The boy from Taixuan Hall brought the sandalwood chair, table, and Qingshen incense burner, and arranged a job case for Fang Jian in the left hall of Taixuan.
However, Fang Jian stopped the boys from placing screens in front of their desks, so Fang Jian's position was at the top right of the entire left hall, overlooking the entire hall and able to have a panoramic view of everyone's expressions and movements. .
But Fang Jian soon felt that something was wrong. How could it be that he was here to invigilate the exam?
Especially since he, the underling, is still a sinecure and has nothing to do. If he is on duty here, he can only sit there stupidly.
No, this person can't be too idle. Fang Jian feels that he shouldn't sit here all the time.
It happened that there were still a few things in hand that had not been dealt with, so let's go and do them first. Thinking of this, Fang Jian stood up from the sandalwood chair.
Just getting up immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall. The envoys, scribes and scribes raised their heads and stared at Fang Jian with extremely nervous expressions.
Fang Jian chuckled and asked everyone, "Why are you looking at me?"
"..." Everyone shook their heads and quickly lowered their heads, but quickly raised them again.
Fang Jian felt a little ridiculous. These guys were too sensitive, so he said, "It seems you have something to tell me? I originally wanted to go out for a walk. In this case, I will stay here for a while."
As Fang Jian was about to take his seat, the young man sitting at the front quickly said, "It's nothing, nothing. In fact, everyone just wants to see the style of Master Hongqing..."
After the young man spoke, a girl behind him also spoke: "Master Hongqing, please go and do your work if you have something to do. We really just want to have a glimpse of you, Master Hongqing."
Fang Jian smiled faintly and asked, "Is everything really okay?"
"No, no." More than twenty people shook their heads in unison.
Fang Jian glanced at everyone in the hall, then nodded and said, "Well, since there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
"Farewell to Master Hongqing." Everyone stood up and said.
Fang Jian waved his hand, then turned around and walked out of Taixuan Left Hall, heading straight for the Lei Department.
...
Leibu, Tianbu Tingsi.
Ji Hong, the Prime Minister of Tianbu Tingsi, welcomed Fang Jian into the palace. After sitting down, he asked, "Master Chengwu has come to visit our Tianbu Tingsi. What orders do you have?"
Fang Jian laughed loudly and said: "You are the Prime Minister of the Tianbu Court and a second-grade immortal official. I am a fourth-grade immortal official. If you talk to me like this, it will give me another bad reputation."
Ji Hong burst out laughing when he heard this and said, "Okay, then I won't give you a bad reputation."
After speaking, Ji Hong said: "But I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Tell me, does Master Hongqing have anything important?"
"It's a trivial matter. Ten years ago, the four thunder masters of the Thunder Department suppressed a flower demon. Now ten years have passed, and the seal of the flower demon has not been lifted, so I came to ask." Fang Jian said.
Ji Hong was slightly surprised when he heard this and said, "A flower demon? What kind of flower demon is actually acquainted with you, Master Hongqing?"
Fang Jian shook his head and said, "It's me who started this..." Then Fang Jian told the story of how the flower demon was suppressed and the result.
After hearing this, Ji Hong slapped his forehead and said with a smile, "So that's what happened."
After saying that, Ji Hong said to a thunder soldier in the palace: "Go and ask Thunder Lord Shenxiao to come over."
"As ordered." Upon hearing this, Lei Bing immediately respectfully accepted the order and left.
Not long after, the majestic and majestic Thunder Lord Shenxiao, dressed in a thunder robe, stepped into the main hall of the Tianbu Tingsi.
"Meet the Prime Minister." After Lord Shenxiao entered the palace, he immediately paid homage to Ji Hong.
Ji Hong raised his hand and pointed at Fang Jian sitting next to him and said, "Lei Gong, do you recognize this person?"
Upon hearing this, Thunder Lord Shenxiao immediately turned around and saw that Fang Jian was also in the main hall. He was slightly surprised now. This Hongqing Daoist Daoist progressed so fast. As a true immortal, he didn't notice it at all when he entered the hall. .
And this situation can only show that Fang Jian's Taoist cultivation is higher than him.
"It turns out to be Master Hongqing. I have met Master Hongqing." Thirty-sixth Heavenly Thunder Lord is a fifth-grade immortal official, so the current Fang Jian is also a head above him in rank.
Fang Jian smiled slightly, then returned the favor.
At this time, Ji Hong said: "Thunder Lord of the Sky, ten years ago the four Thunder Lords of Punishing Evil, Order of the Society, Patrolling the Sky, and Surveying the Land suppressed a flower demon. Now the time has come and the seal has not been released yet. Look what happened." thing."
The Thunder Lord of Shenxiao is the leader of the thirty-six Heavenly Thunder Lords. Hearing this, he immediately bowed respectfully and said, "Yes."
Then he took out a book, opened it, and said after a moment: "Sir, there is a reason why this demon has not been unsealed so far."
"What's the reason?" Fang Jian asked.
Thunder Lord Shenxiao said: "In the mountain where this flower demon was suppressed, there lived a monk in the realm of refining the void. His disciple was the great Taoist Master Yuhua. Six months ago, Thunder Lord Xuntian and the others were about to unblock the flower demon, but they... I found that the flower demon seemed to have an emotional entanglement with the monk, so for the sake of the monk, Xuntian Lei Gong and the others discussed keeping the flower demon in check for a few more decades."
"...Nonsense!" Ji Hong reprimanded and said: "There are rules and regulations for punishing evil and rewarding good, how can we allow nonsense? The monk in the world is not an immortal official, so what does it have to do with my Lei Department to fall in love with a demon? Besides, that flower During the demon suppression period, he did not make any mistakes and he will be released when the time is up."
Thunder Lord Shenxiao lowered his head and listened to Ji Hong's scolding without saying a word.
After Ji Hong finished reprimanding him, he said fair to Shen Xiaolei: "Go down to earth immediately and release the flower demon."
Thunder Lord Shenxiao raised his head and immediately bowed and responded: "As ordered."
"I'll go with you." Fang Jian said to Thunder God Shenxiao at this moment.
Thunder God Shenxiao was slightly surprised, but he quickly came to his senses, nodded and said, "Okay."
Fang Jian stood up and bowed his hands to Ji Hong to say goodbye. Ji Hong also stood up and sent Fang Jian out of the hall before turning back again.
...
Yangxia County, Peach Blossom Mountain.
Hua Ling'er was sitting cross-legged under a peach blossom tree, watching Zhou Qinghan in front of him practicing his spells.
I saw Zhou Qinghan raised his hand, and a clear spring suddenly flew out of the air. Zhou Qinghan slapped his palm, and the clear spring suddenly turned into more than a dozen arm-thick springs. Then under Zhou Qinghan's guidance Flying towards the dozen or so peach trees around.
In just one cup of tea, Zhou Qinghan used the 'raw water' method to water hundreds of peach trees in the mountains.
Hua Ling'er immediately clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, your water-generating technique and water-bending technique have been practiced to the point of perfection."
When Zhou Qinghan heard this, he immediately said: "My Taoism has now reached the realm of refining the void, can I travel around the world?"
Hua Ling'er sneered at the words and said: "I was already in the Void Refining Realm a hundred years ago. If I hadn't been suppressed for ten years, I would have entered the Baodan Realm long ago. Besides, let alone the mere Void Refining Realm, even if Even if you are in the Dan Bao realm, you can't say that you are walking around the world.
I have been practicing in Qianyun Mansion for four hundred years, and I haven't even completed the journey to Zizheng Kingdom. You'd better save this little bit of practice. "
Zhou Qinghan was not angry at Hua Ling'er's disdain, but asked seriously: "Then what kind of path can I travel around and be able to protect myself?"
Hua Ling'er thought for a while and said: "At least a true immortal must have a magic weapon in his hand and a magical power. Otherwise, let alone traveling around, he won't even be able to leave Zi Zhengguo."
When Zhou Qinghan heard this, he suddenly felt melancholy and couldn't help but sigh: "What an immortal..."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden "boom" in the sky above his head, and then a bolt of lightning immediately struck the top of Peach Blossom Mountain.
Immediately afterwards, a thundercloud floated in mightily, and waves of heavenly power also fell from the thundercloud, covering the entire Peach Blossom Mountain.
