The group gods who retired to fish in Genshin Impact

"A sharpened sword will never make a difference between woodchopping? What does that mean?"

Paimon was confused, it was a new sentence that she had never heard before.

“Sharpening your sword and chopping wood is a very old story.

You should be able to use the principles told in this story to persuade Keqing to take a rest.

If you are not in a hurry, I can tell you now. "

The story of Jiang Corpse taking a sip of tea and sharpening his knife to chop wood has been almost forgotten by people on earth.

If he didn't have the memory of the entire earth, he probably wouldn't have remembered the truth that had been taught to the Dragon Kingdom for thousands of years.

"We're not in a hurry right now."

Kong decided to listen to Jiang Xi's story. Although Jiang Xi was not very reliable, he did provide a lot of help along the way from Mondstadt.

"It's better not to be in a hurry. The story of sharpening the knife and chopping wood happened in a long time ago.

Legend has it that a long time ago, there were several families of hunters in a valley.

The mountains are isolated from the world. Every winter, hunters prepare firewood for the winter several months in advance.

In the past, the hunters were all middle-aged and elderly people, but one year a very young man was added to this group of hunters.

At that year. When winter is approaching, the hunters go to the mountains to chop firewood for the winter as usual.

When heading into the mountains, the old hunters said to the young man: Young man, come with us into the mountains to cut firewood, otherwise the winter will be unbearable.

But the young man just smiled and said to the old hunters: You go ahead, I have to sharpen this ax.

The young man kept sharpening the ax in his hand as he spoke.

The old hunters didn't take it seriously and thought the young man's ax was blunt, so they went to the woods first.

When they returned in the evening, they found that the young man was still sharpening his axe.

But the strange thing is that there is a pile of firewood next to the young man's house that is similar to the firewood they all chopped down.

This made the old hunters a little puzzled. This young man couldn't have spent a whole day sharpening his ax here and the firewood flew back by himself.

But due to their reputation, the old hunters were too embarrassed to ask.

In the following days, they would also call out to the young man when setting off in the morning. The young man will also answer as usual that he wants to sharpen his axe.

In the evening, when the old hunters came back, the young man was still sharpening his axe, and there were piles of firewood piled high around him.

After a few days of going back and forth like this, the old hunters finally couldn't bear it anymore.

One of the respected old hunters couldn't help but ask the young man for advice.

The old hunter asked: Young man, you sharpen your ax here every day, how can you still pile up so much firewood around you? Is it to care for that mountain god?

The other hunters nodded frequently. Those who live in the mountains have to rely on the mountain gods.

When they left, the young man was sharpening his axe. When they came back, the young man was still sharpening his axe, but he got more firewood than them every day.

Except for the help of the mountain gods, they really couldn't believe that the young man chopped it down by himself.

The old hunter also felt that his guess was right.

But when the young man heard this, he just smiled and said to the hunters: You have always invited me to chop firewood with you, but I did not go.

Since you came here today to ask for advice humbly, I will go with you tomorrow morning. Then you will know where this firewood comes from.

The young man sold it out.

Early the next morning, the young man took his good ax and set out with the old hunters.

Same forest farm, same axe.

The old hunters found that it usually took them more than a dozen axes to chop down the trees, but a few axes were enough in the hands of young men.

This surprised the hunters, and the young man saw the surprised old hunters and said generously: If you are curious about why I get so much firewood every day, just come and try my axe.

The young man handed his ax into the hands of a hunter, and when the hunter took the young man's ax to chop down the tree, he found it extremely easy, just like cutting tofu with a knife.

It was very easy for the ax blade to carve a gap in the tree.

The old hunters took turns using the young man's axe, and they all found that this ax was more useful than their own.

The old hunters thought that this ax must be a treasure that the young man got from somewhere.

But the young man laughed and said: Our axes are all the same, but the methods of using them are different.

You race against time to chop down trees every day, but you ignore the sharpness of the ax blade.

Over time, the originally sharp ax blade was blunted by chopping trees.

And I maintain my ax every day and polish it well to keep it as sharp as ever.

So I can exert less force and achieve greater results when chopping down trees.

This is why I go out later than you every day, come back earlier, and get more firewood than you do.

When the old hunters heard what the young man said, they compared their own axes with the young man's axes.

It was found that everyone's axes were indeed the same, but the ax blades were the sharpest among the young men, and some of their ax blades had even been ground flat.

The most virtuous and respected old hunter couldn't help but said when he saw this scene: He is really a good chopping wood worker!

This is the origin of the story of sharpening the knife and chopping wood. Of course, there are other versions of the story, but this version is the most comfortable for me to listen to.

If you want to persuade Keqing to take a rest, you have to be like the young man here and use facts to let the old hunters understand that you don't have to work hard all the time to gain something.

Sometimes you need a little bit of recuperation and little tricks. "

Jiang Shi finished telling the story of sharpening the knife and chopping wood.

There are many versions of this story, and no one can tell for sure.

But only this version is really good.

"It turns out that this is the grinding knife to cut the firewood!"

Paimon felt like he had gained new knowledge.

"I've probably got my thoughts figured out."

Sora also had some ideas.

"This story of Jiang Shi should benefit you a lot.

But if you want that Yu Hengxing to stop and take a rest, you need more people's personal experiences to impress her. "

Zhongli also meant this. If he wanted Keqing to rest, he had to make Keqing understand that working hard might not yield results at work, but it would definitely cause damage to his body.

And rest will not necessarily delay work, but work will certainly delay rest.

Sometimes it is precisely because people get enough rest that they can achieve greater results at work.

If people work hard all the time without taking a break, people's energy will naturally decrease.

In the end, I'm afraid it will be half the result with twice the effort.

“I get it, I need to find more people to ask for their stories.”

Kong was ready to ask if there was anyone else in Liyue Port who was similar to Keqing, but he also understood that rest was the most important thing.

"Travelers are really easy to understand. Let's find some materials. If you are willing, I can also help make some suggestions.

After you have a good idea, just tell this story to Yuhengxing through your mouth. "

Zhongli was also willing to join the team that persuaded Keqing to rest.

In other words, he should be the one who can understand Ke Qing the best in the field.

As the Rock King Emperor Morax, he had been deeply tired during the thousands of years he had been guarding Liyue. In the dead of night, he put down his official duties and went out to relax.

Now I feel that Liyue Port can move forward alone, let go of everything, and integrate into the world.

This break not only did not hinder his thinking about the future of Liyue Port.

On the contrary, in Liyue Port, after a period of life as a mortal, he thought more thoroughly about the future thinking of Liyue Port.

But now that Liyue Qixing is in charge of Liyue Port, there is nothing wrong with what he does, and he also keeps his thoughts in his heart.

This port will always prosper.

But people inside must also learn to stop appropriately and take a good rest.

“I think, when it comes to busyness and rest, you can look to Wendy.

No one understands these principles better than him.

One month of work, 500 years of rest, that's what he was talking about. "

Jiang Shi gave Sora and Paimon a suggestion. Isn't Wendy the best person on the continent of Teyvat who is good at resting.

You must know that this guy helped Vanessa overthrow the brutal rule of the Lawrence family.

Turning around, he threw everything to Vanessa and ran out to wander.

When he came back later, the first thing he did was to be a man and go to Vanessa's office to find Vanessa.

But Vanessa was dealing with official duties at the time and had no time to talk to him, so Wendy kept pestering Vanessa to go out to play.

In the end, he held on to his resentment towards Wendy for leaving everything behind and running away. and the impatience of being pestered by Wendy.

Vanessa drove Wendy out of the Knights of the West Wind headquarters using the same sounds and gestures she used to drive away rats.

Jiang Shi said at that time that Winnessa was still too kind, if it were him. Even if he doesn't beat Wendy, he will definitely drive her away with the sound of a puppy.

Just making a sound to drive away the squirrels was really too kind to Wendy.

"We set off from here to Mondstadt to look for Wendy. If we come back, we won't have enough time."

Sora thought for a while and felt that the plan to find Wendy was not very reliable.

“Be confident and get rid of the feeling that there is definitely not enough time.

I don’t know where that guy Wendy has gone. By the time you find him, I’m afraid the Lantern Festival will be over. "

Jiang Shi confirmed Kong’s statement.

"Then why do you still want us to find Wendy?"

Paimon was dissatisfied.

"Because besides me, he has the most rest in the entire Teyvat continent."

Jiang Shi took his time.

From the period of the Demon War to the intervening peace years, he, Morax and the others had been busy.

Just Wendy. Last month I heard that I was dating in which country, but next month I can’t find anyone.

Hundreds of years later, I saw him emerging from a green magic circle in a deep mountain and old forest.

Wake up and continue to swim.

Then within two months I couldn’t find anyone again.

Wendy is the fish monster of Teyvat.
