Shen Qin told her that Zhongli had entrusted him to develop Guiliyuan, and also told her that he had obtained the Qiankun Mustard Seed Talisman from Grandma Ping.

“Since Gechenlangshi agreed to teach you the Space Immortal Technique for the development of Guiliyuan, I believe she has already let go of that matter in her heart… In this case, I have no reason to stop you.”

Master Liuyunjiefeng waved his wings, and a thick notebook appeared in front of Shen Qin. He quickly took it and said, “This notebook contains all the ideas about mechanical devices that I have recorded over the past few thousand years. You can take it. As for how much you can gain from it, it depends on your own understanding.”

Even Ge Chenlangshi failed to accept him as a disciple, and she also understood that the possibility of him becoming her disciple was extremely low, so it would be better not to mention anything that would only cause trouble for herself.

Shen Qin glanced through the notes and found that they were full of handwriting and drawings. He was surprised and said to Master Liuyunjiefeng nervously, “This was written by you personally… It’s too precious to give it to me like this…”

Before she opened her mouth, Gan Yu spoke up: “Shen Qin, just accept it without worry. This is not the master’s original. She used magic to copy dozens of notebooks, waiting for someone to come to find her one day because of admiration for her mechanical skills, so that she can distribute them. It’s a pity that thousands of years have passed, and no one in the world has heard of her reputation…”

“Ahem! Ganyu, don’t mention this matter in front of outsiders…” Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun interrupted Ganyu and looked at Shen Qin, “Since you have obtained the mechanical device, you can go down the mountain. When Guiliyuan starts to be developed, I will come to see it.”

Gan Yu turned around and said to them, “I’ll chat with Master here for a while. Yaoyao, I’ll ask you to take them down the mountain.”

“Leave it to me!” Yaoyao nodded reliably, “Then Sister Ganyu, Aunt Liuyun, goodbye!”

Shen Qin and the others were moved out of the cave by Master Liuyun Jiefeng using his immortal power. But before they were moved out, he seemed to hear her say again –

“Ganyu, when you were a child…”

His expression suddenly became a little strange.

As for the childhood of Master Gulu Gulu Rolling Down the Mountain, everyone knows that she was once a little fat girl, and later she lost weight and became what she is today.

But there is one secret about her that I believe many people don’t know.

During the Demon War, she was swallowed by a giant beast, but because she was “as fat as a ball”, she got stuck in the beast’s esophagus, and eventually she easily subdued the beast.

Chapter 238: Can people be resurrected after death?

On the way back to Liyue Harbor from Aozang Mountain, Shen Qin asked the driver, Shatang, to stop after reaching Guiliyuan, and then he sat in the passenger seat and began to study the mechanical skills of Master Liuyun Jiefeng.

Sugar felt helpless as she watched him fall into work mode again. It was only two days of rest, but he subconsciously started studying something again.

At the beginning, it seemed like she was the one who was more obsessed with research?

Shen Qin: In fact, I was PUA’d by the system, and unknowingly became the person I am now, feeling uncomfortable if I don’t do research.

He did not notice Sucrose’s reaction, but quickly immersed himself in the world of mechanical engineering.

The mechanical arts in this notebook can actually be divided into two parts. One part is the mechanical arts left behind by Gui Zhong before his death, including the Gui Zhong Machine and the Di Chen Bell, which were compiled and recorded by Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng. The other part is the mechanical arts that she is good at.

Liuyun’s early attainments in mechanical engineering were indeed not as good as Guizhong’s, but for a long time afterwards, Guizhong’s mechanical engineering could never catch up with Liuyun’s, because her time was forever stuck in the period of the Demon War.

Shen Qin: Damn it, I have to get stabbed just for learning mechanical engineering, right?

However, the two people’s mechanical techniques have a common feature, that is, most of them are used in conjunction with immortal power, so that they can play their greatest role.

Another part of the mechanical technology does not rely on immortal power, but also makes use of some “specialties” of the Liyue area, such as floating stones, immortal talismans, etc.

All in all, it is very Liyue-style.

While Shen Qin was digesting the mechanical techniques in his notes, the car had already driven to the three-way intersection north of Guiliyuan. Sandang woke him up from his thoughts and asked, “Are you going to explore it?”

“Let’s take a preliminary look first. Keqing has already sent me the original data of Guili that they collected earlier, but there are some things that I still need to see in person.”

He looked at Yaoyao: “Yaoyao, do you know where I can roughly see the overall terrain of Guiliyuan?”

“Well, let me think… maybe the highest point of Wangshu Inn would be fine.”

“Okay, then let’s go to Dihua Island first.”

This place was not far from Dihuazhou, and they drove for about half an hour before arriving at the bustling Wangshu Inn again.

When Filgodette learned that he came to explore Guiliyuan, she enthusiastically took them to the small balcony on the top floor and then climbed over to the roof: “This is the highest point of the inn.”

Shen Qin glanced at the lobby platform just below the roof and asked her tentatively, “Is it possible that we didn’t need to take such a long detour and could have just flown up from the platform using the flying skateboard?”

Phil Gedette: “…”

Looking at the somewhat embarrassed innkeeper, Shen Qin smiled, stepped directly on the flying skateboard, and raised the viewing angle by another 50 meters.

He used the bracelet as a telescope, carefully observing the overall topography of Guiliyuan and the distribution of ancient ruins. At the same time, he switched between the data provided by Keqing and the map of Guiliyuan from time to time, matching the real scene in his field of vision with the locations on the map one by one.

He stood in the air for about 20 minutes, recording a lot of data and inspiration, but finally had to land on the platform because he was tired of squatting. (The lower the center of gravity of the flying skateboard, the higher the flying altitude.)

Next time I should just make a flying machine that can control the altitude while sitting!

The three girls sat side by side on three small stools, happily eating the snacks that Philgodette had given them.

“How is it? Have you collected all the data?” Sugar handed him the pastry that she obviously had left over.

Shen Qin took it and stuffed it into his mouth, mumbling, “Almost done… cough!”

She opened a bottle of purified water and handed it to him: “Eat slowly.”

He gulped down a few gulps of water and finally felt better. Then he looked at the bottle of purified water in his hand and raised his eyebrows: “Are we selling our water in Liyue?”

“You may not believe this, but among all the products in Academy City, purified water has the largest daily shipment volume, because its hygiene level is several orders of magnitude higher than ordinary drinking water, and it is very convenient to drink right after opening. It has almost become the daily drinking water for everyone in the Three Kingdoms.”

Sugar said with some pride.

Drinking water was a project she led, and she was naturally very happy to have achieved such success.

But Shen Qin was a little worried: “With such a large shipment volume, will the water in the two lakes in Academy City be drained?”

“Don’t worry about that. Several of my assistants are now looking for other water sources in the Three Kingdoms, such as the deep mineral water in the Wine Lake, the spring water formed by the melting snow on the Snow Mountain, the ice water on the other side of the Winter, and the active water to the west of the Liyue Bishuiyuan…”

Shatang was talking excitedly until she saw Shen Qin staring at her with a smile. She stopped talking and lowered her head shyly, looking at the patterns on the wooden board under her feet.

“Huh? Where did Klee go again?” Shen Qin turned around and found that Klee, who was beside him just now, was gone.

Yaoyao pointed to the roof: “She said she went to play with Xiaoming.”

Sandang raised her head and said sadly, “Xiaoming’s memory is getting more and more blurred. She only remembers the first two lines of the nursery rhyme that Hu Tao taught her. But she seems to have always remembered the contract with Hu Tao. She has not appeared in front of Yan Xiao and rarely even comes to this platform.”

“Humans and ghosts have different paths. She no longer belongs to the world of the living.”

“…”

“Brother Shen Qin, can people be resurrected after death?” Yaoyao suddenly asked him seriously.

He looked at her: “Why do you ask?”

“I want to revive someone…” Yaoyao leaned on the railing and looked into the distance. “Several times I saw Master sitting there alone, facing Guiliyuan, stroking a bell, as if he was missing someone.”

“Later I asked Uncle Lishui and Aunt Liuyun, but they both kept silent about it and told me not to mention it in front of Master.”

“So I did some research on my own and found out that there was a demon god named ‘Guizhong’ in Liyue. She died in Guiliyuan a thousand years ago to protect the ancestors of Liyue… Could she be the person that Master often misses?”

Yaoyao was silent for a while, then turned back to Shen Qin and said, “Brother Shen Qin, forget what I just said. When a person dies, it is like a light going out, and there is no way to revive him, let alone a powerful demon god? Even a magical magic like the immortal law can’t do it, is there any other way in the world that can do it?”

Yes, screenwriter and planner.

Shen Qin thought of Xingyin in the snowy mountains. She was a person who died three thousand years ago and then resurrected in the earth veins. Although the real reason for her resurrection is still unknown, there must be more than one example of people coming back to life in the long history of Teyvat.

If this power can be mastered, does it mean that the demons who died in the Demon War can be summoned back to Teyvat?

For example, Yixiao Daotian Zhenjun, Guizhong, and the four great Yakshas!

They didn’t notice that above the inn, the Demon-Subduing King was floating with his arms folded across his chest and an expressionless face.

Chapter 239 I, Shen Qin, am truly a kind person

After collecting some data at Wangshu Inn, the four of them had lunch here, and then Shen Qin suggested taking a walk along the coastline east of Guiliyuan.

Yaoyao had no objection. She had already asked for leave from Grandma Ping today. Her mission was to accompany Shen Qin and the others around and to protect their safety.

But Klee was so happy that she kept rummaging around in her backpack, mumbling things like “Wouldn’t the fish in the sea taste better?”, “We can blow them all up”, “The bomb is coming”, etc. Then Sucrose grabbed her ear and warned her – frying fish at the beach is absolutely not allowed!

When she was in Mondstadt, the Knights could still tolerate her, but in Liyue, getting into trouble would only cause trouble for the Thousand Winds Army.

After Klee’s repeated assurances, Sucrose let her go.

The four of them drove south along the coastline. Shen Qin got out of the car from time to time to collect various data, and then wrote and drew on the terminal.

Shatang sat on a big rock by the sea, staring blankly at Shen Qin who was working hard while floating on the sea not far away.

Klee flew around, throwing rocks into the sea like bombs.

Yaoyao stopped her and taught her how to skip stones on the water. The two of them had a lot of fun.

The salty sea breeze blew on Sugar’s face, the sound of waves was endless, the sea surface was sparkling, and far away on the sea was the Guyun Pavilion with its strange rocks.

She felt a little strange. She had never thought that one day she would come out of the laboratory and travel to the distant Liyue to enjoy the scenery.

The east coast line of Guiliyuan is quite long, and they have to deal with some monsters like Ice Prank Flowers and ignorant fools during the journey.

For Tartaglia’s sake, Shen Qin asked the three women to intensify their efforts and liberate them as soon as possible so that they would not suffer too much before returning to the arms of the Ice Queen.

Shen Qin asked Haro to fire a single shot to send away the invisible debt collector who was escaping, and nodded with satisfaction – I, Shen Qin, am really a kind-hearted person!

After walking along the entire coastline, more than three hours had passed. According to Klee, it was time for afternoon tea.

The little guy was obviously hungry.

But the storage space in Haro and Xiaodu’s stomachs was empty, and the snacks they brought out in the morning had been eaten by Keli.

“Hmm… the storage space in their bodies is not enough. It seems that if we are going to travel for a long time in the future, a larger storage space is still necessary…”

Shen Qin thought about it and had a preliminary idea in his mind.

But now is not the time to think about this. The most important thing is to bring everyone back to Liyue Harbor. Klee is already starving, the light in her big eyes has disappeared, and she collapsed weakly on the chair.

Sandang looked at her with amusement: “You were still alive and kicking half a minute ago, how come you became like this after hearing that the snacks were all eaten?”

“Klee has turned on super power saving mode now.” The little guy said seriously, “This is to prevent me from starving to death before I can eat the delicious food.”

“Alright, alright, let’s go back to Liyue Harbor.”

Following Yaoyao’s guidance, Shen Qin returned to Liyue’s main road via a small canyon at the southernmost end of the coastline, and then returned to Liyue Harbor.

The existence of this road was beyond his expectations, as it was not mentioned in the information Keqing provided.

Yaoyao explained: “This path is only known to some old people in Liyue Harbor. When they were young, they would go to the beach from here to catch seafood, but young people nowadays basically don’t catch seafood anymore, so only a few people know of its existence.”

Shen Qin looked at her strangely, feeling that she was speaking as a member of an older generation.

After entering Liyue Harbor, they randomly found a pastry shop and let Klee recharge her energy first.

Shen Qin found some time to contact Keqing on the chat: I went to Guiliyuan today and have a preliminary plan. Can we sit down and talk tomorrow?

Keqing: You went to investigate by yourself? Didn’t you tell me when you left? I will go with you! [刀子][刀子][刀子]

Shen Qin: I went to visit the immortal today, and on the way back I stopped by Guiliyuan for a look.

Keqing: …Well, your execution ability is even better than mine! Now that you have completed your inspection, I will make an appointment with Ningguang.

In less than half a minute, she replied: Let’s meet at Qun Yu Pavilion tomorrow morning. Ningguang said she would treat you to breakfast!

Shen Qin reminded: It is best to go to Guiliyuan, as it will be more intuitive to follow the on-site description.

Keqing: It’s okay. Ningguang said that when the time comes, we can directly control the Jade Pavilion to fly over Guiliyuan.

Rich woman is awesome!

Shen Qin: By the way, can you help me arrange an alchemy workshop? I want to study some small things.

Keqing: Are you going to develop new alchemical products? No problem!

She sent Shen Qin a location of Yujingtai: This is our officially built alchemy workshop. You can use the facilities and raw materials inside freely. Just tell the management if you need anything and it will be delivered to you in the shortest possible time!

After turning off the communication with Keqing, Shen Qin contacted Zhongli again and asked him to go to Guiliyuan together tomorrow morning.

He responded very quickly. Within two or three seconds, he sent a “OK” emoticon.

Shen Qin wondered if he was surfing intensively in the community when he had nothing to do.

“Sugar, take Klee to Liyue Harbor tonight. I want to research some things.” Shen Qin said to Sugar.

“Eh? Do you need my help?”

Shen Qin shook his head: “No, I want to study the space magic and the mechanism of the immortals, which has little to do with traditional alchemy.”

“Okay, then I’ll take Keli to find Ying. They shouldn’t go out of town to do commissions at night.”

The wilds of Liyue at night are almost a restricted area for humans. Even experienced adventurers rarely leave the city after the sun sets, because once night falls, that is when monsters in the wild are most active.

The number of monsters in Liyue is simply not on the same level as that in Mond, and they are more powerful and aggressive.

After filling her stomach with pastries, Shen Qin sent Yaoyao to Yujingtai. She wanted to visit her old master.

Looking at her reliable back, Shen Qin rubbed Keli’s hair and said, “Keli, when can you be as reliable as Sister Yaoyao?”
