Chapter 1047
Chapter 1047
After hearing Xu Shan's meaningful words, Xu Shijie and the others were stunned and their hearts skipped a beat.
Is the weather dry?
Murder and arson?
Is this a plan to take advantage of the wind direction and burn down the entire Valley of Beasts?
‘Gulu. ’
Thinking of this, the local officials, led by Xu Shijie, looked at each other for a moment, and then couldn't help but swallow hard.
Wang Qinian, who was standing nearby, quickly stepped forward and asked, "Sir, are you preparing for a fire attack?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Shan nodded with a smile.
After confirming that the other party had this idea, Xu Shijie cautiously stepped forward and said, "Sir, burning down the Valley of a Hundred Beasts might offend the natural order!"
"It might even attract..."
“Heaven is angry and people are resentful!”
"It has damaged the reputation of adults."
"Haha."
Upon hearing this, Xu Shan immediately burst into laughter.
Not only him, but Wang Qinian and others who had been by their parents' side for a long time couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Li Yuanfang, known for his ruthlessness, snorted coldly.
Is it against the natural order and morality?
If my family truly valued harmony, how could there be any "falling from grace" or "becoming a demon"?
How could it possibly involve slaying the heavens and slaughtering Buddhas?
"Lord Xu, it's better to offend Heaven than to offend 'Minghe'!"
"Compared to the wrath of heaven and the resentment of the people, what I care about more is the lives of my own brothers."
"As for [reputation]..."
"Even dogs don't want it... but I do. Dogs don't want it, but this imperial envoy does."
"Ok?"
"what?"
Xu Shan's sudden reversal also startled the officials present, as well as his entourage Wang Qinian and Li Yuanfang.
"Prefect Xu, I've heard you're quite accomplished in literature. Would you mind helping me draft an article?"
"It is said that the Valley of a Hundred Beasts committed all kinds of evil deeds, which aroused the wrath of heaven and the resentment of the people. Therefore, heavenly fire entered the valley, causing the entire thicket to be burned."
"Ah? My lord, I've written it, but will anyone believe it?"
“My master said that the sky in Shu County is black, so it must be black; my master said that it was caused by heavenly fire, so it must be caused by heavenly fire.”
Before Xu Shan could even speak, Li Yuanfang, with a cold expression, immediately replied.
Facing this formidable figure, Xu Shijie and his group felt somewhat apprehensive.
When I accompanied him in defending the city, I witnessed his ferocity firsthand.
They're really reckless.
On the contrary, Wang Qinian stepped forward with a pleasant expression and explained, "Prefect Xu, just write it down. The rest will naturally be handled by the Embroidered Uniform Guard."
"Yes. Then this humble official will respectfully comply!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Shan clasped his hands in thanks.
"My lord, the naval forces of the two lakes have brought with them the [Fire Dragon Emerging from the Water] and the [Poison Smoke Ball] when they entered Sichuan this time."
"Sir, should we lead our men and let them plunder the place?"
"With these two powerful weapons embedded within, we can ensure that not a single blade of grass will grow in the entire Valley of Beasts!"
‘Gulu. ’
Upon hearing this, Xu Shijie and the others widened their eyes and swallowed hard.
This is going to wipe out the entire Beast Valley!
As is well known, the reason why Hundred Beasts Valley was able to stand out in southern Sichuan was due to its advantageous jungle terrain and its ability to control beasts.
But now?
Fire attacks and poison smoke bombs were used...
After this battle, everything was burned to the ground.
At that time, let alone being driven away by wild animals, even humans might not survive.
"Wonderful!"
"Qinian's words resonate deeply with me!"
"Hurry up and get ready!"
"Let's choose an auspicious day and invite 'heavenly fire into Sichuan'."
"Yes."
What kind of 'auspicious day' is this?
Why would someone with no descendants need to consult the almanac?
Where's Old Chen?
"I am the mighty War God of the Great Ming Dynasty, the Imperial Envoy appointed by His Majesty, the Chief of the Divine Secretariat whom Master Yuan shamelessly begged to pass the throne to, and the Earl of the Great Ming Dynasty..."
"He came all this way in person, and he didn't even come out to greet me?"
Holy crap, I got spit in the face by an adult again.
Second Uncle, is this what you're afraid of that you're not coming out?
Zhang Liansong, standing to the side, thought to himself.
Upon hearing this, Wang Qinian, knowing that his master was once again targeting the Heavenly Dao Sect's Demon Suppression Envoy, quickly reported, "My lord, Celestial Master Chen is at the Moon Gazing Tower."
"He's having a heart-to-heart talk and a sexual encounter with the courtesan."
"Damn. Did he pay?"
"No."
"If he didn't pay, then he's just getting something for free. How can we, the forces of justice, tolerate such behavior?"
"Right, Dog Egg?"
Faced with his master's question, Zhang Liansong awkwardly laughed and said, "My lord, what do you want to get from my second martial uncle? Please name your name..."
"I will go and mediate."
"Take the road."
"For the Heavenly Dao Sect's [Wind Qi Incantation], I must ensure that the wind direction on that day is blowing south."
"Understood. This time, my second master uncle either has to use his true soul power to draw the talisman or pay money, otherwise... even if my grandmaster uncle comes, it won't work."
"Sir, isn't that the truth?"
Hearing this, Wang Qinian laughed and joked, "Hmm? Gou Dan, not bad. You've grown up again, even learned to put righteousness before family."
"Brother Qinian, I really want to improve."
"Haha."
Just as Wang Qinian and his men were mobilizing all their forces to collect kerosene and other flammable materials on a large scale...
Several warhorses, carrying a few scouts, entered the city through the four gates of Chengdu.
"Make way, everyone make way."
"Wanzhou, urgent dispatch from 800 li away."
"All of you, get out of here."
"Jiangzhou, urgent dispatch from 800 li away."
"Clear the way, clear the way."
"Kuimen, urgent dispatch from 800 li away."
……
Far from the center of trouble, Chengdu is bustling with activity and teeming with life.
Their sudden appearance and their rush towards the Shu King's Mansion sparked much discussion among the people.
"Wanzhou, Jiangzhou, Kuimen?"
"What happened?"
"It is said that Xu Shan, the imperial envoy, was stirring up trouble there."
"Therefore, the Princess of Shu dispatched the Wudang Flying Army to enter eastern Shu to stabilize the situation."
"I don't know if it has anything to do with these things."
As the crowd was buzzing with discussion, four warhorses stopped one after the other in front of the Shu King's Palace.
The scouts, dismounting from their horses, rushed forward to report something without delay.
Inside the Shu King's Palace, the atmosphere remained one of peace and prosperity!
He Zhishan's daughter miscarried, and the King of Shu only symbolically grieved for a few days before returning to his decadent lifestyle.
Regarding his performance...
Princess Shi Qing of Shu, who had firmly controlled the Shu Prince's mansion by using the Gu Pill, was very satisfied!
Today, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her the 'Wu Zetian' of Shu County.
After so many years of management, he now holds both military and political power in the area.
Especially this time, taking advantage of the opportunity of He Zhishan and Xu Shan's 'collusion,' they persuaded the King of Shu to forcibly summon him back to the capital of Shu...
Now they wield immense power!
However, the troubles caused by Xu Shan and his group in eastern Sichuan kept him on his mind.
Especially in the Ghost City, the great shaman Shi Le perished, and the general Li Cheng, whom he had painstakingly helped to rise to power, and his subordinates were slaughtered.
In addition, Jiangzhou fell...
This made Shi Qing realize that if he didn't take drastic measures, Shu County would be in grave danger!
That's why she ordered Huang Ruyan to bring out Hong Qiweng and had Guo Yijing lead the Wudang Flying Army to Wanzhou to plot against Xu Shan.
Judging by the timeline, we should have a result by now!
