Chapter 74 Ambition
The Seven Monsters of Meishan fulfilled their bet and were willing to follow Deng Zhong down the mountain. Seeing that Jin Dasheng and Dai Li were injured, Deng Zhong asked Yuan Hong to get a bowl of water. Although Yuan Hong was puzzled, he still obeyed.
Soon, Yuan Hong brought a bowl of water, and Deng Zhong took out a pot of golden elixir from the space, opened the lid of the pot, poured one pill from inside, put it into the water, crushed it with his thumb, and then let Jin Dasheng and Dai
Apply it to the wound.
The two of them were a little moved. They untied their clothes and applied the medicine to the wound. A cool feeling spread throughout their bodies. They were surprised to find that the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, without leaving even a scar.
"The two of us admire the immortal's methods."
The two quickly thanked him.
Yuan Hong and others admired Deng Zhong's methods even more. Meishan has no shortage of natural materials and treasures, but this is the first time they have seen this magical elixir. In their hearts, there is no doubt that Deng Zhong is an immortal.
Giving a sweet date with a slap in the face was just a tactic to control his subordinates. Naturally, Deng Zhong did not hesitate to use it. Anyway, there were four pots of elixirs in the system space, which was enough for him to squander.
"I am none other than Deng Zhong, the deputy general of the Western Expedition of the Great Shang Dynasty. I see that you guys have good looks and strong abilities. It will be a blessing to come with me to Xiqi to perform meritorious service. You will be granted the title of marquis and prime minister in the future."
The seven monsters were a little surprised, looked at each other, and then said: "We are willing to follow the immortal and make contributions."
Among the seven monsters, Yuan Hong has long wanted to go down the mountain, and the other six monsters also want to see the human world, so they are not opposed to going to the battlefield.
Yuan Hong cupped his hands and said, "I wonder what Vice-General Deng has ordered."
The seven weirdos said in unison, but in their hearts, Deng Zhong was a profound immortal, otherwise they would not dare to go up to Meishan alone.
After driving for a long time, seeing that a few people were quite honest, Deng Zhong asked them to stop and take a rest before continuing on their way.
The Immortal Binding Rope is indeed a magic weapon of the Immortal Family. Even though Yuan Hong is proficient in the Eight-nine Mysterious Techniques and can allow his soul to leave the body, he can't do anything after being tied up. He is like fish on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered by others.
After all, he had just met these monsters today, and Deng Zhong had no confidence in their loyalty. He was thinking that if anyone dared to run away, he would never show mercy.
Deng Zhongdao: "When you get to Jinjiling, if someone asks you how you joined Dashang, what should you say?"
It's so comfortable to be a demon king in Meishan. I went to the battlefield with Deng Zhong to risk my life. If one mistake was made and my life was lost, wouldn't it be sad? How could Jiaolong agree?
On the contrary, Jiaolong was secretly happy. Once the Seven Sages left, he would no longer have the final say in the entire Meishan Mountain. Now, he, the Jiaolong King, would truly take control. Hehe, the first thing to do is to recruit the demon soldiers of the Seven Sages.
"yes."
"You little beast obeys your orders."
Deng Zhong nodded and said: "Although you are demons, when you arrive at the camp, we will treat you equally. I don't ask much of you. You must obey my orders absolutely. Can you do it?"
Yuan Hong thought for a while and said: "My subordinates will say that they are impressed by Deputy General Deng's ability and are willing to serve with the army."
After all, it is easy to announce it, but it is difficult not to make people suspicious. First of all, he forges a master for himself, and secondly, there is a process of learning skills. Before the announcement, Deng Zhong planned to leave the Xiqi battlefield for a month or two.
Among the seven monsters, Yuan Hong has the strongest ability. In the original book, he fought a close match with Yang Jian with an iron rod, and was finally captured by Yang Jian after he got the "Mountains, Rivers and State Map" given by Nuwa.
Jiaolong hurriedly said: "Exalted Immortal, this little beast has low magic power. He went to the battlefield and was afraid of embarrassment to you."
Deng Zhong said displeased: "Go if you are told to go, why is there all this nonsense!"
Although he was defeated by Deng Zhong's magic weapon, the magic weapon was also a kind of comprehensive strength, so Yuan Hong was not dissatisfied. He had practiced in Meishan for thousands of years, and since he learned the Eight-nine Mysterious Techniques, he has been firmly ranked as the number one demon king in Meishan.
The throne has not only six sworn brothers, but also many demon soldiers under his command.
Deng Zhong said: "Then let's go down the mountain."
Wen that the Grand Master was not here, Fairy Caiyun knew her identity. Apart from being more concerned about dealing with Jiang Ziya, she basically didn't care about other things. She probably wouldn't ask. But just in case, Deng Zhong still had to explain it to avoid Yuan Hong.
If you spill the beans, you will cause unnecessary trouble to yourself.
Although he has decades of cultivation, when it comes to magic, he is really not as good as the Seven Monsters of Meishan. He has just won three games in a row, just with the help of magic weapons. Not to mention Jin Dasheng and Zhu Zizhen, Yuan Hong has not yet fully used his skills.
When he came out, he was bound by himself with the immortal rope.
Yuan Hong not only had great supernatural powers, but also had the talents of a general. Deng Zhong decided to cultivate such a person. As for the other demons, whether they could survive on the battlefield depended on their abilities.
Deng Zhong suddenly appeared. Although he acted domineeringly, he fulfilled Yuan Hong's wish.
Yuan Hong was very confident in his abilities. He believed that after going to the battlefield, he could better display his talents and achieve several great achievements. As Deng Zhong said, being granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister was not a blessing.
Deng Zhongdao: "That's okay, but we have to mention our bet."
But after hundreds of years of leisure in Meishan, he heard too much about the prosperity of the world, and gradually became attracted to it. In the process, he learned to read, read, and know etiquette.
According to what he learned, there were many Qi Refiners serving as generals in Dashang, including many generals who were in charge of one side. They were so majestic that he envied him. But no one recommended him and he was a demon. He knew that he wanted to achieve this.
Desires are as difficult as reaching the sky.
It can be said that the more subordinates he has, the more Deng Zhong can truly win.
He was just a cannon fodder, and Deng Zhong didn't expect Jiaolong to make much contribution.
"Yuan Hong, come here."
The identity of a mortal military commander is somewhat difficult to use. Deng Zhong plans to find a way to announce that he is a Qi Refiner. Of course, he has to find the right time to announce it.
Jiaolong knew that if he didn't agree, Deng Zhong would never show mercy.
Yuan Hong said: "I understand."
If they can survive, they will be their own capable men. If they cannot survive, half of their inheritance will belong to them. For them, no matter what the outcome is, it will be beneficial to them.
Yuan Hong said: "This subordinate knows that military orders are like mountains."
Over the years, he has been working hard in private, using his supernatural powers to collect many books from Chaoge. Whenever he has time, he will study hard in order to prepare for his future down the mountain as a general.
The purpose of coming to Meishan was achieved, and Deng Zhong was eager to return home.
Deng Zhong said: "You don't need to call me an immortal. I'm not an immortal. I'm just an ordinary general from Dashang. Just call me Deputy General Deng."
This is definitely a powerful demon king.
…
The group of people left Meishan and headed for Jinjiling. The Seven Monsters of Meishan and the Dragon King were both skilled in magic, so they each cast spells on their way. Deng Zhong followed them leisurely, doing so to monitor them.
The seven monsters returned to the cave to clean up and pay their respects. Deng Zhong saw that the dragon wanted to escape, so he said: "You don't have to go back. Come with me to Jinji Ridge."
Deng Zhongdao: "Yes, that's exactly it. Only by enforcing orders and prohibitions and strict discipline can we be called a strong army and be feared by the enemy on the battlefield."
Yuan Hong seemed to have some understanding and nodded solemnly.
Deng Zhong said: "Okay, I have finished speaking. Let's continue on our way."
Calculating the time, it was almost time for Deng Jiugong to arrive. Deng Zhong did not dare to delay for too long, lest Deng Jiugong did not join him and went to Xiqi alone.
