Chapter 7: Undercurrents
Chang'an, the ancient capital of China, from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, a total of thirteen dynasties established their capitals here, but with the war, this ancient city was also destroyed, and the current city is called Xijing. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The vicinity of Xijing, thousands of years ago, was naturally quite fertile, but as people lived here for a long time, the fertility of the land gradually lost, so far this neighborhood is not as good as before, known as the treasure land of Guanzhong.
But with the rise of the city in recent years, the city is slowly exuding its charm as an ancient capital.
And in a special area on the outskirts of Xijing, there are some special people who live.
This area is not marked on the map, and there are troops stationed on the periphery to protect it, so naturally this place is called a military fortress by the ordinary people, but in fact, there is a group of people who are very familiar with this place, and the official scientific name here is called the Heavenly Master Association.
Yes, the headquarters of the Celestial Master Association, which has a great reputation, is here.
Compared with other branches, the headquarters is more prosperous, and there are more uses of spiritual power and technology.
At this time, in an office building with a very strong sense of futuristic technology, some people dressed in Taoist style are busy.
This is the core area of the Celestial Master Association, and the entire building has a total of twenty-two floors, with four basement floors.
The twenty-two floors on the upper floor belong to the Intelligence Department, the Criminal Investigation Department, the Management Department, the Logistics Department, the Research Center, the Defense War Room, the military, etc., and it can be said that any room in this building is extremely important.
But the most important thing is the four underground floors.
There was an elevator upstairs but not downstairs, and a group of people were gathering in the conference room at the end of the building.
Sitting at the top was a man, this man looked to be in his thirties, with a somewhat sparse beard, a slightly thin face, a trace of tiredness, with a pair of brown glasses, he just sat there with his chin propped up, looking at everyone in front of him coldly, this person is none other than the strongest existence in the Heavenly Master Association in name at present, and it is also the strongest existence in the world, the seventy-third generation president of the Heavenly Master Association, Qin Yuxuan.
And at this time, the person sitting opposite him was not an ordinary person, sitting on the top of his left was a handsome guy with a smile on his face, with short white hair, who looked like a harmless person and animal, this person was called Bai Ming, the chief of staff of the Heavenly Master Association.
Sitting first on the right side was a serious middle-aged man, without any expression on his face, just looking at everyone very calmly, this is the Minister of Defense of the Heavenly Master Association, Yingjue!
Further down the second place on the left, he was the only person here who did not wear the Taoist style, but he was wearing a Taoist robe, holding a few copper coins and a black shell in his hand and sitting there all the time, this person is called Mingyu.
The second and third on the right hand side look a little similar, but there is a great difference in body, the body of the second place, it is very thin, only about one meter seven tall, the spirit looks good, but the body is very thin, wearing in the Dao Feng, has been swaying, and the one next to him, the height is almost two meters, the Dao Feng is about to burst open by his muscles, these two are brothers, the thin one is called Yan Wei is elder brother, the strong one is called Yan Xiong is younger brother, these two are in charge of scientific research institutions, The equipment of the Heavenly Master mentioned above was basically created by Yan Wei.
And opposite Yan Xiong, there was a woman dressed with Miao Jiang characteristics, this woman looked very young, as if she was only in her teens, of course, judging her age with a woman's face, it would be a loss.
At this time, she looked at the people around her playfully, but she was playing with a small black snake in her hand.
This person's name is Yu An, he is from Miao Jiang, and his strongest method is witchcraft.
Sitting at the head of Yu An was a man with a serious face, his name was Liu Changyuan, and he was a representative of the Heavenly Master Association and the military.
Opposite Qi Changyuan, there was a man who had been smiling, but compared to Bai Ming's smile, his smile was a little obscene, and his eyes kept turning around Yu An's body, but let him provoke this woman, he didn't dare.
This person is called Pu Xinyu, and he is mainly in charge of the intelligence department.
In addition to Qin Yuxuan, the other eight people present here, also known as the Upper Eight Cave Heavenly Masters, were the top existences of the Heavenly Master Association.
As soon as they were all seated, the outside door was opened, and two men in military uniforms entered.
"Chairman Qin, you can start, we are just making records on behalf of the military." Looking at the people in front of him, the eyes were not too friendly, and the man in military uniform who knew the ability of these people didn't say much, he sat directly in the distance and the person behind him also turned on the recorder and computer, such a meeting must be recorded, at least let the people above know.
"Okay, the people from the military have already come, Xinyu, let's talk about it......" Seeing that the people over there were ready, Qin Yuxuan also sat up straight, looked at Pu Xinyu very calmly and said seriously.
"Our news, the recent monsters have some movements, are quietly converging towards Shu, according to my estimates, originally Shu had about 2,000 monsters, in just half a month, it has increased to 5,000, and the number is still improving, not only small demons, some of the big demons we have been monitoring have also moved......" Hearing the president's words, Pu Xinyu also cleared his throat, looked at the people in front of him with a smile, and said to everyone.
"Five thousand...... What are these guys going to do? Hearing Pu Xinyu's words, Yingjue's brows furrowed and said seriously.
"They gathered because of a rumor that an artifact was about to be unearthed, and the place where it was unearthed was in Shudi." Hearing Yingjue's words, Pu Xinyu also continued to speak at this time, and when he heard this, everyone present glanced at each other.
"What artifact?" At this time, Yan Wei looked at everyone with interest, and asked them with his chin propped up.
"Donghuang Bell!" As soon as Yan Wei's words fell, Bai Ming over there had already said with a smile......
At the same time that the headquarters of the Heavenly Teachers Association was researching some artifact, Jiang Xian and Miao Xirong also came in the direction of the city in a car.
"You, how long has it been a teacher?" Driving the car, looking at Jiang Xian beside him, Miao Xirong thought for a while and decided to break this embarrassment.
"How long has it been? I've done the math, it's been more than a hundred years, it seems that I can't remember the specifics. Hearing Miao Xirong's words, Jiang Xian rolled his eyes, well, he usually rolls his eyes, but what he said is true.
"More than a hundred years? Hehe, you're kidding, I think you and I seem to be about the same age. Hearing Jiang Xian's words, Miao Xirong glanced at him with disdain, he really dared to say anything, more than a hundred years? Why don't you say more than a thousand years?
"Believe it or not!" Hearing Miao Xirong's words of disbelief in him, Jiang Xian also shrugged his shoulders and said that it didn't matter.
Indeed, he really doesn't care much about age or something.
"By the way, I see that you are so good at dealing with leeches and fox demons, are you very strong? Have you killed a lot of youkai? Looking at Jiang Xian, Miao Xirong continued to ask him.
"Oh, it's okay, I've killed a lot of monsters, I haven't counted it carefully, but if there are not a thousand, there are eight hundred." After thinking about it for a while, it is true that Jiang Xian's own hands are stained with the blood of demon beasts, for more than a hundred years, it is not too much to kill a thousand demon beasts, and he has not killed one for a month, but Miao Xirong naturally does not believe it.
However, it seemed to her that the water was ten times smaller, and perhaps, he would know about the monster.
"I have something I want to trouble you, do you know a kind of monster that looks like a snake, very long, very big, but has wings on its back and can fly." Looking at Jiang Xian, Miao Xirong asked seriously.
"A snake with wings that can fly? Yes, look at how many pairs of wings you grow, if you grow two pairs, it will be a singing snake, and if you grow a pair, it will be a teng snake, all of them are at the level of a big demon, the weakest Dao for about 3,000 years, and the strongest Dao for about 8,000 years. Hearing Miao Xirong's words, Jiang Xian thought for a while and then spoke.
"Teng Snake?" Hearing Jiang Xian's words, Miao Xirong's hand holding the steering wheel tightened for no reason.
"Although I don't know why you want to go to Teng Snake, but for the sake of you pulling me back, let me tell you, with your current cultivation, there is only one way to go to find trouble with Teng Snake, and there is only one way to die, and your senior brother and brother can't do it, if you want to find trouble with Teng Snake, at least a sixth-level Heavenly Master, as far as I know, the Heavenly Master of the Imperial Capital stronghold is only at the level of Level 5, give up, okay, I'm here!" Looking at her appearance, needless to say, she also knows that she should have a grudge against Teng Snake, but this has a relationship with Jiang Xian, the reason why she said a few more words is because Jiang Xian is in a good mood now, these four foxes can be exchanged for 60 million, plus it is considered to have completed a task for the association, and there is a reward of 3 million, and the cute little money is waving at him.
Without waiting for the car to stop, Jiang Xian had already pushed open the car door and jumped down, and quickly walked into the Xingyue Bar.
And looking at the back of Jiang Xian leaving, Miao Xirong couldn't help but lie on the steering wheel, and a picture kept playing back in her mind, a big snake that could fly, a boy who looked a little like her, and the picture of the big snake swallowing the boy......
"Xirong, you have to live well! And my share! ”
"Sixth-level Heavenly Master, huh? He seems to be a sixth-level Heavenly Master! The memory was interrupted, Miao Xirong suddenly raised her head, thinking about the trigram tied around Jiang Xian's waist, and what Senior Brother Zhao Le said, thinking of this, she immediately got out of the car and rushed into the bar.
