On a deeper level, Yu Qi still maintains an extremely alienated attitude towards this world.

After all, this is not Yu Qi's own world. He is like a wanderer who can never return home. He is lonely, confused, fearful and resistant. Filled with these emotions, he wanders outside this world, unwilling to integrate into it.

Although Bai Zhu saw this, he had no good solution. He could only hope to influence him indirectly through communication, so that Yu Qi could face up to his own destiny and try to integrate into this world.

This was not simply because Bai Shu was kind-hearted, but because he wanted to use this to repay part of Yu Qi's kindness - the kindness of giving him the opportunity to fulfill his long-cherished wish.

However, Bai Shu could never have imagined that after forging the sword in just a lunch time, Yu Qi would have such a big transformation.

From the initial alienation and resistance, people began to try to integrate into this world and take the initiative to build closer relationships with the people in this world.

Thinking back carefully, the reason why Yu Qi had such a big change was probably due to Xiangling's casual question: "Mr. Yu Qi, what are you going to do when you arrive in Liyue Harbor?"

It was because of this problem that Yu Qi took the initiative to think about his future for the first time, and how to live in this world. Coupled with the forging that came to him on a whim, it seemed that he figured something out!

All of these are coincidental events, which together have led to Yu Qi's current attitude.

"People can't dwell on the past forever, right?" After tying the last rope, Yu Qi stood up straight, reached out and stroked the long sword at his waist, and said calmly: "I just remembered that I should look forward."

In response, Bai Zhu just smiled and did not say anything else. Instead, he called Yu Qi again to start checking his body.

The familiar silver needles, the familiar desk, the familiar process. Although he had only experienced it twice, Yu Qi had gradually begun to adapt to this situation. It was just that he felt a little bored because he could not move during the examination.

However, the dinner later gave Yu Qi a little surprise. Looking at the shredded pork with chili peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried tofu with green onions and a pot full of fish soup on the table, he looked particularly dazed.

Especially when the food entered his mouth, under the influence of Xiangling's immature but obvious cooking skills, Yu Qi seemed to be back in his own little house in a trance, looking at the figures on the table, the computer in front of him and the various novels on the bookshelf by the wall, his eyes full of memories.

Although it had only been four or five days since they separated, he particularly missed these spiritual companions who had accompanied him through his lonely times.

Wandering in the illusion created by the chef, Yu Qi ate slowly and carefully, which was a rare occurrence for him. It took him nearly an hour to put down the bowl of rice.

Raising his hand, he wiped the sweat from the hot pepper on his forehead, and wiped away the trace of moisture from the corner of his eye. Yu Qi looked at Xiangling and Baizhu, who had already finished eating, a little embarrassedly, and said, "Sorry, I'm sorry, Xiangling, the meal you cooked this time was so delicious that I couldn't help but eat a little more."

"It's okay, it's okay." Xiangling waved her hand generously and said with a smile: "Brother Yu, if you like it, I'm so happy! If you want to eat it, I will continue to make it for you next time!"

"Then it's a deal?"

"Hey, the contract is done!"

"Well, the contract is done!"

Chapter 25 Yu Qi and Braised Lion's Head

A night of sweet dreams.

As he had been running around all day, after Yu Qi finished his dinner and chatted with Xiang Ling and the others for a while, he went straight back to his tent and fell asleep. He did not wait until midnight to refresh the card drawing like he did in the previous two days.

It was not until the next morning, when it was just dawn, that he opened his eyes sleepily. He stared at the tent above his head for a long time before he finally woke up.

"Hiss~" Getting up from the ground, Yu Qi moved his hands and feet, feeling a dull pain in his limbs. He felt helpless, but also fortunate.

"Well, luckily my body is much stronger than when I first crossed over, otherwise I would not be able to get up today!"

If you haven't exercised for a long time, suddenly exercising excessively can easily produce a large amount of acidic substances in the body, such as carbon dioxide, lactic acid, etc., which can cause muscle soreness. In severe cases, it may also cause muscle cramps, edema, and even rhabdomyolysis!

Yu Qi had never thought of this before, but now that he felt the soreness in his limbs, he recalled this knowledge.

"Tsk, let's talk to Xiangling and the others later. I'm afraid we can't travel as fast as we did yesterday." Smacking his lips, Yu Qi sighed helplessly, opened the tent door, and found a stone to sit down.

I looked up at the sky and saw a faint halo under the misty clouds, which was a sign that the sun was about to rise.

Looking around, Xiangling and Baizhu seemed to have not gotten up yet. He thought about it and opened the card drawing interface, and drew today's free ten draws.

“一星卡片·黄米*1、一星卡片·清露酿*2、一星卡片·十六倍超大甜甜花*1、一星卡片·软籽石榴*1、一星卡片·蜜汁肉干*2、一星卡片·回血丹(红烧狮子头)*1、二星卡片·强韧的灵魂*1,三星卡片·一气锅(炉)*1”

"Huh?" Yu Qi glanced at the ten cards in front of him, raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help showing a surprised expression: "Delivered?"

He calmly clicked on the cards one by one and checked them. There was nothing surprising about the first few one-star cards. They were just some ordinary ingredients or those with a little bit of extraordinary effects. Yu Qi casually sorted them into categories and put them away for later use.

But the last card, 'One-star card·Healing Pill (Braised Lion's Head)', caught his attention. After reading the description, Yu Qi's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but curse: "Fuck, what the hell is this blood-recovering pill?"

"One-star card: Blood-recovering pill (braised lion's head): This is a braised lion's head specially made by an anonymous auxiliary player. It is also called a blood-recovering pill because it can restore health points. The effect is excellent! Unfortunately, it will only be effective if you eat all of it."

"Eat it all..." Yu Qi looked at the huge meatballs in a basin on the card with a twitching mouth, speechless for a moment: "If I eat such a large amount, I will die of fullness, let alone recovering blood! Could it be that it is for giants?"

With a sigh, he put the card into an area specially used to store some cards with effects that were hard to describe. Yu Qi decided that if he encountered a huge creature that was seriously injured, he might be able to take it out and use it on it.

Ignoring the blood-recovering pill, Yu Qi looked at the two-star card with joy and a little sigh in his eyes: "This is the second one, do you want to use it?"

Yu Qi was a little hesitant. After all, if he used the card "Strong Soul", it would be equivalent to swallowing a soul. Although Yu Qi understood that the so-called "soul" was just a trace or obsession left by the other party, and not a real soul, he still couldn't help but feel some resistance psychologically.

"Forget it. Why should I be so hypocritical? I've already used it before. What's the point of resisting now?"

After making a self-deprecating remark, Yu Qi took out the strong soul without any pause and swallowed it directly into his mouth. In an instant, he could clearly feel that the power inherited from Fushe in his body had increased a lot.

Although he did not gain any new knowledge or abilities, his total amount of lightning elemental power and physical strength were greatly enhanced.

"Well, not bad!" After clenching his fists tentatively, Yu Qi nodded with satisfaction.

If the total amount of elemental power he could control before was equivalent to one percent of Xiang Ling, then now it has reached about one tenth of Xiang Ling.

"From this perspective, when it is fully broken, my elemental power should be much stronger than Xiangling's. Coupled with the strengthening of my body, my combat effectiveness is also somewhat guaranteed."

As for now, he can probably only fight against ordinary Hillichul people, but if any Hillichul thugs come, he will have to flee in panic.

Shaking his head, without thinking too much about the future, Yu Qi looked at the only three-star card, and then raised his eyebrows: "This..."

"Three-star card: Yiqi pot (furnace): A stir-fry pot named Yiqi pot (furnace), used by an anonymous auxiliary player to make daily dishes. It has the effect of sealing the essence of rice (spirit) and vegetables (medicine), integrating the vitality of heaven and earth, and can increase the effect of the rice (elixir) and vegetables (medicine) produced by 50% - don't look at it, this is a stir-fry pot!

[PS: Of course, if you want to use it to make pills, that’s fine too.] [PS’s PS: I’d like to say that it can also be used to make tools.]”

"This thing..." Looking at the description of Yiqiguo with a smile, especially the content in brackets, Yu Qi couldn't help but look at the 'Blood Recovery Pill (Braised Lion's Head)' that he had just put away, and couldn't help but complain: "These two things, are they from the same person?

I have seen many people using rice cookers and hot pots to make medicine, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone using a furnace to cook!

...But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem to be a problem!"

After all, if a cooking pot can be used to make elixirs, then the stove used to make elixirs can naturally be used to cook. Isn’t this reasonable!

After barely convincing himself, Yu Qi raised his hand and waved. A huge cauldron nearly ten meters high appeared silently in front of him. In the morning light, the shadow of the cauldron directly enveloped the entire camp, leaving Yu Qi confused.

"F-fuck!"

Before he could finish his sigh, a mountain breeze blew by, followed by the aroma of food, and accompanied by rich spiritual energy, which instantly swept across the entire camp.

His heart tightened, and Yu Qi instinctively raised his hand to put away the cauldron. However, before he could do so, the door of the tent was ripped open, and Xiangling, who looked dazed, was thrown out barefoot. She was half-opened with sleepy eyes, and seemed not to be fully awake yet. She kept shouting, "What a nice smell! What kind of dish is this? Let me try it!"

Not only her, Guoba also jumped out from behind Xiangling and was about to jump onto the cauldron. He was obviously attracted by the rich spiritual energy, and his body reacted before his consciousness.

"Forehead……"

Chapter 26 Yu Qi and Welcome to Liyue Harbor

"So, this is one of the things you collected, Brother Yu, uh... the alchemy furnace?! I just remembered it today, so I took it out to have a look?"

Looking at Yu Qi with a strange expression, Xiang Ling moved her nose slightly and sniffed the still extremely rich aroma of food in the air, with an expression as if she had so many things to complain about that she didn't know where to start.

Not to mention her, even Bai Zhu, who had a calm personality, couldn't help but be speechless at this moment. He looked at Yu Qi dimly. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes clearly revealed the meaning of "Can you make up a better reason to lie to me?"

In response to this, Yu Qi expressionlessly pulled away Guoba who was hugging him and acting coquettishly, and had nothing to say.

What else can he do? He also knows that the reasons he gave are ridiculous!

But he was also helpless. Who knew that there would be such a rich aroma of food coming from this Yiqi stove? If he didn't want to expose his golden finger, he could only say this!

"Sniff~" She sniffed again. Seeing that Yu Qi had something to hide, Xiangling nodded with some regret: "Okay!"

Although I felt a little reluctant, I wanted to look at the tripod furnace again and smell the fragrance coming from it. Maybe I could find some new inspiration from it.

However, she didn't want to force Yu Qi to take out the cauldron and show it to her. She was not the kind of person who would push for more.

"Well, I can only wait and see when Brother Yu takes out this cauldron again. I might be able to take the opportunity to observe it for myself."

"Hiss~" Changsheng stretched lazily after spitting out his snake tongue, and stopped swallowing in and out spiritual energy. His crimson round pupils blinked with a faint spiritual light. Obviously, swallowing up the spiritual energy that just escaped from the cauldron was a great gain for him.

Although he was also somewhat envious of Yu Qi's cauldron, Changsheng did not choose to speak. To him, spiritual energy was good, but vitality was the most important. It was not worth it to offend Yu Qi for this.

"Well, it's nothing. Xiangling, if you want to see it, then go ahead." Seeing Xiangling's thoughts, Yu Qi thought about it and was too lazy to hide anything. He waved his hand and took out the Yiqi furnace again.

A palm-sized incense burner was quietly suspended in Yu Qi's palm, ordinary without any spiritual energy escaping.

If it weren't for the identical appearance and the rich aroma of food emanating from it, it would be difficult for people to associate it with the huge ten-meter-high cauldron.

Looking at Yu Qi with some surprise, Xiang Ling approached and sniffed the fragrance coming out of the cauldron with surprise, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Yu, is this also an immortal artifact? Could it be that some immortal used it to cook in the past?"

"This..." Scratching his head, Yu Qi looked at the description of the Yiqilu again and nodded hesitantly: "Maybe, anyway, it was like this when it came into my hands. You know, I can't cook, so I kept it.

If I hadn’t suddenly remembered it today, I would have kept it in the closet.”

If he didn't know how the Yi Qi furnace came about, Yu Qi felt that he would believe his own reason... Well, at least it makes sense in theory.

No, Bai Zhu couldn't help but show doubt in his eyes after hearing this, wondering if he had thought wrongly.

"Is that so? Wow, there are so many smells I've never smelled before. I really want to know how the immortals cook. If I can learn from them, my cooking skills will definitely improve a lot."

Of course, having said that, she didn't mean to ask for more benefits from Yu Qi. After trying hard and finding that she had no way to tell what the fragrance was, Xiangling could only let Yu Qi put away the cauldron in disappointment.

The little episode of getting up early passed peacefully. After hastily finishing their breakfast amid Xiangling's muttering, Yu Qi and the others did not stay for long. They packed up the tent and continued on their way.

And just a few hours after they left the camping spot.

A crane shadow suddenly appeared in the sky. When it flew over the camping spot, it suddenly stopped moving, and its body turned gracefully and flew down, finally landing at the place where Yu Qi and his group had camped.

"This smell..." The wings with sky-blue feathers flapped, and a thin breath in the air was captured by Him. He put it to his nose and sniffed it. There was a look of surprise on the Crane's face that was visible to the naked eye.

"Such pure and quiet spiritual energy, its quality is even comparable to that of the power of the devil? And there is this fragrance, could it be that some kind of natural treasure has been born? Or is it some rare and exotic object?" The sharp crane beak opened and closed gently, sucking the spiritual energy into its belly. The crane raised its head and looked around, finally shaking its head helplessly.

"Unfortunately, it looks like someone has already gotten there first, so I can't snatch the opportunity from others." With a sigh, the crane spread its wings and took off, flying in the direction it started from. "Forget it, let's go to the Layered Rock Abyss first. The Demon-Subduing Great Sage said there's something strange going on over there, and he came to me specially. I'm afraid there's some trouble again!"

Yu Qi and the others who were far away naturally had no idea what was happening at the camping site, but just continued on their way.

After a whole day, although he didn't travel fifty or sixty kilometers like yesterday, Yu Qi was still exhausted from the long journey through mountains and rivers.

After a quick meal, he fell asleep again.

On the third day, we hurried on our way and nothing happened; on the fourth day, we hurried on our way and still nothing happened.

Then, the fifth day, the sixth day, the seventh day...until the tenth day.

"Finally, we're here!" After crossing the not-so-narrow mountain road, Yu Qi stood on a rock by the roadside, looking at the huge city in the distance. He couldn't help but smile on his slightly weathered face: "This is Liyue Harbor!"

"Hey!" Looking at Guoba jumping and running along the mountain path, Xiangling was also a little excited. It was obvious that she was also very happy to finally be able to go home.

Bai Zhu, on the other hand, looked somewhat helpless, with an expression of wanting more: "It turned out to be so fast this time, I thought it would take half a month, but because it was sunny all the way, it only took ten days to get back to Liyue Harbor!"

He hasn't been able to collect enough data from Yu Qi yet, but now he has to end it. After all, they have signed a contract!

"Hiss~" After spitting out his snake tongue, Changsheng seemed to be indifferent: "What are you lamenting about? With your current relationship, it won't be difficult to ask him for help in the future!"

Not noticing Bai Shu and Chang Sheng's whispers, Xiang Ling strolled over to Yu Qi, turned her back to face him, and chuckled, "Well, Brother Yu, welcome to Liyue Harbor!"

Chapter 27 Yu Qihe Arrives at Liyue Harbor

As the capital of one of the seven kingdoms of Teyvat, Liyue Harbor is naturally not a place that can be easily entered, especially when Yu Qi does not have an identity certificate, it is even more difficult to enter.

If it weren't for the joint guarantee of Xiangling and Baishu, who were well-known throughout Liyue Harbor, Yu Qi, with his status as an illegal immigrant, would have to go through 9981 inspections before being allowed to enter Liyue Harbor.

But this is normal. Whether it is the information obtained from Xiangling and Baishu before, or the scene just seen when looking at Liyue Harbor from afar at the foot of Tianheng Mountain, it all shows that the social structure of this country is in the feudal era - or the theocracy era.

Under such circumstances, it is naturally not so easy to enter and exit Liyue Harbor, the capital.

Haven't you seen that even in many ancient Chinese cities, if you want to enter or exit, you have to verify your identity, pass and other tokens one by one at the city gate guards, not to mention that the path Xiangling and the others took Yu Qi through was obviously not the main gate, but a more private "small path".

Under the slightly strange gaze of the Qianyan Army guarding the place, Yu Qi asked Xiangling to help him fill in his identity information. He did not find it strange at all.

Xiangling and Baishu were a little puzzled. While filling out the form, they asked the Qianyan Army beside them: "Brother, what happened in Liyue Port? Why has the guarding become so strict? Also, there seem to be fewer passenger ships at the port than before."

"Oh..." Hesitantly looking at Yu Qi, the Qianyan Army on guard thought for a moment and said, "It's nothing serious. Recently, there have been many treasure-stealing groups near Liyue Harbor and on the trade routes passing through Luhuachi, Guiliyuan, Dihuazhou, and Shimen. Many caravans have been attacked by them.

Now Lady Keqing of Yuheng Star has led the team to suppress the bandits, and Lady Tianquan Star has ordered us to strengthen the defense of Liyue Harbor to prevent those treasure-stealing groups from gathering together and launching a surprise attack on Liyue Harbor.
