Chapter 128: Serving the Crowd
The next day, the parliamentary hall of the Dzongbu Palace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Last night, he had a "battle" with the county lord of Siqin for nearly half the night, and although Xiao Zhang was a little tired, he still got up early today, because there was still an important matter to do.
Standing at the gate of Zongbu Capital, Xiao Zhang looked into the distance, waiting for Zhang Wu's arrival.
To be honest, Xiao Zhang was really a little worried that Zhang Wu would miss the appointment, because he understood that a master like Zhang Wu who was like an idle cloud and a wild crane did not take any force in his eyes at all, even if it was an invitation from His Majesty the Emperor, Zhang Wu might be able to "forget".
According to Xiao Zhang's prior request, no one from the Zongbu tribe came to greet him, and even the leader of Zongbu was pushed back by Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang did this, in fact, he was afraid that Zhang Wu would not come, and he would not be able to get off the stage in front of everyone at that time, but his worries were a little redundant, and a figure slowly appeared on the distant horizon.
Xiao Zhang, who was almost looking through the autumn water, recognized Zhang Wu's figure at a glance, he hurriedly greeted him, and said with a long sigh of relief: "Oh, my Master Zhang, you are here, I am about to become an ant on a hot pot!"
Zhang Wu smiled: "Ants on a hot pot? This is a very strange statement, but it is very appropriate to describe you at this moment." ”
Xiao Zhang couldn't help but say that he pulled Zhang Wu and left: "Don't be joking, come with me to the council hall, a group of people are waiting for you!"
It was already nearly an hour later than the scheduled time, and the head of Zongbu was pale, he had doubted Xiao Zhang's words yesterday, how could a worldly master like Zhang Wu, who didn't even care about the crown prince, deign to serve the Zongbu tribe?
The more I thought about it, the more ridiculous I felt, and the leader of Zongbu even regretted informing all the auxiliary ministers that if that Zhang Wu really didn't come, then there would be nowhere to put his old face.
At this moment, I saw two people talking and laughing into the council hall, and the leader of Zongbu fixed his eyes, one of them was Xiao Zhang, and the other person was an old man of the Houyi tribe who looked ordinary and dressed shabby.
"Virtuous son-in-law, you are here. Regardless of his identity, the leader of Zongbu immediately got up to greet him, and then looked at the old man next to Xiao Zhang suspiciously, "Uh...... I don't know who this is......"
Xiao Zhang smiled: "This is Mr. Zhang Wu." ”
The leader of Zongbu was taken aback, he couldn't imagine that the legendary fairy-like Zhang Wu would be so shabby, and after being stunned for a long time, he came to his senses and bowed deeply to Zhang Wu: "The leader of Zongbu pays a visit to Sage Zhang." ”
Zhang Wu was very easy-going, stretched out his hand to help the leader of Zongbu, and said with a slight smile: "Zhang Wu is an idle grass man, how can he afford such a big gift from the leader?"
Having said that, Zhang Wu did not return the salute, and Hui still stood steadily, his expression was calm and peaceful, looking around at the auxiliary ministers.
Although the leader of Zongbu was an honest man, he could also see that Zhang Wu's seemingly modest attitude, but in fact, he was empty-eyed, and secretly concluded in his heart that this person should really be Zhang Wu.
"What are you still doing in a daze?" Seeing that the auxiliary ministers were still in a daze, the leader of Zongbu immediately shouted, "This is the sage Zhang Wu, why don't you hurry up and salute?"
The ministers came to their senses and saluted Zhang Wu one after another, but there was still suspicion in their expressions, they were originally suspicious of Xiao Zhang, so they would not easily believe that Xiao Zhang casually brought an old man, that is, Zhang Wu.
The leader of Zongbu was enthusiastic and hurriedly ushered Zhang Wu to his throne, while he himself sat on the sidelines, his attitude respectful as that of an auxiliary minister.
Zhang Wu was very unkind and not humble, he sat directly on the throne of the leader, and then looked down at the auxiliary ministers, with an awe-inspiring and inviolable majesty in his modest eyes.
Although Xiao Zhang was very arrogant, he couldn't help but sweat for Zhang Wu's arrogant behavior. Obediently, even if you are a saint, you shouldn't have snatched the throne of the leader of the family as soon as you came up, right?
Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Xiao Zhang desperately glanced at Zhang Wu, but Zhang Wu just glanced at him, but he didn't pay attention to it, but slowly said: "I, Zhang Wu, am invited by the leader of your tribe to come and help your tribe unify the Houyi tribe, it is really an honor." ”
Zhang Wu's words were plain, as if he was drinking cold water, as if he had great skills, and conquering the Luoshen tribe was only in his thoughts.
For Zhang Wu's attitude, the auxiliary ministers were naturally a little unhappy, although they didn't say anything, but their faces obviously had a strong look of disdain and even ridicule.
Finally, the grumpy general Wu Di was the first to express his dissatisfaction, he stood up, sneered and said: "Even if you are Zhang Wu and a legendary saint, you don't have to put up such a big shelf and sit in the leader's seat, right?"
Zhang Wu slowly looked at Wu Di, smiled slightly, and said: "This must be Wu Di, the great general of the Zongbu tribe, right? I heard that you have a short temper, and even the leader wants to give you three points, at this moment, it seems that it is really good." ”
"You ......" Wu Di suddenly turned angry and glared at a pair of huge eyes, "Although I am irritable, I can't compare to your arrogance." ”
Zhang Wu smiled modestly, then slowly stood up and said to the leader: "General Wu is the pillar of the Zongbu tribe, since he disdains to be with me, then Zhang Wu will take his leave. ”
With that, Zhang Wu walked towards the outside of the parliament hall.
The leader was suddenly in a hurry, hurriedly stepped forward to stop Zhang Wu, and saluted deeply: "Saint Zhang, Wu Di is so temperamental, please don't be like him." ”
Then, the leader looked at Wu Di fiercely and shouted, "You did a good thing! Why don't you apologize to Sage Zhang quickly?"
Wu Di didn't expect this Zhang Wu to be so arrogant, and when he heard the leader's reprimand, he immediately woke up, and had to bow down and say: "The saint is angry, my old Wu is this temper, please don't mind." ”
Zhang Wu always had a modest smile on his face, and when he saw that Wu Di had admitted his mistake, he turned around and sat on the throne again, and then said to Wu Di: "The general commanding the army should indeed have such an atmosphere, but it seems to have been used in the wrong place. ”
Wu Di, who had just calmed down, suddenly glared angrily, and was about to say something, but was stopped by a look from the leader, and then, the leader hurriedly said to Zhang Wu: "It's all the general's fault, please forgive the saint." ”
However, Wu Di couldn't stand Zhang Wu's provocation anymore, so he immediately left his seat, walked to the hall, and said angrily: "I am indeed a little dissatisfied with you, you said that you are Zhang Wu, who can prove it? It won't be for the sake of fame and reputation, and pretend to be a saint, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the leader's face suddenly turned green, although he was also a little suspicious of this ordinary-looking old man, but he didn't dare to say it so directly, he hurriedly scolded: "Wu Di, don't repeatedly provoke the majesty of the saint. ”
Wu Di snorted coldly and said, "Whether he is a saint or not is unknown." ”
The leader was frightened and hurriedly wanted to scold Wu Di again, but heard Zhang Wu say: "The general's words are reasonable. I don't know what to do for the general to believe that I am Zhang Wu?"
Wu Di immediately held his head high and said: "I want to compete with you, if you can defeat me, I will believe that you are Zhang Wu." ”
"Wu Di, you're too much!" An earth-shattering reprimand sounded, but it came from the mouth of the leader, and the usually gentle leader actually broke out into a thunderous rage, which shows how angry he is.
However, Zhang Wu nodded slowly, but he did not accept Wu Di's challenge, but slowly spoke: "Although the general is in the late stage of the tenfold realm, he has three fatal heels. ”
"First, the potential of exerting one's strength is only at the mid-level level of the tenfold realm; second, they are addicted to alcohol, lazy in their thinking, and do not want to make progress; third, although they are afraid of inwardness, their lives are still disorderly, and their bodies are weak and weak. These three weaknesses prove that the general has been out of battle for a long time, and if he encounters a tough opponent at this moment, he will definitely be defeated. ”
When these words came out, Wu Di was stunned, he never expected that this Zhang Wu would be able to tell all his weaknesses just by looking at him.
It seems that this person is really unfathomable! Wu Di's face suddenly turned red, but he was speechless, at this moment, his weakness has been seen so thoroughly by others, if he really fights, he will have no reason to win.
So, he had to obediently return to his seat.
However, at this moment, Luo Kecheng, the first minister, stood up and said coldly: "The minister has a few words, which may be a little ugly, but he can't help but spit it out." ”
