"We can't possibly go out from the imperial kitchen, not to mention whether it would be convenient to set up the equipment. This title sounds like we're going to have a meal. And Wen Yuan's house is very close to yours, right?"
"Yes, next street."
"Actually, I sometimes hope that Lu Qianhu can come and help me. It would be much more convenient if he were closer."
"Okay, I have no problem with that. Although I find it annoying to keep going to his house, I can't help it when it's business."
"Don't you like going to his house?"
“His family has one share.”
"There's a chilly feeling," Wen Yuan answered herself. "It's chilly. Since there aren't many people here, and many places are deserted, it's easy to get that way. The women who come to work at my house often have back and leg pains, and I don't know why. Maybe it's just the humidity? After all, it's close to the Qinhuai River."
"Is it because your family's feng shui is not good?"
"Who knows? Oh," Wen Yuan suddenly remembered, "If you come to my house, maybe it will improve the feng shui. After all, you are auspicious. Brother Xiangrui, when will our department go to my house to open the branch? I can't wait for Xiangrui to come and consecrate my house."
Chapter 282 Department
"Let's reveal the headquarters first. Yes, this is the door." Several people walked to the side door of the imperial kitchen. This did not lead to the food processing workshop, but only to the stairs going up and down. Upstairs were offices, but it was too noisy. Shangluo chose the basement, which was quieter.
"It seems eerie here too." A chill filled the air in the basement. Han Xingzhi was the first to emerge from the stairwell. Although both ends were brightly lit, the doors looked similar and somewhat creepy.
"Which way are we going?" he turned around and asked Shangluo.
"Room 502 is the location I chose."
"It's not far ahead. Eh? The door is open? There seems to be someone inside?"
"Oh yes, let me introduce you, that person is..."
"Be careful!" Wen Yuan pounced forward and pinned both of them to the ground.
"What are you doing?" Han Xingzhi was pressed to the ground by him, with his face touching the floor.
"That's Phaethon! Ha, I didn't expect you to escape from the Imperial Prison! Try my newly-trained palm thunder!" He rang the token, and lightning gathered at his fingertips. "Jade Purity begins to turn green, the true talisman announces the alliance, pushing the two energies apart, blending them into one and becoming true. Five Thunders, Five Thunders."
"Ah!!!" The familiar flash of lightning flashed before her. Phaethon helplessly grasped the broom, holding only the broomstick across her face. The familiar fear and helplessness once again overwhelmed her.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I thought you were still a bad guy!"
"Wuwuwu. Wuwaaaah." Sitting on the sofa, Phaethon kept sobbing, still holding the broom in his hand.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I was wrong! I really didn't mean it! I thought you were still the Roman demigod!"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!" Phaethon cried even louder.
"Can you talk less?" Lu Liang glared at him and hugged Phaethon tighter.
He was still confused and turned his head to ask Shangluo: "What happened to her? Why is her magic power gone?"
"It was refined. Daozu took action and refined her magic power. She has no magic power left now."
"Oh, no wonder the color of my hair changed too. From a shiny golden yellow to a plain black. It seems my hair quality isn't as good as yours."
“Woooooooo~~~”
"Why are you crying again! I was wrong! Auntie, I was wrong! What did I say wrong? Can you please stop crying? I don't mind if you hit me, but I really can't stand you crying!"
"Alas." Shangluo patted his shoulder. "It's hard to explain. Don't ask. Every time she thinks about this, it just opens up the scars."
"Your name is Phaethon, right?" Lu Liang sat next to her. "You've done something bad, haven't you?"
"Yeah," Phaethon nodded.
"Did the bad things you did bring about any bad consequences?"
"Well, not at the moment," Shangluo answered for her. "Her father helped her repay the debt of gratitude, but now she has to stay with us for a while. She's on vacation."
"Oh," Lu Liang nodded, as if he had understood what was going on.
"You're on vacation, so you're just sweeping the floor here?"
"Well," Phaethon replied, "I feel sorry for my father, so I want to do more work."
"That's good, very good. So where do you live now?"
Phaethon raised his head and pointed at Shangluo: "I live in his house. It was Daozu who allowed me to live there."
"I'm sorry!" Wen Yuan turned around and bowed to Shangluo, "I shouldn't have bullied her! I'm sorry for being your friend!"
"What a mess!"
"Oh~~~" Han Xingzhi nodded thoughtfully, "So that's how it is. His father was in debt and mortgaged her here, and then Daozu appointed her to my eldest brother as his sister-in-law."
"What's going on in your head?"
Phaethon rubbed his nose and said, "This alone is impossible."
"Why?" Han Xingzhi asked, and even Lu Liang came over.
"Because Shangluo is infertile."
Silence, the whole room was silent in an instant.
"Brother! I was wrong! I was wrong! I forgot about this!" Han Xingzhi bowed his head. "So what Mr. Titus said came true! I shouldn't have made fun of the East Factory before! Brother! Brother! Please don't hold it against me! I will never dare to make fun of you again!"
"I'm so sorry!" Wen Yuan also bowed. "Why am I so unlucky today? Why am I constantly apologizing to people? Shangluo, I didn't know you had such difficulties. I played a joke on you about the East Factory. This is really too much! I'm sorry!"
"Oh my God!" Shangluo banged his head against the wall.
[Ouch my head! Can you please stop banging your head against the wall? I was eating watermelon and my Coke fell over!]
"Oh~~" I was startled, but Han Xingzhi finally calmed down. "So the actual situation is that, big brother, because you are too powerful, you are afraid that giving birth to a dragon seed will be out of control, so you have to keep yourself clean?"
"Amazing! Amazing!" Wen Yuan nodded blankly. "This is the first time I've seen someone this amazing."
"No, no. Hehe. Hehe."
"So it happened when we broke the branch? Even though Mr. Titus mentioned it then, I thought you just couldn't have children with the Earth Mother's lineage. You didn't mention it later, so I thought it wasn't a big deal. So it's completely forbidden? Is it such a big deal?"
"No, the situation has become more troublesome now." After Helios's reminder, Shangluo pondered the issue carefully. As the entanglements from Dionysus and Earth Mother came into play, he felt that everything was truly terrifying. He had thought it was just karma that could be eliminated, but it was deeply embedded in the path forward, and there was no way to escape it.
To be on the safe side, before he is fully prepared to defeat a powerful enemy at the level of "God King", he still plans to proceed cautiously and try not to "get out of control".
"So, big brother, you carry such a heavy burden. Alas, it's no wonder that it's my big brother. Then, will you consider the matter of the East Factory?"
"This is the only problem... Well, actually, the baggage is nothing. Without destroying Yakong, there is no home. I have no plans to get married and start a family in the short term, so it's not a big problem. Everyone can be promoted to a celestial being, right? So it doesn't matter if it takes a few years, there are still many days to come. Oh, by the way, today is a big day, it's a good thing. Well, our department is about to be unveiled!"
He clapped his hands. The basement was completely silent, with only the rhythmic hum of the factory machinery overhead. Rumble, rumble, electricity surged through the wires, and everything on the production line operated in an orderly manner.
"Our department's official name is - the Thunder Department!"
The Ministry of Thunder is one of the various departments of the Celestial Court. Shangluo, who oversees celestial affairs, decided to build the Celestial Court step by step. He began with the Ministry of Thunder, as it could be established under the guidance of Master Sa. He then added the Ministry of Fighting, the Ministry of Fire, the Xuandu Province, the Yushu Province, and other departments, gradually building up the various departments of the Celestial Court alongside the six departments on earth. When the "Miracle of Taiyi" is achieved, the already prepared Celestial Court will be ready to begin operations immediately. The grand blueprint for the Celestial Court is here.
"Excuse me." There was a knock on the door. "I'm Fu Yuanshan. This is the Lei Department's activity room, right? My master asked me to bring you lunch and movie tickets. Could someone open the door?"
Chapter 283 Food Delivery
"The door is not locked? Then I came in."
Upon hearing this, Wen Yuan and the others all stood up. Shangluo couldn't sit still any longer. He put his chair back and stood there as well. Only Phaethon still didn't know what was going on.
"It's a strong man." Shang Luo was close, and said in a low voice, "A semi-god-level strong man, the kind who cultivates himself."
Phaethon also stood up.
"Eh? Why are you all standing here? Sit down, I'm here to deliver the food. Wen Yuan, right? Here's your meal." He came in with a small bag, distributing lunch boxes one by one. He could call out everyone's name and handed them out one by one.
In front of Faetong, he stopped: "You are Faetong, right? Well, the master said that he would give you a meal too."
"Wait a minute." She held the lunch box and never let go, "Can I ask, how did you practice?"
"You ask this, sit down first. Everyone sit down, and I'm here to deliver the food." After Phaethon and the others sat down, he pulled a stool and sat down beside the coffee table:
"It's been a long time ago. I am a monk from the Shenxiao sect. I met my master when I was 6 years old. The master told me that I was destined and told me to start in two years. So when I was 8 years old, I became Sazu's disciple. Disciple—Of course, my master is Xu Zhenren, and I still can’t worship Sazu’s great power. Well, this is the beginning. Later, the master said that I was actually destined to be with Ouchi, and wrote me a letter of recommendation, I have arrived at Jinyiwei."
"And then?" Phaethon asked.
"And then? Then I continued to practice, because the Jinyiwei and the Shenxiao Sect all practiced the same Five Thunder Method, so it was still the same as before. And then one morning, while I was practicing, I woke up and found white hairs on my pillow. I was already quite old at the time, and I thought, this day has finally come, should I go dye my hair? But then I looked in the mirror—I clapped my hands, and hey, it worked."
"Then what???" Phaeton looked at him in disbelief.
"And then? Then, of course, I went back to dyeing my hair. Having white hair was too conspicuous, so I took half a day off that day. When I went to work in the afternoon, no one else noticed. It wasn't until the Emperor sent an order for me to attend the ordination ceremony that the other students in my class discovered it. Then, day by day, my appearance started to get younger, and I couldn't hide it anymore."
"Ah, this." The light in Phaethon's eyes disappeared - this was completely worthless.
But she still didn't give up: "Where is your sect?"
"Are you asking about the mountain gate? I don't have one. Not all Taoists practice in a Taoist temple. My master, Master Xu, wanders around everywhere—I later discovered that wandering around is the norm, and it's rare for people to sit inside a Taoist temple. But they usually stay in one place for a while. For example, when I became his disciple, my master was actually setting up a fortune-telling stall in the City God Temple near my home. He had planned to close it down soon, but then he ran into me and kept the stall for many years."
"Is this okay?"
"Fu Yuan Dao is like this. When Fu Yuan arrives, it will naturally become a 'Tao'. So I bumped into my master, and Jian Ji also bumped into it 'suddenly'. Why, very disappointed, right? Is it not at all?" Reference value?"
"Oh." Faethon was really disappointed, "Then your cultivation is really easy."
"Actually, it's not that easy. Cultivate good fortune and you'll receive more blessings, because the more you share, the more blessings you'll gain. That's why I often go there for free meals, and I also give some pointers to young people who need help. How's that? Do you understand?"
"Eh?"
She understood, it was pointing her.But what did it point to?
"Shangluo, your meal." He left Phaethon who was still wondering and handed the lunch box to Shangluo.
"Thank you."
Shangluo took the food, but Fu Yuanshan didn't let go.
"Open it, there are good things inside."
"?"
He brought the lunch box in front of him.
This lunch box has a seal on it. It was prepared this morning. It's a stainless steel lunch box used inside the Grand Palace and needs to be recycled afterward. The flat stainless steel lunch box has several compartments for different dishes.
I opened the lunch box. Inside was rice, pig's trotters, and vegetables next to the pig's trotters. Next to the vegetables were three dates.
"Oh, is it this date?"
Three wrinkled but plump red dates.
Shangluo held the lunch box and handed it over first: "Senior Fu, would you like to have one?"
"You're welcome." He took out another lunch box from the bottom of the bag and took out a pair of chopsticks from his arms, as if he brought them with him.
Just when Shangluo was wondering why anyone would carry chopsticks with him, he reached out and picked up the hoof from Shangluo's bowl and put it in his lunch box.
"Eh? I mean this date."
"If I want to eat cursed dates, I can make them myself, but if I want to eat pig's trotters, I can't make them. Well, I'll share some of your blessings."
Shangluo didn't know what to say. Master Sa's cursed dates were supposed to be the most precious, while pig's trotters were everywhere. He had wanted to give one of the cursed dates to Fu Yuanshan, but he seemed to have declined, not wanting to share Master Sa's gift, and only gave the pig's trotters.
But when the hooves were separated, he had nothing to eat.
"Okay. Enjoy your meal then." He put the lunch box back.
"I have something else for you." He put away his lunch box and chopsticks and took out the movie tickets from his pocket.
"Here, five movie tickets. Would you like one each or let one person hold it first?"
"What tickets?" Wen Yuan beside him wondered. He hadn't figured out what kind of movie tickets Fu Yuanshan had to deliver in person.
Taking the ticket from Fu Yuanshan, he took a look:
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
"What's your name?" Han Xingzhi looked at him puzzledly and reached out to take the ticket.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
"What are your two names?" Lu Liang was sitting at the other end and hadn't seen the tickets yet.
"Meet the meeting! It's a ticket for the meeting!" Han Xingzhi showed the ticket. "There's Wang Lingguan! There's Wang Lingguan's actor. And the director! Everyone's here!"
"Huh?" Shang Luo was stunned for a moment. He asked Fu Yuanshan in a low voice, "So everyone doesn't know that this is Master Sa Tianshi?"
"I don't know." Fu Yuanshan also answered in a low voice, "Master Sa Tian used a pseudonym, so no one knows. Well, but it's okay this way. If you only watched it knowing it was directed by Master Sa Tian, then your good fortune wouldn't be enough. Children watch it because they like it, that's destiny. But Master Sa Tian wanted to make a children's program for elementary school students, but I didn't expect the ratings to be so good. In fact, the ratings were highest in middle schools."
