This shit can't stand it anymore

Chapter 505: Looking for a saint to return favors

There are military camps all over the western wilderness.

A gloomy atmosphere hung over the entire wilderness.

A few birds occasionally flew across the sky, making a few screams, and the only sounds echoed in the wilderness.

At the entrance of the camp, pieces of military uniforms were neatly placed on old wooden boards. When the light touches their heavy texture, the eyes are instantly shocked, as if they are about to burn.

Walking into the military camp, every step on the mud made a loud sound.

No one spoke, only an occasional shout broke the almost suffocating silence.

The bloodstains remaining on the armor became so red under the setting sun.

"Get ready, we're about to fight."

A low call came, and the entire military camp suddenly surged. Everyone rushed towards the gate, moving slowly like a snail.

The flag of the Xiqi Zhou Clan has been raised high, and everyone's blood boils in an instant.

The flames of war reflected the sky, and Xibohou's roar was like a violent storm, inspiring the warriors of the Great Zhou Dynasty to overcome obstacles. The battle flags of Xiqi's army fluttered in the wind, like a giant dragon rolling on the battlefield. The slogan "Kill the evil spirits and clear the emperor's side" when the army was launched was imprinted in everyone's heart.

The raging anger in Lord Jichang's heart was like a prairie fire, unstoppable.

Dongbohou Jiang Huanchu and Nanbohou Eshun, these two world-famous princes, have profound loyalty. They were all already dissatisfied with the dissolute and unscrupulous King of Shang. After hearing the call of Marquis Xiqi, they immediately led their own soldiers and rushed to the Shang Realm to gather together.

Bishui Pass is an important pass for Xiqi's army to march into the Central Plains.

Han Rong is the commander-in-chief of Sishui Pass.

His uniform was stained with blood.

However, under the united impact of Xiqi's army, his troops seemed to be unable to do what they wanted.

The sky was dark, the sound of killing was loud, and the birds over Sishui Pass had already taken flight and disappeared.

Jiang Ziya made a plan and then acted. He laid a dragnet and ambushed the merchant army's food transportation route in advance, and unexpected troops emerged. Han Rong had not seen such a powerful enemy force for a long time. Although he tried hard to resist, he was ultimately unable to defeat them.

The merchant army was defeated and fled for thousands of miles.

In the direction of Chaoge, the Hunjun and the Demon Queen seemed to be ignorant from a different world. They were singing and dancing in the palace, and could not see the smoke of the troubled times amidst the wine and revelry. Empress Daji's emerald dress danced like a weak willow breeze, but she didn't know that her death was approaching.

As news of each victory came, Xibohou Jichang, the lord of Xiqi, did not have much joy in his eyes.

Fight bloody battles on the battlefield and rush to the battlefield.

He launched an army to attack Shang this time to avenge his eldest son Boyikao who was brutally killed by the King of Shang!

But he also knew that Boyi Kao was a loyal person and would never want to see him start an army to attack merchants.

He stood on the horse, climbed high and looked into the distance, looking at the beacon fire in the distance.

Once upon a time, the weak Xibohou no longer existed, and was replaced by a lion who vowed to complete the conquest of Shang Dynasty.

The narrow road meets the brave to win!

From the day they raised their troops, they had no way out.

Xiqi and Dashang, only one can have the last laugh.

Ji Chang resolutely issued an order, vowing to take the heads of the lewd and unscrupulous King Zhou and the demon queen who brought disaster to the country and the people. His sonorous voice resonated in every corner of the battlefield. The soldiers before the battle had bright eyes and their morale was greatly boosted.

At the same time, Dongbohou Jiang Huanchu and Nanbohou Eshun, who actively responded to Xibohou's call, also led their respective elite troops to attack Dashang from the east and south respectively.

Their flags rustled in the wind, and the soldiers' majestic postures and gnashing eyes condensed into a powerful signal - the princes of the world finally gathered together and vowed to overthrow the tyranny of the big businessmen.

Nanbohou Eshun is a fierce general who has experienced hundreds of battles. He has a strong face and eyes like lightning. He wears bronze armor and holds an iron gun. As soon as he stands, he leaps out like an iron horse. Jiang Huanchu, the Marquis of Dongbo, has an extraordinary bearing, as elegant as an orchid, and also has outstanding swordsmanship. Every time he swings his sword, he seems to be writing a wonderful calligraphy.

In the following days, the three armies attacked Dashang.

After Xiqi's army cut off the grain transportation route of the merchants, Sishui Pass was besieged and became a besieged city.

After seeing Jiang Ziya's ability, Xibo Hou Jichang gave Jiang Ziya full responsibility for the crusade against the Great Shang. The latter made a comprehensive strategy in the tent. The map was spread out and dust was flying. Every idea, every front, Every tactical deployment was carefully considered and convinced all Xiqi generals.

It seemed that in their minds, the destruction of the merchant army was a foregone conclusion.

The war drums are distant, the war flags are hunting, and the decisive battle in front of Sishui Pass has finally come.

Xiqi's army pressed towards the city gate in a mighty manner.

Facing the imposing Xiqi army, although the soldiers under General Han Rong were also known as elites, they seemed to be slightly weak in the face of the Xiqi army's momentum.

Han Rong was wearing heavy armor and holding Fang Tian's painted halberd tightly with both hands. His eyes shone with a cold light, but there was an unknown worry in his heart.

The supply of Sishui Pass has been cut off, and it has become an isolated city.

Without the arrival of reinforcements, it would be difficult for Sishui Pass to stop Xiqi's army.

The beacon smoke dispersed, and the sound of war drums became louder and louder.

Between the flash of swords and the shadow of swords, in front of the city gate is the battlefield of life and death.

Outside Sishui Pass, dust was flying and gunpowder smoke filled the air.

Xiqi's army surged like a flood and broke through the last line of defense at Sishui Pass. The commander-in-chief, Han Rong, was magnificently dressed and led the remaining soldiers to fight hard. He stood in front of the battle bravely and did not regret dying on the battlefield.

But when Xiqi's cavalry rolled over like a violent tide, Sishui Pass was in ruins, and Han Rong also died heroically among thousands of troops.

With the fall of Sishui Pass, Jiang Ziya ushered in full control of Dashang's military network. He holds the military talisman in his hand, his eyes are like a torch, and he is filled with calmness and wisdom. Immediately afterwards, Xiqi's army spread its wings more and more like a Kunpeng, attacking fiercely, pointing directly at the border pass that separates the enemy from us and protects the border between Dashang and Shang.

The defenders of Jiepai Pass were in great panic under the oppression of Xiqi's army. They sent messages through flying pigeons, earnestly praying for reinforcements from Chaoge. However, the information seemed to have fallen into disarray, with no one paying attention and no reinforcements arriving.

In the Chaoge, Emperor Xin was sitting in the magnificent Jinluan Hall, wearing a golden crown on his head, but the expression on his face was extremely ferocious and twisted, his eyes were about to split, and a roar resounded through the sky: "Rebel! Rebel! Huge thief! "

He suddenly swept the letters asking for help on the desk to the ground, grabbed another piece of porcelain, threw it to the ground, and immediately broke into pieces.

The surrounding guards and ministers were all frightened and did not dare to make any move.

Daji hurriedly came to comfort her, speaking softly, trying to calm Di Xin's rage.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. The Western Bohou Jichang is just an ant. The Jiepai Pass is impregnable, and the old general Huang Gun is stationed there, so the situation will be stabilized." Daji held Emperor Xin in her hands, her soft eyes revealed Somewhat coquettish colors.

Di Xin, who had always obeyed her words, stood up suddenly at this moment, slapped his palms on the armrest of the throne, and made a dull sound: "Steady? What are you holding on to? Wasn't Sishui Pass said to be a majestic pass before? Isn't it also Is it enough to break the news? My princes are all like treacherous dogs. The Xiqi army has already attacked Jiepai. How can I condone the traitor? "

Immediately afterwards, Emperor Xin stood up with a puff of sleeves and gritted his teeth: "Immediately summon the generals on the left and right, mobilize the imperial army, and I will personally lead the army to deal with these thieves. How can the world allow them to turn the tide!"

Di Xin's anger was like blazing flames jumping in the hall, and his words were like thunder exploding in everyone's ears.

The ministers present bowed their heads and remained silent, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn.

Just when Emperor Xin was planning to go on a personal expedition, Prime Minister Shang Rong stepped forward slowly, his eyes were firm and clear, and his voice was like a spring coming from a rock: "Your Majesty, I have something to say! Although Xiqi is strong, it is not invincible. Guard Jiepai Pass. The old general Huang Gun has been on the battlefield for many years and must be a sharp blade. Huang Feihu, the son of Huang Gun and the King of Wucheng, is the most brave among the three armies. He is famous for his bravery and good fighting skills. If he leads the army to help, he will surely be able to stabilize the boundary. potential."

Next to him, Uncle Wang Bigan also took a step or two forward, staring at Emperor Xin with a pair of bright eyes, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Xiqi's troops are powerful, Bishui Pass has been lost, Jiepai Pass is in danger, now is the moment. A strong general is not enough to turn the tide.

Your Majesty, King Wucheng Huang Feihu is the shining pearl of our great business, and he is not afraid of war. If Your Majesty had ordered Huang Feihu to lead his army to Jiepai Pass for support, he would have been able to reorganize our great business empire. "

Wang Shubigan held the memorial in both hands and spoke in a firm yet gentle tone.

When Di Xin heard the suggestions from the two ministers, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, but he soon regained his composure. He knew that Wang Shubigan and Shang Rong had never said a flattering word, and their words at this time were actually forced by state affairs.

He was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath, and his momentum seemed to calm down slightly. His eyes passed over the faces of the two ministers, and finally stopped on Shang Rong. He nodded slowly: "Huang Feihu is a well-known general in the army, and he is also the one I am facing." Those who can be trusted. Then according to your words, Huang Feihu will be sent to the palace immediately."

Soon, Huang Feihu arrived as ordered, wearing a gilt armor and a sword hanging from his waist, with an upright style and a commanding temperament. He knelt before Di Xin, and the leader's orders were shot out like sharp arrows.

Emperor Xin ordered in a deep voice: "King Wu Cheng, Gu orders you to kill the Xiqi rebels in front of Jiepai Pass and bring Ji Chang's head to see Gu!"

Huang Feihu nodded: "I will definitely live up to your majesty's trust!"

Hearing Huang Feihu's confident answer, Di Xin's anxiety finally eased somewhat. He waved his hand and said, "Go ahead and wait for the news of your triumphant return."

Huang Feihu took the order and left.

He didn't hesitate for a moment. Wearing silver armor and holding a big halberd in his hand, he patrolled the army one by one, standing still as a mountain.

"This time we are under the orders of the country to rush to the aid of Jiepaiguan. We must work together to eradicate the weeds!"

King Wu Cheng's order sounded like thunder in his ears, and soldiers from all directions gathered in unstoppable force.

Suddenly, the bronze drum roared, and the beacon smoke covered the sky and kicked up thousands of feet of dust.

The army is ready to attack, and it is like a tiger swallowing thousands of miles.

Huang Feihu, like an arrow off the string, led the troops and galloped all the way to Jiepaiguan.

The battle flags are like the sea, and the soldiers and armor are like the tide.

……

At the same time, Linhuan Pass, far southeast of Dashang, also began to actively reorganize its troops.

As the city lord, Wen Zhong was not in the city at the moment, but stood outside the palace on the bank of Huai River, looking extremely respectful.

The waves of the Huai River gently lap against the shore, making a soft sound.

"Master, the current situation is complicated. I don't know what to do, disciple?" Wen Zhong kowtowed again for instructions.

The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit in the treasure hall slowly opened her eyes, and the divine light circulated in them, like twinkling stars. She said calmly: "Sishui Pass has been lost, and Jiepai Pass is in danger. It can be seen that the power of Xiqi has been achieved. Go ahead and press the button. Do what is in your heart.

No matter what choice you make, I will do my best to support you. "

Wen Zhongli was shocked in his heart, and then he felt a courage that he had never had before. He quickly bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Master, for the enlightenment. I know what to do!"

After saying that, he turned around and left the palace with firm steps, returning to the City Lord's Mansion in the center of Linhuan Pass.

Soon after, the 50,000 elite troops at Linhuan Pass began to prepare for war.

Yu Yixian led Liu Huan quickly up the city wall, overlooking the busy figures of the soldiers.

Liu Huan looked around, with a bit of excitement in his voice: "Senior brother, the Shang Dynasty is in decline at this time, and there are powerful enemies on all sides. Jiang Huanchu is in the east and Eshun is in the south, which just distracts our attention.

Now that Dashang has no strength to protect the frontier, it is a God-given opportunity for us to march into Chaoge. "

Feather Wing Immortal frowned slightly, knowing that the opportunity was rare.

He scrutinized Liu Huan's eyes and spoke slowly: "We only have 50,000 soldiers at Linhuan Pass, which is far inferior to those of the princes. We must be cautious in our actions. Although the opportunity is good now, if we act too early, I am afraid it will If it alarms Chao Ge and stirs up bigger waves, it’s better to wait and see first.”

At this moment, Wen Zhong suddenly arrived.

"What the two fellow Taoists said makes sense."

Wen Zhong's eyes were steady and he said calmly: "Since the current situation is changeable and the princes are competing for hegemony, if we want to send troops, we should carefully choose the right time. But I feel that this is also a good opportunity, and we have prepared a corner to prepare for the future. .”

After hearing the words, Liu Huan's eyes flashed, as if he was thinking, but Yuyi Xian disagreed and snorted coldly: "After all, you have only been practicing for a short time and have little experience. Chao Ge has a deep foundation, which is far from being easily shaken by us. .

If you are too eager to advance, you may become a bird in the spotlight. It is better to wait and see what happens and wait for the results of the rebellion of the princes to come out. "

Looking at the two of them, Wen Zhong actually understood their worries.

Although he has received the approval of his master, if this operation fails, not only will he face an unknown crisis, but also the many Jie Jiao disciples involved will be implicated. The most important thing is that these two people were conquered by his senior brother Yu Yuan.

Now Yu Yuan has not returned for a long time, and the leader has promised to kill him personally.

The two of them were being very loyal by not leaving immediately after getting the news.

However, it was very difficult for Wen Zhong to order them.

At this time, a spy came on horseback and shouted "urgent" from a distance.

Wen Zhong hurriedly called him forward.

"Report!" The spy came in a hurry and knelt down to announce, "Huang Feihu has led his army out of Jiepaiguan and is heading west quickly to fight head-on with Xiqi's army..."

"What's the result?" Wen Zhong asked hurriedly.

"I don't know!"

The spy shook his head and said: "The person who delivered the news only knew that the mountains were shaking within thousands of miles around the battlefield, and thunder and fire were erupting with great force. Therefore, they did not dare to step forward and had no way of knowing the situation on the battlefield."

After Wen Zhong heard this, his brows suddenly frowned.

This was indeed urgent news, but it was confusing and confusing.

He turned to Yu Yixian and Liu Huan and said: "It seems that the situation is more complicated than expected. Huang Feihu is proficient in the method of battle formation. He has four generals from the Demon Family and other masters of interception under his command to help him out, and he is deeply trusted by King Shang." , I’m just afraid that Xiqi will be defeated.”

The Winged Immortal looked solemn when he heard this: "This matter cannot be underestimated. No matter who wins or loses, he will be our enemy in the future. Now we just take the opportunity to observe them..."

Before he finished speaking, Wen Zhong shook his head and said: "But if Xiqi is allowed to attack Chaoge first and then join forces with Dong Bohou Jiang Huanchu and Nanbohou Eshun, we will have to face a huge monster. ?”

"Then you mean to send troops in advance to fight them?" Yuyi Xian sneered: "How can you fight them with just the 50,000 soldiers you have?

I'm afraid I can't even defeat a large shopping mall, right? "

He and Liu Huan exchanged a look, and the latter quickly echoed, saying that it would be too risky to send troops at this moment.

Wen Zhong shook his head and said: "Without a real fight, it is still unclear who will win. Just as the princes raised an army to attack the merchants, they may not be able to succeed. The rise and fall of the world is difficult to determine for a while, but no matter what, we are already involved. In this dispute, all we can do is move forward.

Adventure is a must!

But rather than sit back and wait for death, it’s better to take the initiative! "

Just as the three of them were discussing, an invisible pressure suddenly formed out of thin air.

"when!"

A crisp bell rang.

Immediately afterwards, a figure suddenly appeared on top of the city, it was Yu Yuan.

His appearance was like a flash of lightning in the sky, making everyone present stunned.

Wen Zhong's eyes widened, and he felt the suppressed worries in his chest dissipate like smoke, and an unprecedented sense of peace filled his heart.

Yu Yixian and Liu Huan looked at each other in surprise and astonishment, with unconcealable shock in their eyes.

Yu Yuan looked around and scanned the expressions of Wen Zhong and the others.

Then, he spoke slowly, with a voice like a parasol tree, "I just heard your argument. What was it about?"

His voice was not loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

Wen Zhong felt excited, and he quickly stepped forward and briefly reported the current situation. There was both deep hesitation and confusion about the future in his words.

After hearing this, Yu Yuan's expression remained calm as before, as if all these disputes were beyond his comprehension. He turned his head and stared at the undulating mountains in the distance, as if searching for the lifeblood of the world's rise and fall in the mist.

After a moment, Yu Yuan turned around, a flash of light appeared between his brows, revealing a determined look.

"Fight! Fight immediately!"

Yu Yuan's words were brief and powerful, yet unquestionable.

Wen Zhong was startled for a moment, then showed a look of joy that could not be concealed, while Yu Yixian and Liu Huan looked at each other without any objection.

They originally knew that now was a good opportunity to send troops, but because they didn't have the backbone of Yu Yuan and they couldn't trust Wen Zhong, they didn't want to take the risk.

They are all profound people who have seen too much bloodshed and know that opportunities and risks are always on the thin line.

However, now that Yu Yuan has returned, all the hesitations and concerns have become insignificant.

Wen Zhong nodded heavily and said happily: "Since senior brother is destined, we will take action immediately! Tomorrow at the latest, the army will leave the city! Go to Chaoge and kill the demons!"

Yu Yuan smiled slightly and gave him an affirmative look.

Wen Zhong no longer hesitated and immediately issued the order to send troops.

As soon as the words fell, the 50,000 elite troops under the city were like awakening sharp blades, suddenly emitting thunderous fighting intent, and a chilling aura condensed in the air.

The flags are fluttering and the trumpets are flying to the sky.

Yu Yuan walked through the void and walked towards the treasure palace on the bank of Huaihe River.

The afterglow of the setting sun reflected on him, making his shadow look very tall.

In front of the hall of Our Lady of the Golden Spirit stand two dragon-shaped auspicious beasts made of glazed glass, which are crystal clear and look solemn and mysterious under the golden light. The door was half-open, revealing the warm light and faint fragrance inside.

Yu Yuan called out in a deep voice: "Master."

In the treasure hall, Our Lady of the Golden Spirit, who is meditating with her eyes closed, is surrounded by endless brilliance, like a bright sun, clear and flawless. She felt a familiar breath approaching and slowly opened her eyes, her eyes showing love and relief.

"Just come back." The voice of Our Lady of Golden Spirit sounded,

Following the sound, the figure of Our Lady of the Golden Spirit slowly appeared in the door. She was wearing a silver robe and a nine-day fairy crown. She looked like the bright moon in her hometown, exuding a calm fairy spirit no matter where she was.

She took a few steps forward and looked at Yu Yuan, with unconcealable relief and affection in her eyes.

Yu Yuan bowed and saluted, and then said after calming down his mind: "Master, this disciple has come back with enlightenment and gained more."

The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit nodded slightly. She looked at Yu Yuan, as if she could see through the depth and breadth of the power of heaven and earth contained in his body.

"In these three realms, you are the only one who can improve so steadily!"

She came to Yu Yuan, raised her hand slightly, smoothed his hair, and said with a chuckle: "Now that you have repaired the Chaos Clock, I am afraid that no one in the three realms can be your opponent!"

The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit looked at Yu Yuan carefully and could feel the vast power flowing in his body. It is a valuable experience gained through countless ups and downs.

"By the way, how did you escape from your master?"

The voice of Our Lady of the Golden Spirit was as melodious as a guqin, but she could not hide the curiosity and surprise in her heart.

Yu Yuan's eyes flickered, and his thoughts seemed to return to that thrilling pursuit battle.

"Speaking of this, it's really thanks to the help of those saints..."

He focused on the matter of Yuanshi Tianzun being forced to take action, and mentioned the help of the two saints Zhunti and Nuwa without going into details.

Although Yu Yuan spoke in an understatement, the Golden Spirit Mother knew how dangerous it was.

This apprentice must have encountered many dangers, and he was lucky to be able to return unscathed.

She raised her eyes lightly, and there was a hint of doubt in her words: "Zhunti and Nuwa, these two saints actually came to help. They are so affectionate and affectionate, and it is difficult to do it for no reason. Yu Yuan, do you know the reason?"

Yu Yuan was silent for a moment, looking at the master calmly, "The reason why the two saints took action to free themselves, but I can't explain it clearly now."

The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit nodded gently, her eyes were like the divine light in the moon palace that saw the endless world. Hidden in the depth seemed to be able to see through all the brilliance in the world. She said slowly: "You are right. The cause and effect in this world are intertwined. Very difficult for anyone to see through.

Since Sage Nuwa intends to protect you, this is also a good thing for you, so you don’t need to think too much about it.

As for Saint Zhunti..."

She didn't say much, but the hesitation in her words already let Yu Yuan know that she definitely didn't have a good impression of this saint.

Even so, Yu Yuan felt something else in his heart.

"correct."

At this time, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit spoke, her eyes flashing with deep thought.

She turned and looked out the window. The sky in the night seemed to be shaking slightly.

The expression of Holy Mother Jin Ling was slightly hesitant, as if she was silently trying to figure out something in her heart.

Her eyes paused on Yu Yuan for a moment, and finally she spoke slowly: "I thought of a way that might solve your master's problem.

Although this method is difficult to operate, if it succeeds, it will definitely allow the leader of Tongtian to return to his original roots. "

When Yu Yuan heard this, his heart trembled, and he intuitively got a glimmer of hope.

He quickly asked: "What is the solution?"

"Time goes against the flow and returns to nature."

The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit said solemnly: "As long as we can let your master go back to the past, everything will be easy to handle."

Yu Yuan frowned.

He is very proficient in the magical power of time reversal. If he is willing, he can easily make a Taiyi Golden Immortal regress back to his infancy!

But the problem is that the leader of Tongtian is a genuine saint. How can this magical power work on a saint?

However, he also understood that what the Master said was by no means unreasonable.

Sure enough, Our Lady of the Golden Spirit stared at Yu Yuan immediately, her gaze as gentle and profound as the stars, "The power of saints can move the universe and change the sequence of time.

If you can ask a saint to take action, coupled with the power of your innate treasure, the Chaos Bell, you may be able to help your master turn back time and return to the past. "

Yu Yuan frowned slightly. He knew the difficulties and twists and turns involved. Finding saints to help was extremely difficult, not to mention that they did not interfere in worldly affairs easily.

He looked at the figure of the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit and secretly thought in his heart that if he wanted his master, Tongtian Cult Master, to return to his original state, he would really have to ask a saint to take action.

Thinking of this, his heart moved, and he suddenly remembered that he had a friendship with the authentic saint in ancient times - Empress Pingxin.

The saint's predecessor, Tuzu Shaman, even said that he owed him a favor and wondered if he could ask Empress Pingxin to repay it on her behalf.

He took a deep breath, looked at the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit and said: "Master, it suddenly occurred to me that there may be a glimmer of hope. The Pingxin Empress in the underworld will do me a favor, she may..."

The Holy Mother of Jinling paused for a moment, turned around, and stared at Yu Yuan keenly. After a moment, she whispered: "Empress Pingxin? That authentic saint, do you think you can invite her to take action based on a piece of karma?"

Yu Yuan nodded, "Master, although this favor is light, it is something she personally inherited. If you don't try, I'm afraid you will never have this opportunity. Disciple is willing to give it a try."

The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit looked at Yu Yuan for a long time, and finally nodded slightly.

"Well, since we have this connection, we might as well give it a try. But be careful, this kind of saint has boundless power and unpredictable will."

Yu Yuan put away the ripples in his heart, bowed to his master, and then embarked on the road to the underworld.
