Although some people find it quite cute, the thought that some of the fortune tellers under his command have been "influenced" and become a kind of "dried seafood" active in Changletian turns that cuteness into "gritting teeth".
If everyone starts touching the inkstone, won't work efficiency plummet?
I really don't know why the Grand Diviner has kept such a 'troublemaker' around!
A moment later, in the instruction hall, 'Qingque' saw Fu Xuan busy at his desk—the latter, upon seeing Qingque, looked annoyed: "Aren't you going to get back to work?!"
Fu Xuan did not question Jiang Qiao about why she was late.
Given Qingque's nature, there must be a reason for his lateness. As for whether the reason was because he was slacking off... I don't care. Fu Xuan, who adheres to the concept of efficiency first, has no intention of taking time out of his work to 'educate' his unambitious subordinate.
She directly placed a pile of files in front of 'Qingque'—logically speaking, given Qingque's lowly position as a diviner, many of these were matters she had no authority to concern herself with. Jiang Qiao picked one up and glanced at it; one of them even contained the work content related to the divination of the main route of the immortal ship's voyage... Shouldn't this be something that the Grand Diviner should handle personally?
Although it's not complete, only a part of it, this...
Well, the boss pushed the work aside, and there was nothing Jiang Qiao could do. She sighed and could only silently pick up the file and walk aside to process it according to the method she remembered.
He was quite interested in this.
After all, the divination of the Immortal Ship is essentially a special kind of 'calculation'—and coincidentally, one of the prerequisites for being good at 'playing with permissions' is to be quite sensitive to this aspect.
Absorbing the 'nutrients' from this body, the girl also became intoxicated.
Just like controlling Bronya, he regarded this body as a special 'calculator'.
Or rather, the human body itself is a kind of 'computing device', but after it came into Jiang Qiao's hands, with her experience as the 'Herrscher of Truth', and with the blessing of part of the 'Authority of Truth' she carried, she directly possessed an 'extra calculation device' equivalent to the Dharma Eye between Fu Xuan's foreheads through her techniques.
And that would be quite a big deal.
It should be noted that Fu Xuan himself must be cautious when using that Dharma Eye—because the consumption is too great, and there is also the possibility of 'overload'.
And what about Jiang Qiao's version of 'Qingque'?
He doesn't have these two concerns—overload? Although he uses this body, 'Qingque' is more like a memory for transferring content to Jiang Qiao.
But the consumption is too high...
Just draw energy directly from one's destiny.
The imaginary energy is inexhaustible. Jiang Qiao, who has experience using various Herrscher bodies, directly uses the extraction method of 'imaginary singularity' to continuously extract the energy of the 'joyful' destiny that she has opened.
Extract, transform, calculate, and obtain the result.
The number of files dropped rapidly—according to Fu Xuan's plan, that file was actually at least three months' worth of material, covering various fields.
Knowing her unambitious subordinate, Qingque was probably taking her time to do her work carefully, stealing moments of leisure amidst her busy schedule.
Fu Xuan knew that even so, Qing Que would definitely be able to complete the task on time—but she also knew that Qing Que was just dawdling, and if she really got serious, those tasks would not take her that long to complete.
"Sigh...you really never give me a moment's peace."
Fu Xuan, sitting at his desk, sighed.
Knowing Qingque's talent, she placed high hopes on the child, even grooming her as her successor. Fu Xuan believed that as long as Qingque used her intelligence in the right way, she would definitely not lose to her—and with the blessing of her divine eye, it was not impossible for the child to surpass her.
Unfortunately, that's just her personality; you can't rely on her at all.
To unleash her potential, Fu Xuan even had to use her divine eye between her foreheads to predict Qing Que's movements and work progress. It was because of this that she was able to appear whenever Qing Que had free time. If she used this computing power on her work, she could be several times more relaxed.
Of course, that's okay.
All we need to do is dump the workload lost after using the Dharma Eye onto Qingque.
Let's just consider this a chance to toughen up this unambitious guy.
Occasionally, Fu Xuan would also stuff in a little extra.
Hmm, come here~ let me, the Grand Diviner, take a look at how that little sparrow is doing.
Chapter 185 Ah Zhen fell in love with Ah Qiang
"Grand Diviner, it's terrible! Qingque has gone mad!"
Just as Fu Xuan blinked, somewhat doubting whether he had seen wrong, his subordinate, the diviner Ruoyue, rushed over, looking panicked.
"What's the panic? How many times have I told you to guard against arrogance and complacency in the face of adversity... Never mind, what happened?"
"You'll find out when you go and see."
Feeling somewhat strange yet very nervous, Fu Xuan knew that his plan for Qing Que was to become the successor of the Grand Diviner of the Grand Diviner Bureau after he became the General of Luofu. Accompanied by Ruo Yue, Fu Xuan quickly walked to the library, which was also Qing Que's main work post at present.
The closer she got, the more Fu Xuan frowned, because all the diviners from the Imperial Divination Bureau were here. She could see at a glance that a group of diviners were still peering into the library from the entrance.
Given her meticulous nature, she couldn't tolerate such a scene and couldn't help but scold her sharply:
"Why are you all gathered here instead of doing your own jobs and pursuing your goals?!"
Although her voice was soft, her fierce yet stern tone silenced all the fortune tellers, who scattered like birds and beasts.
Fu Xuan didn't press further and went straight into the library—one of the main workplaces for the lower-level diviners of the Grand Diviner's Office. Usually, there would be one diviner on duty every day, and today it just so happened to be Qing Que.
Soon, she found her target – 'Blue Sparrow'.
Upon seeing the other person, Fu Xuan, who was usually as steady as a mountain and never smiled, widened his eyes and opened his mouth slightly, as if he had seen something unbelievable.
Qingque is actually working properly?! No, it's not that Qingque didn't know how to work properly before, but when she started working, she basically did it while slacking off, and she would start touching the big model without making a sound.
As for focused and dedicated work... Qingque has yet to encounter a workload that pushes her to the brink of collapse.
In Fu Xuan's view, the chestnut-haired girl with a low ponytail sitting at the desk was holding data in one hand. Her usually carefree face was now full of seriousness and concentration. Looking at that scene, Fu Xuan thought that he was probably just like that.
"Master Taibu, Qingque has already finished processing all the route calculations for this month!" Hearing Ruoyue's words, Fu Xuan's scalp tingled. The voyage of the Luofu Immortal Ship required consideration of many factors, such as asteroids, the dangers of the surrounding area, and the potential risks. It could be said that this task was the most important and also the most demanding for the Taibu Department.
The term "one month" refers to the result obtained after a month of work assisted by the Qiong Guan Zhen's calculations.
Even if Fu Xuan himself were to do it, with his full divine eye and ability to see the entire formation, it would still take at least a week.
And now there is someone who only took one day—no, from the time she started the job until now, it probably hasn't even been half a day, right?
Even more chilling is that the creator of this project is named 'Blue Sparrow'?!
Everyone in the Taibu Bureau knows that this guy is a total slacker. He wants to steal every minute to slack off while he's working. Many fortune tellers say in private that if Qingque ever starts working seriously, then the world is probably going to end.
And now—this ultimate slacker has not only started working, but...she's doing the work of hundreds of fortune tellers for a month?!
This is giving me a creepy feeling; isn't this just a typical tarot paranormal event?!
Currently, some fortune tellers have privately uploaded this matter to the Xianzhou Zazu website.
Title: Shocking! The world was destroyed because of a mere diviner!
Currently, the number of clicks has exceeded 100,000.
With a tingling scalp, looking at the mountain of files and the dizzying array of names stored in the Jade Tablet, Fu Xuan walked to the desk. In the past, Qing Que would have been scared out of her wits and would probably have been stuttering. But now, even though he was so close, Qing Que was still focused on her work, as if she didn't even see him.
Although she didn't feel the displeasure of being ignored—Fu Xuan wasn't that kind of old-fashioned and rigid—looking at this 'Azure Sparrow,' she finally couldn't help but speak up:
"...Qingque, what are you doing?"
The question that came out was so stupid that Fu Xuan wanted to slap himself.
Upon hearing the voice, 'Blue Sparrow' finally looked up with a surprised expression, then raised the dossier in her hand:
"Hmm? Lord Diviner, you've arrived. Isn't it obvious? We're at work."
"No...that's not what I meant..."
As the head of one of the six departments of the Immortal Ship, Fu Xuan was certainly capable in handling affairs. However, when faced with this subordinate whom she used to be able to easily control, she was somewhat at a loss for words.
Could it be that—Qingque, you're usually so lazy, why are you working so diligently now? What are you up to?!
Although he is straightforward and always speaks his mind, Fu Xuan would never say such things to a subordinate who is working diligently, would he?
This is simply discouraging people from being motivated.
Driven by curiosity, Fu Xuan braced himself and spoke in a subtle tone:
"I was just conducting a routine inspection and noticed that you were working harder than usual today, which is why I was surprised."
"Oh, you mean this?"
"Well, it's not something that can't be said. Yesterday, when I was taking a break at Chang Le Tian, I happened to see an advertisement that said, 'If you don't do it, someone else will.' When I saw it, it suddenly dawned on me. Now that I think about it, what you told me before, Master Taibu, actually makes a lot of sense. Isn't life just about being busy like this?"
"Thinking back to how I used to drift through life aimlessly, I always felt that this couldn't go on. Now I've turned over a new leaf and am ready to work hard!"
The girl spoke with conviction—that Mr. Jiang was not lying through his teeth.
Work makes me happy (loud)!
Although he felt a slight tingling sensation in his body, and had an urge to pinch himself and rub himself on the ground, it didn't matter. Jiang had plenty of experience using other people's bodies.
When you encounter this kind of problem, just change your body to the shape you want (I'm sure of it).
The Slacking-Off Saint Body (×) The Innate Working Saint Body (√)!
'Sparrow,' I'm not saying anything against my conscience; these are my heartfelt words, 'Blue Sparrow'!
Undoubtedly, Fu Xuan was completely stunned by these heartfelt words.
She moved closer to 'Qingque' and touched his forehead to make sure the child wasn't delirious from a fever.
He pinched his chin, leaned closer, and opened his eyes—hmm...there was nothing dirty on him, so he was definitely not an imposter.
Ruoyue, standing to the side, watched the two girls who were standing so close together, and her cheeks gradually turned red.
