Abandoned the Immortal Cultivator, returned to his hometown to farm and sing

Chapter 1119 1110. Fooled
"Stop killing!" Wu Kai shouted excitedly after hearing this. "The Way of Heaven loves life and hates killing! This is the philosophy of Taoism."

Nabhan placed his right hand on his chest and saluted Wu Kai with a smile.

This gift was not for Wu Kai, but for Changchun Zhenren who persuaded Genghis Khan to stop slaughtering his ancestors, the Arabs, thousands of years ago.

Jacques was a little out of control and swallowed hard.

Genghis Khan, the Mongol Empire, the whip of the world, whipped Europe at that time like a grandson.

Who would have thought that an Oriental could dissuade Genghis Khan?

In other words, the mysterious "jianghu" in the East has existed for at least a thousand years, and at that time it already had the strength and qualifications to talk to Genghis Khan.

Wait, there's something else. Jacques had a feeling, but couldn't remember what it was.

Wu Kai was just getting into the mood of his talk, and now there was an Arab to confirm his story, he became even more excited, and didn't pay attention to Jacques' expression, and continued to talk.

"After meeting Genghis Khan, Changchun Zhenren returned to Yuan Dadu, presided over Changchun Palace, founded the Quanzhen Longmen Sect, and took charge of the Taoist sects in the world."

"Afterwards, the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty collapsed and the Ming Dynasty was established. At that time, a legendary Taoist named Zhang Sanfeng appeared in Wudang Mountain. He was reborn from the Longmen School and founded the Wudang Xuanwu School. He practiced the Nine Yang Magic Skill and created Tai Chi and Tai Chi Sword at the age of 100. After he was 150 years old, he entered the Tao through martial arts, practiced inner alchemy, refined essence into qi, refined qi into spirit, refined spirit into emptiness, and refined emptiness into Tao. He finally became a land immortal. That is, a god on earth. From Ming Chengzu Zhu Di to Ming Xianzong, four Ming Dynasty emperors conferred him a title..."

Wu Kai presented a huge hodgepodge, mixing real history, martial arts, and legends together to deceive people.

The Arab scholar Nabhan was completely unable to keep up and felt dizzy.

Instead, Jacques felt a hint of inspiration.

"Wait, Mr. Wu, how old do you say he is?"

Wu Kai was interrupted again, feeling annoyed, and replied casually: "More than two hundred years."

"Impossible." Jacques was in complete disbelief. "It's impossible for a person to live 200 years."

Getting excited, right? Wu Kai took out his phone and searched, "Zhang Sanfeng, born in 1247, died in 1464, lived to be 218 years old."

Jacques still didn't believe it and insisted that it was just written on the Internet and was fake.

Although he is the financial sponsor, Wu Kai will not allow him to tarnish his childhood idol, and he must slap him in the face today.

"The Ming History records that Zhang Sanfeng ascended to heaven in the eighth year of Tianshun. The eighth year of Tianshun in the Ming Dynasty was 1464."

"There is also circumstantial evidence. In the tenth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, Sun Biyun was ordered to build a palace in Wudang to welcome him, and he also sent a letter to invite him. The tenth year of Yongle was 1413, and the emperor still invited him. The emperor couldn't invite a dead person, right?"

"From the Hongwu reign of the Ming Dynasty to the Yongle reign of the Ming Dynasty, there were seven invitations and five imperial titles. It is certain that so many emperors would not collude to commit fraud."

"Well, in the first year of Emperor Shizu of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhang Sanfeng was selected as a talented scholar. In the first year of the Zhongtong era, which was 1260, Zhang Sanfeng had already taken the imperial examination, so he must have been an adult."

"1260 to 1413 is 153 years old, so it's not impossible to live to 218!"

In terms of history, which country has more detailed records than China?

Although it is possible that Zhang Sanfeng of the Yuan Dynasty and Zhang Sanfeng of the Ming Dynasty are not the same person, foreigners don’t know.

Jacques was indeed fooled. There were so many detailed evidences that he couldn't help but believe it.

And, he caught that flash of inspiration.

I understand now. I understand everything. In the secret world of the East, "Jianghu", those people who practice martial arts in secret, it turns out they are also doing it for longevity. There have even been successful cases.

As for why I said again...

The same is true for the monastic orders in Europe, alchemy, the philosopher's stone, the fountain of life, and investment in medicine and life sciences, all for the purpose of eternal life...
-
No, there is one more. I almost forgot my original goal.

"Who is Jimmy Wei?" Jacques asked.

Wu Kai shook his head, his expression a little nervous. "Jinyiwei is no one. It is not a person, but an organization. It was originally the personal guard of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and later evolved into a spy organization, similar to an intelligence agency or secret police."

"I thought they disappeared with the demise of the Ming Dynasty, but I didn't expect that they are still being passed down now..."

Wu Kai was really scared about this and he was not pretending. There were too many legends about the Jinyiwei, and they were all quite scary.

Speaking of intelligence agencies, Jacques understood and immediately found a reference: "CIA?"

"This..." Wu Kai scratched his head, thinking back to the movies he had seen, and it didn't seem like the movie, "It looks a bit like the KGB."

Damn, to Europeans, the KGB is more scary.

The two were threatening each other.

Nabhan, who had been silent, spoke again, "Do they wear black clothes, wide-brimmed hats, silk scarves, and are good at torture and poisoning?"

Wu Kai heard his description and felt that it was similar and different. Black clothes? Jinyiwei wore flying fish uniforms. There were wide-brimmed hats, which seemed to be called big hats, which were worn daily. There seemed to be no scarves?

But torture is definitely right.

"The costumes are a little different, but torture is right. The Jinyiwei has its own prison, called the Imperial Prison. There are countless tortures in it. No matter if they are ministers, nobles, generals, or the strongest heroes, once they enter there, they will confess all their secrets. They will even say whatever they are told. They will sell out everything in exchange for death. The Imperial Prison is more terrifying than death."

After hearing Wu Kai's words, Jacques shuddered. It was more terrifying than death. No wonder Mr. Shi ran away as soon as he heard the name.

And himself...

He couldn't think about it, he was afraid, Jacques shuddered again.

What’s even more terrifying is that Nabhan and Wu Kai also matched each other.

Wu Kai asked Nabuhan, "How do you know about Jinyiwei?"

Nabhan replied: "In the 15th century, a fleet from the East came to the Red Sea. In Mogadishu, the locals saw Orientals dressed in similar clothes."

"Zheng He's voyages to the West!" Wu Kai replied immediately.

Nabhan smiled and said, "We call it the 'Chinese Fleet'. The History of Egypt records that in 1419 the Sheikh of Mecca received 'a hundred huge ships from the country of the Great Khan'. The country of the Great Khan is the East."

"But in Somalia, the fleet is described as 'the ships of Eastern wizards that bring rain.' They don't understand what the monsoon is," Nabhan joked.

Jacques was almost scared to death, he had experienced Luo Yihang's "witchcraft". "What did the Jinyiwei do in Somalia?" Wu Kai asked curiously. He was really interested in the records of Zheng He's voyages in the Middle East, especially the Jinyiwei, which was exciting and mysterious, and a lot of talk.

"The Chinese fleet was trading in Somalia. They brought silk and porcelain, and also a man. A king, a tortured king who looked like a nobody."

"According to local tribal records, this king was one of the people in black clothes who fought in a country called Mount Ceylon on the sea. They broke into the capital, captured the king, and tortured him. He didn't die because they wanted to take him back and present him to the emperor as a gift."

Damn, why are the records in Somalia so scary? Bringing a blood gourd back as a gift, isn't it disgusting?

However, the name Ceylon sounded familiar, so Wu Kai searched [Zheng He's Voyages to the West] and found that there was indeed a record that Ceylon was Sri Lanka. When Zheng He made his sixth voyage to the West, he destroyed that country and captured the king alive. He actually brought him back to present the captive to the court.

[50,000 troops were sent to rob He and block the way back. He then led 2,000 infantrymen to attack and capture the city from a narrow path, and captured Yalekunail, his wife, and the leader alive.]

It seems that his wife and children were all arrested and the whole family had no way to escape.

There is no mention of torture.

And on the sixth voyage to the West, he actually reached Somalia. At that time, it was called Zhubu, which is a nice name.

After confirming each other, it turned out that this job was done by the Jinyiwei.

Just after hearing about a life worse than death, I heard about the destruction of a country, two thousand people defeated fifty thousand and even attacked the city.

They even tortured the king... All Somalis think it's cruel.

Is it still possible?

Jacques took out a handkerchief and wiped his forehead, which was instantly wet with sweat.

After that, Wu Kai and Nabhan continued chatting.

Nabhan also talked about why he knew about the Jinyiwei. "When I was researching the assassination organization Barras in the Timurid Empire, I found some records that Abbas once imitated the prisons directly managed by the emperor of the Eastern Ming Dynasty, without going through the Minister of Justice... Babur, a descendant of Timur, also mentioned in his "Memoirs of Babur" that the Ming Dynasty had 'a trial organization directly under the emperor'. The two can confirm each other."

"Yes, the Imperial Prison is directly managed by the emperor and executed by the Embroidered Uniform Guard, without going through the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple." Wu Kai helped him add another confirmation.

Nabhan nodded to express his gratitude, and then said, "Through this record, I learned that there is a secret organization in the East."

"Later, in the records of Abbas I of the Third Persian Empire, it was discovered that he had tried to establish a military alliance with the Ming Dynasty to fight against the Ottoman Empire. The envoy's report mentioned that the Eastern Emperor had a secret police. And the intelligence received by Suleiman I of the Ottoman Empire stated that "the Ming Dynasty emperor had a black guard."

Nabhan couldn't help laughing when he said this.

Wu Kai also laughed. He really didn't expect that the Persian Empire wanted to form an alliance with the Ming Dynasty to fight the Ottoman Empire together.

They know a lot about the Ming Dynasty and even have records of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

They were laughing and Jacques was about to piss himself.

The Timurid Empire, the Third Persian Empire, and the Ottoman Empire, all three great empires are recorded, as well as assassination organizations...

There is no doubt about it. The Jinyiwei really existed, and they must have been famous hundreds of years ago, otherwise so many empires would not have recorded it specifically and passed it down to the present day.

There are even folk tales...

Nabhan also mentioned that "In the 16th century Syrian merchant Ibn Hajar's "Wonders of the East", it was mentioned that in the distant Eastern Empire there was a "Royal Dark Guard" that walked in the dark and was loyal only to the emperor. They were the emperor's closest guards and sharp weapons. They would fly on the roof and were good at poisoning. They were invisible and odorless. If you came into contact with them, even if your sleeves were touched, you would be poisoned. There would be no abnormality after the poisoning, but after a few days or months, you would suddenly die and the cause of death could not be found. They used this method to kill those who opposed the emperor..."

Jacques slumped down in a chair. Even through his shirt and suit jacket, one could see the sweat on his back, and his face was as pale as death.

What Nabhan said, that anything that came into contact with him would cause poisoning, but he showed no symptoms and suddenly died a few months later...

Isn't this what I experienced?

Although the oriental doctor said something about "stagnation of qi", who can tell the methods used by assassination organizations and ancient KGB? Maybe the doctor was deceived. Maybe the records in the 16th century were wrong, and it was not poisoning but myocardial infarction.

Anyway, you will die!
Wu Kai took a quick glance and gave a thumbs up in his heart.

It was not for Jacques, but for Nabhan.

This old Arab man cooperated really well and fooled that stupid foreigner.

In fact, there was no cooperation at all. Nabhan was a historian and humanist by profession. He was truly well-informed and just happened to know some of it.

This person was not arranged by Luo Yihang, it was just a coincidence...
-
Jacques' face was gloomy and he had long forgotten about etiquette, so how could he care about it?

He waved his hand and asked everyone to leave.

I sat in the conference room and couldn't help shaking.

Scared, he was really scared.

It’s strung together. It’s all strung together.

It's the same all over the world.

The secret organizations in the East that pursue immortality are also divided into camps.

The bright side, alchemy, philosopher's stone, Quanzhen sect, Wudang sect.

The evil side, making deals with the devil, black magic, witchcraft...Jinyiwei.

His provocation angered a "dark wizard", who took his life as an apology.

It's just like slapping a mosquito biting your arm to death. You don't pay any attention to it and forget about it in a few minutes or seconds.

And the mosquito died.

Jacques felt like he was that mosquito.

Poor, pathetic, indifferent...

After sitting there for a long time, Jacques called his personal assistant and said, "Tell the head office that I want to take a vacation. Book a flight ticket and a hotel. Southeast Asia, Japan, it doesn't matter where."

Then he lowered his voice and said, "I'm going to rent another private plane to go to China..."
