Chapter Ninety-Nine: Xu Fu's Past
"Hmph, young man, you're still too tender......" Xu Fu didn't seem to care at all about Qin Zhongyu's complaints, but said proudly, "Abuse like that kind of leather whip and candle has no technical content at all, abuse people, only abuse is the supreme and the most inextricable...... For example, in the past two thousand years of alchemy life, emptiness, loneliness, and longing for His Majesty have been constantly spurring me on and becoming the driving force for me to persevere!"
"Well, it really can't take two thousand years to refine the elixir without changing the morph...... Qin Zhongyu thought, "No wonder the fake Xu Fu before was immediately discovered by Ying Zheng...... After all, no matter how similar that person is, it is impossible to imitate this super shaky temperament!"
Qin Zhongyu remembered that the fake Xu Fu before just pretended to be blind, this kind of physical abuse and the real Xu Fu's spiritual abuse are indeed fundamentally different, in comparison, it is indeed the realm of the real Xu Fu is higher. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Strange, why do I agree with Xu Fu's point of view when I think of this?" Qin Zhongyu thought a little strangely.
However, probably Ying Zheng was not interested in listening to Xu Fu's tirade, and Ying Zheng also interrupted Xu Fu's words impatiently.
"Xu Fu, don't talk about your strange theory here...... Although I am very grateful for your dedication over the years...... But I still hope that you don't influence Zhong Yu with your strange theories, and I don't want Zhong Yu to become as ...... as you."
"Understood, Your Majesty...... But it's clear that this young man has a lot of potential...... It's a pity......" Xu Fu looked at Qin Zhongyu and smiled a little strangely.
"I didn't have the potential to shake M!" and Qin Zhongyu hurriedly retorted.
"Alright...... Xu Fu, don't blame me for being rude if you do this again!" Ying Zheng also hurriedly stopped Xu Fu from continuing to tease Qin Zhongyu.
"Your Majesty, are you still so ruthless to me...... Oops, the minister accidentally got excited again!"
"Alas......" In this regard, Ying Zheng could only sigh helplessly, and then drew the sword in his hand, "Xu Fu, ......"
"Wait, Your Majesty, if you have something to say, the minister doesn't want to die here yet!" Xu Fu hurriedly knelt down and said.
"It's good to understand, then tell me quickly, when will the next elixir be refined?"
"Your Majesty, it's going to be soon, and it will be done next month!" Xu Fu finally said seriously, "Your Majesty can live here temporarily for a month, although it is a little simpler than your palace in Xianyang back then, but it is not bad......
"Very good!" Hearing that it only took a month for the second elixir to be completed, Ying Zheng was also quite happy.
……
In order to welcome Ying Zheng, Xu Fu prepared a rich dinner and Kyoto local sake, Qin Zhongyu and Ying Zheng also had a delicious meal.
There were also dances performed during the banquet, but although this dance was beautiful, in Qin Zhongyu's opinion, it was much worse than the dance danced by Yingzheng. This made Qin Zhongyu sigh in his heart, if he hadn't seen Yingzheng dance, he might think that this kind of dance was also very good.
After three rounds of drinking in a pleasant atmosphere, I don't know if it was because Ying Zheng felt a little tired, so he fell asleep directly on Qin Zhongyu's shoulder.
"Your Majesty, she really likes you...... In other words, she would never be so unguarded in normal times......" Seeing this situation, Xu Fu was quite envious.
"How can there be ......," Qin Zhongyu could only say embarrassedly.
"Haha, don't be so modest...... I can tell that Your Majesty is sincere to you...... Yes...... Ah, it's a wonderful feeling!"
Qin Zhongyu knew that Xu Fu must have substituted himself into the role of a spare tire in a romance drama again, so he could only smile awkwardly.
However, after chatting for a while, Qin Zhongyu gradually got acquainted with this strange Xu Fu, and found that this Xu Fu was not only a more perverted personality, but also a relatively approachable person in ordinary times.
"Now, Lord Xu Fu...... Is it okay for you to drink here and not take care of the pills?" After drinking for a while, Qin Zhongyu asked a little strangely.
"No problem, no problem, didn't Taishang Laojun guard the alchemy furnace all day long when he was refining the pill? I, Xu Fu, have also been refining the pill for more than 2,000 years, so it's no problem to walk away for a while! And I also have Himiko and Abe Harumi take care of it...... Xu Fu said nonchalantly while sipping his wine.
"That's right...... It's okay...... no problem" Qin Zhongyu asked curiously again, "But with something as valuable as immortality, hasn't anyone ever had the idea of this thing?"
"Of course there is!" Xu Fu also drank some wine, and the words became more, "There are really some people in history who have beaten me with the idea of the elixir of life, but none of them have succeeded......
"Oh, who are they?"
"For example, that kid named Oda Nobunaga! After conquering a few prefectures, he thought he was great, and then he also proclaimed himself the 'Great Demon King of the Sixth Heaven', and I don't know where he got the news about me, so he brought a large group of people to Kyoto to rob me of the elixir of life......
"At that time, I was concentrating on refining the elixir, so I didn't have time to deal with it, and I almost let him succeed! But fortunately, I was witty and plotted against his subordinate Akechi Mitsuhide, and burned that Oda Nobunaga to death in the Honganji Temple next door, so that this elixir of immortality can be regarded as preserved!"
"Uh, it turns out that Akechi Mitsuhide rebelled against Oda Nobunaga because of this?" Qin Zhongyu said in surprise.
"Of course, what do you think is the reason?"
"I don't know, there seems to be a lot of debate about this in the historiography circles...... Most people thought that Akechi Mitsuhide's rebellion was a surprise, and the motives for the rebellion were also different...... Some say it was for the sake of the emperor, some said it was for the seizure of power, and some said it was for political discord......"
"Haha, what do those historians know...... They can only speculate by what they see on the surface...... The only people who really know history are those who have experienced it......"
"That's right...... So is there anything else?" Qin Zhongyu continued to ask with interest.
"Of course there is, during the Meiji Restoration, there were restoration factions to grab the elixir, it was at that time that I resurrected Himiko and Abe Harumi and asked them to protect the elixir, I have to say that it is quite effective, especially the three artifacts in Himiko's hands, which are still quite effective in this country, and ordinary people dare not fight, which keeps the elixir of life......"
"Well, it feels like I've lost my history class again......"
"It's not surprising, young people, history is dressed up by posterity, and the truth is buried many times......," Xu Fu also said in the posture of an old-timer.
"That's indeed the ......" Qin Zhongyu also agrees with this.
