The layout of the formation is a time-consuming and labor-intensive project.

Moreover, not all places are suitable for setting up formations.

Arranging formations is essentially a process of communicating with heaven and earth and borrowing power from heaven and earth.

And the power of heaven and earth is so mysterious, vast and complex, how can it be so easy to borrow it.

With the power of heaven and earth, the right time, place and people are indispensable.

Therefore, the requirements for terrain and feng shui are extremely high. What kind of formations should be arranged in different terrains, and what kind of formations should not be arranged, are all intricate and complicated.

If the formation is studied to the depths, it can communicate with the world and even change the world.

According to the description of the old magic stick, in the depths of the distant universe, there was once a peerless figure named Yutian God Emperor. He used thousands of stars as chess pieces to arrange formations, making the entire star field mysterious and unpredictable. In the restricted area, you can kill the immortals with a single thought, which is extremely terrifying.

This is also one of the few people that Li Mu heard from the old magic stick that he admired and admired. Most of the time, the old magic stick always had the posture of "I am the second in the world and I am the boss", which shows that this emperor What a supreme grace the Heavenly God Emperor has.

It's a pity that the old magic stick occasionally mentioned it once or twice, but didn't say anything in detail.

When Li Mu asked again in detail, the old magic stick was unwilling to say more. He only said that the vast universe is vast and vast. There are so many stars and star fields. It can be said that they are like a sea of ​​smoke, countless. The Emperor of the Sky in his mouth , is a figure in the depths of the endless universe. He is too far away from the earth, the solar system, and even the Milky Way, etc. Even the Great Luo Jinxian cannot cross such a distance again.

Using stars as formation chess pieces was a realm that Li Mu could not even imagine.

What he can do now is to use various materials paid by Jianghu sects such as Tianlong Gang, Huya Sect, etc., to make some changes to the terrain, vegetation, flowing water, etc. around the county government office, so that they can gather and receive Qi, and then Use the power of this 'qi' to protect the county government.

This is the initial stage of the ‘formation’.

This is also the stage where Li Mu can try now.

For three consecutive days, Li Mu had no time to spare.

He measured every inch of land around the county government office and dug it himself, digging down five or six meters to observe the composition of the soil and the richness of underground water. He also made statistics and summarized all the vegetation types around the county government office. , the twenty-four-hour water output of each spring, and even the number of ant nests, snakes, insect animals, etc., were carefully counted.

For Li Mu, setting up a formation is like doing a complex math problem. He must ensure that every step of solving the problem is flawless in order to finally get the correct answer.

The old magic stick is usually crazy and unreliable, but he is extremely rigorous in setting up formations. Even if he goes out to perform an ordinary ritual, even if he is inspecting the ghost house, he is meticulous. This kind of rigor has affected Li Mu.

Among the many mythological novels on the earth, the protagonist can set up a formation by waving his hand, throwing down any magic weapon, or carving some patterns and inscriptions. That is nonsense.

The real formation will not be that simple. Instead, various factors need to be considered, and even some extremely small details cannot be missed at all.

For example, ignoring the spring water may cause the foundation of the formation to be corroded by the ground water and become ineffective. Ignoring the ant nest may cause the absorbed 'qi' to run away due to the expansion of the ant nest. Ignoring the composition of the soil layer, once there is a sand layer underground, It may cause the True Eye Jade buried underground to sink, causing the energy of the entire formation to run rampant...

It is no exaggeration to say that setting up a formation is similar to building a building, requiring complex processes.

For three whole days, Li Mu was extremely busy.

As a temporary assistant, Li Zhaochen, who has been following Li Mu for the past few days, felt strange in his heart. He kept muttering secretly, what was going on? Could it be that the county magistrate suddenly changed his temper? Why is he so interested in soil, mountains, rivers, flowers and plants? Interested, are you tired of being the devil?

Li Zhaochen is the brother-in-law of warden Zhen Meng.

He performed well at critical moments in the past few days, so when Feng Yuanxing and Zhen Meng were recovering from injuries and no one was available, Li Mu promoted the young jailer to a personal guard and took him with him.

This little jailer, who was just eighteen years old this year, was full of respect for Li Mu, the county official.

This kind of respect is not only due to the difference in official positions between superiors and subordinates, but also because of the strength that Li Mu has shown in these major sword events in the past, the protection of his subordinates and his almost invincible strength. It fits the definition of a hero for a young man with a strong heart.

Or to be more precise, it should be worship.

Li Zhaochen, like other jailers, has become a fanatical believer and admirer of Li Mu.

"Basically done."

Li Mu once again measured the entire area around the county government office. After making sure that nothing was missed, he returned to his study and started drawing.

In half a day, a total of thirty-six chapters were drawn.

He called Li Zhaochen in and asked him to take the drawings. According to the drawings, he began to transform the environment around the entire county government.

"Remember, the drawings must not be leaked. Read it once, remember it, and then lead the team yourself and order people to do it. After all the work is completed, bring the drawings back to me accurately."

Li Mu made arrangements very seriously.

This tone made Li Zhaochen feel the importance of this matter and the great responsibility on his shoulders. Being able to do such an important thing for the county magistrate made him excited.

"Don't worry, sir. Even if I lose my life, I will never lose a single drawing." Li Zhaochen said, patting his chest.

Li Mu smiled: "Life is still important."

Li Zhaochen laughed.

Following the Lord for the past few days, he has figured out the Lord's temper. In fact, in the eyes of those in the world, the County Lord, who is as terrifying as the devil and the god of murder, is basically a very easy-going and approachable person.

Soon, the large-scale production movement to transform the periphery of the county government began with great vigor.

Many Jianghu people were taken out of the prison in batches, still in shackles, holding shovels, chisels, buckets and other tools in their hands. Under the supervision of the soldiers and guards, they began to follow the requirements of "Chief Engineer" Li Zhaochen , dig canals, dig ant nests, dig deep pits, move boulders, plant trees...

In the past, the wealthy gangsters who used to be so powerful on the martial arts road in the northwest, doing things like murder and arson, are now doing farm work honestly. This scene is extremely funny, but each of them dares to get angry. Dare not say anything, even [Tianlong Yijian] Dongfang Jian and [Iron Hand Holding the Sky] Tie Zhendong, one holds a shovel in one hand, and the other carries an earthen basket on his back, working honestly.

They have already heard about the new envoy, the murder of the county seat, the disastrous return of the Taibai Sword Sect, and the detention of the Supreme Elders of the two major sects. Moreover, there are also various bizarre rumors. Between these requests, Spread, it is said that Li Mu is the incarnation of a great demon, eats human flesh, drinks human blood, Li Mu likes to torture people, Li Mu likes pickling human flesh with pickled vegetables, etc...

These legends scared all the desperadoes out of their wits.

They were still worried about making trouble. They were afraid that one day, the big devil Li Mu would be in a bad mood and arrest them and make them drunk. Therefore, they acted as honestly as possible and listened to the words of the jailers without any resistance.

Li Mu did not pay too much attention to this process and did not personally supervise it.

Because the drawings he handed over to Li Zhaochen were all about simple civil engineering projects, such as digging new wells around the county government, guiding underground water, building canals, arranging rockeries, clearing ant nests, planting trees, etc. Even if some people , and it is impossible to see any mystery from these simple projects.

Of course, such movement still attracted the attention of some interested people. For example, [Feng Junzi] Wang Chen.

This middle-aged warlock in green clothes comes to the county government office every day and stands outside the yellow line to observe.

He could see that the materials used in the renovation around the county government were basically things that Li Mu had 'extorted' from the Tianlong Gang and other Jianghu sects that day. But even so, he still couldn't figure out what Li Mu was. Why go to all the trouble to extort these things, and why do we need to make such changes to the county government.

In his impression, the young Taibai County Lord was definitely not a person who was greedy for pleasure.

The more he couldn't understand and guess, the more curious he became.

Even after returning to the tall building in the manor, I was still thinking about it.

On a high-rise building, the little boy Qin Zheng was leaning against the window table on the top floor of the high-rise building, doing his daily routine. The princess Qin Zhen, dressed in a simple and plain dress, without makeup, with picturesque features, stood in the corridor outside the window. , looking outside.

"Mr. Wang."

When Qin Zheng saw Wang Chen arriving, he stood up and bowed respectfully as a disciple.

Wang Chen smiled and nodded, asking him to continue his homework while he came to the corridor outside.

He discovered that the direction Princess Qin Zhen was looking was exactly the location of the county government office.

The entire Taibai County is built on the mountain. The county government office is located at the top of the mountain city and has the highest geographical location. The Lanxiang Pavilion where Wang Chen and others are located is below the county government office. However, because Lanxiang Pavilion has six floors in total. , more than 30 meters high, you can just see the county government office when standing on the top corridor.

"Your Highness may have guessed, what is this little county master going to do?" Wang Chen opened the topic with a smile.

Qin Zhen shook her head slightly, frowned and said, "I can't guess."

Although she doesn't have a good impression of Li Mu and disdains Li Mu's character, she will never underestimate Li Mu's ability because of this. As a political creature who has experienced the ups and downs of the imperial capital, Qin Zhen understands character clearly. and ability, so she would not simply think that the transformation of the county government this time was just a project for Li Mu to pursue pleasure.

She couldn't guess what medicine Li Mu was selling in the gourd.

Of course, she didn't want to put too much thought into this aspect.

Because she had no interest in winning over a county magistrate with bad conduct, greed and cruelty. Even though Wang Chen had praised Li Mu many times, she still had no interest. The more things she heard about Li Mu, She became even more disgusted with Li Mu.

Once she was bitten by a snake and had been afraid of well ropes for ten years, she didn't want to make the same mistake again.

Qin Zhen was not even interested in knowing what Li Mu looked like.

"I can't guess." Wang Chen walked over, sighed, and said: "I can have a premonition that he is doing something big, but I can't figure it out at all. For so many years, this Li Mu is the only one A geek that I can’t understand at all.”

Qin Zhen did not answer the question.

Wang Chen sighed in his heart.

He knew the knot in Her Royal Highness's heart, but he didn't know how to solve it. If he missed Li Mu, it would definitely be a big loss. Wang Chen was extremely anxious, but he couldn't rush this matter.

Qin Zhen withdrew her gaze and said, "Is there any news from the east?"

Wang Chen's eyes suddenly froze, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and he said: "It has been confirmed that General Tang's widow and orphans will be escorted to Chang'an City in ten days."

Qin Zhen nodded and stood quietly, thinking and weighing for a long time.

Finally, a look of determination flashed through the beautiful eyes of the Princess, and she spread her eyebrows and said: "Ten days later? It's so urgent...Okay, then we will set off in seven days and take a secret trip incognito." Chang'an City, Mr. Wang, please make arrangements in advance."

"This..." Wang Chen's expression changed drastically when he heard this: "Your Highness wants to go in person? No way."
