Yunwuze, as the name suggests, must be closely related to water mist. Shrouded in thick water mist, it looks completely white from a distance, and only when you get close to it can you clearly see the surrounding scenery.
Not long after, a huge black shadow like a hill appeared in front of his sight, with sparse black dots scattered around it like stars.
Chief Yang, a good old man who has been in the Exorcism Department all his life, couldn't help but show a little arrogance at this time.
"Sir, please look, ahead is the exorcism department's world-famous treasure ship!"
Xu Luo didn't speak. He was comforting Jinnu just now, but now as the treasure ship got closer, he also had the sense of depression and crisis that Jinnu said.
He always felt that the huge treasure ship in front of him, soaring into the sky, could come to life and bite him at any time.
Fortunately, these are probably just his illusions, at least Tong Ming Xin hasn't reacted much yet.
The iron wooden boat slowly approached the ship's side like a city wall. Chief Yang and Xu Luo jumped up and landed on the ship's side.
Under the surprised gazes of Xu Luo and the two men, the ten-foot-long iron wooden boat instantly clung to the side of the boat like a child returning to its mother's arms.
The boat squirmed and turned into a boat-shaped patch embedded in the hull.
Viewed from a high position at this moment, the treasure ship looks like a huge honeycomb, with ships of various sizes going in and out like busy worker ants.
"If you want to appreciate this spectacular scene, you can spend some time in the future. How about we go to the meeting hall first?"
Xu Luo looked over with some confusion, and Manager Yang explained again.
"My lord, your current duty is to serve as a high-ranking patrol envoy. As a rule, you should also meet with the Chief Minister and the Duke of the State.
But some time ago, his old man had announced that he would be practicing in seclusion, and all matters of the exorcism department were temporarily handled by the Exorcist Secretary Ning.
Mr. Ning always attaches great importance to rules. At this time, he should still be busy with official duties in the meeting hall. Sir, please come with me."
Ning Siming? It can’t be that Ning Zihao, right?
Xu Luo's heart suddenly suddenly felt bad, and he had a bad feeling subconsciously. The things this man did back then were considered frivolous and insane, but that was all considered trivial.
But what is even more disturbing is that this guy has done such evil things, but his reputation has not been tarnished at all, which shows how deep his scheming is!
He actually already holds great power in the Exorcism Department, and he must be a practitioner as well. With so many years of support from the Duke's Office behind him, his level of combat power is even more extraordinary.
Xu Luo's mind was racing, but his face was calm and calm, so he followed Master Yang up the wide wooden ladder to the third floor.
As they walked, Manager Yang made another introduction.
"This treasure ship is divided into seven floors. The top floor is the foundation inheritance building. Only those with great merit are not allowed to enter. The lower floor is where the Zhu Xie Lieutenant is stationed above the ground level. No one dares to wander there without permission.
The fifth floor is the meeting hall, where the treasurer is located, the fourth floor is where the three outer halls hold meetings, and below that is where the low-ranking Zhuxie officers are stationed.
However, colleagues in the department who are a little bit capable will not stay here all day, and most of them will stay on the Dazzling Island not far away.
There is a complete range of food, drink and entertainment there, and there is also a very important training workshop and market, which is also very convenient for trading spiritual objects, refining alchemy and making utensils."
While the two were talking, they came to a large square. If Xu Luo hadn't just seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have even realized that he was actually on a big ship.
All kinds of exotic flowers and plants are planted around the square, and rare birds and animals jump among them.
There was even a faint sound of trickling water in my ears. After a closer look, I realized that there was a clear stream flowing among the lush vegetation.
Facing the square is a tall palace. The door is open at this time, and servants and masters are running back and forth from time to time.
When they got here, Principal Yang handed Xu Luo over to apologize.
"This is the meeting hall. I don't dare to enter until I'm summoned, so I can only leave first.
In addition, as usual, you can choose a house on Dazzling Island, or you can choose an uninhabited island nearby and repair your residence by yourself. I don’t know what your plans are..."
"Then please help Mr. Yang to help me choose a cleaner island!"
Xu Luo interrupted him before he finished speaking. There was no need to hesitate. He had so many secrets that no one could believe him.
Manager Yang nodded respectfully.
"In this case, I will take my leave first and leave. Sir, please do as you please!"
Xu Luo also bowed his hands to express his thanks and watched Master Yang leave but did not rush into the meeting hall.
He walked to the chest-high side of the ship and looked down for a few times, as if admiring the magnificent scene of clouds and mist, but in reality his spiritual consciousness was silently falling towards the top of the treasure ship.
That's where he feels the strongest threat!
Chi la...
The next moment, Xu Luo felt as if there was an electric light flashing in his head, and that ray of spiritual consciousness was simply destroyed without even having time to send out the message.
The last scene left behind was that of giant tree-like tower-like things standing on the top floor of the treasure ship. From time to time, frightening lightning flashes appeared on the tower.
The pain in Xu Luo's eyes flashed away, and his heart became increasingly wary of this treasure ship.
After a long while, he restored the green ox cart to its original state and asked the slave to wait here. Then Shi Shiran walked into the door of the meeting hall.
When Xu Luo walked in, no one glanced at him. Everyone seemed to have their butts burned, moving in a hurry, coming and going in a hurry.
There are more people on both sides of the hall, holding various books and waiting quietly. The hall is obviously crowded, but everything is busy, not chaotic, and orderly.
The middle-aged man who was crouching at his desk correcting something would spit out a few short words from his mouth from time to time, which echoed in the quiet hall.
Xu Luo took advantage of the situation and stood at the end of the team, observing everything quietly, occasionally glancing at the middle-aged man who should be Ning Zihao out of the corner of his eye.
At this moment, he has changed a lot compared to what he had imagined.
He has a long beard on his chin, a few wisps of gray on his temples, and his chiseled face is full of maturity and stability. Just one look at him can give people an extremely reliable feeling.
Until night fell, the moon dust beads in the hall were lit up one by one, and the white light illuminated the ground, and there were only a few sparse people left in the hall.
Ning Zihao, who had been busy for an unknown amount of time, finally raised his head.
Seeing Xu Luo standing below on crutches, the confusion in his eyes flashed away, and then a look of sudden realization appeared in his eyes.
"You should be Colonel Xu Luo from Panshi City... No, you should be called Xu Xunyou now!"
A perfect smile appeared on Xu Luo's face, and he bent down to salute.
"Xu Luo has met Ning Siming!"
Ning Zihao walked around from behind the desk, held Xu Luo's arm affectionately, and sat down on the chair next to him.
"No need to be too polite, no need to be too polite. Young heroes like you are the future of our Exorcism Department. No wonder His Majesty insists on transferring you to the Chief Department. It's amazing, it's amazing!"
There was a hint of envy in his expression, and his words were very gentle, but Xu Luo felt as if there were countless ants crawling over him, and goosebumps appeared all over his body unconsciously.
Fortunately, his physical control is no longer what it used to be, and the smile on his face is even brighter, and he is even slightly proud of himself, which is a vivid expression of a young man who suddenly meets the attention of a noble person, but still has a little arrogance in his heart.
Ning Zihao patted his palm lightly and glanced vaguely between his legs.
"Compared to others, Xu Xunyou is even more worthy of admiration!"
Having said this, he paused for a moment, his face full of compassion, and he sighed with emotion.
"If everyone in my exorcism department is as tenacious and tenacious as Xu Xunxu, then that will be a prosperous and peaceful time when everyone is like a dragon. Why let those monsters and monsters run rampant outside the city?"
Gee, they are all good actors!
Xu Luoteng stood up, tears flashed vaguely in his eyes, and finally he burst into excitement.
"Xu Luonai comes from a small place and doesn't understand any big principles, but he still understands the simple principles of repaying kindness with kindness.
Since Your Majesty attaches so much importance to it, please rest assured, Commander, I will swear that this broken body will not be incompatible with weird and evil things."
Ning Zihao stroked his beard and smiled, nodding his head from time to time with an expression of relief, and quickly motioned for Xu Luo to sit down and invite tea.
The two complimented each other, no, after chatting for a moment, Ning Zihao seemed to smile unintentionally.
"Now that Xu's inspection tour has arrived, how about taking over the difficult and unsolved case of dripping inkstone, which has been delayed for several years but still unsolved, to share the worries of the department?"
Xu Luo's heart trembled, knowing that the drama was coming.
What dripping inkstone? Damn it, I just arrived in Beijing today and I don’t know what the heck it is.
But Ning Zihao, an old bastard, has the temper to act after he has made up his mind. He has already arranged everything properly, but only Xu Luo, the leading actor, is not in place. How can he still have a choice?
Now Xu Luo's only advantage is that Ning Zihao doesn't know that Xu Luo already knows his past and character, and it can be said that the enemy is in darkness and we are in the clear.
In order to avoid Ning Zihao's suspicion, Xu Luo could only agree with a forced smile, no matter how unwilling he was.
Seeing that Xu Luo seemed to agree without even thinking, Ning Zihaojun once again had a look of emotion on his face.
"The inspection is indeed worthy of His Majesty's appointment of talented people. Lieutenant Xuan Yu has been inspecting it for nearly two years, but there has been no results at all..."
Next, Ning Zihao was all blushing and flattering, and he almost turned Xu Luo into the Jade Pillar of the Exorcist Department and the Divine Needle of Dinghai. If he didn't come, the entire capital city would be destroyed by strange monsters!
Lieutenant Xuan Yu?
Xu Luo's mind moved. If it was really Li Boyu's Xuan Yuwei, that would be really interesting!
"However, since I have just arrived in Beijing for my humble job, I am very unfamiliar with all the situations and people. It would be best if the department dispatched veterans who are familiar with the local situation to help."
Ning Zihao's heart moved. It seemed that this person was not completely mentally retarded. He also knew how to ask for conditions. He laughed heartily and tacitly understood.
"Such a trivial matter is worth mentioning. If Xu Xunyou likes anyone, just say it."
The character Xu Luo is currently creating is that of a stupid young man with some cleverness, who naturally needs to be straightforward and confident.
He mentioned a few things about Cui Hao he met on the road.
Ning Zihao was really resolute. Of course, he might have wanted Xu Luo to quickly take over the dripping inkstone, so he immediately ordered the firemen waiting outside to transfer Cui Hao over as soon as possible.
The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, but Xu Luo was still a little less enthusiastic after all. He really couldn't stand this guy talking nonsense, and he was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would be tempted to shoot him to death, so he excused himself and left, saying that he was tired during the journey.
Ning Zihao affectionately sent him outside the palace and watched him disappear before turning back to the palace.
