The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

The gods of their own country were mistakenly regarded as traitors and imprisoned in order to hide their identities. If Wendy from Mondstadt next door knew about this, she would probably write it directly into the sung poems.

According to Ningguang, Mr. Zhongli still needs to wait two days before he can be released from prison, so why not take a stroll in Liyue first.It just so happened that I had just received 500 million moras of activity funds from Ningguang. How could I eat all the restaurants in Liyue?The blond girl, who had made up her mind, put her hands on her hips with a proud expression.

This wallet is bulging, and I am brave enough to buy anything!

With a bunch of offal from the Central Plains in his left hand, and Wanmintang's special grilled tiger fish in his right hand, the pocket on his arm also contained a variety of delicious snacks. Ying, who was strolling near Tiger Rock Square, turned his eyes to the direction of the pier, transporting The busy figures of the dock workers in the cargo once again reminded Ying how different this port city was from Mondstadt.

Both cities have their own advantages... Do you want to explore other leyline anchors in Liyue that you don't know the location of?After discovering that he could teleport using two known anchor points, finding teleportation anchor points on the Teyvat continent also became one of Ying's interests.

It only takes less than 1 minute to travel between the capitals of Mondstadt and Liyue, which is so convenient!While Ying was thinking, the feeling of being shaken on her shoulders brought the blonde girl back to her senses.

"Ying, look there!"

He turned his head and looked at Paimon, whose face was full of surprise. The little guy's round eyes were almost comparable to those of the slime next to Xia Yu. But in Liyue Port, there was nothing worth being surprised about. ?With some confusion and confusion, the blonde girl looked in the direction of Paimon's finger...

"Pfft! Cough cough! Cough..." The overly shocking scene that appeared in her eyes made Ying choke on the fish meat in her mouth and cough. With Paimon's help, she patted her back hard and finally managed to calm down. Ying came over and took a deep breath, with only one question left in her mind:

That's the ruin guard, right?Definitely the ruins guard!When he was performing missions for the Adventurer's Guild in Mondstadt to earn extra money, this tall robot was the last thing he wanted to see.

The thick and solid shell is extremely difficult to cause effective damage with just the power of the wind element and the one-handed sword. The obvious weakness is that the shining one eye is difficult to reach because of its height.As for jumping to attack... the blond girl seemed to recall the scene where the ruins guard was spinning in circles and pulling himself out dozens of meters away like a baseball.

And when the distance is far away, and the guards will use their hands and feet as brackets to fix the launcher, the six turning bombs can chase them for a long time...

For me, who had lost most of my power, this thing was simply my nightmare as a one-handed swordsman...

But why is this kind of thing at the port of Liyue Port?The familiar sense of déjà vu immediately reminded Ying of Xia Yu.That's right... Xia Yu also obtained an upgraded version of the Relic Hunter a few days ago.But can the ruins guard...can the dock workers of Liyue Port accept it?

With curiosity, the blond girl remembered the Liyue General Affairs Department office on the dock where she went a few days ago when she wanted to make some spare money. It seemed to be the largest dock loading and unloading inspection point in Liyue Port.They should know what exactly this ruin guard can be used for, right?

Be sure to go see what all the fuss is about!

————————————————————————

"Miss Yu, how is the situation today? The dock workers at the port must have adapted to these big guys, right?"

"Indeed, it's like this, Mr. Xia Yu, with the joint guarantee of you and the envoy from the Winter Solstice Kingdom, the workers on the dock have accepted these three new partners. With them, they can help carry large items. Everyone has suffered a lot due to their mistakes. The probability of injury should be reduced a lot, and the daily throughput of the terminal can be increased by several percent. It would be great if Mr. Xia Yu had negotiated with our General Affairs Department first..."

In the office next to the dock, Xia Yu was relieved to talk to the young woman sent by the General Affairs Department to manage the loading and unloading of cargo at the dock and the compilation of import and export records.

Yesterday evening, when Dadalia and ten ruins guards returned to Liyue Port, the Qianyan Army in charge of the guard was shocked. Fortunately, Dadalia himself came forward to discuss with Ningguang, who came after learning about the situation. , these ten relic guards finally entered Liyue Port smoothly, and three of them were handed over to the managers of the General Affairs Department of Liyue Port Terminal as they are now.

Since he had ensured that there would be no problems with the guarding of these ruins yesterday, proper after-sales service was also necessary. Therefore, Xia Yu, who arrived at the port, began to ask the dock management about today's situation. Judging from the current situation, These three ruins guards are quite popular.

But...compared to the other six ruins guards who were also responsible for loading and unloading in the ship area of ​​the Winter Kingdom in the port, the young woman with a high ponytail in front of her seemed to be still wondering why she went with the Winter Kingdom in the first place. They start a war and cooperate with a little bit of anger.

These ruin guards were all brought by Dadalia... Even though he has the means to transform these ruin guards, if he doesn't know where they are, isn't there nothing he can do no matter how many means he has?

Just when Xia Yu felt embarrassed and was about to explain, the figures of Ying and Paimon coming down the steps above appeared in Xia Yu's field of vision.

"Xia Yu, you're here too!" Ying, who sounded thankful, trotted to Xia Yu carrying large and small bags of food.

"Oh? It's a traveler. Are you also here to see Mr. Xia Yu?" Before Ying and Paimeng could ask Xia Yu questions, the assistant of the Liyue General Affairs Department looked back and forth between Ying and Xia Yu with a look on his face. Gossip's smile. "In that case, I won't disturb you anymore."

Before the two of them had time to explain, the assistant of the General Affairs Department who took the first step took a few assistants and set off towards the port, leaving the two of them leaning on the spot with awkward expressions.After half a minute, the blonde girl finally recovered.

"Those ruin guards should be your masterpiece." Although she was asking questions, Ying's extremely confident tone showed that she had found the result of this matter.Eyes fixed on Xia Yu, Ying asked: "Can these mechanical products be controlled like those monsters like slimes and deceivers?"

"How should I put it? It has an impact, but there are some restrictions. At present, the only ones I have tested are the ruin guards that have not been activated. The ones that have been activated I dare not continue to try because of safety considerations." explained Xia Yu here pointed to the ruins guard who was helping on the dock. "Just like this, I think it's a good choice to use it to help transport port supplies."

Xia Yu's answer made Ying, who was still a little skeptical at first, even more convinced.

This ability is so useful!If he were to compare himself with being able to use anchor points to teleport and being able to tame various monsters, Ying felt that he would most likely choose the latter.Because for now, as long as they are monsters, regardless of whether they are alive or mechanical, most of them cannot escape Xia Yu's grasp.

"So that's it... Using ruin guards to carry goods is indeed very Xia Yu's style..."

Only then did the blond girl realize that, seemingly to avoid disturbing herself and Xia Yu, the warehouse staff at the Liyue Port dock who were still nearby had made considerable space for chatting with her and Xia Yu.Obviously, the workers at Liyue Port who had taken a lot of space to peek at this scene seemed to have misunderstood the relationship between themselves and Xia Yu...

Just when Ying was about to retort, the round creature lying on Xia Yu's shoulder caught the blonde girl's attention.

Different from the wind attribute slime that Xia Yu had been carrying, this round creature always seemed like it had been seen somewhere before, but for a while it was hard to remember where it was.

"Xia Yu, is this on your shoulder just...?" Ying and Paimeng's questions made Xia Yu smile helplessly. The reason for this situation is also very simple. Naturally, it is because of the round as if on his shoulder. A small animal like a pet.

"This is the Ruoduo Dragon King, the one who killed Osel together with the Wind Dragon Tevalin a few days ago..."

. . . . . .

what! ? ?

It was a bigger shock than the appearance of the ruins guard at the port. The stunned Ying felt that even if he had torn his scalp, he would still be unable to see the round creature in front of him, which was only a small circle larger than the wind slime. Connected with Ruoduo Dragon King.

How domineering was the Ruotuo Dragon King I saw a few days ago?

Stepping on the ocean, a piece of land rose up in one step, and Ruoduo Dragon King rushed to the battlefield in less than 10 minutes from joining the battle to completely eliminating the vortex demon god Osel.Moreover, doesn’t Ruotuo Dragon King have the two humanoid incarnations of Kunjun and Ajiu?Why should it be turned into a ball and hung on Xia Yu's shoulders?

After getting this surprising information, the blond girl once again looked at the new little guy on Xia Yu's shoulders: a body that was so round that it could be compared to a slime, and the rotating little ones on the left and right sides. The small black eyes are full of embarrassment, the dark brown back, the slightly lighter belly, and the tail hanging like a forked branch behind the ball.

After being reminded, no matter how I look at this chubby little animal, I feel that it is somewhat similar to the Ruotuo Dragon King...

"Xia Yu, why would the Dragon King do this?" The girl, whose eyes were full of curiosity and gossip, seemed to be suddenly more curious. She opened the pocket she was carrying and took out two skewers. The blond girl was eating while waiting for Xia Yu's explanation.

Do you think of yourself as a storyteller?Ying's behavior made Xia Yu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and then replied: "Actually, it's not a too troublesome question, but after listening to it, I must keep Ruotuo Dragon King a secret."

"The news that the Whirlpool Demon God Osel was killed this time has spread throughout the streets and alleys of Liyue. Because the shape and size of Dragon King Ruotuo was too obvious in that battle, the people in Liyue Port They will also remember the Dragon King Ruotuo who helped them protect their hometown."

"And it happened that the scene where Dragon King Ruotuo turned into Kunjun and Ajiu when he returned to Liyue Port after the battle was discovered by several people who returned to Liyue Port early. This spread from ten to ten, and Kunjun and Ajiu Ajiu's appearance spread throughout the streets and alleys of Liyue Port."

"What's more, Ruotuo Dragon King himself is one of the most powerful companions of the Liyue Rock Spirit, so..." After explaining this, even without Xia Yu continuing, Ying could guess what was going on. .

Emperor Yanwang had just left in the eyes of the people of Liyue, and Dragon King Ruotuo appeared in the eyes of the people of Liyue.

You know, the various stories of Emperor Yanwang are as well-known as textbooks to the people of Liyue City. Naturally, Dragon King Ruotuo, one of the best partners of Emperor Yanwang, has not been able to escape from this. Stories spread one after another.

And the appearance of Dragon King Ruotuo in human form was actually known to the people of Liyue Port!In this way, if he continues to appear in Liyue Port with a human appearance, Ying is sure that Dragon King Ruotuo will cause no less commotion and onlookers among the people of Liyue than Zhongli who reveals his true identity.

So he changed into this appearance to avoid the people of Liyue Port... This exquisite choice made the blond girl look at Ruotuo Dragon King with a bit of admiration.

What kind of situation is most likely to cause ordinary people to ignore it?Naturally, they imitate toys or dolls and become cute and cute in appearance and size. This is also the reason why the slimes that have been on Xia Yu's shoulders all year round are often ignored by outsiders:

No one could have imagined that they were real. In the world of Teyvat, the first reaction of everyone who saw the slime on Xia Yu's shoulder would definitely be, 'This is a doll made with a fake appearance.'

high!It's really high!

Chapter 98 Distinguished Guests at the Hall of Rebirth

The ruins guard with its weapons disassembled was transformed into a civilian transport tool, which was a bit beyond Ying's imagination. After saying goodbye to the blond girl who finished chatting with Xia Yu, she embarked on the journey planned for today.

"I plan to continue shopping in Liyue, so I'll leave first~" The blond girl waved goodbye to Xia Yu and led Paimon towards the outside of Liyue Port. The two people who left also asked Xia Yu to start. made their own plans.

With Dadalia's help, he was able to taste Liuliting and Xinyuexuan, two restaurants in Liyue Port that required reservations several months in advance to arrange seats.As far as the level of cooking is concerned, the dishes of both restaurants are indeed quite high in completion, but compared with the four private chefs hired by Ningguang Qunyu Pavilion, they are still a little behind.

Calculating the time, it has been more than three months since I came to Liyue. Although I want to return to Mondstadt now to see how my monsters and little Dulin are doing, I have not yet asked Mr. Zhongli about myself. It’s about the runes on the back of my right hand.

According to Wendy, Morax is the eldest of the seven existing mortal rulers, and we should be able to get some information related to this rune from him.

After all, no matter how you think about it, this obviously extraordinary rune is likely to be directly linked to your own life. After all, in order to survive on the continent of Teyvat, it is necessary to know more about what you can understand.In other words, at least before Zhongli was released from prison, he would have to stay in Liyue Port for a day or two.

Why not take a stroll around Liyue Port first, and then ask the servant at Keqing's mansion what places are worth seeing in Liyue Port.Having made up his mind, Xia Yu walked along the stone road of Chihuyan towards the downtown area...

After walking through the stalls and arriving at the Huyan Square, Xia Yu's field of vision suddenly became much wider. Xia Yu, who came to the guardrail, looked at the vendors in the lower commercial area who were talking about business, including minerals, fresh food, and dried miscellaneous goods. As well as various daily necessities, the goods from various countries stacked in the merchant's shop aroused Xia Yu's interest.

Wondering what exotic ingredients you can find at the port?Just as Xia Yu was about to go down to see what was for sale, the shouts of a girl from behind caught Xia Yu's attention.

“Come, come, take a look, have a look~ Special offers, special offers~”

The girl who was shouting vigorously looked about fourteen or fifteen years old. She was dressed in a solemn black and gold imitation Taoist robe. She had a pair of extremely beautiful bright red pupils, which gradually turned from dark brown to brown red. Her beautiful long hair was tied into two big ponytails and dragged almost to her thighs.

What kind of outfit is this?The dress of the girl with a delicate face caught Xia Yu's attention.Judging from her attire, this dress is definitely not the color matching that a girl who is in the lively and beauty-loving age should have. The solemn color must be the color matching of clothing for someone who is engaged in some important work.

But if this outfit is a bit too serious, the girl's white and firm legs that are not covered up under the black and gold tight shorts seem too inconsistent with this outfit.

What Xia Yu couldn't understand even more was that although she was such a lively and lovely girl, the Liyue people passing by did not want to pay attention to her cries, and even had a vague tendency to avoid her.Why is this?

As if aware of Xia Yu's gaze, the girl who was still waving and shouting stopped her hawking and focused her gaze on Xia Yu. Perhaps she was shocked by Xia Yu's height. The girl who was obviously stunned at first came to her senses. He looked at Xia Yu's outfit from top to bottom with scrutinizing eyes...

Ah...he was walking over here, looking at the weird smile on the face of the girl walking towards him. Just when Xia Yu was about to say something, an old man of about 70 years old passing by said: " Young man, you must be a foreigner, right?”

kindness?Although I don’t know why this old man who is over sixty years old wants to chat with me, judging from the friendly attitude of the other party, this old man with a kind face should not have any malicious intentions.

"Yes, I came to Liyue from Mondstadt for a trip. What can I do for you, old man?" Xia Yu replied to the old man passing by and found that the other man let out a long sigh.

"Hey... that child's name is Hu Tao. If what she said offends you, please don't take it seriously. She never meant to offend you. It's just that not many people in Liyue can keep up with this thinking circuit. ..." After reminding Xia Yu, the old man smiled apologetically and continued walking along the path of Chihuyan Square.

???

The old man's words aroused Xia Yu's curiosity even more. He did not openly tell him the purpose of this girl's visit, which meant that the old man who just passed by for a walk knew what this girl did.

Still, irritating yourself?Could it be that he was here to scold himself?No matter how you look at it, it doesn't match her enthusiastic and shouting image just now, right?Just when Xia Yu was wondering what this girl wanted to sell him, the girl who came to Xia Yu said: "Sir, you are a foreigner, right?"

The energetic tone reminded Xia Yu of Xiang Ling, the daughter of Chef Mao of Wanmin Tang. However, compared with Xiang Ling, the girl in front of him, whose eyes were rolling and seemed to be thinking about something, was a bit more quirky. Feel.After nodding his head to show that the other party guessed correctly, Xia Yu found that the smile on the girl's face became more obvious.

"Judging from the traces left on your shoes, sir, you should be a traveler or an adventurer. In other words, sir, you often go to some mountainous places. Isn't that right?"

What a meticulous observation!Xia Yu was somewhat impressed by the girl's precise judgment.

Indeed, compared to the original world, this world does not have such convenient means of transportation.However, due to the excellent natural environment, Xia Yu himself often goes to the mountains and forests to pick some fresh ingredients in his spare time.You can tell so much just by the wear pattern of your shoes. The smart girl in front of you has won a lot of favor from Xia Yu.

But...why did the old man say that the other party would offend him?Xia Yu, who was a little confused, nodded and acknowledged the girl's guess, and then replied: "Yes, my name is Xia Yu. I am a traveling chef from Mondstadt. I currently have some things to do in Liyue. , I will probably return to Mondstadt after a few days of busy work... If I have the opportunity in the future, I will probably travel throughout the entire Teyvat continent."

After answering the girl, Xia Yu found that the girl's petal-like pupils suddenly bloomed with golden light.

"Sure enough, I read it right!" The extremely excited girl first clenched her fist and punched her other palm, and then took out a piece of paper with a very conspicuous color that looked like a leaflet from her pocket. "As both a traveler and a chef, you will definitely be able to become an S-class customer of our store. My name is Hutao, and I am the seventh-generation master of No. 70 of the Rebirth Hall. Are you interested in knowing our relevant business description?"

Wait...the Hall of Purity? ?The familiar name made Xia Yu stunned for a moment.I have heard the name of this Hall of the Past. Isn't it the place where Zhongli, the incarnation of Morax, works in Liyue Port?Since the ceremony of sending immortals had only been carried out for a few days, Xia Yu was deeply impressed by the name of the Hall of Rebirth.

In the funeral industry?But how can any funeral industry come out to solicit customers like this?Besides, does this kind of trivial matter that must be done at the end of life really need to attract customers?

In other words, this Purity Hall is not the other Purity Hall, but the pronunciation of the name of the shop happens to be the same as the pronunciation... But what crazy store manager would name his shop the same as the only funeral industry in Liyue? !

"It's like this. Shengshengtang is launching a pre-order service. You must know that people always have to experience life, old age, illness and death. And sir, your hobby should be quite dangerous because you are often in the wild. Do you want to learn about Shengshengtang in advance? Related services?”

"From the search and burial after an accidental death to the professional funeral service, the Gossip Hall, which has a history of thousands of years, is definitely worthy of your trust. We even have high-end business buy-one-get-one-free services..."

Without waiting for Xia Yu to ask, the girl who had already started to introduce made Xia Yu even more convinced. The girl in front of him was really engaged in the funeral industry.He is even the leader of this session of the Rebirth Hall...

No wonder the old man said that this girl named Hu Tao would annoy him.If it were someone with more sensitive nerves, Hu Tao's words would be like cursing their whole family to be buried soon.

Seemingly noticing Xia Yu's frozen smile, Hutao said quickly: "Huh? Don't care so much. Look, even Prince Yan, who has lived for more than 6000 years, was sent to the Shengsheng Hall because he failed to overcome the thunder tribulation. Are you leaving? So..."

"No, I'm not taboo because of the business involved in the Rebirth Hall, it's just that your marketing method is really wrong..." Xia Yu, who explained the reason to Hu Tao, found that the girl's expression suddenly froze.

It is understandable that the marriage represented by the red event is considered a happy event by many people, but the white event also means that a person has experienced his whole life and has come to his end. Therefore, the separation of a blessed and long-lived elderly person Going is also called joy and mourning.

The second is the accidental death of people who have had a difficult life. Although it is a sad thing for them to let go after a difficult journey, considering that they can finally find peace in another world, it is in line with the Taoist concept of "life and death are one" In a sense, this can also be regarded as a happy event.

What's more, in the original world, there were quite a few people who prepared a burial place for themselves in advance, especially those with money.

"You mean, you can make the business of Shengshengtang prosperous?" Hu Tao's eyes suddenly turned fiery when he looked at Xia Yu.

You know, ever since I took over the Palace of Purity, I have been trying to find ways to change the dull impression that Hall of Purity has in everyone's minds.For this reason, he has been staying in the Hall of Rebirth in recent days to consider related plans. Even important matters such as the ritual of sending immortals have been left to his most capable guest Qing Zhongli to complete.

But the day before yesterday, Hu Tao was stunned by the news from the Qianyan Army in Liyue Port.

Zhongli was actually deceived by the executive officer of the Winter Kingdom and participated in the incident of desecrating the ancestor of the Rock King!Although there was an explanation from Emperor Yan's old comrade Ruo Tuo Long Wang in historical documents, in order to convince the people in Liyue City, Zhongli had to be locked up in the cage of Qian Yan's army for several days before being released.

That's what's called walking around...

But this formality is harming myself!Now I have to come forward to solicit business for the Rebirth Hall!I haven't figured out a way that is reasonable and not likely to offend the people of Liyue, so I can only implement it according to my original method... Even though I know that I will get a nose full of dust, but this kind of thing has to be done no matter what. Try it, what if someone could accept that death is inevitable?

"Can you tell me more about it?"

Looking at Hu Tao who was so excited that he put his hands on his arms and the weird looks in the eyes of the passers-by around him, Xia Yu didn't move at first because he couldn't find anything to do immediately in Liyue Port. He moved the girl's hands on his arms in a coquettish manner, and then pointed to the Fucha House not far away.

"Why don't we go over there and chat slowly, what do you think?" Xia Yu suggested to Hu Tao and nodded while looking at the other party.

"Of course it's fine!"

————————————————————————

"Boss, give us a private room and two servings of good tea~" Hutao opened the door and shouted loudly, startling the owner of the tea shop. Although he wanted to complain a few words in a low voice, he thought There were not many customers this early in the morning, and it was related to the business of the Hall of Rebirth. The complaints that had already reached his throat were still swallowed alive by the shop owner.

"Okay, you two, please wait a moment~" After guiding Xia Yu and Hu Tao to the relatively secluded private room in the backyard, the shop owner looked at Xia Yu with a look of sympathy.After making two cups of good tea, the shop owner, who didn't interrupt too much, left the private room in the backyard and returned to the lobby of the front hall.

"Pfft~ Hahaha! I dare say, he must have thought you were going to ask us to take care of things at the Rebirth Hall." The series of movements and expressions of the leaving store owner couldn't escape Hu Tao's eyes, and he laughed. The girl who was slapping the table slightly shrugged her shoulders. "Hug...I'm sorry, give me a few minutes to calm down."

After waiting for a short while, Hu Tao, whose expression finally returned to normal, also became unusually serious.The eyes of the girl who looked at Xia Yu were full of expectation.

"Mr. Xia Yu, how do you think I should advertise the Hall of Rebirth in order to attract customers?"

Chapter 99 Business development, recognition from Hutao

Even though Xia Yu scratched his head, he still couldn't figure out why the seventh-generation master of the No. 70 Hall of Purity would want to promote funeral services.

It seems that the only family that manages funerals in Liyue is the Shengshengtang... After all, who in Liyue Port will not end up at the Shengshengtang?Even if you encounter a beast in the wild and end up with no body left, there is still a way to remedy the situation with a burial mound.Compared with the many funeral companies in his original world, the pressure on the Death Hall is not great at all. In other words, there is no competitive pressure on the Death Hall at all.
