Chapter 169: The Chosen One
Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Chu Xingyun and Ma Ke sat at a table, and Situ Ran, who was the young patriarch, had to sit on the main seat with Situ Zhu...
But for the three people who meet every day, it's nothing!
Chu Xingyun and Marco watched the wonderful singing and dancing, while drinking fine wine and eating delicious food, feeling that this Chinese New Year's Eve is really a different flavor...
Although this wine is not as mellow as the Taoyuan brewed by Dugu Zhan, it is still very good, at least it is much better than the Moutai Wuliangye I drank before...
And the delicacy on the table is even more unique, the wine and food on each long table are the same, and there are special people to pour wine and entertain on the side...
After this lively feast lasted for more than an hour, the guests and juniors began to take turns to toast at the main table...
Marco, who was still sitting at the wine table, saw that everyone got up and took turns to go to the main house to toast, so he asked Chu Xingyun on the side:
"Brother Chu, should we go up and toast Patriarch Situ?"
"Hmm... Go, we are also thanks to the care of others during this time, so naturally we can't be rude to others, let's go! ”
Chu Xingyun said as he pulled up Marco and lined up behind the long line of toasts...
At the end of the Situ family's thirty years of wine banquet every Chinese New Year's Eve, the juniors and guests would take turns to toast and congratulate the patriarchs, elders, and elders of the clan...
This is also a tradition of the Situ family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner...
Maybe it's because I toast like this every year, and I basically form a routine, and the long queue in front of me will finish toasting in a while!
But when it comes to Chu Xingyun and Marco, it seems that this wine is a little unrespectable...
……
At the beginning, Chu Xingyun and Ma Ke happily walked up to the main table with wine glasses, Situ Zhu and Situ Ran had known each other before, and they naturally greeted each other with a smile when they saw the two of them come up to toast!
But the three elders next to them, who were a few years older than Situ Zhu, seemed to be a little unhappy, staring at the two of them with dark faces, especially when they saw Chu Xingyun smiling so brightly, their faces were as if Chu Xingyun owed the three elders a lot of money...
Seeing the unkind eyes of these three elders, Chu Xingyun was confused...
But Chu Xingyun is right to think about it, he heard Situ Ran say that in order to ask the divine doctor Zhuge Miaoshou to help save him, Situ Ran used his identity as a young patriarch to give Zhuge Miaoshou the treasure in the clan, to be precise, to lend you Zhuge Miaoshou, but the deadline for repayment was set by Zhuge Miaoshou!
In the original words of Zhuge Miaoshou, when the old man understands it, he will return it to you! Rest assured!
If others say this, they can still believe it, but it is really difficult to say it on the Zhuge Miaoshou who has a strange personality and does not play cards according to reason!
No one knows when he's willing to return it, so no one thinks it's possible to get this treasure back...
As for what this heavy treasure was, Situ Ran didn't say it, and Chu Xingyun didn't ask...
And now it seems that the three elders must be worried about this matter...
No, one of the oldest black-faced elders saw Chu Xingyun come up to toast, and asked loudly without raising his wine glass:
"You are the Chu Xingyun that our young patriarch treated with a heavy treasure?"
"Yes, exactly below!"
Chu Xingyun said neither humbly nor arrogantly!
"Good! Sure enough, it's good! You have been saved, but you have let the treasures of our clan fall into the hands of outsiders! Our young patriarch is really vigorous and resolute! ”
The black-faced elder said with an angry face!
Chu Xingyun was silent, and Situ Ran on the side also frowned tightly with an angry face...
Situ Zhu next to him saw this atmosphere, and hurriedly smiled and said:
"Elder Yi, what Ran'er did this time is also for the family, this Chu Gongzi may be the chosen one mentioned in the prophecy, so this heavy treasure is used to save his life, and it can be regarded as a good use..."
"Humph! Haven't we been looking for many of the Chosen One over the years? But who will finally complete the prophesied trial!
It's good that your father and son have not yet determined whether they are the chosen ones, so they will give away the treasure!
We used to think that you were a person who knew how to measure and elected you as the patriarch, why are you so confused this time! ”
This elder named Situ Yi said angrily, and what he said made Situ Zhu's face a little ugly!
But it seems that the eldest elder is quite prestigious in the Situ family, and Situ Zhu's face is blue, but it is not easy to attack on the spot...
"This matter started because of me, I will definitely ask Zhuge Miaoshou seniors in the future to return the treasure to the Situ family, but I don't know what this treasure is?"
Chu Xingyun didn't want Situ Zhu and Situ Ran to be embarrassed, so he said!
"Humph! I don't know what it is, so I dare to say that I can ask for it back! With your strength, how can you get it back from Zhuge Miao, one of the Ten Heroes? ”
"It's true that I'm not strong now, but that doesn't mean I'll be this kind of strength in the future! It's better to bully the pulsatilla, not to bully the poor youth!
I, Chu Xingyun, swear here, that I will definitely return the heavy treasures of the Situ family in the future, and return them to the Situ family!
If you violate this oath, you will be hit by five thunders, and there will be no place to die! ”
Chu Xingyun swore righteously, and the unequivocal and lofty momentum made the black-faced Elder Situ Yi couldn't help but be moved...
"Good! Then I hope that Young Master Chu will have the strength to do what you said in the future! ”
After a long pause, the black-faced Situ Yi raised his wine glass and said!
Chu Xingyun also raised the wine glass in his hand and said loudly:
"I'm sure there will be such a day!"
After speaking, everyone raised their glasses together, and the two drank all the wine in the glass!
After Chu Xingyun and Marco finished drinking, they stepped down and left...
The long dragon in the back still continued the tradition of the Situ family, but the people on and off the stage looked at Chu Xingyun with more respect in their eyes...
After the banquet dispersed, Situ Ran hurriedly ran to Chu Xingyun's wing and knocked on the door!
It was Marco who opened the door, and as soon as Situ Ran entered the door, he said to Chu Xingyun:
"Brother Chu Xian, don't care about what happened just now, Elder Situ Yi is one of the most prestigious elders in my clan, he has an upright personality, he was offended just now!"
"Haha, where did Brother Situ say, how could I care about what happened just now!
But what Elder Situ Yi said was not bad! In order to save me, the Situ family did lose a heavy treasure, but I still don't know what this heavy treasure is and what it is used for? ”
Chu Xingyun asked suspiciously!
"This treasure is actually related to a prophecy that our four major families have guarded for generations...
It is also an opportunity for the four major families to come to this Taoyuan Town..."
Situ Ran, Chu Xingyun, and Marco sat in the wing room, and frankly told Chu Xingyun the cause and effect of this heavy treasure, as well as the prophecy about the Chosen One that had never been mentioned to Chu Xingyun before...
Chu Xingyun and Ma Ke, who listened, were stunned and stunned on the spot!
The expressions of the two were also expected by Situ Ran, the reason why he didn't tell Chu Xingyun about this was because Chu Xingyun was decadent at that time, and he was afraid that he would scare Chu Xingyun away after saying this!
However, from today's point of view, especially during the banquet just now, after Chu Xingyun's vow, Situ Ran has fully agreed with Chu Xingyun's changes, and is ready to tell Chu Xingyun the secret that everyone in the four major families in Taoyuan Town knows...
