I manifested the Shushan game

Chapter 78: Have the demonic cultivators and the dog demons formed an alliance?

"Patriarch Chen, you're not joking?" Xiao Kang couldn't help but ask.

"Go ahead and smash it, don't hold back!" Chen Han nodded with a smile.

With the master's approval, Xiao Kang didn't hesitate any longer. He took the hammer, prepared himself, and smashed it against the wall with all his might.

He still has strength; his full-force smash is definitely much stronger than that of the master who could smash 50 times with one blow.

Bang!
The hammer collided with the wall instantly.

In that instant, Xiao Kang felt a sudden numbness in his arm, as if struck by the recoil. He stared in disbelief at the spot where the hammer had struck, exclaiming, "Holy crap..."

His full-force strike only left a tiny mark, not even completely breaking the skin.

Chen Kai and the others stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

With such a loud noise, Xiao Kang clearly used a lot of force; it was incredible...

"I'll give it a try." Chen Kai said, taking the hammer from Xiao Kang's hand and swinging it hard.

Bang!
With the same result, Chen Kai felt a sharp pain in his arm from the recoil, while only a small mark remained on the wall.

Therefore, everything that the Chen family head said is true.

The stone and wood used in the construction of these ancient buildings by the Chen family were treated with special methods, so that even after weathering the storms of successive dynasties, they can still withstand artillery bombardment to this day.

OMG!

What did he experience today?
First it was the feng shui, then it was the ancient architecture that could withstand artillery fire...

Why does the world feel a little different?

Then, he thought of something else: he could rest assured that Chen's application for the traditional Chinese culture event could be approved.

Given all this, what kind of safety issues do you think might arise with the Chen family's ancient buildings?
Afterwards, Chen Han led Chen Kai and his group to other parts of the Chen family's ancient buildings for testing. Without exception, every part was sturdy enough to withstand artillery fire.

Chen Kai couldn't help but ask, "Patriarch Chen, does your Chen family know of any special methods for processing stone and wood?"

Chen Han shook his head and said, "Director Chen, if the Chen family still had this kind of technology, we would have gone into real estate materials long ago. How could we have fallen into such a state?"

Chen Kai nodded.

Indeed, if the Chen family had kept this technology, they could have made a fortune simply by obtaining a patent and selling it to real estate companies. Why would the Chen family head have needed to apply for those free tourism subsidies from the county?

It's such a pity that this technique has been lost.

This is yet another regrettable loss of traditional culture.

After inspecting the site for safety, residential safety, and whether it is a dangerous building, all that's left is to wait for the county's approval.

Chen Han smiled and invited, "Director Chen, tonight our Chen family will be hosting. Would you like to give us some pointers on our family's farm-style dishes?"

Chen Kai didn't intend to refuse, after all, investigating tourists' food and beverage needs was also part of his job, wasn't it?

This isn't a matter of principle. Perhaps after personally tasting those farm-style dishes, I can offer some advice to the Chen family.

He now sincerely hopes that Chen's traditional Chinese culture event will be held smoothly.

The sudden phone call made him frown slightly, but he answered it without hesitation.

Because it was his wife calling.

After only a short while on the phone, his brows furrowed even more: "What happened? Didn't he just get an injection? Why are his legs suddenly completely numb again? ... This brat, doesn't he know he shouldn't do strenuous exercise? ... I understand, I'll get back to the county as soon as possible."

After hanging up the phone, he said to Chen Han with a worried expression, "Master Chen, I'm really sorry, something came up at home, and we have to decline your kind offer. We need to go back to the county first."

Xiao Kang and the others naturally didn't express any opinions. After all, the big shots were going back, so they couldn't possibly stay. Otherwise, what would they look like?

Chen Han listened to what Director Chen said thoughtfully, and then asked, "Director Chen, is it your child who has numbness in both legs? I have a kind of medicinal bone wine here that should help in a few days, and it might be effective for this symptom."

He was referring to the Dog Demon Spine Wine, which has the effects of treating rheumatism and paralysis (+2), treating lower back and leg pain (+2), and treating numbness in the limbs (+2). However, it needs to be soaked for more than a week to be effective.

The time hasn't come yet.

"Patriarch Chen, are you telling the truth?" Chen Kai asked almost instinctively, his face filled with anticipation.

The youngest son was premature due to complications during his wife's childbirth, and has always had poor health.

She had previously experienced numbness in both legs after falling.

Chen Han explained, "Director Chen, I can't guarantee the specifics, but this bone wine is brewed using our Chen family's secret recipe, so it's worth a try. You might be pleasantly surprised."

"I'll have to trouble Patriarch Chen then." Chen Kai thought of the Chen family's feng shui house, the ancient building that could withstand cannonballs, and a sense of anticipation filled his eyes.

Perhaps that bone wine really does work.

His worldview was indeed affected by his trip to the Chen family.

After that, he took his leave and hurriedly led his men back to the county.

Xiaoyu immediately looked at her senior brother: "Senior brother, what's going on with the test? When did the Chen family's ancient buildings become able to withstand cannonballs?"

She clearly remembers that when she was a child, there was an ancient building in her clan whose bearing had broken, and it was her master who led people to repair it urgently.

There were some issues when the main building of the visitor center was being renovated. Now you're telling her it can withstand artillery shells?
"Feng shui formations aren't just for show. We've set up so many feng shui rooms, what do you think?" Chen Han bluntly shifted the blame to the feng shui formation, then left without looking back, leaving his bewildered junior sister behind.

When everything is inexplicable, feng shui formations can be invoked.

What an all-powerful feng shui formation! I admire you!

When Chen Han returned to the courtyard, Youfu immediately got up and barked twice at him.

Surprisingly, he understood what the guy meant: he was hungry.

Chen Han said irritably, "If you're hungry, why don't you go eat over to the cowshed? Do you expect me to bring it to you and feed it to you?"

Moo!

Youfu called out twice more, then reluctantly left the courtyard and headed towards the cowshed, attracting the attention of Chen's family and tourists along the way.

Seeing that everything was alright, Chen Han went to the recliner and browsed the news again. By evening, his cloud barrier technique had surpassed 20 likes, and Xiao Mi's video about believing in science regarding feng shui houses had surpassed 15 likes.

While scrolling through a few videos, he came across one about the Chen family's ancient architecture. The video was taken from a sneaky angle, like the perspective of a thief.

Upon seeing that the blogger was Mingdi (a member of the Demonic Cult), he couldn't help but chuckle; it was this guy who had come to the Chen family's side.

The other party's voice could also be heard in the video: "It seems that the Chen family has activated a feng shui formation. The surrounding magnetic field is chaotic, making it impossible to use my primordial spirit to see what's going on inside. However, I saw those flying Xuan Frost Lion-Headed Geese. This time, I must use the newly refined magic weapon, the Jade Bamboo Demon Flute, to seize control of them and cause the Chen family head to die. But before that, I need to find allies to hold off the Xuan Frost Lion-Headed Geese and create an opportunity for me to face off against the Chen family head."

The scene shifts, and the video shows the horn feeding stray dogs, looking on with obvious delight as the silly dogs eat, seemingly unafraid of being poisoned. The horn's voice rings out again: "I have made contact with the dog demon clan and formed an alliance with them to attack the Chen family."

Because of the good editing, after he spoke, the little dog actually looked up and barked twice, as if in response.

I don't know how long they filmed the horn blaring before finally capturing the moment when the little dog just looked up and barked, and then edited it into this.

People who work with the internet are indeed quite good at editing.

Therefore, many videos circulating online cannot always be trusted, since these days videos can even swap the faces of celebrities onto those of ordinary people.

"Interesting." Chen Han had to admit that this guy was even better at playing the game than him, and was good at using everything.

In this case, the plot of "the rampant evil spirits colluding with the demon race to attack the righteous families, attempting to ambush the righteous family head, but unaware that the righteous family head has already subdued a new spirit beast, and is ultimately severely injured by the spirit beast" is very much in line with the tropes of novels and films.

Looking at the comments section of the video of the horn being sounded, it's quite lively:
"Really, really, you've really fallen into demonic possession."

"666, you're the demonic sorcerer, you actually know how to unite with the demon race."

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. You've played me perfectly."

"..."

Chen Han put down his phone, sighing that a fierce battle was coming tomorrow.

Then, he thought of something and looked at a task in the task center:
[With the Blood Demon's escape, demonic energy has surged across the land, and demonic cultivators have become increasingly rampant, making you feel an ever-growing sense of crisis. You've decided to do something to let those demonic cultivators know the power of your family and deter them from attacking. Please demonstrate your family's military might to the outside world as soon as possible!]

After seeing the news about the medical doctor's fall, this mission came to mind. He had also thought about how to demonstrate his family's military strength in order to complete the mission.

Now that the demonic cult has attacked and joined forces with the dog demon clan, would defeating these clans be considered a demonstration of military power?

If that's the case, and this demonic cultist can drop another item for him, then he'll thank him.

In the evening, Chen Han ate some dinner and returned to the yard, only to find that Youfu had already come back. However, the little calf was sticking his butt out, looking like he was up to no good. So he shouted, "If you dare to poop in the yard, I'll castrate you."

In that instant, you could clearly see the cow's rump suddenly twitch.

Youfu looked at him with dissatisfaction and made innocent mooing noises.

Chen Han picked up the small hoe he used to turn the soil around the orchids in the yard, walked to a patch of land outside, dug a hole, and pointed to it.

Youfu then walked over and positioned the cow's rear end towards the pit.

Cow dung is still useful; it can be used as fertilizer. My uncle can take it to the vegetable garden later.

Chen Han also entered the pavilion. After returning to his room, he took out the spirit stone again, sat down cross-legged, and began to circulate the "Nine Heavens Profound Scripture Basic Qi Cultivation Method," guiding the spiritual energy inside the spirit stone into his body to begin refining it.

As time passed, that almost selfless state finally reappeared. Moreover, just like cultivating when the spiritual energy of a special spiritual acupoint was being washed away, the refined true energy not only repaired and treated lung cancer when passing through the Taiyin meridian, but also surged out of the Taiyin meridian.

He immediately guided his inner energy to his dantian.

However, as the energy progresses through the meridians, it is still consumed and dissipated along the way, merging into the body's flesh and blood to strengthen and nourish the body.

However, as the spiritual energy drawn from the spirit stone continued to flow, even if the true energy was consumed, it would be replenished later. He quickly guided the true energy into a relatively thick meridian.

Through internal visualization, true qi flows like a rushing river, and meridians are like river channels. Now, the river channel of this meridian is twice as wide as before, but there are also some major blockages in the river channel, which slows down the flow of true qi.

When the true energy disperses these blockages, the consumption also intensifies.

Through the "Basic Qi Cultivation Method of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Scripture," he was able to understand that this was due to acquired reasons, specifically, that his body's meridians were blocked.

However, with the impact of true energy, the blockage in the meridians was quickly cleared, and then the true energy was guided straight to the dantian.

He is now guiding his true energy to break through the blockage in this meridian. If he were to use internal force in martial arts novels to break through the blockage in this meridian, it would take months or even years.

Finally, after repeated depletion of his true energy, the true energy refined from the spiritual stones finally reached his dantian under his guidance, and he charged towards it with excitement.

In his inner vision, the true energy surged even faster, as if it couldn't wait to rush into its own lake.

Just before it rushed into the dantian, an invisible barrier blocked it. The surging true energy collided with it, creating explosive splashes, then scattered, disappeared, and merged into the body to nourish it.

However, cracks were clearly visible on the barrier.

Chen Han frowned. It seemed that he needed to rely on his true qi to break through the barrier in order to introduce the true qi into his dantian, establish a true qi circulation, and truly enter the qi refining stage.

Just as he was about to continue absorbing the spiritual energy from the spirit stone, the alarm clock rang.

Another night has passed.

He stopped, put away the spirit stone, and looked at his lifespan status in his mind: 7 years and 8 months.

The continuous healing effect of the true energy on the lungs during that night's practice actually extended his life by more than four years.

The effect was indeed even better.

He quickly washed up and went out.

We can't waste the spiritual energy cleansing; the usage counts of the Cloud Barrier Cauldron and the Hundred Flowers Palace Spirit Jade also need to be restored.

As soon as he stepped out of the courtyard, Youfu's bark rang out. It seemed that as soon as it saw him come out, it stood up on its own initiative, squatted down in front of him, and took the initiative.

Upon seeing this, Chen Han sat directly on its back, then sat cross-legged, and the ox carried him out of the courtyard.

Not long after, he appeared in the pavilion where the special spiritual cave was located. He sat cross-legged and took out the Cloud Barrier Cauldron and the Hundred Flowers Palace Spirit Jade. The difference was that this time, he was accompanied by an ox.

Finally, after dawn, the sky was already showing the red glow of the rising sun. As a ray of sunlight leaped over the mountain peaks and shone on the earth, a spiritual cleansing also began.

As spiritual energy surrounded him, Chen Han immediately activated the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Scripture Basic Qi Cultivation Method" to guide and absorb the surrounding spiritual energy, refining it into true qi.

Moo!
The calf seemed to feel comfortable, making a pleasant mooing sound and even squinting its eyes, clearly enjoying the feeling.

While Chen Han was cultivating amidst the spiritual energy, Mingdi, a demonic cultivator who had infiltrated the visitor center, had also gotten up early. He had even started broadcasting early in the morning, pouring a bowl full of dog food into a bowl in front of him and saying, "As you can see, this is the reward I promised to the dog demon clan when we formed an alliance. It's all top-grade demonic beast spirit soup, which cost me a lot of spirit stones."

Although his live streams are becoming more abstract now, he knows very well that this potted plant is to protect his testicles.

With the pack of dog demons blocking his way, the Chen family head's Xuanshuang Lion-Headed Goose was unable to attack him immediately.

He then had time to provoke the Chen family head, and then use the newly crafted magic weapon, the Jade Bamboo Demon Flute, to play four pieces of music for the Beast Taming Technique, trying to make a quick getaway before the dog demon failed.

In that case, he could be considered the head of the Chen family to have succeeded in defeating the king. As for the fact that the Jade Bamboo Demon Flute still couldn't take control of the Frost Lion Head Goose, it's because the magic weapon wasn't strong enough. He could just go back and continue refining it.

He's no longer the reckless fool who just grabs a flute and starts playing; he's transformed into a master strategist. In this dangerous battle, a moment's carelessness could endanger his testicles.

Seriously, it hurts a lot when you get bitten.

　Time for a nap before getting back to writing!
　　There's more today!
