What bad intentions could the original dragon have?

"But now is not the time to look at the amber, right?" Zhong Ling asked doubtfully.

"This..." Kunjun seemed a little conflicted.

At the same time, several people who were looking for clues around also gathered over.

"Hey? Xiao Kun, are you looking at the stone?" Paimon floated over and found the amber in the crack. "Wow! Amazing! This amber is so bright!"

Although it has not been mined yet and the true appearance of this amber cannot be fully seen, just from the tiny exposed part it can be seen that its quality is excellent.

"This amber... well, it's a rare treasure that is rarely seen in recent years." Zhongli took a look and nodded. "The cracks in the ground did not damage it at all, but instead peeled off the outer shell, exposing the inside directly."

"There are tiny flocs in the amber, which contain relatively strong rock elements." Zhongli stretched out his hand, and the golden rock elemental power spread in his hand.

The part of the ground with the amber broke directly, and under Zhongli's control, the amber floated up together with a part of the rock. Then Zhongli clenched his fist, and the elemental power of rock covered the cracks in the ground and filled it completely.

"Very impressive, you are worthy of being Mr. Zhongli." Kunjun exclaimed in amazement as he watched Zhongli's recent operations.

"Some small tricks to get something for free, not worth mentioning." Zhongli waved his hand and continued to control the elemental power of rock, causing the rock part of the amber to slowly peel off.

Finally, a perfect piece of amber appeared before their eyes.

"Hey? Look, traveler! Is there any mark of rock element in the amber?" Paimon shouted in shock, pointing at the amber.

Just as Zhongli said, the flocs in the amber actually formed a faint symbol of rock elements, which means that this amber contains a relatively strong rock element.

This is a relatively rare situation.

The content of rock elements in ordinary amber is very small, but the content of this piece exceeds that of ordinary amber by more than ten times.

It can be called a treasure.

As for the [Pure Amber] that Zhong Ling took out when she was making the sword blank for Ying that day, it was a divine product that was rarely seen in a thousand years.

One of them was forged into a divine sword by [Emperor Rock King], which witnessed [Emperor Rock King's] grand oath.

"Really?" Ying nodded. "But why is Xiaokun looking at this stone?"

"Well..." Kunjun scratched the back of his head and then made a decision. "I'll tell you, but you can't tell anyone else."

"Is this the secret of the Kunjun brothers? If so, we can choose not to ask." Zhongli waved his hand.

"It's not a very important matter, the main thing is that this is... a bit weird." Kunjun said embarrassedly.

"Weird?!" Paimon showed a frightened expression, but excitement and fear coexisted in his eyes.

"Well... if that's the case." Zhongli said after a little thought. "Let's make a 'contract'. Brother Kunjun will tell us the secret, and we can't tell anyone else except the four of us."

"Ah, this? Isn't it too formal?" If you make a 'contract', you must abide by it, otherwise you will be punished by 'eating rocks'.

"It doesn't matter. The 'contract' is supposed to be obeyed." Zhongli said seriously.

Soon, they made a 'contract' not to be disclosed to others.

And Kunjun is about to reveal his secret.

"It's like this." Kunjun picked up the amber. "I have a power that allows me to see the memory of the ore as long as I touch it and calm my mind."

"See..." Paimon's eyes widened.

"Ore..." Ying was also quite shocked.

"Memory?" Zhong Ling took over the rest of the conversation naturally.

"Did you see the memory of the ore? This ability is really rare." Zhongli nodded and said.

"I don't know if there are other people who have this ability. Anyway, it's quite weird...so I hope everyone keeps it secret."

"Well, this is the content of the 'contract' and we must abide by it."

"So, what did Brother Kun see in the amber?" Zhong Ling asked curiously. "Is it a clue?"

"..." Kunjun nodded. "I saw in Shipu's memory that four workers with mining tools followed a little girl with blue hair and headed north."

"!" As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of everyone except Kunjun changed.

"Is it a little girl with blue hair, wearing glasses and a blue jacket?" Zhong Ling asked quickly.

"Hmm? Mr. Zhong Ling has seen her?" Kun Jun was stunned for a moment before nodding his head. "Just as Mr. Zhong Ling described, this is the little girl."

"Hmm? Miners..." Zhong Ling's face showed a blank expression. "No way? Could it be that she wants to bring a few ordinary people to dig up the seal of Brother Ruo Tuo?"

"Are you relying on a few ordinary people to break the seal I set? Am I, a Naga, so shameless?"

"What's wrong? Does Mr. Zhong Ling have any clues?" Kunjun asked when he saw Zhong Ling seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Hmm..." Zhong Ling nodded slightly. "How about this, let's talk to Old Dai first, and then head north."

"They have been gone for six days, which means they have gone a long way. It will take some time to catch up with them. Arrange for Lao Dai and his men to head north as well, and then ask around among the people along the way."

"Oh, Mr. Zhong Ling has thought it through." Kunjun nodded in understanding. "Then let's go find Old Dai now."

Kunjun, Ying and Paimeng went to find Lao Dai to explain the situation, while Zhongli came to Zhong Ling's side.

"What do you think the blue-haired little girl's intention was in taking away the four miners?" Zhongli asked Zhong Ling.

Among them, only Zhong Ling had seen the little girl with blue hair, so asking Zhong Ling might give some clues.

"This..." Zhong Ling felt that her guess was incredible.

No matter who that little girl is, how could she have come up with the idea of ​​using ordinary people to dig the seal?

"..." Zhong Li nodded seriously after listening to Zhong Ling's analysis. "From a universal point of view...it is indeed incredible."

"However, if it is 'non-universal rationality', this is indeed possible."

"Since that little girl was able to deceive your perception, perhaps there is a way to deceive the seal."

"In short, once we reach the 'Fulong Tree', the truth will be revealed."

C.71 Dragon Stone

"Xiao Kun's abilities are truly amazing." Along the way, with the help of Kunjun's special abilities, they were able to find quite a few clues.

Although from the very beginning, after learning that it was the little girl with blue hair who took the miners away, Zhong Ling had already determined their final destination.

However, let's look for clues along the way.

After all, Zhong Ling believed that the seal she had reinforced could not be broken by ordinary people. Compared to the blue-haired little girl taking four ordinary people to dig the seal of the 'Fulong Tree', Zhong Ling was more inclined to take the miners to do other things.

Besides that, the most important point is...

The seal was reinforced by Zhong Ling, so Zhong Ling could naturally feel something.

And up to now, she hasn't felt any movement in the seal.

This means that the little blue-haired girl either took the miners away to some other place.

Either the little blue-haired girl really has the ability to deceive Zhong Ling's perception and even the seal.

However, since Zhongli said not to use power beyond that of the 'holder of the Eye of God', let's investigate this matter at a human level.

Zhong Ling is not worried at all, after all...

As everyone knows, there are three dragons in Liyue. Today, a thousand years later, the three dragons of Liyue have gathered together.

"Haha." Kunjun smiled modestly. To him, this innate ability was not the result of hard work, so it was not something worth showing off.

If it was about mineral identification, Kun Junke would not be so humble and he would accept the compliment without hesitation.

"Come to think of it, Brother Kun, you seemed to be looking for something along the way." Although they were also looking for clues along the way.

But Kunjun was more careful than any of them. He was conducting a carpet search, as if he was looking for something... He looked like he had lost his key and would not leave any corner unsearched.

"This?" Kunjun showed a confused expression. "Actually, all along the way, I was looking for a stone called 'Dragon-Suppressing Stone'."

"What is 'Dragon Stone'?" Paimon asked, tilting his head. "I don't think I've ever heard of this name."

"It's normal that you haven't heard of it. 'Dragon Suppression Stone' is an extremely rare 'ore'. Generally speaking, good forging materials are produced under high temperature or high pressure environment." Zhong Ling rubbed Paimeng's head. "But 'Dragon Suppression Stone' is a crystal produced by elemental reaction."

"Eh?! Can the crystals produced by elemental reactions be solid?!" If it is elemental crystals, Paimon has certainly seen them. Elemental crystals appear when the elemental force of rock reacts with other elemental forces.

However, this crystallization will dissipate in a short time.

"How should I put it... 'Dragon Suppression Stone' is the crystallization of elements that react when super-high-intensity elemental forces collide." Zhong Ling thought for a moment and gave an example. "For example, if a rock-attributed demon and a water-attributed demon fight, a lot of 'Dragon Suppression Stone' will fall to the ground."

"Oh, by the way, it's possible to find the 'Dragon Suppression Stone' near the 'Guyun Pavilion'."

Thinking about it carefully, when he was above the 'Rock Abyss' and in the 'River in the Sky', and was hit down by hundreds of lava swords from [Lord Ryota], it seemed that a lot of 'Dragon Suppressing Stones' fell to the ground.

Afterwards, [Emperor Rock] and [Lord Ruota] fought all the way from the 'Rock Abyss' to the 'South Gate of Heaven', leaving behind some 'Dragon-Suppressing Stones' along the way.

However, even if the "Dragon Suppressing Stone" appears in the war, it will be shattered by the aftermath of the war, so the number of "Dragon Suppressing Stone" is very scarce.

The reason why "Guoyun Pavilion" was able to find the "Dragon Suppressing Stone" was very simple. After all, not long ago, [Cangming Yuanjun] transformed into a dust dragon and suppressed the [Demon God of Whirlpool]. Perhaps they could find a "Dragon Suppressing Stone" with water attributes.

"Great! Mr. Zhong Ling's words reminded me." Kunjun suddenly became happy. "That day I did hear someone at the market say that the 'Dragon Suppression Stone' was found near the 'Guyun Pavilion'."

"But what is Brother Kun looking for the 'Dragon-Suppressing Stone' for?"

"I don't know." Kunjun shook his head. "I've been in a daze for the past few days. I can't remember anything. I also easily forget what others said to me. It was only when I heard someone mention the 'Dragon Suppression Stone' by chance that I had the idea that 'if I can find the 'Dragon Suppression Stone', maybe I can solve the problem.'"

"That's actually the case!" Paimon looked at Kunjun. "It's okay, little Kun, we will definitely find the 'Dragon Suppression Stone'."

"Yeah." Kunjun nodded vigorously.

"Look at that...isn't it a backpack used by miners? It looks very similar to the ones in the mining area." Ying suddenly saw a backpack in the corner of a staircase in "Lingju Pass".

Although the backpack was damaged and even flattened, it was obviously something that had been in use recently.

"Indeed...it seems that the workers we are looking for have indeed reached Lingju Pass." Zhongli nodded.

"Let's see if there are any good stones nearby." Paimon put his little hands over his eyes and looked around.

"No need, let me do it this time."

"Eh?" As soon as Zhong Ling finished speaking, Zhongli and Kunjun looked at her at the same time.

Zhongli roughly thought of what Zhong Ling was going to do, but since Kunjun could see the memory of the ore, then Zhong Ling could also...

Well, it seems that it does not exceed the scope of "human".

The reason why Kunjun was so surprised was that he didn't know why Zhong Ling said that.

"Actually, I have abilities similar to Brother Kun." Zhong Ling said with a chuckle.

"What? Mr. Zhong Ling can also see the memory of the stone?" Kunjun said happily.

"Oh, that's not the case." Zhong Ling shook her head. "Just as Brother Kun can see the memory of stone, I can see the memory of water."

Zhong Ling said this and walked to the lakeside of Lingju Pass.

The 'Lingju Pass' which was partially submerged in water was very useful to Zhong Ling.

Putting his hand into the water, Zhong Ling began to recall what the water had recorded during this period of time.

Soon, she found it.

A little girl with blue hair climbed up the ladder using her hands and feet.

The four miners she brought with her climbed with bodies that were stiffer than Qiqi's.

Then she saw four miners jumping and trying to climb the stairs, and then one of them fell badly...that was the worker who fell down.

Apparently, his backpack was damaged at this time.

The miner didn't seem to express any opinion, but stood up again and continued to climb the stairs.

"It's absolutely amazing..."

C.72 Immortal Forbidden Zone

To be honest, until just now, Zhongli didn't recognize Kunjun's true identity.

Although the "Dragon-Suppressing Stone" is indeed rare, it has even become extinct in Liyue hundreds of years ago.

But a few months ago, when [Cangming Yuanjun] used the sword mountain to suppress the eight dragons under the abyss, the vast rock elemental force gathered by the sword mountain collided with the water elemental force of the eight dragons, and finally formed a lot of water-based 'Dragon-Suppressing Stones'.

These 'Dragon Suppressing Stones' were also discovered recently, so Zhongli did not find them strange.

But when Zhong Ling just said, "Just as Brother Kun can see the memory of stone, I can see the memory of water.", Zhong Li suddenly reacted.

'Brother Kun' is a very common name, but 'Brother Kun' is different.

Since Zhong Ling calls Kunjun 'Brother Kun', there is only one possibility... Kunjun is really her brother.
