Zongwu: I am playing badly in Huashan Inn

The seventh floor of the Ming capital's Tianlao.

Zhu Wusi, the Iron-hearted Marquis, sat outside the prison door.

On the table in front of him were several exquisite side dishes and a pot of fine wine.

Opposite was a dark, cold, and dry cell.

A disheveled man had heavy shackles and chains tied to his hands, feet, and even his neck. His gray hair covered his face, making it difficult to see his true appearance.

The most shocking thing was that the man's wrists were empty, without palms!

Only a thick layer of blood scabs could be seen.

The man was none other than Cao Zhengchun, the former governor of the East Factory who was defeated at Leigushan.

Zhu Wusi originally wanted to lure Cao Zhengchun to participate in the Zhenlong chess game with the Xiaoyao Sect's cultivation method.

What if Yu Huatian was also attracted by the cultivation method and went to Leigushan.

The East Factory and the West Factory just had a fight to the death.

This is what Hulong Villa hopes to see.

Unexpectedly, Yu Huatian didn't go, but Lin Fei's people did.

Not only did they get Wuyazi's Beiming Divine Art, but they also crippled Cao Zhengchun's hands.

After that, the power of the East Factory plummeted and never recovered.

Many of the East Factory's territories in the capital were taken over by the West Factory and Hulong Villa.

Cao Zhengchun himself was arrested by Zhu Wusi on the charge of treason.

Losing both hands and facing mental collapse, Zhu Wusi would not let him walk around in the court casually with such a time bomb.

"Zhu Wusi, you either lock me up for life, or, after we get out, we will kill Hulong Villa without a single piece of armor left!"

Cao Zhengchun struggled hard, and the iron chains on his body made a clanging sound.

"Winners are kings and losers are bandits, Cao Zhengchun, you have already lost. Since you lose, you have to accept your fate!" Zhu Wusi drank by himself calmly, not taking Cao Zhengchun seriously at all.

The cell was quiet for a moment, and then a sinister voice sounded.

"Zhu Wusi, don't think that we don't know what you are planning.

You have only one goal in stirring up the fight between our East Factory and West Factory, secretly supporting Ghost Villa, and winning over the strong men who have betrayed their sects and families!

To usurp the throne!"

Zhu Wusi's face was calm, with no sadness or joy in his eyes, as if he was not affected by Cao Zhengchun's words at all.

"Cao Zhengchun, I didn't expect that you are disabled and locked up in the prison, but you are still very smart.

You know the relationship between me and Ghost Manor, and my real purpose.

Yes, the current emperor is incompetent and the people are suffering. The borders are repeatedly invaded by Liao and Yuan.

Recently, even Xixia and Dali are interested in a piece of the pie.

The ancients said that the world is won by those who are capable. Ming can be ten times richer and stronger in my hands, Zhu Wusi!"

"Tsk..." Cao Zhengchun sneered disdainfully, "Throughout the ages, the traitors who have plotted to usurp the throne have all used this rhetoric, but it is just for their own sake. I just want to find a plausible excuse for my ambition."

Zhu Wusi remained unmoved and said indifferently: "So what? Now you are the one in the prison, and I am the one who is free and easy outside!

Cao Zhengchun, give me your "Wanchuan Guihai" technique secret book, and I can consider letting you go."

"Hehe..." Cao Zhengchun sneered, "I can climb to this position step by step, do you think I am a fool? After I give you the technique secret book, there is no need for me to live for you."

A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Zhu Wusi's calm face.

He stood up and walked towards the door.

"Cao Zhengchun, I want to see how long you can endure in the prison!"

Afterwards, Zhu Wusi, accompanied by the guards, walked down two floors from the seventh floor of the prison.

Ninth floor of the prison!

This floor is not like other floors, there are many cells.

There are no cells here.

The ninth floor of the prison is a big cell!

In the darkness ahead, there was a large black iron ball covered with rust.

An old man with disheveled hair and fierce eyes was tied to the huge iron ball.

"Zhu Wushi, you came to see me? Hahaha! After decades, you finally couldn't help but come to see me?"

There was no light on the ninth floor of the Heavenly Prison, and the space was filled with the stench of decay.

Zhu Wushi covered his mouth and nose and said, "Gu Santong, I'll give you one last chance to join the Hulong Villa and work for me."

"Dream on!" Gu Santong refused without hesitation, "I, Gu Santong, will never be compatible with you, Zhu Wushi, in this life!"

"If I say that Su Xin is still alive, will you still say that?"

"What?"

Gu Santong struggled hard, and the iron chain collided with the large iron ball, making a dull metallic sound.

Zhu Wusi said calmly: "I fought with you on the top of Tianshan Mountain. Su Xin was hit by my palm to protect you. You thought she was dead, so you were disheartened and willing to be imprisoned by me.

But Su Xin is not dead, she still has a breath.I will keep her alive with cardamom and freeze her under the ice pool of Tianshan Mountain.

As long as we find another cardamom, Su Xin will be able to come back to life!"

"Are you serious?" Gu Santong had been in the hellish ninth floor of the prison for decades.

After hearing Zhu Wushi's words, he seemed to return to the human world.

Zhu Wushi said: "Su Xin is the one we love in this life. How can I joke with you about her?

There is another thing you don't know? Su Xin gave birth to a son for you. In order to stop you and me from killing each other, she entrusted her son to the care of Cheng Dasao next door and rushed to Tianshan Mountain. As a result, she blocked half of your palm and fell into a coma. "

"Son, I actually have a son!" Gu Santong laughed and cried at the same time, looking very strange, "Where is my son? Where is my son? !"

Zhu Wushi said: "I don't know where your son is, I don't even know his name. If you want to find it, you should find it yourself. Why should I help you find your son?"

"Yes, yes, I will find it myself. My son, my son and Su Xin's son..." Gu Santong became more and more excited.

But after a moment, he came to his senses.

"Zhu Wushi, based on my understanding of you, you will never let me go.

Tell me, what is your purpose?"

Zhu Wushi seemed to have known that Gu Santong would ask this.

After all, the two have been friends for many years.

"I'll tell you the truth. There are three forces in the current Ming Dynasty court, the East Factory, the West Factory and my Hulong Villa.

Wei Zhongxian and Cao Zhengchun have lost their power, and the East Factory is in name only. Now only Yu Huatian and I are left to compete.

But recently, a person and an inn appeared in the world, and they have the potential to seize the world's luck and win the hearts of the people.

So I have to make plans early. Even if that person cannot be used by me, he cannot become a stumbling block on my way to becoming the emperor! "
