Outside the window, the golden afterglow was mixed with a shallow shade of darkness.

The house is still the same old house, and the courtyard is still the same courtyard, Li Changan is standing at the door of his house, with mixed feelings in his heart.

"Mom, my brother is back!"

Squeak –

The door of the house was opened, and a middle-aged woman appeared in Li Changan's sight, and she reprimanded while opening the door: "What are you arguing about, why did you get out of school so early today?" ”

Seeing the woman, a familiar feeling came to his heart, and Li Changan couldn't help but sigh.

"Familiar taste."

The scene in front of him coincided with the memory in his mind.

He was originally a little apprehensive, but as soon as his aunt Zhao Lijuan opened her mouth, she felt ...... It's like that's how everything should be.

The strangeness and unfamiliarity disappeared all at once.

"Mom, it's my brother back! Brother also subdued the spirit beast, and now he is a spirit master! Lu Chan pouted, aggrieved and happy at the same time.

"Chang'an?!"

Aunt Zhao Lijuan didn't seem to hear the second half of Lu Chan's words at all, and her eyes were full of surprise and distress when she looked at Li Changan.

"Auntie." Li Changan grinned, rubbed his nose and shouted with a smile.

"Meow~~"

"Squeak~~"

The two little ones said hello politely.

"It's ...... Spirit beasts? ”

Zhao Lijuan noticed the existence of Xiao Fan and Xiao Dou Ding at this time, and was a little frightened.

"Auntie, it's okay, they're all my partners, very well-behaved." Li Changan picked up the two little ones and comforted.

"Uh-oh." Zhao Lijuan came back to her senses at this time, and hurriedly rubbed her hands on her apron, "Didn't you come back and make a call in advance?" Why did he come back all of a sudden. ”

Saying that, get out of the way so that Lu Chan and Li Changan can go in.

"Your uncle hasn't come back yet, and he said that he would kill an old hen for you when you come back......"

Aunt Zhao Lijuan's mouth didn't stop, but her hand movements didn't stop.

Pick up the iced watermelon from the old refrigerator in the corner and cut the watermelon with a slightly rusty movement.

"Fortunately, you called that day, and I asked Lao Lu to prepare a watermelon, which will not break in the refrigerator."

Seeing the iced watermelon, Lu Cicada was the first to puff out its mouth and make an angry appearance.

"Mom, I didn't let you eat it yesterday, and as soon as my brother came back today, you were happy to take it out, you are obviously eccentric, hum!!"

After all, the action of taking the watermelon is not slow at all.

Li Changan couldn't help but laugh twice.

"It's my aunt who loves me the most."

"You guys."

Zhao Lijuan shook her head helplessly, but looking at the two living treasures of Lu Chan and Li Changan, she was actually very satisfied.

However, Li Changan didn't take a few bites, and suddenly felt two fiery glances.

It was extremely hot.

If his eyes could kill, he might already be on it.

Go back.

Only then did I notice the two little guys with tears on the corners of their mouths and eager eyes.

Click-click-

Break off the two cloves and hand them to Xiao Fan and Xiao Dou Ding respectively.

"Don't look at it, if you look at the ice watermelon, it's all turned into roasted watermelon."

"Meow~~"

took the watermelon, where does Xiao Fan care what Li Changan is talking about.

Take a bite.

The cold and crisp taste makes the little guy shiver directly, and after biting, the sweet juice splashes out directly.

Comfortable –

Xiaodouding is much more simply, and covering the head is dry.

The face is not as big as the watermelon skin, and the whole head is buried in it.

Looking at the cute and harmless appearance of these two little guys, Zhao Lijuan's hanging heart also let go of half of it.

"Brother, they're so cute." Lu Cicada was completely conquered by the cute appearance of Xiao Fan and Xiao Douding.

Full of eyes.

"Touch?"

"Is that okay?"

"Of course."

"It's so soft....."

Looking at her daughter and nephew, Zhao Lijuan's face was full of kindness.

"You wait here first, I'll cook for you."

...

...

When Zhao Lijuan's dinner was almost ready, Li Changan and his uncle Lu Yongguo also came back with a stall.

There is nothing else here in Ningyuan County, which is rich in mineral deposits.

Gu Li, whom the Public Security Bureau saw before, was the owner of the Helong Mine, one of the largest mines in Ningyuan County.

And Lu Yongguo worked in the mine with Li Changan and his father when he was young.

Later, there was a disaster in Ningyuan County, which led to an accident in the mine, and Li Changan's parents were buried under it forever.

Although Lu Yongguo survived, he also burned the root of the disease.

Fortunately, Lu Yongguo also has another skill to make a living, making tofu.

His tofu, even in the entire county, is famous.

"Lao Lu is back!"

Seeing Lu Yongguo, Li Changan, who was already completely accustomed to it, greeted him with a big grin.

Since he was a child, he has shouted "Lao Lu" to the big one.

Lu Yongguo has very few words, he belongs to an honest person in the eyes of others, and sometimes he quarrels with his aunt Zhao Lijuan, and he can't hold back a word for a long time.

Hearing Li Changan's shout, Lu Yongguo was stunned and said "um" softly.

He also noticed Xiao Fan and Xiao Douding beside Li Changan and Lu Chan, looked at them deeply, and did not speak.

"Dad, let me tell you, brother is now a spirit master! Moreover, Yangcheng University also hired him as a formal lecturer to teach classes, and his salary was many times higher. ”

Lu Chan didn't care about the sweat on Lu Yongguo's body, grabbed his arm, and proudly introduced Li Changan's "achievements".

In that way, she seemed to be more proud than she had done it herself.

Li Changan has been Lu Chan's "idol" since he was a child.

When I was a child, whether I was studying, fighting, or doing anything, I was the one who rushed to the front.

"Okay."

Lu Yongguo still didn't say anything, just answered.

Regarding Lu Yongguo's appearance of few words, Li Changan and Lu Chan have long been accustomed to it.

The two big men listened to Lu Cicada chirping like a summer cicada.

From the matter of Li Changan to the matter of Lu Yongguo, from the subduing of the spirit beast to the interesting story that happened when Lu Yongguo was making tofu this morning, etc.

This warmth, Li Changan and Lu Yongguo didn't want to interrupt.

It lasted until Zhao Lijuan finished cooking dinner and beckoned a few people to eat.

"It's for you two little ones."

After everyone sat down, Zhao Lijuan also brought two small bowls and put them in front of Xiao Fan and Xiao Douding.

"Meow?!"

Xiao Fan and Xiao Douding looked at each other, revealing a look of surprise.

And theirs?

Zhao Lijuan said with a smile:

"Since it is the spirit beast of Chang'an, then we will be ...... in the future It's a family. ”

Family?

Xiao Fan and Xiao Douding really couldn't react for a while.

But Li Changan understood Zhao Lijuan's intention to do this.

She was afraid that she would not be able to afford the cultivation of spirit beasts, and she was afraid that the two spirit beasts would leave him at that time, so she wanted to take advantage of the fact that she had a good relationship with them now.

In case something really happens in the future, I hope that even if they don't look at his Li Changan's face, they will also look at the face of her Zhao Lijuan's cooking, and make more concessions.

Zhao Lijuan's culture is not high, but she does things for the good of Li Changan.

Whether it is her or Lu Yongguo, they have treated him as their own son since childhood, as long as Lu Chan has it, he will definitely have it.

Even if Lu Chan doesn't have it, Li Changan may have it.

It's just that they don't say it.

A very warm meal.

Even though Xiao Fan and Xiao Dou Ding showed off most of the watermelon together, they still ate a lot of vegetables.

Prove to Zhao Lijuan with her actions that the dishes she makes are delicious.

He also gave a thumbs up.

provoked Zhao Lijuan's mouth from beginning to end.

This is home......

...

...

At five o'clock in the morning, the morning in Ningyuan County was just dawning.

The grove behind the bungalow of Li Chang'an's house.

"Little Fantasy, come here."

Whoosh –

A black cat jumped out of the forest, not slow, panting, and warmed up.

Adjust!

Li Changan put his palm on Xiao Fan's head, and then the value of Xiao Fan appeared in Li Changan's sight.

[Name]: Phantom Cat

[Endeavor]: 13

[Efficiency]: 69

(Phantom): 24

(Plagiarism): 21

(Dancing Claw): 24

Adjusted the efficiency value of "Claw" to 30 points, which is 5 points higher than B level proficiency.

"Go, Dancing Claw."

After doing this, Li Changan waved his hand.

Xiao Phantom didn't hesitate or doubt at all, turned his head and popped out his claws, slamming into the trunk of a nearby tree.

Bang!!!

The leaves shook like rain, and the trunk shattered and was mixed with a large number of pieces of wood, and three scratches with smooth facets were abruptly left on it.

After performing this "claw dance", Xiao Fan did not immediately return to Li Changan's side, but stood in place against his chin and thought for a while.

"Meow~~"

waited until he was almost finished, and then turned around and returned to Li Changan's side again.

"Done feeling it?"

"Meow." Phantom nodded.

"Okay, come again."

Whew-

Repeated training, Xiao Phantom tried again and again to feel the "dancing claw" state of higher proficiency, looking for feelings from it.

And the contemplation time after each performance of Xiao Fantasy is getting longer and longer.

Duration.

Inevitably, the phantom's claws still showed scars.

But this time.

Li Changan prepared the primary healing potion made from the "condensation seed" from the ancient mother-in-law in advance.

One "coagulation seed" made three bottles.

According to Granny Gu's description, as long as it does not hurt the bones, the medicine can be cured in a very short time.

A shock like Xiao Phantom's doesn't need so many at all.

He dipped it in a cotton swab and smeared it on Xiao Fan's wound.

"Woo-"

At this moment, Xiao Phantom screamed directly.

It was a sour voice.

I don't know if it's painful or refreshing.

"Okay, let's go again."

Li Changan wiped the sweat from his forehead, and estimated that with his current state, he couldn't adjust it a few times.

When he is almost at the limit, he can give Xiao Phantom the next training project.

And just as it was gauging its own state, it listened—

Bang!!

The overwhelmed tree snapped.

After the "snap" landed, Xiao Fantasy fell into a long period of contemplation.

"Huh?"

Li Changan stood up slowly, his eyes filled with anticipation.

After a while.

"Meow!!"

I'm enlightened! I'm enlightened!!

(Dancing Claw): 25

Li Changan's face was overjoyed.

B-level proficiency "Dance Claw"!

And without him adjusting the values.

This means that if there is a battle like the one with Fangtu Crab in the future, Xiao Phantom will break not only half a pincer, but at least a whole one.

To know.

For most wild spirit beasts, most of the skills belong to the D level of proficiency, the C level of proficiency is very rare, and the B level of proficiency is almost rare, and it is only possible to see it in the hands of some spirit beasts with rich cultivation experience in the hands of spirit master spirit beasts.

With the improvement of this proficiency, Xiao Fantasy's normal combat effectiveness has increased by at least more than thirty percent.

"Show me the paws."

Scold!

In the morning light, the sharp claws reflected the glittering cold.

Ding——

Li Changan flicked it lightly, making a crisp sound.

B-class skilled claws are already as hard as steel, and the sharpness is even more exaggerated.

It's no wonder that the "Dance Claw" that has crossed the level many times before will cause physical damage to Xiao Fantasy.

"How does the body feel?" Li Changan asked.

"Meow, woo......"

Xiao Phantom lowered his head and thought for a moment.

Feel...... The physical fitness seems to be a little stronger, and the spirituality in the body seems to be a little more, and the improvement is not much, but it does exist.

Li Changan nodded.

It seems that the proficiency of the spirit beast's skills has increased, and the spirit beast itself has also improved.

"Give."

Then he took out the small dried fish.

Xiao Phantom's eyes lit up instantly, and he took a "whoosh".

The crunch sound of "click, click, click" came from his mouth as Xiao Phantom narrowed his eyes.

"Little Beans."

I called the little bean and fed a pine nut.

Then let the two little ones go together for the next round of training.

His "soul" is almost depleted, and he needs to slow down.

After that, he didn't need to intervene in the training.

He had already arranged the training content.

After the two little guys were put into the next round of training, Li Changan took out the Anfen B32 document file.

Last night he watched part of it.

Today, I just took advantage of this gap to study and ponder again.
