Chapter 86: Salt Cup, Salt Ruler, and the Punishment of Eating Rocks
The four of them entered the ruins of the Salt Demon along the entrance of the cave. As soon as they entered, they saw grains of salt everywhere and "statues" made of salt.
"This...this is a statue?"
"No, these are people. These people are probably the believers of the Demon God of Salt back then."
Zhongli told the cruel truth, and both Wan Yan and Clement were shocked.
"He...how did they become like this?"
"What is hidden deep in the ruins..."
Zhongli ignored them and continued walking forward.
"Go forward, more secrets are buried deep."
The four of them continued to go deeper into the ruins. Jun Luoyu observed the "statues" on the roadside and thought about something.
"This breath is power! No, in Teyvat, it should be called authority. The water in this world is a bit deep. If a kind of power represents a Herrscher, then Teyvat during the Demon God War, there are Herrschers everywhere... …
What’s more, like the old man, he possesses multiple powers. Although they are not as shameless as the powers that destroy the world, they can all fully control them. Gee, how terrifying would the Herrscher who could fully control the powers be..."
The more Jun Luoyu thought about it, the more frightened he became. Although he was sure that the upper limit of strength of the demon god in Tiyvat was not as good as the Herrscher of the Collapse World, the lower limit was much higher. With his current strength, he could not face any demon god in his heyday. With the power of parry, you can only wait for death!
"Huh...Thank you, old man, for beating Osel so weak..."
"Luo Yu, don't be in a daze, keep up!"
Zhongli's voice woke up Jun Luoyu, who was standing in a daze in front of a "statue". Jun Luoyu shook his head, dispelled the fancy thoughts in his mind, and started to chase after him.
"Coming, coming!"
As everyone continued to dig deeper, they found a stone lamp in a dilapidated hall of the ruins, which contained half a lamp of salt.
"There is the aura of the devil above this!"
Jun Luoyu stared at the salt lamp. He could sense that something similar to the core fragment of the Herrscher was embedded in the base of the stone lamp. It seemed to be part of the power condensed by the Demon God of Salt.
Clement took a look and showed a disgusted expression:
"Tsk, after searching for a long time, I unexpectedly found a salt shaker. The Demon God of Salt is really a poor Demon God."
Although Zhongli is usually very kind, he doesn’t want anyone to look down on his old friend, so he explains:
"As far as I know, it is not ordinary. There is only half a cup of salt in it, but there will always be half a cup of salt. No matter how you pour it, there will always be half a cup. In other words, it is endless."
Although Teyvat's salt-making technology is already very mature, there is still money to be made from selling salt. When Clement heard that this stone cup could produce endless amounts of salt, he immediately grabbed the salt cup and held it tightly in his arms.
"After struggling for so long, I finally found a treasure! Don't steal it from anyone, this thing belongs to me! Haha, as long as I keep pouring out the salt and selling it, I will make a fortune!"
Wan Yan glared at Clement with dissatisfaction and said:
"The Demon God of Salt used his powerful power to create a salt cup that can produce endless salt. I didn't expect that you only want to sell it for money!"
Zhongli stopped the quarrel between the two in time and looked at Clement:
"If Mr. Clement wants this salt cup, then according to the contract, the next item will belong to Ms. Wanyan."
"No problem, no problem! How could there be a more powerful baby than this!"
Clement hugged the salt lamp with joy, and his eyes seemed to have turned into the shape of Mora.
"Then, let's move on."
Everyone set off again, with Zhongli leading the way. Jun Luoyu unlocked the mechanism and soon came to the next hall. There was a measuring ruler enshrined on the stone platform. Jun Luoyu was even more greedy. He could feel the ruler part of the measuring ruler.
It is wrapped in a layer of power that has become a solid entity. If he can swallow it up, he will become stronger no matter what!
But Jun Luoyu still has quality. He is not willing to snatch the relics of Zhongli's old friend in front of Zhongli. Moreover, he is not immoral enough to devour the relics of such a kind demon.
"Separating part of his own power to condense the salt cup and salt ruler, it's no wonder that this demon who didn't want to fight would later become so weak that he couldn't even withstand ordinary people's weapons.
Let me just say, even if she didn't intend to resist, how could she kill a powerful demon with just an ordinary person's attack? It turned out that she was already extremely weak before that. She is such a kind and tragically good person..."<
/p>
Jun Luoyu sighed secretly. Seeing his appearance, Zhongli knew that Jun Luoyu might have guessed something. He stretched out his hand and touched Jun Luoyu's head without saying a word.
"It's just a ruler, it doesn't look like something valuable."
Clement held the salt cup and instinctively denied the value of the salt ruler. He did not hope that the ruler in front of him had any powerful abilities, but Zhongli's words ruthlessly destroyed the hope in his heart:
"This measuring stick also has the power of the Demon God of Salt. As long as it is inserted into the ground, the ground will be covered with salt like rising water. The deeper it is inserted, the more salt grains will be. This symbolizes
The harvest of salt. Ms. Wanyan, according to the contract, it is yours."
"What! Doesn't this mean that this thing is more powerful than a salt lamp! No, I don't agree! I paid for the money and organized this expedition. Why should I suffer!"
Clement yelled a little crazily. Wanyan took a step back in fear when he saw his appearance, but Jun Luoyu stepped forward and took the salt ruler and handed it to Wanyan, smiling kindly: p>
"Mr. Clement, are you trying to break the contract?"
"So what if it's destroyed! I can almost understand the mechanisms in this ruins! You are no longer useful!"
Clement took out a sacrificial knife made by the fool, and thought of killing the donkey.
Jun Luoyu smiled even happier, he finally had a reason to take action!
"Old man, take Ms. Wanyan one step ahead. Leave the rock-eating punishment to me for breaking the contract. By the way, he has now taken out a deadly weapon. Am I acting in self-defense now?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Zhongli nodded expressionlessly, turned around and left with Wanyan.
"According to the law of Liyue, those who violate the contract should be punished by eating rocks. Moreover, he is now armed with a sharp knife and wants to seek wealth and death. According to the law of Liyue, he must serve a minimum of ten years of corvee and the maximum penalty is death." p>
Wanyan looked back worriedly and asked:
"Mr. Zhongli, that child looks only fourteen or fifteen years old. Are you so confident that he can face that vicious crowd of fools alone?"
Zhongli kept walking forward with his hands behind his back and said without looking back:
"Don't worry. Since I chose to leave this matter to that child, it means that he has the ability to handle it. Let's continue to explore forward."
In the main hall, Jun Luoyu waved his hand and condensed a wall of air to seal the entire hall to prevent the sound from spreading out. Lightning flashes continued to appear around him, and the smile on his face became brighter.
"So, Mr. Clement, are you ready to accept the punishment of eating rocks?"
"Damn brat! I am the elite among fools! Even if you have the Eye of God, you are no match for me! Kill you first, then catch up and kill Zhongli and that annoying woman. Everything here will belong to me! By then, I will kill you.
Just say that you died in the ruins, and no one will doubt it!"
Clement held the sacrificial knife and his tone was full of madness.
"Yes, even if you die here, no one will know..."
Jun Luoyu held his left hand in front of Clement, thunder and lightning flashed on his right hand, and he walked over step by step.
"Move...I can't move...Damn it, what did you do!"
Clement's body was tightly imprisoned by the air, unable to move at all. Looking at Jun Luoyu's figure walking step by step, the original madness disappeared, replaced by fear that kept emerging:
"No, don't come over! I, I will give you money, I will give you all the money, and I will give you the salt cup! Let me go, I will leave now! Let me go!"
"If begging for mercy is useful, why do you need the police? Mr. Clement, please be careful in your next life. Don't violate the contract in Liyue, and don't just think about killing people and silencing them. Then, good night~"
Jun Luoyu tightened his left hand, and Clement's body was crushed by the air, spreading all over the ground.
What followed was a one-stop service of skilled decomposition, scattering and burial. No one who came to investigate could tell that anyone had died here.
"Hey, isn't it good to abide by the contract honestly? Even if you violate the contract, don't show such obvious murderous intention. I didn't want to kill him. What's wrong with these fools? They are all like the boss and the second.
The same goes for ladies, skirmishers, and even this traitor who doesn’t know whose subordinate he is."
What Jun Luoyu didn't realize was that his current way of thinking was no longer what an ordinary person should think. Shesha's consciousness still affected him to a greater or lesser extent. Although it didn't turn him into a madman, now
, Jun Luoyu, who has died twice, no longer has any respect for life.
Although he is not a good person to begin with.
As usual, he inserted three cigarettes on the ground to use as incense. Jun Luoyu was not a staff member of the Hall of Rebirth and would not be accommodating, so he did not go through the process of sending people to death. After burying Clement, he picked up the salt cup and chased Zhongli away.
direction.
"Old man, it's done."
Wan Yan looked at Jun Luoyu chasing after him alone, and couldn't help but ask:
"Little brother, what did you... do to him? He didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
Jun Luoyu showed an innocent and cute smile, and said with a smile in his slightly childish voice:
"No, I had a cordial and friendly exchange with that uncle. He realized his mistake and gave me the salt cup to express his regret. Now he has gone back and will not cause trouble again."
Jun Luoyu's current appearance was very deceptive. Wanyan breathed a sigh of relief looking at Jun Luoyu's cute appearance:
"Huh, it seems that person is pretty easy to talk to."
Wanyan thinks Jun Luoyu is telling the truth. What bad intentions can a child have?
