Five hundred and sixtieth chapters Huang Zhong's weakness
Taishici looked at the middle-aged man with thick short beards in front of him with great interest. From his vicissitudes of face and slightly depressed eyes, it could be seen that this guy was obviously not young, enough to make Taishici call him uncle.
Although Huang Zhong is just a small village chief in Changsha City, when Taishi Ci faces him, he faintly feels danger and pressure from Huang Zhong. It seems that the eldest brother is right. This person is really a person of Zilong's level and must be one level higher than himself.
What made Taishi Ci feel even more incredible is that this eighth-level powerful general is restrained. If he had not carefully observed and deliberately used his aura to provoke him, it would have been difficult for people to see that this ordinary veteran was actually a top warrior.
Not to mention anything else, just his ability to hide his momentum is already very admirable. The so-called real person does not show his appearance, just like this kind of awesome person. Although Taishi Ci was a little dissatisfied, he knew that he was indeed not the opponent of this somewhat down-and-out veteran. Similarly, in a short time, he met two top masters in a row. This sense of frustration that was inferior to himself also inspired Taishi Ci's competitive spirit.
The eyes that looked at Huang Zhong became particularly sharp. Huang Zhong stood up neither arrogant nor humble, his plain eyes shrank slightly, and he also had a bad premonition in his heart, as if he was staring at by a poisonous snake. The hairs behind him unconsciously stood up, and the aura of the top strong man on his body was quietly revealed.
Taishici suddenly smiled with satisfaction, as if staring at the beast that had fallen into the trap: "You are Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng?"
Huang Zhong hesitated for a moment, and nodded and responded: "That's right, I wonder what instructions the general will give to call his subordinates?"
"Is your military position the chief of the village?"
“That’s right!”
"But I think you are a rare brave general. Why are you just a small garrison leader? But you are afraid of death and will not move forward when fighting?"
"In the battle, my subordinates never take a step back without getting the military order!" Huang Zhong replied coldly. He couldn't help but feel a little resentful. The reason why he could never get promoted was that he would not curry favor with his superiors. Of course, it was because his money was used to treat his son, and he had no money to curry favor with his superiors.
"That must be because you are arrogant and proud in the army, so you are excluded and suppressed by your colleagues!"
"My subordinates are as close as brothers and have never been excluded and suppressed!"
"That is that you have high self-reliance and are not respectful to your superiors, so you are not happy by your superiors?"
Huang Zhong stopped talking, and this question was difficult to answer. The answer was because he couldn't curry favor with his superiors, so he seemed to be a villain who spoke bad things behind his back. However, if he didn't talk about this reason, he could not refute Taishici's accusations. So Huang Zhong didn't know how to answer.
Taishi Ci smiled secretly. There is only one reason why a capable person like Huang Zhong cannot stand out in the army no matter where he is. Because he has a jealous boss.
"Haha, I won't speak anymore, that's why I'm not wrong! However, my lord told me that there are no unqualified soldiers in this world, only generals who can't use people. Therefore, I will give you another chance, are you willing to serve in my guard?"
Huang Zhong was stunned. Then he understood Taishi Ci's thoughts and looked at Taishi Ci with a little surprise. He seemed to be moved, but then he shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, General, I am still willing to return to Changsha to work!"
Taishici looked at Huang Zhong in confusion. Seeing that Huang Zhong looked firm, it was not like a strategy of pretending to swear to raise his value, he couldn't help but frown. Huang Zhong was a talent that his elder brother had designated to secretly win over, and he had confirmed just now that Huang Zhong's top warrior's strength is unquestionable, so Taishici could not let the big fish in front of him slip away no matter what.
"Oh? Can I know the reason?"
Huang Zhong hesitated for a while, and finally sighed: "It's nothing more, it's just because his subordinates' home is in Changsha, so his subordinates cannot leave Changsha!"
Taishici frowned even more. What is the reason? My family is in Changsha? Can't I move? Or Huang Zhong has a very important local plot? If this is the case, even if Huang Zhong has great skills, wouldn't he be a hen who guards his family, and he will only wander around at his doorstep. No matter how powerful he is, he is still a waste.
"What do you mean is that you have the difficulties of not being able to leave Changsha and relocate your family?"
Huang Zhong smiled bitterly, and saw Taishi Ci waiting for his answer persistently, he had to express his difficulties.
"Yes, I have only had one son for many years, but this son is weak and has been seeking medical treatment everywhere. My family's income is almost all spent on treating my son. Zhang Ji, the prefect of Changsha, is a famous doctor in the world, so his subordinates cannot leave Changsha!"
Taishici's eyes rolled and he understood the key point: "You mean Zhang Ji can't cure your child's disease immediately?"
"Yes, I can only control it. Zhang Taishou means that this disease may not be done by humans, but I still want to continue to let Taishou Zhang use medicine and stones, so my subordinates cannot leave Changsha."
"Huang Zhong, you are not in Changsha now. I want to come to your family to take care of your children. Isn't this reason valid?"
"General, I understand your thoughts. I'm afraid I'm not just trying to let me play in the guards. I'm afraid I hope I can play in Miyun under General Pingbei, right? Therefore, I refused. I can't leave Jingzhou, otherwise my family will be excluded and bullied. At that time, I will not even be able to continue my life. How can I still ask for medicine for my son's medical treatment?"
Taishi Ci thought about it and asked with a smile: "So Zhang Taishou has there any way to completely cure your child's illness?"
Huang Zhong looked up at Taishi Ci in surprise, and asked the answer: "Why do generals be obsessed with subordinates? The general doesn't know much about subordinates, right? Perhaps, the cost of healing my child is very expensive. Don't the general mind?"
Taishi Ci shook his head: "I believe in my own vision. Huang Zhong, although you try your best to cover up, you must be the top eight-level strongman. Do you need me to repeat the value of an eight-level strongman? I can understand why you are still unknown until now. Because of your child, you have no desire to pursue fame and fortune at all. Therefore, no matter how high the price is, if you can, you will naturally heal your child first, so that you will do your best to your lord."
Huang Zhong looked at Taishi Ci carefully for a while and finally made up his mind to say, "Premier Zhang Zengyan, my child's illness is not something that can be done by human power, so it naturally requires abilities beyond the range of human power. According to my inquiries from many sources, it seems that the immortal elixir can be cured of all diseases, such as the legendary "Jiutian Yulu Pills" and "Shensheng Regeneration Pills" may be effective, but those things are illusory existences, so how can they be found? I have been searching everywhere for the past ten years, and there has been no definite news."
Taishi Ci thought about it and had never heard of these elixirs. Since Huang Zhong deliberately inquired, neither of them had any news. If the lord asked for it, it would probably be very misty. Instead of doing this, it would be better to see if he could use the chips in his hand to impress Huang Zhong.
"So, I am bluntly speaking, has the prefect Zhang ever said that when can he maintain your child's condition?"
This question made Huang Zhong's eyes dark. Obviously, the answer was very unoptimistic.
"At least two years! There will be no other accidents, alas."
Taishi Ci also sighed secretly. For the sake of his child, this man who could have become famous all over the world has been unknown for half his life, and may continue to waste his time. He is really a love affair with a hero!
After a moment of silence, Taishici took out a brocade scroll from the package and placed it on the desk in front of him. Huang Zhong looked at Taishici's solemn movements in surprise, not knowing what this small scroll was.
"Huang Zhong, if I can do better than Zhang Taishou, that is, there is a way to continue your child's life for longer, can you guarantee that you will be under my lord's command in the future and swear that you will never betray?"
Huang Zhong raised his head and looked at Taishi Ci strangely. This statement was naturally very attractive to Huang Zhong, but if you seriously investigate this statement, it included some coercion, which made Huang Zhong, a top warrior, feel a little uncomfortable. However, Huang Zhong also knew that this matter was something you want and I would like to do. If I disagree, I would not be able to do so.
It is better to say it is a transaction than to say it is coercion. However, this transaction is just to sell yourself for the rest of your life. The only question is whether you are willing to exchange your life for your son’s chance to survive longer. That’s all!
Taishici did not urge Huang Zhong, allowing Huang Zhong to stand in front of him and slowly consider it. Taishici believed that Huang Zhong would definitely surrender in the end, otherwise Huang Zhong would not be Huang Zhong now. He might have achieved success and fame long ago. Since he could sacrifice so much for his son, he would definitely continue to sacrifice.
Although Taishici's doing this seems a bit unauthorized, Huang Zhong will definitely thank him in the future. No matter what, letting Huang Zhong compete with his elder brother can not only make Huang Zhong become successful without wasting all his good efforts, but also make his son live longer and even completely healed. You must know that his elder brother is very capable of making some strange things.
Like the scroll in my hand, the library that my sister said was being built in the Xilin Academy, and there were more strange things in the auction house. No matter what, it would be more efficient to find it with the ability of a big force than Huang Zhong who struggled to find it alone.
Huang Zhong thought for a long time, finally raised his head and asked with a complicated expression: "General, do you really have a way?" (To be continued...)
