Origin Spirit: Ly Nguyet Is In The Middle Of A Small Shop

Liyue's "immortals" are known as "three-eyed and five-visible immortals", and they are all non-human. This premise is derived from the saying that "anyone who has seven (nine) knots can attain the Tao", which means that animals can become immortals, and humans have a higher responsibility than the immortal path on the continent of Teyvat—therefore, unlike humans, only non-humans can be called "immortals" in Liyue. The "Three Eyes" refers to the ability to manipulate the power of the elements, and the manifestation of these supernatural powers in humans is the Vision of God. The immortals Liuyun and Lishui should also have "inner eyes" that are not visible to humans, and Xiao, as a character who often appears in human form, follows more intuitive rules and wears the Vision well. The Vision of God on the Left Hand In ancient Chinese traditions and Ming and Qing Dynasty novels about gods and demons, references to "three eyes and five manifestations" usually refer to the Huaguang Heavenly King. "Huaguang Heavenly King", also known as "Ma Lingguan", is a famous protector and guardian saint, who fought with Sun Wukong in the story of "Journey to the South". In other folklore studies, there are also research precedents for linking the five gods with the ghosts and gods in the mountains (such as mandrills). Yaksha Xiao has the vision of the wind elemental, and at the same time, his combat moves are swift and light, and he has air mobility that other characters do not have. In keeping with this, Xiao's constellation and skill design are based on the image of the "Yaksha" in Buddhist stories. Although these "concepts" are foreign, after the Sui and Tang dynasties, they have been fully integrated into the local Chinese countryside and market legends. "Yaksha" is a very important design element, through this design, Xiao's character image is more and more full. The two story archetypes of "Yaksha Protector" and "Spirit Officer from Good" both belong to the category of evil gods to good, and are consistent with the core of Xiao's characters in the general direction. His swift posture is also very well aligned with the translation of the Yaksha's "Swift Ghost". Through the expansion of the image of "Yaksha", the other half of Xiao's tone was determined, that is: the "Yaksha" who protects the Dharma for the "Emperor". The Twelve Yaksha Generals are very famous legends, among them, the twelve generals have their own zodiac signs, and the Crazy Luo General, who was supposed to be the Rooster Zodiac on duty, changed its corresponding animal from the chicken to the Golden-winged Pengwang Bird. The goldfinch eats the poisonous dragon every day, and finally burns out its whole body because it can't bear the poison, leaving only a glass heart in the world. This allusion also seems to be in line with the character's characteristics. Not only that, but the name Pengwang Bird also has its evolutionary process, which is a fusion of the Golden-winged Bird Garuda and the traditional Chinese Pengniao legend, and is not completely detached from the local area. The origin of the Golden-winged Peng Throne Xiao is indeed complicated: he has both folklore and religious tales. Ghost mandrills, Taoist spiritual officials, Dharma protector yakshas, golden-winged pengbirds... Many images are fused and reconstructed at the same level, forming this highly temperamental character. More importantly, these elements are unified at the narrative level, which can harmoniously fill in the impression of the characters and weave a clear and detailed context of destiny. This sophistication will give him a whole new depth and charm. We hope that through the convergence and integration of cultures, we can weave a new movement, and we also hope that the Xiao born from it can be like a totem symbol, with both strength, aesthetics and precipitation. - Genshin Impact IP[5] Xiao's original character design At that time, Xiao's expression was not as cold as it is now. He has a more gentle temperament, with a smile on his face, and is biased towards immortals in the traditional sense. As an immortal who guards Liyue, Xiao has been engaged in a long battle with the remnants of the demon gods around Liyue, and it is inevitable that he will be impregnated by miasma. Based on this setting, Xiao's upper body is made of white and cyan colors, which symbolize immortals, to match his air elemental vision, and the lower body is mainly dark, echoing his darker, evil powers. Unfold the character changes Xiao's costume With the same design idea, the art team added a few light highlights to Xiao's dark hair color, and when attacking, there was a special intertwining of dark and light colors. Among them, the dark color represents the power that rags during the fierce battle, and the bright light chips and particles scattered by the light color are brought by Xiao's "immortal" side. Considering Xiao's real age and the identity of the immortal, the art team chose to use some jade ornaments to add a sense of age and mystery. Therefore, the legs, cuffs and shoulders of the character have ornaments similar to jade pendants, as well as small objects with simple patterns, and in order to match his handsome young appearance, the art team chose a relatively modern design in the overall cut of the costume (especially the top), highlighting its vitality and action. In terms of overall positioning, Xiao is not only a long-sleeved immortal, but also a young warrior. This kind of image positioning with a large range of changes poses a great test to the artistic expression. Traditionally, most of the immortals are Confucian figures with long clothes and wide sleeves, and their gestures will be controlled within a certain range, but Xiao, as a "Dharma Protector Yaksha" who wields a long-handled weapon, his clothing must not only provide the necessary protective functions, but also facilitate movement. In addition, considering that there may be a problem of wearing the mold between the actions after the 3D model is made, the streamers on the clothes are also strictly restricted. Therefore, Xiao's clothing is mainly close-fitting short, with light armor on the wrist, and "magic weapons" such as a demon-slaying pestle and a small incense burner on his body. At the same time, the front hem, back hem and streamers are embellished to add ancient charm to moire deformation, so as to achieve the unity of ability and elegance. Unfold the costume Xiao's mask In the design of the mask, I borrowed some "nuó noodles" Note: It is not the characteristics of the !! of the ghost face: The mask is black, blue, and gold as the main colors, bright but not frivolous, solemn and mysterious. The eyes are like copper bells, the mouth is bared with fangs, and the head has horns, giving people a sense of hideous fear. The eye in the middle of the forehead symbolizes "discerning eyes", and the decoration of the flaming eyebrow lines adds momentum and is intended to intimidate all directions. Unfold the mask Wu opera, also known as ghost play, is the oldest kind of Han nationality to worship the gods and dance ghosts, drive away plagues and avoid epidemics, and express the entertainment of Anqing. After the Han Dynasty, it gradually developed into a ceremonial ritual with strong entertainment and drama elements. Around the time of the Song Dynasty, due to the influence of folk songs, dances and dramas, the ritual began to evolve into a ritual that aimed to reward the gods and repay their vows. Nu opera is a synthesis of history, folklore, folk religion and primitive drama. It is widely popular in Anhui, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Shaanxi, Hebei and other provinces. "Xiao's launch coincides with the Lantern Festival, and with this thousand-year-old tradition, we also hope to spread the blessings of the epidemic to both inside and outside the game. I hope that everyone will not only like Xiao's character, but also get further resonance and insight from his design elements. - Genshin Impact Art Team[5] Normal Attack Action Design The combination of long-handled weapons and oriental characteristics naturally thought of the marksmanship and stick skills of traditional martial arts, but Xiao, as an immortal, has experienced many years of battles, and has long been not confined to the moves themselves. Therefore, in terms of action performance, there are not only the characteristics of oriental elements, but also the decisiveness of the Protector Yaksha who has fought for thousands of years. The third segment of the normal attack has a video of a flip over [6], including the first meeting line of the demon change, and
