Chapter 286 Between movement and silence

Vandak was very busy, what was Shi Shuangcheng doing? She has been engaged in construction these days.

On the day he arrived at Yangyuan Valley, Shi Shuangcheng built a pavilion with bamboo tiles and four corners and had a buffet BBQ dinner. Shi Shuangcheng spent a whole day building another stilt house the next day.

There are twelve square wooden pillars under the house. The lower ends of the pillars are round bluestone foundations, and the upper ends support cage beams. The cage beams are covered with thick and tight wooden floors. The house is about three meters high from the ground.

The structural diagram given by Yang Tehong was a rectangular house. Shi Shuangcheng added some small designs himself, dividing the house into two rooms, inside and outside, which are equivalent to a living room and a bedroom. There is a gallery outside the front door of the house, and steps are built from the gallery to the pavilion.

While cooking in the evening, she even shouted: "Senior, can you give me some more design drawings? The more of all kinds of furniture, the better!" Then she shouted again, "Thank you!" She probably received a divine message. .

Not only did Shi Shuangcheng add a little bit of design herself, she also built facilities that were not in the drawings given by Old Man Yang. For example, she built a water tower high on the lakeshore behind the house, made pipes to lay the water supply and drainage system, built a bathroom by the lake, and built a kitchen outside the pavilion.

Next to the house, there was a big tree that could be hugged by several people, and she built a tree house on the tree more than ten meters above the ground. There is no ladder on the tree trunk, so this tree house is not accessible to ordinary people.

It took her three days to build all these facilities. She also made two sets of tables, chairs and benches, one for the pavilion and one for the living room. A very comfortable lounge chair was placed on the outside door. On the porch.

She had been fasting since the early morning of the third day. The method of fasting was not taught by Old Man Yang, she knew it herself. When night fell on the third day, the drizzle stopped, the clouds opened and the moon came out. Shi Shuangcheng stood in the pavilion and looked at the waxing moon on the top of the mountain in the distance.

She looked smug, content and upbeat, and those who didn't know thought she had done such a great thing!

Then he turned around and looked around at all the facilities he had built over the past three days. By the water in the valley, with interesting flowers and plants, and quiet bamboo trees, it was a fairy-sheltered residence with beautiful scenery.

Then she walked out of the pavilion with her hands behind her back, pointed her toes on the tree trunk, and walked up steadily as if she were ascending the clouds, and entered the secret tree house she had built. The magic weapon Dengyun Boots is so magical. As long as there is something with a little magic power to attach to, you can walk as usual.

On the fourth and fifth days, Shi Shuangcheng did not leave the tree house. She was practicing in seclusion. After all, she is a monk, and her cultivation has reached the perfection of the four realms. In fact, she had a vague feeling when she first arrived at Yangyuan Valley, as if the opportunity to break through the barrier was here and now.

A few days ago, she personally created the place of Qing Xiu, and even added some things according to her own wishes. It was actually a process of calmness and concentration, otherwise she would not have started fasting from the third day.

This period of time was also the beginning of the foundation of the Immortal Family's Cave Heaven Barrier. Although the mystery of creation was indescribable, she also had a real feeling.

On the sixth day, according to the five-day confinement period, half a day had actually passed, but Shi Shuangcheng did not shout that the time was up and that he should let his aunt out quickly. Because she was meditating on the mysteries, a spiritual thought had just been imprinted in her soul.

The method of the person who sent out this spiritual thought was extremely clever, and it did not disturb Shi Shuangcheng who was practicing at all. The content of the spiritual thought was an introduction to the Yangyuan Valley Formation, and its core was actually the inheritance of the divine soul imprint of the Fufeng Pan.

Of course Shi Shuangcheng knew that there was a cave formation here, and he could vaguely sense the mysterious changes in the formation's operation. It was only at this moment that he truly touched its core. But she is not the master of artifacts like Hua Zhenxing. Even if she has obtained the divine soul brand inheritance, she will not be able to operate the formation hub in this position.

As soon as the thought came up, my body and mind suddenly shifted, as if the space had changed. Without opening his eyes, Shi Shuangcheng naturally knew that he had inexplicably arrived at the stone pavilion in the center of the long embankment, sitting right at the center of the Yangyuan Valley formation.

An expert must have cast a spell to move her here, but she had no time to express her surprise. It was a rare opportunity, and she concentrated on turning the Fufeng Disk, and the entire Yangyuan Valley seemed to have turned into an interior scene...

At dawn, Shi Shuangcheng was still sitting in the bridge pavilion. The morning breeze blew the ancient willow tree at the head of the bridge, and thousands of fresh branches and leaves flew like silk. Surrounded by flowers and wild trees, where Shi Shuangcheng had been imprisoned for five days, another visiting group came, consisting of all the other people in Yangyuan Valley.

People entering the house, people climbing up the trees, knocking on the pillars, touching the chairs, everyone was observing the results left by Shi Shuangcheng in the past few days. Hua Zhenxing stood on the slope far away from the lake shore and was inspecting the water tower. He couldn't help but nodded and praised: "It's very cleverly designed!"

There are lakes here, which collect water from streams and springs in the surrounding mountains.

Of course, the Yangyuan Master's headquarters has a water source, including the dormitory area, research institute, and training department, which all have water supply and drainage systems. The water source comes from the high mountains extending into the valley behind the dormitory area. Natural streams have formed many deep pools in the mountains.

The water quality there was already very good. According to Mo Shangtong's plan, the three old men also built a series of pools according to the terrain to purify and store the incoming water, and built a water supply pipeline to the bottom.

However, the terrain in this area has neither natural deep pools nor conditions for building continuous pools. Shi Shuangcheng used hollow bamboo tubes to divert water from a high stream, and simply built a water tower.

Mr. Ke stood next to Hua Zhenxing. The old man looked at the area below, slightly twirled his beard and said, "Well, not bad! It's a good place to get quiet, study and study in the middle of the bustle."

Hua Zhenxing reminded: "Master, Yangyuan Valley is a blessed place in the cave. It is far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. It can't be said to be quiet in the bustle, right? And although there are no cars, horses and people, there are birds singing during the day and insects singing and frogs singing at night. It doesn’t seem to be very quiet.”

Ke Fuzi rolled his eyes at him: "Between the movement and the stillness are the sounds of nature, separated by mountains and rivers, which is in line with the state of pure heart. According to your plan for Yangyuan Valley, the headquarters will accommodate thousands of people in the future. Do you still think it's over there? Isn’t it noisy enough?”

Hua Zhenxing: "Yangyuan Valley covers hundreds of square kilometers. It is said that it is larger than the second ring road of Pingjing in Dongguo. Even if thousands of people move in in the future, it will still be less than the population of a small town. It is quiet and peaceful enough. How can you say that? What's going on?"

Ke Mengchao said with a hesitant look on his face: "You kid, have you learned how to argue?"

Hua Zhenxing said with a smile: "That's what I said. In fact, there is truth between movement and stillness. Quietness is good, and liveliness is also good. It depends on how quiet or lively it is. This is exactly what you taught me. How many of you? The courtyard built behind the office is a real place of tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle, while this place is just a place to live in isolation.”

Ke Mengchao nodded slightly: "That's right! But I think the layout of this place is still a little rough and can be improved a bit."

Hua Zhenxing: "After all, the time was too short. Miss Shi Shuangcheng was just one person and it only took three days."

Everyone visited and exchanged views in groups of three and three, and soon reached a consensus that the scenery here could be continued to be improved. Guang Ren and Yue Gao Le accompanied the three seniors to sit and watch in the pavilion, while the other senior officials took action together.

The front of the house on stilts faces the lake obliquely and is protected from the lake wind and moisture. The ratio of the distant mountain scenery to the lake scenery is the golden section in the field of vision. There are bamboo forests and flowers and trees nearby. Outsiders cannot see clearly from a distance, but the scenery from a distance here is not hindered.

There is still a corridor in front of the stilt house, where you can sit and enjoy tea and watch the rain. There is a step walkway in the mezzanine that connects to the waterside pavilion in front, and a rainproof and sunshade corridor has been added to the step walkway. The corridor is made of bamboo columns, bamboo beams, bamboo supports and bamboo tiles, and also extends from the pavilion to the kitchen and bathroom.

Materials such as bamboo, wood, masonry, and stone are all refined by spiritual consciousness according to their needs, either simple or refined, making them suitable and durable, and waterproof and fire-proof.

The scale of the stilt house has been expanded to three times its original size, with an additional one on each side, and the corridor outside the door is integrated into one. The middle part was originally built by Shi Shuangcheng, but was completely converted into a living hall, with a screen on one side, dividing about 60% of the area into the front hall and 40% into the back hall. There is a bedroom on both sides of the front and back halls, on the left and right.

Below the house, between the pillars is a space open on all sides, which is equivalent to the first floor without window walls. It is about three meters high and covers an area of ​​150 square meters. It has also been renovated, with floor tiles interspersed with yin flowers and trees. . With the tables and chairs set up, you can play poker, mahjong, barbecue, hold a cocktail party, or write poems and rhymes, both elegant and popular.

Everyone present had their own special skills, and everything was done in the afternoon. Hua Zhenxing nodded with satisfaction and said: "This is a very good place for spiritual cultivation in Yangyuan Valley."

Wang Fengshou: “It’s also a good place for team building!”

Yue Gao Le: "Are you going to do some repair work or do you want to do team building?"

Hua Zhenxing: "Between movement and stillness, there is true meaning."

Manman: "In the future, we can rearrange the trap formation so that outsiders cannot break into it."

In the afternoon, everyone started team building, collecting, transporting, washing vegetables and lighting fires, and also held a collective self-service BBQ reception, which felt like consecrating this "cave" project.

Yue Gaole didn't come empty-handed. He also had a space artifact and brought a lot of wine with him. There are the very expensive ones produced in Luobazhou, which taste pretty good if you try them; there are also the sauce-flavored, light-flavored, and strong-flavored varieties produced in Dongguo, all of which taste good; apart from white and red ones, of course there are also Beer, including a variety of craft beers.

Guang Ren sighed with emotion: "It would be better if there was Lao Chunhuang!" Yue Gaole actually turned cold and pretended not to hear.

The team building continued until late at night, but the three elderly people had already left at some point. The others did not leave, but found a place to rest here... The next morning, there was no movement from Shi Shuangcheng.

Many people took a week's leave to stay in the valley. Seeing that time was almost passing, Shi Shuangcheng had not yet broken out. The reason why they hadn't left since last night was because they wanted to wait for Shi Shuangcheng to come out of seclusion. But you can’t rush this kind of thing. In cultivation, you should just let nature take its course.

At around 11 o'clock in the morning, there was a loud shout that cheered everyone up. Only Shi Shuangcheng's voice shouted: "Hua Zhenxing, where are you? Come out quickly, I want to challenge you to a duel!"
