Chapter 282 Shen Gongbao and Jiang Ziya

In the Zixiao Palace, Hongjun's face was gloomy. Even though the Hall of Heroes disappeared in the long river of time, he did not take his eyes off it.

"A counterattack from humanity? Luohou, what compels you to help humanity? Who exactly is this Monkey King you mentioned?"

As he finished speaking, a blurry human face suddenly appeared in the Zixiao Palace.

"Hahaha, Hongjun, you finally let me out! It seems you've encountered some difficulties. I didn't expect you to have this day! What a relief! What a relief!"

The man laughed out loud.

Hongjun snorted coldly, and the human face stopped laughing.

"Help me and I will give you freedom!" Hongjun said coldly again.

"Not enough! I still need you to help me prove the law!" The human face sneered.

Hongjun was silent for a while, thinking for a moment: "Okay!"

In Xiqi, Jifa also looked up at the sky with a satisfied smile.

"It seems that betting on humanity is the right thing to do. As long as my grand plan can be accomplished, humanity can be used by me! Then even arm wrestling with Hongjun will be no problem!"

"Your Highness is wise!" Kunpeng's eyes flickered, and no one knew what he was thinking.

……

"The Hall of Heroes of the Human Race has been established, and it's time to do something more." In Chaoge City, Sun Wukong's face became slightly serious.

Then, he fixed his gaze in one direction and snorted coldly: "You don't know how to live or die!"

In a palace in the royal city, two young figures were sobbing quietly.

"Brother Wang, they said that the Queen Mother is dead. I don't want the Queen Mother to die... I don't want the Queen Mother to die..." Yin Hong's eyes were swollen from crying.

"Woooooooo..."

Although Yin Jiao was older, he was just a child. He also could not accept the death of Queen Jiang and cried very sadly.

There are people around them watching them all day long.

Emperor Xin had tried to comfort them, but the two children were convinced that it was a fox spirit that had bewitched their father and harmed their mother.

I couldn't listen to anything I said.

So Emperor Xin had no choice but to let the two children calm down first and then explain things in detail.

However, at this moment, the guards guarding the two Yin Jiao brothers suddenly fainted silently.

This scene frightened Yin Jiao and Yin Hong, and Yin Jiao quickly protected Yin Hong.

Then a Taoist appeared in front of them.

"Who are you and what do you want to do?" Yin Jiao asked sternly.

"Don't be afraid, Prince. My name is Guangchengzi, and I was sent by Duke Dongbo to pick you two up." Guangchengzi said.

"Grandpa?" Yin Jiao exclaimed.

"That's right. After Duke Dong Bo learned that Queen Jiang was in trouble, he immediately asked the Taoist priest to rush over to rescue her, but in the end he was still one step too late..." Guangchengzi sighed heavily.

"Fortunately, the two princes are fine. I will take you back to Donglu right away."

In fact, he had arrived before Queen Jiang died and had every opportunity to take action, but if Queen Jiang had not died, how could the conflict between Emperor Xin and Jiang Huanchu be ignited to the maximum?
Then he was also shocked when he saw the human race's Hall of Heroes appear.

Finally, when Valhalla disappeared, taking the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors with it, he felt relieved.

The Shang Dynasty Crown Prince Yin Jiao had a master-disciple relationship with him. If Yin Jiao could return to Xiqi in the future, Xiqi's attack on Shang would be more legitimate.

Moreover, Yin Hong and Chi Jingzi also have a master-disciple relationship.

After saying this, Guangchengzi prepared to take Yin Jiao and Yin Hong away.

But just as he was about to leave, a five-colored divine light swept over, and Guangchengzi was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground.

"You are so bold, you dare to break into the palace of the human race?"

Guang Chengzi got up from the ground in anger, looked at the newcomer, and a hint of fear rose in his eyes. Then he shouted: "Kong Xuan, you dare to meddle in the affairs of my Chan Sect?"

"I, Kong Xuan, have been in the prehistoric world for a million years and have never been afraid of anything. You're using the Chan Sect to pressure me, but I'm afraid you're making the wrong move." Kong Xuan sneered, "I defeated Taiyi Zhenren at Chentang Pass. Would Yuanshi dare to fart?"

Guangchengzi was very angry, but when he remembered that his master had said it was best not to provoke Kong Xuan, he could only suppress his anger.

What's more, he can't beat him!

"Kong Xuan, I respect you as the son of Yuan Feng and I won't bother with you." Guangchengzi turned around and was about to leave.

He couldn't even take care of Yin Jiao and Yin Hong.

Although I am unwilling, I still don’t leave. Are you waiting to be beaten?
He knew very well that Kong Xuan really dared to hit someone.

Unfortunately, he had just taken a step when Kong Xuan pulled him back.

Guang Chengzi stumbled and nearly fell to the ground. Suppressing his anger, he said, "Kong Xuan, I'm ready to leave. Don't you think you're being too harsh?"

"I don't care what you think, I only care what I feel!" Kong Xuan said slowly, "The human race's capital is where the destiny of humanity converges. How can you come and go as you please?"

"Then what do you want to do?" Guangchengzi felt fear in his heart.

"What do I want to do? You'll know later." Kong Xuan smiled.

This smile made Guangchengzi feel uneasy: "Don't come over here!"

Guangchengzi directly used the Fantian Seal, attacked Kong Xuan, and turned around and ran away.

"You underestimate my five-colored divine light!" Kong Xuan waved his hand, and the Fantian Seal, which was refined with half of Mount Buzhou, fell directly from the sky.

Then he grabbed Guangchengzi with his hand and lifted him up into the sky above Chaoge.

"I am a disciple of the Chan sect, taught by the saint himself, you..." Guangchengzi could only shout, but Kong Xuan didn't buy it at all.

"I want to see how many times your Chan Sect has to learn its lesson!" Kong Xuan sneered, then threw Guangchengzi out, and a five-colored divine light washed over him.

Tear!

Accompanied by a crisp tearing sound, Guangchengzi's clothes fell apart in an instant, and he appeared naked in the world.

"Zi Guangcheng of the Chan Sect has trespassed into the human race's royal city to serve as a warning to others!" Kong Xuan said in a deep voice.

"Kong Xuan, you've gone too far!"

Suddenly, an angry voice sounded.

It's Yuanshi!

At this time, even his saintly self was rushing to Chaoge.

"I went too far? Don't you, the Chan Sect, go too far?" Kong Xuan said in a cold voice, without any exaggeration.

"How dare you!" Yuanshi raised his hand and took out the Pangu Banner at this moment, which shows how angry Yuanshi was.

Kong Xuan was calm and fearless.

With his master protecting him, what is he afraid of?
Sun Wukong was not in a hurry either. He asked Su Daji to pour him a cup of tea, picked it up and took a sip, as if he was not worried at all that Kong Xuan would be killed by Yuanshi.

Above Chaoge, Yuanshi was about to take action when a voice suddenly came.

"You, Yuanshi, dare to touch my Fangcun Mountain lineage?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the prehistoric world turned their attention over.

Then I saw Rāhu dressed in black appear in the void in the distance.

Yuanshi fell silent, and his anger disappeared along with the Pangu Banner, or rather, he held it in his heart, and was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

When he first became a saint, he was no match for Luohu, and it is even more impossible now.

……

In the Shang Dynasty palace, after learning that his son was almost abducted, Emperor Xin became furious and said that he would personally lead troops to attack Dong Lu. However, he was persuaded by Shang Rong and Su Hong.

Wen Zhong had already led his army into the territory of Dong Lu.

"Jiang Huanchu, come out here! Are you worthy of the late emperor's instructions?" Wen Zhong was riding on the black unicorn and was furious.

In the Shang Dynasty, Jiang Huanchu was not only the Duke of Dongbo, but also the father of Queen Jiang.

Wen Zhong never thought that Jiang Huanchu would rebel!
"Wen Zhong! I said I was forced, do you believe it?" Jiang Huanchu walked out with a dark face.

"You are the dignified Marquis of Dongbo, who can force you to do this?" Wen Zhong sneered, "You ordered Queen Jiang to cast a curse on the king, killing her. You even tried to abduct the two princes. You truly have ulterior motives!"

"What, my son is dead!?" Jiang Huanchu trembled all over.

"Stop pretending here. If it weren't for your father, how could Queen Jiang die to prove her innocence?" Wen Zhong said sternly.

Jiang Huanchu's face turned pale, but he quickly calmed down, showing the demeanor of a hero.

I can't escape the crime of treason!

After all, the evidence is conclusive. So what if it was set up by Guangchengzi?

If you don't have these thoughts, you won't do these things.

He did not regret the betrayal, but was heartbroken that his daughter died because of him!

"Wen Zhong, there's actually no point in saying so much." Jiang Huanchu sighed, "Donglu has been the Jiang family's territory for generations. I won't give it up no matter what I say."

"Tomorrow, I will give the order to attack the city. You'd better take care of yourself!" Wen Zhong groaned.

This day was not prepared for Jiang Huanchu.

But the Shang Dynasty army had to rest for a while before it set off.

In Donglu City, Jiang Huanchu's son Jiang Wenhuan said, "Father, I haven't seen Taoist Master Guangchengzi yet!"

Hearing this, Jiang Huanchu slammed the chair hard, his face full of anger.

"Guang Chengzi, you promised to help me rescue my daughter, but you never came back!" Jiang Huanchu was furious, and then asked again: "What did the Northern Marquis and the Southern Marquis say?"

The four great dukes were watching over each other, and Xiqi had been accused of treason and was now in the same camp as Jiang Huanchu.

"The Marquis of Beibo and the Marquis of Nanbo... said that my father brought this upon himself... and that if they had the chance they would definitely attack Dong Lu." Jiang Wenhuan stammered.

"I think they're both used to being the Yin family's dogs!" Jiang Huanchu said angrily, "Where's Xiqi?"

"Xiqi hasn't given a clear response either..." Jiang Wenhuan said.

At this moment, Jiang Huanchu's expression suddenly darkened.

The reason why he dared to rebel was that he saw that Xiqi would also rebel.

As long as Ji Chang is with him, he still has hope of turning the tables.

Just then, someone came with a message.

"Bo Hou, there is a Taoist outside..."

Hearing the word "Taoist", Jiang Huanchu's eyes widened: "Take him away and chop him off!"

He now feels disgusted when he sees Taoist priests.

The messenger trembled with fear and said with a mournful face, "Lord Bo, you can't kill him! The Taoist said he was the Prime Minister of Xiqi and came to negotiate with Lord Bo on behalf of Xiqi."

"Then let him in!" Jiang Huanchu waved his hand.

Although he hated Taoist priests, he had to see the people from Xiqi.

Soon, Shen Gongbao walked in: "Greetings to the Duke of Dongbo!"

Jiang Huanchu was still holding his head high at this moment: "Hmm? What does Xibo Hou have to say?"

Shen Gongbao twirled his mustache with his hand and said with a smile, "My uncle said that the Shang Dynasty was unkind and forced us to rebel. Although we are his subjects, we cannot just sit there and wait for death..."

Then Shen Gongbao took a breath.

Jiang Huanchu was overjoyed when he heard this: "Is the Duke of Xibo going to send troops to help?"

"No!"

Shen Gongbao's answer almost broke Jiang Huanchu's waist.

"What does Ji Chang want? Once Dong Lu is destroyed, Xiqi will definitely suffer!" Jiang Huanchu said angrily.

"We know this too, but Xiqi has the will but not the strength!" Shen Gongbao said with pretended melancholy.

"Xiqi is very far from Donglu, and the Marquis should also know that the Marquis of the North and the Marquis of the South are still serving Emperor Xin. My Xiqi troops will be blocked." "Humph!" Jiang Huanchu didn't believe these nonsense.

"However, my uncle asked me to help the Duke of Dong." Shen Gongbao smiled.

"You?" Jiang Huanchu looked unconvinced.

"Yes, it's me." Shen Gongbao said confidently, "I am a disciple of the Chan Sect, and my teacher is Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun. I will go to the sect to ask for some strong reinforcements, and the matter of Bohou will be easily resolved."

"Is Guangchengzi your fellow disciple?" Jiang Huanchu's face darkened.

"Yes, that is my senior brother. Where is he now?" Shen Gongbao asked.

It was their plan of the Chan Sect to have Guangchengzi instigate Dongbohou to rebel, so Shen Gongbao also knew that Guangchengzi had come to Dongbohou's side.

But he didn't know that Guangchengzi was in trouble.

"Come here, catch him for me!" Jiang Huanchu shouted.

All Taoist priests are bad people, especially those from the Chan sect.

"Wait! I don't know why Bo Hou wants to take me?" Shen Gongbao frowned.

"Your senior brother Guangchengzi instigated me to rebel. He originally said that he would help me, but in the end he disappeared without a trace!" Jiang Huanchu said coldly.

"Then Dong Bohou must have misunderstood. My senior brother is a big shot, how could he go back on his word?" Shen Gongbao laughed, "He must have left because of something. Now that I'm here, let me help the Duke!"

Jiang Huanchu still didn't believe it, and looked at Shen Gongbao with an indifferent expression.

If Shen Gongbao had not been the prime minister of Xiqi, he would not even have said any more nonsense to him.

"If Xiqi is unwilling to send troops to help, then I won't ask for it, but I don't believe you can deceive me with just your mouth!" Jiang Huanchu said.

"I have hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in Donglu, and I have two hundred vassal states under my command. With the advantage of the terrain, I may be able to fight Wen Zhong!"

"Your Majesty, you are wrong. You are the leader of Dong Lu. Have you ever heard of the concept of luck?" Shen Gongbao said with a smile, twirling his beard.

"Luck?" Jiang Huanchu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"That's right," Shen Gongbao continued. "In the Shang Dynasty, each vassal state possessed humane luck. The Shang King possessed the majority, and the four great vassal states also possessed a portion, but less than the Shang King.

Now that the land of Donglu is in rebellion, it has no legitimate reason and its luck is likely to be suppressed by the King of Shang.

Moreover, there was a strange man under the King of Shang named Jiang Ziya. He was originally a disciple of my Chan Sect, but was expelled from the sect because he learned strange techniques that harmed people.

This person is the most proficient in the art of suppressing luck. As long as he does this, Donglu will be in trouble!"

Jiang Huanchu waved his sleeves and shouted angrily, "How can my rebellion against the Shang Dynasty be unjustified? Emperor Xin killed my daughter, which was clearly forcing me to rebel! I don't believe in the idea of destiny!"

No matter what time it is, it is important to be reasonable and have a legitimate reason.

What Jiang Huanchu announced to the people and soldiers of Dong Lu was that the King of Shang was unjust and wanted to occupy the land of Dong Lu and drive the people of Dong Lu to a barren land.

It also said that Queen Jiang was brutally murdered by the King of Shang.

"What the truth is, Bo Hou knows it himself!" Shen Gongbao smiled again, then stretched out his hand and counted on his fingers, saying: "Bo Hou, I counted on my fingers and I know that you Dong Lu may be in great trouble!"

"Playing tricks!" Jiang Huanchu was very impatient and wanted to drive Shen Gongbao away.

But at this moment, a soldier suddenly ran over in a panic.

"Report, Lord Bo, just now... General Zhang was riding his horse when he suddenly fell off and broke his leg..."

"What!?" Jiang Huanchu's eyes widened. "General Zhang is such a skilled warrior, how could he break his leg while riding a horse?"

This General Zhang is a great general of Dong Lu and is very powerful.

How is it possible that he can't even control a horse?

"No... I don't know... General Zhang has gone to recuperate now." said the soldier.

"Bo Hou, the fortune of Dong Lu is now on the decline, and some unfortunate things will happen." Shen Gongbao said on the side.

Jiang Huanchu suddenly woke up again.

Just now, Shen Gongbao did talk about the theory of luck.

"This is just a coincidence!" Jiang Huanchu said coldly. He still didn't believe Shen Gongbao's nonsense.

But as soon as he finished speaking, another person ran in.

"Report! Lord Bo...due to a mistake by the kitchen, spoiled food was distributed to the soldiers. Now...50,000 soldiers are suffering from vomiting and diarrhea. Perhaps..."

Jiang Huanchu's face changed drastically.

Dong Lu has no shortage of generals. General Zhang’s broken leg is not a big deal, but... if something happens to 50,000 soldiers, it will be a huge loss for Dong Lu!

Even Jiang Huanchu couldn't afford it.

Before he could say anything, a few more people ran in.

"Bo Hou... General Wang fell into a cesspool and drowned..."

"Lord Bo... 20% of our stored grain has gone bad..."

"Bo Hou..."

"..."

For a while, bad news came one after another.

Jiang Huanchu's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his back was soaked with sweat.

Then, he quickly turned to look at Shen Gongbao and shouted, "Prime Minister Shen, please save Donglu!"

Bad luck happened one after another, and Jiang Huanchu was really scared.

If this continues, Dong Lu will be destroyed!

But he didn't see that there was a smile in Shen Gongbao's eyes.

Now he seems like a source of bad luck, the kind with a switch.

However, this is the limit of his ability.

"My Lord Bo asked me to come here, naturally to help Lord Dong Bo." Shen Gongbao said leisurely.

"Prime Minister Shen, please take a seat, please take a seat!" Jiang Huanchu was also very adaptable. He wanted to chop off Shen Gongbao's head just now, but now he immediately treated him as a guest of honor.

Shen Gongbao was not polite and sat down at the top seat.

"I also ask Master Shen to help me in Donglu." Jiang Huanchu said.

"No problem." Shen Gongbao said, "Today I will set up a formation for Donglu and break the magic of that demon Jiang Ziya."

"Then I'll have to trouble Prime Minister Shen." Jiang Huanchu said quickly.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Huanchu accompanied Shen Gongbao to the top of the city wall.

Shen Gongbao put his hands behind his back, looking quite a master. He summoned his magical powers and shouted, "Jiang Ziya, come out and see me!"

When Jiang Ziya heard this in the Shang camp, he frowned and walked out. When he saw Shen Gongbao on the city wall, he was also slightly startled.

Although he betrayed the Chan sect, it would be a lie to say that he had no feelings for it.

"Jiang Ziya, you practiced strange arts and defected from my Chan Sect," Shen Gongbao said sternly. "If you come back with me today, I can ask Master to spare your life!"

Jiang Ziya: "???"

It is true that I betrayed the Chan Sect, but when did I practice strange arts?

Isn’t what I know just some Five Elements Taoism?

Without waiting for Jiang Ziya to speak, Shen Gongbao continued, "It seems you are unwilling to repent. So today I will break your magic and teach you a lesson."

Although Shen Gongbao already knew that the conflict between him and Jiang Ziya was instigated by Yuanshi, he still felt uncomfortable, so he had to find an opportunity to set a trap for Jiang Ziya.

"Jiang Ziya, you used strange magic to injure my generals and harm my soldiers. I, Jiang Huanchu, will take revenge one day!" Jiang Huanchu also looked at Jiang Ziya with anger.

Wen Zhong walked up to Jiang Ziya and asked in confusion, "When did you cast a spell on Dong Lu? How come I didn't know? It seems you learned a lot of skills in Yuxu Palace."

The generals in the Shang camp also looked at Jiang Ziya in surprise.

I saw before that Jiang Ziya was highly valued by the King of Shang and was even on par with Wen Taishi.

In fact, these people are somewhat dissatisfied.

Now they suddenly realized that Mr. Jiang was the one with real ability, and they could hurt Dong Lu without using a single soldier.

Jiang Ziya stood there with a calm expression and sighed deeply.

This made everyone feel that he was a master.

However, Jiang Ziya himself did not know that he had special skills.

But it’s no use saying this…

Suddenly, Shen Gongbao shouted: "Break!"

Then he turned around and said, "Bo Hou, I have broken your magic!"

Jiang Huanchu: “???”

You just screamed and it broke?

"Ahem!" Shen Gongbao coughed lightly a few times and said, "Bo Hou, to be honest, although I, Shen Gongbao, joined the Chan Sect later than Jiang Ziya, Jiang Ziya is a useless person who only has some achievements in the art of harming people.

I just shouted like that, and his magic was naturally broken."

Jiang Huanchu was now skeptical.

"Your magic has been broken so easily?" Wen Zhong looked at Jiang Ziya with some disappointment.

Jiang Ziya sighed and said, "My Junior Brother Shen, although he entered the sect later than me, but... he was learning from a master and his cultivation level is higher than mine. It is only natural that my unique skills were broken by him."

What the hell, what kind of magic is this? If you keep talking about it, I’m going to believe it myself.

Wen Zhong nodded and said, "Jiang Ziya, you were able to weaken Dong Lu's strength before the battle. I will give you a great achievement!"

At this time, Shen Gongbao said to the Shang Dynasty garrison, "Jiang Ziya, I have broken your magic, don't be so arrogant.

Donglu occupies a geographical advantage, and Donglu City is easy to defend but difficult to attack. No matter how many people from the Shang Dynasty come, they will die!"

"How dare you!" Wen Zhong was furious when he heard this.

However, Jiang Ziya said to Wen Zhong, "Master Wen, what Shen Gongbao said actually makes sense. They have the advantage of terrain, so I'm afraid we won't be able to capture them."

Wen Zhong frowned. "Our Shang Dynasty has several times more troops than Donglu. Is it possible that we can't conquer Donglu?"

Jiang Ziya said, "That's a huge loss. Master Wen, don't forget that besides Donglu, there is also Xiqi.

Xiqi has the Mandate of Heaven, and it will be even harder to defeat than Donglu. We must conserve sufficient forces."

Wen Zhong remained silent because what Jiang Ziya said made sense.

"Then what do you have in mind?" Wen Zhong asked.

Jiang Ziya took a deep breath and said, "Besides the Duke of Dongbo, there are two hundred other minor princes in Donglu.

Now Dong Lu is plotting rebellion, but those small princes may not be willing to follow Dong Bohou in rebellion.

Furthermore, due to the short timeframe, it's possible that the Duke of Dongbo hasn't even managed to appease the people of Donglu City. We can definitely start from there."

Although Jiang Ziya has been following Wen Zhong recently, he actually focuses on Wen Zhong.

Because he knew that Wen Zhong was a rather conceited person, even if he made some suggestions, Wen Zhong might not necessarily adopt them.

But now, thanks to the strange magic, Jiang Ziya felt that he had some say.

After hearing Jiang Ziya's proposal, Wen Zhong was silent for a moment before asking, "How confident are you about this?"

"100%!" Jiang Ziya said confidently.

He knew that his chance had come.

"How many days will it take?" Wen Zhong asked again.

"Three days at most!" Jiang Ziya responded immediately.

"Okay, then I will send you to incite the princes in Donglu to rebel and minimize the losses of my Shang Dynasty!" Wen Zhong said seriously.

Jiang Ziya took the order and left.
