The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

"Gan Yu, I've worked so hard for you these past three days." Ningguang cleverly shifted the focus of the conversation to Xia Yu, and then continued: "Just now, Mr. Xia was talking to Dragon King Ruotuo. The topic of half-immortal beasts has been mentioned before. Therefore, Dragon King Ruotuo recommended you to Mr. Xia. You must be very tired Gan Yu after not having rest for many days, so I will let Baishi and the others take over your work for a day. "

"It's like this. Qiqi from Bubulu is looking for a semi-immortal beast named Coconut Sheep. I asked Dragon King Ruotuo about it, and he said that the only semi-immortal he knew in his mind was you..." Xia Yu, who was explaining the reason, suddenly noticed that Gan Yu's face suddenly turned red. "Um...Miss Gan Yu, are you feeling uncomfortable in any way?"

"Choke...choke the sheep?" Gan Yu's face became extremely embarrassed as he repeated this word. "Mr. Xia Yu, did Master say something about the original things in those few months?"

At this moment, Xia Yu understood why Gan Yu seemed so embarrassed and nervous.Although Xia Yu didn't want to admit it, once the seemingly arrogant Liuyun Jiufeng Zhenjun recognized someone, his talkative nature would explode.

What would a fairy who needs to find a way to chat with himself to relieve boredom do when he meets someone he knows well?Naturally, she would tell her everything that she had found interesting over the past thousand years.Broadly speaking, this can indeed provide a more intuitive understanding of Liyue's history, but the children of the Xian family who were brought up by her suffered a disaster.

Especially Gan Yu, who has the blood of a semi-immortal. Compared with Shen He, who has only been in Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun's residence for ten years, the various dark histories left behind by the millennium of staying together can be said to be countless.

Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng once mentioned that when he was a child, Ganyu, who had not yet transformed into a human form, was fluffy and chubby. If he accidentally fell on the way back to the immortal mansion, he would be unable to stop and grunt like a car. Rolled down to the bottom of the mountain.Due to the furry appearance of the little unicorn with half-immortal bloodline and the two small horns on its head, this image is very easy to associate with an equally docile animal like a lamb.

Another incident made Gan Yu even more embarrassed. In the past demon war, Gan Yu was accidentally eaten alive by the hostile demon god. The Liyue immortals who were busy rescuing were surprised to find that the food was eaten alive. For some reason, the Demon God's movements during battle became extremely unsmooth.After easily knocking down the enemy, many immortals searched hard and finally found Gan Yu stuck in the opponent's esophagus.

This has also become one of the dark histories that Gan Yu absolutely does not want to be mentioned...

Coconut sheep, choking sheep...it turns out that this is the reason why Gan Yu feels embarrassed.Really not wanting to further irritate this gentle and elegant half-immortal, Xia Yu, who shook his head in denial, decided to let the matter go.

"This has never happened before. I have only stayed at Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng's residence for about two months, and because I need to cook and cultivate my character, I don't have much time to communicate with the Immortal Family. Furthermore, because Shen He is still practicing in the mansion, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun talked about things that happened to Shen He besides Liyue's past..."

"So that's it." Perhaps it was because of the excessive mental stress that it was difficult to tell whether Xia Yu's words were true or false. The temporary relief of the crisis finally made the half-immortal girl breathe a sigh of relief.At the same time, Gan Yu also began to sympathize with this human junior sister whom he had never met before.

"Then, without further ado, let's set off."

————————————————————————

"Actually, I'm not the only one with half-immortal blood." On the way to Bubu Lu, it seemed that because Xia Yu's dragon bloodline was in a similar situation to his own after merging with human beings, he felt that he had found the sweetness of similar people compared to pure humans. Yu became much more talkative.

"Ruotuo Dragon King most likely failed to understand the changes in Liyue Port over the past thousand years because he was sealed. There are also other immortals and human descendants of semi-immortal blood living in Liyue Port. For example, Yan Fei, who works as a lawyer in Liyue Port, is also a semi-immortal."

lawyer?Xia Yu, who was familiar with this profession, was a little surprised at first, but after considering the situation in Liyue Port, Xia Yu could understand the importance of the profession of lawyer to Liyue.

Unlike Mondstadt, who advocates freedom, for the people of Liyue who follow contracts in everything, what they trust most is the contract rules set by the King of Rocks over the past thousand years.Although there will be slight changes in laws and commerce every year after Emperor Yanwang imparts divine will in the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, nothing can shake the contract as the main body.

With a contract, there are naturally people who will exploit loopholes in laws and contracts for profit. Contracts that hide loopholes such as written conditions in various forms will cause unpredictable losses if they are signed by ordinary people. At this time, the importance of a lawyer who is proficient in the law is reflected.

"I see. It's just that Dragon King Ruotuo and I had a subjective impression. I will apologize for disturbing Gan Yu's work in the future."

"It's okay. In fact, I have the habit of taking a rest at noon every day. Going out for a walk at this time can also be regarded as a kind of rest."

While chatting, the two of them unknowingly arrived at Bubu Lu, the largest pharmacy in Liyue. They walked into the lobby and looked at Qiqi, who was standing in front of the counter with eyes full of expectation. Xia Yu asked, "Qiqi, I brought the semi-immortal Gan Yu, is the coconut sheep you are looking for Gan Yu?"

After staring at Gan Yu for a long time, Qi Qi still shook his head. The slightly disappointed little guy said: "No, it's not Gan Yu." While Qi Qi denied it in a low voice, he went to the south of Tianheng Mountain to search. Zhongli, Ying and his party also returned to Bubulu.

"I'm sorry, we couldn't complete the contract." Zhongli, who was usually calm, showed a rare expression of confusion and confusion on his face. "We really haven't been able to find any clues about the semi-immortal beast named Coconut Sheep."

"Ah..." The outcome in which neither party achieved any effective results made the look of expectation in Qiqi's eyes fade away. The little guy with his head lowered looked as pitiful as an abandoned little animal. "I'm very disappointed. Although I had guessed that this might be the case, I'm still very disappointed..." Qiqi's distressed look, as if he had been bullied, made everyone present feel at a loss.

"Qiqi." Xia Yu, who was squatting down, greeted the little guy who was still in a depressed state. After seeing Qiqi's eyes turned to him, Xia Yu asked softly: "Since you have never heard of it, and you have never seen it. But then, how do you know about a semi-immortal beast like the Coconut Sheep?"

"Because the milk of coconut goats tastes better than ordinary goat's milk, they must be semi-immortal beasts." Qiqi explained the reason, which made Gan Yu's face turn slightly red and also made Xia Yu feel more... Awkward.

If it wasn't for Zhong Li's sudden arousal of competitiveness, he should have asked Qiqi more, so that such an embarrassing scene wouldn't have happened.However, now that we know that the item we need to search for is a drink, the next work will naturally be much easier.

The white drink tastes better than goat's milk, which means that the word "sheep" was most likely added by Qiqi himself.

The familiar feeling of a white drink with coconut in its name immediately reminded Xia Yu of a drink that actually tasted pretty good. "Qiqi, are you looking for coconut milk?"

Looking at the people who were waiting for her quietly, Qiqi lowered her head in embarrassment, and then whispered: "I'm sorry, my memory is not good, I wrote down the name of that kind of breast, let me, Look for..."

Qiqi, who was rummaging around on the table beside him, opened his notepad after seeing it. After flipping through several pages, Qiqi looked at Xia Yu with eyes full of admiration.

"Yes, this is it, coconut milk, delicious milk, ice cold." Qiqi's eyes were shining with a dazzling light with a bit of excitement in his tone, but his cute appearance made Zhongli beside him fall in love. In silence.

"Alas...I..." Zhongli sighed, never having considered such a result.

Who is most familiar with the land of Liyue, it is himself as the Yanwang Emperor. Therefore, when he heard the word coconut sheep and heard Qiqi talk about it being a semi-immortal beast, Zhongli felt that his The competitive spirit was aroused.

There is actually a half-immortal beast that he doesn't know about?Although he had considered the possibility of the intelligence being wrong, Qiqi was just a zombie. With the mode of driving his actions through orders, it was difficult for even Zhongli to determine whether the little guy's words were true or false.In addition, Qiqi accurately stated the existence of the final machine.The common result of all kinds of chances and coincidences is the huge Oolong incident at the moment.

"Where does this unprovoked desire to win come from..."

Chapter 84 Bill sent to Northland Bank!

Now that we know what Qiqi wants is coconut milk, it’s easy to do.If you have drunk it before, it means it should be sold in Liyue Port. "Mr. Zhongli, do you know where coconut milk is sold in Liyue Port? As long as the coconut milk is handed over to Qiqi, the contract is completed, right?" Xia Yu asked Zhongli and found that Zhongli, who raised his head slightly, seemed to be confused. Didn't listen to his own words.

Zhongli was... distracted?

"Hahahaha, it's so funny, Coconut Sheep, Coconut Sheep." Outside the door, the cheerful young man's laughter reached everyone's ears.Turning his head to look, a brown-haired man wearing dark gray clothes appeared in Xia Yu's field of vision.There were even a few tears in the corners of his eyes as he held on to the threshold and laughed slightly.Obviously, he must have listened to all the conversations that he and his party had with Qiqi just now.

"I didn't expect that you would be fooled by such a thing." The young man whose expression softened slightly walked into Bu Bu Lu. He looked around the medical center but did not find the store manager. He turned to Ying and Paimon, and then said: "It really made me laugh to the point of tears. For the sake of making me so happy, just leave the payment and problem solving to me."

This should be the 'Young Master', the executive of the Fools mentioned by Ying and Paimeng, and one of the main targets suspected by the Seven Stars of Liyue.When he felt the other party's eyes sizing him up, Xia Yu also fixed his gaze on the 'gongzi'.

"Hello, I am the Young Master, the executive officer of Foolish People. As for my real name, it is inconvenient to tell me due to my position. Please be patient... I wonder who you are, sir?" The Young Master, who announced his family name without any concealment. The hearty smile on his face made it difficult for Xia Yu to connect him with the murderer of the assassination case of King Yan.

"Hello, Mr. Young Master, I am Xia Yu, a friend of Yinghe and Paimeng. I came here just to learn and gain some knowledge." After introducing himself, Xia Yu continued to say while looking at the slightly doubtful look of the other party. To: "Because I am a chef by profession, traveling to various places to find local specialties is my travel goal."

This tall guy is just a chef?After listening to Xia Yu's introduction, Dadalia, who borrowed the title "Master" and walked with Liyue Port, also showed a surprised expression.With years of combat experience, Dadalia could easily judge that in terms of physical fitness, the man who claimed to be a chef and was traveling with Gan Yu, the secretary-general of Liyue Seven Stars, far surpassed him. .

But if it really comes to a fight, I will be the one with the absolute advantage. It's a pity that I have such a physique...

"You were talking about coconut milk just now. The Winter Country can provide Bubulu with a stable coconut milk supply channel. We are just waiting for someone from Bubulu who can speak volumes to come back..." Just as Dadali When Ya said this, the sound of movement outside Bubulu attracted everyone's attention.

"Well, thank you sir and a few others for your help to Qiqi." During the conversation and laughter, another man with long dark green hair came to Bubu Lu.The green-haired man with a smile on his face had a small white snake wrapped around his neck.With a gentle temperament, he asked: "I am Bai Shu, a doctor in Bu Bu Lu. I wonder if the few people who came to Bu Bu Lu want to ask for medical treatment, get medicine, or have other matters?"

"Ah, you must be Baizhu, the boss of Bu Bu Lu." The young master who came forward took the lead and took over the conversation. "Just now outside the store, I heard Mr. Zhongli and the others mention that they need eternal life incense. I don't know how much the eternal life incense costs, so I'll pay for it instead."

"Is it the high-quality eternal life incense used in rituals to send to immortals?" Baizhu, who seemed to know the characteristics of this eternal life incense very well, wore a standard businessman's smile and continued: "This product is naturally from Bu Bu Lu. If there are, let’s sell it to you at a cheaper price, 300 million molas is enough.”

The moment Baizhu reported the price, the entire Bubulu fell into silence.

"How many...?"

"Three million molas, an absolutely preferential price."

The conversation between the two stunned the blond girl and Paimon. 300 million Mora, how many commissions from the Adventurers Association would it take for me to collect this amount of money... It turns out that the ritual of sending immortals cost so much Mora.Ying, who couldn't accept it for a moment, looked at Zhongli who was lowering his head and thinking deeply about something.

Since he didn't have enough money, it was even more impossible for Zhongli, who basically didn't take Maura with him when he went out, to afford it. "Zhongli, what are you thinking about now?" Ying, who felt a little curious, opened her mouth and found that Zhongli, who had come back to his senses, nodded first.

"Based on common rationality, the high-quality eternal incense is indeed worth 300 million molas. In this case, we really have to trouble Mr. Gongzi to help us make the advance payment." The word "no money" was revealed in the words Zhongli, who looked so confident and confident, made Ying not know what to say for a moment.

Mr. Zhongli from the Hall of Rebirth and the 'gongzi' of the fools are really willing to fight and suffer...

————————————————————————

He bought the longevity incense at a special price of 290 million [-] morats, and advanced a large sum of money for the subsequent customized kite, which was almost like giving away money. In his behavior, the young master who was willing to be used as a wallet left an even worse impression on Xia Yu. It's suspicious.

No matter how wealthy Beiguo Bank is, the young master who serves as the executive officer of the Fools is still very wealthy.Under normal circumstances, no one would do the young master's behavior of lavishly distributing wealth.In other words, behind this capricious payment, this foolish executive also had other agendas.

The matter involves the ceremony of sending immortals, the Kingdom of Winter and the ancestral dharma transformation of Emperor Yanwang. From this, it can be judged that what the young master who has been paying for and preparing for the ceremony of sending immortals must be Emperor Yanwang. The heart of God.

However, unless the other party is also pretending to be crazy, Xia Yu feels that these are the only doubts that the young master has.

The result confirmed by many immortals is that the energy and aura of the emperor's ancestor Fashu is much weaker than that of the Rock King. In other words, he should not be aware of the fact that the heart of God has been taken away. He covets the gods. He is a member of the heart, but he should not be the mastermind behind the scenes.

Even the executive officer of Fools has become a clown in the plan. Who is the force behind this that has not yet surfaced?Compared with the situation in Mondstadt, Liyue's situation is much more complicated...

It is better to tell Ning Guang, who has been preparing for the whole process, the important information first, so as to ensure that the subsequent actions are foolproof.

Ying and Zhongli, who went to retrieve the custom-made kite, were temporarily separated. Gan Yu, who remained silent after walking out of Bubu Lu, made Xia Yu who was traveling with her feel extremely embarrassed.

"Miss Gan Yu, I'm really sorry." Xia Yu, who was walking on the road to Yujingtai with Gan Yu, looked extremely embarrassed. The fact that the coconut goat that Qiqi needed turned out to be coconut milk made Xia Yu feel like he was It's like deliberately threatening the other party.

"It's nothing, because no one would have thought that what Qiqi needs is coconut milk." Although he still blushed a little, Gan Yu's expression improved significantly compared to when he was in Bubu Lu Nei.The premature end of the matter made Gan Yu, who was not working for the time being, look confused for a while. The distracted half-unicorn girl could not escape Xia Yu's eyes.

"Miss Gan Yu? Gan Yu..." Looking at Gan Yu who was pulled back by his own voice, Xia Yu asked softly: "I wonder what Miss Gan Yu is worried about?"

"I'm fine." Gan Yu answered and shook her head first. Her expression revealed a bit of complexity as she continued: "It's just that after working long hours for many years, I don't know what to do now that I'm free." Already..."

Although the busy Liyue Port is full of people coming and going, for some reason, Xia Yu always feels that the eyes of Gan Yu who are watching the panoramic view of Liyue Port are full of complex emotions related to loneliness and contradiction, as if I am just a spectator passing by Liyue Port.

Is it because of this...?After noticing the double horns on Gan Yu's head, Xia Yu could roughly guess what Gan Yu was struggling with at the moment.

Although the establishment of Liyue Port is inseparable from Emperor Yanwang and the immortals, although the development of Liyue Port is guided by Emperor Yanwang, and the joint efforts of Qixing and Ganyu are inseparable, in the final analysis, Liyue Port is still a A port and trading city dominated by humans.

For Gan Yu, the biggest source of motivation to be able to work in this vast sea of ​​people should be the Emperor Yanwang who signed a contract with her more than 3000 years ago.After witnessing the preparations for the immortal ceremony, a half-immortal person as smart as Gan Yu more or less understood that the news of the emperor's assassination was probably not a rumor.

The reason that has always been the main driving force of work has disappeared, and the feeling of emptiness will inevitably make Gan Yu think about this issue: Is Liyue Port, where humans are the main body, really suitable for me?

This is a result that takes time to think about...

After parting ways with Gan Yu, Xia Yu came to Yujing Terrace and took the stone steps back to Qunyu Pavilion. He found that the golden beef shortbread bag he had handed to the gatekeeper in Qianyan Army uniform of Qunyu Pavilion in the morning had been tampered with. It was placed on a stone table for open-air resting. The four chefs sitting around the stone table were each holding a piece of cut beef cake and observing it carefully.

"Oh, little brother, you are finally back!" The four chefs who saw him arriving looked extremely excited.

"I wonder if you, little brother, can teach us the secret of making this beef shortbread. Although we have made it many times according to the same pattern, in terms of preserving the gravy... of course we will not let you suffer any loss. "The chef who said this took out a carefully bound recipe book from the side.

"In exchange, we will also guide you to learn one of the dishes in this cookbook that you like. How about this deal?"

Chapter 85 Cooking exchange, Ying’s regret

Trading beef patties for a featured recipe from Liyue?This is an extremely cost-effective deal.After taking the recipe from the other party, Xia Yu, who flipped through the recipe, was sure of one thing: this Liyue cuisine should be the most similar to the cuisine he originally learned.

The refreshing and fragrant Kousansi, which is steamed with ham, mushrooms and bamboo shoots and then topped with broth. The Tianshu Pork, which is very similar to the braised pork, has some changes due to geographical conditions. It is also made with the same high-value and fragrant ingredients as Buddha Jumping Over the Wall. The compelling fairy jumps over the wall.

The entire recipe is recorded with the essence of licai and yucai, especially the key parts of the process, and there are notes from the chefs. In order to avoid the suspicion of stealing from the chef, I briefly browsed through this detailed recipe, and then A doubt appeared in Xia Yu's mind.

After handing the recipe back to the extremely middle-aged chef, Xia Yu asked: "Several chefs... the food on this recipe should be several levels higher than my golden beef patties. Why did you think of it?" How about using these exquisite cooking methods to make a snack with me?"

"And this Li Cai and Yue Cai, if I remember correctly, aren't the two factions in Liyue Port going to fight? Why is this recipe..." Xia Yu asked the four chefs, but I found that the other party's expression became extremely strange.

"Isn't this because, little brother, you made Zhenhai breakfast for him in the morning? Zhenhai didn't eat it because of the rules of Qunyu Pavilion. Instead, it was handed over to Lord Ningguang through Baixiao. Lord Ningguang was very impressed after tasting it. , and then let us imitate and follow suit." The eldest chef among the four looked at Xia Yu with helplessness written in his eyes.

"But as a chef, you also know that the red case and the white case are two completely different routes. The four of us middle-aged guys couldn't figure out why the crispy crust of your beef patties is so stringy. It’s so good, and the juice of the beef filling inside can be guaranteed...so I can only discuss it with you, little brother."

"As for why there are both Licai and Yuecai... We can only say that Lord Ningguang gave us too much mola, and we can use various cooking raw materials for our creativity and use. We can concentrate on research When it comes to cooking, who would think about competing with each other?"

So that's it. Xia Yu nodded after listening to the middle-aged chef's explanation.

This is indeed the case with food production. If you don't understand how to make some exquisite snacks, your imitation will always be so imperfect. "Of course it's no problem, let's go to the kitchen together?" Xia Yu asked the four senior chefs and saw that they suddenly became energetic. The curiosity on his face was no less than his own.

"Okay, okay, let's go, we've got the dough ready, let's go learn and give it a try."

"So the most critical step for this golden beef shortbread is here. The dough wrapped with the prepared beef filling at the end must be rolled out to just the right thickness." Pull up the dough and wrap the beef in the thin dough and complete it After sealing, Xia Yu picked up the kitchen knife on the side and cut the remaining stretched dough into small strips as thick as matchsticks. After applying a thin layer of oil and rolling it up again, Xia Yu looked at the person who was imitating his own photo. Made by four middle-aged chefs.

Perhaps because they just crossed this hurdle, the four people with considerable cooking skills quickly completed the production of cake embryos with high quality.Sprinkle a little sesame seeds on the surface and fry it in a flat-bottomed oil pan. The preparation of golden beef shortbread comes to an end.

"This step is considered complete. Next, you just need to wait for it to fry over low to medium heat until golden brown, then slightly increase the firepower to remove the excess oil, and then it is ready." After completing the production, Xia Yu felt the four people looking at him. He was a little overwhelmed with his scorching gaze.

It was as if he had become a treasure chest placed in the wilderness. After taking a step back against the huge pressure of the four people, Xia Yu asked carefully: "Masters...who are you?"

"Little brother, where did you get your cooking skills from?"

"Yes, although he is not too old, judging from the proficiency of Bai An, he can't practice it for more than ten years. Hong An should also have learned it, right? How about we communicate together?"

"As long as the ingredients here are not wasted, you can use them as you like. This is the rule set by Lord Ningguang for us."

Xia Yu couldn't help but explain. Like a child who had found a new toy, the four chefs directly opened the food storage cabinets and put up a posture. The strong momentum also infected Xia Yu.

He is worthy of being a private top chef who can cook in this group of jade pavilions. His unruffled aura alone is much better than his own.Xia Yu, who was aroused to win, nodded, and his expression became much more serious.

"That would be a shame."

————————————————————————

After purchasing the incense of eternal life and paying for the kite representing the Seven Gods, Ying, who was trembling with fear every step of the way, was once again frightened by the prices in Liyue Port.

After a discount, 300 million molas become 290 million 10,000 eternal incense, and seven carefully crafted kites cost [-]+ molas. Why are prices in Liyue so much higher than Mondstadt!Judging from the current situation, I have to go to the Adventurers Association and the local job board to pick up some side jobs.

Otherwise, I might not be able to survive even a week in Liyue Port with the hundreds of thousands of molas on my body.

The preliminary preparations for the ceremony were all completed. Before saying goodbye to Zhongli, as a thank you for organizing the ceremony together, Zhongli invited himself and Paimon to have a meal together at Huyan's Three Bowls Restaurant at noon. Then came Zhongli's unforgettable words.

"Don't worry, this time, I will remember to bring money."

Zhongli finally knew how to pay!

How did such a person survive in this expensive Liyue Port until now... While sighing, the blond girl thought of Xia Yu who also came to Liyue Port.

At this time, what was Xia Yu doing?

————————————————————————

In the kitchen of Qunyu Pavilion, the cooking exchange between the four chefs and Xia Yu spread in the pavilion for some reason. In order to satisfy their eyesight as soon as possible, the servants who had finished their work quickly snatched the food. Looking at the position by the kitchen window.

"Master Luo, Master Wang and the others really tried their best today. Is this distinguished guest from the Jade Pavilion who is only in his 20s really so powerful?"

"Shh... keep your voice down. If you disturb the masters in the kitchen and make them unhappy, won't our meals in the next few days be in trouble?"

"It's a pity that Bai Shi, Bai Xiao and Bai Wen are three of them. It is said that they were transferred to replace senior Gan Yu today..."

"What! Aren't you going to be busy all day long? But you should still be able to come back and rest for a while during meal time, right?"
