The weeds at the foot of the Zhenwu Temple are very strong. No matter how strong the wind or frost is, no matter how cruelly the black-hearted God destroys it, it will wither for a winter at most, and will revive again next year.
I feel that I have a lot in common with those weeds. I am ashamed to talk about my past. I miss my parents so much that I toss and turn all night, holding my chest. Maybe the violent emotional fluctuations have impacted the damaged heart veins, so that my heart hurts so much that Xiao Zhi is so scared that she pours water and rubs my chest, but it doesn't get better.
But as soon as the sun rises, I immediately get up with full blood, with two bloodshot eyes, and rush to the yard like a madman, draw a bucket of well water and pour it on myself, rub my numb and stiff face, and force a smile again.
This is what human beings are like. They are entangled with the villain of fate from birth. If you think about it carefully, whose life is not like this? There are very few happy moments. Most of the time, I feel that I have no desire to live. If I didn't have the shameless spirit of wild grass, I really couldn't live.
I have made up my mind to live like a wild grass.
Following Qingzhu's advice, I cleaned myself up neatly early in the morning. Except for the long-term fatigue that made me look like a vampire, my clothes were also neat. After careful consideration, I finally took out the business card left by Qingzhu and tried to contact this man named Fu Huicheng.
Qingzhu never knew how to write the word polite in front of me. Naturally, I didn't have any psychological pressure to order her people. Tianmeng is so powerful that a pair of gold earrings that my parents sold somewhere ended up in their hands. It must not be difficult for them to help me find a person with a strange disease in the huge city of Taiyuan.
With this in mind, I dialed the number on the business card. A lazy man answered the phone. He seemed to have just woken up and spoke in a daze. It was not until I mentioned the word "Tianmeng" that he suddenly woke up. He didn't even ask who I was. He just told me a time and address.
It's funny. We have been hiding under the roof of Tianmeng to make a living. As a result, now, except for Qingzhu and the woman with the fragrance of the tea flower, this is the third person from Tianmeng I know.
I left the family of three of Old Man Qi and Dahuang in Zhenwu Temple. The yajue is now busy with his own affairs. In addition, there is a Zhenwu flag in the main hall, so their safety is not a problem. The group got on the second-hand car that Zhang Xinya drove back a few days ago and headed directly to Taiyuan.
The place Fu Huicheng mentioned was not easy to find. It was in an alley in the old city, surrounded by old houses, mostly inhabited by elderly men and women. An old-fashioned two-story wooden building was tucked in an inconspicuous corner with a sly look. On the door was three large gold-plated characters "Sanpinxuan", which looked like a teahouse. Standing outside the door, one could hear someone inside telling stories with a loud voice. It seemed that the inside was not as deserted as the outside, and it should be very lively. Isn't storytelling just about gathering people?
Lao Bai stood at the door and listened for a while with his eyes closed, then said with a smile: "Siping Mountain in Xing Tang Chuan, I didn't expect that there are still people telling such a classic storytelling now. I have a hunch that Fu Huicheng is definitely a wonderful person. You can see his taste from the place he chose. He is not on the same level as you."
Brother Yaozi sneered: "If I were on the same level as you, I would deserve to go to the scrap collection station. This is what the Fourteenth Ancestor said. You deserve to stay there."
I glanced at the time. It was eleven o'clock in the morning, just right. I waved my sleeves to let them be serious, and then I walked in with my hands behind my back.
There was no reception. I followed the sound and went up to the second floor. The expected full house did not appear. It was still deserted. On the storytelling stage, an old man with gray hair and a black long gown was telling stories with great enthusiasm, spitting and flying, but he had only one audience.
It was a thin young man who looked like a monkey, with a rat-like face and rat-like eyes. He looked like a thief even if he didn't steal anything. His eyes were a little swollen. I have read a lot of medical books in recent days, and I can tell at a glance that he has insufficient kidney qi. To put it bluntly, it is a problem left by excessive indulgence. The funniest thing is that he happened to wear a loose red Tang suit, which looked like Monkey King wearing a scholar's suit. He held a bowl of cold noodles in his hand and listened to the book attentively. When he heard the exciting part, he laughed strangely, but choked himself. With a "puff", a cold noodle sprayed out of his nostrils, which was covered with bright red chili oil. His whole face turned red and tears flowed.
My face was so black that ink could be squeezed out. This gentleman was the person I was looking for. His voice was exactly the same as on the phone. Qingzhu said he could do anything. I didn't think he was a reliable character. I shook my sleeves and prepared to leave.
Brother Yaozi gently pulled me, shook his head, and his eyes were full of smiles.
I was moved. Could it be that Brother Yaozi knew this person?
At this time, Fu Huicheng finally noticed us. He shouted "Aiya", and a bright smile bloomed on his monkey face. Two golden front teeth shone in the sun. He ran to me, held one of my hands with both hands and said: "This brother is very dignified. I can feel the transcendent taste from a long distance. I guess you are Wei Jingzhe?"
I narrowed my eyes slightly.
Is this guy a tomb robber?
That's right, the thick calluses left on the palms of his hands by using the Luoyang shovel are not like this.
It seems that he is really not an ordinary person.
With a smile on my face, I said, "South or North? Tianmeng has really good teeth. They really want all kinds of talents!"
"What south or north? I'm just a poor errand boy!"
Fu Huicheng smiled and kept saying that he was a poor man. He lifted his sleeves intentionally or unintentionally, revealing a very exquisite watch. I don't know much about this thing, but I still recognize the cross logo of Vacheron Constantin...
You are so good at pretending...
I cursed in my heart and wanted to punch his two big gold teeth off.
"Sit down, brothers, sit down!"
Fu Huicheng pushed and shoved us to sit down around the small square table. Like a dead gay, he patted my hand hard and said enthusiastically: "Brother Jingzhe, I have heard of your reputation and methods for a long time. I have long wanted to meet you, but Sister Qing disagreed. Now it's good that we finally meet. It's true that there are thousands of miles of destiny to meet. Let's talk about some things slowly. I promise that we can talk about a lot together. I heard that people like you are most worried about not having channels and are unwilling to find them by themselves. As a master, of course you have to act like a master..."
I can see clearly that this guy is cunning and cunning. He probably noticed us a long time ago and naturally saw our shabby second-hand car. He immediately understood where our predicament was. He showed off his wealth to me and talked about all sorts of things. This is to find business for himself. He is thinking about us selling some old things for him.
However, this cunning person was indeed considerate. While greeting me, he did not forget to stand up and pour tea for others. However, he was not very hygienic. He pushed the cold noodles he had eaten in front of Lao Bai and said that the cold noodles here were good and asked Lao Bai to try them.
Lao Bai looked at the one that came out of the other person's nostrils and was still hanging on the edge of the bowl. His face turned black and he never said anything like the two of them were destined to be together again.
"There are still many opportunities for cooperation. We can sit down and talk about these slowly."
I stopped beating around the bush and said bluntly: "Tianmeng gave me your contact information. This time I have something to do with you!"
Speaking of business, Fu Huicheng immediately sat down with a serious face and said: "Sister Qing has greeted me and asked me to cooperate with you with all my strength, so brother, don't hide anything. Just say anything. Business is business, and things are things. I can tell the difference. I can do my best for Tianmeng's affairs, but I will never do my best."
This attitude surprised me a little. I thought to myself that there is really no simple character in this industry. The face is the face, and the inside is the inside. You can't really see anything through a layer of skin. After thinking about it, I didn't mention the tooth-selling thing. I told the other party directly that I wanted to find a rootless person. This person is now living in the ICU of a hospital in Taiyuan. After carefully describing the symptoms of the rootless person, I looked at him and asked: "Can this be done?"
Fu Huicheng smiled and said it was a small matter. It would be best if we could do it the first time we met. It would also let me see what he could do. Then we would have a trusting foundation for doing something in the future.
Then he stood up and said with a smile: "Brothers, you haven't eaten yet, right? The storyteller on the stage is Lao Xu, who came from Shaanxi. He makes authentic mutton soup buns. Brothers, have a meal here first, drink two pots of tea, and put it on my account. You don't have to worry about the matter. It can be solved in a meal!"
After that, he winked at the old storyteller and left on his own.
We got up early in the morning and headed here. It's already noon now, and we're really hungry. We didn't say anything and ordered a few bowls of mutton soup and some side dishes. I waited for Mr. Xu to leave before I pushed Brother Yaozi and asked, "Do you know this person?"
"I've never heard of the three names of Fu Huicheng."
Brother Yaozi smiled and said, "But I've heard of Tuxingsun. As soon as I walked in, I knew that this was the famous Tuxingsun on the road. He practiced bone shrinking skills and had two golden front teeth. There was no one else but him. Look carefully at his body shape. When have you ever seen someone with arms, waists, and thighs as thick as this? This is a boy's skill, which is very hard. When you were very young, you drilled in a very thin iron pipe. Over time, your bones were completely deformed. This skill is used to drill holes and rob tombs. Nowadays, there are very few people who practice this skill in the field of tomb robbers. He wears a wide and big Tang suit to cover up his body shape!"
"So Fu Huicheng is Tuxingsun's real name?"
I asked, "Is this person famous?"
"Somewhat of a ghost."
Brother Yaozi nodded and told me a few things about this person.
About ten years ago, there was a group of extremely fierce tomb robbers roaming around Changsha. It was said that the leader was a tomb robber, but this person should have been expelled from his master. He broke many rules and went into the tomb without caring whether the tomb owner was willing or not. He just took up his weapons and did it, even digging out the butt plugs of the tomb. The famous tomb of Wei Tuo, the king of Nanyue, was visited by this group of people. If ordinary people passed by the place where they dug graves, they would be killed. It seems that they are no longer tomb robbers seeking wealth, but a group of vicious and vicious bandits.
At that time, Tuxingsun had just started his career and was thinking about doing something big. He heard that these people were doing big things, so he found this group of people after many twists and turns. As a result, the leader, the tomb-robber, saw that he was not good-looking, and after a joke, he punched him in the face and knocked out two of his front teeth. Finally, he stripped him naked and tied him to a telephone pole.
Not long after, an interesting thing happened. The tomb of this tomb-robber was dug up, and the bones of his ancestors were hung on the eaves of his house.
Needless to say, it was Tuxingsun who did it. This grandson not only dug up the tomb of others, but also took away the two gold beads on the underwear of their great-grandmother, and then made two gold teeth and put them in his own mouth.
The tomb raider was furious and chased the grandson all over the world, but was finally led to a Han tomb. It was a tomb surrounded by quicksand. The mechanism was triggered, and a group of vicious bandits were buried alive. But the grandson was fine. The quicksand tomb mechanism was triggered, and basically there was no chance of survival, but he got out of it like a groundhog.
This was also the battle that made Tuxingsun famous. The nickname Tuxingsun was given because of this.
Later, the grandson's ways were wide, and he did everything, especially those illegal and disorderly things to make money. Once he came across an idea, he was directly targeted. More than a dozen policemen surrounded him in the hotel. The moment they broke into the hotel, the grandson disappeared. In the end, he told people that he actually jumped out of the window, which was the 27th floor!
In short, Tuxingsun made his way through the martial arts world with his extremely despicable personality and extremely outstanding skills.
However, in recent years, this grandson seems to have made enough money and is not willing to do things that require him to work hard. He introduces some business to others all day long, and he takes a cut himself. To put it bluntly, he is a broker.
"He is a talent."
I couldn't help but nod after hearing this. It is easy for the ritual officer to break the quicksand tomb. This kind of mechanism can't even enter the five elements of the Ten Thousand Burial Sutra. For us, there are many ways to deal with it, but climbing down from the 27th floor is more amazing. If I stand on the windowsill and look down, my legs will play the pipa.
Facts have proved that although Tuxingsun looks unreliable, he is very reliable in doing things. He said that he would take a meal, but in fact, he didn't even take a meal. He came back in a hurry not long after the meal was served.
"Found it, brother, you're right, this disease is indeed one in a million, the only one in Taiyuan, it's easy to find!"
Tu Xingsun smiled and slapped a folder on the table, raised his chin and said, "All the information is here, even his family's ancestors have been found out."
