In two years, based on the starry sky coordinates provided by Yan Yu, Lanling's army moved all the ancient stars in the universe to the Canglan Star Region.
The blue star field was originally several light years in diameter.
Now the star field has expanded more than ten times.
This place has become the center of the upper universe, with hundreds of millions of ancient stars with life.
Each living ancient star has rules left by the powerful gods, which are used to offset the gravitational influence between ancient stars.
To ensure the ecological environment of the ancient star.
At this point, the Dawn Dynasty has basically completed the unification of the upper universe.
Just as everyone in the dynasty was cheering and celebrating, a terrible disaster struck.
At first, people thought it was some ancient plague virus that had been released.
Later, it was discovered that those who contracted the plague actually began to become delirious, with red hair growing out of their skin, long sharp fangs growing out of their mouths, and their pupils turning blood red. They were violent and bloodthirsty. Just attack and bite.
The managers of each region immediately reported the news to the court.
An Ning learned about it and immediately informed Jingya, Yan Yu and others.
They immediately came to the local area to check the situation.
"This is a curse evolved from the darkest power!
It seems that it was the work of dark creatures. They allowed those who devoted themselves to darkness to sneak into the dynasty's territory and cast a curse. "
Yan Yu and Jing Ya could tell at a glance.
"It's really a curse from darkness, these dark creatures really deserve to die!"
An Ning's eyes were cold, "Fortunately, Junshen was well prepared. We have refined a large number of purification pills over the years.
However, although there are many purification pills in stock, the dynasty now has a vast territory, and the number of living beings is as many as the sands of the Ganges River.
The curse of darkness spreads too fast, and the purification pills in stock may soon be used up.
We must let the medicine halls in each city that refine purification pills refine them as quickly as possible and increase their output, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous! "
After An Ning finished speaking, he looked at the city officials who were following him respectfully, and said: "Immediately notify the major medicine halls in the city that this is a dark curse, and ask them to take out the purification pills to treat the people, and at the same time open a purification pill distribution point. !”
"Follow the emperor's order!"
The officials bowed in response and then said: "Your Majesty, after all, the purification pills in each pharmacy are refined by themselves. If they were allowed to distribute them for free, would they..."
"Tell them that the imperial treasury will allocate funds to subsidize them, and go ahead."
"yes!"
The officials left in a hurry.
Jingya, Yan Yu, and An Ning returned to the imperial capital immediately.
She immediately issued an order to have all the medicine halls in the dynasty do their best to treat those infected with the curse, and to open purification pill distribution points. The dynasty would provide financial subsidies to each medicine hall. "
Medicine halls in various cities have taken action under the supervision of officials.
The curse spread very quickly, and in just a few days, it had spread to the dynasty.
Although there are purification pills, the number of purification pills is completely insufficient for the huge number of infected people, so it cannot be eliminated at one time, and sometimes people are infected twice or three times.
Each city had to try its best to isolate those infected with the curse.
Despite this, it was still unable to completely stop the spread of the curse, and even the army was infected.
Each medicine hall keeps refining purification pills for twelve hours to meet the huge demand.
In this way, the number of dark curse infections has been controlled to a certain extent.
The Dark Messenger has been observing the situation of the Dawn Dynasty.
They were shocked and angry to see that the Dawn Dynasty could actually refine an elixir to purify the curse!
What are the ingredients of the elixir?
Can it actually purify the curse that evolved from the darkest power?
They couldn't believe it.
If the people they sent to sneak into the Dawn Dynasty had not continued to cast curses, the curse that broke out would have been completely purified soon.
However, the quantity of curse source liquid is limited and cannot be released forever. Once it is used up, the plan will completely fail.
"how so!"
The leaders of the Soul Hunting Temple, Tianjing Holy Sect, Fallen World, and Muyang clan gritted their teeth and looked gloomy.
…
Time passes day by day.
It has been several months since the outbreak of the dark curse.
The extent of the curse's outbreak is always controlled.
At first, people in various cities were panicked.
At that time, people were extremely panicked when faced with the dark curse.
They looked at their relatives with red hair growing all over their bodies and fangs growing from their mouths, feeling desperate and horrified.
Later, after taking the purification pill, the curse was resolved, making people less afraid of the dark curse.
The curse continues, and a large number of people are cursed every day.
On the street, you can often see people who suddenly break out in curses.
This kind of curse actually has its own consciousness.
They change according to changes in the environment and become more and more latent.
From the beginning of being cursed, it became painful and tormenting, and now I feel nothing.
It suddenly broke out one day.
As a result, there will be riot scenes on the streets at any time.
The army has stepped up patrols to prevent the people from being attacked by the cursed ones, and all departments in each city are operating at high intensity.
…
In the imperial capital, in the palace hall.
An Ning frowned, looking at the memorials presented by officials from various cities, and couldn't help but rub his forehead.
Over the past six months, Dynasty has continued to pay financial subsidies to various medicine halls.
At first, they didn't say anything.
But in the past two months, many medicine halls have expressed their opinions.
They said the subsidies provided by the dynasty were too small and simply not enough.
The prescriptions for purification pills were given by the imperial dynasty to various medicine halls. They only needed to provide manpower and the most basic holy spring water, and the cost was very low.
Although the subsidy she asked the treasury to provide was not large, it was completely sufficient for the material and labor costs, and there was still a slight surplus.
Until now, those drug stores asked her for money and said the subsidies were not enough.
The dark curse spreads, and everyone should have responsibilities and obligations.
Under such circumstances, those medicine halls are still trying to make a profit!
An Ning was very angry, which made all the officials in the court panic.
"Your Majesty, do you want to give them a beating? These medicine halls have no sense of social responsibility at all, and they are bargaining with you. How unreasonable!"
“What’s the reason to bang?
The output of our dynasty's pharmacy is not enough to support the huge demand, so we have to rely on them to refine purification pills.
Besides, when they open a medicine hall, they themselves are profit-making institutions.
Although their request made the emperor angry, it did not violate the law.
As the emperor, how can I directly use my power to suppress him?
At least not yet. "
“What the Emperor said is true, but the past few months have strained the national treasury.
If we agree to increase subsidies for them, the state treasury may not be able to come up with that much money..."
A minister said.
The imperial treasury was originally very full.
However, the dynasty has expanded so rapidly in recent years that the number of dynasty subjects on the ancient planet Canglan alone has reached hundreds of millions.
There are so many people cursed this time that every city's medicine hall needs financial subsidies.
Speaking of which, the subsidies given by each pharmacy are not very large, and they are only relative to their output.
In fact, every expenditure is an extremely large amount.
"Let's pass this hurdle first." An Ning sighed, "There are still funds in the treasury, and even if the subsidy amount is increased, it can still support it for another two months.
Judging from the current trend, the dark curse should be completely resolved in two months.
Besides, even if the treasury runs out of money, it can still issue treasury bonds.
Nowadays, there are many people in the dynasty, and the issuance of national debt should be able to solve a huge amount of funds. "
"But my lord, if that happens, we will have to pay a huge amount of interest rates in the future!
Besides, if the national treasury is empty, wouldn't the equipment upgrades of the three armed forces and other people's livelihood projects be temporarily stopped?
The veteran believes that, apart from increasing subsidies, we can choose the other two plans proposed by various medicine halls, which is to allow them to sell purification pills for a fee.
As long as the emperor issues an imperial order to strictly limit the price of purification pills, it will not be a burden to the people.
The people of the dynasty lived a prosperous life and had accumulated a lot of savings over the years.
A purification pill is priced at one hundred dawn coins, which should be very reasonable.
One hundred dawn coins is just three days' basic living expenses for an ordinary family of four. "
"I second the proposal. This can relieve the shortage of funds in the treasury and make the pharmacies profitable. They will not object, so they will work harder to refine the purification pills and solve the dark curse.
The curse caused by the dark creatures this time cannot be entirely borne by the dynasty.
It should be borne by everyone.
The dynasty must develop so that it can better fight against darkness in the future, so the army's equipment must be upgraded and the supply of military pay and supplies must not be reduced! "
An Ning thought in silence for a moment, and finally accepted the advice, "Then, as the ministers have said, I will leave this matter to you.
There must be no mistakes. The price of purification pills is strictly controlled. The price is unified within the territory of the dynasty. Anyone who dares to sell at a higher price will be severely punished!
Notify city officials that the Dynasty’s free purification pills will continue to be provided to people in special circumstances!
If there is any negligence or dereliction of duty in the city they manage, I will ask them!
Retreat! "
…
In the compound on the mountain near the palace.
Jun Wuxie has been practicing in the talisman formation on the top floor of the main building for a hundred years.
Today, he has already broken through the realm, and has completed the entire cultivation of the realm since he entered and exited the realm back then.
Now I have entered half a step into the realm of gods.
His goal is to break through to the realm of gods before the powerful men from the Xuanyou Realm arrive.
Regardless of whether a powerful person from the realm of God Lord crosses the border in the Xuanyou Realm, he must try his best to make the most perfect preparations in order to be able to deal with it with ease.
After a hundred years of practice, his improvement was not just as simple as going from the ultimate realm of true god to a half-step god.
His current state of intensive cultivation of innate chaos has also reached the current state of supreme saint from the state of saint that he practiced intensively back then.
Just the refinement of various realms has increased his strength countless times.
After using the Innate Chaos Sutra to refine to a great state, as more and more great states are refined, the innate chaos essence in the body becomes more and more majestic and pure.
Within the talisman formation, time passes year after year.
Within the territory of the imperial dynasty, another half a year has passed.
An Ning originally thought that the problem of the dark curse should be ended within a few months.
As a result, the dark curse has not been solved in the past six months.
According to reports from officials in various cities, the effectiveness of purification pills sold in medicine halls in many cities has been significantly reduced.
In the past, taking one would completely cleanse the dark curse.
Later, a purification pill could only be used for half a month, because it did not completely purify the dark curse in the body of the cursed person, but only temporarily suppressed it, and it would relapse after half a month.
Unexpectedly, slowly, officials from various cities reported news that the effect of the purification pill was getting worse and worse.
It was shortened from half a month to ten days, and then to seven days.
As of now, one purification pill can only last for three days.
This means that every three days, people with a dark curse need to purchase a purification pill.
Since the common people did not want to increase the burden on the dynasty, no one went to receive the official free purification pills.
As a result, officials in various cities have not applied for purification pills from the imperial pharmacy for a long time.
People also thought it was a problem caused by curse mutation.
Until last month, officials in various cities felt that something was wrong, so they applied for purification pills from the Imperial Pharmacy and secretly took them under the dark curse.
It has been almost a month and has not happened again.
They checked in various ways and finally determined that the purification pill could completely purify the dark curse.
In other words, there is something wrong with the purification pills refined in various medicine halls!
…
"They are simply looking for death!"
An Ning looked at the evidence that the people from the Prison Department had found over the past few days and was already trembling with anger!
Since she took charge of the dynasty, she has never had such a burning intention to kill anyone within the dynasty!
"Royal Lord, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
asked the two commanders of the Prison Department, Xu Wuying and Feng Yu.
"How dare they dare to modify the purification elixir recipe in this special era and face the darkness, and make a huge fortune for the country, how can I let them go!
It's just that this matter is very important and involves many medicine halls in various cities.
Those medicine halls were probably the property of families with some status in the dynasty.
This matter is left to Junshen to deal with. I will go to Junshen now to see how they die! "
After An Ning said this, she quickly left and headed towards Jun Wuxie's residence.
…
In the cabinet of a certain medicine hall in various cities of the dynasty, a group of people wearing brocade clothes and looking wealthy were sitting together drinking tea.
Every one of them had a smile on their face.
"General Manager, how much money have we made this month?"
An old man in brocade clothes came forward, his face almost burst into laughter, he took out his account book, looked at it, and said: "Reporting to the head of the family, the revenue this month was more than 1.7 trillion!
Otherwise, under the unified dynasty, there are advantages to having a large population, and there are also many people who are cursed. There are business opportunities everywhere. We have made a lot of money in the past few months, hahaha!
But, Patriarch, this matter must not be hidden, do you think the Emperor will..."
“What are you afraid of? The benefits are directly proportional to the risks.
Besides, there are so many people cursed, and the dynasty needs us to refine the purification pill.
Even if they knew it, it would be nothing more than punishment. How could they still kill us?
If we are killed, who will refine the elixir to solve the dark curse?
The output of the imperial dynasty's own pharmacy was far from enough to supply.
Nowadays, all the medicine halls in various cities that refine purification pills use this method, and they are not ours.
Even if Junshen comes out of seclusion, he can't kill us all, can he?
Taking some punishment in exchange for huge profits is a good deal no matter how you look at it.
Chief steward, don't worry.
Isn't the reward given to you enough during these days? "
"No, that's not what I meant. Of course I also want to help the family leader make money.
Seeing this huge profit makes me so excited that I can't control myself.
It’s time for them to squeeze out the savings that the common people have accumulated over the years! "
The head steward said with a smile.
Such scenes were staged in different cities and medicine halls at different times.
