Zhao Xun's joke made Long Qingquan quite embarrassed.
"Ahem...I've been fine for a long time, but your junior brother, you've been in coma for several days, which frightened us."
Zhao Xun was really scared when he recalled the scene when he activated the Qingxu Mind Technique and the Haoran Qi to forcibly merge.
"Honestly, I don't know why you did that, little junior brother, but this may be the best way at the time. If that guy really enters the first-level demon realm, even if I join forces with Taoist Qinglian, I won't be his opponent. .”
Long Qingquan spread his hands and sighed.
Hearing him mention his mentor, Zhao Xun quickly asked: "Third senior brother, where is my master?"
"Taoist Priest Qinglian has gone to rest. We will take turns guarding you so that you will be taken care of as soon as you wake up."
Zhao Xun struggled to get up, feeling very weak.
It has to be said that the forced fusion of Qi this time cost him a lot of energy.
If the sea of consciousness hadn't been opened up by his mentor, Zhao Xun might not have been able to survive it.
"Well, that's good. To be honest, I didn't expect that the governor Zhao Qian would be a member of the Demon Sect. Now that I think about it carefully, everything seems to be logical. If he is a member of the Demon Sect, all the behaviors he has done to stigmatize himself are actually It’s all a cover-up.”
The best way to hide your identity is to ruin your reputation.
The governor Zhao Qian obviously knew this well.
As long as he has the reputation of being a corrupt official, no one will think of him as a practitioner, let alone a member of the Demon Sect.
Of course, the side effect of doing this is also obvious, that is, it attracts the attention of the court, or the attention of bad people.
Feng Hao had a very good eye for seeing people, and he could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Zhao Qian.
As for the specific problem, Zhao Xun needs to solve it.
Fortunately, Zhao Xun was freed.
"One thing I still haven't figured out is why the Demon Sect arranged for people to infiltrate the bureaucracy of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
The case is settled, but there are still some doubts that remain unresolved.
Zhao Xun sighed and said: "Huangzhou is prosperous, and it is also the hub of water and land transportation in the world. But in the end, it is just a local city, incomparable to Chang'an. If the people of the Demon Sect really have a conspiracy, why Don’t you send people to Chang’an City to hide?”
The third senior brother laughed when he heard this: "Little junior brother, are you kidding me? Hiding in Chang'an City, you are still a monster from the Demon Sect? How is this possible?"
Zhao Xun looked puzzled: "Why is it impossible?"
"Don't you know that Chang'an City is actually a huge talisman array?"
"talisman array?"
"That's right! This happened hundreds of years ago. When the Zhou Dynasty was just established, Emperor Taizu reached a deal with Meng Gong, the immortal Confucian at that time. The imperial court respected Confucianism as Zhengshuo, respected Confucianism, and established imperial examinations for promotion. A Confucian scholar. In return, Duke Meng set up three large formations in Chang'an City to protect the safety of the royal family and the people of Chang'an."
Hearing this, Zhao Xun suddenly realized.
In this world, Confucianism has long existed.
But its real rise came after the Zhou Dynasty established the Ding Dynasty.
To put it bluntly, Emperor Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty reached an agreement with the immortal Confucian Meng Gong to only respect Confucianism.
The imperial court's praise led to the rapid rise of Confucianism. As for the imperial examination, it was nothing more than a way to select scholars, and it had been happening for hundreds of years.
"Third Senior Brother Cai just said that Duke Meng had set up three large formations in Chang'an City. Which three were they?"
"This first large formation covers the entire outer city. Every corner of the 108th Street of Chang'an is covered by this large formation. Why can Qintian Supervisor Yuan Tiangang see every corner of Chang'an City, and why can he use the Grand View Mind skills? Because he can observe through this talisman array."
Long Qingquan swallowed his spit, paused and said: "As for this second formation, it is located in the Imperial City. You should be familiar with the Imperial City. The three provinces, six ministries, and various bureaus are basically located in the Imperial City. The Imperial City is Chang'an. The center of power is the center of operation, so this formation is more powerful than the one in Waiguo City."
"What about the third formation?"
Zhao Xun asked.
"The third formation is located in Miyagi City."
The third senior brother talked eloquently: "The palace city is where the emperor lives and where the crape myrtle constellation is. It is naturally the top priority. When Meng Gong set up the formation in the palace city, he also spent a lot of effort. This is also too great. The formation that Emperor Zu valued most."
"but..."
"But what?"
"However, the formation was moved and adjusted later. Because Emperor Gaozong abandoned the original Taiji Palace, and built a new palace at the location of Longshouyuan, which is now the Daming Palace."
Zhao Xun nodded.
The Tai Chi Palace is located on a low ground. It rains frequently in summer and is very humid, making it easy to get arthritis.
The Daming Palace is located in Longshouyuan. It has a very high terrain and is in the north. It is truly superior to the Fengshui. The Fengshui is the kind that all the Sixth Senior Brother will say well when they come here.
"Moving the formation requires a huge amount of energy and cultivation, so at that time the court invited several second-grade practitioners and above to work together to move the formation to the Daming Palace."
hiss!
Zhao Xun took a deep breath when he heard this.
It's so scary, it's so scary!
It took several second-grade practitioners to reluctantly move the large formation covering the palace city to the Daming Palace.
But back then, the Confucian Immortal Meng Gong was able to build three large formations including the outer city, the imperial city, and the palace city by himself. One can imagine his strength.
There is no harm without comparison.
Zhao Xun can judge that this Confucian Immortal is at least a first-grade person, and is probably a super-grade existence like the mountain chief.
No wonder the Demon Sect didn't dare to arrange for high-level practitioners to sneak into Chang'an City and work as undercover agents.
Because these three formations are so powerful.
Zhao Qian was able to block the aura in Huangzhou City, but he absolutely couldn't do it in Chang'an City.
"Ordinary people from the Demon Sect are just that. If they are exposed, they are exposed. They are worthless anyway. But Zhao Qian is not like that. He has already entered the third-level human demon realm. In the previous battle, he forcibly absorbed the vitality of heaven and earth to upgrade. He is about to enter. First-grade Heavenly Demon Realm. Although the Demon Sect’s skills are opportunistic, it is possible that those who can get a glimpse of the First-grade Heavenly Sect’s strength is by no means trivial, and their talent is even more extraordinary.”
The third senior brother said calmly: "I estimate that there will be no more than ten people like Zhao Qian in the entire Demon Sect, or even no more than five. They will naturally use such scarce resources wisely. And you have to know Huangzhou It’s no worse than Chang’an. Huangzhou is a water and land hub. If the Demon Sect has any ulterior motives, it will be far more convenient to spread to all the provinces, prefectures, and counties in the Zhou Dynasty through Huangzhou than from Chang’an.”
Zhao Xun was a little disappointed and said: "It's a pity that no one was left alive. Zhao Qian's soul should have died that day."
"No, Taoist Qinglian seems to have left behind a trace of Zhao Qian's thoughts. After a while, he might be able to find out something."
The third senior brother said calmly.
