Chapter 54: The curtain opens
After sending Sun Heyu away, Qi Xuansu returned to the signing room, and there were three files on his desk, which were Sun Keyping's personal file, the latest medical case of the Great Yu Monarch issued by the Huasheng Hall, and a phased summary of the investigation of the dragon qi leakage.
This means three threads, and these three threads are not completely isolated, but intersect with each other. For example, the illness of the lord of Dayu is inseparable from the leakage of dragon qi.
Qi Xuansu picked up the medical case and read it again.
According to the comparison of the two medical cases, it will be found that the condition of the Lord of Dayu has not improved, but has a tendency to worsen, but the Lord of Dayu no longer has that strange nightmare, and no longer dreams of Wu Luo.
But in fact, there is no way to verify whether it is a dream or not, and it is all the words of the lord of Dayu. Maybe he's been dreaming all along, but now he's deliberately saying he doesn't dream anymore. It may also be that he has never dreamed, but he used to deliberately say that he had nightmares.
There must be something strange in this, but Qi Xuansu can't figure out what his intentions are for the time being, and he can only hope that Chen Jianqiu will make progress.
And then there is Sun Keyping, after Xu Jiaorong's reminder, coupled with Sun Heyu's reaction, Qi Xuansu is almost certain that there is something wrong with this kid. It's not surprising that with his troublesome nature, innocence is the biggest problem.
Qi Xuansu can be regarded as having participated in many big cases, and all big cases have a characteristic, that is, they start small, and they don't go straight to the topic as soon as they come up, they all start from small minions, involve middle-level leaders, and finally go to the big people behind the scenes. This process is both a process of following the vine and cutting off the wings. Now it seems that Sun Keyping is a little minion and a thread.
Of course, Qi Xuansu must first ensure Sun Keyping's safety, and can't let him die, although Sun Heyu shouldn't be so ruthless, but it's hard to guarantee that others won't fight this idea, they can use Sun Keyping's death to stimulate Sun Heyu and Qi Xuansu to fight hard, in order to achieve the purpose of killing people with a knife.
According to reason, Sun Heyu, as a former real person, should be able to see through this little trick at a glance, but after some contact, Qi Xuansu always felt that this old real person was a little out of touch, or it may be that as the limit of life and death is gradually approaching, his mentality has changed a lot and has become extreme, and he may not be as sober as he was when he was young, so he must be guarded against.
[The app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, which is used by old bookworms.]
, is not a Taoist priest who has experienced strong winds and waves, and he can't talk about the city government and cunning. Isolate him, unable to communicate with the outside world, and not knowing what is happening outside, he himself will panic, we will hang him for a few days, put on a posture of not being in a hurry, and he will take the initiative to ask to talk to us."
"Xu Fuli is right." Qi Xuansu expressed his approval and explained a little more, "The key is to do a good job of isolation, and don't let the outside talk come in. Xu Fuli, you are the chief steward of the Water Palace, you know what is credible and what is not, you know in your heart, this is a special period, you have to guard the door of the Water Palace, not a single mosquito can fly in."
Xu Jiaorong said, "Please rest assured."
Qi Xuansu naturally will no longer be personally responsible for this matter as he was when he was in charge, his main energy should be on the upcoming Daofu Conference, which he single-handedly promoted, in order to carry out a comprehensive and in-depth investigation of the leakage of dragon qi, and continue to dig deeper along the line of dragon qi.
There is no doubt that the matter of the leakage of dragon qi must be related to the Daofu, and without the cooperation of the people of the Daofu, it is impossible to hide from the sky and the sea and create two divine descent containers in the Thang Long Mansion.
This matter will definitely not be passed on the meeting of the head of the government, so it is necessary to hold a big discussion of the provincial government.
After Xu Jiaorong left, Qi Xuansu sat on the chair and sorted out the situation between the enemy and us again.
In addition to the head of the mansion, the chief and the second seat, there are also seven deputy palace masters, at least four of whom are from the Wang family's faction. The remaining three deputy mansion masters do not mean that they are on Qi Xuansu's side, it can only be said that it is possible to move closer to Qi Xuansu, or it is for the sake of Lan Da Zhenren's face, now that Lan Da Zhenren is not here, their position is not firm.
In addition, Xu Jiaorong and the two first-grade spirit officials can participate in the discussion, and they are definitely on Qi Xuansu's side. There are also six second-grade spirit officials, and at least four of them are from Qi Xuansu's side. This is not how high Qi Xuansu's prestige is, just because they are all people from Lan Da Zhenren.
However, Wang Jiaohe has been operating in Borneo for many years, and the infiltration of the spirit officials is more serious, the status of the first-grade spirit official is transcendent, and he directly belongs to the spirit official mansion, he can't intervene, but the second grade spirit official is not so easy to say, especially the part of the spirit officials who are closely related to the Taoist government, but the spirit officials stationed in the old port propaganda and comfort department are relatively clean.
The rest is part of the more special three-grade Youyi Taoist, the nine halls are equipped with branches, generally only set up branch halls, according to the recent restructuring of the Daomen, belong to the chief director, but some of the more important branches, there will also be assistants, located above the main hall, equivalent to the ordinary deputy hall master of the main hall, but not the right to participate in the Taoist meeting.
In Borneo, because the sea trade here is prosperous, and it is a frontier land, it also involves dealing with outsiders, so the Shibo Hall, Tiangang Hall, and Ancestral Hall have assistants. Sinking eleven big ships a year, the city hall must not be able to escape the involvement, but Tiangang Hall assists and
The assistant of the ancestral hall is from Qi Xuansu's side. Of course, this is not because of how domineering Qi Xuansu is, and he convinced the two assistants without meeting, but because Qi Xuansu represents Jin Que.
After calculation, it can only be said that Qi Xuan has a chance of winning, but he can't talk about victory, and there are still great variables.
The day after Sun Heyu came to find Qi Xuansu's dignitaries, the upper echelons of the Borneo Provincial Government had already arrived in Qi one after another, and the Taoist Mansion Conference officially began.
The entire Borneo Provincial Government is paying close attention to the results of this Provincial Meeting, and even not only the Provincial Government of Borneo, but also the Nanyang countries and forces are also paying close attention to the results of the Provincial Meeting.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this Daofu meeting is obviously divided into two camps, one camp is headed by Wang Jiaohe, the real person in charge of the mansion, and the other camp is headed by Qi Xuansu, the second deputy mansion master.
According to reason, it should be that the Nanyang local faction represented by Wang Jiaohe is more powerful, but Qi Xuansu represents Jinque and Daomen, which makes many people dare not confront it head-on. There are also many people who have long been dissatisfied with Wang Jiaohe, but they have never dared to attack, and they took this opportunity to simply stand on Qi Xuansu's side. There are also some people who are real people from Landa, and naturally they also support Qi Xuansu.
So the two camps turned out to be evenly matched.
Many people have a vague premonition that the South Seas are about to change.
With the big discussion of the provincial government this time
The celebration organized by Jack soon began, and the central plaza that served as the venue began to be decorated, with various decorations, arrangements, and so on.
But as a natural defect of the undead, no matter how you look at it, this celebration is like a funeral, or the kind of funeral that is biased towards horror.
The silent movements, the mechanical arrangement, the gray tones, all this seems to foreshadow what is to come.
In order to attract the residents, Jack specially issued a notice that every resident who came to participate in the celebration would be rewarded with a Ghost Stone.
This trick has had some effect, a ghost stone is still very attractive to the ordinary residents of the dead city, and you can also see a performance for free, no matter how you look at it, it is a good deal.
Therefore, on the day of the celebration, many residents of the dead city came to participate, and the royal power could only secretly let Rooney's Bone Chewing Gang come forward and restrain the residents of the southern district from trying not to go.
Although he has destroyed Jack's arrangement in the sewers, it is hard to guarantee that Jack will not have other means, and it is still dangerous for these dead city residents to go.
However, this kind of thing, the royal power naturally can't come forward, and can only rely on Rooney and others, but even if Rooney and others use many means, there are still many residents of the southern district who secretly run to participate.
In this regard, the royal power has no good way, but can only wish them not to die or injure too much.
After that, the royal power left some subordinates in the southern district, just in case, and went to the central square in person, and he must go to Jack's celebration in person, so that he can break any conspiracy as soon as possible.
Looking at the central plaza, which was gradually filled, Jack clutched a necklace tightly and muttered, "Hey, it's coming, we'll see you again soon."
It's a very ordinary necklace, but it means something extraordinary to Jack, because it's the first gift Nozomi has given him.
The celebration begins!
The circus as a guest performer began to perform, although it was strange that they were not singing or dancing.
But it's not that the conditions are limited, so I can only make do, but the effect is really good.
At least the residents of the dead city below are still very happy to watch, and I don't know if it is because they are not entertained themselves, or because the royal power killed the "Shadow of Dead Silence", which revived their suppressed emotions, or both.
But the happy times were always short-lived, and soon the circus show was over, and it was the turn of the lord to speak, and the clowns and magicians all came off the stage to wait.
The residents of the Dead City all looked up at their nominal managers, and after decades of seclusion, the residents of the Dead City had forgotten what their city lord was like, and now they were very curious.
Wang Quan also mixed with the residents, looking up at this sister control city lord, to be honest, although he foiled the other party's plan several times, it was the first time that he was officially photographed.
The appearance of the sister control city lord is still very top, Wang Quan once saw the portrait of him during his lifetime, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is personable and handsome.
After his death, he was not transformed into an ordinary undead, but maintained his former appearance, but his skin became extremely pale, and his eyes always revealed a sense of amazement, which made Jack look like a hesitant flower man.
But the royal power knows that inside this good-looking shell, it is a twisted and perverted soul that blooms.
Under the cold eyes of the royal power, Jack carried a cane and a necklace in the other, and slowly walked to the high platform of the celebration.
Standing on a high place, Jack looked at the residents below, and there was a faint wave in his heart, these are his people, frankly Jack is not a cruel person, if it were not for the sister control of this matter, Jack might have become an excellent ruler.
But just like that Uchiha weasel, Jack also has a concern for other people and a bullshit city lord who he hasn't seen in a long time, and actually wants their lives, what a joke.
The residents of the dead city below were suddenly excited, the effect of the killing of the "Shadow of Dead Silence" appeared, and the emotions of the dead city residents began to recover, and Jack's words had already caused public outrage.
Many residents didn't want to listen to Jack's nonsense anymore and got up to leave, and some simply came up and beat him.
In the face of these commotions, Jack was calm, just bowed slightly, and whispered, "I'm sorry."
Then, the hand guard touched the ground lightly, and suddenly a streamer of light began to disperse from the ground in all directions, like an activated switch.
The entire dead city began to move in an instant, and the ground and standard buildings were lit up with brilliant magic aura, illuminating the originally dark city extremely brightly.
In fact, this was not the earliest sacrificial magic circle, on the eve of the outbreak of death, Jack was tempted by a mysterious wizard to resurrect his lover with a huge amount of death power, this arrangement is the entire city's formation is used to absorb death gas, and then transform.
But then Jack's action failed, and he buried himself in the castle as an otaku, painstakingly studying the way to resurrect his sister, and this magic circle was abandoned.
It wasn't until the Council of the Dead City took power that it began to organize people to renovate this circle, and transformed it into a large protective array of the Dead City to protect the Dead City.
The Great Knight Daurson didn't bother with the Dead City, and he had a part to it.
But time has passed, and today, this formation is going to return to its original purpose.
