Chapter 522: A Pot of Snake Soup, King Wu’s Personal Expedition
Outside King Tongyou's mansion, he looked back and felt unhappy.
How much trouble can come from this mountain of official documents?
The Lord of Mount Tai sincerely invited Gong Mengbi to go to the underworld to be a god, but Gong Mengbi refused because he was afraid of too much trouble.
He was unwilling to even serve the Lord of Mount Tai, let alone King Tongyou. Being a Yin spirit for the Lord of Mount Tai would at least mean the Lord would treat him well. What could he gain by being driven around by the Five Spirits without a moment's rest?
Is it verbal praise? Half-price incense? Or more attention and favor?
The Immortal Jin Ting sneered. If he could not destroy his arrogant personality, he would have wanted to spit on King Tongyou's head.
Dijia went to attack the earth god, while Jinting Daxian went straight to Shihu.
The Shihu Monster Ship was parked at the foot of the mountain above. The Immortal Jinting landed on the monster ship, and the manager of the ship came to pay his respects.
The servants on the demon ship naturally let the Great Immortal Jin Ting drive them. The Great Immortal Jin Ting activated his magic power and the demon ship sailed into the Stone Lake.
The Immortal Jin Ting ordered, "Send a pot of snake soup."
As soon as the steward gave the order, a ghost went into the water to catch the snake. By the time the demon ship arrived at the center of Shihu Lake, the snake soup was already bubbling on the table on the top floor of the demon ship.
The meat soup was bubbling in the white pottery pot, and the fragrant aroma accompanied by white smoke flew out of the pot and swirled over the demon ship.
Clear soup, white meat, and green onions, this is excellent craftsmanship. Originally, this demon ship was used to serve King Tonghui, so naturally even the chef is a rare master.
Jin Ting Daxian sniffed and for some reason thought of his sworn brother Gong Mengbi, the chef.
Just a thought made him feel even worse.
The Immortal Jin Ting struck the tiger talisman and summoned the general of the water department to come.
After receiving the summons, the general of the water department immediately went to the monster ship to wait for orders, but when he saw that it was the Immortal Jin Ting who held the military order, he immediately clenched his teeth.
Jin Ting Daxian extended his hand and said, "Please sit down."
The Water General was silent for a moment, then sat down opposite the Great Immortal Jin Ting.
The Immortal Jin Ting personally served a bowl of snake soup to the Water General and said, "General, King Tonghui has ordered me to lead the Water Gods to assist the Earth Gods in building a temple and establishing their roots. I have never led an army before, so I hope you will pay close attention."
The snake soup was placed in front of the Water General, which seemed to be a gesture of goodwill, and made the Water General's expression ease.
The general of the Water Department said, "Commander-in-Chief, how dare I disobey? I wonder how many troops are needed?"
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "King Tongji and King Wu's troops are currently attacking Xuanzhou. Once King Wu's troops have taken control of Xuanzhou, we will then subdue the local cultivators and subjugate fellow practitioners. General, you have experience in this area. I wonder how many troops we will need?"
The Water Department General pondered for a moment and said, "That depends on the local practitioners."
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "Among the local cultivators, only the Guangjiao Temple can be considered a match, but I can handle them."
The general of the water department said: "Then we can lead three thousand rampant gods, which will be enough to deal with it."
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "Then please, General, gather the troops and we will set out together with the Dibu Ranshen."
He pointed at the snake soup and said, "Thank you, General. I will definitely ask for your commendation when I return."
The Water Department General smiled, picked up the spoon, and was about to enjoy it when he suddenly stopped. He stared at the bowl of snake soup, raised his head to look at the Immortal Jin Ting, and said word by word, "Commander, what kind of soup is this?"
The Immortal Jin Ting summoned the steward and said, "The general asked what kind of soup this is."
The steward glanced at the Immortal Jin Ting and was frightened by his gaze. He shrank back and lowered his head, saying, "Commander, it's water snake soup."
The Water Department General slammed the spoon on the table, smashing it to pieces. He looked at the Immortal Jin Ting and asked, "What do you mean, Commander?"
Jin Ting Daxian looked puzzled, staring at him with golden pupils, and asked, "It's just a bowl of snake soup, why are you so angry, General?"
The water general's face flushed crimson, his eyes practically emitting sparks. Seeing the Immortal Jin Ting with one hand on the military talisman, his face twitched as he said, "I don't eat snakes. I'm sorry to have wasted your kindness, Commander."
Jin Ting Daxian showed a surprised expression, and then apologized: "I was unaware of this matter. I have violated your taboo. Please don't take it to heart."
He looked at the steward and said, "Take away the snake soup and replace it with chicken soup."
The Water General's face twitched as he said, "That's not necessary. I have to go and inspect the troops now, and I don't want to keep my colleagues from the Earth Department waiting for too long."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left without waiting for Jin Ting Daxian to speak.
Jin Ting Daxian said regretfully: "It's better not to eat it."
The steward, trembling in fear, was sandwiched between the two men. He looked at the Immortal Jin Ting and asked tremblingly, "Commander, do you need more chicken soup?"
Jin Ting Daxian waved his hand and said, "No need. If he doesn't want to eat, I will."
He slowly savored the snake soup, thinking, "It tastes good, why not eat it?"
I don’t know if it was the snake soup that calmed him down, or the water general that calmed him down, but eating the snake soup made him feel much happier.
But the general of the water department was so disgusted that he almost vomited his lungs. When he reached the bottom of the stone lake, he flew into a rage and pushed over the strange rocks at the bottom of the lake, saying, "Water snake! Water snake! How can you be so unreasonable! How dare you humiliate me like this!"
The Water General certainly doesn't dislike eating snakes. Although he is a snake that has transformed into a dragon, snakes have the habit of preying on their own kind.
He was not angry about the snake soup, but about the fact that the Great Immortal Jin Ting served the snake soup in front of him. At that moment, he felt that he was clearly a dragon, not a water snake, but like a water snake, he allowed the Great Immortal Jin Ting to eat him.
"Today's shame will be returned!"
The water general stirred up the undercurrent at the bottom of the lake. Fang Ping managed to calm himself down, called upon three thousand rampant gods, and gathered them to surge out of the water.
The Immortal Jin Ting had finished his snake soup, and Di Jia was already waiting on the demon ship with the Di Bu Chang Shen.
The Immortal Jin Ting descended, holding the military talisman in his hand, and commanded the other gods, saying, "March! Xuanzhou!"
The gods responded, and their energies gradually converged. The benefits of practicing the Five-Pass Method immediately became apparent, and fog covered the Stone Lake, blocking out the sunlight.
Led by the Great Immortal Jin Ting, they headed straight towards Xuanzhou.
The smell of incense obscured their aura, like passing smoke and clouds. With just a gust of cold wind, they left Gusu.
The Water Department General stood behind the Great Immortal Jin Ting, staring at his back, his eyes fell on his neck, and finally slowly retracted them, but he clenched his weapon so tightly in his hand that blood almost seeped out.
When ghosts and gods pass through the borderland, they are not bound by mortal bodies, but they are much faster than human soldiers.
When they arrived outside Xuanzhou City, they saw a huge army, but the siege had not yet begun.
The royal flag was flying in the air, and the King of Wu himself was sitting in the center of the army.
The energy of the soldiers disturbed the clouds in the sky, but could not stop King Wu Guangliang's destiny.
The King of Wu led the army in person.
