Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Secret Seal of the Government
After Xiang Chun flew back from the north of Ansan first, he immediately took over the affairs from the stand-in.
At this time, he knew that in just a few days, there was a murder of the chief official of the government department in the Metropolitan Protector's Mansion, including his old acquaintance Guo Shang.
For this, he also blamed himself and sighed.
But if it were to happen all over again, he would still choose to do it.
It is clear that it is more important to preserve the granaries of the northern plains than to take human lives.
Fortunately, the plague god who transferred the divine power as expected before did not appear near Ruiguang, and the Divine Captain Army was not untied, and things were not really out of control.
So he beat his spirits, went to visit Liu Fengquan and others in person, and also went to Yao's old man's mansion, although this old gentleman is old, the influence is still great.
Although the Xuanfu did not really exterminate the plague gods this time, the threat from the north was indeed temporarily lifted, and it could be regarded as a great merit that could be used, and it could barely be offset by the merits.
After Xiang Chun returned to the affairs hall, he was also full of emotion. According to the Tianxia ritual system, the Xuanfu, as an important place for cultivation, should have been high above the Duhu Mansion, sitting and watching the clouds roll below, but now he can only bow down and bow to others.
Although the turbidity tide was receding, he could fly away from the sky again, but how did he feel that the restraints on his body had not weakened much at all.
"Chief, principal. ”
While he was complaining in his heart, an assistant came hurrying from outside the hall.
Xiang Chun is now afraid of hearing any more bad news, but as the main thing, he is still very calm, his face is calm, and he asks, "What's the matter?"
The assistant had a happy look on his face, bowed, and said, "Chief, Zhang Xuanxiu is back." ”
Xiang Chun thought about it, and realized that he was talking about Zhang Yu, "Did Senior Brother Zhang go out before?"
The assistant said: "Principal, before Wang Cheng and Director Guo and others were killed, Zhang Xuanxiu seemed to have found some clues, so he chased down after leaving a few words, and only then did Zhang Xuanxiu come back and dragged back the body of a god, which is said to be the murderer." ”
"Oh?"
Xiang Chun's expression was shocked, and then he was also happy in his heart. If Zhang Yu really killed the murderer and brought it back, then there was still a way to make up for this matter, and he hurriedly asked, "Where is Senior Brother Zhang?"
The assistant said, "People should be in Wenqi Square." ”
When Xiang Chun heard this, he immediately went out of the hall, and before he went out of the gate, he subconsciously wanted to fly away in the air, but then he thought that this was Ruiguang City, so he had to give up, so he could only walk out of the school palace, and then take a carriage and horse to the west of the city.
After going all the way out of the West City Gate, he stopped outside Wenqi Square, he came out of the carriage, looked at it from a distance, and saw the magnificent corpse, with a layer of shining divine blood on it, and couldn't help nodding secretly, this is indeed a corpse of a foreign god.
He glanced at Zhang Yu who was standing there, talking to a young Xuan Xiu. He recalled that that Xuan Xiu should be called Yan Yuming, who stood out from the orphans adopted by Xuanfu, and he can be regarded as a rare talent, but his cultivation time is still short.
To be honest, I really can't blame him for this incident.
Xiang Chun didn't rush forward, but asked, "Is it possible that it is confirmed that it was this strange god who killed Wang Zhan and Guo Yajun?"
The assistant said, "It's confirmed, it's true." ”
Xiang Chun nodded, and then walked towards the square.
Zhang Yuruo felt something, looked back, and saw that it was Xiang Chun who arrived, so he walked to meet him, and then clasped his hands together and said, "Senior Brother Xiang is polite." ”
Xiang Chun raised his hand and gave a salute, his face showed approval, and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, you have done a good job." He sighed with emotion and said, "It's also up to you to kill this god and bring it back, otherwise I will have a headache about this." ”
Zhang Yudao: "No one in the Xuanfu was suitable to deal with this matter at that time, and Yu was present and found clues, so he would not let it go." ”
Xiang Chun nodded again and again, and said: "Senior brother has the courage to do things, and his ability is outstanding, if the younger generation is a person like Senior Brother Zhang, how good it would be." ”
Zhang Yu didn't speak, but Yan Yuming, a young Xuan Xiu standing next to him, thought he was talking about himself, and couldn't help but bow his head in shame and pain.
Xiang Chun pointed to the corpse in the square and said, "Senior brother, do you know where this strange god came from?"
Zhang Yudao: "This god son claims to be the heir of the god of plague, the god of barbarism, Kutai. ”
Xiang Chun was taken aback and said, "The heir of the God of Plague?"
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Yes, I confirmed." ”
Xiang Chun's expression suddenly turned grim, and he said, "Senior Brother Zhang, how did you confirm it? But did you find any clues about the plague god?"
Zhang Yudao: "After I found the clue at that time, I followed the traces left by this strange god all the way to Anshan, and found an altar of the plague god there. After I slew this strange god, I didn't expect that the god of plague happened to transfer his divine power to this point, so the emperor fought with him and killed him by luck. “
With that, he took the finger bone out of his coat pocket and said, "This is from the god of plagues." ”
Xiang Chun's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but lose his temper slightly, and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, you ......" He looked at the phalanx again, that kind of divine power, that's right, it is indeed the god of plague! He kept looking at Zhang Yu, "Senior Brother Zhang, how are you ......?"
Zhang Yudao: "Somehow, the plague god seems to have lost too much divine power this time, and all he pinned on was a dried corpse, so the emperor was lucky enough to defeat it." ”
"I see. ”
This explanation is relatively easy for Xiang Chun to accept.
He could see that this plague god had actually had a fight with Ying Yuan before the transfer, and finally retreated, and his divine power should have lost a lot in that battle, so it was possible to be killed by Zhang Yu after another transfer, and without a suitable body of sustenance.
He thought for a moment and then asked, "What about the other sons of the God of Plague?"
Zhang Yudao: "When I fought with the God of Plague, this generation was not around. "These gods have all been turned to ashes by the Peach Talisman, and nothing has been left, and the Peach Talisman has a unique identity and is not suitable for Daoming.
Xiang Chun didn't pursue it further, the plague god has been removed, and the rest of the gods are useless even if they are alive. The key is that Zhang Yu is also a person from Xuanfu, so this time it can also be said to the outside world that Xuanfu has done its best.
In this way, he has the confidence to continue to ask Du Tang to continue to suppress the Divine Captain Army.
And all of this was brought by Zhang Yu.
He looked at Zhang Yu for a moment, and then said: "Senior Brother Zhang, last time Senior Brother Fan told me that he wanted to ask me for a copy of the secret chapter, I saw that your cultivation time was still short, and I was afraid that you would be too hasty, so I deliberately pressed you, but now it seems that a person with outstanding qualifications like you should not be looked at with the old eyes." ”
After a pause, he said again: "Don't worry, when I return to the mansion, I will teach the secret chapter method." ”
Zhang Yu thought about it for a moment and said, "Senior Brother Xiang, I feel that I have many shortcomings in this battle, so I want to travel and practice for a while. ”
Xiang Chun said with a pleasant expression: "It's okay, Senior Brother Zhang, you have made such a great contribution, and it is a little unkind to arrange what you do again, you can go and do your own thing." ”
After talking to Zhang Yu, Xiang Chun arranged a few people here in the square and returned to the affairs hall, and finally arranged for the disciples to send the secret chapter method to Zhang Yu as soon as possible, and at the same time sent several seals.
Then he began to write letters, and ordered people to send them out one by one, preparing to use this opportunity to reverse the decline of the Xuanfu in one fell swoop.
I don't know how long it took, Xu Ying rushed in and said hurriedly: "Senior brother, have you passed on the secret chapter to Zhang Yu?"
Xiang Chun's pen did not stop, and he did not raise his head and said: "He killed the god of plague." ”
"What?"
Xu Ying was a little stunned and said in disbelief: "Senior brother, I didn't hear clearly, you say it again?"
After Xiang Chun finished writing a line, he looked up and said, "I said he killed the god of plague!"
Xu Ying realized that this was not a joke, he was stunned for a moment, looked left and right, and walked back and forth in the lobby for a few more steps, before finally turning his head and saying in disbelief: "How is this possible? There are so many of us, and we have besieged it for so long......
"Yes, what so many of us didn't do, but it was done by Senior Brother Zhang," Xiang Chun looked at him and said, "But this is the truth!"
Xu Ying gritted his teeth and said: "That's also a fluke! I don't believe it, I don't believe that he can take the plague god with his strength, the plague god must have lost too much divine power when he was transferred, he was lucky and picked up the cheap!"
Xiang Chun nodded and said, "It's really a bit of luck," he threw the pen in his hand, "But our Xuanfu is a little bit of luck!"
Xu Ying was speechless for a moment.
Xiang Chun turned around, walked to the window, looked down and said, "I sometimes wonder if we did something wrong when we only cared about Ji Jiaerlang and pushed Senior Brother Zhang out?"
When Xu Ying heard this, she couldn't help blushing, grabbed a few steps, and said excitedly: "Senior brother, you can't change your mind halfway, this is the only chance for our Xuanfu to turn defeat into victory." ”
Xiang Chun turned his head to look at him and said, "I didn't say that I wanted to change my mind, but I think that it is precisely because we pushed Senior Brother Zhang out that he is what he is now, and some people are born with nothing to be buried." ”
Xu Ying suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiang Chun said in a deep voice: "Do you know now why you are willing to teach him the chapter law? Maybe he can bring us some more surprises? This does not conflict with the matter of Ji Jiaerlang." ”
After Xu Ying left the affairs hall with some depression, he came to the secret room located in the middle of Qishan, and after entering this room, as soon as he saw the young scribe wearing a mask, he opened his mouth and asked, "Senior nephew, where have you practiced?"
The young scribe respectfully said, "I am practicing the second seal." ”
Xu Ying sat there, as if muttering to herself, "Slow, slow." ”
The young scribe was puzzled and said, "Master, but is there anything wrong? The master and nephew have been practicing according to the arrangement of the master, didn't the master let the master and nephew be as stable as possible and properly distribute all the divine elements, without asking for speed?"
Xu Ying felt inexplicably irritable in her heart, and only said, "In short, you have to hurry up." When he had said this, he got up and went out, leaving the young scribe standing there with some unknown reason.
