I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 912 Intention

As the imperial decree declaring war spread throughout the Wen Dynasty, the atmosphere in the Wen Dynasty suddenly became much more tense.

Many poets and children of aristocratic families began to return, cities everywhere started to actively stockpile supplies, and even the local imperial examinations were brought forward.

The Song Ci Sect was also busy at this moment.

"Reporting to the Sect Master and the Great Elder, the sect has currently gathered 7,655 disciples, including 5,468 at the Scholar level and above, including 711 disciples from various poetry sects and aristocratic families. Currently, none of them have left."

"The Qianji Institute currently produces 2,000 crossbows a day, and 500 other telekinetic weapons."

Song Mu sat in the main hall, listening to the report from the elder next to him, and nodded immediately.

"According to the plan, scholars at the scholar level and above will be sent to various armies in seven days. Qianji Academy will release casting techniques and teach the craftsmen of the imperial court and the Poetry Sect to learn."

"Another special order will be issued to all disciples of the poetry sects and aristocratic families. If they are the only sons of their bloodline, they can be allowed to return home."

Song Mu said in a deep voice, and the elder left to make arrangements, while Yan Fu next to him had already come to watch.

"Master, this time all the sect's strengths are revealed."

As he spoke, Yan Fu looked at the person next to him.

This person was none other than Tao Changqing, whom Song Mu had met once in southern Xinjiang. As a Grand Secretary, he was now sitting in the hall. Although he pretended to be shocked, he still had a thoughtful look on his face.

A few days ago, Tao Changqing received a secret order from the sect, saying that the sect master had recovered from his injuries and asked Tao Changqing to go to the Song Ci Sect as soon as possible to teach him the art of the Heavenly Star Formation.

Tao Changqing, who had been on the front line in southern Xinjiang, was completely confused. Although he knew that because of the imperial decree, the East China Sea monsters had suddenly gone crazy and started attacking the coast in recent days, and southern Xinjiang was already in danger, he had to abandon the city and retreat to avoid the sharp edge temporarily.

Moreover, news came from all over that many places along the coast of East Xinjiang were hit by the tide of monsters and beasts. It was only slightly stronger than South Xinjiang. Although there were some losses, it managed to temporarily block the offensive of the monsters and beasts.

The border was in need of manpower at this very moment, but he was arranged by the sect to come to the Song Clan's Poetry Sect and be taught the sect's secret techniques.

Although he knew that this must be the result of cooperation between Song Mu and the sect, Tao Changqing did not think that such a secret method could be easily learned.

"Old Yan, I know you have some concerns, but I think about the last battle in the East China Sea. What happened to the human race? Old Yan, you also have some opinions, right?"

What Song Mu was talking about was the great war that the Wen Dynasty was fighting in the East Frontier at the same time as he went to the deep East China Sea.

The scale of this battle was quite large, with a large number of soldiers and armor deployed. The only difference was that the Song Dynasty's poets fully participated in the battle and, in a rare move, sent young scholars to join the war.

The human race suffered heavy casualties in the first battle, but the East China Sea demon clan also suffered heavy losses. However, due to the emergence of the mechanical crossbow, a weapon that allowed ordinary people to kill demon generals, the Wen Dynasty achieved great results in the battle.

The people of East Xinjiang have long coveted the sea under the maritime strategy of the Wen Dynasty. Although the maritime strategy of the past few decades has brought them sweetness, they have always been troubled by the lack of emergency plans.

The emergence of this mortal weapon undoubtedly provides a great help to ordinary people.

The battle in the East China Sea was not only a test of the East China Sea by the Wen Dynasty, but also a test of the performance of this weapon.

More importantly, it has left confidence in the hearts of the people living along the coast.

Also, because Song Ci Zong had no reservations about the crossbow manufacturing and energy storage technology, within a few months, the number of crossbows installed in Dongjiang increased sharply, which also enabled the people to fight back against the beast tide in the East China Sea.

"Master, maybe I am really old, but with all the great monsters in the world gathered together, how can a mortal fight with all his might?"

"I just feel that the time is not right now. This battle will definitely cause great damage to the Ci Master."

What Yan Fu said did not make sense. A sect had grown to this point, but it was about to be used by Song Mu in this way. For someone like him who had poured a lot of feelings into it, it was naturally hard for him to let it go.

Song Mu could only stand up and bow for a moment, while Tao Changqing next to him spoke.

"Master Song, how long do I have to wait here?"

Tao Changqing interrupted the two great scholars without any hesitation, and Song Mu also bowed and said.

"Elder Tao, please wait a moment. I think they should have arrived by now."

As he was speaking, a disciple came to report that a group of scholars had returned to report to Song Mu. "Please come to the palace."

As Song Mu was speaking, Yan Fu and Tao Changqing also looked outside the hall, and saw a Hanlin in linen clothes leading a dozen Jinshi and Juren towards the hall, all of them looking energetic.

Song Mu immediately stood up and said with a smile.

"How is it, have you found the place where the sky is falling this time?"

The person who came was Lin Qi. When he saw Song Mu asking him in the hall, he stopped and bowed respectfully to Song Mu.

"Thank you for your help. Although we have gone through many hardships this time, fortunately, it seems that there are many changes in the demon place. We are lucky enough to bring back many tribesmen, which will comfort our ancestors."

Song Mu hurriedly stepped forward to help Lin Qi up and immediately led him into the hall.

Tao Changqing looked at the person in front of him with a puzzled look on his face. Although Yan Fu next to him knew something about the situation, he was also a little curious at this moment.

"Master Song, this is..."

"You two should get to know each other, Lin Qi, this is the elder of the Tao family's poetry sect, Tao Changqing, at the level of Grand Scholar."

"Elder Tao, this is my disciple, Lin Qi."

"One of their clans is good at using the power of the stars."

When Song Mu said this, Tao Changqing's expression immediately changed, and he suddenly understood Song Mu's intention.

"This time, Elder Tao, please teach me everything you know."

Tao Changqing stepped forward, looked at Lin Qi, and then spoke.

"I wonder to what extent you have used the power of the stars?"

Lin Qi and Song Mu looked at each other, and immediately power surged in their hands. A piece of the Heavenly Star fragment fell out of the necklace around their necks. The power of the Heavenly Star immediately circulated around their bodies, and the Wen Star also suddenly began to flicker.

Tao Changqing took a deep breath and looked at the several scholars who had followed in.

Several people also performed the same action, each holding a tiny piece of star fragment in their hands, which were now emitting unique rhythms under their control.

"Wonderful!"

Tao Changqing suddenly exclaimed in praise, and then looked at Song Mu, his face full of amazement.

"Master Song, I didn't expect that there would be such a literati in the Ci Sect."

"I do understand the old man's thoughts a little bit."

Song Mu bowed and just spoke in a gentle voice.

"Then Song would like to ask Elder Tao to give me some advice. Elder Lin has many scholars with him, and each of them has this ability."

“It will definitely be a huge help by then.”

Tao Changqing did not comment, and now he looked a little impatient. He bowed to Song Mu and invited Lin Qi and others to go outside to compete.

Song Mu, who was standing in the hall, still had a calm expression on his face, but Yan Fu next to him spoke.

"Master, I am finding you increasingly difficult to understand."

"The stars are mysterious, and there are many people who use them in this world, but Song should have a pretty good grasp of them."
