The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

But these cute little guys cannot be associated with intelligence just by looking at their appearance... For example, the water ball in his hand, and the grass balls emerging from the soil on the side, these little guys are resting Xia Yu couldn't associate them with intelligence because of his laziness.

Xia Yu, who was intrigued by the blond girl's words and tried to communicate with the gently stroking water ball, said: "Little guy, do you know what she said just now?"

"?" A big question mark was outlined above his head. The little guy, whose eyes were full of doubts, gently shook his chubby body from left to right.Unclear responses were also passed along.

However, rather than denying that he was unclear about the truth of the matter, Shui Tuantuan denied that he had seen Lei Tuantuan and Bingying Leiying "commit crimes" together. The somewhat unexpected answer he received made Xia Yu He couldn't help but laugh.

It's true!However, this kind of thing is not troublesome news at all in my opinion.Just like raising pets, who doesn’t want their pets to be smarter?This should make raising these little guys easier in the future.

"I understand, I will guide them well when I have time." Xia Yu's happy look when he answered to Ying made Ying a little confused.

No... Why can you still laugh, Xia Yu?The slimes you raised have learned to hold grudges and then take revenge and hit people afterwards!

Chapter 133 This little guy doesn’t seem very smart...

Watching Ying, Keli and Xiao Dulin leave the cave after breakfast, Xia Yu's attention was completely attracted by the information Ying told him.

How smart are these little guys in my family?Since he had not yet intuitively seen what these little guys did, Xia Yu, who was trying to conduct a test, looked at the water balls he fed like small pets.

Let’s start with the most direct instinctive reaction.

He found a large long-mouthed glass teapot from the room and placed it next to Shui Tuantuan. In the little guy's confused eyes, Xia Yu put the little guy's favorite gel block into the kettle. Then he put the lid on the pot and started observing the little guy's behavior.

If the little one is smart enough, after observing his own behavior of putting the gel block into the pot and covering it, the best choice for him would be to imitate his own behavior and open the top lid of the long-spout kettle.I wonder what choice it will make?Seeing the water balls bouncing around the transparent kettle excitedly, Xia Yu sat aside and observed quietly.

As if he found out that he had been rewarded with snacks, the water ball with eyes narrowed into slits with laughter first happily bounced on the shoulders of Xia Yu who was lying on the table. After he rubbed Xia Yu's cheek affectionately to express his gratitude, the little guy followed Xia Yu. His arm rolled towards the kettle.

Emotionally, it is still almost as smart as before. The little guy knew that he gave it food, so he thanked himself first and expressed his kindness. With this level of understanding, it should not be difficult to take out the gel block in the kettle. , just when Xia Yu was about to give a conclusion that the intelligence of these small elements had indeed improved, an accident happened.

Bang~, the little guy's body, which directly hit the outer wall of the kettle, became a concave pancake shape due to the fact that it adhered to the outer wall of the glass.After hurriedly reaching out to steady the water ball that almost rolled off the table with the kettle, Xia Yu felt dumbfounded by the confused look in the water ball that stayed next to the kettle and a question mark popped up above its head.

Feeling a little confused, the water ball rubbed against the kettle in a full circle. The little guy looked at the small gel pieces in the kettle with an anxious look.After many attempts to no avail, he simply gave up thinking and wrapped the entire small pot into his body.

(｀?ω??)? ? ?

He lowered his head and looked at the small kettle inside his body. He was confused as to why he couldn't taste the gel mass. After searching carefully, he finally found the slender pouring spout of the long-mouthed kettle.The little guy who worked hard to stretch his body into a thin line and got into the pot finally got what he wanted and tasted the refreshing little gel piece.

However, just as he came out, something unexpected happened.

It seems that the water with mild elemental properties prevents the little guy from digesting the small pieces of gel as quickly as the fire and thunder. The water that tried to return with the food was surprised to find that the gel that he had swallowed was... The small piece of glue actually fell out of the body when it was squeezed to the spout.

The anxious little guy quickly got back into the pot. After trying back and forth several times but failing to take the food out, the anxious little guy turned his head and looked at the person lying on the table with pitiful eyes. Don't laugh out loud Xia Yu.

Pfft~, after all, I still couldn't hold it back. Shui Tuantuan's series of naturally stupid behaviors still made Xia Yu's lips curl up. He opened the lid of the pot and poured the little guy who was curled up into a ball from the kettle into the palm of his hand. After that, Xia Yu gently stroked the little guy's drooping head to express comfort.

"It's okay, it's just a test." After taking out a small piece of gel from his pocket and handing it to Shui Tuantuan, Xia Yu finally recovered when he looked at the little guy.

The rather interesting experimental process convinced Xia Yu of the final result.

Although Shui Tuantuan is indeed quite good at expressing emotions, judging from the process of taking food, the little guy does not seem to know how to adapt.This situation is like raising a smart myna, but because it has not been taught the words to speak, the little guy still can't do much except for its hunting instinct.

You know, Huo Tuan Tuan and Water Tuan Tuan can be regarded as the first two slimes to follow him. Feng Tuan Tuan can be temporarily excluded because he got Wendy's blessing. Now the results of testing Water Tuan Tuan are like this, and the two joined later. How could Lei Tuantuan follow Bingying and Leiying to fly over the walls?

She must have made a mistake. How could such cute little guys have a planned and premeditated 'revenge' plan against Paimon?

It was almost time to pre-process the food for lunch. After putting the water ball back on his shoulder, Xia Yu stood up and walked towards the refrigerator placed next to the frozen tree. Just as Xia Yu put the pre-pickled food into the When all the meat was taken out, the commotion in front made Xia Yu raise his head.

This... scene that appeared in his eyes made Xia Yu stand there blankly.I saw the golden Rei Slime being dragged by the three Lei Ying and flying to the window of the small building of Ying's room again. With the three Lei Ying, I accurately stayed on the window sill and looked into the room. Golden Thunder seemed to be a little disappointed because they could not find the search target.

I thought it was because I woke up in the morning and looked away after being drowsy, but I didn't expect it to be true?

As if aware of his gaze, the golden thunder that was still on the window sill quickly rushed into the room as if it was a thief with a guilty conscience. After a while, the little guy jumped out from the window sill downstairs and quickly came to his room. before.

The energetic look of the little guy who was crawling up along the legs of his trousers made Xia Yu squat down. After picking up the little guy, Xia Yu couldn't help but look at the flattering expression on the golden thunder ball. laughed out loud.

This little guy is like a little animal that did something bad secretly and was discovered by the breeder. "You..." He patted the little guy's head gently.

"You're not allowed to do this next time, do you understand?" Xia Yu, who was admonishing Lei Tuantuan, looked at it and nodded crazily after heaving a sigh of relief.The situation was like talking to a child, which allowed Xia Yu to basically make a conclusion about the little monsters he raised.

It seems that it is not that these little guys are not smart, but the difference in personality causes them to behave differently when they act.

But no matter what, this is definitely good news.

————————————————————————

After finishing the preparation and selling of lunch food in an ordinary manner, Xia Yu, after cleaning up the stall, began to think about what to do in the afternoon.

Tomorrow, the pickling of the meat ingredients has been completed. Dadalia informed that it will take about two days to manufacture the replacement parts of the ruin guard. There is no need to worry about getting the ruin guard under repair.

Compared with modern times, there are still too few entertainment methods in Mondstadt... As far as ordinary people with mediocre abilities, after work, they drink, listen to bards singing poems, or go to the West Wind Church Trying your luck to see if you can meet Barbara singing, these are one of the few ways for everyone to pass the time.

Although I also wanted to go to Angel's Gift and have a glass of ice-cold fruit wine, but because of the kvass, Mr. Charles, the bartender of the tavern, has been complaining to himself these days about why he was not invited to the appreciation meeting of this new drink. he.If you go there at noon, you will inevitably encounter similar problems.

Why not go home and continue to observe those monsters to see what their personalities are like.The investigation of the water balls and golden thunder balls in the morning aroused Xia Yu's idea of ​​​​understanding the personalities and agility of all the monsters he raised. After returning to the small courtyard and entering the Huzhong Cave, an unexpected situation appeared in Xia Yu's field of vision. .

The long lavender hair was tied into a long braid and tied behind the head. The classic zombie suit and the charm-like object attached to the back of the forehead. The conspicuous features made Xia Yu immediately recognize this one. Who is the little figure standing near the frozen tree?

Isn't this Qiqi?During the morning chat with Ying, Xia Yu heard her say that she had handed over the Cave Pass disc that entered the cave in the pot to another person, and Qiqi happened to be one of them.

But what does this little guy do when he comes to the Huzhong Cave at noon?Moreover, he specifically chose a location close to the frozen tree larvae.Just when Xia Yu was confused, Qiqi, with one hand on his hip, raised his other arm high above his head, and then started stretching as if doing radio gymnastics.

"One, two, seven, seven, two, two, seven..." The little guy with a focused look didn't seem to notice his approach at all. Although the little guy's movements were slightly stiff, considering that Qiqi himself is a zombie, Because of this, this kind of rigidity is within Xia Yu's understanding.

And if you observe carefully, the movements of the little zombies in motion begin to become more and more skillful.After exercising for a long time, Qiqi, who seemed to be satisfied with his situation, finally stopped.

The little zombie who stopped moving seemed to have finally sensed Xia Yu's presence. Qiqi's big cherry-pink eyes looked back with a blank expression. After standing still for a while, Qiqi finally spoke.

"Who are you?"

Oh, has it been forgotten?The expected situation did not discourage Xia Yu. After all, during the preparations for the ceremony of sending immortals, he had also heard Qiqi talk about her own situation.

Although he gained a lifespan similar to immortality in the form of a zombie, the price he paid was also extremely expensive: he couldn't taste the food, his memory was so poor that he would definitely forget something if he didn't mention it for a few days, and his body became rigid. ..These are the most common problems that Qiqi needs to face.

In addition to these, there are also issues with the way zombies move that Zhongli mentioned.The zombies' actions require the exorcist to issue an order, and only the zombies who receive the order's instructions will take action.

Fortunately, due to some special circumstances, Qiqi was the initiator of the order.Therefore, when communicating with Qiqi, there is no big problem except that her reaction is always about half a beat slow.

"Hello Qiqi, I'm Xia Yu. We met before in Bubulu. It was about buying incense for the past life." Xia Yu reminded Qiqi and found that the other party was still confused and fell back. Without being too entangled, Xia Yu, who was trying to find a topic, asked the little zombie: "What were you doing just now Qiqi?"

"...It's calisthenics. As long as I keep doing these every day, my body can stay flexible. Also, the feeling here is cool, I really like it." After explaining his situation, Qiqi used the cherry pink His big eyes stared at Xia Yu blankly, as if waiting for the tall man in front of him to introduce himself.

Although this is somewhat different from the zombie situation in the movie, it basically satisfies the basic setting that zombies like cold places.After all, this is near the Frozen Tree, so it is normal for the ice element to be relatively strong.

Thinking of this, Xia Yu said: "My name is Xia Yu, and I am a permanent guest in this pot cave. The monsters in this pot cave are all my little pets, so there is no need to worry."

After introducing his situation, Xia Yu found a rare look of expectation in the little guy's eyes. "Little pets... are there small sparrows? They are fluffy, small, and very cute." Compared to the previous question and answer, the reaction speed was obviously much faster. It seemed that Qiqi liked this little animal very much. .

Little Tuanfinch... I can understand that little guys like small animals, especially the round and fluffy little Tuanfinch. It is normal for a naive little guy to win the favor of everyone.

However, since all the pets he raises are monsters, there really aren't any conventional little pets like this in Potzhong Cave Sky at the moment.

"Not yet, there should be some small animals in this pot cave in the future." Looking at Qiqi who was slightly disappointed and lowered his head after answering, he couldn't find a good way to comfort him for a while. Xia Yu suddenly realized that although there were no other small animals in the cave in the pot, there seemed to be one being that was particularly suitable for Qiqi's current state.

That’s right, it’s ice slime.Regardless of temperature or size, the ice ball that can be easily picked up with both hands should be suitable for Qiqi due to its unique properties.I just don’t know where that little guy Bing Tuan Tuan has gone now...

Just as Xia Yu was about to search for the existence of ice balls in the cave in the pot, Mona appeared in Xia Yu's field of vision holding the ice slime he had raised.

If there is no trace of the little guy from Ice Tuan Tuan, let Mona use the ice slime he gave her to save her first.

Chapter 134 Qiqi’s Troubles and the Big Tuanque

"Huh?" She didn't expect that she would be stopped suddenly, and Mona was a little stunned before she could realize what happened.

It’s really nice to have an ice slime next to you when doing astrology research in the hot season. The cool feeling not only makes you feel comfortable, but also makes it easier to use the cool feeling when researching data and reasoning. concentrate.

But now Xia Yu actually wants him to hand over the ice slime?Not even if you are an employer!

By the way, doesn’t Xia Yu also have an ice slime?Thinking of this, Mona spoke reluctantly: "Xia Yu, don't you also have an ice slime...?" Mona, who was halfway complaining, stopped when she saw Qiqi standing next to Xia Yu. Come down.

hateful!Xia Yu, you cheated! !

About the same height as Keli, her beautiful cherry-pink eyes were staring at herself and the ice slime in her hand. Qiqi, whose eyes were full of doubts, put her index finger next to the small mouth, which seemed to be a little bit... I don’t understand why Xia Yu wants her to pick up the ice slime.

And this outfit... The knowledgeable Mona recognized the significance of Qiqi's unique outfit at a glance.The order on her head indicates that she is a zombie unique to Liyue. In other words, from a practical point of view, this little guy was already dead when she was only as old as her appearance.

It's a bit pitiful, how can I refuse... What's more important is that even if this little guy has turned into a zombie, I can somehow sense that her birth constellation in the starry sky still exists. This is What a strong obsession with living...

Forget it, let’s not study astrology for today, and instead learn about the existence of this little guy.

"I know, I'll just leave it to her." Feeling extremely helpless, Mona came to Xia Yu and Qiqi, and handed the ice slime in her hand that she hadn't figured out what happened to her. After Qiqi looked confused, Mona complained to Xia Yu in a low voice: "By the way, Xia Yu, don't you also have an ice slime? Can't you just give it to this little zombie?"

Mona, who had a little temper, made Xia Yu feel a little embarrassed, "Isn't it because the space in the cave in the pot is too big, and I can't find where the little guy went to play for a while..." She scratched Xia Yu, who was scratching the top of his head, explained to Mona and then breathed a sigh of relief when he looked at the other person's speechless expression.

Things should be settled.

Moving the monsters from the small courtyard into the Cave in the Pot will definitely be beneficial to the monsters I raise in terms of living environment.Under the nourishment of spiritual power, there are more abundant high-quality elemental particles, and the broad living environment can allow them to move more freely.As far as growth is concerned, Cave in the Pot is an existence with no disadvantages.

It's just a bit of a pain for me. When I want to find a certain monster in the original small courtyard, I only need to search around the room first. If there is none, I go to the garden. A simple and efficient search can help me quickly find it. Find the corresponding little guy.

But now?If you want to carry out a carpet-like search in the Huzhong Cave expanded by Ruotuo Dragon King's immortal power, it will probably take no less time than walking from Mondstadt to Liyue Port, not to mention that these little guys may not always be there. at a point.

They also move. Compared with searching for and finding their traces bit by bit, the possibility of encountering or missing them is much higher.

This is the so-called gain and loss... After sighing softly, Xia Yu turned his eyes to Qiqi, who was standing next to him. The little guy holding the ice slime was full of comfort. expression.

As expected, it was pretty much what he had guessed. Now that it was known that Qiqi had lost his sense of taste, touch became a very important way for Qiqi to appreciate the outside world.

Whether it's 'cool' when talking about coconut milk, or 'fluffy' when talking about a small bird, these are Qiqi's hard-earned tastes of the outside world, making her feel like she's 'still alive'.

Qiqi likes a cool living environment, so the cool touch transmitted from the palms of hands when holding ice slime will definitely make ice slime something Qiqi likes.As far as the results are concerned, I guessed it right.

It just so happens that I have some free time now, so let's chat with Qiqi for a while.

————————————————————————

They came to the frozen tree and spread out a long mat to sit down, trying to find out what Liyue looked like in Qiqi's eyes. Xia Yu and Mona found that chatting with this little guy could indeed learn about many unique characteristics of zombies. .

For example, if Qi Qi encounters something she can't remember, she will take out a small notebook that looks extremely important from her pocket, flip through it, and then find the corresponding answer.

As for Mona's question of 'What to do if the notebook is also forgotten', Qiqi's answer was quite precise and reasonable.

That is to directly issue an order to yourself and force this matter to be written down.

If you want to describe it, this method of forcibly giving yourself an order to remember that the small book is a memorandum is like the trunk of a big tree. The complicated words and records in the small book become branching branches. As long as the trunk remains Now, Qiqi will not forget what he should do.

Just flip through your notebook when you think you've forgotten something...

During the leisurely chat, the little zombie, who visited the Huzhong Cave for the first time, also became interested in the strange situation in the Huzhong Cave.

"A lot of slimes..." Qiqi was surprised by the grass slimes basking in the sun in the grass and the wind masses floating in the air with small wings. These slimes were either lazy or leisurely. The slimes Liyue met while collecting herbs were completely different in character, but they actually stayed with everyone in such harmony?

He lowered his head again and glanced at the ice slime he was hugging. Perhaps it was because he was a zombie. The cold body of the ice slime he was hugging was very similar to his own. The little guy was also wondering. Er's eyes looked at him.

"Xia Yu, Mona, don't the slimes here attack people?" Qiqi asked the two of them, feeling extremely confused. "Why, the slimes we encounter in the wild are not like this...?"

"It should be because the domestication and living environment are too good, so they don't need to protect their territory as hard as they do in the wild..." Looking at Xia Yu who patiently explained to him, Qiqi's face showed a hint of something. A very expectant look.

Although I couldn't understand what some of the contents meant, I guessed from what I could understand. According to Xia Yu, this would happen to monsters that have lived in the cave in the pot for a period of time.

"So... what about the little Tuanque? Will the little Tuanque be like this?" Qiqi's eyes were filled with anticipation as he gave his final question.

This... Unexpectedly, Qiqi turned the topic back to these small animals after going around in a big circle. The current situation made Xia Yu feel a little tricky.

For example, the little Tuanque mentioned by Qiqi has been tested by himself. The runes that are invincible against monsters have no effect at all when encountering these round little birds.

Just get a little closer to these little birds, and they will flee in all directions if they are wary. More importantly, the vitality of the small animals is much weaker than that of slimes.As long as you don't control the intensity of the capture process, you will have sad results.

"I'm not sure about this either..." Xia Yu, who answered Qiqi, seemed to be thinking about some special ways to deal with it again.

Let the wind control the airflow and prevent the little bird from flying?Or prepare some bait like in the original world, and then use a dustpan or other tools to catch the small group of sparrows?Xia Yu, who was formulating a plan, suddenly remembered something.

Isn't A Yuan, who manages the cave in the pot, just a big, fluffy and round bird?Before we have the best capture plan, maybe we can take Qiqi to see Ayuan?

"Qiqi, as for the small group of birds, there are currently no birds in the cave in the pot. Do you want to go and see the big group of birds?"

————————————————————————

A few minutes later, next to the small building where Ying lived, A Yuan, who was still resting, felt a little embarrassed by the little zombie jumping on his back.

Is this the little zombie that was resurrected by Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan and the others?Although Zhenjun Li Shui Dieshan and the others had mentioned the existence of Qi Qi, A Yuan never expected that Qi Qi, brought by Xia Yu and Mona, would rush towards him with shining eyes after seeing him.

"Well, although I would be very happy to be liked by others, what is the situation now...Xia Yu, can you tell me?"

"I'm sorry... Generally speaking, Qiqi's favorite small animal is the small bird, but we don't have any effective way to capture the small animals that will scare them as little as possible." Xia Yu explained to A Yuan Feeling a little embarrassed.

"And even if I catch them, it's very difficult to keep them in my hands, so I..." After hearing this, A Yuan finally understood what Xia Yu meant.

The end result is that he becomes a shield for those little birds?A little depression lingered in A Yuan's heart, but considering Qiqi's heartfelt love for him, A Yuan, who was a little relieved, could only lift his wings and scratch his head gently.

Well, that's it.

After calming the little guy's mood, the leisurely chat can finally start again.After taking out a bottle of the juice he had made and handing it to A Yuan as an apology, Xia Yu asked Qiqi: "Qiqi, what did you just say about being able to do calisthenics safely in the cave in the pot?" ?”

Just now I heard Qi Qi mention that she might encounter members of the treasure thieving group or monsters when she went to collect herbs. In other words, there was definitely a fight.According to common sense, fighting should be a dangerous thing, but why does Qiqi not care so much about fighting and instead mentions that it would be dangerous in Liyue Port?
