Chapter 322: The Price

Bidding farewell to the canopy, Li Jing and Nezha quietly broke away from the fleet and flew all the way to the northwest.

Along the way, the clouds flew by, the light and shadow were staggered, and the two were silent. It wasn't until he approached the Nantian Gate that Li Jing, who had not yet fully recovered, seemed to be a little exhausted in his spiritual power, and his speed was slightly slower.

Seeing this, Nezha hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

"It's okay, I can hold out to Nantianmen. Li Jing waved his hand.

Let go of his hand, Nezha followed behind Li Jing with a little trepidation.

Under Li Jing's golden armor, Nezha saw the clothes on the pipa bone slowly blur the blood stains, and saw a few wisps of pale hidden between the originally black and shiny hair and whiskers.

In the past few years, Li Jing has spent all his time in a dark prison with a pipa bone.

Quietly followed Li Jing, and for a long time, Nezha's eyes turned a little red.

Clenching the spear, he whispered, "Dad, the child can't stand you." If it weren't for the child's recklessness, how could he have caused his father to suffer from this prison? The child was wrong, please forgive my father. ”

Li Jing glanced at Nezha lightly, then turned his head to look straight ahead and said, "It's okay." It's just that, in the future, as a general, you must judge the situation and know how to advance and retreat, and you must not affect the whole army with the courage of your husband. ”

As he spoke, he shook his head helplessly and said, "Speaking of which, for both my father and my handsomeness, I am at fault, and I don't blame you entirely." ”

The child remembered. Nezha bowed his head slightly, and after a long time, he asked again: "Dad, do you really plan to help the pig's head this time?"

Li Jing blinked and said, "Tiancang...... This person, although he sometimes acts in disagreement, is a first-class loyal and good general, worthy of admiration. For his father, he deserves to be the king of the South Heavenly Gate. Naturally, we should also do our part for the overall situation of the Three Realms. ”

There was silence for a long time. Li Jing sighed against the cold wind: "Just try it." Everything has a price. It depends on the price...... Whether you can afford it. ”

......

In the tent of the canopy, there was an atmosphere of helplessness.

"Marshal, is Li Jing really credible?" asked Tianfu.

Tian Peng did not answer.

"Since it's a deal, then we should pay the price, will we pay it or will they pay it?" Tianren snorted and said, "Isn't what we paid enough? Hundreds of thousands of soldiers fought bloodily ......"

"In the end, we have to solve it in this way...... Tianxin smiled helplessly, looking up and sighing.

Tianpeng also didn't answer, just stared at the piece of jade in his palm. into God.

In the end, is it going to be knotted in this way?

He had a hunch that maybe this was really his last fight......

......

Among the misty mountains and rocks, a stone pavilion that has gone through an unknown number of years stands.

The pillars were already crawling with vines and plants, and a few small yellow flowers were dotted, and there was a sense of unreal that was not in the same world.

Li Jing hurriedly walked from a distance, quickly walked up the stone steps to the low mountain, and walked all the way to the top of the mountain, where he saw the stone pavilion. and the Tai Bai Xing sitting in the pavilion.

From afar, Li Jing smiled and arched his hand: "Li Jing has seen Xingjun. Farewell for several years. Xingjun don't come to harm's way. ”

Tai Bai Xing also slowly got up and arched his hand: "Chang Geng has seen the Heavenly King. For the Heavenly King, it is a few years, but for Chang Geng, it is only a few days. Thanks to the blessing of the King of Heaven, Chang Geng is well. It's the Heavenly King, who has returned from this expedition, and looks a lot thinner, presumably because of his extreme hard work. ”

Li Jing laughed dryly twice, but did not answer.

After the two of them sat down, Tai Bai Xing said with a smile: "I heard that the army of Nantianmen has just started, but the Heavenly King has already returned first, and he has been tired all the way, why don't you take a short rest, so you are in a hurry to meet Chang Gung?"

"This ......" Li Jing sighed, raised his head and looked around at the vibrant surroundings and said casually: "It's really a bit urgent, I want to discuss it with Xingjun." ”

"Oh, what's going on?"

Pursing his lips, Li Jing said softly: "This time, the Huaguo Mountain Demon Monkey is really powerful. It's a shame to say that my 180,000 troops in Nantianmen spent several years, but they didn't even take it down. It's ......."

Tai Bai Xing laughed and said, "If the Heavenly King is ashamed, shouldn't the Tianhe Naval Army, which is known as the 'First Elite of Heavenly Court', find a hole in the ground to drill into? The Nantianmen army has not lost much damage in the confrontation with the demon monkey for several years, and this Tianhe Naval Army has been killed and wounded more than 100,000 in less than a month. The king of heaven is too modest. ”

Tai Bai Xing laughed, but Li Jing did not laugh.

Rolling his eyes slightly, Li Jing said in a low voice: "I will report on the work of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall at a meeting, and Li Jing plans to ask His Majesty to increase troops to exterminate the demons of Huaguo Mountain." I wonder what Xingjun thinks?"

With that, Li Jing's gaze quietly slanted towards the Tai Bai Xing.

"This is good. Tai Bai Xing nodded and said, "The mortal demons naturally want to be suppressed." When the Tianhe Water Army's plague case and the disrespect of the decree are investigated, Chang Geng and the Heavenly King will jointly play, asking His Majesty to dispatch the Twenty-Eight Constellations, the Nine Yao Xingjun, the Twelve Yuanchen, the Quartet Jiedi, and the Four Values Gong Cao together with the generals of the South Heavenly Gate to suppress it, and they will be able to uproot the demons of Huaguo Mountain!"

Li Jing narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice, "What if Li Jing wants to ask His Majesty to send reinforcements before that?"

Hearing this, Tai Bai Xing was stunned, his face suddenly changed slightly, and he straightened his waist and said with a smile: "It seems that in the battle of Huaguo Mountain, the battle achievements have not been seen, but Li Tianwang has formed a deep friendship with the sin general Tianpeng." Thinking about Tianpeng, he committed an emotional crime first, abused the plague and harmed sentient beings later, and now he resisted the decree and disrespected ...... If such a person is not punished, how can the Heavenly Court serve the people in the future? If troops are sent at this time, will it not be tantamount to approving the matter of the Tianhe Water Army's resistance to the decree? The friendship between Li Tianwang and Tianpeng is really commendable!"

Li Jing's fists tightened slightly, and the smile on his face was still the same.

Xingjun said seriously. Li Jing made such a move, and it was really only because the Huaguo Mountain demons were powerful and feared that they would endanger the Heavenly Court Society...... Before leaving, Li Jing had already seen Tianpeng and scolded him severely, and now he was also full of remorse, just waiting for the war to end, and immediately return to Heaven to plead guilty. Xingjun looks, should you just put this matter aside and discuss it later? It is also lest because of the fault of Tianpeng alone, it will affect the Tianhe Water Army, and endanger the good situation of the unification of the three realms of my Heavenly Court. ”

"Hmph, what does it mean to be small. What does it mean to be big?" Holding his long beard, he said: "Suppress the demon 'big'." Could it be that the face of the Heavenly Court and the majesty of the Heavenly Court are 'small'? In the long run, how can the Heavenly Court still rule the Three Realms? Can a mere demon endanger the Heavenly Court? Hmph, I'm just afraid, conniving at the Tianpeng is the real loss of the big because of the small, right? That day, the river and water army only knew Marshal Tianpeng, and did not know the Jade Emperor Tiantiao, even if there were no bones left, and it was also to blame, what was the pity? If the Heavenly King was looking for Chang Geng today, it would only be for this matter. I beg your pardon for Chang Gung's resignation!"

After that, Tai Bai Xing got up and was about to leave.

Li Jing hurriedly stopped and said: "Xingjun don't be impatient, the disaster of Huaguo Mountain, please let Li Jing come carefully." ”

Seeing this, the Tai Bai Xing turned around with his sleeves brushed up, looking like he was ignoring.

Helpless, Li Jing had no choice but to give up his hand and say: "Before leaving, Li Jing has negotiated with Tianpeng, if we have to pay some price for this, we will not be stingy." This. It can also be seen that Tianpeng is repentant. The fact of suppressing demons is urgent, and I ask Xingjun for some advice. ”

"Oh?" the corners of Tai Baixing's mouth rose slightly. Said lightly: "He really said that?"

Li Jing didn't dare to speak. ”

Tai Bai Xing smiled faintly and nodded: "If he really has the heart to repent, it is not impossible to ask Chang Gung to support the increase of troops......

......

A bamboo slip was placed on the table of the canopy, and there was a dead silence in the tent.

"What are they going to do? They want us to admit to the plague case and make a guilty plea?"

"The poisonous thing is clearly the ghost of the demon monkey in Huaguo Mountain, anyone can see this matter, and now it is going to rely on us, it is really hateful!"

"There is no excuse for the sin you want to add......"

"I said that Li Jing can't be trusted!"

"This is clearly Li Jing's trick! Then Li Jing has always held a grudge against the Heavenly King, and he always wants to take revenge on us! Marshal, you must not make such a statement! Once this crime is accomplished, my Tianhe Naval Army will never recover!"

"There was never a 'we', just a 'me'. Tianpeng took a deep breath and said, "I ordered the plague to be used, everyone, just following orders." ”

A simple sentence, like a thunderclap, drew two sides to the small camp, one side is life and the other side is death.

All the generals were stunned.

After a long time, Tianren raised his big knee and knelt on one knee, hit his breastplate with a heavy fist, and said loudly: "Marshal, we don't need their reinforcements, we will definitely be able to raze Huaguo Mountain if we work together." They have a lot of monster reinforcements, and it's okay, we can go and capture some people too!"

"Yes, Marshal, Kunlun Mountain does not allow conscription, we teach it ourselves, all of them teach the Dao of the Walkers, and we can become an army in a few years! Heavenly Court does not give pills, does not give weapons, we refine it ourselves! Even if it is a warship, we can build it ourselves! We will definitely win!"

"Marshal, I can't admit this crime...... "The veteran Tianfu said with a slight tremble.

All the heavenly generals looked at the blood-stained canopy sitting in front of the table one by one.

He didn't answer.

With his head down, his bloodshot eyes slightly reddened, Tianpeng stared at the piece of jade in his palm, and fell into a trance.

In a trance, he seemed to see the red flower on the moon tree, saw the iron armor all over the mountains, and heard the deafening shout.

He smiled faintly.

The oath made when he took office, the promised thing was always to be done, and if he was loyal, he fulfilled his eternal promise, but it was a pity that so many brothers were involved.

Now, I just hope to win this battle, have a good ending, and get back those souls that have been collected, so that they can be swaddled in the next life

Just outside the tent, within a hundred miles, the fighting continued.

These heavenly soldiers who fought on the front line wore silver armor, flapped their wings and traveled in blood, dodging stray arrows, fighting endlessly in this war that was not recognized by the heavenly court.

They are not high gods, they can't enjoy the incense of the world, they don't have immortals, they can't share peaches, they don't have immortality, and they can't see a brilliant tomorrow.

They were just ordinary immortal cultivators, or rather, human beings who insisted on their beliefs.

They shouldn't just die here and never be reborn.

Tianpeng slowly clenched his teeth and clenched the jade in his hand.

In the faint light, the grim face was expressionless. (To be continued......)

PS: I've repaired it N times, I hope everyone is still satisfied.
