Apart from the word "idiot", Wang Xu really couldn't think of how to describe Zhou Sheng.
This matter would benefit both sides. How could a normal person refuse? As a result, Zhou Sheng refused without hesitation. Do you think he is really stupid or pretending to be stupid?
Could it be said that this is the belief that belongs to the protagonist in the legend?
There is obviously a shortcut to take, but he insists on taking a rugged path, as if he can't show his ability otherwise. This is because he has a flaw in his brain, or he is just lacking a nerve in his head.
"How old are you?"
After being rejected, Wang Xu did not fall out, but asked strangely.
Zhou Sheng thought about it seriously and replied: "I have been practicing at the foot of the mountain for more than a hundred years and on the mountain for more than three hundred years. In total, I should be more than four hundred years old."
"It's not like that." Wang Xu shook his head slightly, clamped the horse's belly, and rushed past Zhou Sheng while saying without looking back: "I think you look like a 16-year-old, you have a lot of momentum in you."
If you say it sounds good, it means you are full of energy, but if you say it doesn't sound good, it means you are a tiger.
If Wang Xu was replaced by Zhou Sheng, he would definitely agree, because this is a profitable good thing, and as a beneficiary, he can't think of a reason to refuse.
Zhou Sheng refused. Perhaps, this can be regarded as thinking what is difficult for others to imagine, and being able to do what others cannot. Normal people cannot do this.
Xibohou Mansion…
When Wang Xu and his party arrived at the Xibohou Mansion, the place was already deserted, with only the old man guarding the door still there.
Before anyone could knock on the door, the old man opened the door himself, walked out and bowed respectfully to everyone.
"Old man, where is Xibohou?"
Fei Zhong got down from the car, looked at the plaque of Xibohou Mansion, and said coldly: "You are not the only living person in this mansion, are you?"
The old man promised again and again and replied: "My lord, as early as three hours ago, the housekeeper dismissed the servants, and now I am the only one in the house."
"As expected..."
Fei Zhong showed an expression that I had guessed a long time ago. As the so-called duck prophet of spring river water warms, in his mind, I am afraid that when Boyikao was taken away, that old fox in Xibohou had already planned to abandon his car to protect Shuai.
"Go in and search!"
Wang Xu waved his hand, and the eight hundred soldiers he brought swarmed forward and rushed towards Xibohou Mansion.
At the same time, Wang Xu also got off his horse and led Zhou Sheng and Fei Zhong inside.
When I got inside, I saw that all the rooms were unlocked and they looked undefended.
Wang Xu was not anxious, but Fei Zhong was anxious and shouted: "Ji Chang didn't take away all the valuable treasures when he left, right?"
He said he was here to capture Ji Chang, but in Fei Zhong's eyes, Ji Chang was just a small matter, and the big thing was making a fortune.
It doesn't matter whether Ji Chang is caught or not. Even if he can't be caught, at most he will be reprimanded a few times when he goes back.
If the treasure is gone, then he has no tears to cry, and he is still trying to make a fortune by ransacking homes.
"I report to the three adults that there is no one in the Xibohou Mansion, but we found three hundred boxes of gold, one thousand boxes of silver, and countless treasures in the treasury in the backyard."
Just when Fei Zhong looked worried, a school captain came back to report.
When Fei Zhong heard this, he was overjoyed and walked back anxiously. As he walked, he asked, "Where are the things? Are you not letting others in?"
Watching Fei Zhong leave, Wang Xu glanced at Zhou Sheng beside him and said softly: "You asked Xi Bohou to leave, right?"
In Fengshen Yanyi, when Boyi died in the imperial examination, Ji Chang did not escape in advance, but was directly captured by King Zhou. This is how the story of King Wen spitting out his son.
Now, the story has changed, and Wang Xu can't help but wonder if Zhou Sheng took Ji Chang away.
"Why, you don't really want to kill everyone, do you?"
Zhou Sheng raised his head, glanced at Wang Xu, and asked in a low voice: "Come down the mountain, didn't Master tell me anything?"
The three religions have already agreed on the matter of conferring gods. At least disciples at the level of the Twelve Golden Immortals know the inside story of conferring gods.
Zhou Sheng had been thinking before, why should Wang Xu have heard something about it? Could it be that Master Yuding didn't say anything?
"What explanation?"
Wang Xu was happy to pretend to be stupid, because Master Yuding didn't tell him anything. He knew that the reason for becoming a god was because he was a time traveler.
Now, the matter of time travel must not be mentioned. It's better not to know, but knowing things you shouldn't know is troublesome.
"Hmph, you really don't know how to count the heavens. No wonder you recognize Concubine Liu as your adopted sister!"
Hearing Wang Xu's denial, Zhou Sheng seemed very happy, as if he had taken advantage of him.
Wang Xu didn't want to get entangled in this issue and said, "Let's go over and take a look. Gold, silver and jewelry are of no use to us. If we come across high-quality medicinal materials and convenient magic tools, we can also supplement our household income."
Judging from the foundation of Xibeihou Mansion, there should be nothing that can tempt him, but this does not mean that there are not some valuable things in Xibeihou Mansion.
Sure enough, when I got to the treasury at the back, I saw that in addition to gold and silver treasures, there were also many soldiers and armor left in the arsenal, and the medicine warehouse was filled with medicinal materials.
This is not surprising. According to the specifications of the Xibohou Mansion, three thousand armored soldiers are allowed to be raised to guard the Marquis Mansion.
These armor soldiers are often composed of warriors who have reached a higher level. The weapons and armor equipment used for daily training and various resources for training are all stored in the treasury.
Wang Xu now has nothing to gain. After obtaining these resources, he can start training his own Taoist soldiers.
"What were found in the armory and medicine warehouse?"
Wang Xu didn't care about jewelry and was the first to ask about weapons and medicinal materials.
A sergeant guarding the door of the treasury heard this and replied: "Sir, there are 30,000 sets of Xiqi armors, 30,000 steel knives, 20,000 spears, and 5,000 bows and arrows in the armory, all of which are complete sets of magic weapons."
device set.”
"good…"
Wang Xu was very satisfied with the comparison. The arsenal in the Xibohou Mansion was a small arsenal after all, and having so much equipment was enough to satisfy him.
Before, he was still thinking that it would be good to have 10,000 soldiers in the arsenal. After all, Xibohou Mansion only had a quota of 3,000 soldiers.
"Sir, in the medicinal material library, there are countless medicinal materials below the third level, tens of thousands of fourth-level medicinal materials, thousands of fifth-level medicinal materials, thousands of sixth-level medicinal materials, and countless low- and mid-level elixirs."
The soldier in the armory finished reporting, and the soldier guarding the door of the medicine warehouse reported again.
After hearing these words, Wang Xu was surprised and asked doubtfully: "Interesting, there are more sixth-level medicinal materials than fifth-level medicinal materials?"
"Fifth-level medicinal materials, mixed with some third- and fourth-level medicinal materials, can be used to make a body training ointment called Jiuyu Guizhen, which is of great benefit to warriors. On the contrary, sixth-level medicinal materials cannot be used by ordinary soldiers in the house.
On the contrary, it does not consume much.”
Zhou Sheng is a disciple of Xibohou Mansion and knows many things very well.
Wang Xu nodded slightly, practicing with such a high-level ointment, it seems that the soldiers who escorted Xi Bohou left were not low-level, and at least they must be high-level military units composed of all fourth-level warriors.
I don't know, compared with the eight hundred star-picking guards he brought, which one is stronger and which one is more strategic?
It should be no match for the Star-Zhaining Guards he brought. These eight hundred Star-Zhaining Guards are a powerful force in the palace guarding the Star-Zhaining Tower. If placed in a foreign military camp, ordinary soldiers can serve as generals.
Although in terms of rank, both sides are fourth-level Taoist soldiers, but compared to the Star Guards, the Xiqi Forbidden Army is probably not even a bit weaker.
"What a pity. Although the harvest is not small, we still let Ji Chang run away. If we could catch that old guy... hum."
Fei Zhong rubbed his hands and came from a distance mumbling.
Wang Xu heard these words and said with a smile: "What, Master Fei is planning to go out of the city to arrest Ji Chang?"
Fei Zhong's eyes flashed with excitement, and then he smiled bitterly and said: "There are at least three thousand Xiqi Imperial Guards around Ji Chang. They are not so easy to catch. The matter of arresting Ji Chang should be left to King Wu Cheng.
Bar."
Although Fei Zhong was greedy for money and merit, and had thousands of bad qualities, there was one good thing about him, and that was that he had self-awareness.
In any case, Jichang is one of the four great princes, with followers all over the world. Who knows what back-ups he has prepared.
Three thousand elite soldiers who have reached the fourth level are no joke. When the time comes, they will not eat the mutton, but instead they will be smelly.
"Ji Chang ran away a few hours in advance. It's obvious from a glance that there was a premeditated plan. Let's hurry up and return to the king."
Wang Xu had no intention of leading troops to capture Ji Chang. Seeing that the search here was almost complete, he said: "The people from the Xibo Houfu went to Caikong, which made all the brothers run in vain. I will meet Master Fei when I get back."
Paying for it out of your own pocket won’t make everyone’s busy work in vain.”
When Zhou Sheng heard this, he looked around stupidly. There were countless gold, silver and jewels in the Xibohou Mansion, and armor and medicinal materials were piled up like mountains. How could it be that people were leaving money behind?
If we want to say it is empty, it should be empty with people and countless gains, right?
Zhou Sheng was stunned, but Fei Zhong was not.
Looking at the gold and silver treasures all over the ground, his eyes glowed green, and he muttered: "Good guy, with the care of Lady Liu, you are really darker than me. He is a person worthy of close friendship."
