Autumn turns to winter, the cold wind blows on the ground, and the white grass breaks.

When Immortal Jin Ting returned to Fangfang Mountain from Yuzhang, it was the first snowfall in Suzhou.

The cold wind blew from the north, whistling, and the only thing that could be heard was the howling in the forest, which penetrated people like a blue owl.

The snow was falling heavily, and the dripping water turned into ice.

There are no pilgrims on Fangfang Mountain. At this time of year, it is not safe even to stay at home, let alone go out.

The snowflakes are light, but heavier than fallen flowers in the cold wind. They flutter on the snow-white plush cloak of Jinting Immortal, tumble, and then reluctantly drift away with the cold wind.

General Shuibu shivered and said, "It's really too cold."

Animals are naturally afraid of the cold, and snakes and insects rarely move around in winter. The colder it gets, the less energetic he becomes.

However, although he hated the weather, General Minzubu's expression was bright and somewhat high-spirited.

Immortal Jinting looked up at the wildly dancing snowflakes and said, "It's indeed too cold. It's colder than in previous years."

He turned back to look at General Shuibu and said, "But Tang Jie, it's not time for you to rest yet."

General Tang Jie of the Ministry of Water. Originally, the Great Immortal Jin Ting didn't care what his name was. Generals always come and go, but when they were in Yuzhang, they inevitably had more intersections, so they learned his name.

General Tang Jie said: "I understand, the matter in Yuzhang is over, and we still have to go to Yuezhou."

"Yuezhou." Immortal Jinting nodded, with an incomprehensible look on his face. He didn't know what he was thinking about.

When we returned to the upper mountain, it was also snowing in the back mountain.

The four seasons in the back mountain are the same as those outside. The wind from outside the mountain will blow in and return to the outside. This design is very unique and can also detect the personality of the Wutong God.

The general divine realm is not connected with the human world, just like the divine realm of the City Emperor God, which is in the realm of yin and yang and is not affected by celestial phenomena.

It is not difficult for the Wutong God to do this. The divine realm is not completely dependent on the mountain above.

But Wutong Shen still chooses to communicate with the outside world, and the four seasons in the mountains are distinct from the outside world. Only the Great King Tongkuang, because he likes beautiful scenery, can reverse the vitality of flowers and trees by himself, so that they can bloom undefeated in all seasons.

Wutong God attaches great importance to believers, even more than City Emperor God. But this kind of attention cannot be regarded as a good thing.

Immortal Jinting and Tang Jie entered the Baoguang Hall. When King Tonghui saw that his expression had returned to its original calm, he smiled and said, "It seems that the Immortal's cultivation in Yuzhang has been quite effective."

Jinting Daxian said: "The days of cultivating one's moral character are indeed comfortable. I hope that the king will give me more leisurely work in the future, but I am afraid that the king will not agree."

King Tonghui said: "You know that we are short of manpower. If we don't count on you, who else can we count on?"

Immortal Jinting shook his head and said, "How is Yuezhou?"

King Tong Hui looked at the snowstorm outside the palace and said, "It should be done soon."

The cold winter is not a good time for fighting. Soldiers who are hungry and cold will only flee and will not have fighting spirit.

However, the situation in Yuezhou is different.

King Wu stationed troops in Yuezhou City for more than a month, from autumn to winter, until it snowed heavily.

The Yuezhou envoys fought for the city and refused to surrender. To win the city, more time and patience were needed.

However, King Tong Hui said: "The governor of Yuezhou is loyal and refuses to betray his master, but he is not the only one in Yuezhou city. If he refuses to surrender, naturally there are people who are willing to surrender."

Yuezhou City was blocked and the flow of food and water had long been cut off.

Water can be drawn from wells, but food is eaten day by day. During this heavy snowfall, if we didn't store some charcoal fires, many people would freeze to death.

The King of Wu had stationed troops for more than a month, but he had no intention of withdrawing, and there was no attack from the imperial court. People in Yuezhou City had long been panic-stricken.

If the soldiers and horses in the city do not have enough food, clothing, and charcoal fire, they will have to attack the rich and powerful in the city.

With internal and external troubles, the capture of Yuezhou is just around the corner.

Immortal Jinting asked curiously: "Does your Majesty know this clearly?"

King Tonghui laughed and said: "This is an interesting story. The emperor of Gusu Dacheng had already subdued the emperor of Yuezhou. He tried to cooperate internally and externally to help the King of Wu enter the city, but he was discovered by the warlocks around the Yuezhou envoy. The Yuezhou envoy acted immediately. We sent troops to the City Emperor Temple, demolished the City Emperor Temple, chopped down the statue of the City Emperor, and hung the statue’s head on the city gate for more than a month.”

Immortal Jinting couldn't help but laugh and said: "Then the Emperor of Gusu Dacheng has lost all his face?"

King Tong Hui said: "It's just a loss of face and a loss of prestige. If he hadn't taken into account the identity of the inspector, I'm afraid he would have wanted to pick off his head himself."

"If he had the guts, he would be able to do it, not to mention the Dacheng Emperor of Gusu, but all the capital cities in the world." Immortal Jinting shook his head.

The two laughed at the Great City Emperor together, and the Great Immortal Jinting also understood why the Great King Tonghui knew so clearly.

Without the protection of gods in Yuezhou, a hundred evil spirits would run rampant and rampant gods could come and go freely. With the rampant gods of the Wind and Fire tribes inquiring about information, and King Tonghui being proficient in fate, he naturally knew that Yuezhou was approaching its end.

Immortal Jinting then asked: "Then when will we set off?"

King Tonghui said: "Let's rest for two days and wait for the weather to clear before setting off. There is no need to wait for Yuezhou to be defeated. We must occupy the counties under Yuezhou first. But you must be careful. The southeastern air is deep and I can't see it." It’s clear, I’m afraid of crouching tiger, hidden dragon, so you have to act with extreme caution.”

Immortal Jinting took the order.

King Tong Hui rewarded Jinting Immortal and General Tang Jie again. This time Jinting Immortal did not make any great achievements, so the reward was naturally not much, and when it came to Tang Jie, it was even less.

Tang Jie was originally very high-spirited, hoping to get more attention and be reused, but in the end he was just sent away with some incense.

After leaving Baoguang Hall, Tang Jie was a little distracted and discouraged.

Although there was no major battle during the trip to Yuzhang, Tang Jie worked diligently and put in a lot of effort to build the Wutong Temple.

Jinting Daxian is an unstable factor, and no one dares to provoke him. In the end, General Shuibu took care of everything, but now, he just gave him some incense and sent him away, not even a verbal praise. .

The snow was heavy and the wind was cold. Tang Jie was a little stiff and dazed.

Immortal Jinting had already walked a few steps away when he suddenly turned around and said, "Tang Jie, I want to go back to Shenjing Palace and meet you again in two days."

Tang Jie shuddered and hurriedly followed, saying: "I'm waiting for the commander at Shihu."

Immortal Jinting nodded and said: "Thank you. When I come back from Yuezhou, I will ask you for credit, but you don't have any expectations."

Tang Jie felt a little embarrassed and said with a smile, "Thank you, Commander, for your support."

The Great Immortal Jinting sneered and said: "What you say is not what you mean."

He turned into a white smoke and disappeared without a trace in this windy and snowy world.

The smile on Tang Jie's face faded, he looked back at Baoguang Palace, remained silent, lowered his head, and returned to Shihu.
