From Terra to Terra, the Star Emperor's Holiday

As cause and effect go on, Shu only knew that she and her sisters would eventually be killed together by the man in front of her named Si Ye, but how they would be killed together became a question hidden in Shu's heart.

Now listening to Nian's explanation, it seems that Si Ye is almost certain to deal with the alien creatures that even giant beasts like the evil demon have difficulty dealing with. That is indeed beyond 99% of the existence on this land.

The more she thought about it, the more curious she looked at Si Ye. She hadn't reacted at all. She had already started to explore Si Ye and took the first step to achieve the "result" of the "cause".

"...Indeed, I feel inferior to the one your sister brought back, but..."

The old Taoist priest touched a piece of snack on the table, and his tone contained a hint of request.

"Dealing with evil spirits usually requires a lot of fanfare. Can you tell me what you're going to do? I can make some preparations in advance to avoid any unnecessary losses."

"Indeed, I really need to ask Tianshi and Shu for their opinions."

Slightly enlarging the sensing range, Si Ye pulled Shu and the old Taoist priest into his evil perspective. The gray sky made Shu and the old Taoist priest subconsciously alert.

"The evil fragments of the Great Wasteland City are lodged in the soil. If we want to eradicate them, I'm afraid we can't keep this and these two plots of land."

Si Ye pointed to several plots of land with the thickest gray fog. He could use the collapse paradigm to catch the evil spirits and eat them, but as long as people passed by those plots of land and emotions existed, the polluted land would continue to breed new evil spirits over the years.

"Those are... Jiawu, Jiasan, and Bingyi... These are the plots of land where Dahuang City was first built."

Shu followed the direction Si Ye pointed and read out the numbers of the plots one by one, his tone tinged with nostalgia.

At the beginning, 'Shennong' went to the north of the Great Wilderness to look for new seeds, but encountered the pollution of evil spirits and collapsed. Shu brought Shennong back for burial, but the seeds brought back by Shennong contained potential collapse pollution, which led to the appearance of evil spirit fragments underground.

After going around in circles, everything seems to have returned to the starting point.

"Si Ye-chan...Si Ye, what do you mean by 'cannot be abandoned'? Completely abandoned, or can it be demolished, cleaned of contaminated soil, and reused?"

A mobile plot of land is very expensive, let alone a plot of land used for planting like the Great Wilderness. The suspension of one or two plots of land may very likely lead to food shortages in some area of ​​Dayan in winter. The old Taoist priest had to inquire about the details.

"Just cleaning up the contaminated soil is fine, but honestly, demonic contamination is like a cancer in the flesh. No one can guarantee that the land itself has not been affected."

After all, the evil fragments can develop from the contaminated seeds into their current appearance. If there are any residues left in the land, it will sooner or later become a hidden danger.

"this…"

This involves a huge issue. Dahuang supplies food to the entire northern part of Yan State. The old Taoist priest cannot tell how much the output will be affected if one or two plots are missing, so he can only seek help from the more professional millet.

"Dahuang City has plans to build new plots of land, but if we want to make up for the three plots... I'm afraid it won't be possible this year. Without the output of three plots, if we don't have a good harvest, this year's grain output will be reduced by half."

Shu also frowned. The output of Dahuang was the lifeblood of many people. She felt a little reluctant to see the people starve in order to help her escape.

"Nian...why don't we discuss this matter later? That evil demon isn't enough to wear me out. It won't be too late to make plans after this autumn harvest."

"no!"

Nian was anxious. Although she also loved those who worked hard to live on this earth, she could not just watch her sister struggling and do nothing.

What's more, no matter how terrifying the evil demon is, it is said that it can still hold on, but who knows whether the evil demon fragments will suddenly become stronger. If it is not dealt with quickly, it will be too late to regret when it reaches a point where it cannot be reversed.

"Nian, be obedient, sister will be fine."

Shu coaxed Nian like a child, with an expression that said it was decided, which made Nian so anxious that he stamped his feet.

It's hard to say what the old Taoist priest said in this situation. The northern defense line also depends on the supply of Dahuang, but Shu has also worked hard for this Dahuang City for a thousand years. It's really annoying that he is stuck in two ends.

"I said, actually, this is not a big deal,"

Si Ye grabbed Nian, who was about to jump up in anxiety. It was because Nian was too worried, otherwise how could she forget that Si Ye had plenty of supplies and food, and also forget that she was actually the agent of the Sui beast that Si Ye was in charge of casting.

"I have food, and I can also have mobile land."

Snapped!

Nian finally reacted and slapped the old Taoist priest on the thigh with sudden realization. The old Taoist priest grimaced in pain.

"That's right, Si Ye, you don't need those things at all... mobile plots... I'm still the agent of Si Zhangxing's authority. As long as I have the materials, a mobile plot is nothing!"

"...young boy...you are very good!"

That is to say, the old Taoist priest had a strong body, and although he was in terrible pain, he was not injured after all. Otherwise, if he was slapped unconsciously by the giant beast's agent, not only would he have broken his legs and bones, but he would also definitely have bruises on his skin and flesh.

"Do you have food? That's half of the total amount of food in the dozens of plots of land in the Great Wilderness. It's not a small amount."

Shu looked at Si Ye and kindly reminded him that Dahuang had to supply the food needs of all the villages and towns in the northern border, which was a huge number.

"When it comes to the hunger and thirst of the people, you can't just talk nonsense."

"You can rest assured, Shu. If I say there is, it will only be more, not less. However, whether it is for supplies or new plots of land, it depends on the negotiation between Tianshi and the Hundred Zao of Yan Country."

Si Ye smiled and shook his head. Isn’t it a small amount?

Taking into account the entire population of Yan Country, can they eat half a 'green apple' in a year?

Chapter 112 Bai Zao's Reply

Hundred stoves.

In the Houde Hall.

The ministers were still expressing their opinions and discussing with each other. The noisy voices made Zhenlong feel a little tired.

He should have been taking a day off today, but because of the Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals landship, Zhenlong had to get up early to attend court, and he has been busy until now.

Agent of the Year Beast.

The twelve people who emerged after the death of the Year Beast, there was a period of time when the Yan Kingdom and these agents had a period of mutual dependence.

The first and third agents had both defended the northern border for Dayan. The prototype of Dayan's mobile city was also contributed by the agent number nine. Even the second agent, who was labeled a "criminal", had made suggestions for Dayan's military deployment.

Everything originated from that catastrophe. The agent Wang broke into the Sui Mausoleum secretly, wanting to completely destroy and kill the Sui Beast and put an end to the biggest worry for their family.

But the result ended in failure. Jie, who was number five, died, and his soul returned to the Sui Beast, causing the countdown for the Sui Beast's revival. Agent Wang wanted to take revenge on the court because Simaitai watched Agent Jie die. Later, he was subdued and imprisoned in an ancient temple. Agent Wang was dissatisfied and split himself into 185 black pieces, escaped from the ancient temple, and intended to compete with Dayan for the world.

At this point, the honeymoon period between the Sui Beast Agent and Yan State was completely over. Regarding the attitude towards the Sui Beast Agent, Yan State was completely divided into two wills, namely the pro-war faction that advocated taking the initiative and eliminating the threat in advance, and the conservative faction that mainly advocated affinity and intended to appease.

The rule that there could not be more than two agents in one place was also formulated at that time.

The same reason was behind the quarrel in the court. The land-based ship carrying the two agents headed straight for the Great Wilderness. Moreover, due to the special origin of the land-based ship, it introduced external influences, which caused the two factions to argue endlessly about whether to stop it or persuade it to leave.

However, despite the quarrel, the representative of the pro-war faction, the Grand Marshal, had already sent out the Simuitai candle holder, intending to solve the problem first. The Grand Tutor of the pro-peace faction did a favor and asked Cang Tingbo to take the Tianshi of Baizao Tianji Pavilion to the north to exchange for the old Tianshi who was alone in the northern wilderness, in an attempt to stabilize the situation.

Zhenlong saw the little tricks of the two factions, but he didn't care and was too lazy to care. Both sides were fighting for the country of Yan. As long as nothing was done out of the ordinary, there would be no right or wrong. Whoever did the right thing would be rewarded. For the emperor, checks and balances were also an important part of the imperial mind.

However, Zhenlong always felt a little uneasy today. The last time he had this feeling was when he was painting in his own palace. As a result, he heard the news that his donkey brother killed his foolish father and ran away with his personal guards. Oh, and took his lovely sister away too.

That day, the dragon robe was put on him, and he was forced to become the new real dragon.

Now I feel uneasy again. I wonder if something big is going to happen again.

The more he thought about it, the uglier Zhenlong's expression became, and the voices of the ministers below who were observing his words and expressions became lighter and lighter, until they were completely silent.

The eunuch seemed to have received some news and stood quietly beside the real dragon.

"Your Majesty, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue has an urgent report."

Zhenlong really wanted to roll his eyes. Is this premonition really so accurate?

"Show it up and distribute it to everyone."

But the work still had to be done. Zhenlong braced himself and decided to see how bad the bad news was.

[The Sui Beast's agent, Nian, ordered the millets to gather in the Great Wilderness. The Candlelight Man's actions were stopped by the Lord of the Tianji Pavilion.]

Is it bad?

As bad.

If it weren't for the dragon robe on his body, the real dragon could just casually say, "It's just a meeting between sisters."

But when wearing this dragon robe, the real dragon has to think about the country and people of Dayan. When the three agents gather together, there is a possibility of awakening the consciousness of the Year Beast. Although it is only a possibility, if it is awakened, even a trace of the Year Beast's consciousness is enough to stir up the situation in a city and cause the people of Dayan to die.

"Your Majesty, the Sui Beast's agent, Nian Ling, is violating Si Sui Tai law. Immediately dispatch personnel to stop the gathering and bring Nian Ling back to Bai Zao for questioning."

After reading the brief report, the ministers had similar reactions, except that the Grand Marshal took the initiative and spoke first.

"…Your Majesty, you can first order the agents to separate. The Pavilion Master of Heavenly Secrets is in the Great Wilderness, and the people of the Great Wilderness are safe. You can first ask the Pavilion Master of Heavenly Secrets why he allowed the agents to enter the city. After understanding the truth, you can make a judgment."

The Grand Tutor also hurriedly offered his advice.

If the letter only contained the first half, Zhenlong would have acted according to the words of the radical general. After all, protecting the important food city of Dahuang City was more important. But with the second half of the letter about the old Tianshi, the master of Tianji Pavilion, this matter would have to be considered more carefully.

The old Taoist priest has guarded the northern border of Dayan for more than 300 years and has made great contributions. The other party allowed the agent of the Year Beast to enter the city. There must be a well-thought-out consideration on the part of the other party. Could there be a turning point in the matter of the Year Beast?

The real dragon fell into deep thought, and the ministers below were also pondering. For a moment, the hall became silent again.

"Urgent news~"

Suddenly, there was a rapid sound outside the hall. It was the sound of an emergency communication. The eunuch opened the door and the messenger holding the emergency key rushed into the hall and knelt on one knee.

"Report! The Master of the Tianji Pavilion has activated the emergency communication system in Dahuang City. Note: Your Majesty, please be informed immediately. All officials below the Three Dukes must step aside!"

The ministers looked at each other in bewilderment, but they could not fake the urgent report of the key. Seeing that the real dragon did not make any other moves, all the ministers withdrew except the Grand Marshal and the Grand Tutor.

The key was placed in the instrument in the hall, and the eunuchs began to leave. As the machine hummed, the figure of the old Taoist priest shook a few times on the screen and gradually became clear.

"This broken instrument...does it get inspected every year? Why is it so slow?"

The old Taoist priest seemed to have not yet noticed that the communication was connected, and spoke words that made the guard in charge of the equipment in Dahuang City look terrified.

"Ahem...Tianshi, something's wrong in Dahuang."

In order to prevent the old Taoist priest from saying anything more outrageous, the Grand Tutor coughed twice and asked the question that everyone in the hall was most concerned about.

"Oh? It's working...Okay, you can go now."

The old Taoist priest turned his head and saw that the communication was normal. He waved his hand to drive away the sweating guard beside him, with a look of confusion on his face.

"Dahuang? Dahuang is fine. What's wrong? With me here, how can there be any troublemakers?"

"What was the purpose of that day's master activating emergency communication?"

Emergency communication, as the name suggests, is a communication channel used to summarize important matters.

In the high-altitude environment of Terra Continent, which is filled with Originium dust, if a mobile city wants to maintain such a high-intensity communication, the Originium consumed every minute is enough to put the mobile city into an energy shortage dilemma.

Regardless of the considerations, Zhenlong hopes that the old Taoist priest can speak quickly.

"…The information I compiled has been conveyed to Your Majesty. Communications have been activated to facilitate answering Your Majesty's questions."

Zhenlong looked at the table in front of him. A small lamp was flickering among the antique styles. Although Yan Kingdom was a feudal dynasty that followed the ancient system, it did not mean that the royal family would not enjoy the convenience brought by technology.

The eunuchs had already left, and Zhenlong could only move his body twice and press the button under the table. With a squeaking sound, a document was spit out from the device built into the table.
