Among the one hundred judges invited for the first Huanxiang Habitat Award, fifty are international experts in the field of planning and design, and the other fifty are celebrities from all walks of life, focusing on the field of culture and art.
This arrangement has two purposes. One is to ensure both authority and influence. If the guest judges are all people in the professional field, it will be difficult to break through the circle of influence.
The second reason is also for the public recognition of the award, because although the city planning is done by professional designers, the residents are ordinary people, and they represent the actual users of the "product".
Hua Zhenxing wouldn't be too surprised if Old Man Yang sneaked into the judges' team, but he never expected that it was Uncle Mo! Hua Zhenxing didn't hear anything about it beforehand, and no one in the organizing committee knew about it.
Therefore, Uncle Mo was invited by the organizing committee according to normal procedures. Either he is a real expert in the field of design and planning, or he is a highly recognized public celebrity.
After thinking about it again, Hua Zhenxing felt that there was no need to make a fuss. With Uncle Mo's cultivation, it was normal for him to have another identity. Master Ke should also be the same, and Old Man Yang couldn't run away.
I remember when I was rummaging through things at home when I was a kid, Hua Zhenxing found dozens of passports in a cabinet. The names, ages, and nationalities of the people on the passports were all different, but the photos looked a bit like Old Man Yang.
Hua Zhenxing checked the one hundred judges in his mind, but he didn't find out who Mo Shangtong was. He only identified a few key suspects. But Uncle Mo told him not to pry, so he stopped asking.
"So that's it. You are always on the judging panel, so I feel relieved!"
"You must have this kind of mentality. No matter who I am among the judges, that is, that judge. Just like what happened today, don't think that you can take it lightly as long as I am here."
"I understand, I have understood this truth a long time ago!"
"I think you don't quite understand yet. Let me ask you again, have you ever seen me hurt someone?"
This sentence stopped Hua Zhenxing. Thinking carefully, he had never seen Uncle Mo hurt anyone with his own eyes, and he had never even heard of it.
Uncle Mo founded the Straw Shoes Gang in Fesoport. In a country where gangs are everywhere and crime is rampant, he has established such a large social organization, but he himself has never hurt anyone. This sounds like a book from heaven.
But Uncle Mo did it, which is not surprising considering his cultivation level. Not only can he protect himself, but he can also prevent those who try to harm him from even having a chance to take action.
Mo Shangtong has special skills but never hurts anyone. Does this represent "forbearance" and "kindness"? At least in Hua Zhenxing's view, in a ghost place like Fesuo Port back then, it definitely didn't!
In this case, there is another reason. It is probably difficult to understand that Hua Zhenxing is not at the same level as the old man.
Feiso Port was once full of thugs, and people like Jin Datou would never die unjustly no matter how many times they died. At least Hua Zhenxing did not hesitate when he killed Jin Datou, and he felt very happy afterwards.
Mo Shangtong can tolerate the evil that happens every day around him. Seeing people like Jin Datou doing evil things, but not taking action even though he has the ability to kill them, is he condoning evil?
In Hua Zhenxing's opinion, absolutely not! Anyone who knows Mo Shangtong would never say such a thing.
Then the question is very fantasy. Uncle Mo does not hurt anyone, nor does he indulge in evil, so what is he doing? In fact, applying such a simple label is a misunderstanding, a Hollywood-style misunderstanding.
With Uncle Mo's level of cultivation, no one in the world can hurt him. Looking at it, people in the world are only hurting each other. So Uncle Mo's not hurting others does not mean that he will not take action. He just has his own behavioral boundaries.
The premise of this kind of behavioral boundary is that no one in the world can hurt him. Hua Zhenxing does not have this state, so there is no need to do this, and in many cases it is even more impossible to do so.
In Hua Zhenxing's memory, Master Ke never hurt anyone.
As for Old Man Yang, he behaves more mysteriously. Anyone who dares to break into the grocery store and commit murder will have a bad end. Old Man Yang seems to be very particular about not taking action to hurt others, although it is almost impossible to see him taking action directly.
But if there is no one who has offended Old Man Yang, Old Man Yang will not take the initiative to go out and deal with them.
So are these masters condoning evil and lacking a sense of social responsibility? Of course not!
Let’s just talk about Uncle Mo. If he went to “act chivalrously and righteously” and punished evil deeds when he saw them, then when there were 500,000 residents of Fesoport, he couldn’t kill more than 400,000 of them?
Uncle Mo is not the god who sends a great flood to cleanse the world of sins in the "Covenant". In Hua Zhenxing's eyes, he is a true saint.
Once upon a time, the country of Jili was a place where even the gods could do nothing when they came, but the three old men cultivated Hua Zhenxing, and not just one Hua Zhenxing.
The Straw Shoe Gang formed by Uncle Mo was the capital for the new alliance to start. This large number of key personnel possess organizational and mobilization capabilities that the locals could not imagine, and they also have a clear common program and social purpose.
Ke Fuzi, who also never harmed anyone, also played an important role in the stage after the establishment of the new alliance, which was to establish and improve the governance system under the new order.
The main governance work of Huanxiang Industrial, even Fesoport, and the new government of Kilili Country were all completed under the guidance of Ke Fuzi. They did not take a knife to the streets to "eliminate violence and bring peace to the good", but they demonstrated great kindness and righteousness.
What about Old Man Yang? It's still very mysterious. The two old men, Hua Zhenxing, can more or less explain clearly what they did and what kind of ambition they showed, but Hua Zhenxing can't describe Old Man Yang's acting style.
But Old Man Yang definitely played a big role. If there was no grocery store, how could Huazhenxing have a foothold? Even the old man went to Wucheng Zhiwei Building to refresh the menu for two months, and the results were impressive!
Hua Zhenxing can now figure out some mysteries about the behavior of the three old people, but it is definitely not possible to say that he can understand them.
Now that Uncle Mo has said this, the point is to remind him that he will provide help and protection to Hua Zhenxing, but will not directly help Hua Zhenxing kill his opponents.
Therefore, Hua Zhenxing should not develop a mentality of dependence, especially if he does not act recklessly because of this. Hua Zhenxing has long understood this truth, but when he was in danger in the snowy mountains today, Mo Shangtong emphasized it again.
While Hua Zhenxing was wondering, Uncle Mo had turned around and disappeared into the snow valley. Hua Zhenxing shook his head and smiled bitterly. After thinking about it, he didn't deal with the snow wolf on the spot. He put it into the demon refining gourd and took it away first.
He has been delayed for a long time, and Feng Zibin cannot be missing for too long.
It was getting dark, and Kedia and others had already moved to a safe area and returned to the station by car. "Feng Zibin" also got into his car surrounded by his entourage, returned to the hotel and closed the door to rest.
.
Hua Zhenxing's phantom clone had dissipated during his battle with Snow Wolf, but Locke and Lian Na knew the magic of phantom, so they could create a phantom for him. As long as he didn't come into contact with outsiders, they could hide his appearance.
When Hua Zhenxing sneaked back to the hotel, he had tidied himself up and changed his clothes, and quietly slipped into his room. Of course there was no wind in the room, but Manman was sitting in the living room of the suite waiting for him.
Seeing Hua Zhenxing appear, she quickly came over and asked, "Are you okay?"
Hua Zhenxing: "Of course I'm fine. Guess who I met?"
Manman: "Who is it? Do you know the person who caused the avalanche?"
Hua Zhenxing: "The person who caused the avalanche was not a human, but a demon king snow wolf. I killed it. We will make a dog meat hotpot and eat it together later! After I killed the snow wolf, I met Uncle Mo. He was actually the organizing committee member.
One of the judges I will invite.”
Manman: "Uncle Mo is not on the list of judges!"
Hua Zhenxing: "That's his other identity in the world, but he won't tell me who he is."
Hua Zhenxing introduced what he had just experienced, and Manman was frightened when he heard it. Fortunately, there was no danger in the end. In the end, Manman patted his chest and said, "Hua, Uncle Mo said that he never hurts anyone, but he didn't."
He said he would never take action."
In fact, Hua Zhenxing also knew that the reason why Uncle Mo showed up today was actually to intimidate some people present and tell them not to make any more moves. It was obviously to support him.
But it is one thing for Mo Shangtong to support Hua Zhenxing, and it is another thing to remind Hua Zhenxing.
Hua Zhenxing nodded and said: "If he doesn't take action, how can he have the uppers of straw sandals, and how can he have the Yangyuan Valley Cave? But it is true that he never hurts anyone, and he will not take the initiative to kill anyone with a knife."
Manman: "But he beat you before."
Hua Zhenxing: "When did that happen? It was also to educate me!"
Manman: "Who drove Snow Wolf, and who stopped him? Just ask Mr. Yue."
Hua Zhenxing immediately took out his cell phone to contact Yue Gao Le, but his message was not returned. The call went to voicemail, so he had to leave a message in Feng Zibin's name.
Both of them were so arrogant that they actually sat in the room and played a guessing game again, taking out the list of judges to guess who Uncle Mo was? Manman finally identified six suspects, but he couldn't be sure.
.
Really unable to guess, Manman suddenly asked: "What does that snow wolf look like? Show me."
Hua Zhenxing: "Don't take it out here, I'll take you into the demon refining gourd. Don't use magic to resist, I'll use the gourd to take you in."
Hua Zhenxing is really good at playing. He used a gourd to collect Manman in the middle of the night. Ordinary space artifacts cannot collect living creatures, but the cave artifact can. Otherwise, the three old people would not be able to create the cave barrier with the Fufeng Pan.
However, the Demon Refining Gourd, a cave artifact, is very special. It could not accommodate living creatures originally, because it was not only a dead world, but could also wipe out life. Hua Zhenxing was able to survive in the dead world after receiving the inheritance of the artifact.
This was simply a preparation for Hua Zhenxing to hone his cultivation skills. After breaking through the seventh level of cultivation, he insisted on refining the world in the gourd. It was Old Man Yang who first laid the foundation for him, and he refined a piece of delicious food in the center of the world in the gourd.
The outline of the living space is like a grocery store.
Hua Zhenxing has been worshiping and refining the world in the gourd for a long time. With the ability to control the gods at the seventh level, he has realized that "life comes from nothingness". Based on the original size of a grocery store, he has expanded a space equivalent to a city block.
, can accommodate vitality.
The so-called block only refers to the size of the space. In fact, it means nothing. However, the grocery store is no longer just an outline. Huazhenxing collected materials and packed them in, and built a grocery store in the world of Gourd that is almost the same as the one in Fesoport.
He also put a lot of things in the grocery store, so saying that he carries the grocery store with him is not a description, it is a fact. The snow wolf that was put away at dusk is now placed in the backyard of the grocery store.
Both of them entered the world of gourds. There was only a small gourd left beside the pillow of the big bed in the room. It was like a handle that could fit in the palm of your hand. Judging from the texture and texture, it should be a wooden handicraft.
I think Hua Zhenxing's roommate Chi Liang found this golden gourd and wanted to steal it. Later, the Demon Refining Gourd became what it is now.
After all, Hua Zhenxing received the inheritance of the artifact. Although he did not completely refine the world in the gourd, he could still do it.
There is no light in the world in the gourd, and you can only see things with your soul. For Manman, the consciousness cannot spread to the place where Hua Zhenxing has not yet been sacrificed. Hua Zhenxing took her hand in and sacrificed a magical weapon.
Pearl of light.
The light illuminated the surrounding scene, and Manman exclaimed: "This is the backyard of the grocery store...Wow, this snow wolf is so big!"
Except for the lack of lychee trees and hand-pressed wells, this place is indeed similar to the backyard of Fesuo Port grocery store. The remains of the snow wolf are well preserved, but the vitality has been wiped out.
The original body of this demon king had snow-white hair all over its body. Only its nose and claws were black. Not counting its tail, it was over three meters long, and its shoulder height was almost the same as Manman's height.
Hua Zhenxing pulled out a sharp boning knife: "Demon King, it's normal for him to be a little bigger."
He walked over to peel the skin, found a suitable position and started cutting, but it didn't cut at all. He turned around and said to Manman: "You take over. If the light beads illuminate, I will change the knife."
Ordinary sharp blades can't even cut through the snow wolf's fur. You have to use magic power and magic weapons to do so. With Hua Zhenxing's cultivation level, you can only control one magic weapon at the same time. Even with the magical effect of light beads, it is still a magic weapon, no matter how simple it is, so
Let Manman take charge.
Manman sacrificed with light beads, and Huazhenxing sacrificed with the Yulan knife to decompose the snow wolf. This time there was no problem. It was a pleasure to watch his knife skills in processing the ingredients smoothly.
Such a big snow wolf was clearly decomposed, and they were chatting while decomposing it.
Manman: "I heard that wolf meat is very unpalatable."
Hua Zhenxing: "Dogs are transformed from wolves. Dog meat is very delicious. Wolf meat depends on how it is made. It mainly removes acid. Just trust my skills! And this is not an ordinary wolf, it is the Demon King of the Eight Realms."
Manman: "Is the food a good supplement? Your body is already so good, you don't need too much supplement..."
According to Uncle Mo's tips, the most important thing is the pair of wolf teeth on the upper jaw, which are more than a foot long. They are like two sharp curved awls. When ordinary people hold them in their hands, their souls will feel like they are being stung by the cold.
Its muscles, bones, and claws are also treasures of heaven and earth. When they are broken down and collected, they are simply sacrificed and then taken to the Yangyuan Valley Research Institute for storage. Da Kezi will definitely like them very much. Hua Zhenxing already has them in his mind.
There is a picture of Vandak's demon wolf bone now.
Apart from the pair of magic weapon wolf fangs, the most precious thing in Hua Zhenxing's eyes was actually a complete snow wolf skin. After cleaning it up, he rubbed his hands and said to Manman: "I will give you a piece of clothing later, I made it myself."
It was already late today, and of course it was impossible to make clothes overnight. In the hotel room, the small gourd fell on the carpet again, making almost no sound... The big bed was gone.
The next day, Manman and others took a special plane back to Huanxiang Tebang, and then Feng Zibin went missing again. This mysterious rich man was also an explorer, and his whereabouts were always elusive.
When the special plane landed, another flight from Dongguo Wucheng also arrived at the airport. Hua Zhenxing returned to Jili Country. He had flown from Ruishi Country, but his name appeared on the list of the Dongguo flight.
