Chapter 62: Staff Shen Gongbao?
Ye Wen really wanted to arrange all his countermeasures before departure, including what to do if it goes well, and how to deal with it if the situation changes.
But when he wanted to arrange his strategy, he was embarrassed to find that his understanding of the Olympian tribe was limited to just a few names.
Turning to look at the junior sister, Ning Ruxue sighed helplessly: "I don't know much about the Olympus tribe as well as your senior brother. I only know Athena, Poseidon and Hades, and I don't know anything else!"
Ning Ruxue remembers these names because during the days of Changbai Fairyland, Ye Wen put the whole set of Saint Seiya several times when he was bored. Ning Ruxue, who accompanied him to watch, also learned about the names of some Greek gods because of this animation - it was only limited to the names.
He was depressed, but Ning Ruxue said, "But the messenger of the Heavenly Court said that someone might be sent to you as your deputy in the future. I think this person is someone who knows the Olympus tribe very well!"
If you don’t understand, it doesn’t make sense to come. If you don’t do it well, Ye Wen will even be regarded as surveillance by him. I think the Jade Emperor wouldn’t do such an idiotic thing!
Therefore, there is a 90% possibility that this so-called deputy envoy is that he has a clear understanding of the Olympus tribe, so that he can better observe the true strength of the Olympus tribe.
"Who will it be?"
In the following days, Ye Wen did not make any statement, and also told Ning Ruxue and Xu Xian not to tell others about this. While he was familiar with the power he had just obtained, he was thinking about which "celebrity" the deputy envoy would be this time?
As a result, the answer was revealed just seven days later. Shen Gongbao, the general of the Tianting Water Dividing, came to Shushan again, and this time his identity was to be Ye Wen's helper.
"This time I travel west, I need to rely more on Master Ye's care!" Shen Gongbao's face was not very good-looking. I think this job was not what he was willing to follow. It was probably the direct order from the Jade Emperor, so Shen Gongbao, as a general of the Heavenly Court, could only come over with a tough bullet.
"General Shen is polite!"
Ye Wen looked around and immediately understood why Shen Gongbao had a dark face. Shen Gongbao, who came as the deputy envoy, had no followers around him, and had all the armor on his body. He was wearing a long gown that looked a bit similar to a Taoist robe. He looked like an ordinary monk. If he looked like this, he was afraid that no one would be able to contact him with the General Dividing the Water in the Heavenly Court.
Seeing Ye Wen looking at him, Shen Gongbao smiled bitterly: "As Master Ye saw, he came alone this time, and didn't even bring half of a follower!"
Ye Wen nodded and called Shen Gongbao to go directly to the inner courtyard. At this time, fruit and wine had been set up in his yard, and there would be no one nearby to disturb him. After Ye Wen and Shen Gongbao sat down one after another, they directly asked: "What does the Jade Emperor mean?"
As soon as Shen Gongbao sat down, the stone bench under his butt was still cold. He had just reached out and not touched the fruits on the table, but he heard Ye Wen say this suddenly. He was so scared that his hands trembled and almost touched a plate of fruits on the ground.
Fortunately, Shen Gongbao was not an ordinary person and reacted quickly enough. He flipped his palm and grabbed the plate, then put it back on his original position, but said, "What Master Ye said..."
Ye Wen smiled and said, "General Shen doesn't have to be afraid. What you say in my yard can be heard by you and my ears, and no one can hear it anymore! After talking, these words will be the same as never said!"
Shen Gongbao didn't say anything, but picked a grape and stuffed it into his mouth, as if he didn't want to say anything more. However, the rolling eyes still made Ye Wen realize that Shen Gongbao was still trying to discuss it with someone, but he was afraid of the huge power of the Heavenly Court. If he accidentally said the wrong thing, he might not have a lifelong life. After all, Shen Gongbao, who was on the List of Gods, had almost endless life, and the Jade Emperor, as a Golden Immortal, could not die suddenly. If it caused the Jade Emperor to be displeased, then be prepared to die.
Shen Gongbao stuffed six or seven grapes into his mouth in one breath, and then said, "What do you want to know?"
"Yo? Could it be that there are several more?" Ye Wen originally wanted to ask the Jade Emperor that he had come here alone, not even wearing armor, and was dressed in an ordinary monk. But after hearing what Shen Gongbao said, there seemed to be many other things mixed in it?
Shen Gongbao seemed to have seen Ye Wen's idea, but at this time he no longer had any concerns. Because he had already figured it out that he had followed the will of the Jade Emperor this time, and what he did was also an important matter in the Heavenly Court! And this time's task was to ensure that Ye Wen could go to Mount Olympus smoothly, and he needed to provide all possible help as much as possible.
Therefore, saying these words to Ye Wen did not violate the will of the Jade Emperor, and what's more, these words today may not necessarily be heard by the Jade Emperor.
"In fact, the Heavenly Court is very afraid of the Buddha Realm of the West!"
It seems that the topic of mindlessness and no matter how hard it is to go together, it suddenly makes Ye Wen wake up: "It turns out that he is afraid of attracting the attention of the Buddha Realm in the West!"
This is normal. Even though Shen Gongbao is a little down and out now, he is still the god general of the Heavenly Court, who is in charge of the Heavenly Court naval army, and his status is in the press!
Shen Gongbao's words and deeds almost all represent the meaning of the Heavenly Court. If Shen Gongbao was wearing armor and led a group of younger brothers to protect Ye Wen to Mount Olympus, then the Western Buddha Realm would immediately understand that there was something wrong with coming here. It is estimated that the Heavenly Court would be like to Mount Olympus and then to them!
In this way, the Buddha Realm in the West will have time to prepare in advance. Isn’t the Jade Emperor’s plan equivalent to doing useless efforts?
Therefore, letting Shen Gongbao accompany Ye Wen to travel in a low-key manner, both of them dressed in monks will not attract attention! Although there are few Eastern monks who travel west, there are still some things that can cover up the people.
Another point is that if Shen Gongbao stays with Ye Wen in a low profile, then everyone's eyes will be focused on Ye Wen. Even if the Buddha Realm in the West Heavenly World finds Ye Wen toward Mount Olympus, they won't think too much. Even if they contact the Eastern Immortal World, they may also think: That Olympus seems to be in the Shushan Sect? Could it be that they want to set up a chess piece in the Eastern Immortal World?
In fact, this idea is also the expectation of the Jade Emperor. If the Buddha Realm of the West really thinks so, the possibility of success in the plan can be greatly improved.
It is probably not until the last moment that Ye Wen and Olympus were discovered not for the alliance, but for a better fight - and everything was to make the main force of the Heavenly Court concentrate on dealing with the Buddha world.
Having figured out the reason why Shen Gongbao came like this, Ye Wen was now curious about why the Heavenly Court put the Olympus God who had repeatedly provoked him instead of fighting against the Buddha Realm of the West?
"Although the Olympus gods have repeatedly committed a crime, they have no idea of ​​destroying us at all. Fighting with us is just a way for these guys to send loneliness! In other words, even if they really win, they may not send anyone to occupy even an inch of land in the Eastern Immortal Continent."
"Ah? It's not so exaggerating, right?" Ye Wen couldn't believe what Shen Gongbao said: "Didn't it mean that all the forces in the fairy world survived after a fierce battle? Are the gods of Mount Olympus so 'kind'?"
Shen Gongbao smiled bitterly: "President Ye doesn't know that the gods on Mount Olympus have limited desire for power! They are more interested in some messy things, and they feel that the territory they currently have is vast enough. If they are bigger, it will cause them a headache, so their interest in expansion is infinitely close to zero!"
While speaking, it seemed to be to increase persuasion. The magical craft raised his hand and a map appeared on his palm. After unfolding in front of Ye Wen, Shen Gongbao pointed to the open space between Mount Olympus and the Eastern Immortal Continent and said: "In fact, this land is a land that is unbroken. After the gods of Mount Olympus defeated these places, they did not occupy them at all. After they withdrew their troops, they would go back to their original places and let them be empty!"
Ye Wen looked at it and found that this area was quite large. It almost started from the west of Shushan to the Mediterranean coast, and then there was a large area northwest, all empty.
"Why didn't the Heavenly Court occupy it?" As soon as he asked, Ye Wen knew that the question was meaningless. He was so annoyed by Olympus that he could not bear it, so how could he send it to someone to beat him?
What's more, if this large area is really occupied, then Yang Jian's garrison will station in the northeast of the Mediterranean. That would be like exposing his back to the eyes of the guys in the Western Buddha Realm, and he might stab him to a fatal knife at any time. Therefore, no matter what aspect of thinking, the Heavenly Court cannot occupy this area.
Moreover, the Heavenly Court itself does not need land so urgently, so it lets the land be empty and becomes a zone of four no-obs - the Buddha's realm cannot control it, and the Heavenly Court is afraid of it and ignores it, but the only Olympian gods who should be the most are too lazy to care about it.
"Look, that area is not small at all, but these guys gave up occupying because they were unwilling to take on more jobs!"
Shen Gongbao shrugged: "So the Olympus gods are not that dangerous to our heaven!"
Ye Wen now understands why the Jade Emperor did not choose to attack the Olympus gods! Just because the existence of the Olympus gods does not threaten the gods of the heavenly court, these gods at most will cause some trouble to the heavenly court and will not let the heavenly court perish.
In comparison, the Buddha realm is truly a big problem!
The Buddhas in the Buddha world shouted to save all sentient beings, but in fact they were doing it to make everyone their believers, and they never even gave up the idea of ​​turning people from the entire Eastern Immortal Continent into Buddhist disciples. The Jade Emperor was always very afraid of this ambition - he did not want to wake up and all his people became monks, and then he would not listen to his orders.
This is equivalent to digging his foundation for the Jade Emperor, who has already established himself in the Immortal Realm and gradually relies on his people to improve the heavenly court institutions.
If the Buddha Realm succeeds, then there is no need for the Heavenly Court to exist anymore. The Heavenly Court without its people is still nothing. Everyone should go back to be an ordinary monk. The Heavenly Court will be like a death without dying!
Therefore, the Jade Emperor was very afraid of the Buddha world and was very afraid! He was so afraid that even monks did not exist in the entire Eastern Immortal World, and there were not even a few temples. Any temple built in the Eastern Immortal Continent was strictly monitored by the Heavenly Court.
In recent years, Bodhisattvas, Venerables and others in the Buddha Realm have expressed their dissatisfaction many times. Because the Eastern Immortal Realm restricts the construction of temples, most of the temples that can be built in the Eastern Immortal Continent are worshipped by Buddhas, and these Bodhisattvas, Venerables and others are almost impossible for them to have their own temples, which makes it impossible for them to cultivate their own believers in the Eastern Immortal Continent.
Of course, they would express dissatisfaction with this situation, but the Jade Emperor never let go and always tried hard to control the expansion of the Buddha world's forces in the Eastern Immortal Continent.
However, he himself knew that it would not last long if this continued. This time, the Jade Emperor wanted to solve this problem once and for all - directly destroy the Buddha realm, and at the very least, he would beat them away, so that they dare not say anything again: save all the people of the Eastern Immortal Continent! In this way.
"So that's what it is..."
After understanding the reason, Ye Wen didn't find it strange that the Jade Emperor would choose the Western Buddha Realm as his opponent, and he didn't want to pay more attention to the matter there. Now he would still care more about his own affairs.
"What's the situation now in Mount Olympus?"
Shen Gongbao pondered: "Actually... the situation in Mount Olympus is quite complicated, not as simple as it seems. If Master Ye can use it well, he might be able to use the previous means to fulfill the Jade Emperor's expectations of you!"
The Jade Emperor’s expectations for Ye Wen, that is, the expectations for the Shushan School!
In the final analysis, it is just one sentence: restrain the Olympus gods, so that they cannot make trouble while the Heavenly Court and the Buddha Realm are in war. In order to achieve this goal, what should be done specifically is Ye Wen's business, and the Jade Emperor will not interfere!
"In fact, I think the worst choice is to defend in Shu Mountain and rely on the mountain protection formation of this mountain to fight against the army of the gods of Olympus!" At present, Shen Gongbao and Ye Wen are the same group. If this action fails, Shen Gongbao will not be able to do anything! Of course, if it succeeds, even if the Heavenly Court Navy cannot be restored to him, he can still give him some real power positions. Therefore, he is quite concerned about this envoy: "If the disputes on Mount Olympus can be used to cause some civil strife and make them have no time to launch a war against the outside world, this is the best solution!"
"Oh?" Ye Wen didn't expect that Shen Gongbao would still be a guest starring counselor after he came and gave him advice! Ye Wen was now wondering if he had also changed into a brocade robe, then put on a crown, and then listened to what strategy Shen Gongbao had for him with a domineering and mighty expression?
But these are just thought about it. Not to mention how much trouble it will cause, he himself does not have the leisure to do these things.
I heard Shen Gongbao say: "Every time Mount Olympus goes to war, he takes the God of War Ares as his vanguard, but now that Ares has been removed from his title as the God of War, this is the biggest contradiction within Mount Olympus!"
"Continue to talk!" Seeing Shen Gongbao looking at him, Ye Wen filled the teacups of the two with water, looking at him with a look of listening attentively.
"The title of God of War is still highly valued by many gods on Mount Olympus, especially Athena. Her clergy is the goddess of war and wisdom, and there is a bit of conflict with Ares's God of War. Now Ares has been withdrawn from the God of War, Athena is most happy!"
"But Ares would not be willing to sink into this way, and he would definitely try his best to regain his throne..."
Ye Wen immediately understood: "You mean, Athena will try every means to prevent Ares from regaining the title of God of War? What do you mean is to let us unite with Athena?"
Shen Gongbao shook his head: "It may not be that he is united with Athena! We must first find out how that Athena wants to stop Ares from regaining the throne!"
Ye Wen was a little dizzy. After all, he didn't know much about the situation of Mount Olympus, so he could only continue to listen to Shen Gongbao's analysis for him.
"If Athena hopes to stabilize her position with her military achievements and not give Ares the chance to make meritorious contributions, she will definitely take the initiative to launch a war against our Eastern Immortal Continent, and then replace Ares as a vanguard, and take away all the opportunities to make meritorious contributions, so that Ares will not be able to regain the title of the God of War!"
Ye Wen felt extremely troubled: "If this happens, does it mean that we are incompatible with Athena and Ares?" Ares definitely hoping to start a war. Only in this way can he have the opportunity to win the position of vanguard, so as to make contributions in the war and regain everything that belongs to him.
In this way, both Ares and Athena are war factions, and they run against Ye Wen's interests! He can't unite with anyone at all.
"Of course, this is just a possibility! Another possibility is that Athena tries hard to stop the outbreak of the war and does not give Ares any chance to make meritorious contributions!" Shen Gongbao smiled and said, "In this case, although Athena cannot get anything, Ares cannot get back everything she has lost. It is quite satisfactory for Athena!"
"So, can Athena fight for it?" Ye Wen understood that as long as he made good use of these Olympian intrigues, he could completely prevent the outbreak of war.
Shen Gongbao nodded: "But it is not that easy to achieve unity with Athena! Apart from this, the more important point is that whether to start a war or not is not in the hands of either Athena and Ares, but in the hands of the god king Zeus!"
Chapter completed!
