Outside Chongzhou City.
Passerby Yi gave an order and the army began to move.
More than 200,000 people were surrounded by ten square formations lined up by passers-by, forming a human-shaped formation to break through!
The dozen or so weapons depots in front of the rebel formation were quickly wiped out. Everyone rushed to the west with their hardened black iron weapons!
On the road, there were a few intercepting troops. When they saw the rebels coming, they were so frightened that they ran away. This made the rebels even more powerful!
but.
There are also many different voices in the military.
"Why do I feel something is wrong?"
"We shouted so loudly, couldn't the Chongzhou defenders hear us?"
"Why do I feel that this encircling army surrendered faster than we did at that time?"
"This situation is very familiar. I remember that we fought all the way from Beihai, and the defenders on the road behaved like this."
…
However, as soon as they expressed different opinions, a certain general stood up and beheaded them on the grounds that they were deceiving the public with their lies.
For a moment, everyone worked together to escape.
At this time, Xiqi's army was on its way.
…
Chongzhou City.
Zi Shou sat on the city tower, eating hot pot, surrounded by clouds and mist, watching the rebels fleeing westward like a tide outside the city.
He drank all the millet wine in his hand. It is said that this millet wine was brewed during the period of Dayu.
It has been thousands of years ago.
The aroma of wine overflows.
Then Zishou took another empty cup, poured a cup, stood up, and poured it towards the outside of the city.
He smiled lightly and said:
"The kite has flown and I don't know when it will return."
"Have a good trip everyone."
"You may not be able to show your true colors to others during your lifetime."
When Chonghou Hu saw this, he felt very sad and quickly pulled a cart of millet wine and poured it down from the city wall.
Suddenly the aroma of wine filled Chongzhou City.
"I would like to give you a carriage!"
Zi Shou:......
He was speechless, only feeling uncomfortable all over, and the atmosphere that had finally been brewing completely disappeared.
He glanced at Chonghou Hu and kicked the fat man down.
Screaming.
The aroma of wine fills the air.
Soon it spread to the rebels.
The rebels who were escaping were cursing in their hearts.
"Damn Chonghou Hu, with such a vicious heart, he even used fine wine to seduce the gluttons in my stomach!"
"Come on, I heard that Xiqi produces a lot of fine wine, let's go to Xiqi to drink!"
"Follow the general to Xiqi, drink fine wine, and grab gold bars!"
The two hundred thousand troops, with fear of death and longing for the future, quickly fled completely.
…
Outside Chongzhou City.
The rebels retreated.
Only the bloody corpses everywhere and the two collapsed city walls showed that a tragic war had occurred here.
The Xibohou Mansion is also home to the Chong clan.
Zi Shou sat in the first place, Chonghou Hu, Chong Yingbiao, and several generals sat on the right hand; several elders of the Chong clan sat on the left hand.
"I would like to thank you for your grace."
When several clan elders saw their son accepted the throne, they all sat up tremblingly and bowed their heads.
Zi Shou waved his hand and said:
"They are all old bones, so don't salute."
Several clan elders finished the ceremony and then reluctantly returned to sit down in front of the dining table.
"Bei Bohou, it seems your brother Chong Heihu will not come."
"You brothers don't have a harmonious relationship."
Chonghou Hu was covered in cold sweat and did not dare to speak.
After all, that was his half-brother.
Finally he couldn't help but say:
"King Qi... My younger brother has been practicing with the immortals since he was a child. He was given a magic weapon, an iron-mouthed condor, and a mount, the "Fire Eyes and Golden Eyes Beast." He sat down with three thousand flying tiger soldiers sweeping across all directions. He is far more powerful than me. .”
"Since ancient times, there have been no second marquises in one sect. However, my younger brother just relied on his skills to win the appreciation of the late king and was granted the title of Marquis of Caozhou. Black Tiger is young and energetic, and has always been unruly."
"He... looks down on my brother."
After that, he hesitated and said:
"Your Majesty... As a prince, he cannot do anything without the king's order."
Zi Shou glanced at him and saw Chonghou Hu breaking into a cold sweat. He knelt down without daring to raise his head.
Zi Shou did not expect that Chonghou Hu would intercede with Chong Heihu.
He is naturally no stranger to Chongheihu.
This brother of Bei Bohou was the first person to use strange arts in the Conferred God War.
His appearance elevated the Conferred Gods from a war between humans to a battle between Qi Practitioners.
In the eighth year of King Zhou's reign, eight hundred princes paid a pilgrimage.
Su Hu had a grudge against Fei Zhong and You Hun because he didn't give him a gift, and was stabbed in the back by the two of them, who then tricked Emperor Xin into taking his daughter.
The most beautiful woman in Jizhou.
Su Daji.
Then, Su Hu shouted out that eternal saying.
"The king breaks the rules of his ministers and defeats the five permanent members. Jizhou Suhu will never go to the Shang Dynasty."
After Su Hu rebelled, Chonghou Hu, as the direct leader, was the first to lead the army to quell the rebellion. As a result, he was beaten and ordered to withdraw his troops.
At this time, Chong Heihu came out to save his brother and had a fight with Zheng Lun, Su Hu's grain supervisor, allowing the mortal army to see the magical power of the Qi Refiner.
Zi Shou remembered that Zheng Lun had the power of two qi in the orifice and the magical power of snuff. When fighting the Chonghei Tiger, he snorted and threw out a white light and captured the Marquis of Caozhou.
However, after the battle, Chong Heihu turned around and cut ties with his brother.
He scolded Chonghou Hu: He only lured the emperor to get close to his sycophant ministers, defeated his troops and harmed his generals, and humiliated our Chongmen.
In the destiny of the Gods, Chong Heihu even betrayed his brother, killing all his brothers. In order to please Xiqi, he tied up the whole family of his brother Chonghouhu, killed all the men, and turned the women into prostitutes.
He took the position of Beibeihou himself.
Zi Shou drank a cup of millet wine. The aroma of the wine was refreshing, and he decided to change his taste in the future.
The thermos cup should be filled with wine.
He said calmly:
"The princes from all over the world must not take action without the king's order. This is the law of the Great Shang."
"However, this law does not count in the four major vassal fiefdoms in the east, west, south, and north."
"You, you, you will have to count money for others after being sold."
Chonghou Hu smiled, he was Beibohou, who could sell him.
Zishou sighed and waved his hand, and the flag official outside the door handed an imperial decree into the hands of Chonghou Hu.
"Before I came here, I had issued an edict to confer the title of God on the Great Shang River in the Qishui River, and made me the patron saint of the Great Shang."
"But Chongzhou is fighting the rebels, and the flag officers are blocked outside the city."
"Now, you accept this decree."
Bei Bohou quickly knelt down to receive the decree, and the flag officer read it loudly.
A moment later, the edict was read, and the entire hall became eerily quiet.
Ministers from all walks of life in Chongzhou, including elders of the Chong clan, and generals present... It was like thunder was ringing in their ears, and their eyes were full of disbelief, and they were stunned on the spot.
After a long while, Chonghou Hu came back to his senses and quickly accepted the imperial edict, but his heart was filled with huge waves.
The king is serious about conferring the title of god this time.
It is not just casual talk to build a altar for conferring gods, set up a supervisory supervisor, and list laws and regulations for canonizing gods.
Could it be that... after King Qishui killed the gods, he issued three imperial edicts in succession, just to test?
Now I have finally taken this step.
After a few springs and autumns, one can become a heavenly being.
What is an immortal?
Chonghouhu didn't know.
But he knows.
Those monsters flying into the sky and escaping to the ground, one head capable of blocking thousands of armies, are just monsters.
His younger brother, Chong Heihu, relied on his special skills to break the rule of not becoming a second prince. He was granted the title of Marquis of Caozhou and was not worthy of being called an immortal.
If there is a guardian deity stationed in Chongzhou City during this war, why should they fear monsters causing trouble?
"I accept the decree!"
Chonghou Hu put away the imperial edict and returned to his seat, feeling unable to calm down for a long time.
He knew that this war was far from over.
This great merchant’s edict to become a god is the real beginning.
Zishou nodded and said:
"Everyone, get up."
"This is a long-term plan, and we need to plan it slowly."
"You can post a list of gods in Chongzhou City. The person who revealed the list will give him a clearance certificate and ask him to go to Chaoge to ask for the title."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, he saw a skinny old man in the palace, who was even more excited than Chonghou Hu.
The old man had a head full of withered hair and was wearing a thin green linen cloth, revealing a torso that was only skin and bones.
His face had drooped down, his sunken eyes were cloudy, and his toothless mouth opened and closed. He knelt tremblingly in front of Zishou and said excitedly:
"Your Majesty, my old minister Wu Chong wants to ask for a title from your Majesty."
puff……
The millet wine that Chonghou Hu had just drank spurted out, and he stared dumbfounded at the old wizard who was about to be buried.
Chong Houhu thought he was crazy.
Zi Shou looked at him curiously. Although the old man was as skinny as a stick, there was an aura about him that no mortal could have.
This breath is very similar to his human immortal essence and blood.
However, it's not even close.
Zi Shou asked, "Who are you?"
The old man raised his head and said dryly:
"Old minister Wu Chong, after the great witch Chiyou, a retainer of Emperor Yu."
