Chapter 305 Another Thor's Heart
"That dragon head actually swallowed itself just now! Did it do this the previous times too?"
As soon as Xu Ning landed on the central lawn, he heard Yae no Kamiko pointing at the dragon head above the "Tianlu" wine spring and talking to Wendy in blue.
As expected, it was this scumbag fox who caused all this trouble. But thankfully, she didn't sacrifice herself. Is that a stroke of luck or a misfortune?
"What did you throw in?"
Xu Ning looked up at the sky. The three layers of Reba patterns on the reverse scales of the dragon's jaw were clearly visible. The clear wine in the dragon's mouth was gradually returning and flowing down.
The newly fallen wine had a faint purple hue, and faint, wispy lightning could be seen dancing on the surface of the wine pool.
"What else could I throw down? The Heart of God, of course. Do you think I could just throw any Tom, Dick, or Harry into this Jiuquan and they'd be happy eating it?"
The one who replied was naturally the proud-looking woman in green.
Xu Ning glared at the cowardly snakeskin, not letting you interrupt.
Xu Ning turned his attention back to the instigator of this matter—Yae no Miko.
Yae no Miko shrugged. "Just like Xiao Qingyi said, I threw out the Heart of Thor, then the Great Dragon Head ate it, and then..."
"I wasn't asking about the process. Didn't you just give the Heart of God to the skirmishers? Where would you get the Heart of God... Oh, you gave the skirmishers a fake, hehe, you're something else!"
Thinking he had guessed the answer, Xu Ning immediately gave Yae no Kamiko two thumbs up.
Yae no Miko curled her lip. "If it were fake, why would he be so happy? Does he really think everyone else is stupid?"
Xu Ning was speechless for a moment, "Then, this is..."
"Just like the one that guy has, it's definitely a genuine Heart of God!"
Seeing Yae no Miko bend down and scoop wine from the wine spring with Qingyi and Wendy, Xu Ning was really confused.
Xu Ning turned around and searched for Master Ji in the cave. The little raccoon had moved a small stool and was lying in a corner of the cave. When it saw Xu Ning looking over, it stretched out its two little paws.
An illusion of a divine heart, crackling with purple lightning and possessing an exquisite form, appeared between the two claws of the Gifa.
This is exactly what it saw the divine child throw into the dragon's head.
Xu Ning pinched the corner of his eye and asked Yae no Miko, who was tasting wine, "Give me the address of your Inazuma no Miko wholesaler's store, I'd like to order another hundred or two hundred tons of their goods!"
Yae no Miko rolled her eyes at Xu Ning with disdain, "You're really thinking too much. Inazuma only has this one pair of twin thunder gods, and there's only this one pair of God Hearts. There aren't any more."
Twin Thors, therefore they possess the hearts of twin gods?
This isn't like pasting couplets, where everything has to be in pairs.
No, since the one in the heavens has already established the rule of seven gods ruling, how could he possibly go to the trouble of leaving behind an extra heart of a god?
Xu Ning voiced his questions to the Eightfold Divine Child.
Yae no Miko took a sip of the newly brewed wine and said leisurely, "Who knows? Just as the shadow makes the truth, and the truth makes the shadow, we two Thunder Gods might actually be two sides of the same coin. Perhaps the Divine Heart I gave you and the Divine Heart of the Scattered Soldiers are also two sides of the same coin!"
Xu Ning fell silent.
Yae no Miko filled another bowl with wine and handed it to Xu Ning, saying, "Don't think about anything else. Qingyi said I have the right to name this new wine spring. Quickly help me think of a suitable name."
Xu Ning took the bowl, looked at the lightning that had settled in it, and casually said, "The thunderous sounds gather like a thousand birds singing in unison, so let's call it 'Thousand Birds.' By the way, what about Kong?"
The woman in green pointed to a room in the west wing, and Xu Ning walked over with a wine bowl in his hand.
The eighth divine child then shouted to the one in blue, "Let's call it 'Chidori'. It's a bird, the kind that can fly."
Xu Ning pushed open the door to the west wing. Paimeng was holding a large handkerchief in both hands and fanning Kong's face with a look of worry on her little face.
When Xu Ning came in, the little white-haired boy glared at him irritably.
Xu Ning gave a wry smile. "He was just hit by the sudden release of the evil spirit's aura. With his constitution, he'll be fine. I'll just give him some thunder wine. That's what the giant serpent fears most about the evil spirit's aura."
He helped Kong up and slowly poured half a bowl of wine into his mouth, but he drank less than he spilled.
Xu Ning stopped when Kong began to swallow on its own.
"Wake up! Xinhai and Linghua heard you were injured and came to see you. They're waiting outside. Who do you want to see first?"
Kong slowly opened his eyes, shook his head with difficulty, and said, "How could they possibly come here, let alone come together?"
Xu Ning patted Kong's shoulder and laughed, "You're alright. The fact that you can think so clearly means your head is fine. Get some rest first!"
"Where is that person?"
Xu Ning thought for a moment before realizing that Kong was asking about stragglers.
"We couldn't stop him; he got away."
Xu Ning casually brushed the matter off, told the delighted little white-haired boy to take good care of Kong, and then turned and left.
Beidou has joined the group of people drinking outside.
After seeing Xu Ning come out and asking about the situation, Beidou said to Xu Ning, "Fill up all these things, then we'll head back. Do you want to come with us?"
Xu Ning shook his head slightly, "Things here aren't over yet, so we can't go back for the time being."
"However, it seems that the conspiracy of the two officials in charge of Kanding and Tianling has been exposed. They are just one step away from putting everything on the General's desk."
Beidou nodded and said, "However, when I returned to the ship this morning, a crew member said that a merchant ship from Liyue brought news that Ningguang has already begun preparations for the reconstruction of the Jade Pavilion. Without you, it would be very difficult to accomplish something like this..."
Xu Ning nodded. "It's alright. When you get back, you can suggest that Ningguang first put out a public tender and proceed slowly. There might be other things that we need to prepare in advance."
Beidou didn't quite understand what Xu Ning meant, but he still nodded in agreement.
Over the next two days, Beidou led the fleet back to Liyue, while Xu Ning waited for Kong to fully recover.
The two returned and found Goro, informing him of the destruction of the Evil Eye Factory.
Then he went to the front line and met with Coral Palace Heart Sea again.
"I have already spread the news of your thwarting of the Fools' plot through some information channels. I believe the Shogunate army must have received the news as well, since there have been no battles in the last few days."
Coral Palace Heart Sea looks somewhat happy.
"After all, the Eye Hunt Order is actually being pushed by the Fatui. This information is enough to make many people think. If all forces work together, they might be able to change the current situation!"
Xu Ning shook his head slightly. "I think you're being a bit too optimistic."
