The cultivation record of the original demon in Teyvat continent

"Xia Yu, the method of using Tai Sword in my school ultimately emphasizes the combination of elemental power and sword skills. Therefore, the basic part of how to use Tai Sword is extremely important... Therefore, Xia Yu, your task today is Understand the basic stance of tachi jutsu and the feeling of swinging the sword.”

After finishing the meal, General Raiden began to explain the basics of the sword technique he used. His expression was extremely serious, and the content of each sentence was recognized by Xia Yu, who was listening attentively.

Indeed, tall buildings rise from the ground.Because he has studied cooking, Xia Yu fully understands how important the basics are to a craft.Looking at General Thunder and Lightning, who was standing with his feet a short distance apart, Xia Yu's eyes began to search left and right.

Since it is a basic practice of tachi, the instrument used should be like the bamboo swords that were often seen on TV in the past.

However, General Raiden's outfit with large fur sleeves made it obvious how many weapons she carried. She only had a naginata on her back. Where did she put the bamboo sword she used for practice?Xia Yu, who was searching for teaching aids, immediately attracted the attention of General Thunder.

"Xia Yu, since teaching has started, you need to concentrate."

General Thunder and Lightning, who softly scolded Xia Yu, seemed a little angry. Xia Yu nodded immediately when he saw this scene, and then immediately asked the doubts that were bothering him. "Understood, it's just General...Master, where is the bamboo sword I will use for practice later?"

"No, compared to bamboo swords, I personally agree that it is easier to practice using real swords." In Xia Yu's doubtful eyes, General Thunder placed his right hand directly above his chest...

Xia Yu was so surprised that General Thunderbolt drew his sword that he could not speak. He stared blankly at the purple sword that appeared in the opponent's hand. In terms of the appearance of the sword, this sword was not too long. You will understand that it is definitely a magic weapon.

This is where the sword is held, this... this is really the sword that I can touch! ? ?Will he really not be beaten to death?

General Lei Dian, who held the back of the blade with both hands, pointed the direction of the handle towards himself, and then continued to explain: "Xia Yu, use your dominant hand to hold the handle of the knife close to the tangent, with your index finger slightly touching the tangent, and the other hand Wrap one hand around the end of the knife handle, leaving a little distance between your little finger and the tiger's mouth of both hands to ensure that they are in a straight line and let them be directly above the bamboo knife..."

General Thunderbolt, who was explaining the posture of holding the sword, made Xia Yu understand the basic posture of holding the sword in a few words. It's just this sword... that's all!She didn't feel embarrassed about General Thunder. What was she still thinking about here?After adjusting the position of holding the knife little by little according to the other party's instructions, Xia Yu felt a little uncomfortable due to the slightly awkward feeling.

Compared with the heavy weapons he liked to use before, this tachi, which is slightly longer than one meter but not 1.5 meters, feels a bit light in his hand.The second is the discomfort of holding a knife in this position for the first time. It should take some time to get used to it.

"Yes, this is the basic posture for holding a knife, and then control your feet and body. Slightly pull your feet left and right to the same width as your shoulders, and then take a small half step back and forth. Feel this The feeling of being completely stable and not shaking when standing..." Using himself as a demonstration to show Xia Yu how to stand, General Thunder and Lightning, who laid out the basic structure, carefully observed Xia Yu's every move as he adjusted his stance.

Sure enough, General Thunder didn't care at all about how the sword was pulled out, so he shouldn't worry about this issue all the time.After adjusting his stance bit by bit, Xia Yu continued to carefully follow General Thunder and learn to hold the sword in front of his heart in a mid-section posture. Then he did not rush to draw the sword, but carefully felt the movement of the sword. The feeling of strength in every part of the body under the posture.

It turns out that if you fight with this posture, you will not be easily swept to the ground by the opponent who can seize the flaw to ensure your body stability. At the same time, the appropriate distance between your feet left and right also ensures that you The consistency and quickness of small steps when moving forward and backward.

The next step should be the connection of the basic swinging sword postures that are often seen in movies and TV shows. As a structure for beginners to learn tachi, this is the most common way for novices to find the feeling of swinging the sword.Sure enough, after correcting the flaws in his movements, General Thunder continued to explain how to swing the sword.

"Xia Yu, next let your shoulders relax and sink, maintain a straight line on the vertical surface and raise the sword. Never let the blade deviate from the center line of the body. When swinging down the sword, keep your elbow close to the original position of the sword. The angle of the body must not be open to both sides. You first try to slowly move your hands up and down to find this feeling. I will remind you when you make a mistake and make adjustments to your posture."

After finishing the explanation, General Leiden walked to the side of Xia Yu. He observed the stretching and contraction of Xia Yu's muscles when he swung the sword and put force on his body. From time to time, he raised his hand to support Xia Yu's arm and returned his hands to the center line. General Leiden showed this during his teaching. Showing an extremely serious side.

After practicing just the basic middle part of the sword swing for about half an hour, Xia Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief after finally adjusting his posture to General Thunder's initial satisfaction.

Even if it is just the most basic and useless basic sword swing method that is often seen in movies and TV shows, it has taken me so long to reach the passing line of General Raiden. The next step is to familiarize myself with this step by step according to General Raiden. Movement, to appreciate how the whole body's power is driven by the body when the knife is swung from the front.

Carefully feeling the force of every part of his body and arms when the sword was swung, Xia Yu, who felt that he was a little more coordinated, focused on the sword again after swiping it nearly a hundred times.

"Feel with your heart the subtle difference in the strength of the arms when the sword is swung. In the end, Xia Yu, you need to be able to quickly change the structure to attack or counterattack the enemy no matter what height the sword is swung to." Leiden The general's voice reached Xia Yu's ears again.

Hmm... Close your eyes and feel the feeling of wielding the sword with your heart... Xia Yu, who was trying according to General Raiden's words, found that a string of unknown sounds came into his mind.

'Fried dough sticks, soy milk, steamed buns, and shaomai, I want to eat...' The female voice that seemed to be muttering to herself with a sense of grievance made Xia Yu a little confused.

These are just the breakfast I had just now...Why do I feel such a thing when I feel the feeling of swinging a knife?

Chapter 184 General Thunder: Got it, I’ll let you have lunch

"Concentrate! Use your heart to feel the direction of the entire blade when you swing the sword, and don't be distracted by distracting thoughts!" It seemed that he noticed that Xia Yu was distracted, and the Thunderbolt General who stopped talking made Xia Yu immediately come back to his senses.

This... I heard that inexplicable noise because I felt it with my heart... After smiling awkwardly, Xia Yu, who began to think about General Thunder and Lightning's words, seemed to understand something.

It turns out that this is increasing the difficulty of training!After all, my physical fitness is good now. If I just practice swinging a knife like ordinary people, the difficulty will be a bit low.

That's why General Leiden allowed himself to carefully feel the sword that seemed to have a sword spirit. This was to change the direction and let the sword spirit interfere with himself mentally.All you need to do is to block these feelings while feeling the coordination between your entire body and the slight movement of the sword.

Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude according to different situations, General Thunder is really a good teacher!In this way, I have to concentrate even more on practicing.

But then again, this sword spirit is really greedy~

After adjusting his posture again and returning to the basic structure in the middle, Xia Yu closed his eyes and took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Xia Yu completely calmed down his originally agitated heart.

As a professional chef, in addition to mastering a lot of theoretical knowledge of cooking and good basic skills, what is the most critical thing?There is no doubt that it is the concentration of forgetting the external environment and immersing yourself in your work when cooking.

You know, the kitchen is not a quiet place.The rumbling sound of the blower, the stainless steel gas stove when running at full speed, and the roar of the large range hood overhead when working are comparable to the roar of an airplane engine.

There are also loud noises from the batching department communicating with the kitchen chefs and the food delivery department. The overall sound in the kitchen is no different from the bustling market or construction site.To work in such an environment, practicing without a little concentration is very likely to make mistakes while cooking.

Giving up thinking about the location of General Leiden's sword, and blocking out all the grievances of the sword spirit, Xia Yu immersed himself in training and started to wave the sword in his hand according to General Leiden's explanation.

Once or twice, Xia Yu felt extremely awkward due to the initial incongruity of his body's stance, pace, and swinging the knife to maintain a neutral position, and his swinging speed was also very slow.But Xia Yu didn't feel discouraged.

This feeling is exactly the same as when I first held a kitchen knife. Each clumsy cut made one end thick and the other thin due to the sliding of the ingredients, and the width was extremely difficult to meet the standard of the qualified line.This situation is completely normal.

Is there anything that can’t be mastered step by step through slow cultivation?

Xia Yu, who devoted himself wholeheartedly to his practice, made General Thunder and Lightning, who was supervising, nod.Although Xia Yu's age and appearance are already past the best stage of cultivation according to human standards, she can feel the majestic power in his body that is like a new life.

There must have been some adventure that changed his physique. If Xia Yu continues to practice with him in his current state, his strength will inevitably transform before long.

Xia Yu further improved her ability to protect herself, and Ying felt the similar aura of heavenly principles that she expected to be beneficial to Dao's wife. She could also taste more delicious food. Why not kill three birds with one stone? Woolen cloth?

"Okay, that's it for the morning's practice." Xia Yu gradually found the feeling of waving and was able to coordinate the movement of his body at the same time, which greatly impressed General Thunder.

The moment he took Dream Yishin from Xia Yu's hand, General Thunder confirmed his idea even more.Even a holder of the Eye of God would feel weak after a whole morning of basic training, but Xia Yu's hands that returned his dreams wholeheartedly didn't even tremble slightly. Such physical fitness must have brought some adventure.

"You wielded a total of more than 5000 knives this morning. From the beginning, when your whole body was uncoordinated and the blade could not maintain the neutral position, to now you are able to swing the weapon quickly and quickly. How does it feel?" General Thunder and Lightning asked Xia Yu with a very serious expression.

"I feel that from the beginning, I couldn't grasp the rhythm, but now the coordination between the body and the knife has improved. As I become more proficient in swinging, I am gradually able to grasp the basic posture. Although I can't stop at any height, I still can't stop at any height. I will continue to work hard." After explaining his feelings, Xia Yu was still curious about the sound he heard when he first started training.

"Excuse me, is there a sword spirit inside this sword?" After thinking about it for a while, Xia Yu decided to ask the question. "The first time I was distracted was because I heard a female voice coming from the knife while feeling the swing of the knife, and she kept talking about breakfast this morning..."

This... Although Xia Yu didn't know what this was about, it was different for General Thunder.Because General Thunder himself was the initiator of this result.

As a result, after the dream that Ying lived in was handed over to Xia Yu's hands for a suitable reason, he didn't feel the aura of heaven at all. Instead, he thought about it all morning.

"Ying, you wasted a whole morning." General Yu and Lightning reminded Ying in his heart, with a tone full of hatred for steel.General Thunder and Lightning, who thought that Ying would reflect on his actions, found that in less than ten seconds, Ying's words full of resentment were conveyed to his heart.

"In terms of the technique of using Tai Sword alone, I want to be better than you. Logically speaking, I should also be the one to guide Xia Yu's Tai Sword technique. Yesterday's dinner was tasted by you, and today's breakfast was taken away by General Thunder and you for some reason... ." Kage, who turned on the grudge mode, began to detail the unfair treatment he had received in the past two days one by one.The angry tone was like that of a wronged little daughter-in-law who had been tortured by her husband's family.

"Also, I have already felt that you want to monopolize today's lunch again!" Ying, whose resentment had reached the limit, made General Raiden fall into silence for a short time.

"Okay... But Ying, you are not interested in the cooking process. I will exchange ideas with you after I finish observing Xia Yu's cooking process. But in this way, the problem of wear and tear..."

"It's just a meal, and it's still in a different space. No! Questions!" The shadow that interrupted General Thunder's words was on the verge of going berserk.

It seems that I went too far when designing the Thunder and Lightning General, leaving no room or way out for myself. The result was that when there was a conflict with my original wish, I was bound to have to fight against the Thunder and Lightning General. A battle of wits and courage...

My heart is so tired, my heart is so tired!

After training all morning, Xia Yu returned to Huzhong Cave and was thinking about what food to make. He thought about the breakfast situation and felt a little embarrassed for a while.

In terms of results alone, the acceptance of the Chinese-style breakfast Thunderbolt General is also very good. In this case, does the lunch preparation need to be more diverse?Or should you continue to cook according to the taste of Japanese cuisine?

Let's ask. Thinking of this, Xia Yu turned his head and looked at General Thunder and Lightning, who was standing beside him and observing silently, and then asked: "General, do you have any requirements for the taste of lunch?"

Lunch flavor?After hearing Xia Yu's question, General Thunder thought seriously.

Although judging from the final result, it was Ying who tasted the food and not him, but after all, he had tasted it twice, and judging from the situation in the morning, Ying's acceptance of other national cuisines in Teyvat should be pretty good. Yes, let Xia Yu cook his specialty dishes for this lunch as compensation for Ying.

"Don't pay too much attention to me. What I want more is to observe the unity of spirit, energy and spirit that Xia Yu shows when you cook. As for the result of cooking, just cook what you think you are best at." Tan Ran The thunder general who answered shocked Xia Yu.

Tasting a person's specialty food, although this sounds fine in itself, but... what I am best at is spicy food!

If Inazuma's taste is really similar to that of a certain Japanese food country, a little bit of spiciness would be exciting enough for Raiden Shogun. For example, when locals eat dishes that are spicy and refreshing, it will be spicy enough to suffocate. Feeling...

Is there really no need to change dishes?Xia Yu, who was about to ask a question, nodded after seeing General Thunder's firm eyes.

Maybe this is the warrior's insistence... Let's have two dishes and one soup. The meat dish is made of boiled beef, and it is paired with a stir-fried lotus root vermicelli. These two dishes are not high-end but are particularly delicious. I like them. Areas that eat spicy food are quite popular.

As for this soup, there is still some leftover from yesterday’s premium clear soup, so let’s add some fungi to make a matsutake soup.

————————————————————————

Thomas, I finally found you!The blond girl with thick dark circles under her eyes and her white-haired friend pushed open the door of the Mu leak tea room. Looking at the Mu leak tea room just around the corner, Ying, who was out of breath, felt extremely angry.

With the help of the eldest daughter of the Hiiragi family, he finally successfully left the outlying island after receiving the letter delivery request. After a bumpy journey and finally arrived at Inazuma Castle, he first sent the eldest daughter of the Hiiragi family to someone like him without saying a word. The love letter was given to Kujo Kamaharu, the second young master of Tianling.Then he hurried over to the Mu Le Teahouse.

Hiding his identity, he never told himself that he was a follower of Princess Egret, who was worshiped by the society. He even deliberately set a test for himself to see if he could successfully leave the island.Because of these things, I was full of resentment but didn't even return to the cave in the pot. Now I finally had to see Thomas again, and I had a good time arguing with him.

There was also Xia Yu. She walked back and forth in Daozuma City but could not see him. Contacted by the decaying situation on the outlying island, the blond girl began to worry about Xia Yu's situation again.

There was no time to continue complaining... The blond girl looking around in the wooden leak tea room could not see anyone except the fat dog squatting on the front counter.

"Thomas! Come out!" Paimon shouted, startling the dog sitting in the stands, and the dog started barking at Paimon, which startled Paimon, and then He immediately flew and hid behind Ying.

"Toma, let's wait for a while before joking. I have something urgent here." Ying, with a very serious face, asked Tuoma who was originally hiding behind to stand up.

It's finally out!The blond girl with a somewhat urgent look in her eyes immediately asked Toma: "Toma, do you know Xia Yu's current location?"

Xia Yu?Thomas, who frowned and began to think, seemed to have remembered something. "Are you talking about the man who arrived with you and Liyue's eldest sister? Don't worry, his current condition may be much better than yours."

Is that so?Then you can rest assured.Ying, who breathed a sigh of relief and turned around as if ready to leave, was a little stunned by Toma.

This is how the same thing?Traveler Ying and her companions came to Inazuma with the goal of looking for General Raiden, but what about now?After asking about Xia Yu's condition, she turned around and wanted to leave!The script I expected was totally wrong!

He brought Ying to the club to carry out the task assigned to him personally by the eldest lady of the Kamisato family and one of his superiors, the White Egret Princess Kamisato Ayaka. Once Ying left, his mission would have failed. The punishment I received was for trivial matters, but I couldn’t explain it to the eldest lady...

"Wait for the traveler!" Thomas, who greeted him and stopped, became anxious. "Traveler, aren't you here to see General Thunder and Lightning? My eldest lady must have a way for you to meet General Thunder and Lightning."

"Indeed, I came to Inazuma because I had something to do and wanted to see General Inazuma's Thunder, but what's more important to me now is rest." Pointing to the thick black circles around his eyes, a picture full of complaints expression.

"In order to get to Inazuma Castle as early as possible, I haven't slept in the past two days! Now that the emergency has been ruled out, I must first ensure the quality of my sleep!" Thomas also wanted to say something. Saying goodbye, Ying, who activated the Chensong Pot to enter the passage, dragged her tired body into the cave in the pot.

....Eh! ? ?Isn’t this Xia Yu!

The familiar aroma of cooking made Ying and Paimon turn their heads. Then, Ying was stunned by the purple-haired woman sitting at the dining table tasting the food and Xia Yu beside her.Judging from the situation at the scene, it seems that Xia Yu invited this woman to the cave in the pot.

Who is this woman who stays in the cave of her own pot and tastes the dishes made by Xia Yu! ?Just when Ying was about to say something, the purple-haired woman whose eyes were slightly red from the spicy food looked over. The purple-haired woman who originally seemed a little weak because of the pepper suddenly became much more serious when she saw her.

This person is so vicious!But this is my Chensong Pot. Is it really okay for you to do this?

Chapter 185: The first meeting between Ying and Ying, the trip to Inazuma Castle.

What is going on with this woman?This Chensong Pot belongs to me, and it is like a home to me. How can anyone be able to endure being attacked by a strange visitor in their own home?Ying feels that at least he is absolutely unable to do it.

"Xia Yu, who is this rice wife's woman?" The feeling of being stared at fiercely made Ying extremely unhappy. Ying came to the dining table angrily and sat down on the seat next to her with a snap, and then observed Started cooking on the table.

A thick layer of red oil floats on the surface of a cooked beef dish, and you can smell the spiciness from a distance. Although the smell of it already stimulates the secretion of saliva like crazy, this dish has a strong pungent taste. It’s a bit hard to accept for myself, let alone those people I observed in Inazuma who have basically never eaten spicy food.

The same goes for the stir-fried dishes on the side. The spiciness of the air-dried Jueyun peppers that should have been heated to brown with hot oil has definitely fully penetrated. Two spicy dishes plus a hot soup. No wonder this rice-wife woman’s face turns red after eating.After observing the situation, Yingying felt secretly happy.

Hehe hehe~ You can't eat spicy food and you still try to challenge Xia Yu's spicy food. Now you are looking like a sweaty mess! This is what you will end up with!

For some reason, Xia Yu was caught off guard by Ying and General Thunder, whose eyes became tense.What happened?This is the first meeting between Ying and General Raiden, right... Why do they look like they are about to fight?

"Ying, this is the God of Thunder of Daozu, also known as the Thunder and Lightning General among Daozu people. Didn't you say you have a question you want to ask her?" After explaining to the blond girl, Xia Yu quickly looked at the person who seemed to be because of General Raiden, who was hissing slightly while cooking spicy food, then explained to General Raiden: "This is the holder of the Dust Song Pot, Ying."

Xia Yu, who tried his best to keep the conversation focused on issues that the two of them cared about more, and tried to ease the tension, breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the smell of gunpowder between their eyes was not that strong.

After all, this was the first time they met, so it was relatively easy to mediate. Xia Yu, who had calmed down for the time being, handed over the right to speak to the two of them, and then sat quietly aside and waited.

what! ? ?

The unbelievable situation made the blond girl's eyes widen as she stared blankly at the purple-haired young woman in front of her. She could never have imagined that she was Inazuma's God of Thunder.

It felt so different from Wendy and Zhongli... After adjusting her surprised mood for a moment, the blond girl who was sitting on the seat fell into confusion.

What is your ultimate goal in Teyvat?In the final analysis, he wanted to leave this world and continue traveling together with his brother who woke up at least 500 years before him.

But the problem now is that his brother has been found by himself. It seems that because of the kingdom called Kanreia that was destroyed by the Seven Gods 500 years ago, his brother who does not want to leave this world is fighting with Tianli. He rose up and even became one of the leaders of the Abyss Cult, a group that everyone in Teyvat talked about and frowned upon.

At the suggestion of his brother, he embarked on this path of witnessing and exploring the continent of Teyvat. If there are any questions to ask this rice-wife god of thunder now, it would only be questions related to Kanria.

"Excuse me, what happened to Kanreia 500 years ago? Why was it destroyed by the seven rulers of Teyvat?" Ying, who tried to ask General Thunder and Lightning, found out that when asked about this, he was talking. Compared to Wendy, who skipped haha, and Zhongli, who kept silent, the Thor in front of her seemed to be trying her best to endure something. She looked extremely angry with a cold look in her eyes.

Tough luck!It seems that this topic is also taboo for the other party. He mentioned something that shouldn't be mentioned, and it happened to be a surprise!

Judging from the current situation, rather than allowing myself to continue asking questions here, it is better to evacuate temporarily.

"Well, if you don't want to explain, forget it...haha..." Imitating Wendy, she stood up from her seat with an awkward smile. Feeling extremely guilty, Ying quickly pointed to her small building behind her, and then He quickly said: "I'm sorry, it took me too long to travel today, so I'm going to bed first!" Without waiting for General Thunder to react, he made up his mind and ran into his house like a whirlwind.

This...

The blond girl who seemed to have evacuated due to a guilty conscience caused Xia Yu to not know what to say for a moment. He turned his attention back to General Thunder and Lightning, who had his head buried, and planned to say something to ease Xia Yu's current awkward and tense atmosphere. I found that the expression on General Thunder's face became more determined.

"Xia Yu, if I'm not mistaken about the elemental power of your friend, she doesn't have the Eye of God, right?" I didn't expect such a big discovery. Originally, after the exchange with General Thunder, Ying Lian, who was still complaining that General Thunder had tricked him again, looked at Xia Yu with a much more serious expression.

"Ah?" I didn't understand why General Thunder would ask this question. After thinking about Ying's outfit, Xia Yu nodded.Indeed, Ying did not wear the Eye of God, and Paimon, who was following Ying, once boasted to himself that it was rare for Ying to be able to use the power of elements without the Eye of God.

"Yes, Ying can indeed use the power of elements without the Eye of God. Is there any problem with this?" After answering the other party's question, Xia Yu looked at the other party and looked at the small building where Ying lived, and his eyes gradually changed. Got fierce.

"Xia Yu, your friend can use the power of elements without the Eye of God. This is an extremely special existence, which means that she has countless uncertainties. In other words, she has nothing to do with eternity. The furthest apart.”

"The last thing Inazuma needs is an existence that can stir up trouble and threaten eternity." After explaining this, Ying clenched his fists. "Tell her that this is the other person's other space. I have no right and no need to interfere with her. But if she dares to step into Inazuma's territory and I find her, I will build her into a statue! "

General Thunder and Lightning showed obvious hostility, which made Xia Yu feel at a loss.

Although General Raiden didn't know her current location on the Teyvat continent, he was different. She was Inazuma who arrived with him on Beidou's ship.Although he and Ying separated later and lost each other's specific location due to Tianling's religious beliefs, she must still be with Dao Wife now.
