I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

Chapter 1267 Death of Wen Zhong

This day, inside Jiepai Pass.

Jiang Ziya had dissuaded the generals from fighting for countless times. He sat alone in the city gate tower, sighing.

What’s going on with my master? Why is there still no news after such a long time? It’s so worrying.

"Prime Minister, Prime Minister..." Just when he was feeling depressed, Nezha's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

Jiang Ziya asked gloomily, "What happened again?"

"The Shang Dynasty's Grand Master Wen Zhong has appeared and brought you a letter." Nezha said outside the door.

When Jiang Ziya heard the name Wen Zhong, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately became alert. He stood up from the middle of the bench and said, "Give me the letter."

"Yes."

Nezha strode into the city gate tower and handed a yellow letter to the commander-in-chief.

Jiang Ziya quickly opened the letter, scanned it at a glance, and laughed uncontrollably: "God is helping me, I finally got a chance to turn things around."

"What's the turning point?" Nezha looked curious.

"Wen Zhong's arrival means a turning point."

Jiang Ziya shook the letter in his hand and said, "Wen Zhong has asked me to fight him to the death at Juelong Ridge at noon tomorrow."

"Junior brother~" Just as the words fell, a shout was heard again outside the city gate tower.

Jiang Ziya's heart moved, and he hurriedly said, "It's Senior Brother Yun Zhongzi, Nezha, quickly follow me to greet him."

Nezha curled his lips, not looking very happy: "If it was someone from the Western Zhou Dynasty, as the vanguard officer, I could still go and greet them with the Prime Minister, but if it was someone from the Chan Sect... the Prime Minister should go and greet them himself, I will withdraw first."

After saying this, he didn't even give Jiang Ziya a chance to respond, and simply disappeared underground from his sight.

Jiang Ziya was in a very good mood at the moment, so he didn't care about the other party's childish temper. He walked out of the city gate tower with big strides and bowed to the purple-robed Taoist who was floating over: "Greetings, Senior Brother Yun Zhongzi."

Yun Zhongzi smiled slightly and said, "Junior brother, I am here to help you kill Wen Zhong on the orders of our master."

Kill Wen Zhong?

Jiang Ziya's expression froze for a moment, and he hurriedly asked, "Brother, why do you want to kill Wen Zhong? Once Wen Zhong dies, who can lead the Jiejiao immortals to support the Shang Dynasty?"

Yun Zhongzi asked back: "Junior brother, do you think Master can't see this?"

Jiang Ziya understood immediately and responded: "Wen Zhong has asked me to fight at Juelong Ridge, so please follow me..."

the other side.

Wuzhuang Temple.

The almost endless spiritual energy helped Qin Yao a lot.

Just like when a person doesn’t eat, the only thing he will think about is eating. Only when he is full and satisfied will he have the leisure to think about life.

After 49 days of integration and careful polishing, the heavenly book rules within Qin Yao's kingdom of God condensed into the shape of a ceiling. Many places were only a little bit away from being completely integrated.

"What's the difference?"

Qin Yao stared at the flower of truth and was at a loss for a moment.

Fortunately, he has a master who is well versed in Buddhism and Taoism, and he can eventually find the answer to his doubts from the other party's practice experience.

So he raised his hands, put his thumbs against his forehead, and let his mind penetrate his physical body, penetrate the flames manifested by the power of karmic fire, and look into the inside of the Bodhi seed.

Here, he saw far more vast truths (insights) than the Heavenly Book.

These insights turned into a staircase leading straight to the sky in the void. Countless runes were engraved on each step, and at the end of the stairs was a door. Qin Yao tried to detect it using the observation method, but he could not find out the true meaning of the door.

Qin Yao silently withdrew his gaze from the door, and his soul entered it. He climbed the stairs. With every step he took, Bodhi's understanding of this realm would appear before his eyes.

He moved forward by reflecting his own understanding with this perception, and unknowingly, he gained more understanding.

"Wow."

"Wow..."

Gradually, the immortal energy in his soul began to circulate wildly, like the rushing waves of the ocean, and actually made a tangible sound.

During this process, the spiritual essence of the ginseng fruit tree continued to fly into his soul. Due to the amount being too much and too large, his soul could not absorb it at once, so it blessed Shen Gongbao's body, making his demon body continuously strengthened. The divine light penetrated his pores and shone here, making him become like the sun.

Originally Qingfeng just couldn't look directly at it, but now he couldn't avoid the bright light, and his eyes were illuminated with golden light.

In desperation, he could only leave the ginseng orchard and close the gate, thus blocking the invasion of the dazzling light.

Inside the Bodhi seed.

Stone steps leading to heaven.

The higher he went, the longer Qin Yao paused.

After walking two-thirds of the way, it can be said that every step will bring him endless ideas.

However, not all ideas are good. He needs to discern and judge, and pick out the true meaning that suits him...

When he was two steps away from the top, he stood on the third to last step, where he found a part of the law and truth that he was missing.

One after another, golden words jumped out from the steps and merged into his soul. Qin Yao instantly understood the method of ceiling gathering. He sat cross-legged in the void and chanted scriptures.

This sutra is a great celestial immortal secret, one of the rare quick-learning methods in the world.

As he chanted, the countless runes that made up the ceiling in the kingdom of God lit up one by one, and the last tiny gaps were constantly blending in this light.

After a long time.

After Qin Yao finished reciting all the scriptures of the Great Heavenly Immortal Art, the light shining on the ceiling gradually faded, and a complete and intact flower appeared here.

"Success." Sister Long looked up at the flower of truth and said slowly.

Sister Kui finished her practice and said, "It's a pity that the Immortal Zhen Yuanzi hasn't come back yet, otherwise I would have been able to cultivate the Earth Flower right after that."

Sister Long said calmly: "There will be a day when I will come back... The most difficult thing is the Book of Life and Death. Qin Yao has nothing to do with the underworld in this world."

Inside the ginseng garden.

At the ginseng fruit tree.

The light around Qin Yao quickly faded and he slowly opened his eyes.

Outside the orchard, Qingfeng saw this and immediately flew into the orchard and asked, "What's going on?"

Qin Yao stood up and bowed deeply to the other party: "It's quite satisfactory, thank you brother."

Qing Feng immediately laughed and said, "It's just a small favor, it's nothing to worry about. Please stand up quickly, fellow Taoist."

Qin Yao stood up and shook his head, saying, "It's just a piece of cake for you, but for me, this favor has at least saved me from decades or even hundreds of years of hard work. I owe you a favor."

Qing Feng blinked and said, "Then can you tell me what is in the letter? I have been very curious these days... If you tell me the secret, we will be clear now."

Qin Yao laughed: "It's not a big secret actually. It's just a letter of recommendation. Its main function is to help me borrow the Earth Book from the Immortal Zhen Yuanzi."

"Reading the Earth Book?" Qing Feng was surprised and asked, "Why are you reading the Earth Book?"

Even though the Book of Earth contains the supreme inheritance of their Wuzhuang Temple, the problem is that the Taoist friend in front of him has achieved the Five Qi and Heavenly Smallpox, so he can't just disband his skills and start over again, right?

Qin Yao did not hide it and said, "To achieve the earth flower."

Qingfeng was still confused: "Can the Earth Book create the Earth Flower?"

Qin Yao said: "That's right, I just used the Heavenly Book to achieve the Heavenly Flower among the Three Flowers. Next, I will use the Earthly Book to achieve the Earthly Flower, and use the Human Book to achieve the Human Flower, and finally strive to achieve the realm of the Three Flowers gathering at the top of the head." "Can you still practice like this?" Qingfeng was surprised.

This was a huge deviation from the immortal theory he had accepted, and his worldview was slightly shaken.

"I just got smallpox, what do you think?" Qin Yao responded with a smile.

Qing Feng blinked quickly and asked sheepishly, "Um... can I practice like this?"

Qin Yao shook his head and said, "I don't know if you can do it. When the Immortal Zhen Yuanzi comes back, you can ask him. If he says yes, you can come to the battlefield between the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Shang Dynasty to find me, and I will help you read the heavenly book."

Qingfeng was overjoyed and said sincerely: "Thank you, you are so loyal."

Qin Yao laughed dumbly.

He is not the kind of person who values ​​loyalty. He is just reaping the benefits of good deeds done by the other party.

However, he felt that Qingfeng should be able to succeed.

After all, he had too many adventures to do this, but Qingfeng obviously did not have this condition.

"Wait." At this moment, after the joy, Qingfeng suddenly realized: "Are you leaving?"

Qin Yao put away his smile and nodded slightly: "I have waited for so many days but the Immortal has not come back yet. I don't know when he will return in the future. I don't have time to wait any longer."

Qing Feng was puzzled: "Why? Could it be that the battlefield can't move forward without you?"

"That's not the case." Qin Yao said, "I want to use the Conferred God Battlefield to accumulate merits and do something big."

Qing Feng suddenly realized and said, "Well, when Master comes back, I will immediately ask him if I can do the same as you."

Qin Yao waved and said, "I'm leaving first. See you later."

"Definitely." Qingfeng said with a smile.

Qin Yao nodded slightly, soared into the sky, and until he was far away from Qingfeng's sight, he raised his hands and summoned a dimensional door leading to the Jiepai Pass wilderness.

Then, he walked through the door and went straight to the outside of the Jiepai Pass. He turned around and closed the circular portal that was constantly emitting sparks.

"Meet the Imperial Master."

"Meet the Imperial Master..."

When he shortened the distance to an inch and rushed to the city gate, the soldiers defending the city saw his figure and cheered loudly.

Such cheers also alarmed the people who were celebrating in the city gate tower.

Jiang Guoxiang, who was sitting in the first seat, sobered up instantly and said with a half-smile, "What a bad time to come."

Among the generals below, Nezha frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that, Prime Minister?"

"Zhaer!" Li Jing called helplessly beside him.

"It doesn't matter. Nezha also contributed to the killing of Wen Zhong." Jiang Ziya waved his hand, stood up and said, "Gentlemen, please follow me to welcome the Prime Minister."

At his call, all the senior generals of the Zhou army followed him and walked out of the city gate tower.

At this moment, Qin Yao just stepped on the void and landed on the city wall. His eyes met Jiang Shang's and he smelled a clear smell of alcohol.

"Are you guys drinking together?"

"It's a celebration banquet." Jiang Ziya looked proud.

This time, he did not rely on the other party's advice to defeat the Shang Dynasty's military god.

Although, the process was not very glorious...

"Celebrate success, what are you celebrating?" Qin Yao asked puzzledly.

Jiang Ziya said leisurely: "We killed Wen Zhong in battle!"

Qin Yao: "..."

  Wen Zhong is dead?!

How could Wen Zhong die?

Thinking about this question, his brows gradually furrowed, and he asked, "How did Wen Zhong die?"

Jiang Ziya said: "He does not know the destiny, nor the fate..."

"Prime Minister, please speak more simply." Qin Yao interrupted.

This kind of "preface" is just like an old lady's foot binding, smelly and long.

Jiang Ziya was unhappy, but the other party was not rude, so he could not ask any questions: "In short, Wen Zhong sought his own death, and specifically asked to fight me to the death, and was ultimately defeated and died."

Qin Yao felt that this was nonsense. He glanced at Nezha and said, "I see. You guys continue to celebrate. I'll go back and rest first."

In front of so many people, Jiang Ziya couldn't ask for the Heavenly Book of the Investiture of the Gods, so he said, "Okay, Imperial Master, please do as you wish."

"I'll take Master back to rest." Nezha, receiving Qin Yao's gaze, stood up and said loudly.

"Prime Minister, is it okay to let Nezha send me off?" Qin Yao asked.

"No problem, no problem. What problem does this have?" Jiang Shang waved his hands repeatedly.

After a while, Qin Yao and Nezha walked down the city gate tower together and walked slowly into the city. However, they saw that during the martial law period, every household had closed their doors and the long street was even more deserted.

"How did Wen Zhong die? I don't believe Jiang Ziya could kill Wen Zhong." Qin Yao suddenly asked as they walked.

Nezha responded softly, "Wen Zhong was indeed not killed by the Jiang Kingdom, but died from Yun Zhongzi's sneak attack, killing him in one blow."

Hearing this, Qin Yao became even more surprised. He suddenly stopped where he was and then opened a dimensional door leading to Qishan on the long street: "Come with me, Master."

"Yes, Master."

As the master and disciple stepped through the light gate, they instantly arrived at the Qishan Conferred God Platform from the Jiepai Pass.

Bai Jian, who was guarding the Conferred God Platform, saw them and quickly stood up to greet them: "Benefactor."

"I want to see Wen Zhong." Qin Yao said.

Bai Jian immediately waved the soul-calling flag and summoned Wen Zhong's soul out from the Conferred God Platform.

"Master Shen." After seeing Qin Yao, Wen Zhong's expression suddenly became complicated.

"Grand Master..."

Qin Yao pursed his lips and frowned, "Why are you seeking death?"

In his opinion, if Wen Zhong did not want to die, then under the current circumstances, he would not have fallen to this point.

Wen Zhong sighed: "There are many reasons."

Qin Yao summoned tables, chairs, benches, and even wine jugs and wine glasses: "The night is still long, enough to make it clear."

Wen Zhong smiled and sat opposite him: "Yes, no matter how long the story is, it will eventually come to an end."

Qin Yao poured him a glass of wine and then asked Bai Jian, "Would you like to drink together?"

"No, no, it's my duty and I can't drink." Bai Jian waved his hand.

Qin Yao did not try to persuade her further. He turned to look at Wen Zhong, waiting for his response.

Wen Zhong took a sip from the wine glass and exhaled a long breath: "First of all, if I don't die, I will be sorry for those brothers who died because of me. They died on the battlefield one by one, and will serve the heaven in the future, but I am just like nothing happened, enjoying the happiness of the immortal. This is not appropriate.

Secondly, I must die. Because if I don't die, there will be endless plots against me, using me as a hook to hook out more victims of the Jiejiao.

So, I originally planned to die together with Jiang Ziya, but I didn't expect that the other party would be so shameless that he actually asked Yun Zhongzi to launch a sneak attack..."
