Chapter 1007 Accountability
"This power is perfect for splitting mountains." Chen Xi was satisfied with this move from a professional perspective. "Even if the rocks are stronger and more resistant, they can still be shattered by this power. It's just easy to miss."
"But it's not a big problem. If we blow up the mountain together and then dig slowly, the efficiency will be much higher!" The old man of the Mo family agreed with Chen Xi's statement.
"There's something wrong with your angle of observation." Chen Ji said with a headache, "This time, all the families took action, and the result was such a powerful force. If you really let Wen Hou go to open the mountain, aren't you afraid that Wen Hou will use you to sacrifice to the heaven first?"
Lu Bu's performance this time conquered almost everyone. In the past, we had only heard about how powerful Lu Bu was, but after seeing it with our own eyes this time, we found that Lu Bu was really powerful.
According to historical records, he might have been the second Overlord, he was really too powerful.
"The Star Array needs to be improved!" Nanhua sighed helplessly. This time, their Taoist invention was completely defeated by the Mohist and Confucianist schools.
In addition, the Ji family completely defeated them in the field of summoning evil gods. They lost two people in one event, which was really embarrassing.
As for Kong Rong, he smiled triumphantly. Their Confucianism had stood up this time. Although this kind of calligraphy by great Confucian scholars still had many limitations and shortcomings, it was undoubtedly a bright future direction. Even if their Confucianism did not resort to any tricks, it could still suppress all other schools of thought.
Hua Tuo looked at the voodoo doll in his hand with heartache. If one of these things was used, there would be one less, and even he didn't have any extra ones.
"We need to send people to the Nanman to look for witch doctors. I heard that Zhurong's inheritance is the most complete. I hope there will be relevant reserves!" Hua Tuo felt very sorry.
I originally thought that this thing would be taken into the coffin, but I didn't expect that it would be carried forward now. I didn't preserve those things well before, and now I regret it so much.
"Oh!" Ji Zhong sighed. After getting rid of the evil god, he regained his clarity of mind.
"What's wrong with Master Ji? Why do you look so sad?" Sima Jun greeted Ji Zhong with a smile.
"We have invested a lot of manpower, material resources and money, but in the end we didn't catch anything. This is a big problem. The candle dragon that we caught with great difficulty is gone too."
"How about we try again?" Ji Zhong was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe when he thought of his own losses, and he couldn't even say he wanted to try again.
"Ah?" Chen Xi looked at Ji Zhong as if he had seen a ghost. Something is wrong with you. You are still paying attention to Zhulong and want to do it again.
You value money more than your life, right? You are really not afraid of death.
"Count the number, count the number, and see if anyone is missing." Chen Xi adjusted his mindset and called out to the group of people around him. He was now able to look at this problem calmly.
"The general is missing!" Someone immediately noticed something was wrong.
"Don't worry about him. He's just here to clean up the mess for you. See if anyone else is okay!" Chen Xi said unhappily.
Although everyone was immersed in shock, in fact, no one had forgotten the two individuals who came with Zhulong - Nükui and Nüwa.
However, since Guo Hao was handling the matter personally, they couldn't say much and could only discuss it in a low voice among themselves.
"General, is it okay for you to face those two alone?" Zhao Yun said with some concern.
" It's okay, it's okay. General, there will be no problem with a Golden Crow as big as yours." Zhang Fei said carelessly, expressing his absolute trust in Guo Hao's fighting ability.
Anyone who has seen the three-legged golden crow and the candle dragon trembling would basically not regard Guo Hao as a weakling.
"Bofu, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?" Zhou Yu asked Sun Ce with concern as he looked at him absent-mindedly and with an abnormal expression.
"Actually what I want to say is, where are my spoils? I finally smashed the giant snake's head and it's ready to be put into the pot. Where is the meat now?" Sun Ce's face was pulled long. His handsome face looked particularly stupid at this moment.
"Oh, yes there is another giant snake!" Zhou Yu's face was extremely cold at this moment, and he felt that he was extremely stupid.
"Don't think about it. First, a part of it was crushed by Zhulong, and then it was swept by the aftermath of Wenhou's attack. Do you think there is anything left?" Zhou Yu said helplessly. What are you thinking about!
"Isn't this all in vain? I tried so hard to be the bait, but in the end I didn't catch anything."
Sun Ce glared at him and went to Ji Zhong to ask for an explanation. Ji Zhong looked up at the sky and said, "It's none of my business. I told you this is extremely dangerous, but you didn't believe me. Even though it shouldn't be so dangerous, can you let me be reasonable?"
I don’t even know why this is happening. Let me explain it to you, but it’s pointless.
But after all, it was he who found Sun Ce, so he had to fool him a bit. After promising Sun Ce to compensate the two evil gods later, he wanted to get rid of Sun Ce directly.
Zhou Yu covered his forehead helplessly, expressing despair at Sun Ce's stupidity, but he could not just watch Ji Zhong fool Sun Ce.
"Master Ji, this shows a lack of sincerity!" Zhou Yu interrupted directly.
"Ah, I think it's quite sincere!" Sun Ce whispered softly, then closed his mouth in the murderous look of Zhou Yu.
Sun Ce was very familiar with Zhou Yu. The warm smile on Zhou Yu's face showed that his emotions had reached their limit. If he continued to act recklessly, he would completely anger Zhou Yu.
The last time he angered Zhou Yu, he smashed his bowl and made him eat grilled fish for a month.
He didn't want to eat grilled fish for another month. It was a disaster.
"You make the conditions!" Ji Zhong sighed, knowing that Zhou Yu was not easy to fool. However, Zhou Yu's arrival was just in time, as their family was badly hurt this time, and they had to find someone of importance to support their summoning of the evil god.
You probably don't have to think about the Central Plains region. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu in the coastal areas are good partners.
The two talked for a while, then smiled knowingly, both very satisfied with their respective gains.
"Hey, look, is the space-time gate open?"
Just when everyone was safe, someone exclaimed and discovered a fact.
A group of people started discussing this matter, but no one came closer.
Anyway, the Yulin Army, Marquis Wen, and the general are all over there. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. They dare not get together and cause trouble.
The excitement just now almost made them all excited. Old people like them cannot withstand such stimulation twice.
Then Liu Ying came over.
"Where is my palace? Where is Chengguang Palace? Why is it gone!" Liu Ying looked frightened as if she had just discovered a problem, and then glared at Han Xin.
Han Xin was helpless. He shouldn't have taken this job. He had lost face as a military god.
He knew that Liu Ying was just taking advantage of the situation, but who made him take on the task? He felt inexplicably ashamed to fail in front of Liu San's descendants.
"You don't stay again." Chen Xi sighed. This time the loss was huge. He got nothing and Zhulong was also killed.
I hope Guo Hao can gain something, otherwise this time it will be a waste.
"I won't live here, but you can't damage my property. This is the place I contributed. The palace passed down from my ancestors has been destroyed."
Liu Ying started to cry about being poor. She wanted to build a new one and had an expression that said, "I'm about to cry."
"We'll rebuild one here next year. The Shaofu will pay for it and you'll provide the blueprints. We'll build a palace with a lake." Chen Xi was too lazy to argue with Liu Ying about this kind of thing. After all, they were causing trouble in someone else's royal garden and destroying the garden and palace. So he should just compensate her.
Besides, it’s not much money, just spend some money.
It would be useless for Liu Ying to exchange this for something worthless from Han Xin, so it would be better to give it to him and let him make Han Xin bleed.
"Oh, that's fine with me."
Liu Ying was instantly fine. Since Chengguang Palace was relatively far away, Liu Ying seldom lived there. Besides, even if the palace where she lived was blown up, Liu Ying had other places to live, so it was not a problem at all. However, it would be great if Chen Xi was willing to compensate.
"Marquis Huaiyin, you don't want people to know that your mission failed, right?" After sending Liu Ying away, Chen Xi looked at Han Xin with ill intention.
"Tell me what you want, I'll take it!" Han Xin clenched his fists, and the feeling of broken porcelain on his body became even stronger.
"Compared to that, I want to know more about what you did?" Chen Xi asked with a serious expression.
"That kid wanted to save his uncle, so we helped him!" Bai Qi explained calmly. To be frank, they couldn't escape the blame.
However, the blame still has to be put on Huo Qubing. He was the one who messed up the matter in the first place, and he led the Yulin Army in hiding the whole time, otherwise it wouldn't have been so difficult to deal with.
"Can it be done?" Chen Xi raised his eyebrows. It sounded a bit far-fetched to rescue someone from the long river of time.
"I guess so. Hasn't Zhulong already proved it? If he follows suit, that kid might actually succeed!" Han Xin spread his hands. Although he didn't know the specific situation, seeing that Huo Qubing had not stopped yet, he thought there should be hope.
"Okay, as for the training of the legion, we'll talk about it later. Let's deal with it first."
"Master Ji, please tell me what happened this time." After Chen Xi calmed down, he turned around and said to Ji Zhong in a kind manner.
This is totally different from what you said. We agreed that there was no danger. Why is it so dangerous later? It seems that even the Guards can't stop it.
Although everything is safe and sound, there is still accountability.
"Ah, that's right. The giant snake we are fishing for is actually Zhulong's bait behind. What we want to fish for is actually the bait thrown by Zhulong!" Ji Zhong looked as if he had understood the problem.
"I just want to ask a question. If you summon this thing in your house and something like this happens, what should you do?" Chen Xi said with a twitching face. "Before, I just suspected that there was a high probability that your family would be killed. Now I suspect that you are dead."
Without saying anything else, how can you describe the act of fishing and then being caught by a fish as being so natural? Don’t you have any sense of shame at all?
"Throw the drumstick of the Kuiniu drum over..." Ji Zhong thought about the situation at home.
"..." Chen Xi was silent for a while, and the people from the aristocratic families looked at each other in confusion. How come your family still has this kind of thing? It has been thousands of years.
"If that doesn't work, you can throw Yinglong's dragon scales over." Ji Zhong thought about the situation and said that they still have some in stock.
"Okay, I think your family won't die in the short term if they play like this." Chen Xi nodded. No wonder they dared to be so extravagant, it turned out they had a solid foundation.
"But, Zhulong isn't afraid of these, right?" Chen Xi thought for a while and asked again. Ordinary evil gods can be dealt with by these things, but for Zhulong, these things are just a snack.
"...We smashed most of our belongings in there, thinking that we could make them stop, but we got away with it..." Ji Zhong explained with an awkward smile.
"That is to say, your family has no choice, right?" Chen Xi's face finally became serious. You want to carry out a three-no project like this in Shanglinyuan just by opening your mouth.
At first, I believed your lies because of the Ji family's golden signboard, and now you tell me that you actually have no way to do anything.
It seems that the Ji family must feel the power of the iron fist of despotism.
"But it doesn't matter. We still have an ultimate trick. As long as we use this trick, there will be no problem!" Ji Zhong saw that Chen Xi's face was not good, and he quickly added.
"That means this was a pure accident, right?" Chen Xi looked at Ji Zhong and said, with a faint smile on his face, he looked inexplicably majestic.
"Yes, it was just an accident." Ji Zhong nodded.
"Then tell me first, what is your family's final trump card!" Chen Xi's face calmed down, and no emotion could be seen.
If the Ji family was talking nonsense, then he decided to let Jia Xu deal with the Ji family. They had really gone too far this time. You did this kind of thing in Luoyang without any safety measures. I really think the Han Empire will never forget it, right?
"Xuanyuan Sword, our family has the Xuanyuan bloodline. When necessary, we can offer a blood sacrifice to Xuanyuan, and use the Xuanyuan Sword to cut off all connections!" Ji Zhong said it without hesitation. He had a feeling that if he didn't say it, the Ji family would be in big trouble.
For causing such a huge mess, it is only right and moral that the Ji family must be held accountable.
Having countermeasures and not having countermeasures are two different things.
The former can be given a lighter sentence, but the latter needs to consider whether to confiscate his property. What is the difference between this summoning of an evil god without any safety measures and a terrorist attack?
It's a complete joke on the lives of the people. Why on earth did they agree to such a brainless plan in the first place?
Looking back now, Chen Xi felt that they must have been labeled as mentally retarded at the time, and believed Ji Zhong’s lies just because of the Ji family’s reputation.
…
"So, this is the situation now. What are your plans?" Guo Hao generously showed the Xuanyuan Sword to Nvkui and Nvwa.
As for Lu Bu, he stayed aside to provide escort. Although he knew that the general was also capable, Lu Bu felt that he had to do it even if he was just pretending, as this was given to him by Diao Chan.
No matter what, Guo Hao had done a great favor to Lu Bu, so it was acceptable for Lu Bu to protect his safety. In addition, he had also heard other people's discussions and was curious about how these ancient people were resurrected.
It would be great if Overlord could be resurrected. He wanted to see if there was any gap between himself and Overlord.
