Chapter 184: Want a living dead

Chapter 182

"That's true," Li Duojin nodded. "Although your Royal Highness has gained a

lot from this battle, the loss is not small. If the team can be replenished,

the confidence in dealing with danger can be increased by one point in the

future."

"It's not just the original army." Ning Wanjun said with excitement, "Don't

forget that Jinxia City is not a border. There are official roads and inland

rivers here. Heavier weapons will not become a hindrance to the army."

He Guicai suddenly said, "Are you planning to use the artillery captured from

Dongsheng Kingdom?"

"Not bad."

If Jinxia City is Ning Wanjun's greatest political gain, then the greatest

military gain is undoubtedly that warship that has never been seen before. Mo

Yun checked on the spot and found that it was extremely difficult to repair

the hull. The demon's long-range direct attack almost shattered half of the

ship's side and caused water to enter the bottom. However, the artillery is

basically intact. After statistics, there are still 64 artillery in use. Not

only that, they also found a large number of shells and gunpowder in the

cabin, enough to arm a force.

The princess still feels that artillery has various shortcomings, but it is

completely different if it is captured by itself. It takes more than a year to

train soldiers, but the artillery thing only needs to be repeated. The process

is enough, which is very suitable for Jinxia City, which needs to race against

time.

If you can quickly pull out an artillery force, it will be a great supplement

to your own strength.

At least defending the city will not be a problem that bothers her.

"Understood, I will work out the conscription plan as soon as possible." Staff

He clapped his chest.

"Don't have the meaning of forcing others to join the army like before." Ning

Wanjun added, "The template is based on the form of recruitment, and it is

mainly voluntary."

"By the way, where did that kid go?" Grandpa Li complained, "Now that Jinxia

City is a waste of time, people need to be staring everywhere. It's better for

him to leave everything to the palace to do. He even has a figure. I can’t

see, we have never seen such a courtier."

Ning Wanjun showed a relaxed smile, "Thanks to him, this battle was finally

won. It doesn't hurt to let him rest for a few days."

"His Royal Highness, you indulge him too much."

"Is there?" She shrugged indifferently, "I think he is thinking about how to

grow Jinxia City even in his free time?"

"Are you sure?" Li Gonggong said dubiously.

"Well, because then he can push his ideas to a wider place."

...

"Guest, the crystal pig's feet you ordered are here!"

"Oh!"

As soon as Xiao Er put the dish on the table, he immediately grabbed it with a

pair of small hands and put it to his mouth to gnaw.

"What are you thinking about now?" Fang Xiandao looked at Xia Fan across the

table.

Xia Fan's gaze stayed on Qianzhi, "I'm thinking...how can I get her to my

side."

"No, this is my living dead!" Fang Xiandao hurriedly stretched out his hand to

protect Chichi, "You asked me out to meet, is this the idea?"

"That's not the case." Xia Fan smiled, "I invited you to meet in order to

formally thank you. This Dongsheng Kingdom attack is thanks to Brother Fang's

help."

"Thank you for nothing. As I said, I didn't come to Jinxia for you. This is

related to my personal breakthrough, and your performance can be regarded as

solving my doubts."

"You really don't plan to join my Privy Council... No, it should be called the

Secretariat, should you work with me?"

"Yes, you don't need to persuade you. The fortune teller shouldn't have too

much involvement with the seeker."

"So you will leave Jinxia next?"

"Who said I'm leaving?" Fang Xiandao frowned, "I was only confirming what the

doubts were before, and I will continue to observe for a while to further

verify my hexagram arithmetic."

"Will you tell me if you find it?"

"Of course, otherwise how to confirm each other."

Xia Fan was shocked. Isn't this the legendary part-time job and no wages?

"Then... what Brother Fang said." He once again looked at the zombie girl who

was eating happily, "I don't know a thousand knowledge--"

"Qianzhi can't give you anything!" Fang Xiandao said quickly, "Don't say an

outsider, even within the Fang family, not everyone can have a living dead."

"Are you sure she is the living dead, not some kind of demon?" Xia Fan

curiously asked, "As far as I know, natural magic is a characteristic of demon

talent."

"Hmph, that's because you know too little. At least in Lingzhou, the living

dead are born from human beings. You never think that demons are born out of

life, right."

What a coincidence, really! Xia Fan raised his brows, "Can you elaborate on

it?"

Fang Xiandao looked at him suspiciously for a while, "Well, it's not a secret

in Lingzhou, I'll just tell you. The Fang family has a branch, and it has

lived in dense mountains for a long time, and offspring will have a chance to

be born. Living dead. Living dead cannot bear children and live a long life.

These characteristics are contrary to demons. As far as I know... demons can

bear offspring with people."

"Since the living dead can't bear children, isn't the number of Fang family

branches getting fewer and fewer?"

"Family separation is the same as the main house, and it will regularly bring

in people from outside. But you can't be wrong. After all, the number of

people willing to live in the forest is decreasing every year."

Xia Fan pondered, "Will the living dead only appear in that area?"

"Otherwise? This is something unique to the Fang family."

Having said that, it seems that most of the monsters like "ghost" were born in

the country of Equestria, but the fox monsters are not all. Is there a

connection between the differences? It is a pity that there are too few

samples, and Xia Fan couldn't draw a conclusion for a while.

"I said...Why are you so interested in the living dead?" Fang Xiandao asked

inexplicably, "According to the magical power you showed, ordinary alchemists

can't get close at all? If you didn't hide your clumsiness during the exam,

You must be the first name this time."

"Because Qianzhi is loved by others-well." The little girl was pushed into the

rice bowl by Fang Xiandao before she finished.

"Eat your stuff!"

"I think her icing technique is very interesting, maybe it can be used in many

places." For example, make a bowl of shaved ice for Li and appreciate her

wagging tail. "Since you can't bear her, let her come. Can I make some ice

cubes in my house? Anyway, there is only benefit to using more spells, but no

harm."

"Doesn't that mean working for you? Let me refuse." Fang Xian said

righteously.

"I can provide compensation."

"Is it money? For a divination, money is just something outside the body."

"It's magic knowledge." Xia Fan paused, "You don't want to know what magic

arts I used that day?"

Fang Xiandao was shocked, "You—what did you say? Are you willing to tell me

this incredible technique?"

"It doesn't matter to me, it's just that it's more complicated, and there are

a lot of things you need to master. If you agree--"

"Deal!" He did not hesitate to come down~www.mtlnovel.com~ What's a joke? It

can drive the bronze bell and eliminate the magical magic with one blow

through half a yard. Anyone who feels excited will have it. Great curiosity.

The reason why he resisted not asking is just that he didn't want to find it

boring. If he exchanged this technique for money, I am afraid that only the

Privy Council of Gyeonggi can afford it.

"It's so good." Xia Fan smiled. If the other party were willing to join the

bureau, they would be able to learn electromagnetics without any cost. What's

more, when the school opens, courses such as arithmetic and learning things

will begin to be popularized by all school-age children.

"Found it, Master Xia is here!" Suddenly, Shan Hui's figure appeared on the

second floor of Wanfu Building, with a piece of clothes that he changed

yesterday in his hand.

Then Li, wearing a hat, also boarded the second floor and walked quickly to

Xia Fan.

"Did something happen?" Xia Fan looked at the fox demon in surprise.

Li moved closer and whispered, "Someone reported to the Privy Council that he

had caught a living demon!"
