Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 22: How to pass the customs
What complicated ethical relationship is this? Xia Fan was astonished. The green sword of the Privy Council adopted a fox demon, and the fox demon wants to avenge the Privy Council in order to find his master?
Well, considering that the other party was no longer in the government when he adopted Li, it would be more appropriate to consider it as a personal grievance.
Defection is not a serious crime for the Privy Council. He is not clear, but since it is an internal high-level, it must be handled in the same way as a low-level alchemist. She said that the Privy Council would not endanger her life, maybe it was really possible.
This also explains why a fox demon is so familiar with the Privy Council.
Master was once Qing Jian, Na Li can be regarded as at least half of Qing Jian's apprentice. If she is not a monster, the single-round seniority may still be higher than the invigilator in charge of the examination!
"Why did your master escape from the Privy Council?"
"She didn't say the reason."
"Did she teach you all about the Privy Council?"
Li nodded weakly, "More than that, she taught everything I know."
Xia Fan's heart suddenly moved, "Also including knowledge related to alchemy?"
"I have taught a lot, and the so-called magic techniques that only humans can master are nothing more than this. They are not so profound and difficult to understand." She squinted and glanced at Xia Fan, "Why... do you feel offended?"
is this time, and I still don’t forget a few ridicules. Her master is really a good apprentice.
"Don’t you think I’m so arrogant that I’m so talented in magic skills?" Xia Fan said, "Even there are a bunch of candidates in Qingshan Town who are better than me. It’s no good to be overtaken by the fox demon. Strange."
"Don't you... feel disgusted?" This time it was Li's turn to be surprised.
Xia Fan was a little confused for a while, "What's the problem with this?"
"Are you really ignorant or pretending?" Li stared at him, "The Privy Council stipulates that the arts under the sky are owned by humans, and no aliens are allowed. Now the things you are proud of have been learned by the demon. Even better than you guys, don’t you have any ideas?"
"It's my ass." Xia Fan blurted out.
"What?"
"Uh..." Realizing that it is detrimental to his image, he quickly remedied, "I mean, standing still will not bring the slightest benefit, not to mention the fact that there is no class, learning from each other is the best way to improve yourself. "
At the same time, he is slanderous, and you are not the one I taught. What can I do? You learn fast because you have the ability. Is it because you are not as capable as a demon, you have to move out of the Privy Council to threaten the opponent? That would be too self-deceiving. There is also the **** rules of the Privy Council, but the fact is that the knowledge of spells is completely controlled by them, and most people have no access to it. Otherwise, he doesn't have to come to the scholarship exam for the sake of seeking knowledge and solving puzzles.
Li is also looking at Xia Fan. She frowned slightly, both of which were due to the tingling of the wound and the deep incomprehension-she could not tell whether the other party was lying, but she could feel the indifferent attitude in the other party's tone. This is really unbelievable. Even her master had hesitated when teaching her alchemy. After all, it was the alchemist's reliance above ordinary people. But the other party didn't seem to be aware of this at all-it made Li even have the illusion that in Xia Fan's eyes, he is no different from him; not only that, he is no different from those who cannot perceive qi. .
How is this possible?
The confusion in perception made Li speechless for a while.
She found that the more she touched her, the less she could see what kind of person he was.
"How about this?" Xia Fan's words interrupted her thoughts, "We will discuss the matter of cooperation again-the chat part remains the same. I will help you find out the whereabouts of your master. Isn't that okay? "
"Do you want to...help me?"
"Yes, but correspondingly, you have to tell me what you have learned." He said straightforwardly, "After all, as a fox demon, it is never easy to know the whereabouts of a green sword. , But if someone in the Privy Council takes care of it, the situation will be much better. How about it, this kind of opportunity will not be missed a second time."
Li couldn't help but open his mouth. Most of the alchemists who wanted to join the Privy Council did not seek power or became famous, so they would unconsciously maintain the prestige and rules of the Privy Council. And the person in front of him seemed to have no loyalty to the Privy Council. He wanted to dig its corner before he even entered, which was almost unheard of.
"Can I ask you a question?" She couldn't help but ask, "Why are you taking the exam?"
Xia Fan thought for a while, "Probably to set foot in a field I have never been to, and see the scenery I have never seen before."
An absurd answer, Li thought, but for some reason, there is an inexplicable sincerity in the words.
After a long silence, she sighed slightly, "If you insist on doing this."
"Are you agreeing?"
"The premise is that you can really pass this exam and become a member of the Privy Council."
She knew that she shouldn't agree. The monster and the alchemist never ended up getting too close, but the other party was right. She alone wanted to challenge the Privy Council, and the possibility of finding the master was slim. What's more, the other party saved her own life, and she has nothing else to compensate. This may be the only choice.
"This..." Xia Fan showed a slightly awkward smile, "Can I pass the next exam?"
Li was stunned and suddenly lost his temper. "Even in the Privy Council, I dare to say the big things I should say, but I am not sure about the result of the exam?"
"The situation is quite special now," he reluctantly recounted the general situation of the test, "No one knows what the situation of the Great Desolate Night of Qingshan Formation is. I'm good to say that if you bring it, you may not be able to guarantee it. It's safe."
"That's it." Li thoughtfully, "No wonder there are so many hoistways below the town."
"Hoistway?" Xia Fan asked curiously, "Is there any connection between the two?"
"Could it be that you don't know anything about Dahuang Shaye?" The fox demon raised her eyebrows, and she began to wonder if it was a mistake to cooperate with the other party.
"Ah, my situation is special... Has your master told you this?"
"Of course, it will not only affect the locals, but also involve many concurrency problems. Improper handling can easily go a long way. It is regarded as one of the most closely supervised evil phenomena in the Privy Council."
Sure enough, the fox demon's knowledge in this area far surpassed her. Xia Fan thought to herself that she was once a disciple of Qingjian, even if she was not better than the Luo family, who had no knowledge of the universe, she would definitely be much better than other candidates. He originally only wanted to learn about the monsters through the other party, but he didn't expect that she had accumulated quite a lot of magic skills, which can be said to be a surprise.
"Tell me in detail-about the Dahuang Shaye."
Li took a deep breath, "Well, it's just as you treat my medical expenses."
……
Two quarters of an hour later, Xia Fan finally had a comprehensive understanding of Dahuang Shaye.
According to Li's statement, it is not a rare phenomenon. In the last few years of the fall of the Eternal Kingdom, Sha Ye had appeared in many places. Whether it is wars, famines, floods, or changes in the sky, as long as there is a sudden increase in abnormal deaths, it is possible to trigger a great famine during the overcast season.
Since the heyday of each place is different, it needs to be monitored separately by the Privy Council. The scale of a great desert night vision can last for several years to decades, until all the accumulated grievances are dispersed. The "Resentful Soul" here is not exactly the same as what he had imagined. It is not the remaining consciousness of the dead, but the vision caused by the strong and strong qi.
When this special qi spreads and spreads, it will produce an effect similar to Wei Wushuang’s “living and dead, and the dead”. The recombination of qi and dead matter, that is, accumulation, will generate chaos. This kind of matter in the beginning of the universe is not compatible with any order in the world, and its essence is incomprehensible. Specifically, the corpse crawled out of the ground, the dead pierced through the coffin and attacked the still alive. Wherever he went, there were wailing and wailing, the so-called "great waste" meant this.
This reminded Xia Fan of a word: Zombie Siege.
He also specifically confirmed with Li that only the bones can move, and what he got is a blank eye. The answer is that not only the bones can't move, but the broken and decayed corpses can't move. They just provide a shelf. What really makes them move is the "qi" and the attached "accumulation". The latter can be soil, gravel, dead branches and other surrounding objects. When the resentment is strong enough, even without a skeleton, it can form itself. These things are driven by qi and will disintegrate on their own once they are exhausted, so the qi of the living beings is the best supplement to them.
This also caused his zombie perpetual motion machine experiment to be destroyed before it even started.
The Privy Council calls the small creatures in the evil night "magic", and the larger ones are called "magic". However, no matter whether it is a charm or a demon, there is no wisdom at all, and the reaction is slow. Therefore, there is a large city with strong walls. , Or the narrow terrain has a strong defensive ability against these evil spirits. What makes it really hard to guard against is that no one knows how many bones are buried under the town and where new enemies will emerge.
After the Privy Council became independent, the Ministry of Industry was required to re-enact the construction regulations~IndoMTL.com~ The most important one is that the cemetery should not be located in the city, at least one mile from the outer city wall, and no prisoners or unjust dead should be buried. And people of unknown origin. Animal carcasses must be burned together, and those who throw them away at will are regarded as crimes, which can be fined or imprisoned.
Li’s remarks made Xia Fan an eye-opener, and he understood why the other party mentioned the shaft—not only did the town have no walls, but even a wooden fence could not be seen, so the underpass under the dry well became relative A place that is easy to defend. Once they can't give play to their quantitative advantages, the threat of the charm of the opponent is not too big. If you stay on the safe side, it is still hopeful to stick to it for one night.
"If it doesn't work...you don't have to force it." Li whispered, "I've stayed underground in the town. The area for shelter is limited. There will be fifty or sixty people in at most. The risk of suffocation. Since you didn’t grab the top spot, I am afraid that most of the places you want to go now are already occupied by the noble family... If you are fighting against Sanmen, you may not be able to beat your opponent. And some shafts are too deep... Knowing what's hidden in it...If you only pursue concealment and smallness, you might put yourself...in danger. If you wait for another three years..."
Her voice became smaller and smaller, and her breathing became weaker.
At this time, Xia Fan noticed that the hair on the fox demon's forehead had been soaked in sweat, and it felt a little hot to the touch.
In order to finish the sentence, this guy actually insisted on his discomfort, didn't he even say a word...
He gently covered her mouth and interrupted her whispering, then got up and pulled down the window panel to return the room to the darkness, "This information is enough for me. You have to rest first, I Come here later to change the medicine for you. Also, don’t worry about the exam-there is no need to wait until three years later, I have found a way to pass."
