The old things I repaired have become fine

Chapter 487: Yun Kun: Shen Le! They bullied me! They beat me! You have to avenge me!
Shen Le looked up blankly, his whole body frozen in the cave. To his left and right, a group of people were in the same position as him, dumbfounded:
What about the murals?
Where are the murals?!

The mural fell down, falling down, emitting thousands of rays of light. They rushed to help, trying hard to catch the fallen painting.

If they have more time, they can also pull up the tent cloth, pull up the anti-collision net, or at least pull up the sleeping bags, moisture-proof mats or something to provide some cushion.

However, now that the incident happened suddenly, everyone could only do the same as Shen Le, making a very stupid pose, stretching their hands as far as possible, and using their arms and chests to receive -

Then, I watched helplessly as the huge mural shrank smaller and smaller until it disappeared...

If an ordinary person saw this, they would definitely scream and shout, or even jump down and feel around for a while, trying to feel the debris on the ground.

However, everyone present was from the Special Affairs Bureau and had some knowledge of various abnormal situations. So, after a moment of surprise, the captain made a few gestures and the team members each took up their duties:

Someone quietly stepped forward, approached Shen Le, and observed his face, breathing, and movements, to immediately determine whether he was okay;

Someone held up a flashlight and shone it all over the cave to see if there was anything unusual in the cave. Of course, they could also look for fragments of murals.

Others were scattered around, paying attention to the entrance and exit of the cave, and the river at the edge of the cave, keeping alert at all times to prevent something from coming out...

The captain scanned the entire cave and saw nothing unusual. The team members were busy with their own things. He breathed a sigh of relief, walked lightly, and headed in the direction of Shen Le.

After taking a few steps, he saw a figure quickly moving in front of him, taking off something as he walked.

Looking closely, it turned out to be the female member of the local Special Affairs Bureau. She quickly unrolled a roll of moisture-proof mat, bent down, and carefully laid it behind Shen Le. Then she turned around and smiled at him:
Well, the girl is indeed attentive. The captain smiled back, gave her a thumbs up, and nodded:

With this moisture-proof mat, Mr. Shen would be much more comfortable if he wanted to sit down or something. As for why they didn't think of it:

Maybe these grown men work roughly, so a flat surface is enough for them to meditate, and they don’t really need a cushion or a mat in daily life?
Or maybe, they don’t meditate much on a normal day, and only rely on sleep and medication to recover?
Just as he finished thinking this, there was a "thump" in front of him, and Shen Le fell down. He clasped his hands in front of him, his body straight and his neck straight, motionless, obviously really entered the state of meditation.

Tsk, if I hadn’t put a moisture-proof mat under it, just from this sound, my coccyx would have been fractured at least, right?

While the captain was thinking, he made gestures, signaling the team members to surround Shen Le and be on guard and protect him to prevent him from being disturbed by anything.

I quietly walked forward to take a look. Before I arrived, I saw that the team member who first observed Shen Le was full of surprise. He winked and gestured at him, pointing at Shen Le's hand:
what?
What's so strange?
The captain quickened his pace, passed over Shen Le's head, and stretched his head to look. When he lowered his eyes, he saw Shen Le holding a crystal clear jade in his hands:

The jade was only three inches long and two inches wide, and its texture was so thin that it would shatter if it was touched slightly or accidentally hit anywhere.

The color of the jade is like solidified fat, and it is extremely delicate. The patterns on the surface are as small as ants, and very detailed. If you look closely, it is exactly the pattern on the mural before...

However, how could such a huge mural and such a huge rock wall suddenly turn into this small piece of jade?
The captain couldn't figure it out, and neither could Shen Le. He lowered his eyes, sat cross-legged, and immersed himself in the jade, or rather, in the connection between the jade and the bronze medal:

Hundreds of lines flew out of the entire copper seal, each one connected with the pattern on the jade.

The front of the jade stone accepted the lines passed by the bronze seal, while the back side unfolded countless root-like existences, extending outward.

Into the air, into the soil, into the water flowing on the side of the cave, into all the components of the entire cave...

It greedily absorbs all the strength, stores it in its body, and refuses to relax even a little bit.

Shen Le activated the talisman, attracting the surrounding earth power. It swallowed up as much as it was sucked in. It felt like a bottomless pit.

The most amazing thing is that no matter how much earth power it swallowed, it had no intention of growing larger or heavier. Instead, its surface became more delicate and translucent...

"So this is how you started out?"

Shen Le carefully rubbed it with the side of his thumb and continued to meditate. The jade piece did not shine or make any sound, pretending to be just an ordinary piece of jade.

However, Shen Le knew exactly what was going on:
When the rock wall collapsed just now, he was anxious and tried his best to pour all the earth and energy he could gather into the rock wall.

At that time, I just wanted to make it stronger, so that even if it fell down or fell, it would not break all at once, and at least there would be some chance of recovery;

However, the moment the rock wall fell and touched his palm, it suddenly began to absorb power on a large scale.

It sucked quickly and greedily. If it wasn't a flat plate, it would have grown a mouth on it and held Shen Le's entire hand in it. Even so, a vortex suddenly opened up on the surface of the rock wall:
It expanded and contracted, expanded and contracted, and he used all his strength to roll it inward, using up all his might.

This was not enough. The entire rock wall suddenly shrank, getting smaller and smaller. It looked like it wanted to stick its entire body in Shen Le's hand, not letting go of any energy.

By the time Shen Le came to his senses, it had shrunk from a two-meter-high and three-meter-wide rock slab to a two-inch-wide and three-inch-long one, shrinking a hundred times...

"This is also good. It's convenient to take away." Shen Le thought dimly, and began to meditate hard, mobilizing his strength to feed the mural.

It can be big or small, that would be great. If it could control the clay sculpture team and make them shrink a hundred times—

Then he can find a bookcase, or a horizontal glass display cabinet one or two meters long, to put the clay sculptures away and place them properly in the studio!
Unlike now, when the clay sculptures are placed like this, there is no place to rest in the entire studio. After finishing the work, he has to walk around the mansion and make two separate rooms for them...

His mental power stretched out, spreading to the top of the cave, spreading to the deep bottom of the cave, and then extending all the way inside along the water veins.

All around, the Special Affairs Bureau's operatives gestured to each other and quietly retreated. After setting up a layer of security around Shen Le, they were busy with their own things, their hands and feet were constantly moving:

"The spiritual energy index here is obviously higher than that of the outside world!"

"The Yin Qi index is significantly higher than the reference value!"

"Water body measurement, the Yin Qi index is slightly high..."

"Rock wall sampling..."

"Moss sampling..."

"Don't limit yourself to this place. Mr. Shen just cast a spell here, which may have caused the spiritual energy index to be abnormally high... Go a little further, visit a few more caves, and see if there are similar situations in the surrounding caves..."

Shen Le was in a trance, as if he heard their conversation, but also as if he didn't hear it. It doesn't matter, this cave was originally provided to the Special Affairs Bureau, they can do whatever they want with it;

As for him now, as long as he can bring the jade piece back, he will have made a profit, and nothing else matters!

Shen Le tried his best to use his internal energy, wishing he could pack up all the energy in the entire cave and the ten kilometers around the cave and take it away to nourish the newly acquired jade piece.

As energy was injected into it, the entire piece of jade became more and more delicate, and the patterns became more and more vivid. Suddenly, Shen Le felt a shock in his mental power, as if he had encountered an extremely heavy existence:

It is majestic, powerful, calm and solid. It seems that for thousands of years, all kinds of wind and rain will not cause any damage to it, or only hurt the surface.
It has always been overlooking the human world, and has also always been supporting the human world. It is both sacred and majestic, inviolable, and yet it is also broad-minded and compassionate, nurturing all the people.

Thousands of years passed, and its spirit gradually fell asleep. However, it was just sleeping, not weakening, and certainly not disappearing...

Shen Le just touched this power and was thrown back directly. It was as if there was a warm embrace, holding him in its arms and hugging him, and then gently pushing him out.

The giant's strength was such that a slight push could push him thousands of miles away;

His whole body trembled, and he suddenly woke up. He opened his eyes, looked around, and stood up holding the jade piece:
"This is……"

"Mr. Shen, are you awake?"

A row of hurried footsteps came towards him. Yan Xijia and the captain of the support team, a man and a woman, asked at the same time. Shen Le took a deep breath and smiled at them:
"Well, I've finished meditating. Everything is fine, as good as it can be - by the way, how long have I been meditating?"

"12 hours."

"11 hours and 38 minutes."

The two voices answered. Shen Le hissed:
"It's been so long... I'm so sorry to have troubled you for so long..."

"It's okay, it's okay. This is what we should do." Yan Xijia smiled and shook her hand, then turned and left immediately.

The captain smiled at Shen Le, held his hand and shook it hard:
"Besides, we also want to thank you for helping us find such a great place. There are so many good things in it!"

The Special Affairs Bureau did not do nothing during these 12 hours. They carefully explored the cave and found a kind of moss rich in Yin energy on the cave wall, which can be used to make medicine;
In the undercurrent of the cave, I caught a small fish that was transparent and even had degenerate eyes. Its bones and flesh were rich in spiritual energy.

As for further exploration, we have to wait for more manpower to arrive. However, even with this little achievement, the local special affairs bureau has made a small fortune:
These days, it is so lucky to have a place fall from the sky that is rich in spiritual energy, where one can meditate, improve strength, and produce!
Even if this place cannot be compared to a small secret realm, it can be considered a small spiritual realm!

"By the way, Mr. Shen, do you want to take this mural away? - Will the environment here change after the mural is taken away?"

Yan Xijia smiled and brought a thermos bucket over and placed it in front of Shen Le. As soon as the lid of the bucket was opened, the aroma of porridge, rice, eggs, and meat mixed together and flew directly to Shen Le's face:

It was a bowl of egg and minced pork porridge that she had prepared long ago. She kept it in a thermos bucket for fear that it would get cold, so Shen Le could have it anytime he wanted after finishing his meditation.

Shen Le took a deep breath and suddenly felt his stomach growling. He nodded gratefully to the long-legged girl and took the spoon:
"It must be taken away. This is part of the object I am repairing. I found this place based on their guidance. As for the environment..."

The environment will probably change, right?
Without a spiritual object, without its function of constantly gathering Yin Qi, constantly absorbing and exhaling Yin Qi, and creating a nurturing environment for clay sculptures, the environment here will probably gradually degenerate... unless...

"I'll fix the environment here, and it should be able to last for a few decades." Shen Le pondered. I've decided. I'll bring the inkstone again when I get back, and let him help me draw the lines. I'll also bring a bag of pearls and make a small spirit gathering array here.

The scale doesn't need to be too big, it just needs to be equal to the original. If it's too big, it's not good. The yin energy will be too strong and it may gather some bad things...

Shen Le quickly finished a bucket of porridge and patted his stomach comfortably. He entered into meditation again, trying to touch the jade piece to understand the meaning of its existence and its function.

After a moment, he frowned slightly:

"It seems... it doesn't work here... I have to go back and be among the clay sculptures..."

In this case, there is not much use in staying in the cave. Shen Le said goodbye to the people from the Special Affairs Bureau, flew out of the cave, and returned home.

He held the jade piece in his arms and had just come to the clay sculpture when a wave of movement surged in front of him:
【coming! 】

【I'm coming! 】

【came back!】

[It’s getting better… It’s finally getting better…]

The clay sculptures clattered and turned to look at Shen Le. Before Shen Le could react, the jade token glowed on its own, casting a light on each clay sculpture:
In an instant, all the clay sculptures underwent subtle changes. The clay became more compact, and the surface became more delicate and smooth;

The expressions of the clay sculptures are more lively, especially the eyes, which seem to come alive:
Some were happy, some were worried, some were staring at the things in the dressing box, drooling a little, and some were looking at the generals in the team, shrinking with a little fear:
Is this a clay sculpture?

Are these really clay sculptures?
They can't all be alive now, right?

Not only that, the earth energy, yin energy, and various energies that had been absorbed by the jade token also sprinkled on each clay sculpture like a sweet rain. Shen Le had a vague feeling:
Even if I don't repair them myself, even if they are missing limbs, or bumped here and there, they can still be repaired with the jade tablet.

Perhaps, this is the reason why the clay sculptures have been wandering around for so many years, carrying sedan chairs all over the mountains and plains, and have not yet collapsed?
That’s great… there’s an automatic repair machine!
With this jade plate, he feels that he doesn’t even need to do anything, these clay sculptures can protect themselves!
In his joy, he poured his heat into the jade token, and at the same time, he slightly increased the force of his fingertips rubbing against the edge of the jade token.

In just this moment, the two clay sculptures on the edge emitted waves of fear:
【don't want! 】

Huh?
What not to do?
Shen Le turned his head quickly. At the edge of the team, there were two clay sculptures of drummers. One of them was holding a trumpet that was a little deformed, as if it had been pinched by something.
The other one had cinnabar makeup on his face that had become blurred, and his nose and chin were all crooked.

Shen Le subconsciously lowered his head and saw the jade token in his hand. The two little people drawn on it were slightly blurred due to being rubbed...

"Ah...will this happen again?"

So, if I wipe off the little man on the jade plaque, the clay sculpture will also be ruined?
If I break this jade token, will the entire clay sculpture group be unlucky, or even lose their spirituality?
Shen Le meditated carefully for a while, and indeed felt countless thin threads coming out of the entire jade plate, connecting to each clay sculpture. He raised the jade plate high and waved it at the clay sculptures:

"So, you all have to behave yourself from now on! Listen to me! If you don't listen to me, humph!!!"

There was a rustling sound. It was as if all the clay sculptures were collectively bowing to him, expressing their submission and obedience. Shen Le nodded with satisfaction, then found a place to sit down and injected heat into the jade token:

"Okay, let's fix it. From now on, as long as you are obedient, I won't make any trouble, don't worry!"

The heat flowed everywhere, and the blurred lines of the little man on the jade plaque gradually became clear and straightened. Looking up again, the two crooked trumpeters also returned to their original appearance:

Very good. From now on I will no longer be afraid of these clay sculptures carrying me somewhere in the middle of the night.

Even better, if you communicate well with them and teach them how to find their way, they can go wherever they want...

"By the way, can you become smaller?" Shen Le waved the jade token and the bronze seal at the clay sculptures. After a moment of silence, a slight wave came from the jade token:

[No... that's something else...]

"What else?"

[Others... can pack them up... but I can't...]

Shen Le communicated patiently for a long time before he found out that there was a magical item in the dressing box that could make all the clay sculptures extremely small and hold them all inside.

This strange object is not big, and it does not look out of place even in a bride's bedroom. When it is needed, it can be taken out and used at any time:

"So what is this? Where is it?"

【there is none left……】

[Lost…]

【have no idea……】

A mess of waves answered him at the same time. Alas, something that has been lost for decades must be found by all means, even abroad.

Where on earth is he going to find something that has been lost for eight hundred or a thousand years?
Shen Le sighed and was about to repeat his old trick to trigger another resonance and look for the strange object. Before he could enter into meditation, there was a splash of water, and then the whole mansion almost exploded with noise:

[Shen Le! Shen Le! Shen Le!!!]

First, there was a little guy crying, then three or four of them cried together, and then there was a noisy crowd of people shouting.

Shen Le listened for a moment, put down the jade piece, rushed out of the room and ran to the east road next door:

"What's wrong? Yun Kun? Yun Kun, what are you doing?!"

A large boat was lying across the center of the lotus pond, with its head resting on one edge and its tail resting on the other edge.

The deck was shaking slightly, and people were constantly being "spitted out" and thrown to the shore.

Everyone thrown onto the shore first fell to the ground, then vomited loudly, and when they felt better, they stood up and rushed to the cabin:
"Instruments! My instruments! My data!!!"

"Wait, wait!" Shen Le rushed over to stop them. He pointed his finger, and the grass sprouts on the ground grew rapidly, stretching out thousands of fine threads, stopping them there.

Then he leaped up onto the deck himself:
"Yun Kun, what's wrong?"

[Get out of the way first! ]

Yun Kun yelled and continued to spit out people. First people, then things, large and small, hundreds of boxes piled up on the shore, occupying all the flat land in the garden.

Then, Yun Kun quickly shrank into a 30-centimeter-long boat and flew directly into Shen Le's hand:

[Shen Le! They bullied me! They beat me! You have to avenge me! ]

Shen Le narrowed his eyes and instantly stared at the scars on Yun Kun's body. Yun Kun didn't show the injured side to him just now, so he didn't see it;

However, now, there was a charred hole on the edge of the ship's side, occupying almost 1/3 of the ship's side.

Although the hole was not deep, the spiritual energy on the surface was flickering. Up to now, a large amount of spiritual energy was still gathered on it, as if trying to resist damage:
It is conceivable that if Yun Kun did not transfer all his strength at the moment the damage was initiated, it might not be just a matter of breaking a few wooden boards.

The entire ship would break in two, and as for the researchers, operators, and little guys in the cabin...

"Who is it?" He stretched out his hand and pressed the hole in the side of the boat, trying to inject heat into it to help Yun Kun recover quickly. While giving strength, he slowly asked:
"Who bullied you? Who beat you? How many people were there?"

[It's the Japanese pirates!] Yun Kun gritted his teeth:
[They were all pirates! I don't know how many there were - but I saw the flag! I dived! I hid! They beat me! They dropped depth charges on me!]

Shen Le raised his eyebrows. He turned his head and looked at the group of people thrown out by the small wooden boat. The researchers seemed to have calmed down a bit, and the operatives had finished their phone calls and hurried over to explain:

"Mr. Shen, during our surveying, we encountered a submarine from Xiaori. It was really a sudden encounter—

They suddenly launched a torpedo, Yun Kun shrank and dived to avoid it, but they still refused to give in and dropped depth charges..."

If Yun Kun had activated the water vein stealth function immediately, he would have been able to escape.

The problem was that there were two of them working outside the cabin at the time, and Yun Kun was a little slow in order to pick up the researcher...

With just this little bit, Yun Kun avoided the torpedo but not the bomb and was burned.

Fortunately, it had already started to shrink by then, and it quickly dived down and entered the water vein. In an emergency, it did not consider returning to the military port or anything, and plunged back...

"I won't ask you what mission you were on or where you were bombed." Shen Le's face was solemn as he gently stroked the side of the Yun Kun.
"Which submarine was the cause of the explosion? Where is its home port? Can this be found out?"

"This...Mr. Shen, please calm down!!!"
