The headquarters of the Zhenbei Army is just an inconspicuous courtyard house.
There are two trees in the courtyard, one is a willow tree and the other is also a willow tree.
Emperor Shitian was sitting under the willow tree in the east. On the stone table in front of him was a simple wine pot.
He took a sip of wine and asked, "What do you think?"
Li Xiang said calmly: "He's just a fake immortal. If you want to kill him, kill him."
His voice was very calm, and his tone had almost no fluctuations.
It seems that the Yuan Xuzi who was killed was not one of the thirty-six immortals, but an unknown person.
Emperor Shitian obviously didn't expect this answer. He was stunned for a moment and suddenly laughed, "Sit down."
Li Xiang sat down but did not pick up the wine glass.
Emperor Shitian asked: "You don't like my wine?"
Li Xiang shook his head, "Treating people with residual wine is not the way to treat guests."
"You are my subordinate, and you actually treat yourself as a guest."
Emperor Shitian was a little stunned, and suddenly he remembered that this boy's ancestor was Yin Tianzi. If he could trace back to the era when humans and gods coexisted, his ancestral spirit as Emperor Zhenwu would really be that much different.
That’s all.
Emperor Shitian moved the half-cup of remaining wine to the side, picked up the wine pot, tilted the spout, and the clear wine flowed out of the spout, forming a small water column.
A jade cup appeared out of thin air and caught the drink.
Li Xiang picked up the jade cup and drank it in one gulp. He choked on the spicy taste. He shook his head in disappointment, "I thought it was some good wine."
"In today's world, it's good to have wine, but there's not so much wine." Emperor Shitian said helplessly.
Li Xiang shook his head, "This wine does not suit your identity."
"What you did is not consistent with your identity."
Emperor Shitian finished his glass of wine and poured himself another glass, "Killing Yuanxuzi and destroying Qingxu Palace, have you ever thought about how much commotion it will cause?"
Li Xiang said: "The majesty of the underworld cannot be violated. If Yuan Xuzi were the God of War, I would temporarily tolerate it, but he is just a fourth-level pseudo-immortal."
“If you don’t remove Yuanxuzi, countless kidney-deficiency and Yangxuzi will appear.”
As if feeling murderous intent, the cicadas chirping on the willow trees suddenly stopped.
Emperor Shitian frowned, "Are you trying to scare the monkeys?"
There was no wind at this time, but the wine in the glass in front of him was causing ripples.
Li Xiang was silent for a moment and said: "These pseudo-immortals do not go to the front line or serve the country. They only huddle in the rear and act arrogantly. What's the use of keeping them?"
"You don't care, I'll give it a beating, why not?"
Di Shitian's eyes narrowed slightly. After just a few days, the boy in front of him seemed to have changed.
No longer reserved.
Show your sharpness.
His expression was solemn: "You are a newcomer, but you dare to beat the Thirty-Six Immortals. Do you know how deep the water is here?"
"There are more than a hundred fourth-level ancestors, but there are only thirty-six immortals. Behind each quota, there are rights and interests that you can't imagine."
"The Temple of War, the Pavilion Elders' Association, the Military Department, all major families..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Xiang suddenly smiled, and there was an undisguised sense of ridicule in his smile.
Emperor Shitian was stunned, and his voice became colder, "Why are you laughing?"
As the God of War, he has been in the north for decades, and no one has ever dared to offend him like this.
Li Xiang stopped smiling and said, "The sky is about to fall. You don't fight hard to defeat the enemy, but you are still fighting for power. Isn't it ridiculous?"
Emperor Shitian understood the other party's intentions, and most of his dissatisfaction dissipated. He shook his head and said, "You are still too young."
Li Xiang mocked: "They're just a bunch of timid rats who dare not speak out."
Emperor Shitian's pupils shrank.
A terrifying aura spread out, and then the clouds in the sky drooped, almost within reach.
Dark clouds were rolling over the city, and there were wind and thunder hiding among them.
Terrifying pressure descended.
The millions of garrison troops in Xuanwu City all raised their heads and looked at this strange phenomenon in heaven and earth in horror.
Farther north, outside the sixth line of defense, millions of monster legions looked like they were facing a formidable enemy.
Li Xiang turned around and walked out of the small courtyard.
Parted unhappy.
"That's crazy!"
Emperor Shitian glared angrily at Li Xiang and left. He waved his hand fiercely and swept the three cups on the table to the ground.
The jade cup shattered.
The remaining wine spilled.
A will quietly retreated.
After a while.
"Come out."
The anger on Emperor Shitian's face disappeared instantly, he picked up the wine bottle and poured himself wine leisurely.
Qingqiu walked out of the inner room and looked at the drinks on the ground with a solemn expression, "That gentleman is a little unreasonable."
Emperor Shitian nodded, "Lao Guo is really not good at this. He even used this little trick here and wasted so much wine on me."
Qingqiu was stunned, wondering if your focus, Marshal, was wrong, but he could only keep such complaints in his heart and would never dare to say them out. He hesitated for a moment and asked: "What are we going to do next?"
?”
Emperor Shitian played with the jade cup and said, "If this brat wants to go to the front, let him go. Chicheng is fine."
"If the soul of the demon clan can really be refined by that soul refining pond and speed up the reconstruction of the underworld, it can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone."
"On our side, we can also give Lao Guo and Ge Laohui an explanation."
Qingqiu said worriedly: "Without the identity of the Zhenbei Army, I'm afraid some people will make small moves."
Di Shitian said calmly, "Don't worry, that kid is not as weak as you think."
Seeing the confused look on the other party's face, he patiently explained, "The underworld is recovering and the underworld is being rebuilt. The strength of him and the Yin gods under him will only get stronger and stronger."
"Three days ago, the strength of that Yama was probably only fourth level and fifth level."
"But today, he can use the Book of Life and Death to take Yuan Xuzi's life."
"Maybe after a while, Yama will be able to write your name in the Book of Life and Death and take away your soul."
The corners of Qingqiu's mouth twitched.
Emperor Shitian stared at the wine in the glass, remained silent for a long time, and then slowly said: "Nine Netherworlds... Who knows what else that kid will pour out."
Qingqiu was silent for a moment and suddenly said: "Sir, when you say that, why do I feel that that boy was not acting just now?"
Emperor Shaktian's hand holding the wine glass paused.
…
The announcement of Li Xiang's dismissal from the military post was issued from the commander-in-chief's office and spread throughout the Zhenbei Army.
The whole army was in an uproar.
At the same time, another transfer order was issued from the Council of Elders: Li Xiang was appointed Lord of Chicheng City.
Kyoto City, Sixth Military Hospital.
"Dip, beep, beep..."
In that void and dead silence, voices gradually sounded.
Zhao Tingting wanted to open her eyes, but found that her eyelids were as heavy as lead.
She tried once and couldn't open it.
So she rested for a while and tried to open her eyes again, but a feeling of weakness made her give up this approach.
It felt like a nightmare, like a ghost in bed. She knew she was dreaming, but she couldn't wake up.
In my ears, the beeping sound became clearer and louder.
After a while, Zhao Tingting tried for the third time.
This time, she focused all her attention on her eyes, and finally, a glimmer of light appeared in the darkness in front of her.
Gradually, the light became brighter and brighter.
Her vision gradually became clearer, and she contracted her pupils to see clearly what was in front of her.
It was a wall, a white wall.
When her perception returned to her body, Zhao Tingting realized that she was lying down, so the wall in her eyes should be the ceiling.
The beeping sound is on the right.
Zhao Tingting turned her eyes hard and found that it was an electrocardiogram monitor.
Rapid footsteps came from outside, and then, with a bang, the door was opened. A nurse rushed over, took a look at the ECG monitor, then used a micro flashlight, shined it on Zhao Tingting's pupils, and pressed the head of the bed violently.
The beeper roared in an excited and trembling voice:
"Bed 139 is awake, please come quickly, the patient in bed 139 is alive!"
