I live a slow life in Genshin Impact

During the adventure, Ying also saw many crystal mines on the roadside.

This is not a very precious mineral.

There are many of them in the Wind Dragon Ruins in Mondstadt, and their quality is particularly high.

Even when forging ordinary weapons, many blacksmiths will add some crystals, mainly for embellishment.

Few people would use crystal ore to make decorations or as valuable things, but now Zhongli said... this is a piece of top-quality crystal ore?

The most important thing is that Kunjun seems to agree as well?

This made Ying curious.

"This stone comes from the vicinity of the volcano. I saw it while strolling around the market. The seller just thought it was a scrap and sold it to me."

Kunjun explained: "If it is just a general pure quality and high-quality texture, it is not enough to be called a treasure. The highest quality rare crystals may contain water and gold sand."

"Could it be that--"

Paimon was shocked.

"That's right. The crystal hidden under this layer of stone shell has enveloped a ball of water the moment it was formed. The water is hidden in the ground, like a full moon in the mountains, reflecting the sky and moving. It is quite rare!"

Kunjun talked freely.

He knew all about these things and could talk about them as if he had seen them with his own eyes.

Paimeng couldn't help but doubt: "Are you kidding us? After all, the stone hasn't been opened yet."

From the outside, it's just a black piece of stone. Why would there be so many details to pay attention to?

Paimon didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart.

"No, he's telling the truth."

Zhongli spoke up at the side: "Crystals are usually born in high temperature environments, and high temperature and flowing water are incompatible, so this piece of water-filled crystal is so precious. Moreover, this crystal contains water from a high mountain lake, which is even rarer."

"Eh?"

Paimon was stunned: "Since Zhongli said so, it should be true, right?"

She didn't know Kunjun very well, but she knew Zhongli very well.

If Mr. Zhongli said so, then this matter is very likely to be true!

"good eyesight!"

Kunjun's eyes lit up: "How do you know what it looks like under the stone shell?"

He originally thought that this was his unique ability, so he deliberately kept some key information in it, but he didn't expect Zhongli to reveal all the key information as soon as he opened his mouth!

This made Kunjun feel surprised and at the same time he felt a sense of resonance.

He felt that the calm and composed man in front of him was closer to him!

"It's just that I've seen a lot, so naturally I have some experience, so I'm showing off a little bit, please don't mind."

Zhongli nodded slightly, looking humble.

"No, no, no! Why would I mind? I think we get along very well, and I really want to make friends with you!"

Kunjun spoke quickly, and then looked at Lao Dai with sparkling eyes: "Lao Dai! Let's take Mr. Zhongli with us this time. He is an expert with a keen eye. You won't meet many such people in your life!"

"hiss--"

Old Dai took a deep breath.

He had seen Kunjun's abilities and knew that this man had an exceptional vision and was also very proud. Although he would appear confused and dazed from time to time, Kunjun was undoubtedly the most capable person Lao Dai had ever seen!

Since even he said this about Zhongli, Lao Dai naturally wanted to take him along, but he had to ask Zhongli's opinion first.

"Um...Mr. Zhongli, are you willing to join us?"

"of course can."

Zhongli smiled and nodded, looking at Kunjun who was still looking at him eagerly: "I also want to chat with this friend for a while."

"That's great, let's go to the mining area in the Chasm now!"

Old Dai set off with his group.

"This incident happened in the Layered Abyss..."

Paimeng muttered, "I heard weird things often happen there. Feng Luo, do you think this time's incident will be..."

“There must be a connection!”

Feng Luo narrowed his eyes: "Otherwise, how could several living people disappear for no reason?"

"what!"

Paimon shrank his head in fear: "Then, then we won't disappear together, right?"

“Who knows~”

Feng Luo laughed and said in a deliberately sinister tone: "It's like a monster suddenly appeared--"

"Ahhhh! Stop talking like that, it's so scary!"

Paimon covered his ears like a scared little rabbit.

"Hahahahaha!"

Feng Luo was amused and laughed out loud.

"Don't worry, no matter how scary the mushrooms are, we are still here, right? And Mr. Zhongli is here too!"

"Woo! Bad Feng Luo! You scared me on purpose!"

Paimeng was so angry that he swung his fists and beat Feng Luo madly!

"Oh my, my mistake!"

Feng Luo also laughed and played with Paimeng, and the originally tense atmosphere was suddenly filled with joy.

"Here we are."

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Lao Dai finally stopped. What appeared in front of everyone was a huge mining area.

There were piles of ores everywhere, some of which were covered with thick dust, and there were also some rails and mine carts specifically used for mining and transportation.

And deep, bottomless mines.

“This mining area is so huge…”

Paimon exclaimed, turning his little head and looking left and right.

"It's much bigger than I imagined. Did those people disappear here?"

Ying asked.

"Yes, there are four missing people in total. I took a few guys out to do some work six days ago, and when I came back, I heard that the four brothers who stayed behind were missing. I have already searched the entire mining area, but I can't find them."

Old Dai sighed: "I really have no other choice, so I asked you to help me."

"So there are a total of four people missing."

Zhongli concluded.

"Yes, there were originally 10 of us, but now 4 are missing. Only one person is still alive. He was lazy and took a nap. When he woke up, he found that everyone else was missing."

"Um...is that so?"

Feng Luo stroked his chin gently.

A lazy person would never let four people go missing, and these four people were all young and strong miners.

So first of all, eliminate this person as a suspect.

"Is it possible that he went to the mine to dig, so he didn't find it?"

Zhongli put forward a hypothesis.

"That shouldn't be the case. The first places we checked were these mines, and there were no signs of collapse..."

Old Dai shook his head and denied this speculation.

"Besides, it's impossible for the four of them to go underground all at once..."

Zhongli asked for some other details, but still got nothing.

"It looks like we'll have to search for some clues ourselves."

That was all he could say in the end.

"Okay, let's split up and collect some clues."

Paimon raised his little fist: "Let's all cheer together!"
