1191 Zhu Laosi and the King of Shanxi
We were shocked.
I thought I had heard it wrong, but Zhu Laosi actually said that he knew the whereabouts of the King of Shanxi? I looked at Monkey and Huang Jie in confusion, and when they saw that they were also looking at me in confusion, I realized that I had heard it wrong.
So, why did Zhu Laosi hide it from us?!
We looked at each other and returned to Zhu Laosi's bed.
Zhu Laosi looked at us with a guilty look and said, "Master Wu just told me that he had a few friends who wanted to find the King of Shanxi. I really didn't care. There were too many people who wanted to find the King of Shanxi. Can anyone find it if they wanted to find it? Later, you helped me again and again, and saved me from danger several times. Now I am even more helping me to win Datong. I am really embarrassed to hide it anymore!"
Several of us looked at him with a bright look.
Zhu Laosi gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, I am the King of Shanxi!"
We stood up and left immediately.
This Zhu Laosi is the same as the monkey
"Hey hey hey, I'm not kidding anymore, can I tell the truth?"
We just returned, and this time even the monkey couldn't help it: "Fourth Master, can we be more serious?" It is conceivable how annoying Zhu Laosi was.
Zhu Laosi sighed: "Actually, if someone asked me, I would still pretend not to know like before, but I am really embarrassed to hide it anymore. Do you know why Song Gejuan killed me?"
The monkey said strangely that I knew, didn’t Lao Ya hire him? Zhu Lao Si shook his head and said, “What is Lao Ya? Can he hire Song Gejuan? To be honest, Song Gejuan was sent by the King of Shanxi to kill me! After hearing this, we were even more surprised and asked why?
Mr. Zhu was embarrassed and hesitated for a while before continuing, "Do you know why the King of Shanxi retreated twenty years ago?"
The monkey said he had a little knowledge, but heard that he was forced by an organization called "Spark Fire". Zhu Laosi nodded and said yes, twenty years ago, when King Fang Qianli of Shanxi was still walking on the road, he unified the five cities in northern Shanxi, and his subordinates gathered masters named "Sixteen Sharp Knife". And I was one of them!
We were even more surprised. Unexpectedly, Zhu Laosi had also followed the King of Shanxi and had also been on the chair of "Sixteen Sharp Knife". We heard from Master Wu that this Sixteen Sharp Knife is indeed sixteen masters with strong skills. King Fang Qianli of Shanxi is very proud. Song Gejuan is one of the Sixteen Sharp Knifes. You can imagine how valuable the sixteen Sharp Knifes are.
We looked at Zhu Laosi carefully and made sure that he was not joking this time, so we heard him continue.
Twenty years ago, Zhu Laosi was only in his twenties, and he was very energetic. At a young age, he had become one of the sixteen sharp swords and one of the confidants around the King of Shanxi, which made Zhu Laosi extremely proud.
However, the King of Shanxi is younger, even younger than Zhu Laosi.
Among the sixteen sharp swords, the old one was nearly forty years old, such as Song Gejuan, and the youngest one was only in his twenties, such as Zhu Laosi. And the sixteen sharp swords, whether old or young, were all older than the king of Shanxi.
The reason why the King of Shanxi was able to be the King of Shanxi was that he could only follow so many masters and were willing to serve him was not because of his skills, but because of his personal charm, his character and courage, and extraordinary means.
Zhu Laosi is already a hero in the world, but when talking about the King of Shanxi, his eyes still burst into a passionate look, as if a brainless little fan mentioned his beloved idol. Zhu Laosi said that he had never conquered anyone in his life, and Fang Qianli was the only one.
The only one!
In Zhu Laosi's opinion, it is not an exaggeration to put all the beautiful words in the world on Fang Qianli. There are so many words that cannot describe Fang Qianli's one-tenth of them. Only when you see him with your own eyes will you be impressed by his charm.
Even Song Gejuan, a predecessor who has become famous for a long time, is willing to fall to Fang Qianli's disciple!
Zhu Laosi is the junior with the best skills and lowest qualifications among the sixteen sharp swords. The other party’s attitude is also extremely fanatical, and he can be called Fang Qianli’s brainless fan. He allows others to talk about his parents, nor does he allow others to say a word about Fang Qianli.
During those years, Fang Qianli fought with sixteen sharp swords, and captured five cities in northwestern Shanxi at an extremely fast speed, and called himself the King of Shanxi. Everyone in the entire Three Jin Dynasty was convinced!
——When talking about this, the monkey wanted to interrupt and said he was dissatisfied, but he still held it back.
Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. Just when Fang Qianli and Shiliujian were full of ambitions and eager to continue their attack on the southwestern part of Shanxi, an organization called "Spark Fire" completely disrupted their plans. Shiliujian was really terrible. Not only did they disrupt and disperse their power in the northern cities in a short period of time, even the strongest masters among the Sixteen Spark Fire could not compete with them.
There are not many left of the sixteen sharp swords.
It was a tragic day. The down-and-out King of Shanxi took the remaining troops to hide in Tibet, including Zhu Laosi. In the end, the King of Shanxi still surrendered the White Banner and did not know what negotiations he had made with Xinghuo, and announced that he would wash his hands and retreat to the world.
At the same time, he also told the remaining subordinates, if you want to follow me, if you want to follow me, please leave if you don’t want to follow me. However, those who leave should promise me two things. First, you can’t continue to get along, and second, you must not join Spark.
Zhu Laosi chose to leave.
Because at that time, he was already a little disappointed with the King of Shanxi. During those months, he watched helplessly as he was once full of energy and perfection, pointing at the King of Shanxi in the entire Shanxi, struck by the spark, running around and completely losing his former aura.
This is not the life Zhu Laosi wants.
But Zhu Laosi also understood that if even the King of Shanxi could not compete with Xinghuo, he naturally would not have the ability. After Zhu Laosi returned to Datong, he initially followed the King of Shanxi's instructions and did not interfere with the Tao anymore, but started a small business in detail.
But after a long time, he couldn't help it. As we all know, no matter in an era, it would be harder to do a small business peacefully without the protection of some forces.
Moreover, poverty made Zhu Laosi very difficult and even his family could not afford to support him.
At that time, Zhu Laosi had been away from the King of Shanxi for several years, and there had been no news about the King of Shanxi for a long time.
So he decided to take the risk, regardless of the advice of the King of Shanxi, and once again embarked on the road of chaos. After all, he was the King of Shanxi, one of the sixteen sharp swords, and Datong was in an extremely chaotic state. It was too easy for Zhu Laosi to make a fortune.
So in a very short time, Zhu Laosi pulled up his own force and successfully unified the underground world of Yungang District in Datong. It was not called Yungang District at that time, but Yungang District was divided later. Just when Zhu Laosi was ambitious and was about to take over Datong in one go and retake the path of King Shanxi, he unexpectedly received a souvenir from the King of Shanxi.
It was a snowy night, and heavy snow covered the entire city. Zhu Laosi was drinking with several brothers at home. A white carrier pigeon suddenly flew into the yard of Zhu Laosi's family. Zhu Laosi opened the letter and found that it was a letter written by the King of Shanxi.
No one is more familiar with Fang Qianli's handwriting than Zhu Laosi.
There is nothing written on it, only one address is attached.
Immediately, Zhu Laosi was so scared that he was sweating all over, and he stopped drinking. He hurriedly put on his clothes and drove to the address where the King of Shanxi was. Liu Zongyuan called Shanxi "the mountains and rivers on the outside", which means that there were many hills and ravines in Shanxi, and the transportation was not very developed at that time, and the King of Shanxi was extremely remote.
The mountains were covered with heavy snow, and the journey was long, but Zhu Laosi still did not delay a single step. Before coming the next morning, he finally arrived at the location of the King of Shanxi.
At that time, before Fang Qianli woke up, Zhu Laosi knelt in front of Fang Qianli's door and waited.
The heavy snow was still falling down, and soon it poured Zhu Laosi into a snowman, but Zhu Laosi still didn't dare to move. It was not until two hours later that someone summoned Zhu Laosi in.
Fang Qianli had woken up and sat by the bed and fiddled with a basin of charcoal fire with a fire fork.
The charcoal fire is burning strongly, and the house is warm.
Zhu Laosi fell to the ground with his head on the ground. After a long time, Fang Qianli said, "Zhu Laosi, have you forgotten what you promised me back then?"
Zhu Laosi didn't dare to answer, but still lay on the ground, his body trembling as if it was sifting.
Fang Qianli sighed and said, "I know you are also trying to support your family. If you don't mess around, which path will you take? But do you think I don't want you to develop if I don't let you go on this path?
You are wrong, I am trying to live for you. At this point, I don’t want to say anything more. Just like this, you have made a lot of money now, don’t continue, just wash yourself up and go ashore as soon as possible."
After a pause, Fang Qianli continued, "I'm for your own good."
"Yes." Zhu Laosi did not dare to resist.
"If there is another time, I will take your life." This is the last sentence Fang Qianli said to Zhu Laosi.
After returning, Zhu Laosi obeyed Fang Qianli's orders and dismissed most of his brothers, leaving only some confidants who depend on life and death, then washed up and started a serious business. Many years passed in a flash.
Over the years, there has been no news about the King of Shanxi.
But Zhu Laosi knew that the King of Shanxi had been there and had never left. Moreover, the King of Shanxi knew his every move.
But not long ago, in the days when we came to Datong, Xiao Wu almost killed Zhu Laosi - in fact, he had already killed him. If it weren't for Long Qingyu, the grass on Zhu Laosi's grave had grown? Then the force of Laozi finally made Zhu Laosi furious.
