"My lords, what do you think of this matter?"
In the Prime Minister's Mansion of the Xia Palace, Li Si looked at the secret note sent by the guard, his face was calm, but his eyes were shining with strange light.
This secret note contains all the recent living conditions in various places in Daxia.
Ever since Qin Wuhen promulgated the decree banning martial arts, the whole of Great Xia has been in a state of excitement.
Daxia was built on military force, especially after gathering the Golden Dragon of Luck, many monks became Taoist monks.
Up to now, more than 80% of the people in the court are monks. The monks who were originally stuck at the peak of Nascent Soul and the peak of divine transformation have broken through one after another. The powerful gods of transformation are like rain, and the masters of returning to the void are like clouds.
Not only in the imperial court, but also among the major sects of the major families in Daxia, a strong man named Huixu appeared like new bamboo shoots after the rain. In just a few months, there were even strong men in the Hedao realm who broke through.
According to Jin Yiwei's statistics, there are now more than ten strong men in the Hedao realm in the Five Prefectures, and there are even hundreds of strong men in the Return to Void Realm!
You must know that in the original Six Dynasties of Cangzhou, those in the realm of transformation into gods were already considered strong. As for the realm of returning to the virtual world, they were already worthy of being known as foundations, let alone those in the Hedao realm!
Under such circumstances, how could it be so easy for Daxia to ban martial arts!
Due to the power of Daxia, it is extremely difficult for those Jianghu forces to make them surrender to Daxia and obey the imperial decree. But now Daxia wants to intervene in their Jianghu fights and is not even allowed to use force. How about asking them? How can it be accepted?
In just a few days, no less than a hundred fighting incidents occurred in Daxia.
With the presence of the Jinyi Guards and the Eight Gates, as well as the assistance of the six legions, no major riots occurred.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
However, what really makes Li Si and the others feel troublesome is a new legion that has emerged recently, the zombie legion!
That's right, it's the zombie army led by the general!
This legion is truly terrifying!
In the past few days, those monks or aristocratic sects in the six mansions of Great Xia who openly violated the imperial edict have all been killed in the hands of the zombie army in all likelihood, and then turned into members of the zombie army.
In less than ten days, the number of members of the zombie army has exceeded 500,000, and it is still growing at an extremely fast rate!
At this moment in Daxia, it can really be said that everyone is in danger, and people in all prefectures and counties are panicked.
After all, the zombie's ability is really terrifying!
As long as it is bitten, it will be assimilated into a zombie in just a few breaths.
If you are lucky enough to be bitten by those second-generation or first-generation zombies, you will be fine, and you can still retain your memories of your life. But if you are bitten by those low-level zombies, you will become confused, unconscious, and turn into a monster that only knows how to suck blood.
Whenever those zombies are dispatched, there will be at least one second-generation zombie leading the team, and there have been no incidents of harming innocent people yet.
But what if something unexpected happens?
If these zombies get out of control, it will be a huge disaster for Daxia!
Therefore, just the memorials received by the Xia Palace in the past few days have almost filled the entire Prime Minister's Palace, and nine out of ten of them are about this zombie.
It was really tiring for Li Si and Xiao Ping. The Prime Minister's Mansion was short of manpower, so Li Si also invited Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui to help deal with it.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, since the general is the commander of the regiment personally appointed by His Majesty, we have no right to intervene. Moreover, the general has personally written a letter to ensure that no unrest will occur. Why should we worry?"
Wei Zheng's face was calm, he put down the memorial in his hand and looked at Li Sidao: "Speaking of worries, what we should really worry about is the public sentiment. This ban on martial arts has caused unrest among casual cultivators, aristocratic families and sect disciples in various places in the five prefectures. There are countless, these are all hidden dangers left behind after the implementation of the county system, and we must pay attention to them!"
Hearing this, everyone also frowned slightly.
Xiao Ping said: "The imperial examination will not be held for the time being, but the construction of the academy is basically in the completion stage. There are basically academy branches in each county of the five prefectures. After the academy is opened, the sects of the aristocratic families in the five prefectures will be If it creates a huge impact, this hidden danger will gradually disappear. However, due to the lack of a tutor, the Academy has not opened its doors for enrollment."
"What did Mr. Guigu say?" Li Si asked with a frown.
Du Ruhui said: "I went to Jixia Academy yesterday to inquire. Mr. Guigu meant that the key to this matter still lies with Emperor Yan!"
Emperor Yan?
Xiao Yan!
Everyone's eyes lit up.
"That's right! As long as Emperor Yan first refines a batch of elixirs and releases these elixirs, he will definitely attract many powerful casual cultivators, even disciples of aristocratic sects!"
Wei Zheng said excitedly: "Emperor Yan has been in seclusion for many days. I don't know what the situation is. I'll go take a look!"
"Let's get together!"
Li Sidao: "It is said that Emperor Yan's method of refining alchemy is a bit strange. Unlike other alchemists who do not allow others to disturb them, the alchemist brought to Xia Palace these days has been observing Yan Emperor's elixir refining. There is nothing important to do today. We Let’s go and have a look together.”
"good!"
Everyone smiled and nodded.
…
Northwest of Xia Palace, in a spacious hall.
Dozens of figures wearing various colored robes gathered in the hall. Most of these people had gray hair, and many were even in their seventies, but they were all in good spirits.
At first glance, there were about sixty people.
These sixty people are indeed alchemists gathered from all over Daxia!
Whether they were originally serving the other five dynasties or some casual alchemy masters, they had all gathered here under the iron-blooded methods of the Daxia court.
The entire Daxia Dynasty had a population of more than one billion, but there were only about sixty alchemists. You can imagine how difficult it is to become an alchemist!
The cultivation level of these alchemists is not high, the strongest among them are only at the realm of spirit transformation, and most of what they can refine are only low-level pills.
But their status in Daxia is extremely high.
For example, the treatment of the six alchemists who previously served the Xia Palace was comparable to, or even worse than, some worshipers in the Divine Transformation Stage!
Even after Qin Wuhen ascended the throne, he never treated them badly, but instead improved their treatment a lot.
From this we can see how noble the alchemist’s status is!
But at this time, these sixty alchemists were like primary school students, with pious expressions on their faces and excitement in their eyes, nervously watching the scene going on in the center of the hall.
There, there was a huge dark and simple alchemy furnace, with milky-white flames burning in the furnace. In the flames, a colorful substance as big as a basin rolled in the flames.
And in front of the alchemy furnace, there were two figures.
One of them was Xiao Yan, who had changed into a moon-white gown. He was sitting on a sandalwood recliner with his legs crossed and leisurely looking at the situation in the alchemy furnace.
The other person is a young man with silver horns and shiny skin. He is about twelve or thirteen years old. He holds a black cattail leaf fan in his hand and is squatting on the ground, fanning hard at the vent of the alchemy furnace...
