Collapse of Iron: The Immortal Boat Life of the Envoy of the Order of Fertility

Although Jing Yuan could make the decision to a large extent on whether Lu Qing would be appointed as the director of the Luofu Dan Ding Division, Luofu was not his place to have the final say after all, and the replacement of the six directors still needed to go through formal procedures.

Otherwise, those who are watching him might come and report him again.

However, Jing Yuan ate a lot of that kind of thing, so it had no effect at all. But he was a general after all, so he still needed to follow the rules.

The administrative efficiency of Luofu Xianzhou is still very high in the sense of time of the Xianzhou people. It still takes several months for a proposal to be approved and implemented, especially such an important proposal involving power departments.

This is not procrastination, but rather a consideration for the people of Luofu. Liu Si is in charge of a giant planetary ship carrying hundreds of billions of people. Any mistake may lead to irreversible consequences.

If it weren't for the fact that Lu Qing's identity and ability as the Envoy of Fertility were really suitable for the position of Si Ding, Jing Yuan would not have handed over this position to Lu Qing so easily.

As for the possibility that Lan Qing no longer wants to be Si Ding after handling the matter, it is not important. The position of Si Ding in the Dan Ding Department has been vacant for twenty years, and there has not been any major chaos, right?

If you don't want to do it, then don't do it. Maybe those dragon masters who have nothing to do with this matter will be happy.

Back then, Si Ding was sent out of Luofu on some pretexts because he failed in the game and struggle with the dragon masters. It was said to be exile, but in fact it was protection.

The problem with Master Long has not been going on for just one or two days, and there has been no major chaos in Luofu. If it weren't for the godsend opportunity of Qingque's accident, the affairs of the Danding Division could have been handled slowly and there would have been no need to rush.

He understood Luofu's administrative efficiency, but he didn't want to wait at all.

Jing Yuan spread his hands. There was nothing he could do. The most he could do was to urge Lu Qing to take office as soon as possible.

However, it will take at least a few days, so there is no point in rushing.

"Oh, by the way, Jing Yuan, I want to make a request. When I take office, I will falsify my resume. My true identity can only be known to those who are entitled to know my identity. I need another identity in front of those dragon masters."

"Once they hear of the reputation of the Harvest Envoy, they will never think of ostracizing me. They will also keep their secret activities secret. If they do, it will be very troublesome to find the traces of those Dragon Masters."

"Well, that makes sense. People only show their truest side when they are not threatening. In that case, your fake identity must meet Si Ding's needs, but also not be too out of line to scare Master Long..." Jing Yuan nodded in agreement.

Lu Qing then said, "Qing Que has been dragged into a dispute. Although I don't know the reason, as a friend, I certainly can't just leave it alone. While waiting for Si Ding's appointment notice, I will also start investigating some things. At the very least, I have to find out why Qing Que was kidnapped."

"Nothing happens without a reason in this world. There must be a reason why she was targeted. And this reason can't be because of Qingque herself. It must be because of someone or something related to Qingque..."

As Qing Qing analyzed this, she completely ignored Jing Yuan's strange expression. She lazily lay on the bed and yawned. Jing Yuan said, "Most of the things that the Dan Ding Division studies are related to fertility. Think about it, who among Qing Que's acquaintances has the greatest connection to fertility?"

Lu Qing pointed at himself, tilted his head and looked at Jing Yuan with a little confusion: "Me? But those dragon masters should not have the right to know my identity?" Lu Qing, who was confused by the situation, had not yet realized the crux of the problem.

"The actions taken unconsciously may make the person unaware, or even completely indifferent. However, for ordinary people, this is an opportunity that can only be encountered once."

"Do you know something?"

It’s not that Qing doesn’t trust Jingyuan, it’s mainly because Jingyuan can be regarded as a very wise and almost magical person in the plot, and everything he says and does is very guiding.

However, Qingqing did not really doubt Jingyuan, he just said it casually.

"No." Jing Yuan spread his hands again. "Don't misunderstand, Qingqing, I'm just analyzing the reasonable possibilities for you. You know that among the people Qingque knows, you are the one who is most associated with abundance. And those dragon masters are unaware of your identity as an envoy. In their perception, you are just an ordinary person."

"In that case, the logic that Qingque was implicated because of your identity doesn't make sense. Then there is another possibility. She was implicated because of your unconscious behavior."

Jing Yuan's analysis was not based on blind guesswork. There was a precedent of Qing leaking power unconsciously.

The abundant life force that leaked out when Rangqing was in seclusion and meditating caused quite a stir in Luofu.

Lu Qing thought about it, but still didn't notice it.

Seeing Lu Qing's confusion, Jing Yuan kindly reminded her, "Then go look at the places you've been to recently in Luofu. It might help you recall."

"Changle Tian?" Thinking back to where he and Qingque stayed today, the only possibility that he could have leaked his power unconsciously was the plants affected by his mood. Could it be related to that thing?

But would anyone really treasure such a shabby thing? The pure air he exhaled contained more abundant energy than that thing.

Everything that has been touched by the power of purity is an extension of him, and he can confirm its condition through conscious perception.

However, there were many things that were contaminated by his abundant power, but it was difficult for him to identify the withered plants in Chang Letian because they were contaminated with too little energy.

Go there yourself, you might find something.

Thinking of this, Lu Qing no longer had the idea of bothering Jing Yuan any further. After apologizing, Lu Qing left the Shen Ce Mansion.

……

"Brothers, be quick. Even though it's late at night and there won't be many people around, there are bound to be some accidents."

These are five masked men in night clothes. The leader is giving orders to his subordinates.

The younger brothers were obviously well-trained. After hearing the orders, they carried out the work of digging plants in an orderly manner.

It is now the fourth watch in the middle of the night. Changle Heaven is already deserted, but the men in black are still trying to reduce the noise of their digging.

"I really don't understand why the lord wants us to come at this time just to replace a few withered plants. Wouldn't it be possible to just pretend to be from the Land and Resources Bureau and come and replace the plants early in the morning?"

"Don't be so nosy. The adults must have their reasons for asking us to do this. We just need to take the money. What else do you want to do?"

"Um, excuse me for asking, who is this 'sir' you are talking about?" A sinister voice sounded behind the leading man in black. Before this, he had not noticed even the slightest movement.

This time, he was frightened and had some physical stress, but his long working experience forced him to hold it back.

"Run!" The men in black dropped the work at hand and chose to escape without any hesitation. The person who could approach them quietly must not be an ordinary person. What's more, this is Changletian, not an uninhabited wasteland.

If a conflict occurs, the Land Scale and Measurement Bureau personnel on duty at night will definitely rush over and arrest them as soon as possible. If their identities are exposed at that time, they will be in trouble.

Except for the black-clad leader who was caught by Qing, the rest of the brothers evacuated in four directions: east, south, west and north. When they evacuated, they did not forget to tear off a few dead branches and carry them with them.

Lu Qing was not in a hurry. The dead branches carried by these people had been marked by him. Even if they left Luofu, he would be able to track and lock them in the first place. There was no possibility of losing them at all.

"Oh, all your men have left, and you are the only one left here. Come with me..." The light voice of Lan Qing made the heart of the person whose shoulder was pressed by him beat faster. Even though he did not feel any murderous intent, the sense of crisis lingering in his heart made him unable to think of resisting.

The only thing left in my heart is despair and unspeakable fear.

"You don't look like a death warrior, do you? You won't seek death, will you? Of course, even if you do, I have a way to save you~"

"My Lord...I am only here to replace the withered greenery."

"...You're kidding me, if they really come to replace the greenery, will you run away?"

"Well, sir... we're just being kind and replacing the greenery. That's not a crime, right? As for dressing like this, it's just to do a good deed without leaving a name. We're escaping simply to avoid being discovered. The Xianzhou network is so advanced..."

"..." Lu Qing was speechless after hearing this. He had come up with such outrageous words just to deceive him. He looked at the trembling guy and said, "Don't be afraid. You really haven't committed any crime. Luofu's laws really can't control you..."

The man in black who was caught by Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief.

"but……"

My heart was in my throat again.

"You attacked the top officials of the Sixth Division of Luofu Xianzhou in the middle of the night. There were five of you and it was a premeditated gang crime." Lu Qing smiled cunningly, and some bad thoughts emerged in his mind. He was ready to fabricate some crimes for these guys.

"what?"

No, buddy, we attacked you, are you kidding? Are you hurt? Are the top management so dark? Will the Land and Investment Division listen to your nonsense?

Lu Qing didn't plan to be too harsh on these people. After all, they were just there to exchange plants, so he just had to arrest them.

The man in black raised his hands uncontrollably, with his palms spread upwards, and then an arm appeared on top, with blood dripping from it.

The man in black's pupils shrank and he was so scared that he almost dropped his arm to the ground.

"Now you're really attacking."

Rangqing grinned, with the corners of his mouth curling up uncontrollably.

Just because you have the ability, you can do whatever you want? Huh?

How could someone do such a thing? The man in black's worldview was about to be blown away. In his cognition, this matter was incomprehensible.

Since you have such ability, why do you still play the law with me? Are you bored?

You're being reasonable, aren't you? You're just framing people.

You're being unreasonable, aren't you? You actually framed me and didn't kill me outright. You're really... I'm crying my eyes out.

"...Brother, I have old people above me and young children below me. I don't want to live in the prison for hundreds of years?" Although he was framed by the person behind the scenes, the Diheng Division... No, this kind of vicious incident may be under the jurisdiction of the Ten Kings Division. With his arm here, he has no way to defend himself.

"Tell me your superiors, and I will let you go and not kill you."

"Really? Big Brother?"

"You haven't done anything bad, why would I kill you? Of course, if you don't tell me, then you've done something bad."

"……I said."

"Someone kidnapped Qingque, an employee of the Taibu Division, this afternoon. Does this have anything to do with you?"

"Qingque? The one with the improved Qiongyu card? Why would we kidnap her? We have rules in our business and we will never attack people from Xianzhou."

Lu Qing could be sure that this person was not lying, so Qingque’s kidnapping had nothing to do with this group of people.

"Second question, who is your immediate boss?"

"I don't know. I was hired."

"You don't know? I heard you talking, and you were calling me 'sir'. Why would you call the person who hired you 'sir' for no reason?"

"Industry rules, secret language. We on Xianzhou have always been particular about retro things, so those of us who do bounties call those who issue tasks "sirs." Wearing night clothes is also to make us look more professional."

Lu Qing was a little confused for a moment, but through perception, he knew that this person was not lying.

After thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was true. Under the premise that a subordinate had been killed, the risk of being exposed by letting a confidant do the job was indeed too great. If he thought about it this way, it would be much more reasonable to hire someone else to do it.

"Who hired you?"

"I know that, but the person who hired me was also hired."

"how do you know?"

"We've been working together for a long time and have figured it out. We're both professionals in this business, so we've gotten to know each other over time."

"Can you find it by looking further down?"

"They shouldn't be able to find out, right? The person who hired me just kept hiring me because it was convenient... The person who hired him wouldn't be that lazy, right?"

"..."

"Third question, do you know what these withered green plants are used for?"

"I don't know. The higher-ups said it was very important and told us to take it to a designated place and someone would come to hand it over."

"The fourth question..."

Lu Qing asked for a long time but couldn't get any useful information out of him. After asking almost all the questions, he just let go of the man and left.

He didn't really intend to let these people go, because someone would come and take them away tomorrow.

They have been completely imbued with the scent of abundance. Let Jingyuan send someone to deal with them tomorrow.

Lu Qing didn't do anything else. Don't worry about those dead branches for now. They will eventually fall into the hands of the person behind the scenes. Just wait for a while.

"He really survived? This guy is pretty good." The man in black smiled. He had thought that after working as a bounty hunter with his brothers for so long, one day he would lose his life because of this job.

But I never thought that I would almost lose my life because of such a thing. It turns out that tasks that look simple but have high rewards should not be accepted.

"Brother, I'm leaving. I'm really leaving."

“He’s really gone!”

The man in black shouted.

"Damn it, who is making so much noise in the middle of the night? Do you want to live?"

"..."
