Chapter 120 The Flood of Public Opinion, Sacrifice to the God Altar?

But it is said that Jiang Ziya is driving the four elephants all the way to Xiqi, and the speed is so fast that it is not enough to describe. The four elephants have horns like a deer, a face like a horse, hooves like a cow, and a tail like a donkey, but overall they look like a deer. It is not a deer, a horse is not a horse, a cow is not a cow, a donkey is not a donkey, so it has the reputation of four different images.

These four images are also prehistoric alien species, and their strength is not very strong, but they are superior in that they have an unusually gentle temper, and they are accompanied by a calm and auspicious aura, which makes people feel at ease and peaceful. With the character of his predecessors, he would definitely not accept this strange beast as a mount.

In less than a day, Jiang Ziya came to the city of Xiqi under the burden of the four images, which was several times faster than him driving the escape light. After feeling a lot, Jiang Ziya placed the four images in the backyard of his mansion In the center, no one was ordered to guard it, so it was allowed to move freely.

Sixiang has stayed in Kunlun Mountain for tens of thousands of years, which is much longer than Jiang Ziya's practice. He is already a psychic. With the order of Yuanshi Tianzun, Sixiang will definitely cooperate with Jiang Ziya and will not leave at will. of. [

Afterwards, Jiang Ziya didn't care about taking a break, and immediately rushed to Qijian Hall, and ordered the generals and ministers of Xiqi to be promoted to the hall for discussion. Soon after receiving the notice, all civil and military officials rushed to Qijian Hall.

"Doctor, the old man has been away for more than half a month. I don't know what major event will happen?" Jiang Ziya asked lightly, mopping his snow-white beard.

San Yisheng heard the words, bowed and replied: "Prime Minister, everything in the city is fine, even Su Hu's army has been abnormally calm, and did not come to call for battle or attack the city, but the business road from Xiqi to other places is still blocked. , In this way, Xiqi has not received any news from the outside world for a long time, and is almost isolated."

After a pause, San Yisheng frowned even more, sighed a long time, and said distressedly: "Oh, Prime Minister, the more difficult thing is that all the food and salaries in the city are seriously insufficient. I am afraid that after seven days, our army will have no more food and salaries to use."

Hearing this, before Jiang Ziya could reply, Ji Fa said aloud: "Doctor, it's really impossible, so we have to collect food from the people in the city, otherwise the army will be hungry, how can we have the strength to protect Xiqi?"

"Hehe, this move is inappropriate. If it is really done like this, it will definitely cause panic among the people in the city, and it will be even more detrimental to Xiqi." Jiang Ziya said slowly, "And the old man returned to the mountain. The solution to this predicament, you all need to worry about.”

"Really?" San Yisheng said happily. In the half a month since Jiang Ziya left, San Yisheng has not had a single day of peace. He has been racking his brains to think about how to prepare food and pay, and at the same time break down the limited food and pay. , Do not allow too much lng fee, save a little is a little.

Jiang Ziya nodded with a smile. Seeing this, everyone in the hall was overjoyed and heaved a sigh of relief. A huge boulder of a thousand catties was lifted from their hearts. Immediately, the atmosphere in the seven halls eased a lot and was no longer so dignified.

"But I don't know when the senior members of the prime minister's men will come to help Xiqi?" San Yisheng asked again.

"The doctor needs to worry, it should be soon"

As soon as Jiang Ziya's words fell, someone from outside the hall came to report that two people from outside came to visit Jiang Ziya. When Jiang Ziya heard the words, he smiled lightly and ordered someone to bring them in.

Not long after, he approached two young Taoists from outside the hall, both of whom were wearing Taoist robes and buns. When they saw Jiang Ziya, they all bowed down and saluted and shouted: "Disciples Han Dulong and Xue Ehu pay homage to Jiang Shishu. "

"Are you the two disciples of Jintingshan Yuwuong Daoxing's disciples?"

"Uncle Master is absurd, the two disciples were ordered by the teacher to go down the mountain to help Uncle Master, and they will listen to Uncle Master's instructions in Xiqi in the future." Han Dulong, who was holding a white sexo bucket, said slowly.

When Jiang Ziya heard it, he said happily: "Thank you for your help. In this way, the matter of transporting food in the city will be left to the two of you in the future. The so-called soldiers and horses go first without moving food and grass. This food and payment is the most important thing related to the safety of the three armies. Can't be sloppy"

After hearing this, Han Dulong smiled confidently, shook the xo bucket in his hand, and said: "Master, don't worry, with this treasure here, the matter of transporting food is just a matter of xo."

After that, Han Dulong went to the Xiqi granary, and quickly poured the grain in the bucket into the granary. Soon, the Xiqi granary was full of grain, almost overflowing. The matter was finally completely resolved.

When Xiqi City was cheering, Shen Gongbao, who had been out for a long time, also returned to Su Hu's camp. As soon as he entered the camp, Su Hu and the others stared at the one-legged monster behind Shen Gongbao in amazement. A trace of panic.

Seeing this, Shen Gongbao smiled faintly and said: "Everyone needs to be afraid, although this thing looks very weird, it will definitely not hurt you, right?"

Seeing Shen Gongbao turning his head and smiling at him, the one-legged monster couldn't help shaking his body. Shen Gongbao's seemingly gentle smile, he had a deep understanding before, it was definitely a devil's smile.

He thought to himself not long ago that he was still living freely in Beihai, throwing stones and fluffing up slices of lnghu, so he was happy and happy, but he didn't know that this demon suddenly fell from the sky, saying that he was surprised by his bones, and he was accompanied by the hair of great wealth. He was angry, and he said that he had to wait for himself to make contributions.

He naturally sneered at this. Although he is not a powerful person, he is also a strange thing in the world that has opened up his spiritual wisdom. How could he see the wealth and glory of the world, so he immediately rejected it. After that, It's a miserable life.

This damn demon Taoist always had a faint smile on his face, holding a shiny silver ruler in his hand, and asked himself with a smile: "Do you agree?"

Of course he didn't agree, and what greeted him was a burst of rulers, and the blows on his body were really painful. Afterwards, he fought back many times, but Shen Gongbao couldn't do anything.

For several days in a row, the demon Taoist smiled at him, making himself unable to escape. As long as he refused, he would be greeted with a ruler. That life was so miserable that he could not live or die. In the end, he finally gave in. Under the majesty of this demon Taoist priest.

Thinking of this, his body trembled even more, he gritted his teeth in secret hatred for Shen Gongbao's constant slander and curse.

"Hey, xo dragon, it seems that you have some conflicts in your heart?" Shen Gongbao smiled evilly. The one-legged monster in front of him was the dragon-bearded tiger from the North Sea. Shen Gongbao thought of it by accident, and it took a while. I went looking for it in time, and luckily, I happened to see this guy throwing washbasin-sized xo stones by the sea, having a great time.

"No, no, master." Seeing the strange look in Shen Gongbao's eyes, Long Xuhu burst into tears, "Really no."

"Hey, there is no best thing." After finishing speaking, he patted Longxuhu on the shoulder and said, "xolong, don't worry, I believe you will like this kind of life. I am glad that I chose to throw stones alone by the seaside What's so interesting about smashing the sea lng, only people can appreciate it when it's performed in a crowded place, hehe"

"Yeah," Longxuhu replied stiffly, not daring to say more.

Regarding this, Shen Gongbao just chuckled, and then entered the camp with Su Hu, and after saluting each other and taking their seats, Shen Gongbao asked, "Suhou, has something important happened recently?"

Su Hu laughed when he heard the words, and said with a mop of his beard, "Even if there is a big event, it is the work of the national teacher, haha." After finishing speaking, he took out three copies of "Dashang Times" and handed them to Shen Gongbao.

Shen Gongbao frowned, took a quick look, and couldn't help grinning. Although this "Dashang Times" is not as perfect as the newspapers of later generations due to various conditions and restrictions, it is enough to convey information. Looking at the military section Shen Gongbao was even more delighted with Xi Qi, who was almost demonized above.

After a while, Shen Gongbao just put down the "Dashang Times" in his hand, and said: "The business route from Xiqitong to other places is still blocked by Marquis Su?"

Su Hu nodded, and said: "Yes, as long as Xiqi doesn't have enough food and salary, there are tens of thousands of people, even if Jiang Ziya has the ability to reach the sky, I'm afraid there is nothing he can do, and Xiqi will be destroyed without attacking."

"Hehe, Jiang Ziya came from Yuanshi Tianzun of Yuxu Palace in Kunlun Mountains. If he encounters difficulties, he will definitely ask his teachers for help, and Pindao already knows that Jiang Ziya has teachers who come to help him. The shortage of food in Qi City has been resolved, but this method will trap Xiqi."

"Oh?" Su Hu raised her thick eyebrows when she heard the words, and said, "If so, what advice does the national teacher have?"

After Shen Gongbao heard this, he suddenly smiled, licking his goatee beard and said with a smile: "Since the food shortage problem has been solved by Jiang Ziya, then we need to block the trade roads. Why don't we open the trade roads and let the merchants walk. By the way, open the gate to release the water, hehehehe"

"Open the gate to release the water?" Su Hu murmured, and then followed Shen Gongbao's gaze to look at the three "Dashang Times". Suddenly, Su Hu understood what he meant, and murmured again: "Why don't you open the gate and release the water? How will Jiang Ziya handle this time?"

"Hey, brother, do you know? You can go to Xiqi City now, grab your cargo and go together."

"real?"[

"Of course, Li San in the city has already returned from Xiqi City. After staying at home for half a day, he rushed to Xiqi with a bunch of goods without stopping."

"Li San, didn't he go to Xiqi to do business before, and then he was trapped in Xiqi?"

"That's right, according to him, Hou Suhu of Jizhou has lifted the blockade of commercial roads, and merchants can travel between the two places."

"This Li San was trapped for a long time before returning home. Why did he go to Xiqi again in such a hurry?"

"Do you know what is lacking in all kinds of things in Xiqi City now, and going to Xiqi at this time can take the opportunity to make a lot of money?"

"Wow, why didn't I expect that Xiqi City has been trapped for more than half a month, and there must be a lot of things missing. Let's go, and I will go together."

"Hey, for the sake of our dating for so many years, remember to buy more "Dashang Times". Xiqi doesn't have such a thing, so we can definitely make a big difference."

"Sure enough, good brother, I'll invite you to Xianghu Tower when you come back, hehe"

After that, the two each let out a laugh that men can understand, and then rushed to Xiqi City with their respective goods. Such scenes kept happening in several towns near Xiqi City.

At the same time, in Xiqi City, a big merchant sighed sympathetically to a Xiqi resident who was shopping: "Oh friend, buy more, you live in this devilish Xiqi City, these must It’s better to prepare more things, you can’t say when this business will be closed again, the grand master will not let the demon of Xiqi enter the big business and hurt the people of the big business.”

"What are you talking about? What kind of demon?" The Xiqi resident asked with a full face.

"Hey, the devil is harmful to people. It seems that you must have been deceived by the devil. Now that you have bought so many goods, these few copies of "Da Shang Times" will be given to you." The vendor sighed regretfully, and then handed over jo This person has several copies of "Dashang Times".

The people from Xiqi still took over the "Dashang Times", which they had never heard of, with a puzzled face, and then left with the purchased goods in a daze.

On the other side of an XO alley not far away, a vendor was also setting up a stall to sell various goods, but the Xiqi resident he was talking to was obviously familiar with him, and the vendor whispered: "I said Wang Brother, hurry up and pack up your things and go to Chuanyun Pass with me to live, this Xiqi is a place where monsters inhabit, you can’t live there for a long time, when I sell out these things, come with me and take your daughter away.”

"Brother, where did Xiqi get this monster from?"

"Hey, Brother Wang, if there is no monster, then Ji Changhui died? If there is no monster, the grand master will let Jizhou Marquis send an army to block the passage of Xiqi Datong to the outside world. Don't say anything, pack up and go, if it is too late Oh, maybe this business road will be blocked again, and it will be too late for you to regret it, and I won’t come to Xiqi again after I finish this deal, it’s too dangerous.”

Hearing that the brothers who have been dating for many years are so true and false, this brother Wang is also hushed. At this time, he saw the vendor take out the "Dashang Times" he carried with him and said: "Brother Wang, look at this."

After Brother Wang looked at it for a while, the vendor said again: "Brother Wang, anyway, you are living very poorly in Xiqi, why don't you take your daughter to Chuanyunguan to manage that shop with me, on this Whether the monster thing is true or not, it’s better to be on the safe side, you don’t think about yourself, but you have to think about my nephew, right?”

Hearing this, Brother Wang hesitated for a long time, and then he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, no matter what, it's always good to leave Xiqi, which is a place of wrongdoing. Now that Xiqi is constantly fighting, it's really not a place to live for a long time."

"Well, yes, and, Brother Wang, you can simply pack up and bring a few clothes, so as not to be blocked by the guards. As for the others, I have them. If you didn't save my life, I would If you're already dead, you don't want to live with me."

"Thank you" Brother Wang went home to pack his things without clenching his fists. Not long after, he took his daughter to meet with the merchants and left Xiqi City as a merchant.

Xiqi, in the seven halls, Jiang Ziya and others gathered together, their faces were seyn, the dignified atmosphere enveloped the seven halls, there was no sound, everyone was thinking about the current situation in Xiqi, with one exception, everyone had Take a few copies of Dashang Times.

"Well, people in the city are panicking now, what should I do?" San Yisheng felt that his hair had turned gray again, and his forehead was covered with wrinkles.

"Close the city, or attack Chaoge directly, otherwise Xiqi will be disintegrated by Chaoge's voice if he continues to be so passive." Ji Fa's face was full of vigor, and he said solemnly, with a cold light in his eyes.

Bo Yi Kao frowned when he heard the words, and remained silent for a while, before he said: "If the city is closed, I am afraid that the people's hearts will be greatly lost. When the people's hearts are gone, how can the country be settled? If it directly reverses the Chaoge, then I, Xiqi Are all the false and absurd remarks of the rich merchants even more confirmed?"

"Hum..." Ji Fa snorted coldly, and said: "Brother Wang said this before, maybe I can agree with it, and think of other strategies, but now, our army's northern expedition to the Chonghou Tiger, although it was beheaded, it has not been killed. Instead of capturing Chongcheng and rescuing the people of Chongcheng, Chong Yingbiao finally came down with the so-called "benevolent government" and saved most of the people's hearts. I, Xiqi, lost troops and generals, and did not get the slightest benefit. Nowadays, Chaoge's various methods are endless The use of force, the closure of the city, the siege of the city, and the Dashang Times, I think there will be all kinds of dangerous methods in the future. Chaoge and I, Xiqi, are already in conflict, and there is absolutely no possibility of reconciliation. If this is the case, even if we No matter how you try to refute the rumors, it is not as fast as Chaoge's splashing dirty water. After all, my manpower and material resources in Xiqi are far inferior to Chaoge's. So, instead of being wiped out by Chaoge, it is better to resist the blow and turn Chaoge , this may save everything. As for the hearts of the people, I dare not say more in other places, but most of the people in Xiqi City will definitely support us. It is good to get the hearts of the people in other places. , when the time comes, winners and losers, how to interpret history is not up to us to decide.”

Ji Fa's remarks are really domineering and show great courage. When the crisis is imminent, Ji Fa's decisive character immediately plays a role. A strong man cuts his wrist and can decisively put aside the good reputation of Xiqi before. Abandoning it and seeing the essence of the matter clearly, the winner and loser, the direction of the public's speech is easy to guide, as long as Xiqi overturns the Chaoge, all the righteousness and evil of history will not be told by the victor.

The silent Taoist Qinglian looked at Ji Fa who looked solemn in the arena, and couldn't help but secretly sighed that he was indeed the emperor of heaven, decisive and domineering, with great responsibility. If it wasn't because of the different camps, the deity had to hinder Xi Qi, so Ji Fa It is very easy to send the leader Xiqi to turn Yin and Shang.

After hearing Ji's remarks, Bo Yikao also fell silent, and Bo Yikao was not a fool. How could he not understand the current situation in Xiqi? The great reputation accumulated throughout his life was wiped out.

After everyone was silent for a long time, Jiang Ziya's expression was fixed, and he said in a deep voice: "As the second prince said, Xiqi's current situation can only be like this. This time, the old man returned to the mountain gate and got a treasure from the teacher. After the construction, it should be able to greatly increase the confidence of the people of Xiqi, and calm down their floating hearts, so that they will not be deceived by Yin Shang. As for places other than Xiqi, I can’t guarantee it.”

"Prime Minister, this effect is enough. Please let the Prime Minister tell you what kind of treasure it is." San Yisheng said happily, now that the hearts of the people in Xiqi are floating, and being able to calm down the hearts of the people in Xiqi is enough to make San Yisheng less worried up.

To fight against the outside world, one must first secure the inside. Only when the rear of Xiqi is stable can it be possible to talk about the rule of Chaoge

After Jiang Ziya listened, Momo's pale beard looked around at everyone before slowly saying: "This thing is called Fengshentai"

"Fengshentai?" Taoist Qinglian's heart moved, and then his expression remained unchanged, and he continued to cultivate indifferently. At the same time, Shen Gongbao in Su Hu's camp also sensed Taoist Qinglian's thoughts and knew what happened in the Qijian Temple .

"Hehe, as expected, we are going to build the Conferred God Platform and hang the Conferred God List," Shen Gongbao muttered to himself, "The Yin and Shang have won the battle of public opinion, and the adverse effects of Shang Zhou, Hu Ximei and others have basically been eliminated. The people's hearts are stable, and the next step is to fight Xiqi with real swords and guns."

After that, Shen Gongbao got up and went to Su Hu's camp. After saluting, he smiled and said, "Su Hou, you can order those secret spies pretending to be traders to withdraw from Xiqi City."

"Oh?" Su Hu frowned, and asked suspiciously, "Has Xiqi changed?"

Seeing Shen Gongbao nodding his head, Su Hu stopped hesitating immediately, and a secret letter was sent out. Not long after, the merchants in Xiqi City suddenly decreased by one-third and disappeared quietly, but all of this was extremely secretive. As things went on, Jiang Ziya and others were preparing to build the Conferred God Platform, but they didn't notice this strange thing.

Although Shen Gongbao already knew that the growing public opinion in Dashang would flock to Xiqi after Su Hu unblocked the business road, Shen Gongbao was still very worried, or wanted to achieve the best effect, so he asked Wen Zhong to order some The spy disguised himself as a merchant, took the Dashang Times, and went to Xiqi City to fan the flames, leading the flood to Xiqi City.

Sure enough, shortly after those spies withdrew from Xiqi City, Xiqi automatically sealed off the city and prohibited outsiders from entering the city. Those traders were sent out safely by Qiqi, and all the goods in their hands were sent by Jiang Ziya I bought it, but I made a lot of money, and I don't have too many complaints about the closure of the city.

However, these people were keenly aware that the war in Xiqi might be about to resume, so they left Xiqi one after another and returned to their respective homes, not daring to come to Xiqi to do business again in a short time.

"The Conferred God Terrace, I wonder if it can be destroyed?" Shen Gongbao stood on a high mountain not far from Suhu's camp and looked at Xiqi City, as if he could see that the Conferred God Terrace was being built there.

"The Conferred God Platform is a must-have thing for conferring gods. Is it possible to explain the teachings without some protection?" Shen Gongbao was very hesitant in his heart, wondering if he should ask some people who were intercepting the teachings to destroy the Conferred God Platform .

"Huh?" Shen Gongbao frowned slightly, just now he sensed the message sent back by Taoist Qinglian with that little mysterious connection, Shen Yin murmured to herself after a while: "After the construction of the Conferred God Altar, we will worship the altar? "

Secretly recalling the records of later generations, Shen Gongbao immediately snorted coldly, and then returned to the Su Hu camp, a messenger came, jo and a letter, and the messenger immediately took orders and left the Su Hu camp.

Thanks to "Auspicious and Ruyi" for rewarding coins, "Piao Miao Fengshen" voted for a monthly ticket, and "Oranges of the Western Regions" voted for a monthly ticket, uh. . .I looked at the results of Honghuang Fengshen x that I had seen before. . .Sad reminder. . .Except for "I am King Zhou" and that pioneering work that performed well, the rest, ahem. . .
