Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 170 Survivors and Suicides

All the officials secretly admired Chen Zhi's ability to choose the right time. Whether it was because he really couldn't hold on anymore or he was just pretending, his performance at this time was just right.

First, Chen Zhi made it clear that he did not take any credit, and was willing to share the credit so that Xu Hui and others could operate more conveniently. Then he showed his injury, and the subsequent drama could be understood without thinking too much.

I have taken out the credit, but I am still injured. It is up to the county magistrate to handle the rest of the matter. I will give Xu Hui a legitimate name to take charge. There is no need to ask for credit personally, and there is no need to worry about Chen Zhi's credit affecting him. authority and disposition.

Secondly, Chen Zhi used his injuries to show that he had achieved great results through hard work. As long as he recovered from his injuries for one day, no one would dispute his achievements. If you are not convinced, go and visit the doctor first. He worked hard and worked hard, and there is still evidence.

Isn't it wonderful to give benefits to the county governor, make it easier for others to take credit, and protect your own fruits?

Sure enough, when Xu Hui saw Chen Zhi's poor expression, he hurriedly called someone over, and personally helped Chen Zhi to the side to rest. He repeatedly asked Chen Zhi, and then reassured Chen Zhi, saying that he would take care of everything and would not let Chen Zhi suffer. All your hard work is in vain.

As he was talking, Chen Yuan and others also gathered around eagerly. Noticing Chen Zhi's pale face, these old Chens all showed worried looks.

Xu Hui said kindly: "You gentlemen, don't worry. Before I entered the building, I asked people to call in the famous doctors in the city. I will let them come and take a look."

Chen Chi, Chen Bian and others quickly expressed their thanks.

There were doctors and doctors waiting in the Wobing Building - for such a big thing, with so many wounded people, of course we had to be prepared.

However, Chen Zhi understood his situation without waiting for a doctor's consultation, and the feeling of tearing in the muscles and bones of his legs became more and more obvious.

The strengthening of the Divine Speed ​​Talisman greatly increases the strength and endurance of the legs, allowing them to perform actions that were previously impossible, such as emergency stops, fast running, and forced changes between advancement and retreat.

But similarly, strong leg strength allowed Chen Zhi to increase his speed, but in the process, he had to endure strong backlash.

"The muscles in both legs were torn a lot. The most serious injury was when I rushed to Wang Mi and forced him to retreat. His forward momentum was stopped, and he rushed in the opposite direction. He was strengthened by the speed talisman just now. , the muscles and bones of both legs were strong, and there was no obvious feeling. Now that the effect has subsided, the legs have returned to normal, and the injury has become clear."

Feeling the pain, Chen Zhi analyzed the cause, but cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

This made Chen Chi and others anxious, and they forced him to get treatment quickly.

However, just as Chen Zhi was about to leave the courtyard, someone walked out of the kitchen. This person's clothes were stained with a lot of blood, and his face was full of confusion and fear.

"Who is this person?"

Noticing this movement, everyone turned their attention to it and understood it when they saw it was a man dressed as a servant.

In the entire backyard of Wobinglou, there were nearly ten servants and cooks. Almost all of them were hacked to death. There were very few survivors, but it seemed that there was still one survivor.

"Where is my young master, how is my young master?" The man immediately called out as soon as he came out, and the young master in his mouth was Zhuge Yan.

This man was a servant of Zhuge Yan, not a confidant, but he still had some status because he could accompany him on the study tour. Seeing how he survived the disaster, the first thing that came to his mind was to ask his young master, and everyone couldn't help but praise his loyalty.

But Chen Zhi frowned, thoughtfully, but Chen Chi and others were unable to go over to inquire, so they were forcibly brought to the doctor.

There were several doctors in total. They had just finished consulting Zhuge Yan, and were immediately dragged to Chen Zhi again.

Chen Zhi's injuries were mainly strains, but during the rapid movement, the bones also suffered a lot of pressure, but generally speaking, it was not a big problem.

"This incident reminded me that after this, I might have to try to practice martial arts. I had this idea in my previous life, but I joined a force and was supported by many masters, so I gave up. The situation in this life is different. From now on, Judging from what happened today, no matter how high the martial arts skills of the guards are, there is no guarantee that they will be as useful as having physical martial arts skills."

When he had second thoughts, several doctors worked for a while, made a rough diagnosis, and reported the results to Xu Hui.

"You used too much force on your legs and your muscles and bones were damaged?" After hearing the diagnosis, Xu Hui nodded, "Chen Zhi really tried his best this time, otherwise how could he have such injuries? You are all famous doctors in Pengcheng, so you must Treat him with all your heart and let him recover as soon as possible."

"Please rest assured, Sheriff, we will do our best."

"I'm ashamed. I thought Chen Zhi was just showing off, but I didn't expect him to be really hurt."

"That's right, Wang Mi is so cruel, so many people can't hold him, how can Chen Zhi be unscathed when he fights against him."

"I'll go visit you in a few days."

After Xu Hui said this, several officials also reflected, but there were still a few people who had doubts and felt that even if Chen Zhi was really hurt, it was a sign of scheming to endure it until Xu Hui asked him about it. .

No matter what the reason was, after the news spread among the crowd, it had a considerable impact.

Pengcheng Bingyong and his disciples who were summoned heard this and couldn't help but praise Chen Zhi's loyalty. Even Zhao Xing nodded silently with admiration and asked people to tell Zhuge Yan the news.At this time, Zhuge Yan was sitting in the elegant pavilion upstairs, surrounded by servants asking for forgiveness, and everyone was in shock.

"Young master, please forgive me, it's useless for me to wait..."

The servants still had a look of fear on their faces. Although most of them were on other floors when the incident happened, if something happened to Zhuge Yan, none of them would be able to escape, and they wouldn't even be able to save their lives.

Zhuge Yan shook his head. While calming down, he frowned and asked, "How is Third Uncle injured?"

A servant replied: "The doctor said that the third master is not in danger of life, but he is seriously injured and will need to recover for a while. It's just that the injury on his left arm is too serious. It was penetrated by a spear and injured a big muscle. It may be left behind." The root cause of the disease is arm weakness, young master, you...don't be too sad."

Zhuge Yan sighed: "Third uncle came here this time. He has an important responsibility for the family. Now he is injured. I will not let him continue south. Alas, third uncle has shown his strength many times due to his bravery. Those people have no scruples." He doesn't dare to show his true identity, but Wang Mi has no such scruples. If the third uncle knew that he might not be able to exert himself in the future, I really don't know what he would do..."

As I thought about it, my face became filled with sadness.

The servant carefully reminded: "Young master, I heard that the famous doctor of the Zhang family is in Luoyang. He has the power to resurrect people, flesh and bones. If I can take the third master back in time, there may be a glimmer of hope."

"Huh? Yes!" Zhuge Yan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Maybe it's really possible, then we have to end the study tour early. Anyway, after this happened, there is no need to continue, but before that, I still have to I would like to thank Mr. Chen for saving my life first."

While talking, the informant came and brought news about Chen Zhi.

"Mr. Chen is injured?" Zhuge Yan got up quickly when he heard that, "I'll go to visit right now. The situation is urgent, otherwise I should thank you on the spot. This is a life-saving grace!"

Recalling the previous scene, even with Zhuge Yan's self-cultivation, it is inevitable that his heart will go crazy.

"Wang Mi really wants to kill me! If it weren't for Mr. Chen, my life would be over!" He sighed slightly, and there was a sense of powerlessness in his heart. In front of such murderous people, his ambition was no match for a knife, "The reason why I want to The reason for capturing me is to escape from Pengcheng. Once I escape, I will take action!"

One of the servants said bitterly: "This Wang Mi is so audacious that even you dare to touch him!"

Zhuge Yan shook his head: "It's not that simple. This matter is fishy from beginning to end. It's understandable that Wang Mi arrests me, but he doesn't say anything and just wants to kill me. There's a problem, and it's me." The guards of the Zhuge family...forget it, let these things go, the top priority is to visit Mr. Chen..."

Before he finished speaking, a voice full of sorrow suddenly came from outside the door. The servant who had survived the disaster rushed in and knelt down in front of Zhuge Yan.

"Master! Just be okay! Just be okay! The thieves are cruel and they will kill everyone they see. They are all dead!" He howled, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably, and finally fell to the ground, sobbing loudly. .

"Ji Fu, you..." Zhuge Yan recognized this person and couldn't help but sigh, "I heard about what happened in the backyard. Alas, both the people who follow me and the people sleeping in the ice building are all because of I just encountered this difficulty, and I will not care about what happens after their death. Their relatives and pensions are all the responsibility of my Zhuge family."

The servant Ji Fu cried and thanked: "Young Master is so righteous!"

"You are exhausted after going through this. Go and rest first." Zhuge Yan comforted him for a few words, and finally got out and went downstairs to visit Chen Zhi.On the way, I met Tao Ya and others again. After learning about Wang Mi's fate, I was surprised and then sighed.

"Wang Mi traveled across several states and fought several generals one after another, but was ultimately defeated at the hands of Mr. Chen. It was also fate." Zhuge Yan knew the military strategy, so he had this understanding.

But listening to his emotion, Tao Ya and others had complicated thoughts. They admired not Wang Mi, but Chen Zhi, but they also had other thoughts.

Then Wei Ou suddenly said: "Wang Mi is dead as long as he is dead. He is a thief after all. But Liu He suffered a misfortune and it is difficult to explain afterwards."

Liu He was stabbed in the neck, which was a fatal injury. Later, everyone was trapped, and no one stopped the bleeding and treated him. By the time the dust settled, he had been dead for a long time.

The death of the son of a local governor here will definitely cause a certain disturbance, but with Zhuge Yan's incident first, Pengcheng will have a shield. This troublesome matter can be settled by the Zhuge family and the court.

Zhuge Yan felt sad. He walked with Liu He all the way, talking about Taoism, and also had feelings. When he heard about his death, he couldn't help but feel depressed and felt self-blame.

"It's all because of me."

Tao Ya and others quickly comforted themselves. Zhuge Yan shook his head and said, "Don't worry, everyone. This happened because of me. There is no way to shirk it. I won't ignore it, but I won't sink into sorrow..."

"Roar!"

Suddenly, a roar came from outside the door, interrupting Zhuge Yan's words, and then he heard a thick voice shouting: "You think you can sit back and relax by killing Wang Mi and arresting me? You won't do good things like harming me." It ends so easily!"

The one who made the sound was one of Wang Mi's men. He rushed out of the building during the fight and was surrounded outside. Seeing that he was defeated, he shouted this, and then he raised his knife and committed suicide!

　Thanks to "Li Xiaoxianxian" for the reward!
