Chapter Twenty-Six: Above the Court
"Xuanfu flower, salty, warm, and slightly poisonous. ”
"Drum essence grass, pungent taste, warm, non-toxic. ”
"Zuo He bamboo leaves, sweet, cold, non-toxic. ”
Du Fan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly spoke, for fear that Uncle Shen would make a move, and at the same time, his heart was slightly relieved, fortunately, these are some simple spiritual herbs, which are all planted in the Yao family's spiritual medicine garden, and it seems that this Senior Uncle Shen is not too embarrassed for him.
"You can stay, and you will live in this hut in the future, and you can come and go freely with this token on weekdays. Uncle Shen's expression slowed slightly, and he casually threw out a dark green jade token, which was caught by Du Fan steadily.
"Uncle Shen, the disciple's task has been completed, so I won't bother Uncle here, and the disciple will leave. Wan Baoshan originally planned to send Du Fan, who had broken his leg, to the outer gate medical hall for placement, and then arrange it after his injury was healed, and even considered whether to take out a bone continuation pill, but the bone renewal pill was worth a spirit stone, and he was a little reluctant, and when he was entangled, he didn't expect Du Fan to pass Uncle Shen's assessment, which surprised him and relieved him, but at this time he was anxious to retire and did not want to stay for a while.
Uncle Shen waved his hand, Wanbaoshan was like an amnesty, and before leaving, he didn't forget to look at Du Fan with pity.
This look was captured by Du Fan, and he couldn't help but feel a tightening in his heart.
"Why is your spiritual root so weak, forget it, anyway, I won't pass on your cultivation method, if you are in other places, you may be accepted as a registered apprentice, become an outer disciple for the path of cultivation, and even have the opportunity to become an inner disciple in the future, but in my case, you are the miscellaneous servant who takes care of the medicine garden. Uncle Shen released a divine thought and instantly covered Du Fan, first frowning and a little surprised, and then said something that made Du Fan extremely depressed.
"Dare to ask Uncle Shi, there are other miscellaneous servants here, if I have doubts about the way of cultivating plants and trees, I can also ask one or two. Du Fan asked cautiously.
"Naturally, there is. ”
After Uncle Shen finished speaking, he stopped talking, Du Fan waited for a long time, but the other party still didn't ask, and couldn't help asking, "Then what?"
"And then they died!" Uncle Shen said angrily.
Du Fan's body trembled for a moment, and he finally understood why Wan Baoshan looked at him with pity when he left.
"The spiritual objects in the spiritual garden must be cultivated well, if there is a decrease in production or a decrease in the quality of spiritual herbs, you will end up the same as those miscellaneous servants before.
At the beginning of the month, the sect will issue a list of spiritual herbs collected for this month, and you must sort it out and hand it in before the end of the month.
If the spiritual herbs are missing, you can go to the warehouse inside the door to get the seeds or seedlings of the spiritual herbs, it doesn't matter if you take more, don't take too much, otherwise the law enforcement inside the door will investigate you. If you have any questions, ask them quickly!" Uncle Shen leaned back with one hand, revealing his impatience.
"Senior Uncle Shen, if the spiritual herbs that the sect needs have not been cultivated in the garden before, and this spiritual herb cannot be matured in a month's time, how should it be counted in this case?" Du Fan thought for a moment and thought of a question.
"This situation can only rely on your daily experience, try to plant a part of each spirit herb, if the situation you said really occurs, it is naturally your responsibility, as for the result, I don't need to say it again. As soon as Uncle Shen explained slightly, he snorted coldly.
"Senior Uncle Shen, I have one last question, if I have a way to increase the production of spiritual herbs and meet the needs of the door, how to deal with the extra situation?" Du Fan plucked up his courage and finally asked the question he was most concerned about.
"I only care about the result, as for what so-called production increase method you use, I don't care, but if you make an accident, imagine the end. If you really have the ability to increase production while the order is completed in the door and the quality does not decrease, then the increased part is your personal property, whether it is to go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to buy exercises or go to the alchemy room to buy pills, I will not ask, but I advise you to do your duty steadfastly. In addition, the number and types of spiritual herbs existing in the spiritual garden are recorded, and if you misappropriate them privately, it will not be as simple as violating the door rules. Uncle Shen's face sank, and he was already dissatisfied with Du Fan.
"The token I just gave you, although you can enter and exit the inner door, but don't step into the heavy and forbidden places in the door, otherwise after violating the door rules, the first person to dispose of you is me! There is a detailed pharmacopoeia in the house, which records the introduction of all the spiritual herbs you will be involved in the door, as well as the experience I left, and you must not go out of the mountain gate if you have nothing to do. In addition, this place is handed over to you, I need to retreat, and I must not disturb you if I have nothing to do, you can do it yourself. After making the final explanation, Uncle Shen no longer paid attention to Du Fan who was standing there, flicked his sleeves, and left, leaving only Du Fan who was smiling bitterly in the huge spiritual garden.
......
At the same time, in the court hall within the Imperial City of the Fire Feather Country, hundreds of civil and military ministers were arguing constantly, and there was chaos.
"We must fight, not only to repel the army of the Fence Country, but also to take advantage of the victory to pursue, smash the Yellow Dragon, break through the Imperial City of the Fence Country in one fell swoop, and make this country a subsidiary of my Fire Feather Country, and from then on the world will be considered peaceful!"
"The sages said that the soldiers who surrender without a fight are superior, our country is a great country, a state of etiquette, even if there is a big war, it must not be rude, Your Majesty should repair a book, make peace with the feudal country, and avoid this war if it can be avoided. ”
"Fart! Everyone has hit the door, you still repair books and talk about etiquette, you have been kicked in the head by a donkey!"
"General Fan's words are wrong, even if you fight, you must salute before the soldiers, first of all, you must stand on your feet morally, this is the style of my great country, as for what General Bai said about breaking through the imperial city of the feudal country, it is purely a child's words, above the court, please think twice when you speak. ”
"Think twice about your sister, you old puppets who claim to have read the books of sages know a fart, the fence army is now camped three hundred miles outside Xinghuo Town, and they will invade the land of our Fire Feather Country in a few days, and we will only dare to invade them if they are hurt and afraid. At this time, you old immortals are still preaching morality, go home and reason with your father!"
"You...... You, why are you so vulgar, so rude, in front of His Majesty the court, under the gaze of the sages above your head, you dare to speak foul language, this is disrespectful to the sages, disrespectful to Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please punish General Zhao severely, otherwise the old minister will not be convinced!" An old minister who was over sixty years old, had gray hair, and had an extremely high official position, suddenly knelt down.
Sitting at the height of the main hall, the Ninety-Five Zun, in his thirties, dressed in a dragon robe, handsome, at this time holding his forehead, quite a headache.
At the top of the list of military generals, there stood a heroic middle-aged man, who was General Guo Xiong, and at the top of the list of Wenchen, was a thin old man, the prime minister of the Fire Feather State, Lin Anbang. These two people are not like other people who are arguing, at this time, they look at their noses and noses, their noses and hearts, they don't say a word, and they look like they are not moved by outsiders and external objects.
"General Wang, you still need to pay attention to one or two words in the court in the future, okay, today's court meeting is over, you wait to retreat. Seeing that the scene of the dispute below had stagnated slightly, the emperor suddenly perked up and hurriedly spoke.
"Yes, the ministers are retired. Although there were people below who wanted to continue to speak, they were also pulled down by their colleagues next to them, and they bowed down and retreated. It's just that after walking out of the court, the civil and military ministers all snorted coldly like a cockfighting demonstration, and then left.
After the hall was cleaned, only the emperor, the general, and the prime minister were left in the court, and the emperor rubbed his eyebrows with both hands and muttered, "It's finally quiet." ”
"Your Majesty, why should you bother with these ministers. Guo Xiong smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Whether they are civil ministers or military generals, they are all pillars of the country, and they are dedicated to the sake of the country, how can I chill their hearts, alas, it's just this matter...... I can't tell them. The emperor's face was bitter, very helpless, and sighed deeply.
"Your Majesty is the king of the Holy Wisdom, not only working for the country all day long, but also thinking about the courtiers in everything, which is really a great blessing for the country and a blessing for all the people, but Your Majesty must also pay attention to the dragon body. Prime Minister Lin bowed deeply and spoke sincerely.
"There's no one else here, don't be polite, just get down to business, Guo Xiong, what's the news?" the emperor waved his hand and asked directly about what he was most concerned about at this time.
"As we expected, this military change in the Fence Country was indeed carried out under the secret promotion of the Cultivation Realm of the Fence Country, and it seems that this time it is an open and secret battle between the sects of the Cultivation Realm, and the mortal soldiers and civilians of the two countries are just acting as pawns for the mutual temptation between the Cultivation Realm and the Immortal Sect of the two countries. Guo Xiong replied truthfully, with a helpless expression, and a wave of anger hidden.
"That's true, but even so, you should be ready to deal with the next big battle. The Emperor looked solemn and said after a moment of silence.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will do so. In addition, in this battle, should we unite the Tianxiang Kingdom in the north, the Liao Kingdom in the east, and the other eight countries in the northeast to send troops together, after all, these small countries are protected by our Fire Feather Country on weekdays, and if our Fire Feather Country makes a mistake, they will also suffer from the pond fish. Guo Xiong answered, and at the same time remembered another thing, and suddenly spoke.
"No need, as early as a month ago, these small countries have already written to me, saying some domestic natural and man-made disasters, hoping to be considerate, and so on, and at the same time sent a large number of gold and silver things, saying that they can support one or two clouds and clouds financially. By the way, then I'll send someone to send two boxes to the two of you. The emperor's face became a little ugly, and finally he said with some self-deprecation.
"Your Majesty said with a smile, these countries did this one after another a month ago, and there is a big problem in this, but there is some kind of consensus in the cultivation realm?" Prime Minister Lin shook his head with a wry smile and asked his conjecture.
"Probably so, Prime Minister Lin, my Fire Feather Country's cultivation realm is respected by the Empty Mulberry Gate, and major affairs in the country have always been contacted by you and this immortal gate, and this time I also sent you to investigate the situation in the cultivation realm, and at the same time seek a countermeasure for us and other mortals to deal with the war. The emperor ordered in a deep voice to the prime minister.
"Yes, the old minister will retire and go to brew this matter. Lin Anbang's expression was grim, and he turned around and retired.
