Chapter 176: Southern Branch
The Southern Branch of the Instrumentalist Federation is located in the center of Suzaku City, in this place where every inch of land is valuable, the Southern Branch covers a large area, and the internal buildings are not high, and they are scattered, forming a building complex, which makes Hao Yun feel more like an ancient palace garden, but the building is not as exquisite as the palace.
Hao Yun had already greeted him before he came, after all, he represented the Supervision Brigade, and it was the Instrumentainologists Federation who raised objections this time. For Hao Yun's arrival, the Southern Branch showed great enthusiasm.
Li Feng, the chief vice president of the Southern Branch, led a group of instrumentainers to greet him in person, which made Hao Yun a little flattered. This is not the same concept as the Dong family brothers' treats, after all, nominally, Hao Yun still belongs to the personnel of the inspection agency, and as the person in charge of the inspection agency Vermilion Bird City, it is reasonable to invite people from above. But it would be a bit too much for the Southern Branch to hold such a welcome ceremony, after all, Hao Yun has nothing to do with the Instrumentainist Federation, and Hao Yun is also an ordinary member of the Supervision Brigade, which is not reasonable and reasonable.
Hao Yun hurriedly rushed up, muttered a few words in Vice President Li's ear, Vice President Li immediately understood, and hurriedly beckoned the appraisers to go back to work, and then Hao Yun and Vice President Li hugged twice and walked into the Southern Branch hand in hand.
Along the way, Hao Yun expressed his opinion on such a luxurious building complex as the Southern Branch, the wealthy Instrumentaturists Association is different, others just build a high-rise building, and you have enclosed a piece of land in the city center.
Vice President Li hurriedly shouted injustice, not that they didn't want to build a building, the reason was that the instrumentaturist was prone to problems in the process of building spiritual weapons, and if they were all in the same building, it was likely to affect the pond fish, so they could only take one room for the instrumentalist, and there should be a safe distance between the rooms. And there is also a story about this piece of land, so to speak, Suzaku City gradually developed because of the Southern Branch of the Instrumentalist Federation. Originally, Vermilion Bird City was just an inconspicuous small town in the south, but later because of the good fire in this place, it was especially suitable for the master to build spiritual weapons, so the Federation of Instrumentalists set up the southern branch in Vermilion Bird City, because of the existence of the southern branch, many commercial houses have also been set up in Vermilion Bird City, and Vermilion Bird City has become the most well-known commercial city in the southwest of the Lingdu Continent.
Hao Yun followed Li Feng to his refining room, which was also his office, Li Feng deliberately pointed to the flame under the forging table in the room, and solemnly introduced: "This fire is very unusual, different from other earth fires, the ground fire here has a high temperature and strong controllability, especially suitable for our craftsmen, of course, it is also very good for alchemy." ”
Hao Yun felt a little interesting, and he couldn't imagine that the huge Vermilion Bird City would grow rapidly because of this earth fire. The fact that the Federation of Instrumentalists was able to choose Vermilion Bird City as the main city of the Southern Branch among so many southern cities really shows that Vermilion Bird City has characteristics that other cities cannot achieve.
"Why is this fire so good? Have you done any research?" Hao Yun asked casually.
"Someone once thought about it, but the temperature of the flame was too high, and it was difficult to get deep into it, and in the end, it didn't work. However, some people say that maybe there is a Vermilion Bird under the ground. "Li Feng didn't know, after all, it was more difficult for cultivators to investigate the earth fire. Who makes the current spirit realm, there are almost no fire cultivators.
When Hao Yun saw this earth fire, he understood why the Instrumentalists Federation attached so much importance to the Southern Branch, and if there was a problem with such an important branch, the knowledge in it would be great.
Hao Yun asked Li Feng about the structure of the current Southern Branch, and learned that at present, the Southern Branch has a total of two vice presidents, some of whom are dedicated to the elders and enjoy the treatment of vice presidents, but they have no real power, and they usually mainly build spiritual weapons; Hao Yun asked Li Feng where the other vice president was now?
Li Feng looked embarrassed and said that now Vice President Zhao Zihao is in retreat, and in order to break through to the middle stage of the tribulation, he has been in retreat for half a year, and he has not come out, and he doesn't know what the situation is now. Hao Yun showed a regretful expression and had no choice but to give up.
The purpose of Hao Yun's trip was to meet Di Qing's secretary, Miss He, whom Li Feng had already arranged, and second, he wanted to take a look around the Southern Branch, and wanted to know what President Di Qing's reputation was in the Southern Branch.
Hao Yun also asked Li Feng, what do you think of Di Qing? Li Feng's answer is not leaky, President Di is also a good person, he has no arrogance, he is modest and cautious, and he has a good relationship with all the instrumentalists of the Southern Branch, everyone supports President Di, and feels that President Di will definitely not do anything to kill people.
After Hao Yun saw Miss He, he didn't gain anything, to be honest, Hao Yun was still a little disappointed, he originally thought that this Miss He would be a big beauty, but it turned out that Miss He could only be counted as a little beautiful at most, the key is that the age looks older, which is completely inconsistent with Hao Yun's aesthetic concept. This Miss He didn't say a few words, and began to cry, saying that the president was wronged, and someone must have framed the president. But when Hao Yun asked her who would frame the president, she couldn't say at all.
After Hao Yun finished the investigation of the Southern Branch, Vice President Li Feng tried his best to stay, Hao Yun stayed, and Li Feng, on behalf of the Southern Branch, held a small dinner to entertain Hao Yun, and arranged for Hao Yun to stay after the meal. Originally, Hao Yun planned to go back to the hotel, after all, the hotel was also very close to the Southern Branch, but Li Feng said that the room had been arranged, so Hao Yun did not insist and stayed in the Southern Branch.
Hao Yun slept until the second half of the night, and got up from the bed, now is a good opportunity, he wants to explore the secret of the earth fire at night, which is why he wants to stay in the Southern Branch. In order to be able to stay overnight, Hao Yun also put a lot of effort into it; after three rounds of drinking, he deliberately said that he was going back to the hotel soon, saying that his next door was always a little noisy when he went back late, and asked him to go back to the room early. Fortunately, Li Feng also heard his voice and knew what he meant, and immediately said don't go back, our southern branch has a special guest house, which is also prepared for our customers, and I will immediately arrange the best room, and be sure to stay at night. Hao Yun smiled and immediately agreed, Hao Yun also knew that his rhetoric was full of loopholes, but as long as the goal was achieved, it didn't matter if anything else.
Hao Yun escaped into the long river of time, and quickly came to Li Feng's refining room, and found that there was no one in the room, and it seemed that Li Feng would not live here at night. Although it was very late, Hao Yun found that many artifacts were still refining and building spiritual weapons, which was also because it took a long time to build spiritual weapons, and in the process of refining, the artifact masters would generally guard the whole process in case of accidents.
Hao Yun returned to his room, returned to the real world, carefully opened his room and walked out. After Hao Yun walked away, a head poked out of the next room, it turned out to be Vice President Li Feng, Li Feng quietly came to Hao Yun's room, pushed the door in, and took a small vase from the Hundred Treasure Pavilion in the room. Li Feng rubbed his hand twice on the small vase, and a light curtain appeared on the small vase, and the picture of Hao Yun in the room appeared in the light curtain. After Li Feng quickly finished reading it, he put the vase back in its place and quietly retreated from the room.
Li Feng was under Hao Yun's gaze for the whole process, and after Hao Yun pretended to run out, he immediately cast the time spell, ran back, and then used the light and shadow technique to make himself disappear from the room without a trace. Li Feng thought that Hao Yun was gone, but in fact Hao Yun was still in the room.
Hao Yun was very puzzled, Li Feng monitored himself through this small vase, it was really meaningless, what could he find? Hao Yun escaped into the long river of time, and once again came to Li Feng's refining room, and sure enough, on his bookshelf, he also saw a small vase. Hao Yun's heart moved, he used light and shadow magic, withdrew from the long river of time, and began to wait in the room.
Li Feng's door opened, Li Feng walked in, picked up the small vase, rubbed it on the bottle, and a light curtain came out of the bottle mouth, and there was only a picture of Hao Yun and Li Feng talking in the room, and Hao Yun never appeared again.
Li Feng said to himself: "No, Hao Yun should have mastered the Time Technique, it stands to reason that this place can't stop him from entering, why didn't he come here to investigate the secret of the Earth Fire, could it be that he is not interested in this place?
Hao Yun was startled when he heard Li Feng's words on the side, he didn't expect that he had mastered the time exercises, and he would see through it, and Li Feng also guessed that he was interested in earth fire;
Li Feng left after a while, leaving Hao Yun alone, Hao Yun directly put the small vase into his ring, and then came to the forging table, Hao Yun used the fire system spiritual power, wrapped his divine sense, and slowly approached the flames. The temperature of the flame is indeed very high, and even his own fire-based spiritual power seems to be ignited under the flame. Hao Yun was not in a hurry, and immediately began to manipulate his divine sense to go to the depths of the flames, but used his divine sense to slowly approach the flames. Hao Yun suddenly felt a headache, his divine consciousness was directly burned by the flames, Hao Yun hurriedly withdrew his divine sense.
It took Hao Yun a long time to recover, and he was also smacking his tongue, this is indeed too unscientific, from Hao Yun's understanding, divine consciousness is just an existence like brain waves, and it must also be a kind of energy. Normally, this kind of energy should not be afraid of fire, but his divine consciousness was actually destroyed by this earth fire, unless, this earth fire also has a divine sense, can it be said that there is really a vermilion bird under this earth? Hao Yun shook his spirits and prepared to try again.
