The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

Passing the plank road of Shimen and arriving at the intersection between Dihuazhou and Wuwangpo, Xia Yu, who climbed up the hillside, first targeted the Wuwangpo area that Hutao said was particularly dark.After a short while, the ruins of buildings that were even more dilapidated than before the renovation of the Shengshengtang Cemetery appeared in Xia Yu's field of vision.

Sure enough, like Guiliyuan, there are only the ruins of buildings left here... The ruins of the bungalow with a sense of desolation made Xia Yu feel a little sad. After observing carefully for a while, Xia Yu also discovered the inconsequence described by Hu Tao. The evil side of Wanpo.

The good weather that had been clear and sunny just now had been obscured by clouds and fog at some point, and the gloomy environment was like walking into some kind of enchantment.Xia Yu, who did not believe in evil, tried to retreat a short distance again, and then he was surprised to find that the clear weather had returned to the sky again.

This, could it be said that there is really a ghost in Wuwangpo?The situation that was like a supernatural phenomenon and could not see any problems in the elemental vision made Xia Yu retreat in his heart. The situation was a bit dangerous... Just when Xia Yu was about to turn around and leave, Cao Shi was still on his shoulder. Lime jumped to the ground, and the emotion conveyed showed that the little guy seemed to have discovered his companion.

Is there really grass slime here?After following the bouncing grass balls through the smoke-filled area and entering Wuwangpo, Xia Yu felt extremely shocked as if he had entered another space.

Although it is still daytime, the towering trees with lush foliage in the middle of Wuwangpo block most of the sunlight. The light spots that penetrate into the forest hit the damp land, and there is a sound of insects chirping. The few thunder fireflies that flew by from time to time added a bit of horror to this overly clean environment.

It is indeed the Wuwanpo slope that was once chosen by Hutao as the venue for the Rebirth Hall ritual... It seems that when you walk in from the outside, you really feel like there is a separation between yin and yang.Xia Yu, who was looking for the figure of the grass ball, finally found the little guy communicating with two or three wild small grass slimes next to a giant tree.

Judging from the emotions conveyed by several wild grass slimes, the communication between the little guys seemed to be going well. Within a few minutes, the grass slimes who had successfully completed the task turned around and looked at where Xia Yu was. , the look of expectation in the eyes of the little guy who came back with his companions with a proud expression made Xia Yu laugh out loud.

This little guy is actually waiting for me to praise him!

"Okay, okay. It's really powerful." Xia Yu squatted down and gently touched the little guy who had rubbed against his feet, and then turned his attention to the grass slime that came with his own grass ball. .It seems that because they don't know themselves well, the three little guys seem to want to get closer to themselves, but they look slightly scared.

Strange, my slime affinity attribute is invalid?Feeling that something was wrong, Xia Yu tried to appear gentle while trying to slowly approach one of the little guys, and then carefully observed every move of the little guy.

As his palm slowly approached, although the grass slime that stayed in place did not flee immediately, its trembling body showed that the little guy was indeed afraid of something.

It shouldn't be me. If it were me, this little guy would have gotten into the ground and escaped long ago.After all, everyone knows that grass slimes are timid. If they are really afraid of themselves, let alone letting them get close, these little guys will definitely be scared just by seeing themselves. slipped away.

So, is it fearful of humans as a group?It doesn't seem like it when you think about it. The only people who come and go in the deep forest area of ​​​​Wuwanpo are the people who work at the Rebirth Hall.What could possibly make these little guys so timid?

He tried to take out some of the rations that he originally brought to Cao Tuan Tuan from the dry food and handed them to the three little guys who seemed to be frightened by the unknown objects. Then he took out another portion as a reward for his own Cao Tuan Tuan. After the feeding was completed, The mood of the little guys finally improved.

"Hello, can you tell me what makes you so scared? It doesn't matter if you don't know what it is, just tell me what you saw." Xia Yu tried to get more information from the little guys. Feeling the slight impatience conveyed by the little guys' words, Xia Yu listened carefully.

"Humans in brown and black clothing are very dangerous."

"That's right, the immobile humans who were moved in boxes were burned to powder here!"

"Then humans in brown and black clothing knocked the powder into a small box and buried it in the soil."

...

A few minutes later, after listening to the explanations of several grass slimes, Xia Yu finally understood what these little guys were afraid of.To put it simply, grass slimes are small monsters that live in groups. What is the scene they are most afraid of seeing when they are used to living in groups?There is no doubt that it is cannibalism.

Ever since, the situation of cremating the departed people here in Shengtang appeared in the sight of the little ones.In the eyes of these little guys, burning their sleeping companions to ashes is really terrifying, and it is completely unimaginable that such a situation would happen among slimes.

That's it... Xia Yu laughed when he understood.

This needs to remind Hutao that when cremating in the cemetery area, it is best to change the place so that these little guys can't see it.

After all, these are the little guys sent to live in the Shengtang Cemetery area. If the 'employees' are frightened by Hu Tao, their boss, what if the little guys evacuate en masse?

————————————————————————

After leaving the slightly evil place of Wuwangpo with the five grass slimes found in two batches, Xia Yu once again felt at ease when he returned to the sunshine.

Hutao must have concealed some information related to Wuwangpo. Although he and Cao Tuantuan did not visit the entire forest area of ​​Wuwangpo, Xia Yu always felt that this place was not as simple as he imagined. "Aleph, did you notice anything when you were in Wuwang Slope just now?" Xia Yu asked about the necklace turned from the phaseless thunder around his neck, and immediately received the doubtful emotion coming from the other party.

"Aleph...who is this? Me?" The questioning question immediately made Xia Yu realize that he seemed to have made a preconceived mistake.

That's right, the Formless Thunder has never said its name. Maybe it doesn't struggle with the issue of its name like humans do. It just needs to know that it is a Formless Thunder.

The name Aleph was the result of what I discovered when I borrowed materials from Lisa and looked through them. In other words, the name Aleph is more like a code name given to them by scholars for easy distinction and convenience.

"Well, that's what the scholars on the human side call you." After describing the formless thunder to his heart, Xia Yu immediately found that the formless thunder he wore around his neck lit up, and it flashed with purple light crazily. It seems that he is very dissatisfied with this name.

"Why would I, who is so mysterious and elegant, be named by a human with a name that sounds like a big, thick man?"

Chapter 168: Don’t pick the raspberries in Qingce Village

Xia Yu seemed to be a little angry due to the topic related to the name. Xia Yu could feel that the purple-colored formless thunder hanging in front of his heart was as excited as a cat with exploding fur.Although after returning to the main road, he walked a long distance in the direction of Qingce Village and reached the edge of the bamboo forest, Wuxiang Zhilei's mood, which was still losing his temper, had not completely improved.

This formless thunder gave me the impression that it was like a combination of the personalities of Diona and Keqing. It was full of elegance under normal circumstances, very serious when talking about business, and a little startled when angry. , and has some small grudges. When he is happy, he is always a little hiding on the surface, but his not so good acting skills and exposed emotions always allow him to discover its hidden side at the first time.

It feels very interesting.

"Then what name do you think is better for you?" After asking Wuxiangzhilei, Xia Yu felt that the other party's emotions finally calmed down, and he seemed to be thinking about this issue and calmed down. The phaseless thunder returned to a stable state of purple light.

"I don't know..." After waiting for a while, the voice of Wuxiang Lei entered Xia Yu's mind again.Although this answer did not lead to any results, Xia Yu could feel that there was a sense of matter-of-factness in the other party's tone.

"Because the name is not a way of addressing me. If it is to make it easier to call me in the future, I will think about the name... However, the name Aleph is definitely not acceptable. !" After emphasizing again, Wuxiang Zhilei fell into silence again, seeming to be thinking about this issue seriously.

Although Xia Yu couldn't bear to interrupt the other party's thinking, the feeling of no one talking to him during the journey still made Xia Yu feel a little bored.Although there are three new grass slimes in the team, the grass slimes feel more like two or three-year-old children. They know how to express themselves, but when talking about topics But some didn't know how to answer the call.

Although the emerald green scenery of the bamboo forest is nice, it gets a little boring after I get tired of seeing the bamboo forest along the way...

Xia Yu, who was trying to find a topic to relieve his boredom, had no choice but to turn his attention back to the Wuxiang Lei hanging around his neck, and then said: "Don't worry about the name for the time being. Let's talk about it first and we'll talk about it soon." Let's talk about Inazuma. How do you plan to break through the thunderstorm that surrounds Inazuma?"

Although I have found about a hundred thunder slimes to use as lightning rods, compared to thunder slimes, the formless thunder, a lightning element creature with a higher level of intelligence, is obviously better at breaking through thunderstorms. can play a greater role.

"It's very simple. As long as it has pure thunder element attributes, it can't break through my outer barrier, nor can it cause any damage to my core." The Wuxiangzhi Lei seemed to have a hint of something in his tone when he mentioned the business. Emotions of pride.

"If it is a small ship, I can build a barrier to form a shield that cannot be penetrated by thunder elements and can divert water. If it is a large ship that is beyond the range that I can cover, I can also cooperate with Xia Yu to find the thunder. Slime drains excess thunder elements into the ocean."

Is it like this?The confident tone of Wuxiang Zhilei made Xia Yu feel at ease. In this way, the preparations for heading to Inazuma were all completed. He only had to wait until he had finished looking for grass slimes and interact with Hutao along the way before looking for Li. An acquaintance of Yue helps to connect with the captain named Beidou, and the problem can be solved.

I just don’t know how the crew will react when these more than 100 reslimes are put on the other side’s ship...

After walking out of the bamboo forest area, crossing two wooden cable bridges, and walking up the stone path to an area with a wide view, the beautiful scenery of Qingcezhuang with beautiful mountains and clear waters came into Xia Yu's field of vision.

Blue water flows out from all directions on the mountain and forms a clear lake at your feet. In the terraces built along the river, various crops grow happily, giving people a feeling of vitality.

If you look carefully, you can see that there are a few rock slimes and wind slimes that seem to have grown fat due to environmental reasons in the farmland where the scarecrows are planted. They wander leisurely in the fields and don't look aggressive at all. .

If there's a drawback, it's the wild boars wandering around the terraces.Although the scarecrow plays a certain role in driving away birds, it is of no use to this medium-sized beast.

'Because the geographical location of Qingce Village is too inconvenient, there are not many young people there anymore, and those who stay in Qingce Village are basically the elderly and children. 'After remembering Hutao's introduction to Qingce Village, Xia Yu also understood the main reason why wild boars can wander around the fields unscrupulously.

Even if the combat effectiveness of wild boars is not comparable to that of Warcraft, the combat effectiveness of this medium-sized beast cannot be underestimated. Even adults in their prime without professional training are still quite dangerous when facing wild boars with rough skin and thick flesh. , if you are not careful, you will be seriously injured by the wild boar, and there is even the possibility of death.

I don’t know why, but these wild boars just wandered along the perimeter of the terraces, and did not have fun in the entire terraces.As for why he didn't recruit people to collect these wild boars, Xia Yu believes that this has to do with the geographical location of Qingce Village.

The first is the distance between Qingcezhuang and Liyue Port. Even an adult would need about a week to travel between the two places without considering the possibility of encountering monsters along the way, let alone the elderly with limited mobility. As well as the children.If you take into account the factors of monsters, traveling between the two places will only become more difficult.

Next is the section of road in front of Qingce Village. Although the stone steps up and down from the bamboo forest to where I am now viewing the view show traces of maintenance and replacement of damaged roads, the moss growing on them is still there. .Whether it is the elderly or children, this is a big safety hazard.

Maybe Qingce Village can only help deal with these problems when the Qianyan Army patrols arrive... Although there should be no grass slimes after entering Qingce Village, considering that you live in Qingce Village, The people here must be more familiar with the terrain than he is. After thinking about it for a moment, Xia Yu decided to enter Qingce Village and ask the local residents.

Along the built wooden suspension bridge, we walked all the way across the river and fields to the foot of the Qingce Village built along the mountain. In front of the building that seemed to be the village gate, several children who were playing gathered around with great curiosity after seeing their arrival. come over.

"Strange big brother, are you an adventurer?" The curious eyes of the children looking at Xia Yu were instantly attracted by the grass slime lying on Xia Yu's shoulder.

"Hey! It's actually a slime similar to those in the field!"

"But why does this one have a small tree bud on its head but no small wings? The color is also different. And didn't our grandparents tell us not to mess with the slimes in the fields? Why can Big Brother bring the slimes away? Is it on you?"

After finding out that no conclusion could be drawn, the little guys in the discussion all focused their gazes on Xia Yu, as if waiting for Xia Yu to answer their doubts.

"Yes, I came here to enjoy the scenery while looking for some areas with more vigorous plant growth."

The instructions to children should not be too complicated, as this will not be easy for them to understand. Therefore, you only need to search according to the living environment of grass slimes.

The places where grass slimes live for a long time usually have lush trees. There are also slimes that like a shady environment according to your own needs. You only need to ask about the places that meet these environmental needs, and then search them one by one. That's it.

When searching for these little guys who like to hide, the information obtained from asking adults and children will not differ much in terms of results.

After briefly explaining his purpose to the children, Xia Yu found that the little ones' eyes were full of curiosity and envy when they looked at the grass on his shoulder, and then continued to explain.

"Because slimes also have to be divided into types. For example, the slime on my shoulder is a grass-type slime, and the one with small wings you mentioned is a wind-type slime. In addition, there are six Plant slimes of different colors, but because slimes are dangerous, you should not approach them at will."

The children's nodding movements seemed to indicate that they knew the correctness of what they said. In just a few seconds, a little boy who spoke confirmed his suspicion.

"That's right! Grandpa and grandma also warned us like this, and even the wild boars in the fields dare not approach them casually. They must be quite powerful..." After saying this, the little boy looked at Xia Yu and his eyes became more serious. of envy. "I didn't expect that slimes with such an appearance can come in eight different colors. I will definitely go and see it when I grow up..."

"By the way, big brother, you came to Qingce Village to find a place with lush trees, right?" After the novelty wore off, the little guys who muttered seemed to have remembered Xia Yu's question, and then they all looked at each other. The ground pointed in the northwest direction of Qingce Village.

"The plants near the waterfall over there are growing quite vigorously. They should be able to meet the location you are looking for, big brother. However, my grandparents also said that there are always many bad people hiding there, so they usually don't let us get close, big brother. You must be careful when you go there.”

————————————————————————

After giving the children some snacks as a thank you, Xia Yu continued to act based on the information he received, aiming his target in the northwest direction of Qingce Village.Locations on the shady side where plants grow vigorously will indeed meet your search requirements based on the results alone.

But who is the bad guy the children are talking about?A member of the Fools?As far as the recent events in Liyue Port are concerned, from the perspective of ordinary people in Liyue, the members of the Fools of the Winter Kingdom led by Dadalia who have done a lot of harm to Liyue Port are indeed worthy of the The title of bad guy.

But what are these stupid people doing here?As a holy place for retirement in Liyue, Qingce Zhuangdan looks like it has nothing of value at all. The scale of the farmland also shows that they are just a group of old people and children who simply enjoy a self-sufficient life. They are not at all as wealthy as Liyue Port. .

Could it be that he came here for the sealed monster mentioned by Hu Tao?As soon as the strange thought emerged, Xia Yu suppressed it himself.

No... Dadalia finally spent a lot of money to maintain the relationship between Winter Solstice Kingdom and Liyue, and then released the demon god Osel. Then he came here to release unknown monsters completely. There was no need. Their target, Zhongli's Heart of God, had already been taken away. There should be no need for such a thankless act.

However, when he saw the fat blue and white figure wearing the battle uniform of the Fools standing next to the field, Xia Yu was stunned.

He is really a member of the Fools!The Ice Gun heavy guard standing next to the field looked very sneaky from the back. Judging from the relaxed energy of his softly humming tune, it seemed that the fat advance team member was picking something. Very happy.

"Hey, hello, are you resting here in Qingce Village?" Considering that he had a pretty good relationship with the members of the advance team in the Liyue area, Xia Yu greeted the fat advance team member without hesitation.Xia Yu couldn't help but smile when he saw the other party's eagerness as he turned around quickly after being startled.

The ice gun heavy guard who finally turned around was visibly relieved when he saw it was Xia Yu. "It turns out to be Mr. Xia Yu. I really thanked you in the layered rock abyss." After greeting Xia Yu, the ice gun heavy guard showed Xia Yu the orange raspberry in his hand.

"I heard from my companion stationed here in Liyue Port that the fruits here in Qingce Village are growing very well, especially the wild raspberries, so I came over to take a look during my break this week, and it turned out to be exactly what he said. "The Fool members who took off their masks showed happy smiles and handed the raspberries in their hands to Xia Yu.After regaining consciousness, the Ice Gun heavy guard picked another raspberry from the bush and ate it happily.

"Mr. Xia Yu, why are you here? If you can help me, just ask me..." Just as the fat guard said this, two approaching shadows in the sky made Xia Yu and the ice gun heavy guard turn around. Overdone.

Isn't this Ying and Gan Yu?The familiar figures made Xia Yu feel a little curious. What were they doing here?

Chapter 169: Paimon said it! I didn’t do anything.

Five pairs of eyes looked at each other from a distance of less than one meter. An atmosphere of silence permeated the three blond girls. Ying and Paimon looked at Xia Yu who was staying with the Fool members with puzzled eyes. His eyes were full of disbelief.

"Xia Yu, why are you hanging out with a bunch of fools?" the straight-tempered Paimeng asked directly without thinking. "What are you doing occupying Qingce Zhuang Luye's warehouse?"

ha?Paimon's words made Xia Yu feel completely confused. He came to find some grass slimes around Qingce Village. After seeing the members of the Fools' advance team, he came over to say hello. The two of them shared a few familiar slimes. raspberry.Why was he beaten into a villain who occupied the warehouse?

Let alone occupying the warehouse, I don't even know where the warehouse is. How can I occupy it?Or is it that the entire Qingce Village is a warehouse for the elderly and children of Qingce Village, and picking a wild raspberry is considered theft?

"Wait a minute, you have to speak clearly now!" Xia Yu, who felt that he had been wronged, was a little unconvinced. "Is the warehouse you are referring to the entire land of Qingce Village? Are these wild raspberries what you are talking about in the warehouse?"

Showing the half-eaten raspberry in his hand to the three people who were looking at him, Xia Yu continued: "I was entrusted by Hutao to find some grass slimes to bring to her. The members of the Ninth Company came here during their recent vacation to find some fruits to taste.”

"The members of the original Ninth Company who were jointly commissioned by Liyue and Zhidong Kingdom to conduct investigations under the Layer Rock Abyss had met Zhongli and Ruotuo Dragon King, so they also knew what the members of the Ninth Company were like. With his character, I’m sure he’s not like the person you say can occupy a warehouse.”

That's right, the biggest characteristic of the former members of the Ninth Company is that they obey orders from their superiors, even to the point of being foolishly loyal.In other words, nearly half of the soldiers in the Fools' advance team have such a character.They may do many things on their own country's side because of orders from their superiors, but this will definitely not happen to Dadalia's troops in Liyue at present.

First of all, from the perspective of the mission, getting back the Heart of God from the Rock King means that his mission has been completed, although Dadalia was deceived by the lady and Zhongli himself to act according to the script during the entire process.Furthermore, Liyue is the largest ore-producing country in Teyvat. In order to maintain this trade relationship, it is extremely necessary to establish diplomatic relations with Liyue.

The last part is the most important point, value.If the monsters suppressed in Qingce Village are liberated like the liberation of Auxerre, the Liyue side will definitely suffer in the end.Under the premise of needing to maintain relationships and not getting any reward after doing bad things, no one would do such a thing as long as they are not pessimistic destroyers.

"If you falsely accuse people randomly, the food for the past few days will be gone~" What Xia Yu said with a smile made Ying and Paimeng stunned.

This... Ying Na, who originally wanted to refute why Xia Yu wanted to protect the members of the Fools, was already on her lips, but she forcefully swallowed it.

Indeed, after experiencing the incidents involving Wendy and Liyue Port Osel, my impression of the Fools' executives and members of the advance team was extremely bad.The only thing that has changed my impression recently is what Dardalia did when her youngest brother Tok came to visit, when she tried her best to protect her brother's childhood dream.

Even if you lose face, you still have to maintain your child's beautiful childhood fantasy, and the last huge ruin guard factory, which was definitely not used to maintain ruin guards in the beginning.How much effort has gone into transforming a factory full of iron and blood into a child's amusement park...

The Layer Rock Abyss itself was mentioned by the miners in Liyue. It was said that it became too dangerous after being occupied by monsters, so development was abandoned.The soldiers of the Qianyan Army who were guarding Liyue at the level leading to the Layer Rock Abyss were also unwilling to let him pass.

Until now, Zhongli has not returned to Liyue, and Dragon King Ruotuo has not appeared in his Chensong Pot, which means that they should still be doing something underground in the layered rock abyss.According to the storytellers in Liyue, this rocky abyss is the hometown of Dragon King Ruotuo. The members of the Fools who were able to be released by Zhongli and Dragon King Ruotuo... Could it be that I really made a mistake in my judgment?

But Gan Yu's experience and perception are also very accurate... It can be seen from her judgment of what the merchants of the two chambers of commerce have done.

Both sides are friends, and I am the one caught in the middle.However, the situation was different from the last time he was looking for his relatives. This time, Ying quickly determined his position.

"I haven't said anything yet, Xia Yu, if you want to punish, then punish Paimon." The little guy floating in mid-air was dumbfounded when he sold Paimon without any hesitation.

That's right, you have to ask questions clearly before making a final conclusion, right?What's more, if the warehouse is occupied, you only need to go to the warehouse to check.

What's more, Gan Yu's situation today is a bit strange. Compared with usual days, Gan Yu is a little too anxious and out of state today.Although she is indeed good at judging and dealing with tax evasion by businessmen, she was a little too anxious both in her previous practice and now.

It was as if he was proving himself...and there were indeed three more grass slimes around Xia Yu. This couldn't be faked.

"But..."

"Okay Gan Yu, based on my understanding of Xia Yu, he will not lie to others about this kind of thing. If he is really the kind of person with ulterior motives, your master Liu Yun Jiefeng Zhenjun will let him Do you want to practice in your own cave?"

"Xia Yu, let's continue to the warehouse to see what's going on. If it is indeed Paimeng who has wrongly blamed you, I will tell you and punish her afterwards. Remember to make more delicious food these days. ~" The blonde girl dragged Gan Yu, who was still struggling, with her left hand, and held the petrified Paimeng under her right arm with Xia Yu, smiled and left.

"This... what are they doing? Are they your friends, Mr. Xia Yu?" The trio came and went in a hurry, leaving the ice gun heavy guard who was watching the whole process a little confused. It seemed that it was because of the previous paragraph. Because he had been spending time underground in the Great Rock Abyss, this fat member of the advance team of Fools did not seem to know that Ying had become famous due to the Tvarin and Osel incidents during this period.

"Indeed, you are my friend. They seem to regard you as a villain who occupied Qingcezhuang's warehouse because of what the Fools did in Liyue." After explaining, Xia Yu found that the other party had a dumbfounded expression on his face.

The Ice Gun heavy guard scratched the top of his head and looked extremely embarrassed. After holding it in for a long time, the Ice Gun heavy guard finally understood what happened and said: "So...I was almost treated as a prisoner by them just now. "Dun, right?" Looking at Xia Yu who nodded, the aggrieved expression on the face of the Ice Gun heavy guard seemed like he was about to cry.

"This is too unfair! On the way to Qingcezhuang, I did see a dilapidated and unattended small wooden room that was dusty inside. You said that I have nothing to do to occupy such a suffering place. What? Where is the fun of picking such naturally ripe raspberries and eating them..."

————————————————————————

This small episode was quickly regarded by Xia Yu as a fun fact to spice up the day.Continuing along the grassland to the northwest of the waterfall, after ascending several steep slopes, the voice of the Formless Thunder rang in my mind.
