The beginning of the king guards the Great Wall

Chapter 55
An underground cave, dark and cold.

Facing a halo like a black cloud, Ming Shiyin said respectfully and apologetically:
"Master, I failed, sorry."

After a long time, a deep voice came from the black cloud: "It's not your fault, that kid named Jiang Ming has mastered the original power, it's normal that you can't beat him."

"Original power?!" Ming Shiyin showed surprise: "Is it the kind of power that you have always wanted to get, that can help you reshape your body?"

"That's right." The man in the dark nodded: "Nuwa guessed that I would wake up, so she divided the original power into twelve parts and hid them in advance. Jiang Ming has mastered one of them—the power of possessing the spirit."

"It's not easy for this kid to be able to discover the original power."

Having said that, the eyes of the man in the dark narrowed slightly.

He used Ming Shiyin to attack the Great Wall in order to obtain the power of the god within Dunshan, but Jiang Ming beat him one step ahead.

Thinking of his majestic protoss ancestor being swept away by an ordinary person, he couldn't help feeling annoyed.

"Master, what should we do next?"

Ming Shiyin asked in a low voice.

Di Jun smiled coldly: "In addition to the power of possessing spirits, another kind of original power has also awakened, and it is even more important to me."

"That Jiang Ming doesn't care about him anymore. It will be as easy as killing a chicken when I reshape my body and get back the power of the spirit."

"Now your task is to approach the Empress of Tang Dynasty."

"Empress of the Tang Dynasty—Wu Zetian?!" Ming Shiyin's face changed slightly: "Could it be that another source of power is on Wu Zetian?"

"That's right, as long as I get that kind of power, I can directly condense my physical body."

Di Jun said.

Ming Shiyin hesitated and said: "It is rumored that Wu Zetian is already a half-step king, and I am afraid that my subordinates will not be able to do anything to her."

"Don't worry, I will give you more powerful power." Di Jun's voice became cold: "You just follow the instructions, and I will seize the original power by myself."

"Yes, Master!"

Ming Shiyin nodded vigorously, his eyes instantly brightened a little.

Although Di Jun's power is evil, it is the purest dark power.

"Give me more strength, and I may not be able to step into that legendary realm."

Thinking of this, Ming Shiyin couldn't help breathing quickly.

If one reaches the realm of the king who stands shoulder to shoulder with the gods, isn't such a trivial matter as revenge within easy reach?
. . .

Great Wall.

More than 100 million demon species come and go.

It is believed that there will be no large-scale demonic riots in the next few years.

Su Lie reported this matter to the imperial court, and the empress Longyan was delighted, and specially sent her confidantes to the Great Wall to express her appreciation.

On this day, Jiang Ming and others stood on a high place, looking forward to the direction where the special envoy appeared.

A tall, burly, muscular man came into view.

That's right, it was Cheng Yaojin again.

"General Hua, General Su, congratulations to both of you for your great achievements!"

"General Cheng has come from a long way and worked hard. The food and drink are ready."

The three generals are all veterans in the officialdom, and they flattered each other as usual when they met.

Satisfied with wine and food, Cheng Yaojin began to read the Queen's handbook.

Hua Mulan and Su Lie made meritorious deeds in defending the city, each promoted to a rank, and rewarded with a thousand taels of gold.

Jiang Ming, Baili keeps the promise, Pei captures the tiger, assists with meritorious service, and rewards a hundred taels of gold.

Since Jia Luo is from Thousand Cave City, the Queen naturally ignored her.

"What about me?"

Li Bai opened his eyes round, looking expectant.

Cheng Yaojin took a look at him, and continued: "Li Bai...has amazing literary talents, and he is specially hired as a lecturer at the Imperial Academy."

"That's it?" Li Bai was dumbfounded.

Cheng Yaojin looked puzzled: "You are still not satisfied with the Imperial Academy's attendant lecturer bachelor, from the fourth-rank senior official?"

"So what about the fourth rank? After all, it's just a civil servant. Hasn't anyone noticed my swordsmanship?" Li Bai scratched his hair angrily.

Ever since he became famous for his poems, the queen has always wanted to give him a civil servant.

Helpless, he is dissolute and loves freedom by nature, so he can't stand the lifeless academy civil servant.

They all refused.

Later, he became fascinated with swordsmanship, and wanted to become famous again with his swordsmanship, and become a handsome general.

After finally accomplishing a major event on the Great Wall, I thought the empress would notice his swordsmanship.

The result is this?

I tried my best to show off my ability as a warrior, but you just pretended not to see it, and you took the opportunity to recruit me as a civil servant? !
Too much!
"I reject!"

Li Bai said sullenly, wanting to lift the table angrily.

"it's up to you."

Cheng Yaojin rolled his eyes and ignored him.

Anyway, this is not the first time Li Dashixian has rejected the queen's kindness.

After a pause, Cheng Yaojin continued: "The empress sent me this time, there is another thing besides a commendation."

He glanced at Jiang Ming: "The empress is very interested in Vice General Jiang Ming, and I will tell you to go to Beijing to face the saint."

Shangjing Miansheng?

Jiang Ming paused slightly.

In order not to attract attention, Jiang Ming specifically asked Su Lie not to write down his achievements in the memorial to the empress.

The production of Jiangming No. [-] and the improvement of military crossbows were not included.

If Wu Zetian only read the memorial, he probably wouldn't be interested in Jiang Ming.

Unless, she has been observing the movement of the Great Wall with her eyes.

"It's very possible. After all, the Great Wall hides another miraculous power."

Thinking of this, a serious look flashed in Jiang Ming's eyes.

If Wu Zetian really did this, then she would naturally know about Jiang Ming's acquisition of the power of the god.

At this time, it was rumored that he was going to the Beijing Miansheng, no matter how you looked at it, he had the taste of a Hongmen banquet.

Jiang Ming thought about it for a while: "Okay, I got it, and I will leave for the capital tomorrow."

Wu Zetian wanted to see him, but she couldn't avoid it no matter what.

A strong man who is half a step into the realm of a king will be found even if he escapes to the ends of the world.

At that time, it will not be an invitation but a capture.

"Brother Jiang Ming is going to the capital tomorrow?" Li Bai's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "That's great, we can study poetry on the way, oh yes, and swordsmanship, Brother Jiang Ming's skills are also good It's incredible."

But Li Bai was very happy, because he was scheduled to return to Chang'an tomorrow.

Thinking of being able to discuss poetry and swordsmanship with Jiang Ming, Li Bai was so excited that he wanted to jump up.

The next day.

Jiang Ming and Li Bai packed their luggage and prepared to return to Chang'an with Cheng Yaojin.

Two beautiful women, Hua Mulan and Jia Luo, came to see Jiang Ming off.

With a cold face, he forcibly suppressed his reluctance in his eyes.

The other was full of emotion, and his eyes were red from crying.

Jia Luo wanted to go to Chang'an with Jiang Ming.

However, it is somewhat inappropriate for a princess from another country to enter the capital of Datang without the empress' summons.

So under Jiang Ming's persuasion, he gave up this idea.

"Jiang Ming, I've seen the queen, come back quickly!"

Gallo said with a sob.

"Don't worry, Chang'an has complicated feelings, he won't like it."

Hua Mulan comforted Jia Luo for the first time.

It sounds like a kind of self-consolation.
