Chapter 414: The New King

A leader and ten soldiers volunteered to accompany Xu Ji to meet with the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, and when they saw the endless camp in front of them, their hearts began to beat drums.

One soldier whispered, "I only want one thing, don't gouge out my eyes, and leave me a whole corpse." ”

The leader's surname is Zhang, and when he heard this, he turned his head and reprimanded: "People are the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, and they have already been enough, not to mention that even if you want to dig it, it won't be your turn to ......" He didn't dare to say the second half of the sentence.

Xu Ji said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, when the ancients died unjustly, they would say, 'Gouge out my eyes and hang them on the city gate, so that I can see your destruction', if I die unjustly, I also have this intention." ”

Leader Zhang laughed dryly.

The Hundred Eyes Heavenly King had already learned the news and sent a team of people out to greet him, and the leader recognized Xu Ji at a glance, and said on the horse: "King Wu has not seen you for a long time." ”

Xu Ji saw that this person was also a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, so he replied: "It's been a long time since I abdicated, please don't use this title anymore." ”

"Mr. Xu." The man used Gong Fanjun's name and smiled, "Mr. Xu doesn't remember me, does he?" ”

"Forgive me for being clumsy, Your Excellency has been to the Eastern Capital?"

The man nodded and said, "I don't blame Mr. Xu, there were hundreds of thousands of descendant troops gathered in the Eastern Capital at that time, and I am neither a Wu nor a close confidant of Mr. Xu......"

"You are a mage of the Incarnation Army, surnamed Xia." Xu Ji suddenly had a little impression.

"Mr. Xu actually remembers, my name is Xia Qihou."

The name of the mage of the incarnation army often has a number, not a rank, but a representative of the depth of "mana", the highest is nine, Xia Qihou is a third-level mage, one level higher than Xue Liujia This is the result of the inconsiderate burial of the incarnation king, at first he stipulated that the seventh, eighth, and ninth levels are arhats, bodhisattvas and other characters, and mortals cannot use them, but he cherishes money and things when he is rewarded, so he has to blindly raise his name, and gradually break through the limit, but he himself stays in place.

Xu Ji smiled: "General Xia, this can be regarded as abandoning the road and following Rong?" ”

Xia Qihou does not wear robes, does not wear high hats, and wears armor, which is no different from ordinary leaders, "There are many ways to serve Maitreya, the so-called different paths to the same end, and what the incarnation army lacks at the moment is not a mage, but a soldier." It's windy on the side of the road, please come with me, and let's go to see the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King together. ”

When the group went on the road, Leader Zhang and the ten soldiers saw that Xu Ji had acquaintances, and they were all relieved and looked forward to this trip.

Xu Ji has a feeling that this is not necessarily a good thing.

Sure enough, Xia Qihou controlled the horse slowly, side by side with Xu Ji, and after silently walking out for a while, he suddenly said: "There are actually not a few mages left in the Descendant Army. ”

"Oh, why is that?"

"The golden saint said that the mage is useless, and she will be demagogic, except for a few old mages with relatively high merits, everyone else has to pick up weapons and fight side by side with the soldiersWhen she said this, it was as if we had never been on the battlefield, she forgot, in the Eastern Capital, many mages died on the battlefield, not to mention that if we didn't inspire the morale of the descending army, who would dare to fight a decisive battle with the officers and soldiers? ."

"What General Xia said is, I remember all those things."

Xia Qihou was angry and snorted, "The Golden Holy Maiden dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and after getting a group of surrendered officers and generals, she forgot her origin, obeyed Cao Shenxi and others, and ignored the mage who accompanied his father to fight the country. What now? She abandoned Xijing and fled to the barren land of the north, where she died early or late at the hands of He Rongren. We, the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, who have taken refuge in the mages, are thriving and have become the backbone of the Incarnation Army. This is the Divine Judgment, and the Golden Holy Maiden is suffering the Divine Curse......"

Xia Qihou couldn't finish talking, and Xu Ji suddenly said: "You originally wanted to support the young king, but you didn't succeed, right?" ”

Xia Qihou's face turned red, they had indeed launched a "palace mutiny", hoping to take back the power from the hands of the Golden Holy Maiden and transfer it to the young incarnation king, of course, before the young king became an adult, he must be taken care of and guided by the mage.

"The young king is the king of the incarnation, and the golden saintess is the first to seize power, we just want everything to return to the way it was."

Xu Ji smiled, "Of course." Will the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King help you 'restore the way it was'? ”

As soon as the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King was mentioned, Xia Qihou was reluctant to talk any further, and said coldly: "The Maitreya Buddha and the spirit of the incarnation king will arrange everything, Mr. Xu doesn't have to ask, just watch." ”

"As long as my eyes are there, I'll keep looking."

Xia Qihou snorted.

The Hundred Eyes Heavenly King is known for his ruthless methods, but his camp is still in the style of the Incarnation Army, only roughly arranged, without details and constraints, only the vicinity of the main tent is more strictly guarded.

Those who approach the main tent, even if they have not heard the rumors, will immediately notice the "flag".

It was a banner hanging from a wooden pole, red with red edges and a black background, with no words or images on it, but five rows of strange things, and those who knew were afraid to look at it, and those who did not know it felt weird, and once they heard about it, they would be disgusted and want to vomit.

Everyone dismounted, and Xia Qihou deliberately stayed under the banner for a while, so that the guests could see more clearly, "Did Mr. Xu see the single eyeball on the top?" ”

"Hmm."

"That was the left eye of the former Bitter Annihilation Heavenly King, not long after it was sewn up, on the night of the success, thunder roared in all directions, lightning flashed continuously, several flags in the camp were chopped down, and the Hundred Eyes Divine Banner was safe and sound."

"General Xia hasn't let go of his old profession yet." Xu Ji said with a smile.

"How can you forget the spells you have learned? After the establishment of the Buddha Kingdom, I will still take off my military uniform and change into a Taoist robe. Please, the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King has been waiting for a long time. ”

Xu Dashi did not regard Xu Ji as an equal leader of the Descending Army, so he did not go out to greet him, nor did he make any other preparations.

When Xu Ji came in, Xu Dashi was sitting on a chair and talking with the three big leaders, and when he saw the guests, Xu Dashi raised his arms, but he didn't get up, and said with a smile: "The famous King Wu, I finally saw you, I thought you were just a rumor, not a real person." ”

"I don't do the ...... of King Wu"

"Understood, understood, I heard that you don't even want the title of 'Divine Heavenly King', so I will follow the crowd and call you 'Mr. Xu'. Alas, in today's world, everyone is the king, everyone is dominant, heroes are everywhere, heroes are flying all over the sky, and there are not many people like Mr. Xu. ”

"Actually, I'm timid."

"Haha, Mr. Xu dares to tell the truth, which is enough to prove that he is not small. Come, I will introduce Mr. Xu, this is Mu Jian, the Heavenly King of Suffering, this is Yan Xiaoguo, the Heavenly King of Fu Demons, and this is Du Heimao, the Heavenly King of the Divine Sun. ”

Xu Ji noticed that the names of these three new heavenly kings were very simple, so he arched his hand and smiled: "What a coincidence, I happened to see three heavenly kings with the same name a few days ago, but there are other people, presumably they are fake, and now there is still a Yan Peck Eagle left in Sanguan City, claiming to be the Demon Heavenly King." ”

The three new heavenly kings were all relatively young, and Yan Xiaoguo said coldly: "Yan Peck Eagle is the elder brother of my second uncle's family, he used to be the Demon Heavenly King, but now he is not. ”

"But I didn't hear him say that he wanted to abdicate like me."

"It's up to him to decide whether to abdicate or not, tens of thousands of mouths are waiting for dinner, he let himself be captured, and naturally loses the position of the king and is replaced by someone else."

"What if the swallow pecks the eagle back?"

Mu Jian, who was on the side, wanted to show loyalty in front of Xu Dashi, and interjected: "If he comes back, he will just hand over his right eye." ”

Mu Jian's original intention was to let Xu Dashi know that he didn't care about his brother's killing and gouging out his eyes, but Yan Xiaoguo was a little unhappy, and said in a colder voice: "If Yan Peck Eagle comes back, what to do with it is up to me, and I don't have to worry about destroying the Heavenly King." ”

Mu Jian did not reply.

Du Gou is violent, but his successor Du Heimao is a simple person who often laughs, and he brushes a pinch of black hair on his right cheek when he has nothing to do, which is the reason why he got his name, and said: "Don't worry, the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King is ready to restore the number of eight kings, sixteen venerables, and twenty-eight gods, and there is always a position arrangement." ”

"Thirty-two gods." Xu Dashi corrected that he hated the number "twenty-eight" because it was not a multiple of sixteen.

"Yes, yes, thirty-two gods, and sixty-four devils......"

"Demon General." Xu Dashi's voice became stern.

Du Heimao's face was nervous, and he was about to pull his black hair off, and said with a dry smile: "I'm always so stupid, I can't remember anything, but fortunately, everything has its own Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, and I am much more economical." Haha, I fully support the decision of the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, there is no other word, stupid people should be honest, let the capable work harder, haha. ”

Xu Dashi's expression eased slightly, looked at Xu Ji again, and looked up and down, "Don't gossip, I'm busy, if you have something to say, let's say it." ”

"May I ask what is the purpose of the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King and the Heavenly Kings joining forces to come here?"

"Brother Gong is the best, he is dead, we have to avenge him."

"The murderer has paid for his life, and there is no need for revenge."

Xu Dashi glanced at the New Finger Heavenly King, Du Heimao was slightly stunned, and thought for a while before saying, "The murderer you are talking about is my brother Du Gousan?" No, my brother died unjustly, and before the truth is found, no one can say that he killed Brother Gong! ”

"Dozens of soldiers of the Gong Army can testify."

"Then wait until I see them, I don't believe you alone." Du Heimao glared at him defiantly.

Xu Ji didn't argue anymore, and said to Xu Dashi: "What about revenge?" ”

"Brother Gong is dead, the name of the Divine Heavenly King cannot be lost, we have to nominate a new Heavenly King."

"What about those two things?"

"I will discuss the rest with the new Heavenly King, and I don't need Mr. Xu to ask. I heard that Mr. Xu is temporarily holding the position of the leader of the Gong army, I respect the choice of Brother Gong's subordinates, and when everything is over, Mr. Xu is willing to stay, I welcome it, I am willing to go, and I will not force it to stay. There is only one thing you have to make clear: Did you force the king to die? ”

"If I have the ability to force the enemy to death, how can I be arrested by He Rongren?"

Xu Dashi stared at Xu Ji for a long time, and suddenly laughed, "I believe you, in the vicinity of the Hundred Eyes Divine Flag, no one can deceive me with lies." ”

"With the help of the Hyakmu Heavenly King and the Divine Flag, I finally proved my innocence."

"Innocence. Tell me when you're going to open the door and accept your allies. ”

Xu Ji said with a smile: "I am here for this matter, although our army is weak, but I do not want to be at the mercy of outsiders, the whole army has unanimously decided, do not open the city gate, do not want friendly troops, do not need revenge, do not set up a new king, please retreat the original way, everyone go their own way." ”

Xu Dashi was expressionless, and said to the three new heavenly kings: "Look, it's exactly the same as what the god flag told me, and the god flag also told me that it needs the eye of the king, and both of them, when to get the eye of the emperor and Shan Yu, it will be considered a complete success." ”

The new Heavenly Kings nodded their heads.

Xu Ji said: "Did the god flag tell the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King that we have transported the stored grain to the dangerous place on the plank road, as long as you attack the city, we will immediately sink the grain and fight to the death, and we would rather die in battle than starve to death." ”

The three new heavenly kings stood up at the same time and scolded, only Xu Dashi did not move when he heard this.
