The old man's casual attitude made Ji Chengdian sigh inwardly. It was really irritating to see people compare to each other. The only thing he could get was a replica of Ji Wang Ding. Although there were several other spiritual treasures, they were all different from those in his hands. The two pieces given by the old man were almost the same, but the old man regarded them as rubbish and ignored them. He couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of Dashang's strength. This was just one of the kings of the country. There were others like this. seven.
Ji Chengdian pursed his dry mouth, put away the storage bag and cupped his hands to the old man to express his thanks.
The Blood-Crying King seemed to have noticed Ji Chengdian's thoughts, and said directly and clearly: "Chengdian, your vision in Ji Kingdom is too narrow. With your talent, you should travel to the Middle Earth, and then you will know that there is a world outside the world. , this kind of spiritual treasure may be something extraordinary in Ji Kingdom, but in Dashang, it is just an ordinary thing in China, so there is no need to disturb your heart."
With the old man's words, Ji Chengdian felt a little relieved, but then he thought, if the Ji Kingdom was still there, he would definitely go to the Middle Earth one day, but today his heart was dead, and the old man in front of him Since entering Sang City, he has entered a dead end that he arranged, and he will not think about leaving this place alive.
I felt a little reluctant to give up, and looked around unconsciously, then looked at the Mulberry City that I had built over ten years. Unlike when I first took office, there were not so many mulberry trees in Mulberry City. Since I came, the mulberry trees have made Sangcheng became wealthy, and Sangcheng became the largest city in the Ji Kingdom. If nothing had happened, he might have become the future master of the Ji Kingdom. Although he was the adopted son of King Ji, for decades, King Ji would He raised him as his own son, and everything in Ji Kingdom should belong to him. But today, the dream has been shattered, shattered by Dashang's own hands, and destroyed by the blood-weeping king in front of him. Now there is only hatred in his heart.
Suppressing everything in his heart, Ji Chengdian quickly followed up and asked for instructions from the Bloody King: "Heavenly King, the City Lord's Mansion has arranged a resting place. Please forgive me and temporarily stay in the City Lord's Mansion!"
The Blood-Crying King didn't express anything, and only said softly and in a low voice: "Yeah!"
Watching Chilin's personal guards file in, after the soldiers from the city lord's palace finally entered the city, everything on the avenue became a little quieter. Everyone present talked about what they had just seen and heard, and some mentioned the blood. The strange beasts mounted by King Weeping Sky exclaimed repeatedly, and some described the tall Blood Warrior. He was at a loss and didn't know how to describe it. Jiang Chen saw all this and shook his head. Looking at the many warriors in front of him, he thought about it just now. The grand pomp and power of the Blood-Crying King made him feel mixed emotions. He calmed down his excitement and pulled Lu Yuan back to the city.
The main hall of the city lord's mansion!
Ji Chengdian gave most of the territory to the Blood Crying King's people, and found another place to rest temporarily. At this time, the main hall was brightly lit, and the Chilin guards guarded the main hall tightly. A team of five people came and went. They are still patrolling alternately, and there seems to be a barrier blocking the outside of the hall. Near midnight, the voices of you and me could be heard in the hall.
"King of Heaven, can you please pardon the lives of the rest of the people except the Ji royal family? They are just following orders. There is no need for me, the Great Shang, to commit so many crimes."
A gentle voice came. Although it seemed to be a request, there was a firmness in the tone, which seemed not to be negotiable. If Jiang Chen were here, he would definitely know that the person speaking now was Jing Jing, whom he had met for the first time at Zhike Villa not long ago. You, Jingyou sat on the upper position, sitting side by side with the Blood-Crying King. Judging from the situation, their status seemed to be equal.
Hearing Jingyou's words, the Bloody King did not open his eyes, but said calmly to the big man beside Jingyou: "It's bad, if the third prince leaves the team privately next time, I won't reward you twice." It’s that simple to use the Ten Whips of Blood Crying Whip!”
When Si Lai heard the words of the Bloody King, his expression changed. He seemed to be extremely afraid of the old man. He quickly knelt down in front of the two men and said, "It's all my fault. Please don't blame the third prince."
The Blood-Crying King raised his eyes and looked down at Eilai who was kneeling on the ground, and said with admiration: "He is indeed a loyal servant."
"King of Heaven, you know this is my problem. There is no need to vent your anger on me. He has grown up with me since childhood. This time he is just following orders."
Jingyou was a little anxious, stood up and said helplessly to the old man.
After hearing this, the Blood-Crying Heavenly King snorted coldly, and began to lecture Jingyou with some harsh words: "Third Prince, the king's life is short. You and I both understand the purpose of this expedition. In order to find one hundred thousand The number of warriors makes the old minister's legs almost break. There are two brothers in front of you. If the old minister hadn't hidden the news this time, if the news that you privately let go of the Jiguo family was spread back to Chaoge, do you know what the consequences would be? The crime of collaborating with the enemy may not count, but you cannot escape the punishment for disobeying the king’s orders. Do you understand what this means?”
The old man looked at Jingyou with some annoyance, his voice getting louder and louder, as if he hated iron for not being able to become steel.
Jingyou was a little afraid to speak because of the old man's words. He lowered his head and remained silent for a moment before explaining: "Ji Chengyue has an old relationship with me. I saw him getting out of trouble that day and couldn't bear to capture him, so..."
"So you're just pretending that I ordered you to move away from the pursuing troops?" The old man slammed the table angrily, stood up and looked at Jingyou with his eyes wide open. The display of his power made Jingyou take half a step back.
Eilai, who was kneeling on the ground, slowly moved his body and exited the hall.
Seeing the evil coming and retreating, the old man took a few steps, pointed his finger at Jingyou and said: "You are born with divine eyes, and you showed extraordinary power when you were young. Your ability to support beams and change pillars with one hand amazes the king. If you don't make mistakes, you will be the emperor." Gentleman, this expedition is because our ministers want you to earn some credit. After the victorious master returns to the court, the position of crown prince will belong to you. Now that things have happened, how can you disobey the king's order? "
Hearing these words, Jingyou felt angry in his heart. He stared at the Blood-Crying King and retorted firmly: "My father is old and foolish. He actually believes in evil ways such as sacrifices. The Taoist realm has not appeared for many years." , everyone knows that the Tianxuan Realm can no longer support anyone to break through the Taoist realm, but he wants to break through with evil ways. Although I, the Great Shang, are strong, but if the atrocities continue like this, arousing resistance in the world, it is my Great Shang. end."
The old man also sighed, patted Jingyou's shoulder gently, his tone became softer, and said to dissuade him: "Your Highness, if the king's destiny is not lost, the king of Great Shang will always be the strongest. Now that the king has Falling into the way of sacrifice, there are prime ministers, chief ministers, and princes from all directions to assist in government affairs, so your highness does not have to worry too much. When your highness ascends to the throne of the king a thousand years later, the great merchants will surely be at their peak and even stronger than they are now."
You sat back down in shock, not knowing what he was thinking. The Bloody King looked at his appearance and continued: "Your Highness's benevolence is a blessing to the great businessman, and he is also gifted with magical powers. All the ministers support His Highness's ascension to the throne of God, but Your Majesty The current situation is unstable. To be on the safe side, His Highness really shouldn’t make any mistakes. Neither the eldest prince nor the second prince can save money.”
Jingyou turned around and looked at the Blood-Crying King. Seeing his stern expression, he recalled his previous teachings to him. He seemed to have figured something out, and he softened his tone and said in compromise: "This expedition depends entirely on the King." Make the decision, His Highness will no longer participate. His Japanese Highness will surely be well rewarded for the kindness of the King of Heaven in protecting us."
Hearing the shock, the Blood-Weeping King relaxed, and then returned to his smiling face and said modestly: "Your Highness, it's good if you understand these principles. With the strength of the Great Shang State, even if your Majesty has been tossing it for decades, it will only scratch the surface. Your Highness, please Relax, as for protecting His Highness, it is the duty of the veteran minister, and I should not be thanked by Your Highness."
After talking about this matter, the atmosphere in the hall seemed a bit awkward. In order to ease the atmosphere, Jingyou took the lead and said: "I have been traveling around Sang City in the past few days. I once met a boy in the Qi refining period at Zhike Villa. Not only did he have pure spiritual power, The fullness is better than the ordinary foundation building period, and even the physical strength contains the power of dragon and elephant. Within the same realm, I am afraid that Gudu will not be his opponent."
Seeing the topic coming up, the Blood-Crying King was surprised and said: "Oh? Could it be that the person His Highness is talking about is the boy that I just saw outside the city!"
"What? The King of Heaven has seen him too?" Jingyou described Jiang Chen's appearance, and upon comparing the two of them, they turned out to be the same person.
The Blood-Crying King smiled slightly and praised: "This person has such good fortune at such a young age. If he can grow up, he will definitely be a great person. Your Highness might as well make a few friends first. Maybe he can become an aid to Your Highness in his fight for the throne in the future. .”
When Jingyou saw that the Blood-Crying Heavenly King rated him so highly, he showed joy and said: "To be praised by the Heavenly King like this, it seems that my delusion-breaking method is not without merit. This person has a strong sense of prevention, so I still shouldn't be deliberate. To make friends, I will give him the Black Bird Jade Pendant this time. If he can reach Chaoge, it will be the time to conquer him."
"I don't have to worry about these things anymore, I still have to deal with finding Wang Ding next!" The Blood-Crying King stood up and said as he left the place.
Jiang Chen naturally didn't know about the relationship between the two. He had returned to the cave at this moment, waiting for the next auction. Then he entered the World Pearl to sort out the elixirs planted and poured it with spiritual spring water. , and then continued to look for any suitable spiritual objects on the mountain that could be directly exchanged for spiritual stones.
After some exploration, Jiang Chen not only found a large number of elixirs, but when he went around the back mountain, he saw a dense forest near the peak from a distance. The entire forest was filled with a strange-looking spirit. The tree was as tall as the clouds, and the leaves were withered and yellow, which looked really strange. Jiang Chen wanted to go in to find out, but as soon as he got closer, he felt a strong gravity pulling him from mid-air. After falling down, even with the blessing of the divine walking talisman, he fell heavily to the ground. Fortunately, it was relatively flat here, and there was only some soil on the ground. He was not injured when he fell under the pull of gravity.
