Chapter 166 Ao Jin: He is so powerful, but he comes to humiliate me again?

The ninth day of August.

It is suitable to start earthwork.

This was also the auspicious day selected by the imperial court to start construction of the four fairy cities.

Before daybreak, all the major bookstores had already prepared for battle, quietly waiting for battle reports to be distributed by the Ministry of Households, ready to print at any time.

To be honest, you can't make much money from this kind of battle report.

But the quantity is too large.

It was the first time for the people of Kyoto to see such a new publication, and it was also the first time they felt like they were participating in national affairs.

All over the world.

Only our Lord Jing can enjoy this treatment.

The battle report doesn't cost much, so buy it!

of course.

Not everyone can only read the battle reports.

Some people with rich family background even bought puppets from the Princess's Mansion and rushed to the Immortal City to watch in real time.

Even the most basic style of puppet had the strength of the fifth rank, fully satisfying their needs as war correspondents.

some of.

Naturally including Ao Jin.

Now, all the evil officials in the Honglu Temple have been sent to the Immortal City to manage the evil officials.

She arrived at the Honglu Temple early in the morning and walked into Qin Muye's office openly.

The room was empty.

She had expected this because Qin Muye was a lazy guy and was usually the last one to arrive.

The only function of this Honglu Temple Minister is to ensure that the Honglu Temple has a Honglu Temple Minister.

Ao Jin was not polite at all and sat directly in Qin Muye's seat.

While waiting for him.

While flipping through the books on the table boredly.

then……

She turned to a book of hand-drawn erotic pictures.

"What a filthy bastard!"

Ao Jin cursed but did not throw the album away.

Because... the painting is really beautiful.

The painter obviously had extremely high artistic attainments. The originally obscene picture, under his brushstrokes, looked like a beautiful work of art.

At first glance, the content of the painting seems to be just a physical entanglement, but a closer look reveals that it is a fusion of spirit and desire.

The painting style seems familiar, I have seen it before in Relics of the Gods.

"You are quite capable!"

Ao Jin has a sense of aesthetics. It is the nature of the dragon race to like all things that are "beautiful".

She turned slowly.

I actually looked into it.

It seems that there is a story behind every painting.

Because she can see the emotions of the characters.

Ah……

This human boy has quite a bit of experience.

She flipped through the pages with great interest until she saw a picture of a man and an animal.

As for what kind of beast it is, it looks like a dragon?

"Bastard!"

She couldn't hold it in any longer, cursed, and tore the album to pieces.

Just in time.

"Squeak!"

The door opened.

Then Qin Muye rushed over in anger: "Are you sick, little female dragon? Why are you tearing up my work? Who allowed you to enter my room?"

Ao Jin glared at him: "Obscene!"

The lady was angry.

There were still two blushes on her cheeks that were about to fade.

Looks noble and dissolute.

Qin Muye was not convinced at the time: "Are you the one who is vulgar or am I the one who is vulgar?"

Ao Jin put his legs together and snorted coldly: "You draw people and dragons on the painting, and you still say you are not vulgar?"

"Uh……"

Qin Muye was embarrassed for a moment, and his brows knitted together: "The dragon above is not you, why are you so excited? I am not interested in other people's toys!"

Ao Jin was hit in the sore spot again and couldn't help but yelled angrily: "Asshole! I didn't even..."

Half the story.

Stopped abruptly.

Qin Muye was curious: "What are you talking about?"

Ao Jin looked at him deeply, and soon calmed down: "Why should I explain my affairs to you?"

Qin Muye curled his lips and said, "As if I am happy to ask. Since we are officials in the same dynasty, I won't bother with you about tearing up the painting. Go away now. From now on, you are not allowed to enter my room without my permission."

talking.

He was about to pull out Ao Jin's chair and send the guest away.

However, I didn't expect that it would not move after several attempts.

He couldn't help but be secretly shocked. It seemed that the little female dragon's skills were too superb. She used so much strength but didn't damage the chair at all.

Such exquisite control of strength definitely belongs to an expert among experts.

Fortunately, when the Relics of the Gods encountered her, she was already seriously injured, otherwise he would have been beaten.

Ao Jin smiled and looked at him mockingly: "Why? Today, the construction of the Immortal City begins, and Lord Qin doesn't dare to face me?"

Qin Muye curled his lips: "You came here just to humiliate me?"

Ao Jin snorted coldly: "So what?"

"Okay, okay!"

Qin Muye was too lazy to pay attention to her.

He was patient with pretty women, but only with his own pretty women.

As for other people’s wives, it’s okay to say “thank you” occasionally, but just be patient.

He didn't chase Ao Jin away and just lay down on the recliner and took a nap.

I have a little succubus at home. He often has trouble sleeping, so he’s used to catching up on sleep at work.

Seeing him act like this.

Ao Jin couldn't help but sneered: "You can pretend to be calm, your puppets have already arrived at the fairy city, and you should have discovered that the demon officials in your two cities are very weak, and I'm afraid they can't even build roads on the ground.

I want to see, if the transportation is not good, when can you start the construction of your two fairy cities. "

Qin Muye was a little surprised: "You also know how to build a city?"

Ao Jin smiled proudly: "Is it difficult?"

In fact, she had no interest in building a city.

Just to strike Qin Muye hard today, she has been collecting books on city building recently.

The more she looked at it, the more she felt confident of success, because if she wanted to build a city in this kind of terrain, the most important thing was to open up transportation so that all kinds of building materials could be transported in.

This is also one of the links that most requires evil officials and clerks.

She really couldn't understand how Qin Muye could win.

"Tsk! It's still installed."

Qin Muye curled his lips and continued to catch up on his sleep.

Ao Jin's eyes became more and more contemptuous: "The more you pretend to be indifferent, the more guilty you seem. Where is your arrogance that day? Are you afraid that I will humiliate you, so you bury your head in the ground?"

Qin Muye was fed up with listening to this.

He simply took out two soundproofing sheets and put them on his ears.

Trash talk seems to lower one's appearance.

It makes this noble young woman look unsexy.

Ao Jin: “…”

What a tough guy.

it is good!
I want to see how long you can hold on.

Ao Jin looked down at him, then closed his eyes and immersed himself in the bodies of the four puppets at the same time.

These four puppets are worth a lot of money.

She had just arrived and did not have any human money on her.

He was able to afford it only by abusing his power and taking some from the Great Sage Temple.

She got angry when she thought that Qin Muye would put the money in his pocket.

But when she thought about it, she could humiliate him the first time after buying it, so she felt that the money was worth it.

If we want to build mountain roads, relying solely on humans, the efficiency will not be improved at all.

However, if we rely on the demon officials, the control of magic will be very demanding, otherwise the soil of the mountain will be excessively eroded, and not only will the road not be repaired, it may even easily cause the mountain to collapse.

Only those evil officials who do an excellent job at the grassroots level can complete the task with high quality and efficiency.

But she had used her power to transfer all these evil officials to Li Zhixuan's side.

Ao Jin has already thought it through.

Qin Muye will have to kneel down and beg him later.

Only then will I consider giving him some.

Only if he lowers his attitude will I consider talking to him about the Ten Thousand Demons Golden Pill.

She just couldn't understand how those human workers swinging pickaxes could compare with the evil officials.

then……

From the puppet's perspective, she saw a huge iron lump more than ten feet high making a noise.

It actually went straight into the mountain.

Ao Jin: “???”

She quickly removed the sound insulation from Qin Muye's ears, and her voice became sharper: "What on earth is that big iron lump that drilled into the mountain?"

Qin Muye rubbed his sleepy eyes and said, "Shield machine, what's wrong?"

Ao Jin: “…”

Shield chicken?
What kind of chicken is shield chicken?

Why have I never heard of it?
Such a big thing placed here is equivalent to a pangolin at the level of a great demon.

But the problem is... Pangolin is a monster with lowly bloodline, and has never reached the level of a great monster!
broken!

This bastard had no intention of building a mountain road, but wanted to dig a tunnel directly.

This lump of iron driven by the spirit stone is like a tireless pile-driving beast!

No!

We have to quickly give birth to a pangolin at the level of a great demon, otherwise the demon official’s advantages will be gone.

Her face was tense and she walked out the door quickly.

"cut!"

Qin Muye sneered.

My hometown is full of infrastructure crazy people. Do you want to compete with me in infrastructure construction?
Although tunnel boring machines involve a lot of advanced technology, which Qin Muye does not understand, he can make up for a considerable part of it with formations.

With the blessing of the fate skill [Craftsmanship], the result has become quite decent.

Of course, many things are not done very well.

Especially accuracy.

But what if this shield machine has the perception of a high-level grandmaster and the fate skill of [Tracing]?
Plus a group of helpers, that’s enough!
Qin Muye closed his eyes and immersed himself in the shield machine (Xianwu version) again.

Drill hard!
I have to drill even if it makes my head hurt!

……

After the battle report of the oversized drilling equipment appeared.

The areas around the bookstores became bustling with activity.

There is no shortage of people who understand construction in the community. Although digging tunnels does not represent everything, as long as tunnels can be dug, the difficulty in all aspects can be greatly reduced.

There are many precedents for digging tunnels, but this is usually a choice made only when absolutely necessary. The existing tunnels in Daqian are relatively short.

But judging from what Taoist Kongxu said, it seems that he wants to drive through tunnels all the way and drive hundreds of miles!

Yongqing Palace.

Li Hong laughed heartily: "Kaijiang, Lao Shen, are you convinced?"

Qin Kaijiang: “…”

Shen Qi: “…”

They had traveled all over the country since they were young and considered themselves knowledgeable, but this was the first time they had seen such a simple, crude and bold method of road construction.

Honestly.

A little confused.

Qin Kaijiang's temples felt swollen and he felt the situation was becoming more and more difficult.

If he didn't want things to get too ugly, he would even want to personally help Li Zhixuan.

For a superior war god like him, piercing a mountain with one sword is not a difficult task.

Although there will definitely be many problems, at least the tunnel can be built.

only……

This situation is really not suitable for me to take action.

Shen Kui wiped the sweat from his forehead, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.

He not only saw the big iron lump that drilled into the mountain, but also saw various strange small iron lumps.

The highlight is its practicality. In this way, the laborers, craftsmen and officials only need to do some details that machines cannot do.

After so many years in politics, he knows very well the significance of these machines.

He couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty is blessed to have such a great craftsman!"

Li Hong stroked his beard and smiled without saying a word.

In fact, he was also surprised.

When he first allocated funds to Taoist Master Kongxu, it was only for that small combat flying boat.

The initial results were rapid, and soon reached a level sufficient for actual combat, the only difference being that the lethality was not as great.

But later, Taoist Kongxu tried many ways to improve the situation but failed.

Later, it was Li Xingluo who persuaded him that instead of fighting to the death on the combat flying boat, it would be better to try some machinery that would be useful to the country.

Then from that day on, Taoist Kongxu seemed to have his Ren and Du meridians opened up, and one after another strange-looking but extremely practical machines were born.

Others didn't know, but Emperor Li Hong knew.

He didn't send anyone to contact Taoist Kongxu privately before, on the one hand because he felt that this person could only be used by Daqian.

on the other hand.

This man is like a strange-shaped weapon, and can only play the greatest role in Li Xingluo's hands.

And Li Xingluo.

He understands the country.

Otherwise, he would not have suppressed his fear of the bloodline of the God's Messenger and given Li Xingluo a chance.

Li Hong glanced at Qin Kaijiang: "Kaijiang! After seeing this scene, do you still have prejudice against Xingluo?"

Qin Kaijiang: “…”

He was a little dazed.

Because he really didn't expect that a puppet master could become so amazing under Li Xingluo's training.

A person can act flawlessly for a while.

But the subconscious mind is difficult to change.

Just like Qin Yanying, when he got a piece of good metal, he must have thought of forging a good weapon to kill people, not forging it into a weapon to defend the city.

The fact that Taoist Master Kongxu became like this under Li Xingluo's hands can only mean one thing.

That is, Li Xingluo has always had the country in his heart!

Although stuck in the quagmire.

But still have lofty pursuits.

She is definitely more qualified than Li Zhixuan for the position of crown prince.

Unfortunately……

She has the blood of a divine messenger!
This alone is enough to wipe out all her advantages.

Qin Kaijiang's face darkened slightly: "Your Majesty! It would be better if you were in direct control of such a great talent."

The smile on Li Hong's face gradually disappeared, and he put the half-drunk tea on the table: "I'm tired, you guys go down!"

Qin Kaijiang's expression tightened.

Just as he was about to say something, Li Hong had already turned away.

Shen Kui was a little puzzled: "Old Qin, don't spoil the fun at this time, okay?"

Qin Kaijiang looked a little unhappy, and stood up with a sullen face: "I will pay attention next time, and go back to Annan first!"

After saying that, his figure disappeared from the spot.

Shen Kui seemed to be thinking about something, and finally shook his head, bowed in the direction where Li Hong left, and strode away.

apse.

Eunuch Hong supported Li Hong and walked towards the bed.

Li Hong suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice: "You, get out!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"

"go out!"

"promise!"

Eunuch Hong looked worried. He had served Li Hong personally for many years and knew the emperor very well.

He clearly felt that Li Hong's current mental state was very abnormal.

But since Li Hong had made his request, he could only grit his teeth and leave the back hall.

Li Hong's face was extremely gloomy.

He strode towards the desk.

The desk in the front hall was where he reviewed memorials.

Only he himself knew what the desk in the back hall was used for.

His eyes flashed and he wrote quickly at his desk.

The more he wrote, the more ferocious his expression became.

At the end of writing, the pen tip was so heavy that it scratched the paper.

"boom!"

The last time I put pen to paper, the pen broke into pieces.

He suddenly stopped and laughed crazily towards the sky.

Subsequently.

"puff!"

He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Eunuch Hong was almost numb, and he was worried, so he kept listening to the noise outside.

When he heard the strange laugh, he felt that something was going to happen, but he didn't expect... that things would be so serious.

He panicked, and his voice was extremely shrill: "Imperial Physician! Call the Imperial Physician!"

Now he is completely confused.

I have no idea why Li Hong suddenly lost his composure.

Then he saw the papers on the desk.

I saw the names and symbols above.

Qin Kaijiang, Qin Muye, and a sword in the middle.

Qin Kaijiang, Li Xingluo, and there is also a sword in the middle.

The Great Sage Temple, Ao Jin, and a sword in the middle!

Ao Jin is connected to the Ten Thousand Demons Golden Pill and Qin Muye, with the words "Honglu Longwei" written behind him.

Pu Minglong is connected to Li Runyue and Qin Kaijiang.

At last!
Accompanied by a name with an extremely ferocious writing style.

Mu Jianqiu!
Eunuch Hong: “…”

……

The days passed by.

Kyoto and the four immortal cities were as bustling as ever, as if the entire Daqian revolved around this matter.

Fairyland of Lingnan.

Ao Jin's puppet looked at the pangolin that had just broken through the great demon realm and was desperately drilling into the mountain, and finally he felt relieved.

She waved to Zheng Wang.

Zheng Wang ran over happily: "Eight Temple Priests, please give me your orders."

Ao Jin asked: "What is the progress of Northwest Fairy City now?"

Four fairy cities, two difficult and two easy.

The difficult parts are Lingnan and Northwest. The former is in the hands of Li Zhixuan, while the latter is under the jurisdiction of Li Xingluo.

Zheng Wang quickly replied, "They are a few days ahead of us, but their demon officers are just idling away their time. We are faster, so we will definitely be a few days ahead of them."

"Very good!"

Ao Jin nodded slightly, thinking it was worth it for him to mobilize the accumulated incense of the Great Sage Temple.

He also used the secret method of the dragon clan to forcibly transform a pangolin of the fourth grade or less into a great monster.

She said in a deep voice: "Give orders to prioritize road construction. Once the road is built to a level suitable for building a city, we can then devote our energy to reclaiming wasteland."

"Yes!"

Zheng Wang nodded.

Then, the puppet became dull.

He couldn't help but look at the puppet again, and roughly understood where this pangolin demon came from.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that the dragon clan is indeed courageous.

As a senior undercover agent of the Great Sage Temple, he could basically guess that this eighth temple priest did not get along with the other temple priests.

He was also well aware that those temple priests valued offerings more than their own lives.

Ao Jin must have shown a lot of strength to be able to snatch the incense from them.

It's a fierce dragon.

Keep working!

This time, we must sneak into the Xianliang Temple.

……

Another month has passed.

The two tunnels were dug successively to the reserved site of the fairy city. As for the other half of the tunnel, there was no need to rush. After all, the construction materials could be transported there. They could build the city first and then dig slowly.

The pangolin demon has been suffering from headaches and dizziness recently, so he needs to be given a break.

Although less than 10% of the total project has been completed, the framework will be established once the main road is opened.

All the supporting engineering and farmland projects can be built around the tunnel and can be basically completed within a year.

In this way, the advantages of the evil official were once again brought into play.

On this side of the city, Gongshu Songting also began to make his move.

Ao Jin's puppet stood on the watchtower, overlooking the division of the urban area, and felt more and more that the human race was extremely intelligent. At least Taoist Kongxu and Gongshu Songting were both masters worthy of admiration.

Unfortunately……

The outcome is decided!

The magical machines used by Taoist Master Kongxu for construction can be said to be quite cruel.

In addition, the "concrete" used for pouring can even surpass Gongshu Songting in urban construction. He almost built an entire city single-handedly, which made the old man dazed all day long and drank to drown his sorrows.

But in terms of land reclamation, it is still slightly inferior.

The Immortal City is a hub that was forcibly opened up within the country of Qian. It is not close to the prosperous city, so it must have sufficient agricultural supplies. If you want to turn the wasteland into fertile land, it is basically impossible to achieve without the demon official.

In fact, the progress in this regard at the Princess's Mansion is indeed extremely slow.

Unless they can poach a large number of evil officials from their side, they have no chance of winning.

Just when Ao Jin felt he had won.

"Eight Temple Blessings! Something bad has happened!"

Zheng Wang hurriedly climbed up the watchtower, his face full of anxiety.

Ao Jin suddenly felt something was wrong: "What's wrong?"

Zheng Wang scratched his numb scalp: "The Princess's Mansion just released a message saying... Taoist Master Kongxu will not enter the Xianliang Temple!"

Ao Jin was shocked: "What!?!?!?"

An extremely bad feeling emerged from the bottom of my heart.

There is no clear division of incense offerings in the Xianliang Temple, but the Ministry of Households will count the contributions of all participants and tell the residents who move in later.

Even every piece of cultivated land will be marked with the name of the developer.

It can be said that whoever has made greater contributions will receive more incense offerings.

With Taoist Kongxu's contribution, it would not be an exaggeration for him to take half of the incense offerings in those two cities.

As a result, he did not enter the Temple of Virtuous and Good People, and the empty incense offerings...

How could this person bear to do that?
She asked in a deep voice: "Then the evil officials under our command..."

Zheng Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "They have already started making a fuss, saying that the evil officials in the northwest are all useless. But after joining the Emperor's Mansion, they have received as much worship as them. They are already feeling unbalanced."

Ao Jin said in a cold voice: "We must suppress them!"

Zheng Wang smiled bitterly: "It's impossible to suppress it... Many capable officials have already quit their jobs and headed northwest!"

Ao Jin: “???”

……

Inside the Honglu Temple.

call……

Suck……

call……

Suck……

Ao Jin took several deep breaths, but still couldn't calm down.

She knew that nothing could be stopped.

Those demon officials obeyed the orders of the Great Saint Temple only because they were in awe of the Great Demon, and the Great Saint Temple also represented their interests.

But that doesn't mean they will obey the orders of the Great Sage Temple blindly.

Because in name, they are the evil officials of Qian Kingdom, and everything that the Great Sage Temple can give them, the imperial court can also give them.

As long as they can make up their minds to leave the Great Sage Temple, the Great Sage Temple will have no way to do anything to them.

Who is loyal to?
It's nothing more than weighing the pros and cons.

Taoist Master Kongxu will not enter the Temple of Virtuous People.

Such an incident completely shattered the scale in their hearts.

For those demon officials with strong magic and sufficient experience, they will definitely gain greater benefits by following the Princess's Mansion.

Although the utilization of incense by the Xianliang Temple is far inferior to that of the Great Sage Temple, those low-level evil officials are already suffering from oppression. How many of them can often go to the Great Sage Temple to practice?
Can't stop it!
There's no way to stop it!
After losing a group of powerful demon officials, the last weakness of the Princess Palace was gone.

It is still unclear who will win or lose in the end because there is still a long time to go.

But myself...

Obviously, there is no way to threaten Qin Muye anymore.

The foundation and think tank of the Princess's Mansion are so powerful that it is terrifying.

Especially that Taoist priest Kongxu, who is so powerful, how could he be willing not to enter the Xianliang Temple?

How much benefit did Li Xingluo give him?
Anyway...

No chance!
I had originally thought of giving Qin Muye a chance to beg me when he was in despair.

Don’t think about it now!
I have something on him.

He also has his own handle.

What I want is a physical object that I treasure immensely.

All he wanted was to keep his secret to himself.

No advantage at all.

At this moment.

"Squeak..."

The door opened.

Ao Jin raised his head and saw the bastard walking in with a smile on his face.

Qin Muye pressed the table and asked condescendingly: "Little female dragon, can you talk to me properly now?"

Ao Jin: “…”

came back!
That feeling of humiliation is back again!

He obviously hasn't done anything excessive yet.

It seemed as if she had been humiliated by him countless times.
