Chapter 94 The action is over, Christmas is here (please subscribe, please vote)
In the dead of night, Li Xiang breathed in the cold air and came to the backyard. He stretched his body, practiced breathing techniques, and performed specific movements. Each move was graceful, elegant, dignified, soothing, or lightning-fast, and all had a special rhythm, as if a mysterious piece of music was being played.
Erhuang came out of the dog shed, followed his owner around, wagging his tail. He was very smart and knew that he shouldn't bark for no reason in the middle of the night, otherwise he would disturb his grandmother's sleep. When he was excited, he couldn't help but whimper softly.
Spiritual power flowed in Li Xiang's body, and a clear light diffused between his flesh and blood. This clear light became more and more intense, as if the whole person was covered by a layer of light, like a banished immortal.
Suddenly, there was a flash of black light, and the clear light disappeared, replaced by a peculiarly shaped black armor, shining brightly, full of metallic luster, solid and tough, mighty and domineering, covering his entire body, revealing only a pair of deep and restrained eyes.
Er Huang was startled: "Woof~"
Li Xiang immediately waved his hand to stop him: "It's me, stop shouting!"
With a thought, the mask disappeared, revealing his true face.
Seeing his master, Er Huang felt relieved: "Woo woo woo woo~"
It seemed to be complaining to its owner, saying that the dog was really scared just now!
Just now, the Black Mountain Black Armor suddenly appeared, not only wrapping Li Xiang's whole body, but even preventing his breath from leaking out. It can be said that he was protected tightly. In the eyes of the dog, the master suddenly disappeared, and a "monster" appeared at the same time.
Li Xiang waved his hand and asked it to go away, as he was going to make a big move. So the dog immediately ran a few meters away, hid on a dog mat in the corridor, and lay down to watch.
Li Xiang tried out a set of vigorous physical skills, and also practiced a set of small and flexible grappling techniques. His movements were very smooth and not affected by anything.
I have to say that the magic of this set of Black Mountain Black Armor is that it fits tightly on the body like liquid, and is "very elastic". It is as comfortable to wear as not to wear it, without any constraints. But it does not feel loose at all, it is always tight, and the appearance is very solid and strong, protecting oneself firmly.
Some girls like to wear liquid underwear because it is seamless and very comfortable. Li Xiang's Black Mountain Armor looks mighty and domineering on the outside, but in fact it fits the body very smoothly. It is tens of thousands of times more advanced than liquid underwear and they are not the creation of the same civilization at all.
The Black Mountain Mysterious Armor is a tenth-tier extraordinary armor. It can naturally absorb the vortex of spiritual energy within the body. When it is needed, it will appear on the body surface with a thought. Although it has many parts, it does not require any effort to wear.
Li Xiang's mind moved again, and the armor was removed and dropped to the ground. He took out his own beam scale and weighed it, and it was a full 360 kilograms, but it was very light when worn on his body.
His spiritual power penetrated into the armor, searching carefully, and then he sensed ten runes deep in the armor, which he estimated were the effects of these runes.
"If I had such a set of extraordinary spiritual armor in my previous life, I wouldn't be hurt even if that disgusting teammate backstabbed me."
But the past has already happened. Fortunately, he was reborn and could take revenge in this life! He didn't know where that person was now. He searched online and found too many people with the same name. Some of them had photos, but they were not that person at all.
Li Xiang put away the Black Mountain Mysterious Armor and stored it in the vortex of spiritual power in the mysterious acupoint in his right calf. This way, he could use spiritual power to nourish it day and night, and it would be easier to use when using it.
In the following days, the "Xiao Li Yidao" hunting team continued to go out frequently. Gradually, they caught almost all the wild boars within a radius of 20 kilometers. If they wanted to catch more, they would have to go further.
On December 22, three days before Christmas, the weather finally cleared up. The weather forecast showed that "high temperatures" were approaching and there would be no rain or snow, or even cloudy days, for most of the next half month.
This high temperature is really high. In many places, the maximum daytime temperature can rise to over 20 degrees Celsius within a week. In some coastal provinces, it can even soar to over 30 degrees Celsius.
This is unimaginable in the middle of winter, when the temperature has just dropped below minus ten degrees Celsius.
People throughout the South, in many provinces, cheered.
Some girls were extremely happy as they could finally take off their thick down jackets and put on beautiful little skirts.
Those provinces that lack large snow shovel equipment finally breathed a sigh of relief. Well, the time to rely on God to melt the snow has finally come! It's time to let you northerners see what it means to truly "rely on God to melt the snow"! Just as the bad weather ended, the Sichuan Provincial Forestry and Grassland Bureau also announced a good news: this special operation to prevent and control wild boars was a complete success. The original plan to kill 10,000 wild boars in about three months only took about 20 days, and the goal was achieved ahead of schedule.
The official announcement stated that the "Everyone Hunting Wild Boars" operation has officially ended.
Many hunting teams are beating their chests and beating their feet. They haven't even had enough fun yet, and it's over already? Some teams are complaining online that they have just made back their investment after buying so much equipment and paying their employees' salaries. It's like they worked in vain.
One team complained that you guys at least made back your investment, but we just lost money. We lost a lot!
"How can you lose so much money?" someone was puzzled.
The other party member broke the news: "Several imported hunting dogs died, each costing tens of thousands of yuan. There were also injuries, medical expenses, lost wages... all these expenses add up to a huge amount!"
They were laughed at by many people. Well, although it was wrong to laugh at them, no one could help it, because they were the most miserable hunting team.
The strongest team, the luckiest team, Li Xiang's "Xiao Li Yidao" hunting team, was envied by all participants.
Because, the data on the official website shows that they are ranked first, with a total "delivery" of 13,798 kilograms. Except for a small number of dead wild boars, more than 95% were alive and uninjured.
When the reporter interviewed the Provincial Forestry and Grassland Bureau, the staff revealed that the wild boars handed over by Li Xiang and his team were of very good quality and were deeply loved by some zoos and scientific research institutions.
The official subsidy Li Xiang and his team received this time was as high as 256,430 yuan. They were the well-deserved champions, leaving the second place behind by a full 4,039 kilograms. If the second place knew that Li Xiang and his team had also sold that super big pig king, and that Li Xiang had also secretly sold more than 12,000 kilograms to Boss Huang, he would probably be shocked.
Although many teams have sold wild boar meat privately, even if they do not sell it privately and have the government recycle it all, they are still no match for Li Xiang.
Including the 10,000 yuan bonus and the 100,000 yuan for the super-large wild boar king sold to Boss Huang, Li Xiang's team finally earned 366,430 yuan.
However, the official subsidy will not arrive until the 28th, so you will have to wait for a few days.
But this kind of large project is funded by the central government, and the government is very quick to give money, so no one is worried at all.
The special prize not only comes with a prize of 10,000 yuan, but also a certificate of honor issued by the Provincial Forestry and Grassland Bureau. The County Forestry and Grassland Bureau has already notified them and they will go to claim it in a few days. They will also have to take a group photo for publicity purposes.
Jiang Jianguo and Li Yucheng have already calculated privately that they can probably get more than 73,000 yuan each. Getting so much money at one time can be said to be a huge income. They have only been busy for about 20 days, which means 3,400 to 3,500 yuan a day!
Jiang Jianguo and Li Yucheng had never made such easy money before. The two families were overjoyed these days, and the neighbors were envious, saying that they could have a good New Year this year! Especially the Jiang family, Jiang Caier had money to go to college, so they didn't have to worry. Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang seemed to be several years younger.
As for Li Xiang's family, they can have a better New Year. There is no comparison. Some people joked that Li Xiang's family is already the richest in Lijia Village, even more than Li Jintang, the son of the contractor.
Li Jintang's son is doing very well. He bought a car and a house in the provincial capital. He often posts photos of construction sites of various large projects on his WeChat Moments. He also "takes care of" many young people in the village and takes them to work on the construction sites. However, many people have called to complain, saying that their wages have been in arrears for several months and they don't know if they will get any by the end of the year. They may not get any money this year.
The people in the village were very sad. Fortunately, Xiangya had helped sell some local specialties and distributed wild boar meat to everyone, otherwise this year would have been difficult.
The weather has cleared up and high school is about to start.
The school teachers informed that students would arrive at school in the afternoon of the 24th and officially start school on the 25th. High school students would have more than one day to rest at home and there would be no more holidays after that. They would even have to make up classes at school on New Year's Day and would not be able to go home until the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month.
Jiang Caier felt a little depressed and ran to Li Xiang to complain that she had to go to school again.
Li Xiang comforted her: "You have rested enough these days."
Jiang Caier pouted: "No way, we have online classes every day, okay."
“But taking online classes is relatively easy.”
"Well, I really hope high school ends soon."
"It would be great if I could get into university. The academic pressure in university would be much lighter. There are only a few classes a day, and the rest of the time is free to do as you wish."
In fact, Li Xiang could understand it. Everyone has been through high school. They get up before six in the morning and go to bed after eleven at night. Eating is like fighting a war. They have to rush to take a shower and do laundry. With only a few days off in a month, even those who love studying will feel tired.
In this regard, Li Xiang could only secretly give Jiang Caier some medicine, well, a magical medicine.
After taking Li Xiang's elixir, Jiang Caier's physique is absolutely strong, her mind is clear, and she is not afraid of any competition. She is guaranteed to crush those classmates.
Jiang Caier's talent was really good. Although she didn't spend too much time practicing seriously, Li Xiang could already feel that the spiritual power in her body was becoming more and more abundant, and her whole body exuded a faint fragrance that had never been there before.
This is the effect of spiritual power to quench the body and detoxify. Jiang Caier's skin is better than before, more tender and elastic, crystal clear, and rosy. Her figure is more graceful.
Although Li Xiang planned to make spiritual wine, it was obviously not suitable for girls to drink, so he used the old method. While boiling tea around the stove, he stewed a cup of spiritual medicine soup for her. This time, he picked several second-level berries with very good taste, such as Xuanbing Wushu, Yinxin Jingou Pear, Bamboo Bird's Nest, etc. The stew was fragrant and mouth-watering.
As for Grandma and Third Aunt, they ate first-grade spiritual herbs because they were old and had not practiced breathing techniques, so they could not eat herbs of too high a grade. By then, the medicinal power would accumulate and they would not be able to refine it, which would be harmful.
Watching Jiang Caier finish the elixir soup and continue to make tea around the stove, enjoying the winter fire, warm sun, and various delicacies, Li Xiang went up the mountain with a Gaomi knife, a shoulder pole and a rope. He cut a lot of pine branches and came back to make smoked meat.
In addition, he also cut down an entire pine tree more than three meters tall and planted it in the yard.
"Brother, why are you planting pine trees suddenly?" Jiang Caier blinked, as if she thought of something but was not sure.
Who would plant a pine tree like this? It has no roots. Could it be that...
Li Xiang laughed: "Haha, you guessed it right! Christmas is coming soon, so I want to create some atmosphere for you before you go to school."
"Wow, that's great!" Jiang Caier cheered, her eyes narrowed into crescents, thinking that my brother really dotes on me. I haven't celebrated Christmas properly yet.
Li Xiang planted the Christmas tree and, together with Jiang Caier, hung many decorations and small gifts on it, but it was not enough. He planned to go to the county town early tomorrow morning to purchase some supplies, such as some exquisite gift boxes, cards, small bells, ribbons, colored lights, stockings, candies, chocolates, apples and the like.
Although it is a foreign festival, it is also nice to bring Jiang Caier and the children in the village to have some fun and experience a different culture.
In college, Christmas is a very important holiday and a favorite of many couples.
Then he used to work in a big city, and the Christmas atmosphere in big cities is also quite strong, mainly because businesses take this opportunity to hold big sales.
