Chapter 8: Swallowing the Golden Toad
Looking at Jinao Island with a vague fairy aura behind her, Xiao Sheng couldn't help but look back thoughtfully.
Previously, Xiao Sheng was taken by the position of the saint of the Master Tongtian Sect, so he didn't think much about it. But now it seems that Master Tongtian Sect probably has guessed his purpose. Therefore, he had the opportunity to listen to a saint's sermon.
It is better to see it at first sight than to hear it. Xiao Sheng understood it today. In his opinion, the "human taste" in the Tongtian Sect Master seems to be more important than the "immortal taste".
This made Xiao Sheng seem to have grasped something in his mind, but he still couldn't understand it. After some hard thinking, he had to let go of the doubts in his heart for the time being.
However, looking at the golden toad in his hand, Xiao Sheng couldn't help but smile. He exchanged a saint's sermon and another sacred spiritual treasure. No matter how he counted it, he felt it was worth it!
Besides, he also holds a lot of cause and effect on the side of the An Sect. He may be able to use the twelve fellow Taoists in the future.
After thinking about it this way, he suddenly felt less heartbroken about the merit power lost that day!
"Qua~"
Suddenly a frog croaker interrupted his thoughts. When Xiao Sheng looked at the treasure-spouting golden toad in front of him, he couldn't help but chuckled: "Little guy, you didn't even call me, I didn't have enough to eat for you anyway!"
This treasure-swalking golden toad is like what the leader of Tongtian Sect said, as if it were life but not life, as if it was death but not death, it is a rare treasure.
Although it looks like a golden toad, and can jump and scream, it is a real innate spiritual treasure, but it is the most ordinary low-grade innate spiritual treasure!
Although this treasure is not of high quality, it has a unique ability: it can absorb treasure qi and turn it into luck and money to spit it out.
If there is endless treasure qi for it to absorb, it can produce a continuous stream of luck and money. In Xiao Sheng's view, with such superpowers, the level of the innate spiritual treasure is irrelevant!
But in the eyes of others, this treasure-swallowing golden toad is just a useless existence. Otherwise, it would not have been idle by the Tongtian Sect Master until now and finally given it to him.
Among the disciples of Jie Sect, everyone retreated to this treasure, fearing that their spiritual treasure energy would be absorbed by the golden toad and would be greatly damaged.
"Hahaha! It turns out that there are many horses that are often present, but there are not many men!"
Thinking of the gloating eyes of the disciples of the Jie Sect before, Xiao Sheng gently patted Jin Chan's head and said, "Don't be anxious, at least I will find you a place to eat so that you can have a good meal!"
"Qua~"
“Hahaha~”
...
Under Xiqi City, in the Zhou camp tent, King Wu Ji Fa looked at Xiao Sheng and sighed excitedly: "The immortal elder is so hard for me!"
Hearing this extremely sad figure, Xiao Sheng felt a chill on his back, and then he quietly moved a little further away from King Wu.
"My Lord Lao has been waiting for a long time, I am rude!"
"The immortal chief is saying nothing. As long as the immortal chief can come, it will be worth it for how long I wait!"
After comforting the overly enthusiastic Ji Fa, Xiao Sheng greeted everyone in the tent one by one.
Looking at Guang Chengzi and others' still decadent expressions, he couldn't help but sigh softly and comforted him a few words.
After everyone sat down and talked about the current war, Xiao Sheng realized that the fairy Bixiao and Qiongxiao had already died on the list.
Jiang Shang was still sighing, "It's a pity that Yunxiao is not here. He must have captured Sanxiao in one net in the previous robbery camp and avenged all the senior brothers!"
Guangchengzi, Huanglong Zhenren and others couldn't help but look angry when they heard this. When they thought that their cultivation had disappeared, they were all thanks to Sanxiao, they couldn't help but feel angry.
Xiao Sheng didn't feel much in his heart when he heard this. If Yunxiao was in trouble, he might be a little touched.
At that time, Yunxiao was the only one who felt compassion for him and did not want to hurt his life. As for the two fairies, they had already been devastated by the gods and had a murderous intention!
However, Xiao Sheng suddenly thought of something. After Wen Zhong lost the Ten Heavenly Lords and the Two Fairies, he was now the weakest time.
So he couldn't help but speak to King Wu: "King, Wen Zhong is now losing his troops and losing his generals, which is the most empty time.
There is a way that God will suffer the consequences if he does not take it. Why don’t we remove Wen Zhong’s camp and completely open the road to the Eastern Expedition?”
King Wu was stunned when he heard this. Because he had been attacking Zhou defenders before, he had not reacted for a while, and now the offensive and defensive momentum has changed.
Just when he felt that this statement was reasonable and was overjoyed and wanted to send troops, he suddenly heard Jiang Shang get up and exclaim, "No! That guy Wen Zhong is going to run away!"
Seeing his expression, everyone couldn't help but ask what happened.
Jiang Shang said with a serious expression: "Wen Zhong was a master of Jie Sect, and his cultivation of Taoism is not weak. When King Zhou's father and King Shang Emperor Yi were in power, he had already fought south and north.
Therefore, he would never allow such an offensive and defensive change to happen. Moreover, it was too late to transfer troops at this time. He would inevitably retreat first and join forces with Deng Jiugong, the general of Sanshan Pass."
Speaking of this, Jiang Shang asked King Wu for an order, hoping that the entire army would attack and wipe out Wen Zhong's army.
When King Wu Ji Fa heard this, he immediately said with a sigh: "Everything is based on the Prime Minister's order!"
Seeing this, Jiang Shang was not long-winded, but saw him immediately dispatching troops and ordering:
"Senior Brother Guangchengzi, you will set up an ambush outside Taohualing, stop Wen Zhong and prevent him from entering Jiameng Pass;
Senior Brother Chi Jingzi: You will lead the first division’s armored soldiers to the foot of Yanshan Mountain to ambush Wen Zhong. He will not allow him to enter the fifth level. Two senior brothers, please go quickly!"
Then Jiang Shang ordered the other people to go out to ambush, and he must kill Wen Zhong.
This is not because there is any personal grudge between Jiang Shang and Wen Zhong, but because Jiang Shang knows the meaning of Wen Zhong's existence.
Wen Zhong, as the regent minister personally appointed by the former king, Emperor Yi, and King Zhou's teacher when he was young, was the only one in the Shang court that made King Zhou feel afraid of.
When King Zhou wanted to indulge in will, Wen Zhong was the last rope in his heart.
In Jiang Shang's opinion, if he was Wen Zhong, no matter how urgent the war was on the front line, he would not have left Chaoge. His role can only be maximized in Chaoge's court!
But as the saying goes: Those in the authorities are confused and bystanders are Qing, and Wen Zhong is afraid he has not realized how important he is to the Shang court.
Otherwise, after King Zhou ascended the throne, he would not have fought in the north and fought against the unjust officials as in the previous dynasty.
After all the ambushes were laid, Jiang Shang looked at the remaining people in the tent and couldn't help but look serious:
"This time the siege is mainly Wen Zhong. As long as you can kill Wen Zhong, you can make a decision on the battlefield!"
After everyone agreed, Xiao Sheng also came out of the camp and attacked the business camp.
Looking at the mighty army, Xiao Sheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "The demise of the Shang Dynasty will be nowhere to be restored since today!"
However, Xiao Sheng realized again that now is a world where heaven and man rule together. As long as the Jie Sect can win in the end, there is no chance of the Shang Dynasty!
"Haha, this is quite consistent with the teachings of the Jie Sect!" Xiao Sheng couldn't help but laugh.
However, although everyone was busy, Xiao Sheng was fishing in the troubled waters.
As the saying goes, no desires are not demanding! He is not greedy for the wealth and honor of Qi Zhou, nor does he want to be a god from heaven. He just wants to survive this great disaster safely and become a free and carefree god.
Therefore, if Wen Zhong can escape his life today, his luck will not be extinguished; if his death is gone, then Xiao Sheng will be happy to send him to heaven and to be the gods.
However, when Jiang Shang invaded the Shang camp, he realized that this place was already an empty camp. He was very upset and saw that the tea in the cup was still warm, so he continued to chase the whole way without hesitation.
However, just as Xiao Sheng was walking in the mountains, he suddenly heard a whisper in his ears: "Fellow Taoist is so casual, I'm sorry for your great reputation!"
Xiao Sheng was shocked and looked up and saw a dignified palace fairy with a dignified appearance and noble temperament coming out on a phoenix.
He felt aroused, and he remembered someone. But wasn't that said he had violated the rules of heaven and went to earth for disasters, so he was demoted to the Qingluan Douge of Phoenix Mountain to practice, and he regretted it and reformed himself?
Why do I look quite comfortable now, not like I am being demoted!
So he chuckled and said, "I am just a scattered person in the mountains. How can I be famous? The fairy is joking!"
After saying that, he couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Dare you ask, Princess Longji is in front of you?"
Princess Longji couldn't help but pause when she heard this and asked in confusion: "Have you ever seen me?"
Xiao Sheng was sure that it was indeed her.
So he explained with a faint smile: "I have never seen the princess before, but I heard that the princess was practicing in the Qingluan Fighting Palace, and her mount was Qingluan, so I just guessed it in my heart!"
Princess Longji's eyes flashed in her eyes, and she didn't know what she was thinking. She suddenly saw her smiling and said:
"Longji has lived in the mountains for a long time. Today, he was just out for a trip under the quiet and thoughtful movement. I accidentally met a fellow Taoist. I wonder if my friend has free time, how about coming to my Phoenix Mountain to see?"
Xiao Sheng was naturally irresistible. Besides, he was also curious about why Long Ji appeared here, so he just followed her.
So Princess Longji took the Qingluan in front and led the way, and Xiao Sheng drove the clouds behind. Although the speed of escape was almost the same, Xiao Sheng only felt that his home was like a guard.
He couldn't help but swear in his heart that he would definitely build a cool mount when he found an opportunity!
