The older generation of Shenlin family members were sent to the space station's server, and the former residence of the Shenlin family became increasingly remote. Even though guests were arriving one after another, it did not seem crowded at all.
In the center of the house are several antique-style mansions, row after row, all of which have been renovated. Currently, they live in Kambayashi Kuro, Ohara Risa and their closest relatives and friends.
In addition, there are several wing rooms, which are usually prepared for family members. Now they have become secluded corners for Falosa and her party to live temporarily. The distance between these rooms is wide, and they are equipped with very beautiful small courtyards and stone walkways on both sides. The sides are full of grass and flowers.
"It's been a long time since I've been to such a clean and quiet place." Farosha walked to the wooden grille window.
Looking around, she saw a meandering stream. The gurgling water was clearly distinguishable. It was even more clear and cold in the late autumn, making people want to walk into the water.
"We are social animals after all," Xu Yang stood beside her. "If we only emphasize sociality, we will forget our animality, and animals need to return to their natural environment from time to time."
"You're right, let's go to the bamboo forest." Falosa pointed to the deep bamboo forest behind the stream and glanced at Xu Yang frivolously.
Xu Yang picked her up by the waist, left the house, waded across the stream, and together they came to a deep bamboo place. Falosa lay in his arms, hooked his neck with her hands, and looked at the silence around her. view.
"How about this bamboo?" Xu Yang saw several 17-meter-tall old moso bamboos with complex leaves that divided the skylight and left tiny shadows.
"I'm afraid that we will break the bamboos. It will not be easy for them to grow for such a long time."
"You kill people without blinking an eye, but you are very concerned about the fate of bamboos."
"Bamboo won't turn against you."
"Then there's just grass."
"Where's the stone? Isn't there that kind of natural round stone?"
"Oh, there's a piece over there."
A large rock covered with moss became the place to work. The sweat dripped down and stained the stone leaving traces.
"How do you feel?" Xu Yang asked.
"Is this a product consumer review? Do I have to give it five stars to do it again?"
"maybe."
"Then five stars."
In the afternoon, Falosa and Xu Yang took a walk in the bamboo forest.
It is rare for them to have this unburdened feeling, so they cherish it very much. City life, mysterious symbols and network base stations are all too far away, making them ethereal and ethereal. There is no need to worry about it, and there is only a pure and peaceful natural environment around them.
"Just think of us as two wandering souls." Farro took Xu Yang's hand, "There is nothing to worry about, nothing to care about or take care of, all we want is to watch."
"OK."
They roamed freely, enjoying the fresh air and village style with all their hearts. They found that the former residence of Shenlin was very large. In addition to the mansion of the main family and the branch room of the branch family, after walking for seven or eight miles, they saw the lawn. There is a large barn on the top, and next to it is a woodshed with a thatched roof. The walls are peeling off and are probably hundreds of years old.
12 young people wearing uniforms of Xisheng Group are working nearby, collecting and sorting food and firewood. They have fair skin, gentle manners, and seem to have received a good education. Just like their counterparts in the city, they are ready to serve the company. The preparation for family effectiveness is just in a different form.
Across the grassland, there are no bamboos growing on the sunny side of the mountain. Instead, a beautiful pasture has been built. Several wedding guests are riding horses. There are pink and fat pigs in nearby metal corrals, all of which are carefully cultivated.
They were old breeds and did not look dirty or smelly. The children brought by the guests were very curious about all this and pointed at the animals they saw. They had only seen the finished fresh meat delivered to their homes and had never seen them suffer.
The appearance before the poisonous hand.
When they arrived at the edge of the foothills, Xu Yang and Falosa saw a farm village attached to the Shenlin family. The entire village had more than 60 households and more than 300 acres of paddy fields. In addition to farmers, there were hunters with guns who were responsible for providing food for the people on the mountain.
The rich offer organic food and fresh game.
A white shuttle was parked in the center of the village. Villagers gathered in small groups to load baskets of autumn-ripened persimmons. Each persimmon was very plump and as big as two fists. There were no labels on the baskets and they were never open to the public.
sell.
"I just hope to live in a place like this." Falosa sat on the hillside, looking at the rolling green mountains, "It's very quiet. Is the entire mountain the property of the Shenlin family?"
"Yes, go a little further north of the mountain, near Xianggen Mountain, and there is the castle tower of the Shenlin family. Long before they got involved with Noriko Honma, they were big landowners in the countryside."
"Noriko Honma convinced everyone."
"The Shenlin family is the first, and they are willing to do so. This is the best way for them to join the corporatist system." Xu Yang stood up, "Everything will be reshuffled on the winter solstice."
"If Xisheng collapses," Falosa said, "the whole mountain will be ours."
"More than that," Xu Yang looked into the distance, "If the Xisheng Group collapses, there are seven islands in the northern archipelago, and you can go to each one."
Falosa narrowed her eyes slightly.
"I can deign to be the queen of these seven islands," she said.
"Are you tempted?" Xu Yang said, "But if you want to replace Xisheng, you must find legitimacy for yourself."
"...the rightful right to rule."
"Yes." Xu Yang nodded.
Having power is enough. Falosa wanted to say this, but she realized that yes, power can indeed be used to shape legitimacy, but the premise is that she must be the most powerful in the world, otherwise,
Rule based on violence will surely be ended by stronger violence.
"It's difficult," Falosa said.
"Yes, the ancient mystics tend to deny you," Xu Yang looked at Falosa, "just because you have no legitimacy at all. They definitely don't want a witch with an ordinary background to rise up, so our power
The stronger it is, the higher the hostility of the mystics. There are also most people who will think carefully and will not easily agree."
"Only the company has legitimacy," Falosa said.
"This is why we are still operating in the form of a company, which is the most acceptable form of existence."
Falosa leaned back and lay on the hillside.
"It's so difficult to start from scratch," she said. "Why are my parents mediocre villagers?"
"We have passed the most difficult stage." Xu Yang walked towards the village.
"Where are you going?"
"Find a place with signal and see what everyone is doing."
"Come back." Falosa asked Xu Yang to lie next to her.
"what?"
"Let's go back after sunset." Falosa closed her eyes and held Xu Yang's hand. "Before that, we have to dream together."
On the other side, Kuro Kambayashi confirmed the wedding time, which will be two days later.
The whole house was busy, with professional housekeepers coming and going, unpacking the newly delivered home robots, and letting the skilled gentlemen handle the ingredients for the wedding. At the same time, they were cleaning the whole house and preparing for the wedding.
Delicious food is provided to all guests.
A food-delivery robot floated in the air, delivering huge food boxes to the side room area, and placed them squarely at the door, with a total of 8 aluminum alloy lunch boxes stacked up.
After it left, 102 quickly poked his head out, looked around, picked up all 8 lunch boxes in one breath, turned around and walked into the house.
"It's time to eat!" She put the lunch box in the back room.
"Ah!"
"finally!"
The little witches were very happy, it was finally time to eat.
They gradually disliked it here. After the initial novelty wore off, they disliked the hard beds in the old house, how many mosquitoes there were, the damaged ceilings, and the lack of moisture-proof walls, so they became less interested.
Only meal time can put smiles on their faces again. Thanks to the work of a large number of senior chefs, the food provided on site is very rich, and is provided six times a day, with additional brunch, afternoon tea and late night snacks.
"I don't want to eat, I want to go out." Du Qianqian changed his appearance and prepared to run away.
"Where are you going?" 102 was curious.
"Horse riding." Du Qianqian wanted to experience something new, "There is a horse farm nearby."
"He will definitely be kicked to death by a horse." 102 thought of Du Qianqian's unlucky physique.
"Ah -" Du Qianqian thought over and over again, firmly believing that this was just a disturbing superstition, "it won't be so unlucky every time."
After saying this, she left the wing and prepared to ride a horse.
"Can you eat, robot?" 102 looked at A100, "A40 doesn't eat much."
"You can play and run related eating programs, but the running energy of your phone mainly comes from the battery, not food, so usually you don't eat much," A100 said.
102 was just about to ask when he received a message from Lila.
"Go put on the witch armor and prepare for battle."
"I am eating."
"This is an order."
"Okay then..." 102 was forced to leave the dinner table and ran to find the armor and mask he had hidden in the box.
After she left, A100 lost the person to chat with and stood on the side of the wall holding a knife.
Immediately afterwards, 101 also received a message from Lila.
"Bring A100 to kill A40. Then bring 102 to join the battle. Finally, bring Mr. Xu Yang and Falosa to the scene." Lila sent the message.
"Kill the A40?"
"It sneaked up the mountain with Yoshiyuki Hosoda and Reiyo Kirino. I didn't want to see any of the three of them appear in the sight of the guests."
