Chapter 135: Happy New Year, Ying Xue

There’s a lot of politics.

The specifics aren’t too complicated.

But after the numbers pile up, it creates a horrendous amount of work.

Xu Department has been dealt with until late at night, even with Wu Ying Xue accompanied by the side, sitting until the body is stiff, see the eyes sore.

It was good that both of them were innate martial artists.

With the qi and blood running once, all the discomfort in the body would dissipate.

“Snort~~”

“Snort~~”

Candle flames danced and burned in the bleak room.

Open up a small bright world.

Dispelling the darkness of the night, it illuminated the faces of the Xu system and the young girl, and at the same time, it also reflected the rough walls of the house clearly.

“When the warmth returns in the spring, Flatwater County will be the center until the surrounding area is occupied.”

“The Daqian side ……”

“Don’t bother for now.”

“Now is the best time, with other insurgent forces pulling attention, it will be hard to miss this time to get anything going.”

“Surabaya County, Blackwater County, Clearwater County, let’s target these.”

Flip through, view, annotate.

The Xu system’s eyes kept scanning, arranging next year’s marching route by integrating the information that was already available.

He was not a genius at handling politics.

Much less a naturally intelligent and wise person.

From the beginning to the end, the Xu system had been a grounded martial artist, and was now able to handle political affairs thanks to the infinite enhancement of adherence to the word.

Every so often, the Xu system’s ability to handle governmental affairs would be improved by the adherence back.

But.

The Hsu system has no intention of going deeper into politics.

In this world, coming out is about strength, handling political affairs is just to avoid internal chaos, and later you can let trusted people do it on your behalf.

Only strength is irreplaceable.

As the guide of the Survival Seeking Army, the Xu system’s current strength was far from enough.

“The first realm of the innate, viewing the reasoning of heaven and earth.”

“The second realm of the innate, containing the prana of martial arts.”

“The essence of the Realm of Viewing Reason is to utilize an innate martial artist’s perception to observe and mimic the world, allowing the qi and blood to operate in the perspective of heaven and earth.”

“As for the Embracing Prana realm, after the qi and blood have finished mimicking the workings of the heaven and earth, one uses the true intent of the Way of Wudao to move into the qi and blood heaven and earth, substituting the Way of Wudao for the Way of Heaven.”

“Only in this way can one see that God is not bad and completely perfect the Qi and Blood Inner Heaven and Earth.”

“Achieving Martial Human Immortality, the self is heaven and earth.”

Dimly lit house.

The Xu system handled the last of its political business.

A long, cloudy exhale of relief.

In his mind, many plans for the future development of the Seeking Life Army, as well as the next step in his own martial dao, rapidly flickered and intertwined.

These can’t be rushed, and it takes time to grind out results a little bit at a time.

As for today, it’s better to get an early night.

“Hard work, Yingxue.”

Xu System looked to his side, the young girl yawning, her eyes sleepy, obviously having been sleepy for a long time.

“It’s okay, sir.”

Wu Ying Xue said with a strong spirit.

Xu System shook his head and was about to tell the young girl to go back to sleep when a crackling sound from outside the house was what interrupted his words.

“The voice is ……”

“It sounds a bit like the sound of a fire object igniting and exploding.”

It’s more than that.

The sound of a booming crowd also came from a distance.

Although it doesn’t sound very clear because of the distance, you can feel the joy of the people in it.

“Is it celebrating New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day?”

The Xu system was curious.

He stepped towards the top floor of the official house, the young girl following behind, equally curious about the sounds of the outside world.

Soon.

As Department Xu walked to the top floor of the official residence, with the difference in height, he could easily see that there were fires lit up in various parts of Pingshui County.

It wasn’t a house on fire or a firework explosion.

Instead, it’s a tower of stone standing on a base.

Rough stones, stacked in layers in a specific arrangement, until they form the shape of a tall and strange tower.

People throw dry wood into the stone towers.

Ignite, bloom, rise.

They cheered as they circled the stone tower.

Watch as the blazing fire engulfs the stone tower, illuminating excited, withered faces in the bleak night.

There really isn’t much to do or see in Flatwater County today, and hunger presses on everyone’s brain nerves, making people numb.

But on New Year’s Eve, which is the night of the Resignation.

People who are poor can find ways to celebrate that are uniquely their own.

“Sir, what a hoot.”

The top floor of the government house is very windy.

The wind whistled and blew against his clothes.

Wu Ying Xue stood beside Xu System, her hands propped up on the wooden railing, her body leaning forward slightly as she looked into the distance with great surprise.

“Yes, I haven’t seen, in a long time, such a lively scene.”

Hsu System Response.

The eyes reflected a cluster of sizzling fire.

Sparks erupted, dry wood snapped, and orange firelight pulsed through the darkness, lighting the silent sea of stars into a magnificent red-orange.

Leaping, blooming, blossoming.

As the day wore on, the cold winds of the night howled more and more.

Wind swept the fire, fire burning the wind, fire and wind in all parts of Pingshui County entangled, forming a winding dance “fire dragon”.

“Sir!”

“Sir!”

Wu Ying Xue looked even more excited.

While his eyes were staring at the splendid flower fires in the city, his hand was pulling on the corner of Xu System’s coat, constantly sharing with Xu System the divine splendor of those flames.

Though she could totally create a cooler image if she wanted to do it herself.

But that’s different.

The young girl loved the scene before her, the sight of the people bustling about, and the fact that she was watching it with the Xu system, sharing it in the night.

Gradual.

The flames burned more furiously.

The voices of the people in Flatwater County, however, suddenly lagged for a moment.

The lull was followed by an even more exuberant cheer, for at that very moment just now, time had officially crossed over New Year’s Eve to the first day of the New Year.

The poor people greeted each other.

Wish each other a happy new year.

“Sir,” Wu Ying Xue gazed at the bustling scene for a long time before suddenly turning around, wanting to say something to Department Xu.

It coincided with a howling wind.

The wind was so loud it blurred the young girl’s voice.

But through the young girl’s expression, and the opening and closing of her lips, Department Xu was able to discern what had been said.

“Happy New Year, sir.”

erased by the clamor of the wind.

It’s the maiden’s blessing on the Hsu system.

The Hsu system gave a response.

Under the vast and boundless night sky, witnessed by the twinkling of the stars, and the sound of the hunting wind.

Reach out.

Help the young girl insert the hairpin that was blown diagonally by the wind.

To which he spoke softly, “Happy New Year, Yingxue,”

It’s pretty, isn’t it?

……

[You had a great New Year’s Eve]

[Since you came to the world of martial arts, this is the first time you’ve experienced, besides the threat of demons and the coldness of winter, a New Year’s Eve with a lively and cozy presence]

“The maiden sends her blessings.

[You also bless the maiden]

[Under the night sky, she again pesters you to count the stars, but the light in her eyes is no less bright than the stars, and you again oblige her and tell the number of the last time]
