Chapter 354 Enlightenment
The people in Sanqing Mountain couldn't sleep either, so they all sat on the roof to watch the stars, mainly the Xuanmiao and Miaozhen stars, and explained the observed constellations to them.

Wang Feiyin led the rest of the group to create the atmosphere, responsible for making people exclaim and applaud.

Pan Jun liked this role the most. She grabbed Pan Xiaohei's two paws and slapped them loudly, which made Pan Xiaohei so angry that he screamed and kicked her stomach, then bounced out and fell straight into Wang Feiyin's arms.

Wang Feiyin stretched out his hand and pinched its neck, then held it in his arms and caressed it. He took the time to glare at Pan Yun and said, "Don't always bully black cats."

Pan Yun snorted, "Big Brother is now nicer to a cat than to me."

The two were arguing when suddenly their hearts tightened and they both looked up at the sky at the same time.

Wang Feiyin: "Flying Star!"

Pan Yun: "Meteor!"

Miao Zhen stood up quickly, staring intently at the flying star that was flying towards the horizon.

Miao He had already screamed out loud, pinching Tao Yanbai and screaming, "It's a flying star, it's a flying star, I actually saw a flying star, is this a blessing or a curse?"

It was not until the meteor disappeared in the sky that Wang Feiyin and Tao Ji turned their heads to look at the silent Xuanmiao.

Xuanmiao's face was as gloomy as water, and he said in a deep voice: "It is a war. This means that the Ming Dynasty will not be very peaceful in the next few years."

Miao Zhen also nodded and said, "The star fell in the southwest. It seems that the battle of Luchuan will still have to be fought. The tail will sweep to Jiangnan. Does this mean that we in Jiangnan will also have to fight?"

Miao He: "Impossible, Jiangnan is not a border, how can we fight? Are those Japanese pirates so powerful that they want to come ashore from Zhejiang and Fujian to fight us?"

Tao Ji's face darkened. "If they dare to come up, we will make sure they never return!"

Xuanmiao glanced at him and said, "What do you believe in what Miaohe said?"

Tao Ji immediately restrained his expression and said flatteringly: "Then where do you think this should be?"

Xuanmiao was silent for a moment before saying, "It should be a civil unrest."

"Civil unrest?" Tao Ji frowned. "The people are not living well, but they won't rebel unless it's absolutely necessary. Will everyone have a hard time next year?"

Who knows this?

Astrology will not tell you everything, and you may not be able to fully understand what astrology wants to express.

The information was reduced by half and then by more than half. All they got from the astrology was just some superficial information and some warnings.

and……

Wang Feiyin stroked his beard and warned them: "You can observe the stars, but you can't trust them completely."

Miao Zhen was not convinced and asked, "Why?"

Wang Feiyin patted her head and said, "Because the stars indicate that it can be changed."

Miaozhen: "Can it be changed?"

Xuanmiao said: "Silly child, if it cannot be changed, why do the stars warn you?"

"It issues a warning so that people can make changes or prepare for the response in advance."

Not only Miao Zhenmiao and a few others, but also Pan Yun, who had never thought deeply about this, exclaimed, "So that's how it is."

"Okay," Wang Feiyin was now feeling sleepy, and he stood up and said, "I've watched the stars, seen the excitement, and learned a lot. Let's go back to sleep."

Wang Feiyin flew off the roof first, and Tao Ji and Xuan Miao also left.

The five juniors fell behind.

Miao Zhen asked Pan Yun, "Uncle Junior, did you just call a flying star a meteor?"

Pan Jun nodded: "Yes, but I think your name Feixing sounds better."

Miao He: "Then it's settled. From now on, when we see it, we will still call it Flying Star."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Pan Jun was feeling sleepy now. After dinner today, she rubbed her whole body twice and washed her hair. She felt refreshed now. She said, "I'm going to sleep until noon tomorrow. None of you can wake me up. Pan Xiaohei, you can't wake me up either."

"Meow--"

Miao He was very excited, "I want to sleep until noon too."

Tao Yanbai: "Miaohe, it's your turn to do the laundry tomorrow."

Miaohe just remembered and couldn't help but let out a "hmm" and looked directly at Wang Cong.

Wang Cong was about to respond when he saw her turn her head to look at Pan Yun, "Uncle Junior Master, help me."

Pan Jun thought of the large wooden barrel in the space that she had reused, and patted her chest and agreed, "No problem."

She paused and asked, "Are everyone's clothes sturdy?"

Miaozhen: "Our clothes from Sanqing Mountain may not have any other advantages, but they are definitely strong."

Pan Jun was relieved, "Okay, I'll help you wash it tomorrow when I wake up naturally."

Wang Cong: "...Miaohe, why didn't you call me? The water is so cold now. If you ask Junior Master to help you, Junior Master will be cold too."

After a heavy snowfall every year, the water in the Hanxing Pond in Sanqing Mountain would be as cold as ice, so they would go to fetch water from the Danjing to wash clothes, but it was not very warm either.

Therefore, Wang Cong and Tao Yanbai either boiled water for them to wash with hot water, or they helped to wash.

Tao Yanbai has been washing clothes for three consecutive days. He also wants to sleep in tomorrow, so he reminded Miaohe that this work needs to be circulated.

Miao He said, "Master Junior doesn't use his hands to wash clothes."

"If not hands, what can we use?" Wang Cong's eyes lit up. "Is there a magic spell to wash clothes?"

Pan Yun nodded and said, "Yes, I will teach you tomorrow."

The next day, the five of them stood together by the Hanxing Pond. Pan Yun first used magic to demonstrate how to wash clothes, which was actually using magic to stir the clothes, and then used the magic of controlling objects to send up a flying mallet to knock and hit...

Wang Cong: "...Is this a spell for washing clothes?"

Pan Yun nodded.

Wang Cong pulled the corner of his mouth, gave a thumbs up and said: "Little Master, you are amazing, your energy is really strong."

All his internal energy was transformed into Yuanli, so he could use the object control technique to point the hammer around in a circle at the Hanxing Pool. Want to wash clothes?

Does a piece of clothing leave a dantian empty?

Wang Cong turned around and was about to leave, but Pan Yun grabbed him and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? This one doesn't apply. There is another one."

She took out a large wooden barrel from the space with a clang, and said proudly: "Come, let's formally meet it. This is the laundry barrel I have been researching for a long time!"

Wang Cong: "Isn't this what you put in the cave to store water and snow?"

Pan Yun: "That's just a waste. Its real use is actually to wash clothes."

So, Wang Cong and Tao Yanbai then saw how clothes were washed in this wooden barrel.

The three of them poured all the dirty clothes into a large wooden barrel. Pan Yun used a water-drawing technique to draw water from the Hanxing Pond into the barrel. Miaohe then added a little soapy water and poured it into the barrel. Pan Yun slapped a talisman on the barrel, and the talisman drawn on the barrel was activated. The large barrel immediately began to shake.

It looked like there was a big monster in a wooden barrel trying to escape.

Wang Cong and Tao Yanbai, who were unprepared, were frightened and retreated three steps.

Tao Yanbai murmured, "This is too big a scene."

Wang Cong's eyes sparkled. He walked forward and stood on tiptoe to look into the wooden barrel. "Uncle Master, can this wooden barrel really wash clothes clean?"

"Of course," Pan Yun said confidently, "It's super clean."

Miaozhen: "It won't be dirty, it will just be broken."

Miaohe nodded.

Wang Cong's smile froze, "Bad?"

After two quarters of an hour, the stopper at the bottom of the barrel opened automatically, the water was squeezed out, and the barrel flew up again with a clang, and stopped after half a quarter of an hour.

Pan Jun walked to the wooden barrel and waved her hand. A stone from the edge of Hanxing Pond flew over and landed in front of her.

She stepped on it and bent down to grab the clothes, took them out and showed them to Wang Cong, "Look, they are not only clean, but also half dry. You can wear them after hanging them up in the sun."

Wang Cong shook open his clothes and through a huge hole in the back, he saw Pan Yun bending down to reach for other clothes.

Tao Yanbai opened his mouth wide, stretched out his hand to measure the hole, and murmured, "This is Master Uncle's clothes..."

Pan Yun quickly turned his head back from the barrel, but because his hand was still reaching for clothes, he fell headfirst into the barrel.

Miaozhen and Miaohe quickly pulled the person out, and then looked at the clothes in Wang Cong's hand together.

Both of them were a little stiff and slowly turned their heads to look at the other clothes in the barrel.

Pan Yun shouted, "This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible. I have already improved it, and the force is much lighter. I never damaged the clothes when I washed them in the academy before. How come it damaged them again this time?"

"Maybe it's because my father has worn this piece of clothing for too long?" Wang Cong touched the clothes carefully and said, "Look, there are still patches on it. It looks like the clothes were made five years ago."

Pan Jun's eyes were filled with tears. "Big Brother has had such a hard life. We have new clothes every year, but Big Brother is still wearing clothes from five years ago."

Wang Cong turned around and asked Tao Yanbai, "Where did my father go yesterday?"

Tao Yanbai thought for a moment and said, "Master Uncle said that it was cold this year and someone secretly spent the night in the mountain temple, so he went to the mountain to chop firewood and collect dry firewood. Yesterday alone, he added more than a thousand kilograms of firewood to the mountain temple."

Miao He: "Master Uncle must have used magic, otherwise how could one person chop a thousand pounds of firewood in one day, mostly dry firewood?"

Wang Cong shook out his clothes and waved his hand, saying, "It's okay. I'll find a piece of cloth to mend it later so that I can wear it again next year. Junior Master, take a look at other clothes."

There's nothing wrong with the other clothes, oh, two of them are a little untied.

One is from Pan Yun and the other is from Miaohe, both were sewn by themselves.

This shows the importance of needlework.

Wang Cong checked every piece and confirmed that it was clean. He happily said to Pan Yun, "Uncle Master, this wooden barrel is great. We can definitely find a way to use pedals or hand-powered force instead of the talisman, and then make the barrel bigger and sell it to cloth shops and laundry bureaus."

"I can also sell it to people who specialize in laundry. I can sell 20 barrels in Yushan County alone. Guangxin Prefecture has seven counties, Jiangxi has seventy-eight counties, and the entire Jiangnan has..."

Seeing Wang Cong getting more and more excited and his eyes getting brighter, Pan Yun quickly interrupted him and said, "I'll teach you!"

Pan Yun shuddered and said, "I can teach you the formation drawn on the wooden barrels. I can also teach you how to make two by hand. Then, you can do it yourself if you want to make twenty barrels in a county."

Just a bucket was torture for her, and she didn't want to be a bucket forever.

I originally made this laundry bucket to make money, but later I did it because I didn't want to admit defeat.

In the end, she was about to give up on promoting it. After all, the cost of the washing tub plus the talisman was really high, but if it was pedal-powered or hand-propelled...

Pan Yun touched his chin and said, "I think I know what to do."

"It's more than just a washing tub," Wang Cong said seriously, "Uncle Master, expand on this idea a little bit. Can we turn it into an automatic mixing tub? I just saw that the talisman only provides power, and the formation in the tub itself will stir the clothes. If we modify the formation, can we turn it into a mixing tub? In addition to stirring things, it can also be used to take off things..."

"Isn't the essence of washing clothes to separate and remove the dirt?" Wang Cong said: "So remove the rice, peanuts, wheat, rapeseed..."

Pan Yun and the other three opened their mouths wide and looked at Wang Cong with admiration and disbelief.

　Stayed up late again, ahhh, I will continue to adjust my schedule tomorrow
