!"
Upon hearing this, Ajiu immediately came over.
After having a delicious breakfast, Liu Bai took Ajiu to the door.
With the efficiency of the Fatui, the explosives should have arrived today.
"Girl, please look after the house. I will come back and take you away after I finish my work today."
Liu Bai gave Nashida some instructions, then condensed a flying sword and flew into the air with Ajiu, flying towards Jueyunjian.
"I'm really worried. And why don't you take me with you? I can probably help a little bit..."
Watching Liu Bai fly away, Nashida sighed.
At the same time, in Aozang Mountain, inside the cave of Master Liuyun Jiefeng.
"Shen He, you finally woke up, are you feeling unwell?"
Master Liuyun Jiefeng noticed that Shen He had opened her eyes and immediately asked her worriedly.
"Master... I'm fine, what's wrong with me?"
Shen He shook his head and looked around in confusion.
Why do I feel a dull pain in the back of my head?
"I also want to know what happened. Yesterday, the evil spirit in you was out of control. When I arrived, you were already unconscious in front of the Fulong Tree."
Master Liuyun Jiefeng explained to Shen He what happened yesterday.
Shen He held his forehead and tried to recall what happened, but he couldn't remember what happened at that time.
"I only remember feeling a sense of malice near the Fulong tree, and I don't remember anything after that..."
After a while, Shen He shook his head and answered.
"Fulong Tree..."
"Could it be the Dragon King Ruotu? Has the seal been loosened?"
After listening to Shen He's explanation, Master Liuyun Jiefeng was thinking in his heart.
"Well, I'll go see if Lishui and the others have returned. If they have, I'll ask them to check the seal under the Fulong Tree."
"Shen He, you should stay in the cave and rest today. Don't walk around until you are well again."
After thinking for a while, Master Liuyun Jiefeng made this decision and then gave Shen He some instructions.
"Yes, Master."
Shen He nodded, and only after Master Liuyun Jiefeng left did she rub her belly.
"Master seems to have some fresh herbs in his cave, which should be edible."
