Panhorn sheep stewed with mushrooms, which is a famous dish popular in the north of the mainland, is rarely seen in ordinary times, and is specially used to entertain distinguished guests.

The reception room was spacious, with a large cauldron in the center of the round dining table, and through the swirling steam, you could see that it was filled with fist-sized pieces of meat and piled up like a hill of mushrooms.

Niu Weizhan was very enthusiastic, he took Niu Weifang's hand and walked to the table and sat down: "Second brother, we haven't been together for a long time." Yesterday I took someone up the mountain to catch a few arricorn sheep, and by the way, I picked some mushrooms, and while they were fresh, we had a good meal and some wine. ”

Niu Weifang didn't believe in this kind of polite rhetoric, he smiled and nodded slightly, but his eyes kept glancing at Niu Yanfang, who was sitting diagonally opposite.

He hadn't forgotten what happened in Thunderhorn City last time, and he didn't think Niu Yanfang was a forgetful woman.

"What are you staring at the third sister all the time? She doesn't have flowers on her face! Niu Weizhan laughed and played a round game: "There are no outsiders today, they are all their own people." Come on, come on, don't be idle, move your chopsticks! ”

Niu Yanfang felt that Niu Weifang obviously distrusted her, she stood up, picked up the wine glass, and said sincerely and with a little grievance through the pot in the middle: "Second brother, what happened last time was my fault, but you have to think about it for me!" ”

This sentence was very practical and dispelled most of Niu Weifang's concerns. He pondered for a moment, took a sip of the cup, and said with a smile: "Second brother doesn't blame you, in fact, it is difficult for Ah Hao to be caught in the middle." Third sister...... I know you're looking for a good one, but the problem is that Hao is married. ”

"Today, our three brothers and sisters have a gathering, so don't mention him again." Niu Yanfang drank all the wine in the cup, a smile appeared on her face, and she said coquettishly: "Since you have spoken, second brother, I will listen to persuasion honestly." But you have to promise me to help me find a good man to marry. ”

"Okay! No problem. Niu Weifang's mood suddenly became comfortable, and he felt that he didn't need to be caught in the middle, so he smiled and nodded in agreement.

He made up his mind to marry Tianshuang as his wife, and naturally it was impossible for his sister to mess around and make everything come to naught. It would be better for Niu Yanfang to take the initiative to back down, and Niu Weifang also sincerely considered who was suitable to be his new brother-in-law.

"My family didn't have an overnight feud, and it's not a big deal at all." Niu Weizhan, who had a bold temperament, picked up a large piece of cooked mutton from the pot and put it into Niu Weifang's bowl: "Second brother, taste it while it's hot, this is my craft." ”

"Oh, this has to try!" Niu Weifang smiled and reached out to grab the piece of meat and took a big bite.

He didn't notice that the eldest brother and the third sister quickly exchanged glances.

Seeing that Niu Weifang was eating happily, Niu Weizhan picked up the spoon again, added him a spoonful full of mushrooms that had absorbed the soup, and asked tentatively: "Second brother, next month is the big court, do you have any ideas?" ”

These words had an alternative meaning in Niu Weifang's mind. He glanced at Niu Weizhan who was sitting on the side, put down the uneaten mutton in his hand, picked up the wet towel placed next to the chopsticks and wiped his hands, and smiled politely: "What can I think?" It's not just according to the rules left by the ancestors, just do what you want! ”

Niu Weizhan's smile remained unchanged, but his eyes were slightly cold: "Second brother, there are a lot of people who support you!" I heard that the reason why you want to marry Niu Tianhao's sister is because you want to get the vote of the Lei Niu Ministry? ”

"This ...... Not exactly. His heart was exposed, and Niu Weifang looked a little embarrassed. He smiled wryly: "Actually, big brother, you are also very good, and many people in Black Corner City support you." Compared to you...... Well, I'm nothing at all. ”

"Hehe, that's not necessarily." Niu Weizhan's smile revealed a hint of danger: "Second brother, you still have a lot of ideas, and you have fallen in love with Niu Tianhao's sister early." ”

Hearing this, Niu Weifang, who was holding a mushroom into his mouth with chopsticks, suddenly stopped and asked suspiciously, "Big brother, what do you mean by this?" ”

"The current Lei Niu Department is not what Niu Weibang was when he was in power." Niu Weizhan put away his smiling face and became serious and gloomy: "There were only a few of them at that time. Two hundred thousand? Or 400,000? Now, after several major battles, it has exceeded one million at once. ”

Niu Weifang couldn't figure out the situation, and he didn't understand what the other party wanted to express, he simply put down his chopsticks, and didn't want to anger Niu Weizhan, so he could only echo his words and nodded slightly: "Ah Hao is very capable, he is the most suitable candidate for the patriarch of Lei Niu." ”

"So you've been secretly dealing with him from the beginning, colluding with each other?" Niu Weizhan's words changed abruptly, and a trace of ruthlessness was released in his eyes.

Niu Weifang's heart froze, he sat up straight, and shook his head vigilantly: "I don't understand what you're saying." ”

"Last year, that is, at the last big court meeting, we had a good chance to divide up the Lei Niu Division. There are 200,000 people in my name alone, and you're about that number. But the result? Niu Weizhan sneered gloomily: "You and Niu Tianhao have reached an agreement privately to support him to become the acting patriarch of the Lei Niu tribe at the Great Court Meeting." ”

Niu Weifang was very surprised, and he flatly denied it: "Big brother, where did you hear these things?" This is nothing short of a fabrication. ”

"I'm not talking nonsense." Niu Weizhan stared at him: "I remember very clearly, the votes at that time were three to three, Yuan Meng, Zongyu, and the great masters were on his side; I, Ling Xiao, and Zhenfeng asked for the Lei Niu Department to be split. You cast a crucial vote, and Niu Tianhao, that bastard, became the patriarch. ”

Niu Weifang finally understood what was going on. He was no longer surprised, and his expression became solemn: "I just did what I was supposed to do." Ah Hao is an excellent person, and he has proven to be a qualified patriarch. ”

"Come on! Say less useless pretty words. Niu Weizhan didn't believe this at all: "If it weren't for your private collusion, would you give up such a big piece of fat as 200,000 civilians?" Also, Niu Tianhao's sister is so ugly, you are actually willing to marry her. Isn't this secretly helping each other, you give him status, and buy him to vote for you at this year's court meeting? ”

"Not really." Niu Weifang kept shaking his head: "Big brother, listen to me, I really like Tianshuang, and this matter has nothing to do with Ah Hao." ”

"Do you think I'm going to believe you?" Niu Weizhan showed a hideous face: "That woman is extremely ugly." I asked the third sister, and I also asked the big teacher, even if the third sister would lie to me, the big teacher would not lie on this issue. Hehe...... It's skinny! Third child, I didn't expect your taste to be quite unique, and even this kind of woman that no one wants is picked up like a baby. You are cruel to yourself, and even more cruel to me. You are planning to get the throne by any means! ”

"I didn't!" The continuous groundless accusations finally stimulated Niu Weifang to burst into rage. He suddenly stood up from his chair and glared at Niu Weizhan angrily: "I sat here to eat meat and drink wine with you when you were your eldest brother, but I didn't expect you to say such a thing." I admit that during the Great Court Meeting last year, I did have the idea of wooing Ah Hao. But that's in a fair and equitable way, with everyone's participation. There is no conspiracy between me and Hao, and there is no so-called collusion. He is my friend and an important auxiliary to the future king of the Ox Clan. ”

"As for the frost...... At the beginning, I did think of forming an alliance with the Thunder Cow in the form of marriage. But then I changed my mind, she is actually very beautiful, there is a special beauty, not at all what you think ......"

Niu Weizhan interrupted him and sneered: "A stinky woman is said to be the truth, I don't think you have the sense of honor that the royal family should have, you are simply willing to degenerate." ”

"You are not allowed to insult my future wife!" Suddenly, Niu Weifang erupted in shocking rage, he pointed at Niu Weizhan and roared loudly: "Take back what you just said, and apologize to me immediately, otherwise I will kill you!" ”

Niu Weizhan and Niu Yanfang didn't speak, they stared at Niu Weifang with cold eyes, as if they were looking at a toy, a burlesque actor.

Half a minute-long cold scene.

An unpleasant feeling quickly rose from the bottom of his heart, Niu Weifang calmed down, and realized that something was wrong with the situation, he frowned and thought for a few seconds, then pulled out his chair and turned around and walked towards the door.

Niu Weizhan is a person with a rough temperament and is easily provoked. Although they are brothers, the two of them often fight from childhood to adulthood, and you fight for many things. Strange today, he didn't make much noise the whole time, and he didn't flip the table as usual.

Also, when the two brothers get together, Niu Yanfang never takes the initiative to participate. But here she is today...... Many doubts made Niu Weifang feel weird, and he couldn't tell what was wrong, so it was best to leave as soon as possible.

Just a few steps away, a sharp pain emanated from the abdomen.

Niu Weifang instinctively covered his stomach with his hands, but he couldn't prevent the pain from intensifying, like his intestines being hung by some kind of hard object, tensing up a little bit as he rotated, as if he might break at any time.

"Ahh

He screamed, bent his knees, fell to his knees, and then lay on his side, rolling and struggling in pain.

"Guards...... Help me...... Someone......" Niu Weifang's face turned pale, his hands covered his abdomen, and shouted with all his might.

Niu Weizhan left the chair and slowly walked closer, he bent down and squatted, looking at his younger brother with layers of cold sweat on his forehead up close, and a cruel sneer gradually appeared on his face.

"Don't scream, they can't hear you. Do you think I'm going to leave them out and let them in to help you at a time like this? I arranged another feast for them, with wine and meat, far from here. Rest assured, it's all my people out there. ”

The intense abdominal cramps made the nerves tense, and Niu Weifang felt a churning in his body, as if a fire was burning, and his internal organs and blood were boiling. He tilted his head with difficulty, his out-of-control lips open: "...... You...... They...... Won't let you go. ”

At this moment, Niu Weizhan felt very enjoyed, and all the desires that had been suppressed for a long time burst out in an instant, and he couldn't help but feel the urge to pick up his fist and smash his biological brother's head.

But he held back.

It's not necessary to do so, and it will also cause trouble for yourself. Although Niu Yanfang's plan is not perfect, it has a very reasonable explanation———— no one can find fault with the poisonous fungus by mistake.

Niu Weifang covered his abdomen with both hands, lying on the ground in pain and rolling constantly. He felt a spasm in his stomach, all the muscle fibers in his body were twisting, and a large amount of sweat oozed from his violently convulsed facial skin, and he screamed in despair and pain: "You...... You guys...... What the hell did I eat? ”

He is not a fool, things have come to this point, seeing Niu Yanfang, who has been standing behind Niu Weizhan, he has already understood that it is the two of them who have joined forces to deal with him.

Niu Weizhan's eyes were full of raging pleasure, a feeling of truly controlling power in his hands ran through his whole body, stimulating the pituitary gland to secrete a large number of hormones, trembling slightly in the unprecedented excitement, and even the smile was much more hideous than usual: "The taste of mushrooms is very delicious, this is fresh in the mountains." Enjoy, second! ”

"Why are you doing this?" Niu Weifang felt that death was approaching, he curled up and groaned in pain: "Big brother...... I...... I'm your own brother......"

This sentence did not save Niu Weizhan from being crazy and cruel, and his smile became even more weird. Leaning down and leaning in to a position only a dozen centimeters away from the tip of Niu Weifang's nose, he made a low and hoarse final announcement.

"Second child, your son is still young, and it's a waste to keep him. Don't worry, I'll let him go down to accompany you so you won't be lonely. ”

Unparalleled horror surged out of the depths of Niu Weifang's mind, and his eyes widened to the extreme, staring at Niu Weizhan in disbelief, and the pain was forgotten at this moment. If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he wouldn't have believed that this was his brother-in-law who had lived together for decades.

“…… You're a devil. The corners of Niu Weifang's mouth flowed white foam, mixed with a trace of bright red blood, at first glance, it looked like he had squeezed too much toothpaste and brushed his teeth without rinsing his mouth with water, and a large amount of foam was accumulated at the corners of his lips.

With the last of his strength, he cursed: "You...... Come to a sticky end...... Jinni...... I won't let you go......"

Niu Weifang died.

His eyes, which remained wide until his death, were filled with shock, fear, anger and regret. The final image is firmly fixed on Niu Weizhan and Niu Yanfang, the two of them are one in front of the other, although their expressions are different, they can clearly see the greedy component.

Niu Yanfang quickly flashed out from behind Niu Weizhan, ran to Niu Weifang's corpse and squatted down, put her fingers horizontally on the underside of the deceased's nostrils, and carefully observed his pupils. This is the "technical work" that Niu Yanfang learned from the elders in the clan, which can accurately judge whether a person is really dead.

"He's dead." Niu Yanfang quickly came to a conclusion.

Niu Weizhan nodded contentedly: "According to what we discussed before, you call people from outside in, what about me...... Hey, hey, hey, hey......"

With a sinister smile, he turned and walked to the table, grabbed the table with both hands, and lifted the whole table with all his might.
