Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 20: Accounts
"Roar!"
The moment the elephant head fell, there was a huge cheer from the top of the city.
Morale reached its limit at this moment, and all the demons who followed the three demon kings fled one after another.
Seeing this situation, the two demon kings with white eyebrows and ghost faces knew that they would not get much benefit from this, so they could only sigh and ordered to retreat.
Before leaving, the white-browed lemur glanced at Tang Jie and said cheerfully: "Tang Jie, right? You killed three of my demon kings one after another. You are cruel, let's wait and see."
As he said that, he and the ghost-faced demon king hurriedly retreated.
This ended a **** battle.
A few figures flew down from the top of the city. The leader was Gu Pinzhang, the guard of Dongjin Gate. Behind him were three other people, a middle-aged Confucian scholar in a long shirt, holding a large pen in his hand. A man in blue shirt, with a sword as broad as a door panel on his back, and a general holding a war spear. These three people were the same three people who tried to rescue Tang Jie before, but were intercepted by the White Eyebrow King and the Ghost Faced King.
At this moment, Gu Pinzhang flew to Tang Jie's side and raised his hand to Tang Jie: "Gu Pinzhang has met Zhenren Tang. In today's battle, Zhenren Tang fought three kings and killed two monsters with his own hands, and made great achievements for our Fengshan country. It’s really gratifying!”
"Old General, you're welcome." Tang Jie returned the greeting.
At the same time, the other three people also paid tribute to Tang Jie. After seeing Tang Jie's methods, even the most proud people did not dare to look down on Tang Jie. Gu Pinzhang introduced Tang Jie that these three people were Sun Shuming, Liu Yunshan and Zhang Tu.
Sun Shuming, a person Tang Jie had heard of, was a soul-transforming cultivator and a great calligrapher of the Fengshan Kingdom. He served as an official in Fengshan and became the Minister of Household Affairs. Later, due to the emergency in Dongjin, he was transferred here to serve as the Commander-in-Chief of the Army. . During the battle just now, he was the one who used a large pen to draw ink in the air. The words were drawn with golden hooks and iron strokes. They were very sharp and had a bit of the charm of Zhang Shuhan.
Liu Yunshan is the young sect leader of Tianjian Sect, the largest sect in Fengshan Kingdom, and the son of sect leader Liu Zongchang. However, although he is said to be a young sect leader, he has actually been practicing for more than four hundred years, but he still looks young and looks like he is only in his early thirties.
Zhang Tu is known as an iron horse warrior. This man was born as a mortal warrior, and he has fought hard all the way to achieve what he is today. He is currently the most powerful general in Dongjinguan. In terms of strength, he may not be stronger than Sun Shuming and Liu Yunshan, but in terms of killing more enemies, no one can match him. This man was not named Zhang Tu originally, but later he swore to destroy demons and took his name from Tu.
At this moment, seeing each other, Gu Pinzhang laughed and said: "Come on, come on, today's great victory over the monster bandits, Master Tang should be the first to take the lead. We are holding a banquet to celebrate, and I also invite Master Tang to enter the city with me."
Tang Jie said with a smile: "There is no need to hold a banquet. I would like to ask General Gu to reconcile this account with me."
"What account?" Gu Pinzhang was stunned.
Tang Jie had already taken out a piece of paper, handed it to Gu Pinzhang and said: "This is the agreement between me and the government. It has the seal of the king on it. I would like to ask the old general to follow this and pay what is due." Give it to me."
Gu Pinzhang took it in astonishment. After just a few glances, his expression changed drastically and he read: "The lower grade of Kaizhi is one thousand five hundred spiritual coins, the middle grade is two thousand and five, and the top grade is five thousand. In the early stage of transformation, it is fifteen thousand. Thousand spirit coins, 25,000 for the middle grade, 50,000 for the top grade!"
"It's discounted." Tang Jie responded.
He waved his hand in the air, and Yiyi came down with a large number of monsters killed by Tang Jie, and fell in front of everyone and said: "In the previous battle, more than a thousand monsters were killed. Among them, there are well-documented ones. There are 312 low-grade Kaizhi, 238 medium-grade, and 156 high-grade ones. There are also twelve low-grade incarnations, one middle-grade one, two high-grade demon kings, and three sky-shattering beasts. Only. There were also Zhoutian Xingchen Ten Thousand Treasures Formation that killed more than a thousand monsters, but too many were killed at one time and it is difficult to verify in detail."
Tang Jie interfaced: "We will suffer a little loss, so we will calculate it all as low-grade Kaizhi, and the quantity is 800. We don't have an exact price for the Zhentian Beast, so let's calculate it as low-grade Transformation."
Tang Jie looked very kind to me.
Yiyi nodded, made a quick calculation, and finally said: "The total is 3,393,000 spiritual coins."
This number made Gu Pinzhang and others dizzy.
Tang Jie also felt that there was too much and said: "Erase the odd number."
Yiyi nodded: "Well, then three million."
Damn it, I’m talking about erasing three thousand cents!
There was obvious dissatisfaction on Gu Pinzhang's face. He frowned and said, "You mean, this general has to pay three million for everything you have done before?"
"The demon corpses also belong to me." Perhaps because he saw the unkind look on Old General Gu's face, Tang Jie made some concessions: "Of course, the ones killed by the Wanbao Formation are a bit unclear, so I don't have to." This part."
General Gu replied calmly: "Don't you think, three million is too much? We at Dongjin Pass do judge military merit by the number of enemies killed, but no one has ever received such a reward. To be honest, Even if the whole battle is over and I reward the whole army with pickaxes, I can't spend so much money. Does Mr. Tang think I'm easy to bully?"
Tang Jie calmly replied: "Isn't it too much to say that, General Gu? This is the condition I agreed with your country, and there is nothing excessive. You think it is too much, not because I ask a high price, but because I killed more."
Gu Pinzhang's eyes suddenly shrank.
Yes, Tang Jie was right. He got more, not because he asked for a high price, but because he killed more.
In this battle, the three demon kings suffered heavy losses. It can be said that the strength of the three demon cities was severely damaged.
In previous battles, it was considered good to consume one-tenth of the opponent's power.
Otherwise the price paid is too high, what else would the demon clan call hunting?
So in the past we just repelled the enemy's attack, but this time it was a true victory.
Behind this amazing victory was Tang Jie's sky-high reward.
Even Gu Pinzhang felt heartbroken by the reward of up to three million spiritual coins.
It's not that he can't afford it. It's normal to spend millions every time a cultivating war like this is fought. Countless resources need to be invested just to activate the guardian formation. Fortunately, Fengshan has the support of the entire country, but he has never given a one-time reward of three million to an individual.
In every battle, even soul-transforming cultivators usually receive a reward of two to three hundred thousand at most.
The demon clan is not a fool. No one will stay there and let you kill them. Strong cultivators will face powerful opponents, and no one can harvest wealth unscrupulously.
Who would have thought that he would encounter a pervert like Tang Jie, who could harvest millions of wealth with just one piece of the Ten Thousand Treasures Formation Diagram. Of course, if calculated based on the capital invested, it is not unusual to achieve such an achievement based on the cost of the Wanbao Formation. This is like investing billions of dollars, and you will still generate this little interest no matter what you do. It's a pity that the old general doesn't understand financial concepts, so it probably won't make sense to tell him this.
In any case, three million remuneration is a huge number even for Gu Pinzhang. If this money is used for city defense, it can provide more energy for the guard formation, provide more arrows for soldiers, and obtain more resources for cultivators. In short, it can be used for too many purposes. But when it comes to a person...can you digest so much?
Gu Pinzhang didn't know how to deviate from the scriptures. For him, even if all the money was used for cultivating elixirs, he might not be able to finish it in one or two years.
At this moment, he looked at Tang Jie for a long time, and then said seriously: "Tang Zhenren, the demon clan's continuous offensive is all thanks to the iron wall of Dongjin Pass, which prevents the enemy from crossing the thunder pool. At this time of national crisis, the rise and fall of the human race. , everyone should step forward, how can we care about petty profits? If Dongjin does not exist, the future of mankind will inevitably be worrying, and there will be no more perfect eggs when the nest is overturned. What is the use of tens of millions of wealth?"
The words he spoke were so righteous, so sincere, and so resonant that even Tang Jie couldn't help but admire the old general. Who says all soldiers are reckless? Look at this old general, he is still very smooth-talking. He came up with a set of rhetoric about national justice, and without blushing and out of breath, he wanted to pass up the three million bill.
Tang Jie sighed and said: "It is precisely because of this that I have repeatedly offered discounts. If you really count it out, the enemies I killed this time could be worth seven to eight million."
Gu Pinzhang's eyes almost bulged out.
Tang Jie said again: "Besides, I will also use the money to replace cultivation resources. Only when a cultivator becomes stronger can he make more contributions."
"You can also grab more money." A voice said coldly, but it was Liu Yunshan of the Tianjian Sect.
After hearing this, Tang Jie chuckled and did not get angry with them: "If you guys think that I have collected too much, then you will not need me in the future. But it is better to make it clear this time. In fact, the old general also It's not a loss. Speaking of which, I didn't receive any benefit from the government in Baizhan City. After the fall of Baizhan City, although Dongjin suffered for several days, since then, the south of Dongjin has also been under pressure. Big reduction, am I right?"
Baizhan City is the demon city closest to the border. The massacre of this city has brought great benefits and conveniences to Fengshan. Not to mention anything else, the expansion of the actual control area and the reduction of the pressure on the demon clan are worthy of celebration, especially when Fengshan has not yet released a One soldier.
Hearing what Tang Jie said, the old general looked at Tang Jie and finally said loudly: "Give it to him!"
The figure turned around and flew towards the city, and the three people followed closely.
When he landed on the city wall, Gu Pinzhang suddenly turned around and said: "Tang Jie, from now on defend the city, if I don't let you take action, don't take action. Otherwise, don't blame me for not admitting my guilt."
Tang Jie Gong cupped his hands and replied: "I will obey the old general's decree!"
Gu Pinzhang turned around and left. ~IndoMTL.com~ Originally, Tang Jie had planned to invite him to the banquet after defeating the enemy, but now, everyone has lost interest in the banquet.
Tang Jie didn't care at all.
Unlike others, his biggest problem is that he is not from Fengshan, and he has no idea of protecting his family and country. On the contrary, he thinks about how to get out of here all the time. As far as he is concerned, his relationship with Fengshan Kingdom is a cooperative relationship. If Fengshan Kingdom needs his force, it must pay a sufficient price.
Here, there is no right or wrong. Tang Jie was not wrong, and Gu Pinzhang was not wrong either, but everyone only considered the problem from their own position.
What ultimately determines everything is still strength.
Looking at the sky above, as the monsters dispersed, the dark clouds had dissipated and light appeared.
A smile appeared on Tang Jie's face and he flew towards the city. R527
