A thousand miles to Jiangling can be returned in one day. Since we are going to the port, the fastest way is to go by water.

As for the boat that carried everyone, it was a wooden boat that was assembled by everyone using local materials in less than an hour.

With Tinari, a zoologist and botanist, there is no need to worry about the safety of collecting materials on the ship.

"The big ship is launching!"

Watching the boat enter the water and float steadily on the water, Paimon felt particularly proud even though he hadn't done much.

Following the river, everyone can truly take in the beauty of the Xumi Rainforest.

The monkeys on both sides of the river kept crying, and the boat had already passed through thousands of mountains. Coincidentally, there were also many strange-looking monkeys crying on the big trees on both sides of the river.

It was as if they were singing their own ballad across the river. The mother monkey was holding the baby monkey in her arms, quietly searching for lice on the child's body.

The strong male monkey rolled a lotus leaf into a cup shape, filled it with the sweet water of Sumeru River and presented it to the mother and child.

This should have been a happy and peaceful scene, at least until the river water became polluted!

The mother monkey just watched as she drank the river water. Suddenly, she twitched in pain, then she bit the little monkey's neck with tears in her eyes.

Seeing this scene, Jiraiya suddenly and quickly embraced Paimon in his arms and covered her eyes with his big hands.

Only then did everyone realize that the situation might be worse than expected. Humans can find out in various ways that there is a problem with the river water, but what about animals?

You can only rely on experience... and behind experience is often the painful price of blood and tears.

This is true for creatures on the road, not to mention the fish in the river. Piranhas, which are extremely aggressive and unique to the rainforest, will not easily attack living things before they smell blood.

However, it seems that due to the filthy pollution of the demon god, these beings actually rashly launched an attack on the original overlord of the river - the crown-of-thorns crocodile!

The closer to Omos Harbor, the more scarlet the river becomes... If it weren't for Jiraiya and Tsunade who were constantly emitting powerful chakra.

Perhaps this small boat has already been attacked by a mutated school of fish or a crown-of-thorns crocodile.

Looking at the depressed Tinari, Jiraiya rolled his eyes slightly, and then grabbed the pair of donkey ears on Tinari's head.

I really didn't expect that Tinari's big ears were so sensitive. His face immediately turned red with embarrassment the moment they were held.

He almost jumped up and stammered, "What...what are you doing! Don't touch anyone's ears at this critical moment!"

"Well, don't be so nervous. No matter how worried or nervous you are now, it won't make the water flow faster. It's better to calm down and stop thinking so much.

By the way, I originally thought that this donkey ear was just a decoration, but I didn’t expect it to be real? It’s soft and chewy, and it feels really good.

Why do you, a human being, have donkey ears? Cats, dogs, and especially rabbits have them! I can understand them, but why donkeys?

Hearing Jiraiya's question, Tinari's face turned even redder this time, of course this time it was not because of shyness but because of anger.

"What donkey ears! This is a sand fox. Do you know what a sand fox is? It's a small, agile and elegant creature!"

"Sand fox? Do you call donkeys sand foxes here? That's quite novel."

...I have to say, facing such a Jiraiya, Tinari actually just made a simple explanation instead of swearing. This shows that he is very well-educated.

While a few people were arguing, after four hours of drifting, everyone finally saw a collection of many large buildings.

"Wow! What a big port!" Paimon shouted excitedly even from a long distance away.

"Of course. The Port of Ormos is the largest port in Teyvat, apart from the Port of Liyue in Liyue, in terms of scale, trade volume, and passenger flow."

Tinari spoke in a clever way, revealing his pride in Port Omos and the entire Xumi.

As everyone got closer and closer to the majestic seaport, Jiraiya, Tinari and the others couldn't help but frown.

"Tinari, you said that the Port of Omos is the second largest port in Teyvat, with a huge flow of people. It shouldn't be so quiet, right?" Jiraiya asked in confusion.

I have also been to Liyue Harbor, and it is really bustling with people. Not to mention during the day, even in the middle of the night, the lights are still bright.

Small vendors were constantly moving through the streets, and the busy figures of the harbor sailors never stopped.

But this Omos Port was completely different. Even though they were so close, the ninjas with excellent hearing and Tinari with sand fox ears didn't hear anything...

Compared to Liyue Harbor, this feeling is more like the ghost village once seen inside the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain!

"Let's go in and take a look first..." Tinari became more and more uneasy.

The water of the Ganges River runs directly through the entire Port of Omos, so people can enter the port without even getting off the boat.

As everyone entered, Paimon soon discovered that there were indeed a large number of people in the port. It should be said that people were standing on both sides of the river.

But they just stood there strangely, thousands of people standing there without making any sound. That weird feeling made Paimeng's scalp numb.

"Hey! Are you guys okay?" Paimon greeted the crowd on the river bank with some panic.

Paimeng didn't expect any response, but suddenly he saw the thousands of people turning their heads at an extremely strange angle and saying, "It's you! Welcome!"

They almost all turned their heads to look at everyone at the same time. The angles they turned were extremely strange and did not seem like angles that humans could turn at all.

And the expressions on those people's faces were quite enthusiastic, at least they were smiling...

But Jiraiya and the others could not sense any emotional change from it at all, it was like a smiling face hooked by two iron hooks.

Each person carried a green void terminal, emitting a glowing green light that looked even more bizarre on the faces of the crowd.

"It's you guys!" Jiraiya pondered over these words. It seemed like he knew them.

While everyone was surprised, the people on both sides of the bank jumped into the Hengna River without blinking an eye.

"Hey! Don't jump!" Tinari felt his heart trembling. He should have already transmitted the information about the river water pollution into the void.

Why are these people still jumping into the river?

No, no, these... these people! They look more like they are controlled by the void!

Although he was not sure, Tinari immediately took off the Void Terminal from his ear and threw it into the river.

At this moment, the river was almost filled with people, piled up in layers. They couldn't even float! The people of the city!

Tinari's hands were trembling slightly... The Order of the Lords, the God of Grass. Who betrayed the people of Xumi?
