Chapter 274 273. Dragon Vein Golden Ganoderma (Subscribe!)
"If it were something else, I might have to consider it, but since it involves the first generation of the Imperial College's chief priest, then I will naturally take the responsibility."
Chen Boxian agreed immediately.
Taoist Qingshan did not agree directly: "I still have a question."
"Master, please tell me." Tianpeng showed an expression that showed he was willing to hear the details.
Taoist Qingshan said slowly: "If this bone girl wants to bring about a disaster, it won't be enough to kill a few people. She may even have to slaughter all the people in this city."
"I remember that there was only one example of a ghost as good at enchanting and transforming as the Bone Girl, and it was a disaster caused by the 'Demon Concubine Bringing Disaster to the Country'."
"It is recorded in historical books that there was a female ghost who transformed into a princess and dragged a prosperous country into the abyss with her own strength. Such a heinous evil deed caused her to become a disaster and a symbol of the 'disaster' side of heaven."
The magical power of incense and fire follows the path of "order" and represents the "positive" side of this world, that is, merit;
The path of sin and evil follows the path of "destruction" and represents the "opposite side" of this world, namely karma.
"I don't know either." Tianpeng shook his head. He was also confused about Taoist Qingshan's question.
"But the Bone Girl is not only good at charm and illusion, she is also good at killing."
"It might instigate a formal war between Guidao and Dasheng, and unleash a dangerous and chaotic war, which will lead to a disaster like 'no roosters crowing for a thousand miles, and bones exposed in the wild'!"
Taoist Qingshan nodded: "It is possible. Recently, the confrontation between Guidao and Dasheng along the coast has become increasingly fierce."
"If the demons outside the Great Wall were not ready to make a move, the Southern Border Witch Kingdom would be like a venomous snake that is difficult to control. We could not divide our troops to deal with Ghost Island, and we would not allow it to wreak such havoc."
“But right now, this possibility is probably very small, right?” Taoist Qingshan said with a half-smile, “With the Four Seas Dragon Palace appearing, doesn’t Ghost Island want to get a piece of the action? I’m afraid it won’t rashly raise an army at this time!”
"That's why I said it's possible." Tianpeng said in a deep voice.
It was with this in mind that he couldn't figure out what the bone girl was thinking.
But it doesn't matter.
If the abbot of Baiyun Temple and the chief academician of the Imperial College were willing to take action, he would be confident that he could capture the skull girl alive.
"This matter concerns the safety of the imperial capital city. I am willing to lend a helping hand to True Lord Tianpeng." Taoist Qingshan said.
He had already agreed in his heart when Tianpeng asked for help, but he had a strange feeling, so he asked a few more questions.
"Thank you both." Tianpeng bowed sincerely.
"There's no need to do this. It's all for the sake of righteousness." Taoist Qingshan and Chen Boxian made way slightly and did not directly accept the other party's courtesy.
"Stop being so fussy." Chen Boxian urged, "Let's go."
The words fell.
The figures of the three people disappeared in Baiyun Temple.
Prince Su's Mansion.
The unconscious second son of Prince Su and Princess Su were escorted out of the palace by several demon hunters.
The rest of the assassins were also disarmed and sent to the dark prison of the Arctic Exorcism Institute.
"The first one is Prince Su." Xu Qing looked at the list, "The next ones are Prince Duan, Prince Xiangfu, Marquis Jingni, and Marquis Guangde."
"I hope that these places won't take measures like the Prince Su's Mansion, otherwise we won't be able to finish the work today."
"Let's go, next one."
Leaving some people behind to count the property, Xu Qing led his men to rush to the next house without stopping.
Within one day, all the royal and noble families on the list were visited, and the resistance afterwards was much less intense than that of the Prince Su's Mansion.
Occasionally, if there are some who are stubborn and unyielding, Xu Qing doesn't even need to take action, as Feng Lingchen and Qin Hongsheng can handle the problem.
Until the sun sets and dusk falls.
Xu Qing and the others returned to the Arctic Exorcism Institute. "I'm so tired."
Feng Lingchen slumped in his chair. He raided so many houses in one day, the intensity of which was comparable to a hearty battle.
"Tired, but happy." Qin Hongsheng smiled slightly, "Do you know how much we copied today?"
Hearing this topic, Feng Lingchen was no longer sleepy: "How much?"
"It's impossible to quantify it with money." Qin Hongsheng kept it a secret, "I can only say it's definitely beyond your imagination!"
Feng Lingchen said unhappily: "You might as well not say that!"
"Sir, the inspector." Qin Hongsheng ignored Feng Lingchen's criticism and said, "This is something that someone below copied from a certain family."
"This is..." Xu Qing looked at the plant with golden flames burning on its surface, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes, "Could this be the Dragon Vein Golden Ganoderma?"
Longmai Golden Ganoderma is a kind of Ganoderma that grows beside dragon veins and is the most precious variety of Ganoderma.
Due to the special nature of the dragon vein, it has always been exclusive to the royal family of every dynasty and is one of the most important resources for the royal family to practice.
“That’s right.” Qin Hongsheng nodded. “The Dragon Vein Golden Ganoderma grows with the Dragon Vein. For cultivators, it is no less than the legendary great pills.”
"Since it's something I copied, would it be bad if you took it?"
Xu Qing is not that pedantic. It is certain that there will be corruption during the house search, but how can he take something like the Dragon Vein Golden Ganoderma?
And now that he is in the position of "Inspector", countless eyes are watching his every move.
If you make a mistake, all kinds of hidden arrows will come at you immediately.
"Who do you think I am?" Qin Hongsheng said with a smile, "This is what Tianyou Zhenjun ordered me to give to the inspector."
"Master Tianyou?" Xu Qing frowned slightly.
Why is it Tianyou Zhenjun?
As far as he knew, of the four saints of the Arctic Exorcism Institute, Zhenwu was stationed in the North Gate, Yishen was in the Southern Frontier, Tianpeng lived in the Imperial Capital, and Tianyou was in charge of the countries in the Western Regions.
At this time, Lord Tianyou should be in charge of the countries in the Western Regions, so why would he send a message to Qin Hongsheng?
"Yes. It was an order from Master Tianyou on the way back."
Qin Hongsheng then explained: "Most of the things seized during the house confiscation will eventually be returned to the national treasury, but a small part will be left in the Arctic Exorcism Institute for processing."
"After all, the task of dealing with the Fengyang Imperial Mausoleum keeper was placed on the Beiji Exorcism Institute. We can't just do the work without getting any benefits, right?"
"As for the Jingwang Mansion, the Zongren Mansion, and today's house seizure, the inspector was at the forefront and made the greatest contribution."
"So Tianyou Zhenjun ordered me to hand over this dragon vein golden mushroom to the inspector."
“Although I don’t know why it was True Lord Tianyou who issued this order, logically speaking, all affairs of the Imperial Capital should be handled by True Lord Tianpeng.”
Xu Qing glanced at Qin Hongsheng and saw that his eyes were clear and calm. After thinking about it for a while, he took the Dragon Vein Golden Ganoderma.
No matter what, if you don’t take advantage of the opportunity, you’d be a bastard. The spiritual object like the Dragon Vein Golden Ganoderma is a rare elixir for spiritual practice.
In addition, his senior sister is currently in the Imperial Capital City, so if there is any small move, his senior sister will definitely help him out.
Xu Qing put away the Dragon Vein Golden Ganoderma and returned to Baiyun Temple.
The following days.
Everything seemed to be over at once. Xu Qing's life was no longer disturbed by various troubles, and the expected hidden arrows did not come.
Time passes slowly.
Soon, the forty-nineth year of Longshun passed and the new year arrived.
It’s too late. I’ll check and revise it tomorrow.
