Honghuang: My understanding is beyond belief. I am the first immortal of Jiejiao.

Chapter 217: Unwilling to fail, the east is not bright and the west is bright, Jizhou Su Hu starts the war
But which Medicine Buddha is no match for the Golden Cicada in the North Sea? Feeling ashamed and angry, he dragged his seriously injured body straight to Jizhou.

Jizhou Marquis Su Hu is the reincarnation of Yang Tianyou. He has awakened his memory and recognized his master, Medicine Buddha. Moreover, he sent Su Daji to Chaoge and presented her to Emperor Xin.

In order to gain more luck for the Western Religion during the Conferred Gods Tribulation, Medicine Buddha temporarily stopped his troops in Beihai and went to Jizhou to support his disciple Su Hu (Yang Tianyou).

When passing by the Qishen Mountain, he suddenly saw a dark cloud rising from the mountain, blocking the Medicine Buddha.

The dark clouds hovered for a long time, then dispersed, revealing a man.

The man who came was wearing a gray and white scarf with two flying ribbons behind his head. He was wearing a black and white Yin-Yang Tai Chi robe, with a square face and a wide mouth, and a nose that seemed to be breathing fire. He must be a person who practiced in seclusion in the mountains and lived for a thousand years.

When the visitor saw Medicine Buddha, he roared like thunder.

"Who are you? How dare you spy on my sacred mountain? Haven't you heard that those who come without permission are thieves?"

When Medicine Buddha first heard the roar, he was startled. He was not afraid, after all, the injured Quasi-Saint was still a Quasi-Saint! In the prehistoric world, the number of strong men with cultivation above Quasi-Saint could be counted on one hand.

What's more, when Medicine Buddha saw that the person blocking his way was a Xuanxian, he was even less panicked.

Seeing that this man was quite courageous, he decided to take him in as his disciple, so that he could fight for the Western Church in the future.

Having made up his mind, Medicine Buddha stood still on the cloud and laughed.
"Who are you? Why are you blocking me from entering Jizhou? I am just passing by this mountain, not spying."

"I hope that since we are both from the same Taoist lineage, you will open a path for me to pass through."

Whoever heard the words of Medicine Buddha also sneered.

"Hmph, I am Zheng Lun, and I have lived in this sacred mountain for a long time. How dare you pass through my sacred mountain?"

Medicine Buddha smiled and said, "The world is so big that there is no mountain that I, Medicine Buddha, cannot cross, and no sea that I cannot cross. If you don't show some skills, you really think you are a big shot."

After that, Medicine Buddha said nothing more. He took out a magic weapon that he had made from his bosom.

This magic weapon, only the size of a bowl, is a top-grade spiritual artifact, the golden bowl. It was made by Medicine Buddha taking innate gold and applying the Lingshan spell to it, refining it for 49 days.

Holding this golden bowl, one can subdue demons and monsters. This is a rare and magical thing. Medicine Buddha offered the golden bowl just to show off!

Otherwise, Zheng Lun, a mere immortal, would be beaten to death with just one palm.

When Zheng Lun saw the golden bowl flying towards him, he immediately took the demon-subduing pestle and rushed towards it head-on.

Unexpectedly, the golden bowl grew in the wind. With a whoosh, Zheng Lun was thrown upside down into the golden bowl.

Zheng Lun raised the demon-subduing pestle in his hand and smashed it towards the inner wall of the golden bowl, but he failed to smash the quasi-saint magic weapon into pieces and instead exhausted himself.

At this time, Zheng Lun realized that he had met a master. If he didn't know the situation, he would be refined in the golden bowl.

Zheng Lun stopped struggling and begged Medicine Buddha desperately in the golden bowl.

"Master, please stop and forgive me this time. I was shortsighted and failed to recognize you in person after years of hard training. I know I was wrong and will never again show my true colors in front of you."

When Medicine Buddha heard Zheng Lun surrender to him in the golden bowl, he also spoke:
"You blocked my way for no reason, so I should have scattered your soul. However, God is merciful, so it won't be difficult to spare you."

"But you have to be my disciple. Go to Jizhou Su Hu and become a general. In the future, you will enjoy endless wealth and glory, and have countless descendants for generations. Isn't that wonderful!"

At this point, life and death all depended on the Medicine Buddha's thoughts. Zheng Lun dared not say a word. "Disciple is willing to follow the teacher to Jizhou. I hope the master will have mercy on me and give me freedom."

The Medicine Buddha then took back the golden bowl and released Zheng Lun. Zheng Lun bowed according to the etiquette and then left his cave and followed the Medicine Buddha to Jizhou.

This Zheng Lun was also a famous person in the Conferred God List. Together with another extraordinary person Chen Shiqi, they were called the "Heng Ha" two gods, and they were very powerful.

……

In Jizhou, Su Hu sat in the Hou Mansion and summoned all the generals to discuss important matters.

"Commanders, today, the world is in chaos, with wars raging everywhere to attack the wicked Emperor Xin, and the military power of Xiqi is the strongest. If Jizhou does not seize the opportunity, recruit talented people, and recruit strong soldiers, I am afraid that we will fall behind in the future!"

"My dear teacher has gone to Beihai and has not returned yet. I wonder if the generals have any good ideas? Can we help Jizhou gain the upper hand in this opportunity of changing dynasties?"

As soon as Su Hu finished speaking, his eldest son Su Quanzhong stood up, clasped his fists towards Su Hu, and said:
"Haha, there is a vassal state in front of Jizhou. We should take advantage of the situation to destroy it and seize its territory for military use. If we capture its soldiers and civilians, we will have the capital to dominate the world."

Su Hu was stunned for a moment, then he understood. Su Quanzhong's words were nothing more than referring to the Northern Marquis Chong Houhu.

This person is dedicated to oppressing the people. He has taken a lot of money from the people for Emperor Xin. He is really a treacherous prince. It is just right that he can be used as a sacrifice to establish power and make it known to the world.

Su Hu clapped his hands, "Good"

Just at this moment, Medicine Buddha, along with his disciple Zheng Lun, landed in Hou Mansion from mid-air.

Su Hu hurried forward and welcomed Medicine Buddha to sit down. Naturally, Medicine Buddha was not polite and sat down on the hall.

"Zheng Lun, this is my eldest disciple Su Hu, your senior brother. Why don't you come forward and greet him?"

Zheng Lun took a big step forward, clasped his fists and said, "Greetings, Senior Brother."

After Su Hu and Zheng Lun finished their greetings, Medicine Buddha spoke again.

"I have already discussed with Na Linzhu's eldest disciple Jin Chan that Beihai and Dashang will temporarily cease hostilities. However, Jizhou, it is indeed time to take action."

"Fei Zhong and You Hun have gone to attack Xiqi again, and there is no help from Jizhou in the court. Of course, Chaoge has no more troops to send. It is the best choice for Jizhou to take Chonghouhu's land."

At that moment, Jizhou decided to send troops to Chongcheng to fight against Chonghouhu, the Marquis of Beibo.

Chongcheng, even though Chonghouhu is not a good person. But, he is one of the four great princes, so how can his strength be underestimated? What's more, Chonghouhu has a brother who practices Taoism, Chongheihu.

Which Taoist technique is also quite magical. In the land of the north, there is really no prince who dares to touch the tiger's whiskers.

However, things happened to be so ingenious. When Chongcheng was completely unprepared, the Jizhou army arrived outside Chongcheng and set up camp.

"Report, Jizhou Marquis Su Hu's troops are camping outside the city."

Scouts had already reported to the Chongcheng Marquis's residence. Chonghouhu was awakened from his dream and panicked.

He immediately sent out orders, beat drums to gather his generals, and discuss countermeasures.
