Chapter 1159: Sudden Accident
The book is picked up again.
"Come on! Drink! ”
"This matter should be a big deal, drink to win!"
"Drink to ......"
When they came to the banquet, they saw that everyone was excitedly pushing cups and changing lamps.
After they came in, the patriarch of a small family with a relatively sharp eye noticed them, his eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up, laughing and said, "Everyone, our two heroes are here, why don't you hurry up and toast them?!" ”
"Oh?" After hearing this person's words, everyone turned their heads and looked at the Yuan family masters who came in.
Then they toasted noisily, and after the head of the Yuan family was poured a few glasses, he smiled bitterly, pointed to Yuan Gongzi behind him and said: "Everyone, the old man is no longer strong enough to drink, let the old man's son drink on behalf of the old man." ”
After finishing speaking, he took the Zhou family master to his seat in embarrassment.
And the remaining Zhou Gongzi and Yuan Gongzi had no choice but to let these people drink,
After all, they are juniors, how can these elders not drink alcohol?
So, after a while, each of them drank three or four glasses, and their heads began to faint a little.
At this moment, a family head suddenly asked, as if intentionally or unintentionally: "Two virtuous nephews, how did the son of the Chen family get killed?" ”
“!!!” After hearing this, the two people, who were still a little dizzy, were shocked and immediately sobered up.
Then, Yuan Gongzi turned his head to look at the little family master who was asking, and said with a sad face: "When I was waiting to destroy Yanzhou, Zhang Yan suddenly appeared and caught me off guard?
In desperation, we can only retreat while fighting,
And halfway through the retreat, Zhang Yan and his cavalry caught up with us.
Under a big battle, we were defeated, and we could only give up some of our people and let them stop Zhang Yan, and then we continued to escape.
In the process of escaping, Brother Chen was unfortunately injured by a poisoned arrow!
The poison on that poisoned arrow was very poisonous, and after only three or five breaths, Brother Chen fell under the horse! ”
When he said this, a tear appeared in Yuan Gongzi's eyes.
After pretending to wipe away his tears, he shook his head full of grief and continued: "Originally, the little nephew and Brother Zhou planned to snatch Brother Chen's body back.
But because Zhang Yan attacked too quickly at that time, we waited for four or five counterattacks to no avail.
Seeing this, we can only give up Brother Chen's body in pain... Brother Chen, he... He... Woowoowoo......"
After saying this, Yuan Gongzi seemed to be extremely sad, covered his eyes with his big sleeves, and cried bitterly.
And Zhou Gongzi on the side was just not idle, after listening to Yuan Gongzi's words, he was also like losing some important relative, tears flowed down.
After listening to Yuan Gongzi's narration, ......the entire hall fell silent.
Those who originally pushed the cups and exchanged glasses stopped drinking at this time, and several family heads who threw themselves into the Chen family only secretly left tears of grief.
It's not that they are really sad for Chen Gongzi, but that Chen Gongzi is the future of the Chen family, and Chen Gongzi's death is a big loss for the Chen family!
For these small families who are attached to the Chen family, they are also not happy if the Chen family is damaged, so they are also very sad in their hearts.
"......" After listening to Yuan Gongzi's explanation, the head of the family who asked did not show a sad expression, but stared at Yuan Gongzi for a while, and then suddenly asked: "Among the three of you, the Chen family's equestrian skills are the best, why are you okay, but the Chen family's son was shot to death?" ”
“!!!” Yuan Gongzi, who was pretending to cry, stiffened when he heard this.
But fortunately, he covered his eyes with big sleeves, and others couldn't see the expression on his face at all, so no one could see the flaws.
After being silent for a while, Yuan Gongzi suddenly lowered his sleeves and asked loudly with anger on his face: "What do you mean by this, do you think that this Gongzi murdered Brother Chen?!! ”
"You said it yourself, the old man never forced you to say it!" After the questioner shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, he asked with a smile: "Since Yuan Gongzi has admitted that it was Chen Gongzi who you murdered, then tell me why you did this?!" ”
"Why should this gentleman be aggressive?!" Just when Yuan Gongzi was furious, Zhou Gongzi on the side suddenly asked with a cold face.
"Aggressive? How could the old man ever be aggressive? After Wanhua chuckled, he took a sip of wine and said, "Just now, Yuan Gongzi himself admitted that he murdered Chen Gongzi.
Could it be that as a member of the family alliance, the old man couldn't even ask Yuan Gongzi why he wanted to kill Chen Gongzi? ”
Speaking of this, he looked at the Yuan family master not far away with a smile, and said, "Old man, I remember that when I was waiting for the alliance, I made a rule, those who kill each other - die!" ”
"Sir, this is taking a deer out of context and referring to a deer as a horse!" After Zhou Gongzi heard this person's words, he said with disdain: "Brother Yuan was just angry just now, so he shouted that sentence.
And Mr., as an elder, actually caught Brother Yuan's slip of the tongue and refused to forgive, this is the virtue of Mr. for elders? ! ”
......After hearing Zhou Gongzi's words, the person who asked the question didn't pay attention to Zhou Gongzi, but after being silent for a while, he turned his gaze to the Yuan family master who was not far away, and asked, "Brother Yuan, aren't you going to explain?" ”
"There's nothing to explain" After taking a sip of wine unhurriedly, the head of the Yuan family said calmly: "The old man has never been to Yanzhou, so the old man doesn't know anything about this."
If you have any doubts, it is better to ask the old man's son and Zhou Xian's nephew, they know better. ”
Of course, the Yuan family master knew that this person was definitely the person sent by the Chen family master to find out the news and muddy the waters.
But the head of the Yuan family didn't take him to heart, because in his opinion, this person's status was too low to be worthy of fighting him.
So he handed this person over to Yuan Gongzi and Zhou Gongzi, which was a test.
After hearing the words of the Yuan family master, the questioner's face froze, of course he understood the voice of the Yuan family master's words,
However, although he was angry in his heart, he did not have a seizure, but turned his gaze to Yuan Gongzi from a kind and streaming, and asked with a blazing gaze: "Since the head of the Yuan family said so, then the old man asked you, Chen Gongzi really died because of a poisoned arrow?!" ”
"Of course!!" After Yuan Gongzi and Zhou Gongzi heard this person's words, they agreed in unison.
"Hahahaha......" After hearing the answers of the two of them, the questioner suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed,
Seeing this, Yuan Gongzi frowned and asked, "Brother Chen's death is a tragic event, why did Mr. suddenly laugh?" ”
"Humph!" Hearing Yuan Gongzi's words, the questioner suddenly stopped, laughed, snorted, stared at Yuan Gongzi deadly, and asked, "The old man asked you, where is Chen Gongzi's injury?!" ”
Yuan Gongzi was a little hairy by the gaze of this person's saint, and only after a little sluggishness did he stammer: "Hurt... The wound was in the chest. ”
"Chest?!" The questioner sneered and continued to ask, "How deep is the injury?" What kind of arrows? ”
"This ......" is not such a thing at all, of course Yuan Gongzi can't answer.
Moreover, he was afraid that making up one at random would make people see the flaw, so he hesitated.
And when he hesitated, Zhou Gongzi on the side stood up and replied without hesitation: "Brother Yuan was too far away from Brother Chen at that time, so he didn't really see it."
And when it was closer, it was clear that the arrow that injured Brother Chen was an ordinary iron-headed arrow, as for how deep the injury was......
I didn't know, because I didn't even have time to see it in the first place. ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" After Yuan Gongzi heard Zhou Gongzi's words, he nodded again and again, and echoed: "Although we wanted to retrieve Brother Chen's body, we didn't succeed, so I don't know how deep his injuries were. ”
"Humph! This is simply a ridiculous joke! After the questioner sneered strangely, he stared at Yuan Gongzi and said word by word: "Do you know that the old man is the grandfather of the Chen family?!"
When he was traveling, the old man handed him the heirloom, "The Treasure Armor Made of Heavenly Silk", and told him not to take it off no matter what happened!
Although that armor is only half a finger thick, it can resist the shooting of the Sidan hard bow!
At the beginning, the old man tried to shoot at a distance of less than a foot with a four-load hard bow, but the treasure armor could perfectly defend the bow and arrows, so that the wooden man was unscathed! ”
After saying this, he stared at Yuan Gongzi and Zhou Gongzi, whose faces had changed drastically, and asked through gritted teeth: "How could the son of the Chen family, who has this treasure armor, die because he has been wandering arrows?!"
Say!!! Did you conspire to kill him?!!! ”
"Nope! No!!! Yuan Gongzi, who was taken aback, shook his hand again and again with a pale face, and after taking a few steps back, he replied loudly: "He was shot by a poisoned arrow!"
As for why the armor on his body didn't work, this... This ......"
After "this" for a long time, Yuan Gongzi didn't think of a reasonable reason, and in the end he could only break the jar and say hysterically: "How does this son know!! ”
After shouting these words, Yuan Gongzi's face was a little pale and a little crazy.
Obviously, under the huge psychological pressure, Yuan Gongzi couldn't bear the pressure and was about to collapse.
"Not good!" After Zhou Gongzi on the side secretly said bad in his heart, he immediately stood up, bowed deeply to the person who asked him, and replied calmly: "Although I don't know why Brother Chen was still hit by an arrow while wearing the treasure armor, the two of us did not lie, and everything they said was true!"
If the gentleman doesn't believe me, you can ask the soldiers who have returned. ”
