The old things I repaired have become fine

Chapter 554: Yun Kun: Shen Le! One of my brothers is entangled by the Firebird!
【I need furniture! 】

【I need lots and lots of furniture! 】

【I want to fill every room! 】

The ancient house model was full of energy and kept making requests. Before Shen Le could say anything, his backpack became lighter and a silver light came out of the small oil lamp:
[Okay, okay! Is there a place to hang a lamp here? I want to find a place to hang it up! ]

The old house extended an eaves. The small oil lamp flew up and hung itself on the eaves. In an instant, the light shone brightly, illuminating the entire courtyard:

Its lighting efficiency is dozens of times higher than the moonlight pouring down from the sky and the palace lantern that once floated on the eaves.

Shen Leqing couldn't help but smile. The phone struggled slightly in his palm, and the pen holder jumped out. It fell to the ground and grew in the wind, turning into a one-meter-high prototype.

In the pen holder, the skirts could not wait to float out and wander around the yard:
【This place is so big! 】

[Yes, it's really comfortable! ]

Can we have a room here?

[One room is enough...]

Shen Le's feet shook violently, almost knocking him to the ground.

He lowered his waist and sat on the horse in time to maintain his balance. There was a crackling sound beside him, and a row of stone bricks jumped up and piled up on the ground, trying to support him:

[Sorry, sorry, I just wanted to say hello to them, but my movements were too big.] The bright girl apologized softly.

Shen Le turned his head to look at the row of bricks, then looked at the pillars that were so close that they were almost breaking free from the eaves, and silently took two steps:

"It's okay. Just put the bricks flat. I won't fall. Don't worry even if I do."

If it falls on the floor tiles, nothing will happen. On the contrary, if your stone tiles fall to the ground with a crash, it will be more troublesome for me to repair them!
The bricks slid to the side, one by one, and were laid flat again. Shen Le breathed a sigh of relief, put on a smile, and touched the nearest pillar:
"Hello, nice to introduce myself. My name is Shen Le, nice to meet you. - What should I call you?"

【I……】

The old house model suddenly got stuck. It seemed that for this little guy who had just developed a sense of self, "giving himself a name" was a little too much.

It was shaking so loudly that the tiles on the roof rustled, and Shen Le was frightened, fearing that a tile would fly down and hit him on the head.

After a while, it replied hesitantly:

[I don’t know… No one has ever given me a name… I…]

[Let Shen Le wake you up!] The small oil lamp crackled:
[My name was given to me by Shen Le! My name is Qing Deng! Isn’t it nice? ]

[And me! My name is Xiaoling! ]

[My name is Lan Zhuang...]

Shen Le smiled and listened. I didn't know if the model of the old house was listening or not, but it gradually became quiet, neither shaking nor trembling.

The little ones chattered away, sharing their experiences with their new friends and introducing themselves.

Some who wanted names had already been chosen by Shen Le; some were not particularly anxious to get a name, such as Hong Jiayi, who thought that "Jiayi" was a good name;
Some components have a strong sense of self-awareness and do not want to be named as a whole, such as the Luoquns, so Shen Le had no choice but to let them be;

Some, such as the pen holder, gave themselves a name, but the clay figurines inside the pen holder did not deserve a name. In this case, Shen Le acknowledged the pen holder's management authority over its subordinates and did not interfere...

Shen Le patiently listened to their conversation, letting the artifact spirits communicate on their own and letting the ancient house model gradually adapt. After a long time, the ancient house model whispered:
[How about... can you help me pick a name? I think my last name should be Huang, but I don't know what my name should be...]

The surname is Huang. Having a surname solves most of the problem. Shen Le thought and answered:

"It's like this. Your spirituality comes from the ancestral temple of the Ziyun Huang family. Let me check their generation names...

Well, the saying on the Internet is that our ancestors passed down the tradition of etiquette and cultivated the field of books for generations. The literature brought prosperity to the country, and loyalty and filial piety were passed down from generation to generation. The practice of new learning was enlightening, and the cultivation of virtue was strong..."

[I don’t want to use their generation names.] The ancient house model answered in a small but firm voice:
[I am not one of their people... I remember them, I have seen them for a long time, but I am not them... I don't want to use it! ]

"Okay, then don't use it." Shen Le agreed decisively:
"Well, do you remember Shanshan? Do you remember Azhen? Do you want to use their names as your name?"

After this question, the ancient house model fell silent instantly. It was silent for too long, so long that Shen Le thought its spirit had cried away. Then it whispered:
[I don’t want to use their names either. I remember them and like them, but they suffered so much—so, should I use the word “玉” and add another word?]

Ah, three words solve two problems. Shen Le felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was greatly lightened, and he answered happily:
"That's easy. You are a temple, a house. Your former purpose was to contain, cover, protect, and commemorate—

Huang Yutang? Huang Yuyu? Huang Yurong? Huang Yunian? "

He changed the words one by one and asked the other party to choose. The old house model was silent, as if it was thinking, or as if the meaning of these words was a little too difficult for it to understand.

The other little guys, on the other hand, tried their best to come up with ideas:
[Huang Yutang is not acceptable. There is a guy named Bai Yutang, whose nickname is not nice, Jinmaoshu - he is actually a rat! ]

[He died from being pierced by thousands of arrows! Deny! Deny! ]

[Huang Yuyu is not acceptable either! The two characters Yuyu are not comfortable to read together...]

[Huang Yurong is not good either...I accidentally heard it as Huang Rong...]

[I also don’t think Huang Yu-nian sounds good…]

Shen Le's head was buzzing with their noise. This is not okay, that is not okay, you only know how to deny, can you give some constructive suggestions?
Even help with the name!
The model of the old house seemed to be stunned by their noise. There was no sound for a long time. Only the long wind from the grassland blew through the grass, making a rustling sound on the walls.

The moon moved and the shadows moved. After a while, the model of the ancient house said softly:
[Then let’s put it this way… I was born in Citong City, so I’ll take the name of Citong City and give it to you. Huang Yutong… Huang Yuquan, which one sounds better?]

【Huang Yutong! 】

The little ones said in unison.

The ancient house model, no, Huang Yutong, gently shook his body, making a crisp sound of tiles colliding. Under the moonlight, the lines of the walls and eaves began to change rapidly:
It instantly grew a lot bigger, doubling its original size from the old house. Then, the wooden walls began to move, separating the different rooms:
[Don’t you want your own room? Go in and find it! ]

Choose whichever one you like!
The little guys cheered collectively. The little inkstone, with its tools, quickly went to the right side of the first entrance, the place that was once used as a school, and spread out its tools and refused to move away:
[This is it! This place is big, and there's a yard in front, which makes it convenient for me to work! If I need to bring in wood or take out furniture, it's closest to the door!]

Very good!
Very good!
In the past, when I went out to play with Shen Le, I couldn’t work; if I wanted to concentrate on work, I couldn’t play.

Now, everyone has their own room, so we can hang out together and go into our own rooms during rest time to do whatever we want!
The light flickered in front of me, and the small oil lamp slowly came down and hung on the eaves of the first entrance. It happily turned around, illuminating every inch of the land:
[Shen Le! Shen Le! Set up a main switch for me so that I can do maintenance easily! Oh, and find someone to run the wires for the house!]

"I……"

Shen Le rolled his eyes silently. Pull the wires, you say so, pull them, have others agreed? This old house is Huang Yutong's body, does it want to pull the wires, and does it want others to drill in and out of its body?

【Pull! Pull! Pull the wire! 】

Unexpectedly, the person who was most enthusiastic about pulling wires was Huang Yutong himself, no, this house.

It waved its long whiskers on the eaves and shouted in a clear and crisp voice:

[I want to pull wires! I want to install electrical appliances! I want to install fresh air and floor heating throughout the house! I also want to install a screening room to show movies every day!
——By the way, Shen Le, do you want me to set up a room for you to store your experimental equipment? 】

Shen Le: “…”

Thank you, no need. You can enlarge and reduce an old house, you can create one room after another, but you can't maintain a constant temperature and humidity?
Do you need to install fresh air and floor heating throughout the house?

[Of course I can maintain it! ] Huang Yutong snorted a little arrogantly:
[But it’s so tiring! Very tiring! With fresh air and floor heating installed, I can have a good rest and warm myself up!

——This place is cold and wet in the winter, and when a typhoon comes in the summer, my whole body is dripping with water. I must install floor heating to cool down! 】

Okay, okay, you have a point. Shen Le's requirements for his little ones have always been to satisfy them without limits within his ability.

His only concern is:
You have an old house, no, a model of an old house, filled with various electrical appliances. How do you plan to use electricity?
Should we put a row of diesel generators in the corridor guarding the house?

[Install! Install all! And we need to pull the network cable!] The small oil lamp immediately solved the power supply problem. It shouted louder than anyone else:

[Install whatever you want, I'll provide you with power! ——Shen Le, you can handle the power supply interface, right? ]

I'm not sure if I can do it, I'm only sure that I can get someone from the power company to do it -

No, the power supply bureau doesn't seem to be responsible for laying the wires in the house, that's the job of the decoration team. No matter what, for now, I can only pass the request to the Special Affairs Bureau...

The little guys were happy, and they walked around the mansion again and again, and each of them chose the residence they liked. Zhong Xiaomei and her subordinates occupied the entire left side of the house; the Buddha shrine and Luoqun chose a row of rooms on the third floor, which could guarantee each person (…) a room, and there was also a hall for group activities;

Xiao Ling chose the wing room on the left side of the second entrance, and hoped that a stage could be built on the back of the second entrance so that she could sing and dance in her spare time...

Shen Le: What about me?
And me?

To be honest, this empty house has no furniture, no mattress, sheets, curtains, pillows, and even no bathroom. It's totally not suitable for me to live here!
[Then just go buy it! Go hire someone to do the renovation! ]

The little ones urged in unison:

[What else! Do we still need to take action? ]

Shen Le: “…”

I know, I know, I know that in the end, all the work will be on me...

Gu Yulin: Isn't it on me? Contact the Special Affairs Bureau and find a piece of open space to enclose so that you can expand the ancient house, and then find a decoration team to help you decorate the house...

We also need to make sure the renovation team doesn’t get naughty and try to take anything out of a living old house. Also, don’t! urinate! In! The old house! Anywhere!

It's all his work!
However, I can only say thank God, Amitabha. Shen Le was finally willing to spend money, no, it should be said that the large amount of points he saved in the Special Affairs Bureau finally had a place to spend money.

Even if the amount is not large, it is still money! Fortunately, the points of the Special Affairs Bureau do not count as interest, otherwise, Shen Le’s spending speed cannot keep up with the speed of the points growth...

He racked his brains every day, trying to come up with more decoration plans to persuade Shen Le to spend more money. Buy home appliances!
Buy furniture!

What? Furniture and other things, Xiao Modou wants to make them by himself, then that’s fine…

Little Modou: All the work is obviously on me! All the furniture in this house has to be made bit by bit by me and everyone else!

Ah, happy~~~
Click, click, squeak, squeak. The little ink fountain is immersed in the joy of work and can't extricate himself. The only worry is:
[Yutong, your house is too small! When can you grow up a little more! ]

[I…I am like this now…]

The eaves were jingling, and Huang Yutong's voice sounded a little uneasy:
[I need to eat lots of wood...eat lots of soil...I need enough materials so that I can build enough houses...]

Got it, it requires spiritual wood and spiritual soil. Shen Le had no choice but to roll up his sleeves and go to the Yuhuan Secret Realm again:
"Come, I've already talked to the natives. They are willing to provide spiritual wood and spiritual soil. Open the door and let the clay figurines come out to move as much as you want!"

With a series of clicks, Huang Yutong opened all the empty rooms and even dropped a white silk ribbon from the beams...

"Ah, are you going to fill up the entire house, including the alley?!"

Fill it up if you want. For an island this big, the number of twigs that fall from the central giant tree every year can be considered endless.

Every time Shen Le came in, he would just sort out the vitality of the indigenous people, treat their diseases, and then patrol around to make sure that the world would not suddenly split apart anywhere.

After spending a day or two working, you can get a lot of gifts from them...

Huang Yutong filled up an alley, a side of the house, dozens of rooms and an entire courtyard, and began his retreat with satisfaction, slowly digesting what he had gained.

In the end, only the electrician sent by the Special Affairs Bureau was left, scratching his head:
"How do we solve the power supply problem for this house? Huh?! With such a large power consumption, we must have a dedicated line. Ordinary diesel generators can't supply it!
—Do you want me to install a power plant in it?"

The small oil lamp did generously agree to supply electricity. The problem is that the small oil lamp has a limited amount of storage capacity. If it is used to support the house's 24-hour floor heating, the price is that it will consume electricity once a week.

Not to mention that it requires the cooperation of the power supply bureau to consume electricity and a separate line needs to be opened for it. Just the fact that when it consumes electricity, the whole house will be without power, which is an unbearable burden for the ancient house!
[Maybe... it can be equipped with a miniature nuclear reactor? ]

When I called Yun Kun remotely, Yun Kun smiled and made suggestions. It even sent a video showing off its new reactor:

[Look! I installed one! It works great! Now my power is super strong! I can use the water shuttle twenty times in one breath, and I can shuttle back home from the south in one breath!]

As for the inner elixir, forget it. After the Dragon King helped seal it, Shen Le agreed with it to return it to the Fire Bird...

We can maintain a relatively good relationship, in exchange for it not attacking our country's ships, which is beneficial to everyone...

[I don't want it!] The whole house was shaken. Huang Yutong had been taught all kinds of modern knowledge by everyone these days, and he obviously had a certain understanding of the reactor:
[I don’t want something that scary! I can’t swallow something that scary! It will get stuck! It will prevent me from transforming!]

Not being able to transform or shrink is indeed a big problem. Huang Yutong has stayed in one place for hundreds of years. Now he just wants to travel around and doesn't want to take root in one fixed place.

Fortunately, the Special Affairs Bureau had already prepared a mature plan for power supply in some special places. Gu Yulin flipped through the booklet and came up with a new plan:
"I have a suggestion. The Special Affairs Bureau has a new power supply facility that uses spiritual jade to convert electrical energy. It is specifically used in some secret places deep in the mountains where it is inconvenient to lay wires..."

Strictly speaking, it was no longer a generator, but a device that combined a formation and a refiner. The method of use was very simple, just fill it with spirit jade, turn off the switch, and start supplying power.

It is often used in small secret cultivation areas, the caves of practitioners or monsters, which are relatively isolated from the world but still want to enjoy the convenience of modern life.

The advantages are small footprint, high power, cleanliness and no pollution. Just one device of less than one cubic meter can supply the entire cave.

If you want to heat the swimming pool every day, or plant dragon fruit with artificial lighting, the electricity is available.
The disadvantage is that the energy consumption is too expensive, and the production of spiritual jade is limited, so not everyone is willing to use it...

[I have Lingyu!] Yun Kun interrupted with a smile:
[I have a lot! The electricity generated by the reactor every day, which I can't use up, is all filled into spiritual jade! When I come back, I will give it to you! ]

[Thank you, I'll wait for you to come back.] Huang Yutong shook the iron horse in front of the eaves and answered timidly. Yun Kun shouted happily:

[You’re welcome! You’re welcome! Just remember to leave me a room! — Not now, wait until you’ve swallowed enough and grown big enough, then leave me a pool! ]

Shen Le laughed out loud. Yun Kun was also a member of the family. No matter how big it was or how much land it occupied, it still required its own territory at home!
If the conditions are not sufficient, the pool can be smaller. If the conditions are sufficient, a big pool is needed!
[I understand... I will try to grow up a little... You... Please come back slowly! ]

Is there a possibility that you should look forward to Yun Kun's quick return so that your wish of powering the whole house can be properly achieved?

Unfortunately, Yun Kun was still on a mission offshore and would not be back soon. Shen Le could only focus on Huang Yutong, helping her design and select furniture styles, and helping her choose and purchase soft furnishings:
"Is it okay to use Chinese-style furniture in the main hall? - Don't like it? Want a set of Western-style leather sofas? No problem!"

"What about the side hall next door? Oh, make it into a private cinema. Let me see. Hang a projection screen on the wall and put a set of speakers underneath..."

"The right side is going to be turned into a gym? Sister, I really call you sister, who would use it if it were turned into a gym? Anyway, I won't use it. Look at this family of so many people, who would want to use it?"

[No matter what! I have to go to the gym! I have to! Girls should also work hard to keep fit. Only by controlling your body can you control your destiny! Shanshan, Azhen, if they can fight better, maybe, maybe this won’t happen…]

All right, the gym is the gym. Shen Le opened another Taobao page and added it to the shopping cart:

The floor needs to be padded with special hard mats to be able to bear weight and hold the fitness equipment;
We need gantry, barbell, treadmill, elliptical machine, all kinds of equipment of different sizes;
A bathroom needs to be specially built next to the gym, but whether it can be used is another matter;
Oh, and I'll install a wall of mirrors on the wall...

"Do you want a yoga room? A separate room? No problem!" Okay, add a yoga ball, yoga bricks, and a yoga mat...

"Can I use curtains with large green flowers for this room?"

"Don't like it? How about this sapphire blue one with stars?"

"You want a solid cream yellow? No problem! Buy it, buy it, buy it!"

"How about a four-poster bed? -- No? Want a modern large bed with a Simmons mattress? No problem!

Let's see which mattress is better! A mattress that costs two million is not worth it, but a mattress that costs twenty thousand is not something you can just buy casually, right? "

With a bang, a pillow suddenly flew up and hit Shen Le on the forehead. Shen Le tilted his head and pressed the pillow, listening blankly:

"What's going on?... Ah, there's no mattress worth two million, only twenty or thirty thousand. Is the two million a smear campaign by her ex-mother-in-law? Okay, okay, I really don't care about these celebrity affairs..."

Shen Le would buy whatever Huang Yutong said, holding his phone and turning on his computer, and just signed the orders without thinking.

Huang Yutong has probably been using the ancestral hall for too long and is very averse to a spacious main hall. He insists on dividing each room into a functional house.

It took two months of hard work to complete both the hard and soft furnishings. Huang Yutong also digested the spiritual wood and soil, and could make the house bigger or smaller at will.

Once the spiritual jade is in place, you can activate the spiritual energy generator and leave the place to travel around:

[So where is Yun Kun? When will Yun Kun come back? ]

"I don't know... The last time we contacted, Yun Kun said he would be back this week, so why is there still no news..."

Shen Le continued to flip through the web pages, muttering to himself, looking for the flowers and plants Huang Yutong wanted. Before he had turned a few pages, Yun Kun called him urgently:

[Shen Le! Shen Le, help! One of my brothers is being harassed by the Firebird! Can you come over and help me fight that Firebird?]
