408 Intimidation and Fighting
After successfully getting the only remaining pair of gold hoop bracelets from Taishang Laojun and ordering 4 sets, Shi Zhongkui returned to the Royal Horse Prison happily.
Taishang Laojun was also quite satisfied.
For a super master in weapon refining like him, although the materials required for the gold hoop bracelet are precious, they are not scarce.
If you have a million taels of Yin De silver, I will definitely not lose anything.
Of course, this is also Shi Zhongkui, otherwise even Nezha and Yang Jian would not be able to easily get such a treasure that can control the big demon from Lao Jun.
After the lion camel king and the black bear spirit arrived at the Banana Cave in Cuiyun Mountain with one hundred thousand taels of Yin De silver, the Bull Demon King and the Iron Fan Princess almost drooled when they looked at the ten neatly arranged silver ingots containing 50 taels each.
It flowed out.
Not to mention Yin De's silver, even if it is ordinary silver in the world, the couple cannot afford 100,000 taels.
It's not that the Bull Demon King is so poor, but that in Cuiyun Mountain, a poor place where ordinary people have trouble eating, let alone money, they don't even have many copper coins.
Most of the filial offerings given to Lao Niu and his wife were pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, melons, fruits, rice and grains.
There are even people among the little demons in Cuiyun Mountain who are responsible for raising pigs, sheep and other animals.
The Bull Demon King wants money, so unless he robs wealthy households and cities, it would be difficult to rely solely on the people near the Flame Mountain to support the Bull Demon King, his wife, his maids, and the little demons.
Princess Iron Fan saw a hundred thousand taels of Yin De silver, and the smile on her face was so bright that she didn't even notice that the black bear spirit was as strong as the lion and camel king.
If the two of them attack together, Lao Niu and himself may not be able to block it.
At least it was easy for the black bear spirit to beat her.
However, if Princess Iron Fan takes out the Zhiyin banana fan, she can blow the black bear spirit and the lion and camel king eighty thousand miles away with just one fan.
The Bull Demon King's mood at this time was that he was happy and grateful that Shi Zhongkui valued him, but at the same time he understood that the Lion Camel King and the Black Bear Spirit came to the door together, which was a vague threat.
While Lao Niu was scared, he also vaguely felt that he might be able to take the opportunity to improve his conditions.
The gift given by Shi Zhongkui was really too heavy.
Of course, Lao Niu thought that his requirements were not too high. In addition to the conditions agreed by Shi Zhongkui, he also wanted a promise that he would not be a servant in heaven.
Anyway, when he thought about it, Shi Zhongkui was the true protector of Xuanmen, and there was no need for him to take action against ordinary monsters causing trouble.
If Shi Zhongkui really promised himself, he might not need to follow Shi Zhongkui out to fight against evil for a few years or more than ten years.
But what Lao Niu didn't know was that Shi Zhongkui really didn't care about one hundred thousand taels of silver, but he was not a fool either.
It is impossible for someone like Yang Jian to appear under his account, who listens to orders but not propaganda.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to lead the team and people’s hearts will be scattered.
Moreover, Yang Jian was able to receive such preferential treatment mainly because he was not only a third-generation disciple of Chanjiao, but also the nephew of the Jade Emperor.
Not only is the master's backer powerful, but the Jade Emperor doesn't want to lose people's hearts, so he can't execute his own nephew just because of this.
On the contrary, he pretended to let Yang Jian do whatever he wanted, which would make people think that the Jade Emperor was magnanimous and cared about family ties, and the advantages far outweighed the disadvantages.
Shi Zhongkui is also more willing to see Lao Niu looking for helpers in order to improve his salary and show his energy and strength.
If one or two of the Peng Demon King, the Jiao Demon King, the Macaque King and the Yu Tao King were called in for help, Shi Zhongkui wouldn't have to go around looking for their brothers.
No matter how powerful the Seven Sages are, if they don't understand the old lion's magical power when they meet the Nine Spirits Yuan Sage, they will definitely suffer the same losses as Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Monk Sha.
The first time Sun Wukong met, he was bitten by the lion's head of Jiuling Yuansheng. After escaping, the second time he met, he ran away without even thinking.
Not to mention capturing the five brothers, the Bull Demon King, the Peng Demon King, the Jiao Demon King, the Macaque King and the Yu Tao King, anyone who is not a speed expert will definitely be bitten by the eight lion heads of Jiuling Yuan Sheng.
----------
Before the lion camel king and the black bear spirit came, they had already received orders from Shi Zhongkui. Seeing that Lao Niu kept finding excuses for delaying him several times, the two of them refused to expose them and hinted with a smile that they would invite two new friends to introduce him to Lao Niu next time.
After hearing this, Lao Niu's eyes flickered for a few times, and then his mind moved and he brought the topic to martial arts.
After chatting for more than an hour and having almost finished drinking, I found an excuse to test and test the capabilities of the Lion and Camel King at this time.
Although it was just a competition of martial arts and not a matter of life and death, after fighting for more than an hour, the Lion and Camel King and the Bull Demon King both understood that it might be easy to defeat the other, but it was absolutely impossible to kill the other.
"The Beauty of the Sun and the Moon"
Their cultivation levels are similar, and their martial arts skills are not much inferior to each other. Unless they have a magic weapon that is like a trump card, the two of them will fight for a day and a night, and at most they will stop fighting each other when they are tired.
The Lion and Camel King didn't matter. Anyway, before the battle at Huaguoshan, he had been stuck in the Golden Immortal Dzogchen cultivation for countless years. He was not afraid of the Bull Demon King in terms of martial arts. But in a real fight, the Lion and Camel King at that time was really no match for Lao Niu.
But within a year of following Shi Zhongkui, he easily broke through to the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal. In addition, Shi Zhongkui taught him many Tiangang earth evil magical powers. When he worked hard, the Lion and Camel King was not afraid of the Bull Demon King at this time.
Naturally, he was excited mentally, but Lao Niu was a little frightened.
I don't know how much time and effort it took to break through the Taiyi Golden Immortal. Lao Niu was a little worried when he thought about the difficulties and dangers involved.
But this bastard, the Lion and Camel King, has been in heaven for one year and has easily overcome the difficulties faced by the Taiyi Golden Immortal. It is impossible not to envy him.
Feeling that the strength of the Lion and Camel King was not much worse than his own, Lao Niu, who always had a lot on his mind, immediately wanted to try the Black Bear Spirit's martial arts.
The black bear had been feeling itchy after watching it for so long.
As soon as he heard that Lao Niu invited him to compete, he held the tiger-headed spear in his hand and rushed forward with a greeting.
Lao Niu saw that the black bear spirit was using a long weapon, so he quickly put away the two knives in his hands and took out a mixed iron rod to block the tiger head spear.
Once they had a fight, Lao Niu felt somewhat fortunate that the black bear was so fierce and tall, but not as powerful as the lion and camel king.
But after a few rounds of fighting, Lao Niu couldn't help but secretly complain, who would have thought that the heavy spear weapon in the hands of this black iron man could actually move so easily.
Lao Niu mistakenly blamed the black bear spirit.
Before he competed with the Lion and Camel King, he also used strength-based martial arts. After all, the black bear spirit's magical power is strength.
It can be seen that he realized that he was not as powerful as the Lion and Camel Queen. He was beaten several times by Jiu Ling Yuan Sheng, and after he really defeated Shi Zhongkui, he shamelessly asked Jiu Ling Yuan Sheng for guidance.
The old lion's martial arts skills were not outstanding, but he asked Jinxia Boy for help. When Jinxia Boy heard that it was Shi Zhongkui's subordinate who wanted to improve his martial arts, he immediately selected more than a dozen shooting techniques from the warehouse for Jiuling Yuan Sheng to choose from.
Not only did the old lion choose three books for Black Bear Jing, he also relied on Shi Zhongkui's reputation to find several generals from Miaoyan Palace who were good at marksmanship and had reached the level of Jinxian to accompany Black Bear Jing to practice martial arts.
