Chapter 163 Records In Ancient Books
The video continues to play.
Xiangling expressed her worries: "Do I want to participate in the King of Kitchen Competition, but to be honest, thinking of new dishes takes a lot of time.
After thinking about it, I still have to cook and test dishes... As time goes by, my judgment deteriorates.
So, I would like to ask you to accompany me to collect your thoughts on food!
This time I want to break through my usual thinking.
I need to ask a few more people,
Collect different ideas. "
Paimon agreed immediately: "This is easy to handle! After all, we have friends all over the world, right Traveler!"
Ying nodded: "Paimon is right.
"The food is here..."
Master Mao finished cooking and served it.
Everyone enjoyed the delicious food together.
Paimon: "Wow...it's so delicious. Sure enough, this kind of weather calls for fresh and hot food."
Master Mao said with a smile: "Our Xiangling is not a fuel-efficient lamp. When we go out, we have to rely on you two to take care of us.
Xiangling said unhappy: "Dad! Why are you talking about me like that!"
Master Mao: "How can I not know what you are like? When you go out, you should not be too casual. Learn more from the reliability of other travelers."
Paimon: "Don't worry, we are friends and we will definitely take care of each other!"
Xiangling: "Guoba is back too and is doing somersaults at the door. Let's go."
The three of them went out together and asked many people.
There are Hutao, Qiqi, Ningguang, Beidou and Keqing.
After asking everyone about their tastes.
Keqing: "Traveller, Paimon, do you have any other plans for the future?"
Paimon thought for a moment: "Not yet. What's wrong with Keqing?"
Keqing said: "I would like to ask you to investigate together about this stone."
Pamon turned to look.
I saw a huge stone placed in the square.
The surface is still very smooth.
At first glance,
I thought there was some treasure in the stone.
"This thing was fished out by fishermen from the shallow sea. It looks like it has been sinking in the water for many years and was washed like this."
“There are specialties in the field, and we are the best investigative experts.
Paimon agreed immediately, and then asked curiously: "What's in the stone?"
Ke Qing: "I have tried swords, guns and sticks, but it cannot be split or broken. This stone is by no means as simple as it seems.
Paimon: "Invulnerable stone sounds very powerful..."
Keqing nodded: "Mr. Yu, we Qixing have the responsibility to give an explanation to the fishermen.
Personally, I also have some things I want to investigate, so I will invite the best helper to follow up on the matter personally.
You should already know the approximate origin of the Moon-by-Moon Festival.
But,
I personally have some other insights into this traditional festival.
My grandfather was a scholar who studied Liyue’s traditional culture.
He wrote in his notes,
In ancient times, there was a kitchen god in Liyue, and people seemed to commemorate him as a god at specific seasons.
Clicks recording related to the Kitchen God are rare.
The text content is also very confusing.
Some schools of thought believe that the Kitchen God is Lord Yan.
Some people pointed out that the Kitchen God was someone else...
There is also a folk anecdote.
It is said that the ancients once found a shrine of the Kitchen God, but there was no statue of the god in it, only a huge stone with a smooth surface.
The boulder was lost during subsequent transportation and its whereabouts are still unknown.
And this stone happens to have the same characteristics.
Maybe it was the piece that was missing back then.
My grandfather has studied ancient books for many years and came up with a hypothesis:
The commemoration of the Kitchen God can be called the Kitchen God Festival.
this festival,
Perhaps it is the prototype of the Lunar Festival.
To prove this, we need to find out the true identity of the Kitchen God.
Now that the emperor has passed away, Liyue has entered an era of human rule.
As descendants, I wait,
Like an emperor, we should pay attention to cultural traditions.
So I thought, this matter should be handled by me.
It can not only verify history, but also carry forward tradition.
It can also verify my grandfather's inference by the way, killing three birds with one stone.
It has been two or three days since this stone was delivered.
before it appears.
We have just decided that the theme of this year’s Moon Festival is food.
Maybe...this is also God's will. "
Ke Qing clearly explained the cause and effect.
Paimon sighed with emotion: "You are really responsible... You are worthy of Keqing!"
After Xiangling listened.
Those who volunteer are also required to participate in the investigation.
"Since it is related to the Kitchen God, then maybe I can find clues about cooking, which will help me participate in the King of Kitchen Competition. Please, please take me with you, I will help!
Keqing nodded: "Since you ask like this...okay.
Several people discussed it.
I decided to start by checking ancient books.
They came to Qingce Village.
Some investigation.
Found the old warehouse of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.
The warehouse managers knew their purpose.
He said curiously: "You are looking for the Kitchen God? Isn't the Kitchen God Lord Yan?"
Paimon: "The Kitchen God is Lord Rock?"
The warehouse manager scratched his head and explained: "I heard from my research friends before that the fire used for cooking is burned by the stove, and the stove is made of stones.
Some people think that this is a gift from Lord Yan, and they believe that Lord Yan is the Kitchen God. "
Ke Qing thoughtfully said: ".~ Well, it makes sense... Is there any other relevant data?"
Warehouse manager: "If you ask me this...I...maybe I need to ask the young master..."
at this time.
Chongyun and Xingqiu came together.
After learning the purpose of Keqing and the others.
Xingqiu said: "I have sorted out the warehouse myself, and I have some impressions of the data in it. If I remember correctly, there is a book "Liyue Mythology Supplement" in the library that mentions the Kitchen God.
Keqing and Xingqiu went into the library to read together.
After a while.
The two came out.
Paimon asked about the situation.
Keqing replied: "I found it. It is written in the book that it is shaped like a dragon, with a long tail that blocks the sun; its claws hold fire and teach people wisdom. Mortals receive this gift and use fire to cook food, and the people's livelihood is good."
Paimon: "It looks like a dragon, which is consistent with Lord Yan's description."
Ke Qing: "Yes, but the relevant records only have this paragraph (the one about winning the king). If you want to know more, you have to continue investigating."
at this time.
Chongyun provided a clue.
They are a family of alchemists, and there are ancient records in their family that the Kitchen God once appeared in Guiliji.
So Keqing and others came to Wangshu Inn.
The Wangshu Inn is the oldest intact building of its generation.
If there are ancient books nearby, there is a high probability that they will be sent to the inn.
After arriving at the inn.
After some questioning.
There are new clues.
The inn chef provides a book.
Ke Qing: "The record about the Kitchen God in the book is surprising. The book says: Two hundred miles northwest, where Guiliji is, there are many settlements, and people hunt, plant, farm and weave to make a living.
When the Kitchen God comes, he takes the form of many people, as tall as a child, and like stars falling to the ground, scattering into thousands of households to help him destroy them.
When people get this fire, they know how to eat hot food, eat soup and rice, and cook cooked meat.
It is completely different from the records in Liyue Mythology, and they conflict with each other. ".
