As a Chinese man, in a world where civilization has been lost thirty thousand years later, when he saw a Chinese garden, even if he just saw the gate, one can imagine Shen Yan's excitement.
In modern times, when architectural styles are globally unified, we can truly appreciate how high the aesthetics of our ancestors was.
Thirty or forty years before Shen Yan was born, China experienced a very unconfident era. At that time, everyone seemed to think that the moon abroad was rounder, envied the high-rise buildings abroad, imitated, chased, and transformed the domestic The buildings were completely rebuilt according to the Western pattern, and countless ancient buildings were torn down, calling them dilapidated, even shameful, and regarded as a symbol of poverty.
Little do they know that those seemingly ancient things are actually things that the Chinese people are truly proud of. They are just buildings. The Chinese people can look down at them with pride.
By the time the people regained their cultural confidence, they already regretted it. Those ancient buildings that had been torn down and replaced by modern unified styles were all the stunning crystallizations left by their ancient ancestors.
Shocking, absolutely.
Since the birth of human civilization, there are only four recognized top garden styles, namely French royal gardens, Italian terrace gardens, British natural landscape gardens, and Chinese classical gardens.
Chinese classical gardens are known as the mother of gardens in the world. The delicacy and beauty of private gardens, the grandeur and majesty of royal gardens, and the mystery and atmosphere of temple gardens surpass the other three. They are the ultimate in human pursuit of aesthetics. It also contains Chinese principles of life and can be called the world's best garden art.
Western aesthetics is based on practicality, but the connotation of Chinese aesthetics is the avenue of heaven and earth and esoteric philosophy.
In front of the gate, under the red painted wooden pillars, everyone was looking up.
Shen Yan felt that it was ancient and full of nostalgia and nostalgia, but others felt completely different.
A beautiful residence that I have never seen before?
Who would build the gate like this!
In Chinese civilization, there is the idea of "facade". As the name suggests, the facade is the responsibility of a building, and then it is extended to the face of adults.
Just the door in front of you makes people's mouths open.
Is this a ruin from the past? Such a door is like a door to mystery. Perhaps only the unknowable will live behind this door.
In fact, whether it is the Mercenary City or other cities, the buildings are very simple. Suddenly being under such a gate, it is inevitable that some mountains will stand up.
Shen Yan took a deep breath. As a historian, archaeologist, and descendant of China, this is his root.
After saluting in front of him, Shen Yan stepped forward and reached out to push open the heavy door.
The door of Chinese civilization was pushed open at this moment.
The people following Shen Yan, when their curious eyes passed through the door for the first time, were dumbfounded and stood there motionless...
Behind this gate, I saw mountains and rocks, gardens of flowers and trees, small bridges and flowing water, pavilions, terraces and corridors.
Rockeries, flowing water, and green bamboos are dotted among them.
The roads alone are paved with bluestone slabs and cobblestones. The bluestones are the main road in the courtyard, and some paths are paved with snow-white cobblestones.
Shen Yan looked around and couldn't help but nod. The steps, plants, lights, scenery...
Walls, flower stands, pavilions, corridors, corridors, etc. can be called the pinnacle of wood and stone architecture.
Every bit is a unique reflection of the Chinese courtyard, a continuation of civilization, wisdom and history. Only China and their ancestors can build such buildings. No one can take it away, and no one can steal it. It belongs to China. The most precious treasure of children.
Shen Yan turned around and realized that the people behind him had not followed.
In their minds, there is indeed a new world behind this door, so beautiful that they don't even dare to step into it.
Shen Yan smiled. In fact, when he visited such a private garden for the first time, he was also very shocked by the brilliance and incredibleness of the crystallization of ancient art. It can even be said that in modern times, people's aesthetics and art are regressing.
Shen Yan waved: "Come in, it's getting late, I have to arrange a room for you later. ()"
“?()_[()]?『Come on[]. Read the latest chapter. Complete chapter』()”
Shen Yan nodded.
Bamboo was so excited that he stamped his calf: "No one can drive Bamboo away from here in the future, and no one can even try to carry Bamboo out."
Shen Yan smiled, this was just the entrance.
Lead the people inside.
Pass through the connected courtyards and walk between the corridors and pavilions.
Along the way, Sunzi and several other children touched it out of curiosity, and even touched it with their faces, which was very funny.
Compared to Sunzi and the others, the remnants of the Blood Dynasty seem a little confused. They are now considered members of the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group. In other words, this will also be their home in the future?
The Kenyan and Hai tribe students brought by Shen Yan were so amazed by the beauty of the journey that they could not say anything.
Look at the small pavilion. There are stone benches and tables in the pavilion. How does it feel to rest there leisurely for a while?
And the rockery and flowing water around the pavilion are so beautiful.
Those sea tribes, actually... In fact, it’s okay if they don’t live in the sea. It’s okay if they live in these small lakes built with rockeries.
In this world full of adventure, crisis, poverty, and struggle, this place is like a paradise.
Along the way, I couldn't bear to close my eyes.
When I first purchased the residence, I took the regiment into consideration.
() Will recruit new people, so the resident purchase is very large. ()

In addition, Chinese gardens are famous for their circuitous corridors and pavilions. Some people will linger on even a small bridge or a small arch for a long time. If they were given a camera, they would probably be able to take pictures of a small scene for several hours.
Shen Yan took the people shopping for a long time before finishing the shopping.
It was already evening, and Shen Yan thought that the other members of the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group had almost returned, and they had just arranged the rooms for everyone in the new "station".
In the past, everyone was crowded into one warehouse, which was very inconvenient. Now they are divided according to families.
Because the houses in private gardens are all organized into small courtyards, many households can be accommodated in one courtyard, creating the feeling of a courtyard.
Of course, each courtyard will be taken care of by the households living there in the future. Shen Yan does not have the money to hire specialized people to take care of it. There are many things to pay attention to in taking care of such a garden. Shen Yan will take care of it in his future life. Teach slowly.
He also asked people to call back Aunt Dong and others who were doing business at the gate of the city, as well as other people from the Tiger and Leopard mercenary group who were out. Today was a special day and they had to go overseas in advance.
When everyone came back, still in shock, Shen Yan began to divide the courtyards according to the situation of the courtyard just now.
"Eight households can live in Cuizhuyuan, including Father Dong's family, Uncle Guo..."
Start distributing them side by side, no one is left behind.
"Tingyuyuan, Bamboo Shoots, Holy Infant..."
These children have lost their parents, so they have their own household. Shen Yan considers that they will start a family when they grow up, so it is appropriate to give them to one household first.
Ant-Man Ayi's family was also assigned to a household. Logically speaking, if the members recruited in the group had a place to live outside, they would not need to be assigned. However, Shen Yan also understood the situation of Ayi's family and the living conditions were not good.
Then there are the latest additions, the remnants of the Blood Dynasty.
From now on, this will also be their home.
As well as Gaia, Bozi, the old wizard Uther, and Dark Moon Archbishop Geras were also assigned residences. These powerful or experienced people were what Shen Yan wanted to win over.
After sharing the accommodation, Shen Yan said: "Let's go back and settle down first. We should have dinner together later."
Shen Yan went to Tingyuyuan because several children were assigned here. Although adults were also assigned to live here for easy care, Shen Yan still had to come and take a look to feel relieved.
Pushing open a side room, bamboo shoots were rolling happily on the ground.
His house is so beautiful too.
It's so clean that you don't have to worry about getting dirty if you roll on the floor.
The clothes are very spacious. When you open the window, you can see the courtyard. There are flower beds and flower stands in the courtyard. It is so beautiful. If there was such a courtyard before, they would have gone crazy.
Several other children were also opening the windows, laughing at each other.
The joy is unimaginable, even a child knows what a good life is.
The faces of the adults living here are all smiling. From today on, they may become the envy of everyone.
If Shen Yan knew what they were thinking, he would definitely reply that this only solved the housing problem, and was still far from a truly beautiful life.
() far away.
But he also understood the thoughts of these mercenaries,
For the previous sufferings,
This kind of life is indeed beautiful enough. It is as beautiful as a bubble dream. I am really afraid of waking up.
Then there is the matter of taking students to school, these students, they come from far away places.
Shen Yan had already thought about their housing issues on the road. First, they would find a place to rent in the Mercenary City. Second, the school would provide them with dormitories, and of course they would need to charge some accommodation fees.
The school is right next to the station.
Compared with the exquisite beauty of the residence, the school is more spacious.
In the school surrounded by walls, there is first a square paved with bluestone slabs, steps one by one, and stone railings with unique patterns carved on them.
Shen Yan couldn't help but think of People's Square.
This place is good, because there are many students, so he has to use Soul Waves to teach. If the weather is good, it would be good to arrange the students in the square. Of course, Soul Waves is not blocked by objects, and it is no problem for them to stay in the dormitory for classes.
Then there are school buildings one by one.
It is exactly the same as the ancient school building. Looking inside from the open window, the bright school building is neatly arranged with tables and stools.
There are also some buildings such as library halls and pavilions where teachers live.
Shen Yan thought to himself that the ancestors had far-reaching plans. If their school only had Shen Yan as a teacher, it would naturally not need a pavilion for the husband to live in. But when the school develops to a large scale, it might be necessary to teach other teachers. .
This world is very dangerous. Just studying is definitely not enough. These students also need the ability to protect their families and homes. For example, teachers who teach fighting and combat experience are definitely needed. Fighting and combat experience are not soul waves. It can be done.
With so many students, a lot of teachers are needed.
Finally there are the students’ dormitories.
The student dormitory was a common bunkhouse in ancient times, and many people could sleep in one room.
As a student, it is impossible to have the luxury of arranging a room for each of them.
But this kind of room is not bad. The small lotus pond in front of the room gives the place a unique peaceful atmosphere.
The nature of heaven and earth that China pays attention to is actually reflected in every detail.
On the way, Shen Yan had already collected the basic information of the students, and now he only needed to arrange them according to the roster.
Try to place Kenyan and Kenyan students in the same dormitory, but of course it won't be exactly right, so there will be cases where Kenyan and Hainan students are in the same dormitory.
This is their unique student era, and a different kind of life is just the beginning.
Shen Yan said: "Students are tired after a long journey. Stay in the dormitory and have a good rest. You can also stroll around the school, but do not leave the school. I believe you have heard of the chaotic name of our mercenary city."
Students are not allowed to leave school alone for their safety.
"Remember, I will give you a student meal after a while, so don't miss the meal time."
These students were brought by Shen Yan on a large ferry. In fact, there were not many students. There were still many students from Kenya who were studying on the road.
A group of students: "..."
I haven’t had any feelings on the big ferry yet.
Sleep,
Only now did they discover,
They left their hometown and came to a strange city they had never seen before.
Because of their young age, they definitely miss leaving home for the first time, but everything around them is full of novelty and differentness. Even the sea people they come into contact with are somewhat different from the humans they have only come into contact with before.
So in addition to the discomfort of leaving home for the first time, I was also full of expectations and curiosity.
They are the first people in this era to step out of their own cities and live together with all races in the big world, the people on the cusp of the wave.
Shen Yan arranged the students and patrolled some more. Seeing that these students were just curious about their unique school and were quite content, Shen Yan returned to the station with peace of mind.
Anyway, it's close, and someone can be arranged to patrol at any time.
Inside the station, only the members of the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group are left.
This time I went out for a long time, and everyone was happy to come back safely.
Coupled with the surprises brought to everyone by the new station, the atmosphere was almost like the Chinese New Year.
In addition to the children, the adults are also taking advantage of their free time to look at their new home bit by bit. The feeling is a little different from when they watched it with Shen Yan just now.
Like a dream.
It is estimated that they have to watch carefully for a long time every day, and they don't know how long this situation will last.
The sky started to get dark, so Zhu Zi and others lit the oil lamps and placed them on the stone lantern stand: "Shen Yan, is this how the oil lamps are placed?"
Haha, even their oil lamps became so beautiful after they were placed on the stone lantern stand.
Shen Yan nodded.
Warm atmosphere, it's like a big family here.
"Shen Yan, I almost got lost in our station just now. The ancestors carved beautiful patterns on the long corridor. I looked at it while walking, and then I went to Dad Dong's place."
Shen Yan thought to himself, he is not familiar with it yet, but once he becomes familiar with it, he will probably be able to see every corner clearly.
Others were also having a lively discussion, and the topic naturally revolved around the brothers who had just returned, asking about their experience of this outing, and talking about their new residence, new school, their new room, and the group of students.
Shen Yan didn't rest. He just watched Aunt Dong kill a lot of chickens and ducks.
It happened that the kimchi he had made before was already very tasty, so he made another dish of old duck soup and stir-fried chicken with sauerkraut based on the dinner made by Aunt Dong and others.
It’s been a while since I added new dishes to the brothers in the group.
While waiting for the dinner to celebrate his return, Shen Yan chatted with everyone wordlessly.
Unconsciously, the conversation came to Gaia.
We were not familiar with His Highness Gaia before, so it was difficult for Shen Yan to ask many questions, but this time we have experienced the Kenya crisis together, so we can be considered familiar with each other.
Shen Yan was very interested in Gaia, and of course he wanted to learn more about the blood tyrant who seemed to Shen Yan to be very bizarre through Gaia.
In Shen Yan's perception, the Blood Tyrant is too unique, like an alternative in this era, but it is something that Shen Yan is very familiar with.
Fascinating him, wanting to know more.
Shen Yan asked leisurely: "Your Highness Gaia, they say that you practice the snake sloughing immortality technique to live forever. Is there really such a magical secret technique in this world?"
Chinese people have been curious about immortality throughout history. Shen Yan studied history, and there are countless records of immortality in history. Of course, this is also an unsolved mystery in the world.
Shen Yan's question is not only of interest to him, but also to people in this world, otherwise Gaia wouldn't have so many followers.
At some unknown time, members of the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group, the old wizard Uther, and Dark Moon Archbishop Geras also gathered around.
Gaia pondered, like a meditative reminiscence, and then a deep voice sounded.
This is a story about the secret of eternal life.
Gaia: "Except for God and the Immortal, there is no eternal life in this world."
"Until he appeared, everyone called him a tyrant and a killer, but he also had a little-known identity. He was an expert in the study of blood sources... Throughout the entire era, no one had done research on blood sources. Can be more knowledgeable than him..."!
