Chapter 765: Information About the Seven Stars

……

Due to the limitation of detection technology, the test lasted until the early morning. Both plant detection and rat test showed that live water with double chlorine injection could be used normally, and the pathogens in the water were basically eradicated. Xia Fan breathed a sigh of relief after getting this result. It means that the purification system can fully withstand the test of artificial poisoning. Even if the Qixing Privy Council plans to use the upstream water source of Jiujiang in the future, cities with centralized water supply can rest assured.

When the pumping pool roared again, this actual combat exercise was finally a complete success.

"We have the results here too." Yan Qing handed a stack of Q&A records to Xia Fan. "The prisoner has no experience in fighting illusions, nor has he received spy training. The interrogators of the Privy Council asked a few questions, and he told everything he knew."

Xia Fan simply scanned the records.

The actual situation was similar to what he expected.

After Zhou Sheng sent the secret letter to the capital, it quickly attracted the attention of the Seven Stars, so they instructed the alchemists lurking in Shenzhou to secretly cooperate with Mr. Zhou and "incidentally" use more effective biological poisons. Zhou Sheng had no idea about this, nor did he know that when he started buying arsenic everywhere, he had already been targeted by the Privy Council, which was in charge of security and internal affairs.

What surprised Xia Fan a little was that Zhou Sheng had written dozens of letters to Liuzhou, Shangyuan and other places in the past, and also served as an outpost for spies to settle in the Battle of Shenzhou, which was considered an intermediate node in the intelligence network. But the Seven Stars did not protect him at all. Not only did they not respond to his letters, they did not even inform him of this action in advance. Obviously, the Privy Council did not regard Zhou Sheng as their own.

"This is not surprising." Yan Qing said as usual, "It is almost impossible for ordinary people to make a difference in the Privy Council. Only those who sense qi can get their trust and attention."

"How do you plan to deal with him?" Yu Linglong asked.

"Let's follow the Jinxia law. Although his methods are ridiculous, his subjective malice is extremely great. No matter how severe the punishment is, it is not too much."

"I understand." She whistled, "It seems that there will be another lifelong hard labor in Baisha Mine."

In Jinxia City, this is a punishment of the same level as the death penalty.

In some ways, it is even more severe.

"But I am a little surprised that the Seven Stars Taoist priests can take action quickly." Yan Qing continued, "They can let Bairen participate in it, which means that there are higher-level Taoist priests in this area. These people will be a hidden danger to the city."

"Indeed." Xia Fan nodded. The failure of the Ten States Coalition did not mean that the struggle between Jinxia City and the Privy Council was completely over. From the current situation, the Seven Stars not only occupied the capital, but also wanted to enter Qi State from the northern seaport, and their infiltration into Shenzhou has never stopped. "Before, it was helpless for Luo Qingqing to identify hundreds of thousands of residents alone. Now there are more and more people who can sense qi, and we should also develop new identification technology."

"Is this...really possible?"

"At least the escape tower can achieve this." Xia Fan looked at Sikong again, "Am I right?"

"I thought you had already mastered the trick of sensing qi." The latter did not deny, "Although qi cannot be detected directly, it will continue to affect the body and mind, such as what you said-"

"Sense qi into the body."

"That's right, so starting from brain waves, bones and nerve images, it is easy to distinguish between people who can sense qi and those who can't. Of course, more detailed observations require more powerful penetrating cameras, and the assistance of the central processing unit is also required. If it is just a simple distinction, the processor of this body can complete the task."

"Look, the problem is solved." Xia Fan raised his eyebrows at the two people with dull faces, "Next, the Privy Council needs to count and supervise all the people who can sense qi in the city. I hope that such secret sabotage incidents will not happen again."

...

Qiguo, Shangyuan City.

Tianquan Envoy Goldman received two messages from overseas.

First, the elite troops that entered the Xiema Island have confirmed the location of the immortal weapon, but it is currently in the center of the battle between the two forces, and this alchemist team is not capable of taking it under control. According to the plan, Qixing should have sent an army of 200,000 people to the island to seize the Moon Shadow Temple with thunder, but the previous sea transportation was accidentally intercepted by Jinxia City, so that the entire operation was delayed.

Fortunately, those monsters and tree islands have been repelled by Gongshu's mechanical beasts. After urgently purchasing a batch of ships, Qixing has now restored its transportation capacity.

Goldman Sachs does not care who owns the Xiema Kingdom, nor does he care about the new queen of Xiema and the princes of Dongsheng mentioned in the letter. He believes that as long as the Qixing army is sent to the island, these mobs are not a concern at all.

After all, during the Yong Dynasty, Xiema was just a vassal of the mainland forces, and people were sent to the capital to pay homage every year. Now that Qixing is close to unification, history will only return to its proper track.

The second news came from Xiji.

Just a few months ago, the number of ships rushing from Xiji to the mainland suddenly increased for some reason. Although most of these ships were heading for Qi State, some of them bypassed the northern mountains and came to Mao State and Feng State. The Privy Council also obtained other information channels besides the Xiji ambassador.

Although it cannot be said that it is very important, as a competitor of "Tian Dao", it is not a bad thing to get more information from there.

The letter said that a large-scale civil war had broken out in the Holy Wing Islands. The demon race, which had previously occupied a dominant position, was no longer as glorious as before, and the challenger was the Qi Sensing People of the Western Extreme. They were advancing one after another in human form and were gradually devouring the territory of the dragon demon.

Originally, this news could only be used as a topic of conversation after dinner - after all, the Qi Sensing People of the Western Extreme and the Seven Stars Privy Council were not the same kind of people at all, and the extermination of demons was even more popular, but part of the content caught Goldman's attention. That is, in this civil war, the figures of evil spirits appeared many times. It was obviously not a coincidence that they could appear in the key areas of the battlefield so appropriately, and the method used by the Qi Sensing People to drive and control the evil spirits happened to have some shadows of the forbidden techniques of the Yongchao Dynasty.

This made Goldman a little worried.

He was not worried that the spread of evil spirits would lead to the destruction of lives.

But if the Seven Stars Privy Council clashed with the Western Extreme one day, the party with the power of evil spirits would undoubtedly have a considerable advantage.

If the power of chaos becomes the trump card that all parties are vying to research, then wouldn't the Seven Stars Privy Council, which regards evil magic as forbidden magic, be naturally at a disadvantage?

However, eliminating evil is the slogan that the Seven Stars have always advocated, and it is not so easy to suddenly turn around.

"Sir, Lord Gongshu wants to see you." At this time, a subordinate reported.

"Oh?" Goldman put down the letter in his hand. During the day, the old lady basically stayed in the Machinery Bureau of the Ministry of Industry. It was not easy to see her. Now she took the initiative to come to the door and obviously had something important to tell her. He temporarily suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind, "Please ask her to come in."

It's my birthday tomorrow, so I'll take a day off and relax a little:)
