Chapter 785 The xylophone has an old friend, and the screen opens the fairy cave
"Brother, I just dreamed that the master apologized to me. I planned to hold back for a while, but my eyes went dark. You are too bad, and you won't let me have any good dreams."
"Hahahaha~"
As Qingying said, Chu Chen had just arrived at the post and was entangled in many things. He didn't stay in Qingchen Mountain Garden for a long time. Debriefing.
Guan Taoist Taoist Taihe was very satisfied with the outcome of the Ai family's sudden case, and fully affirmed Chu Chen's performance. He was very relieved when he said that he would hand over Yuqin Mountain to Chu Chen.
There has been a slight change in his speech and attitude.
At first, Chu Chen was appointed by Xianting to guard Yuqin. Although Taoist Taihe didn't say anything on the surface, deep down in his heart, he was still a little worried about the young Chu Chen who had just broken through, and worried about the young Chu Chen. Unable to take on this important task.
This is a person who cares what he should mean, whether he looks down on him or not, whether he underestimates or despises people.
Out of the Duguan compound, Chu Chen was in a pretty good mood.
He is not a masochist, he likes to be underestimated by others, and deliberately hides his clumsiness. As soon as he takes office, he can be recognized by Duguan, and his attitude has undergone a subtle change. I have to say that this is a good start, and it is worth celebrating.
Of course, in addition to getting the approval of his immediate boss, Chu Chen also reported the ransom of Wandu Huanggu during this trip.
A few days later, the ransom of the million dollars will be officially attributed to him.
For those with great supernatural powers, the salary of Xianting is quite meager, only two to three hundred thousand yuan a year.
The fairy materials and rare treasures that are also refining magic weapons start with millions of jade coins, and the salary of the Celestial Court of the Celestial Dynasty is not useful at all.
Of course, the Ai family’s extra money is an exception. Usually, they kill demons and heretics to collect the spoils. If they are lucky, they will get rich overnight.
Chu Chen has dividends from the dry shares of the Diyuan Chamber of Commerce, and has more sources of income, so he is quite affluent.
After arriving in Yunzhou, the chamber of commerce distributed a bonus. After some expenses, he still had about five million jade coins in his hands, plus the ransom of the million jade coins, a total of six million jade coins.
After leaving the State Department of Ghosts and Gods, Chu Chen did not leave the state city, but went straight to the Yunzhou Supervision Department, a quiet yamen in the east of the city.
Originally, he was going to take up his post in the Supervisory Department in the afternoon after meeting Taoist Duguan Taihe the day before yesterday, but due to an unexpected accident in Ai’s family, this was delayed, and he did not greet the Supervisory Envoy of Yunzhou for a long time.
However, Chu Chen didn't panic at all.
As soon as he arrived at the Yunzhou Supervision Department, a purple-clothed boy with red lips and white teeth greeted him and waved at him.
"Brother Ling Xiao, this way!"
"Junior Brother Zizhu, what are you busy with now?"
"Not busy, just in time for us to go."
Xiao Daotong is no one else, but "Zizhu", the spirit of the magic weapon under the command of Lay Qingzhu.
During the change of the Celestial Court, Qingzhu Layman, as the "Prince Party Taoist School", was reused, and was successfully elected as the Elder Elder of the Xianting Central Center. , in charge of the discipline of a state, and supervise all officials of ghosts and gods.
It was undoubtedly a huge promotion to be transferred from the State Council to the State Supervision Department.
The head of the Taoist Temple of the state is under the jurisdiction of the prefectural capital, and the state supervisor is served by the emperor's cronies, assisting the emperor to supervise the local area, which can check and balance the existence of the prefectural governor, state herdsman, and state city god, and hold real power, which is extraordinary.
Compared to the grandeur of the Yunzhou Government Office and the Yunzhou Ghosts and Gods Division, the Yunzhou Supervisory Division appears to be very small, and there are no people there. It does not look like a prominent yamen, but rather a private house, which is very mysterious and low-key.
Xiaodaotong Zizhu welcomed Chu Chen into the Yunzhou Supervisory Office, and took him to a courtyard not long after.
In the courtyard, a Taoist in a plain gossip Taoist robe played the piano, and the cranes danced in the courtyard. Maybe someone came. Layman Qingzhu stopped playing and said with a smile:
"Ling Xiao, what a supernatural power."
"Hehe~ It's a fluke."
Chu Chen communicated with Layman Qingzhu about Ai’s family affairs earlier, smiled at the moment, and cupped his hands to congratulate:
"Congratulations, sir, for being among the top three ranks."
From learning that Layman Qingzhu was elected as the elder of the Xianting Center and was promoted to Supervisor of Yunzhou, Chu Chen knew that Layman Qingzhu had also made a breakthrough in the past few years and successfully ranked among the top three great supernatural powers.
The state inspectors in Middle Earth or Greater Kyushu may be served by fourth-rank great supernatural powers, but in the frontier barren state county, the state supervisors generally have to be third-rank great supernatural powers.
As soon as we met, it was true.
Layman Qingzhu exudes pure and empty qi, which is natural and extremely mysterious.
"Sir, stepping into the upper third rank means stepping half a foot into the fairy gate. I'm afraid I will have to call you Master Qingzhu in the future."
"Don't listen to the nonsense of people in the mountains, I am not qualified to be called a real person."
Layman Qingzhu shook his head with a smile. Many people in the world of cultivating immortals abused the title of "real person", but those who practiced the third grade of Taoism were honored as "real people".
However, in the high level of Xianting, they are still quite particular, and there are very few third-rank monks who are not ashamed to call themselves real people.
"Although there is hope to become an immortal at the third grade of Taoism, it is becoming more and more difficult to prove the Tao and become an immortal now. Don't mention any real people. The senior Yulou real person was granted the honorary title by the Celestial Court of the Celestial Dynasty. Wouldn't it be ridiculous for us to proclaim ourselves?"
Chu Chen smiled, he naturally understands the truth, but it doesn't prevent him from being obedient.
Don't look at what Layman Qingzhu said casually, breaking through to the third rank is not easy. Han Chen's brother Chonglou Taoist had a similar level of Taoism before, but he failed to break through.
Suddenly opened a huge gap.
Breakthrough to the upper third rank, the immortal journey is further advanced, Layman Qingzhu is in a good mood, laughing and gossiping with Chu Chen.
After some chatting, the topic of the two quickly fell on the errand of the State Supervision Department.
"Ling Xiao, you used to be in charge of the County Supervision Department before, and supervised all the officials and ghosts in a county. You are very handy with the tasks of the supervisory envoy. I am very relieved that you are in charge of the southwestern area of Yunzhou."
Layman Qingzhu felt sincerely, he was very sure of Chu Chen's ability, but this time the incident with the Ai family in Yuqin Mountain still surprised him, and he had such amazing supernatural powers as soon as he broke through, which made him value Chu Chen even more.
After thinking for a while, Layman Qingzhu said:
"I don't need to explain anything else, you should pay more attention to Yuqin Mountain."
Chu Chen was stunned, Guan Taihe Taoist also told him to take a look and pay attention to Yuqin Mountain, which made him curious.
"Sir, did Xianting find anything in Yuqin Mountain?"
"The specific situation is not yet known."
Layman Qingzhu did not hide anything from Chu Chen, pondered for a while, and explained:
"Yuqin Mountain has suddenly descended for two or three years. There must be a reason behind it. All forces from the eight southwestern states have settled in Yuqin Mountain. There must be speculations in this regard, not only for the five elements, but also for the five elements. I want to find out the chance and fortune behind Yuqin Mountain."
Chu Chen nodded repeatedly when he heard the words.
He returned to Yuqin Mountain from Middle Earth and was quite surprised that the good fortune of Yuqin Mountain lasted so long.
Obviously, this phenomenon is abnormal, and there must be a reason behind it.
After some discussions, Chu Chen had dinner at the State Supervision Department before turning back to Yuqin Mountain.
As the guard of Yuqin Mountain, his residence is not in Yuqin County, but in the secret place of Xylophone.
The so-called xylophone secret realm is exactly the secret realm that Chu Chen accidentally discovered when he chased and killed the mysterious insect repairer.
Through the efforts of Celestial Court, this secret realm has been completely anchored and solidified, and it has become a permanent secret realm.
In the past two years, under the management of the Celestial Court, a city was formed at the entrance of the secret realm, named "Xylophone City".
On the one hand, it is to better develop and manage the secret realm, and on the other hand, it is to protect the secret realm.
Xylophone City is directly under the direct jurisdiction of Yunzhou. The city lord is at the same level as the county guard and the county governor.
However, Xianting is now paying more and more attention to Yuqin Mountain. After sending the deputy governor of the state to be the guardian of Yuqin Mountain, the guardian of Yuqin Mountain will become the real leader of Xylophone City in the future, ruling the whole city and deterring the mountains.
Coincidentally, Chu Chen, the lord of the xylophone city, is very familiar with him. It is Qi Xiuxin, the former governor of Wanquan County who worked together in Wanquan County back then.
In the xylophone city lord's mansion, Qi Xiuxin sighed when he saw Chu Chen.
In the blink of an eye, the former subordinate suddenly became his immediate boss. This is not the first time he has encountered this kind of encounter, so it is not surprising.
It's just that he is the protagonist who has surpassed the boss in the past and changed from a subordinate to an old boss' immediate boss.
However, Qi Xiu has a good skill in nourishing his heart and energy. He can control the distracting thoughts in his heart, put his mind right, and bow respectfully:
"I met Chu Zhenshou!"
Chu Chen smiled: "Fellow Daoist Qi, we haven't seen each other for two years, why are you so divided? What Chu guards, you and I should still be called friends of Daoist."
Qi Xiuxin smiled when he heard the words.
Chu Chen is very relieved of Qi's ability to cultivate his mind. He adheres to the principle of only supervising, but not intervening in local specific affairs.
After settled in Xylophone City, I chose a secluded three-entry courtyard as the mansion for sneak training, and planned to be a "guardian envoy" well.
After five days in a row, Chu Chen visited the secret place once, and spent the rest of the time behind closed doors, devoting himself to cultivation.
He was slightly injured in the fight with the Green Snake Witch King, and he had some insights, so he needed to retreat and practice in time.
After some practice, the injury healed, and the cultivation base of Taoism improved a little.
That is, in the past five days, Qingying helped him buy the supernatural snake demon shedding skin, and it cost 1.1 million yuan.
It was a gray-white snake slough, not very big, only three feet long, but it was indeed the slough of a big supernatural snake.
According to Qingying, the owner of the snake slough is good at [venomous] [change] supernatural powers, quite powerful.
After fighting with the Green Snake Witch King, Chu Chen realized the importance of the technique of [Resisting Disasters for Death].
With the help of the Temple of Heart, it doesn't take seventy-seven or forty-nine days, just three days of hard work, he has preliminarily mastered the great supernatural power of protecting the dead from disasters [Golden Cicada Escape Shell], and there is an extra green belt around his waist.
With this green belt, you can steal life and death, and prevent disasters for death.
Of course, the supernatural power [Golden Cicada Escape Shell] is not invincible.
In the face of the upper third grade of Taoism or a powerful catastrophe, the supernatural powers may not be effective.
"It can be regarded as an extra means of life-saving."
Chu Chen was quite satisfied in his heart. With this supernatural power, he had one more chance of winning the battle with the great supernatural power of the same level.
After playing with the green belt, Chu Chen hung it on his waist contentedly, and habitually took out the [State Deputy Metropolitan Order] [Yunzhou Left Deputy Supervision Order] from the bracelet Immortal Mansion, and reviewed the reports reported by his subordinates.
After some review, nothing important happened under the rule.
So, Chu Chen thought of something, took out the bronze token from the Bracelet Immortal Mansion, and started to refine the magical power [Ping Kai Xiandong], intending to update the Bracelet Immortal Mansion in his hand.
This bronze token is a rare treasure in space, and the fairy cave opened by it must be unique.
As the saying goes, the first time is raw and the second time is familiar.
Chu Chen practiced [Ping Kai Xiandong] not once or twice, but very skillfully.
He first marked a seal fairy mansion on the bronze token, and painted four fairy girls outside the cave gate, each holding a song and music, fairy tea, fairy fruit and fairy fruit, decorated with colorful flowers inside, and wrote the four characters "Penglai Fairy Cave". The stone sacrifice is under the Liujia altar, with the imperial character in the left hand, the sword formula in the right hand, and the "Kuigang" on the foot.
"The stone on the bank of the Qin River, the hero of the two qi, opens to form a hole, calls it to make a sound, fairies and fairies, fairy music and fairy sounds, fetches wine and wine, sets up a table and eats it, uses it to form an image, retreats and retracts its shape If you dare to leak, you are as urgent as a legal order. I will take the legal order of Mr. Sanshan Jiuhou!"
Chu Chen sat cross-legged, holding a bronze token in his hand, just like in the past when offering sacrifices to the [Ping Kai Xiandong].
When Cunxiang Immortal Mansion came to life, he skillfully pinched his fingers, and the bronze token flew into the air, and pointed with his sleeve.
However, the picture of the bronze token opening up the "Xianfu" in Chu Chen's imagination did not appear, but the ground under his feet trembled.
"Boom!"
The earth trembled and the mountains shook, as if the earth dragon came back to life, and the whole xylophone city trembled.
Xylophone city lord Qi Xiuxin immediately flew into the sky to spy on the movement around him. At the same time, the Celestial Courts in the city took action one after another to search for abnormalities.
"What happened?"
"Report to the city lord, the Xylophone Secret Realm is unstable!"
"Hurry up, activate the formation to stabilize the secret realm!"
"yes!"
For a while, there was chaos in Xylophone City.
"What's going on here?"
Cultivating the small courtyard, Chu Chen asked Qi Xiuxin through voice transmission with his spiritual sense, and was surprised when he learned what was going on outside.
Obviously, he is the "culprit" of the mutation in Xylophone City.
"Brother, what happened, my dream was interrupted again, the original master was about to kneel down for me."
The little ghost broke in from outside the house, muttering non-stop, but it stopped abruptly, with a shocked face, pointing at Chu Chen:
"Brother, what is that?"
Chu Chen didn't need the little ghost to remind him, he had already discovered it with his strong spiritual sense.
The bronze token in his hand had an astonishing mutation, and a group of void cracks twisted like lightning appeared above the token.
Without much hesitation.
Explore the divine sense.
Soon, Chu Chen's face became extremely exciting.
In the space crack, it is not the huge fairy mansion in his imagination, the top storage space for everything, but a hole, a small cave with a radius of two feet, which is very narrow.
Compared with the small "fairy cave" opened with ordinary stone when Chu Chen first entered the Tao, it is not as good.
However, what surprised Chu Chen was that the Xiaoxian Cave was full of spiritual qi, and it was a rare and blessed place for practice. He had a vague sense of familiarity.
It seems, a bit like the secret cave in Diyuan Dongtian in Qingzhou back then.
"How is this going?"
Chu Chen was surprised. Without further ado, he picked up the dream stone and contacted Qingying.
[I used a bronze token to open up a fairy cave. During the sacrificial process, the secret realm of the xylophone was hit, and then a small secret cave with a radius of two feet was opened. The cave was full of spiritual energy, which was very mysterious. Yinger, what is going on? What's going on? 】
