At the same time, Chang'an City, the Imperial City, and the Hongji Hall where the West Inner Garden is located; as the blades of the waterwheel to cool down and cool down slowly rotate, cool water mist is constantly sprayed from the holes in the walls; or it turns into water. In the indoor landscaping room, a gurgling small fountain flows.
In this cool and comfortable atmosphere, the Xijing Supervisor, who was leaning on a rock to enjoy the coolness, waved his hands in confusion and complained: "Auspicious, why is it auspicious again? Isn't it possible? All those people below have learned how to Now, do you only report the good news but not the bad news?"
As he spoke, there were things placed on silk and lacquered wooden trays in the front hall of the palace. They were bunches of grains and other items; among them were corns as thick as calves. , there are also ears of wheat with grains as big as beans, and millet as big as beads.
In addition, beside the pillars at the entrance of the main hall, there are some giant pumpkins that are so big that two people need to hug them; melons as thick as cow legs; and dumplings as big as tabletops. It was just tied with a ribbon and placed on the ground, with freshly harvested juice and gravel on it.
And on the table in the middle, which was secretly put together, a cold melon/watermelon as big as a water tank has been cut into half, revealing the extremely ripe bright red flesh inside. As a result, the room is filled with the unique sweet and fresh fragrance of fruits and vegetables.
"Your Highness Mingjian, this is not a clever idea of young people, but the product of the Eight Classics of Emperors and Villas in various places." Hai Gong, the uncoverer beside him, explained with a smile. : "I dare not hide it from Your Highness. The products harvested this summer are all extremely large."
"That's it. I was ordered to patrol the imperial properties in various places. Everywhere I saw there were many riches. They were all said to be a rare and prosperous year." At this time, another internal official present quickly nodded and agreed. : "The scholars and the common people all say that this is the reason why the emperor's way was prosperous."
"The prosperous age of the emperor?" However, His Royal Highness the Supervisor, who was leaning on a large green stone with a relaxed face, sneered: "From ancient times to the present, has anyone heard of the continuous disasters of beasts and the frequent occurrence of monsters? The prosperous age of the emperor? It’s just an excuse to brag and even deceive oneself and others.”
"Your Highness! This slave deserves to die, this slave is incompetent." Hearing this, Hai Gong and others couldn't help but fell to the ground in fear: "I can't help you share your worries, let alone repay the Holy Majesty; but these things, I have taken the trouble to deceive and conceal them from you. Therefore, it comes from the sincerity of our hearts!"
"Okay, okay, King Gu understands. Don't ask for death at any time." His Royal Highness, the guardian, turned over on the rock again and changed into a comfortable position. He waved his hands lightly and said: "I don't want to be harsh on anything, it's just this It saves the effort of whitewashing the scene."
"If you want to worry about being alone, you should pay more attention to the activities outside. These days, the number of beasts, ghosts and aliens reported to have been killed from all over the pass is probably not in the thousands, right? But I don't know what the results will be, and the damage will be How much, that's what Gu is concerned about."
"This is all thanks to the strategy proposed by His Highness. With the imperial court issuing a reward, people with lofty ideals from all over the world rushed to catch and kill him in order to serve the country." After hearing this, Haigong stood up again and couldn't help but be respectful. He smiled and said: "So, there is a lot of excitement now."
"The imperial court mobilized all parties to offer rewards to catch and kill the aliens in the world. This is not a strategy of Gu, but it comes from that person... what is that person's name? By the way, it is Jiang's suggestion." However, the man lying on his back on the rock His Highness the Supervisor shook his head and said, "It's time for him to return to the capital!"
"Reporting to Your Highness, Wu Desi recently reported that this man has arrived in Gyeonggi Province by boat after handling a public case in Pinglu County." At this time, another internal official quickly said: "I think it will be soon. , he will enter Beijing and start taking over the corresponding errands."
"Then let's send someone to investigate and give Gu Gu an accurate information." After hearing this, His Highness the Supervisor also waved his hand and said: "Lao Hai, on the other side of the secret censorship department in Xijing, you should also do a good job for me. Keep an eye on it and make sure it comes into use as soon as possible, so as to further reassure people."
At this time, a low-pitched announcement came from outside the hall again. Immediately, an unsigned letter was presented; His Highness the Supervisor took a look at it, but couldn't help but stand up from the rock solemnly and said: "Come here, go to Uncle Zong to inquire about something, but there is still a daughter of the right age. "
But Jiang Tian, who was being watched secretly, calmly disembarked from the dock in West Weicang; then transferred to the Jinwu Guards' carriages and horses that came to pick him up and escort him, and slowly headed towards the capital; only this time In Hekouqiao City, he saw something different.
Those are the large and small iron cages waiting for transportation. Most of them are strange animals escorted from various places in Guannai Road. During this period, local officials successively discovered and captured creatures with varying degrees of mutation and deformity;
Therefore, Jiang Tian not only saw cows with six or seven horns on their heads, but also pigs whose bodies were covered with hard tuber shells; horses and monkeys that looked like the legendary mandrills with dog-like faces; and monkeys that looked normal in appearance. But there are some ferocious and irritable big rabbits that gnaw on the iron bars and make noises;
However, both the soldiers and civilians present and the local sergeants in custody seemed to be somewhat accustomed to this; they were just pointing and watching without much fear or fear. It seems that Jiang Tian has seen him many times during his absence.
But there are also some unusual corpses of creatures; for example, a corpse with only the upper half left, covered in water plants and algae. Jiang Tian was stunned and did not see what it was; another example was that most of the body was almost flattened, An oversized lizard/newt with only its head left.
And these strange things followed Jiang Tian and his party for more than ten miles; but they did not enter the capital, but came to the southwest corner of Chang'an City between Yanping Gate and Anhua Gate. Here, an original temple was transformed into a military camp.
Therefore, under the archway outside the mountain gate of the temple, Jiang Tian not only saw groups of sergeants in helmets and armors on duty and patrolling; he also saw that the original temple plaque had been replaced with a new logo "Zhenping Camp". It looks no different from other garrison camps set up in Gyeonggi Province.
However, when Jiang Tian and others were led into the depths of the temple and finally arrived at the Xumi Hall located on a platform, they discovered that there was another cave inside. The original Buddhist altar, altar and curtain furnishings were all cleared away, leaving only the empty painted walls.
However, on the original base of the Buddha shrine, an iron gate was temporarily transformed. As the iron gate and partitions were slowly opened, a deep and cold coolness suddenly blew in. Wind, and revealed a corridor extending downward.
This corridor has obviously been widened and reinforced, and at least it can easily pass and meet carriages; there are still bright lights shining on the four walls; therefore, walking in it does not seem cramped and tiring; from time to time, there is the sound of running water accompanied by a cool breeze. Blowing out from the corridor.
Therefore, Jiang Tian didn't walk along this spacious corridor for long; after probably passing three forks, he suddenly saw the iron fence and the armored sergeants on duty on both sides again. The leading official will show his ID card and talisman, and then open them after verifying the password.
After walking out of the iron gate, Jiang Tian suddenly saw nothing in front of him, but he saw a giant underground space that was familiar yet unfamiliar. That was the place where he had explored, chased and fought. It was also the origin of many stories and causes and effects, the destroyed underground ghost city.
