Chapter 705: Greater Trouble
I don't know if I don't ask, and I'm shocked when I ask. That's when Mansour knew what the other party was all about...... There were too many things to ask about Zongxin, so he took a few Uighur merchants to Ahmad's house and asked him to hear them for himself.
Ahmad drank several pounds of wine in fright, and a group of people ate most of the whole sheep before they could explain it thoroughly. These Uighur merchants repeatedly warned not to offend Zongxin, because he was the most offended person in the world, and he was extremely shameless and very powerful, and he directly killed three emperors, one indirectly killed, and one was frightened. Because there are two countries where Zongxin died directly, namely Dahan and Ma Chu.
This can only show that Zongxin's resourcefulness is superb, if there is no room for resourcefulness, no matter how smart it is, it is useless. But the fact that he killed 50,000 people in the Northern Han Dynasty with one move fully proves Zong Xin's military literacy and peerless miraculous skills.
When the Uighur merchants first mentioned this, Ahmad almost drove them away, how could there be such a thing in the world? None of what they just said can be trusted.
But when the Uighur merchants explained the whole story in detail, Ahmad and al-Mansur broke out in a cold sweat. They had drunk a lot of wine, but they didn't have any strength at all, because all the wine was oozing out of their pores, and they drank it for nothing.
Coupled with the descriptions of the soldiers who fled, Ahmad and Mansur knew how powerful Zongxin was. Not to mention his great feat of killing 50,000 people with one move, just the eighteen horsemen under his seat are powerful enough, only a dozen people, and the 800 people killed have no power to fight back...... If the Eighteen Cavalry of Youyun had tried a little harder, this group of soldiers would have no chance of escaping back at all.
It's terrifying, how can there be such a terrible person in the world? The martial arts of the Central Plains are so powerful that they can make a person's whole body burn......
Ahmad suddenly remembered something, and then said, "Mansur, I have thought of something. Maybe...... It's just that maybe, this person has other roles for us, and it doesn't necessarily matter. ”
"What does it do?"
"Lead the snake out of the hole. Ahmad said: "As long as he shows his ability to put his whole body on fire, then the person we are looking for will automatically appear, and then there will be a chance to catch him." ”
"You're talking about the leader of the Vulcan Cult?"
"That's him. Although Ahmad is a little depressed about the affairs of the Central Plains merchants, if the bigger problem can be solved, it will not hinder him not to collect any taxes from the Central Plains merchants. As long as you can catch the leader of the Vulcan Sect, it will be a great achievement.
Mansour nodded, "It makes sense, if he can really be on fire, talk to him about it, maybe he will agree to this matter." Since it is rumored that he is so capable, it shouldn't be difficult to catch just one person. The leader of the Vulcan Cult has given us a headache for many years, but he is so strong in martial arts that several of us have not caught him. ”
"It's Zongxin, I'll discuss it with him tomorrow when the caravan enters Xizhou City. As long as he's willing to say yes, nothing else matters. If the power of the Vulcan Cult continues to expand, it will directly threaten the power of the Khan, and we must remove this thorn in the Khan's side. ”
Ahmad was originally very scared, but now he suddenly calmed down, no matter how powerful he was, after all, he was not a Uighur, he always had to go back to the Central Plains. During his time in the Uighurs, let him do the Uighurs a great favor, so that relations between the Uighurs and the Central Plains could be harmonious in the future.
"It's up to you. ”
It was also after Ahmad's reminder that Mansur figured out that it would be a great thing if he could use the sect to induce the leader of the Vulcan Cult with his sect beliefs. The Vulcan cult is too evil, their leader is even more demagoguery, and the Uighur people are simple and kind, and they are easily deceived, and the reactionary forces are ready to move.
Next
A large number of merchants set off from Hotan Town and entered Xizhou City directly, this time Xizhou City did not charge an official tax of fifty taels of silver, only two taels of silver, which was much cheaper than other places. The merchants really admired Master Zongxin's resourcefulness, in fact, he could burn silk under the city of Xizhou as early as possible, and this matter would definitely scare the people in Xizhou City to agree to everything.
However, this matter was still a bit dangerous, and the Uighur army had attacked them last night, and if it had not been for Master Zongxin to meet the enemy, these merchants would have died at the hands of the Uighurs.
The businessmen also saw through it, and if they came to someone else's territory, if they didn't have any ability, they would only be bullied. It's like the Uighurs going to the Central Plains to do business and coming back at a loss every time. However, the Uighur merchants were indeed deceitful, believing that if something was good, they would be able to sell it, but the results were often unexpected.
Therefore, the Uighurs hardly knew how to do business, and although it was not very far from Toyosu, the Uighurs were also reluctant to go to Toyosu, and it was too complicated to do business with the Central Plains. With such a large caravan, there were only a few Uighur merchants, and they also suffered countless losses before they learned to be wise.
The Uighurs really had no choice, they needed tea and silk from the Central Plains, and the things from the Central Plains were so good that they had to go there to buy them even if they suffered a loss.
Ahmad was waiting by the city gate early and immediately greeted Zongxin and his party when they saw it. This time, they didn't bring soldiers and horses, or even rode their mounts, and walked all the way to Zong Xin.
"Master Zongxin. ”
Zongxin chuckled, "Know me?" ”
"That's ......" Ahmad said embarrassedly, "I have an important matter to discuss with Master Zongxin, can I take a step to speak?"
Zong Xin looked left and right, then nodded, "Where to talk?"
"I've already prepared a reception wine, please here. Ahmad was very polite, after all, he had a request for help, and Zongxin could not agree to this matter, and he had no choice but to take him.
When you come to Ahmad's house, this place is not ordinary. Most of the things are made of marble, the rest of the place is very strong and smooth stone, and Guo Wei's palace is not as imposing as this one. It's not that it's so good here, it's just that Guo Wei's palace is too shabby......
Guo Weiyan used the palace of Liu Chengyou in the Later Han Dynasty, a few years ago because Li Shouzhen set fire to more than half of it, although Liu Chengyou was newly built, but after Guo Wei ascended the throne, the project was almost stopped, and only a few workers were working hard every day. Guo Wei is too critical of this kind of thing, he doesn't want to spend money in this kind of place, as long as there is a place to live. The money should still be spent on the people to be worthy of their throne.
Although the Ahmad Mansion is beautiful, it is still too small compared to Zongxin's group, and the Eighteen Horsemen of Youyun alone can't fit it, not to mention that there are dozens of masters from the Thunder King's Mansion present. Zongxin had no choice but to give them money and let them go out on their own.
After the group sat down, Ahmad said respectfully: "I don't know that Master Zongxin has come from afar, forgive your sins." ”
Zong Xin stared at a table of dishes that had been prepared a long time ago, and then said, "Say something first, so as not to be embarrassed to refuse after eating your meal." ”
Ahmad said, "Is it true that I heard that Master Zongxin would use martial arts to produce flames?"
"It's true. Zong Xin spread out his palms, and suddenly a flame burst into flames, the temperature was not too high, but it also startled the people around him.
"Awesome, awesome. Ahmad said, "Is it possible to make the fire bigger? For example, to bathe the whole body in the fire, can this be done?"
"It's not difficult. Zong Xin closed his eyes slightly to condense his true qi, and then with a sound of 'boom~', a strong flame erupted from his whole body, but this time it surprised everyone, these flames were different from usual, although the temperature was still very high, but it was very mild. The usual flames seem to be spewing out, and it's very manic, and it's terrifying to watch.
From this point, it also shows that after Zongxin's skill was improved, his control over the flames also changed qualitatively. Zong Xin has already stepped into the realm of the top master, but the process will be very long, but at his age, he has already stepped into this realm, and his future development is limitless.
Although Zhao Kuangyin has always thought that his martial arts are not much different from Zongxin, it seems that there is still a distance between the two. Today, in addition to the famous top masters on the rivers and lakes, the only people who can compete with Zong Xin are Zhao Kuangji and Lei Tianxiao, and both of them are about ten years older than Zong Xin, and when Zong Xin reaches their age, his martial arts will already surpass them.
Zongxin's four wives looked at him with great admiration, because his father-in-law was the most powerful person today, and he was the best in the world in terms of wisdom and martial arts. There is no need to verify the resourcefulness, and even if Zong Xin does not know martial arts, he will be the most powerful person in the world. His martial arts are also unparalleled in the world, his talent is excellent, and he can imitate any martial arts at a glance, and now his cultivation has reached this realm, even Dugu Xingyue, who is nearly thirty years old, is beyond his reach.
Ahmad admired: "Sure enough, as the legend goes, you can really bathe yourself in the fire, then it's easy to do." Please also ask Master Zongxin to help with this, as long as you can help with this, the Uighurs will give the best treatment to the merchants of the Central Plains, and they will never encounter any inequality in the future. The Central Plains merchants would have a higher status than the Uighurs. ”
"We'll talk about the conditions later, can you say anything first?"
Zong Xin will not agree so easily, who knows what this group of people let themselves do. The world is sinister and long, and it is absolutely right to have a long heart. There must be a reason why the enemy, who was originally going to send troops to attack, now has such a good attitude towards him, and this reason is by no means simple.
Ahmad said: "It is a thing, there is a big bad guy in the Uighur territory, and we want to catch this big bad guy, but this man is very good at martial arts, and we don't know where he is. Several times we found his traces and he escaped, and we couldn't catch up with them. So I hope that Master Zongxin will lead him out, and if he can capture or kill this person alive, the entire Uighurs will be grateful to Master Zongxin. ”
