Chapter 241 Damn it
January one.

As the first day of the new year, many people see this day as a day to clean up all the bad things from the previous year.

From this day on, they clean up their mood, forget the unhappiness of the previous year, and welcome the new year with a brand new mood.

The pages of Demacia's history books have also been turned, and the clean and brand new year 680 has come. There are too many things waiting for people to write on the blank pages.

When the sky was dim, the people in every household in the entire royal capital got up early, put on new clothes, brought gifts to visit relatives and friends, and sent New Year's blessings.

On the street, it was very lively early in the morning, and there was an endless stream of people, vehicles and horses.

It's just that at this moment, there is already a bit of excitement.

Lu Qi got up early today as well. Last night, Miss Jian Ji recited that today is the New Year, so she temporarily let him go.

After all, even if it was her, it was impossible for her to spend the night at someone else's house on the eve of the New Year's Eve.

At this moment, the fireplace downstairs has been lit. Lu Qi changed his clothes and came to the first floor.

Lacus and the others haven't come yet, and only Yurna and Katerina were seen in the living room.

"happy New Year."

Lu Qi said hello and sat on the sofa.

After a while, Urna brought over the brewed hot tea.

Katerina picked up the broom and was about to sweep the yard.

For her, things like Chinese New Year are basically the same as usual, and she still does what she has to do.

But when she came outside the courtyard, she saw a light snowfall outside, and the snowflakes fluttered and fell like petals, reflecting the early morning sky white.

Seeing this scene, she still couldn't help but startled.

I thought of leaving my hometown, coming to this foreign country, and living here for the last year.

I feel a little weird.

She never cared, and she didn't have much love for her children. After all, for an assassin, those things were meaningless.

But maybe it’s because I’ve been here for a while, and I’ve been infected by the emotions here.

At this moment, she was inexplicably homesick.

"It's snowing."

Beside him, Lu Qi's voice came.

He stopped under the eaves, looked at the snow falling outside, and expressed emotion: "Auspicious snow heralds a good year, a good sign, it seems that there will be a good harvest this year."

The snow that fell from the sky was not in a hurry. Although it was not small, it was slow, and it was considered a good snow scene.

After hearing this, Katerina asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"

"Because it's auspicious." Lu Qi smiled and said, "It's cold in winter, and the snow that falls is often not easy to melt. The snow covering the soil is relatively soft, and there is a lot of stagnant air hidden in it. It’s hot. It’s like covering the crops with a quilt. No matter how cold it is outside, the temperature below will not drop very low. Covered by winter snow, it is not easy to attract pests. Isn’t this a good sign? After this cold weather, once the snow melts, it can be used as fertilizer and absorbed by the crops in the land.”

As long as it wasn't like the blizzard in Hill City, a snowfall at this time would actually be a good thing.

Except for the cold weather, there seems to be nothing annoying about snow days.

After all, in a snowy day, you can still have a warm hot pot.

After listening to Lu Qi's words, Katerina looked at the falling snow outside and nodded in amazement.

This is indeed something she doesn't know, and she didn't expect such a saying.

"When it's snowing, go back and rest for a while, just in time to decorate the house."

Lu Qi took a few more glances at the snow scene, then yawned and went back to the living room.

Katerina nodded again, turned and followed.

Lu Qi sat on the sofa, watching Urna and Katerina set up the arrangement, and he had nothing to do, and said silently in his heart: "Sign in."

【Sign in successfully】

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Realm Improvement Card*1]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the intermediate skill improvement card*2]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a random deputy promotion card*1]

Three consecutive system sounds sounded, which can be regarded as a good start for the new year.

Lu Qi glanced at it, and found that the three rewards were pretty good. Without thinking too much, he directly used the realm promotion card.

【Use successfully】

Soon, a wave of energy emerged from Lu Qi's heart, and then spread to every corner of his body and limbs, like a warm current flowing slowly, dredging the meridians.

This feeling is quite comfortable, Lu Qi couldn't help closing his eyes.

After half a sound, these feelings disappeared.

Lu Qi suddenly felt a little more relaxed all over his body. He opened his hand and shook it, and his strength also increased a little.

The improvement of strength always makes people feel happy.

Lu Qi glanced at the second reward, and said silently in his heart: "System, use the skill upgrade card to upgrade the fortitude barrier."

[Intermediate skill card used successfully]

[Fortitude barrier level increased to LV7]

Resolute Bulwark is a high-level skill that Lucci learned from Taric. The armor improvement brought by this skill is still very impressive.

It is also the only high-level skill on Lu Qi that has not reached LV7.

After using it, Lu Qi looked at the last reward, and continued thinking: "Use a random sub-level upgrade card."

【Use successfully】

[Congratulations to the deputy host - cooking level has been upgraded to LV9 (back to basics)]

The system's words made Lu Qi's eyes light up.

The function of the random sub-level upgrade card is to randomly upgrade one of the sub-levels Lu Qi already owns.

And his culinary skills have been stuck in LV8 for a long time, this time even he didn't expect to be directly promoted to culinary skills.

Lu Qi now has a dislike for this deputy position at the beginning, and now he loves it more and more.

Because, when the cooking skills are good, it is himself who enjoys the food.

After all, people are iron and rice is steel, who can refuse delicious food.

Soon, Lu Qi seemed to have entered a state of epiphany. At this moment, he felt that his understanding of cooking skills was slowly improving.

Lu Qi's culinary skills are already very good now. The upgrade from LV8 to LV9 is not a huge improvement for him, because he has basically mastered everything that should be mastered, and he is extremely proficient.

So Lu Qi digested the information brought by this upgrade very quickly.

He always feels that something has changed, but nothing has changed. In short, there is an indescribable feeling.

After thinking about it, he got up directly and walked to the kitchen, preparing to test the ingredients of today's breakfast.

He wanted to see if the cooking skills at LV9 level would make the food shine.

As soon as she got up, she saw Lacus walking in. There was a thick scarf wrapped around her neck, which almost covered her mouth. Her delicate nose and ears were red from the cold, and a lot could be seen on her brilliant blond hair. Xuehua, with a happy and stretched eyebrows, is a pair of smart and happy eyes.

"Happy New Year."

As soon as they met, Lux immediately said hello crisply, and she could tell from her tone that she was in a very good mood.

"happy New Year."

Lu Qi smiled at her.

After asking, Lux ignored him, took off her scarf, ran to the heated fireplace, stretched out her little hand, and warmed her body.

"It's so warm." Soon, the warmth came, dispelling the coldness coming from the snowy day, and Lacus's little face was also a little more pleasant, with squinted eyes and hooked eyes. The corner of the mouth looks really cute.

Lu Qi continued to walk towards the kitchen and began to prepare today's breakfast.

During this period, Fiona, Sona, Kashina, Bobby, and Quinn also arrived one after another, and the voices of greeting each other came from the living room from time to time.

When there are more people, the atmosphere becomes more lively, and the atmosphere of the year is a little bit more.

After some arrangement by Urna and Katerina, the house looks a little more festive.

The girls were sitting in the living room, chatting, and the crisp and pleasant voices made people feel happy.

A burst of fragrance wafted from the kitchen, making all Yingying Yanyan look forward to today's breakfast.

After all, it was Chinese New Year, and Lu Qi did respond to their expectations.

Today's breakfast is very rich.

Butter bread, sausage bread, crystal bag, red bean fragrant rice porridge, scallion meat floss toast, buckwheat burritos, eight-treasure porridge, siu mai.
It can be said that more than a dozen kinds of rich breakfasts will fill up the dining table.

However, what was different today was that these breakfasts were all mysteriously covered.

"Is this a sense of New Year's ceremony for you?"

Lux sat down, looked at the covers, raised her head and asked Lu Qi a question.

Lu Qi heard the words and said, "Open it and have a look."

I don't know what this guy is doing, but Lux, who has been greedy for a long time, heard it, and immediately lifted the lid in front of her.

A strong fragrance came out, which immediately brightened her eyes, and then she looked at Lu Qi again: "And then? Are you ready to eat?"

Lu Qi touched his chin and thought for a while, then sighed in his heart: "Let's eat."

Sure enough, it won't shine, which made him waste his efforts to prepare so many covers.

When it comes to eating, Lux is naturally the first. She especially likes the crystal buns, because the crystal buns made by Lu Qi contain soup.

She picked one up carefully, and put it in the spoon. First, she poked a small hole in it, and a little crab roe juice and heat came out.

Then, she blew on it with a "huhu", and stuffed it into her mouth after confirming that it was not so hot.

Thick crab roe, bite down, and the rich crab roe juice splashes in the mouth, this feeling is not too happy.

Lu Qi also asked at this moment: "Is it delicious?"

"good to eat!"

After eating what was in her mouth, Lacus immediately gave a thumbs up.

Lu Qi then asked, "Does it feel different from usual?"

"In peacetime?"

After hearing this, Lux tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "It tastes better than usual."

As we all know, she is a foodie.

Therefore, I am very sensitive to the taste of food. After tasting it carefully, I found that the crystal bag this time seems to be more delicious than usual.

But after all, she is a little used to Lu Qi's cooking, the food was delicious before, but no matter how delicious it is now, it's just a certain feeling.

Not only her, but also several other girls.

So Lu Qi looked at Katerina and asked, "What do you think?"

Katerina also just ate a crystal bag, and just wanted to pick up another one. After hearing the question, she thought about it: "The previous ones were also delicious, but today's ones are especially delicious."

She only recently started to learn Lu Qi's cooking skills, and after a few days, she slowly accepted his amazing cooking skills.

If there were to be two good things about this guy, apart from that face, it would be his superb cooking skills.

When she was in Noxus, the family was also a big family. Although her father never let her slack in training, relatively, the nutrition and delicious food needed by the body were never missing.

It can be said that she grew up with high-end food since she was a child. Before that, she just thought that food is food. No matter how it is processed, the taste will not change much in the end.

As a result, she came to Demacia this time. After meeting this guy, she realized that her idea was wrong.

A truly powerful chef can turn ordinary ingredients into incomparably delicious ones.

But today, she tasted it carefully and found that the taste was better than the previous days.

In other words, it is delicious to die for.

But Katerina naturally wouldn't say that.

Hearing their conversation, Kashina said while eating: "It seems that today's food is indeed more delicious than previous ones."

Fiona, Bobby, and Sona all nodded in agreement.

So Lu Yu also started to move his chopsticks, ready to taste it himself.

After taking a bite and savoring it carefully, his eyes lit up.

As expected of me, what I made was so delicious.

After his own tasting, Lu Qi confirmed that the taste must be better. Although it won't shine or make your clothes explode when you eat it, it is definitely at the level of the current ceiling of Runeterra.

The improvement of cooking skills to LV9 is the first good thing this year, which means that Lu Qi may eat more delicious food in the future.

Today's breakfast, everyone ate very fast. More than a dozen kinds of rich breakfasts were wiped out under the attack of one person and one chopstick.

The disc operation is already the most basic normality on Lu Qi's dining table.

Had breakfast.

Lux lay contentedly on the sofa, stroking her slightly bulging belly, her face full of happiness.

Miss Crown Guard's fighting power is still strong this morning, it can be said that she is showing her off.

Lu Qi glanced outside from the window, the snow was still falling, the ground and the house had already been covered with a white blanket of snow, the world was covered with snow and peaceful scenery, just looking at it made people feel happy.

Today's body cultivation technique has not been practiced yet, so Lu Qi found an open place in the living room and started practicing slowly.

Fiona was sitting on the chair in front of the fireplace, watching him slowly and lazily practicing the movements, and suddenly pointed out: "The movement just now was wrong."

Hearing this, Lu Qi was stunned for a moment, and went back to re-practice the movement just now, and found that it was indeed wrong because of distraction.

He looked at Fiona subconsciously: "How do you know?"

The corners of Fiona's mouth curled up, she smiled without saying a word.

Lu Qi paused again, and asked tentatively, "Are you also practicing this body cultivation technique?"

"Of course." Fiona nodded with a smile, without denying it.

Lu Qi couldn't help asking: "Every day?"

Fiona confirmed, "Every day."

"hiss"

Lu Qi took a breath and suddenly realized something.

Back then, Lacus and the others did learn this health cultivation technique for a while out of curiosity, but no one insisted on it later.

Especially Fiona, she still has to practice sword every morning, so naturally she has no time to practice this slow-moving technique of self-cultivation.

At first Lu Qi thought it was like this.

However, he didn't expect that this little girl from Sword Fairy had already learned the technique of self-cultivation, and she was still practicing it every day! !
What Lu Qi valued most about the health cultivation technique was that it could increase durability and combat effectiveness.

In order to surpass Fiona in terms of combat power, he can say that he has never stopped for a day, and insists on it every day.

However, today I suddenly learned that Fiona is practicing every day.

In other words, while he was quietly increasing his combat power, Fiona was also increasing.

Now that Lu Qi finally realized it, he said why it had been so long, and his fighting power was still not as good as this little girl from Sword Fairy.

Damn, I didn't expect to miss it here.

"Come on, practice hard."

Fiona looked at Luqiton in place, the smile on her mouth didn't disappear, and she said something softly.

Lu Qi came back to his senses, looked at Chick Chick, his face paled a little.

Bad, if this continues, won't he always be played and applauded by this chick?
