"Master!"
In the evening.
Bao Shi and Tong Hezi stood in front of Fang Xian and bowed, reporting, "The celebration is over. All the guests have safely left the mountain …"
"Very good … This time, the mountain gate was opened, and many intelligent and lucky people came. Some of them joined the sect. Now, our Fang Xian sect has nine true disciples, thirty-six inner disciples, and seventy-two outer disciples. That's enough …"
Fang Xian smiled.
Other than that, he also saw a few talented young fellows, and each of them was given a 'chance'.
They would definitely be successful in the future.
At this time, he was just casually planting some seeds as a game.
"Master!"
Another Daoist came in and bowed, reporting, "The government has sent a message. Prince Jin will lead an army to suppress the rebellion in a few days. At the same time, he intends to visit the Daoist temple. How should we deal with him? Master, please tell us! "
"What does a human dynasty have to do with us?"
Fang Xian asked.
In the end, it all depended on one's own strength, no matter what kind of schemes or methods one used.
In this world, there was no one else but him who had the strongest strength.
It could be said that he already had the ability to flip the table.
Since that was the case, why should he follow the previous Daoists and serve the power of the secular world?
"Good!"
Bao Shi and Tong Hezi looked at each other, both of them feeling proud and elated.
In the past, Daoists did not have much magical power. Their incense was restrained by the Dragon Qi, so they had no choice but to kneel.
If they still kneeled now, they would be born to be worthless.
"Pass down my order. Seal the mountain gate and don't see outsiders!"
Fang Xian calmly passed down the order.
"Yes, Master!"
All the Daoists bowed and obeyed.
With the protection of the immortals, they were not afraid of the imperial power, but they could not help but feel nervous.
Bao Shi was fearless. He knew that as long as his master had the Flesh Returning Pill, he was not afraid of the nobles not bowing their heads.
At this time, only sealing the mountain gate was considered giving each other some leeway.
"After all, the people involved in the imperial family's affairs will not have a good ending … I should just mind my own business …"
...
At the border of Dingzhou.
Twenty thousand soldiers of the Capital Army were lined up in a majestic formation, forming a dense black mass that carried a breathtaking majestic aura.
At the center of the army were over a hundred golden-armored guards, who were clustered around a single person, holding a flood dragon umbrella. It was none other than King Jin.
Prince Jin looked at the army with an intoxicated expression on his face. He thought to himself, 'Sure enough, a man can't be powerless for a day. Among all the powers, military power is the most important!'
The Capital Camp was formed from elites from all over the country. It could be considered the 'Imperial Army' and was also the capital of the Emperor to maintain his throne. Perhaps it would gradually become corrupt in the future, but at the moment, it was still well-equipped and well-fed.
In ancient times, wars were fought for armor, money, and meat!
Farmers who could only eat meat a few times a year would not have enough stamina. Even if they wore armor, they might not be able to run and fight.
Needless to say, he didn't have any armor.
Tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of such refugees were defeated by thousands of elite soldiers of the imperial court. This was a common occurrence in the history books.
"There are only two hundred thousand soldiers in the capital camp, and I've brought twenty thousand with me. They're top-notch soldiers, comparable to forty to fifty thousand state soldiers. I'll definitely quell the rebellion in one fell swoop. When the time comes … who else but me will be the Crown Prince?"
Prince Jin thought to himself with satisfaction.
If it weren't for the fact that Wang Shun had the help of the demon and was hidden deep in the mountains, he would have regarded him as a dead man.
With just a county, he dared to rebel during the peaceful times of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Was he not a lunatic?
"Of course, it's said that the white ape demon is powerful, but it still depends on the Taoists … It's said that the immortals of Fang Xian Dao have refined 'Flesh Restoration Pills', which can make people young again?"
Prince Jin's heart was burning with passion, but he also felt a little awkward.
In all fairness, if he could get the pill and present it to his father, he would definitely be overjoyed.
However, in Monarch Jin's heart, there was another thought buried deep in his heart.
If his father really lived for ten thousand years, then even if he became the Crown Prince, what was the use?
There was no kinship in the royal family!
While he was in a dilemma, a scout came to deliver the latest news from Dingzhou.
Prince Jin opened it and read it. His face immediately turned red with anger. "Fang Xian Dao has sealed the mountain? Are you rejecting This King? "
The anger of a king was not to be underestimated!
Prince Jin was not an ordinary person. The cold murderous aura made the guards beside him break out in a cold sweat.
At this moment, the secret letter sent by Zhou Zhu also arrived.
Prince Jin glanced at it, and his eyelids twitched. He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said with a smile, "Forget it, maybe I'm not virtuous enough … I'll visit the immortals after the rebellion is quelled."
After all, he was not a fool. He did not want to provoke a seemingly powerful enemy while attacking the demon and Wang Shun.
However, after the white ape and the rebellion were eliminated, he would have enough time and energy to deal with the other party.
"Your Highness is wise!"
The advisors beside him looked at each other and could not help but secretly sigh in relief.
…
Zhengyang Manor.
With the help of the demon, Wang Shun had subdued the bandits of Bailiang Mountain and gathered thousands of men to attack the city and ravage the land.
At this time, although the prefecture had not been conquered, it was still in a state of panic.
Zhou Zhu was dressed like an ordinary traveling merchant. Along the way, he saw that most of the farmland had been abandoned. He could not help but sigh, "Even if this place can be pacified, there will still be famine …"
He had already seen it in the prefecture. Now that he was skilled, he was bold enough to go to Dazheng County.
When he passed by a village, he was attracted by the sound of gongs and drums.
From afar, he saw a group of people carrying a statue of a god. It seemed like they were performing some kind of sacrifice.
However, the statue was black and did not look like a god. It was clearly a temple of prostitution in the countryside. Zhou Zhu frowned.
He stepped forward and stopped a villager. He asked, "Brother, I'm a foreign merchant. I brought some goods and would like to inquire about the local market. Please do me a favor …"
As he spoke, he stuffed a small jar of salt into the villager's mouth. The villager instantly smiled. "Ask away. I'll tell you everything I know!"
"I heard that there's a war here. Why didn't the villagers run away?"
Zhou Zhu immediately asked.
"After all, we haven't fought yet. The rich master has run away, but we have nowhere to run …" Old Sun frowned and said, "Fortunately, I heard that Wang Shun doesn't kill civilians. He only robbed the rich to help the poor. He's doing justice on behalf of the heavens …"
'His evil intentions should be punished!'
Zhou Zhu secretly commented. He also sighed. "Me too. If it's not to earn money to survive, who would come here to do business? Also, what's this village doing? "
"Sigh … recently, there have been demons around here. I heard that a demon wolf appeared in the neighboring county and ate countless people. It's terrible … Later, someone spread the news that as long as we worship the Black Divine General, no demons will come to disturb us. Our village is also inviting the god …" Old Sun pouted.
"Black Divine General?"
Zhou Zhu took another look. At this time, the group was getting closer, and the statue became clearer. It had a hairy face and a mouth like a black monkey.
He was stunned. 'Isn't it a white ape? Why did it turn into a black monkey? '
