Chapter 592: Two Jars of Wine
In the evening, Huo Hua took four or five rudder brothers to carry two large vats to the Hongmen helm.
Because Huo Hua was the helmsman of the Hongmen rudder, and he was the cousin of the master of the Hongmen Gate, Huo Xiangtian, he took a few people into the Hongmen Castle and was not stopped by the guards outside.
All the way into the Hongmen headquarters, with the benefit of Howar, four or five people carried the two large tanks directly to the conference hall.
In the conference hall, Huo Xiangtian was discussing with Great Elder Duan Tianya, and when he saw Huo Hua coming in with four or five people carrying two large vats, Great Elder Duan Tianya asked suspiciously: "Master Huo, what are you doing here?" ”
Huo Hua smiled and said, "Good thing." ”
Huo Xiangtian frowned slightly, a little displeased, "Don't sell it, hurry up." ”
Huo Hua sneered, pointed to the two vats, and said, "Door master, don't you know what is in these two vats?" This is a high-quality old wine that I have treasured for more than ten years, and I originally planned to treasure it until our eldest nephew got married, but you have no heirs......"
Speaking of this, he paused, showed a bitter smile on his face, and said: "Now it doesn't make much sense for this wine to be buried underground, just because of this Lin Tao brother's great increase in cultivation, one is to celebrate his great progress, and the other is to apologize to him, I have done something that can't help him before......
"Why did you offend Lin Tao?" Huo Xiangtian squinted at Huo Hua.
Huo Hua laughed dryly, and hurriedly said: "Little misunderstanding, small misunderstanding, it's already been said......"
"Master Huo Helm, why are you so generous this time, take out all the good wine that has been buried in the ground for more than ten years and share it with everyone?" Great Elder Duan Tianya asked with a smile on the side.
Huo Hua sighed and said: "Hongmen has now reached the critical moment of life and death, and foreign races may attack our Hongmen at any time. ”
"Nonsense!"
Huo Xiangtian frowned and reprimanded: "Now if so many brothers from Hongmen are allowed to drink, in case the alien race suddenly calls, will everyone be drunk to resist the alien race?" ”
"Door master, it shouldn't be such a coincidence, right?"
The grim color on Huo Hua's face flashed, and he looked at Huo Xiangtian with a smile on his face and said.
"Of course it can't be such a coincidence, where are there so many coincidences in the world!" Lin Tao's voice suddenly came from the door of the conference hall.
Everyone looked at Lin Tao.
Lin Tao walked in with a smile, stood next to the five brothers who carried the wine vat, sniffed the wine with his nose, squinted his eyes and sighed: "Good wine, it's really fragrant." ”
"Brother Lin Tao, ...... last night"
"Was there anything wrong last night?"
Lin Tao saw that Huo Hua was about to apologize, so he deliberately interrupted him.
Huo Hua was slightly stunned, then came to his senses, smiled, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just want to ask, how was the wine last night?" ”
"It's definitely worse than these two cylinders."
"Then you drink a little more tonight, hehe......"
"Such a good wine, of course you need to drink a little more, right, Lord Huomen?" Lin Tao looked at Huo Xiangtian.
Huo Xiangtian hesitated a little, "In case this wine is drunk, the alien race really calls, then our Hongmen can ......."
Lin Tao glanced at Huo Xiangtian angrily, and said, "How can there be so many in case, the aliens don't know that we will drink tonight, don't worry, just let the brothers drink less." ”
Huo Xiangtian hesitated for a moment, and it was not easy to refute Lin Tao's face, so he nodded with a wry smile and said, "Okay, then listen to you, let the brothers taste this wine in the evening." ”
Huo Hua was secretly happy in his heart, and said quietly on the surface: "Then I will ask the brothers to carry these two jars of wine to the kitchen, and we will add more food to the brothers in the evening." ”
"Go, remember to make more delicious food in the kitchen, the people below have been working hard recently, always be vigilant against foreign invaders, get them more delicious food, so that they can have the strength to resist foreign races." Huo Xiangtian instructed Huo Hua.
Huo Hua nodded and said with a smile: "I'll go to the kitchen and order......"
After Huo Hua led the five brothers who carried the wine vat to leave, Huo Xiangtian looked at Lin Tao with a smile and said, "Lin Tao, are you hungry for wine?" ”
Lin Tao's face sank and said, "Do I have it?" ”
Huo Xiangtian saw that Lin Tao's face was wrong, the smile on his face gradually converged, and he said suspiciously: "Lin Tao, is something wrong?" ”
Lin Tao looked at Huo Xiangtian, then at Duan Tianya beside him, frowned and said, "Didn't you find that Huo Hua was very abnormal today?" ”
"Anomaly?" Huo Xiangtian was puzzled and said, "What's wrong?" ”
"Yes, I don't see anything abnormal about Lord Huo Helm!" Duan Tianya said one after another.
Lin Tao was stunned for a moment and said seriously: "Didn't you find that there was a problem with those two jars of wine?" ”
Huo Xiangtian looked surprised, "What's the problem?" ”
"The wine is drugged!"
Lin Tao said with a gloomy face.
"This ...... How is this possible! Duan Tianya looked surprised.
Huo Xiangtian directly sank his face, "Lin Tao, this kind of thing is not easy to talk nonsense!" ”
After all, Huo Hua is Huo Xiangtian's cousin, Lin Tao said this about Huo Hua, Huo Xiangtian was still quite unhappy in his heart.
"Am I talking nonsense?" Lin Tao sneered: "Do you know what he did to me when he invited me to his house last night?" ”
Huo Xiangtian and Duan Tianya both looked at Lin Tao without saying a word.
Lin Tao continued to take care of himself: "He teamed up with his wife Zhou Xiuyun to give me sweat medicine!" ”
"Won't it?" Duan Tianya was surprised and said, "Why did he do this? ”
"Why?" Lin Tao joked: "Of course, it's for the cultivation stone on my body!" ”
Duan Tianya's eyes were gloomy, "What you said is true?" ”
"I'm not even interested in the position of your Hongmen master, is it necessary for me to lie to you?"
Huo Xiangtian said: "Since you said that you were stunned by sweat medicine, how can I see you standing here intact?" ”
Lin Tao said: "That's because I can't be poisoned, I won't be poisoned at all, and my master is a miracle doctor, whether he is poisoned or not, I can smell it when I smell it." ”
Hearing Lin Tao say this, Huo Xiangtian lowered his head with a complicated expression, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Duan Tianya's face was also uncertain, looked at Lin Tao, and said, "Is there any evidence to prove it?" ”
Lin Tao looked at Huo Xiangtian and said, "If Master Huo doesn't believe it, we might as well give it a try!" ”
Huo Xiangtian raised his head and looked at Lin Tao, "How to try?" ”
Lin Tao said: "I'll go to the kitchen with Elder Duan now, and then branch Huo Hua and let him come to you, you can help us delay him for a while, whether there is poison in the wine, let's just find a domestic animal and try it." ”
Duan Tianya nodded and said, "This method is feasible!" ”
Huo Xiangtian sighed lightly and said, "Then do as you say, I still can't believe that Huo Hua will betray me, I can't figure it out, what reason does he have to betray me!" ”
Lin Tao said indifferently: "Interests are ......."
……
When Lin Tao and Duan Tianya rushed to the kitchen in the backyard of the ancient castle, they saw that Huo Hua was directing the five people to carry the wine jar to the kitchen, and when he saw Lin Tao and Duan Tianya coming, he walked towards Lin Tao and Duan Tianya, squeezed out a smile, and asked, "Why did the two of you come here?" ”
Lin Tao said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Let's tell the people in the kitchen that they can't drink such a precious wine." ”
Duan Tianya on the side looked at Huo Hua without a smile and said, "Lord Huo is looking for you, you should hurry up." ”
"Huh?"
Huo Hua was puzzled: "What is the door master looking for me?" ”
"I don't know, you can ask for yourself." Duan Tianya said indifferently.
"But this side ......"
"With us watching here, Brother Huo, you can go with confidence." Lin Tao smiled slightly.
Huo Hua frowned slightly, but soon his brows stretched, nodded towards Lin Tao and Duan Tianya, and then walked towards the council hall.
After Huo Hua left, Duan Tianya broke away from the five rudder people brought by Huo Hua, and then looked at Lin Tao and said, "Let's try it quickly, I'm afraid it won't be long before Huo Hua will have to come back." ”
There happened to be chickens and fish bought in the kitchen, and when he saw that an obese chef in a chef's uniform was about to kill chickens, Lin Tao hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said, "The chicken is borrowed for use." ”
Lin Tao and Duan Tianya got a live chicken, and then poured a small glass of wine from the wine tank to the live chicken, the two waited on the side for a while, seeing that the live chicken was still in good spirits, Duan Tianya frowned slightly, and said, "Lin Tao, could you be mistaken?" ”
"Impossible, absolutely can't be wrong, I will know if there is poison in the wine as soon as I smell it!"
Duan Tianya said: "Could it be that this poison is ineffective on livestock?" ”
After a pause, he looked fierce and said, "Do you want to find someone to try?" ”
"No, a human life, how can it be so easy to let him be cut off!"
Duan Tianya said: "Compared to the fate of Hongmen, a human life is nothing. ”
Lin Tao couldn't help but slander in his heart, "What you said is so high-sounding, why don't you test the poison yourself?" ”
"I'm 100% sure that this wine is absolutely poisonous, and I don't need to find someone to try it, but I don't know what the ingredients of this poison are for the time being."
Duan Tianya said: "Although I had opinions about you before, but I am on your side in this matter, I believe that there is no need for you to lie to us, you are not even the master of the Hongmen Gate, so why lie to us." And I have long felt that Howard has a different heart, his mind is not as simple as before, and his eyes reveal greed......"
Lin Tao said with a straight face: "Since the Great Elder believes in me, then for the fate of Hongmen, can you cooperate with me?" ”
"How do you want me to cooperate with you?"
Lin Tao smiled and said, "Come here with your ears, I believe I will listen to you." ”
……
The two returned to the conference hall, Huo Xiangtian was talking to Huo Hua, and when he saw the two of them coming in, he said to Huo Hua: "You have nothing to do, you go and get busy." ”
Huo Hua nodded, turned around to look at Lin Tao and the Great Elder, and walked towards the outside of the council hall.
Lin Tao deliberately waited until Huo Hua walked to the door of the council hall and said to Huo Xiangtian: "Master Huo, I have already checked, the wine is not poisonous, I made a mistake!" ”
Huo Hua walked to the door and vaguely heard what Lin Tao said to Huo Xiangtian, with a smug and gloomy smile on his face.
Huo Xiangtian breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Lin Tao reproachfully, and said, "Fortunately, I went to check it out immediately, otherwise we would have let down Huo Hua's hard work." ”
After Huo Xiangtian said this, Lin Tao and Duan Tianya couldn't help but glance at each other, everything was silent!
