Why...
Obviously it was me...
Near the Lingxiao Palace, on a cloud road, Bian Zhuang, deputy commander of the Tianhe Navy, was holding a nine-tooth rake. , looking at the two figures leaving in the distance on clouds.
He even heard the conversation coming from the wind...
"Water God, how about dressing up like this?"
The unknown person A strange general appeared out of nowhere, wearing purple armor, smiling and spreading his arms, turning slightly on the clouds.
Lord Water God nodded with a smile and said: "The general's style remains the same."
"Hahaha!"
This, this proud laughter...< /p>
Bian Zhuang was filled with infinite grief and indignation. His whole body was shaking, his hands and feet were cold, and his face was filled with tears. He really wanted to rush up and shout:
'Can we do this together to flatter the Water God? '
A greeting came from behind:
"Commander Bian? Your Majesty has announced to us."
"Here he comes!"
Bian Zhuang shrank his neck, carried the nine-tooth rake on his back like a sword, and ran over quickly. Together with more than a dozen commanders and deputy commanders of the heavenly soldiers, they hurriedly entered the Lingxiao Palace.
According to the order previously conveyed by Tongming Palace, the twelve heavenly troops will soon begin to recruit a new batch of heavenly soldiers and generals.
This time the Jade Emperor summoned them probably for this matter...
Li Changshou's immortal consciousness caught this scene, and chatted with the Jade Emperor's second incarnation Zhao Dezhu about the expansion of the heavenly troops. of details.
In today's heaven, when recruiting heavenly soldiers, Doupi deceives the heavenly soldiers, and directly divides them into various ministries, and they are trained by the commanders themselves.
The reform measures proposed by Li Changshou are not radical. They just add a 'process' to the current system of heavenly soldiers:
[Establish the Palace of Military Reserves, and anyone who enters The heavenly soldiers of the Heavenly Court are uniformly trained by the Army Reserve Hall. After they learn how to form formations, they are then selected by the heavenly generals of each department and belong to the twelve divisions of the Heavenly Court. 】
In this way, the cycle of the new heavenly soldiers' formation of combat power will be greatly reduced, and the strength of each department can be balanced...
The Jade Emperor's incarnation, Zhao Dezhu, said: < /p>
"Chang Geng Aiqing, I have been thinking about the issue of troop sources you mentioned before for a long time. If you want to recruit enough heavenly soldiers in such a short period of time, you really cannot rely solely on the heavenly people from the third heaven.
Although, as I said last time, there is really not much difference between the casual cultivators in the Five Continents and the casual cultivators in the Three Thousand Worlds.
But if we only rely on merit and karma, there is no big difference. There are still some shortcomings in judging a person's character.
Although there are many heavenly soldiers and they are not among the gods, heaven is a peaceful place, so those with good character must be selected..."< /p>
Li Changshou smiled and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you recruit disciples from the Immortal Sect to serve in the Heavenly Court?"
"We have recruited them before, but only a few accepted them." Zhao Dezhu was a little helpless, "Although the Heavenly Court is established, No one knows."
Li Changshou thought for a while and then said: "If it is driven by utilitarianism such as merit and treasure.However, it is difficult to guarantee that the heavenly soldiers recruited will be loyal to the heavenly court. If there is a difficult battle, they may all escape..."
"Does Aiqing have any magic tricks for this? ”
“There are three methods, namely fast, medium and slow. "
Li Changshou took out a scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Zhao Dezhu.
The latter opened the scroll slowly with a solemn face.
< p>"The Heavenly Soldiers join the ranks and collectively swear an oath... The Super Heavenly Soldiers Plan... The Three Thousand World Heavenly Soldiers Training Base...My dear, how wonderful! "
Li Changshou said: "The little god has been trying to figure it out for a long time. Your Majesty, you can take a look at it on the way. If there is anything you are not satisfied with or the little god has not thought carefully about, your majesty, please point it out. God immediately corrected it. ”
We really discussed it and came up with the table.
Zhao Dezhu praised him repeatedly and didn’t think there was anything wrong with this. He held the scroll and read it carefully, but soon he changed the scroll. Put it away...
There is no way, the Water God Mansion has arrived
A certain princess who had been waiting for a long time jumped on the cloud, bowed to Li Changshou, and blinked. He asked without confidence:
"Water God...can you go this time?" "
"Yes," Li Changshou said with a smile, "General Zhao is going to the underworld with me on a business trip, and may also go to Beiju Luzhou later. Do you want to go with me? ”
“Hmm! "
Long Ji's eyes shone and he nodded variously.
Li Changshou warned: "Your Highness needs to hide his identity later, so just call me senior brother for the time being. Talk about yourself and your feet to others.
This General Zhao is His Majesty’s trusted general, so he must not lose his etiquette. "
"Long Ji has met General Zhao! "
"Yes," Zhao Dezhu nodded calmly. He wanted to say something, but felt a little embarrassed. He could only look at Li Changshou, who was squinting and smiling beside him, and sighed:
< p>"Water God, let's set off now. ""Good. ”
Li Changshou shook his fly whisk, took a father and daughter, and headed towards the East Tianmen.
At this time, the underworld has not yet been established by the heaven, and there is no way to directly go to the underworld. The only way to get there is to take a detour from the East China Sea to the Netherworld.
Perhaps because of the addition of a stranger, Long Ji was much quieter than before, with his skirt fluttering and his long hair dancing lightly. , the quiet girl exudes a kind of elegant temperament...
Li Changshou said to Zhao Dezhu with a smile:
"Her Royal Highness the Princess is beautiful and smart, ice and snow are smart. Although she is young at this time, From now on, I will definitely be able to relieve His Majesty's worries.
Your Majesty, why hasn’t Long Ji been rewarded? "
Zhao Dezhu shook his head and chuckled, and replied with a voice: "Let's wait until the heaven rises. Now the heaven is not stable, and her cultivation is still low, so there is no need to rush.
On the contrary, my dear, do you really have no intention of accepting a disciple? "
Li Changshou sighed and said: "Your Majesty, to be honest, the little god has cultivated to theHe is only a few hundred years old now, His Highness Longji..."
"Why do Qi refiners care about age?
Zhao Dezhu said with a smile: "You have said that Jier is smart and smart, and Jier admires you very much, Chang Geng. According to her mother, she is the water god every day, even when she is asleep I also kept talking in my sleep.
Although I am the Emperor of Heaven, I cannot force you. You still have to make your own decision on this matter...
Actually, I think that if you fail to become a disciple, it is not bad to grant a marriage. It's not bad for a woman to be three thousand years old. ”
Gift!
Li Changshou suddenly had an old rant and didn’t know where to vomit.
Feudal parents decide their daughter’s emotional belonging without authorization. This kind of behavior is In his last life, he was going to be pinned down and beaten by a boxer!
He glanced at Zhao Dezhu, turned to Long Ji and said with a smile:
"Long Ji, you Do you still want to call me teacher? "
Long Ji, who was secretly thinking about the drama of 'Water God and Zhao Dezhu', was stunned when he heard this. His face turned red, his body leaned forward, and he stood on tiptoes.
“Yes! Long Ji is willing! "
"I can't teach you how to practice. I can only teach you the methods of strategy and calculation." Li Changshou took out a jade talisman from his sleeve and said with a smile, "This is a piece compiled by Ao Yi. A copy of The Art of War is a gift for you to get started. "
Long Ji was overjoyed and couldn't put it down while holding the jade charm. Finally, he bowed three times to Li Changshou. After standing up, he whispered: "Teacher..." "
"Well, let's read this art of war first. If you don't understand, just ask. "
Li Changshou said something warmly, then turned to look at Zhao Dezhu aside.
Zhao Dezhu shook his head slightly, with a bit of disappointment in his eyes...
Disappointment ?
How anxious is your Majesty to marry Long Ji?
Is this the same reason as "Xiong Lingli was knocked unconscious"?
This is still a child! There is at least a child of thousands of years in adolescence!
Of course, Li Changshou will continue to laugh and talk with Zhao Dezhu. As an ordinary powerful minister, you should also practice some professionalism, deceive others, and use certain words to make the Emperor feel comfortable, so that you will not lack merit in the future.
They just left Dongtianmen. , they met Ao Yi bringing a large number of dragon soldiers to the heaven to pay tribute. The efficiency of the East China Sea Dragon Palace was also quite amazing.
After seeing Li Changshou, Ao Yi's originally gloomy eyes suddenly brightened. He called out "brother, leader" with a slightly hoarse voice.
Li Changshou went up to him and gave Ao Yi a spiritual elixir. He didn't mention the disaster of the Dragon Clan, but just asked:
p>“Can you feel better again? ”
Ao Yi smiled reluctantly, nodded in agreement, took another half step back, bowed to Li Changshou, and said no more words of thanks.
Li Changshou said: "I will pay tribute."Leave it to someone else. Come with me for a walk outside to relax. "
"Brother," Ao Yi did not agree immediately, but whispered, "Most of the clan members are not yet stable. I want to spend more time with them now. There are still sporadic wars all over the world..."
"It will only take you half a day," Li Changshou advised in a gentle voice, "If you can't cheer up yourself, how can you comfort others? "
On the side, Long Ji said: "Fellow Taoist, don't be too brave, you also need someone to explain it to you. ”
Ao Yi sighed softly, bowed to Long Ji, called his highness, and agreed to go out together to relax, and let the soldiers who sent tribute from the Dragon Clan enter the East Tianmen on their own.
Li Changshou said again: "Before you leave, please kowtow to Lingxiao Palace and thank me, and don't ask any more questions. "
"Yes," Ao Yi didn't ask anything else. He lifted up the hem of his war skirt and kowtowed three times in the direction of the Lingxiao Palace.
Zhao Dezhu nodded with a smile and looked down again. Looking at the incarnation at this time, his eyes are a little depressed.
It’s not bad to be an emperor respected by all living things.
…
Three hours later, in the Netherworld, at Xiongguan on the east side of Fengdu City
On the top of the cliff next to the 'line of sky', two well-fed and well-fed men hugged each other. Wearing their own hoods, they lay there leaning against the big stone.
They hummed with endless aftertaste, smacked their lips, and tried to smell it, all of which were full of satisfying smells...
"Ma, when will we go find the Water God again?"
Walking around with the water god is much less comfortable than being bored here, moo~"
"No need to scream without a hood!
The Dragon Clan was dealt a terrible blow by the West this time. The West is worthy of being the master of the two saints, and its tricks are even worse than those of the demon ancestors. "
Niutou sneered: "Wasn't it broken by the water god?
Haiyan was knocked open, wasn’t it also blocked?
Speaking of which, the Water God is so powerful that he can block dirty springs. "
Ma Mian patted his belly and muttered: "It should be just stable, but there may still be hidden dangers... burp. "
At this moment, a voice came into my ears:
"Two fellow Taoists..."
The bull-headed horse stared, and immediately jumped up, running around in a hurry. Wear a hood.
“Water God! "
"It's me. How many days have we been apart? How are you two? ”
The bull-headed horse-faced man nodded vigorously, and the two looked towards the east, and soon...
Remembered that their souls were not very strong, and their detection range was limited.
At this time, only the faces of bulls and horses can be seen. Above the heads, there are a large number of souls and true spirits floating from afar. Under the cliff, there are several Qigong practitioners riding on clouds. They are creatures who come to the underworld to do business...
Li Changshou's voice floated over again, with a bit of a smile:
"You two, I am still thousands of miles away at the moment, and I am leading a heavenlyThe general rushed over.
This general has an extraordinary background. He came to the underworld to check the situation in the underworld. One sentence he said to His Majesty the Jade Emperor was more effective than ten words I said.
If the underworld intends to enter the jurisdiction of heaven and receive the protection of the emperor, it needs to behave well and deal with it carefully this time. "
Nuutou Mamian was shocked when he heard this. The two brothers looked at each other, their eyes full of joy.
Nuutou shouted: "Hurry! Go and notify the Great Witch Festival, so that the atmosphere in the city can be lifted! Moo! ”
“Er! ”
The horse turned around and scurried away, leaping hundreds of feet away in one step, galloping over the cliff, not forgetting to take out a stone comb and combing his silky mane.
Niutou rubbed his big hands, jumped to the level below, and shouted a few times at the top of his voice, making the hundreds of witches guarding the place busy and frightening the few Qi Refiners who were about to pass the level.
p>When Li Changshou rode on the clouds and flew thousands of miles away with Zhao Dezhu, Long Ji, and Ao Yi, Niutou discovered his trace, and Niutou turned his head and shouted:
"Here comes the drum!" ”
A few strong men of the Wu tribe carried a worn-out big drum forward. Niutou picked up the drumsticks and beat a section of the Wu tribe’s war drum.
Rumble...
Drums sounded all over Fengdu City, and half of the Netherworld was shaken.
Li Changshou saw it from a distance and showed a faint smile.
Zhao Dezhu laughed. Said: "Chang Geng, it seems that you have made a lot of arrangements in the underworld. "
"Your Majesty misunderstood, the little god didn't do anything," Li Changshou replied in a voice, "It was the underworld that heard that the dragon clan surrendered to the heaven, and knew that the emperor of heaven was benevolent and righteous, so he wanted to take the initiative to join the list. "
Zhao Dezhu suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes, but... the misunderstanding was deeper.
Behind the two of them, Long Ji glanced at Ao Yi and whispered:
"The teacher was spreading the word all the way. ”
Ao Yi nodded and did not reply. There was some thought on his delicate face.
Before flying on the clouds to that line of sky, Li Changshou had just fallen from the clouds, and heard Dozens of witches screamed "Ulawuwa".
The witches took off Yinsi Yincai's cloth armor, wrapped them in animal skins, gathered all their blood, danced to the beat of the drums, and offered sacrifices. A powerful group dance.
After the Wu tribe finished dancing, Zhao Dezhu nodded with satisfaction.
"Moo! Give Way! Bright pen and ink! "
Nutou greeted, and all the underworld guards guarding the checkpoint turned around and raised ten large stones on both sides, with ten large characters written on them with blood from unknown sources:
The underworld welcomes you!
Reincarnation is no problem!
Poof! "Long Ji couldn't help but burst into laughter, and Ao Yi also showed a faint smile.
Zhao Dezhu also showed a warm smile, moved forward with Li Changshou, and sat on the prepared thing in the underworld... Ox cart.
This time, Niu Tou led the cattle in front of him.He warmly introduced the ‘tourist attractions’ in the Netherworld to the two of them.
Li Changshou asked with a smile: "Why don't you see fellow Taoist Ma Mian?"
"He went to the front to prepare! Moo!"
Niutou replied casually In this sentence, he happened to lead the ox cart out of the sky and left the ban of the formation.
Suddenly there was a gust of wind blowing in front, and the sound of "sweet laughter" sounded from everywhere;
I heard melodious sad music playing in the distance, accompanying this desolation With the sound of music, beautiful shadows flew all over the sky.
She is coming, she is coming, they are flying together with stiff smiles and sinister aura!
They carried flower baskets and sprinkled the petals of the other side of the flower...
They hummed songs, like the ecstasy tunes circulated in the world...
" "Water God, how are you?"
Nutou smiled proudly, "This is the highest reception standard in our underworld. If these are not enough, we can find more!"
