Lord of the Nine Realms

Chapter 24 Site Selection (Thanks)
According to the principle of first being far away and then being near, the huge herd first came to an abandoned village more than 50 miles away.

Under the arrangement of Chen Yuansheng, the beasts of all sizes carried materials.

Gerbils, sand cats, sand raccoons holding rafters, chair legs, plates, clay bowls...

Antelopes use their curved horns to lift window lattice, stools, chairs...

The camels were responsible for transporting the beams. Chen Yuansheng tied the two beams with straw ropes and placed them on both sides of the camel's hump.

What if there are not enough straw ropes? Use a big snake. A four-meter-long snake is used as a straw rope, wrapped around two beams and placed on both sides of the hump.

What if the big snake is not enough?
Two camels formed a group side by side, with two beams stretched across the humps. Behind the four groups of camels was a monitor lizard, which used its mouth to help put the beams back in case they fell.

Sand wolves boiling water tank: The large water tank fell to the ground, with four sand wolves pushing it behind with their paws as if playing a game.

The remaining monitor lizards were responsible for pulling the wheelless cart, which was piled with broken tables, pots, pots and other odds and ends. The eight monitor lizards held the sides of the cart in their mouths and moved forward cautiously.

"Er Falcon, put it down, put it down!"

Chen Yuansheng was riding a demon camel behind to control the formation. He looked up and saw Er Falcon holding a long-handled feces scoop and swinging around in the air. He immediately shouted to stop: "Don't want that, put it down."

"Boss, don't you have a saying called 'never forget your original intention'?"

"From now on, if you have nothing to do, just take it out twice, remembering the bitterness and remembering the sweetness."

Er Falcon is so sincere, it really digs out your liver and lungs.

Hitting people without slapping them in the face, exposing people without exposing their shortcomings, Er Falcon is rubbing salt into people's wounds and stabbing people in the heart!

Chen Yuansheng was about to lose his temper when the demon wolf next to him raised his head and said, "Er Falcon, sooner or later you will die on your broken mouth."

"Quack quack..."

When the words came to this point, Er Falcon actually had no intention of letting go. He grabbed the manure scoop and flew away. He was really a little expert in committing suicide.

"Nah! I have nothing to do with this bird."

Chen Yuansheng lifted up his bellyband, spat fiercely, turned around and saw his domineering silhouette on the sand, and immediately lost most of his anger.

The team of transported beasts spread out for thousands of meters, filled with dust and smoke, and rising sand and fog, which was very spectacular.

"Actually, it's not bad to be the king of beasts in the desert. The most unfortunate thing is that there are no women."

Chen Yuansheng stretched out his hand to scratch his chin, but it was on his bellyband. He sniffed and sniffed: There was no smell, which was disappointing.

…………

With the help of hundreds of desert beasts, it took only three days to move all the supplies from seven villages to the lake.

Looking at the mountains of "rags", Chen Yuansheng's dark face showed a fatherly smile.

Next is site selection, which is very important.

Chen Yuansheng was a university teacher who taught Chinese in his previous life. He has a deep knowledge of traditional culture and has done a lot of research on the Book of Changes, Feng Shui, and Qimen. He occasionally helps friends look at the Yin Yang House and the like, and he attaches great importance to building site selection.

At dawn, Chen Yuansheng got up early, took a simple bath in the lake, and put on the black robe.

He climbed up the tree and cut a straight branch more than one meter long, removed the twigs and leaves, and trimmed it into a round and smooth shape. Then he told the demon camel, dragon lizard, and demon wolf to drive away all the beasts drinking water from the lake.

After all the beasts were driven away, Chen Yuansheng walked along the lakeside with straight branches.

This place used to be a lake with a diameter of more than 300 meters. With the decrease of groundwater, the lake surface has been shrinking. Now it only remains 80 meters, surrounded by a slow slope of [-] meters long.

The house certainly cannot be built on a gentle slope.

Chen Yuansheng walked slowly along the sand and around the lakeside, murmuring:
“The overlapping mountains and passes reveal spiritual opportunities, and a blessed land will naturally have blessed people inhabiting it.”

"From a distance, you can see a green dragon rising in the shape of a mountain, and from a close look, you can see a koi carp lying on the water."

“One inch of high water is a mountain, and one inch of low soil is a circle of water.”

"There is Qinglong Water Creek Bay on the left, and White Tiger Beihuan Mountain on the right." "Thousands of mountains have their own potential of thousands of layers, and thousands of rivers have thousands of layers."

…………

The second falcon followed in the air for a while and found that Chen Yuansheng didn't even look at it. He suddenly felt that the bird was boring, so he flew away.

Site selection is a big deal and there is no room for distraction.

Chen Yuansheng concentrated his energy, his face sank like water, and walked along the lakeshore for nearly an hour.

Without a compass, he could only rely on his feelings and finally arrived at the south bank. He repeatedly measured the distance 81 steps away from the slow slope and drew a one-foot-diameter circle on the ground with branches.

Stand in the middle of the circle, close your eyes and feel quietly.

"It's here."

Chen Yuansheng opened his eyes, and a trace of determination flashed across his dark face. He took a step back and pulled out his short knife, dug a hole [-] cm deep at the position of the circle, and inserted the branch into it forcefully.

This is laying the foundation. Laying the foundation means breaking ground, and breaking ground means starting construction.

No matter when the house is built in the future, it will be calculated from the date of foundation laying (the construction time will be based on the date of foundation laying, not the date of capping).

Chen Yuansheng called the demon camel, dragon lizard, and demon wolf, and asked them to transport some beams and rafters to him and lay out the outlines of four houses on the sand.

After finishing this work, the current work is considered completed, because without tools, Chen Yuansheng can't dig holes with his hands.

It is impossible to be idle. Chen Yuansheng washed his hands, ate barbecue, and then began to arrange the next work.

Er Falcon continued to look east for a blacksmith's shop, to get some shovels, hoes, axes and other tools as soon as possible, and Chen Yuansheng still needed clothes. It was already summer, and the weather was getting hotter day by day.

This time Chen Yuansheng gave Er Falcon five small pieces of beast crystals and asked him to take them with him.

The dragon lizard and demon wolf can just look after the house, and hunt when appropriate to accumulate some meat.

Yao Tuo and Chen Yuansheng went to the desert to pull out the mutated plants, and ordered two sand wolves to follow them, and brought back the plucked mutated plants, one of which was Big Big Wolf.

The flat sand is vast and yellow reaches the sky.

Without a water bag, Chen Yuansheng did not dare to go even thirty miles away in the desert.

Fortunately, there are demon camels now, and the thirty to fifty miles of desert is as easy as playing.

The nearby vegetation is relatively large, and there is little pollution and mutation. Chen Yuansheng and the demon camel walked around for more than half an hour, and only pulled up five vegetation in total. The two sand wolves behind were already tired and stupid dogs, and they couldn't keep up with the demon camel's footsteps. .

"Let them go back. I will take you for a walk in the depths of the desert. If we encounter powerful monsters, we will run away. If they follow us, they will become a burden."

The demon camel made a suggestion.

Chen Yuansheng followed the example of kindness, and asked Big Big Wolf and the other two to drag the five big grass back with straw ropes, and specially warned: Do not let those antelopes and other herbivores eat them, they can only burn them.

When Big Big Wolf and the two left, the demon camel let go of its hooves and sprinted towards the depths of the desert.

…………

Huangqiao Town, an ancient town at the foot of the mountain, is named after the [-]-meter yellow bridge in the town.

It was past noon, and farmers carrying farm tools walked out of the town one after another and walked towards the fields.

Above the town, a big bird with a wingspan of more than two meters was hovering in the air. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer farmers in the town, the big bird swooped towards the blacksmith shop courtyard in the northeast corner of the town.

"Big bird, big bird, chicken thief, smash it."

In the yard, two strong men who were forging iron dropped their buddies, picked up stones and threw them at the big bird.

　Thank you to the boss of "Bi Wan Qinghong" for the reward, and I will continue to collect and promote it.
