Wanbao Lady

Chapter 395 Longzhou Specialties

Yongzhou Prefecture.

The Demon-Suppressing Division.

"Commander, this is today's latest monitoring assessment."

A third-rank detective stepped forward quickly and respectfully handed a jade talisman with a Xiezhi pattern engraved on it to the person above.

The person opposite was wearing a purple Xiezhi official robe, and looked to be in his seventies or eighties. His white hair was neatly tied on top of his head, and his eyes were dark.

The man briefly took a break from his busy official duties, took the jade talisman, and then scanned it with his spiritual sense.

His tired eyes suddenly opened.

The jade talisman records the monitoring and assessment of the degree of spiritual disorder in various prefectures and counties in Yongzhou, which are divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D.

Except for a very small number of bright red "A" grade ratings, the vast majority of prefectures and counties fell into the "B" and "C" ratings.

There is only one exception, which is classified as "D" grade and has an inconspicuous, inky black color.

But in today's special period, this inconspicuous thing is the most eye-catching.

"Hmm? How come the spiritual energy disorder in the entire Mengze Mansion has been calmed down?"

The commander of Yongzhou Demon Suppression Division said in amazement.

Before today, the best situation in the entire Yongzhou was "C" level, which meant that although the disorder of spiritual energy had an impact, it was not too big.

If he remembered correctly, yesterday's assessment of the degree of spiritual disorder in Mengze Mansion showed that most areas, especially the Tulu Prairie, should be rated "B" level, right?

Why did it drop so suddenly?

Although the source has not been resolved, this sudden drop will only be temporary and will surely rise again over time.

But, this already explains some problems.

If there is any variable...

He thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Did the people from the Immortal Affairs Department take people to Mengze Mansion?"

The detective below nodded respectfully, "Yes, Lord Shi from Mengze Mansion sent a message saying that at 3 p.m. today, people from the Immortal Affairs Department picked up people from Yudu Mountain in Qingzhou. It was raining heavily at that time, and the people from Yudu Mountain used the magic weapons in their hands to make the clouds and rain disappear. The disordered spiritual energy was calmed down because of them."

The old man nodded.

But the detective below said, "Master Shi also said that today the people from Yudu Mountain and the disciples of Baicao Sect came to visit us specially, saying that there might be some clues about the 'Spiritual Cold Plague'."

Hearing this, the old man immediately stood up from his seat, "Are you serious? Have you developed a cure for the epidemic?"

"Those people said that they were not sure whether it would work. They just felt that this plague was somewhat similar to a case recorded in an ancient book of Baicaomen. If they wanted to try to cure the plague, they were missing a magical medicine."

As he spoke, the young detective pulled out a cylindrical scroll from his waist and presented it respectfully with both hands.

"This was just sent over from Mengze Mansion. Please take a look, sir."

The old man immediately took the scroll and opened it.

There was a picture of a magical medicine painted on it.

The magical medicine only has two leaves, one red and one blue, with serrated edges, which is very easy to recognize.

There was a message written on the edge of the scroll.

"Double rhombus?"

A medium-grade spiritual herb, suspected to grow in the northern barbarian land?

Seeing this message, the old man was stunned.

It would be fine if it were normal, but now the two sides on the border are on the verge of a war. Not to mention interacting with each other, even the smugglers can only shake their heads and watch.

Although the imperial court has issued a call for talents and summoned a large number of monks to help, not all monks are doctors. There are too many people infected with the disease, and they will infect each other over time. Even if the monks' help can stabilize the situation for a while, if a prescription is not developed soon, it will eventually lead to disaster.

Thinking of this, the old man's hair turned even whiter with worry.

Although his hair has turned white.

"Pass the order down. Since there are already monks from other states coming to support us, let each prefecture dispatch personnel to search for this pair of rhombuses!"

After all, Yongzhou borders various tribes of the northern barbarians, and there have been various material exchanges between the official and civilian levels.

Therefore, this magical herb must exist in Yongzhou! It's just a matter of quantity.

As long as we find some and develop them into medicines that are proven to be effective, we will continue to search for them with all our strength!

"Yes!"

The young detective was about to go down, but was suddenly stopped by his superior.

"and many more!"

However, the old man's eyes were gloomy and unclear, "This matter must not be made public! Especially, the people of Qingyuan League must not know about it."

Hearing this, the young detective glanced at his superior and bowed respectfully: "Yes!"

-

That night.

The lights in the inn were bright.

The three demons and the other Baicao disciples gathered around a large table, watching as each of the Baicao disciples took out plates of raw food and various fruits from their space bags like magic, and even took out a strange boiler that was split in half in the middle. They were stunned.

I saw one of the disciples adding water into the boiler skillfully, and the other disciple threw something like a stone into the bottom of the boiler, and hot flames suddenly came out from under the boiler.

After a while, when the water boiled, another disciple placed two "bricks", one red and one white, on the left and right sides of the strange boiler, and steam rose.

The whole process was completed in one go and with great skill.

Taking advantage of the gap before the water boiled, the disciples of Baicao Sect talked enthusiastically and introduced the dishes on the table.

"This is tripe, a part of the cow that is so delicious!"

The three demons looked over immediately.

I don't think about whether it tastes good or not, but...

Fortunately, the queen sent the three of them here. If she had sent Niu Da and Niu Er,

"Sorry, the three of us are all vegetarians."

Kong Qin apologized.

Upon hearing this, the round-faced female cultivator's eyes widened.

"Oh, so that's a shame."

However, while she said this, her hands quickly pulled the tripe and various meats in front of the three monsters in front of herself and others without any hesitation.

Then he replaced the plates of vegetarian dishes.

"This is called Houttuynia cordata, and it's a specialty of Longzhou! It's delicious, you guys can try it later!"

"The water is boiling!" a male disciple shouted.

The eyes of all the Baicao Sect disciples suddenly lit up and their index fingers grew excited.

Shangguan Xi picked up a piece of green vegetable with chopsticks and dipped it in the soup pot, demonstrating how to eat it. Then she said with expectation: "You try it."

Hearing this, the three demons picked up the grass-root-like thing, known as "Longzhou specialty", with chopsticks, carefully stirred it into the pot, and then put it into their mouths and chewed.

Hard to swallow.

"It's really... a special flavor!" Kong Qin almost squeezed out these words from between her teeth, trying hard to maintain her expression.

Looking at the two companions beside him, their faces were also livid.

To make up for her embarrassment, she quickly said, "Speaking of which, we went to the Demon Suppression Division this afternoon to look for the local leader. I wonder when they will be able to find the Double Diamond Grass."

"Yes, yes. It's really strange. Why do you ask us to keep this matter secret and not tell anyone for the time being?" The round-faced female cultivator said casually while eating heartily.

Hearing this, Bai Jing suddenly realized, "Maybe... they are afraid that this matter will be leaked to the Northern Barbarians!"

If the prescription that Shangguan Xi had seen was really effective, and there was really a lack of the double diamond grass from the Northern Barbarians, and this matter was known to the Northern Barbarians, the consequences could be imagined!
