When the time reached 8:40, a drizzle began to fall on the mighty Tianzhou Lake. The fine raindrops connected with the lake surface, and the whole world became lingering and moist.
Those walking by the lake, fishing, and looking out from upstairs... couldn't help but be surprised when they saw this scene.
“Huh? Why does it only rain on the lake?”
“It’s amazing that there’s not a drop of rain on the shore.”
In the rain, a red koi carp as long as an arm jumped out of the water, drew a perfect arc in mid-air, and then plunged into the water.
Where it fell into the water, a lotus leaf broke through the water and grew. In the blink of an eye, it grew from the size of a copper coin to the size of a millstone. The fresh and green lotus leaves are refreshingly green, spreading their leaves on the water.
The rainwater hits the lotus leaves and gathers into small water droplets.
“Ah! Why did a lotus leaf grow on the lake?”
"It's late autumn now, and the lotus flowers have all withered. This lotus leaf is really strangely alive."
“Look, koi!”
Every time the koi jumps out of the water, a lotus leaf will grow on the lake. Later, it will jump out of the water more and more frequently and faster, and the lotus leaves on the lake will become one in the blink of an eye.
More and more people gathered around the lake, watching with admiration.
When the lake near the villa was completely occupied by bright green lotus leaves and smoky purple water lilies, the rain stopped and wisps of mist appeared on the lake.
In the hazy mist, the entire Tianzhou Lake is rendered into a beautiful fairyland.
A gorgeous building boat slid over from the depths of the lake. When its full view was revealed to everyone, everyone present exclaimed in amazement.
Because the boat was actually floating on the water, about one meter away from the water.
There was a burst of ethereal music like fairy music from the ship, and then, several women in elegant clothes came to the deck with dancing steps while playing the musical instruments in their hands.
There was not enough space on the deck for them to perform, so they jumped directly from the ship.
“Ah!” someone exclaimed.
He saw the women falling on the lotus leaves, as if their bodies were weightless. The lotus leaves were still standing tall and graceful, not being crushed at all.
“Could these be immortals?”
The first group of women used lotus leaves as a stage. More women filed out of the cabin. After dancing on the deck for a while, they also jumped on the lotus leaves.
Even though there are so many people performing together, there is no confusion at all. It just makes people feel that the scene is grand and magnificent.
When no more women came out of the boat, the entire boat turned into a phoenix. Its gorgeous red wings spread out, covering most of the lake, and it raised its head to the sky and let out a clear chirp, which went up to nine heavens.
"Phoenix, this is the legendary phoenix..." Pei Hao looked at it with fascination and murmured.
The women who were originally standing on the lotus leaves also transformed and turned into birds.
Cranes, parrots, mandarin ducks, partridges, thrushes, magpies... countless birds fly into the air, circling in mid-air and singing, forming various beautiful patterns.
Finally, the pattern is determined as a bridge, a bridge made entirely of birds.
In the eyes of people with amazement, the bridge became illusory in the blink of an eye and turned into a brilliant rainbow.
When the rainbow hangs in the sky, the fog on the lake is evaporated, and people's vision returns to clarity.
Looking at the lake again, are there any lotus leaves anywhere?
"Could it be that everything just now was just an illusion?" Bai Xiaoshu couldn't believe it.
Indeed, this is a fantasy, a fantasy planned by Shen Yizhi and executed by Mirage Pearl and Koi Chijin, specially prepared for the opening of the villa.
However, this is not over yet.
I don’t know when the rainbow turned into a glorious and solemn dragon gate, filled with fairy spirit, and bursts of fairy sounds washed people’s hearts like a yellow bell.
The koi carp that appeared earlier broke out of the water and swam straight towards the dragon gate. In the process of traveling against the current, its body becomes larger and longer.
Finally, when it jumped up from the water, everyone held their breath and watched intently, for fear of disturbing it.
The koi successfully jumped over the dragon gate, and the moment it fell into the water, it completely transformed into a golden dragon!
The whole body is golden and majestic, the body is slender, and the beauty is full of strength.
It rose up from the water and let out a long and shocking roar.
"Ah! Real dragon!" Someone knelt down on the spot and kowtowed to the golden dragon from a distance.
The phoenix that originally disappeared also appeared from the clouds.
It seems to be in harmony with the golden dragon.
The dragons and phoenixes gathered together and showed off a gorgeous dance skill in the sky.
Finally, a dragon and a phoenix flew towards a higher place, and their figures gradually turned into a black dot until they completely disappeared.
Everyone was shocked for a long time and stood by the lake unwilling to leave.
Shen Yizhi couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene. It seemed that the twenty-minute illusion was not in vain, and the effect was very good.
It’s just that everyone seems a little unable to recover?
This is when Xiao San, the all-powerful housekeeper, comes into play.
As for her, the owner of the village, she hasn’t shown up yet.
"Everyone, what happened just now is just an illusion. Now, I declare that Mingyue Villa is officially opened. Anyone holding an invitation, please follow me."
In addition to inviting the best people from all walks of life, Shen Yizhi also sent posts to a group of friends he met in Langcheng.
Those like Zhou Ruonan from Hongdou Pavilion, Zhou Caifeng from Tianbao Pavilion, City Lord Xie Yun and his family, Su Guangbai and Su Zhe from Huichun Hall, and of course her master, Master Changfeng, Wang Hexian and others who are already in Lijiazhuang are also indispensable.
There are dozens of people in all kinds of places.
Although there are not many, almost everyone is well-connected and has a huge network of connections. As long as they are shocked, are they afraid that the people who pay attention to them will not know?
After entering the villa, everyone felt a clear and warm breeze blowing against their faces. It was as warm as spring, and there was no coolness in the late autumn outside. Inside and outside the village, there is a completely different climate.
The air here is extremely fresh, with a hint of sweetness, and your chest seems to be purified when you breathe.
Ordinary people only feel that staying here is extremely comfortable, but the monks present have already stirred up a storm in their hearts.
The spiritual energy here is so strong!
No wonder the surrounding scenery is so vibrant.
Walking around the screen wall, walking through the cloister, crossing the small bridge and running water, and walking through the flowers and willow trees, along the way, everyone felt that they were suddenly in a fairyland, and they could not see it with their eyes.
About a quarter of an hour later, Xiao San led everyone into Chunming Hall, where the banquet was held.
Shen Yizhi’s plan for today is to have a good meal first, watch the performances while eating, and then have a lively atmosphere, and then proceed to the highlight—the auction!
She is committed to building Mingyue Villa into a gold-selling cave that integrates eating, drinking and entertainment. Of course, she must first show everyone what good things are in the villa.
