"Jiang Ziya, even if you kill Wen Zhong, I will continue to find people to fight against you!" Shen Gongbao said angrily. He spoke to the air.
In the mountains and forests, Shen Gongbao was alone.
He had already heard that Wen Zhong died in Juelong Ridge.
He continued to search for experts in the three mountains and five mountains to help the Yin Shang conquer Xiqi.
Shen Gongbao's character in "The Romance of the Gods" is a villain. He is narrow-minded and will retaliate for his anger.
Before becoming a god, he and Jiang Ziya practiced Taoism in Kunlun Mountain together.
How do they get along?
There should be no contradiction.
why would you say so?
Because Shen Gongbao is a typical villain. He wants to fight for everything, compare with everything, and be better than his fellow disciples in every aspect.
Of course, Shen Gongbao cannot compare to senior senior brothers such as Chan Jiao Twelve Golden Immortals.
But compared to Jiang Ziya and other senior brothers, he is much more powerful.
When practicing with Jiang Ziya, Jiang Ziya was not talented in cultivation, and he was too old, so he only started practicing Taoism in his thirties.
Jiang Ziya's cultivation was extremely slow.
And what about Shen Gongbao?
It could be some monster incarnate.
It itself has cultivation.
Its starting point is much higher than Jiang Ziya's, and he learns Taoism very quickly.
Shen Gongbao is better than Jiang Ziya in every aspect.
Under such circumstances, Shen Gongbao had a "pity" mentality towards Jiang Ziya.
With this mentality, Shen Gongbao was not stingy with his "compassion" side towards Jiang Ziya.
But what about after the incident of becoming a god.
Things have changed.
Yuanshi Tianzun actually chose Jiang Ziya to complete the work of conferring gods instead of Shen Gongbao (a disciple who was better in all aspects), which made Shen Gongbao very disappointed.
For the first time, he felt that he was being compared to Jiang Ziya in some aspects.
Here are a few words from God’s perspective.
In fact, it is not a good thing to preside over the canonization of gods.
Yuanshi Tianzun chose Jiang Ziya because Jiang Ziya was short-lived, had no path to immortality, and was not qualified to be a god, so he gave Jiang Ziya the dirty, tiring, and hard work.
Jiang Ziya has been busy all his life. Although he has become rich in the world, he cannot escape the fate of continuing reincarnation.
This is why Jiang Ziya is like this because he comes from a grassroots background and has no background or backing.
Usually, people who have nothing will be bullied by anyone anywhere and at any time.
What about Shen Gongbao?
In the eyes of Yuanshi Tianzun, he is a disciple who can achieve success in cultivation and is worthy of training. As long as Shen Gongbao continues to practice peacefully, he will one day reach the golden immortal realm.
But Shen Gongbao has a villain mentality and knowledge, and cannot see through the good or bad in this, so he wants to fight Jiang Ziya for everything.
Even the dirty, tiring, and hard work that no one wanted was fought over by Jiang Ziya.
This is a bit silly, and you can’t tell the difference between good and bad.
Shen Gongbao wanted to take away what Jiang Ziya didn't need, so he sent it to the gods.
However, Yuanshi Tianzun did not allow it.
Although the matter of becoming a god is dirty, tiring, and hard work, not everyone can do it.
Yuanshi Tianzun knew that Shen Gongbao's temperament was not suitable for becoming a god.
The title of God is related to the face of Yuanshi Tianzun, and no mistakes are allowed. Therefore, Shen Gongbao cannot win the title of God.
This situation made Shen Gongbao even more dissatisfied and resentful.
He felt: "I am better than Jiang Ziya in everything, so why can only Jiang Ziya be able to become a god, but not me? Is your Yuanshi Tianzun too partial?"
The conscience of heaven and earth.
Yuanshi Tianzun is also partial to Shen Gongbao.
Yuanshi Tianzun's arrangement for Jiang Ziya: all the dirty, tiring, and hard work belongs to Jiang Ziya, and all the good things belong to others. Jiang Ziya will be abandoned sooner or later.
Jiang Ziya is the abandoned son of Yuanshi Tianzun.
Shen Gongbao is the disciple Yuanshi Tianzun wants to continue to train.
However, Shen Gongbao couldn't see through this because of his open mind.
He thought Yuanshi Tianzun was partial to Jiang Ziya.
Therefore, Shen Gongbao was jealous and resentful. He not only resented Yuanshi Tianzun, but also wanted to destroy Jiang Ziya's canonization of the gods.
Ever since, Shen Gongbao jumped up and down, constantly causing trouble and causing trouble to Jiang Ziya.
In doing so, there will be more disasters, and it will also indirectly complete the matter of canonizing the gods and the killing of the twelve golden immortals.
Of course, all this is within Yuanshi Tianzun's calculation.
Shen Gongbao unknowingly became a pawn.
Let’s talk less and get down to business.
When Shen Gongbao knew that Wen Zhong died, he would continue to look for experts and continue to sabotage Jiang Ziya's mission to become a god.
This day.
Shen Gongbao passed by Feilong Cave in Jialong Mountain.
Suddenly I saw a child playing on the cliff.
Shen Gongbao controlled his mount to fly down. His mount is a white-fronted tiger.
When they got to the cliff, Shen Gongbao took a closer look and found that the child on the cliff was not young, but he was too short, like a child.
"Which family are you from?" Shen Gongbao asked.
When Tu Xingsun saw a man asking him, he stepped forward and saluted and said, "Where is the teacher from?" He did not answer Shen Gongbao's question, but asked instead.
"I'm from the island." Shen Gongbao said. He said nonsense.
"Does the teacher intercept or explain the teaching?" Tu Xingsun asked clearly.
"It's Chanjiao." Shen Gongbao didn't hide it this time.
"It turns out to be Master Uncle." Tu Xingsun saluted.
"Who is your master? What is your name?"
"My master is afraid of having grandchildren. My name is Tu Xingsun." Well, both of them have the character "grandson". Don't know what it means.
"How long have you been practicing on the mountain?"
"It's been a hundred years."
"A hundred years?" Shen Gongbao sensed Tu Xingsun's cultivation and felt it was not very good, and said: "I think you can't cultivate well. It will be difficult for you to become an immortal. Why don't you go down the mountain and enjoy the wealth and honor in the world."
"What is wealth in the world?" Tu Xingsun didn't know what wealth in the world was.
"Beautiful clothes and fine food..." Shen Gongbao explained.
"Then how can we enjoy the wealth and honor in the world?" Tu Xingsun was moved.
"What are your skills?"
"I'm good at earth-moving techniques."
"Put it out and let me see."
Tu Xingsun used the Earth Bending Technique and was even more proficient at drilling into the ground than Earthworm. Most people really can't do this.
Earth travel means walking underground.
Earth Escape is the use of earth to perform escape techniques. It is usually performed on the ground, not into the ground.
Therefore, it is not possible to walk underground without knowing how to escape.
"Yes, it's a powerful spell. I'll give you a letter of recommendation and recommend you to go to Deng Jiugong, the commander-in-chief of Sanshanguan. With your own body, you can easily enjoy wealth in the world."
"Deng Jiugong of Sanshan Pass?"
"Yes, Deng Jiugong from Sanshanguan is my good friend." In "The Romance of the Gods", it is not stated that Shen Gongbao and Deng Jiugong knew each other. But they should know each other, otherwise Shen Gongbao's recommendation letter would not go directly to Deng Jiugong. As for how they met, I don’t know. Anyway, Shen Gongbao is a sociable person and can easily get to know others.
"Thank you, uncle. I am very grateful."
"Does your master have an immortal rope?"
"That's right."
"You take two of them with you when you go down the mountain. It can be regarded as a magic weapon for self-protection."
"Okay, uncle."
After Shen Gongbao left, Tu Xingsun took the two immortal ropes that his master feared Liu Sun, as well as five gourds of elixirs, and then went to Sanshan Pass under the ground.
...
Sanshanguan.
Deng Jiugong and the new commander-in-chief Kong Xuan took over the defense of Sanshanguan.
Then, Deng Jiugong ordered the sacrificial flag and prepared to send troops.
At this time, suddenly his subordinate came to report: "General Deng, a dwarf came to deliver a letter."
"Who is writing to?"
"It said it was a letter of recommendation from Shen Gongbao."
"Let that man come in." Deng Jiugong opened Shen Gongbao's letter of recommendation.
It was mentioned above that this person is called Tu Xingsun, he is good at magic, and he hopes to serve under Deng Jiugong.
Deng Jiugong knew that Shen Gongbao was a Taoist.
The Tu Xingsun who was introduced should also be a practitioner, and at least he knew some magic.
"Tu Xingsun pays homage to General Deng." Tu Xingsun came here walking underground, looking gray and dusty.
He is extremely short and covered in dirt. Such an image immediately made Deng Jiugong look down upon him.
I originally wanted to let Tu Xingsun show off his skills and arrange a good job, but... Deng Jiugong didn't want to bother anymore.
"Tu Xingsun, since Brother Shen Dao recommends you, I can't accept it. Let's do it this way. It's difficult to transport food and grass to the rear army. Would you like to be the food inspector of the fifth army?" Deng Jiugong arranged a position at will.
"Okay." Tu Xingsun agreed reluctantly. He also knew that the grain inspector was not a good job; he would not be able to achieve meritorious service, would not be promoted, and was prone to making mistakes.
Deng Jiugong set off.
Tai Luan under his command was the vanguard, and Deng Xiu, the son of Deng Jiugong, was the deputy vanguard. Zhao Sheng, Sun Yan, and Deng Chanyu, the daughter of Deng Jiugong, set out with the army and headed west, with flags fluttering and murderous intent.

…
"Yin Shang sent Deng Jiugong of Sanshan Pass to Xiqi..." Zhang Shao, who was far away on Jinli Island, received the news.
The news was delivered by Shen Gongbao.
Shen Gongbao has many friends.
There are many sources of information and it is timely.
Recently, Zhang Shao found Shen Gongbao and asked Shen Gongbao to deliver news about Xiqi.
Shen Gongbao readily agreed.
He hoped that Zhang Shao could continue to cause trouble for Jiang Ziya.
"Deng Jiugong is only a general, not a right-winger. He will definitely not be able to defeat Jiang Ziya." Zhang Shao looked unhappy. He hoped that Yin Shang could send experts to conquer Xiqi, so that he could secretly deal with those enemies.
"By the way, Shen Gongbao also recommended Tu Xingsun, the apprentice of Ailiu Sun, to Deng Jiugong. If Jiang Ziya's men kill Tu Xingsun, will this cause a fight between Jiang Ziya and Ai Liusun."
"This can be planned. Maybe it can be like this..." Zhang Shao started planning in the dark cave.
…
Deng Jiugong's troops marched on the road for more than a month and finally arrived at Xiqi City.
"Marshal Qi: In front of us is the east gate of Xiqi. Please order us to make a decision." Tan Ma reported to the Chinese army.
"Set up camp." Deng Jiugong ordered.
Jiang Ziya still didn't stop the enemy in Qishan or somewhere, and kept waiting in Xiqi City for the enemy to come to his door.
This approach actually disturbs the people.
After all, we fight together.
At the very least, the city would have to be closed down for several days, not to mention accidental injuries and killings.
Prime Minister Jiang Ziya's Mansion.
Jiang Ziya already knew that Deng Jiugong was coming.
I asked him who Deng Jiugong was.
Chao Tian stood by and said, "Deng Jiu Gong is a very talented general, and he has no special skills."
Jiang Ziya smiled and said: "It's easy to defeat a general, but it's hard to guard against a right path." He looked down on Deng Jiugong a little.
…
night.
At Deng Jiugong's camp, Qian Sihai came.
He came to convey Xiao Sheng's rules.
"Oh? Monks are not allowed to use spells and magic weapons to attack mortals. I already know about this. Just in case the other party uses spells to deal with it first..." Deng Jiugong expressed his concerns, worried that the other party would attack first and he would suffer a loss.
"Don't worry about this. When you two are fighting, there are thirty-six Tiangang and seventy-two earthly demons watching the battle. Any monk who violates this will be severely punished," Qian Sihai said.
"Can you ask Mr. Big Dipper to help me..." Deng Jiugong wanted Xiao Sheng to help deal with Xiqi.
"Heaven cannot interfere in mortal affairs. Also, Xingjun specifically stated that Deng Yuchan's flying stones can only attack the opponent's monks, not mortal generals. Similarly, Tu Xingsun's magic skills are also average." Qian Sihai finished speaking. gone.
"Yu Chan's flying stones? Tu Xingsun's magic?" Deng Jiugong was a little surprised by what Qian Sihai said specifically.
"Could it be that Tu Xingsun's abilities are extraordinary?" Deng Jiugong was a little curious about Tu Xingsun.
…
The next day.
Tai Luan, a subordinate of Deng Jiugong, came to invite him to fight.
"I'm willing to go!" Nangong Shi asked for a fight.
outside the city.
Nearby grove.
Xiao Sheng, Empress Shiji, Qian Sihai and others started the mode of watching and eating.
All I saw was the battlefield.
Nangong Shi shouted: "Who is coming?"
Tai Luan replied: "I am under the command of Commander-in-Chief Deng of Sanshan Pass, and I am also the pioneer officer Tai Luan. Who are you?"
"I am Nangong Shi, the general of Xiqi!"
"Nangong Shi, if you don't abide by the rules of ministers, you are rebels..."
"Tai Luan, I heard that the Grand Master, the Four Generals of the Demon Family, Zhang Guifang and others have died, and you will not end well..."
The two exchanged some words and started fighting.
The weapons used by both of them were broadswords.
Their martial arts skills are also extraordinary.
Back and forth, thirty rounds passed, with no winner or loser.
At this time, Tai Luan deliberately used a flaw to lure Nangong Shi to attack.
Nangong Shi was careless and attacked directly without any precautions. (After all, they just defeated Grand Master Wen Zhongwen, and all of Xiqi became proud soldiers.)
Tai Luan didn't show any mercy. When he saw Nangong's attack, he stabbed him viciously.
At the critical moment, Nangong Shi quickly dodged and avoided his head, but was hit in the shoulder.
However, fortunately, Nangong Shi had armor on his body and blocked the blow and managed to escape with his life.
He hurriedly drove his horse and fled back to the city.
Tai Luan was behind, so he took the opportunity to kill him and returned to the camp victoriously.
"Marshal Qi: The last general failed and failed to kill Nangong Shi."
"Winning the first battle is already a meritorious service. Although it cannot kill Nangong Shi, it still frustrates Xiqi's spirit, so he should be rewarded!" Deng Jiugong said.
"Thank you, Marshal!" Tai Luan said respectfully.
Deng Jiugong was strict in running the army, and his men were all capable generals. From Tai Luan, we can see that Deng Jiugong was extraordinary.
Let's also say that Nangong Shi was defeated and entered the city. He entered the Prime Minister's Mansion and said shamefully: "I have betrayed the Prime Minister's great trust and lost the first battle. It is a crime of death."
"Victory or defeat is a common thing for a soldier. There is no need to blame yourself. Just don't underestimate the enemy next time you fight." Jiang Ziya said. He had just watched the fight on the tower and knew that Nangong Shi had underestimated the enemy.
"Yes!" Nangong Shi retreated with a face of shame.
The next day.
Deng Jiugong personally led a large army to the city.
Jiang Ziya also led the team out of the city.
Both sides are generals.
The teams we lead are all carefully trained.
The military formation is neat, both offensive and defensive, and they are all upright troops.
Seeing this battle, both sides secretly praised the other side for being a worthy rival.
"Jiang Ziya invites you!" Deng Jiugong clapped his horse and stepped forward.
"Marshal Deng is polite!" Jiang Ziya also took a few steps forward.
"Ji Fa is innocent. You are a famous scholar in Kunlun Mountain... Surrender quickly, otherwise we will all be destroyed and it will be too late to regret."
"Marshal Deng, King Shou has no way, the world has returned to Zhou... In my humble opinion, it is better to return the troops quickly, otherwise I will learn from the mistakes of the Grand Master."
Deng Jiugong and Jiang Ziya finished spraying each other.
The two sides went to war.
Deng Jiugong is basically a mortal who uses martial arts.
Although there were many monks on Jiang Ziya's side, they did not dare to use spells indiscriminately.
Because, there are 108 people watching the battle in the air, ready to arrest those who violate the rules at any time.
Deng Jiugong and Nezha fought.
Deng Xiu and Huang Tianhua fight.
Tai Luan and Wu Ji fight.
Zhao Sheng and Tai Dian fight.
Sun Yan and Jin Zha fight.
Deng Chanyu and Yang Jian fight.
etc.
A melee begins.
Tu Xingsun was away supervising the grain supply and had not yet arrived in Xiqi.
Deng Jiugong dispatched all his generals, but Jiang Ziya did not try his best.
Jiang Ziya has many disciples here. Although he is not allowed to use magic, his martial arts are also very powerful. Deng Jiugong does not have that many generals.
After fighting for a while.
Jiang Ziya sent a few more generals here.
With more victory than less, Deng Jiugong was defeated and retreated back to the camp.
In the end, Deng Chanyu fired a series of flying rocks to repel the pursuit of Yang Jian and others.
Among them, Nezha, Huang Tianhua, and Yang Jian were all hit in the face by flying rocks and were disfigured.
By the time the monks on Jiang Ziya's side wanted to use magic, Deng Jiugong's men had already withdrawn into the camp.
