After his death, Xie Yunsui was bound to the Myriad Worlds Shop and became its proprietor.
The Myriad Worlds Shop had been tragically thrown into a spatiotemporal rift by its previous owner, ...

For foreign governments and institutions that are closely following the situation in China, the death toll announced by China is "unscientifically" low.
Based on model predictions, their think tank believes that under this level of extreme cold wave, China should have at least hundreds of thousands or even more excess deaths.
How could it be less than ten thousand? What kind of concept is that?
"It's impossible for them to have enough energy. They must be hiding something!"
Some media outlets jumped to this conclusion and continued their attacks based on this argument.
Later on, he even stopped acting.
If they knew that China's initial number was less than one thousand, and that the ten thousand was deliberately rounded up for political reasons, they would probably be even more devastated.
However, through vague satellite images and sporadic information channels, they discovered that China's urban lifelines were indeed still functioning, and there were no signs of the expected large-scale chaos.
At this time, China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs forwarded a video released by China's most authoritative official media.
"Hmm? Huaguo responded?"
Foreign forces flocked in.
"What new instructions does our mother have?"
People in China clicked on the video while eating.
The video begins during the drought period.
The first thing that appears in the picture is the cracked land and the scorched crops dying under the scorching sun, which reminds people of the period of burning fire.
Then, the scene switched, and rain-making rockets streaked across the sky, bringing some moisture to the land.
Machines and farmers braved the scorching sun and worked on the hot soil, storing the crops that had been snatched from heaven into warehouses.
On the northern grasslands, thirsty cattle and sheep fell down one after another. The herdsmen looked at the increasingly thin cattle and sheep and sent them to the slaughterhouse with tears in their eyes.
The factory worked day and night, from the drought to the rainy season.
The continuous heavy rain poured down like a river from the sky, causing the water levels of rivers to rise sharply and serious flooding in cities and towns.
But in the raging flood, there are figures going against the flow everywhere.
Machines roared in the workshop, and boxes of tents, quilts, and instant foods were loaded onto trucks and shipped out.
The medical team waded through waist-deep water to transfer the wounded and performed surgery in makeshift tents.
A group of soldiers squatted in the mud and water, gnawing on cold steamed buns, taking a rare breath. The team member smiled and said, "Let's continue working after finishing this." Before the words fell, the flood peak suddenly arrived, and several figures were instantly swallowed up by the muddy waves - and then, new figures came up.
The soldiers charged to the front line, and the ordinary people behind them did not fall behind.
Capable volunteers from all over the country, carrying the supplies they had gathered, formed convoys and rushed to various disaster-stricken resettlement sites.
The gray and damp scene was finally covered by snow, and the city seemed to be frozen.
Heavy snowplows roared as they cleared the thick snow that had covered the ground to a height of a person after a night out. The ground was covered in white. Even heavy machinery seemed insignificant in the face of the endless snow.
However, behind the machines are countless ordinary people - they hold shovels, brooms, and even iron plates and wood chips, and take turns cleaning communities, streets, hospitals and any roads that need to be passed.
This has become a scenic spot.
There is no fancy photography, no deliberately sentimental background music, and no suggestive text embellishments. This video is just a record.
But it is more thrilling than any number or any declaration.
It seems that no further words are needed to explain China's almost miraculous death toll.
It is the mobilization of all civilian forces at all costs and the concerted efforts of the military and civilians that have led to the China we have today.
There were just a few "staged" comments on the foreign Internet at first, but they were suddenly attacked by the people of their own country.
"They appear to be doing this voluntarily; no one is forcing them."
Why are you still going out in such cold weather?
"They are wearing thick clothes. Look at them, fully armed, and they won't get frostbite at all."
Where do they get their thermal insulation equipment?
"Those factories are so efficient, and no one cares whether they can make money or not. They just want to send out the best!"
Why are Chinese people so well-behaved and not noisy at all?
"As long as we dress a little better or eat a little better, we'll be targeted. Countless people will come to rob you, kill you, and make your life miserable. I can only hide in the cellar. I dare not go out without two guns and endless bullets!"
"Government? Hey, come on, do we have that?"
They are not afraid of encountering robbery or other unexpected events when they go out fully armed, and they help each other.
The death toll is not a miracle, this is the fucking miracle!
The Chinese people were surprisingly angry. They finally understood why those people were saying the death toll was too low. It turned out they were jealous of the good life we were having.
You only see that few people die now, but don’t you see how many people died in previous droughts and floods?
Isn’t the stable life we have now the result of our brothers and sisters fighting for their lives?
A verbal fight?
With thousands of years of cultural history, are we afraid of arguing with you?
Come on!
There is not much entertainment in life to begin with, and now the people are criticizing the picky remarks made by those on the foreign Internet.

"Want to exchange for a batch of special materials?"
Xie Yunsui was exercising in the training room when he received the message from Li Wangruo.
Sweat dripped from his forehead. He wiped it off without much concern and said to the person on the other end of the line, "Wait a moment."
Fang Xiheng was the sparring partner, and at the moment, his body, wrapped in a tight suit, was covered in sweat. When he heard his words, he knew that today's training might be over, so he got up and went to take a shower.
The others in the training room watched in silence and shock as the two men entered the showers.
"Speaking of which, how long has Xie Yunsui been training with General Fang? He's already engaging in back-and-forth combat with him?"
"That throw from Commander Fang just now would have left me lying on the ground, unable to get up. How did Xie Yunsui get up?"
"It's amazing! Xie Yunsui has grown so fast."
"From now on, when we go out, are we going to protect Xie Yunsui, or will he protect us?"
Several people looked at each other, and at the same time increased their training and began to compete internally.
Xie Yunsui and Fang Xiheng came to the laboratory in fresh clothes and saw several varieties of square bricks on the table at a glance.
"What is this?" Xie Yunsui was stunned. "You carved the main formation diagram of the thermostat into the square bricks?"
Li Wangruo raised his head and said, "At first, I wanted to make it look like an air conditioner, something that wouldn't be too conspicuous. But with so many households in our country, replicating thousands of thermostats would be difficult. The main reason is that we don't have enough materials, and it would be difficult to install them all over the country. So, we came up with this idea."
They sacrificed a little bit of the temperature control range of the thermostat, reducing it from 300 cubic meters to 200 cubic meters, but it is more applicable.
Compared to installing a machine for no apparent reason, even if it is just an air conditioner, some people would find it strange if air conditioners were replaced on such a large scale around the world.
But it is different if square bricks are used. Heavy rains cause damage to the walls of many high-rise buildings, and there are also problems with the internal buildings after being soaked in water. If these problems are left untreated, it is easy to cause wall collapse. At this time, there will be no problem in carrying out building maintenance across the country.
In this case, replacing an inconspicuous square brick is not a problem.
Xie Yunsui asked, "What about the energy supply?"
If it is made into an air conditioner, we can research it to use electricity to control the switch and put it in a square brick, then there will be no other way.
Li Wangruo said, "So we want to buy a batch of energy stones, the spiritual stones you mentioned before. Didn't you say that a small piece of spiritual stone can provide a stable and continuous energy supply for a long time?"
Xie Yunsui raised an eyebrow: "If it is used in such a small square brick, one spirit stone can provide energy for three years, not counting the loss."
"Three years is more than enough!" Li Wangruo said, "We can save a little more and cut it into one year's budget. If the snowstorm isn't over after a year, we can have someone start 'repairs' again."
"Isn't it too troublesome..." Xie Yunsui asked.
"That's why it has to be this complicated." Li Wangruo frowned and said, "I just received an email from above directing the government to disclose some of the benefits. We originally wanted to keep it secret for the people to use, but now we can't keep it secret anymore, so we have to make it more complicated."
Fang Xiheng was startled and quickly checked his emails. An email from three hours ago had not been opened yet.
At that time, he was coaching Xie Yunsui in a battle and did not notice the email alert.
If you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world.
The country found that if it only lived well, it would easily become the target of attacks from the whole world, so it planned to use a small part of technology to divert attention.
What they currently get from the Wanjie Shop, in addition to the inexhaustible infrastructure supplies, are the jade pendant farm, space backpacks and energy warehouses.
A small portion of the former has already been exported to replace minerals and other resources needed by the country.
The last three must not be revealed at all. Those who know about it are strictly controlled, and there is not even a possibility of leakage.
What can be taken out is still aimed at the current disaster crisis, which is a constant temperature machine.
Of course, the thermostat itself cannot be released.
The country plans to package this batch of square bricks with temperature-control functions and export them to various countries under the pretext of "new technology" and "latest developed thermal insulation materials."
Even if someone abroad cracks it, it will not be possible to crack this new material in a short time. If they try to replicate the pattern they sandwiched in the square bricks, they will not be able to achieve the temperature control effect without spirit stones.
The core technology is always in their hands.
Xie Yunsui was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, how many spirit stones do you need?"
Li Wangruo didn't miss his hesitation: "Do you have any concerns?"
Xie Yunsui just subconsciously thought of letting the spirit stones be distributed to all parts of the country along with this batch of square bricks. As time passed, the spiritual energy in the spirit stones would be released and spread, circulating between heaven and earth.
Spiritual energy promotes the growth of plants. When plants mature and fall off the tree, they return the spiritual energy in their bodies to the earth. This cycle repeats itself, and the world is filled with spiritual energy.
Isn't that equivalent to replicating the operating model of the jade pendant farm into reality?
That would really require cyber cultivation.
However, these spirit stones are too few, so few that their effect on this world is almost negligible.
Even if it were a cyber cultivation, it would probably take hundreds of centuries after Xie Yunsui's death.
People at that time would definitely make the most advantageous decision based on the situation at that time. Whether it was cultivating immortals or breaking out into the interstellar space, it was the decision they should make.
Xie Yunsui smiled and said, "No, I just thought about having to work overtime again."
Li Wangruo patted his shoulder and said, "Come on, you can do it!"
A few days later, China announced that the new thermal insulation material it had secretly researched had passed multiple rounds of testing and was ready for online use.
It is also announced that wall tiles made of this new thermal insulation material will be gradually used in China, and some exports will be opened. Those who are interested are welcome to discuss it.
As soon as this news came out, it caused an uproar on domestic and international networks.
