Qiu Nian nodded, and then walked towards Dihua Island with Ying and Paimeng.
After the three people walked away, a tall woman wearing a blue and white leather jacket appeared.
A woman with a mysterious aura, wearing the Eye of the Water God, walked over.
The person who arrived was none other than Ye Lan.
Behind her were more than ten members of the Thousand Rock Army.
"Tie up all these fools and take them away."
Yelan looked at the group of fools lying on the ground and gave instructions.
The leader of the Thousand Rock Army behind him nodded upon hearing this.
He then led the rest of the Thousand Rock Army to tie up the unconscious Fools.
At this moment, Qiu Nian and his two companions were walking and enjoying the scenery.
"Speaking of which... you can actually manipulate two elemental forces."
"This is the first time I've ever seen something like this."
"Even the holder of the Eye of God cannot do this."
"Not to mention you don't even have the Eye of God."
Qiu Nian seemed to have thought of something.
Pretending to know nothing, he asked Ying beside him.
"Her constitution might be somewhat special."
"Whenever she arrives in a country, she will receive the corresponding elemental power by praying to the statue of the god for the first time during the seven days."
"Moreover, it can change the form of elements within the body at will."
"To achieve the effect of switching between different elemental forces."
Paimon glanced at Ying beside him and explained to Qiu Nian.
"Indeed it is."
"But I don't know the principle behind it either."
Ying nodded and then spoke to Qiu Nian.
"I can't believe such a thing actually happened..."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian rested one hand on her chin.
He muttered to himself, feigning incomprehension.
"By the way, you said you practiced your martial arts for two and a half years to become this good."
"But haven't you always lived in Jueyun Pass?"
"No one taught you, so how did you learn it?"
Paimon seemed to have thought of something and asked Qiu Nian with some doubt.
Chapter 36 Dihua Isle
"Hmm... Three years ago, I found a tattered book in the house."
"Fortunately, the contents of the book were not damaged, and that book contained many martial arts techniques."
"That house was passed down from our ancestors."
"So I think that book must have been passed down from an ancestor."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian solemnly explained to Ying and Paimeng beside him.
"Wow..."
"Your ancestor who knew martial arts was amazing!"
Upon hearing this, Paimon felt that Qiu Nian's ancestors were very powerful.
Moreover, Qiu Nian's ancestors actually left behind a martial arts manual.
Could it be that the ancestor of the one who died in the autumn was a martial arts master?
"Ha ha..."
"I also think he's very capable."
Qiu Nian chuckled softly upon hearing this.
The three of them chatted as they walked toward Dihua Isle.
Soon after, the three spotted thirty miners in the distance, seemingly talking about something.
Twenty-eight of the miners were wearing blue clothes.
In contrast, the remaining two were dressed in red.
They clearly don't come from the same place.
However, Qiu Nian and the other two ignored it and continued walking towards Dihua Island.
Qiu Nian, on the other hand, began to sense things and listened to what they were saying.
“Small-scale miners like them are all subcontracted multiple times.”
The leader of the twenty-eight miners whispered to an apprentice miner beside him.
"So in the end, only two people were left to work on that project?"
The apprentice miner found it hard to believe.
"At least they have a conscience."
"Give it back to the remaining two people."
"I once saw someone digging a medium-sized mine."
Upon hearing this, the lead miner glanced at the two miners in red and sighed.
"Hmph, how can one person mine a medium-sized mine?"
The apprentice miner scoffed, clearly not believing it at all.
"When we first started mining that medium-sized mine."
"His son has just started learning to read and write."
The lead miner looked at the apprentice miner beside him and began to explain.
"And what about his son now?"
The apprentice, who was absent from work, asked with some confusion.
"I'm talking to you now."
Upon hearing this, the lead miner replied with a statement that stunned the latter.
"Ha ha..."
Hearing this, Qiu Nian was amused.
By the time we arrived at Dihua Island, it was already getting light.
What unfolds before Qiu Nian's eyes is a vast expanse of natural shallow wetlands.
This area is covered with waterways, and a network of rivers crisscrosses the landscape.
Many places have wooden bridges and boats moored on the water.
Numerous inns and guesthouses were set up here.
To provide convenience for pedestrians passing by.
Reeds also grow extensively in the shallows.
Bathed in the morning sunlight, it was incredibly beautiful.
Qiu Nian took a breath of fresh air.
Then, from a distance, they saw Zhongli gazing into the distance under a tree.
So the three of them walked towards Zhongli's location.
"You guys are very punctual. I just arrived not long ago."
"Is Qunyu Pavilion fun?"
Zhongli looked at the three people walking towards him, waved to Ying and Paimon, and asked.
"Huge, gorgeous, and expensive!"
"It's the most expensive building I've ever seen!"
Upon hearing this, Paimon exaggeratedly drew a large circle with both arms.
Even if we place a building like Qunyu Pavilion in history.
"It's a rare sight indeed."
Qiu Nian looked at Zhong Li in front of her and made her comments.
"However, as things stand now, if Qunyu Pavilion is second, then no one in Liyue dares to claim first place."
"You should have met Ningguang by now. How did your conversation go?"
Zhongli nodded upon hearing this, and then asked Qiu Nian and the other two.
"She's so rich, so generous, and such a kind person!"
Paimon looked at Zhongli in front of him and replied with a smile.
"But it feels familiar..."
"It's also a merchant's weapon."
Ying looked at Paimon beside her and shook her head slightly.
