Zhu Chongba never thought that one day someone would praise his name. As he said, the name was chosen very haphazardly, because the eighth in the family was called Chonghachi, and there was no other meaning.

He didn't want to complain about anything, everyone around him was the same since he was a child, he couldn't read a single big character, he couldn't even eat, he couldn't even afford to raise a child, who would care what the name was.

The Zhu family is not a big family, and they live by renting the landlord's land, but the year is not good, and they even owe a lot of rent. Zhu Chongba is the youngest son in the family, and he is lucky, unlike other brothers and sisters, except for the eldest brother, who gave it away because he couldn't afford it. But this does not mean that he lived well under his parents' knees, and when he was not very old, he went to herd cattle for the landlord's family. But the good times didn't last long, the landlord's rent couldn't be owed again and again, and the world was not peaceful, so in the end, Zhu's father couldn't hold on and died, and even the cemetery was funded by others.

Since then, the Zhu brothers have been separated. That year, Zhu Chong was eighty-seven and entered the Huangjue Temple.

I want to be a monk in order to have a full meal, and the temple is not so peaceful, and a group of people who are not even a little novice is naturally turned around. But even so, half a year later, Zhu Chongba still had to leave there, because the food in the temple was not enough to eat, and he had to go out to make a fortune.

Huayuan is just a nice saying, but for Zhu Chongba, who is a monk just to have enough to eat, that is to ask for food. Of course, if you want to live, there's nothing you can't do. Along the way, he has traveled more and more places, and he has also met all kinds of people, and sometimes he meets kind-hearted people who can eat a full meal, most of the time he is half starved, and occasionally he faints from hunger. For example, this time, he fainted directly from hunger on the tea stall at the bottom of the mountain, but the stall owner showed a rare kindness, thinking that there were not many brothers in the village, so he picked him up the mountain, intending to develop a strong laborer.

After waking up, Zhu Chongba did not reject this mentions, if he could eat enough, what would he not do? But he didn't expect that just because there were two people here, he only showed that he seemed to appreciate himself, so he let the owner of the village, who had patted himself on the shoulder and said that he was the king of the mountain, and the promising village changed hands and sent him out.

The most basic trust between people has really been eaten by dogs.

In this regard, Zhu Chongba just wants to say: Eat well!

If nothing else, just look at the way you dress, and fools know that it is more promising to follow that person. He was able to wander all the way and survive in this world where the Han people were not as good as pigs and sheep, although he did not eat less, but he also trained a pair of eyes very well. If you don't say that people are very accurate, there are seven or eight points.

Who is soft-hearted and easy to cling, he knows it in his heart.

These thoughts only turned in his mind for a moment, and his whole person became attentive, and even Yusheng had to admit that with him, there was more than a little convenience along the way.

Zhu Chongba has traveled a lot of places in the past two years, and he can say one, two, or three times every time he goes to a place. When I met someone I didn't know, I generously said I didn't know, and then went out to inquire. When passing by a small village that was being slaughtered by Mongolian soldiers, Yusheng did not hesitate to shoot directly, and undoubtedly easily solved the dozen or so Mongolian soldiers, and since then, Zhu Chongba's eyes have become more intense when he looks at him.

It's just that he didn't dare to say anything, because since then, the faces of the two sons he followed have been so heavy that they can drip ink. Zhu Chongba really believed that they were from overseas, and if they were from the Central Plains, I am afraid they would have been accustomed to it.

Yusheng's mood is indeed very bad, and seriously speaking, this is the real troubled times he has personally experienced. Unlike staying in the capital when he was in Daqing and only knowing the war report, and he didn't want to go to the kingdom of Western Xia to make trouble even if he experienced the battlefield in the Great Song Dynasty, what he saw now was the appearance of all living beings, desperate and painful, and there was little hope.

To be honest, Yusheng has the urge to go to Dadu, and Zhao Zhen's explosives recipe he still remembers that it is not difficult to send people to heaven. But he still has reason in the end, calculating that Li Yuanhao occupied the right time and place for a while, and there was a group of people behind Li Yuanhao who were desperately dragging their feet. But here, the Yuan Dynasty has already been established, and Yusheng will not be naïve to think that only a few heads and brains can solve the problem.

Fortunately, he was lucky, and he could copy a Zhu Yuanzhang from a bandit's den.

Zhu Chongba couldn't help but shudder, having the illusion of being stared at.

Zhu Chongba is a good guide, but what he understands is only the part that ordinary people are involved in. Once it is related to the rivers and lakes, he can only name a beggar gang, because when he came out to wander, he also had a lot of dealings with beggars. However, even if he is a beggar, he can't say anything. But he is clever, and when he sees someone dressed up in the rivers and lakes, he will take the initiative to go up to express his admiration, and then find out something by the way, generally speaking, he is still very tempting and willing to pretend to be a big guy. But the truth of the news is not much better than hearsay.

In this way, Yusheng wants to know about the rivers and lakes, so he can only inquire in person.

At least, with his eyesight, he wouldn't see the ruffians and hooligans and think that people were mixed up in the rivers and lakes. Anyway, although the way of the world has changed, it is no longer the Daqing he is familiar with, but since there is Zhang Sanfeng, why can't there be Ji Bingyan.

With a faint glimmer of hope, Yusheng did not pay less attention. But just like what should come will always come, and what is not there cannot be created out of nothing, and he can only accept reality. It was another piece of news that caught his attention.

Wudang Zhang Cuishan, who had disappeared for ten years, appeared.

Zhang Wuxia ranked fifth among the Wudang Seven Heroes, and was the last apprentice taught by Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Zhenren, and was also famous in the rivers and lakes. Of course, that's not the point, the point is that he disappeared with the golden lion king Xie Xun ten years ago. Xie Xun has made countless enemies, and everyone shouts and fights in the rivers and lakes. Some of those people were indeed his enemies, but many more wanted to kill him in the name of getting the dragon slayer knife in his hand.

Martial arts supreme, sword slaying dragon. Command the world, who dares to disobey.

Yusheng didn't believe that he could do this with a knife alone, but his interest was indeed hooked. If he had the chance, he would have liked to get his hands on the knife for a few days. If that knife can really command the world, then just teach Zhu Chongba a set of knife techniques. That kid is a smart man, worthy of being able to overthrow the Yuan Court and establish the Ming Dynasty in the future, Yusheng has been secretly observing him these days, and naturally knows that he is so attentive and will never be just because he was transferred to himself, he is so positive, it seems that he is not satisfied with the identity of a long-term follower, but wants to be a further henchman.

Yusheng was not very satisfied with this, he felt that Zhu Chongba's request was too small. But for Zhu Chongba, when he was not forced into a desperate situation and there was only one way to go, he was willing to follow a powerful person to be fed and clothed and sheltered. The ferocity and brutality of the Mongols have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but if there is a way to live, it is impossible to think of rebellion.

Of course, Zhu Chongba's thinking has begun to change. When he found that as long as he knew how to work hard, those Mongol soldiers would be easily dealt with, and the indestructible image of the past collapsed. In the dead of night, Zhu Chongba, whose education level can only reach the level of barely reading and writing, will think of the stories told by the old beggar who once hid in the ruined temple with him to avoid the rain, and his heart is on fire.

Yusheng didn't know that when he wanted Zhu Chongba to be alone, Zhu Chongba had already regarded him as the master in his heart, waiting for him to be the first to confess his loyalty once he had his mind.

By the time he arrived in Wudang, there were already hundreds of Mongolian soldiers in Yusheng's hands. He saw that Zhu Chongba deliberately led himself to some uneven places, but this was not harmful to him, and he had a lot of merit in saving people, so he didn't say anything more. It was all over the building, and after learning from Yusheng that Zhu Chongba actually had the appearance of a hidden dragon, he was originally good to him, and now he took advantage of his free time to teach him to read. And Zhu Chongba regarded this as a recognition and reward for him, feeling that the dawn was just around the corner, and the whole person was more energetic.

It's more of a virtuous circle.

Yusheng found that the closer to Wudang, the less chaotic it was. However, when it really arrived at the foot of Wudang Mountain, there was chaos again.

This time the chaos was brought by the Jianghu people.

Zhang Sanfeng's 100th birthday is discussed a lot in the rivers and lakes, and people who have lived for 100 years can be human beings without calling them old immortals. People are old and virtuous, and such people cannot be offended lightly. Therefore, even if Wudang does not send many invitations to the outside world, not many people have dissenting opinions, just because they are unlucky and can't touch the blessings of the old birthday star.

But since the news of Zhang Cuishan's return spread in the rivers and lakes, Wudangshan's invitation has suddenly become hot. There are those who want to find a way to ask for it, some who want to rob it, and there are even some scoundrels who plan to go directly without an invitation at that time, and they can't beat them out in the style of Wudang. No matter what the people of Wudang think in their hearts, for those who have evil thoughts, Wudang's birthday is no longer a matter of blessing, but the key to the rise and fall of the entire martial arts.

The name of the Dragon Slayer Knife's martial arts supreme command in the world is really exciting.

Of course, Yusheng didn't have an invitation, so they could only do it once uninvited. Generally speaking, on such days, as long as the gifts are sincere and sincere, few people will be turned away. However, contrary to Yusheng's expectations, the Wudang disciple who was at the foot of the mountain did not wait for the words to finish, and invited them up the mountain.

"Is there something wrong with me?" Hua Manlou saw that the Wudang disciple glanced at him from time to time, so he simply asked directly.

The Wudang disciple was entangled for a moment, "Please forgive me, it's just that the son looks quite kind." ”

The word face goodness has a simple meaning of good-looking goodness, but it can be heard in the ears of Yusheng and Hua Manlou, which is another meaning.

"But does anyone look like him?" Yusheng asked directly.

The disciple was entangled for a moment, nodded and admitted, "This son seems to be related to the fifth uncle." ”

Wudang's Fifth Uncle...... Isn't that Zhang Cuishan?

Finding out that it was not the haunt of the surname Chu, Yusheng was disappointed.

"That's really fate." Hua Manlou greeted quietly, "I have long heard of Zhang Wuxia's silver hook and iron stroke, I don't know when I will be able to see it." ”

But the disciple said no more, led the three of them to a side hall and served them with tea, and then withdrew. He has to report to the master, Wudang is now an eventful time, and suddenly there is a person who looks more than ten years younger than the fifth uncle and looks similar, who knows what the conspiracy is?

"Wudang hasn't changed much." Yusheng has been on Wudang Mountain and has a lot to say about it.

"By the way, what is the birthday gift you prepared for Zhang Zhenren?" As long as you don't want to deliberately find fault with your birthday, it is a must to prepare a birthday gift. Yusheng said that this matter would be handed over to him, but Hua Manlou didn't ask much. Seeing him just now motioning to Zhu Chongba to hand over a flat wooden box to that Wudang disciple, Hua Manlou asked curiously.

"It's a boxing technique." Yusheng played with the teacup, a little careless.

Hua Manlou is relieved.

Zhu Chongba secretly complained on the side, in his opinion, the value of this birthday gift was completely unworthy of their identity. He kept an eye on where the so-called boxing technique came from beginning to end, but he found a bookstore where he could copy books, spent money to buy pen and ink, and after writing it, he asked someone to order it to make it look like a book, and he spent less than half a tael of silver before and after. Looking at the not luxurious but atmospheric furnishings in this side hall, Zhu Chong was worried that he would be driven out by the embarrassed and angry master for a while.

Yusheng's mind has drifted away. What he gave Zhang Sanfeng was naturally not an ordinary boxing method, but Zhang Sanfeng's Taijiquan, which had not yet been fully established and formed at this time-only when he thought of the source of this boxing method, he felt that Wuhua was not so hateful-With this boxing method, he didn't believe that Zhang Sanfeng could not bear to see himself, and once he wanted to see himself, he naturally wanted to discuss the Tao.

As the top figure in the martial arts of the world, Yusheng wanted to know his martial arts level, and then calculated the overall strength of this Jianghu.

No way, who made him interested in the dragon slayer knife that has now plunged the entire rivers and lakes into a state of frenzy? If you want to poke a hornet's nest, you have to know if the hornet is good to deal with, right?
