Even he himself couldn't help but doubt his ridiculous guess. Maybe he really thought too much. How could there be so many coincidences in the world, and they happened to happen around them.
But he seemed a bit unwilling to just give up. Cao Meng secretly made up his mind that tonight would be the only night for him to indulge as much as he wanted to test his conjecture. If there was no result in the end, he would never do it again in the future.
I have these messy thoughts.
After saying a few words to himself, he regained his composure and continued to pour wine and drink as if nothing had happened.
Zheng Chenggong didn't seem to think that he had done anything wrong at all. As long as he came, he would take all the orders, but there were more than just the two of them sitting at this big table. Everyone here was Zheng Chenggong's subordinates, and they were also his most trustworthy people.
Bros.
It was a rare opportunity to drink from him, so how could everyone miss this opportunity? So not only Cao Meng, but also everyone else on the table came to propose a toast one after another.
Zheng Chenggong has always been willing to accept toasts from his brothers, and this time is no exception.
Fortunately, Zhu Youjian has really developed a good ability to drink at various large and small banquets in the past, and he can show that he is drunk anytime and anywhere. Not only can he get drunk at any time, he can
You can even control how drunk you are.
So he toasted a few times, and when he felt that it was about the same, Zheng Chenggong began to feel dizzy. Zhu Youjian often drank with Zheng Chenggong before. Although he had no idea about his drinking capacity, he had no idea about his drunkenness.
The appearance is quite impressive, and it is very easy to imitate.
When everyone saw Zheng Chenggong starting to feel dizzy, they knew that he was going to talk nonsense about the past again. Their boss had such a habit, whenever he was drunk, he would take out the past and write about it.
I'll write a book about it, and I'll definitely polish it up to make it sound like a myth.
Of course this time was no exception. After Zheng Chenggong got drunk, he told the others at the table a story about how he once slayed a dragon in a dream. The story was told vividly and everyone listened with gusto.
Only Zeng De smiled bitterly: "This story clearly happened to Wei Zheng in the Tang Dynasty. When did it come to you? What's more, anyone can talk nonsense about dragon slaying? It's like that in fairy tales
That’s all, there are actually people who actually retell this as if it were true.”
This was originally a very famous allusion. Unfortunately, most of the people sitting here are rough people. They don’t know much about these famous allusions. Even if they have heard a word of it before, they have long forgotten it.
, and it is even less likely to be connected with the current events, so everyone listened to the story and cheered.
Only Zeng De was sitting in his original seat trying to hold back his laughter and pretending to be fascinated by what he was listening to. It was really hard work. Zheng Chenggong glanced at him, his eyes cold with an obvious warning. Zeng De
Shengsheng swallowed back what she wanted to say.
After telling a story, everyone was satisfied and agreed that today's story was much more interesting than the usual ones. They all recalled the glorious deeds Zheng Chenggong had told before.
Everyone laughed loudly.
Zheng Chenggong giggled without saying a word. He seemed to be listening carefully to what they said, but in fact, his thoughts had already drifted away. Regarding the scene in front of him, he had an unreal and absurd feeling. Everything he had now was
is false.
And what about the people in front of them? Although each of them claimed to be Zheng Chenggong's best brother, in the end, the only one who dared to really raise his doubts to him was Zeng De, and his tone at the time was extremely firm.
These people may have had this suspicion. He was not a qualified fake, especially at the beginning, and it was full of loopholes. He didn't believe that no one really had any doubts about this.
But no one was the first to stand up and question him. This tacit silence contained fear and worry to some extent.
Even if they are brothers, they are still subordinates. If they rashly say something that will cause public outrage, the gain will outweigh the losses. Besides, as long as someone stands in front of them and leads them to continue, that is enough.
Now that they have meat to eat and wine to drink, are they satisfied with their lives like this? In fact, in the end, there is no essential difference between these people and Zeng De. They always laugh at Zeng De as a coward without ambition. In fact, in retrospect, they themselves
, isn’t their purpose to continue living with enough food and drink?
They now need a spiritual pillar to support them and lead them to continue to live. Zheng Chenggong happens to be this pillar, so they are not willing to doubt him. No matter what they feel is wrong, they will explain it to themselves, and then they can continue to face the present openly.
Zheng succeeded.
Just as I was lost in thought, someone called the waiter to bring some wine, someone else stood up and stumbled to go outside for convenience, and someone... had fallen asleep on the table! Yes, the one who fell asleep was Zeng.
Germany.
Zheng Chenggong planned to wake him up and send him back to the inn so that he could take the opportunity to escape. Unexpectedly, accidents always happened so unexpectedly...
They had been in the wine shop for a long time. From the time the sun set over the western mountains to the moonlight above the willow trees, several hours had passed.
It was almost the closing time of the restaurant, and a waiter, who might have been a little tired after running around all day, suddenly slipped as he walked past them carrying a soup basin, and the soup basin rushed towards them.
Obviously, no one expected such a change. In addition, if you drink too much, people tend to become dizzy and slow to react. Therefore, an accident that could have been completely avoided did not lead to anyone reacting and taking any action.
Zheng Chenggong's reaction was relatively quick. He picked up Zeng De and Cao Meng who were closest to him, and threw them behind them regardless of whether they were still sleeping or talking endlessly about their history of blood and tears.
Although others reacted and caught him in time, Zeng De was still knocked awake by the ruthless fall, and Cao Meng opened his mouth wide and didn't know what to say.
So everyone watched helplessly as the large pot of soup was poured directly on Zheng Chenggong. At that moment, everyone could not help but close their eyes and prick up their ears, fearing that they would hear a tragic sound soon.
