Mortal Immortal Gourd

The Holy Emperor Longxing looked at the two memorials in his hand, which told the same story.

Both reported to the court that three counties in Qingzhou were occupied by demons.

However, the attitudes shown by the two were very different.

Xia Mingyuan, the general of Qingzhou, had the strength of a Nascent Soul and had been stationed in Qingzhou for hundreds of years. He was defeated by the offensive of the demon army.

In addition to losing the city and the land, he also tried his best to shirk responsibility.

The war had already been so bad, but he still had the face to ask the court for elixirs, spirit stones, and various benefits.

In this way, there were still many officials in the court who were in the same boat with Xia Mingyuan, helping Yuan to speak and exonerate him.

The Great Zhou Dynasty had experienced more than 10,000 years, and various chronic diseases had accumulated, and it was difficult to change the old habits.

He had been on the throne for more than 100 years, and he looked around.

The court was full of people who only wanted to cry poor to the superiors and ask for benefits, and did nothing to the subordinates. There was no one who could be used.

In the past, the whole court was like this, and he had no one to use. Facing people like Xia Mingyuan, he could only endure it.

Now he saw a completely different memorial.

Zhang Ergou, the governor of Sanyang County, was in the middle stage of foundation building. With the power of only one county, he faced the attack of monsters and defended Sanyang County for many years without losing an inch of land.

This time, he also faced the attack of monsters and lost three counties.

Zhang Ergou did not ask him for any benefits. Instead, he showed a sincere patriotic heart and vowed to recover the lost land.

The Longxing Holy Emperor was very relieved that there were still loyal ministers in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Recently, he saw some hope from two people, which made his heart unwilling to be ordinary also move.

He was still young and in his prime. He wanted to be a wise leader of the revival. He wanted to change the accumulated problems and revive the government.

However, Zhang Ergou only said this to him at present, and he needed to listen to his words and observe his actions before he could see clearly.

Thinking of this, the Longxing Holy Emperor handed the two memorials to a close attendant beside him.

"Ji Song, take a look at these two memorials. What do you think of Zhang Ergou of Sanyang County?"

This attendant is also a member of the royal family. He has been his confidant for hundreds of years and is one of the few reliable people around the Holy Emperor Longxing.

"I have heard of the governor of Sanyang County. Your Majesty has long known about his military exploits, so let's not talk about them for now.

It is said that under his governance, Sanyang County has gone from being uninhabited to the richest place in the surrounding states, with a population of more than 2 million.

The local people all call him the Lord of the Clear Sky.

If the rumors are true, this person must be very good at herding people."

The Holy Emperor Longxing nodded when he heard this. It seems that this person is a lucky general and a capable minister with good herding skills.

"As the saying goes, what you hear is not what you see. Please help me visit Sanyang County secretly to see what the governor of Sanyang County is like..."

…………

……

After sending the memorial, Er Gouzi began to organize people and prepare for battle.

This time he was not bragging to the emperor, but he had been planning for a long time and really intended to take back Liusha and Xiaoyi counties to make his boast come true.

In Sanyang County, after years of accumulation, there are more than 300 foundation-building cultivators and more than 2,000 Qi-refining cultivators.

There are also those child soldiers trained by the Nursing Hall, many of whom now have Qi-refining skills.

Most of these child soldiers have good talents, and their small bodies contain great power.

In addition to practicing since childhood, they have also read a lot of sage books, and their character is upright and reliable.

If there is a shortage of manpower, these child soldiers can also be of great use.

As for the hundreds of puppets collected by Er Gouzi, it is estimated that they don't need to be used.

The puppets are strong in combat and are indeed useful, but they consume too many spirit stones.

Each puppet was equipped with 500 low-grade spirit stones. After a fierce battle, they were almost all turned into ash.

Er Gouzi watched the puppet chop with every powerful blow, and his spirit stones were burning.

At present, the main force of the demons was concentrated in the direction of the Qingzhou Army by General Donkey. There were not many people in Liusha and Xiaoyi County.

Even the attention of the Nascent Soul Bee Patriarch was focused on Xia Mingyuan.

Now is the time when the defense of these two counties is the most empty. If they don’t take it now, when will they take it?

The only thing that worried him was the Bee Patriarch.

At this time, Zhu’er used the spider silk escape method and took Er Gouzi to fly in the sky, flying towards the residence of the Bee Patriarch.

Er Gouzi was still a little uneasy in his heart. He was worried that the Bee Patriarch would slap him to death as soon as they met.

This time, he completely relied on Zhu’er to give himself courage, otherwise he would never dare to come.

The two flew in the sky for more than half an hour and rushed to a cliff.

The Bee Patriarch dug a temporary cave on this cliff.

Zhu'er brought Er Gouzi to the entrance of the cave and called out loudly at the entrance.

"Zhu'er is here to pay respects to Senior Feng."

Before she finished her words, she saw the four-winged Feng Ancestor appear at the entrance of the cave.

When Feng Ancestor saw Zhu'er, he immediately showed a very kind face.

"Oh, it turns out that Zhu'er is here, come in and sit down."

"It's been many years since we last met..."

When Feng Ancestor saw Zhu'er, he seemed very kind, just like an elder seeing his younger generation.

As for Er Gouzi beside Zhu'er, he was completely ignored.

How could a mere foundation-building cultivator be in his eyes?

Zhu'er took Er Gouzi's hand and introduced him to Feng Ancestor.

"This is Zhang Ergou, the man I've been waiting for for 1,000 years."

When Zhu'er introduced Ergou, her face was full of sweet smiles.

She felt that since her man was so outstanding, she should let everyone in the world know about him.

"So you are Zhang Ergou from Sanyang County. I've heard of your name for a long time."

At this time, the look in the eyes of the old ancestor Feng towards Ergou showed a little respect.

This little respect was just to give face to Zhu'er, or to be more precise, to give face to the colorful lady behind her.

"You two have come from afar, please take a seat, I just happen to have some spiritual tea from Yunwu Mountain here."

The spiritual tea from Yunwu Mountain is famous throughout the cultivation world. Many high-level cultivators will collect some of it to entertain guests or drink for themselves.
