This Female Celebrity Comes from the Cultivation World

Chapter 93

The next day's morning news and top Weibo hot searches were all about Jing City suddenly summoning representatives from various provinces and cities to gather all kinds of experts to hold a meeting, saying that they wanted to formulate new national strategies and plans.

Below were many netizens guessing what the new plan was, and some even said they were going to war.

Bai Ling was not very interested in this news. She took a look and then changed the channel.

There were fewer programs that could be watched in the village, and Bai Ling was not very satisfied as she switched back and forth. Finally she switched to a channel that was broadcasting a food documentary and watched the show while eating.

After taking care of the fish in the reservoir, the group had successfully completed their task this time, but because the roads below were blocked, they couldn't go back to the city for a while.

The back hill was closed off too, of course.

It took several seconds to open a web page, and it took several minutes to buffer a video. Bai Ling, who liked to surf the Internet, really couldn't stand it.

Bai Ling said, "What's good about staying in this poor and remote place? You can't get on the Internet quickly, there's nothing good to eat, and you can't move around freely!"

Bai Ling was extremely like a net-addicted girl, used to modern internet.

Fortunately, Shen Feixian timely emptied the village shop and stuffed her with some strange and novel little snacks, successfully giving Bai Ling patience for several days.

Regarding the issue that they still could not go down the mountain, Shen Feixian had exchanged a few words with Song Jixing. It should be that the people above were pumping the reservoir empty.

They should have done underwater probing below. With a little bit of equipment, they could easily detect if something was buried underwater. Moreover, a dragon had flown out from the bottom of the water, so they definitely had to check it carefully.

The reservoir was very deep and held a lot of water. To pump the water out quickly, the original small river was not enough. They could only discharge the pumped water into the mountains, which would cause some danger, so blocking the road was necessary. Secondly, there were the spiritual stones.

Spiritual stones were different from modern gemstones. Gemstones emit light by reflecting light, while spiritual stones emit their own light. Even if the people above did not know how to deal with spiritual stones for the time being, they would more or less associate them with the changes in this world and study their commonalities.

The restoration of spiritual energy was not regional, but global across the world.

Because of some reasons that prevented access to the internet, plus the unscientific nature of this matter, when many people saw these strange videos, their first reaction was that it was special effects rather than religion.

For the currently popular radish slapping people and turtle beating shark videos abroad, everyone watched them with the mentality of having fun, just like the popular kangaroo boxing passersby a few years ago. They were reasonable, real things that existed.

【I was the tree there, I saw it!】

【I was the camera, I took the shot.】

【I was the sun, I gave them the temperature today.】

Of course, some reflective ones would pop up below to let everyone reflect. The special effects abroad have been done so realistically. Just take a look at domestic ones, they are so fake!

Everyone watched these videos with the mentality of having fun, except when watching their own dragon.

After all, they were all descendants of dragons. It was not very reasonable for there to be dragons in this world, right?

The dragon-shaped fireworks in Z City at night caused heated discussion across the country. Many people even private messaged the official account to ask if the fireworks would really be set off during New Year.

Could they confirm the time and place? Also, could more be set off? They would definitely go to support Z City's tourism industry.

As a result, the fireworks manufacturer's contact number was blown up by calls, all coming to inquire if flying dragon fireworks could be purchased.

Even sticker factories called to purchase dragon design drawings. They wanted to sell stickers with the same design.

Bai Ling was unaware of this, and even less aware that there was such a thing as copyright fees.

On the fourth day, the roads opened and they could go down the mountain!

Old Zhu felt very guilty about not being able to take everyone for a stroll around the mountain. When sending the group to the village entrance, he did not forget to give them some local specialties from the mountain.

There were things like dried chestnuts, pears from the back hill, as well as flowers and plants for brewing tea, all packed in huge plastic bags.

Shen Feixian declined at first, but couldn’t stand Old Zhu’s enthusiasm. Old Zhu even pulled him aside and whispered, “This is to compensate you guys for the things!” As Old Zhu spoke, he rubbed his index finger and thumb together to gesture guide fees.

“I only took you guys for a walk around the village, how could I do that? There’s nothing good here, take these with you. The road back to the city is far, eating these can fight off hunger.” After saying this, Old Zhu lamented, “I heard that many people went missing around the reservoir a few miles away. They can’t find any of them. I figure the mountain was sealed off because of those people. With so many days lost, they must be long dead already.”

"Sigh, there used to be a lot of people in the village. Those with kids have all taken their kids to the city to buy a house and go to school. What’s left are those of us who can’t walk anymore. It only snows for one month in winter, and only for a few days. Many families in the village look forward to earning a few hundred or a thousand in winter for next year’s fertilizer purchases..." As Old Zhu spoke, he became very emotional.

Seeing this, Shen Feixian comforted him, “Things will get better, everything will get better in the future.”

Old Zhu replied: “I hope there will be more guests this year so that the villagers can all earn a bit. The village has raised a lot of chickens and ducks this year to prepare for city guests...You guys eat quite a lot too, going through two or three birds in one meal...”

It was all eaten by Bai Ling after all.

“The villagers also asked me to thank you! Thank you for coming to patronize their business! We were worried before about raising too many chickens this year, but now there is no worry at all.” As Old Zhu spoke, he bowed solemnly.

Shen Feixian went forward to help him up. He always felt Old Zhu had not finished his words.

Sure enough, after Old Zhu thanked them again and again, he got to the crux of things, “You booked the farm stay online right? Can you post some photos and give our village a five-star rating?”

Shen Feixian readily agreed. He even gave the five-star rating in front of Old Zhu. As for photos, he had pictures of flowers and plants in the mountains taken randomly, plus stewed chickens on the dining table. Shen Feixian often took pictures and shared them on WeChat groups to exchange life experiences with his fellow sect members. He didn’t expect it to come in handy now.

Seeing the five-star rating and various scenic photos, Old Zhu finally sent Shen Feixian onto the car with great satisfaction. He waved his hand and said, “Welcome back next time! I’ll treat you even better next time!”

Shen Feixian maintained his smile, but his tone was no longer as amiable as before. “We won’t come again next time, we really can’t come again!”

Confusion showed in Old Zhu's smile. “Why don’t you want to come again? Didn’t you say it was pretty good just now?”

Shen Feixian took another look around the village. Still smiling at Old Zhu, he said, “I see pretty good fengshui in your village. It should be up for demolition and relocation soon! Old Zhu, haven’t you always wanted to buy your daughter an apartment in the city? If you buy the land at the village entrance you’d be able to afford it.”

Old Zhu was stunned in place. He scratched his near bald head, utterly unable to understand why the perfectly fine village would be demolished.

“You must buy it! The land at the village entrance only costs a few thousand!”
