Chapter 119 It’s hard to be a god of service, Momei Villa

(Due to review reasons, the content of the two chapters has been repeated and has now been replaced. This chapter should be [Chapter 118: It’s Hard to Seal the God of Service, Momei Villa], but it seems that the title cannot be changed, so it can only be placed here. .For those who didn’t order more yesterday, just read on, it won’t affect you)

Shen Guanye took the train all the way and returned to Hongdong County. He first went to his hometown and placed the rat demon cave in the ancestral hall. Then he got some corpses of heroic spirits from the Kingdom of God, sacrificed them and recruited six rat demons. .

After telling the old man and Uncle Shengshan about the situation, he hurried back to the county.

Previously, he left the leopard spirit in the ancestral hall to guard the nest of heroic spirits. With the strength of the leopard spirit, he believed that there would be less problems in the ancestral hall in the future.

After returning to the county seat, I finally received some good news.

Hongdongying no longer opposed the establishment of a rural protection group.

Although this is to be expected.

Previously, Gong Ziqiang led the Hongdong Battalion to the mountains to encircle and suppress the Hongshan bandits, which resulted in Hongdong County being invaded by Canglang Village.

When such a big mistake occurred, Gong Ziqiang was too busy to take care of himself that he could not still have the energy to oppose the county's formation of a rural protection group.

He had no objection in this name.

If the hometown protection regiment had been established earlier, the county would not have been overwhelmed by the hail of bullets during the siege of Canglang Village - the biggest source of casualties in that battle was bullets.

Shen Guanye first quickly completed the procedures for Shen Guanchao to join the Public Security Section. Shen Guanchao performed well in the search for Centipede Spirit and the city defense operation, so joining the Public Security Section as the branch director was considered convincing.

Then it was time to recruit members of the hometown protection group, and things went smoothly.

Because the benefits are good enough, many young adults signed up.

The Public Security Bureau is slowly screening.

Then another good thing happened.

Shen Guanyu finally awakened and became a level 1 warrior.

Although the warrior path is obviously "earlier" than the enlightened ones of the other three paths, those who awaken early and awaken at a very young age.

But it is quite rare for Shen Guanye to successfully awaken at the age of 16, which shows that he has extraordinary talent and full potential.

Judging from this potential, in the future he will not only become a high-level warrior, but at least a mid-level warrior, that is, a sixth-level apocalypse.

Such strength is enough to be included in the county annals in Hongdong County.

It can be said that if it hadn't been for Marshal Hong's appearance, Shen Guanye's period would have been smooth sailing, with good things happening one after another.

……

In the evening, Shen Zhai, after dinner, Shen Guanye sat in the main room, thinking about what to do next.

The most important thing is to find a level 2 nest as soon as possible, including the first five immortal shrines and the rat demon cave given by Marshal Hong.

Now he is only short of the last level 2 lair to be promoted. By then, the first level 3 lair will be born in the country.

His strength and heritage will be further improved.

You must know that the highest level nest owned by the Su family is only level 3.

Therefore, the next thing he has to do is to disperse the newly born Yellow Turban Warriors and Grass-headed Gods and find a new nest for him.

It just so happens that the hiding abilities of the Yellow Turban Warriors and the Grass-Headed Gods are both strong, and they are not easily discovered if they disperse into the mountains.

The second most important thing is to enshrine the No. 2 god as soon as possible.

The potential and growth of the ancient sword boy are obvious to all.

The reason why his importance has declined now is because his men's combat power has expanded too fast. How many Lords of Apocalypse can obtain three level 7 heroic spirits in less than two months after becoming Lords of Apocalypse?

There is no doubt that the God of Samurai is an important part of his men's combat power. With each additional God of Samurai, his strength will become stronger.

The problem is that during this period, he has been unable to find a second object that can be sealed.

Now he has access to and control more good things, but he has tried many times and cannot seal them.

He was almost ready for the third seal, but he didn't even use the second chance. He was really behind the schedule.

However, this kind of thing seems to only depend on fate. Until now, he didn't know what could be sealed and what couldn't.

You said that an heirloom like the Eight-sided Han Sword, an object that has accumulated the faith of many generations of the family, can be sealed by imperial edict, right?
There are several such things in the house, but none of them can be sealed by the imperial edict.

Do you think those ancient trees that have been around for a long time and are even mythical in the local area may be sealed by the imperial edict?

He also tried it, but it still didn't work.

Antiques, ancient wood, gold and jade, statues, stone carvings...

He had tried everything he could think of without success.

Therefore, there is no need to rush this matter, we can only let it happen.

The third thing was the idea he had at the beginning of his time travel, which was to set up a newspaper.

As the world enters modern times, public opinion and propaganda have become extremely important. In this chaotic era of sudden changes, it is even more important to have a channel for speaking out.

Moreover, he is a person who has experienced the era of information explosion in later generations. Many public opinion routines are applied to this era, and they are completely dimensionality reduction attacks.

He is confident of building a strong publicity department.

But at that time he was in crisis.

Although even without this crisis, with his wealth and status at the time, he would not have been able to create a newspaper.

He had no intention of founding a newspaper in Hongdong County. A small county like Hongtong County simply could not support a newspaper.

It's not possible to go to Canglang City. Canglang City is right under Dashuai Hong's nose and the risk is too great.

What he is looking for is Donghai City, and only Donghai City, an international metropolis with a mixture of good and bad, where all forces gather, is a suitable place.

To establish a newspaper in Donghai City, it is absolutely impossible without certain capital and connections.

He didn't have this capital when he first traveled through time, but now he has enough.

He has to go to Donghai City if he finds a chance.

The rest was work and factory matters, none of which required him to do it himself, and everything went smoothly.

Also, because he offended Marshal Hong, there may be problems with his subsequent promotion, but this will happen later, so there is no need to worry for the time being.

While Shen Zhimei was helping Wu's mother clear the dining table, she glanced in Shen Guanye's direction from time to time.

"Brother Ye, I think the spring weather is pretty good, and you have some free time during this period. Otherwise, let's go to Dongbi Lake on a day with good weather."

Dongbi Lake is a famous lake in Hongdong County, just on the edge of the county seat. This is an artificially dug lake.

The original intention was not to build a lake, but to mine stone.

At that time, high-quality stones were discovered near the county seat. These stones were quarried and transported to the capital for the emperor to build royal gardens.

After the stone was mined, many rugged mountains were formed on the site. As the rain and wind blew, rainwater and streams accumulated, forming an artificial lake.

The water surface of this artificial lake is clear, reflecting the plants on the rockery. It is quiet and green, and also has jagged rocks. Boating in it is winding and winding, which is very interesting.

Today, it has become a major leisure and scenic spot in Hongdong County, and even people from other places come here to visit the lake.Especially in spring, wild flowers bloom on the mountain walls, making it a great place for a spring outing.

"Okay, look at the sunset in the evening, the weather should be good tomorrow, or tomorrow? Mother Wu is preparing some snacks, and we can have a picnic by the lake at noon."

Shen Guanye's meditation was interrupted and he responded with a smile.

It was really time for him to relax.

Career is important, but spending time with your family is equally important.

His little nephew has not been out much since he arrived home.

"Hey, okay." Wu Ma agreed.

Shen Zhimei was also very happy. After clearing the dishes and table, she discussed with Wu Ma and Zhao Ma about the things and ingredients to bring tomorrow.

She also knew that the nest given by Marshal Hong was a rat demon cave. Shen Guanye told her family about this situation when she came back.

So Shen Zhimei has been paying attention to Shen Guanye's mood these days. Seeing him dazed and thinking, she felt that he was worried and depressed.

She wanted Shen Guanye to relax and stop thinking about offending Marshal Hong.

The next day, the weather was really nice.

The two hired cars were waiting at the gate early. Looking at Li Silang and others who were moving things into the cars, they said in a deep voice:
"Looks like it's time to buy a car."

Shen Guanye nodded.

"Otherwise it would be really inconvenient to go out."

After that, the whole family went out, and even Anshi, who didn't like going out very much, went out this time.

……

In Dongbi Lake, a black-topped boat breaks through the mirror-like blue lake and slowly turns through the waterway.

The sun was just right, neither too cold nor too hot, and the spring breeze was blowing. The family enjoyed the scenery and chatted leisurely.

At noon, we came to a villa by the lake.

This is also a scenic spot in Hongdong County called "Momei Villa".

In terms of popularity, Momei Villa is much higher than Dongbi Lake.

Dongbi Lake is only well-known in the surrounding areas. Outside the scope of Zhenlong Province, basically no one knows about it.

But Momei Villa is well-known throughout the country. In terms of popularity, it is much better than the Bai family's Dansu Garden.

The reason why Momei Villa has such a high reputation is all due to its first owner.

Its first owner was a very famous figure in Tianxia history:
Li Dongshan is known as "the master of calligraphy and painting".

This person plays an important role in the history of Tianxia's calligraphy and painting. He lived 1000 years ago. Both calligraphy and painting were in their own school, and he had a dominant position in both fields.

Simply in the field of calligraphy or painting, it may not be the most highly rated, and it may not be ranked first.

But combined in the two fields, no one can reach his height.

Therefore, Li Dongshan was extremely well-known in Tianxia and had great status in both fields. When later generations of literati studied calligraphy or painting, they had many patriarchal influences on him.

As the saying goes, "If the mountain is not high, it will be famous if it has immortals. If the water is not deep, it will be spiritual if it has dragons."

Historical figures can bring great fame to a place, especially those like Li Dongshan who rank high among historical celebrities.

Because Li Dongshan is best at painting plum blossoms, this place was named "Momei Villa".

Beside the mountain stream of the villa, brothers Shen Guanye and Shen Guanyu spread out the tablecloth and took out the pots and pans. Anshi held the child while Shen Zhimei and Wu's mother processed the ingredients and prepared the meals.

There are not many ingredients prepared, mainly dumplings, which Wu Ma and Zhao Ma specially made last night.

After Shen Guanye helped for a while, Shen Zhimei drove him away.

These days, it is still important for a gentleman to stay away from the kitchen. It is normal for Shen Guanye not to help with the cooking, but it is abnormal to help.

Unable to win over the female relatives, Shen Guanye followed him, and like Shen's father and Shen Guanyu, began to wander around the villa.

The villa is actually in a semi-abandoned state. After all, it was built 1000 years ago. Unlike Dansu Garden, it has always been in the hands of the same family. Even though it has been repaired and rebuilt several times during the period, not much is left today.

At this time, there is not a single building in Momei Villa that truly belonged to 1000 years ago. Most of the buildings were left over after the last owner of the villa rebuilt it 200 years ago.

It's a pity that this family was not managed well, and after only a few generations it was no longer able to support such a large villa. After that, Momei Villa fell into abandonment, and is now managed by the government.

However, the government these days has no concept of tourism and scenic spots. The so-called management is just to put an iron lock on all buildings. At most, it means sending people to check on the situation regularly.

Therefore, the entire villa is overgrown with weeds, and many of the walls have collapsed. Moss, weeds, and even small trees can be seen on the pavilions and pavilions inside.

However, 1000 years ago, the plum blossom forest that was said to have been planted by Li Dongshan himself had experienced 1000 years of life and death, but was still there and became more prosperous.

Shen Guanye walked to the plum blossom forest. There was a small pavilion on the edge of the forest. The attic was built next to a small water pool. There were stone steps connecting the pavilion and the water pool. After climbing down the steps, you could reach the water pool.

This pool is also called "Mochi".

Legend has it that it was the place where Li Dongshan washed his ink after writing and painting.

Because he practiced so hard that the water in the pool was dyed ink, hence the name "Mochi".

Although this world is different from the world Shen Guanye originally lived in, many things are similar.

For example, Li Dongshan and Mo Chi sound like a replica of Wang Xizhi's story.

It's just that Wang Xizhi is the undisputed number one in calligraphy, but Li Dongshan is a step behind. But if his painting skills are included, Li Dongshan's historical status in Tianxia is no worse than Wang Xizhi's in the original world.

Shen Guanye looked at the quiet pool water.

The water is very clear, not at all like the legend said, but this is normal. No one is washing brushes in the ink pool now, so where does the ink color come from?
At this moment, an idea came to Shen Guanye's mind. He looked around and found that his father and younger brother were not in sight, and there were no other tourists nearby.

So, he tried to activate the edict.

Difficult and mysterious mantras were spit out from the mouth, and the invisible power washed away.

The water in the pool rippled automatically without wind, as if it was pregnant with something.

It really can!

Shen Guanye was very excited.

Originally, he just wanted to try it on a whim and didn't expect to succeed. After all, he had tried so many things before without success.

This is really "looking for him thousands of times in the crowd, but suddenly looking back, he is there in the dim light." It is really a big surprise.

After the spell stopped, the water pool began to bloom with an ink-colored glow. A dot of ink appeared out of thin air in the center of the pool, spreading around like an ink painting.

The movement was a bit too loud, and Shen Guanye quickly issued an order.

"The edict is invisible."
