In ancient times, twelve hours were used to time, an hour was two hours, eleven o'clock in the evening to one o'clock in the morning was the sub hour, ugly was one to three, Yin was three to five, Mao was five to seven, the hour was seven to nine, the people who came to watch the ceremony at eight o'clock in the morning arrived, three o'clock in the afternoon was almost twelve o'clock at noon, because there were still four hours to leave the fight, so no one on both sides of the war was present.

Because of the unhappiness before, Ji Shaokang was a little embarrassed after sitting down, and tried his best to get close to Wu Dongfang, Wu Dongfang could understand Ji Shaokang's mood, and did not say a word about the previous things, and tried to make the conversation relaxed and pleasant.

After talking for half an hour, the atmosphere became very relaxed, and Ji Shaokang asked, "The Jin family does not have the surname Wu, where is the hometown of the holy witch?"

"Far away. Wu Dongfang said casually.

"Why don't you bring your relatives here?" asked Ji Shaokang.

"I have no relatives. Wu Dongfang looked up at the sky, at this time, the corona is usually used for timing, people do not need to use the corona in practice, the approximate time can be judged by observing the position of the sun, moon and stars, and the error is not more than ten minutes, and it is just past nine o'clock at this time.

"The Jin clan has hot flashes and miasma, and the holy witch can take his wife to the summer capital and settle here, and it will be more convenient for the widow to ask for advice. Ji Shaokang said.

"I won't call you Emperor Xia anymore, Brother Ji, I like to be free, I don't like red tape on the temple, and when I help you deal with all the messy things, I will leave here and go back to the Jin Clan, I don't do seclusion, I live in the capital of the Jin Clan, I will help you deal with headaches when you encounter them, I will not come over in normal times, let alone interfere in the government affairs. Wu Dongfang said casually, Ji Shaokang is still a good person, but he always turns a corner when he speaks, in fact, Ji Shaokang was testing whether he would always live in the summer capital, if he lived in the summer capital, Ji Shaokang, the emperor, would be in name only, so he simply broke it directly, so as not to worry about it all the time.

"Holy witch, you misunderstood, the Jin clan is humid and stuffy, there is a lot of rain, it is not comfortable to live there, you are the pillar of the country, and the widow can't let you live there. Ji Shaokang said.

"Brother Ji, I appreciate your kindness, but I was born in the south and am used to the environment there," Wu Dongfang got up and left his seat, "I'll go down and discuss something with them." ”

Ji Shaokang got up to send him off.

"What's the matter?" Fei Xuan asked.

"It's okay, I'm not on the right road with him, it's awkward to sit together," Wu Dongfang made a gesture to Xiruo, "You go up to protect Emperor Xia, I won't go up." ”

"I'm afraid it's not right. "Hi Ruo hesitated.

"There's nothing wrong with that, you go up, I'll stay down there. Wu Dongfang pulled Ji Ruo up and sat in her seat by himself.

Ji Ruo looked at Fei Xuan and the others, Fei Xuan didn't agree with Wu Dongfang sitting here, Xun Shuang didn't object, Chong Xi Ruo said, "You go up." ”

Ji Ruo was helpless, turned around and went upstairs, Wu Dongfang sat for a while, got up and walked to the corner, reached out and stroked the stone pillar, and returned to the Jin clan.

The prince was still lying in bed in the wing, Wu Dongfang pushed open the door and shouted at it, "Let's go, let's go, let's get started." ”

"When you are in a hurry, what are you anxious about. The prince yawned.

"I'll come back and get some food, and you can go over early, don't wait for the world to turn upside down. Wu Dongfang went to the kitchen, collected some dim sum and braised pork, and returned to the second floor of the wooden tower, where the four pillars of the wooden tower were all stone pillars, which he specially arranged, in order to facilitate the use of Tu Dun.

Putting down the snacks and braised pork, Wu Dongfang took out the wine from the Qiankun bag and beckoned the three of them to eat and drink.

Fei Xuan and the others have no intention of eating and drinking, what is about to start is a battle between gods and ghosts, not street juggling, mortals watching the battle are like goats watching lions and tigers fight, in case the lions and tigers go crazy, the goats will be unlucky.

Near noon, the prince came, and Wu Dongfang had already ordered someone to prepare a seat for it, right next to him.

"What about people?" asked the prince.

"It's not there yet. Xin Tong said.

"Will there be an accident?" Fei Xuan was always very worried.

"No, they're definitely pinching a little. Wu Dongfang said that no matter what the event, the challenger enters first, and then the champion plays. It's the same with meetings, those who come early are the minions, the leaders are the last, and the late ones have face.

"Where is the drum zheng, where is the drum zheng?" Fei Xuan asked.

"I wasn't prepared at all. Wu Dongfang said with a smile.

"What's the number?" Fei Xuan asked again.

"What's the number, if you really fight, they don't care if you beat the gong or the drum, we can't pull it at all, I don't want to pull it, they are originally a battle of life and death, once the war starts, it will not stop. Wu Dongfang said.

"The hour is coming. Fei Xuan walked to the railing and looked up at the sun.

"It's coming. Sitting in the east, Frost Hunt stretched out his hand and pointed to the western sky.

Everyone got up, looked west at the railing, and saw a group of rabble in the western sky, the reason why they are rabble is not because they have poor combat effectiveness, but because the arms are very mixed, messy, shaped, some fly in the sky, some run on the ground, there are giants, there are birds, and a few strange beasts, the way of movement is also different, the only common thing is that they are very fast.

Wu Dongfang knew a few of them, Jiang Yu and the giant eagle who could transform into a woman, the tall and thin man with a musical instrument and his servant, Fei Lu he knew, and a giant about five meters tall, wearing copper-green armor on his body, holding a shield in his left hand, an axe in his right hand, lion eyes and bear nose, and his face was extremely fierce.

"Is that one with the axe Xingtian?" Wu Dongfang asked the prince.

The prince nodded, "It should be him." ”

"It doesn't look very tall. Xin Tong said.

"Look, they're here too. Fei Xuan raised his hand and pointed to the east.

Everyone moved their eyes to the east again, unlike the old department of Emperor Yan, which only had a dozen people, the number of people in the old department of the Yellow Emperor was more than 100, and the body method used was mostly flying through the air, the formation was regular, and the momentum was huge, and the old department of the Yellow Emperor was mostly gods, and he didn't know much, except for a few that he had seen before, he didn't know anything else.

"The disparity in numbers is huge. Fei Xuan said.

Wu Dongfang nodded, if the old department of the Yellow Emperor is a regular army, then the old department of Emperor Yan is a miscellaneous army, but the number of people is sometimes not the first factor that determines victory or defeat, the key depends on combat effectiveness.

The two sides rushed into the arena from east to west, and after entering the battlefield, not only did not slow down but accelerated towards each other, and the whole group fought hard.

Seeing this situation, Wu Dongfang flew out of the wooden pagoda in a hurry, and shouted in the air, "The gods appeared, all eyes were on, the Jiang gods were in the right pagoda, and the Ji gods were in the left side of the pagoda." ”

Wu Dongfang shouted, and the two sides who rushed forward quickly began to slow down, and Wu Dongfang raised his hand at Jiang Yu and the others to point to the wooden building on the west side, "I respectfully invite the Jiang gods to enter the tower." ”

After speaking, he pointed to the wooden platform on the east side of the goatee and the others, "I respectfully invite the gods of the Ji clan to enter the tower." ”

After Wu Dongfang finished shouting, everyone on both sides did not enter the designated wooden tower, but were separated by a hundred steps, looking at each other angrily.

"Three o'clock in the afternoon is approaching, and the fighting method is about to be developed, please all the gods and spirits are in their proper positions. Wu Dongfang shouted again.

Jiang Yu's side took the lead and began to move towards the wooden tower on the west side, while Goatee led a group of gods to the wooden tower on the east side.

When the two sides entered the wooden tower, Wu Dongfang converged his aura and fell to the ground, he was the chairman of the organizing committee, and he always had to say a few words before the start of the game, and he had to let the onlookers know who the two sides were, and what was the nature of this fighting method.

"The pagoda on the right side is the old department of the Yan Emperor, out of the Jiang family, the pagoda on the left side is the old department of the Yellow Emperor, out of the Ji family, the Yan and Huang Emperors are the ancestors of China, the two emperors are the world, Ze is born, the two emperors have returned to the law many years ago, today's battle has nothing to do with the Yan and Huang Emperors, the Jiang clan and the Ji clan have personal grievances in the past, and today they gather here, aiming to settle the old grievances and always achieve peace, this matter is related to the reputation of the Jiang family and the Ji family, and also related to the reputation of the warriors on both sides. Wu Dongfang said loudly.

"Obey the decree of the Holy Witch. The hundred historians on the periphery should be in unison.

"This battle is a battle for the world, it is rare to see it for ten thousand years, and it is a blessing in life to see this battle, and those who watch the ceremony must not raise their voices, let alone disturb the gods. Wu Dongfang shouted again.

After explaining the scene, Wu Dongfang turned to the north, "Respectfully invite the warriors of both sides to enter!"

As soon as Wu Dongfang's voice fell, a black shadow flew out from the wooden tower on the west side, "The dragon lord is here, who is going to fight?!"

Wu Dongfang fixed his eyes on this person, this was a stout man in his forties, seven feet tall, with bare hair and shirtless, and holding a wrist-thick copper stick in his hand.

"Long Ba, do you remember me?!" A stout man flew out of the wooden tower on the east side, this person should be thirty-five or sixteen years old, a few inches shorter than Long Ba, full of muscles, and using a black iron spear.

According to the expressions of the leaders of both sides, it was not difficult to see that both of them had entered the field without approval, and just as he was considering whether to announce the start of the fight, the two sides had already begun to rush forward at an accelerated speed.

Seeing this, Wu Dongfang hurriedly withdrew and left, "The fighting method begins!"
