The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

No, I have already been beaten into this state by them, and Xia Yu can communicate with these little monsters, why was it me who was questioned first! ?Although the cause of the matter seemed to be that he was not responsible... the feeling of being suspected first made Ying feel a little aggrieved.

"Well... isn't this Cave in the Pot mine? Because I was chased and beaten by them before, I originally wanted to show off to these floating spirits and compare the living environment between Haizhi Island and here. "." The blond girl who started to explain stopped at this point.

"So, I said to them, 'Look! The environment of this cave in the pot is so good, even you who have only lived here for a few days have gained a little weight', and then..." Ying said here He showed an extremely embarrassed smile.

Come on...there's no need to explain anything.After listening to Ying's explanation, Xia Yu let out a long sigh.

You know, floating spirits are small monsters with high element density that can still float in mid-air. What they are most proud of is their precise element control ability, which allows them to control all the elements in their body. , and try to reduce its own weight as much as possible, so that the floating spirit can float and fly lightly in the air.

As a result, you said that they have gained weight. From the floating spirit's point of view, doesn't this mean that no matter how fat you are, you will become free-roaming chickens and be unable to float~haha~! 'Are these words full of sarcasm...

Well played!It’s time to fight!

After comforting and sending away several floating spirits who left with satisfied expressions after examining Ying's miserable situation, Xia Yu took out a glass of iced sunset juice from the refrigerator and handed it to the blond girl who was in a state of isolation, looking at Ying's Looking aggrieved, Xia Yu smiled and comforted: "Okay, here you go, try it. The sweet fruity taste should make you feel better."

"The other thing is to think about it, if you were told by others that you have gained weight, how would you feel?"

Xia Yu, who asked Ying, looked at the other person and suddenly froze in embarrassment. Ying scratched his head and looked extremely embarrassed. After hesitating for a long time, Ying, who was still confused, said: "But... they are not monsters." What?"

"Can't monsters care about their own figures? Think about Morax. We have seen the prototype of Morax in the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, right? Although it was a fake created by himself." He tried to enlighten. The friendly Xia Yu moved Zhongli out directly.

"Look at Mr. Zhongli who has transformed into Morax. He has a slender figure without losing a sense of strength. His appearance is also at the age of 27, which is a stage that does not lose the energy of youth but is not too young. And his appearance It’s also obviously been specially retouched.”

"With his perfect appearance and his stable temperament that cannot be changed for thousands of years, how popular is Zhongli in Liyue Port? There is also the Dragon King Ruotuo, who just entered the Huzhong Cave some time ago. Are you losing weight because of the fat that has been sealed for thousands of years? The devil pays so much attention to appearance, how can the little monsters not care about other people's evaluation of themselves? "

This... is completely irrefutable... After a set of theories, Ying was immediately silenced and fell into silence.If someone dares to say that I am fat, I will definitely rush up and beat that person without saying anything.

As a result, now it seems that I have indeed hit a mine?Ying, who was thinking carefully, felt that something seemed wrong.

yes!Logically speaking, shouldn't these little monsters be unable to understand human language?Why can I understand what I'm talking about after hanging out with you Xia Yu?

Chapter 218 Holy Land? Leave professional knowledge to professionals

"By the way, Xia Yu, this is the holy land you asked me to bring back." Finally, he remembered what he was going to do, and brought back Haiji Island from his pocket, which had become lumpy and lost its nutrients. The expression on Xia Yu's face when he handed the 'soil' in front of him seemed a little uncomfortable.

It was precisely because I had stayed on Haiji Island and interacted with the local residents that I understood how difficult it was for the people under the national lockdown.They were really frightened by the famine and cherished the better land. Even if they tried external composting technology until they felt like vomiting, they still had to work hard to find a way to at least eat some food. Food is the way to survive.

Even if Coral Palace Xinhai and Goro, who seem to be okay in their own eyes, did do something wrong because of their positions, these ordinary people who are willing to work hard to survive are definitely the most qualified to continue to survive.So what is the biggest problem facing Haiji Island?Apart from the war with the Inazuma Shogunate, there is only the issue of consecrating the island's own land.

Therefore, I should at least give it a try myself and see if there is anything I can do to help.

Is this the land of Haiji Island that has been transformed into a "holy land"?Taking the stone that had turned white from Ying's hand, Xia Yu frowned as he felt an inexplicable familiar feeling. "Ying, do you have any more information related to the transformation of the Holy Land?" Xia Yu asked the blond girl and looked at her and shook his head.

"No more, because Xinhai and Wulang seem to be busy investigating something recently. In addition, I have been helping clean up the bandits around the island recently. I only have information related to the Holy Land transformation when I arrived in Haiji." I heard it from Xinhai when I was on the island."

The existing information is still too little, which would be a bit troublesome... Although I really want to help Ying, I can't find any clues at the moment.After placing the white soil that had been turned into holy soil on the table, he picked up a small hammer and knocked it gently. The 'soil' that shattered into powder like dry and agglomerated wall ash gave Xia Yu a headache.

It is indeed impossible to farm in such soil conditions...

Is the situation on Haiji Island really so hopelessly bad?Probably not... I still remember hearing from Ying before that although the land on the island is very poor, it is rich in products, especially products such as pearls.You know, the shells that produce pearls also need to be eaten. If the island is really miserable to the point of being destitute, then these things should have become extinct long ago.

"Huh? Why are these not delicious?" The voice of the floating spirit coming from mid-air made Xia Yu turn around.The obvious look of disgust in the big eyes of the little guy floating in mid-air aroused Xia Yu's interest.

It seemed that the floating spirit disliked the soil after turning into holy soil. Considering that the floating spirit almost absorbed the grass element from the green grass on the surface of the land when eating, Xia Yu suddenly had an idea.Maybe I can get some breakthroughs from them?

He waved to the little guy in mid-air and signaled it to stop on his arm. After firmly catching the little guy who immediately came over, he gently touched the structure that seemed to be a leaf on the top of the floating spirit's head. Seeing the little guy's comfortable expression when he narrowed his round eyes, Xia Yu asked, "Can you tell me why you dislike this soil so much?"

"It's too thin, tastes bad, and you have to move a little bit to eat a little bit, which is very troublesome." Although the answer from Floating Spirit was a bit confusing, Xia Yu felt that he could generally understand what the little guy was saying. What's the meaning.

When the land on Haiji Island was still alive, it should not be what it is now. However, compared with other fertile soils, even if the land on Haiji Island can be used for farming, it is very barren.

This should be why Fuiling complained that it was too thin and tasted bad.As for eating a little and moving around, it's much easier to understand. This is probably what Floating Spirit used to describe how barren the ground on Haizhi Island is.Even if there is green grass, only the thin layer is nutritious. It is no wonder that they have to eat a little and then move away.

The theoretical analysis has been roughly understood, but if you want to confirm what the ground conditions are like on Kaiji Island, you still have to conduct on-site inspections.only...

"Ying, are you sure you want to help Haiji Island?" Xia Yu asked the blond girl and saw a serious look on her face.

"Well, I really want to help them. Even if the upper echelons of Haiji Island or some people are as evil as Xia Yu said, the people should not pay for their actions. And there are those who are led by me. The members of the Swordfish Second Division, aside from the estrangement from the Inazuma Shogunate due to the war, I can feel that at least they are really considering the situation of Kaiji Island."

That's it... Xia Yu fell into a brief silence after listening to Ying's explanation.

"I'm at Inazuma's Narukami Grand Shrine now. You can take me there to have a look while you're getting ready."

————————————————————————

The Chenge Pot brought directly by Ying entered the cave in the pot again, and she took it to Haiji Island again. Xia Yu, who finally had the opportunity to carefully observe the situation on Haiji Island, was extremely shocked.

This... the terrain of Kaiji Island is really far different from that of Hachiji Island and Narukami Island! ?If most of Hachijima Island and Narukami Island are mainly flat lands, then the steep geographical environment of Kaiji Island alone can make people feel the danger here.

What surprised Xia Yu even more was that there were even many coral reef-like rocks on the ground of Haiji Island. Looking at it, the pieces of rock that looked like huge shells made people gasp in surprise.

The dangerous geographical location of Haiji Island... The first thing to do was to test what it would be like to become a holy land. Xia Yu turned his attention to the four floating spirits he brought out, and then asked: "Can you do it?" Do you want the land here to turn completely white like that ball of soil just now?"

The four little guys who nodded in unison seemed to clearly understand this approach. However, judging from their troubled expressions and the emotions they conveyed, the little guys seemed to be somewhat resistant to this approach.As for the reason...

"Do you really want to eat such unpalatable grass...?" The floating spirits whose voices were full of reluctance made Xia Yu understand. The four little guys he brought out seemed to dislike the land of Haiji Island. The smell of grass...

There seems to be some truth to it. Although there is normal green grass over there, the light blue and slightly purple turf where I and Ying are currently are obviously a little abnormal. If you switch to the floating spirit's perspective, It is reasonable to reject this abnormal grassland.

"You don't have to eat it, just let me see how you can make the land 'white'." After comforting the little guys, Xia Yu watched as the four little guys finally nodded in unison. nod.

The floating spirit slowly landed on the lawn not far from his feet and began to absorb the nutrients in the turf. His face was full of disgust. Xia Yu, who was lying on the ground and quietly observing the changes, began to feel sympathy. These four little guys conducted experiments to match themselves.

"Ugh..." It seemed that they couldn't bear the smell of the lawn. The floating spirits who couldn't bear it flew up unsteadily and carefully observed the position where the little guys left. Xia Yu was surprised to find that they had already faded away. The color of the blue and slightly purple lawn has become lighter, and there is a faint trend towards pure white.

Gently digging up the turf on the surface, Xia Yu looked at the gray and slightly crystallized ground below and had some thoughts.

Collect some and bring them back to Albedo to see. He should understand what this is like.After filling a small portion of the gray soil and the normal soil, Xia Yu nodded to Ying on the side and watched Ying take out the Chenge pot, and then the two entered the cave in the pot again. Inside.

Abedo, who lives in his own small courtyard, now enters the pot from the small courtyard every day because he often comes to the cave in the pot to take out the food he made. Therefore, he only needs to wait for Abedo's arrival near the refrigerator... .

"Hey, Xia Yu, are you finally free today?" Abedo, who came to the cave in the pot, was stunned when he saw Xia Yu's figure. While waving his hands to say hello, Abedo kept a calm expression and asked. To: "How was Inazuma's trip?"

"It's not bad. I'll probably be able to start tasting delicacies from various places in Inazuma in a few days." Considering that the interior of Inazuma had already started to be cleaned, Xia Yu had a smile on his face. "By the way, Albedo, help me analyze these three soils and see what are the differences between them."

While handing the bags containing the two pieces of soil that had just been collected into holy soil at different stages and the previous piece of soil that had completely turned white into Albedo's hands, Xia Yu continued, as if to emphasize: "These three The soil should have the same composition, but it seems to be what it is now due to the loss of nutrients or similar substances."

"Oh?" The arriving scientific research project aroused Albedo's interest in alchemy. "Will the same soil show these three different states? I understand." Abedo nodded as if he had touched on his expertise, showing an extremely confident expression.

"Tomorrow will still be the same time, and I will bring you the test results."

Chapter 219 Haiji Island is too short of resources and must use...

"You are the newly appointed captain of the Second Swordfish Squadron by Master Xinhai, right? Thank you for helping everyone all the time. After clearing away the rogue bandits around Kaiji Island, at least we can try to capture some seafood."

"Captain, may I ask...how is the battle between the front line and the shogunate? My husband joined the army. He said that under the command of Goro-sama and Shinkai-sama, everyone will return victoriously... "

"It's absolutely no problem. I have the latest news here. Everyone's strength seems to have improved recently. The shogunate army will definitely be forced to retreat by us!"

Walking in the residents' area of ​​Kaiji Island, looking at the expectant or grateful eyes of ordinary people looking at him, Ying, who didn't know how to express his current mood, could only force a smile to respond to these people's expectations.

The dispute between Kaijijima and Inazuma Shogunate Narukamijima is so complicated...

As long as a war is not simply launched for invasion and plunder, there is no absolute right or wrong in itself.For example, this time Kaijijima united with collaborators who were willing to help to launch a resistance against the Inazuma Shogunate. The original intention was to survive.

But since it is a war, there will inevitably be casualties. When casualties occur, the two parties who could have negotiated will become entangled in endless entanglements due to irreversible deaths, such as the death of relatives and friends.It would be quite troublesome to end this war.

But the current problem is that Haiji Island is currently in an absolutely disadvantaged environment, and the reason is very simple - the lack of top-level combat power.

If we cannot find a way to end this war as soon as possible, the traces left by the sword on Yalu Island will still remind everyone of the majesty of General Raiden.During the exchange of information with Xia Yu, I also learned some very dangerous news for Haiji Island - the release of the evil spirit and resentment of Ba Ying Island was caused by the sergeants of Haiji Island.

Although there were many anti-human behaviors among the officials of the Inazuma Shogunate during the evacuation of the refugees afterwards, General Raiden has now begun an internal purge. The war is not over yet, and General Thunder is very likely to come to the door. By then, I am afraid that the problem will not be solved by killing one or two soldiers.

No matter what the reason is, it is indeed Kaijijima's side that provoked the conflict between Kaijijima and the Inazuma Shogunate in the form of war. Under such a premise, those who can fight to kill the enemy can be called the heroes of a country. .But if you know that the opponent has crushing level of combat power but still act recklessly and lead to the disaster of destroying the country, then this person can only be a sinner of the country.

At present, if we want to untie the chain of resentment, the two most critical tasks are to find out and solve the reason why Haiji Island's agricultural production cannot continue at all, and to try our best to convince the top leaders of Haiji Island who are leading the war, that is, Xinjiao. Hai and Goro, let them move the front to the negotiation table as much as possible.

No matter how difficult it is, I still want these people who are willing to live desperately to find their true dawn. Now Xia Yu has begun to find someone to help analyze the causes of the soil on Haiji Island. No matter what, I can't help. You have to keep working hard!Walking to the main gate of the Coral Palace, Ying's eyes gradually became firmer.

Next, it’s your own battlefield...

————————————————————————

"How about Albedo...are you all here?"

The next day, Xia Yu, who was waiting for Albedo to arrive in the cave in the pot, witnessed a scene that surprised him. In addition to Albedo, Timaeus and Sugar, who were brought by Abedo, came here together. In the cave in the pot, Abedo, who concealed his identity, seemed to have not been discovered by the two of them that he was not the person they knew well.

But...it's just a piece of dirt. Is it really necessary to put up such a big formation?

"Well, because the soil samples you gave me, Xia Yu, are very interesting." Abedo began to explain and placed the samples on the table. "From a certain point of view, in fact, Xia Yu, the soil you gave me is all the same." Abedo gave the conclusion, which surprised Xia Yu.

ah! ?He never expected to come to this conclusion. Xia Yu, who repeatedly picked up piles of soil, could not connect them.

How can this be the same! ?Although the best one is barren, at least there are some weeds on the surface, and the worst one can be directly compared with the plaster used to paint the wall. If they are the same, wouldn't my eyes be in vain?

It seems that he noticed from Xia Yu's face that he did not believe this conclusion. Grantang on the side also stood up. Grantang, who seemed a little excited, said quickly: "Teacher Abedo is right, these foundations of soil It’s really the same.”

"Actually, the soil you gave us, Xia Yu, is not soil, but a rock similar to the base. The so-called soil and the lawn above are actually similar to plants." Sugar in the explanation gestured to Timaeus who was standing aside. The research report jointly produced by the three of them was handed to Xia Yu's hands.

This...soil can also be lawn and live?After receiving the report, Xia Yu began to read it carefully. Although he could not understand the large amount of data above, Abedo summarized it at the end of each paragraph.

"This kind of soil is active and softened by the plants attached to the surface. After losing the attachment on the surface, the original base will be exposed in its original appearance, which is a completely rocky state..."

Although I still can't understand it, considering that Sugar's research specialization is related to plants and organisms, and Abbexi, who has been secretly studying his alchemy notes under Abedo's intention, is actually not much behind him. Xia Yu still believed in the authority of this research report.

This is why the sense of déjà vu is so strong... After carefully recalling scenes similar to this in his memory, Xia Yu finally discovered similar clues.

yes!Isn't this similar to coral?

In fact, coral itself is not colorful. The original white base of coral is due to the existence of microorganisms attached to its surface, that is, the presence of various coral polyps, which gives coral its various beautiful colors.

In an environment where ocean temperatures rise, coral polyps that have lost their activity and died will expose the white color of the coral itself. This is also the phenomenon of coral bleaching that is often mentioned.

If you think about it carefully, compared with the basically flat island land surfaces of Narukami Island and Yaoji Island, the steep and towering terrain of the corner of Kaiji Island I saw that is sunk below the sea level is not very similar to that of Narukami Island and Yaoji Island. Are the corals on the sea surface exposed from the bottom of the sea?

"In other words, as long as the lawn plants on the rock surface are still there, the soil will remain active, right?" Xia Yu, who once again confirmed the alchemy trio, looked at the other three and nodded.

This is quite interesting. The extra-large island-shaped coral reef with the characteristic style of Teyvat can be compared with the Coral Palace of Haiji Island... I didn't expect that the other party was actually built on an island made of coral. palace!

Now, the mystery of Haiji Island land has been solved, but how to apply it in practice?

"Um..." Sartang, who came with Abedo, spoke up. The girl who looked a little embarrassed focused on the balls of soil brought by Xia Yu. "Xia Yu, if you can, can you give me these balls of soil? I want to try to cultivate this new plant that I have never seen before!" The girl with a bit of excitement in her expression made Xia Yu open it immediately Got the idea.

yes!Isn’t Sugar a professional in this area?She is proficient in plant research and should be able to give herself some effective suggestions! "Okay." Xia Yu nodded in agreement and saw that the animal ears on the girl's head seemed to be trembling slightly because of the happy emotion.

"But now I am also facing some problems related to this kind of 'plant'. Sugar, how do you think we can supplement nutrition for these 'plants' that activate rocks?" Xia Yu asked the girl and looked at the other party. He held his chin with one hand and began to think seriously, seeming to be equally concerned about this issue.

"Well...if it were me, I would try to fertilize these special plants attached to rocks in a similar way to planting plants. But what kind of fertilizer should be used and what effect will it bring? It should take time to test to find the most suitable one.”

The answer given by Sanduang made Xia Yu nod. Analyzing from a theoretical point of view, Sanduo's point of view is completely feasible. From the perspective of experiments and quantitative small-scale cultivation, there is no fault in Sanduo's approach.

But...I can't do this on my side. As for the reason...even if Sugar finds the most suitable nutrients to increase the fertility of the land on Haiji Island in her own way, there are so many continuous fields on Haiji Island. It is a small island. If you want to keep the entire island in a relatively fertile state suitable for crop growth, how much financial resources will it cost to do it?

There are also later maintenance costs. Even if such a solution is found, the residents of Haiji Island need to continue to use this method. Even if the lockdown order is lifted in the future, if all the money from selling pearls is used They all use it to buy fertilizers that make the land fertile. Are they willing to bear this financial cost?

What I need to find here is a more economical solution that can even recycle itself... After giving the special soil from Kaiji Island as a sample to Sugar, I sent it away and expressed my gratitude to myself again and again. After the girl with a happy smile, Xia Yu fell into deep thought.

"What's wrong? Are you still worried?" As if aware of Xia Yu's difficulties, Abedo walked over. "It seems that the result we came up with has not helped Xia Yu completely solve your current problem?" Abedo asked Xia Yu and seemed to be very concerned about the current situation.

"How should I put it... In principle, it is completely solved, but if you want to apply it in practice, I am afraid that few countries can afford to invest funds from the perspective of practical application... "

After telling Albedo about the situation on Haiji Island and the reason why he brought these 'soil' samples he brought, Xia Yu found that Albedo's expression did not seem as serious as he imagined. On the contrary, he laughed out loud, which was extremely rare.

"Actually, the solution already exists, it just depends on whether you can notice it." After speaking, Abedo, who left with Timaeus, waved to Xia Yu. "If Xia Yu still can't find it tomorrow, I will tell you the answer."

Is there a solution already...?

What Abedo said when he left made Xia Yu very concerned. If he thought about it carefully, the solution should not be his own, but it definitely belonged to the overlapping area of ​​​​his and Abedo's activities... In other words, this solution should be In the cave in the pot!

So, what exactly is it... Just as Xia Yu was thinking one by one about what was in the cave in the pot, a tickling sensation from his feet made Xia Yu lower his head.

This is... a grass slime with a round head and a huge fruit appeared in Xia Yu's field of vision. The little guy with a happy look seemed to be showing off something to himself, trying hard to make himself The tall guy is working hard to deliver the fruit from his head to himself.

"Is this... for me?" Feeling the gratitude conveyed to him by this big guy about half a meter in size, Xia Yu couldn't help but smile.

It seemed that the first batch of grass slimes that he had brought into the cave in the pot seemed to be thanking him. After leaning down to receive the thank-you gift from this big guy, his color was bright and radiating. The sweet aroma of the fruit made Xia Yu feel full of appetite.

This appearance looks a bit like Apple...?After trying to take a bite, the fresh, juicy and crispy fruit immediately lifted Xia Yu's spirits.

This fruit is quite good!

It's a pity that this seems to be a fruit cultivated by grass slimes when they grow up. Even in a superior living environment like the Cave in the Pot, it normally takes a certain amount of time for grass slimes to grow from small to large. In addition, the results are so It takes a long time to have the opportunity to taste such a unique fruit.

But anyway, grass slime can make the soil fertile, and there is no pressure to raise it in the pot cave. In contrast, it seems that I need to add some floating spirits and floating water mushrooms to absorb some of the overly rich soil. Elemental power, otherwise, the soil fertility in the cave in the pot would have exceeded the standard according to A Yuan's complaints...

etc!Isn't this the way to solve the problem of land poverty in Haiji Island?Xia Yu, who focused his gaze on the grass slime, was immediately delighted.

If nothing else, the problem of Haiji Island has been solved!

Chapter 2 Xinhai, you don’t want all the people on Haiji Island to go hungry, right?

Although there is a preliminary plan, there are still many detailed issues that need to be considered when using grass-type slime for the rich soil of Haiji Island.
