Genshin Impact: Ningguang is still a pitiful little thing, I invested in her.

Yu Jin gently fanned herself with a palm leaf fan and replied unsurprised, "That's indeed the case around here. The water is cut off for a few days every now and then."

Yu Jin paused, looked at Fang Xun, and continued, "Little brother, if you want water tonight, you can come find me."

"Oh, what I mean is, if you want to take a shower tonight, you can come to my hotel."

"My hotel has a water tank on the roof, which stores enough water to last through the next few days without water."

The water supply is interrupted periodically, which causes great inconvenience to daily life.

Therefore, Yu Jin built a pool on the roof of the hotel specifically to deal with water outages.

When she sold the house to Fang Xun, she forgot to mention the water outage.

Yu Jin waved the palm-leaf fan in her hand, then said softly, "Because of the water outage these past few days, we need to conserve water."

"Try not to be alone... I mean, save water, try not to shower, just wipe yourself down."

"Little brother, what's with that expression? You seem a bit disappointed? What's wrong?"

She is truly the mother of the Liyue King of Chariots.

They can start driving the car while chatting and laughing.

But right now, it's not a water conservation issue at all.

Because it's not just about taking a bath, but also about doing laundry and cooking.

There are too many adorable little ones at home, and even if Yu Jin has stored water here, it's not enough.

In response, Fang Xun said, "Sister Yujin, let's talk about taking a bath later."

"I'd like to ask what caused the water outage?"

Yu Jin looked thoughtful: "I've heard Qian Yanjun talk about the reason for the water outage before. Let me think about it."

"If I remember correctly, it seems that there were monsters interfering with the reservoir, which is why the water supply was cut off."

"If we can get rid of the monsters, the water shortage problem will be solved."

Upon hearing this explanation, Fang Xun understood.

He chatted briefly with Yu Jin, and then headed to the Moon Sea Pavilion.

Gan Yu should be getting ready to leave work at this time. He came to pick her up and take her home, and also to ask what was going on.

Upon seeing Fang Xun's arrival, Gan Yu spoke first, saying, "Mr. Fang Xun, please have dinner with everyone first. You don't need to wait for me tonight."

"I might have to work overtime and get home a little late."

"There are water outages in several parts of Liyue. I need to go to the reservoir to check on the situation."

Upon hearing Gan Yu's words, Fang Xun's heart stirred.

Isn't this a coincidence?

He originally wanted to ask Gan Yu about the water outage.

Now the two share the same goal.

“Miss Gan Yu, let me accompany you to solve the water outage problem. It'll be good to have someone to look after you on the way.”

Upon hearing this, Gan Yu nodded: "Okay, then I'll trouble Mr. Fang Xun to keep me company while I work overtime."

As she spoke, Gan Yu reached out her hand to Fang Xun.

A blush crept onto her face, and the tuft of hair on her head curled shyly due to her fluctuating emotions.

"I might walk quite fast, so to avoid getting separated, please, Mr. Fang Xun, hold my hand tightly."

Seeing Gan Yu's shy appearance, Fang Xun couldn't help but laugh, and then held Gan Yu's hand tightly.

Gan Yu's skin is delicate and smooth, and feels cool to the touch.

"Then let's set off."

...

Soon, Fang Xun accompanied Gan Yu to investigate water source issues and arrived at the reservoir.

The vast majority of Liyue's residents use this reservoir for their drinking water, a practice that has been around for many years.

Fang Xun spotted a group of ice slimes at a glance.

They froze the water in the reservoir, causing a large area of ​​Liyue to lose water.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xun noticed that the group of ice slimes seemed to be surrounding a person in the center.

He was a young man wearing sunglasses and carrying a large backpack.

If I'm not mistaken, that young man should be Liben, the rare goods merchant from twenty years ago.

...

The book's recent sales have been quite poor, so I'm asking for some free gifts. Thank you everyone!

Nothing much to do tomorrow, so I expect to post four updates.

A new event is out, Liben is forever a god!

Finally, everyone, get some rest early, goodnight!

Chapter 142 A casual gift resulted in three entanglements.

Upon discovering a group of ice slimes causing trouble, Gan Yu immediately pulled the bowstring in her hand.

Blue light continuously gathered on the bow and arrow, forming the Frosty Arrow.

The next second, Gan Yu launched the Frost Arrow.

The bow and arrow in her hand transformed into a dazzling blue light, its whistling sound seemingly tearing through the air.

These are bows and arrows made by immortals.

Even the tough-skinned ancient rock dragon lizard couldn't withstand this arrow, so its power was naturally extraordinary.

Frost Arrows shot towards the ice slimes, their splash damage shattering the soil and kicking up clouds of dust.

When the dust settled, the ice slimes stood there unharmed.

Fang Xun immediately realized that these monsters were immune to attacks of the same attribute.

Gan Yu's Frost Arrow is an ice-attribute attack, so it has no effect on ice slimes.

Once she came to her senses, Gan Yu stopped charging up her arrows and instead launched simple, normal attacks without any elemental power.

Although each arrow could eliminate an ice slime, the sheer number of ice slimes was overwhelming, and they were scattered throughout the area.

If Gan Yu were to rely solely on drawing a bow and shooting arrows like this, it would likely consume a great deal of time and energy.

In response, Fang Xun said, "Miss Gan Yu, leave these slimes to me."

As he spoke, Fang Xun rushed towards the group of ice slimes.

He first used Maple Leaf's 'Chihaya Flutter' to gather the scattered ice slimes together, thereby improving work efficiency.

Immediately afterwards, dazzling golden light rapidly condensed in Fang Xun's hand.

In the blink of an eye, the weapon 'Disaster Relief' had already appeared in Fang Xun's hands.

After this period of adjustment, Fang Xun has become increasingly adept at using the Disaster Relief technique.

Although they haven't reached the level of immortals, they are more than capable of dealing with these demons.

The next second, the spear in Fang Xun's hand burst into flames with a whoosh, the flames engulfing the entire spear shaft.

From a distance, even the shape of the Disaster Relief Formation seemed to have changed.

It's like a fire dragon rising up!

The simplest and most direct way to deal with these ice slimes is to use fire-attribute skills.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xun waved the Calamity-Slaying Palm in his hand towards the group of ice slimes.

Have a good meal and drink your fill, and may you have a safe journey!

That's Walnut's Elemental Burst skill, Answer's Secret Magic.

One of the three great nuclear explosion techniques of Teyvat, more than enough to deal with these ice slimes.

So that

Before the burning flames even touched the ice slimes, the terrifying heat had already melted them.

Gan Yu, standing beside him, quietly observed Fang Xun's profile, her sparkling eyes resembling those of a devoted fan.

Mr. Fang Xun is truly amazing to be able to eliminate so many ice slimes in an instant.

Liben, crouching on the ground, looked weak and helpless.

After seeing Fang Xun destroy the ice slime, Liben finally showed a relieved expression.

Liben's voice was full of gratitude: "Thank you, two heroes, for saving me."

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Liben, and I am a businessman."

"I was thirsty on my way to Mondstadt and thought I'd stop here to get some water, but I ended up running into a bunch of slimes."

"If it weren't for your help, I would be in big trouble today."

Even now, recalling that scene, Liben still feels a chill run down his spine.

Slimes are just too terrifying.

He's just a merchant who only knows how to sell goods; he has no idea how to deal with these monsters.

Liben paused for a moment, then continued, "The two of you have helped me, and I will never forget this kindness."

"I happen to have some things here that I can give you as a token of my gratitude. Please don't refuse."

As they were talking, Liben took out an exquisite gift box from his backpack and handed it to Fang Xun.

Fang Xun glanced down at the gift box and found it contained a variety of strange and unusual items.

It's probably a specialty product brought from countries like Sumeru or Fontainebleau.

Fang Xun wasn't interested in those things, and neither was Gan Yu.
