Chapter 495

Li Jing was originally the general soldier of Chentangguan, and his three sons served in the Zhou army, and they had a great connection with the interpretation of education, so the Zhou State's reward for him was naturally impossible to be low.

Under Yang Jian's suggestion, Li Jing was directly appointed as the deputy commander of Zhou Guo's soldiers and horses, and he was in charge of Zhou Guo's soldiers and horses mobilization together with King Wu Cheng. His position in the army was second only to Yang Jian and Huang Feihu.

It's not that Nan Gongshi, San Yisheng, Hong Yao and other veterans are not ignored, but they also know that they can't compare with Yang Jian, Huang Feihu, Li Jing and others in any aspect. Being able to be reused by Yang Jian, either as a leader in the army, or as an adviser to political affairs, is enough respect for their veterans.

When Li Jing entered the Zhou Dynasty, Zhou's luck became more and more prosperous, but Yang Jian had to keep one thing in mind.

The Jiang Mansion in Chaoge City was removed...

Due to the outbreak of the plague in Chaoge City, Yang Jian could not be distracted from thinking about this matter before, so he could only send Mu Zha to Chaoge City to inquire about the Jiang Mansion.

But Mu Zha didn't bring back any useful news. Ordinary people don't know what happened. Some monks hidden in Chaoge City spoke up, saying that a big hand fell from the sky and directly uprooted Jiang Mansion.

Eighty percent, it was the Jiejiao immortals who did it.

It is even very possible that the ones who kidnapped Jiang Shang's family were Lu Yue and others who spread the plague in Zhou Capital.

Yang Jian also blamed himself a bit in his heart. It should be that he had implicated Jiang Shang in this matter; fearing that Liu Sun and Manjusri would come to Jiang's mansion to find Yang Jian, Yang Jian didn't think too much at that time, and took Jiang Shang to walk around Chaoge City.

Jiang Shang was originally the one who took charge of the Conferred God, and his identity was complicated and sensitive. At that time, Yang Jian was only thinking about how to deal with the accusation of being afraid of leaving his grandson, but he didn't realize that after they left Chaoge City, Jiang Shang and Rou'er had no power to protect themselves in front of the Jiejiao Immortal...

It has been more than half a month since Jiang Shang disappeared, no one was alive, no dead body was seen, and he didn't know what happened.

After thinking about it, Yang Jian saw that Zhou Guo's country was gradually stabilized, and there were more Li Jings in Zhou Guo, so he moved to search for the idea of ​​​​rescuing Jiang Shang and Rou'er.

The other party should not have killed Jiang Shang's family, otherwise they would not have kidnapped the mansion directly that day, but smashed the mansion with a slap.

"Prime Minister, Commander Li has arrived."

"Invite him to come in," Yang Jian withdrew his mind, and sat on the grand master's chair, always with a faint majesty.

Li Jing entered the study room, bowed to Yang Jian, "Meet the prime minister."

"Commander Li doesn't need to be too polite. I'm going out for a while, and I have something to ask you."

"Yes," Li Jing was wearing a battle armor, with a calm demeanor and peaceful eyes, sitting on the side quietly waiting for Yang Jian to speak.

"Commander Li must have known that the city was planted with a plague by the Immortals. Although we dealt with it in time, hundreds of thousands of people died."

"This matter has not yet been concluded, perhaps it was not the work of Jiejiaoxian," Li Jing pondered a few times, "Prime Minister should not preconceive this way, if he guards against the wrong opponent, it may lead to disaster again."

Yang Jian smiled and nodded, "It's true that I didn't think carefully, and that's right, maybe it's not necessarily the murder of Jiejiaoxian. This is what I want to entrust. What countermeasures does Commander Li have?"

Li Jing pondered for a while, and then said: "There is no good strategy, we can only send troops to garrison the drinking water places in the city and the canals outside the city."

"The water supply in the city is the responsibility of the water department. Tens of thousands of people have been running around for this matter, either diverting water into canals, or carrying water trucks on their shoulders, and delivering it to thousands of households in the city," Yang Jian explained briefly. "You can find out the details when Commander Li goes to the water department to inquire. But the most fundamental thing is the underground water system. I put the elixir in the water from the autumn of the predecessor of Shennong, so there is no need to worry about it."

Li Jing nodded when he heard the words, obviously relieved. ——If he was to be responsible for monitoring the water supply of the entire capital...it would be a tiring and fruitless job.

"What I'm worried about is that the other party will attack the barracks," Yang Jian said softly, making Li Jing worry again.

The last time the victims were slaves and civilians, if the other party spread the plague into the Zhou army barracks without anyone noticing it, and lost hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers of the Zhou army, then their expedition to the east would be greatly delayed.

Li Jing said: "Zhou Guo has more than 4 million soldiers stationed in various places. The most elite soldiers are all gathered at the eastern border. There are many generals guarding them. It should be fine."

"It's not always safe," Yang Jian shook his head. "Nezha and Tianhua are too young. Although General Nangongshi is old, he has no cultivation. Commander Li, why don't you go over there and sit in town for a few days."

"The prime minister wants to take care of me, just ask for it," Li Jing said with a smile, apparently feeling that Yang Jian was being too polite.

But he didn't know that Yang Jian did it on purpose to make Li Jing clear and understand what he was doing in the past and what his focus was.

Prevent problems before they happen.

After talking with Li Jing for half an hour, Yang Jian sent Li Jing out of the house, and Li Jing flew directly to the east without saying hello to his family.

Then Yang Jian recruited the six friends of Meishan, and told them not to always stare at the plum blossom in the backyard, but to patrol the city every day, covering all parts of the Zhou capital with their spiritual consciousness, and immediately remind the mortals to respond if there is any abnormality.

In addition, Yang Jian also specially asked Ao Xinke a few words, the couple stayed together for a long time, and Yang Jian embarked on the road to rescue Jiang Shang.

Where was Jiang Shang captured?

According to Ao Xinke's calculation, Jiang Shang was in the southeast direction at this time, so Yang Jian set off from Zhou Capital City and searched directly to the southeast.

Southeast... Could it be that he was captured and taken to Jinao Island?

If this is the case, Yang Jian can only give up. There is a saint dojo, and he dare not be presumptuous.

Flying headlong to the South China Sea, Yang Jian didn't find anything suspicious, but found a few big monsters hiding in the big river in the south of Nanzhou, and killing them casually was considered a blessing to the whole place.

Yang Jian continued to fly towards the southeast in the South China Sea, passing dozens of islands along the way. Seeing that he was about to reach the 30,000-mile sea area near Jin'ao Island, Yang Jian could only stop, turned back, and searched again.

Still nothing.

The Great Desolate Wubu Continent is so big, if you want to search it inch by inch, it will take several months with Yang Jian's current footsteps. He can afford to delay, but the Battle of Conferred Gods and Zhou Kingdom can't afford to delay.

Just let Jiang Shang ignore it like this?

A little hesitation appeared in Yang Jian's heart, and when he was hesitant to turn back, a jade talisman flew from the north and shot straight at Yang Jian.

Raising his hand, he directly blocked the jade talisman, before Yang Jian could check it, the jade talisman was blown to pieces, and a ray of sound entered Yang Jian's ears.

"Jiang Shang was imprisoned in the south of the South China Sea. There was a difficult formation in the place where he was imprisoned. It was really a trap and a strategy to divert the tiger away from the mountain. If you show up, the Zhou army will surely suffer disaster."

Yang Jian couldn't help being stunned.

Who sent the letter to himself? Friend or foe?

Yang Jian thought for a while, turned around and continued to fly towards the northwest direction, with heavy thoughts in his heart.

Tune the tiger away from the mountain...

It seems that Yang Jian's speculation was correct. Lu Yue really wanted to kill Zhou Jun's barracks; kidnapping Jiang Shang was to transfer himself away from Xiqi and make it easier for them to do things?

Is this jade talisman so believable?

Yang Jian felt somewhat familiar with the voice that had just passed into his ears, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.

Yang Jian deliberately ignored the news given by the jade talisman, assuming that he followed his wife's advice, went to the South China Sea to search but found nothing, and went straight back to Zhou Capital.

Ao Xinke was a little surprised to return after going out for half a day.

"Husband, but you haven't found that Jiang Shang?"

"That's right," Yang Jian sighed, "I almost found Jin'ao Island, but I still couldn't find Jiang Shang, so I had to turn back here."

Ao Xinke frowned slightly, took out the tortoise shell copper coin, and was going to help Yang Jian make another guess.

Yang Jian waited for a while, and Ao Xinke looked up again after being busy for a while.

"As shown by the hexagram, the person my husband is looking for is in the southeast... There is no deviation from last time."

Yang Jian groaned a few times and said, "I'll go to the southeast again."

Ao Xinke suddenly said: "Husband, I made a robe for you, why don't you try it on."

"Madam Lao, don't worry."

"It's what a concubine should do," Ao Xinke chuckled, got up and snuggled into Yang Jian's arms, and went straight into the inner court.

Yang Jian undressed and took off his belt, as if he suddenly became interested, carried Ao Xinke onto the bed, and then waved his hands to wrap the attic with profound energy...

Ao Xinke blinked, although she was hugged by her husband, she didn't feel her husband's eagerness to move at all...

Half a day later, Yang Jian left the mansion again, flew all the way to the southeast, flew into the South China Sea again, and began to search randomly.

After another day and night without success, Yang Jian had no choice but to give up, and turned around to return to Xiqi.

call out--

Another jade talisman came from the southeast, and Yang Jian raised his hand to grab it; this time the jade talisman was an ordinary jade talisman for sending messages, and a line of small characters appeared on the jade talisman:

'Since then, 60,000 miles to the south, Lu Yue of Jin'ao Island waits respectfully for Zhenjun Erlang to fight. If Zhenjun doesn't come for half a day, no one in Jiang's mansion will survive. '

This jade talisman... seems to prove the 'goodwill' of the first jade talisman.

Yang Jian stood there for a long time, gently crushed the jade talisman, took a breath, cast the magic of transformation, turned into a skylark, and flew straight to the south.

Sixty thousand miles seems to be felt soon.

On the coast of the South China Sea, in a jungle, several figures were wrapped in black robes, entangled in spiritual consciousness, and conversing with each other.

"He used the method of change, so it must be the main body!"

"Hmph, this Yang Jian claims to be resourceful and resourceful, so he fell into your scheme."

"Let Qishan prepare to attack. As soon as Yang Jian enters the battle, let them spread poison on the tower! Then Yang Jian's wife is also a quasi-sage, but don't be afraid of her, someone will take action when the time comes."

"Good, the poor are one step ahead."

"Brother Shen Dao, please go ahead, I will wait until Yang Jian joins the battle before I can rest assured."

"So, Pindao just wait for a moment."

The few figures remained motionless, standing in the forest like dead trees.

In the south of the South China Sea, Yang Jian's spiritual consciousness spread all over the place, and he finally saw a lonely island in the South China Sea. There was another 'island' in the middle of the island. Wasn't it the Jiang Mansion that disappeared out of thin air in Chaoge City?

Sure enough, here.

Without hesitation, Yang Jian moved forward immediately; layers of thick fog filled the front, Yang Jian paused for a while, but still got into the fog.

At the same time, in the forest at the southern boundary of Nanzhou, a woman holding the formation board shouted:

"He's in the battle!"

"Quickly send an order to let Zhou Xin and the others take action, and the Zhou Kingdom will be destroyed today!" Several people in the forest immediately stood up, and the speaker raised his head, revealing the horrible scarred face, "Let's see how they can use their luck to teach!"
