Mingyou is making incense.
He picked, kneaded, sifted, steamed, boiled, stir-fried, roasted, and finely ground the ingredients. With the help of a high-tech cooking chamber capable of controlling temperature and humidity, and aided by Mingyou's extraordinary abilities, the incense-making process quickly reached its final stages.
Mingyou puts the ground incense powder into water with special ingredients, and then filters it with a fine cloth. After the spice powder in the water settles, it becomes the final incense powder.
The incense powder is then shaped. After shaping, it can be made into incense sticks for burning, or made into incense bags for direct wearing.
The powder needs to be allowed to settle. Mingyou, unsure of the quality of his incense for the first time, stopped working. He wanted to wait until the first incense was ready, see the final product, and then make some improvements before continuing.
Seeing several big furry animals dancing happily, Mingyou felt itchy and wanted to join in, so he asked Xiaotian to drive the RV to the hillside and ran to the RV to get the musical instruments.
When the RV drove up the hill, the big red fox paused its dance, but after sniffing the RV, it relaxed its vigilance and continued dancing to the rhythm of the big white bear's drums.
Xiaotian: "Xiaoyou! I'll let the robot help you move the piano down!"
Mingyou rummaged through the drawers and said, "No, there are too many flowers and plants here. Dabai will feel bad if they scratch the piano. I'll use this!"
Mingyou smiled and took out a small box: "I asked Dahei to find this instrument for me. Besides the piano, this is what I am best at!"
Xiaotian holographically projected a big question mark, which chased Mingyou out of the RV, and then with a "pop", it split into a handful of colorful petals and sprinkled on Mingyou's head.
Xiaotian: Get the appearance special effects!
"Come on, let's have fun together!" The big black cat dancing the zombie dance laughed so hard that his eyes couldn't be seen.
"Okay." Mingyou opened the box, took out the suona, and puffed out his cheeks. "Dududududu!"
The big red fox slipped.
The little white wolf howled and gasped.
The drumstick in the white bear's hand flew out.
The audience in the live broadcast room who were smiling and wiping away tears were all frightened by the roar of the suona.
What's that sound?! Someone's farting like a cannon!
The big black cat stopped his zombie dance and twitched his ears: "Stupid You, what are you blowing?"
Mingyou put down the suona and said, "Suona, I asked you to find it for me. Have you forgotten it?"
Whenever he was in a bad mood, or other neighbors in the nursing home were in a bad mood, everyone liked to drag him to the garden to play suona.
The suona, flute, erhu, gong and drum, everyone plays together, it's so lively.
"Suona..." The big black cat stretched his ears again. "It sounds quite lively, a bit like a military bugle."
The big black cat had never heard a suona in a concert hall before, so he was very curious. He jumped over and stroked the suona with his paws a few times: "Are there any good suona songs?"
"Is there any bad suona music?" Mingyou asked, "What style of music does Dahei want to listen to?"
The big black cat said, "Lively! Strong rhythm! Suitable for dancing!"
Mingyou nodded: "Okay, then I will play a song "Pure Land of Bliss" for you."
The big black cat tilted its head. "Pure Land of Bliss"? It sounded like a very cheerful piece of music.
Mingyou picked up the suona and puffed out his cheeks: "Dudududu, dududududu, dududududu!"
The big black cat trembled all over, and its tail exploded into a fairy wand.
Holy shit! What kind of music is this? Why is it so powerful? It's festive, sure, but why is it a little weird?
The big white bear moved his ears, summoned the robot, and replaced his snare drum with a drum set.
"Dong, dong, cha, dong, dong, cha", the big white bear quickly found the rhythm of "Pure Land of Bliss", and the bear head began to shake little by little.
The big red fox's ears stood up, and it tapped the ground lightly with its front paws. Then it jumped suddenly, raised its head, swung its tail, and twisted its body.
The big black cat scratched his head, and a lightbulb lit up in his head. He stood up on his hind legs, which were now strong enough to support him. He twisted his waist and swung his front paws left and right, perfectly coordinating with the big red fox's tail-swinging dance.
The little gray wolf also became energetic. He raised his head and followed the tune of "Awoo awoo", each sound more energetic than the last, which matched the sound of the suona. He also shook his butt while howling.
Mingyou's eyes were curved with laughter. He blew the air, shook his head, and started to twist his body.
Xiaotian found the lyrics of "Pure Land of Bliss" from the "Previous Life Music Record Book" compiled by Mingyou, and typed it on the public screen in the live broadcast room.
The moon rises, lanterns are hung, music plays, and the ceremony begins.
There are many troubles in this world, and even the most beautiful flowers will wither, so people should cherish the present.
Come on! ~ Let's sing and dance together, follow the dancing butterflies, dance together and head to the Pure Land of Bliss! ~
Xianwei, who was lying on her front paws and staring silently at her twin brother, couldn't help but let the tip of her fiery red tail bounce.
Once more, once more...
“Bang!”
The big tail swung like a burning flame, the ears twitched, and it began to become restless.
The big golden lion in the palace tried its best to control its restless front paws. Its two paws overlapped each other, but still twitched involuntarily with the music.
At this moment, a white shadow flashed in front of him, and a big cat with black spots on a white background was shaking its butt wildly to the music as if it was drunk.
I C... After glaring at his stupid son who was acting like he was having a seizure, the big golden lion swallowed the curse words.
His front paws were under control, but his tail was completely out of control, swinging back and forth in rhythm with the big snow leopard in front of him shaking its butt.
The big golden lion pressed his front paws against his ears, trying to block the evil sound from entering his head, but his tail swung even harder.
At the Duran family, a large black bear with a white crescent on its chest nodded expressionlessly, as if dozing off. If his nodding rhythm hadn't matched the suona music playing in the holographic livestream, Ian would have thought his eldest brother was almost asleep.
Ian scratched his head. Could this music really have such a profound effect on spirit beasts? Why didn't he feel anything? Was it because he couldn't transform into a beast yet?... Hey! When did his legs start shaking?!
In the military dormitory, Yan Tong transformed into a large black wolf, quietly watching the live broadcast. As she listened to her brother's howling, her throat suddenly felt itchy.
A little bit... a little bit...
"Awooo!" The big black wolf raised its head and howled.
At the same time, the big wolves and dogs in the military camp raised their heads at the same time, and the "howling" sounds rose and fell like layers of waves, almost blowing the roof of the military camp off.
The logistics staff were bewildered. What was going on? It wasn't a full moon night, and dinner wasn't even served yet. Why were those wolves howling?
They rushed into the military camp dormitory and saw a group of furry creatures wearing holographic devices on their heads. Some of them were howling wildly, some were jumping wildly, some were twisting their heads, buttocks and waists wildly, and their tails were swinging so high that they blocked out the sky. The flying fur was almost turning into a sandstorm.
"What are you doing?!" The logistics manager grabbed a familiar spirit beast, put it close to the other party's ear, and roared loudly.
It is necessary to roar loudly, as these spirit beasts are all howling.
The big dog was wagging its tail and shaking its head while typing on its laptop to the logistics manager: "Dance to 'Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss'."
Logistics Manager: ???
…
"Hey! The spirit beasts in our sanatorium are all twisting their bodies." The staff of the sanatorium said while shaking their heads wildly.
The old dean smiled and said, "What a joyful day today! Quickly record it and use it as background music for our morning gymnastics exercises."
"I wonder if I can ask His Highness for a pure version of the full song." The staff member looked at the one-legged spirit beast they had been taking care of, which was dying half a month ago, and was now using a prosthetic limb to jump around wildly, and laughed so hard that he almost cried.
This song is so magical! He can't help but want to dance along.
Everyone felt very sad when they saw the big red fox in such a miserable state.
Looking at the big red fox's dancing steps and recalling the appearance of the spirit beast Xianwei, who was known as the most beautiful dancer on Maple Leaf Star, they had already guessed that the big red fox with half of its face destroyed was the once short-lived talented dancer Xianluo.
Xianluo was once the dream lover of many men and women in the Star Alliance. Even though Xianluo is now famous throughout the Star Alliance, those who have seen Xianluo dance still regard her as the white moonlight and cinnabar mole in their hearts, an existence that can never be replaced.
They couldn't believe that such a delicate and slender beauty would abandon the romantic and decadent life and head for the brutal and bloody battlefield.
Xianluo was once ridiculed by many people who envied him. Even after he became a hero, there were still some dark-hearted people who mocked him.
There were so many S-class psychics on the battlefield, and he wasn't the only one missing. As a living cultural treasure, Xianluo didn't have to serve in the military. He could have comfortably stayed in the safest rear area, at most dancing on the front lines to boost morale. But he actually went to the battlefield himself.
stupid.
Although he is alive now, he is so ugly, it's ridiculous.
But now, they can't laugh anymore.
If the initial dance reminded the audience of the dancer Xianluo who was once as beautiful as a dream, now the big red fox happily swung its tail, pulling them back to reality from their previous dreams.
Standing before them was Xianluo, one of the Ten Heroes, who had experienced brutal wars, was one of the most powerful S-class psychics in the Star Alliance and had made outstanding contributions.
Elegance and beauty are all imposed on her by others. A true fairy, singing, dancing, and laughing, is like a true, everlasting flame.
"Hahahahahaha, I can't breathe. I won't play anymore. I give up!" Mingyou put down the suona and laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back.
The red fox and the black cat's dance together was truly magical! They even started to coordinate, swinging each other around like a duet!
He knew that Dahei was such a big black cat, but he didn't expect that Dahong was such a big red fox!
The big red fox came close to Mingyou and nudged him with its long mouth. The one eye that was not blind but dull before was now very bright, and the brown eyes were full of smiles.
Mingyou took out a bracelet made of small fiery red stones and placed it on the fox's paw. "This is a volcanic crystal. Legend has it that the crystal contains the flame of the phoenix. The phoenix can be reborn from the flames, and the phoenix flame also has the effect of restoring the vitality of fire-attributed spirit beasts."
The Phoenix flame can improve the life level of fire-attribute elves, but this volcanic crystal does not have such a powerful effect.
"By the way, Dahei, are there any bird-like spirit beasts among your companions?" Mingyou sat down on the ground and gasped.
Although he had good lung capacity and the physique of a super spirit beast master, he was still exhausted after playing "Pure Land of Bliss" continuously for more than ten minutes.
"Not at the moment. We're all beasts." The big black cat also sat down next to Mingyou, panting with its tongue hanging out like a dog. "We're all furry beasts."
Scientists in the Star Alliance have long been curious about why spirit beasts are only furry animals, while ordinary animals are usually furry mammals. However, they have yet to come up with any conclusions.
Mingyou nodded. The system said that spirit beasts and elves had the same origin. Could it be that spirit beasts were just the bloodline of one branch of elves?
Then all the props he gave to birds, reptiles and aquatic spirit beasts would be useless.
Let's tear it apart. I'll do some research. I wonder if I can make a spirit beast auxiliary prop.
After the big red fox accepted the gift, Mingyou closed the live broadcast.
The audience in the live broadcast room then collapsed on the bed, the floor, and the chairs, gasping for breath.
Ouch, why am I so tired from watching the live broadcast today? My voice is hoarse.
Well, I might as well ask my friends to go to a pub or eat skewers. It’s a good time to watch the live broadcast, and it’s a holiday that day.
It had been ages since they'd gone out with friends. The war was over, but their hearts remained on the battlefield. Even though they'd tried hard to move on, it hadn't been very successful.
In order not to hurt their relatives and friends, most of them became lone rangers, and only their comrades in the barracks could understand each other's feelings.
But now, they may be able to have a good chat with their friends and family.
There are still many worries and the wounds have not healed yet, but they really want to do something happy.
For example, they can enjoy drinking, singing, eating delicious food, and playing games. These are the things they enjoyed before the war, and now they can enjoy them again.
"That musical instrument called suona is really interesting." The spirit beasts wagged their tails, shook their ears, and searched the Internet for information about suona.
The origin of suona is no longer traceable. It may have come from an unknown asteroid in a distant era that has been lost in history.
The role of suona, a folk musical instrument used exclusively in weddings and funerals, was evaluated in one sentence on the Internet.
When the suona sounds, it means either the coffin is being lifted or the ceremony is being held in the hall.
Emmmmm.
The furries were silent.
Then they clapped their paws and laughed.
When the suona sounds, it's either the coffin being lifted or the ceremony being held in the hall! How can this little anchor be so funny! And the custom of calling both red and white events a happy event is so interesting!
Even when facing death, everyone plays the suona and dances. Even if it is just forcing a smile, it is better than crying.
…
"How about this incense?" Mingyou didn't know that suona was becoming popular among the upper echelons of the Star Alliance. He was now focusing on improving the incense he named "Xianluo".
The Big Red Fox was formerly known as Xianluo, and the name written on his household registration book was also "Xianluo." Although in Mingyou, Xianluo is the same as Dahong, if you want to name the new incense after the Big Red Fox, it is better to call it "Xianluo" to sell better.
The big black cat glanced at Mingyou.
Better sales? Isn't it because it sounds better? Does it sell better because it sounds better? I didn't expect that this silly-looking young man actually has the heart of a profiteer.
"It smells nice and comfortable." said the big white bear.
The big black cat used incense to fumigate his feet: "This works well, my feet feel much better."
"Let me use it to give you a massage." Mingyou squatted down and pinched the big black cat's hind legs.
In his previous life, traditional Chinese medicine had moxibustion therapy, and overseas, there were also aromatherapy and essential oil massage. Using angelica incense for aromatherapy and moxibustion therapy should be fine.
After he organizes the relevant information and submits it to the system, and the system scores it, he can use the knowledge points to let the system check for deficiencies and fill in the gaps.
If the system determines that this treatment plan is valid, this will be the first treatment plan that Mingyou has come up with entirely on his own. Mingyou is very excited.
"Where's Dahong?" Mingyou touched the little red fox's head.
The little red fox wearing half a mask tilted his head: "Wow." The pain on his face was gone.
"Then Dahong, just keep wearing this mask. When the scent of the mask fades, tell me and I'll change it for you." Mingyou picked up the little red fox wearing half of the mask, and his heart was almost melted by its cuteness.
Mingyou used fairy incense powder and some materials produced by the mixing system to make a half-face fox mask with a clay sculpture texture.
After the little red fox put on the half-face mask, not only did the incense continuously neutralize the remaining Zerg energy in his wounds, it also covered his scars, making the little red fox very happy.
Mingyou had long noticed that Dahong was very concerned about the scars on her face. Putting the patient in a good mood was also part of the treatment.
The fairy incense was proven to be effective, and Mingyou finished the paper overnight and handed it to the big black cat. The big black cat ordered him to kneel on a chair and reflect on his mistakes.
"Stay up late! Stay up late again! You stay up late when I'm not paying attention! Do you want to die suddenly?"
The big black cat opened its bloody mouth and roared at Mingyou madly, spraying cat saliva all over Mingyou's face.
Mingyou curled up in a ball feeling wronged and swore again and again that he would never do it again.
With the incense, the little gray wolf, whose sobriety time increased, complained to the big white bear: "Xiaoyou is really just like His Highness, listening to teachings with an open mind but refusing to repent."
The big white bear looked at Mingyou, who had a reflective expression on his face, and retorted: "It was just once. Xiaoyou is a good boy."
The little gray wolf rolled his eyes.
Haven't you heard that people are like their pets? Mingyou, being raised by His Highness, would eventually become more and more like His Highness. However, he was more than happy to let His Highness experience the hardships of those who cleaned up His Highness's mess.
Is there a conflict between admiring His Highness and wanting to see Him get humiliated? Not at all.
…
After collecting a lot of baby's breath flowers as a reserve for future incense making, the RV drove to the next destination.
This time they were going to a continuous mountain area.
The mountains are at a very high altitude. In places where spirit beasts react, even coniferous forests cannot be seen, only alpine meadows and short shrubs.
"What are Kerry and Ellie doing here?" Dahei stretched out his cat paw and pressed Mingyou, who saw some useful ore and wanted to get off the train to mine, onto the carpet in the carriage. He asked in confusion, "Are they not a mountain tribe?"
"Maybe there's something here that can help with their wounds." Big White Bear followed Mingyou's idea and said, "Kerry and Ellie both had their power cores destroyed. Maybe there's something here that can repair them?"
"Wow, if that's the case, the scientific community of the Star Alliance will be shaken." The big black cat patted Mingyou's back as he lay on the ground. "Why are you running? There are a lot of desolate beasts here. Are you going down to deliver food to them? Although the desolate beasts mostly eat vegetables and minerals, they don't mind a change of taste occasionally."
Mingyou suppressed his excitement and sat back in his seat obediently: "I was so excited when I saw the crystal stone."
Crystal stones are energy crystals that are useful to spirit beasts. In the spirit world, some energy crystals can increase the power of a spirit's moves, while others can even allow a spirit to evolve.
In the Star Alliance, the so-called evolution and degeneration of spirit beasts is simply a change in age, unlike elves, where they can directly transform into another species. However, energy crystals are still very useful to spirit beasts. The gifts he gave to Dabai and Dahong are essentially energy crystals.
"Are these energy crystals?" Arthur sent the robot down to collect some ore. "Aren't these just ordinary gems? The quality is pretty low. So these gems are energy crystals? Why didn't I realize it before?"
"You have to swallow it while in the state of a spirit beast, and then you will feel it when you use the energy in your body to digest it. However, the utilization efficiency is very low. I know a way to grind it and make it into a prop, so that it can be useful without swallowing it." Mingyou couldn't let go of the energy crystal.
This energy crystal emitted wood energy, which could promote plant growth. If a wood-attributed spirit beast could help, combined with the wood-attributed energy crystal, it might even accelerate the growth of the spirit beast fruit. That way, even if he couldn't find a replacement for the nutrient block ingredients, he wouldn't have to worry about spirit beast nutrition.
Swallowing...a few furry black lines.
No wonder the Covenant scientists failed to discover the stone's usefulness to spirit beasts. What spirit beast with any normal intelligence would swallow a stone?
"Wood attribute? No wonder Chris and Ellie came here. They both have wood attributes." Big White Bear pondered, "Maybe these energy crystals can really cure them."
"What does it mean that the power core is destroyed?" Mingyou asked. "I didn't find any information about this in the book."
The white bear explained, "The destruction of the supernatural power core is just a popular way of saying it. Supernatural powers don't rely on any particular organ; they exist throughout the spirit beast's body. Once activated by mental power, they can be used by the spirit beast."
"Current research shows that supernatural powers are closely related to vitality and mental strength. If a spirit beast is seriously injured, or if too much supernatural power is extracted at once, the body will activate its self-preservation mechanism and the supernatural power will disappear. We have not yet found a way to restore lost supernatural power."
When the supernatural power disappears, even if the spirit beast replenishes its nutrition, recovers from its injuries, and turns back into a human being, he is just an ordinary person.
