Chapter 50: Day 1 of Inazuma's Surroundings
The route to Inazuma is not complicated, it just requires an accurate direction, and thunderstorms only occur around the sea outside Inazuma, not near Liyue.
There is no one living near Guyun Pavilion, which is a good starting point.
Places with abundant water elements always make Shui Qingli feel particularly comfortable, and the speed of the power running is several times faster than on land. Moreover, the sea water on the continent of Teyvat is very clean.
Clean in the physical sense. The technology of the continent of Teyvat has not yet reached its peak. People are more accustomed to using elemental power to do various things. After the elemental power dissipates, it returns to the earth veins and will not cause so much pollution.
Of course there are exceptions. For example, after Zhidong obtained part of Kanreya's alchemy, he exhausted the national strength to improve the strength of the people for that goal, which naturally had more side effects.
The same is true for the machine operating in Inazuma Tamashii Sand. Due to the leakage of the evil spirit, the people on the island could not bear it and became infected with the disease. On Blue Star, it has a more scientific name, called radiation.
Although Osel and Basher were suppressed in the outer sea of Liyue, the failure to kill them resulted in no demon remnants appearing to harm merchant ships and fishermen. This is truly cause for celebration.
When setting out from Guyun Pavilion, Shui Qingli was walking on the sea. He stood on the water as if it were flat ground. Of course, the most important thing was that he didn't want to go into the sea. What if he met Osel?
When he got further away, since no one could see him, he simply changed his tricks. He used water to condense a transparent boat and lay on it, or went down to the sea to play with the fish. When he got tired, he went into the cave to eat something. Apart from being bored, there was nothing much going on.
The cave that Zhongli built for him was customized completely according to the environment for water-based cultivation. Although there was a false sky, there was very little land below. There were only a few small islands, and the rest was endless water. As for his residence, it was naturally under the water.
The waves on the water surface are rolling, making it impossible to see what is below, but if you dive into the water, you can see a palace standing on the bottom of the water.
The style was built according to the traditional eaves and design of Liyue, and a lot of seaweed and corals that can be planted in the water were added around it. For lighting, a lot of luminous night stones were laid, making it bright.
Although it can't be compared with Shui Linglong Palace, it at least looks like a residence.
When he first entered and looked at the empty cave, Shui Qingli's instinct, which was ingrained in his bones as a flower-growing family, seemed to awaken.
This is too bald, not worth reading at all.
So during his time in Liyue, he collected a variety of materials, mainly various minerals. After all, ordinary trees and plants cannot survive underwater.
But how to build it becomes a new problem.
Fortunately, when Mr. Zhongli created the cave for him, he did not forget A Yuan, the exclusive spirit of the cave, otherwise Shui Qingli would really be in trouble.
So with the help of A Yuan, he successfully built a... uh, underwater house?
This can't even be compared to Shui Linglong Palace!
Shui Qingli was not discouraged after failing in the first construction project. Instead, he turned to seek advice from Mr. Zhongli. Such a small issue regarding house construction was naturally not difficult for the knowledgeable Mr. Zhongli.
Shui Qingli, who obtained a detailed house construction drawing and a furniture manufacturing list, embarked on the road of collecting. In order to prevent the furniture from rotting in water, he specially collected furniture drawings made of various stones.
At least he had a place to sleep. As for eating, who eats in the water? Of course he floated up to eat!
In this way, the days on the sea passed one by one, and he was getting closer and closer to his destination - Minggami Island.
At this time, Kong had just finished a great adventure... Ah, bah, bah, no... he had just robbed the prison of Tenryo Bugyo.
After Princess Shiratana of the Kamisato family guided him to see that the three people who lost the Eye of God seemed to have lost the most important thing in their soul, he knew that he could never stand idly by.
"The Eye of God represents a person's most persistent wish."
This was something new he had come to realize.
I once heard Mr. Zhongli talk about the significance of the Eye of God.
When faced with circumstances beyond our control, people always lament their own powerlessness. However, at the steepest turning point in life, if a mortal's "desire" reaches its limit, the sight of the gods will be cast down.
But can a person who has lost his desires and his own persistent beliefs still be considered alive?
Therefore, under the leadership of Thomas, he found the [rebels] who gathered because of the Eye Hunting Order, Xiao Gong of the Naganohara Fireworks Shop, a very enthusiastic, lively and helpful girl.
She is outgoing, straightforward, enthusiastic and likable, and always talks to people with a smile.
Come to think of it, all the friends of the Fire God's Eye that he knew had such enthusiastic and lively personalities, such as Amber who had helped him a lot when he first came to Mondstadt, Klee who loved to play around, the enthusiastic Bennett, and Xiangling who loved cooking...
"But Master Diluk is also the holder of the Fire God's Eye?"
After hearing Kong's analysis, Paimon doubtfully dispelled Kong's thoughts with one sentence.
Thinking of Diluk's lively and enthusiastic look, Sora himself couldn't help but shudder.
Uh...it seems his idea is not entirely accurate.
Anyway, with the help of Xiao Gong, Kong sneaked into the prison of Tenryo Bugyo, quietly rescued Master Masakatsu who helped everyone create the fake Eye of God, and also set off a big fireworks display.
This was the first step to the success of the plan. On the same day, I also had Inazuma hotpot with Ayaka and Thomas at the Mulou Tea House and had a very enjoyable time.
However, when he went to Mulou Tea House again the next day, he heard that the girl had brought bad news.
"On my way here, I heard that Thomas was captured by the Tenryo Bugyo."
"I heard that General Lei Dian will soon hold a ceremony to hunt the 100th Eye of God in front of the Thousand-armed and Hundred-eyed statue."
"And the owner of the 100th Eye of God is probably... Thomas."
The friends who had gathered together to play and eat yesterday were going to become the next victims of the Eye Hunting Order today. Thinking of the current situation of those who had their Eyes of God taken away, Kong couldn't help but frown.
Can a person who has lost his desire still be considered alive?
"No, I have to save him!"
Kamisato Ayaka was in a state of panic. Thomas had been by her side since she was a child and had always been the best helper to her and her brother. The three of them were no longer just ordinary superiors and subordinates in a relationship, but had become like a family. If something happened to Thomas, how would she explain to her brother?
"no!"
Kong immediately raised his hand to stop her.

The Shui Linglong Palace is too luxurious. I am not good at building it myself. If any of the original masters has reproduced it, please let me know. I will go there in a minute... I beg for the copy code
