"You'll know once it's made."

She gave a light reply, reached out and took the seaweed, then lit a flame with her right hand, keeping it at a distance that was just right to dry it without burning it.

After the seaweed was quickly dried, she piled it up and, remembering the techniques she had learned from the local people, slowly spread it out and carefully folded it together.

[Huh, what's going on here?]

[Family members, I've looked it up on Baidu. Seaweed houses do exist, but a long time ago, during a battle with the Zerg, the last remaining area of ​​intangible cultural heritage seaweed houses was destroyed by the Zerg.]

I know that, but this craft has been lost for a long time. Otherwise, seaweed houses wouldn't have become a part of history, leaving only photographs.

[Sigh, isn't that also related to the extinction of plants? I remember decades ago, an old man looked at a picture of a seaweed-thatched house and cried, saying that if humans continue to be so unrestrained, it won't just be plants that go extinct.]

...

Kazel watched as Mu Qingyun folded and twisted her fingers, quickly turning the dried seaweed into spiral shapes.

Curious, he moved closer, but Mu Qingyun's movements were too fast for him to see clearly.

"What kind of technique is this? Slow down, let me take a closer look."

"What, you want to help me?" Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun slowed down her movements and turned to look at Kazel.

"Of course not. We already had a bet. If I win, you'll have to give me a lot of money." As he spoke, he casually picked up a piece of seaweed and ate it.

"I can tell."

Mu Qingyun snorted coldly and pushed the seaweed on the shore toward herself. "Instead of helping, you're stealing my seaweed."

"Hmph, wasn't it me who brought it up?" Kazel muttered under his breath.

"Brother Mu!"

Xiong Ruoyou's voice suddenly came from behind. Mu Qingyun looked up and saw that the four people in the cave had come out together.

"You've come at the perfect time," she said with a slight smile, waving the seaweed in her hand. "Come and help."

"They're here!" The four people rushed forward, surrounding her and looking at the finished product in her hands with expressions of amazement.

Su took a piece of woven seaweed, held it in her hand and pulled hard. She had to admit that the seaweed was as tough as steel wire and could not be broken.

“I’ll teach you, and you can help. Let’s get it done as soon as possible so we can move into a house.” She picked up a few pieces of seaweed and was about to demonstrate to them when Kazel flapped its tail, splashing water onto her.

Are you sick?

She turned her head coldly to stare at Kazel, a flash of anger in her eyes.

Kazel, however, was not afraid at all. He looked up at her and smiled slightly. "I want to learn too. Come a little closer, I want to watch as well."

"If you want to see, come over here yourself. We can't expect the instructors to come and accommodate you," Su said calmly. When Kazel and Mu Qingyun looked over, she quickly put on an innocent smile.

“That’s right, we should learn to do it ourselves.” Mu Qingyun nodded, agreeing with Su’s words.

Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Kazel's eyes. He braced himself against the shore with his arms and rolled onto the land.

He did not revert to human form, but remained in his fishtail form. He took a few steps to Mu Qingyun, and his dazzling tail followed her behind, gently pounding the ground.

Sensing the fish tail behind her, Mu Qingyun glanced at it a few times out of the corner of her eye, and then demonstrated the seaweed weaving motion she had just performed.

[Holy crap, holy crap, Kazel really likes my Mu-ge, oh my god.]

Look at that tail, isn't it deliberately trying to seduce people?

Wow, it's so sweet, I'm so thirsty!

Wait a minute, was Sue jealous just now? Otherwise, why would he say that to Kazel?

[Yes, Su seems to have some inexplicable hostility towards Kazel, hahaha, this is the kind of chaotic love triangle I love to watch!]

[This is amazing! I absolutely love it! I'm going to grab some peanuts and sunflower seeds so I can eat while I watch.]

Su Yuguang glanced at the comments on the screen, a helpless smile appearing on his lips.

These people have misunderstood him. He's not jealous at all; his sexual orientation has always been female.

His hostility toward Kazel stemmed from his feeling that the man harbored ill intentions; there is no such thing as sudden goodwill in this world, all goodwill is tainted by ulterior motives.

The four of them are teammates. Not to mention the past six months of living and working together, even just the fact that they are hunting virtual creatures together, none of them can harbor any disloyalty.

Kazel's kindness came very suddenly. Unless Kazel really fell in love with Mu Qingyun at first sight, then he had nothing to say.

After Mu Qingyun finished teaching, everyone was smart enough to see her weave a few, and they figured out a few more on their own. They were already able to weave seaweed quite well.

Wow, how come they're all so smart? Why couldn't I learn it?

[To the person upstairs: I'm in the same boat as you. I've replayed it several times, but I still don't understand where Brother Mu was going with that walk.]

[Perhaps it's because we didn't have seaweed on hand, so we couldn't put it into practice.]

[Yes, I think so too. It's definitely because we didn't have the materials, not because I'm stupid.]

...

On the other side, the dean and professors of a prestigious university were all watching Mu Qingyun's live stream, rewinding it several times. Pairs of elderly professors, some wearing glasses and others frowning, stared intently at the screen, their eyes filled with astonishment.

"He knows many lost skills, and he has been trending on social media many times before."

The dean looked at Mu Qingyun with her short hair and pushed up her glasses. "I called everyone here today to discuss something with you all."

"Please speak, Dean."

The other senior professors immediately turned to stare at the dean.

"If Mu Qingyun survives his military academy trial, we will specially invite him to our university to start a new intangible cultural heritage program and invite him to be a professor and lecturer."

The dean stared at Mu Qingyun on the screen, quite satisfied with his idea, and rubbed his chin smugly.

"I agree."

I agree.

Without exception, the professors all raised their hands in agreement.

Their university is one of the top universities on the planet, on par with another imperial university.

In terms of school capabilities, they naturally excel, but Imperial University has always had excellent resources due to the support of the Empire.

This intangible cultural heritage transmission program is unique to their university. If it's run well, it could become the most powerful university on the planet, bar none.

However, their discussion was so lively that the deans and professors at the Imperial University seized the opportunity.

"Your Majesty, this is our idea. Mu Qingyun is remarkable. Intangible cultural heritage may become the most popular subject among the public."

The former dean of the Imperial University looked at the Imperial King on the throne and earnestly stated his thoughts.

However, as he spoke with great enthusiasm, he failed to notice that the king's expression grew increasingly grim after hearing the name Mu Qingyun.
