Chapter 272: The Communications Department
The location of the Purple Leaf City Sanctuary is not far from the Purple Leaf Academy. [No pop-up novel network]
In the center of the city, diagonally opposite the auction house and the Extreme Challenge Hall, is the highest power center in the entire city, the Purple Leaf City Temple!
Six of the twelve deacons of the temple have been living in Purple Leaf City for a long time. The other six were the Templar Hall Masters in the more than twenty county towns under the jurisdiction of Purple Leaf City.
The head of the auction house in Purple Leaf City, the head of the Extreme Challenge Hall, the head of the Mercenary Hall, and two of the patriarchs of the four major families are temple deacons.
Of course, the members of the temple who have certain rights are not only the twelve deacons, but also some of the temple masters who are not in the temple deaconship position, and they also have some special rights in the temple. When the temple has important decisions to be made, these members have a certain amount of voting and a voice.
Xia Yan followed Liu Yun and Li Yuanchun to the temple together.
This temple is smaller than the auction house and the extreme challenge hall building, but it looks more dignified on the outside. Moreover, in the square in front of the temple, there was a patrol of heavily armed escorts. Ordinary people are not allowed to go near the temple building at all.
These guards all have good strength. Xia Yan noticed that the captain of the patrol team turned out to be a powerhouse in the spirit master realm.
"Dean Liu Yun!"
When the captain of the guard saw Liu Yun, he hurriedly greeted him respectfully.
As the captain of the temple patrol, he naturally knew Liu Yun and the people in the temple.
"Well, it's Qi Yun, I'm going to go into the temple to do something. Liu Yun smiled at the captain of the guard and said.
"Dean, please!" Qi Yun hurriedly bowed down and made a gesture of invitation.
Liu Yun nodded, then turned to Xia Yan and said, "Xia Yan, you go in with me." ”
Xia Yan said, "Yes, Master." ”
Listening to the conversation between Liu Yun and Xia Yan, Qi Yun couldn't help but raise his head to look at Xia Yan, and a hint of discoloration flashed on his face.
"Dean Liu Yun's disciple turned out to be this young man. I heard that this kid is very strong, and it is really good luck to be able to become a disciple of Dean Liu Yun. Qi Yun said with envy in his heart, and at the same time watched Liu Yun and the three of them gradually enter the temple.
"Keep patrolling. Qi Yun straightened up and shouted at more than a dozen guards.
"Yes, Captain!" the dozen or so guards all replied loudly.
After Xia Yan entered the temple, his eyes couldn't help but look around. The walls of this temple were all carved with some patterns.
"Xia Yan, this is the outer hall. The Purple Leaf City Sanctuary is divided into an outer hall and an inner hall, and in the outer hall, any member can enter. As for the inner sanctum, ordinary members have no right to enter. Liu Yun glanced at Xia Yan, "In addition to the outer hall and the inner hall, the temple has some other institutions. For example, the Communications Department, the Eagle Communications is in charge of them. ”
Hearing Liu Yun say this, Xia Yan also had some understanding of the temple.
"Xia Yan, let's go to the Communications Department now. Liu Yun said, and walked to the inside of the outer hall.
In the middle of the inner side of this outer hall, there is a relatively wide passage. On either side of this wide passage, there are six smaller passages.
And the direction that Liu Yun walked was a passage on the right.
"This passage should be the one that leads to the Communications Department. Xia Yan pondered in his heart, and followed Liu Yun closely.
Soon, the three of them entered another circular room.
"Wow~"
Several low cries came into Xia Yan's ears.
The sound was clearly from a beast, and the sound alone exuded a penetrating power.
Xia Yan hurriedly looked around, and on the four walls of the circular room, there were some small square holes, which seemed to lead to the outside.
"This voice is made by the eagle. Liu Yun said to Xia Yan.
Xia Yan also guessed, and after listening to Liu Yun's words, he nodded.
"Dean Liu Yun. ”
At this moment, from behind a door, an old man in Tsing Yi walked out. The old man's beard was gray, but his eyes were very attentive, and he just swept over Xia Yan's body slightly, and Xia Yan felt his body tremble involuntarily.
If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that there would not be such an obvious feeling, Xia Yan's sensitivity of the five senses is much higher than that of ordinary people, so the reaction is much stronger than that of ordinary people.
"Mr. Lin!" Liu Yun smiled and turned around naturally, "Xia Yan, this is Mr. Lin from the Communication Department of Purple Leaf City, and the entire Communication Department was transferred by Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin, the eyes and ears of our temple. ”
Liu Yun introduced Xia Yan with a smile.
Xia Yan naturally knew what Master Liu Yun meant, and although he was shocked in his heart, he still hurriedly saluted and said, "I've seen Mr. Lin." ”
"Well, yes, very nice young man. Mr. Lin's eyes flashed, and he narrowed slightly, nodded and said at the same time.
"Dean Liu Yun, your disciple will definitely have a great future in the future. Mr. Lin said to Liu Yun with a smile.
Liu Yun also smiled, "Mr. Lin has won the award, but Xia Yan is indeed willing to work hard to cultivate. I, as a master, am also very pleased. ”
Xia Yan listened to the conversation between the two, and the degree of surprise in his heart increased a lot.
Although he was not very clear about Master Liu Yun's status in the temple, Xia Yan had also heard that Liu Yun's status in the temple was second only to the temple master. Moreover, Liu Yun had a very close relationship with the temple master.
But now that Master Liu Yun is so polite to this Mr. Lin. And Mr. Lin didn't seem to be as respectful as he imagined when he spoke to Liu Yun.
Listening to the conversation between the two is as if people of equal status are talking together. Moreover, Master Liu Yun's tone, when talking about himself, actually revealed a sense of wanting to attract the attention of this Mr. Lin, intentionally or unintentionally.
"It seems that this temple is not as simple as I imagined. Xia Yan muttered in his heart.
Ever since Li Yuanchun entered the temple, he had kept his mouth shut and didn't even say a word. In such a place, there is no place for him to speak. Although Li Yuanchun's surname is rough, he has been by Liu Yun's side for so long, so he naturally knows that he can't talk at will in some places.
"Mr. Lin, a few days ago, I asked you to use the Flying Eagle to pass a box to the Holy Land, is there any response from that side now?"
After a while, Liu Yun asked with a slight frown.
Mr. Lin shook his head and said, "Dean, from our Purple Leaf City to the Holy Land, even if we rely on the speed of the Flying Eagle, it will take thirty hours. When the Eagle arrives at the Holy Land, the Holy Land Communications Department will inevitably notify your friend to receive the box. In this way, it will take a lot of time. No matter how fast it is, I'm afraid it won't be heard back until noon today. ”
When Xia Yan heard Mr. Lin's words, his heart began to become a little anxious again. By noon, that Zixin would be in danger.
But now, he has no choice but to continue to wait.
"Hehe, then let's wait here. This matter is related to a person's life and death, so it is very urgent. Liu Yun looked at Xia Yan and said.
"Oh?" Mr. Lin was stunned for a moment, and his gaze swept over Xia Yan's face again, "Could it be that it has something to do with Xia Yan?"
This Mr. Lin's mind is really quick. He saw that Liu Yun brought Xia Yan here, and anxiously asked about the Flying Eagle Teleportation, so he guessed that it might be related to Xia Yan. Now Xia Yan's face couldn't help but show anxiety, so he could already determine that it was something related to Xia Yan.
Xia Yan looked at Master Liu Yun, but Liu Yun didn't say anything.
Xia Yan said, "Back to Mr. Lin, it's my business. A friend of mine, who was seriously injured and needed to buy an elixir from the Holy Land. ”
"Oh?" Mr. Lin's face was shocked, and he was much more solemn, "Buying pills from the Holy Land......?
"That's right, it's the Soul Returning Pill. Liu Yun said.
Hearing Liu Yun's personal confirmation, Mr. Lin's face also changed suddenly, "Soul Returning Pill? Good guy, that's a pill of three million gold coins, Xia Yan, you are really willing." ”
In Mr. Lin's eyes, the essence suddenly exploded, but then it was hidden again.
"Then Dean Liu Yun, Xia Yan, you just wait here, once there is news from the Holy Land, I will definitely inform you immediately. I think there's going to be an echo soon. I'm right in there, and you can come to me anytime you have anything. Mr. Lin first pointed to a few tables and chairs in the room, and then pointed behind the door, and said slowly.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin. Liu Yun smiled and hugged his fists.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin. Xia Yan also hurriedly thanked him.
After Mr. Lin turned around and walked back, Liu Yun, Xia Yan, and Li Yuanchun also sat down on the chairs next to them.
"Xia Yan, this Lin Luo is the person in charge of the communication department of Purple Leaf City. The Ministry of Communications, though controlled by the Temple, is also a reader. Because, the Ministry of Communications can speak directly to the Holy Land, and in a way, it has the same status as the Temple. Liu Yun said to Xia Yan.
"Have the same status as the Temple?" Xia Yan was taken aback.
"No wonder, Master was so polite to this forest just now. Xia Yan thought in shock.
"Yes, this communication department is a special existence. Moreover, the communication departments of the main cities on the continent also have the right to directly transmit information to the Holy Emperor. At the extraordinary moment, the Holy Emperor also gave orders directly to the Ministry of Communications. There were even orders that bypassed the temple. Liu Yun narrowed his eyes and said.
Li Yuanchun sat aside with his eyes wide open, listening to Liu Yun speak, his eyes looking at Xia Yan from time to time.
"Master, is this Lin Luo a member of the Golden Dragon Palace?" Xia Yanfang suddenly had an idea, that is, the Golden Dragon Palace, so he asked casually.
Liu Yun smiled slightly, "Lin Luo is a member of the Communication Department, not a member of the Golden Dragon Palace, he is controlled by the Holy Emperor alone. None of the several forces in the Golden Dragon Hall could directly control the Communication Department. ”
In the Golden Dragon Palace, the forces are also very complicated. Although Xia Yan hadn't come into contact with the Golden Dragon Hall yet, he could vaguely feel it just from the mouths of Master Liu Yun and the Purple Leaf City Temple Master.
