Bengtie, sandbox development, how did they run out!

By the way, today is the day for a business trip to Luofu. Lord Taibu instructed us yesterday that we should leave at 10 o'clock.

So it should be okay if I go there at 10 o'clock, right?

I really don’t know what kind of work is waiting for me in Luofu. I hope it’s not that tiring. It would be even better if I can take some time to relax and play a few more rounds of cards!

It's a pity that I'm going on this business trip with the Grand Secretary. I have to spend a lot of time and effort to slack off under her nose...

Chapter 162 The Darkest Day of Fu Xuan's Life (5K)

Qingque calculated the time, holding the mobile phone in his left hand and happily watching the short videos of Xianzhou, and did not forget to like a new anchor who was doing live broadcasts in Luofu. With the chopsticks in his right hand, he took a bite of red oil beef offal and a bite of tapir roll. The combination of spicy and sweet tastes was so delicious.

After slowly watching dozens of short videos, the beef offal in the bowl was empty and the tapir rolls were also eaten up. Qingque then stood up and rubbed his belly with a full stomach.

"Oh, this is so comfortable! It turns out that the best breakfasts are those made during the busy weekdays~"

Qingque stretched, picked up his phone and looked at the time. It was nine fifty, 10 minutes left until the agreed time of ten o'clock.

At this time, those who should go to work have already arrived at the company, and those who should go to school have already arrived at school, so the streets are much emptier than before.

She walked to the side of the road, hailed a star chariot, got into her car, and opened the communication software for work on her mobile phone.

After deftly crossing out the several "?"s from Fu Xuan's prompting in the unread message list, Qingque cleared his throat, pretending to gasp for breath, and opened his voice breathlessly:

"Master Fu, Master Fu Xuan, Haas, Haas, I, I am not, Haas, I am not late on purpose! When I came, I was trying to help an old lady cross the road..."

In fact, Qingque knew that Fu Xuan could see that she was lying. As the great Grand Fortune Teller, he could deduce the heaven and earth and see through them like seeing through fire. How could she not see through her little tricks?

She also knew that Fu Xuan knew that he knew she could tell that she was lying, but Qingque still brought this ridiculous lie to the table.

After all, you are late, so you always have to give your leader a reasonable reason.

It's better to lie than to say something like, "Yes, I was late on purpose because the beef offal chopped in red oil was so delicious."

As a subordinate, you have to give your leader a way out!

Just one minute before 10 o'clock in the morning, Qingque successfully entered Taibusi and hurriedly punched in.

Then she pretended to be out of breath and ran to Fu Xuan's office. She didn't care about workplace etiquette and pushed the door open directly.

"I'm late, I'm late, Master Fu, Master Fu Xuan, I'm late—Oops!!"

Qingque was not careful, and his left foot tripped over his right foot, and he fell flat on his face in front of Fu Xuan!

With a "plop" sound, Xiao Que'er's small body slid a long distance, and her small chest, which was used as a brake, looked painful. What was even more amazing was that a bunch of mahjong jumped out of her pocket, and one of them fell right on Fu Xuan's head.

A nice sound of “Duang” means a good start.

Qingque mechanically raised his head and forced an awkward smile towards Fu Xuan who was standing nearby:

"Um, Master Fu Xuan, I, I didn't mean it..."

Fu Xuan clasped her hands in front of her chest, her golden eyes full of helplessness. The sunlight shone on her through the window lattice. Her long, straight legs were tightly wrapped in a layer of spotless white stockings.

The sunlight outlines the perfect curves, and the skin appears smoother and more delicate in the interweaving of light and shadow. The white silk depicts the contours of the jade feet with subtle shadows, making the lines of the legs more smooth and layered.

After sighing softly, Fu Xuan asked the other party seriously: "Qingque, have you read the message I sent you?"

Qingque quickly got up, nodding his little head like a chick pecking at rice: "I've seen it all! Luofu has sent an envoy to discuss work matters, and will also announce the alliance's resolution!

I've already arranged my trip. It's time to pack my luggage, and I've already asked Xianzhou Jiqiao Logistics to deliver it to me.

Now, as long as Master Fu Xuan gives the order, we can set off at any time!"

"Before you leave, I'm worried that you might miss some information, so I have a few things to remind you of."

Fu Xuan cleared his throat and said slowly, "First, we are on a long business trip this time, but for you, it is a happy occasion to go back to your hometown.

Second, General Teng Xiao of Luofu was no longer able to serve as a general due to physical exhaustion, and the previous position of Taibusi of Luofu had been vacant for a long time.

Therefore, this trip to Luofu is called a 'business trip', but in reality it is a transfer. After I leave, the Yuque Immortal Boat's Taibusi will be replaced by someone else."

"I know all this, but I'm more curious. The secret order we received only states that you're being transferred to Luofu, but doesn't specify what position you'll be in..."

Qingque's eyes gurgled as he spoke his own opinion, "Master Taibu, it seems that Luofu is transferring you to be a general?"

"Oh, don't talk nonsense. Appointing a general is a big deal. From the six captains of each ship to the ten kings of the alliance, and even the marshal, they all have to personally come forward to make the decision.

Although I have trained with my teacher for many years and have done many things under General Yaoguang, I cannot possibly become a general with my current abilities."

"Hey, Master Fu Xuan, don't be so rigid~ As the saying goes, 'Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are in the hands of God, the throne is passed down from generation to generation, and today it's my turn'~"

Fu Xuan, looking helpless, gently poked Qingque's forehead with his index finger and said sternly, "Alright, enough of the small talk. Don't waste time. The ferryman is already waiting for us outside."

"Alright, Master Fu Xuan, you go ahead. As long as we pass through the 'Boundary Star Gate', we will become Luofu people~"

Qingque followed Fu Xuan happily. The former jumped and skipped like a monkey, while the latter walked steadily and was as calm and composed as a centenarian.

Emmm, that’s not right. Fu Xuan is already more than a hundred years old.

-

After a while, the star raft they were riding passed through the "realm star gate", which was the "pioneering star gate" built by Shen Yi with his faith points, and successfully arrived at Luofu.

Qingque, who had not returned to his hometown for a long time, was happier than usual. One reason was that he missed home. When a wanderer has been away from home for a long time, he will always miss home.

As for the second reason, of course I don’t have to work today and can play all day long!

However, Qingque didn't have time to be happy for long, as the joy on her face faded when she saw one of the people in the welcoming queue.

The man was wearing a black official uniform with dark green patterns on it and a mask on his head. Even though he was standing in broad daylight, he gave people the feeling of being hidden in the shadows.

Although Qingque likes to be lazy, her eyesight and knowledge are quite good. She recognized at a glance that the person was from the Ten Kings Division.

And judging from the patterns on their robes, they are at least high-ranking officials!

Because only the chief clerk and judge level people of the Ten Kings Department can use such patterns.

"Master Taibu, it seems they are from the Ten Kings Division, right? Why are there people from the Ten Kings Division among those responsible for ferrying us across?"

Qingque lowered her voice and whispered into Fu Xuan's ear.

The latter was also confused. Although she calculated that today's trip would be much more complicated than she had imagined, and that something big would happen that was far beyond her expectations, she didn't know what it was.

In addition to this mysterious envoy from the Ten Kings Department, there are two other people responsible for the ferry, namely Qing Du, the general secretary of the Luofu Shen Ce Mansion, and Yu Kong, the current helmsman of the Tianbo Department.

Yukong took the lead and stepped forward to greet the two. "Fu Xuan Taibu and Qingque, thank you for your hard work on this bumpy journey."

"It's not hard. Thank you, Commander Yukong, for welcoming us here."

Fu Xuan acted like a leader and politely thanked Yukong.

"Without further delay, let's head to the Shen Ce Mansion. Some of the reasons here are hard to explain right now, and this isn't the place to talk."

"Understood. Let's go now."

As the star raft comes and goes, rises and falls.

After a while, Changletian arrived.

The Shen Ce Palace is located in an independent cave behind Changle Heaven. Normally, no one can enter without internal permission.

Of course, Fu Xuan and others are not included in this group of people who cannot enter.

The moment you step into the Shen Ce Mansion, you are overwhelmed by a solemn and dignified atmosphere.

Fu Xuan looked around the interior of the Shen Ce Mansion. Upon entering, there were two rows of welcoming pines, several stone lions cast from black stone standing tall, and several elite members of the Cloud Cavalry Army guarding the four corners. Going further in, there was the virtual chessboard projected by Yu Zhao.

On the steps were solemnly placed the documents that the general used to handle the affairs of the Luofu Fairy Boat. A refreshing incense burner was placed on the edge of the documents, as if to tell the difficulty of this job.

Qing Du looked around vigilantly and nodded to Yukong.

The latter then spoke: "There are no outsiders here, so we can get down to business."

Fu Xuan nodded slightly and gave Qingque a look, indicating that no matter what jaw-dropping things she heard later, she must remain calm and not lose her manners.

Qingque patted her chest and gave Fu Xuan a smile that said, "Don't worry, I'm here, I guarantee I'll be reliable."

"Then, in accordance with the laws of the Alliance, I now officially represent the Alliance and declare the joint resolution of the Ten Kings Law and the Alliance—"

Yukong took out the first scroll and slowly unfolded it: "Yuque Taibu Fuxuan, since taking office, has been conscientious and hardworking, and with a sincere heart, he has observed the subtle changes in heaven and earth and understood the subtle feelings of ghosts and gods.

Day and night he toiled tirelessly, studying the mysteries and exploring the profound truths in order to grasp the essence of the great Dao. His divinations were as accurate as the will of the gods, and they were always proven correct.

Therefore, he is relied upon by the alliance and respected by the people. They all praise his virtue and extol his achievements. He can be said to be a model of loyalty and a role model for sorcerers.

Therefore, it was decided to transfer Fu Xuan to Luofu Fairy Boat to serve as the Taibu and take charge of the area.

Upon hearing the order, Fu Xuan left without hesitation. After arriving at Luofu, he used his outstanding talents to perform divinations, resolve the people's doubts, and reassure them, continuing to benefit the people and bring glory to the Jade Palace.

Fu Xuan was not at all surprised about being transferred to the post of Taibu of Luofu Xianzhou. After all, all of this had been within her "Dharma Eyes" observation.

She took the letter of appointment from Yukong with dignity and solemnly swore:

"Fu Xuan accepts the order. Now that I have accepted this position, I will devote myself to it until my death."

So far, all developments are still within Fu Xuan's predictions, but the "big event" previously predicted has not yet happened.

Could it be that this big thing will happen to Qingque?

As expected, after receiving the letter of appointment, everyone present turned their eyes to Xiao Que'er behind Fu Xuan.

Even including the messenger from the Ten Kings who hid his face under a mask and had not spoken a word since they met.

"Greenbird..."

Yukong looked at Qingque, then glanced at the envoy from the Ten Kings Department, and introduced, "This is the envoy sent by the Lord Prison Warden of the Ten Kings Department. He will serve as a witness to this appointment."

"Eh?"

Qingque's heart skipped a beat. She had already seen that this man was a high-ranking official of the Ten Kings Bureau, but she didn't expect that he was so high-ranking and worked directly for the Prison Warden.

By the way, what kind of appointment would cause the Prison Warden of the Ten Kings to send an envoy to witness it...

Thinking of this, Qingque had a vague sense of foreboding in his heart.

Yukong took a brand new letter of commission from Qingdun's hand. Compared with the letter of commission just issued to Fu Xuan, this piece of paper made of silk was obviously more exquisite and more gorgeous.

"On behalf of the Alliance and the Ten Kings Division, I declare the Alliance's resolution."

"Yuan Yuque, the divination master, the blue bird, obeys my orders."

"According to the laws of the alliance, the ten kings have jointly reviewed the case, and the generals have voted and approved it. Now, the final decision is made on General Luofu's appointment."

"The fortune teller Qingque is extremely intelligent and strategic, with far-reaching plans. He is good at observing the changing situation and is good at planning and winning battles from thousands of miles away."

"Although they did not win by force, their wisdom and strategy were enough to keep the enemy out of the country and ensure the peace and tranquility of the people of Xianzhou.

"The alliance decided to entrust him with important tasks to demonstrate his talents."

"I hereby appoint Qingque as General of Luofu. He will immediately lead the troops to garrison the city and also be in charge of strategic planning."

"Externally, I wish you to foresee opportunities and assess the situation, so that the enemy will be terrified and flee at the sight of your shadow; internally, I wish you to comfort the people and maintain their peace, win their hearts with virtue, and let the people know that you are here, so that they will not be afraid or worried, and there will be no danger of thieves and bandits."

"The emperor's bow is bright, his aspirations are fierce; the immortal boat is majestic, its light shines like the sun and the moon."

"This matter has been decided by the Marshal, and with the Emperor's personal instructions, I hope you will live up to the expectations of the people and immediately return to your mortal form, eradicate the calamity of immortality in the universe, eliminate the evil invaders, and protect the immortal ship."

After the last word fell, the Shen Ce Mansion fell into a long silence.

Deathly silence filled the air, and even everyone's heartbeat was particularly clear.

Especially Qingque's heartbeat, it was so fast, as if she had stepped on the accelerator and entered the highway, as if it was about to jump out of her chest in the next second.

She stretched out her trembling finger, pointed at her already dull cheek, and asked tremblingly:

"Who, who, who will be the general? Me, me?"

"Qingque, letter of appointment."

Yukong handed it solemnly to Qingque, who took it with a dazed look on his face.

She slowly unfolded the letter of appointment, and the red words "I hereby appoint Qingque as General Luofu" were particularly eye-catching in her eyes.

Ha, ha, ha, ha!!

Bad things, this is bad things!

How could I be a general? How could I possibly be a general?

No, no, no, this is impossible, I must be crazy!
