Hutao uses me to judge my performance

"It's not too early. If you don't practice in advance, it will be too late on your birthday."

Jiang Bai naturally would not tell his true plan.

After your 17th birthday, you will be 18...

18 years old, hehe...

Jiang Bai took a sip in his heart.

"Are you planning to make a life-size statue of me?"

"Hey, isn't this bad?" Jiang Bai tilted his head.

"This small statue is okay, but the big one looks awkward, as if it were a memorial to myself..."

Looking at herself every day, she is still alive. If she puts a wreath, sprinkles some paper money, and hangs a white sail, she can simulate a funeral for herself.

A lightbulb suddenly lit up in Hu Tao's head.

"Speaking of which, your technology can definitely be used as our new business!"

"New business? Could it be possible..." Jiang Bai's mind was spinning rapidly.

"That's right, it's what you think!" Hu Tao excitedly tapped the palm of his hand. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this business was promising.

"There is an old custom in Liyue. When some old people get older, they will ask someone to draw a portrait for them. After they die, they will hang it at home for their relatives to pay tribute and remember."

“But now that video cameras are available, some wealthy people will choose to use video cameras as a more convenient way to record images.

"We are totally excited to create such statues for our customers. These statues are as if they are alive and can soothe the hurt hearts of those who have lost their loved ones!"

These statues are exquisite and delicate, and it looks like the person is still alive with him.

She could only imagine how warmly the business would be received!

Jiang Bai couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Master, you are really a genius!"

He only thought that if he lost his job, he could sell statues. Hutao directly expanded a new business for him.

There is no way that anyone who is unemployed or not is unemployed!

“It can also be customized according to the customer’s requirements, any size, any size! Single, double or even family portraits, it’s not a problem!

"You only need to pay a little extra when ordering our funeral service to enjoy this service!"

Walnut does not intend to set a high price for this business.

After all, not everyone in Liyue Port can afford to take pictures or hire painters to paint, but the sadness of the death of a loved one is the same.

This will be an affordable service.

"Hey, I'll print flyers when I get back and promote our business."

Hutao is gearing up and can't wait to have a big fight.

"Be prepared. When we get back to Liyue, there will definitely be many elderly people who will come to the Purity Hall in advance to order custom orders."

"Ah."

Jiang Bai moved his lumbar spine, which he had been sitting on for a long time, and with a wave of his hand, a bunch of statues on the ground turned into particles and dissipated.

He gave Hu Tao the best statue in his hand, "This one is the best."

The statue is heavy, with the weight of a rock.

Hutao looked at it.

The statue depicts her sitting on a big rock by the lake fishing, holding a fishing rod in one hand and holding her head in the other hand, waiting boredly for the fish to bite.

At the other end of the fish tank, he made a little ghost carrying a fish, trying to tie it to a fishhook.

The statues are particularly detailed, and even the tiny fishing rods are carved with exquisite patterns.

Even at the location of the lake, Jiang Bai made a groove and filled it with a little seawater.

In the water, the little fish held by the little ghost became more vivid.

"not bad."

Walnut likes this figurine very much.

Even the little ghost that emerged from her body loved it and walked around the statue.

She was going to put it on the bedside when she got back.

"You make one for me tomorrow, and I'll give it to him. Hey, he won't be able to guess which master carver made it."

Jiang Bai felt that the old man could do this kind of thing himself, and there was no need to rely on others, but he still agreed.

He was also quite curious as to which master sculptor the old man would guess.

After dinner, Jiang Bai took out his compass and calibrated the direction.

There was no reference at all on the sea, and there were too many stars in the sky. He had no research on the stars and could not rely on the stars to locate his position. He could only walk blindly in one direction in the sea.

After traveling for several days, the ship encountered an invisible boundary and was forced to stop.

"Hey, it seems we've arrived."

If it hadn't been touched by a ship, it would have been as if the border didn't exist.

Jiang Bai came to the front of the ship and reached out to touch the invisible boundary.

Suddenly, the boundary changed like water ripples to inform people of its existence.

Jiang Bai looked to the other side behind the border.

The other side is also an endless ocean, and all biological activities are trapped within the boundary.

It's just that the color of the ocean over there is darker, showing a kind of dark blue, and after a certain distance, both the ocean and the sky seem to be shrouded in gray and black, as if they are covered with a layer of fog.

Viewed from the air, there seems to be an invisible boundary line between the oceans, separating the two colors of sea water.

Hutao and Yidou also came over curiously and reached out to touch the border.

"Is this the border? It feels a little disappointing."

Before seeing the boundary, they fully imagined various scenarios.

For example, the border is a high wall, a power grid as dangerous as a thunderstorm off the coast of Inazuma, a fog that can cause ghosts to hit the wall...

But what finally appeared before them was an unpretentious wall of air.

It’s not that the air wall is bad, it’s just too plain and unpretentious.

"The elemental power here is so thin..."

Hu Tao felt that except for the active water element, the other elemental powers were extremely thin in this boundary.

She can also make fire, but it is difficult to summon enough fire elements to use some powerful moves.

"It should be because we are at the border." Jiang Bai thought for a while.

The elemental power must be converging towards the center.

The elemental power corresponding to each country controlled by a god will also be much more active in that country.

"Let me try how high this boundary is."

Jiang Bai touched the barrier and flew upwards, flying several kilometers in a row, but the barrier still existed.

But he didn't give up and continued to fly upwards for several kilometers.

At this height, the entire sea level presents an arc, and even the boundary feels inward.

Looking at the other side of the border from this height, there is still nothing visible.

Even the rays of sunlight are limited to the inside of the barrier, and the entire dark sea becomes dark after a certain distance.

The colors of the world seem to be limited only within the boundaries.

There is no sunlight and it is all gloomy. No wonder it is called the Dark Sea.

Chapter 569 Are you really not going to be hacked to death?

Jiang Bai did not continue to fly upward, but fell down.

"Shall we follow the border and see how big it is?"

Hutao rejected his idea, "It's better not to say goodbye. The ocean in Teyvat is huge, and we don't have a map. We don't know where we will be..."

Yidou nodded in agreement, "That's right, I've been away from Narukami Island for a long time, and I miss my mother-in-law."

There's nothing fancy about this border either.

You can't see anything on the other side, so staying here is a waste of time.

"Don't you want to go across the border and have a look outside?"

Jiang Bai heard that during the Demon God War, many demon gods fled to the dark sea.

"In no mood!"

Hutao and Yidou said in unison.

Although they were a little curious, they didn't want to go outside.

Teyvat is big enough for them to live and explore.

And once you go out, you might not be able to come back.

At that point, there is no turning back.

Curiosity is okay, but it should be in moderation.

"Ok."

Jiang Bai just asked casually and didn't really want to go out.

This barrier cannot be broken casually.Then let's rest here for a while, and I'll go to the bottom of the sea to have a look. "

Jiang Bai suddenly dived into the bottom of the sea and looked at the scene outside the border through the transparent border.

Compared to the well-developed fish schools inside the boundary, there was total silence outside the boundary, with not even a living fish to be seen.

Jiang Bai frowned, feeling that this was not normal.

Since there is also a sea area outside the border, how could this sea area be devoid of life?

Unless, there is a place outside the boundary that is not suitable for biological growth.

Jiang Bai integrated the currently known information.

First, there is no sunlight outside the borders.

Secondly, the border is suspected to be shrouded in a thick gray-black fog.

Finally, there is a suspected life-prohibited area outside the border.

Each of these is very consistent with the place he once stayed.

Could it be that he first came to the border of Teyvat?

However, that place might also be a mysterious and abnormal abyss.

After all, he has not reached the abyss yet and does not know what the abyss is like.

Hutao stood on the side of the ship, and Youyou emerged from her body, tentatively extending a claw towards the border.

Even if it is invisible, it is blocked within the boundary.

It hit the boundary with its head in a somewhat unbelieving way. It had always only been able to hit walnuts, and for the first time it felt what it felt like to hit its head.

"Woo~"

It floated back with its head drooped, and wrapped around Hu Tao's hand in great shock.

Hu Tao could only comfort the injured little guy, "Okay, okay, it's normal to have trouble getting through it, don't be sad."

Jiang Bai emerged from the water with a sudden movement, shook the water from his hair, and climbed onto the deck.

"Did you see any creatures appearing on the sea surface?"

Hu Tao raised his brows slightly, "No, could it be possible that you saw something alive under the sea?"
