Chapter 61: The Main Sluice
It is not difficult to clean a sedimentation tank, but there is much more than a sedimentation tank in a huge water hall workshop.
Zhang Yuelu directly burned a talisman.
Not long after, the half-length phantom of Cihang Zhenren appeared in front of Zhang Yuelu.
"Master, I'm afraid I'm really unfortunate enough to be right." Zhang Yuelu got straight to the point, "Not only did we encounter the demons and living corpses of the Knowing Destiny Sect, but we also found a large number of strange fish in the sedimentation tank of the water hall, which should be their so-called 'gift'. The only good news is that there should be no surprises. ”
After all, Cihang Zhenren is a person who has been through storms for a long time, so he was not panicked, and after a little silence, he asked, "How is the situation in Jiangnan Province?" ”
Zhang Yuelu said: "It can't be said to be a mess, but it's not much better." After all, Jiangnan Province is responsible for the entire Jiangnan, the key is maritime trade, so many prefectures and counties, ports, warehouses, it is impossible for all of them to be stationed in Jinling Mansion, and after changes, to be honest, today's Jinling Mansion is really a foreign power. ”
Cihang Zhenren was once in charge of Jiangnan Province, so of course he knew about it.
The combat power between the major avenues is also strong and weak, such as Kunlun Daofu, known as the duty of guarding Yujing, so the combat power is the highest above the major avenue mansions, as well as the Western Regions Daofu, which is located on the border, and there are often wars, and the same combat power is strong. These two are like forbidden armies and border armies, which are stronger than ordinary local garrisons.
But Jiangnan Province is not among this, if you talk about strength, status, and importance, they are among the best in the Daomen, but a large part of this strength is economic strength, only in terms of combat strength, Jiangnan Province is not stronger than other provinces, and even a little weak.
The reason is not complicated, since ancient times, the world of flowers is the most consumed, Taoist priests are not black-clothed people after all, it is impossible to be bound by military law, in the prosperous Jiangnan, it is inevitable to enjoy it, so Jiangnan Province is second only to Yujing The hardest hit area of the flower garden Taoist. In addition, Jiangnan Provincial Government is located in the core hinterland, and it has been peaceful for a long time, and there are black-clothed garrisons and Jiangnan sailors, so there is no need to place too many spiritual officials here.
The real people in charge of Jiangnan Province and the deputy masters of the province are concerned about maritime trade, and few people care about the armament, and it can even be said that the armament is lax. That's it, the real person in charge of Jiangnan Province and several deputy hall masters are not in Jinling Mansion, if there is a major change, it is quite unrealistic to expect Jiangnan Province to calm down the situation alone. Even if the Gangnam Provincial Government can calm down the situation, I am afraid that it will already cause very serious consequences. Whether it is human life or death, or property damage, it is immeasurable.
Cihang Zhenren said slowly: "I will send a message to Bai Yingqiong, you two senior sisters will discuss it and try your best to stabilize the situation in Jinling Mansion." On our side, we will convene a meeting as soon as possible to reach a resolution. ”
Zhang Yuelu asked directly: "How long will it take?" ”
Cihang Zhenren shook his head slightly and said, "It's hard to say, before that, I'll go to see Pei Zhenren first and hear what his opinion is." ”
Zhang Yuelu said: "That's the only way." ”
Cihang Zhenren broke off the contact between the son and the mother.
Zhang Yuelu took out another talisman, but this time she contacted Mu Yan, asking Mu Yan to convey her order now, and mobilize all available manpower to go to the Water Hall workshop.
According to reason, it should be the most reasonable to mobilize the manpower of Jiangnan Province to deal with the water hall workshop, first of all, it is justified, and secondly, no matter how the Jiangnan Provincial Government's armament is slack, it is not difficult to deal with a water hall workshop. It's just that Zhang Yuelu is not the deputy head of the Jiangnan Provincial Mansion, so he can't overstep his responsibilities and change his hand again, which will inevitably cause some delays, and the internal situation of the Jiangnan Provincial Mansion is unclear, and it is difficult to distinguish between the enemy and the enemy, so it is better to directly mobilize his own manpower to be more handy.
As for the Jiangnan Provincial Government, it is better to wait for Cihang Zhenren to communicate with Bai Yingqiong before making plans.
After Zhang Yuelu finished the communication with Mu Yan, Qi Xuan said before he spoke: "Although it hasn't been a long time, there have been many strange fish entering the waterway, but I don't understand, how do these strange fish spread curses?" No one will ever eat these strange fish. ”
Zhang Yuelu explained: "These strange fish are actually the source of pollution, they don't have to do anything, they just disperse along the current, and wherever they pass, the water is already polluted, which is the same as putting the carcasses of sick and dead animals in the water source." ”
Qi Xuansu said: "Since this is the case, then most of the wells in the city can't be saved, what should we do next?" ”
Zhang Yuelu pinched her eyebrows: "There should be a general sluice gate in this workshop, close the main sluice gate first, and then slowly clean up the 'gift' here, and at the same time send a message to the local Qingluan Guard and the Soldiers and Horses Command Division to block the well, the key is to determine the location of that group of demons as soon as possible, eliminate or control them, and not let them continue to act recklessly in the city." ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Yuelu took out a stack of talismans from her sleeve, but she suddenly remembered that she had not been in Jinling Mansion for a long time, and there was no contact information of Qingluanwei and the Soldiers and Horses Command Division at all, and the same was true for the men in black, and the supreme commander of the men in black was not in the city, and the Daomen could not move the garrison of the men in black.
"The house leak happened to rain overnight." Zhang Yuelu clenched her fists, "If you want to mobilize the Qingluan Guard and the Soldiers and Horses Command Division, you still have to come forward from the Jiangnan Provincial Government to discuss with the government." ”
Say something, a child and mother charm lit up. Zhang Yuelu took it out, and it was marked with Bai Yingqiong's name.
"It seems that Cihang Zhenren's movements are very fast. You communicate with Bai Zhenren first, and I'll close the main sluice. Qi Xuansu immediately made a decision, Cihang Zhenren and Bai Yingqiong communicated, in fact, it was a one-sided explanation or two sentences from Cihang Zhenren, and the time required was naturally very short, but it would take a lot of time for Zhang Yuelu and Bai Yingqiong to implement specific things.
Zhang Yuelu only hesitated slightly, then nodded and said, "Okay, be careful yourself." ”
The two parted ways, because the terrain here is quite complicated, so there are special signs to guide the way, and Qi Xuansu doesn't need a map, just follow the signs.
The many sedimentation tanks are connected by short and long iron bridges, and the rest of the sedimentation tanks are also crowded with strange fish like the first one.
At most, it's a few hours, and God knows how these things grew so fast, comparable to the flesh and blood of a martial artist.
Qi Xuansu no longer tried to clean up these strange fish, but just walked in the direction of the main sluice.
The sedimentation tank is followed by the filtration tank. Qi Xuansu found that the situation on the side of the filter pool was not optimistic, those strange fish had sharp teeth and sharp mouths, and they had torn the filter iron net, except for some of them continued to entrench in the filter pool, the rest had gone to the next process, that is, the final disinfection pool.
Qi Xuansu didn't think that the disinfection tank could solve these strange fish, and most of the two parts of the reservoir had already fallen, and closing the main sluice gate was indeed the only feasible way.
Along the way, Qi Xuansu also found several similar large rooms, after entering, there were also no living people, all the switches were pushed up, making the waterway unimpeded, and there were still some living corpses wandering, but there were no such huge living corpses, and there were no members of the Knowing Destiny Sect with immortal divine power, which were easily solved by Qi Xuansu.
However, Qi Xuansu can also be regarded as having seen the methods of the Knowing Destiny Sect.
In just a few hours, a workshop with hundreds of people has been turned into a dead domain full of living corpses.
This inevitably reminded Qi Xuansu of the workshop in Cuowenbu, which was also a demon of the Zhiming Sect secretly spreading curses, and finally made the living people in it turn into living corpses, and the living corpses can continue to infect other living people, and finally turn into ghosts, and the army of living corpses formed a tide of corpses, spreading to all sides, sweeping in all directions, it was really like attacking the city and plundering the land.
In this case, in order to avoid the further expansion of the corpse tide, Daomen had to choose to use the "Phoenix Eye Jiasan" to destroy the entire workshop along with the living corpses.
Years later, all that remains is ruins, but some of the living corpses still roam. It's also strange that these living corpses seem to be killed endlessly, every year, every year, just like weeds in the field, wildfires can't be burned, and the spring breeze blows and grows, which can be said to be a legacy to this day.
If such a thing happens in Jinling Mansion, then the world will be shaken.
Finally, Qi Xuansu came to the location of the main sluice.
Qi Xuansu looked at the huge gate above the huge cistern, which was comparable to the city gate, and the switch that had been deliberately destroyed, and was silent for a while.
Even if there was a winch and an iron chain connecting the gate, Qi Xuansu didn't think that he could easily put down the gate, not to mention the pitch-black iron chain with the thickness of the bucket, even the winch itself was ten times the size of an ordinary grinding disc.
If you want to turn such a big winch, even if it is a martial artist in the stage of returning to the truth, it is still beyond its strength.
It's just that there is no other way at this time, Qi Xuansu took a deep breath, rolled up his sleeves, and walked towards the winch.
