Chapter 409 The Salt of Deep Locks

 The masonry structures on both sides of the stone gate are built up along the mountain, forming a wooden plank road for transporting mine carts and for miners to walk, connecting the mountain to form a fortress capable of both offense and defense.曱

The setting sun is like a fire, and the rice fields outside Dihuazhou are glowing with water-like tender green under the breeze, and the crisscrossing ridges of the fields mark tic characters among the green buds.

There is a circular turntable where the fields and the river meet. It uses the current in the river to guide the river water into the field canal. Paimon read in Teywat Travel Notes that this kind of wooden disk is called a water wheel by the Liyue people.

The invention of God’s final death.

In ancient times, "Dihuazhou" was also an area under the jurisdiction of the Dust God. Although its mineral resources were not as abundant as those of Tianqiu Valley and Liyue Port, its population was not as numerous and strong as the tribes ruled by [Rock King] Morax in the south.

But life here is rich and stable.

People will not be frightened by the cruelty of the Demon God's war, fearing that today's peace will be precarious, nor will they endure heavy labor under the rule of the Dust God.

But the peace of Guiliji was eventually polluted by the war. The ancient streets, markets, and fields were all submerged in the karma residue left after the death of the devil, and the once prosperous Dihuazhou was no longer suitable for human habitation.

However, the little foxes and wild sparrows here are very beautiful, with shiny coats. I heard that many of the offerings made by the Liyue people to the Rock God were stolen by these bad guys. If they are hunted and roasted, they will have a fruity flavor, right?

"By the way, Famas...why did that guy named Dainsreb run away when he saw you?"曱

If you want to get to the Salt of the Earth, you still need to cross a tidal flat flooded by the river.

Paimon lay on the traveler's head, recalling what he saw on the Liyue Pier, and suddenly curiously asked the boy next to him.

"Because after the failure of the war against the will of heaven, the one-eyed king Irmin of Kanria betrayed the [Golden Alliance], withdrew all troops and aid on the surface, and even stole supplies and research that originally belonged to Munata

Product."

"A loyal dog raised by a traitor, shouldn't he run away when he sees me?"

Famas sneered and shook his head, causing the travelers and Paimon to be extremely surprised.

"Eh? But you don't... have the same ideal, why...?"

The little mascot blinked his eyes and stammered in response, seemingly unable to understand what Kanrea's intention was.曱

Obviously when he was at the Northland Bank, Famas also swore that everyone was striving for the same ideal, but why did Kanreia make the decision to abandon the Golden Alliance?

"Because Kanria is the pride of mankind, and it is also a country without gods."

"The elderly Ilmin and some upper-class nobles believe that it is unacceptable for Kanria, as the pride of mankind, to form an alliance with the gods."

"No matter how much I love humans, I am always a demon god descended from the sky, and Munata is also a country ruled by gods."

"What's more, we failed. The loser never has the right to choose."

Famas's red eyes were full of ridicule towards the one-eyed regent and the decadent nobles, and finally turned into deep helplessness.

After the defeat of Munata, the situation was in chaos. Countless people tried to suck blood and flesh from the behemoth of the ancient war country. There were also many former allies who were busy breaking away from Munata, trying to avoid the curse of heaven.

"If humans don't agree with me, Tianli and the other six earthly rulers will also call me a traitor god..."

"So which camp do you think I belong to? What is the purpose of everything I do?"

Famas shook his head and smiled bitterly. The three of them had now arrived at the end of the tidal flat. The fields and houses were all here. The river crossed the plain, and the vast water spread out from here into the distance.

Upon hearing Famas' dejected question, the traveler and Paimon stopped at the same time.

Yingmei turned around and stared at Famas with her amber eyes, but she didn't know how to comfort the young man in front of her.

"Those who hold wages for the people should not be allowed to freeze to death in the wind and snow; those who make a living for the people should not be allowed to die in silence."

"If good people don't end well...then evil people can be even worse?"

At the critical moment, Xiaopai's conclusive voice sounded.

Famas and the traveler turned their heads at the same time, looking at this emergency food that usually only showed cuteness with surprised eyes. However, they found that Paimon was holding a book he found from nowhere in his hand and was reading the words on it word for word.

.

"This is recorded in the Teyvat Tour Guide."

"Hey~ I am the best guide in Teyvat Continent!"

Seeing the surprised expression on the traveler's face, Paimeng proudly raised the ancient book in his hand and raised his head to show off to the other party.

Famas glanced meaningfully at the stupid little follower behind the traveler, but did not respond.

Dihuazhou often gets foggy, and when it's the thickest, it's hard to see your fingers.

But the three of them did not catch up with the thick fog. There were many beautiful shells scattered on the river beach. Following the looming rocks in the water, the travelers and others finally came to the land covered with snow-white salt flowers.

The fallen salt lamps, only half-broken walls and wildly growing shrubs prove that no one has set foot here for a long time. Many ancient city walls are surrounded by thick trees, and the dense branches and leaves almost cover the adventurer camp under the canopy.

Completely covered.

A huge circular ruin stands in the center of the tributary of the Bishui River. The circular seal emitting a faint blue light blocks the intersection, and the inscriptions on it are constantly rising and falling.

"Zhongli said that the salt in the earth was once the place where the people of the Salt God lived."

"So... valuable cultural relics should be everywhere, right?"

Paimon looked around happily, while the traveler skillfully opened his elemental vision and observed whether there were any radiant mechanical objects around him.

The huge ring-shaped seal in front of us obviously needs to be lifted by touching some kind of mechanism.曱

"Under the protection of Heulia, the Demon God of Salt, her people did enjoy a prosperous life for a period of time."

"But there are countless scavengers and treasure-stealing groups visiting this place, so there shouldn't be many valuable things left in the wild."

"But there may be tributes sent by the Salt God believers here. If you look carefully, there might be some fresh ones. Paimon can secretly take some to eat.

Famas stepped onto the high-rise foundations and mercilessly attacked Paimon's enthusiasm for finding the treasure.

"Ugh... you damn stinking guarantee guy!"

"How could I do such a thing!"

Paimon rolled his eyes at the young man angrily, and stamped his feet in the air with his small fists.曱

The land of Salt of the Earth is full of hexagonal columnar structures formed by the aggregation of rock elements. When viewed from the air, it will give people an illusion, as if these rock pillars were carefully arranged in advance to form a specific pattern.<

/p>

An angry Paimon crossed his arms and flew over the ruins of the circle. He found a moss-covered stone tablet directly in front of the seal. He then wandered to the ruins and read out the inscription recorded on it.

"Respectfully seal the traces in the salt, can't you open it if you don't have a chance?"

"What, who would leave a seal in a place like this!"

Paimon couldn't help but complain, and the traveler looked at Famas who had a disdainful expression on his face, and already guessed who was the person who placed the seal on the Salt of the Earth.

"It's not easy to have no destiny... What I'm best at is creating destiny out of thin air!"

Famas sneered, pulled out the raging spear out of thin air, and plunged it directly into the seal in the center of the ruins.曱
