The blue spirit wheel rotated slowly, and a spirit seal engraved on it was also emitting a faint light.
However, a golden three-legged divine bird was standing on top of his spirit wheel, closing its eyes and resting its wings!
The moment Dusan saw the divine bird, great fear appeared in his heart again.
Ji Xia, who was at the top, picked up the stone cup on the table, took a sip of the contents, and said slowly: "You must never have the idea of absconding by sweeping these three mysterious square bags. It is about to wake up, the day the divine bird wakes up is the time when the supernatural power will explode."
"I wonder if General Dusang's spirit wheel can withstand this level of supernatural power?"
Dusan's face trembled slightly, and he remained silent.
He never thought that he came to Taicang full of confidence and wanted to kill the king of Taicang, but in the end he ended up like this.
"I also ask Lord Ji Xia to make it clear."
With his head lowered slowly, his tone was weak, and he spoke to Ji Xia.
Ji Xia looked at Du Sang with a cold tone: "Looking at your performance in the next three months, if you work hard every day and deliver meat to Tai Cang on time every day, I will consider letting you live for a few more months."
Du Sang got up, walked to the middle of the hall, and knelt down to Ji Xia with a height of more than ten feet.
Ji Xia nodded lightly, rolled her eyes, and a prank idea suddenly appeared in her heart.
He coughed lightly and said, "You will be my Tai Cang's takeaway officer from now on. From now on, when you go in and out of the palace every day, you only need to inform the guards that you are the takeaway officer appointed by the lord of the country."
Dusan raised his head, quite puzzled: "Takeaway officer? What kind of official position is this?"
1Chapter 16 The Day of Silence Comes
After the three suns sank, they finally did not rise again.
Fine snowflakes began to fall in the sky, and the temperature between the sky and the earth also began to drop gradually.
Ji Xia stood on the palace tower, looking at the quiet Taicheng from a distance.
Most of the city is completely dark, and only a few main roads and various important government offices can see sporadic lights.
It is hard to imagine how the creatures in the boundless wilderness spend one long day after another.
In the longer history, in the calendar commonly used in the boundless wilderness, November [-]st of each year is the beginning of the solitude, and the sun will not rise from that day on.
And every January [-]st is the time when the sun rises.
So precise, so punctual, as if it had been deliberately arranged.
Ji Xia has always been very curious about this completely unreasonable law.
For example, there are twelve months in a year, and there are only 30 days after each month. There are only 360 days in a year.
For another example, Riji is too precise.
If it is the natural movement of celestial bodies, there should be no difference in the slightest. After thousands of years, the difference of millimeters will also evolve into a terrifying gap.
However, it is said that the sun has existed since ancient times, and it has been like a day for thousands of years. This is a bit too accurate.
These questions are always lingering in his mind, allowing certain ideas in his mind to grow wildly.
He shook his head slightly, pushing the thoughts out of his mind.
"Lingyun Pavilion in the city has been under construction for more than a month now. How is the progress? The corpses of the heroes should be rested as soon as possible. It is not a solution to keep them in the palace."
With his hands behind his back, his heroic posture was even more upright, and he asked many ministers behind him.
"Reporting to the Lord, the foundation and half of the main body of Lingyun Pavilion have been built, but the craftsmen have been taken away to build houses for the newly moved people in the past few days, and the construction period has been slightly delayed."
Lu An, the head of the Craftsman's Mansion, took a step forward and reported to Ji Xia.
"Then what about the construction of the house? How is the progress? Is there any obstacle?" Ji Xia asked.
"Even if all the ministries of Tai Cang work together and have the help of Ji Shoujun, the progress will inevitably be slowed down by the arrival of the sun."
"Nowadays, lighting is still a huge problem. Qingyangyuan only produces a small amount of fixed oil core grass every year. The refined grass oil needs to be supplied to the royal court and the government. Where can I supply them with a large amount to build houses?"
Lu An bowed to answer, explaining the obstacles and difficulties.
Lu Yu came out and said: "Now there are still many things to be resolved urgently. I also want to ask the lord for instructions. Now that the timber reserves in the country have bottomed out, when will new timber be put into storage? If the timber is broken, the common people will be frozen to death."
"I already have a clue about the construction of the house. You can follow me to the construction site later to have a look."
Ji Xia turned around and said, "As for the matter of timber, Ronglou has already informed the two generals Ronglu and Chujiao. They have led two thousand guards and three thousand young and strong people to Zhou Qingguo to cut down trees."
Lu Yu was a little worried: "It's easy to cut down trees, but how to transport those timbers to Taicang? The snow will fall more and more. It's okay to clean up the city from time to time. The wilderness is wild and white, and it is too difficult to drive the cart. .”
"Don't worry about it, I've already informed the two generals Ronglu and Chujiao about the solution, and they will arrange it properly," Ji Xia said casually.
When Lu Yu and Lu An heard Ji Xia's casual words, they looked at each other and bowed in agreement.
"Where is the asterism of the Taicheng Boyong Building and Tai Cang Academy's acting master?" Ji Xia asked.
Rong Lou and Su Xing rushed out to salute Ji Xia.
"A few days ago, I asked you to look for talented people with talents and talents in cultivation from the Taicang Academy, the military, and the people. Did you gain anything?"
Rong Lou took a step forward and replied: "Reporting to the lord, there are already eleven candidates, most of whom are from the military and civilians. They are not only talented in cultivation, but also have extraordinary comprehension, comprehension, and tenacity."
Su Xing also said: "In my Taicang Academy, I conducted a detailed assessment according to the requirements of the lord, and there are thirteen candidates, including four Mr. Xuegong, and nine Taicang boys and girls."
Ji Xia nodded in satisfaction and said: "There is also news from Poxian, saying that eighteen citizens of Cangcheng who meet the requirements have been found. They have already set off and will arrive in Taicheng in a few days. Once they arrive, you will call The person you choose will enter the palace and come to see me."
Rong Lou asked: "Master, why do we suddenly need so many talented people?"
"You will know when the time comes."
Ji Xia didn't want to say more, and Rong Lou didn't ask any more questions.
"Then let's go to the place where the Jiangu people built their houses."
When Ji Xia issued orders, all officials responded together.
So Borong Building in Taicheng, who was in charge of this matter, led the way, and the palace guards carried torches smeared with grass oil, guarding all the officials, and walked towards the north of the city together.
None of the young and middle-aged people of the Jiangu tribe was lazy.
They expended almost all their strength and all their minds to build the house.
Because they know in their hearts that this is their future residence, and their wives, children, and parents will spend their lives here.
The house will shelter them from the wind and rain, and will shelter them through the death of the day.
