Terran Guardian

Seeing the horrified expressions of the people around him, Guan Zuo turned around and looked at the government officials who were chasing him, his expression cold and terrifying.

"Take care of the things here, and send someone to Fengyun Village to take a look. I'm going to the Demon Suppressing Division now!"

"I humbly obey my orders!"

All the officials understood the seriousness of the matter.

In the past, no evil spirit dared to enter the capital, let alone an evil spirit to assassinate imperial officials in the capital.

Fortunately.

To be able to serve as an official in the court, and to hold an important position in a place like the capital, ordinary people are not qualified at all.

Although Guan Zuo is a civil servant, he is also an innately powerful person in the world.

The evil spirit that attacked and killed could possess him. Although he had entered the ranks of resentment level, there was a huge gap compared to the other party.

That's why.

That evil spirit will be killed by Guan Zuo.

While the yamen were disposing of the corpses on the ground and Guan Zuo hurried to the Demon Suppressing Division.

royal palace.

Inside the observatory.

A self-rotating ball suddenly vibrated, and a faint black light appeared, and then quickly disappeared.

And in front of the ball.

An old Taoist who was sitting cross-legged in meditation opened his eyes in vain and looked at the ball with a shocked expression.

"There's something wrong with the magic detector!"

"No, there are evil spirits sneaking into the capital."

The old Taoist stood up directly from the ground, his original calm demeanor no longer able to be maintained.

"Somebody come!"

An angry shout.

A man dressed as a eunuch came forward and bowed in salute: "May I ask what the commander's orders are?"

"There is something strange happening with the magic detector, and there is something evil appearing in the capital. Please report it to Your Majesty immediately!"

The old man looked cold.

The eunuch looked shocked and hurriedly replied: "Yes!"

Finished.

He left in a hurry.

Not long.

Gu Xuanji came to the observatory and took a look at the magic detector in front of him that had returned to normal, with a solemn expression.

at this time.

The old Taoist bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, Baiyue, has met!"

"No gifts!"

Gu Xuanji waved his hand, but his eyes still stayed on the magic detector.

"You said that the magic detector is acting strangely because there is an evil spirit appearing in the capital?"

"That's right." Baiyue handed over his hand: "The Demon Detector can monitor the capital, but any evil breath leaked will cause the Demon Detector to move abnormally. Just now, the Demon Detector started to move abnormally, which means there must be an evil spirit born.

But the abnormal movement appeared very quickly and disappeared very quickly. According to my guess, there are only two possibilities. "

"Which two are possible?"

"First, Yaoxie has been killed, and secondly, Yaoxie has gone into hiding again."

Baiyue looked heavy.

"But one thing is certain, that evil spirit is definitely not too strong. Only evil spirits below the evil level can hide the evil aura under the monitoring of the magic detector."

The higher the evil level, the stronger the evil aura.

Gu Xuanji looked away from the magic measuring instrument and looked at Baiyue.

"Is it possible that the evil aura is coming from the Demon Suppression Department?"

"Impossible, the evil spirits in the Demon Suppression Division are all imprisoned in the Demon Suppression Prison and the Demon Sealing Tower. They can isolate the evil aura there and will definitely not trigger the demon detector unless there is an outbreak of evil aura elsewhere in the Demon Suppression Division.

This point requires His Majesty to send someone to check. "

Baiyue said truthfully.

Hear the words.

Gu Xuanji nodded slightly, and then asked one more question: "Also, is it possible that there is something wrong with the magic measuring instrument?"

"Absolutely not!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was strongly denied by Baiyue.

Finished.

Baiyue also realized his gaffe, and immediately raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the magic measuring instrument was painstakingly developed by our Shangqing Palace for hundreds of years, and there will definitely be no problems.

Back then, the evil spirits attacked Shangqing Palace because they wanted to destroy the magic measuring instrument.

This magic measuring instrument has condensed the efforts of countless people in my Shangqing Palace, so there cannot be any mistakes. "

"I'm just asking casually, Taoist priest, don't take it seriously."

Gu Xuanji smiled.

He also knew that there was nothing wrong with what Baiyue said.

In the past, the Shangqing Palace was also the top sect in the world. The evil spirits destroyed the Shangqing Palace and almost everyone was killed or injured. Only Baiyue and a few others escaped with the magic detector.

But those who escaped would most likely die in the hands of evil spirits.

The remaining Baiyue brought the magic measuring instrument and directly defected to Da Qin.

at last.

The imperial court specially built a star observatory, installed a magic detector, and then let Baiyue serve in the imperial court.

No need for suspects.

Employ people without doubt.

Gu Xuanji still believes in Baiyue.

"Taoist Priest will continue to stay here to observe the movement of the magic detector. If there is any abnormality, you can have someone notify me. As for the movement just now, I will send someone to find out."

Finished.

He turned and left the observatory.

The observatory sounds like a high platform, but it is actually a palace.

the difference is.

There is a layer of colored glaze above the palace, allowing you to see the outside world.

Since the word "stargazing" is taken from the word "stargazing", it is natural to be able to see the celestial phenomena.

The Shangqing Palace itself is extremely good at stargazing and divination, otherwise it would not have made something like a magic detector. In order to allow talents like Baiyue to play their role perfectly, Gu Xuanji specially built this place.

After Gu Xuanji left.

Baiyue looked at the magic detector in front of him and frowned.

"The capital is the lifeblood of the Great Qin. It has its own fate to suppress it. The demon is not strong enough and has no qualifications to enter the capital. Now that a demon below the Evil level has appeared, doesn't it mean that the fate of the Great Qin is declining!"

"Oh, this is troublesome"

The national fortune declined.

It shows that a dynasty is already in serious decline.

It flourishes and then declines.

These are the rules of the operation of heaven and earth, and no one can violate them.

Corresponding.

It depends on whether it is extremely peaceful.

But Baiyue is not sure whether Great Qin can achieve the goal of a prosperous future. After all, any dynasty that declines may be destroyed by others before it can regain its peak.

Now, even though he was deep in the palace, he knew everything about the attack between Da Zhou and the barbarians.

Coupled with the current decline in Great Qin's national fortunes, there is a reasonable explanation.

"I hope Great Qin can survive this disaster!"

Baiyue shook his head.

The Shangqing Palace has been destroyed, and he is now tied to Da Qin.

If Da Qin is destroyed, then his fate will not be easy either.

Only if Great Qin is safe and sound can there be hope of rebuilding the Shangqing Palace.

In the court hall.

Gu Xuanji summoned all the ministers.

Guan Zuo, who originally went to the Demon-Suppressing Division to ask for help, was also there at this time.

"Tell me, what exactly is going on?"

The Holy Emperor of Great Qin spoke calmly.

Hear the words.

Guan Zuo lowered his head and replied: "Your Majesty, someone came to the Yamen this morning to report a crime, saying that a demon appeared in Fengyun Village outside the capital, and one person died in the hands of the demon. However, he never thought that the person who reported the crime was actually possessed by the demon.

At the critical moment, the demon wanted to sneak attack Wei Chen, and was finally killed by Wei Chen.

After killing the evil spirits, Wei Chen immediately went to the Demon Suppression Division to ask for help. I believe that the people from the Demon Suppression Division have already accompanied the officials of the government to Fengyun Village to check the situation. It won't be long before there will be news back. "

Speaking of which.

Guan Zuo paused for a moment and then continued: "But at that time, the evil spirit failed to attack and escaped from the Yamen first. Although he was later killed by the ministers, several people also lost their lives in the hands of the evil spirit."

By the time he finished speaking, there was silence in the court for a long time.

Gu Xuanji looked at Dongfang Zhao: "There is an evil spirit entering the capital. Can the Demon Suppressing Department explain it?"

His expression was calm.

But the calmer it is, the greater the anger inside.

Dongfang Zhao, who had a calm demeanor in the past, was also feeling some pressure at this moment.

"Your Majesty, there is no trace of evil spirits. If they want to sneak in, the Demon Suppressing Division will not be able to intercept them 100%. Moreover, there has always been a suppression of national destiny in the capital, so evil spirits cannot easily enter the capital.

Now, a resentment-level monster can actually kill people openly in the capital.

I suspect that there is something wrong with the national destiny."

There is a problem with the national destiny!

After hearing these words, many ministers' expressions changed drastically.

National destiny is fundamental.

If there is a problem with the national destiny, then Da Qin will be in big trouble.

Gu Xuanji's expression did not change and he said calmly: "Over the years, there have been evils and disasters, and now there are hidden dangers from the Great Zhou Dynasty and the barbarians. It is normal for the national destiny to be somewhat turbulent, but I don't want this to be an excuse for the Demon Suppression Division.

I can forget about the evil attack and murder.

But I hope that the follow-up question will be taken seriously by the Demon Suppressing Division. The capital is the face of Great Qin. If the capital becomes a place where evil spirits are rampant, then how can we convince the people that we, Great Qin, can suppress evil spirits! "

"When I return, the entire city will be under martial law and we will never allow evil spirits to cause trouble!"

Dongfang Zhao bowed and saluted.

Gu Xuanji said: "This is best. In addition, this evil disaster may not have the intention to disturb the hearts of the people of our country. The evil attack on the government office this morning may be just a sign. The evil will make greater moves in the future.

Starting from today, the imperial guards will patrol the palace day and night, and they must not be negligent for even a moment.

In addition, the Demon Suppressing Division and the city's garrison patrol various places. If any evil spirit sneaks in, they must be killed immediately to avoid causing major turmoil.

This matter is not only the responsibility of the Demon Suppression Department, but also your responsibility.

As ministers of the imperial court, you should be loyal to the emperor and worry about the emperor. Whenever an evil spirit appears anywhere, you also need to assist the people of the Suppressing Demon Division to kill the evil spirit! "

A person who is qualified to stand on the throne.

Any one of them has considerable strength.

These are troubled times.

If a dignified official of the imperial court does not have any strength at all, then he can kill as many demons as he wants without any problems.

Wait until the ancient mystery is finished.

All the ministers bowed to receive orders: "I obey the order!"

"Don't cause a big commotion today. Anyone who spreads rumors at this time will be thrown into jail. Those who commit serious crimes will be shot without mercy!"

Gu Xuanji gave another order.

There are evil spirits killing people in the capital, which will definitely cause great commotion.

What the court has to do is to completely suppress this influence.

"yes!"

All ministers took orders.

Immediately.

Just retreated in an orderly manner.
