Chapter 166

(๑òᆺó๑)

Inside the hall.

Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng sat high on the throne, with core heavy ministers led by Chancellor Li Si, General Wang Jian, Shangqing Meng Yi, and Tingwei Feng Quji, as well as the eldest son Fu Su, arranged below him.

Everyone's gaze was focused on the young man in white fluttering in the hall, standing with his hands behind his back.

"Immortal Gu has bestowed upon me, upon my Great Qin, the opportunity for longevity, the warning of the Sky Screen, and the merit of descending today to give guidance."

Ying Zheng's voice was steady and powerful, echoing in the hall.

"I have decided to honor Immortal Gu as the Great Qin National Teacher, with a rank equal to the Three Dukes, not needing to bow when seeing the Emperor, wearing a sword and shoes into the hall, participating in military and state secrets, enjoying a salary of ten thousand shi, and..."

He paused, looked at Gu Shanhe, his tone carrying a bit of consultation and respect:

"... should build a mansion for the National Teacher to settle the immortal carriage. I wonder if the National Teacher has any intended location?"

"I will immediately order the Shaofu and the Jiangzuo Shaofu to survey and start construction, and must build a mansion for the National Teacher that matches the immortal status."

Build a mansion?

Hearing this, Gu Shanhe's heart moved slightly.

Living in the Qin palace is certainly imposing, but there are many rules, and it is not comfortable, not as comfortable as having his own independent house.

Moreover, since he wants to pretend... ahem, since he wants to act in the identity of an "Immortal," this residence naturally must have an "Immortal atmosphere."

"Build a mansion?"

Gu Shanhe shook his head lightly, a trace of unfathomable smile on the corners of his mouth.

"Brother Zheng has a heart."

"However, this seat is used to being a crane in the clouds, not liking civil engineering, wasting money and labor. As for the residence, this seat has its own arrangements."

Own arrangements?

Ying Zheng and the ministers were all stunned.

An immortal descends, could it be that he brings his own house?

Gu Shanhe didn't say more, called out the system panel in his mind, and entered the mall directly.

He entered "portable residence" in the search bar, and dozens of options jumped out instantly, from simple wild tents to sci-fi style mobile bases, dazzling.

He quickly filtered and locked onto a product called "Future Style · Luxury Smart Villa."

Product description: Adopts future nano-folding technology, usually a metal capsule the size of a palm, which can automatically unfold into a modern luxury villa covering about 500 square meters and three stories high within ten minutes after activation.

The main body of the villa is high-strength alloy and special glass, with built-in independent energy (solar + high-energy battery), water circulation system, smart temperature control, and basic furniture and appliances (simplified version).

The style is simple and modern, with a small garden and parking pad (requires leveling the foundation).

Note: To conform to the current era's cognition, it can be adjusted to "Glazed Crystal Palace" appearance effect.

Price: 300,000 emotion points.

300,000 emotion points, for Gu Shanhe who currently has a balance of 20 million, is a drop in the bucket.

And this villa has complete functions, its own energy, and can adjust its appearance, which is simply tailored for the current scene.

"Exchange, and activate the 'Glazed Crystal Palace' appearance effect." Gu Shanhe muttered in his heart.

【Exchange successful, consuming 300,000 emotion points.】

【Host's current emotion point balance: 19,000,000 points.】

【"Luxury Smart Villa" has been distributed to the host's system space. Appearance effect loading complete, can be activated at any time.】

Gu Shanhe's consciousness sank into the system space and saw the silver capsule quietly suspended, emitting a cold metallic light.

With a thought, the capsule had quietly appeared in his wide sleeves.

"Brother Zheng, everyone,"

Gu Shanhe raised his eyes and looked at everyone, "This seat's residence is not here. Follow me."

After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the hall with a calm gait.

Ying Zheng and the ministers looked at each other, although they had doubts, but the "Immortal" spoke, who dared not follow?

Ying Zheng stood up first, Li Si, Wang Jian, Meng Yi, Feng Quji, Fu Su, and others hurriedly followed, a group of more than a dozen people, mighty and carrying a bit of curiosity and anxiety, followed Gu Shanhe out of the hall and through heavy palaces.

Gu Shanhe didn't go far, just stopped at the edge of the palace, on a relatively flat and open space not far from the palace wall.

This place seemed to be a drill ground or an idle school field, the ground was rammed with yellow earth, quite flat.

"This place is still okay."

Gu Shanhe looked around and nodded slightly.

Everyone was puzzled.

This place is empty, could it be that the Immortal wants to build a hut here? That would be too simple.

Only to see Gu Shanhe raise his right hand, his sleeves moving without wind.

He turned his palm over, and a "metal block" about the size of an egg, completely silver and bright, with strange luster flowing on the surface, appeared in his palm.

The "metal block" had a smooth shape, integrated, not like something carved in the mortal world.

"This is this seat's temporary residence."

Gu Shanhe explained lightly.

Under the gaze of everyone's suspicious eyes, Gu Shanhe gently threw the silver object into the air!

The metal block left his hand, did not land, but floated in the air about one person high, spinning around, and the luster flowing on the surface became more and more prosperous.

"Swift!"

Gu Shanhe shouted lightly, his fingers like a sword, pointing vaguely at the spinning "Mustard Seed Core."

The next moment—

"Buzz!!!"

A gentle yet incomparably dazzling white light pillar erupted from the small metal block, rushing straight into the sky!

The light pillar was not dazzling, but contained a kind of indescribable mysterious Dao rhyme, illuminating the range of dozens of zhang around it.

"Oh my god!"

"This... is this Immortal Law?!"

"Miracle! A true miracle!"

Exclamations rose uncontrollably from the ministers behind Ying Zheng.

Even Qin Shi Huang himself, who had seen many storms, couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly and hold his breath.

The white light lasted for about three breaths, then began to shrink and condense inward.

As the white light shrank, the outline of a building took shape rapidly from virtual to real in the center of the white light.

That was a strange building they had never seen before!

The whole body seemed to be carved from a huge, pure, and transparent "crystal" or "glaze," refracting colorful, hazy brilliance in the sun.

The building has three floors, with simple and smooth lines and distinct edges, completely different from the heavy and complex architectural style advocated by the Qin Dynasty.

Huge, flat "glazed" walls replaced wooden pillars and rammed earth, and there seemed to be thin gauze-like curtains behind the walls.

The roof was not tiles, but the same material of inclined planes, shining in the sun.

Around the building, there was a circle of low, equally crystal-clear "glazed" railings, enclosing a small courtyard paved with strange smooth stone slabs.

In one corner of the courtyard, there was even a small, curved path paved with white gravel (pebbles), leading to an exquisite octagonal pavilion (balcony), and the pavilion was also made of "glaze," with a top like an umbrella cover.

The whole building, against the background of the ancient Xianyang City, appeared so abrupt, and so... dreamy.

As if it didn't belong to this era, didn't belong to this world.

The white light dissipated completely, and the three-story "Glazed Immortal Mansion," which was beautiful and like a crystal palace, had stood steadily on the open space, silently emitting a quiet and mysterious aura.

Ying Zheng, Li Si, Wang Jian, Meng Yi, Feng Quji, Fu Su, as well as the accompanying guards and eunuchs, all stood stiffly in place as if hit by a freezing spell, looking at this scene that violated common sense with wide eyes.

Creating things out of thin air?

What kind of supernatural power is this? What kind of immortal means?!

Even though Ying Zheng's will was as hard as iron and stone, his chest was churning at this moment, and the last trace of doubt about Gu Shanhe's "Immortal" identity vanished in front of this dreamy "Glazed Immortal Mansion."

This is not the illusion of mortal alchemists, this is true, heaven-changing great supernatural power!

"National Teacher... is truly a divine person!"

For a long time, Ying Zheng let out a long turbid breath, full of emotion.

The ministers behind him bowed one after another, their eyes full of awe and fanaticism.

Gu Shanhe was quite satisfied with everyone's reaction; this was the effect he wanted.
