Ji Xia and the others immediately thought of the scene in the jade slips of the Great Talisman, where the seven strong Talismans used the talisman tool to manifest a giant rune hammer, killing thousands of three-headed beasts with one hammer.
"What happened afterward?" Ji Qianqing's mind was sharp, and she realized that Heiyi Mingqing still had something to say.
Heiyi Mingqing heard Ji Qianqing's question, with a look of fear on his face, he swallowed: "The lord, the general, later I separated from the other two Mingqing, I went to Zhou Qingcheng, and the two of them went to Chiyan Mountain. , I drove all the way, and finally came to Zhou Qingcheng, and saw..."
His face became more and more frightened, Ji Xia frowned and shouted, "What did you see?"
The black-clothed Mingqing shuddered and said in a trembling voice, "I saw three men in black from a distance, manipulating an eight-clawed spider like a small mountain, constantly devouring the city under the moonlight. corpse!"
"Half of Zhou Qingcheng has collapsed, and countless rubble, stones, and dust have buried many Zhou Qingren's bodies. The eight-clawed spider wielded its sharp spider legs. A few corpses..."
"Blood flows on the ground, forming a small river, flowing silently, and the eight-clawed spider under the moonlight is covered in fluff and stained with blood. It looks terrifying!"
"My servant didn't dare to approach at that time, so he got up and returned immediately, and hoped that the lord and general would atone for their sins!"
Ji Xia looked at the paleness on the black-clothed sergeant's face due to fear, shook his head and said, "You can bring back this information, it's already a great achievement, I'll give you three days off, and go to the pharmacist's mansion to get it. Some soothing herbs, go home and rest."
The black-clothed minister retires.
Po Xian and Ji Qianqing looked at each other, Ji Xia frowned in thought.
Ji Qianqing glanced around a few times, and suddenly asked, "The lord, I haven't seen the Monarch for more than ten days. Is it because the lord sent me to do something?"
Ji Xia glanced at Ji Qianqing and asked, "Do you know the origin of that mountain-sized octopus spider?"
Seeing that Ji Xia was unwilling to answer this question, Ji Qianqing didn't bother and shook her head.
Po Xian also shook his head, hesitantly said: "Recently, there is an intersection with Zhou Qing, so there is only Dafu, maybe this eight-clawed spider is Dafu's handwriting?"
"Zhaoqu and I have talked about the country of Dafu in detail." Ji Xia said: "Although Dafu tells the weak and small races to kill, but the devouring of corpses seems to have nothing to do with Dafu, they do not cultivate Evil arts, and very few people keep monsters."
He rubbed his eyebrows: "But that huge rock must be the handwriting of a strong Dafu, and Zhou Qing must have angered Dafu for something."
Ji Qianqing nodded, agreeing: "The upper race kills the weaker races, just like eating and drinking water. Zhou Qing was killed by Dafu, but half of the population was slaughtered, but he certainly didn't dare to be angry or speak out. Maybe he could mobilize Zhou Qingjun stationed in Cangqing Mountain. It is to complete the mining of Chiyan Stone faster, so that the big rune may be able to breathe anger.”
The cruelty of the boundless wilderness can be seen. Tens of 10 people were slaughtered, and the corpses were still dripping with blood. The stench must have lingered for dozens of miles, but Zhou Qing's rulers did not dare to have any dissatisfaction. They could only do their best to please Dafu.
"No matter what the reason for Dafu's anger, Zhou Qing and Dafu's deal that put a lot of pressure on Tai Cang will most likely not exist. According to the temperament of these big countries, they have angered them, and it would be a blessing not to kill Zhou Qing. How can Zhou Qing dare to ask Dafu for a negotiated remuneration?"
Po Xian analyzed it calmly, with a little sigh in his tone. Tai Cang and Zhou Qing were hostile, but as countries of the same level, one side was slaughtered so easily by a powerful country, and the other side couldn't help feeling a little sad.
Ji Xia let out a long sigh, and her tone changed from cloudy to sunny: "Anyway, the dark cloud that Zhou Qing and Dafu cast on Tai Cang's head has dissipated because of this incident."
Ji Qianqing took a deep look at Ji Xia: "I don't know why Zhou Qing would anger such a behemoth, there must be some hidden secrets."
Ji Xia's expression remained the same: "Maybe."
Chapter 75 The Land of Melons and Fruits
The next day, the meeting.
Ji Xia, dressed in a large silver-edged brocade, sat lazily on the throne, with all the officials standing respectfully.
There are also many Tai Cang officials who take turns to play.
"The country's lord ordered the Craftsman's House to collect rocks, cut down trees, build Lingyun Pavilion on the side of the royal court, and enshrine the heroes who sacrificed their lives for Tai Cang and the human race. Now all the craftsmen of the Craftsman's House are dispatched to prepare for the construction of the pavilion." , play things.
Ji Xia raised her eyelids slightly and asked, "What's the problem?"
Lu's face was a little ugly: "There is not enough wood. The newly-born wood in the periphery of the Nanjin Forest has been cut down by Taicheng Prefecture."
Taicheng Borong Building was about forty years old, and he was meticulous in his clothes and buns. He heard Lu's words and snorted coldly: "The wood on the periphery of the South Forbidden Forest has been cut down as early as the middle of the year. , as a reserve for the warmth of the sun, you are thinking of filing a complaint now, isn't it too late?"
Rong Lou's words were unceremonious. He heard Lu Yan blowing his beard and staring: "The establishment of Lingyun Pavilion is the decree of the king's golden mouth. If you cut down the trees, you can distribute some of them!"
"Could it be that providing the people with heating is not the emperor's jade order?" Rong Lou said unceremoniously, "Besides, the wood has been sawn into adult forearm lengths by the servants of my Taicheng House. If House Master Lu wants it, I will I'll give you some."
Lu's case is speechless. Where can wood with short arms be used to build an attic?
Ji Xia watched with interest the two high-ranking officials arguing, and seeing that they were both silent, he smiled and said, "Since the trees on the periphery of the South Forbidden Forest have been cut down, the Ronglou will allocate some suitable for building pavilions. Give the wood to the craftsman's house, let me think of some ways for heating matters, the bones of Tai Cang heroes are now placed in the palace, and there is no way."
Ronglou came out of the queue and bowed.
Only then did Lu Case throw a provocative look at Ronglou, who was so complacent. Ronglou knew this old urchin very well and laughed it off.
"Since there is no more wood available for felling in the periphery of the Nanjin Forest, I ordered the common people and the soldiers to wander there." Ji Xia ordered again.
The South Forbidden Forest is a very special place in Taicang. The reason why it has a forbidden word is because this dense forest is indeed a forbidden place.
According to legend, there is a big monster entrenched in it. This big monster does not hate other creatures, but prohibits the monsters from running out of the jungle. No one knows the specific secrets, only that few monsters run out of the depths of the jungle. .
If a creature enters the deep forest, it will never come back, so the successive rulers of Tai Cang strictly prohibit the people of Tai Can from entering the deep forest.
The court meeting lasted for about half an hour, and many political affairs were settled. When the court was about to disperse, Ji Xia stood up, stretched out, and between the wrists, a head-sized spar appeared in his hand.
The appearance of this spar is almost the same as that of the spar-washing spar, only the color is slightly different. The spar-washing spar is dark, but this spar is emerald green and crystal clear.
It was the vein-building spar that Ji Xia exchanged a few days ago.
He gently tossed it, and a strand of spiritual essence protruded from his wrist, held the vein-building spar, and sent the spar to Ji Qianqing.
The group of Tai Cang generals behind Ji Qianqing suddenly showed overjoyed expressions on their faces. They stared at the crystal stone suspended in front of Ji Qianqing, and almost drooled.
"This is a vein-building spar, and it is related to the pulp washing spar that made the Tailai Spiritual Water. You put it into the Tailai Spiritual Water Pool for the soldiers to drink every day." Ji Xia order.
Ji Qianqing's face that has remained unchanged for thousands of years also shows a rare look of joy. As a general of Tai Cang, what he cares most about is the strength of the soldiers.
She respectfully saluted, and then held the Vein-Building Crystal in front of her in her hands. She understood in her heart that the reason why Tai Cang's military could greatly increase in a short period of time was because of the Tailai Spiritual Water bestowed by the lord of the country.
Now that there is this vein-building spar, I believe that the strength of Sergeant Tai Cang will jump up again.
"Where is Poxian City Lord?" Ji Xia looked at Poxian.
Po Xian went out to salute, Ji Xia said: "In Cangcheng, there are still three thousand soldiers who have not been able to take Tailai Lingshui. I can't favor one over the other, but there is only one vein-building spar, so I can't take care of the two cities. What can you do?"
Po Xian thought for a moment and said, "Now Zhou Qing is too busy to take care of himself, their national order, ecology, and regulation have all been destroyed by that punishment!"
"Now they are suppressed by the pressure of mining spirit gold. It seems that they are united. When they complete this task, Zhou Qing will definitely erupt a huge turmoil. Before the turmoil subsides, it is absolutely impossible for Cang Qingshan to attack Cangcheng!"
"Your Excellency will lead a thousand troops back to the city, and then order his generals to bring back all three thousand troops who have not taken Tailai Lingshui back to Taicheng! As long as there are a thousand troops in Cangcheng to maintain the basic order, there will be no major problems. hinder."
Ji Xia nodded and praised: "Po Xian looks at the problem, but it's straight to the point, so it's what you say."
There was still a lingering smile in the corner of his eyes: "As for Zhou Qing, even if the turmoil subsides, he will no longer be able to peep at Tai Cang, this punishment has completely destroyed it, and now they are just lingering on, waiting for a few people in the west to be killed in the past. The small country he bullied and dominated reacted, and it was the moment of Zhou Qing's demise."
The officials in the Hall of Supreme Harmony already knew that Zhou Qing was punished by heaven, and most of Zhou Qing's city was destroyed by heaven.
The smiles on their faces continued. In just a few months, the two previously insurmountable powerful enemies suffered heavy losses one after another, which made them extremely happy.
