Chapter 26: One Step to Survive, One Step to Die
At this time, somewhere in the city of Chaoge, where there was no trace of the people, an old man who looked like he was about to rot was standing in front of a man and a woman, with a helpless smile on his face. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
And the man and woman that this old man faced, the man was dressed in a purple imperial robe, his appearance was extraordinary, a face of an emperor who was not angry and arrogant, and the woman was wearing a golden palace skirt, her expression was charming and charming, and her temperament could be described as gorgeous, and the two stood together as if they were a pair of golden boys and girls.
At this time, the old man looked at the handsome man in front of him, and it could be seen from his expression that he had a feeling of wanting to cry without tears in his heart, and some did not know how to feel good.
In fact, it's true, it's not just Jiang Ziya who has such a feeling, even Daji and Shen Gongbao, who are in the same camp as Zhou Yan, can be said to have a deep understanding.
No matter who encounters a willful behavior like Zhou Yan who does not follow common sense and is centered on himself, he doesn't know what to do, the most important thing is that he is still the strongest one, and his willful behavior comes from his confidence in his own strength, which makes people helpless against him, and can only follow the trend.
Moreover, based on the various processes that Jiang Ziya has experienced, although Jiang Ziya has indeed been standing in the camp of Xiqi City since he came out of the mountain, and has always recognized Ji Chang's style, and has always been against Daji everywhere, but Jiang Ziya is by no means absolutely on the side of Xiqi City, it is correct to say that the side occupied by Jiang Ziya is the side that he thinks is righteous, and compared with the style of Xiqi City and Chaoge City, it is obvious that the style of Xiqi City is more decent, so Jiang Ziya will stand in the camp of Xiqi City.
"It seems that the emperor is threatening the old man," Jiang Ziya said.
"Bendi is indeed threatening you, because you Jiang Ziya deserve Bendi to do this", Zhou Yan said with a smile.
"The emperor is really joking, you are the sun high above, and I am just a bad old man who has stepped into the grave with half a foot, what value can I have worthy of the emperor to treat me like this", Jiang Ziya looked at Zhou Yan with a wry smile.
"Jiang Ziya, you don't have to be presumptuous, just the three words of you Jiang Ziya are worth making an exception for this emperor to do for you", Zhou Yan shook his head, and didn't explain anything to Jiang Ziya, just said.
Perhaps, the people of this world don't really know what the three words Jiang Ziya represent, but Zhou Yan, who came from the Three Realms, how could he not know the true value of Jiang Ziya.
Although in the battle of Shang and Zhou, Jiang Ziya's strength was not outstanding, and even compared to most of the generals and monks on the battlefields on both sides at that time, it was still a little low, but even so, no one could erase the important role that Jiang Ziya played in it.
As a master of the art of war and a master of tactics, the rise of the Zhou Dynasty has flourished, and it has an inseparable relationship with Jiang Ziya.
During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, King Ji Chang of Zhou Wen worshiped as the right spirit platform, and King Wu of Zhou worshiped as his father, led the 36 road army to crusade against Yin Shang, held the whip of the gods, established the god platform, led the edict of the ancestors, and sealed the gods on behalf of the sky, which is the value of Jiang Ziya, and also the role of Jiang Ziya.
One person can lead 100,000 soldiers, a word can be worth 100,000 generals, and he has created his own art of war, six Taos and three strategies, and is called the ancestor of the military family by the people of the Three Realms, which is not a legend, but a fact, a fact that has happened.
Let's ask, such a talent, even if he is not the real Jiang Ziya in front of him, but Jiang Ziya's resemblance in this world, but as long as he has a trace of value, how can Zhou Yan let him go.
Jiang Ziya in the Three Realms, because of his own root bones, and had no chance of immortal Dao, and finally after enjoying all the glory and wealth, he ran out of life and died of old age among the human race in the earth realm, but Jiang Ziya in this world has reached the height of the realm of the Innocent Golden Immortal, and there is no limit to lifespan, which can be said to be more valuable.
Even if Jiang Ziya, who has led to this world because of the improvement of the Immortal Dao qualification, may not have the talent of ghosts and gods in terms of the art of war and strategy, but in Zhou Yan's heart, it should be enough to be independent, because he has such potential in his body.
Moreover, most of the people on Huaguo Mountain are practicing the ordinary way of the five elements, or the way of Buddhism (such as inspiration, lion lynx, Sai Tai Sui and other demon clans from Western Heaven Buddhism practice Buddhism), and even practice ghost paths (Zhong Kui, Zhong Ling, Xiao Qian, Xiao Zhuo and others).
However, there is no subordinate existence who has practiced to the real Taoist law, although Ling Xuozi, who was born in Heifeng Mountain, is good at alchemy, and is also very obsessed with the method of alchemy, but after all, he is born in the wild road, and what he practices is still the ordinary way of the five elements, not Taoist orthodoxy, in fact, the exercises practiced in the demons of Huaguo Mountain are probably the closest to the Taoist exercises that Zhou Yan once rescued from the Leifeng Pagoda Bai Suzhen, who studied under the old mother of Li Shan, practiced the method that belongs to the Taoist side door, and it is not Taoist orthodoxy。
Therefore, Jiang Ziya, a monk who inherits the orthodox cultivation of Taoism, naturally has an important attraction for Zhou Yan and the Huaguo Mountain Demon Clan.
As for Shen Gongbao, although the Shen Gongbao in the Three Realms is also practicing Taoist orthodox exercises, it is obvious that what Shen Gongbao in this world is practicing is a side-door exercise that focuses on demon dao cultivation, although it is not a demon Dao exercise, but it is not a Taoist orthodox exercise, so for the positioning of Shen Gongbao in this world, Zhou Yan is more focused on seeing him as a thug and a general, rather than a strategist.
"It seems that the emperor, you are bound to win the old man, it seems that the old man has no second way to go?", Jiang Ziya said leisurely.
"Surrender, or death, this is the choice given to you by this emperor, the talent who can be used by this emperor is the real talent, and the talent who cannot be used by this emperor, do you think this emperor will care about your life?", looking at Jiang Ziya, who looked very helpless on his face, Zhou Yan's expression became indifferent, and he said sharply, without giving Jiang Ziya a chance to hesitate.
Hearing Zhou Yan's ultimatum, Jiang Ziya lowered his head slightly, stroking the condensing whip that had returned to his hand in his hand, his brows furrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
In fact, the situation on the field is now very obvious, Ji Fa and Ji Lei from Xiqi City have died here, and Shen Gongbao is only seriously injured, although Daji has some loss because of the use of the Spirit Orb and the spiritual battle, but the strength has not been weakened too much, and Zhou Yan is in his heyday, without any damage.
At this time, Jiang Ziya, who was already injured at the level of the primordial gods, even if he wanted to escape from here, he was powerless, and he couldn't escape Zhou Yan's palm at all.
At this time, Jiang Ziya, because he has been in the world for decades, under the polishing of Hongchen, it is not as indifferent as when he just came out of the mountain, and the emotions of human nature are as indifferent as Zhou Yan's strong persecution.
Xiqi City has affection for him, Ji Chang has righteousness to him, he has been staying in Xiqi City since he came out of the mountain, and decades of time have made Jiang Ziya have his own feelings for Xiqi City, otherwise, this time Ji Fa and others came here to rescue the Ling clan people in Chaoge City, and Jiang Ziya would not agree to Ji Chang to protect them and others in secret.
It's a pity that fate made Jiang Ziya and the others meet Zhou Yan and this person who should not have appeared in the historical trajectory of this world.
Facing Zhou Yan's pressing step by step, facing Zhou Yan's ultimatum, Jiang Ziya's heart didn't seem to know what to do.
Zhou Yan's eyes looked at Jiang Ziya lightly, and he didn't force Jiang Ziya anymore, because he knew that his attitude had been very clear, and the rest depended on Jiang Ziya's own choice
It takes great courage to survive in one step, to die in one step, but sometimes, it is even more difficult to live.
Time passed little by little, and Jiang Ziya, who was still bowing his head, still did not show his attitude, but Zhou Yan did not become anxious because of Jiang Ziya's hesitation, but took a fancy to Jiang Ziya even more.
This kind of person is a person who has a lot of money in the wall, no matter where he is, but he will not be really valued, and the traitor is also a grudge for every person in power, because he can take refuge in you today because of his life, and tomorrow how can you guarantee that he will not also take refuge in others for such reasons, so unless such a person has a very clear attitude, no matter where he is, he will not be really valued by the person in power, nor will he really be regarded as a confidant, and can only become a dispensable existence like cannon fodder.
It's like Daji, it's like Shen Gongbao, these two people have never really been valued in Zhou Yan's eyes at this time, Zhou Yan just gave them a chance to show their value.
As for the charm who surrendered to her before, if she hadn't been sincere enough to let herself cast the seal of life and death on her body, she wouldn't even dare to accept the charm, and she could only be killed together with the ghost, because a strong person in the realm of Da Luo Jin Immortal with a different heart is a very unstable factor, and it is easy to affect the safety of the entire Huaguo Mountain Demon Clan, even if Zhou Yan is strong, he doesn't dare to use her easily, because Zhou Yan himself can guard against it, but the rest of the people on Huaguo Mountain are difficult to guard against.
You must know that even the three demons of the original Lion Camel Kingdom who had followed the Great Sage Lion Camel King to join Zhou Yan together, Zhou Yan did not fully trust them, if it weren't for the previous Huaguo Mountain crisis, the Jinpeng Demon God stepped forward to fight against the Dragon, and bought a certain amount of time for Zhou Yan's return, Zhou Yan would not have given the bitter spring halberd hidden in his hand to the Jinpeng Demon God.
Everything in the world is rewarded only if there is pay, and it is with the dedication of the Jinpeng Demon God that Zhou Yan returns to him.
Jiang Ziya in front of him did not reply to Zhou Yan positively after half a stick of incense, which can only show that Jiang Ziya's heart is indeed spent in a tangled wandering, and his heart can't deceive himself.
It's just that, looking at Jiang Ziya's somewhat depressed expression, Zhou Yan hoped that Jiang Ziya could give him a satisfactory answer, otherwise, he would really not show mercy to his subordinates.
At this moment, Zhou Yan still didn't know what the true purpose of the Moonlight Treasure Box was to bring himself into this world, so Zhou Yan didn't have much energy to focus on Xiqi City, which was making wind and rain.
