Da Zaojun

Chapter 171: Use this to test the cadres
On the platform above the Qionghua Garden, there was a king in golden robes, with a majestic face. On his left and right were two flower queens, both with extraordinary looks, comparable to the celestial maidens of Yaochi and Yang Guifei of Guanghan Palace.

One was plump, the other was delicate and pretty.

[The Great Flower Queen. The Fairy of the Qionghua]
[Little Flower Queen. Qionghua Fairy]
[Queen Bee of Golden Armor, Master of Qionghua Garden]

These three demons all possess the eighth rank, and the queen bee among them is the ruler of this Qionghua Garden, a figure who reigns supreme.

Like Cangzhong and Hufang, he was the ruler of a country.

However, his kingdom was only the size of a beehive, and this territory was actually seized from the Qionghua Demon Queen by taking advantage of her orphaned children and widow.

This King Jin Zhou, besides raising a bunch of handsome young men, Iron-Jaw Young Man, also took in some adopted sons.

They were all insect spirits who originally intended to overstep their bounds to collect nectar or make a living in this flower garden.

Some of the dragonfly spirits, beetle spirits, mantis spirits, ant spirits, and centipede spirits all became ministers and generals.

At this time, they were all indulging in pleasure and debauchery.

These licentious people created an aura of romance in the sky, nourishing a magnolia tree that radiated a pink glow, like a lotus flower or a precious gem.

The magnolia tree was extremely tall, yet it only had two magnolia flowers, blooming side by side with thousands of overlapping petals, clearly representing the two flowers themselves.

Li Pandi, who had been missing before, was now being brought to the feet of the Golden Bee Queen.

The Golden-Armored Queen Bee looked down with disdain: "Indeed, she possesses the 'Qionghua Attracts the Phoenix' quality! Both queens, this woman is perfectly suited to be your furnace!"

“Your Majesty! We two have perished as flower spirits, and it is truly a pity that we cannot bear children for Your Majesty. If we could possess this woman’s body and transform her into the Queen Bee of the Jade Flower, we could then breed countless descendants for Your Majesty.”

"Hehe, having more children is just a waste of our life essence. Now that we have awakened our intelligence, we can no longer rely on instinct to act."

"To be born as a human is a rare and precious thing. We should leave this world and strive for a better future."

"You are the essence of the flower, and you cannot escape the harm of your original body. With this human body, it will not be difficult for you to attain enlightenment in the future. From now on, we will have the days of being a divine couple."

"Not far away, there is a wicked neighbor called Taichang City. The ruler of this place has successively slaughtered Cangzhong and Hufang. A few days ago, Lady Zhijin came to deliver a message, saying that we should be careful of this place."

"Lady Weaving Brocade also has her own secret realm, a kingdom of spider silk. She went to participate in the tiger demons' gathering, but in the end, she slunk back."

The Queen laughed and said, "We are not like them, Your Majesty. This is a paradise of gentle pleasures, a place where death is swift and painful, a debt of love!"

"Now that she's lured some sleazy men in, haven't they all become addicted to it?"

"If all else fails, I am willing to share Your Majesty's burdens."

Upon hearing this, Lin Pandi felt a sense of foreboding.

She had a sense of it because, like Song Wuji, she possessed a fragmented talent—the fragmented talent of the Qionghua Goddess among the Hundred Flower Goddesses. Qionghua was not as noble as lotus, peach blossom, or plum blossom, nor did she possess the wealth and nobility of peony.

However, because the Qionghua flower blooms during the imperial examinations, it carries a certain literary air. In a sense, the Qionghua flower goddess is a "female literary goddess," though she can't be considered the queen or the top scholar among flowers. Qingzhi mostly associates with talented women and famous courtesans in brothels. Only these people have stories of talented scholars and beautiful women, and are pursued by scholars and poets, all for a night of passion. This isn't really love, but merely a kind of flirtatious desire and possessiveness.

The Queen Flower and the Queen Flower are now in a similar situation, serving the Queen Bee but not as a couple.

The Golden Bee Queen pinched Little Flower's face: "You are the most charming. Your pair of watery eyes seem to speak without you even opening your mouth. They tickle a man's heart a thousand times, making him want to hold them in his hands and protect them, afraid they might melt in his mouth."

The eldest sister was voluptuous and beautiful, naturally alluring, but with an even stronger aura. She laughed to herself, "Then I'll give this body to my younger sister. My younger sister's seductive skills are indeed better than mine as her older sister. If you use a beauty trap, with tears streaming down your face like a pear blossom in the rain, or a catkin drifting in the wind, with a delicate body that I find pitiful, if you were to experience a storm of passion in bed, it would satisfy a man's desire to conquer."

Hearing this and seeing this scene, Song Wuji couldn't help but feel secretly pleased: "So this is how they test their cadres! They just underestimated me! Why don't we all come up together? We're all twin flowers, why are we being divided into sisters?"

On second thought, although the two large and small magnolia flowers are beautiful, they are married women... This doesn't seem to be a flaw, but rather a plus for some people!
But Song Wuji couldn't stand it, especially since her husband was a bee.

Think about what bees do—collect nectar! These two sisters have been gnawed on countless times, and we don't even know if their nectar supply has dried up yet.

However, thinking about possession is wrong!
Song Wuji ignored the gongs and drums and the elaborate mortise and tenon joints, and simply opened his mouth, exhaling a breath, using his supernatural power [wind summoning].

Song Wuji's wind came from a tiger demon, so it was tiger wind, not bad breath.

The wind carried the might of a tiger, howling and whistling like a sick tiger panting.

When the wind blew, it caused all the flowers to wither and many insects to lose their bearings and become disoriented.

The Golden Bee Queen stopped in her tracks and unleashed a golden needle: "Freeze!"

It turns out that bee venom has the ability to stop wind-evil and treat various rheumatic diseases. One treatment is bee moxibustion, which involves using the tail of a bee to acupuncture acupoints to clear the meridians and dispel wind and dampness.

The Golden Bee Queen froze the tiger-like wind summoned by Song Wuji and angrily shouted, "Who released this raging wind! How dare you disrupt my Jade Flower Pleasure Banquet!"

"Didn't you just say you were going to seduce me? I didn't even need you to seduce me, I came here on my own, so why do you look so unhappy?"

Song Wuji appeared, a mocking smile on his face: "As expected, you are all insects, with such a narrow mind. I don't care about the big flower queen or the little flower queen. But I have my eye on you."

The Golden Bee Queen was shocked: "Do you perhaps have homosexual tendencies?"

"Pooh!"

Song Wuji spat: "I've seen people raise bees before. They all control the queen bee, so that the whole hive of bees can be used by them and work hard to collect honey. My food is still missing one ingredient: honey. You, guarding the flower garden, with so many flower fairies filling the harem, must be making genuine multifloral honey."

"Surrender quickly, and I'll spare your life. Otherwise, even dragons and tigers have been killed, let alone a tiny insect like you! It's just a matter of crushing you with a flick of the wrist!"

The fact that he had just sneezed and burned a ninth-rank insect demon to death made Song Wuji realize how much restraint he had shown towards these insect demons.

This restraint is not just talk; it has a reason. In the countryside, when growing melons and vegetables, people would scoop out wood ash from the stove. If there were insects in the soil, they would sprinkle some out; if there were insects on the leaves, they would sprinkle some out too.

If all else fails, slash-and-burn agriculture, which involves burning the land directly, can also kill some pests.
