The God and Buddha are actually me

The whole battle took only half an hour from start to finish, and the commander-in-chief Ji, who was known as the Black Water Mysterious Immortal, was defeated in less than two hundred blows.

Everyone in the Yue family seems to be in a dream.

Looking at Ji Zhen being stepped on by Yue Ling, even Yue Shuai felt a little panicked at this moment.

If the younger members of the Yue family would still doubt Ji Zhen's identity, he knew in his heart that Ji Zhen couldn't be fake.

Although Ji Zhen threatened him with military pay and food, which made him very dissatisfied, the Yue family did not intend to rebel. They just wanted to teach him a lesson. If they were really killed, they would completely break up.

The Yue family cannot afford to kill the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army, His Majesty's confidant, in full public view.

The name of six hundred years of loyalty and martyrdom must not be ruined in his generation.

Therefore, when he saw that his daughter and Zhang Jiuyang had really defeated Commander Ji, and even wanted to try the Overlord Spear in their hands, Yue Shuai finally couldn't sit still.

"You can just teach me a lesson, don't go too far."

He sent a message to Zhang Jiuyang.

The reason why he gave it to Zhang Jiuyang instead of his daughter was that he also saw that for his daughter, Zhang Jiuyang's words seemed to be more effective than his own.

Zhang Jiuyang nodded slightly and replied via voice transmission.

"Don't worry, Marshal Yue. This junior knows what he is doing. The purpose of capturing the commander-in-chief this time is not to take his life, but to ask him for a favor."

He reread the word "please" with a hint of playfulness in his voice.

Zhang Jiuyang did not act impulsively. He naturally knew that it was far from enough to fall out with the emperor. Even though he was a little disappointed and dissatisfied, the Yue family would never bear the reputation of rebellion.

He will not lead his loyalty to injustice.

The reason for taking down the Commander-in-Chief was, firstly, to dampen the opponent's arrogance, and secondly, to ask the Commander-in-Chief to temporarily aggrieve and do a small favor during the subsequent interrogation of the Double-Faced Buddha.

Hearing this, Yue Shuai breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that although Zhang Jiuyang acts boldly, he still has a bottom line and knows what can and cannot be done.

What he is most worried about is that if he succeeds as a young man and has strong power, he will do whatever he wants, which will only bring disaster to the Yue family.

"Is your in-law family planning to rebel?"

"Yue Jiang, by doing this you are worthy of the late emperor and your majesty——"

Ji Zhen was still shouting when he was knocked unconscious by Yue Ling's gunshot, and his voice suddenly stopped.

Yue Ling stabbed him with his spear, accurately passing through his belt, then picked him up with one arm and carried the gun on his shoulder, like a hunter returning from hunting, proudly carrying his trophy.

"You guys chat slowly, I'll lock someone up."

She smiled lightly and seemed to be very happy.

She had long disliked this Jizhen. When she was in the capital, she often gave the Qintian Supervisor a trouble. His Majesty even wanted him to take over the position of Supervisor.

This time Ji Zhen came into contact with two of her taboos. One was that he wanted to interfere in her marriage, and the other was that he dared to threaten military pay and rations and treated hundreds of thousands of border officers as nothing.

This made Yue Ling, who was a soldier, filled with indignation and dissatisfaction.

"Slow down, don't hurt anyone."

Yue Shuai ordered with some worry.

Seeing the once majestic Commander Ji being hung on the Overlord's Spear like a prey, Yue Shuai's facial muscles trembled slightly.

I have relieved my qi, but why am I so weak in my heart?

"Got it~"

Yue Ling picked up the commander with a gun and glanced at Zhang Jiuyang.

"This is for you."

Zhang Jiuyang patted the purple gold gourd on his waist and took out a piece of white tiger skin. The evil aura was so overwhelming that Yue Shuai was shocked.

This is...the evil spirit of the tiger!

Yue Shuai, who had been fighting with the tiger all his life, immediately realized that this white tiger skin was actually shed by the tiger!

"It's not that easy to pry open the mouth of the Double-Faced Buddha. Let the commander pry open a small opening for us first."

Zhang Jiuyang smiled and said: "It can be considered an unexpected surprise."

Yue Ling nodded, then took the white tiger skin and turned into thunder and flew away.

Her last words echoed in the air.

"Father, mother, please come back as soon as you go. I begged Zhang Jiuyang to do what happened this time. Don't blame him."

"And you little guys, please show some respect. Seeing Zhang Jiuyang is like seeing me."

The voice is clear and resonant, very upright and speaks directly from the heart.

Many people looked at Zhang Jiuyang with amusement. This was the first time they saw Yue Ling protecting a man in this way.

The female overlord of the Yue family has finally grown up.

Some of the more lively juniors dared to joke boldly only after seeing Yue Ling walking away.

"Sister Ling hasn't even come here yet, so she's just protecting our husband..."

"I didn't expect that the eldest sister would care about people..."

"Hello, brother-in-law!"

Zhang Jiuyang's old face turned red, he coughed, and his toes touched the ground. This Yue Ling just left, why did he say such a thing.

Yue Shuai snorted coldly, and the surroundings suddenly became silent.

"That's the end of today's banquet. You all have military positions, so please go down."

"Remember, not a single word of what happened today is allowed to be spread to outsiders, otherwise military law will be dealt with!"

"promise!"

Everyone in the Yue family bowed and left with high spirits. It was obvious that they were also excited by this fight.

The higher Yue Ling's cultivation level, the higher the status of the Yue family will be in the future.

With the addition of Zhang Jiuyang, a young prodigy, the Yue family has become even more powerful. Perhaps the situation in Jizhou will become better in the future.

Zhang Jiuyang was sitting on pins and needles and was about to leave, but was pulled back by Mrs. Shen.

Mrs. Shen held his hand and asked about his well-being.

"Child, do you have parents or relatives at home?"

"How old are you this year?"

"How did you and Ling'er meet?"

"What is your birth date?"

When she heard that Zhang Jiuyang was an orphan and the only person who raised him, Blind Lin, was a bad guy, the evil spirit of Huangquan, Mrs. Shen showed a trace of pity in her eyes.

Not only did she not despise Zhang Jiuyang because of his background, but she looked at him with a softer and more concerned look.

"Child, you have suffered."

"From now on, you and Ling'er are both my children, and the Yue family is your home..."

This feeling made Zhang Jiuyang both moved and embarrassed.

He grew up with his grandfather in his previous life and was used to being independent. After crossing over, he was also an orphan. This long-lost feeling of family affection made him not used to it for a while.

But it is undeniable that Mrs. Shen's gentle and kind behavior made him no longer so embarrassed and nervous.

It was not until Yue Shuai coughed that Mrs. Shen glanced at him.

"Don't you know how to speak when you have a mouth? You have to cough?"

"A grown man, let others guess your thoughts every day?"

In private, Madam Shen was rude to Yue Shuai, and Yue Shuai showed a bitter smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Madam is teaching me that I want to go out for a walk alone with him."

He originally wanted to wait until Madam left before talking, but he never thought that Madam would pull Zhang Jiuyang and talk endlessly.

If he waited any longer, it would be dark.

"Xiaojiu, then you two should go out for a walk. Don't worry, if he dares to bully you, I will support you."

Madam Shen glared at Yue Shuai, and then left reluctantly. Before leaving, she specially measured Zhang Jiuyang's clothes size, saying that she wanted to make a piece of clothes for him.

"Let's go, take a look at the place where Ling'er grew up, I believe you should be interested too."

Yue Shuai patted Zhang Jiuyang's shoulder, and then strode forward.

Zhang Jiuyang hurriedly followed.

The old and the young strolled in Yue's mansion.

Although the Yue Mansion looks grand, it is not gorgeous inside, and is even a bit simple. There are no pavilions, rockeries and streams. The most is the vegetable garden.

"My wife and I often take the servants in the mansion to farm. Although the vegetable garden is simple, it can save a lot of money. There is also a large area of ​​rice in the backyard."

Yue Shuai looked at the vegetable garden with a smug smile on his face.

It is hard to imagine that the Grand Marshal of Jizhou, who commanded 200,000 troops, would smile as simply as an old farmer in the field.

"Many people think that I, the Grand Marshal, am busy in the fields every day. I have lost my former ambition and am not doing my job. Xiaojiu, what do you think?"

He asked lightly.

Zhang Jiuyang knew that this was a test from Yue Shuai.

The other party did not want flattery, but wanted to test him to see the deep meaning behind it.

Zhang Jiuyang smiled slightly and said, "I think that General Yue is not without ambition. On the contrary, your behavior is what makes you a far-sighted commander."

"Oh? Tell me about it?"

Zhang Jiuyang picked a grain of rice and rubbed it carefully in his hand.

"People in a prefecture can cultivate a hundred acres of land, so what if it is 200,000 Jizhou soldiers?"

Instantly, General Yue's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he stared at Zhang Jiuyang deeply.

"Jizhou is poor, not because of the poor land, but because of the declining business and sparse population. In fact, there is fertile black soil here, so such full rice can be grown."

"The people are underpopulated, but if the general raises his arm and lets 200,000 Jizhou soldiers reclaim wasteland and cultivate land, the problem of military food will naturally be solved."

Zhang Jiuyang showed a trace of admiration in his eyes, and said: "Marshal Yue personally cultivated land, just to practice it himself and see if this method is feasible. It seems that he neglects military affairs like an old farmer in the field, but in fact it is the real strategy and foresight."

To solve the predicament of Jizhou, only self-reliance is available!

In fact, China has had this system since ancient times, called the military farming system, which allows the border troops to cultivate land by themselves, thereby solving part of the military food problem.

It's not that no one in Daqian has proposed a similar system, but it was rejected by the emperor.

Food is the lifeblood of the army. If the army is allowed to cultivate by themselves, the court's control over the local army will undoubtedly be weakened.

Especially in Jizhou, a very sensitive place.

"I didn't expect that the generals under my command, who have fought with me for a lifetime, are not as far-sighted as you."

General Yue was very moved. Even some people in the Yue family did not understand his intentions and complained that farming was boring and delayed their martial arts training.

If the people are hungry, no matter how good their martial arts are, they can't protect Jizhou.

He looked at Zhang Jiuyang with more satisfaction. This kid is really good. Not only is he highly skilled, but he also knows how to adapt and has foresight.

"But General Yue, I'm afraid the emperor won't agree easily."

"Of course not. I have written to him several times, but His Majesty has not agreed yet. But this time, for the sake of the commander-in-chief, I think..."

"His Majesty will agree."

Zhang Jiuyang was startled, and then looked at General Yue with wide eyes.

Good guy, the old fox is here!

No wonder when he and Yue Ling captured the commander-in-chief, General Yue just watched quietly. It turned out that he wanted to use the commander-in-chief as a negotiation condition to make the emperor agree and allow the Jizhou army to reclaim wasteland and cultivate on their own.

The Grand Commander is very important to the emperor and is an indispensable confidant. As long as the Yue family is a little tougher, the emperor is likely to agree.

"You don't have to look at me like that."

Yue Shuai smiled bitterly and sighed, "As a minister, I shouldn't have calculated the king like this, but for the sake of the people of Jizhou, for the stability of the border of Daqian, and for the foundation of the late emperor, I can only take this step."

Loyalty to the king and the country is still his belief, but Jizhou is almost at the end of its rope. On the premise of not rebelling, he must try his best to fight for it, even if the means are not so fair.

"Xiao Jiu, so please make sure to ensure the safety of the commander-in-chief. When it's used up, I will write to His Majesty."

"Okay, Yue Shuai rest assured, it seems that the commander-in-chief came at the right time. Those so-called betrothal gifts are not as valuable as him."

Yue Shuai laughed when he heard it, and then patted Zhang Jiuyang on the shoulder. He said nothing more, but the relationship between the two became closer invisibly.

Unconsciously, the two of them strolled to a place.

Yue Family Ancestral Hall.

Zhang Jiuyang's heart moved. He was still thinking about how to mention to Yue Shuai that he wanted to go to the ancestral hall to have a look, but he didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to bring him here.

Looking at this ancestral hall, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and he was slightly excited.

When Tianzun attacked the Duke's Mansion, blood flowed here, creating a tragedy in the Duke's Mansion that shocked the world. It was also the first time that Huang Quan appeared in the eyes of the world in a high-profile manner.

Yue Ling has been investigating this case for many years, and finally found his own home.

When the Duke's Mansion was swept by the demons summoned by Tianzun, it was destroyed everywhere, and Yue Xiaomei died tragically. Only this ancestral hall was not disturbed at all.

Zhang Jiuyang once suspected that Tianzun was Zhuge Qixing. If so, it can be explained, because the spirit tablet of the military god Yue Jingzhong is enshrined in this ancestral hall. Zhuge Qixing did not let the demons destroy it because of the brotherhood.

"In fact, when Zhuge Yunhu took over the case, he discovered this suspicious point immediately. After checking, he came to a conclusion."

Yue Shuai sighed and suddenly asked: "Xiao Jiu, I know you are helping Ling'er investigate this case. There are some things I can tell you, but you have thought it over... Do you really want to know?"

...
