Chapter 162 Jinjiang Exclusive
The holographic equipment frightened and shocked the young and strong people so much that they were no longer so resistant to the heavy work of clearing snow.
When I got home after a tiring day, I excitedly told my family about the magic of the holographic training equipment.
So much so that the next day, except for the young and strong, most of the villagers came to the training room, filling the not-so-big double safe house.
"Lu Xuan, your training equipment sounds very interesting. Can we try it too?" Su Ying asked boldly.
Wu Yinyin, Li Yue, Liu Yu and other young women also looked expectant.
Miao Jinfeng, Aunt Chen and other elderly aunts have heard from their sons how scary holographic equipment is. Although they are curious, they have no intention of experiencing it themselves.
Lu Xuan said indifferently: "As long as you are not afraid of being scared, it's fine."
"You all dare to come up, what do we have to be afraid of? Aren't they all fake?" Wu Yinyin said with a smile.
Wu Cheng and Wu Yang, father and son, secretly shook their heads at their daughter/sister's audacity.
Other women who wanted to experience it also stepped forward.
There weren't many people, only eight in total.
The experience was the same as yesterday, and the difficulty was comparable to that of the young men yesterday, except that the animals were changed, leaving only wolves and wild boars.
Training begins.
The other elderly women who did not participate were still shocked when they saw the screen display, even though they had heard the process from their younger generations.
"Oh my God! They really appeared in there!"
"Wolf! There's a wolf!"
"Oh my god, it's so scary!" A timid aunt saw a wolf pouncing towards the female family members and was so scared that she quickly closed her eyes.
There was no scene of turning the tide, and all the female family members were forced to leave at the first opportunity without exception.
When they took off their glasses, their little faces turned pale.
Hearing and experiencing it personally are not the same thing after all, and the eight people were obviously quite frightened.
Zhang Chengming, Wu Yang and others, who had expected this to happen, shook their heads.
Now you know how to be afraid.
That was something that scared all of them so much that they didn't dare to go into it a second time. Could they have endured it just for the sake of joining in the fun?
Of course, things are different now than they were yesterday.
They are no longer the same as they were yesterday!
Believing they already had experience, and their confidence bolstered by a night of mental preparation and rehearsal, the young men took the glasses, held their heads high, and said, "Step aside, and let us show you a demonstration!"
"They are just wolves and wild boars. I can definitely use my supernatural powers to easily defeat them this time!"
The audience in the live broadcast room were saying: "You were clearly numb with fear yesterday, and you're shaking again so soon?"
[Is this a way to show off in front of the female relatives? ]
[Anchor! Show them some more! Let them know that being in the spotlight isn't easy!]
Lu Xuan did not respond, but then added back the ferocious beasts such as tigers, leopards, and bears, increased the gravity, and added strong winds and heavy rain.
As a result, the confident and motivated young men were either pressed to the ground by the sudden increase in gravity or nearly blown away by the strong wind as soon as they entered the training mode.
Or they were so soaked that they didn't notice the beasts attacking them, and were forced to escape again before they could react.
The ladies who thought they would see some wonderful demonstration:???
That’s it? ?
Is this specifically to give them a negative example?
Su Ying, who was unhappy because of her poor performance, didn't say anything, but just laughed softly in a voice that everyone could hear.
Wu Yinyin whispered to Ye Ping beside her, "This isn't much better than our situation."
The young men's faces turned red, and they looked embarrassed and awkward, staring at Lu Xuan with eyes full of resentment.
How can they brag about it when they go back after losing face in front of their wives/sisters/younger sisters/mothers?
Don’t they have any face?
Lu Xuan chuckled: If you are a rookie, just practice more. How dare a rookie ask for face?
The young and strong men understood what Lu Xuan meant from his eyes and felt even more aggrieved.
Of course they will practice hard!
Isn't it a rare occasion for the women in the family to come over, and they want to show off their powerful and majestic side a little bit.
Who would have thought that Lu Xuan would not cooperate at all.
The young men who noticed their wives' disgusted expressions looked like they had lost all hope in life.
"Forget it, don't think about it."
Zhang Chengming wiped his face and said, "If you want to practice, practice well. Improving your strength is the most important thing."
The others also understood this and quickly cheered up.
That’s right, if they practice hard, one day even if Lu Xuan deliberately makes things difficult for them, they will be able to defeat those beasts and take the limelight!
Next, the young and strong men became focused, forgetting their relatives and other villagers who were still watching, and began to concentrate on thinking about how to use their special abilities in the training mode.
Lu Xuan did not continue to make things difficult for them. He let those with non-offensive abilities choose their weapons. Anyway, the intelligent system would automatically adjust other interference factors under the same risk factor.
Including when the psychic starts to get better, the number of ferocious beasts that appear will gradually increase from one to two, and even the attacking psychic will face two ferocious beasts at the beginning.
This also led to the fact that even if the young and strong men stood up again, they still failed to avenge their previous humiliation today and were tortured to death.
The female members of the family were watching with great interest, and the audience was equally delighted, with the data in the live broadcast room rising rapidly.
While others were training, Lu Xuan also let the female family members try out the mecha tutorial.
It’s okay if the holographic glasses are not enough.
The device mall had not unlocked the purchasing permission, but the universal glasses had been unlocked long ago, so Lu Xuan directly bought dozens of pairs.
The general version of the device supports one hundred people online at the same time, so it is no problem to let all the female relatives try it out at once.
However, the older women were not very interested in these fighting and killing, and they all shook their heads and refused. In the end, only the young women were tested.
The test results showed that the number of female family members who could ride on the mecha was half that of the males, only five.
They are Wei Xiang, Wu Yinyin, Wei Qiaoqiao, Su Ying, and the new daughter-in-law Wen Cui who joined the village with her younger brother.
The five people knew nothing about mechas, but they were not afraid of being embarrassed, nor did they care whether they would have the opportunity to use them in the future. As long as they could master one more skill, a skill that many men could not learn, they were willing to practice!
Falling down? Like a flipped turtle, unable to get up?
It doesn’t matter!
They may fall today and fall tomorrow, but one day they will learn to stand up, walk, run and jump.
The audience in the live broadcast room felt emotional as they watched the women working hard to learn how to operate the mecha.
[Who says women in ancient times were ignorant and lack ambition? Aren't they much better than men?]
[Their ignorance is also due to ancient feudal ideology. In terms of willpower, they are stronger than many men. As long as they are willing to try, they may not be worse than men.]
Lu Xuan also admired their spirit and took the initiative to connect to their built-in voice devices to teach them some tips he had summarized in the past two days.
Just when the two were concentrating on teaching and learning, someone in the live broadcast room suddenly caught Lu Xuan's attention by throwing gifts crazily.
[Host, check the control screen! Someone is trying to get themselves killed! !]
Lu Xuan looked back and found that there was indeed an abnormality among the dozens of split screens.
The entire screen was covered with mutated plants that shouldn't appear in the lowest difficulty level.
In the middle, there was a weak, helpless and pitiful person with a terrified face, jumping up and down trying to escape, but was whipped by the ubiquitous vines and was spinning and jumping in the air, screaming with his eyes closed.
"Ah! So many vampire vines!"
"It looks a bit different from the vampire vine, doesn't it?"
"The trees, the branches are moving! They're all moving. Those plants are actually alive!"
The onlookers were terrified and cried out in surprise, especially Su Ying, who stared at her man intently.
Xiong Mao was hit by the vines several times. In panic, he gathered earth thorns to try to break the vines, but he couldn't even scratch the skin of the vines.
In the end, the whole person was sucked into the heart of a huge carnivorous plant with a diameter of more than five meters, which was full of acid and sharp teeth inside, and was eaten alive by the carnivorous plant on the spot.
Everyone: “!!!!”
Lu Xuan clicked on the split-screen setting details and saw that the risk factor was 10 and the authenticity was 100%.
Lu Xuan: “……?”
How can a person commit suicide to this extent?
He was confident that he wouldn't get hurt when he drove with 100% authenticity, but what about Xiong Mao?
“Ahhhhhh that hurts—!”
Xiong Mao took off his glasses and shouted in fear. His legs went weak and he fell to the ground. His fierce face showed unprecedented panic and horror.
100% authenticity is no different from being swallowed by a real carnivorous plant. The pain of being corroded by the venom is real.
Even if he withdraws, the experience of his flesh being corroded will not disappear. Instead, it will leave a heavy shadow in Xiong Mao's heart, as if he had really experienced it himself.
"Ah Xuan, what happened to Xiong Mao? Is there something wrong with your equipment?"
Xiong Mao's experience was obviously completely different from that of others, which made Li Tie and other villagers nervous.
Lu Xuan briefly explained the reason to them, and they relaxed. Then they restrained their sympathy and looked at Xiong Mao with speechless eyes.
Li Tie angrily said, "Look at you, you can't even handle the most dangerous ones, yet you dare to challenge something more difficult? Do you really think you're that powerful?"
The other aunts also shook their heads, "It is important for people to know their own limitations. Xiong Mao is too arrogant."
"It's 100% realistic, just like he was actually eaten. I even saw Xiong Mao's skin corroded and ulcerated. Ss ...
Su Ying, who had just exited the tutorial and was about to take a break, felt angry and distressed after hearing the whole story.
He didn't bother to save face for Xiong Mao in public, and started scolding him with his finger on his nose.
Xiong Mao, still immersed in fear, reflexively said nice words to comfort others, and for a moment forgot the pain he had just experienced.
With the previous experience of Xiong Mao as a lesson, Lu Xuan simply adjusted the risk factor to a maximum of 5, the maximum pain level to 50%, and then locked these two functions directly.
No one can change it except him.
Never underestimate human passion and interest in seeking death, no matter what era.
After the insurance was taken out, the training of the young and strong men finally got back on track.
The training content Lu Xuan set for them was different every day.
Today we will mainly train practical combat skills including weapons and super powers. Tomorrow we will do gravity training, and the day after tomorrow we will do extreme survival under natural disasters, etc.
The energy consumption of dozens of people using holographic equipment every day is not small. Lu Xuan certainly will not be the one to be taken advantage of. After calculating the energy consumption, he directly asks the village chief for reimbursement.
Li Tie: “…”
·
Li family.
Miao Jinfeng, who had just finished harvesting the first batch of mushrooms since the beginning of winter, was cleaning the dirt off the mushrooms with salt water while muttering, "Are those two brats still in the training room?"
Wu Yinyin, who was helping nearby, nodded and said, "I'll go there after lunch."
Miao Jinfeng complained, "Before we had holographic equipment, didn't we only practice for the morning? Now why are we doing it in the afternoon too?"
Li Yue smiled and said, "I guess he just started using the holographic equipment and is still very new to it."
Miao Jinfeng frowned, "You can't just hang out in the training room all day."
Wu Yinyin only went to practice with the mecha in the morning and returned home to help in the afternoon. Her two sons were not as sensible as her daughter-in-law.
It’s not that Miao Jinfeng doesn’t want to see her son be motivated and want to become stronger, the key is, you can practice, but don’t let it interfere with serious matters.
It has been two days since these guys started using the holographic equipment and haven't cleared the snow.
Isn’t it said that crops won’t grow big or even die if they don’t see the light?
What? Are you thinking that there is too much food stored at home and you don’t plan to harvest new food?
Can't live like this?
Improving strength is for living a good life. What they are doing now is just putting the cart before the horse.
The more Miao Jinfeng thought about it, the more she felt that this was not going to work. She had to go talk to the boss.
Miao Jinfeng threw down the mushrooms in her hand and went into the house. Not long after, she came out and asked her daughter and daughter-in-law, "Where is your father? Why isn't he here?"
Li Yue said, "Dad went to the Lu family not long ago, saying he wanted to discuss something."
…
The Lu family's living room.
Li Tie looked at Lu Xuan in confusion as he was using his time ability to catalyze a box of persimmon cakes.
"I asked Li Tuo and the others, and they said it was you who said we don't need to clear the snow for now? What did you think? Wouldn't it affect the harvest in the fields?"
Lu Xuan said: "It won't have any impact. The reason we stopped for two days is because there wasn't enough snow piled up before."
Li Tie was stunned. "Isn't that enough? The roof of the greenhouse is already piled half a meter thick."
Lu Xuan was surprised, "Is it already this thick? Then it is almost ready to be swept."
Li Tie was speechless.
If you wait until it's so thick to sweep it, won't it take more effort? What's the point?
Li Tie looked helpless. "It'll be dark in less than an hour. If we start sweeping now, will we have to work until midnight?"
Lu Xuan shook his head and said, "No need, we can finish it before dark."
Li Tie: “???” How is that possible.
Outside the greenhouse.
Zhang Chengming used an extended shovel in his hand to cut and scoop the snow on the roof, while Wu Yang used another horizontally extended shovel to shovel at the highest point of the roof, and then moved from left to right along the top to the end.
Finally, they both tapped the edge of the house lightly with the back of the tool.
The snow on the roof trembled slightly, and then, as others looked on in amazement, it fell heavily into a row of large plastic boxes that had been placed below with a "scramble", stirring up a cloud of snow mist.
Li Tie opened his mouth wide and asked excitedly: "How, how did you do this!?"
Just two people, with just a few cuts and scratches, the entire roof of snow fell off! ?
Although it's only half of the snow, it won't take much time or energy to shake the snow off the other side using the same method!
Lu Xuan said: "That's how it was done. Didn't you see it too?"
This is the most cost-effective manual snow removal method in the north found by the viewer who offered to help.
Only the two types of tools used by Zhang Chengming and Wu Yang are needed. For the steps of vertical and horizontal cutting, you can refer to the process of cutting a cake.
The snow that was originally stuck to the roof due to ice on the bottom is separated from the roof. Then, through slight vibrations and taking advantage of the original slope of the roof, the snow will slide down automatically, eliminating the need for manual sweeping.
This method requires almost no technical content.
The reason why Lu Xuan and no one in the village thought of it was because they had no experience.
Yunlu Village is located in the north, but not far enough north. There has never been much snow in previous winters. There is no demand, so there is naturally no need to rack one's brains to think of ways to save effort in snow removal.
Lu Xuan never had to worry about clearing snow before and after the end of the world. When he was clearing snow two days ago, he didn't see any large chunks of snow falling from the roof.
With the simple and convenient means of snow removal, the hunting team and the guard team, totaling more than 40 young and strong men, each responsible for an area of five acres. As Lu Xuan had said to Li Tie before, all the snow on the roofs was shaken off before dark.
Even the last bit of floating snow did not require the use of a wind-type mutant. Lu Xuan found a large, powerful hair dryer in the mall and blew it hard at the roof to make it clean.
From now on, I no longer have to spend half a day every day shoveling snow and get exhausted.
Cleaning once every three days is enough!
Li Tie couldn't help but say happily, "Great, great, with so many convenient ways to remove snow, the young and strong people in the village can have an easier time and can free up their hands to do other things."
Li Jing and Li Tuo were so tired from shoveling snow a few days ago that their appetites decreased. As a father, how could he not feel sorry for them?
When the young and strong people knew that they no longer had to shovel snow every day, they shouted with excitement for a long time.

Lu family.
Lu Qing ate the freshly made python jerky with gusto and exclaimed in amazement, "I didn't expect python jerky to be so delicious. It's just as good as beef jerky."
Lu Xuan and Lei Yan, who were also tasting the dried meat, nodded in agreement.
It’s really good.
The meat is firm and chewy, but it does not have the obvious muscle fibers of beef jerky. It is easy to get stuck in your teeth if you eat too much, but it becomes more delicious the more you chew it.
Because it is coated with a layer of honey, whether it is five-spice, spicy or original flavor, it has the sweetness of fruit honey and the taste is particularly rich.
Lu Qing couldn't help but eat several of them, and her mouth became dry and parched.
She casually picked up a cup of hot milk tea from the space. Just after taking the first sip, her brows suddenly frowned. She quickly put down the cup, turned her head and started to retch.
"vomit--"
"What's wrong?" Lei Yan was shocked when he saw this.
Lu Qing stroked her chest and frowned, "I don't know, I just suddenly felt that the milk tea smelled fishy..."
Lei Yan was stunned for a moment, picked up the teacup and sniffed it, "Could it be that the milk tea has gone bad?"
Lu Qing said with a smile: "The space can keep things fresh, so how can it go bad?"
The audience who were originally concentrating on eating the dried meat also found it strange to see this, but at the same time, some of them were quick to guess what was going on.
Lu Xuan also had a guess.
He took out a salted fish and shook it in front of Lu Qing.
Lu Qing looked puzzled. When she smelled the strong fishy smell of salted fish, her face changed. She rushed to the kitchen and vomited violently. "Ugh—"
Lei Yan was so scared that he quickly followed.
"Why are you reacting so strongly? I've never gotten this way when I smelled salted fish before. Why this time—" The voice suddenly stopped.
A moment later, when the couple returned to the living room, they both looked indescribably nervous.
"Ah Xuan, I..." Lu Qing looked at Lu Xuan in panic.
Lu Xuan didn't say anything, but took out the treatment device and examined Lu Qing.
After a moment, he curled his lips and said, "Congratulations, it's good news."
Lu Qing: “!!!”
Lei Yan: “!!!”
Live audience: [Wow! It really happened! Congratulations!]
[The Lu family is getting a new member. ]
I wonder if the baby will look like the anchor.
[Don't they say nephews resemble their uncles? Maybe they really do.]
[Speaking of which, superpowers have a certain probability of being inherited. Is it possible that Lu Qing is carrying a second clone-type superpower?]
【!!! 】
Lu Xuan: “…” The little thing hasn’t even started to feel its heartbeat yet, and you’re really thinking too far ahead.
Lu Qing was a little dazed for a moment after hearing the good news.
The big surprise made her mind a little dazed and she had wild thoughts. No wonder she had been sleepier than usual these past two days. She thought it was because people who hibernate are inevitably lazy, but it turned out to be because... she was pregnant?
Yes, a child?
"I'm going to be a father!?" Lei Yan reacted faster than Lu Qing. He excitedly picked up Lu Qing and started spinning in circles.
"Hahahaha, wife, you're going to be a mother too! We have a child!!!" You no longer have to feel sad about not being able to have children!
Lu Qing was startled by his embrace, her maternal instinct suddenly erupting, and she shouted anxiously, "Put me down! The child! The child is in danger!"
When Lei Yan heard this, his body froze. He quickly calmed the man down and carefully helped him sit down on the sofa.
Lu Xuan said, "Don't worry, children born to people with special abilities are very strong. Although the pregnancy is still young, there is no need to worry about the fetus being unstable."
The couple finally breathed a sigh of relief, followed by pure excitement and joy.
Especially Lu Qing, who had been looking forward to this child for a long time, finally had it!
With red eyes, she grabbed Lei Yan's hand tightly and said over and over again: "Brother Yan, child, we have a child, finally a child."
…
Not long after, when Lu Chen came home from school, he learned that his sister was pregnant and that he was going to be an uncle. He immediately excitedly used the communicator to tell the good news to his other friends.
Soon, the women from each family who heard the news came to congratulate with meat, eggs, dried fruits and other supplies.
Ye Ping took Lu Qing's hand and congratulated her, "That's great! You've always wanted a child, and now you're finally having one."
Zhu Qiao'er touched her belly enviously and said, "I wonder when I can have a child too."
Many of the women surrounding Lu Qing had the same idea, including several new brides.
As latecomers, they are more eager than the original villagers to give birth to a child for their husband's family as soon as possible so that they can gain a firm foothold in their husband's family and not worry about losing their current good life.
Ye Ping and Ye Jing are fine. The former has already given birth to three children for Zhang Chengming, while the latter just gave birth not long ago and her son is still young.
Although Wu Yinyin only gave birth to Li Kangbao, she should have wanted to give birth to more children for the Li family. However, she was open-minded and felt that children would come when they were supposed to, so there was no need to think too much.
Su Ying, who also only gave birth to Xiong Dabao, is different. She wants to have another one, or even two or three.
Their family has too few people, and having more children will make the family more lively. In the future, there will be more labor force at home, and it will also give the family more confidence.
Her beautiful eyes turned slightly, and she said, "Lu Qing was able to find out she was pregnant because of morning sickness. Just because the others didn't react doesn't necessarily mean they're not pregnant, right? Should we get checked out? Maybe we can get some more good news."
The women who were talking were stunned.
The women present were all from the younger generation. After hearing this, they were inevitably moved and looked at Lu Qing expectantly.
Lu Qing smiled and said, "Go ahead and check if you want. Xuan just gave me the treatment device."
What's more, after checking, I found out that some of them were pregnant, and there was more than one!
Zhu Qiaoer and Ke Wei both have it!
Zhu Qiaoer was completely stunned when she found out that she was pregnant.
"I, I'm really pregnant?" She looked incredulous.
Although my mother-in-law never expressed any dissatisfaction with the fact that she had no children in three years since she got married, she would occasionally mutter to her grandson Fang Yuan that it would be great if she could hold a grandson in her arms one day when she was teasing him.
Whether it was to continue the Liu family's bloodline or for herself to have a child, Zhu Qiaoer was eager to get pregnant and even dreamed about it.
She even privately asked Lu Qing to use a treatment device to check her and Liu Chun's health to confirm that there was nothing wrong with them. The reason they couldn't get pregnant was simply because they were not destined to be together.
But she never expected that fate was already in her belly!
Ke Wei is even more surprising.
She and Wei Dayong had been married for just over two months, and neither the Wei family nor she herself was in a hurry to have a baby.
Who knew that she was already pregnant for a month.
This means that she became pregnant just one month after her marriage.
This speed is really fast!
After being surprised, the others congratulated the two of them one after another.
Su Ying, who was the only one who made this suggestion but didn't get any good news, felt as jealous as if she was soaked in a vinegar jar.
Uncomfortable!
What's even more uncomfortable is that when I get home I have to face Xiong Dabao who is scratching his head because he can't memorize the multiplication table, and Xiong Mao who is in the training room and is sweaty and smelly even though he doesn't need to do any strenuous exercise.
Su Ying was so angry that she pulled Xiong Mao's ear into the room.
Xiong Mao thought that he was going to be scolded by his wife because of his sweaty smell, but he didn't expect that as soon as the door was closed, Su Ying couldn't wait to pull his clothes.
"Wife, wife? It's not dark yet?" Xiong Mao was flattered.
Su Ying was both angry and anxious, "Why do you care whether it's dark or not? It's not like we haven't done things in broad daylight before!"
"Lu Qing, Zhu Qiao'er, even Ke Wei is pregnant, but I'm the only one with no movement! No, I have to get pregnant again!"
Xiong Mao certainly wouldn't refuse her initiative, so he just said, "Then I'll go take a shower first, so as not to dirty you."
Su Ying couldn't wait any longer and said impatiently, "Why wash? Just do it like this! I don't dislike you! It's more exciting this way!"
Xiong Mao, who was already feeling hot from being pulled by her, could no longer bear it when he heard this. He immediately picked her up and threw her onto the bed.
"It's just a child, don't worry, wife! We'll work hard today and get pregnant tomorrow!"
If you can’t get pregnant tomorrow, just try every day. Not to mention one child, you can have a whole bunch of children!
