Returning to hometown to farm: The apocalypse system arrived ten years earlier?

Chapter 274 Early Holiday

Mount Fuji is too cold. Although the hot spring was comfortable and Chiba Yukio and Akabane took turns giving me massages, it was still not as lively as home.

The weather in Sichuan Province had been clear for many days already, and there was almost no trace of the remaining snow, with signs of spring approaching.

After finishing the matter with Chiba Xuexi, Li Xiang no longer went there. Instead, he participated in the program auditions, practiced, drank tea and wine, played with cute pets, and did farm work and housework at home every day.

He replanted some more vegetables, especially lettuce, which can be grown all year round and has a short growing cycle. It is his favorite whether it is stir-fried, hot pot, or used to wrap sizzling meat during barbecue.

Having just stepped into the ninth level, Li Xiang needs to calm down and consolidate his foundation. Besides, the New Year is approaching, so he won’t run around anymore.

It is Chinese New Year and the whole world is celebrating. He no longer goes out to chat with tycoons from other countries. This can be considered a small benefit that the Chinese New Year brings to those people.

Li Xiang was busy with other things during the day, and practiced at night when it was quiet. His spiritual power grew stronger day by day, and he suddenly felt that he might have done something wrong before.

He had searched everywhere for special veins of earth before, and although he had gained a lot of benefits, including several extraordinary items of the Saint level, these special veins of earth could protect the safety of a certain area at the end of the world, and they also brought opportunities to the local people.

If he digs up all the special veins, the future of the earth will be worrying.

The earth belongs to all the people on earth, not just him.

Now that his strength and realm have improved, it is only natural that his pattern will also improve.

Fortunately, the veins that were dug before, except for Japan, are not too far from his home. The most he can do is to take on this cause and effect and provide more protection during the end of the world.

As for the country, he did not destroy it, but repaired it instead, reviving the three god-level earth spirits, which would be of great benefit to the future.

The program auditions are in full swing, with more and more people participating and more and more tourists joining in the fun. The business of several stores owned by Li Xiang is getting better and better. Tea and wine are almost sold out, and they have to be restocked urgently.

Yao Yao, Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui are busy with the program auditions and the store business, and they are completely overwhelmed.

However, although they are busy, they feel very happy. The feeling is completely different from when they worked outside before.

Of course, they did not neglect their practice, and would practice for two or three hours every night. They would sweat all over, and only after they were exhausted would they take a bath and sleep better.

Lei Jiaming leads the security guards to maintain order and busy themselves with various chores. He cannot stop every day and enjoys it.

A few days later, Jiang Caier suddenly came back from vacation. Li Xiang was very surprised and asked, "Why is it so early this year? Don't you have to make up for the missed classes?"

In previous years, it was not set off until one or two days before the Chinese New Year.

Jiang Caier whispered, "A student from the County No. 2 Middle School jumped off the building."

"Ah?" Li Xiang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?"

Jiang Caier whispered, "It might be because of too much study pressure. It was a boy in his third year of high school. He seemed to have a poor performance in the baseline test, was criticized by the teacher, and was scolded by his family when he got home. He was so upset that he jumped out of the window. The teacher told us not to talk about this matter and not to spread it around."

Li Xiang: "..." The end of the world hasn't even come yet, and it's already gone. Why is it so?

Jiang Caier felt quite ashamed. Last year, she had posted photos of herself doing exercises in the early morning of New Year's Day in order to beat her classmates. Now, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"I will never post that kind of circle of friends again."

Li Xiang patted her back gently and held her in his arms to comfort her. A year had passed. The classmate's suicide had nothing to do with her. Besides, she didn't know him, and they weren't even from the same school. It could only be said that the environment was not good, and the other party's ability to withstand pressure was too poor. In the end times, it would be difficult for such people to survive.

Jiang Caier said, "Brother, you have a great ability to withstand pressure. The end of the world is less than nine years away, and you are still preparing for the village party."

Li Xiang spread his hands: "So, this is the importance of entertainment. Only by alternating between tension and relaxation can we go further. Otherwise, when the end of the world comes, no one will be able to hold on and will jump off the building."

"Besides, this is not just entertainment. We have added many intangible cultural heritage elements to our village party. This is a kind of cultural inheritance. In the end times, culture is very important to people. It can enhance everyone's cohesion and boost morale. An optimistic and positive attitude and an indomitable will are the best weapons to fight the end times."

Jiang Caier's eyes sparkled. Li Xiang: "The County No. 2 Middle School seems to be my cousin's school. I'll ask her later."

Sure enough, in the afternoon, Li Xiang’s cousin Shen Wenqian and cousin Shen Zimo came over with their luggage and sat on their grandfather’s tricycle, intending to stay at Li Xiang’s house for a few days.

Li Xiang was naturally very welcoming. He took out good cigarettes, good wine and various delicious foods to entertain his grandfather and cousins, and then he personally cleaned the room for his cousins.

There are many empty rooms in his house, one for each person.

While eating snacks, Li Xiang asked about the student who jumped off the building. Shen Wen Qian couldn't help but sigh: "It was a senior of mine. I met him a few times before in the Student Union. He also said that I wrote the news release for the sports meet well and with literary talent. I didn't expect..." As she spoke, her eyes became red.

Well, Li Xiang comforted one again.

However, Li Xiang also learned about this incident from other channels. Li Xiang and several leaders of the county CPPCC went to the deceased's home with some gifts to express their condolences.

But this kind of thing has a bad influence, so we try to keep it secret and keep it low-key. Even if the deceased lives in the same community, many families are unaware of it.

After all, in the city, residents in the same community often don’t interact with each other much.

Someone looked out the window and saw an ambulance arrive in the middle of the night, and then a police car also came, but that was all, and there was no more news after that.

Soon no one talked about this matter anymore, but this winter vacation, all the junior and high schools in the county stopped offering make-up classes.

Shen Wenqian and Shen Zimo will naturally participate in the performance this year. They moved to Li Xiang's house specifically for rehearsal.

Li Xiang took out the ingredients he had saved up and cooked beef, deer, and various seafood. He treated his cousins to different dishes every day. The other girls also came to eat together. The food was better than that in a big hotel.

In a nutshell, he left all the work to his subordinates, and he just took care of the logistics and prepared some food and drinks.

Then the aunt and cousin also came back, the aunt brought her new husband and stepdaughter, and the cousin brought his girlfriend and her parents, and the whole family moved into Li Xiang's house.

There are plenty of rooms to accommodate everyone.

Li Xiang's grandparents also came to play for a few days. With so many people around, the house became lively and grandma was very happy.

Jiang Caier's 600 drones arrived. Li Xiang called Lei Xiaonan and others to help unpack, assemble and debug them one by one.

The second phase of the shelter was originally designed with areas such as drone hangars and robot dog hangars, which belonged to the arsenal type. It would not take much effort to urgently install an automatic charging platform at this time.

Although it is not a fine decoration, but just a cement rough shell, what does a drone need for fine decoration? Just keep it ventilated and dry.

Jiang Caier used a "quantum computer" to "hack" 600 drones, turning them all into her loyal wingmen. She alone could control all the drones with just a thought.

She can also multitask, operating the robot dog and some other equipment at the same time, including the extraordinary spiritual armor purple mirage armor, etc.

Li Xiang originally wanted to buy her some more robots, but he felt that the current robot technology was not mature enough, so he decided to wait and see. In a few years, they would surely be more advanced.

As night fell, in a passage of the second phase of the shelter, an electric gate opened automatically. "Whoosh", "whoosh", "whoosh", a dense swarm of drones flew out from it. Their first-class flying technology performed all kinds of special effects over Lijia Village, shocking the villagers from miles around.

Drone shows have also become a feature, and many tourists will wait until night and watch the drone show before going back.

Many media outlets in the county, and even many media outlets in the province, rushed to report on the event.

Xu Xuan and Zhang Youyou also came to join in the fun.

Lijia Village has become a model of new rural areas.

Six days later, on the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, at 6:30 p.m., in a festive atmosphere, the second Spring Festival Gala of Lijia Village officially kicked off.
