Chapter 36: Dust-Cleansing Bell
Chapter 36: Dust-Cleansing Bell
Wang Xing found a homestay in Liyue Harbor and stayed there. The next morning, he announced in the square the story of the Emperor killing the monster "Eight Qiong".
The residents of Liyue Harbor all cheered and raised their arms. They had seen the giant whale flying into the deep sea yesterday and were already stunned on the spot.
Some people were so shocked that they couldn't sleep late at night, and when they saw the kite flying across the sky, they naturally believed it without a doubt.
Wang Xing took advantage of this incident to completely announce his identity as an immortal, and stated his intention to build Liyue Harbor, and got to know a group of leaders and technical talents.
Wang Xing discovered that most of the immortals were focused on protecting Liyue and did not actually care much about the development of Liyue Harbor.
Only the Geo Emperor would grant oracles every year to guide the business development direction of Liyue.
But the reason why it is the majority is that there is naturally an immortal who is an exception.
"Are you Guixing?"
A deep voice came from the horizon, and a rock fairy deer came from Tianheng Mountain. True Lord Xie Yue Zhu Yang "That's right, I'm back to the stars. The name of True Lord Xie Yue Zhu Yang is well-known. I..."
"No need to be polite, you did a great job."
"The Eight Snakes disaster has been resolved, and you have made an indelible contribution."
"But... this doesn't mean that you can manage Liyue Harbor well!"
He suddenly changed the subject and his words became stern, as if he was trying to intimidate the newcomer.
"Since I have signed a contract with the Emperor, I will naturally do my best, and this city will become more and more prosperous."
Wang Xing brought up the Emperor and the contract, and retorted in a seemingly humble manner.
"Oh? I hope so."
He took off into the air again and flew away.
"I'll keep an eye on you!"
……
Afterwards, Wang Xing organized a meeting of Liyue’s seven leaders to discuss Liyue’s development.
"The Emperor's oracle this year is for some of us to move to Guili Plain, north of Tianheng Mountain, and cultivate the land.
The reason is the disaster of the "Eight Snakes", which has hit the fishing and trade of Liyue Harbor."
"Now that the Eight Tribulus are dead, the ocean has returned to calm. Although there are still many demons and monsters in the sea, most of them are entrenched in the deep sea, so there is no need to worry too much."
"Of course, we will continue to obey the Emperor's oracle and relocate some of the population back to Liyuan."
"However, Liyue Harbor is currently in a state of disrepair and needs labor."
"The Emperor is very far-sighted, how can you see through him?"
"you!"
……
Wang Xing saw that the seven people in front of him were about to turn the discussion into a quarrel, so he hurried forward to stop them.
They still respected Wang Xing very much, and the meeting returned to normal.
It was finally decided to relocate a small number of people to Guiliyuan, but the number was much smaller than originally planned.
After that, it is the issue of urban construction.
Wang Xing knew that he was just a high school student and his knowledge of urban construction was definitely not as good as these old guys.
If an amateur rashly criticizes an expert, he may easily end up making things worse.
But as someone who returned from the future to the past, Wang Xing has a relatively good understanding of the political system and economic structure of the future Liyue's "Seven Stars and Eight Gates".
You can explain a few things to them and break through the limitations of their era.
After listening to Wang Xing's story, everyone couldn't help but marvel at it and quickly fell into a heated discussion.
Three days later, Wang Xing compiled all the knowledge he could say into a book with a scholar for their reference.
Afterwards, he took Hu Ling and left Liyue Harbor and returned to Guiliyuan's home.
"did you miss me!"
Wang Xing pushed the door open and shouted with a smile.
puff!puff!
Two beams of salutes exploded, and countless pieces of paper fell on the heads of Wang Xing and Hu Ling.
"Welcome home!"
Bai Heng gave a warm welcome, but little Ganyu was startled by Wang Xing's sudden door push and was a beat late before he blew the fireworks and spoke quickly.
“Haha… Was this made by Guizhong or the villagers?”
Wang Xing took the salute barrel from Bai Heng's hand and looked at it carefully and asked.
Bai Heng looked at Hu Ling beside Wang Xing and responded.
"It was bought in the market. This must be the child you mentioned."
"Ah."
Wang Xing had already communicated with Bai Heng via telepathy in Liyue Harbor, informing him of some recent developments, naturally including this matter.
"Hello, sister. My name is Hu Ling. You can call me Ling'er~"
She introduced herself without any stage fright, which was in stark contrast to the somewhat shy little Ganyu next to Bai Heng.
"Ling'er is also very cute. Come in and have dinner. We will be a family from now on."
Hu Ling was much younger than Gan Yu, and Bai Heng gently carried her into the house.
……
at night
Ling'er was chatting with Xiao Ganyu in the house, but Xiao Ganyu was a little reserved in answering questions.
"It really didn't go well."
Wang Xing said while standing on the balcony looking at Ganyu in the house.
"Well, there seems to be a layer of barrier between Xiao Ganyu and them, and she can't integrate into them."
Bai Heng sighed softly.
Ganyu hasn't had any luck making friends these past few days, and it's not because the children in the village are ignoring her.
Rather, they felt constrained by Ganyu's identity and peculiar appearance.
Ganyu was shy to begin with, and the combined effect of these two factors made the atmosphere extremely awkward.
"Let it be, she still has a long way to go."
Wang Xing looked towards the Huaqing Guizang Secret Palace and fell into deep thought.
……
The next day, Wang Xing went to Huaqing Guizang Secret Palace to visit Gui Zhong.
"Gui Xing, I heard from King Yan that it was thanks to you that we were able to kill the Eight Tribulations this time."
"It was just external help. I didn't do anything."
Was it brought from another world, Guizhong wondered.
This made her even more curious about the outside world, and she suggested with a playful smile:
"You are here to learn mechanical engineering, but I have to pay tuition~"
"Hmm... just take the stories outside the world as tuition~"
"Ah."
Wang Xing would have to take Guizhong out sooner or later, so it would have been helpful if he knew this earlier.
So without thinking too much, I nodded in agreement.
……
One year has passed in a blink of an eye
During this year, Wang Xing often went to Guizhong to learn mechanical engineering, but he only learned the basics.
Compared with the final result, it is probably the difference between a PhD and an elementary school student.
"If I had God's Eye, I would definitely be able to learn it well! Yeah, that's it!"
Wang Xing began to pass the blame, thinking it was due to his inability to control the elemental force.
In fact, the main reason is that he is not very talented in this aspect. Those guys in the Ministry of Education can create the "God of Righteousness" even without the Eye of God!
"What is the Eye of God?"
Gui finally asked doubtfully.
"Ah, it's okay."
……
During this period, Gui Zhong would listen to Wang Xing talk about his experiences on Blue Planet in his spare time, and then he would start telling stories from other dimensions.
The story of a train group that travels through space along the path of "pioneering" and embarks on exciting adventures on planets.
The story of three girls who grow up little by little, rely on each other, fight for all the beauty in the world, and finally cross the "end".
The story of an unknown captain, driving a space battleship named "Hyperion", traveling through various worlds to save countless girls.
……
“What are you making today?”
Wang Xing naturally knelt down opposite Gui Zhong's wooden table, looked at the various metal parts floating in front of her chest and asked.
“It’s a bell that can compose music by itself~”
(Bell? Is it time now? Then... the Demon God War is about to begin!)
Wang Xing frowned and thought.
Gui finally saw Wang Xing frowning and smiled slightly.
"I put a lot of effort into this, and the music composition process is very sophisticated."
"Gui Xing, it's normal that you don't understand~"
She wiped her nose with some pride.
"Well, Guizhong is really amazing."
Wang Xing had long given up on learning these advanced mechanical techniques, so all he needed to do was to make her happy.
"hey-hey……"
She started to giggle again.
……
After a while, Dichen Linggui finally stuck out her tongue excitedly, picked up a piece of yellow energy-storing jade with tweezers, and slowly approached the bell.
The bell and the jade seemed to have some kind of attraction, and dazzling electric arcs began to appear between them.
Snapped--!
Wang Xing saw her gently loosen her grip, and with a crisp sound, the jade was embedded in the bell.
Gui Zhong was slightly surprised. She wanted to install it directly, but accidentally let the jade slip out of her hand and was sucked into the bell.
But after seeing the perfectly embedded jade, he quickly turned to joy and shouted excitedly:
"Done!"
