I changed the world

After taking back the Cang Lei Sword, he took off the jade pendant from the altar. At this time, the bluish-white jade pendant turned completely white, and its texture obviously improved to a higher level.

Zhang Jingzheng was sitting by the fish pond in the courtyard, throwing fish food into the fish pond and looking at his mobile phone. The koi in the fish pond stretched out their heads to fight for the food, causing a splash of water on the water.

There were two missed calls on the phone, both from Wei Hanxin.It should have been when I was in Lishan Cave, so I couldn't get through it.So he left a message for himself on Qianluo. There were many messages, and he sounded very happy. Obviously, the attention of the song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" has been rising in the past few days, and Wei Hanxin's popularity The tide has also lifted all boats. In recent days, people from major music companies have been trying to sign this rising star.

In Wei Hanxin's message, in addition to sharing her joy, she also emphasized that she wanted to seek Zhang Jing's opinion. After all, for a singer, signing a contract is a big deal.

Zhang Jing is aware of Wei Hanxin's condition. Her manager had already left her because she had been so miserable, and no music company was willing to invest in her. This made her become a girl without A free person bound by any contract.

Zhang Jing listened to Wei Hanxin's messages one by one and could tell that she was a little entangled now. Like many artists, Wei Hanxin had trouble choosing a music company.

For the existence of music companies, most singers both love and hate it, which is a very complicated mentality.What I love is that music companies have far more resources and capital than most artists, especially new singers, and can pave the way for artists in music production, promotion, publicity, distribution, etc.

However, everything has a flip side. From another perspective, stars are just commodities to music companies. Companies will always find ways to use contract frameworks to control artists, exploit and exploit them as much as possible, and squeeze out economic value.

Chapter 331 The spirit guarding the house

For example, after joining a music company, generally speaking, the copyright of an artist's songs belongs to the company rather than the singer himself. This directly leads to many singers choosing to break away from the company and re-record songs after becoming famous, thereby bypassing the copyright barriers controlled by the company.What goes further is personal control, such as what business activities the company requires its artists to participate in, or even socializing, using high salary remuneration to make XI money... Negative scandals here have never stopped.For some artists who are not easy to control, the company has many ways to "hide" them.

Relatively speaking, artists and companies are mostly in a state of some kind of game. Due to contract restrictions, artists, especially newcomers, are often the weaker side of the game.

Zhang Jing was not in this industry in his previous life, but because of his work, he still interacted with some people in the industry and learned a lot of inside information from hearsay.In this world, because of the release of music works, we also know some information in this regard.

After thinking about it, he still left a message to Wei Hanxin, expressing his views without hesitation.

First, he helped her analyze the pros and cons of both sides, and then suggested that she shouldn't be too eager to get a contract from a music company.After all, although her new songs have achieved good results, she is not famous enough to get the music company to make huge concessions on the contract.

In this case, instead of signing a contract of sale, it is better to polish herself. After all, she has made a good start now. As long as she can continue to produce excellent works in the future, she does not have to worry about not having an audience.After all, songs and singing, and even the attitude towards music, are the foundation for a singer to establish himself.

"From the perspective of a friend, I sincerely hope that you can live your life how you want according to your own ideas. Sometimes, if you give up a little, you may be able to go further."

From Zhang Jing's perspective, on the one hand, he really didn't want Wei Hanxin to jump into that complicated circle. As they got to know her over time, he did treat her as a good friend.

As far as Zhang Jing's observation is concerned, Wei Hanxin is actually a pebble that has not been rounded off by society. She has her own persistence, but because of this, she can't get along in a circle like the entertainment industry that follows certain rules. Her previous encounters are the best proof.Since it's not the material, don't insist on rounding yourself.

In addition, from the perspective of wishing, Zhang Jing also hopes to open a big faucet in this area and provide himself with some wishing points. If Wei Hanxin is signed by a music company, the operation here will become much more complicated. After all, purely from a copyright perspective, it would be very troublesome.Zhang Jing is not short of money, and he doesn't want to sell the songs directly. That would be killing the goose that lays the egg.

Of course, he just expressed his opinion. As for Wei Hanxin's final choice, he would not force it. This was her freedom, and he had no habit of interfering with the freedom of others.

After leaving his message, Zhang Jing put away his cell phone, threw the last bit of fish food into the fish pond, and walked towards the back mountain.He had one more important thing to do.

....................................

Standing next to the "Shuo Ren Pavilion" in the back mountain, the sun shone on him, making him feel warm and comfortable. Zhang Jing looked at the surrounding scenery. There was the sound of birdsong all around, and a faint cloud and mist filled the tea mountain. The morning dew has not yet dispersed on the distant leaves, and the air is refreshing.

Taking out the white jade pendant as a "send", Zhang Jing drew a mysterious rune on the ground and placed it on it. After a while, he saw that the jade pendant seemed to be placed in a viscous liquid. , slowly sank, submerged into the ground, and the runes disappeared...

After a while, I saw that the surrounding fog gradually began to thicken. The originally light clouds and fog soon became one, and then spread in all directions, soon covering a considerable area including Zhang Zhai. .

Of course, for ordinary people passing by, they didn't feel anything strange about this scene. At most, they just felt that the clouds and fog were a bit thicker today.After all, this is Linzhou's main tea-producing area, and the climate has always been like this. Especially in the early morning, there are many clouds and fog. In fact, the word "Yunshan" in Yunshanfang is named after it.

"Come out." As soon as Zhang Jing finished speaking, he saw some clouds and mist around him suddenly gathering together, and a huge face as tall as a person gathered around him. This face was completely made of clouds and mist, and there was a buzzing sound. He said: "I have met the Lord."

Zhang Jing looked at it and said, "Change your appearance and turn into a human form."

The next moment, the clouds and mist dissipated, and a yellow scarf warrior covered in armor walked out of nothingness, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "My lord."

Zhang Jing walked around him, thought for a while, and reached out to touch his forehead. Then, the appearance of the yellow turban warrior changed again, turning into an old man about 1.5 meters tall, with a kind face and smooth hair and beard. Bai has a long white beard that almost reaches his abdomen. He is wearing an khaki long-sleeved dark coat, a square crown on his head, his back is slightly bowed, and he is holding a wooden staff that is slightly taller than him. This wooden staff The upper part is twisted and knotted, like a dragon.

"Okay, this is what you will look like from now on." Zhang Jing looked at this figure, which was somewhat similar to the Earth God in traditional culture, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Let's call this image Mr. Fu."

"Thank you, Lord, for the name." The old man saluted respectfully.

"You can call me young master from now on." This old man is the incarnation of the housekeeper, not a dull puppet. Considering that he might be able to appear as a butler in the future to handle some things, Zhang Jing asked him to use this form. World servants refer to themselves by the common title of their master.

"Yes, sir."

Tomorrow is the first day of school. An Huiling has returned to school early today. Luo Yan is said to be arriving tonight. There is no one else in the dormitory now. After settling in and paying homage, she tidies up the room in the dormitory for a winter vacation. No one was living there, and a thin layer of dust had accumulated in the dormitory.

After spending half an hour cleaning the dormitory, An Huiling opened her laptop and began to check the housing information that Meier had sent to her.

The news was sent early this morning. Although she had not expressed any urgency before, Linzhou still started to push forward as soon as they received the news. Xiao Xiao and others spent a whole day on it. Kung Fu, under the guidance of the intermediary, visited almost all the houses for sale in Yunshanfang and surrounding areas. Finally, based on the requirements conveyed by Meier, he selected five of the properties and specially prepared information.

Chapter 332 Special Operation to Combat Cults and Obscene Cults

What An Huiling was checking at this time was the information on these properties. Among the five properties, two properties were located in other neighborhoods around Yunshanfang. The environment was also very good. In addition, each had other advantages. For example, one of the properties has its own natural pond connected to the water source of Yun Lake, which can be used for daily fishing; while the real estate attached to the other property is the largest among the five manors in terms of area. At the same time, because the owner of the property is eager to sell, The price is also quite attractive.

However, An Huiling did not put too much energy into these two properties. After a brief inspection, she focused on the other three properties.

These three properties are all located in Yunshanfang. Yunshanfang is quite large. It is about the size of a medium-sized village. Most of the buildings here are single-family houses, and many of them are houses like Zhang Jing's. Generally, there is a tea mountain or a very large courtyard.Because when they purchased it, they all bought land and built it themselves.During this period, there were also many small plots of land, mostly because the original owners divided the entire land and sold it.

As the core production area of ​​Longxu Tea and part of the Yunhu Scenic Area, land prices have always been relatively stable. Most of the residents are wealthy people, and many of the owners use this place as a vacation property.

One of the three properties An Huiling saw was smaller in size. It could be seen that it was cut out from other plots, and the attached yard was only about a few hundred square meters.

The other two properties are of similar size. One is a traditional Chinese-style courtyard with an area of ​​about 3 acres. The original owner of the property used it as a holiday manor. Currently, in order to raise funds for investment, there is a strong sale Will.

The other property is a building with a combination of Chinese and Western styles. It is a mountain-view house. The house and courtyard cover an area of ​​about 4 acres. It is surrounded by a metal fence and has better privacy. What is rare is that this property The property has an attached tea garden, which is connected to the property and belongs to the extended land behind the property. The property plus the tea garden area makes the total land area 12 acres. Such an area is not too small in Yunshanfang. Generally speaking, In other words, the land area of ​​the tea gardens in Yunshanfang is not large, and the area of ​​tea gardens is generally about 3 acres. After all, this is a tea garden in the core production area of ​​Longxu tea.However, the owner seems to be in no rush to sell, so he is asking a higher price.

From the perspective of vacation, the first two properties are obviously more cost-effective. The last property will need to hire people to take care of the tea gardens, and the price is not so advantageous. The advantage is that the overall area is relatively larger.

An Huiling carefully checked the map of Yunshanfang. The third property is located approximately in the core of Yunshanfang. It is estimated from the map that the walking distance from the senior brother's home is about 100 meters. It is the closest of the three properties. As for The price is indeed high. The owner quoted 268 million, which is higher than the average price in the area.

However, An Huiling didn't pay too much attention to the price. After all, she always saved the annual New Year's money and pocket money. She didn't have any squandering habits on weekdays, and she still had a lot of money in her hands. Deposit.

After repeatedly confirming that everything was in line with her ideas, An Huiling dialed her cell phone.

"Hey, yes, it's me."

"Well... I've seen it, and I think the property at No. 1603 Yunshanfang is good."

"Hmm... um... yes... let's confirm the price and other details with the landlord. If there are no other questions, I will fly over to sign the contract on the weekend."

"... At the meeting, the joint supervision group composed of the National Civil Affairs Administration, the State Administration of Religious Affairs, the Police General Administration, the Ministry of Justice and other departments announced to the relevant personnel of the Jiangdong Provincial Government the special instructions for combating cults and obscene rituals. Guidelines and opinions for special operations.

In accordance with the general requirements of severely punishing in accordance with the law and treating both the symptoms and root causes, we should give full play to our functional advantages and solidly carry out work such as the management and control of special groups, the supervision and management of lawyer education, the publicity and education of the rule of law, and the investigation and resolution of conflicts and disputes. We must pay attention to the special role of orthodox religious personnel in social life. With the advantage of identity, carry out detailed investigation, find something, and crack down resolutely!

..............................

The relevant person in charge of the Jiangdong Provincial Justice Bureau made a statement at the meeting, resolutely implementing the guidelines and opinions on the special campaign to combat cults, obscenities and rituals, and reported on the work that has been carried out so far.

The Provincial Special Office for Combating Cults and Obscene Sacrifice has issued a large number of relevant promotional materials and has begun to conduct thorough investigations, especially to actively investigate and control the information of core participants such as organizers, funders, and core religious figures of cults and obscene rituals. …

Provincial Governor Mr. Li Yunlin made a special speech at the meeting. Mr. Li said that cracking down on cults and obscene worship is a new requirement for improving the governance system and governance capabilities. It is crucial to strengthen education for the people, especially the people at the bottom..."

Taking the cup of tea brought by the maid, Zhang Jing put it to his mouth and took a sip, then placed it on the coffee table beside him.The maid took back the tea tray and silently retreated to a corner.

Looking at the news on TV, Zhang Jing knew that this was probably the follow-up impact of the previous incident on Sulu Island. It seemed that the relevant departments at the government level had already characterized the incident. Regarding cults and obscene rituals, according to the empire’s previous It is a consistent policy that as long as such things are not too scandalous, the relevant departments will generally ignore them. After all, religion is a bit troublesome to manage, especially the stupid men and women at the bottom who don’t know what it means to believe in a cult. Things like that, and some local obscene priests that were born out of local worship do have a popular base.

However, once the Sulu incident came out, the importance of the matter was different. At least in the eyes of some high-level officials in the empire, a lot of risks accumulated here.

Zhang Jing is happy to see such a change. At least in his current view, the threat of evil gods is indeed emerging. His current strength is not enough. If the government can take precautions, it would be better. Variety.

From Zhang Jing's perspective, in the long run, his plan is to gradually improve the extraordinary system behind this world. However, this matter cannot be rushed and needs to be progressed in small steps.

Chapter 333 The Maid

In his opinion, at the level of wishing, both the acquisition of wishing points and the use of wishing points also need to be kept within a moderate range.In terms of obtaining wishing points, he does not want to obtain excess wishing points through some explosive events such as "making a big plane". The reason here is also very simple. If there are too many wishing points in a single event, it will He will enter events such as "forced tests", and what makes him even more wary are the "side effects" of making a wish. If the side effects exceed his ability to solve the event, the impact will be quite troublesome.Even in Zhang Jing's opinion, there may be a catastrophic event here.

Fortunately, the "paranormal return" has not been around for a long time so far. Judging from the public opinion that Zhang Jing follows on the Internet every day, most of the truly countless major events should be related to him, and the vast majority of them are related to him. It was produced as a side effect of the wish.Other than that, there are at best some half-truths and half-false rumors about ghosts being spotted somewhere.

However, Zhang Jing also knows that as time goes by, the gradual accumulation of various factors will inevitably cause greater and greater changes at various levels to begin to appear.

He glanced at the maid who was waiting respectfully in the corner of the house. The maid had a delicate face, her hair was in a bun, and her upper body was dressed in moon-white armor.The lower body is the same moon-white pleated skirt. The skirt is exquisitely crafted and reveals the elegant bamboo pattern.The milky white embroidered shoes are embroidered with a pale pink lotus flower, and the steps are silent.

Zhang Jing knew clearly that this pleasant-looking maid was actually not a real person, but a puppet woven by the housekeeper.If you look carefully or even communicate with her, you will find that there is a hint of rigidity in the maid's actions, as if she is a machine operating according to a certain program.

When Zhang Jing dealt with the Earthbound Spirit incident before, the various monsters he encountered in Zhongtai Paradise were all puppets woven by the Earthbound Spirit. This is the innate ability of high-level Earthbound Spirits. These puppets can only be controlled by the Earthbound Spirit. activities within the area and does not have its own intelligence.

This ability, to use a less appropriate metaphor, is that ordinary people can unconsciously weave the dream world in their dreams, and a very small number of specially trained people can even consciously create "lucid dreams" and consciously follow their own dreams. Ideas weave your own dream world.

Earth-bound spirits can also weave a false world according to their own wishes. In this world, there can also be various creatures, but this ability can only be carried out in the area that they can control.

After the earth-bound spirit was transformed into a house-guarding spirit, this ability was also inherited.

It just so happens that because Zhang Jing has too many secret relationships, he does not hire special people to take care of his house on weekdays. This point, whether in terms of Zhang Jing's net worth or the area of ​​​​the house he currently lives in, They are all inappropriate.

At the same time, certain trivial tasks do consume a lot of his energy, such as pruning the garden, maintaining and tidying up the house, cleaning the house, doing laundry and cooking, regularly cleaning the fish pond, cleaning the vehicle... and other such trivial matters.And these troubles, after having the guardian spirit, can be solved using a rather "occult" method.

Zhang Jing asked the housekeeper to weave three puppet maids, named Yuming, Yuzhao, and Yuqing. In addition, he also weaved a gardener to be in charge of the courtyard.

In this way, all the trivial matters are freed. Even if someone comes to visit, you can't tell that these people are just puppets.

Zhang Jing is quite happy to see this convenience.After he obtained the "Handmaid's Scroll", his initial idea was to hang the scroll at home, which would achieve the same effect.However, now that there is a guardian spirit, the "Waiting Scroll" can be used in other places.

"Hmm... the tea is a bit strong. You can put less tea leaves in the future. I prefer lighter tea." Zhang Jing took another sip of tea and then casually ordered.

"Yes." The maid on the side responded respectfully.

Zhang Jing turned off the TV and walked out of the main house. In the inner courtyard, an old gardener in Tsing Yi was pruning flowers and plants. The housekeeper can control the atmosphere of the house, so from now on, Zhang Jing's house even has All the plants in the tea garden do not need to be deliberately fertilized or weeded. The housekeeper will naturally regulate their growth.Of course, proper pruning is still unavoidable, especially since Zhang Jing had no intention of taking care of the plants in the inner courtyard before. Some bonsais that were originally controlled to grow have gradually grown haphazardly as if they were free rein, and these need to be carefully re-carefully prune.

In addition, the koi carp originally raised in the fish pond in the inner courtyard became a little thin because Zhang Jing fed them one at a time. There are also tasks such as regular cleaning of the fish pond's filter system, which will be left to the gardener in the future. .

If someone passes by Zhang Jing's residence at this time and observes carefully, they will find that there is a vague layer of mist floating around in the large area near Zhang Jing's residence, even at noon. Never dispersed either.The fog is so indifferent that passers-by often overlook it. Of course, even if they don't ignore it, they will only think that it is a normal phenomenon nearby. After all, the surrounding climate is full of common clouds and fog.

For the housekeeper, this seemingly inconspicuous mist is like the open tentacles of an octopus, allowing it to grasp all changes around it. Even the smallest intrusion can be immediately detected, and then Make a judgment.Even if the intruder is as small as a mosquito, it will not be missed.

Climb up the steps of the back mountain. On both sides of the steps, you can see lifelike carvings of stone beasts at regular intervals. Similar carvings are also found on the roof of Zhang Jing's residence, which are based on the gargoyle. exist in the form of.These are also woven by the guardian spirits. If necessary, these stone beasts can be activated instantly and serve as the guardians of the building.

At the end of the steps is the viewing platform where Shuoren Pavilion is located. This is the commanding height of the surrounding area. Standing here, you can overlook the tea mountains on both sides, and the scenery is pleasant.The entire plot of land owned by Zhang Jing is approximately irregular rectangular, with a two-vehicle road running diagonally through the middle, cutting it into two halves. There are walking paths on both sides of the road. This road does not belong to Zhang. Respectfully, this is a public road under the direct jurisdiction of the municipal government.The section of this road that runs through Zhang Jing's private residence is about a hundred meters long, and the gate of Zhang Jing's main residence is also opened on this road.

Zhang Jing observed the surrounding tea gardens. Tea trees are evergreen plants all year round. At this season, the new leaves have not sprouted yet, and the tea mountains are full of dark green. There was a light rain a few days ago, so there is no need to water them. There were no tea farmers working in the mountains for two days.

Chapter 334 Lanruo Temple

There is a sidewalk on the viewing platform where Zhang Jing is located that can go directly to the tea garden. This is also to facilitate his inspection as a landowner. Of course, in fact, Zhang Jing only occasionally goes to take a look when he is on a whim. Therefore, this sidewalk The end is usually locked by a fence. The spiked fence is equipped with surveillance equipment to separate the tea garden and the residential area.

Zhang Jing had no intention of going to the tea garden at this time, but walked to the side of Shuoren Pavilion. The ground here was paved with bluestone. Zhang Jing scanned the ground and found one of the bluestones with a relief Bagua-like pattern.This pattern is just a bas-relief, it doesn’t look eye-catching, it’s about the size of a palm. If you don’t observe it carefully, you won’t notice it even if you walk next to it.

Zhang Jing walked to the Bagua pattern and lightly stamped it with his right foot three times. The next moment, he saw the scenery in front of him change suddenly. He was on a small hillside with lush trees around. Looking up, Xing Han The splendid, dazzling galaxy is completely different from the night sky with few stars that is common in big cities like Linzhou.

The moonlight spreads across the earth, and there is a stone tablet not far away from Zhang Jing. The stone tablet looks simple and vicissitudes of life, half hidden in the grass, and has two ancient seal script characters "Taoyuan" written on it.

Surrounded by dense and dense woods, Zhang Jing briefly identified the direction and went down the mountain to the southeast. Not far away, he saw an ancient road in the forest. It was not very flat, but there were still traces of some broken stone slabs.There was the sound of gurgling water not far away, and it was obvious that a stream was passing nearby.

Zhang Jing floated up and jumped back and forth on the treetops on both sides of the ancient road, moving forward at high speed like a shadow in the forest.

Deep in the jungle, there were occasional strange roars, as if there were some ferocious beasts, but Zhang Jing didn't care at all and just moved forward quickly.

After walking forward for about 5 minutes, the sound of water in front of us became louder and louder, and we saw a stream coming diagonally from the side, cutting off the ancient road.

The stream is about five or six meters wide, and there is a broken stone arch bridge on it. There are stone fences on both sides of the bridge, and there are six watch posts on each side of the fence.There are circular lotus reliefs carved on the heads of the pillars, but most of them are damaged at this time, and some even have the pillars below broken...

Zhang Jing swept across the small bridge like a breeze, and walked forward a short distance. The stream merged into a lake several acres square, as level as a mirror. Occasionally, a breeze blew across the lake, causing ripples.

There are lotus flowers on the lake. It is obviously not the season for lotus flowers at this time, but the lotus flowers here have actually gathered buds, and one or two of them are even in full bloom.

The lake is surrounded by large bamboo forests, forming a bamboo sea. When the lake wind blows, the bamboo sea sways with the wind like waves.

Dots of fluorescent light danced in and around the lake. They looked like fireflies, adding a bit of dreamlike beauty to the entire lake.

On the side of the lake close to the ancient road, not far away, there is an ancient stele lying there. In the moonlight, you can see an unknown poem engraved on the stele:

Ten miles of Pinghu, the sky is full of frost,

An inch of blue silk is mourning the Chinese New Year.

Looking at the moon and looking at each other,

I only envy mandarin ducks, not immortals.

The body of the monument is in ruins, but the inscription is damaged and blurred.
