Genshin Impact: The Liyuemen of Tivat

Chapter 14 The world is so big

"What are you practicing? It's so scary! Shi Lan, don't think about practicing evil skills!"

Seeing Shi Lan's sweaty face, Xiangling couldn't help but think of a story about diners chatting in the restaurant, saying that a few years ago, a man in a village outside the city practiced evil skills to save his wife, but his wife was not rescued and he was arrested. The demon god who eats children came, causing the family to be ruined and the village to be destroyed.

And the feeling Shi Lan gave her just now is very similar to that story.

Someone in the same family was injured, and Shi Lan also practiced this strange technique.

It made her shudder.

"You're thinking too much..." Shi Lan wiped the sweat from her head, and comforted, "This is... left by my unknown parents... Although it looks weird, it has greatly improved my physique."

"Really?" Xiangling was dubious.

"Really, if you don't believe me, ask the rice crust."

Crispy Rice: "??" (None of my business!)
However, it still shook its head very spiritually, indicating that Shi Lan's exercises are fine.

As for why it feels okay, it doesn't know.

I just feel that the aura produced by this kind of exercise is a bit familiar, and I feel like I have seen it there before, but it is definitely not the evil technique that Xiangling thinks.

When mentioning the crust, Shi Lan's eyes were full of gratitude.

He couldn't cope with the situation just now, and every time he took the third step, this kind of chaotic memory would appear, causing him to lose control of his breath.

The sound of the rice cake directly pulled him out of his confusion, and he was able to complete this step smoothly.

Feeling the still turbulent aura in his body, Shi Lan felt sure in his heart that when the aura calmed down tomorrow, the third step would be completed successfully.

Xiangling circled around Shi Lan and said in surprise, "So, is this the secret of defeating the wild boar when you were ten years old? I've never seen you practice before."

Being praised by Xiangling like this made Shi Lan very embarrassed, and explained: "It's not all my ability to defeat the wild boar, I also dug a trap."

Xiangling suddenly realized: "Oh, I understand! Then you knocked it out with a stone!"

"No, I jumped down and knocked him out."

"Jump...jump down..."

Xiangling was dumbfounded, imagining the scene of a duel between a little boy and an adult wild boar in a pit, and stammered, asking: "Isn't that more dangerous?"

Shi Lan took the fan from Xiang Ling's hand and continued to fan the medicine stove, while replying, "I have a weapon."

"Eh? What weapon?"

"Break off the tusks of a wild boar to make a weapon, and then knock it on the head. It's easy to knock it unconscious."

Xiangling: "..."

Shi Lan's words really frightened the little girl. She didn't recover until the medicine was boiled. She kept imagining the scene of Shi Lan fighting wild boars in her little head. No matter how she thought about it, she felt that it was outrageous.

She felt that Shi Lan was lying, but the big wild boar was bought by her family. It was really like what Shi Lan said at the time, the wild boar was still alive, it was knocked out and carried back, and the two fangs were indeed broken. I didn't think too much about it at the time, but now I realize that it was actually broken by Shi Lan...

Shi Lan picked up the medicine stove and was about to go back to the house, but found that Xiangling was still in a daze, so she kicked the rice cake: "Cough rice, call your master, she seems to be asleep."

"chatter!"

Guoba cooperatively pulled Xiangling's hand, and then woke her up.

Xiangling pouted: "I still don't believe it! You must have used a conspiracy!"

"Yes yes yes! Conspiracy and trickery."

"Did you use narcotics? Poison the food? Did you sneak up on it while it was sleeping? Poor pig fell into your tricks, human beings are really cunning!"

"You're talking about the way you and Uncle Mao go up the mountain to catch wild game, right?"

"Not all of them, most of them know how to use bows and arrows... Oh no! It's all done by my father. If I were to catch a little squirrel, I would let it go..."

"That's because the squirrel meat is unpalatable and can't be sold at all?"

"Shi Lan! You are so annoying!"

The two returned to the kitchen noisy, Shi Lan looked for a bowl to pour soup and medicine for her father, and Xiang Ling wandered around in the kitchen.

The kitchen of Shi Lan's house is very small, which is completely different from that of Xiangling's house. Although it is small, it is very clean, and the desk and stove are free from oil stains.

On the one hand, it is due to Shi Lan's daily cleaning, and on the other hand, Shi's family cooks very quickly. The father and son cook one dish is enough for two lunches and dinners. If there are few dishes, they will naturally be clean.

In addition, there are very few ingredients in the kitchen, except for rice and noodles, there are only some vegetables and bacon.

In addition, there are refrigerators in the kitchen, which are filled with ice elements that can store elemental power. Although the elements cannot be mobilized for use, they can be frozen and kept fresh in the cabinet.

This thing can be bought in Bubulu. When it is used up, it can be replaced with a new one. It can be used for a month at a time.

Xiangling planned to make a breakfast for Shi Lan, but she couldn't find any ingredients to use, but she found a pot of dough that had risen.

"Shi Lan, what is this dough for?"

"I sent out the noodles yesterday, and I plan to steam steamed buns for my father this morning, but you brought breakfast, so let's put it away."

Xiangling picked up the basin and sniffed it: "Can I use it?"

"what are you planning to do?"

"How about I make you a breakfast for my new dish?"

Is there such a good thing?

Shi Lan nodded impatiently.

The bench was moved, Xiangling washed her hands, rolled up her sleeves, stood on the bench and started kneading dough, and Guoba also stood on the edge of the table and chattered, as if guiding her.

After filtering out the dregs of the medicine, Shi Lan took out the poured soup and medicine to Shi Shan, and gave the stage to Xiang Ling.

Shi Shan had already finished his breakfast, put the empty bowl aside, saw Shi Lan coming, and asked curiously, "Did Xiang Ling go back?"

"No, I'm cooking food in the kitchen, you drink the medicine first." Shi Lan blew on the soup and medicine, and handed it to Shi Shan.

Shi Shan didn't talk nonsense, he took a sip and felt that the heat was moderate, so he raised his head and drank it in one gulp, then took the apple handed by Shi Lan.

"Eat an apple to relieve the bitterness."

Shi Lan packed up the bowls and chopsticks and prepared to wash them in the kitchen, but Shi Shan immediately stopped him:
"I said son, your Uncle Mao is a nice person. Why don't you go to learn how to cook? In Liyue, his craftsmanship is top-notch. He intends to accept you as an apprentice. In the future, he will directly be the chef of Wanmintang. ?”

Shi Lan stopped in her tracks, turned her back to Shi Shan, and did not turn her head.

From the kitchen came the sound of Xiangling ordering the rice cooker to spit fire, and the cooking had already started there.

After being silent for a long time, Shi Lan lowered her voice, her immature voice was slightly deep, and said slowly: "Father, did you have any dreams when you were young?"

"Of course I have." Shi Shan smiled and said, "Don't talk about being young, my biggest dream now is to raise you up, and then we can live our lives in peace and stability."

Shi Lan nodded, and continued: "An An'an and a stable life...is really beautiful, but it's not suitable for me."

"Ok?"

Shi Lan turned her head and looked out the window.

The morning light is falling from the sky of this prosperous city, the streets illuminated by the newly awakened sun are white, and the pedestrians on the streets are bustling.

Shi Lan's eyes shone brightly.

"Have you ever set foot on the Longji cold mountain where the old country is frozen? Have you ever seen the other side of the sea, the legendary Wuxiang knife that cut off the mountains and seas? Have you ever heard of the high mountain that sang the wind and freedom? Song of the sky? Have you ever yearned for the island in the sky that hangs high above the heads of the world and represents the supreme divine power..."

Shi Shan's head was tensed with blue veins: "Speak human words to me!"

Shi Lan turned her head, smiling brightly.

"Father, the world is so big, I want to go out and wander."
