Chapter 126
Su Ci looked at Xiao Langze, whose face was full of anticipation, and was speechless.
He took a deep breath and said, "What I want to teach you is how to use music to create an illusion and lead the audience into the illusion you created."
Little Langze said "oh" and seemed to be thinking about something.
Just when Su Ci thought he finally understood and could move on to the next stage of the explanation, the young man asked again: "So I can ride a big yellow cow in the illusion?"
Su Ci: ...
Why are you so obsessed with bull riding?
Looking at the young man's eager expression, Su Ci could only helplessly say, "If you can cultivate the art of sound illusion to that level, it's not impossible."
However, it is difficult to create something that has never been seen before, and even if it is created, it can be seen through at a glance.
The illusion he had created earlier was a fragment of his memory, so it felt very real, like entering the real world. Perhaps this was why little Langze had always been obsessed with riding a big yellow ox...
Seeing the young man's unreliable appearance, Su Ci finally decided to tempt him with benefits.
He said, "If you can master the art of sound illusion within a month, I will take you to ride a bull in the illusion."
This can be regarded as the final effort for the inheritance of sound cultivation.
"Wow!"
Little Langze didn't know what Su Ci was thinking. He couldn't help but shout. When he realized that he was shouting too loudly, he quickly covered his mouth and looked at Ran Lie cautiously.
Seeing that the red-haired boy was still sitting quietly with his eyes closed, he breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his voice and said, "Really?"
"Yeah." Su Ci nodded.
Little Langze's face flushed with excitement. He clenched his fists, eager to learn right away. But then he thought of something else and asked, "Can I bring Xingxing along? And Yoyo!"
"Okay." Su Ci nodded in agreement.
"Haha, that's great! Susu, you're so nice!" Little Langze said happily, "Then let's get started!"
Su Ci then continued, "In addition to creating illusions, music has many other wonderful uses..."
Peaceful sounds can soothe people's hearts, active sounds can promote the growth of all things, and solemn sounds can be used as weapons to take lives... Different sounds have different uses, depending on the individual's cultivation and attainments.
The art of sound illusion is probably one of the most practical techniques in sound cultivation, and it can play various different roles according to the intention of the sound cultivator.
Little Langze was so fascinated by what he heard that he gradually forgot about the big yellow ox and was simply attracted by the Taoism described in Su's poem.
In the end, he, like Rong Heng and the others, obtained a set of musical cultivation techniques, but the difference was that this set of techniques would only be effective when combined with musical instrument practice.
Around nine o'clock in the evening, Su Ci sent the wolf cub away.
Anyway, now that he has the base's intelligent computer to assist in teaching, he can be much more relaxed. Even if he teaches so many children with different inheritances at the same time, it is not too much of a burden.
During their teaching, A Yan saw that Su Ci was fine, so he continued to practice his divine texts and formations.
After learning the second divine text, his learning speed in formations accelerated again. Now, in addition to the water purification formation, he has also figured out the spirit gathering formation and the purification formation.
The nourishing effect of the magic flower honey also took effect on him. A Yan felt that his body was getting stronger and stronger, and the images that appeared in his mind from time to time became more and more frequent.
There is a figure in almost every one of those pictures.
That figure seemed to occupy a very important part of his life, so much so that every memory he could recall was about him.
But this is not enough, he wants to remember everything about Susu.
Thinking of this, A Yan held the pen in his little hand and began to study the third divine text.
After Su Ci sent the little wolf cub away, he stared at A Yan's hardworking back for a while, then he stood up and walked to the window, looking at the night outside through the window.
Because of the protective barrier in the east direction, the concentration of resentment in Base 24 has dropped a lot, and the sky has become clearer.
But this is not enough.
He stared at the night sky, his brows gradually furrowed.
The power of rules that protected the human base became much weaker, and only the last line of defense was left supporting it. When this power of rules completely dissipated, the red fog would come back again.
Su Ci felt a little strange.
As he taught the cubs the inheritance of civilization, planting and transforming the land, although the scope of influence currently only affected the 24th base, he could still clearly feel the power of the rules increasing.
If it was on the verge of collapse and disappearance before, and was almost imperceptible, then now, at least its presence is stronger, to the point where it will not disappear with a breath.
So, why is the power of the rules protecting the human base constantly weakening? Who set up this power of rules? Is this related?
Su Ci frowned, but unfortunately he had too little information at the moment and in the end he couldn't figure out the answer.
He shook his head and didn't dwell on it anymore.
It will always be clear later.
Early in the morning, A Yan woke up as usual.
When he left the bedroom and prepared to start a busy new day, he saw that the red-haired boy who was meditating in the living room had disappeared, and had turned into the Red Flame Tiger again.
The Red Flame Tiger was dozing on the ground. It seemed to have sensed something, so it opened its eyes and looked towards where A Yan was.
There was a clarity in its eyes that belonged to humanity. It was obvious that although the return of the power of red flame had once again turned Ran Lie into a complete beast, he was still himself and had not lost his mind.
"Good morning."
“Meow—”
Listening to the Red Flame Tiger's roar, A Yan tilted his head and looked at it, frowning and said, "You still can't speak?"
Upon hearing this, the Red Flame Tiger paused.
It hesitated for a moment, then spoke tentatively: "I..."
When the Red Flame Tiger heard that he had actually made a human voice, he was obviously stunned. Then, he opened his mouth again: "Can I speak now?"
A Yan curved his lips slightly, "Congratulations, it seems that you have already mastered some of the power of your bloodline."
Ran Lie was also very happy, and then...
"Meow——" Thank you.
Hearing that childish meow again, Ran Lie froze and frowned in annoyance.
Then, he heard A Yan comfortingly say, "It's okay, you just need more practice."
This voice is always so peaceful, like a gentle breeze brushing across your cheek, making people feel indescribably comfortable and kind when listening to it.
Ran Lie nodded. This time, before speaking, he took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, Brother Ayan."
"You're welcome."
So, A Yan continued to be busy, and Ran Lie squatted in place, listening to his movements, and finally couldn't help but follow him to help.
After tidying up the room, A Yan brought the Red Flame Tiger to the green space outside.
When they arrived, all the other cubs had already come here. They were scattered all over the green space, each of them with a happy smile on their face.
I saw the rope net on the outer wall of the building, and the vines wrapped around it were much denser than yesterday. The flowers that originally bloomed all over the rope net had turned into fruits of different sizes.
The metal frame built near the spiritual buds is also covered with vines, and the buds on these vines are about to bloom.
In addition to the Star Chain Fruit, the four Yingcui Beans and Yuxue plants have also entered their flowering period. The flowers of Yingcui Beans are a gradient of light purple, and each flower is only as big as a thumb. The flowers of Yuxue are a transparent white just like its name.
Little Lihua and Little Xuewei squatted under the metal rack, tilting their heads to look at the flowers, their faces filled with pure joy.
As for Xiao Langze and the others, they were more concerned about the fruits.
What surprised A Yan the most was that the two spiritual buds had grown taller and the two leaves had become much larger.
"Grow! Grow! Let's grow together!" The spoiled boy was still shouting slogans with great effort, and his voice was much clearer and more powerful than before.
He's just a little lazy bastard, and his snoring has even gotten louder.
"Brother Ayan!"
When the cubs noticed the arrival of A Yan and Ran Lie, they gathered around them.
"Fruits! So many fruits!"
"Brother Ayan, look! Is it edible?"
Surrounded by the cubs, A Yan came under the rope net. He looked at the fruits and said, "We have to wait a little longer. We should be able to pick them tomorrow."
"Yeah!"
Little Langze cheered happily, and then everyone looked at him. He realized something and quickly covered his mouth.
Susu is still sleeping, we can’t wake him up!
Next, A Yan took them to work in the open space.
Golden taro can be grown using only tubers, so A Yan cut off one third of it, divided it into twenty pieces, and planted them in two rows.
In this way, when this batch of golden taro matures, they will not have to worry about eating taro. They can even use taro as their staple food and eat it every meal!
After knowing that Susu had cultivated and loosened the land again, A Yan soaked all the seeds he had exchanged from Zhuang Shisong last night.
There were a total of seven types left, three of each, which meant a total of twenty-one new plants. These plants were all capable of enriching the nutrients in the soil. Under A Yan's command, they were buried in the ground and watered.
When Cen Liang and the others came over early in the morning, they saw the cubs watering and fertilizing the seedlings.
Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming had already witnessed how well-behaved the cubs were yesterday, but they were still shocked when they saw Su Ci actually making the cubs work.
Letting the cubs do the work...is that okay?
However, since the base's intelligent computer didn't intervene, it should be okay, right? And these kids seemed to be enjoying it, too.
Today, Zhuang Shisong and the others finally saw the red flame tiger that Cen Liang had mentioned. They would be lying if they said they were not afraid, but for the sake of the plants in the green land, they had to endure and not show it.
Ran Lie felt their gazes, but just glanced at them lightly and ignored them.
After practicing the Buddhist mind method, he no longer couldn't control his temper like before. Whenever he wanted to lose his temper, he would just recite the mantra in his mind a few times and he would gradually calm down.
and……
He looked at Xiao Xuewei standing in the corner, with some hesitation in his eyes, but in the end, he still walked over.
Xiao Xuewei was watering the Star Chain fruit trees. When she heard footsteps, one of her drooping ears perked up, and then her eyes turned towards the direction of the sound.
When the girl saw the little red flame tiger approaching, her eyes lit up and the ear that had been erected dropped down.
"Lielie." Xiao Xuewei smiled sweetly.
Although they knew that the Red Flame Tiger was actually a cub like them, he was even older than them. He was a cool-looking boy with red hair.
However, when she saw his completely beastly form, Xiao Xuewei couldn't help but feel happy.
Big cat...so cute!
Hearing her call him like that, Ran Lie couldn't help but stop, feeling somewhat helpless. During the time when he couldn't speak, everyone had already started calling him that...
"Yeah." The boy said with a stern face, "Thank you for the tea."
After drinking tea yesterday, he combined the Buddhist practice with some insights, and with Su Su's guidance, he gained a lot.
"Oh, you're welcome..."
Xiao Xuewei was stunned for a moment when she suddenly heard the Red Flame Tiger speak, but she quickly adapted to the situation and just felt...
The cute and childish appearance of the Red Flame Tiger, coupled with the boy's deliberately cool and arrogant voice, creates an unexpectedly cute contrast, making Xiao Xuewei feel even more adorable!
"Chirp!" The little tit also flew down from the branch and landed on the girl's shoulder.
It flapped its wings and jumped twice, and looked at the red flame tiger curiously with its small black bean-like eyes. Finally, it bravely flew to the little tiger's head.
Ran Lie felt the little bird that landed on his head. Its body was so light that he could hardly feel its weight.
After landing on his head, the little fat bird rubbed his fur with its beak, and finally curled up and nestled in his fur, burying its face in the fur and rubbing it.
"Jiujiu seems to like you very much."
Seeing that the Red Flame Tiger frowned but did not drive the little tit away, Xiao Xuewei said with a smile.
Ran Lie frowned even tighter. That was what he said, but what was with that envious look in her eyes?
Xiao Xuewei was indeed envious of Jiujiu. She also wanted to touch the furry head of the Red Flame Tiger... Unfortunately, she was too timid. As soon as Ran Lie looked over, she didn't dare to reach out.
"That tea... do you still have any left?" Ran Lie asked hesitantly at this time.
"Yes, yes." Xiao Xuewei nodded, "Do you want it? I'll get it for you in my room."
Ran Lie really wanted to continue drinking the tea. He felt that drinking it a few more times would help him cultivate his Buddhist mindset, but...
"Is there anything you need?" Ran Lie asked.
He didn't want to owe anyone anything, so if Xiao Xuewei needed something, he would get it for her and then exchange it with her.
However, Xiao Xuewei shook her head.
She already had much more than the other cubs. Besides wanting to see her wife again, she also wanted...
She looked at the Scarlet Flame Tiger's ears eagerly and whispered, "If I tell you, I'm afraid you'll be angry..."
Hearing this, Ran Lie whispered, "No, tell me."
He is now able to control his temper well and doesn't get angry easily.
Xiao Xuewei looked at him for a few times, but in the end she didn't have the courage to say it out loud. She shook her head and said, "Forget it. Wait here for a moment. I'll go back to my room to get some tea."
As he said that, he put down the spray bottle in his hand and turned to walk towards the nursery building.
The little fat bird nestled on the red flame tiger's head saw her leave, so it had to flap its wings and reluctantly leave the red flame tiger's furry head.
Seeing them leave, Ran Lie did not stay where he was, but followed them.
He decided to ask clearly, he couldn't just ask for her things casually.
Watching the Red Flame Tiger leave, Zhuang Shisong and the others secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and their tense spirits also relaxed.
"By the way, where's Keeper Su?"
After they arrived, they didn't see the keeper. They thought he had just left for a while, and then they heard the cubs all making a gesture to them to be quiet.
"Susu is sleeping, don't talk loudly, it will wake him up."
Xiaolu Jiao said this seriously, and the other cubs nodded in agreement.
Cen Liang/Zhuang Shisong/Wei Ming: …
Su Ci was sleeping, and then he left all the work in the green area to the cubs? Why did this sound so irresponsible?
However, before they could condemn it, the cubs had already finished the work.
They put down their tools and left together to return to the nursery building, with a special warning as they left not to make any noise.
If they had asked at this time, they would have known that the cubs returned to the building to go to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the keepers.
Unfortunately, when Cen Liang and the others learned that Su Ci had actually given the job to the cubs, they became anxious and quickly took out various instruments to check the status of the plants in the green space.
Then I discovered that the plants were actually doing well. Both the amount of watering and fertilizing was within a very reasonable range.
Even the seedlings that looked like they had just been planted had no problems.
This made them unable to help but reveal an expression of doubt about life.
Could it be that planting was such a simple task? Even these cubs, only a few years old, could do it? Unfortunately, no one could answer their question.
When Su Ci woke up and prepared to have breakfast, he saw the Red Flame Tiger squatting in the corner with a small jar in front of it.
Although Ran Lie didn't say anything, he could feel that this kid was in a bad mood.
Probably... it was about the same time as when he came to him and offered to touch his tail in exchange for the martial arts technique. His whole mood was a bit explosive.
Su Ci yawned, but ignored him and lazily walked into the bathroom to wash up. When he came out, there was a bowl of water next to Chi Yanhu, with tea leaves soaked in it.
The emotional fluctuations emanating from him have also eased a lot.
This kid has indeed made a lot of progress. At least he can control his emotions and no longer lose control after an outburst like last time.
Su Ci picked up the nectar water that A Yan had brewed, drank it, and asked, "Where did the tea come from?"
It would have been better if he hadn't asked. After he asked, the little tiger, who had calmed down a lot, became a little angry again. He didn't say anything and lowered his head to lick the tea.
Although the little tiger was very frugal with words, Su Ci could not guess from his behavior that his mood change must be related to tea.
Su Ci looked at A Yan, who was obviously very clear about the origin of the can of tea. He said, "It's Xue Wei's."
When it heard the name, the Red Flame Tiger's body stiffened noticeably, and then it held its breath and continued to lick the tea.
Su Ci released his spiritual consciousness and took a quick look at the situation in the nursery.
The cubs were all playing in the green space, and Xiao Xuewei was there too. She was staying with Xiao Lihua, watching her draw and laughing foolishly.
Not only was he unharmed, but his face was also rosy, and he looked rosy and very healthy.
The bright and innocent smile in her eyes was completely different from the numbness and sadness the little girl had on the night she first arrived at the nursery. She looked like two completely different people.
Su Ci couldn't help but retract his spiritual consciousness and looked at the Red Flame Tiger that was lying on the ground with its eyes closed.
It seems that nothing happened to Xiao Xuewei. This situation looks like... the little tiger was bullied.
This is really... interesting.
Su Ci watched the show with a look on his face, and did not ask Ran Lie what exactly happened. He preferred to let the cubs solve the conflicts among themselves.
After having a full meal, he took A Yan and Ran Lie to the teleportation array again.
They first came to the river bank. The water level in the river rose instead of falling. More groundwater gushed out, bringing more fish and aquatic plants.
In addition to moss, aquatic plants can already be seen growing.
Among the three perennial plants that Su Ci chose to soak this time, one is an aquatic plant called water lotus. Judging from the information, it is similar to the lotus root in Su Ci's memory.
However, this water lotus has strong adaptability and can survive without being planted in a lotus pond with almost stagnant water flow. The lotus root yield is also very high.
Under the stimulation of the spiritual water, the seeds of the water lotus have sprouted and can be transplanted into the river.
Su Ci deliberately chose a corner far away from the cracks in the underground river, and dug up the silt left after the mud monsters were purified, covering the entire corner. Then he controlled a few sprouted lotus seeds and buried them in the silt.
Then he set up a spiritual shield to prevent the lotus seeds from being eaten by fish in the river before they fully grew.
While he was planting the water lilies, Ayan also watered the Selaginella and moss along the river bank.
After several days of water diversion and rain, the land along the river bank has become very moist. Coupled with the rich spiritual energy, it is very suitable for plant growth.
The Selaginella and the small patch of moss are growing very well. From a distance, you can already see spots of green appearing on the river bank.
Su Ci asked A Yan to find a suitable place and plant the soaked bamboo rice.
Generally speaking, bamboo is rarely planted using seeds, because it takes more than ten years or even hundreds of years for bamboo to bloom and bear seeds, and it also takes decades for the seeds to grow thicker after being planted.
But this is nothing to Su Ci. What's more, with the stimulation of rich spiritual energy, these ordinary bamboos will grow much faster.
Moreover, bamboo is a plant with extremely strong reproductive ability. Once a single bamboo plant grows, it will soon grow into a large area. This is a very suitable advantage for Su Ci.
Of course, there is another point. Bamboo shoots are also a very delicious delicacy. Once this bamboo forest is formed, there will be bamboo shoots to eat.
Feeling the vitality on the river bank, Su Ci nodded with satisfaction. He was about to take the Red Flame Tiger to the Magic Flower Valley to continue burning the spiders, but at this moment, he suddenly stopped.
He looked towards the opposite bank of the river and saw a figure riding a flying saucer, flying towards him from the direction of the base, and finally landing on the opposite bank of the river.
At the same time, Su Ci's communicator rang.
He answered the call, and Yan Ping's voice sounded somewhat difficult: "Keeper Su..."
