Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 757: White Dragon Fishing Suit, Plague Emperor Passing Through

"Fellow Daoist, have you really made up your mind?" Suddenly, these words rang in Ao Bing's ears - this almost startled Ao Bing so much that he appeared from his changing form.

The next moment, Ao Bing calmed down again.

Because he had recognized the owner of the voice.

God of Plague, Lu Yue.

The ruler of all severe diseases and plagues between heaven and earth.

The reason why Lu Yue was able to find Ao Bing was also because of this reason.

Plague locust - it is a locust, and it also means plague.

When it swept across the land, it not only brought unprecedented famine, but also unprecedented plague.

Along with the plague came Lu Yue's ritual for achieving Daluo, which also manifested naturally.

The great plague that swept across the heaven and earth, even though Lu Yue had once considered spreading the plague on earth as a ritual for his ascension to Daluo, he had never imagined that it would become such a big fuss.

But now that this plan has been established, Lu Yue will of course go with the flow and push forward the ritual to ascend to Daluo.

Then, following the traces of the plague, Lu Yue naturally discovered the existence of Ao Bing.

——Similarly, while carrying out the ritual of the plague to ascend to Daluo, Lu Yue also blocked the other Daluo from searching for Ao Bing through the trajectory of the plague.

"Brother Lu, are you here to stop me?" Ao Bing asked.

"I am here to tell you that if you have made up your mind, you should act as soon as possible."

"The Jade Emperor has issued an order for the Heavenly Medical Department to enter the mortal world to cure the plague."

"At the same time, he also issued an order for the Red Luan Star Lord to return to heaven as soon as possible to avoid turbulent marriages and unstable fates in the mortal world."

"However, Nezha led the Dou tribe gods to seal off the Southern Continent in the name of subduing demons, so this decree has not yet reached the hands of the Red Luan Star Lord."

"But Nezha can't delay for too long."

"Daoyou, my friend, don't have much time." Lu Yue said calmly, using the ritual to activate his authority, making the plague energy caused by the locusts even more intense and severe. This move would certainly make the plague in the world even more uncontrollable, but because the immortals and gods from the Heavenly Medicine Department had already entered the scene, the plague would not actually cause many terrible casualties.

After such a terrible incident, the evil spirits of plague in various parts of the world will be detonated, and the world will not have to worry about being invaded by plague for the next few hundred years.

Moreover, when Lu Yue was causing the plague energy to flow, he was even more conscious in causing it to spread to places where there were many cultivators.

With such an action, the First Emperor's motorcade was naturally the first to bear the brunt.

As the plague wind blew, Lu Yue's plague flag could be faintly seen.

Seeing the flag appear, all the gods and immortals guarding the Chidao retreated.

The First Emperor stopped here on his way back to Xianyang.

"Prime Minister, this is the Plague Emperor walking among the people, gathering and dispersing the plague energy from everywhere."

"If we collide with it, the plague and calamity will spread everywhere, which will cause endless disasters." A Daluo disciple stood in front of Li Si and activated his magic to deflect the oncoming plague wind. Other immortals and gods who moved with the carriage also followed suit.

But after just this one incident, all these immortals and gods were invaded by the plague, and a pale color appeared on their faces. The balance of the five elements in their bodies was shaken because of the plague.

This is the horror of the plague - it itself is a manifestation of the vital energy of heaven and earth, and is consistent with Yin Yang and the Five Elements. Once it comes into contact with the Yin Yang and the Five Elements, it will directly deflect the properties of Yin Yang and the Five Elements. The more profound the person's magic power, the greater the impact.

Especially those who only accumulate magic power but do not have a smooth and seamless control over it, may even die directly from this plague.

"Even if it was the God of Plague spreading the plague, how could he possibly hit your Majesty's carriage?" Li Si's face darkened. "It's clearly coming for your Majesty."

"Prime Minister Li, that's not the case." The Taoist hurriedly explained, describing one by one what he had sensed about the flow of the plague energy between heaven and earth.

"Prime Minister Li, in order to reconcile the plague and epidemic, the more immortals and gods there are in a place, the more likely it is to be swept by the plague."

"The intention is to use the immortal gods' long life force to ease the invasion of the plague, waiting for the immortal doctors from the Heavenly Medicine Department to come to help."

"If not, with the severity of the locust plague, the aura of the plague and disease would fall on mortals. I'm afraid that within an instant, seven or eight out of ten mortals would die."

The Taoist said this while sighing.

There are countless immortals and gods in this world, and countless sects. When they see Lu Yue using the Daluo ritual to cause the plague to spread to their own place, causing themselves and their disciples to be harmed by the plague, don’t they have any objections?
Of course there is.

But they are practitioners after all, and they have long lifespans - even if they are infected by the plague, they can always hold on until the heavenly doctor comes to help.

For them, sharing the plague energy in the world with themselves, diluting the plague energy in the world and making the vast majority of mortals sick but not dead, so that they can wait for the heavenly doctors to deduce a prescription, instead of dying directly from the disease, is also a merit.

Therefore, under such circumstances, they can only accept it.

Similarly, under the suppression of the human spirit, those heavenly doctors who came down to earth could not use any magical powers and could only prepare medicines to dispel the plague in the ordinary form of mortals. However, the Plague Emperor Lu Yue completely ignored the suppression of the human spirit and was able to display his magical powers in this world, and he did not even shy away from approaching the First Emperor's carriage. This was also the reason.

Because it is truly moving for the common people of heaven and earth, and for the common people of human beings.

His actions not only have the support of heaven and earth, but also the support of humanity.

This is the difference between righteous gods and evil gods. Among righteous gods, even the "evil gods" adhere to the concept of valuing life when exercising their authority. They also try to minimize casualties, rather than deliberately increasing casualties of living beings in order to demonstrate their own authority and show their "indispensability".

It is said that the general trend is unstoppable, and in most cases, when the righteous gods take action, it is the general trend.

"Prime Minister Li, this place is certainly the one that His Majesty chased after, but isn't it also where immortals and gods gather?" The Taoist said as he pointed to his own face and to other immortals and gods who had found places to sit down, harmonize their vital energy, and stabilize their magic power.

Hearing this, Li Si was also stunned, then he couldn't help coughing, and suddenly he felt a little weak.

In an instant, he realized the horror of this plague - even a person like him who was not susceptible to any disease would be affected by the plague. Even immortals and gods at the Taiyi level would be disturbed if they were blown by the plague.

One can imagine the severity of this plague.

If there is no restriction, no coordination, and the plague is allowed to fall on the earth indiscriminately, how many people will die? "Wu Guang is hateful!" Li Si said coldly, and then he immediately took out his knife and pen, and once again used his power as prime minister to issue an order to Xianyang - in addition to collecting food, the spiritual herbs and medicines from all over the place should also be collected to be used by those heavenly doctors.

In addition, some of Qin's elite troops were also transferred to where the heavenly doctors were.

Tianyi are a very special group. Although they are immortals, their fighting power is not high.

Moreover, because the medicines and prescriptions prepared by those heavenly doctors are for mortals, they must also understand the medicinal properties of various medicines and experience the pestilence of the plague as mortals. Only in this way can they ensure that the prescriptions and medicinal properties they prepare can be effective on mortals.

Just like Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs in the past, he also tasted the bitterness of hundreds of herbs and suffered from all kinds of poisons in his mortal body.

It is precisely because of this that those heavenly doctors who have entered the mortal world appear to be particularly vulnerable. Once they are attacked by someone with ulterior motives, there is a great possibility that they will perish.

"In the face of plague and famine, food and medicine are the most precious things in the world." Zhao Gao appeared cautiously behind Li Si.

"Your Majesty ordered the collection of grain, and the Prime Minister ordered the collection of medicine."

"People in the world dare not resent your majesty, but they will definitely blame the prime minister."

"After returning to Xianyang, the Prime Minister will probably have a hard time," said Zhao Gao.

In the past, he and Li Si had never interfered with each other. They neither caused trouble for each other nor reached cooperation with each other.

After all, there are two of them, one inside and one outside. If they stand together, then the First Emperor will feel uneasy.

But now... Zhao Gao has already sensed a considerable sense of crisis.

It didn’t come from the great defeat at the hands of Zhang Han.

Rather, it came from an edict that he had written but had not yet issued.

Through this edict, Zhao Gao suddenly realized that his understanding of the First Emperor seemed to be only superficial - for a close attendant like him who was completely dependent on the First Emperor, not knowing enough about the First Emperor's mind was no different from death.

In this situation, he could only choose to save himself.

It was impossible for him to test the First Emperor's thoughts - so, he could only pin his hopes on Li Si, hoping that Li Si could give him some advice.

He hoped that Li Si would help him out because of their past friendship.

Therefore, he also needed to create some sense of crisis for Li Si, so that Li Si would "need" his existence.

Otherwise, he would be too passive in front of Li Si.

"As long as your majesty is still here, how can you tolerate those demons and monsters in Xianyang?" Li Si's gaze fell in the direction of Xianyang, and then he snorted coldly.

Only Li Si knew how furious he was about his own children being involved in testing the First Emperor's mind. In the era of the Seven Kingdoms' War, discord between generals and ministers was a major event that would lead to the downfall of the country, let alone discord between the emperor and his ministers.
If the First Emperor really developed a grudge against me because of this incident and started to be wary of me, and the emperor and his ministers could no longer be close to each other, then it is hard to imagine how the situation would develop and whether the Qin Dynasty's achievements would be ruined.

In the era of the Seven Kingdoms, was Li Si really the most talented person among the Seven Kingdoms?
of course not!

Among the seven countries, there are countless people whose talents surpass Li Si.

But why did Qin destroy the other six kingdoms when Li Si was in charge of Qin's political strategy?

It was only because the First Emperor gave Li Si the greatest trust and the greatest room to display his talents, while the talented people of the other six countries had to consider the fear from their monarchs no matter what they did, so they could only produce 30% of the results with 10% of their talents.

Naturally, they were destroyed one after another by the Qin State.

Therefore, this time when he returned to Xianyang with the First Emperor, the situation was not about those people in Xianyang making things difficult for Li Si, but rather a question of whether he, Li Si, should take the opportunity to settle accounts with those people.

"After the plague, the food and grass will inevitably be damaged."

"If the Minister of Chariots has time, he might as well prepare meals for His Majesty again." After a moment, Li Si retracted his gaze and looked at the chef who was preparing meals for the First Emperor, frowning slightly.

"In addition, I would like to trouble the Commander-in-Chief to ask Your Majesty one more question. Now that the plague has passed through the territory, many of the guards and immortals have been injured. Your Majesty, do you plan to wait for them or continue to go to Xianyang?"

Hearing Li Si's words, Zhao Gao couldn't help but be shocked.

As the Imperial Chariot Commander, his biggest responsibility was to serve the First Emperor well - but now, in his anxiety about gains and losses, he actually forgot about the impact that the plague might have on the First Emperor's diet.

This is simply an intolerable omission!

After the plague, everything near the road was dying, and it was not easy to find some fresh food.

Fortunately, the First Emperor was indeed "given the mandate of heaven" - Zhao Gao fished out a fresh dragon carp!

The huge vitality in the dragon carp resists the erosion of plague and disease, making it not affected by the plague at all.

So Zhao Gao immediately presented the dragon carp to the First Emperor.

During this process, Li Si wanted to stop it, but was stopped by the Taoist priest next to him.

"Prime Minister, we have seen that the carp is indeed a mundane thing and has nothing to do with cultivation."

“But I heard that the dragon clan has a method of transformation that can change the dragon body into the form of a fish - this is the first-class method of transformation between heaven and earth. No matter how great the immortal or god is, it is difficult to see the true nature of the fish form.” Li Si said in a deep voice.

At this time, the situation was turbulent, and he instinctively rejected any unfamiliar things that appeared around the First Emperor.

"The method the Prime Minister is talking about is called the White Dragon Fish Suit Method."

"This is indeed the first-class transformation method between heaven and earth."

"But this method has a fatal flaw." The Taoist said calmly, combing his own body carefully - the plague had indeed shaken his body, but at the same time, it also revealed the flaws in his body, giving him the opportunity to make up for the flaws and go further.

"The White Dragon Fish Suit does not transform into a fish, but it really transforms into a mortal creature."

“No matter what kind of power the dragon had before, as long as it uses this method, it will be just an ordinary mortal creature and will not be able to use any magical powers until it is released.”
