Just when Tan Wanjun and the others were about to recognize each other as father and daughter.

At this time, in the Kyoto Imperial Palace, in the center of the entire Chu Kingdom, a storm is about to unfold!

On Changyuan Mountain, about five or six kilometers outside Kyoto, there is a Lingyuan Temple.

This Lingyuan Temple is very famous in Kyoto.

Because the "Tai Qing Xuan Zhen Miao Dharma Spirit Lord" enshrined in this temple is quite efficacious, many people come here to pay homage and then ask for a bowl of rootless spiritual water to drink, and the whole person's spirit will be better for the day.

It is said that this rootless spiritual water is the spiritual water that these Taoist priests ask the spiritual master to consecrate after each practice. Drinking the spiritual water does not mean that all diseases will disappear, but it also has the effect of expelling evil spirits and keeping cold.

Even the masters of some medical clinics in Kyoto said that this spiritual water is quite mysterious. Not to mention the consecration, this spiritual water is made from medicinal materials that nourish the body and blood, and it has a certain degree of strength.

Function of muscles and bones.

Lingyuan Guan is willing to use this spiritual water to provide free supply to the people. Although the daily supply is not much, it is also a matter of immeasurable merit.

With the endorsement of Baicaotang, which is said to have produced imperial doctors, Lingyuan Temple became more and more popular.

Every day, the rootless spiritual water is in short supply.

Everyone who has drank it says that they feel as if they have been blessed by a spiritual being, and they feel energized all day long.

This makes everyone flock to the Rootless Spiritual Water, and there is even a black market selling the Rootless Spiritual Water.

In addition, the Taoist priests in this Taoist temple are all celestial beings and treat people with a positive attitude. As a result, there is an endless stream of people in this Taoist temple every day. Countless businessmen and wealthy people in the capital will go to the Taoist temple to seek for the rootless spiritual water.

And the light source.

For this reason, they will spend thousands of dollars at any cost!

And on the back mountain of Lingyuan Temple, where people flock to every day, there is a thatched house.

Behind the thatched house is a cliff.

There is only one road in front of the cliff leading to the thatched house.

If you want to get here, you have to go straight through the entire Lingyuan Temple to get here.

At this time, in this thatched house, Longcheng, who should have been in the East Palace, now appears here!

The prince is not allowed to leave Beijing unless he has something to do!

This is a rule of the royal family, which is both protection and restriction.

But now that the prince appears here, it already explains a lot.

Yes, this Lingyuan Temple is exactly the Taoist temple of Bishop Ling under the crown prince.

There are many Taoist temples like this in Chu State.

The so-called rootless spiritual water is actually a magical medicine.

It's still a super diluted version.

It is so diluted that it only has a refreshing effect, so it is really harmless to the human body. However, the residual drug addiction in it will still take effect on people, but very slowly.

According to the efficacy of this spiritual water, a normal person who wants to become addicted needs to drink one bottle every day for half a year without interruption.

Precisely because it has extremely low addictive properties and the production cost is extremely low, under Long Cheng's instructions, Bishop Ling used this elixir as a means to attract money and win people's hearts.

Not only that, since there is dilution, there are naturally different dilution concentrations.

The prince divided the elixir into several levels based on its dilution.

Use these different levels of spiritual potions to seduce the wealthy businessmen and dignitaries, and then make them addicted without knowing it and become dependent on Bishop Ling.

It is precisely by using this point that the prince has actually formed a spiritual drug addiction organization headed by him in the entire Chu State. This organization involves people from top to bottom, large and small, and has almost penetrated the entire Chu State.

That sucks.

Long Cheng had never paid much attention to this before.

Because he used to just use this as a means to get money, and he was more concerned about his Taoist soldiers, beast soldiers, and the research and development of the spiritual water that opens the mind.

Therefore, after running the business for almost ten years, since he has been living in the East Palace, he does not even know much about the development of Bishop Ling below.

After all, this was ancient times and there were no such convenient means of communication.

Even in modern times, the CEO of a company sometimes doesn't know how big his industry is unless he asks others to count it.

Just like before Longcheng.

And since the last time Wang Xuanling told Long Cheng the secret of Emperor Chu, Long Cheng had that thought for the first time, and he began to understand the current development situation of Bishop Ling in detail.

After coming out of the secret passage of the East Palace, he successfully left the palace and came to a Sankai house in Kyoto.

This is where he lived when he used to sneak out to play.

Through this residence, he successfully concealed his identity and left Kyoto, came to Lingyuan Temple, and then came to this thatched house.

Although this thatched house is very simple.

In fact, not to mention that this thatched house is guarded by the Lingyuan Temple in front, there is actually a secret passage inside it, which leads directly to a deserted cave in Lingyuan Mountain.

If you encounter danger through this deserted cave, Long can quickly go down the mountain in minutes.

As the prince of Chu State, Long Cheng has always cherished his life.

At this time, besides Long Cheng, there were three people standing in this thatched house.

These three people are the three spiritual envoys of Bishop Spirit.

In addition to Wang Xuanling, the dragon spirit envoy, there are two others, one is the sheep spirit envoy Gan Jingwu, and the other is the Bailing envoy Su Yuanyuan.

As mentioned before, Bishop Ling has five great spiritual envoys.

These five spiritual envoys represent the so-called five poisons in the world, toads, geckos, poisonous snakes, centipedes, and scorpions.

In fact, as a spiritual bishop, he has developed into this state and has already studied the poison very thoroughly.

They all know that among the five, geckos are basically non-venomous, and logically speaking, they cannot be counted among the five poisons.

But the problem is, the reason why our ancestors called these five animals the five poisons is actually because these five animals can be used as medicine!

Moreover, its medicinal effects are also quite unique.

Although gecko is not poisonous, first of all, it can be used as medicine, used for detoxification, treating epilepsy and so on.

Not only that, gecko is called gecko, and gecko sand is mainly made from it.

In addition, the most important thing is that geckos can have their tails cut off and reborn!

The ancestors knew this a long time ago, and they believed that the gecko must be an elixir that can be used to regenerate severed limbs, so they listed it as one of the five poisons.

This is indeed the case. The reason why Bishop Ling was able to develop this unique elixir with miraculous effects was because the gecko played a huge role.

Among the five spirit envoys, the dragon spirit envoy corresponds to the poisonous snake, the sheep spirit envoy corresponds to the scorpion, the lark spirit envoy is the centipede, the toad is the golden spirit envoy, and the gecko is the palace spirit envoy.

Among them, the Dragon, Sheep, and Baisan Spirit Envoys are responsible for external affairs, and the Dragon Spirit Envoy is mainly responsible for external cleanup, combat, and collection of medicinal people.

The Yangling Envoy is responsible for the financial affairs of the entire Spirit Bishop, while the Bailing Envoy is responsible for dealing with the wealthy merchants and nobles, playing a role similar to that of a social butterfly. She is also the only female among the Five Spiritual Envoys.

Jin Lingshi and Gong Lingshi are R&D personnel, and they lead a "professional team" all year round to be responsible for research and development. Jin Lingshi is responsible for experiments, and Gong Lingshi is purely responsible for development.

The five great spirit envoys each perform their duties.

In fact, at the beginning, Longcheng didn't do that much, but gradually year by year, Bishop Ling gradually grew stronger, and he changed along the way, and finally formed this state.

Today's gathering.

Except for the Golden Spirit Envoy and the Palace Spirit Envoy who did not participate, the other three spiritual envoys have already arrived.

After Long Cheng came up with the idea, he asked Wang Xuanling to take the lead and asked several spirit envoys to sort out the current situation of Bishop Ling. After he understood it, he decided whether to implement the plan.

Therefore, here, Long Cheng faced the three spiritual envoys and listened to the reports all morning.

Although the Golden Spirit Envoy and the Palace Spirit Envoy did not arrive, their reports had been sent by someone long ago. Therefore, after Long Cheng listened to the Spirit Envoy's report, he fell into a trance.

You won’t know if you don’t check, but you’ll be shocked if you check!

Long Cheng also didn't expect that he had no intention of managing the spiritual bishops on weekdays. He mostly let them develop on their own, while he served as a protective umbrella to provide convenience for them.

Therefore, he knew that Bishop Ling was powerful, but the more intuitive understanding of his power was in the aspect of medicine.

But he never thought that several other spirit envoys had actually infiltrated the entire Chu State into this state through the use of spiritual medicine.

According to what the previous spiritual envoys described, almost nine out of ten senior officials in the entire Chu Kingdom now have this unclear relationship with Bishop Ling.

With the help of the elixir, they also controlled a small part of it.

The reason why he only controlled a small part was because Longcheng had not focused on this aspect before.

Therefore, the envoy Bai Ling who is responsible for this aspect is not too active in doing this.

In addition to these, the wealth that Yang Lingshi has accumulated with the help of Lingshui and Bai Lingshi's connections is already quite astonishing.

Although, most of this wealth has been invested in the development of Taoist soldiers, animal soldiers and elixirs.

But the remaining money is still very considerable.

So in this unintentional way, I have already become the most influential person in the entire Chu State?

Long Cheng was stunned.
