The ancients watched me play the Starry Sky Railway

"That doesn't make sense." Qingque scratched his head, looking confused. "I've been demoted to managing the library. What else does she want?"

"Even after being demoted, he's still so happy. What a state of mind..."

Bai Juyi, who had just been demoted and felt depressed, could not help but fall into deep thought.

He wondered if he was too easily mentally exhausted.

Look at his mental state!

What's wrong with being demoted? Being demoted doesn't stop me from playing cards!

Do you want to find a hobby for yourself?

Refuse to be demoted and waste internal energy, start with me!

Qingque quickly put the inexplicable locked door behind her: "Don't panic! Taibusi has more than one door. I know a place for emergency entry and exit."

"The others followed Qingque to the side gate of the Taipusi."

"I see you're familiar with this place. You must have come here often during your free time, right?" March Seven teased.

Qingque said without disguising anything: "Young lady, you have a sharp eye. Those who work at the Taibusi call this gate the Xiaoyao Gate. When we have nothing to do, we often escape from here and spend a few hours outside freely."

"How many hours?" Sanyueqi's eyes widened. Doesn't that mean that except for clocking in and out, the whole time was spent out playing?"

"What a wonderful day this is." Liu Chan couldn't help but reveal a look of longing.

He also wanted to play all day except for attending court!

It would be best if you don’t even have to go to court and just leave everything to the prime minister.

"Your Majesty?" Zhuge Liang frowned and couldn't help but admonish: "The Shu region is now in a state of decline. You must not indulge in pleasure. When..."

Zhuge Liang's voice seemed to turn into Buddhist music, lingering in Liu Chan's mind. He was like Sun Wukong who was put under the tight cursing by Tang Monk.

"Prime Minister, please stop thinking about it. I understand." Liu Chan wanted to cry but had no tears. Couldn't he just play with crickets all his life?

I really want to work at the Taibu Division in Luofu Fairy Boat.

I am so happy here that I don’t miss home!

"...Alas." Zhuge Liang stopped reading and just sighed.

In his opinion, Liu Chan was not a very stupid person. As long as he worked hard, he could easily become a wise ruler in a peaceful era.

But Liu Chan just refused to work hard!

Perhaps, some people can only truly grow up after losing all the elders who have helped them.

"A few people entered the door, and before they took a few steps, they saw a demonic monster."

Sanyueqi spread her hands and said, "Are you surprised? I'm not surprised at all."

"Even Taipusi has been taken over by these monsters? Why is Luofu plagued by disasters everywhere? It's infiltrated by monsters, just like that fishing net, full of holes."

Huo Qubing couldn't help but complain.

He couldn't imagine what the entire Han territory would be like if it was filled with barbarians.

(Jia Nanfeng, Yang Jun: We'll arrange it for you right away!)

"After all, the so-called Medicine King Secret has been planned for thousands of years. Adding the star core, it's not surprising that it has reached this level."

"But... well, I'm afraid both of them are just pawns of the real mastermind."

"I wonder what kind of person has the guts to attack Luo Fu, who has the support of a Star God?"

As Liu Che spoke, he couldn't help but be very curious about the mastermind behind the scenes.

The Xianzhou Alliance has the Star God as its backer, and the mastermind behind this actually dares to do this... I guess he also has the Star God as his backer!

I just don’t know which one it is?

"There are so many powerful people here. A mere demonic body can't stop them. They demolished it in no time."

"Further ahead, a huge device floating in the air came into view."

"In front of us is the large-scale jade divination array that our Taibu Division is so proud of—the Qiongguan Array," Qingque explained to the others.

"I've heard people mention the word 'Jade Omen' from time to time along the way. Miss Qingque, what is Jade Omen?" Walter was quite curious about it.

"'A jade omen...' that's what a jade omen is." Qingque said with a helpless smile, "Mr. Yang asked a good question, and I can't answer it right away. Let me think about it..."

"Walter and the others were not in a hurry. They just looked at the huge Qiongguan formation in the distance in amazement."

"That device is simply too large."

"How come everything on Luofu can fly? It's fine if the Star Raft can fly, but how can this Qiongguan Formation, which is so big, also fly?"

Looking at the huge Qiongguan Formation floating in the air, Wu Zetian felt envious.

She claimed to be the reincarnation of Maitreya Buddha. In order to show her majesty, she specially built a paradise next to the Mingtang, which was 86 meters high!

(Also known as the Temple of Heaven.)

Later, this paradise burned down, and she ordered people to build a new one, which was even taller, at 88.8 meters!

(During the Tang Dynasty, buildings over 80 meters high were built. This is simply unimaginable! When Li Hongzhang first visited Amei, the skyscraper that frightened him was only about 20 stories high, 60 to 70 meters high.)

(Unfortunately, the later rebuilt one was also burned down twice during the An-Shi Rebellion, and was ultimately completely destroyed, reduced to scorched earth and ruins. Only the foundation of the Paradise remains, as discovered by modern archaeologists. Judging from the foundation, the Paradise could indeed have been built to more than 80 meters.)

Every time she stood on that towering heaven, she felt as if she were really the reincarnation of Buddha, overlooking the vast human world from high in the sky.

That sense of accomplishment, that feeling of being superior, is hard for ordinary people to imagine!

But now, she felt that her paradise was no longer fragrant.

What does it matter how high you build? No matter how high you build, you are still just standing on the ground!

If only her paradise could float in the sky like this Qiongguan Formation...

Wu Zetian's eyes gradually became blurred. Standing in such a paradise, perhaps she was really the Buddha?

However, there was one thing she might not have considered…she couldn't fly.

If heaven really took off, she would be stunned.

Wu Zetian: I haven’t gotten on the bus yet! I haven’t gotten on the bus yet!

"Oh, I remember now... Just like carving a seal, the craftsmen of the Xianzhou Craftsmanship Division would engrave trillions of talismans, invisible to the naked eye, within the jade lattice. They would then embed them into various mechanisms as needed, allowing them to operate according to their designed intentions."

"Some jade signs are small enough to be stored in bracelets or jewelry. Larger ones are placed in formations to deduce divination and predict the future."

"Just like this Qiongguan formation, no matter the evolution of the laws of nature or the changes in the human world, as long as there is sufficient information, it can answer any question."

"It is said that the talismans and principles within them were learned from the 'Panzhi Tianjun', the Venerable Boshi. Their profound depths are so profound that only the Taibu in the entire Taibu Division can truly comprehend them."

"Qingque finally remembered this passage from some book and memorized it like a book."
