Start daily card draw from Genshin Impact

After possessing the power of the element of fire, he felt like he had finally completed a puzzle and successfully activated the power that should have belonged to him a long time ago.

"The element of fire, recipes, and the concept of 'leftovers master'..." Muttering, Yu Qi's gaze once again fell on the mark in his body.

Ning Xin felt the changes it brought to herself, and Yu Qi could feel that this mark was not complete.

In other words, he was not able to master the complete "cooking" power.

The "cooking" he now mastered was forcibly pieced together by adding the power of the fire element to the power of the recipe, and finally catalyzed by the concept of "leftovers master".

The genuine "cooking" power should be a combination of three-star fire elemental power, three-star "cooking" skills and three-star complete "recipe" ability, which are sublimated into the "cooking" power.

And now, even the fire elemental power that is closest to the requirements of Yu Qi is merely inherited from Yingda, one of the immortal Yakshas. Although the quality has reached two stars, the quantity... can only be said to be far from it.

Not to mention other abilities...

I haven't drawn a single "cooking" skill yet, nor have I drawn a single "recipe" ability. There are only two recipes derived from the "recipe" ability.

If it weren't for the essentially transcendent concept of "leftovers master" that forcibly made up for the missing parts, Yu Qi would never have been able to obtain the power of "cooking".

However, because it is a power that was forcibly pieced together, it naturally cannot be flawless.

To be precise, the scope of his current "cooking" power is similar to the concept of "leftovers master", which is limited to the field of "leftovers"!

It is not like the "fire" that Xiangling has understood. Even if it is so weak that it can only be used with the help of rice crust to barely reduce the time consumed in cooking, it can still be used in the cooking of any dish.

Yu Qi was not disappointed by this. In fact, being able to obtain the power of "cooking" was already a pleasant surprise, and there was no need to ask for too much from anything else.

Anyway, the meat has already rotted in the pot, so it doesn’t matter if I eat it later. It tastes pretty good just to smell it now.

"Besides, if it's just leftovers, it doesn't seem too bad!"

Leftovers, as the name suggests, refer to 'leftover food'.

Generally speaking, when this word is mentioned, people may think of messy cups and leftovers.

However, recalling what happened when he obtained the recipe for the 'Strengthening Pill', Yu Qi raised his eyebrows with interest.

After thinking for a while, he turned around and walked back to the previous camp. He sat down and re-lit the campfire. He also took the pot left here by the former miners and put it on the fire.

Looking at the iron pot that was gradually becoming hotter under the licking of flames, Yu Qi flipped it casually, and a large piece of forest pork appeared out of thin air and fell straight into the pot.

Then, water chestnuts, green vegetables, dried shrimps, ham, winter bamboo shoots, eggs and various seasonings were all stuffed in by Yu Qi.

Ignoring the seemingly dire situation in the pot, Yu Qi covered the pot, and then seemed to have given up cooking. He closed his eyes calmly, not paying any attention to the crackling sounds in the pot.

Only the increasingly fierce flames under the pot and the red tongues of fire that suddenly began to move rhythmically seemed to explain something.

Sitting quietly there and waiting for more than a minute, Yu Qi slowly opened his eyes, and the red light in his eyes faded away.

He reached out to open the lid of the pot, and four thumb-sized pills appeared in his field of vision. There was no trace of the large piece of forest pork from before.

Different from the meaty aroma that filled the air when he was refining the 'Blood Recovery Pill' before, this time the Blood Recovery Pill did not smell like the slightest bit of odor, as if they were just a few ordinary small pills.

Without paying attention to the scorching temperature of the pill's surface, Yu Qi picked up a blood-recovering pill and placed it in front of his eyes to look at it for a few seconds, then put it into his mouth without hesitation.

"Gulp~" His throat moved and Yu Qi swallowed the blood-recovering pill easily. After a moment, a satisfied smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Well, the efficacy has increased by more than 50%, which is not bad!" Nodding, Yu Qi looked at the three blood-recovering pills in the pot and thought: "I can give this blood-recovering pill a gimmick of 'fine product' and sell it for 5,000 Mora each. It shouldn't be a problem."

Of course, Yu Qi is not concerned about the so-called "fine blood-recovering pill" now. He pursed his lips slightly, and after the effect of the blood-recovering pill in his body was exhausted, he reached out again to close the lid of the pot.

Then, a faint flame suddenly rose in the furnace, burning the dark bottom of the pot violently. With a slight smile, Yu Qi placed his palm on the pot lid and activated the power of "cooking" without hesitation.

As for whether the "cooking" power, which can only be used to cook leftovers, can be effective against these blood-restoring pills?

"Leftovers, what are leftovers? Isn't it just food that is cooked but not eaten by people?"

From this perspective, the blood-restoring pills in the pot are just leftovers!

He ate a quarter of the food Yu Qi prepared for breakfast, and then stopped eating...

Who dares to say that these blood-restoring pills do not meet the definition of "leftovers"?

Feeling the constant consumption of spiritual and elemental power, Yu Qi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "This consumption...why does it feel like it consumes a lot more elemental power than the power of dream, grass, and thunder?"

"Is this thing a big energy consumer? Tsk, I wanted to use the "cooking" authority more to see if I could research a new "pill recipe"! It seems that I still need to improve my mental power and fire elemental power first."

Although he thought so in his mind, Yu Qi did not stop his actions. He just sat quietly in front of the fire and pressed the lid of the pot. After five minutes, Yu Qi, whose mind was focused on the pot, suddenly had an intriguing realization: the leftovers in the pot were already 'heated'.

Subconsciously raising his hand, Yu Qi opened the lid of the pot. The faint heat dissipated, and three pills with completely changed appearances appeared in his sight.

The thumb-sized pill is round all over and the whole pill is blood red. The slightly tipsy morning light shines down from the sky, shining on the clear pill, refracting a large area of ​​deep red blood light, but it is not disgusting, but has a different kind of beauty.

It is like natural blood-colored glass, without any impurities and extremely beautiful.

With a hint of surprise in his eyes, Yu Qi looked at the blood-recovering pills in the pot, then carefully reached out his hand, pinched one and wanted to pick it up for careful observation.

"Hmm~" Yu Qi paused with his wrist, his expression becoming more and more surprised. He never expected that such a small pill would feel heavier than the same volume of gold.

"This thing... can ordinary people really eat it?" Looking at the pill in his hand with hesitation, Yu Qi had no doubt that if an ordinary person ate it, the consequences would be no better than committing suicide by swallowing gold.

Once swallowed, such a heavy mass would rupture the intestines before digestion, causing death while wailing in pain.

"Hiss~" Such a miserable scene emerged in his mind, and Yu Qi couldn't help but take a breath. He hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and stuffed the pill into his mouth.

"Theoretically, there shouldn't be any problem. Besides, my body should be able to handle it...right?"

However, the next moment, Yu Qi was slightly stunned.

I just felt the pill melting in my mouth, turning into a warm spring flowing into my body.

A faint warm current flowed along the stomach and spread to the limbs and bones, as if searching for the injured parts.

After a moment, it disappeared.

"This feeling, hiss~ The efficacy of the medicine has increased by at least five times?! And the quality has become extremely pure. I'm afraid even immortals and gods can recover quickly if they take this 'blood recovery pill' after being injured."

This can no longer be called an ordinary "pill", but a true "immortal pill" sought after by countless people in Liyue!

"The most important thing is that after taking this blood-recovering pill, the person who consumes it can not only recover quickly from injuries, but also gain a 'quick recovery' buff that can last for 24 hours."

To put it simply, the blood-restoring pills of the past were only a one-time deal. They could indeed quickly heal injuries after taking them, but that was all.

After taking the medicine, if you get injured again, then you will still be the same.

But now it is different. After taking this blood-restoring pill, while it heals the injuries, some of the medicinal effects will remain in the body of the consumer.

If the consumer is injured again within 24 hours, this part of the drug's effect will be activated, allowing the consumer to recover quickly.

Even if it is a fatal injury like a pierced heart, as long as the weapon is pulled out of the wound immediately, the effect of the medicine can barely save the life!

For those who are in dangerous situations or need to fight for a long time, this kind of pill can be said to be an absolute life-saving thing!

"Tsk, this thing, isn't it a bit too much?" Yu Qi smacked his lips and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Even if it is put in the card pool, it can at least be rated as a three-star, right?!"

Of course, the price paid for such powerful drug effects is severely limited production capacity.

Yu Qi roughly estimated the cost of refining this blood-recovering pill, and his originally relaxed brows couldn't help but frown again.

"Refining a blood-recovering pill consumed nearly one-fifth of my elemental power?"

Elemental power is easy to deal with, there are many ways to restore it, but the loss of mental power is the biggest problem. Even with Yu Qi's current mental power, he can only refine two portions a day, and after that there will not be much mental power left!

The most important thing is that after refining the anti-nausea medicine just now, Yu Qi had a vague feeling: he absolutely cannot use the "cooking" power frequently to refine such a powerful pill now.

Otherwise, the incomplete power he had pieced together in front of him would most likely not be able to withstand the pressure and would shatter directly.

As for the frequency...about once a week.

"Wow, it's a defective product, but it actually has a built-in CD? What kind of game skill setting is this!"

After a little complaint, Yu Qi shook his head helplessly, but he didn't feel dissatisfied in his heart. After all, it was a free gift, so there was no need to ask for too much.

Moreover, every seven days you can get four "life-saving elixirs" that are effective even for gods, what else is there to be dissatisfied about? !

Thinking of this, Yu Qi waved his hand and put away the two remaining 'Blood Jade Pills' in the pot... Well, Blood Jade Pill, that was the name he had just given to this kind of pill.

At this moment, Zhongli and Kunjun also finished sightseeing and walked back, followed closely behind them by Lao Dai.

"Everyone, I'm going to rely on you now. Please follow me, and please help find our lost brothers!"

Chapter 168 Keqing is Here

After packing up their luggage, Yu Qi and the others, together with Lao Dai, walked along the road towards the entrance of the Layered Rock Abyss.

From a distance, the Qianyan Army guarding the entrance and exit saw them coming and shouted, "Stop! The Layered Abyss is under martial law now. No one is allowed to leave without permission... Oh, it's you!"

Halfway through the conversation, perhaps because they recognized Zhongli's identity, or perhaps because they remembered that they were travelers who stayed overnight, the Qianyan Army soldiers relaxed a little: "Are you guys, ready to leave?"

"Excuse me for saying so much, but the Abyss has been a bit unstable recently. If you are going out on the road, please be careful." As he said that, he turned his head and saw Lao Dai standing next to Yu Qi. He frowned and said, "Lao Dai, what are you doing here with me? Are you planning to sneak out of the Abyss alone again?!"

Yesterday, due to a momentary negligence, Old Dai sneaked out of the Layered Rock Abyss. The Thousand Rocks soldiers who were on guard had been scolded by the captain. He didn't want to be the next person to be blamed by the captain.

"Well, I..." Facing the stern gazes of the Qianyan Army soldiers, Lao Dai opened his mouth, stammering and unable to speak.

"Oh, actually it's like this~" Seeing this, Zhongli shook his head and took the initiative to explain the whole story.

"That's right. We accepted Lao Dai's commission to help him investigate the missing miners. As for safety, Mr. Yu Qi and I are both holders of the Eye of God, so there should be no problem protecting Lao Dai."

"This..." After listening to Zhongli's explanation and looking at Old Dai with a pleading look on his face, the Qianyan Army soldiers looked a little hesitant.

Just when he was in a dilemma, a tall and burly Qianyan soldier came over from a distance, dressed in military uniform and imposing: "Okay, Bourne, let them go!"

"Ah, Captain Jiaming, why are you here!" Startled by the newcomer, the Qianyan soldier called Bourne quickly stood up straight, and then asked with some concern: "But in this way..."

"Don't worry, the monsters around have been cleared out, so there won't be any big problems." Waving his hand, Jiaming turned to look at Yu Qi and the others, then waved his hand with a smile.

"Also, the messenger bird that was sent to Liyue Harbor has returned. The support team will probably arrive this morning and will search the area around the mine again. If nothing unusual is found, the miners will have to go back to work and continue mining."

"It's a little earlier, nothing to worry about."

"Well, thank you Captain Jiaming for your flexibility." Bowing, Zhongli, Yu Qi, Kunjun and Lao Dai walked out of the abyss one after another.

Then, under the leadership of Lao Dai, they quickly arrived at the mining area.

"Everyone, we're here!" Old Dai stopped and pointed to a shabby shack not far away, where various daily necessities and clothes were scattered around: "This is where we brothers will stay."

"That day, I went back to the mine alone. The nine of them had come back to prepare dinner, but we didn't expect something like that to happen." Old Dai's tone was a little low when he brought up the old things. Although not much expression could be seen on his dark face, one could still feel the self-blame in his heart.

"After that, I asked a few miners who lived nearby but survived the disaster. They said that Aaron and his nine companions did come back here that day. When they were washing and making a fire to cook, they were attacked by the black fog. Then, they disappeared without a trace."

“Nine living people, suddenly disappeared, strange... Is it possible that they were frightened by the black fog and ran away... Fine, just ignore what I said.”

Looking at the speechless Old Dai, Yu Qi shrugged and did not continue speaking. His eyes moved over the daily necessities in the shack.

"Anyway, let's walk around the area first and try to collect clues." Shaking his head, Zhongli didn't say much. After talking to Yu Qi and Kunjun, he took the initiative to walk aside and look around.

Upon hearing this, Kunjun also walked towards the other side where the ore was piled.

Only Yu Qi was still standing there, his eyes constantly scanning the shack in front of him.

Seeing this, Lao Dai was very sensible and did not disturb them. He walked to the side and stood still: "Then thank you very much. I will wait here. You can search at will. If you have any clues about the missing brothers, please tell me!"

The small shack was filled with scattered clothes, and there were daily necessities piled up outside the shack. Yu Qi took a quick inventory and found that there were exactly ten pieces, no more, no less.

Obviously, it belongs to Lao Dai and his group.

He looked at the corner again, and several tool kits scattered on the ground caught Yu Qi's attention. After picking them up and looking at them, he quickly looked up at the empty corner, as if thinking about something.

"Could it be that this is really the case?" Confused, Yu Qi turned his head to look at the campfire that had long been extinguished. There was an iron pot on top of it, and some bowls, chopsticks and ingredients around it.

Walking over, he reached out and opened the lid of the pot, and a half-cooked pot of vegetable soup came into view. There was also a slightly old knife and a half-cut carrot in the pot.

"This is..." Some images seemed to appear in front of him, causing Yu Qi to raise his eyebrows.

After walking around the campfire twice, Yu Qi stopped slightly, with an inexplicable look on his face.

"Tsk, my goodness, he really ran away by himself?!"

Just as he was thinking, Zhongli came over from a distance and asked: "How is it? Have you found any clues?"

"A little bit." Yu Qi pointed to the half-cut radish and knife in the iron pot in front of him and said.

"Look, what happened here is that someone was probably cutting radishes into the pot, and then something happened that caused him to loosen his grip, causing the radishes and the knife to fall into the pot together."

"Yeah, that's true..." Zhongli also looked at the situation in the pot and thought: "According to the habits of ordinary people, if you encounter an accident while doing something and get scared, your first reaction should be to instinctively throw the things in your hands away, instead of letting go of them out of thin air!"

Nodding, Zhongli turned around and looked at the ground again, and continued, "Also, although the footprints around here are a bit messy, the size and depth of each footprint appear to be quite normal, and there are no signs of struggle or fighting."

"So, those miners really left here on their own?!"

"In general terms, that's true!"
