Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 317 Pre-War Preparations

Shao Yun sat leisurely on the boat, feeling particularly relaxed and happy as the waves rose and fell.

On the other side, Pinghai was rowing desperately, hoping to reach the destination as soon as possible.

Not long after, they finally arrived at Guyun Pavilion.

It was a beautiful day with bright sunshine and sparkling sea. It was hard to imagine that Liyue Harbor was about to face a crisis similar to the last Osel incident.

Pinghai docked the boat next to the island that was once known as "Guoyun Pavilion F4".

Most of the islands in Guyun Pavilion are connected by shallows. Although the small island where Keqing is located is not connected by shallows, Shao Yun can also reach the shore by swimming.

King John was envious.

Shao Yun jumped off the boat and stepped firmly on the beach. Then he looked back at Ping Hai and warned him seriously: "Stay here and wait for me to come back. If you dare to leave me alone and escape on the boat..."

Pinghai interrupted Shao Yun before he finished speaking and nodded repeatedly to show his agreement.

"I wouldn't dare to do that even if I had a hundred guts!"

Shao Yun smiled and patted Pinghai's cheek, as if comforting a frightened animal.

“I admire people who understand what people are saying.”

Then he turned and walked towards the depths of Guyun Pavilion, leaving Pinghai alone there, nervously watching his departing back.

Shao Yun finally found the defensive position carefully arranged by Keqing.

To be precise, this place is located on an island next to Guyun Pavilion F4, and has now been transformed into an important stronghold similar to a rear base.

Several Qianyan Army soldiers were busy checking several scaled-down return machines, which looked like sophisticated crossbows.

Keqing herself was having a serious conversation with several Thousand Rock Army officers.

When Shao Yun saw Keqing, he immediately took out the envelope Ningguang had given him and walked up to her and said, "Ms. Keqing, Miss Ningguang asked me to deliver a letter to you."

When Keqing heard this, she was stunned for a moment. She obviously did not expect such a situation to happen.

She turned around, her eyes fell on Shao Yun and the letter in his hand, then she slowly walked over, took the letter and expressed her gratitude.

"Oh? Ah, thank you for delivering it personally, Mr. Shao Yun."

Keqing took the letter from Shao Yun, opened the envelope, and quickly read the contents of the letter.

Then, she frowned slightly and said with difficulty: "I see..."

Shao Yun noticed the change in Keqing's expression and couldn't help but ask, "Is the Ba Che in Ningguang's mouth about to appear?"

Keqing was stunned when she heard Shao Yun's words. She originally thought that Shao Yun had read the contents of the letter, but when she saw that the sealing wax on the envelope was still intact and Shao Yun said that he learned it from Ningguang, she was relieved.

"Ah? That's right, Lady Ningguang said in the letter. Captain Beidou of the Southern Cross Fleet confirmed this yesterday by observing the changes in ocean currents. It will probably happen in the next one or two days." Keqing replied.

Shao Yun stared at the figure on the island in the distance, pointed in that direction, and asked, "Do you think the defense line you set up can withstand Ba Che's attack?"

After Keqing put away Ningguang's letter, she showed a confident look on her face and said firmly: "Everyone is confident that we can stop Ba Che. With these replica immortals' return machines, there shouldn't be any big problems."

Shao Yun looked at the Guizhong machine that was undergoing maintenance next to him and nodded, indicating that he agreed with Keqing's mentality.

But he also said with emotion: "Confidence is a good thing, but confidence cannot solve all problems."

After saying that, Shao Yun made a suggestion to Keqing.

"Here's a piece of advice for you. Have everyone tie something around their bodies that can keep them afloat. It's best to have a life buoy or something like that. It may be a little troublesome, but saving your life is more important."

"Or, you can also set up some Liyue formation to prevent flooding or something like that."

Shao Yun secretly swore in his heart that he would never use Ying to exchange for Shen He Hong Wen in order to solve the problem of Ba Che's attack on Liyue Harbor.

He has fulfilled his obligation and informed Keqing, and what happens next has nothing to do with him.

When Keqing heard this suggestion, her eyes widened in surprise and she said gratefully, "Indeed, I have never thought about this. Thank you for your reminder. I will start preparing immediately and hope that everything will be in time."

Shao Yun couldn't help but be stunned, thinking, haven't you ever thought about how to deal with failure?

Keqing, do you firmly believe that you can repel the demon with just a dozen crossbows, or do you expect the immortals of Liyue to help you? Or do you have full confidence in the Qun Yu Pavilion?

But considering your personality, perhaps the first and third possibilities are more in line with your ideas...

Thinking of this, Shao Yun felt his scalp tingling. He hurriedly left after leaving a blessing.

"Good luck! Don't die."

After saying that, Shao Yun left without looking back.

He had fulfilled his responsibility to remind her, but he was not sure whether he would be in time.

……

After returning to Liyue Harbor, Shao Yun was about to look for Ying and Paimon when he suddenly heard a cute call.

"Everyone, get out of here quickly. It's very dangerous."

Shao Yun looked in the direction of the voice and saw Qiqi standing next to the stone lion next to Hanfeng Ironware, reminding the people around him with a serious look on his face.

Shao Yun was stunned for a moment, looking at the purple-haired child in front of him, and said to himself: "Isn't this Qiqi?"

Qiqi also noticed Shao Yun, waved, and continued to shout in a silly way: "Hello, Mr. Shao Yun, please leave here quickly, it's very dangerous."

"The things in the sea are very scary. Qiqi wanted everyone to leave, but no one listened to Qiqi."

Shao Yun walked up to Qiqi, squatted down and asked curiously: "Qiqi, who asked you to evacuate the crowd?"

Qiqi tilted her head, thought hard for a while, and replied, "It was Lady Ningguang. She said there were bad things in the sea, so Qiqi came to evacuate the crowd."

When Shao Yun heard that it was Ningguang's instruction, he was speechless and muttered softly, "What's wrong with her? She asked a kid like you to evacuate the crowd. Really."

After saying that, Shao Yun stood up and, in a rare move, chose to help her enthusiastically. He said, "Okay, I'll help you. Cover your ears."

Qiqi did as she was told and covered her ears tightly.

Then, Shao Yun cleared his throat, quickly pulled out the Scofield revolver from his waist, fired two shots into the sky, and shouted loudly: "If you don't want to die, stay away from the beach!"

When gunshots rang out, people at the port cast puzzled glances at Shao Yun, but they just looked at each other and no one moved.

Shao Yun felt puzzled, so he shouted again: "You all want to die, right? Good!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he fired another shot into the air and then pointed the gun randomly at the crowd in the port.

This time, it finally worked. The people at the port were so frightened that they dropped their belongings and work and ran away desperately.

In less than five minutes, everyone disappeared without a trace.

Shao Yun looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction, then turned to look at several Qianyan Army recruits not far away who were holding white tasseled spears and looking at him tremblingly.

Shao Yungang waved his hand, intending to call these Qianyan soldiers over and let them take over Qiqi's mission here.

Unexpectedly, these Qianyan soldiers ran away in a flash.

I guess he went to call for reinforcements...

Shao Yun shrugged helplessly, squatted down, looked at Qiqi beside him and said, "Forget it, although the process is a bit scary, the people in the port area have been evacuated now, you can go."

Qiqi released her hands from covering her ears, shook her head slowly, and answered dully, "No, Qiqi wants to stay here to prevent anyone else from coming to the beach."

Shao Yun couldn't help but feel speechless and thought that he needed to find Ningguang to talk about Qiqi.

"Okay, then I'll go talk to Ningguang about the situation and ask her to send the Thousand Rocks Army over. It's ridiculous to ask a child like you to evacuate the crowd here!"

……

Shao Yun returned to the construction site of the Qun Yu Pavilion.

At this time, a Qianyan Army captain was respectfully reporting to Ningguang about the riots caused by Shao Yun in the port area.

At this moment, the Qianyan Army captain caught a glimpse of Shao Yun from the corner of his eye. He was startled for a moment, and then hurriedly left. He didn't care whether he had finished explaining the matter or not...

Shao Yun quickly walked up to Ningguang and told her seriously that the letter had been successfully delivered to Keqing.

"The letter has been delivered to Keqing."

After hearing the news, Ningguang folded her arms and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

"Oh, thank you for your help."

Afterwards, Shao Yun turned the topic to the issue of Ningguang asking Qiqi to evacuate the crowd.

He frowned and said in a dissatisfied tone: "The work of evacuating the crowd should be carried out by the Qianyan Army. How can a child be allowed to bear such a responsibility?"

"And no one will believe Qiqi's words. We must send some Qianyan troops over as soon as possible."

When Ningguang heard this, she nodded in sudden enlightenment and understood what Shao Yun meant.

"Oh, I see why you were causing a commotion at the port, that's why. But the main reason is..."

Shao Yun waved his hand impatiently, interrupting Ningguang's words, saying that he didn't want to know why Qiqi was asked to go, but instead urgently asked her to immediately send someone to the port to take over Qiqi's task of evacuating the crowd.

"Don't interrupt, send people to the port to evacuate the crowd!"

Ningguang looked Shao Yun up and down in confusion and asked curiously, "Haven't you completed the evacuation mission?"

Shao Yun pointed in the direction of Liyue Harbor, smiled bitterly, and said, "Qiqi is still preventing people from returning to the port area because she listened to you. How long do you think my approach can last? Do you really believe that anyone would listen to a kid like Qiqi?"

Ningguang shook her head slightly, with a satisfied smile on her face, and said softly, "No, because the Jade Pavilion will be completed soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, before Shao Yun could say anything, Paimeng's clear and pleasant voice came over.

"Shao Yun, so you are here. We were just planning to come and see how the reconstruction of Qun Yu Pavilion is going."

Shao Yun turned around and looked at the three people approaching. He saw familiar faces - Ying, Paimeng and Shen He.

He smiled slightly and greeted them, "Ying, Paimeng, and Shenhe, what a coincidence, Ningguang said that the Qun Yu Pavilion will be completed soon."

Ningguang also politely greeted the three people who had just arrived.

"Yes, you came just in time. The Qun Yu Pavilion is almost completed. I was planning to invite you to witness the last step of its reconstruction."

Paimon's eyes lit up, and he asked curiously, "The last step? What is it?"

Ningguang smiled and waved to everyone.

"Come with me, you should witness it."

……

Afterwards, at Ningguang's enthusiastic invitation, several people stood together on a lifting platform carefully made of floating stone and slowly climbed up to the brand new Qun Yu Pavilion.

Today, except for Ningguang's precious furniture which has not yet been fully arranged, other aspects of the Qun Yu Pavilion have basically been restored to the same state as before.

At this time, Ningguang skillfully controlled the immortal talismans and Qianqi cores, and carefully placed them into the control cabin of the Qun Yu Pavilion.

While operating, she patiently explained in detail to Ying and others.

"Ingeniously combine the immortal talisman with the Qianqi core and place it in the control cabin of the Qun Yu Pavilion. In this way, the Qun Yu Pavilion can be officially rebuilt."

"Next, just retract the sturdy iron chain, and it will rise into the sky as usual."

Paimeng opened his eyes wide, staring at everything that happened in front of him, and said in amazement: "So this is how the Jade Pavilion was built. It's amazing!"

After all the work was completed successfully, Ningguang turned around, smiled, looked at Shao Yun, Ying, Paimeng and Shen He comfortably, and said gratefully.

"Thank you for your hard work. But I can't deliver the information that Paimon wants for now. I will give you the information you want at the banquet, okay?"

Paimeng smiled and waved at Ningguang, saying, "Hehe, there's no rush."

Then Paimeng looked at Shen He beside him and asked, "By the way, Shen He, do you have anything to ask?"

Shen He didn't expect that the question would be about herself. She asked awkwardly, "Me?"

Paimon nodded and said happily, "Yes! Because we all gathered the materials together!"
