377. When you come to my territory, you must follow my rules.
Zhou Shu looked at Hou Baidong with no expression on his face.
How could he not know what Hou Baidong said?
He knows the truth, but he naturally has his own set of considerations on how to do it.
"Lao Hou, tell me, if someone comes here and the spirit fruit is gone, but they see you here, what do you think they will think?"
After a long while, Zhou Shu finally spoke.
"No one can open the Divine Weapon Skynet except me. If I don't take you away, you will have to stay here."
A smile suddenly appeared on Zhou Shu's face and he said, "It's hard to say whether Tongguan City will fall into disputes, but you, I'm afraid, won't be able to escape."
"I'm a little curious as to whether, as the deputy master of Tiangong Pavilion, I can protect you."
Zhou Shu said.
Hou Baidong opened his mouth, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
He indeed forgot about it.
He is trapped in the Divine Weapon Skynet. Without Zhou Shu, he really cannot leave here.
Maybe now he can use the divine weapon Thunder Hammer to kill Zhou Shu, but if he kills Zhou Shu, he has no idea whether the divine weapon Skynet will be ineffective.
After all, the boy in front of me is a weapon maker, and he is definitely an expert in how to deal with magic weapons.
Hou Baidong estimated that even if Zhou Shu was killed, the divine weapon Skynet would not be ineffective.
By then, he will still be trapped in the Divine Weapon Skynet.
"Did you do it on purpose?"
Hou Baidong said with a gloomy face.
"What's intentional?"
Zhou Shu said casually, "Lao Hou, I am not deliberately targeting you. Although we were somewhat unhappy before, things have passed. During this time, we are getting along quite happily."
"As for me, I just want to cooperate with you for a while."
"You said that you, the third deputy master of Tiangong Pavilion, are not afraid of such a trivial matter."
Hou Baidong's face turned very ugly and he snorted coldly.
Is this a cooperative attitude?
If I hadn't been unsure about dealing with the divine weapon Skynet, I would have dealt with you long ago!
"You must get involved in the spiritual fruit matter?"
Hou Baidong said coldly.
"No need to talk nonsense."
Zhou Shu was noncommittal and said, "You can choose for yourself, continue to cooperate, or stay here."
Hou Baidong clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth.
Does he still have a choice?
If you stay here, wouldn't you be a target for others?
On the cusp of the storm, who cares whether he is the deputy master of Tiangong Pavilion?
He doesn't think that this insidious and cunning boy will give him a chance to explain. By then, there is a high probability that he will be framed!
"Wu Zongquan, you must be clear that Tiangong Pavilion cannot be involved in spiritual fruit matters. Even if I stay with you, I will not act as the third deputy master of Tiangong Pavilion. Don't try to use Tiangong Pavilion to help you."
The power of!"
Hou Baidong said coldly.
His words were obviously a compromise.
"Of course I won't drag Tiangong Pavilion into the water."
Zhou Shu smiled slightly and said, "As long as you help me, that's enough."
"What do you want me to do?"
Hou Baidong said coldly, "Although I have the cultivation of Tianzun, fighting is not my strength. As for forging weapons, your weapon-making skills are no longer inferior to mine, and I can't help you with anything."
Hou Baidong cursed in his heart. He had never thought that so many things would happen in Tongguan City.
Originally, he thought that after staying in Tongguan City for three years, he would regain his freedom, complete the mission of the False God, and then go back to resume his life. This time, the matter would be considered settled.
In his opinion, nothing would happen in a remote town like Tongguan City, and three years would pass quickly.
Who would have thought that spiritual fruit would be born near Tongguan City!
As a result, Tongguan City will not be stable at all!
Hou Baidong has become a prisoner of his subordinates, and now Tongguan City is in the midst of a storm. How can he still be willing to abide by the previous three-year agreement?
Before Zhou Shu came, Hou Baidong had already thought about it. He had already decided to break his promise and no longer serve Tongguan City.
Despite all calculations, Hou Baidong still forgot that this divine weapon, Skynet, was the divine weapon of the Yuan Dynasty.
Facing the Yuanshi Divine Weapon, he could only do nothing.
This is no wonder Hou Baidong. Although he is a weapon maker, he still knows very little about the Yuanshi Divine Weapon.
After all, the Yuanshi Divine Weapon is a sacred exclusive. Even if Hou Baidong is the third deputy master of Tiangong Pavilion, he is not qualified to contact the Yuanshi Divine Weapon.
The master of Tiangong Pavilion is the only person in the world who can use Yuan Shi to forge divine weapons.
Hou Baidong himself did not know the method of casting the Yuanshi Divine Weapon, and naturally he did not know the true power of the Yuanshi Divine Weapon.
This is nothing in normal times. After all, ordinary people have no access to the original divine weapons.
It is because of forgetting this point that Hou Baidong is now passive.
"That's not what you said. Lao Hou, you can't belittle yourself. After all, you are also the third deputy master of Tiangong Pavilion. There are too many things you can do."
Zhou Shu said calmly.
"No need to say anything specific."
Zhou Shu waved his hand and said, "Since Lao Hou you have no other questions, let's leave here first."
……
After throwing the Shenbing Tianwang Company and Hou Baidong into the camp just opened by Jin Kui and others, Zhou Shu rushed to Mu Yuan, Zhan and others without stopping.
When he bypassed the whirlpool and came to Mu Yuan, Zhan and others, Zhan had already woken up from his coma.
He was just over-exhausted before, but he was not injured at all.
Those Tiger Wings who survived were not injured under the protection of Zhan, and most of them woke up.
But on everyone's face, there is an expression of lingering fear.
The vortex that appeared before was really weird.
Not long ago, they were almost wiped out.
"I've met the city lord!"
Seeing Zhou Shu arrive, everyone forced themselves to salute.
Zhou Shu waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be polite.
He called Zhan aside and whispered, "Is the Tiger Wing Army's combat effectiveness still there?"
"Still."
Zhan said in a deep voice, "There are still two thousand Tiger Wings. Although they were a little frightened this time, it has little impact on their combat effectiveness."
"Your Majesty, is there anything weird about this whirlpool?"
Zhan lowered his voice.
This whirlpool is so weird that anyone can guess the weirdness in it.
"This whirlpool is caused by the spiritual roots of heaven and earth giving birth to spiritual fruits."
Zhou Shu had nothing to hide in the battle, so he spoke directly.
"Spirit fruit?"
Zhan frowned, he knew nothing about it.
"The spiritual roots of heaven and earth will bear fruit once every one hundred thousand years. I call it spiritual fruit. This spiritual fruit, like Yuanshi, is sacred and exclusive. Every time the spiritual roots of heaven and earth bear fruit, the number is three thousand, corresponding to the world.
Three thousand false gods."
Zhou Shu explained.
"This means that each of the three thousand false gods must grab a spiritual fruit in order to continue to maintain their status as false gods? Otherwise, they may be replaced by others?"
Zhan groaned and said.
"Although there is no evidence, it is very likely that this is the case."
Zhou Shu nodded and said, "So as long as the spiritual fruit appears, the false god will definitely intervene. The place where the spiritual fruit is born is random, and the false god cannot guarantee that the spiritual fruit will be born on his own territory, so once the spiritual fruit appears,
If they show up, they will definitely grab it first."
"This spiritual fruit is the source of disaster."
Zhan said solemnly, "If we give this spirit fruit to others, the false gods above Tongguan City will not let us go, but if we want to keep the spirit fruit, we must face other false gods.
..."
In an instant, Zhan already understood their current situation.
In fact, from a military point of view, at this time, it is the safest way for them to abandon Tongguan City, restore their original appearance and fly away.
After all, Zhou Shu is not the real Wu Zongquan, and Zhan is not what he seems on the surface.
As long as they restore their original appearance, no one will know that they are related to Tongguan City. It will be easy for them to start over in a different place with their ability.
But Zhan also knew the importance of Tongguan City.
After leaving Tongguan City, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky if you want to bring people from your ancestral land.
"My lord, what do you mean?"
Zhan said in a deep voice.
"We finally held Tongguan City in our hands, we can't give up so easily."
Zhou Shu said in a deep voice, "The spirit fruit is born only once every one hundred thousand years. Every time the spirit fruit is born, the world will be in chaos. Even if we leave here, it will be difficult for us to completely stay out of it." 0 p>
"If we want to gain a foothold in this world, we will have to face these sooner or later. In this case, it is better to take advantage of this opportunity to truly stand on the stage!"
Zhou Shu's expression was very serious. He looked at Zhan and said in a deep voice, "You said, since the number of spiritual fruits is the same as that of false gods, does that mean that whoever grabs the spiritual fruits can become a false god?
?General Zhan, are you qualified to be this false god?"
Zhan was stunned. He had just thought of many strategies, but he had never thought of becoming a false god.
"Your Majesty, the false god is not only a status, but also a kind of cultivation."
Zhan was stunned for a while and then said, "As far as I know, the strength of every false god is far above Tianzun. My strength is still far behind."
"Just because you're not strong enough now doesn't mean you won't be strong enough in the future. We'll talk about it later."
"That's what I thought."
Zhou Shu raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "The spiritual fruit was born here. The false gods in this world will definitely send people to snatch it. This is a crisis and an opportunity for us. If we use it well,
We may get a lot of benefits, and we may even get this spiritual fruit in the end.”
"You said that these people come to rob the spirit fruit. They have to at least wait until the spirit fruit matures. During this process, they can't eat and sleep in the open, right? In this case, we in Tongguan City will provide them with food and accommodation and charge a negligible fee. This is very reasonable.
Right?"
"If you want to snatch the spiritual fruit, your own strength must be stronger, the better. We, Tongguan City, happen to have extra magic weapons. It is reasonable to sell them at a high price, right?"
Zhou Shu said with a sneer.
Those who dare to snatch the spiritual fruit are all leeks in his eyes. If he doesn't squeeze out the last bit of value from them, he won't be Zhou Shu!
"Your Majesty, they are here to steal the spiritual fruit, but they may not necessarily be reasonable with us."
Zhan pondered and said, they are originally a group of robbers, but you still expect them to eat, drink and spend money?
It would be nice if they didn’t rob Tongguan City.
"It all depends on our own strength."
Zhou Shu snorted coldly, "As long as we are strong enough, no one will dare to cause trouble in Tongguan City. When they come to Tongguan City, they must follow our rules!"
Zhou Shu was domineering, but Zhan didn't take it seriously.
"Your Majesty, if we had that kind of strength, we would just take the spirit fruit."
He said with a wry smile.
It is because they do not have the strength to get involved in this kind of thing that they are so entangled.
If they can really suppress those who dare to snatch spiritual fruits, what else do they have to worry about?
After all, the only power they can really use now is this half-disabled Tiger Wing Army. The other soldiers in Tongguan City may not really obey Zhou Shu's orders.
And if you think about it, the person who can be sent by the false gods to snatch the spiritual fruit must be very powerful.
"Real strength may not necessarily mean fighting and killing."
Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice, "The old Tongguan City has been destroyed. We will build a new Tongguan City. This Tongguan City will no longer be under the jurisdiction of the false god Jintong, but will belong to Tiangong Pavilion.
The territory!”
"We need to take advantage of the situation! Take advantage of Tiangong Pavilion's situation!"
Zhou Shu also lowered his voice and said in a deep voice.
There was a look of thought on Zhan's face, and he nodded slightly from time to time.
I also ask some questions from time to time.
The two discussed this for more than an hour, and then Zhan nodded solemnly.
"I understand, Prince, don't worry, I will definitely support you with all my strength."
Zhan said in a deep voice.
Zhou Shu is now an out-and-out leader, and when fighting against him, he almost obeys his words.
When he was in his ancestral land, Zhan had already said that Zhou Shu was the new master of Heaven.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Of course, at that time, Zhan did not regard Zhou Shu as his superior, and Zhou Shu did not regard Zhan as his subordinate.
Their current relationship was only after Zhou Shu came to this post-world.
Zhou Shu rescued Zhan and the others from the fire and water, and led them step by step to where they are now. Zhan and everyone in the ancient heaven have truly recognized Zhou Shu's strength, and they want to do so from the bottom of their hearts.
Do things for Zhou Shu.
"Sacred will not show up easily. Even the name of Sacred is a taboo in this world. The master of Tiangong Pavilion has also been missing for many years. The possibility of him appearing is not high."
Zhou Shu said solemnly, "So our plan has a high chance of success."
"But you are right, strength is our final guarantee, so General Zhan, I leave all of this to you."
Zhan nodded solemnly and said in a deep voice, "The Tiger Wing Army and I will show up at the most appropriate time. Even if the plan fails, I am confident enough to cover your evacuation, Prince!"
The two looked at each other with confident smiles.
"So, let us truly step on this stage and meet the heroes of this new world for a while!"
Zhou Shu said in a deep voice.
Zhan nodded vigorously.
……
In a simple camp, two people who could not sit together calmly now sit together calmly.
When they were in Tiangong Pavilion, Jin Kui and Hou Baidong were competitors. They disliked each other, and even if they met on the walk, they didn't bother to talk to each other.
Now, the two of them are sitting together like old friends.
"Jin Kui, isn't Wu Zongquan your young master? Don't you know how to persuade him?"
Hou Baidong snorted coldly, "He is young and ignorant. Don't you know that wading into this muddy water will not do him any good?",
"Hou Baidong, don't think you are the only one who knows what to do."
Jin Kui said angrily, "How can you imagine the strength of the Young Pavilion Master?"
"I tell you the truth, everything the young Pavilion Master is doing now is a test given to him by the Pavilion Master!"
"The Young Pavilion Master's attainments in the art of forging weapons have already been superb. Being the master of the Tiangong Pavilion is not a problem. However, the master of the Tiangong Pavilion must not only have the art of forging weapons that is unparalleled in the world, but also must have the art of forging weapons that is unparalleled in the world.
Otherwise, how can we gain a foothold on the three thousand false gods?"
"Young Pavilion Master is a genius. There is no need to worry about the art of forging weapons, but he is too young and has experienced too few things, so the Pavilion Master gave him this test. If he can manage Tongguan City well, then he can
If you manage Tiangong Pavilion well, how do you know that the crisis in front of you is not a test for the Pavilion Master?"
Jin Kui said coldly.
Hou Baidong frowned upon hearing this.
Is there still such a thing?
Could it be said that mixing spiritual fruits is also a test?
What ability is the Pavilion Master trying to test?
Taking chestnuts from the fire?
If you think about it carefully, Jin Kui's words are not unreasonable.
After all, the Tiangong Pavilion Pavilion Master needs to deal with the divine and false gods. His every move will affect the general trend of the world. Without sufficient ability, he is indeed not suitable to be the Pavilion Master.
"Are you sure it's just the Pavilion Master who is testing Wu Zongquan? Have you met the Pavilion Master?"
Hou Baidong asked in a deep voice.
"Of course I'm sure."
Jin Kui said matter-of-factly, "Hou Baidong, the Young Pavilion Master has great trust in me and will hide nothing from me."
Jin Kui said in a show-off manner, "You are just a prisoner now. You can do whatever the Young Pavilion Master asks you to do. Naturally, I will advise the Young Pavilion Master on these general directions -" <
/p>
"Jin Kui, you are worthy!"
Hou Baidong was furious. You are the lowest-ranked deputy master, but I am the third-ranked deputy master of Tiangong Pavilion!
Even if Wu Zongquan needs someone to give advice, it would be me, Hou Baidong, not your turn, Jin Kui!
"Jin Kui, even if the pavilion master is testing Wu Zongquan, what he is doing now is wrong!"
Hou Baidong almost shouted, "The master of the pavilion tested his ability to do things. His attempt to get involved in the spiritual fruit matter was a wrong decision in the first place! If he is allowed to act recklessly, he will drag the entire Tiangong Pavilion into eternal disaster.
End!"
"By making such a wrong decision, he will definitely not be able to pass the Pavilion Master's test, and he will never become the Pavilion Master of Tiangong Pavilion!"
Hou Baidong said angrily.
"You know shit!"
Jin Kui snorted coldly, "Young Pavilion Master is right, you are just a frog in the well! How do you know what Young Pavilion Master is doing? You have never seen even one percent of what Young Pavilion Master is capable of!"
"Hou Baidong, how about you make a bet with me? I bet that the Young Pavilion Master will be able to pass the Pavilion Master's test and handle this matter beautifully! If I win, you bitch, you will give me the old master's salary in the future.
Be honest and be the lowest-ranked deputy cabinet master!"
