After eating the peaches, the Yaochi fairies still took away the peach stones. The Nine Heavens Xuannv ordered Qingyan boy to bring spiritual tea to Fang Jian and said: "You must practice seriously in Dongshen Hall, which will help you in your future journey." Very helpful.”
Fang Jian was drinking tea. Hearing this, he immediately responded: "Yes."
Jiutian Xuannv nodded and said with a smile: "I've eaten the flat peach, and I've said it. If you want to go somewhere else, go ahead. You don't have to sit here with me."
When Fang Jian heard this, he immediately stood up and walked out of the jade case and said, "Fang Jian, please retire."
Jiutian Xuannu said with a smile: "Go ahead. If you have free time in the future, you can come to Taishi Immortal Capital to sit for a while."
After saying that, Jiutian Xuannv said to the boy Qingyan on the side: "Pass on my decree. From now on, when Fang Jian comes to Taishi Immortal Capital, he does not need to report, and he can come and go freely at any time."
The boy in the Qing Dynasty immediately received the order and sang: "I will obey your Majesty's decree."
Fang Jian thanked her again, then said goodbye to Jiutian Xuannv, and exited the Taiyuan Hall.
After eating three nine-thousand-year-old flat peaches, Fang Jian felt that his Taoist realm and physical realm had improved a lot, and since they were both innate spiritual roots, the power of the flat peaches also greatly contributed to the growth of the innate thunder spirit treasure tree.
After Fang Jian walked out of the Taiyuan Hall, he moved his body and saw a burst of purple thunder and lightning flashing by. His whole person looked even more immortal and radiant.
After leaving Taishi Immortal Capital, Fang Jian went all the way to Leibu. It was now more than three hours before the next sermon at Dongshen Hall, which was enough time to have a good tea at Leibu.
Fang Jian was an old acquaintance of Lei Bu. He came directly to Tianbu Tingsi and received warm hospitality from Ji Hong, the prime minister of Tianbu Tingsi.
"The magpies were chirping early this morning. It turns out that Master Hongqing is coming." Ji Hong said with a smile after ordering someone to serve Fang Jian tea.
When Fang Jian heard this, he said differently: "Can magpies also be seen in heaven?"
Ji Hong smiled and said: "There are everything in heaven, but they are all immortal creatures, not extraordinary creatures. Naturally, these magpies are also immortal birds."
Speaking of this, Ji Hong sighed and said: "Master Hongqing is really young and promising. After completing his training in Dongshen Hall, he will be a super-grade immortal official."
As he spoke, Ji Hong personally made tea for Fang Jian and said, "But now I have to call Master Hongqing a superior."
As you can imagine, Fang Jian, who was only a fifth-grade immortal official not long ago, has become a first-grade immortal official in the blink of an eye, and will soon become a super-grade immortal official.
"There is no need to distinguish so clearly. We are all colleagues in heaven, so why insist on distinguishing one as superior and the other as inferior." Fang Jian said.
Ji Hong nodded and said: "That's true. It's all for the welfare of all living beings in the three realms. What's the difference between high and low?"
Having said this, Fang Jian asked Ji Hong, "Will the winter thunder start falling soon?"
Ji Hong nodded and said, "It's around the winter solstice, right? What's wrong? What do Master Hongqing think?"
Fang Jian asked: "Where will the winter thunder fall this year?"
Ji Hong took a sip of spiritual tea and said: "There are sixty-three states in Buzhou in the south, thirty-seven states in Shenzhou in the east, eight states in Luzhou in the north, and sixteen states in Hezhou in the west."
"Why are there so many Nanzhan continents?" Fang Jian asked with some confusion.
Ji Hong said with a smile: "You will know if you go and take a look. Nanzhan Buzhou Daomen, Buddhism, and Xuanjiao were beaten with blood, and if there are not more winter thunder, it will cause a catastrophe."
"Then I, Xiniu Hezhou, have too few. Dongsheng Shenzhou has thirty-seven states in Taiping. How come Xiniu Hezhou only has sixteen states?" Fang Jian asked doubtfully.
Ji Hong immediately explained: "Master Hongqing, don't get me wrong. In fact, this is a common practice."
Then Ji Hong explained to Fang Jian why there were so few winter thunders in Xiniu Hezhou. It was because before Fang Jian took office in Xitian Mansion, Xiniu Hezhou was completely the territory of Buddhism, and it was difficult for the power and belief of Heaven to penetrate.
Therefore, because the faith of Heavenly Court could not completely cover Xiniu Hezhou before, it was useless to drop so many winter thunders. Instead, it helped Buddhism spread its faith.
"Now the situation has finally changed." Fang Jian said: "Xiniu Hezhou is completely under the rule of Xi Tianfu. The majesty and faith of Heaven can cover every inch of land in Xiniu Hezhou."
When Ji Hong heard this, he immediately understood Fang Jian's purpose of coming to the Thunder Department, "Does Master Hongqing want to expand the area where winter thunder falls in Hezhou, Xiniu?"
"Yes." Fang Jian nodded and said, "The bigger the better."
Ji Hong pondered for a moment and said: "The number of winter thunders from the Tianbu Tingsi has been determined. If it needs to be changed, the plan must be re-drawn."
Fang Jian looked at Ji Hong, who lowered his head and thought in his mind, "To re-plan the number of winter thunders, we not only need to discuss with the thirty-six Thunder Lords, but also report to the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion again, but the Divine Thunder Jade Palace The government may not agree."
"Why?" Fang Jian asked.
Ji Hong said: "Because every time Heaven sends divine thunder to the mortal world, it needs to be planned in advance, and then reported to the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion. After the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion passes, the Five Thunder Emperors will issue an edict to allocate various personnel from the Food Institute. Grow the treasure materials, talismans and other items needed to reduce thunder. If the plan is temporarily changed now, it will not be the Shenlei Jade Mansion that needs to be changed, but also the accounts of the Food Institute."
Speaking of this, Ji Hong looked at Fang Jian and said: "If five or six states are temporarily added, the remaining materials and treasures in the Ministry of Finance's warehouse that day can be used to support one, but too many will not work."
Fang Jian said: "What if we want to cover the entire Xiniu Hezhou area?"
"A whole continent?!" Ji Hong exclaimed in fright, then looked at Fang Jian and said, "Master Hongqing, are you kidding?"
"I'm not joking." Fang Jian said: "Now that Xiniu Hezhou has been established, the power of heaven has been established, but power alone is not enough, you also need kindness, so I want the winter thunder to fall on the entire Xiniu Hezhou this year."
Hearing Fang Jian's words, Ji Hong shook his head without any hesitation: "It can't be done."
"Where is the difficulty?" Fang Jian looked at Ji Hong and asked.
Ji Hong said: "The Divine Thunder Jade Mansion will not support such a huge winter thunder descending on the world. First of all, the materials and treasures will not be consumed at all. They need to be prepared half a year in advance. Secondly, the Thirty-sixth Heavenly Thunder Lord does not have that much time. A general winter thunder fall on the entire Xiniu Hezhou will eliminate the need for winter thunder on the other three continents."
Fang Jian said: "Can the Thirty-Six Heavenly Thunder Lords be allowed to rain winter thunder on Xiniu Hezhou in advance?"
Ji Hong said: "If we start from now on, we can do it, but neither the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion, the Five Directions Thunder Emperors, nor the Thirty-six Heavenly Thunder Lords will agree."
"The problem lies in the materials, right?" Fang Jian asked.
Ji Hong nodded and said, "Yes, this is the most important question. Secondly, there is the Thirty-six Heavenly Thunder Lords, and they cannot agree to it."
"How about the supplies and treasures being handled by Xitian Mansion instead of applying to the Grain Institute for allocation?" Fang Jian asked Ji Hong.
Ji Hong was startled when he heard this, then looked at Fang Jian in surprise and said, "Solve it with Xitian Mansion? That's a huge sum of money."
Fang Jian smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist, you can give me a list of needed supplies and treasures so that the winter thunder can cover the entire Xiniu Hezhou."
Ji Hong was shocked and looked at Fang Jian. After a long time, he calmed down and said with a serious face: "Now that Master Hongqing has made up his mind, I have nothing more to say. I will sort out the list as soon as possible. But the Thirty-sixth Heavenly Thunder Lord still needs Master Hongqing to speak to him."
Fang Jian smiled and said, "This is natural."
Afterwards, Fang Jian and Ji Hong chatted together for a while, then stood up and left to find the Thirty-sixth Heavenly Thunder Lord.
The reason why Fang Jian wants to bring down winter thunder all over Xiniu Hezhou is because of the special effect of winter thunder.
First, collect the plague. Second, regulate qi. Third, hide the soil.
Let’s talk about the first point first. Winter thunder has one of the most important functions. If a plague breaks out or there is a potential plague in the world, the winter thunder can remove all the plague and miasma after it falls.
The second point is to regulate qi. This regulation of qi is not the qi of epidemic disease and miasma, but the qi of the earth and the spiritual qi. Dong Lei will dredge all the qi of the earth and spiritual qi in the human world and make them evenly distributed on the land.
The third point is to hide the soil. It grows in spring and grows in summer, and harvests in autumn and hides in winter. Winter thunder can lock the essence of the land underground so that it cannot wither and leak out, and nourish the land to ensure sufficient soil fertility and the prosperity and growth of all things in the coming year.
To do this, in addition to the first point of catching the plague, you only need to strike thunder from the five thunders: the disaster-removing thunder god, the poison-collecting thunder god, the plague-collecting thunder god, the poison-collecting thunder god, and the obstacle-breaking thunder god. The second and third points are also important. They are not thundering, but the divine power of the heavenly thunder that is refined with precious materials and sent to the human world after the thunder is stored in the thunder talisman, and then sent to the human world with the thunder and stored in the earth and land. Only then can all the qi be understood and locked away. Dihua.
"The whole territory of Xiniu Hezhou?" On the thirty-sixth day, Lei Gong was sitting leisurely in the courtyard of Lei Department. Lei Gong of Shenxiao, who was sitting in front of the chessboard, was so frightened that he dropped all the horses on the chessboard.
The Lei Gong of Si Xu who was playing chess with the Thunder Lord of Shenxiao and the Lei Gongs around who were watching the chess game were all dumbfounded. "Has it been approved by the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion?" Lei Gong of the Four Seasons asked.
Fang Jian shook his head and said, "I haven't reported to the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion yet."
All the thunder masters immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Fei Sha Lei Gong said at this time: "I will definitely not approve it. Master Hongqing, you want to tire us to death."
"That's right, in the whole territory of Xiniu Hezhou, we have to work on the Earth Calendar for about two months without sleep!" said the Disaster-Removing Thunder God.
Xing Yunlei Gongchao Fang Jian said: "Master Hongqing, give up, God Lei Yufu will not approve this plan."
The surrounding Thunder Lords also advised Fang Jian not to do this, "It's not good for everyone. Even though we Thunder Lords are gods, we also need to rest."
"Yes, Lord Hongqing, at worst, I'll give you a few more winter thunders in Xiniu and Hezhou this year."
"Yes, let's talk about winter thunder falling all over Xiniu Hezhou next year, next year."
"Come on, come on, Lord Hongqing, let's have some tea first. There's no rush in things like thunder. I won't feel sorry for you because you're so busy. Let's have some tea first."
"Master Hongqing, I'm not talking about you. We thunder masters go around surveying the sky and making thunder all year round. We finally have a few days of leisure before the winter thunder, but you come to ask me to go to work again, and you don't let people live! "
"I often tell people that Master Hongqing is the person I respect the most. When you were the God of Justice, the rules of heaven were best implemented. First, you defeated Dongsheng Shenzhou, then Beiju Luzhou, and now you are the West Tianfu Tianjun defeated Xiniu Hezhou again, which is a role model among us immortal officials. But you can't help but consider the difficulties of our colleagues. You just defeated Xiniu Hezhou, so let us strike winter thunder for the entire Xiniu Hezhou. Donglei, do you think you’re just playing house? That’s really tiring. Do you have any conscience in doing this?”
Fang Jian listened to the complaints and grumbles of the Thirty-six Heavenly Thunder Lords in front of him, and said with a smile: "If we can successfully bring down winter thunder in the entire Xiniu Hezhou, I, the Xitian Mansion, will give each of you Thunder Lords 50,000 calamity jade as a reward!"
"Fifty thousand tribulation jade? This is not a matter of tribulation jade. Wait, how many tribulation jade?"
Thirty-sixth Heavenly Thunder Lord suddenly reacted and looked straight at Fang Jian.
Fang Jian cleared his throat and said with a serious face: "If all the Thunder Lords agree to go out to strike thunder, I will report it to the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion, and my Xitian Mansion will pay each of the Thunder Lords fifty thousand calamity jade as a reward."
Fifty thousand tribulation jade, you must know that when Fang Jian hired eight Taiyi Golden Immortals from the Luzhou Demon Clan in Beiju, they only had 120,000 tribulation jade in four months, an average of 30,000 per month.
And if a winter thunder is struck all over Xiniu Hezhou, it will only take one month at the fastest and two months at the slowest without sleep. Fifty Thousand Tribulations Jade is definitely a sure profit. After all, the thunder masters only need to contribute, nothing else. They don't have to think about it.
So after Fang Jian spoke, the originally noisy Leibu Garden suddenly fell silent.
But after a while, the garden became lively again, and all the Lei Gong who were still complaining about Fang Jian at the beginning changed their tune.
"I have long said that Master Hongqing is the most benevolent. Look at how hard he works for the sentient beings in Xiniu Hezhou. It breaks my heart. Fellow Taoists, Master Hongqing is so benevolent. Do we have reason to look on with cold eyes? "
"No, absolutely not! For the sake of the sentient beings in Xiniu Hezhou, what does it matter if we have to be a little bit tired and miserable?"
"Yes, yes, this is a great thing to say."
"It is our duty to bring down winter thunder in Hezhou, Xiniu, and bring blessings to all living beings."
"Of course the Jade Jade reward is also indispensable. After all, we are not rich gods."
"Yes, we are fighting winter thunder all over Xiniu Hezhou. If we don't accept the Jie Jade reward, Master Hongqing will definitely feel guilty, and others will gossip about Master Hongqing."
"Yes, for the sake of the sentient beings in Xiniu Hezhou and for the sake of Master Hongqing, it is our duty to fight the winter thunder, and we have no choice but to collect the Tribulation Jade."
"That's quite right."
Fang Jian stood aside and looked at the Thirty-Six Heavenly Thunder Lords dumbfounded. He finally seized the opportunity and said immediately: "It would be better if all fellow Taoists could strike winter thunder in Xiniu Hezhou for free. I won't feel sorry for it, and I'm not afraid either." Others gossip.”
But as soon as Fang Jian finished speaking, the Lei Gongs collectively ignored him and returned to the chess table. Shenxiao Lei Gong and Si Xu Lei Gong also began to continue the chess game just now.
"Have you heard what Master Hongqing said?" Punishing Evil Thunder God asked.
The thunder masters all shook their heads and said, "Didn't you hear that? Didn't Master Hongqing just promise to give each of us fifty thousand calamity jade as a reward, and then leave to report to the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion?"
"Yes, you must have heard wrong. Master Hongqing has left long ago."
"You can hit the winter thunder, but I also want the robbery jade."
"No, no, no, Master Hongqing won't really refuse to give the jade, right?"
Hearing that the words of the thunder masters who ignored him could not be separated from the word "Jie Yu", Fang Jian said helplessly: "The robbery jade will definitely be given, but all the thunder masters must be prepared. Once the five thunder emperors approve it, they will go there immediately. There was thunder in Hezhou, Xiniu.”
This time the thunder masters saw Fang Jian again, and they all said to Fang Jian: "Don't worry, as soon as the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion Talisman arrives, and the Xitian Mansion Tribulation Jade arrives, they will start thundering immediately."
This is equivalent to Fang Jian, in the name of Xitian Mansion, with the approval of Shen Lei Jade Mansion, hiring Thirty-six Heavenly Thunder God to go to Xiniu Hezhou to strike winter thunder with a reward of 50,000 calamity jade.
