The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

It's better to leave this kind of thing to the boss to solve, which seems very troublesome at first glance...

————————————————————————

"Hello, welcome to Kavanyi. I am Abak, who is responsible for managing the security here for the Order." After introducing himself, the newly appeared middle-aged man stretched out his hand to shake Xia Yu's. "There are a lot of people talking here, sir. It's better to come to our stronghold first and then talk slowly."

The middle-aged man who looked at Xia Yu quickly made his own judgment.According to the report of the mercenary guarding the gate, this somewhat mysterious Mondstadt man claims to be a chef and also loves traveling. This can be believed based on observation.

After all, the traces of callus scars on his hands cannot lie, but the miraculous things he has done... After arriving at the mercenary garrison at the highest point of Kavanyi, Abak's expression also changed. Much more serious.

"I do know how to contact the guardians of the Red King's Tomb and the sacrifices. It's just that the things you mentioned, sir, are of great importance to the people of the desert. Therefore, you can guarantee that what you said is true. What?"

"I can guarantee that everything I said is true, and the corresponding evidence can be found in the Red King's Tomb. If I lied, then I will leave it to the people of the desert. Is such a guarantee feasible?" asked Abak. Xia Yu responded with strong confidence.

Xia Yu, who didn't notice any lies and seemed to be stating the facts, made Abal believe it even more.After confirming that his observation was correct, Abal said: "Okay, since you said so, I will send someone to contact the confidants of the Gilded Brigade guarding the Red King's Tomb. I hope that my trust in you will be a happy one." Cooperation."

"In the meantime, sir, please take a rest at Kavanyi. When the people arrive, I will ask them to come to you."

Following the mercenary who led the way to the hotel called Sands Journey, Xia Yu lay down and his eyes stayed on the Great Ci Tree King who was looking at him.The smiling King Daci Tree seemed to be very happy.

"I originally thought that Xia Yu was going to choose another method, but I didn't expect that Xia Yu, you would be so straightforward."

"After all, what you want, King Daci Shu, is to correct the wrong history. We alone are definitely not enough. Since you want to do it, you must try to find high-level people you can contact, so as to increase the influence of the matter." explained Xia Yu made the Daci Tree King on the side applaud with joy.

"That's right, if the other party doesn't believe it, then show some special abilities to scare the other party. Xia Yu, your ability will definitely have an impact on people with common sense. It is simply perfect~"

"Yeah..." Xia Yu, who was lying on the bed, fully agreed with the analysis of King Daci Shu and relaxed temporarily.The next step is to wait for the people from the Gilded Brigade to arrive. Although the long journey does not feel tiring due to my current physical condition, mentally I always want to rest for a while after walking such a long way.

Although he really wanted to go to the Chenge Pot, but after all, he was waiting for someone, so he might as well stay in the hotel for the time being. Xia Yu, who felt a little bored, looked at the Great Ci Tree King who was still looking at him with a smile. The Great Ci Tree King, who looks like a child, always feels that his actions do not match his appearance.

But the Great Merciful Tree King also mentioned that she became as young as she is now due to the lack of power. She should be able to return to normal after she leaves the World Tree.When thinking about appearance, an interesting thing caught Xia Yu's attention.

Since the dance of the Goddess of Flowers can be praised by the gods, then with the name of the Goddess of Flowers, she should have a very beautiful appearance.If this is the case, what about the Red King who has always been with the Flower God?Thinking of the power represented by the Red King, a masculine male face appeared in Xia Yu's mind.

No matter how you think about it, it should be like this... Let's try asking the Great Mercy Tree King. Thinking of this, Xia Yu asked: "Great Mercy Tree King, what is the appearance of the Red King?"

"Red King?" When the Red King was mentioned, the expression on the face of the Daci Tree King seemed a little strange. "Although I don't know what you are thinking, Xia Yu, you must hold back your laughter when you arrive at the Tomb of the Red King, because... the Red King has the appearance of a human body and a dog's head."

?

Dog head?The unexpected answer made Xia Yu burst into laughter for a while. He just wanted a happy hat dog? Doge dog head?Or is it the other types?The Red King, who thought he was full of majesty, suddenly lost all his majesty in the description of the Great Ci Tree King.

Fortunately, King Daci Shu reminded himself, otherwise he would probably laugh out loud when he arrived at the Red King's Tomb, and then the problem would be huge.Just when Xia Yu was lamenting that he had escaped a danger, a knock on the door attracted Xia Yu's attention.

Coming so soon?When he came to the door and opened it, Xia Yu was slightly surprised by the three people who appeared at the door.

So high!

Since he arrived in Teyvat, the tallest person with the form of "person" he has interacted with is probably the captain of the advance team of Fools who is only a little shorter than himself.And the man who appeared in front of him now with black dreadlocks and extremely healthy bronze skin was actually a little taller than him.

The strong body is full of angular muscles without losing the beauty of streamlined muscles. The golden veins flowing on his body give him a mysterious feeling.

As for the pink-haired woman next to him who was dressed in luxurious clothes, she seemed to be of considerable background. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes that were suitable for the hot weather in the desert. The fiery red and dark black clothes made her tall figure look particularly alluring.

"This is the gentleman." Arbuckle, who was responsible for guiding the way, looked extremely respectful in front of the two of them. "This gentleman mentioned that he knows some truths related to the Red King and can prove it in the Red King's Mausoleum. It just so happens that you two are passing by here on vacation, so I found you."

"Hello, my friend from Mondstadt." The muscular man's broad palm rested on Xia Yu's shoulder. "My name is Akel, the chief of the Red King's Tomb Guards. Looking at your well-trained body and the explosive sense of strength in your vaguely palpable muscles, I choose to believe you."

Perhaps because of the feeling of sympathy brought about by the similar physique and the explosive power in the muscles, Xia Yu felt that he seemed to have left a good initial impression on the strong man in front of him.

"Hmph, do you men all use this method to judge whether the other party is trustworthy?" The strong man's judgment attracted the eyes of the pink-haired woman on the side. "No wonder I discovered on patrol a few days ago that the treasure thief group had sneaked into the Red King's Tomb."

After complaining about her companion, the woman turned her attention back to Xia Yu. After looking up and down for a while, the pink-haired woman spoke again: "Although I don't know whether what you said is true or false, but before that... Prepare an outfit that will be useful in the desert. Eye masks to protect your eyes from the wind and sand, and simple and lightweight clothing. Without these, it will be difficult to move in the desert."

"It just so happens that we are also in a hurry, Akel. Anyway, you are about the same body shape. Please lend this gentleman a set of your spare clothes."

After taking the desert clothes that the strong man took out of his bag and saying goodbye for a while, Xia Yu quickly put on the clothes and opened the door. He turned his head and looked at the slightly red-faced Daci Tree King next to him. Xia Yu showed a smile.

"The next trip to the Red King's Tomb is up to you, King Daci Shu."

"Well, don't worry Xia Yu, just leave it to me."

Chapter 344: A trip to the desert, a businessman who is not good at martial arts and the tragedy of a straight man

Prepare food and drinking water, and then put on the eye mask. The field of vision became much darker for a while. Although it was a bit uncomfortable for a short period of time, it did have the effect of blocking the strong sunlight and wind and sand.

If there is anything that I am not used to, it must be the fine sand under my feet. The special shoes that protect the entire foot tightly and increase the sole area make every step feel a little bulky, but that The feeling of foot sinking that could be felt every time he took a step reminded Xia Yu that it was indeed necessary to do this.

"Hahaha, how does it feel to come to the desert for the first time?" The strong man carrying a backpack patted Xia Yu on the shoulder. "You can't move quickly in the desert, and you have to be careful not to step on the poisonous animals hidden in the desert. Finally, there are the treasure thieves. Although they are the least threatening in the desert, they still have to be on guard. ..."

The strong man carefully explaining to Xia Yu the precautions for survival in the desert made the pink-haired woman beside him gradually look resentful. Because everyone was wearing blindfolds, Xia Yu couldn't tell the difference between this woman who still hadn't said her name yet. Is it him or Akel who is looking at him?

But if this continues, there's no telling what will happen... Feeling that the situation is a little bad, Xia Yu raised his hand and interrupted the introduction of the talkative man next to him, and then asked: "Mr. Aker, may I ask? This person you are traveling with is..."

"Eupelia, my wife." Akel looked extremely proud when talking about his wife. "Yuffie is one of the top people in the festival. During this vacation, I originally planned to take her to Sumeru City to visit various stalls at the festival."

"As a result, I happened to meet you, little brother Xia Yu, when I was passing by Kavanyi. Because you said the news was related to the Red King, so I decided to turn around and deal with the news related to the king first, so I came to find you." After explaining the reason, After that, Xia Yu fell into silence when the strong man once again talked about the chaotic situation of various gilded brigades in the desert.

Although the scorching sun above the desert in the afternoon was still radiating its own light and heat, the resentment emanating from the pink-haired priestess made Xia Yu's back feel cold.

Unexpectedly, the two of them were actually husband and wife, and they were preparing to go to Xumi City for vacation... Thinking about it this way, it was no wonder that her resentment was so deep.But the good thing is that now all the resentment of this tall pink-haired wife is focused on her husband.

Brother... don't continue chatting with me about desert survival. It's better to comfort your wife quickly!Although Xia Yu wanted to use his eyes to hint at the other party, the red eyepatch covering his eyes perfectly blocked the few ways to save the situation.

"Oh, that's right! With our pace, we should be able to reach Aru Village before dark. We will spend the night there tonight and continue to the Tomb of the Red King tomorrow." The strong man who was explaining eloquently was in Xia Yu's eyes. It had been marked with a reprieve of death, and just when the level of tragedy was about to rise further, an accident happened.

"Can anyone help me! The treasure thief group is attacking the merchant!!!" A rich male voice sounded from not far away. The emergency situation immediately made the three of them look at the source of the sound.

About 100 meters away, a strong Xumi man holding a machete was being besieged by four or five members of the treasure thief group. The goods thrown on the ground were stained with desert sand and looked a little dirty. chaos.

A businessman was really attacked!The strong man wielding a sword with all his strength seemed to be intimidating the members of the treasure thief group who were robbing him, but it had no effect. He had hand crossbows, knives, daggers, and potion bottles exuding elemental power. , the members of the treasure thieving group who robbed merchants showed a tendency to crush merchants not only in terms of configuration but also in number.

"Are you going to help him break out?" Xia Yu asked the two of them, but this time he got a very quick and unified answer. The two people who shook their heads in unison seemed to have no intention of helping. Other than that, the two of them The corner of his mouth that couldn't help but curl up always made Xia Yu feel a bit sarcastic.

"No need to go, it's just that we don't plan to help him, but he can solve the problem by himself." Akel, who was explaining to Xia Yu, finally couldn't help laughing, and his pace slowed down. Some.

"Hmph, do you really think that merchants without any guards are just robbing casually? They will soon be buried in the desert like the ruins of Gul City." Euphile said nothing during the whole journey to the desert. Ya finally spoke again, and the two completely unified opinions finally made Xia Yu feel at ease.

Not long after the three of them finished talking, the situation in the distance finally made new progress. The members of the treasure stealing group who planned to strike preemptively pressed the trigger of the hand crossbow, but the rapidly fired crossbow arrow happened to hit the player. The crossbow arrows bounced in the path of the sword-wearing businessman's blade, like the sound of a gunshot in a game, instantly opened the curtain of the killing.

The brawny businessman who seized the gap took advantage of the opportunity for the crossbowman to reload the crossbow and quickly ran in front of the two treasure thieves members holding daggers and knives. The machete he swung out suddenly brought the first enemy in the desert. Bloody light.

The two members of the treasure thieving group were cut into two pieces by the diagonal slash and the horizontal slash. One rolled forward to avoid the fire element bottle thrown by the frustrated alchemist, and the businessman kicked off the sand. A large amount of sand was poured out, and at the same time, the crossbowman who was still aiming was given a chill.

The frightened alchemist sat down on the ground. He rolled and crawled away from the strong man's pursuit, but he plunged into the loose quicksand, and within a short moment he became the various figures hidden in the sand. Reserve food for animals...

This...does this really need rescue?The uninjured strong businessman made Xia Yu confused for a moment what to say. As the distance continued to shorten, the strong businessman who noticed the approach of Xia Yu and the three men showed an extremely honest smile.

"Thank you three for coming to help. Fortunately, the members of the treasure thieving group who robbed me this time are not good at it. Even if I am not good at martial arts, I can barely cope with it." After picking up the products scattered on the ground, he patted the sand on the surface. , waved goodbye to Xia Yu and the others and continued on the road to Kavanyi.

"His name is Habachi. He is a traveling businessman who often travels between the Red King's Tomb, Aru Village and Xumi. He has learned self-defense methods from Candice for a while in Aru Village. He is actually very good. But because he couldn't beat Candice, Habach always had a strange impression that he was weak."

After explaining why this situation occurred, Akel made Xia Yu dumbfounded. After walking forward for a while, two strange-looking monsters appeared in Xia Yu's field of vision - two monsters that had grown and evolved to a long length. A brown mushroom with two legs.

Although the size is still not as big as that of the Emerald Feathered Fungus, these two big guys have initially grown to a size of more than one meter. Although the two big guys with huge umbrellas on their heads are not as mature as the grass and ice types next door. The big guys have a pair of wings that can fly, but their strong legs are obviously much stronger.

What a big free-roaming goose!Xia Yu, who was interested in the two big guys, quickened his pace. Akel, who was about to remind Xia Yu, was stopped by his wife who raised his hand.

"Don't forget the reason why you rushed to accept Abal's commission." The reminder from his wife made the awakened Akel show an expression of realization.

Yes, the main reason why I rushed to accept the commission represented by Abal was because it involved the Red King. Furthermore, the client mentioned by Abal had a strong natural affinity and was powerful enough to be in harmony with monsters. coexistence.

This was also the main reason why I chose to trust this traveler from Mondstadt.Then, what he should see next is the scene where Xia Yu and the monsters coexist harmoniously.

Although the elites of the Gilded Brigade also tamed some spiritual beasts and monsters, they were basically raised from childhood, and their numbers were extremely rare.For example, it took a long time for the rock demon lizard that I tamed to grow to the size that it can now fight together.

Akel, who was vaguely expecting something in his mind, breathed a sigh of relief when he noticed that the two land-walking rock mushrooms did not show hostility towards Xia Yu who was approaching them. Looking at it this way, Xia Yu seemed to be able to fight with wild monsters. Communicate.

So, what is the truth about what Xia Yu said about the Red King?

————————————————————————

Hey, these two big guys are really ugly. Xia Yu, standing in front of the two Iwamoto mushrooms, felt a little curious. In this desert where it is difficult to move, such two thick thighs are indeed beneficial to them. Survive.

It seems that these mushroom beasts are quite adaptable. He raised his hand and touched the umbrella canopy above the two free-range chickens that came over. The fluffy and soft feeling made Xia Yu couldn't help but rub it a few more times. At the same time, the two big guys showed expressions of enjoyment on their faces.

"Good, good~ Where are you going to go next?" The expressions of enjoyment on the two mushroom beasts made Xia Yu couldn't help but laugh. Although he really wanted to invite these two big guys to travel together, Xia Yu decided to go first. Check their original purpose.After feeling the emotions conveyed by the two big guys, Xia Yu nodded.

It turned out that he was a 'hunter' who went out to forage and brought some food back to the small mushroom beasts in the community. In this way, he could only play with them for a while and then separated.Xia Yu, who felt a little pity, seemed to remember something and turned his head to look at Akel who was carrying his luggage behind him, and then waved.

"Mr. Aker, can you bring the gray package in the public bag?" Xia Yu greeted the strong man, took the package handed by Aker, took out the pet food inside, and then walked towards the two of them. A mushroom beast said: "I will give these pet foods to you, and you will help me carry our luggage to a human town not far away. How about it?"

After taking a shallow bite of the special pet food in Xia Yu's hand, the two Iwamoto mushrooms with shining eyes nodded quickly and circled around Akel, waiting for the strong man to put the luggage on their backs. The eagerness to try made Akel's head unable to turn around.

Is this really a successful transaction?He watched every interaction between Xia Yu and the monster without any hesitation. Not to mention the need to tentatively get closer. This kind of intimacy that acts like a spoiled child as soon as he gets close is much better than some domestic pets with bad tempers. They all need to be well-behaved...

If it's just like this, it's okay. After all, it's like a battle pet that he and his wife have tamed to fight together. Once the tacit understanding is in place, they can understand the instructions given.But what about Xia Yu?This kind of barrier-free conversation simply shows that he can communicate with monsters smoothly!

Is this ability really possible for humans?

"Brother Xia Yu, you really gave us a huge shock..." Akel, who put his hands on his hips and smacked his mouth, looked helpless. He unloaded the heavy package on his body and divided it into two parts. After getting on Lu Xingyan's back, the strong man who still couldn't believe what he saw in front of him shook his head.

"I didn't expect that one day the mushroom beast would actually be used as a pack animal. We should be able to arrive at Aru Village at dusk."

Akel, who lamented that the shortened action time was due to this reason, turned to look at his wife, and then shouted loudly: "Wife, let me just say it, Brother Xia Yu can believe it, just With such muscles, how can someone who wants to build such a burly figure have extra time to be evil?"

Yeah... The smile on Xia Yu's face, who was originally happy to have two more companions to help him salute during the journey, instantly solidified. He glanced secretly at the pink-haired woman who was holding back her anger and was on the verge of bursting out, and then returned to this place. Xia Yu, who looked like a straight-tempered muscular man, let out a long sigh.

Brother... You've already messed up your partner's holiday schedule and made her a little moody. Now you don't need to continue to stimulate her... Can't you just know this kind of thing in your heart?

"Yes, what you said is absolutely right, Akel." The pink-haired woman, suppressing the anger in her heart, came to the two of them. "It seems that I have been worrying too much along the way." After adjusting her mood slightly, with her husband's proud expression, the pink-haired woman turned her head and looked at Xia Yu.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Euphilia, the priest of the Red King's Mausoleum and the narrator of Blazing Sand. I am the wife of the 'strong-looking' Demonic Rock servant next to you. Unlike my husband, I only treat people I recognize. Please tell me your name. Mr. Xia Yu, you have indeed reached a level worthy of recognition in my evaluation."

After introducing herself, Euphilia took the arm of the strong man beside her, and then showed a smile that made people's eyes brighten on the surface.

"With the help of these two mushroom beasts, we do have enough time to find a good resting hotel in Aru Village, so... I want to have a good communication with my husband at night. Therefore, Mr. Xia Yu, can you wait until we wake up tomorrow and come find you to join us?"

Chapter 345 Aru Village, difficult dining conditions and guardians

Aru Village is a desert village built on a cliff in the desert. Fortunately, there is a water source below the village. Although the living conditions are very difficult, the villagers living in Aru Village are not completely unable to survive.

The most intuitive reflection of all this is the mental outlook of the villagers. Everyone is quite optimistic about their current life.It's rare to be able to stick to your heart in such a harsh environment.

"Okay, this is the food we agreed on. Let's meet again in the future." After sending away the two reluctant Lu Xingyan mushrooms, Xia Yu took his luggage back and looked towards the village.Compared with the rainforest on the other side of the sand wall, this place is indeed much behind, but on one thing, the two sides are quite consistent.

Yes, it is the various small stalls on the street, the dense stalls and the large number of people that make the not very spacious and slightly dilapidated path full of human touch.

Compared with the stalls in the Xumi Rainforest area, the stalls here are even worse, such as the old man who is stirring mashed potatoes, spice powder, and bald bean paste with his hands not far away.

The frantic stirring movements of the right hand collecting the mola and the left hand making the passing customers wonder if he was left-handed. However, when they saw that the old uncle’s right hand for collecting money was still much more flexible than his left hand, everyone couldn’t help but remain silent. for a moment.

It's just that... ingredients of this color seem to have to be mixed with some proper flavor to be worthy of its color. The diners who finally figured it out looked at each other and started to feast.

Perhaps it is because the natural ingredients are mixed with their proper taste and then added with the harsh taste of nature. The diners gathered around the stall finally understood what the most authentic taste of nature is.

It's clean and hygienic... Xia Yu, who felt his eyes go dark, pulled up the silk eye mask to cover his eyes. After the light recovered a little, he noticed that the two people beside him who had packed their luggage walked towards the stall quite naturally. Xia Yu hurriedly He stood in front of the two of them.

"You two...are there really no problems with the food at these stalls?" Xia Yu asked, looking at the two of them and shaking his head helplessly.

"Brother Xia Yu, of course we also know. It's just that the relatively clean food in Aru Village is made by the villagers' homes. We don't have the kind of acquaintances in Aru Village who can be close enough to dine at each other's homes...anyway We can’t eat it to death, so we have to make do with these roadside stalls.”

Akel, who told the extremely tragic but helpless facts, made Xia Yu fall into silence.

Indeed, the road from Kavanyi to Aru Village was so deserted that even the monsters had to go out to look for food. Not to mention a small inn, even a small camp for rest could not be set up due to the wind and sand.

Therefore, Aru Village has truly become the first stopping point during this long journey.There was no one in the village who knew anyone who could eat at home, and the hotel nearby only had a simple accommodation function, so what else could be done?Don't we just have to make do with these roadside stalls...

"Why don't you wait for me to cook..." Xia Yu, who had already made up his mind to use the Chensong pot, pulled the two of them, and then asked: "Do you know where there is a door like this nearby? Abandoned For caves and dilapidated ruins, as long as there is a hole like a door, the other thing is that there should be as few people nearby as possible."

ha?They never thought that Xia Yu would ask such a nonsensical question. The two people looked at each other in confusion, and then fell into thinking.

According to Xia Yu, just find a place that is inaccessible and looks like a cave.After carefully recalling the topography and structure of the houses in Aru Village, the two men finally recalled something and nodded.

"It is true that there is such a hut near the White Staircase that is rarely used due to guarding." Euphilia looked a little embarrassed in the description. "Mainly because the location of the hut is too dangerous, and most of the nearby roads have been damaged due to disrepair. The normal journey has to be done from there..."

Speaking of this, Euphilia pointed to another sand path that slid downwards from the entrance of the village. Under the slope of more than [-] degrees, there was only a flat buffer section of less than three meters. Below this was an abyss. .

In addition, the wooden plank road to the initial section of the intersection has completely collapsed, and the rotten wood is piled on the ground. Even if you have the ability or are lucky enough to stop at this three-meter slope, you still have to climb the next step. After climbing to a high platform of more than two meters without any footholds, we had the chance to reach the hut opposite the trestle.

...It's really dangerous. The steep path made Xia Yu couldn't help but smack his lips. The high and deep canyon cannot be solved by simple wind wings. The strong wind in the canyon is not as tame as imagined. .It's okay if you take this kind of road once or twice, but if you take it every day, who would want to walk the tightrope between life and death every day, except for being able to fly?

"This is it. I have some special skills that allow me to enter other spaces and cook some food."

"Look, who can help me guard the door to prevent outsiders from entering? After all, what I'm waiting for may be a little subtle. Of course, it's no problem if someone comes with me." After explaining, Xia Yu looked at the two people and waited for them to distribute.

"Oh?" The tall and strong man was very interested in Xia Yu's words. "Then we must go and see it with Brother Xia Yu." Akel, who was occupied by curiosity and interest, did not notice the increasingly cold expression of his wife next to him.

No, brother, look next to you... You can easily spot it even if you don't take off the blindfold!Taking advantage of the opportunity to take out the Dongtian Guan Disk, Xia Yu deliberately swung his elbow in the direction of Euphemia, who was almost blackened, but failed to get Akel to focus all his attention on novel things. of attention.

Brother, you... forget it, just be sorry and accept the change.The Dongtianguan Disk was attached to the door, and the original rotten wooden door was immediately replaced by a light blue portal. After Xia Yu walked into the portal, just as Akel was about to follow, one reached out to his ear. His slender jade arms grabbed Akel's ears hard.

"You, stay here and guard the door for me, do you understand?"

"Okay, wife! It hurts, it hurts!"
