Chapter 1252 Who Is Worried About His Resignation?
"Don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you." Lu Ya said calmly, as if he could see the uneasiness in Qin Yao's heart.
Qin Yao laughed dryly: "I know, after all, it will not do you any good to attack me."
"No."
Lu Ya waved his hand and looked into his eyes: "The reason why I don't attack you is because I still have expectations for you. Shen Gongbao, you are still young now, and you may not realize the meaning of clan and responsibility. You feel that you are not living well." Good things are the most important thing. When you get older, stronger, have a higher status, and understand the true meaning of responsibility, you will probably develop a desire to protect and save."
Qin Yao: "..."
People who are not from my race must have different minds. How could he not understand this?
But the problem is, Lao Deng, I have a demon body and a human heart. Even if I can realize the meaning of community and responsibility in the future, I will not turn to the demon clan!
You have misjudged the devil by "favoring" me like this.
"Don't you have anything to say?" Seeing Qin Yao's silence, Lu Ya asked softly.
Qin Yao took a deep breath and said: "Although it is difficult for me to hold a big position, I will never forget my origins. If I am weak, I can only take care of myself. If I am strong, I can also help the monster clan."
Lu Ya smiled slightly and said: "Remember what you said, and you must do what you say, otherwise, I will have to argue with you about the Chaos Clock."
Qin Yao said solemnly: "I will never forget it."
Lu Ya nodded and said: "With your words, I can leave with peace of mind. Yu Yuan is dead, and I am too lazy to go back to Zhou Jun's tent to talk nonsense with Jiang Ziya. You can say goodbye to him for me."
Only then did Qin Yao really feel at ease, knowing that the other party was moved by his words that if you are weak, you can save yourself, but if you are strong, you can help the monsters.
Although he didn't know if there would be any plans against him in the future, at least the other party wouldn't do anything against him while he didn't know what was going on.
at the same time.
Xu Gai, the gatekeeper of Jiepai Gate, carefully stepped into the city gate tower. He glanced at the headless corpse on the ground and the old master sitting on the stone steps of the main seat. He bowed and said, "My condolences, master."
Wen Zhong stood up slowly, took out his grand master's seal and marshal's tiger talisman, and gently placed them on the main table: "You sent someone eight hundred miles away to rush to Chaoge to present these two things. Give it to your Majesty. By the way, please give me a message. I am old and exhausted physically and mentally. I am no longer able to be of great use. I am begging for my bones in front of your Majesty. I hope that you will take care of me."
Xu Gai was shocked and his eyes suddenly widened: "No, Grand Master, if Yin Shang leaves you, who can resist the Zhou army?"
Wen Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "Even if I was here, I didn't stop the Zhou army? Lu Ya was right. Heaven has never treated me poorly. Instead, I have been going against heaven. I was the one who killed Brother Zhao Dao. , killed the four brothers of the Mo family, killed the Tianjun of Jin'ao Island, killed Yu Hua, Yu Yuan... If this continues, I don't know how many brothers in the Jie Sect will die at my hands."
Xu Gai: "..."
Wen Zhong came to him step by step, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder: "Do as I say, Mr. Xu. Goodbye."
After saying that, the old commander strode forward, walked out of the city gate tower in a blink of an eye, and took off into the sky on Mo Qilin.
Xu Gai sat alone in the attic for a long time, thinking for two whole hours, and then he did what Wen Zhong told him, and on the other hand he summoned the backbone of the Jiepai Pass, and said in a solemn voice: "The Grand Master has surrendered and left. I'll wait." Where to go?”
The generals were dumbfounded, and the highest-ranking Sanxian Fajie asked in astonishment: "What did you say?"
Xu Gai had no choice but to repeat: "I said, the grand master has surrendered and has left with his seal. What should we people do? Should we flee or surrender?"
As for "war", he couldn't even think about it.
Grand Master Wen, who was the best in the Yin Shang Dynasty, was defeated repeatedly in front of the Zhou army. He was a man who was not good at everything. How could he lead an army to resist the Zhou army?
"Impossible." Fajie said decisively: "The Grand Master is by no means a person who will give up easily."
Xu Gai said: "Easy? Why is it so easy? From attacking Xiqi to being counterattacked by Xiqi. From guarding Sishui Pass to now losing Sishui, Qinglong and Jiameng Passes, how many times has the Grand Master lost?"
What's more, today an ancient immortal broke the ban and killed his senior brother Yu Yuan in person, but let him alone... Do you call this kind of giving up easy? "
Dharma precept: "..."
"When the Grand Master was here, it was very difficult for us to resist. Now that the Grand Master is gone, how can we resist?" Suddenly a general whispered in the crowd.
"Yes, yes." Someone immediately agreed: "Running away means losing all authority. How about we surrender?"
"Surrender, Commander-in-Chief."
"Stop."
Looking at the frightened faces, Fa Jie sighed, got up and walked towards the door.
Different road non-phase plan!
That evening.
Xu Gai, the commander-in-chief of Jiepai Pass, sent an envoy to discuss surrender with the Zhou army.
After Xu Gai asked for surrender, he was still the commander-in-chief of Jiepaiguan, and the positions of his officials remained unchanged. If the Zhou army is willing to agree to this condition, he will open the city and surrender early tomorrow morning.
However, after receiving Xu Gai's surrender application, Jiang Ziya was not happy at all.
no.
Has it dropped like this?
Where is Wen Zhong?
Isn't he at Jiepaiguan?
Or is it that the other party is pretending to surrender, and the main purpose is to lead the Zhou army into Jiepaiguan and catch the turtle in the urn?
Jiang Ziya couldn't figure out the reason for a while and couldn't tell the truth, so he sent someone to invite Qin Yao to the commander's tent to ask for advice.
Qin Yao was also a little confused, so he went to Jiepai Pass in person and found that the guarding tortoise shell and Wen Zhong were missing. If he wanted to catch the turtle in the jar, at least the tortoise shell should not be removed, right?
When he returned to the Zhou army's tent and told Jiang Shang the result, Jiang Shang said that he would wait and see tomorrow. If Xu Gai really wanted to surrender, he could agree to his conditions.
The next day, Jiang Shang summoned Xu Gai's envoy and told him that the Zhou army could agree to Xu Gai's request on the condition that the other party personally brought people out to accept the surrender.
The envoy rushed back to Jiepai Pass, but Xu Gai was waiting in front of the gate with a group of generals from Jiepai Pass, and there was not even a warrior holding a spear on the left and right.
Under such circumstances, the Zhou army easily took over Jiepai Pass. Afterwards, Jiang Shang couldn't wait to call Xu Gai to the city gate tower to inquire about the inside story. After learning that Wen Zhong had been enlightened by Lu Ya's words and chose to let go, he was like being struck by lightning and was completely numb.
Wen Zhong ran away, what should I do with my great cause of conferring gods?
Who else can be like Wen Zhong, with the support of Jiejiao, a wide network of people, and can continuously send people to meet the disaster?
Jiang Ziya panicked.
He was more panicked than ever before.
In desperation, he could only invite Qin Yao again to discuss this matter with him in secret.
Although he now has a complicated feeling about this junior brother, he really can't find anyone to discuss with except him.
After all, even the Dragon King of the East China Sea beside him was a guard arranged by the other party.
After listening to Jiang Shang's story, Qin Yao was really confused.
How to say, this was beyond his expectations.
In his eyes, even if Wen Zhong clearly realized the nature of his "conferring gods hook", it would be difficult for him to abandon the Shang Dynasty where he had served his whole life.
After all, some things are far more important than life for stubborn and determined people.
As a result, he didn't expect Wen Zhong to leave like this, so suddenly and so simply.
After a long silence, Qin Yao slowly said, "We must find someone to replace Wen Zhong's role, otherwise my senior brother's mission to be a god will become more difficult."
Jiang Shang smiled bitterly and said, "I know, but the question is, who can replace Wen Zhong? I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I can't think of anyone."
Qin Yao did think of it, but he couldn't say it.
Even from his relatively dark psychology, Jiang Shang might not have not thought of it, but wanted to say it through his mouth, so that the cause and effect would fall on himself.
After all, this job is not an easy job. It is too easy to offend people, and the risk is also great. If you don't do it well, you will die and eventually return to the list of gods.
"My senior brother can't think of it, so I can't think of it even more."
Jiang Ziya's face froze, but he had to guide him: "Then let's think about it now, who has an inseparable relationship with the Shang Dynasty and has the qualifications to invite the Jiejiao group of immortals."
Qin Yao pretended to be thinking hard and was speechless for a long time.
Jiang Ziya was helpless. Wasn't this junior brother very smart in the past? Why hasn't he figured it out yet?
Then, he suddenly reacted and worried: Could it be that the other party guessed his intention?
"I can't think of it, brother, why don't you find other brothers to discuss it." After a long time, Qin Yao said: "After all, whether it is wisdom, city, or ability and combat power, I am the bottom of the Twelve Golden Immortals. They must have a way."
Jiang Ziya: "..."
He is basically sure now that Shen Gongbao saw his thoughts.
But among the Twelve Golden Immortals, he can only offend this one. He really dare not offend other old-fashioned Golden Immortals, so he said: "Junior brother, what do you think of Yin Jiao?"
Qin Yao waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, Yin Jiao is from my Chan Sect, and has nothing to do with Jiejiao. How can he invite the immortals of Jiejiao?"
Jiang Ziya said faintly; "What if Yin Jiao abandoned Chan and joined Jie for the sake of the Yin family's country?"
Qin Yao said seriously: "I don't agree with your approach. It's too unfair to that child."
In fact, apart from Wen Zhong, Yin Jiao is indeed the best candidate.
First of all, he has great righteousness. Among the five righteousnesses of heaven, earth, kinship, monarch, and teacher, kinship and monarch are before teacher, and King Zhou is both his father and his king.
Secondly, Jiejiao really accepts everyone. Whether it is the original novel of Fengshen or this version of King Wu's attack on King Zhou, Shen Gongbao can turn to Jiejiao and worship Tongtian as his teacher, not to mention Yin Jiao who has the blood of the human king.
For Jiejiao, supporting Yin Jiao is far better than supporting King Yin.
After all, it was King Yin who offended Nuwa, not Yin Jiao. As long as King Zhou died, the threat from Nuwa Palace would be reduced by more than half. At that time, it would be a one-on-one battle between Jiejiao and Chanjiao, and the chance of winning would be much higher.
However, in this struggle, Yin Jiao is destined to be a victim. No matter who wins or loses in the end, he will not have a good ending...
Jiang Shang did not expect that 'Shen Gongbao' would actually say this. After a slight pause, he spoke earnestly: "Junior brother, looking at the three realms, there is really no one more suitable than Yin Jiao."
Qin Yao did not bite the bait, waved his hand and said: "Senior brother, you should tell Senior Brother Guangchengzi about this. Why are you advising me?"
Jiang Shang's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and said: "Isn't this a discussion with you?"
Qin Yao simply said: "I have nothing to do with this."
Jiang Shang: "..."
Qin Yao did not fall into the trap, and Jiang Shang had no choice but to ride the four-legged beast to the Taoyuan Cave in Jiuxian Mountain to find the eldest brother Guangchengzi to discuss the matter.
As long as Shen Gongbao said that Yin Jiao was OK, he could explain the matter in the name of Shen Gongbao.
But after Shen Gongbao sternly refused, he could only persuade Guangchengzi with the great cause of becoming a god. Not surprisingly, Guangchengzi felt disgusted with him...
"I never agree with this." Guangchengzi flatly refused without even pretending to think.
To say how deep his friendship is with Yin Jiao, in fact, he doesn't have any.
The main reason is that Yin Jiao was chosen by him to block the murderous calamity and was his amulet. If the Conferred Godship is over, this favor will be done. But now the Conferred Godship is not over yet, how can he hand over Yin Jiao to be used as consumables?
Jiang Ziya could only advise again and again, hoping that the senior brother would put the overall situation first.
Guangchengzi gritted his teeth with hatred, but under the requirement of putting the overall situation first, he had to think of a way to break the situation, and finally said in a solemn voice: "Although most of the immortals of Jiejiao are wet-born eggs, people wearing lins and fur, they are also You're not a fool, the traces of Yin Jiao's rebellion plan are too strong, and they will most likely see the flaws..."
Jiang Ziya hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter even if they see flaws. For them, Yin Jiao is just a sign. It is much better to support Yin Jiao than to support Yin Zhou. Therefore, they should not refuse, but will think about how to make the lie come true. "
Guangchengzi said loudly: "Junior brother, don't interrupt yet, listen to me. I think the best situation is to invite Wen Zhong to come out again. We can discuss how to force him out, rather than looking for a replacement."
Jiang Ziya: "..."
After a moment of silence, he asked softly: "Could it be that senior brother has a plan?"
Guangchengzi nodded and said: "You can write a letter to King Zhou and secretly explain the powerful relationship while mocking him. King Zhou is not stupid. After understanding the importance of Wen Zhong, he will definitely find a way to invite him again. The other party came out."
Jiang Ziya was thoughtful...
A few days later.
Jiang Ziya's letter was carried into the Chaoge Palace by a colorful bird, and was thrown in front of King Zhou who was furious in the palace.
After King Zhou read the letter, he became even more furious and overturned the table, frightening His Highness and his ministers to kneel to the ground.
Under such circumstances, Daji slowly entered the palace, calmed King Zhou's thunderous anger, and then explained the powerful relationship to King Zhou, making him truly realize that the Yin and Shang Dynasties were indeed inseparable from Wen Zhong. Tianyuzhu.
With this understanding, he asked people to search for the trace of the Grand Master as soon as possible, but there was still no news. After wasting a few days, he suddenly remembered a place, so he led his soldiers to the countryside where Wen Zhong met his grandfather. Sure enough, In a thatched cottage, I found a white-haired old man dressed in commoner clothes...
