My cultivation is too warm

Xu Mo felt that since Nuan Nuan and Wang Jing came to the research institute, time seemed to pass faster as the atmosphere improved.

In a blink of an eye, five years have passed.

Over the past five years, the research institute itself has not changed much; it's still the same people, still doing research on problems that seem to have no end in sight.

However, in the past five years, several more buildings have sprung up next to the research institute.

These buildings are newly built dormitories for the families of researchers in the school and research institute.

The research that Xu Mo and his team are doing now is of unknown duration. Many of the researchers have families; some were already married and established in their careers, while others started their families in recent years.

This includes the 3,650 disciples of Wuyou Peak, most of whom are already married and have children.

Within the entire research institute, those who are not yet married make up less than 10% of the total population.

Having a family and living separately will naturally affect everyone's well-being. If they have to go home every day, and many people live far away, the commute will be even more troublesome.

After learning about this situation, Xu Mo simply waved his hand and built several luxurious dormitory buildings next to the research institute. They were fully equipped with supermarkets, sports venues, cinemas and other recreational facilities.

Furthermore, Xu Mo also transferred Mo Fusheng over and built a hospital for him to oversee. He then arranged for Ou Fenjin and Xu Yaoyao to come over and built an incredibly luxurious canteen for them to cook for the researchers and their families in the research institute.

Of course, Ou Fenjin is now human and no longer has that endless power. He and Xu Yaoyao alone are definitely not enough to feed the tens of thousands of researchers and their families. Therefore, Xu Mo specifically emphasized that they recruit a team of three thousand chefs to be responsible for training them.

In short, we must do everything possible to ensure the physical and mental health of our researchers.

Neither Ou Fenjin nor Xu Yaoyao refused to train a team of chefs. They both knew that in this degenerate age, they would soon grow old, and their culinary skills would have no successors. As time went by, all traces of their existence would disappear completely with the passage of time.

Therefore, passing down culinary skills and allowing them to flourish in the ancient world is the best way to ensure their continuation and let future generations know that they once existed.

It can be said that after learning about the plan to train a team of chefs, Ou Fenjin and Xu Yaoyao were even more enthusiastic than Xu Mo and the others.

After all the arrangements for the researchers' families and daily lives were made, as time went by, the researchers' children were basically born or grew up. Throughout the researchers' community, groups of children could often be seen laughing and playing.

This naturally included Xu Mo's own child, Xu Qingli. With so many children in this neighborhood, Qingli was very happy. She made many friends and had a great time playing with her group of friends every day.

As the children grow up, new problems arise.

In another year or two, the oldest group of children will be almost old enough to go to school. There are no schools nearby, and they can't possibly send their children all the way to the city, can they? If that's the case, what's the point of Xu Mojian's residential community?
So Xu Mo once again made a grand gesture and built another school, allowing the researchers' children to attend school there.

Moreover, unlike dormitories, Xu Mo had the school built directly within the research institute. There was no need to recruit teachers from outside, because the research institute itself housed the most outstanding people in the Canggu World.

Then the researchers can take turns teaching the children. When the children grow up and graduate, they may be able to inherit everyone's work and devote themselves to research together.

Generation after generation, sons and grandsons, endlessly, until one day it is all finished.

This reminded Xu Mo of the plan he devised when he first joined the Tianxuan Sect, also known as the Yu Gong Plan. He envisioned himself constantly creating aliases to eventually become the Supreme Ancestor of the Tianxuan Sect. However, due to the excessive kindness of the sect members, this meticulously planned scheme was aborted. More importantly, he was already the Supreme Ancestor of the Tianxuan Sect, and a first-generation ancestor just like the Tianxuan Ancestor.

However, fate played a cruel trick on them. The original Yu Gong plan failed to materialize, but now they are embarking on a real Yu Gong plan. The research they are currently conducting cannot be accomplished by the efforts of just one generation. It can only be passed down from generation to generation, like the Yu Gong moving mountains, and only after countless generations of effort can they hope to succeed.

So, after going around in circles, we've returned to where we started. It's quite complicated.

And so, soon after the school was built, it welcomed its first batch of students.

This group of students also includes Xu Mo's child, Xu Qingli.

After the students enrolled, a schedule was arranged for the researchers, who took turns teaching the children each day according to the schedule.

Everyone is quite enthusiastic about teaching children. After all, in the midst of tedious research, it's a good opportunity to take a break, relax, and cultivate one's mind.

The researchers could only say that Xu Mo's arrangement for everyone to take turns teaching the children was absolutely fantastic!

As expected of the Worry-Free Spirit Farmer, the ancestor of all spirits in the new era, he actually came up with such a great idea. Well done, he deserves a good review.

However, after the school started classes, everyone was not without their worries. As classes resumed, the time that Nuannuan and Wangjing, the pistachio mascots of the research institute and the most important members of the institute, spent at the institute decreased dramatically.

After school started, looking at the children who were as beautiful as flowers, Nuannuan's maternal instincts and natural instincts instantly drove her to pour her love and care onto the children.

Wangjing is similar; it was originally a very loving dog, and now, after spending five years with Nuannuan, kindness and love have been deeply ingrained in its soul.

It knew that the children in the school were the children of the researchers. Since they were the children of the researchers, Wangjing felt it was its natural responsibility and obligation to help these researchers who were with them day and night to take good care of their children and let them grow up healthy and happy so that the researchers would not be distracted.

What's more, his little owner also attends school.

As the master's child grew up, Wangjing felt genuine happiness and joy.

Over the years, Wang Jing has gradually begun to feel that his body is getting worse and worse. Although he is still strong, he no longer has that feeling of having inexhaustible energy.

Whenever it mobilizes all its strength, it feels strained and powerless after a certain point. No matter how much it pushes itself, it can no longer mobilize any more power. Instead, it feels as if there is a rope pulling it backward, making it extremely uncomfortable and painful when it tries to exert its strength.

Wangjing realized that it was getting old. But it wasn't afraid, because in its eyes, every day it lived was a bonus. After it found its master, it should have been nearing the end of its life. Although its master said it had just fainted from hunger, it knew that it should have died then, and its master had saved it.

In fact, even if Wangjing had died five years ago after finding its master, it would have been content. It had persisted in searching for more than ten years and finally met its master and his family. Knowing that its master was doing well was enough to fill its heart with happiness. What more could it ask for?

Therefore, having lived so long and been able to accompany my owner for so long, even if I were to grow old tomorrow, I would be growing old in happiness.

However, now that it has seen its little master go to school, it has become even more greedy. It wants to live for many more years to see its little master grow up and take care of himself. Then the little master will be able to accompany the little master, and the little master will be able to leave in peace.

So please let me live a few more years.

Wang Jing was "greedy" in his heart. He really felt that he was greedy. He should have died long ago, but he was still not satisfied.

I'm such a greedy dog!

While Wangjing and Nuannuan poured their love into the children at the school, the researchers at the institute felt distressed.

You should know that even when everyone in the research institute gathers together for meetings, Nuannuan and Wangjing will be there. And their favorite thing is to let Nuannuan and Wangjing judge who is right and who is wrong when the meeting falls into an argument.

Over the years, they had long been accustomed to Nuannuan and Wangjing's daily patrols, and also to betting with their colleagues on whether Nuannuan or Wangjing would come today, and who would be the lucky one to be favored by both Nuannuan and Wangjing at the same time.

Although Nuannuan and Wangjing haven't abandoned them, they can only visit once or twice a week now, and the number of lucky people who can receive both Nuannuan and Wangjing's favor at the same time has also decreased.

Now, everyone's daily anticipation has changed from who will come to whether they will come at all. They never imagined that one day they would be competing with their own children for attention.

However, compared to the researchers in the research institute, the children in the school are much happier. Every day when they go to school, Nuannuan and Wangjing patrol the school. If any children have a fight or quarrel, they will definitely rush to the scene as soon as possible to make them make up.

This leads to situations where people sometimes deliberately argue with those around them in order to get the animals to come to them.

Nuannuan and Wangjing are very clever. After arriving at the scene, they immediately realized that the other party was doing it on purpose. At this time, they would show a very vivid helpless expression on their faces, play with everyone for a while, and then signal to them not to do it again before leaving.

Of course, the children are actually very sensible. They will only deliberately quarrel when they really miss Nuannuan and Wangjing. Otherwise, they just let things happen naturally.

The main thing is that it feels really good to be pampered by Nuannuan and Wangjing, especially when teachers or parents want to criticize them, it feels really reassuring when Nuannuan and Wangjing protect them.

Nuannuan and Wangjing care a lot about classroom discipline. When they patrol the classroom, if they see students who are daydreaming, they will go directly to them and remind them to study hard and not waste their time.

With Nuannuan and Wangjing in the classroom, the learning atmosphere and discipline are bound to be the best, because everyone knows that they are being supervised and cannot let them down.

There is never a need for teachers to conduct exams at school, because Nuannuan and Wangjing will supervise the exams, and the students will not do anything that will make them look down on them.

Because of Nuannuan and Wangjing's behavior, the students gradually started calling them "Principal Nuannuan" and "Director Wangjing".

The researchers at the institute have gradually begun to accept the fact that Nuannuan and Wangjing are spending their time with the students at the school.

After all, the students at the school are their children, and they can't really compete with their own children for attention.

Let Nuannuan and Wangjing accompany the children and give them a happy and fulfilling childhood. That would be a good thing for them.

And so, both the research institute and the school have become accustomed to the presence of Nuannuan and Wangjing.

With Nuannuan and Wangjing by their side, the first batch of children spent six years of primary school and then moved on to junior high school.

To celebrate the children's advancement to higher grades, Nuannuan and Wangjing specially learned some talent performances from television and performed them at the school's advancement ceremony.

On the day of the college entrance examination, the researchers and children were all there. Everyone watched Nuannuan and Wangjing's hard work and earnest performance, and everyone was very happy.

However, just when everyone was laughing the most, Wangjing made a mistake while performing the fire hoop jump, which burned a part of its hind leg. This made everyone realize that, without realizing it, Nuannuan and Wangjing had already gotten old.

Yes, if you think about it carefully, the time it takes for Nuannuan and Wangjing to patrol is now much slower than at the beginning.

It's just that everyone lives with them day and night, and is used to their presence, so they don't realize it for a while.

It wasn't until they saw Wangjing injured and their faces turned pale with worry that they realized, as if in a dream, that Nuannuan and Wangjing, who had always been by their side, had grown so old without them noticing.

This made them very anxious. Their current research had not yet been applied, so wouldn't Nuannuan and Wangjing be leaving everyone?

What upset them even more was that Xu Mo told them that Nuannuan and Wangjing had already taken the Longevity Pill.

Yes, the Spirit of the Secret Realm has collected enough medicinal materials to refine the Longevity Pill, but the pill that extends life by one and a half Jia (a unit of time unit in Chinese astrology) is for human consumption.

Nuannuan and Wangjing are just ordinary mortal beasts. Human pills are too potent for them to consume.

According to the spirits of the secret realm, with Nuannuan and Wangjing's constitutions, they can only take pills that extend their lives by a maximum of ten years. Any more than that would be poison to them, which is the most frustrating thing.

Xu Mo was also powerless to solve this problem.
