Chapter 70: Thousand Fingers

A wedding without the bride and groom loses the true theme of the wedding.

If there is no real theme, there will be other themes.

For example, the trial.

It was almost noon, but the newcomer still hadn't appeared for a long time, and the performance of the people in the Tang Sect was also a little abnormal. The fifth line already sensed that his hunch seemed to be correct. The other guests were aware of it, as they had not seen the bride and groom at all since the morning, which in itself was an anomaly.

The feast was ready, but the couple still didn't show up, so the wedding was delayed. Some of the grumpy guests were already waiting impatiently.

"Why hasn't the wedding started yet?"

"Why hasn't the bridegroom come out yet? Shouldn't you be breastfeeding in the arms of the old lady? ”

……

The people in the rivers and lakes were originally reckless men, and some people already spoke very hard words. Tang Mugong's father and son's faces were already very embarrassed, and they were waiting for the last group of disciples who went out to find someone to come back. If they still can't find anyone, there's nothing they can do.

The last group of disciples soon returned, but they still found nothing.

Tang Mugong had no choice but to face the guests at the banquet and said, "Heroes, my grandchildren and daughter-in-law have some things delayed today, and the wedding can only be postponed for a few days. ”

Many people were already a little unhappy in their hearts, but Tang Mugong was a respected giant after all, so not many people dared to collide with him in person. But not everyone is afraid to do so, because some people are here to find fault. Fan Yun is such a person, Tang Men didn't send him a wedding card at all, but he still came, but it was for another thing.

Fan Yun saw that the time was ripe, so he took the opportunity to ask: "Since the wedding has been postponed, and it happens that all the heroes on the rivers and lakes are there, then our family has a few important words, and I want to ask the master of the Tang Sect in person, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

Tang Mu said fairly: "Father-in-law Fan, please speak." ”

Fan Yun said: "I believe everyone knows that not long ago there was a shocking robbery in Qingju Mountain, and 1.5 million disaster relief officials were robbed. Because of this, Huguang may starve to death tens of thousands of people. Qingju Mountain is the sphere of influence of the Tang Sect, shouldn't the Tang Sect Lord give everyone a satisfactory explanation for this matter? ”

The words finally got to the point, and the things that many people wanted to see finally came.

Tang Mugong replied: "Tang has already sent someone to investigate this matter, and he has also found some clues, I believe the truth will be revealed soon." ”

Fan Yun sneered: "Found some clues? Our family has also found some clues, I wonder if the Tang Sect Master is interested in knowing? ”

Tang Mugong said: "Let's hear it." ”

Song Jin, the officer who escorted Guanyin, caught a robber at the time of the crime. According to the robbers, he is a disciple of your Tang Sect, and his master is Tang Siji Tang Daxia. This, how does the Tang Sect Master explain? ”

Before Tang Mugong could speak, Tang Siji took the lead and said angrily: "You are spewing blood." ”

Fan Yun said: "Don't worry, Tang Daxia. In our hands is the official document drawn by the prisoner Hong Fei, which is the evidence. Not only that, but since then, our family has lent Hong Fei to the fifth young man, and let the fifth young man talk about the future! ”

The fifth line didn't expect Fan Yun to suddenly turn the topic to himself, but the matter had come to this point, and he could only say: "Hong Fei was poisoned by an unknown person in the Taigong Mansion on Songshu Slope, and he is still unconscious. ”

Fan Yun shook his head and said, "Fifth Young Hero, it seems that you didn't say the point. You haven't said who is most likely to poison the prisoner Hong Fei, and what kind of poison is in Hong Fei? ”

The fifth line couldn't avoid it, although he still had many doubts about this matter, he still said: "When we found out that Hong Fei was poisoned, Tang Daxia happened to be at the scene, and Hong Fei was poisoned and unconscious because he swallowed a whole pack of Tang Men's throat cleansing powder." Before Hong Fei was poisoned and fell into a coma, he bit his finger and wrote two words on the wall, one of which was the word 'Mu'. ”

Fan Yun asked, "What about the other word?" ”

The fifth line replied: "Another word was not finished, Hong Fei only clicked a little, and then he didn't have the strength to write it." ”

Fan Yun continued: "Add a little bit of the word 'Mu', what does the fifth young man think it will be?" And what do you think the heroes here will be? ”

Everyone thought about it and knew the answer in a moment, but no one dared to say it, because no one wanted to offend the Tang Sect, one of the four major families.

"It's the word 'Mugong'." But there are still people who are brave and not afraid of death who speak out.

For a while, everyone was in an uproar, and almost everyone was blaming Tangmen. Even though Tang Mugong has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, he doesn't know how to answer for a while, and Tang Siji is also at a loss.

Fan Yun took the opportunity to ask: "Tang Daxia, don't you explain these things?" ”

Tang Siji knew that he couldn't wash it away if he jumped into the Yellow River, and the century-old reputation of the Tang Gate was very likely to be ruined because of himself. He couldn't deny that a lot of what the fifth line and Fan Yun said was true; He also couldn't explain why he happened to be at the scene when Hong Fei was poisoned.

His mind was in turmoil, but his consciousness was still clear. There was a tidal wave of scolding and swearing in front of him, but he didn't explain anything. He didn't give an explanation because he made a bold decision. He is a disciple of the Tang Sect, and he has the power to maintain the reputation of the Tang Sect.

If I don't get it from the ground, who gets it from the ground?

A good man dares to take responsibility after all. Although some of the responsibilities are not his, they are only necessary, and he will stand up and take them as well.

Tang Siji didn't care about becoming the sinner referred to by Qianfu, he was just afraid that the Tang Sect would be implicated because of himself, and he was even more afraid that his father would ruin his reputation because of himself at his age.

He loves the Tang Gate.

He also loved his father.

That's why he made this decision.

"That's right. I did all this, and it had nothing to do with my father and the Tang Sect, it was I who was confused and greedy for a while, so I took the official silver privately. My father and the children of the Tang Sect did not know about this matter at all, and there were no other children of the Tang Sect involved, and the people involved in this case were some friends I knew on the rivers and lakes. All the consequences of the matter will be borne by Tang Siji alone, I hope everyone will not be angry with Tang Men and my father. Tang Sijilang said.

Tang Mugong knew his son too well, and he didn't believe that Tang Siji would do such a thing at all. He didn't understand why his son didn't say a word of defense, so he took everything on himself.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Tang Mugong asked.

"Dad, you don't have to say more, I will do things by myself, and I won't let the Tang Sect be implicated."

"Phew! Obviously it wasn't you who did it, but as soon as you admit it, Tangmen has already been implicated. Tang Mugong said angrily.

But everyone could no longer hear what their father and son were saying, and the merciless invective had drowned out his father and son in an instant.
