Chapter 246 Brewing Tea and Discussing the Past by the Wall
This move left Chu Chen completely dumbfounded. What the hell was this?
They were enemies just a moment ago, but now they're like old friends.
Chen Qingxuan also looked at him with disdain and was about to lash out when Mu Xueqin suddenly flew out.
When I returned, I had an extra-large tempered glass cup in my hand.
He then poured all the tea from the large fairness cup into a glass and walked over to the old man.
"Xueqin greets Uncle-Master Heizi!"
"Hey, you're that little girl from back then. You've grown so much, and your cultivation is pretty good."
Old Hei picked up his teacup, turned to look at Mu Xueqin, and a kind look appeared in his eyes.
"Alright, these are my two apprentices, and this is Young Master Chu. You know them both, so let's talk!"
As soon as Lao Hei finished speaking, Zhu Liuxiang took over the conversation.
"What business is it of yours what I, the old geezer, say? Your female disciple is not bad, but your male disciple is a despicable scoundrel, just like you."
Chen Qingxuan's eyes widened, thinking to himself, "What the hell is going on? What did I do to you?"
But because his master was there, although he was furious, he wisely kept quiet.
Instead, he took out a cigarette and lit it for himself, looking melancholy.
"Look, what kind of weird kung fu are you practicing? You're even smoking smoke."
Old Hei couldn't stand looking at Chen Qingxuan and Chu Chen at this moment.
After all, his thigh was still a little sore.
"I'm telling you, you old monster, why are you picking on the younger generation? Have some shame."
Zhu Liuxiang interrupted the old black man's rant and said sternly to him.
Seeing this, Chu Chen also lit a cigarette for himself with a smug look, and took out a bottle of strong liquor. He popped the cap open and handed it to Chen Qingxuan: "You drunkard, cigarettes, alcohol and tea go best together. Some people will never understand this in their entire lives."
Chen Qingxuan angrily took the wine from Chu Chen's hand and gulped down two mouthfuls.
Then, the two of them simultaneously exhaled a puff of smoke at the old black man.
I can't beat you, but I'll still make you furious.
"Alright, let's get down to business. Do you know the consequences of following him? Do you think you're doing right by your master?"
Zhu Liuxiang said, looking at Lao Hei who was pouring tea from a glass.
"Hmph! It's better than you following Zhou Shixun."
Over the next half hour, Chu Chen gradually understood what was going on.
It turns out that the old man in front of them was none other than Zhu Liuxiang's fellow disciple.
That is, Chen Qingxuan and Mu Xueqin's uncle-master.
Many years ago, when the previous emperor was still in power, the two of them followed their master into the palace to meet the emperor.
Seeing that the two boys were clever, the emperor, with the consent of their teacher, allowed them to stay in the capital and have children.
Another important task was to protect the two princes.
One was named Zhou Shixun, and the other was named Zhou Shiji.
That's right, the so-called Crimson Swallow Flight was actually Zhou Shiji.
The two were inseparable brothers since childhood and were the two princes most valued by the late emperor. The one who would inherit the throne in the future would be chosen from among these two.
So as the two grew up, a rift gradually developed between them.
Meanwhile, Zhu Liuxiang and his junior brother Hei Zi, who were protecting the two princes, gradually developed a rift due to their accumulated thoughts.
So, a cliché plot unfolds.
The throne was seized by Zhou Shixun, who originally intended to kill Zhou Shiji as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, the old black man got the news, rescued him, and took him to the northern frontier, where he lived in hiding under an assumed name.
After Zhou Shiji changed his name to Chi Yanfei, he gathered talented and wicked people in the northern frontier and gradually expanded his operation.
After so many years of development, it has become the Tongtian Divine Cult as it is today.
At this time, perhaps in this century, which is now the time when Chi Yanfei felt the time was right, he came to the heart of the Great Xia.
The original plan was to capture those people Zhou Shixun cared about, to annoy him and make him uneasy, and then the army would join forces to take the capital and reclaim the throne.
Unexpectedly, they chose the wrong person from the start, selecting Chu Chen, the sixth brother.
So with the appearance of Zhu Liuxiang, the plan was completely ruined.
After listening, Chu Chen couldn't help but sigh: This is the most ruthless of all, the imperial family. Is the throne really that good?
"Go back and persuade that century to give up. And you, if you come back, we'll still be brothers."
"Forget it. Look at this world, people are suffering. And what has Zhou Shixun done?"
"If they only care about indulging in pleasure and associating with such despicable people, what future does the Great Xia have?"
After listening to Zhu Liuxiang's advice, Lao Hei pointed at Chu Chen and said.
Chu Chen was furious after hearing this. Why the hell did they have to drag him into this again?
He threw down his cigarette butt and said, "Are you deliberately trying to mess with me? What does their fight for the throne have to do with you?"
"You say the people of this world are suffering, go out and see for yourself how many people have been displaced after this disaster. You're good at lying through your teeth."
"They used the pretense of saving the people to fight for the throne and even established the so-called Tongtian Divine Cult. If they're so capable, why don't they ask the heavens to send down some rain? Can't you see that nothing is growing in the ground?"
"Where was your Tongtian Divine Cult when I was delivering grain to the people of the Great Xia? Where were you then?"
Chu Chen cursed the old man viciously.
The old black man was stunned on the spot: "Kid, how dare you speak so rudely and show no respect for me? Is this your upbringing?"
Old Hei was also furious at this moment, and stood up, slamming his fist on the table at Chu Chen.
"If you were a human being, I would respect you, but you're not even as good as Big Yellow, so how can I respect you?"
Chu Chen continued to speak aggressively to the old black man.
He analyzed the situation and concluded that Old Hei and Zhu Liuxiang were roughly equal in martial arts skills.
Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to sit here chatting so calmly right now.
That's why he dared to curse at the old black man.
Another objective was to provoke Old Hei's anger, to make him fight with Zhu Liuxiang, and ideally, for Zhu Liuxiang to kill him.
Or cripple him if you want; then you can sneak up on him when the time comes, and you won't have to worry about not being able to kill him.
With this person around, Chu Chen always felt a little uneasy.
It would be troublesome if he took advantage of Zhu Liuxiang's absence to cause trouble for Mashan Village one day.
"Kid, do you know what happens when you anger me?"
"Heh, do you think a so-called grandmaster could kill an ordinary person like me?"
"Besides, with the Taoist priest here today, what can you do?"
After saying that, Chu Chen put his hands on his hips, striking a pose like a shrew yelling in the street.
I learned this trick when I was delivering food; those older women are quite formidable.
At this moment, Chu Chen was just short of using the "retreat" technique, a legendary move passed down by those middle-aged women.
Looking at Chu Chen in front of him, Lao Hei's anger, which had just been calmed by drinking a cup of tea, was reignited.
