When Su Hanju heard the old servant's answer, he quickly turned it over in his mind and found that among the generals he knew, there was no one with the surname Zhang. However, he faintly heard the voice of the visitor and felt a bit familiar, and his heart suddenly felt like a cat scratching it. , eager to know who the visitor is.
"General Zhang? Who is General Zhang?" He couldn't help but asked curiously, while putting on his clothes and getting out of bed.
"You kid, your bad temper has not changed, but your memory has deteriorated a lot. You even forgot about me, my brother. You really deserve a beating!" The old man walked quickly through the outer room and broke into Su Hanju's bedroom.
This was extremely impolite behavior, not to mention that there was a prince in the room, but the old man did it without any scruples, as if he was entering his own bedroom.
In the bedroom, Su Hanju was already stunned in front of the bed. Tears welled up from the corners of his eyes and filled them up in a moment. He could already tell who the person was, General Zhang, and it was as if he was dreaming.
When the old man stepped into the bedroom and appeared in front of him, Su Hanju burst into tears. He seemed to have thousands of words to say in his heart, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say. He only regretted that he was too ignorant and couldn't find a way to express his heart. Words of joy.
"You kid, we haven't seen each other for decades, how come you cry when we finally meet? Come on, give me one." The old man looked at Su Hanju who was in tears and joked, but his own eyes were also wet. .
The two stepped forward quickly, opened their arms and hugged each other fiercely.
The old servant looked at this scene and couldn't help but stain his clothes with tears.
The two hugged each other for a long time before letting go.
Su Hanju wiped the tears from his face and asked, still full of surprise: "Brother Qingsong, why did you come to the southern border? Has the war in the northern border subsided?"
Qingsong, Zhang Qingsong.
Perhaps not many people remember or have heard of this name, but his other name is well known.
Butcher Zhang.
That's right, the burly and energetic old man in front of him is the man who killed the big-toothed dog to the point of fear decades ago, and also killed the powerful Wang family and gang clans in the southern border to the point where they cried for their father and mother.
At 108 years old this year, he looks more than ten years younger than the 96-year-old Su Hanju.
Mrs. Zhang Tu was in the northern border in the far north, and this was the southern border in the completely opposite direction. They were thousands of miles apart, so Su Hanju never expected that General Zhang would be him.
"Northern Xinjiang has become a mess. Your eldest brother is still chattering and yelling every day, which makes me upset. I gave up my job in anger. Suddenly I started talking about you, kid, so I came to find you." Butcher Zhang smiled.
"Yes, I should have quit a long time ago! I have fought for him all my life, and I didn't pay him much in wages, but he did a lot of shit. He's already old, and he's still acting like a bully, so go away!" Su Han nodded approvingly and asked smoothly. Said: "Brother, is he in good health?"
"Hey," Butcher Zhang sighed and said, "I am as tired as a dog every day, and I have to suffer from the cowardice of a group of civil and military ministers. I have to think about conspiracies even when I pee or pee. Do you think he can get better? I’m afraid I won’t be alive for a few more years.”
If these disrespectful words were spread to the imperial capital, the desk in Su Hanlin's study room would be piled up with his excerpts. However, Su Hanlin wouldn't even look at it. Those who participated in Zhezi only participated in a symbolic way, and no one would pursue it further, because there would be no consequences. They had already treated the rogue Zhang Butcher.
The rogue Qian Donkey is at the end of his rope.
"Hey, my body can't stand it anymore." Su Hanju said sadly after hearing this.
Butcher Zhang said angrily: "You cut off your arms and threw them away when you were angry. What kind of body can withstand what you build like this?"
Su Hanju looked embarrassed and quickly changed the subject and asked, "Didn't my sister-in-law come with you?"
"She didn't come, she stayed in northern Xinjiang to guard her family business." Butcher Zhang shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "I don't know which old blind man I asked to tell her fortune a few years ago. He said that she had a long-lost grandson who would be born in a few years. I will go back to Northern Xinjiang to recognize my ancestors. The dead old woman was going crazy with greed for her grandson. After hearing this, she was stunned. I chewed two extra bones during the meal, so she had to scold me, saying that I was a prodigal and would not give anything to my grandson. Keep the family business. Thanks to that blind man, he can run fast, otherwise I will have to break his legs!"
Butcher Zhang's teeth were itching with hatred, and his beard trembled as he cursed. At the same time, there was a gloomy and sad look in his eyes. Once a person has mental problems in his later years, he may be close to death. It is impossible for him to have a grandson in this life, but there is a female apprentice whom he has not seen for many years. She is in southern Xinjiang. Taking her back may relieve the old woman's pain of lovesickness and let her live a few more years.
"I heard that your boy was injured and couldn't have children. Has he never been cured?" Su Hanju asked.
"You are lucky enough to be alive now, how dare you ask for anything else!" Butcher Zhang sighed.
"Come on, let's not mention these troublesome things. Shunzi, quickly tell the kitchen to prepare wine and food. I want to have a good meal with Brother Qingsong!" Su Hanju ordered.
The old servant responded: "Your Majesty, I have already given the order. Go ahead and urge me."
"Go! Go quickly!" Su Hanju said impatiently.
"Wait a minute." Butcher Zhang stopped the old servant and warned: "I came to the southern border quietly, so don't make it public."
"General, don't worry, I will keep my mouth shut." The old servant responded.
Zhang Butcher smiled and said: "If the civil and military ministers in the court knew that Zhang Tufu, the king of Pingbei in northern Xinjiang, suddenly appeared in southern Xinjiang during this sensitive period, and secretly met with the king of Zhennan late at night, they would be in trouble."
"Blow it up, don't worry about it!" Su Han cursed.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense. Brother, I'm here to visit you, not to cause trouble for you. Several princes in the imperial capital are forming cliques and are in full swing. Why, I also want the two boys from your family to join in and get involved. Feet?" Butcher Zhang asked.
"If I had thought about it, I wouldn't have stayed in the Southern Territory and not gone anywhere." Su Han shook his head and smiled bitterly, then asked: "The juniors are making so much noise, does the elder brother not care about it?"
"What?" Butcher Zhang laughed dumbly and said, "Your eldest brother is secretly encouraging them to fight. You said there is only one piece of meat. If you want to eat meat, you must sharpen your claws and fangs first."
"Your Majesty, General, the food and wine are here. Come out and sit down to drink and chat." The old servant shouted from outside.
"good."
The two of them went to the outside room, sat down at the table, filled their wine glasses, and poured three glasses on the ground to pay tribute to the brothers who were no longer alive, and then raised their glasses.
Su Han raised his wine glass and said with tears in his eyes: "My health is getting worse day by day. I may not survive the spring equinox next year. I thought I would never see my eldest brother again in this life, but I never expected that my eldest brother would come from far away in northern Xinjiang to visit my younger brother." Me, I am so happy, so happy! I offer this cup to my brother, and I wish him the best.
Dexiang, sleep well, and live another hundred years! "
"Haha, good!" Butcher Zhang laughed happily and drank the wine in one gulp. Putting down the wine glass, he looked into the void and a palm-sized white jade brocade box appeared out of thin air. He placed it on the table and pushed it in front of Su Hanju, saying: "I asked for the elixir for you. Eat it with wine. I will keep your dragon essence." Hu Meng, live happily for five years! Don't drag your sick body around every day, humming with sore waist and arms all day long, living a pitiful and humble life."
Su Hanju opened the brocade box and took out a blood-red pill the size of a peanut. The pill was crystal clear, with ripples of light flowing inside, as if it was pregnant with life. The aroma is fragrant and tempting, and Su Hanju's mouth is salivating with greed in just a moment.
Gulu——
Without any doubt, Su Hanju couldn't wait to drink it down.
The old servant looked on without any worry, not at all worried that Butcher Zhang would harm his master. If this were a pill given by someone else, he would not let Su Hanju take it randomly without checking it a hundred and eighty times.
After the pill was taken down, the entire abdominal cavity immediately seemed to be on fire. Su Hanju's face instantly turned red with blood.
"It's a little uncomfortable, please bear with it." Butcher Zhang reminded.
"Compared to the pain at night when my old illness relapses, this pain is like scratching an itch," Su Han said.
But soon a look of pain appeared on his face, because a sea of fire was raging in his abdomen and gradually spreading and burning to various parts of his body.
"Uh-" Su Hanju tried his best to hold on, but in the end he couldn't hold back his painful groan. He felt that the fire was burning his body, and it was burning bit by bit from the inside out of the bones. It was extremely painful.
The whole process lasted about half a cup of tea, but Su Hanju felt as long as decades. When the burning pain in his body gradually subsided, his entire body was completely soaked with sweat.
"Damn! This force is too strong, isn't it? I must have strong bones, otherwise I would have to roll on the ground and scream." Su Hanju wiped the sweat from his face and said with lingering fear.
"Do you feel any changes in your body?" Butcher Zhang asked with a smile.
"Hey, all the blocked Qi meridians have been penetrated, the Qi and blood are full, the pulse is strong, and the breathing is so damn smooth! Damn, I feel like I'm back in my prime! Brother, this medicine is amazing!" Su Hanju waved his fist. The more he talks, the more excited he gets.
Butcher Zhang said: "I dug a tomb in northern Xinjiang and got two pills. I took one pill myself. This one was meant for your elder brother, but he was reluctant to take it, so he asked me to give it to you. Let you take it. After that, hurry up and go to the Imperial Capital to see him, otherwise you really won’t be able to see him.”
"Brother, he -" Su Han's eyes turned red, knowing that this was because his eldest brother loved him and wanted him to live a few more years and enjoy a few more years of peace and happiness. "I will leave for the imperial capital when the situation in the southern border becomes more stable."
"Why, after hearing your tone, do you still want to go to the battlefield and fight?" Zhang Butcher asked with a smile.
"Before, I was too determined to do it, but now, I can give it a try." Su Hanju said eagerly.
"Then let's fight side by side one more time before we enter the coffin and try to recreate the feeling we had back then." Butcher Zhang said with gleaming eyes.
"I'm afraid not." Su Han shook his head and said.
"Why?" Butcher Zhang was puzzled.
"Because of the Saint's order: You cannot participate in mortal wars above the Nine Heavens. Brother, you should have entered the Star Realm long ago, right?" Su Hanju said.
