Looking at the concentrated green crystal in his palm, Li Daoyi was a little confused.
"What the hell is this?"
"Scan the system." Li Daoyi said hurriedly.
"Scan identification costs one million points."
Li Daoyi rolled his eyes when he heard this.
"One million? Working with me for a day in vain? What the hell is this? Is the appraisal fee the same as the God of War Art?" Li Daoyi was a little shocked.
"Daoyi, what is this?" At this time, Dongfang Bubai and Xiao Longnu also came over. The two of them came closer to look at this strange fluorescent stone.
"I don't know either." Li Dao replied. He had not yet decided whether to conduct an appraisal.
"Boom..."
Suddenly the ground shook. Qilin turned around and stuck his head down. Mengmeng jumped on Li Daoyi's head.
"Eh?"
I saw the little guy tilting his head, blinking his eyes and looking at the stone, lost in thought.
"What? Do you know her?" Li Daoyi stretched out his left hand and hugged Mengmeng down.
"Well..." Mengmeng bit her finger, as if thinking about something.
Suddenly, the little guy's eyes lit up and he said happily.
"I know, this is the space stone."
"Space stone..." Li Dao was stunned for a moment. Then he looked at Mengmeng in confusion, how did this guy know.
"Mengmeng, how did you know?" Long Er asked.
"Whoosh..."
"Kacha..."
"Bah chirp, bah chirp..."
In the flash of lightning, Li Daoyi's right hand was empty, the stone had disappeared, and the crisp sound of cracking and chewing was immediately heard in his ears.
"Ah, Mengmeng, you can't eat it." Long Er exclaimed.
"Wow..." Li Daoyi also shouted.
"Click..."
"Bah chirp, bah chirp..."
I saw the little girl's round hands holding the green stone and chewing it. It felt like eating biscuits.
"It's delicious..." Mengmeng said.
Li Daoyi swallowed, and suddenly his heart felt cold.
"The appraisal fee is only one million, so this thing is worth at least ten million, and you just eat it like this?" Li Daoyi looked helpless at this time.
But soon he raised the little girl to him with both hands and looked at her carefully.
"Huh...? Hey, hey, hey." Mengmeng looked at Li Daoyi doubtfully, but her little mouth still kept eating.
"She's fine." After observing for a while, Li Daoyi breathed a sigh of relief after Mengmeng ate all the stones and didn't notice anything strange about her body.
Dongfang Bubai hugged Mengmeng over, stretched out his hand and patted her little buttocks a few times.
"Why are you so naughty? What should I do if I have a bad stomach?"
"Mengmeng, please tell me if you want to eat from now on." The two women said slightly reproachfully.
"Hehe, I can't control it. This thing seems to be very tempting to me." Mengmeng said with a playful smile.
Although Li Daoyi felt a little distressed, this thing was not originally the purpose of his coming here. It was an unexpected gain, and now it is gone.
But he became more and more curious about Mengmeng's identity. Although he had never touched the space stone, he also knew that space and time were the top rules in all the worlds and could not be touched easily. However, Mengmeng could actually ignore the rules and take over the general. After eating it, you can imagine how exaggerated this child is.
"Hmm... Brother Taoist, I'm sleepy." Suddenly Mengmeng rubbed her eyes, and then lay in Dongfang Bubai's arms to sleep.
"Okay, let's go out." Li Dao nodded.
"What should I do with this big guy?" Long Er asked.
Li Daoyi looked at the behemoth behind him, Qilin.
"This..." He also became troubled.
"Xiao Hei, become smaller." At this time, a cute voice came.
"Ho ho ho..."
Qilin roared a few times.
I saw bursts of dark green light emitting from its body, and its body began to shrink slowly.
"Hey, why did you forget this?" Li Daoyi said. Even Niu Er can grow up or down at will, and so can Qilin.
Gradually the light disappeared, and a unicorn about the size of a piglet appeared in front of him. It was very cute and cute, and it looked a little cute. The two horns on its head had also disappeared and turned into two protrusions.
"so small."
Long Er bent down and picked up Qilin.
Li Daoyi reached out and touched Qilin, and the little guy narrowed his eyes in comfort.
"Hahaha, interesting, let's go."
After speaking, Li Dao waved his hands one by one, and several people flew out along the passage they came from. However, what they didn't know was that after they left the War Temple space, the relief sculptures that had originally turned into powder gathered together again. Just like before, it was suspended in mid-air.
Soon, everyone left the Jingyan Palace, and Li Dao waved his hands one by one to return the huge stone to its place.
A big green cow was grazing leisurely not far away. After seeing a few people, it slowly walked over.
"Niu Er, I asked you to wait impatiently." Li Daoyi said with a smile.
"Woooo...".
At this time, the little Qilin in Xiao Longnu's arms suddenly made a sound.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Longnu stroked it gently.
I saw Qilin starting to struggle and shouting non-stop.
Then Qilin broke away from Long'er's arms and jumped to the ground.
Qilin did not recover its original form, but walked toward Qingniu with small steps. Two guys, one big and one small, stopped not far away.
"Is everything going to be okay?" Dongfang Bubai said.
Li Daoyi didn't answer, he was also curious about what would happen.
"Moo..."
Qingniu called to Qilin.
I saw Qilin's small body and forelimbs suddenly kneeling down, with its butt raised high.
"Woooo..." Qilin called out to Niu Er several times.
"Surrender..." This word flashed in Li Daoyi's mind.
Qingniu lowered his head, sniffed Qilin's body, rubbed his chin, and then nodded to Qilin.
"Woo..." Qilin stood up happily, and then jumped around and ran around Niu Er, looking very happy.
"What is this?" Li Daoyi looked confused.
"Mengmeng is asleep." Dongfang Bubai whispered at this time.
Li Dao took a look, and sure enough, the little girl was sleeping soundly with her fingers in her mouth, looking very cute and well-behaved.
"Maybe it has something to do with that stone." Considering that Mengmeng had experienced similar situations before, Li Daoyi was mentally prepared.
Several people flew to the back of the cow. Qilin jumped on top of the cow's head and lay down obediently.
"Moo..."
Suddenly a gust of wind blew around, and Qingniu's huge body disappeared instantly.
Daxing City, the capital of the Sui Dynasty.
Yang Guang has been back in Beijing for a few days. The entire imperial court has been very busy these days. People in the capital have spread the news that the emperor is about to conquer Goguryeo in person. At this time, supplies are constantly being shipped from all over the country through canals. Beijing.
In the court, the ministers were discussing something enthusiastically at this time.
"Devil's Gate? No, how can we count on them when marching and fighting? This old minister objects to this."
"It's a good thing that the Demon Sect intends to surrender to the imperial court. What's more, these Jianghu people have a big role. We shouldn't refuse. Besides, the late emperor also cooperated with the Demon Sect when he was still alive."
"The Jianghu people are unruly and unruly. Once trouble occurs, it will be difficult for the court to suppress it."
Several ministers were arguing with each other, and the content was related to the Demon Sect.
It turns out that Shi Zhixuan told Zhu Yuyan to let her lead the Demon Sect to help attack Goguryeo. After the last battle in Luoyang, the entire Demon Sect is now dominated by the Yinkui family. Zhu Yuyan is determined to integrate the Demon Sect and restore it to its former glory, and to help The imperial court is a perfect opportunity. On the one hand, it can eradicate dissidents, and on the other hand, it can strengthen its own strength and get closer to the imperial court.
"quiet."
When Yang Guang's voice came, everyone quickly stopped arguing and looked in the direction of the dragon chair.
"Zhennan Gong, Pei Aiqing, what do you two think about the Demon Sect?" Yang Guang asked.
Song Que and Pei Ju stood at the forefront of the civil and military ministers respectively. Even Yu Wenhuaji could only stand at the back obediently. At this time, he already knew Pei Ju's true identity and did not dare to be disrespectful at all. Of course, Yang Guang also knew about it. He did not blame Shi Zhixuan for this, and still allowed him to walk in the court as Pei Ju.
"Your Majesty, the Demon Sect can be used, but it still needs to be agreed upon. After all, national affairs are no bigger than Jianghu, and there is no room for sloppiness." Song Que came out and said, looking at Pei Ju who was standing aside.
"What Zhennan Gong said is reasonable. I am willing to personally supervise the Demon Sect." Pei Ju said with cupped hands.
Yang Guang nodded with satisfaction, and then his eyes fell on a Taishi chair in front of the court officials. Different from the standing ministers, there was an old man with gray hair and a majestic face sitting on the Taishi chair. His eyes were tight. He closed his eyes and seemed not to care about what everyone was talking about just now.
"Uncle Emperor, do you have anything else to add?" Yang Guang bowed his body and asked with respect.
This person is none other than the patron king Yang Lin.
Yang Lin opened his eyes slightly, with a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes.
"What you both said makes sense, but I have something to ask Your Majesty."
"Uncle, please ask."
Yang Guang stood up quickly at this time, slowly walked down the steps and came to Yang Lin's side.
"Money, marching and fighting are money. Your Majesty has been building canals and opening up officialdoms these years. How much money does the court still have? The battle in Goguryeo is enough, what next? The court still has many places to use troops. If there is another natural disaster or man-made disaster , The local government will also reach out to the court to ask for money, has your Majesty ever thought about it?" Yang Lin said slightly.
"This..." Yang Guang was stunned for a moment. He had naturally thought about money, but he didn't think so far.
Song Que and Pei Ju looked at each other, and their eyes looked at Yang Lin with a hint of respect. He was worthy of being the king of patrons. Everything he thought was extraordinary and far-sighted.
"The rainy season is about to begin in Henan, and the Yellow River may flood again. Where will the money come from to treat it? If left alone, it will definitely lead to a civil uprising. Your Majesty should not just focus on the war in Goguryeo, but also on other things. You have to think more," Yang Lin said in a serious tone.
Yang Guang stood aside like a child, nodding his head, but he didn't think about it so much. Recently, all his eyes were on the war against Goguryeo.
"Your Majesty, my nephew must consider it seriously, but this money." Yang Guang also frowned as he spoke.
"Your Majesty, why don't you collect it from the nobles?" At this time, a minister stood up and said.
"No..."
"Absolutely not."
At one time, almost half of the ministers present came out to oppose.
