The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

"Well... I slept so soundly~" Ying straightened her hands and legs, stretched out a lot, and opened her eyes as she felt the slight clicking sound of her body being reactivated.

It turned out to be at Xia Yu's home... Although the soft and spacious sofa definitely didn't feel as good as a big bed when sleeping, I was really tired these days, so I slept quite comfortably even on the sofa.The blond girl rubbed her eyes and sat up. When she noticed the fragrance in the air, she lightly twitched her delicate nose a few times and sniffed, then showed a comfortable expression on her face.

The broth tastes so mellow~ Xia Yu must be cooking delicious food again.Following the familiar road to the kitchen, the first thing that caught my eye was Keli, Xiao Dulin and Xiao Qi holding small bowls. The three little guys were quietly drinking soup from the small bowls. The expression of enjoyment on his face makes people particularly greedy just by looking at it.

As for Xia Yu who was cooking, the huge wooden stirrer, the oversized soup bucket, and the blazing fire at the bottom of the pot gave Ying a sense of sight as if a witch was brewing potion.

Well...it's just that the wizard is a muscular male.

"Are you awake? Let's try the soup in the small pot over there. But remember to leave half of the pot, we will use it for today's dinner." Xia Yu, who noticed someone coming at the kitchen door, continued after finishing speaking Invested in cooking the soup.

The soup base of braised pork does not need to be as clear and translucent as boiled cabbage. The key is to ensure that the aroma of all raw materials can be integrated into the soup.Therefore, after using low heat to slowly soak out the aroma of various meats in the soup bucket, you can start stirring over high heat.This technique allows the remaining aroma in the ingredients to fully seep out, and makes the soup base thicker and milky white at the same time.

Next, just use gauze and a slotted spoon to separate the food residue from the cooked soup, and the top-notch soup is ready.As for the residue of the ingredients, there is no need to throw them away immediately. The second soup, which is slightly worse but needs to emphasize the aroma of the ingredients, and the secondary soup used to cook spicy-flavored bases can also be refined and cooked with these residues.

But now he doesn't have to be busy making these. The priority is to finish tonight's cooking first. Xia Yu's hands trembled slightly as he took out the homemade lactone tofu.

Before coming to the continent of Teyvat, it would have been quite difficult for me to challenge this classic Huaiyang dish with my own knife skills. After all, compared to the strict knife skills requirements of Huaiyang cuisine, I Sichuan cuisine, which is inherited and taught by the family, puts more emphasis on the blending of various flavors.

But now the situation is somewhat different. After merging the blood of the black dragon, my physical fitness has improved by an unknown amount, and my control over my body has also improved greatly after the initial adaptation period. After more than a year of improvement, Xia Yu is sure that he can now challenge this dish that requires extremely high knife skills.

He took out the 'sky kitchen knife' that was as dazzling as a crystal that Ying gave him. After fully soaking the cutting board, kitchen knife and tofu with water, Xia Yu's expression became extremely serious as he focused all his attention on his hands and the tofu on the cutting board. .

Click, click, click... Accompanied by the soft sound of the knife falling on the chopping board, tofu slices as thin as cicada wings appeared neatly on the other end of the blade. Xia Yu, who was concentrating on the operation, immediately attracted Ying's attention. Notice.

This... what kind of sword skill is this! !

As a lover of cooking, when she saw the complete and evenly thick tofu slices, Ying's brain went into a shutdown state on the spot.He carefully used the wind element to hold up a piece of 'tofu paper' and observed it carefully. The tofu piece showed a translucent color under the light, which made Ying look forward to it in addition to admiration.

What kind of cooking should such thin tofu slices be used for?After a brief glance at the operating table, the rest of the raw materials Xia Yu prepared were very simple: mushrooms, green vegetables, and the rich-tasting broth that he had just tasted. These were all the raw materials.

From this point of view, it should be a soup, but the tofu is cut into such thin slices that it will break into pieces as long as the soup base boils a little after putting it in the pot... While Yingying was predicting Xia Yu's cooking, she carefully piled up the tofu slices. Xia Yu began the next operation again. With the precise sound of the knife falling like a marker, the thin tofu slices gradually began to transform into filaments thinner than hair under the sharp blade.

Hello!Stop hitting people!Are you preparing a dish or showing off your knife skills?

Chapter 3: Food Tasting, ‘Albedo’ figured it out

During dinner, Ying, who was sitting on the bench around the dining table, fell into silence while looking at the dishes placed on the dining table.

Although the six dishes were not too much for the number of people approaching ten people, the portions were quite sufficient, especially the large platter of various meats placed in the middle.

The large pork knuckle, which is light brown and somewhat rosy and shiny, is very eye-catching when it is served to the table, vibrating like pudding. The shiny skin is also fried into beautiful tiger patterns. The leather texture, combined with the steaming white smoke and the aroma of meat and spices that filled the entire room, basically focused the attention of everyone present here.

There are also various meats such as pork chops, sliced ​​beef, and duck cut into bite-sized pieces with the same color on the side. The same color means that they should all taste the same, and the only difference is the ingredients themselves.However, the visual impact of such a large plate of meat stacked together in this way cannot be underestimated at all.Just like the two little guys turned from monsters over there, the saliva dripping from the corners of the mouths of Xiao Dulin and Xiao Qi lying beside the table has wetted the edge of the table.

The other thing is the shredded tofu cut by Xia Yu, whom I have been paying attention to just now. This dish is mixed with shredded mushrooms and green vegetables and is presented on the table in the form of soup. The three kinds of filaments are suspended in the translucent glass gravy. The visual effect, which is like a work of art, makes people have to admire the chef's basic skills in cooking this dish.

I don't know how long it takes to practice the knife skills of cutting tofu... Ying, who admired the broth version of Wensi Tofu, immediately gave up the idea of ​​replicating this dish.Well, at least the swordsman Shangying felt that he would never torture himself like this.

Such thin shredded tofu has lost its taste. If you grind the tofu directly with a knife, it will lose its appearance and taste the same!Ying comforted herself in her heart and quickly glanced at the rest of the dishes on the table.

Apart from these two dishes, the rest is relatively simple, two cold side dishes, one seafood and shredded tofu boiled in the first soup, and a large plate of beans cooked with spices. , in terms of variety, it is indeed very rich as a family dinner.

If there is any sense of inconsistency, it's just that the style of tonight's dishes is slightly different from Xia Yu's usual style. Except for the tofu soup and boiled dishes, the appearance is too rough, such as the ones served directly in pots. A large plate of unpackaged meat was served, which was basically no different from eating outdoors.

"Everyone, let's start eating. There is something else that I would like everyone to help with tasting." After greeting Xia Yu, his eyes swept over Ying, Mona and Abedo in turn. "I hope you can help me evaluate the dishes on this table. Except for the cooked Qianzhang shredded silk and tofu soup, how would you evaluate the rest of the dishes if they were used as snacks."

According to Xia Yu's idea, since he accepted Diluc's cooperation agreement, he had to make some food seriously.Therefore, before diluc tastes it tomorrow, it is best for him to collect some other people's opinions.

It's just that the current situation is a bit embarrassing. Among the people present, there are no people who are native-born and suitable for drinking age.Keli, Xiao Dulin and Xiao Qi are not old enough to drink. Ying is an outsider like herself. Mona also settled in Mondstadt later. As for 'Albedo', who he had always considered a failure, in the past Having basically stayed in the Longji Snow Mountain, he might not be able to give any suggestions that suit local tastes.

Then it can only be collected by multiple people. From the perspective of 'popular taste', although there are not many people present, it is enough to collect a lot of information by yourself.

"An appetizer? Oh, that's it!" After learning Xia Yu's intentions, Ying immediately understood. She had become a food taster. In theory, she should have been notified in advance of such a thing.

But considering the level of Xia Yu's cooking, these seem to have become redundant questions. For example, now... looking at the two little guys who separated half of the soft pork knuckle in two or three times, they shouted loudly The shouting Ying quickly joined the queue to grab food.

"Xiao Dulin, Xiao Qi, you two leave some for us!" He picked up a large spoon and cut off a piece of pork knuckle and put it into his bowl. He picked up the chopsticks and took the whole piece into his mouth along the edge of the bowl. Ying inside narrowed her eyes in enjoyment.

It’s so delicious!Let’s first evaluate the taste. The pre-fried pork knuckle should be slowly dipped and deep-fried, and then the skin should be blanched with very high oil temperature. The meat skin, which is the essence, tastes soft and sticky. The texture of the meat is great, and the folded part is also filled with the fragrant soup, and the fat part under the skin is not greasy at all. With the inner layer, it only takes one sip to turn it into thin strips of meat, which is oily. The juicy taste directly brings happiness to the top.

Next is the unique taste. The pork knuckle with soy sauce as the basic flavor has a light wine aroma and also has the taste of spices that you can’t describe at all. It does not overwhelm the original aroma of high-quality pork but also retains the flavor. It makes the aftertaste when chewing richer and makes people never get tired of eating it.

The four or five pork knuckles were quickly eaten by everyone present. After the first round of fighting, the rice had been completely eaten with the meat and side dishes. Even the rice bowls were eaten by the braised soup. The scent of the food was licked away, and Ying, who had ushered in the intermission, breathed a sigh of satisfaction. She glanced at the various side dishes left on the table, and then she had an idea and looked at where Xia Yu was.

"Xia Yu, since this is an appetizer, just eating is definitely not enough. Naturally, there needs to be some wine... Only then can we give a better evaluation, right?" Madly gestured to Mona and Albedo's blond hair. There was a cunning look in the girl's eyes. However, before she could continue her words, three large jars of different types of wine were already placed on the dining table by Xia Yu.

"I knew you would definitely say that. The wine, beer and fruit wine I bought at Angel's Gift Tavern this afternoon have all been prepared for you." After taking out three wine glasses and handing them to several people present, there was already After preparing, Xia Yu took some juice and put it in front of the little guys.Half an hour later, the empty plates and empty wine glasses on the clean dining table had already told Xia Yu the success of this trial pairing.

"It's a very interesting taste test. These boiled and flavorful beans should be good even when eaten alone. Pairing them with fruit wine makes the flavor of the wine more interesting." Mona, whose face was slightly red, took the lead. Expressing his opinion, he smacked his lips and seemed to be missing the various beans that became more and more fragrant the more he chewed them. Strange thoughts appeared in the girl's mind.

Why don't you learn from Xia Yu how to prepare this kind of soup base for boiled beans, so that you can take one or two to lighten your mood when you are doing divination and stargazing upstairs or writing a weekly magazine? The Eye of God is also water-based. After eating, you can summon some water element to wash your hands. It seems pretty good?

"I think so too. These side dishes and wine pairings should be very popular in the relatively hot summer. Sales should drop in winter, but the sales of meat should not be affected. ." Compared to Mona, who is thinking about how to further refine her life, Albedo gave a rather pertinent opinion.

Compared with the two of them, Ying, who was completely drunk, used practical actions to show the success of tonight's trial dishes. "It's delicious, hey! It's delicious, burp~" The red-faced blonde girl lying on the sofa looked like she had drunk a lot. Ying kept making praises, which made Paimon beside her look helpless. expression.

I originally said I came to Xia Yu to ask what kind of festival the Wine Festival is, but why did I end up here drunk?With some contempt, he glanced at Ying, who was completely unable to move. The little white-haired guy let out a long sigh and floated in front of Xia Yu.

"Xia Yu, you should have asked what kind of festival the Return of the Wind Wine Festival is. Can you tell me about it? I can explain it to this drunkard tomorrow."

"Returning to the Wind Wine Festival." Paimon looked at the 'unreliable' Ying with a disgusted expression that amused Xia Yu. While clearing the table, Xia Yu continued: "According to the official explanation given by Mondstadt , the wine brewed last year to celebrate the autumn harvest made Barbatos appear again in the city of Mondstadt. In order to express the meaning of 'the return of the wind god,' the Return of the Wind Wine Festival is also used to commemorate relatives who have traveled far away."

"But, you also know what kind of character Wendy is, so..." Paimon couldn't help but start nodding frequently when Xia Yu complained about it.

As if he had become accustomed to this kind of situation, Paimon, who felt a little exhausted, said, "Xia Yu, you are right. The singer must have simply asked about the smell of the wine and became greedy. Then he was beaten by the Mondstadt people. You are just thinking too much. Although the salesperson is indeed quite reliable when it comes to serious matters, being greedy and drinking is obviously not within this category."

"But thank you Xia Yu. First, let us have a good rest, and then we had so much delicious food at night... If you need any help from us, just ask." The little guy said while turning the pages. After finding Ying's package and taking out the Dust Song Pot, Paimon tried to hold Ying up and found that his little arms and legs couldn't compete with Ying who was still drunk.

"Xia Yu, help me, help me bring Ying into the Chenge Pot."

————————————————————————

Dinner time was over, and the stewed vegetables to be presented to Diluc tomorrow continued to be soaked in the pot. After cleaning the kitchen, Xia Yu stretched greatly, then turned his head to look at the setting sun outside the window.

Tomorrow is the day of the Guifeng Wine Festival. To me, the meaning of this festival seems to be just to experience the cheerful atmosphere of the festival.Generally speaking, the sense of belonging is still too little.

But since it is the Wine Festival, tomorrow you should be able to see many wine bars that are not easy to see on weekdays. Although I don't like drinking very much, it would be good if I see wine that can be used for cooking.How about trying to make some desserts with wine?After thinking briefly, Xia Yu gave up the idea.

As for the reason, it is very simple. Let’s not talk about anything else. Just the active character of Xiao Keli, who often comes to visit her home, coupled with Xiao Dulin and Xiao Qi, it is extremely easy for a well-made dessert with wine to fall into this trap. In the belly of three little guys.

If the drunk little Keli was seen by Qin when she returned to the Knights of the West Wind, wouldn't she have to be lectured as well?After shaking his head and throwing the idea of ​​making desserts with wine out of his mind, Albedo standing at the door of the kitchen caught Xia Yu's attention.

"Xia Yu, are you free tomorrow afternoon? I want you to do me a favor."

Abedo who spoke up aroused Xia Yu's curiosity. After using Abedo's identity to live in and help out in his own home, 'Abedo', who once regarded himself as a failure, besides helping him a lot, spent most of his time. Being addicted to the research of alchemy, it is really rare to ask for help like today.

After all, the main direction of his research is on cooking-related contents, which really has nothing to do with his main focus on alchemy.

"Tell me about it. If there is anything I can help with, just tell me." Xia Yu agreed to Albedo's request for help without hesitation. After all, he did help him after coming to Mondstadt. A lot of busy work, such as the maintenance of the 'refrigerator' and the maintenance of various magic stone furniture, are basically all done by Abedo himself.

"Xia Yu, you are one of the people who knows what the relationship between me and Albedo is. In fact, after I came to Mondstadt and put aside my jealousy and hatred for a while, I thought about it a lot. What you said at the beginning was indeed correct. I and I He is two different individuals, and he should try to find a new meaning of survival just like the new little Dulin."

"Then when I observed Timaeus and Sugar, I came to a new understanding. Since people's talents are different, if we really follow the 'failure' conclusion of the mother who created us, this Can all but the best people in the world be classified as failures?"

"Obviously, this conclusion is ridiculous." At this point, Abedo shrugged somewhat self-deprecatingly. "So, with the joint efforts of you two, I have completely put my mind aside. Isn't it just to live as an independent individual? Even if it is to witness the growth of little Dulin, I can't continue to live as before. What's more, my alchemy is far superior to that of others in Mondstadt."

"Well, it's best if you can look away." Xia Yu, who was pleased with Abedo's open-mindedness at the moment, nodded, and then continued to ask: "Then tell me, what do you want to do? You want my help."

"Isn't it that guy Abedo? I didn't expect that in some aspects he is more accepting of death than me." When mentioning Abedo as a successful work, 'Abedo' seemed a little helpless. "According to the agreement I made with him, when I figured it out, I would not continue to take over his life in Mondstadt as him, but would exist as a new individual. But I didn't expect that he would be in trouble instead. .”

"When I took little Dulin to look for him in Longji Snow Mountain this morning, he actually said, 'It will be very troublesome to explain this matter to everyone in Mondstadt'! Come on, it's okay for two cute-looking little guys to play in the city. Well, what’s the problem with two ‘Albedos’ appearing in Mondstadt?”

In the early morning, after formally signing a contract with Diluc and sending away the rich man from Mondstadt, Xia Yu's mind returned to what Albedo mentioned last night.

According to him, the agreement between Albedo, who is a perfect work, and him is to temporarily lend his identity to him to live in Mondney, and after he feels relieved, everyone can discuss what to do in the future.

As a result, now, 'Albedo', who brought his younger sister, Little Dulin, has taken up the responsibility of a technician here, and by the way, he has picked up some livelihood opportunities in Mondstadt that require alchemy, and then helped Mona demonstrate her academic skills. The knowledge related to alchemy in the report, after enriching his life and finding a certain place to belong to, 'Abedo' took Xiao Dulin and Xiao Qi to visit Abedo in Longji Snow Mountain yesterday, hoping that he would also Just go back to Mondstadt.

After all, Abedo stayed in Longji Snow Mountain mainly for two reasons. One of them was that he was afraid that as a perfect work of alchemy, he would go crazy like Dulin at some point because of the control of his mother and hurt the people of Mondstadt. , and the second is the extremely delicate location of the camp he built: down there is Du Lin's burial place, and up there is himself living in a higher position. If there is no connection at all, I'm sure No one believes it.

But what now?In the eyes of 'Albedo', these two problems actually don't matter anymore. First of all, little Dulin has been resurrected!There was no problem for her little transformed form to let her play around in Mondstadt, and she thought about it.As for the issue of safety, that's not even a problem.

Even if Albedo is considered a perfect work by their 'mother' Reindot, can it be compared in terms of strength with the two descendants of the devil in the Dust Song Pot?

If in the past, only Tevalin, the descendant of the Wind God, had fought, it might have caused some damage to the buildings in Mondstadt.But what now?There is another Ruotuo Dragon King in the pot. This guy who is comparable in strength to the ruler of Liyue can really do both offense and defense. Want to make waves?That's no chance at all.

"Moreover, didn't Alice, who is also from the Witch Church, entrust Albedo to take care of her daughter Keli when she left Mondstadt? Now it's a bit too much for me to take care of three little ones every day! Let him come back and do what he should do!" Xia Yu still remembers the slightly collapsed expression on 'Abedo's face when he said these words last night.

There was no way, even though it was not Keli's intention, the little guy was definitely the trouble maker in Mondstadt. It was not an easy task to take good care of Keli, who fell in love with bomb research under the influence of her mother.

"Hey, good morning." Xia Yu smiled slightly as he greeted Albedo, who also woke up early. Although he already knew that the other party wanted him to help convince Albedo, who was still in the snowy mountains, he would appear in Mondstadt openly on weekdays, but There is still one point that puzzles Xia Yu about the whole operation: if Abedo is determined to stay in Longji Snow Mountain, then he doesn't seem to be able to help...

Because the relationship between himself and Abedo is actually just a casual acquaintance, at most, counting the initial production of alchemy items and the relationship between Keli and Little Dulin, they can be called acquaintances.Why are you so sure that you can get Abedo back?

Thinking of this, Xia Yu suggested to 'Albedo': "I say, how about we call Keli and Xiao Dulin too? Anyway, we have to tell them this fact sooner or later. In addition, if we really find him, If so, have you decided what your name should be?"

In Xia Yu's view, this is a very real problem. Before that, Albedo lent his identity to 'Albedo' so that he could experience life in Mondstadt and find the meaning of his existence. If Albedo If he is really moved, then the person standing next to him must have his own name after all, so that it is convenient to call them both.

"Name?" When the name was mentioned, 'Albedo''s expression looked a little strange, as if he had already expected to encounter this problem. 'Albedo', who had an expression that didn't care much, shrugged his shoulders first, and then Responded: "I have already considered this issue, since my mother thinks I am a fake, and my personal ability is indeed a little worse than him..."

"Then it's okay to have a shorter name than him. Just call me Abeixi from now on."

......

"are you serious?"

"A name is just a pronoun, so it doesn't matter if it's a little more simple or a little more complicated."

Compared to Xia Yu, who didn't know how to complain about this "not so good" name, Abei Xi, who gave herself a new name, didn't care much. After Xia Yu's expression returned to normal, Abei Xi began to He explained the reason for letting Xia Yu go.

"Xia Yu, do you know? Because I have imitated and observed Abedo for a long time, I know very well what kind of character he is. Abedo is the kind of person who clearly distinguishes between things that he is interested in and those that are not. people."

"Have you ever seen Albedo's paintings? Whatever he was interested in, he would always describe it in great detail when painting, and even beautify it with his way of thinking. And those things that he felt he couldn't mention What about interesting things? The person may be just a stick figure, and the background may be just a few random strokes."

Following Abeixi's prompt, Xia Yu immediately remembered the paintings that Abedo had placed in the camp in Longji Snow Mountain when he followed Shatang to the camp very early. One of them stood on the edge of the cliff outside the camp and looked towards Dulin at the foot of the mountain. The painting of the skeleton indeed has the artistic beauty of combining photos and oil paintings, and Dulin's skeleton was also modified according to his ideas.

In contrast, there is an extremely tiny blue dot in the picture. At first, I thought it was Albedo who accidentally sprinkled the paint on it. However, when I asked the other party, I found out the result: it represented the color in Dulin. Members of the Fools advance team who are conducting exploration and excavation missions near the wreckage...

Hmm... If you think about it, it's really not wrong at all to come to Abedo. This is indeed very Abedo's style.Thinking of this, Xia Yu continued to ask: "Since Abedo is such an independent person, why do you think Abedo will listen to my opinion?"

"This has to talk about the special relationship between us, because we are both the creations of our mother Reindot, and after having emotions, we naturally have our own way of thinking. The relationship between me, Albedo and Dulin According to human interpretation, the relationship should be similar to that of brothers and sisters. Regardless of the relationship, our identity is almost like this."

"After Xia Yu absorbed part of Du Lin's essence and blood, you became one of our recognized members. That's why Abedo asked me to come to you in his capacity to assist with some daily work. You should understand this. So, if little Dulin wants to go, you can take her with you. As for the little elf girl, wait until Albedo agrees with my idea before telling her."

So that's it. After hearing this, Xia Yu finally understood the reason.In this case, because the news also needs to be hidden, Ying cannot be allowed to take herself and Abbexi to Longji Snow Mountain. It will take more than half a day to rush from Mondstadt to Abedo's camp in Longji Snow Mountain and back even if it is faster. Time and time planning must also be taken into consideration.Thinking of this, Xia Yu asked: "How soon will we set off?"

"Today is the beginning of the festival. A day or so should be enough to visit the celebrations in Mondstadt. If possible, let's do it after noon today or early tomorrow morning." After agreeing on the time, he seemed to have remembered something. Abeixi said: "By the way, Xia Yu, there is something I want you to see. It's in the garden near the flower bed."

"Oh?" Abei Xi, who was leading the way in front, aroused Xia Yu's curiosity. Although he didn't pay much attention to it in the past two or three days, apart from some common little monsters and flowers playing in the garden, there were at most occasional There shouldn't be anything special about the wild wind slime that came to play in the small courtyard.

But now Abeixi told herself that there was something worthy of her attention in the garden. What could it be?Xia Yu, who followed Abeixi to the flower bed, was attracted by a small crystal-blue and translucent flower planted in it with a hint of dark red.

"Is this... a cheating flower?" Since he had indeed found several cheating flowers, Xia Yu was very familiar with this kind of monster that could disguise itself.Generally speaking, Luo Hua, who knows how to pretend to hunt, is considered a relatively smart existence among monsters.

So far, Xia Yu remembers that the cheating flowers he has seen have three elemental attributes: ice, thunder, and fire, and the colors of their bodies are also close to their respective elemental attributes. This is the first time that this little guy has such a color. See.

"That's right, it's just a cheating flower. Come out." At Abexi's call, a bright blue cheating flower with dark red lines on its body emerged from the ground, as if it was just waking up. The little guy, looking left and right, finally locked his eyes on Xia Yu, then narrowed his eyes happily and gently waved the long leaves like hands towards Xia Yu.

"These are the evolved cheating flowers that I borrowed from the crimson chalcedony in the Longji Snow Mountain. They are much smarter than ordinary cheating flowers, and they also have some special abilities." As Abeixi introduced it, , who seemed to have understood, Lianghuahua also started to act. In Xia Yu's surprised eyes, a boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old appeared where Lihuahua had been.

"Hello, Brother Xia Yu!" The young man who greeted him looked very excited. He looked full of energy and looked like a passionate young man.

this? ?What's happening here! ?

The huge change made Xia Yu stay in place. He glanced at the boy who gave him a thumbs up. Xia Yu's eyes turned to Abei Xi who was aside.

"Abeixi, what are you..."

"Crimson chalcedony is a unique life crystal produced by the dragon's blood and the special energy of Longji Snow Mountain when Du Lin fell in Longji Snow Mountain. It is an excellent nutrient for plants, and it is what I have been studying in recent years. Things." Looking at Xia Yu's obviously unresponsive look, Abeixi began to explain.

"Because Liar Flower is considered a relatively smart type among plant monsters, I used some unique alchemical techniques to purify the energy in the crimson chalcedony, and then screened out the 'particularly smart' type. The cheating flowers will absorb them in stages. After a period of time, the abilities of the growing cheating flowers will be improved, and their original imitative characteristics will also evolve. It is no longer possible to act in human appearance like they are now. Any questions."

"Due to the blood of Dulin in the crimson chalcedony, after growing up, Liarhua will be particularly close to people with the same bloodline, such as Xia Yu, you and little Dulin."

This... Xia Yu reacted after listening to Abeixi's explanation. No wonder this young man transformed from a cheater calls himself big brother.However, Abeixi should not be doing this simply to show off his achievements in alchemy, so what is his purpose?

"Brother, the situation is like this." This time, it was the young man who turned into a cheater who spoke first. "My main role is to help you with your stall, and also take care of some household cleaning and furniture maintenance. Of course, it would be better if you could make something delicious in return."

"That's right, because what do people in Mondstadt say? They are too free... Because the stall you opened, Xia Yu, is too close to the angel's gift, so... I plan to create three more of these in the future. Cheating and cheating should be enough to handle all the manpower needed in daily situations.”

During the explanations given by Abexi and You lie to liehua in turn, Xia Yu finally understood the reason why Abexi did what she did.After all, his stall is too close to the best tavern in Mondstadt. The workers he hired on weekdays would go to the bar without knowing when. Now that he has a stable manpower, he can maintain the home environment and the stall. It's really much easier to take care of there.

After all, he is a high-level liar and has a strong learning ability.

"No problem, then after lunch time, let's consider whether to go to Longji Snow Mountain today or tomorrow based on the festival activities."

————————————————————————

After bidding farewell to Abesi and the boy who had transformed from Lianglihua, he came to the city of Mondstadt. Because it was a festival, even in the early morning, the streets were already bustling with people.

As the first stop of the festival trip, and according to the plan of the journey to the main entrance, the first stop is of course the Angel's Gift Bar.After all, the name sounds like a wine-themed festival, so Angel’s Gift should have some special activities today.Having made up his mind, Xia Yu opened the door of the bar and walked in.
