Looking south to Buzhou, near Jinji Ridge, there is a large tent of the merchant army.
"Yi Yin, are you sure there will be gods to solve that wall?"
After the military meeting, Yi Yin was left behind by Zi Lu and asked again about the problem that was standing in front of everyone and could not be ignored but could not be solved.
"Shang Jun should know that it——" Yi Yin seemed to want to explain in detail what he just said.
"Yes, I know that our anti-Xia actions are favored by the gods," Zilu shook his head and raised his hand to stop Yi Yin from repeating what he said before: "But those who are blocking Jinji Ridge are not ordinary 'gods'. As I expected, it's not bad."
, he only has one step left to become a 'saint', right?"
"...Exactly." Yi Yin responded in a deep voice.
"So, are you sure there will be a 'god' to help us defeat a 'saint'?" Zilu frowned slightly and changed his explanation.
"Very sure." Yi Yin replied with unusual firmness.
"Okay, then you go and prepare to attack the third level. I will try my best to suppress those doubting voices." Zilu nodded.
"Thank you, sir." Yi Yin saluted and exited the tent.
There is a possibility that gods will come to help later. Yi Yin believes that there is at least 70% chance.
After all, he was once rescued by a phoenix in Qishan, and Zilu was protected by gods when he went to Xiadu as a hostage. It is very clear that they have factions with different ideas and varying strengths.
For example, the submissive "Heavenly Court" of the Xia Dynasty and the "Western Religion" believed by most of the civilians and slaves in the lower class were the main forces that did not want the Shang Kingdom to succeed in its rebellion against Xia.
On the other hand, the group of foxes from Xuanyuan Tomb in Qingqiu can be regarded as the blessings of our ancestors. The fairy called Our Lady of Golden Light claims to be entrusted by the "God of Wealth" to assist the Shang Kingdom - well, this is taken for granted.
, as for the woman in white who appeared at the end, playing with chains, Zi Chen came here under the order of her master, but the details are unclear, and she is probably not very famous.
However, there seems to be some kind of agreement or tacit understanding between these gods, that is, "they will not take action against ordinary people." For example, this giant wall can block it, or it can fall down and wipe out the merchant army. Obviously, the latter
is not allowed.
Based on this rule, in this anti-Xia war, while the human race is fighting each other, there must be gods from all walks of life fighting in places where he can or cannot see it? Generally speaking, it should be soldiers against soldiers, and against each other.
The generals will fight each other evenly.
However, the opponent did not intend to fight step by step, and sent a sub-saint-level existence at the beginning. This directly resulted in the merchant army camp, which currently did not have sufficient strength, being unable to deal with it. They had to stop moving forward and wait for their division or faction to come.
Help.
But in this case, there is a saint-like being blocking the way, and he also uses magical powers to create a huge golden wall that is obviously not easily destroyed. It is difficult not to panic the coalition soldiers, and because of his phrase "acting against nature"
"The longer the merchant army is held back, the lower its morale will be. In the end, many tribes that have agreed to revolt may regret it.
Now he can only hope that when his own gods appear, they can break through the golden wall in one fell swoop in a very shocking and eye-catching way, thereby strengthening the confidence of the Shang army.

"How is it?...Xiaoyi?"
After leaving the tent, Mei Xi, who was waiting outside, followed up with two steps, walking half a step behind Yi Yin.
"It seems that because our cultivators are too cautious, Zilu is not confident that their help will arrive in time," Yi Yin responded: "And I strengthened his confidence. Also, pay attention to your title."
"That's great, little... Lord Yiyin." Meixi held up the Zhou Army helmet on her head and stuck out her tongue.
Obviously, this is the consequence of rashly promising Mei Xi to "be together forever". Now she is truly "inseparable" from him.
Of course, this is not a simple woman pretending to be a man. After all, her acting skills and her habit of forgetting things can easily be seen through. The magical power acting on her at this time is called "Real Illusion".
The specific principle is not clear to Yi Yin, but the effect seems to be to "install" a person into the illusion of another person, and the speech and behavior are completely controlled by the person who is "installed".
Unless you encounter a spell to dispel the illusion, even if you die after being attacked, the illusion will continue to exist - of course, before that, the "people inside" have long been transferred.
The person Mei Xi replaced was Yi Yin's original attendant. As long as she told him "there is important information that needs to be sent to Concubine Ji, but I can't trust ordinary messengers", she sent him back to Shangqiu smoothly.
The information was of course true, and as long as one added: "For some reasons, the messenger needs to stay in Shangqiu without raising suspicion," the powerful sister could easily handle the matter.
In addition, as expected, this matter was successfully discovered by Tushan Lingling again, but this time she did not laugh wildly, she just circled around Meixi for a few times in admiration, muttering "it seems like something we can learn from", and then left
Lost.
If anyone is fooled by a fox in the future, it has absolutely nothing to do with him!
The only problem with this spell at present is that the subject sometimes cannot distinguish between the "real illusion" and the real body. Even if she has said it many times, Meixi will always make physical contact with him subconsciously - you appear to be a tall and strong man now.
How is this man? I always feel that the way the three female fairies look at him is wrong!
However, since we are talking about those female fairies...
"To be more serious, I am going to discuss the next plan with several immortals." Yi Yin said.
"Oh." Meixi held up her hat again and tried her best to protect her seriously.
————
Yiyin found Tushan Lingling, who served as the "grain guard", and her adjutant Tushan Renren in the rear camp.
Because he didn’t have an identity like Meixi and needed to be seen, the head of Tushan simply used a blinding method that ordinary people couldn’t see. The fox ears and nine fluffy tails were completely uncovered. However, Tushan Renren
Perhaps because it was inappropriate for a male fox demon to have his ears and tail exposed, he still looked like a human accountant and a butler.
"Yi Yin, are you sure there will be gods to solve that wall?"
The fox demon asked the same words as Shang Junzilu, but it had a completely different meaning to Yi Yin.
On Shang Jun's side, the focus of this question was on "will it come", but when asked from Tushan's headmaster, the focus of the inquiry was on "how to determine".
This was a disguised confirmation that "someone will solve that wall", which made Yi Yin feel a little relieved.
According to Shang Junzilu's idea, he originally planned to give officials to all those who helped him in this battle, regardless of gods or monsters, but these fairies refused.
This is natural when you think about it. Although they all look like young girls, in fact they have no idea how long they have lived. They probably have their own purposes in helping. How can they be willing to serve as a mortal who can't live longer than a hundred years?
's subordinates?
However, while they refused political positions, they invited themselves to hold a number of military positions. Tushan Lingling and her fox demons served as "escort officers" in charge of food and baggage, and the Golden Lady and her men became detective intelligence officers.
As well as the "pioneers" who built the bridge and paved the road, Xuandu was on a "ranger" errand and disappeared all day long.
Regarding this matter, Yi Yin thought about it briefly and guessed the reason.
Before starting the army, they made it clear that due to some unexplainable reasons, they and their subordinates were unable to take the initiative to attack the enemies of the Shang Kingdom. During the entire war, they would only perform some non-combat tasks and protect themselves.
But look at the positions they picked.
Before the main forces of the two armies come into contact, should we first cut off the other side's vanguard and scouts?
When stealing a camp at night, do you need to clean up the rangers and sentries?
When the two sides are in a stalemate, should they cut off their food routes and cut off their supplies?
Yi Yin could already imagine that when Xia Jun launched an attack on these three types of troops that were most vulnerable to sneak attacks, the people on the other side looked stunned and motionless, but immediately changed their faces after the weapons were attached, and shouted, "This is legitimate."
It’s a situation of “defending” while counterattacking like chopping melons and vegetables.
It's so insidious and despicable.
"I don't know if there will be gods coming," Yi Yin thought for a moment, then answered Tushan Lingling's question and said, "But I know that since we have saints, then the other side will naturally do the same.
Yes, the saints from both sides will fight directly sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to happen so early."
"Oh? Which saint? Why don't we know?" Tushan Lingling asked, tilting his head.
"Of course it's [Empress Nuwa]," Yi Yin decided to ignore the fox demon and pretend to be stupid, and continued: "The human race, the demon race that has never harmed the human race, and the witch race that neither has harmed, are all within the scope of the queen's protection.
"
"..." Master Tu Shan didn't say a word, but raised his beautiful chin at him to indicate that he should continue.
"And the enemy is naturally the Taoist Jie Yin, no, [Jie Yin Buddha]," Yi Yin said. "Although I don't understand why he wants to target the Shang Kingdom, the fact that the 'Taoist Zhunti' has appeared is enough to prove his attitude.
"
"The idea is good, but it's not bold enough." Tushan Lingling nodded slowly, then shook his head.
"..." Yi Yin was really shocked.
You must know that there are only five saints in the world at this time, excluding the newly sanctified [Jie Yin], [Nu Wa] became a saint a long time ago because of her achievements in creating humans and mending the sky. If you are bolder,
I can only guess at [Sanqing].
Those are the "innate saints" who have been sanctified before the creation of the world. The human race's records about them are only vague legends. With such an identity, it is impossible for them to interfere in the small change of the human race's dynasty, right?
"If you can guess what the saint is thinking, then you are not far away from the saint." Tushan Lingling glanced at Mei Xi pointedly: "Maybe they are just because of some random juniors.
What if you get involved and have to take action?”
Yi Yin understood this metaphor. The reason why her Qingqiu clan came to help the Shang Kingdom was probably because of Mei Xi. The fox clan’s demonic power seemed to come from the same lineage as hers, but she herself was
The real human race is correct.
Hmm...wait a minute, does this witchcraft power attract the Golden Lady or Xuandu?
"[Okay, we've finished asking, what did you originally want to say?]" Tu Shan Lingling lifted the hair beside her ear.
Yi Yin's eyes followed the hair for a moment, and a thought flashed in his mind: the ears on the top of the fox demon's head and the ears in the normal position of the human race, which one is real and which one is decoration?
"Hiss!" The next moment, Yi Yin was awakened by the severe pain in his waist, and the problem was forgotten. He quickly endured the pain and comforted Mei Xi, who was grabbing the soft flesh of his waist with an angry look on his face - she
Nowadays, the appearance of men is really deceiving!
"Oops, I'm sorry, we see that you are so shrewd, you subconsciously mistook yourself as a member of the same race, and accidentally lost a charm." Tushan Lingling opened a folding fan to cover his face: "How is it? [Looking forward to seeing through]"
Bar?"
"..." Yi Yin was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Tu Shan Renren behind her.
"Well, I'm sorry, the boss seems to have done the right thing this time." The male fox demon in black thought for a while and then shook his head.
"Hiss!" Yi Yin was pinched again. He gasped while reluctantly continuing the topic: "As for the three groups of troops after breaking through the golden wall, I hope-"
At this moment, the room suddenly became dark.
"Who broke the sun again?" Tushan Lingling shouted: "It's so dark, so narrow, and so scary!"
No, even if the sun really "dies" again, with that huge wall there, there should at least be a hazy golden light outside, so this situation is actually -
Yi Yin turned around and opened the tent curtain and came outside the tent, and then his attention was attracted by the beam of light across the sky.
The light came from an extremely far away invisible place, but due to the high altitude it was impossible to judge the width. It was not until it hit the huge golden wall that it was at least as wide as two or three chariots running parallel to each other.
The light beam itself seems to be pale white, but if you look carefully, it seems to be gray-black. While it exudes a strange color, it also completely absorbs all the light in the sky and the earth within Yi Yin's sight, and it also hits the light cast by Taoist Zhunti.
On top of the huge golden wall.
The confrontation between the two was silent, and the faint sound of Buddhist chants also disappeared, but everyone who looked at the giant wall could find that the gray light beam was dyeing the entire golden wall.
own color.
In the end, countless fine cracks that made people feel quite uncomfortable just by looking at them spread rapidly on the giant wall. In the blink of an eye, they covered the entire wall. In the next moment, the giant wall fell apart and turned into
fragments, and turned into black powder and scattered away before starting to collapse.
The light beam that penetrated the sky flickered for a moment, then gradually extinguished and disappeared. At the same time, a slightly tired and mocking man's voice sounded from the direction of the light beam:
"[Haha, now, who is going against the will? And who needs to turn around?]"
When the words and the light beam disappeared, the surrounding lighting returned to normal, making people feel as if they were in a dream, but the huge wall that had completely disappeared made people believe that what just happened was a fact.
