After the rain, the autumn air is crisp. Li Xiang swings his homemade high-density chopping knife, effortlessly cutting down a bamboo stalk as thick as a bowl's mouth.
Suddenly, an ordina...
Chapter 340: Snowy and Grateful Golden Cicada Blooms (Subscription Request)
Three panda cubs are playing in the snow at Panda Mountain. They are not afraid of the cold.
These are three extraordinary babies with great potential, one male and two females. The boy "Dundunxia" has the potential of Saint level, and the girls "Lamemeng" and "Yunduoduo" both have the potential of eighteenth level. It can be said that they are better than their fathers.
In a short period of time, the three cute babies have condensed two spiritual power vortexes respectively. Li Xiang has also signed soul contracts with them a long time ago. Since Tuantuan calls Li Xiang dad, they call Li Xiang grandpa.
After playing for a while, the three cubs began to scramble for the bamboo. There were obviously many tender bamboos and delicious and crispy winter bamboo shoots on the ground. However, when they saw "Dundunxia" gnawing on a harder old bamboo, "Lamemeng" and "Yunduoduo" insisted on snatching it away, as if the old and hard bamboo tasted better.
"Dun Dun Xia" is the older brother. Well, he was born just one or two minutes earlier, but Li Xiang said he was the older brother, so he was the older brother, so he gave in to his two younger sisters and gave the old bamboo to them.
The result is a tragedy.
"Lame Meng" and "Yun Duoduo" were fighting over the bamboo fibers and biting them too hard. Accidentally, "Meng Meng" (Lame Meng's nickname) got the bamboo fibers stuck between its teeth. It tried to pick it out with its claws, but the bamboo fibers were so thin that it couldn't get them out.
Mengmeng had never encountered such a "stuck teeth" situation before, and she panicked for a moment, squeaking and jumping up and down in a hurry.
Dun Dun and Duo Duo came to help it, but they couldn't do it either. After all, the panda's paws are furry, short and fat, not as flexible as humans', and they are cubs.
"Go ask dad for help." "Dundunxia" took his sister to look for Tuantuan, but unfortunately, Tuantuan was not there.
They wanted to find their aunts Huanhuan and Lele, but they were not there either. Only their mother Yuanyuan and grandmother were at home. However, these two pandas were ordinary pandas and could not help.
Just as Li Xiang came over, the three of them rushed over: "Grandpa, help, help!"
"What's wrong?" Li Xiang asked.
After signing the soul contract, under the power of "Beast Taming Canglin Yin", Li Xiang can have "soul communication" or "soul transmission" with extraordinary spirit pets within a certain range. Currently, the communication distance is three kilometers, and it is not possible to go further.
The reason why Li Xiang happened to come here just now was because he sensed that the little guys were in some trouble, so he came to check.
The voices of the three cubs are so cute, especially Mengmeng, who has tears in his eyes at the moment, looking so pitiful.
"A bamboo is stuck in my teeth!" Mengmeng hugged Li Xiang's thigh, looked up at him, her eyes full of tears.
"Oh, that's it." Li Xiang was relieved immediately. He thought it was something else, but it turned out to be just a toothache caused by chewing bamboo. It's not a big deal, look how anxious you are.
"It's okay, grandpa will help you." Li Xiang comforted Mengmeng and asked her to open her mouth wide. He checked it, then reached in and easily pulled out the bamboo fiber stuck in the gap between her teeth.
The crisis is over.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, you are so awesome!"
“Thank you, Grandpa!”
"Thank you, Grandpa."
"It's okay, it's a small matter. Don't chew old bamboo in the future. Wait until you grow up and your teeth are stronger before chewing it, okay?" Li Xiang said.
"I know, I know, we won't do it again." The three panda cubs admitted their mistakes in a good manner.
When Li Xiang was about to leave, Meng Meng called out, "Grandpa, wait a minute."
"What's wrong?" Li Xiang turned around.
Under Li Xiang's curious gaze, Meng Meng turned around and took out a few goodies from the cave: "Grandpa, Grandpa, these are for you."
Li Xiang took a look and found that it was "Golden Cicada Flower".
This is a treasure in the bamboo forest. It is actually a complex formed by the larvae of cicadas infected with fungi. It is called the Cordyceps sinensis of the South. It has the effects of dispersing wind-heat, clearing rashes, extinguishing wind and stopping spasms, and improving eyesight and removing cataracts. It is a precious Chinese medicinal material, expensive and in short supply.
"I found this when I was digging bamboo shoots. It's delicious." Seeing that Li Xiang didn't take it, Mengmeng still held the claw and wanted to put it into Li Xiang's mouth.
"Why did you give it to me?" Li Xiang touched its head and asked.
"My father told me to be grateful. My grandfather helped me to remove the bamboo that was stuck. I have to show my gratitude. This is polite and also shows my gratitude."
"Oh~" Li Xiang was surprised. This little thing could talk. It had a high EQ. So he immediately took its "Golden Cicada Flower", picked it up and kissed it a few times, gave it some pointers on its cultivation, and rewarded it with a spiritual fruit.
Dun Dun: “…”
Duoduo: “…”
Dun Dun blinked and suddenly an epiphany came to his mind. He thought to himself, no wonder both dad and grandpa like Meng Meng so much. I thought it was because of the "La Mo Meng" trademark that could make money for grandpa, but it turns out not to be the case!
The "Lame Meng" Maocai chain store is quite profitable, and Meng Meng is also the most popular person on the Internet.
However, Li Xiang likes Mengmeng the most, not because of this.
Although Mengmeng does not have the greatest potential, she is the most well-behaved and the cutest. She said these words today, and her emotional intelligence is close to that of Yao Yao, Zhao Xueqing, and Lei Xiaohui.
Moreover, its voice is very cute and sincere, and it is definitely not acting on purpose. At such a young age, it does not have so many scheming thoughts.
How could one not like such adorable panda cubs? After playing with the three panda cubs for a while, Li Xiang checked the other two ordinary pandas and found that they were fine, so he left with peace of mind.
The whole world was frozen and the weather was extremely cold. Li Xiang built warmer nests for them and stored sufficient food, which was piled up into a small hill and could not be finished every day.
He came to the Elephant Mountain, where the elephants also lived in the wide caves, with only a few naughty ones running out to play. But it was too cold, so they would go back after playing for a while.
There were also mountains of food inside, so the elephants had no worries about food and drink, and all of them were very satisfied.
In addition, several baby elephants were born in the herd, three of which also had extraordinary potential, but they were born not long ago and had not yet started practicing. Li Xiang also took special care of them, feeding them first-level spiritual medicine from time to time.
In order to increase genetic diversity, Li Xiang personally went to Southeast Asia and captured some female and male elephants to prevent inbreeding.
There is food and drink here, and the new elephants quickly adapt to life here.
The little white elephant was not at home, but its mother, the leader of the herd, the head elephant, had been guarding the Elephant Mountain and restraining the other elephants. What surprised Li Xiang was that perhaps because of the cold weather or because of the improvement of her realm, the mother elephant had grown long black hair all over her body, showing signs of the revival of the ancient mammoth bloodline, and her tusks were getting longer and longer, shining with silver light and aura.
It deserves the name of "Silver-toothed Mammoth".
Several other ordinary elephants also grew dense fur, but not as long as the head elephants. Moreover, with abundant food, the elephants' subcutaneous fat became thicker and thicker. This should be a normal phenomenon caused by the extremely cold weather.
When Li Xiang arrived at Hushan, he saw a lively scene.
Tuantuan, the little white elephant, and the little golden tiger were fighting each other. Huanhuan, Lele, and several other tigers were watching the fun from the side.
They waved bamboos happily and cheered for Tuan Tuan.
The little golden tiger also has his mother and sister to cheer him up, but the little white elephant is alone and at a disadvantage. However, relying on its size advantage and the strength to "move mountains", it uses the "Vajra Whip Technique" to create wind and thunder, split stones and crack rocks, and looks the most powerful.
Noticing Li Xiang's arrival, the three beasts became more energetic and fought more fiercely, each displaying their unique skills. For a moment, the roars of tigers, the roars of elephants, and the brays of pandas shook the mountains and forests.
Ten miles away, in a valley, a group of wild boars were trembling with fear, and some of them even urinated.

However, the villagers in the surrounding area were not surprised at all and were used to it.
Everyone knows that it is Xiang Ge'er's pet, and they are competing with each other. As the most powerful armored man in the world, what's wrong with raising a few beast pets? This is supported by the country.
They will also be the backbone of guarding their hometown in the end of the world. Therefore, the villagers are not only not afraid, but also often come to watch when the weather is good and take the initiative to explain to tourists.
Of course, now the roads are blocked by ice and snow and the cold is unbearable. All scenic spots are closed and employees are on holiday, but there are no tourists coming.
…
The tunnels and underground commercial plazas centered on Lijia Village have become popular in China because this is the Internet age and short videos are well developed.
Many locals braved the ice and snow to come and check in, and the flow of people in the tunnel increased significantly.
As the flow of people increases, more stalls are set up to do business, selling all kinds of delicious food and a strong sense of the local cuisine.
As for outsiders, due to inconvenient transportation, they can only watch on their mobile phones, which only adds to their envy.
"I really want to live in Lijia Village. Is it too late to move now?"
"That's definitely not possible. Do you think the household registration system is just for show? Unless you are very rich. No, even if you are rich, it won't work. You have to be very talented, or have a natural talent for cultivation."
"Lijia Village is now also very popular."
"Isn't it? That's where the most powerful Armored Man in the world resides. I dare to predict that it will become a holy place for the world in the future. The new center."
Due to the large number of people flowing in every day, security guards alone could no longer maintain the situation. Therefore, the county dispatched police (including traffic police) to help maintain order.
In addition, lighting facilities and ventilation equipment are being installed throughout the tunnel.
In fact, Li Xiang had designed a secret ventilation hole before, which could be maintained if there were few people. However, the popularity was beyond his expectations. As more people came, the smell of smoke and cigarettes increased, and the air was not fresh enough, so the county government took over and installed large exhaust fans.
Li Xiang also used his earth-related abilities to add some new air vents.
At the same time, the fire brigade was also dispatched urgently to deploy various fire hydrants, and at the same time strengthened training and safety education for the public to prevent accidents before they occur.
In addition, several public toilets were added and a new septic tank was built in the distance.
With Li Xiang's help, the relevant departments of the county government were able to carry out these tasks smoothly.
Li Xiang's name was on all the work reports of the county government. Of course, with Li Xiang's current status and position, he didn't really care about it. It didn't matter whether his name was added or not. But the county had to add it. Well, the main reason was that the county thought it was an honor to add Li Xiang's name.
Even the county wanted to change its name to "Lijia County", but was rejected by Li Xiang.
Then Li Xiang was invited to attend various meetings in the county. Li Xiang didn't have that much time, so he only selected a few important ones to participate, but he tried not to speak during the meetings.
But sometimes I can't help but say a few words. Often, I get thunderous applause after just a few words.
Li Xiang: “…”
Later, I simply stopped participating.
He had a legitimate excuse: his wife was about to give birth and he had to stay at home to take care of her.
In fact, Jiang Caier was about to give birth. A month in advance, Li Xiang took her to the provincial capital, admitted her to the best hospital, and booked the most expensive suite.
All expenses incurred in giving birth are fully reimbursed by the province, and there is also a high maternity allowance.
Within a few days of moving in, many leaders from the county, province, and capital came to visit me. Not to mention Tsinghua University, where many leaders, teachers, and classmates came.
The room was filled with all kinds of gifts, and Li Xiang couldn't refuse them. Fortunately, he had a warehouse in another dimension and stored them all.
Oh my god, after the news spread, people were no longer surprised and felt that it would be abnormal not to have these benefits.
