Chapter 392: Immortal Affairs Department
Chapter 392: Immortal Affairs Department
After a while, three men with tokens with "Crouching Kirin" patterns on their waists came quickly.
"Guan Ke, the special envoy of the Immortal Affairs Department, greets the Empress."
He turned to look at Meng Baisheng, "Greetings, Lord Meng."
The so-called Immortal Affairs Department is a department established by the imperial court specifically for communicating with the major immortal cultivation sects.
However, generally only the local important factions can see it, as for some small mountain gates, it is basically not seen.
"I wonder what the purpose of the special envoy's visit is?"
The leading man, who was wearing a dark purple robe and had a white face and no beard, took a deep breath and said:
"Now Yongzhou and Shuozhou are in chaos, under natural disasters and man-made disasters, the court has tried its best to repair the northern border defense formation, but it will take time. As long as the formation is not complete, the spiritual energy disorder will not be eliminated, and the Feng Shui is rising... Therefore, the court has specially sent us to send out invitations to recruit talents and rare treasures from all over the world to fix the Feng Shui and eliminate disasters."
Under the jacaranda tree, the man bowed and said, "I have heard that your Majesty is famous for her treasures, so I have come here specially to borrow some treasures from you."
As he spoke, he signaled with his eyes behind him, and the two people following him immediately understood. With a flash of light in their hands, two large boxes appeared on the ground.
Once opened, it is eye-catching.
"When the formation is fully repaired, the situation of the two states will be much better. By then, the treasure will be returned. These are my rewards. I hope that Your Majesty will help me."
Hearing this, Chongfan was filled with emotion.
Generally speaking, the court would do what it could on its own, and the Xianwu Division would not easily take action.
Since they have been dispatched, it means that this matter is really serious and even the imperial court is short of manpower.
Could it be that the enemy's men were all busy building the large formation and confronting the rebellious northern barbarian tribes?
"This matter concerns the lives of many people. Since I already know about it, how can I not save them?"
Hearing this, the three envoys immediately raised their heads with joy on their faces.
"I wonder when this formation can be completed?"
"Two months! No more than three months!"
Chongfan nodded and called softly, "Where are Bai Jing, Kong Qin and Kong Se?"
After the words fell, three beams of light flew over and transformed into human forms. They bowed their heads and said respectfully, "Your Majesty."
After a brief explanation, a light flashed in Chongfan's hand, and a black and white token suddenly appeared in his palm.
Then he handed it to Bai Jing and told her the usage formula.
"One of you three demons is good at medicine, and has a sheep-fat jade medicine pestle on his body; the other two have a treasure fan that can sort out the chaos of feng shui and spiritual energy. You also have this order for weather, so follow Envoy Guan down the mountain."
"Yes."
Seeing this scene, special envoy Guan Ke was even happier.
Originally I just came to borrow a treasure, but now I have borrowed people as well, and I have exceeded my mission goal!
-
On the flying boat heading to the northern border, the three demons used the virtual world function of their disciple tokens to give detailed instructions to their subordinates.
It would only take three months at most for the formation to be repaired, and then they could go back.
So, it’s no big deal if you just leave for a while.
Just treat it as an experience.
The three of them turned to look at Guan Ke and carefully inquired about the details of the two states.
But Guan Ke had a serious face and sighed from time to time.
"Alas, we did send out extraordinary people and treasures to suppress it, but after a while, the heavy rains began to fall again within a few days, and the water levels in the rivers began to rise again."
He spread his hands.
"The grass on the grasslands was soaked and rotten, leaving the cattle and sheep with nothing to eat. Add to that the heavy rains and the extreme cold, and they fell down in droves! Plus, the accumulation of corpses bred plague, and the people of the two states suffered! Shuozhou was a little better, but Yongzhou still had a disordered spiritual energy, and the Feng Shui was at its highest."
"In addition, there were northern barbarians causing chaos at the border at that time. They were not afraid of the severe cold and came in from time to time to steal and plunder, which made the situation even worse. Fortunately, the Anbei Army had already been dispatched, and the chaos at the border was much better."
"Now, with the monks suppressing the disaster and the imperial court providing disaster relief, the people can still get by. But the manpower is inevitably dispersed."
As Guan Ke spoke, he looked at the three disciples from Yudu Mountain whom he had invited inconspicuously.
Although as a member of the Immortal Affairs Department, he had long known that there were both humans and demons in Yudu Mountain.
But today, when we saw the three transformed monsters, we could send them out as soon as we said we would.
It turns out that the empress really treats everyone equally as the rumors say!
Among the three monsters, there was a woman wearing plain white clothes, with a white jade hairpin in her hair, and she had a quiet temperament.
The other two were dressed in gorgeous green and blue brocade clothes, with countless gorgeous peacock feather patterns on the hems and sleeves. The man was gentle and elegant, and the woman was gentle and generous.
The three have no evil intentions at all, but instead have a pure and spiritual aura.
If we didn't know in advance that the three were monsters, anyone who saw them would have thought they were humans.
Guan Ke couldn't help but nodded repeatedly in secret.
-
A few days passed in a flash.
Shortly after entering Yongzhou, a puff of steam hit them in the face. The three demons who were meditating on the flying boat could not help but stand up at the same time.
Most of the states we passed through had clear skies, but when we arrived in this area, we saw thick dark clouds that stretched as far as the eye could see. At first, there was a light drizzle in the sky, but it didn't take long before it started to rain heavily.
The three of them felt it carefully and found that the spiritual energy in a certain direction in the distance was extremely chaotic, which should be the source of the spiritual energy disorder.
But that area was shrouded by a mysterious force, making it impossible to see or explore anything.
Various spiritual energy molecules were jumping and making noises randomly like naughty children, with no pattern at all.
The same is true for a large area around it.
In this situation, not to mention cultivation, even the cultivator's spiritual awareness and the techniques he uses will be affected, and his strength will be greatly reduced.
"Really? It rains so hard right after we arrived."
A young envoy muttered. Fortunately, the flying boat has a protective shield, so it won't get wet by the rain.
"Why don't you see anyone else?"
Bai Jing couldn't help but wonder.
"Oh, due to the influence of the disordered spiritual energy, everyone was arranged to different locations and received by the local inns so that the floods in various places could be eliminated in time when it rained."
To put it bluntly, different people are responsible for different territories.
As he spoke, he pointed to the land not far ahead and said, "You three will be received by the inn of Mengze Mansion."
The three demons nodded.
In other words, this is the area of responsibility assigned to them in advance.
Just at this moment, more than a dozen beams of light flew into the sky from Mengze Mansion, each standing in a different position, with bursts of light flashing on their bodies.
I don’t know what method was used, but the heavy rain gradually became lighter, leaving only a light drizzle.
"Those people are..."
Kong Qin couldn't help but say.
"Most of them are local monks from Mengze Prefecture, and some are from the Demon Suppression Division. But..."
After a while, the wind and rain gradually became stronger.
Guan Ke pointed to the sky helplessly and said, "As you three can see, I am a good hand at suppressing demons and catching evil spirits, but this matter of celestial phenomena... uh..."
I can only say that I can barely cope with it.
