I manifested the Shushan game
Chapter 194 This stone tablet is pretty amazing!
Chapter 194 This stone tablet is pretty amazing!
Chen Han was subconsciously drawn to Chen Kai and looked over at him.
The two characters on the stone tablet caught his attention, making him look incredulous.
No way?
Chen Kai hung up the phone and immediately said, "Patriarch Chen, a stone tablet was unearthed during road construction. It looks quite old, with some characters and runes on it. The person in charge can't understand the characters and runes, only the two characters 'Chen'."
Upon hearing this, Chu Ping seemed to realize something and subconsciously asked, "Is it the stone slab we saw when we came here?"
Chen Kai nodded and said, "It should be that stone slab. It seems to be related to the Chen family and has something recorded on it. It might even let us know some things about the Chen family in the past."
These words immediately piqued Chu Ping's interest, and he promptly invited Chen Han, "Patriarch Chen, let's go take a look together. This stone tablet clearly belongs to the Chen family, and we might have to return it to its rightful owner."
"Yes!" Chen Han nodded. He wanted to confirm whether it was as he had guessed, and whether he had followed Chu Ping and Chen Kai out of the courtyard.
After getting in the car, Chu Ping told the driver to drive quickly and leave Shangyuan Village.
...
The road from the county town to the Chen family had already been under construction, and Zhang Xiao, as the person in charge of the contract, was very dedicated and responsible.
He knew that the county attached great importance to the Chen family. Just seeing that the Chen family had sold more than 5000 tickets for this national style event, he knew that if there were any problems with the road widening and repair, he would definitely be in trouble.
So he would come over from time to time to check on the road construction progress, and who knew that a stone tablet would be unearthed today.
At first, it was all covered in mud, and I thought it was a whole rock. But when I looked closely, I found that there were words on it.
Have someone rinse it with water; this is a stone tablet.
He couldn't understand the characters and symbols on the stone tablet at all; he only recognized the two characters "Chen Shi".
Because his wife's surname is Chen, there are ancient Chinese characters for "Chen" on the walls of her family home. He can see and recognize these two characters every time he visits her family home.
Therefore, without any hesitation, he immediately had someone carry the stone tablet to a safe place and notified Chen* from the cultural and tourism department.
After that, he personally led a group to guard it.
Finally, seeing the car approaching, he immediately led his men to greet it.
Chen Kai got out of the car and immediately looked at Zhang Xiao, asking, "Mr. Zhang, where is the stone tablet?"
"Chen*, over here." Zhang Xiao was about to lead his men when he saw Chu Ping coming down, and immediately said, "Chu*, this way please."
He naturally recognized this person. He never expected that digging up a stone tablet would attract this person. It seems that his call to report this time was correct.
Upon seeing Chen Han behind him, he greeted him again: "Patriarch Chen!"
Chen Han nodded in response, and then followed along. They saw the stone tablet, which was about 2 meters high and about 1 meter wide.
The monument is now covered in mud.
Zhang Xiao explained, "I don't know what happened to this stone tablet, and I didn't dare to deal with it myself, so I just rinsed it with water."
Chu Ping and Chen Kai naturally didn't understand this, and they both looked at Chen Han.
"Patriarch Chen, take a look!"
"Yes, we don't understand either."
Chen Han had been curious for a while and had already gone forward to check.
The stone tablet still uses the same ancient Taoist script as the book "Ancient Tranquility Manual".
There weren't many words, but he happened to see three very prominent characters on the stone tablet: Dust Removal Array!
He was genuinely surprised.
He had previously thought that Chen had deducted his reward and was even considering complaining about the game system. Now, should he withdraw his complaint against the game system?
The other party actually distributed this in a different way?
Moreover, he remembered the game hints from before: when the Hundred Flowers Palace was transporting the Dust Removal Array Stele, it was intercepted and killed by demonic cultivators. The people of the Hundred Flowers Palace were killed, and the stele fell to the ground and plunged into the earth.
The stone tablet was dug up by the road construction team.
I have to admit, the game system is pretty amazing; it even corresponds to this.
"Patriarch Chen, how is it?" Chen Kai asked subconsciously.
Chen Han nodded and said, "It is related to the Chen family. Please help send this stone tablet back to the Chen family. After cleaning it up, we'll check on its condition."
Although they already knew what was going on, they still had to put on an act in front of these people. Besides, there was no way to take the stone tablet back to the game system, so they could only ask others for help.
Without hesitation, Chen Kai instructed Zhang Xiao, "Mr. Zhang, could you please arrange for someone to transport it?"
"Director Chen, I'll make the arrangements." Zhang Xiao immediately nodded and started making arrangements. Before long, the stone tablet was lifted onto a truck, secured, and then transported to the Chen family.
Chu Ping then led his men back into the car and drove towards the Chen family's residence.
Chen Han had already called Uncle Big Dog and asked him to bring people to prepare to move the stone tablet to his yard later.
When the truck arrived at Chen's parking lot, Chen Dagou and his men were already waiting. All the tools were ready, and as soon as the truck stopped, they started lifting the stone tablet.
Chen Han also led Chu Ping and Chen Kai back to his own courtyard, while Chen Dagou and his men carried the stone tablet behind them, attracting a lot of attention.
After all, the stone tablet looked like it had just been unearthed, and there were words on it, so it might record something about the Chen family.
Once in the yard, Chen Han asked Uncle Big Dog to prepare soft tools, such as wool brushes, paintbrushes (various sizes), soft-bristled brushes, bamboo scrapers, and so on. The scrapers also needed to have their edges polished smooth to avoid being sharp.
Now that this stone tablet has appeared in this way, it is natural to first clean off the surface soil.
This stone tablet was sent by the Hundred Flowers Palace, so it's just for show. It won't be as easily damaged as a newly unearthed stone tablet, and you'll have to be very careful when cleaning the dirt off it.
Chen Dagou quickly found all the tools Chen Han needed, and Chen Han also took the water hose from the yard and started splashing water on the stone tablet to clean it.
He found out it was true after cleaning for a short while.
The stone tablet given by the Hundred Flowers Palace was not so fragile, after all, it carried a dust-removing array. However, the array seemed to be malfunctioning, as he could not sense any fluctuations from it.
However, let's put on a show first, and clear the stone tablet out in front of Chu* and the others. Chu Ping and Chen Kai watched the Chen family head's actions and felt that his method of handling the stone tablet was somewhat rough and violent. They had seen videos of historians handling unearthed stone tablets.
However, they didn't understand these things, and since the item belonged to the Chen family, they could only watch as the other party handled it.
After some time, Chen Han had completely cleaned the stone tablet, making the ancient characters and runes on it clearly visible.
The number of ancient characters is actually not large; there are more symbols and patterns, and they don't recognize any of those ancient characters.
Chu Ping asked curiously, "Patriarch Chen, what is written on this stone tablet?"
Chen Han spoke the truth: "The stone tablet says that it was given to the Chen family by a force called the Hundred Flowers Palace. It contains an array called the Dust Removal Array."
"Hundred Flowers Palace?" Chu Ping was taken aback, because he remembered that the name Hundred Flowers Palace had appeared more than once in the videos of the Chen family head.
Chen Han understood what he meant and made up a story: "The Hundred Flowers Palace in my video was made up. It has nothing to do with the Hundred Flowers Palace mentioned on this stone tablet. I really didn't expect there to be a real Hundred Flowers Palace that sent things to the Chen family."
Chu Ping and Chen Han subconsciously looked at Chen Han, unsure whether what he said was true or false.
You casually mentioned a Hundred Flowers Palace, and it turns out there really was a Hundred Flowers Palace that gave the Chen family a stone tablet with some kind of formation engraved on it.
Is there such a coincidence?
Then, Chu Ping realized what was happening and asked, "Patriarch Chen, you just mentioned a dust-removing array, what is that?"
Chen Han had no idea that he hadn't added the stone tablet to his game inventory yet, hadn't seen the notes, and didn't understand anything about it.
Therefore, he could only continue to make up stories, saying, "This should be the formation stone tablet in the Taoist legend. As long as this stone tablet is erected in a special place through a special ceremony, it will have a special effect on the surrounding environment and exhibit very mysterious and magical abilities."
"You two have seen some movies, right? There's a stone tablet standing there, and then the scenes that appear inside are completely different, something like that."
Although he made this up, he knew that the dust-removing array on the stone tablet given by the Hundred Flowers Palace must have special effects, so it wasn't entirely made up.
Chu Ping and Chen Kai were taken aback when they heard this. They had naturally seen this kind of movie and TV show, such as Zhuge Liang's Stone Formation, which looked ordinary from the outside, but was filled with smoke when you went inside.
Now, this stone tablet, erected in a special location through a special ceremony, will have this effect.
"Patriarch Chen, does such a thing really exist?" Chu Ping couldn't help but ask.
Seeing his expectant gaze, Chen Han immediately said righteously, "How could that be? Those are just Taoist legends. If they were really that magical, why can't we see them in the Xuanmen sects?"
"Therefore, this proves that the legend of this array stone tablet is also nonsense. Leaders, we live in modern society now, we should believe in science."
"Do you two leaders not believe in science?"
"..." Chu Ping.
"..." Chen Kai.
Both of them were instantly silenced. Did they dare to say they didn't believe him?
Their identities must be based on science.
Suddenly, they felt a deep sense of powerlessness, as if the Chen family head was digging a pit right in front of them, and they were completely powerless to do anything about it.
The key point is that while the head of the Chen family was showing off some unscientific things, he was also trying to force scientific explanations into their minds.
Indeed, their social standing and position rendered them incapable of debating with the Chen family head, leaving them only able to watch as he delivered a "believe in science" argument that repeatedly crushed them.
Chu Ping coughed and said, "Patriarch Chen, we naturally believe in science, but now that we've got this stone tablet, what's wrong with finding a spot and holding a ceremony? What if...?"
Then he added, "Well, I believe in science. I mean... we can erect a monument and make up a story, which might give tourists another place to visit."
Chen Kai and Chu* were now working together seamlessly, and Chen Kai immediately understood his leader's meaning. He said, "Yes, Patriarch Chen, we all believe in science, but wouldn't it be alright to find a location, hold a ceremony, and erect a monument?"
They kept saying they believed in science, but their words were full of hidden meanings. They went to great lengths to persuade the Chen family head to give it a try.
However, as Chu* said, erecting a monument and making up a story would indeed give tourists another place to visit, especially since the Hundred Flowers Palace originally appeared in the video of the Chen family head.
It's remarkable that this stone tablet is used by tourists as a source of amusement; it still serves its purpose.
But what if?
That legend...
Chen Han understood what the two meant, smiled and said, "Then let's give it a try. However, I need to find some relevant ancient books and check the information first, otherwise I won't know how to do it."
Naturally, the most important thing to do when adding something to your game inventory is to check the notes.
Chu Ping and Chen Kai breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that he had agreed to give it a try. After chatting with the Chen family head for a few more minutes, they left with their men so as not to disturb the Chen family head's investigation.
It wasn't until they left the Chen family's residence that the two realized something was wrong.
In that conversation just now, their positions relative to Patriarch Chen seemed to have reversed. Patriarch Chen firmly believed in science, while they...
The two exchanged a glance, smiled helplessly, and then got into the car.
After the car drove off, Chu Ping couldn't help but instruct, "Chen*, when we get back, check the records to see if there are any mentions of the Hundred Flowers Palace in those ancient documents."
"Hmm." Chen Kai nodded. It was time to investigate.
The sudden appearance of the Hundred Flowers Palace also greatly surprised Ye.
……
Chen family.
Chen Han put away all the tools in the yard. After the people from the county left, he instructed Chen Dagou, "Uncle Dagou, there's nothing else here. Now, take some people to help your uncle with the planting of viburnum trees and other flowering plants. We need to plant quite a few in the next couple of days."
Since this stone tablet happened to appear, he thought that the effects of the Hundred Flowers Dew Talisman could also be applied to the stone tablet.
Having received the order, Chen Dagou naturally nodded and led his men to find Chen Lin.
After everyone in the courtyard had left, Chen Han touched the stone tablet, stored it in his game inventory, and saw the tablet's notes:
【Array Stone Tablet (Dust Removal Array): This is an auxiliary array crafted by the Hundred Flowers Palace. It can purify the air and prevent pollution. By setting up the Dust Removal Array, the Hundred Flowers Palace can keep the air within the sect clean at all times.
Special effects: 1. After this monument is erected, it will provide a special air purification effect of +1 within the sect's territory. 2. The purified air will spread outward from the sect's territory, covering an area of 30 square kilometers. The effect weakens with distance.
Triggering conditions: 1. Requires using true qi to trigger the dust-removing array patterns on the stone tablet. 2. Requires a special Taoist ritual at a specific location to communicate with the surrounding environment for it to take effect. The specific locations are marked.
Upon seeing the notes on the stone tablet, Chen Han could only conclude that the effect was certainly no worse than what he had previously made up.
