The Necromancer of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 11 The one who came back was a dead man

Zhang Nan and Jiao Chu went out of the city to kill Yuan Xu.

From the beginning of the night until late at night, the two of them still haven't come back.

Yuan Xi and the others were anxious, but after a second thought, they brought so many people, but Yuan Xu didn't have a single guard by his side, so they definitely shouldn't have missed.

I didn't go back to the city, maybe I was waiting for the next morning.

After all, he was going to kill the fourth son of the Yuan family, so he couldn't do it too ostentatiously.

Thinking that he had figured it out to celebrate the festival, Yuan Xi didn't wait to die, and went to sleep.

In his sleep, he felt as if someone was standing beside him.

Opening his eyes suddenly, he drew his sword and sat up and asked, "Who is it?"

The guard outside heard the shout and rushed in holding the oil lamp.

There was indeed a person standing beside Yuan Xi's couch.

The man stood motionless with his sword in hand, surrounded by a group of guards, and did not show the slightest panic.

"It's General Zhang!" The oil lamp illuminated the room, and a guard saw that he was Zhang Nan.

Yuan Xi got up and stayed on the bed, signaling the guards to step back.

Only he and Zhang Nan were left in the room.

"How's it going?" he asked.

Zhang Nan didn't respond, but stood there straight.

"What's going on?" Yuan Xi was a little annoyed: "Whether it's successful or not, just say something!"

Zhang Nan raised his head abruptly, his eyes were empty and lifeless, and suddenly he swung his sword and slashed at him.

Startled, Yuan Xi let out a strange cry and jumped onto the couch.

Zhang Nan slashed out a sword, hitting the couch in the middle, the blade of the sword was deeply cut into it by two inches.

If he was hit by this sword, Yuan Xi's life would be forfeited.

Taking advantage of Zhang Nan's exhaustion, Yuan Xi drew his sword and slashed at his neck.

The head fell to the ground, and Zhang Nan fell down with a crash.

Hearing movement in the room, the guard rushed in again.

"Protect Young Master!" Someone shouted, and all the guards blocked Yuan Xi behind.

One of them stepped forward to examine Zhang Nan's body.

He looked astonished: "General Zhang should have been dead for some time."

"How is it possible?" At the last moment, Zhang Nan swung his sword and slashed at him, Yuan Xi didn't believe what the guard said at all.

"Although the corpse spots haven't appeared yet, the blood has clotted." The guard replied, "I've been dead for at least two hours."

Stepping forward to kick the sword in Zhang Nan's hand, Yuan Xi checked it himself.

In addition to the severed head, Zhang Nan also had a wound on his chest.

The wound runs through the chest and back, and it can only be seen that it was pierced by a weapon with a pole.

The blood that flowed out had also coagulated, and it was indeed dead for a while.

"Have you seen General Jiao?" Yuan Xi was horrified by the abnormality of the corpse, and asked about Jiao Touch's whereabouts.

As long as he sees Jiao Touch, he can understand what happened.

Unfortunately, the guards shook their heads.

Zhang Nan returned after his death, but Jiao Touch disappeared without a trace.

The assassination of Yuan Xu must have failed.

What puzzled Yuan Xi the most was, why did the dead come back, and how did he manage to chop him with a weapon?

"Take the body out and bury it, and don't let anyone see it."

What happened was so weird that he didn't even want to look at Zhang Nan's body.

The guards carried the body away.

Yuan Xi called two of them to stop: "You two stay in the house tonight, if there is any disturbance, wake me up immediately."

He pretended to lie down calmly, but he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

It's strange to be able to sleep when encountering such a thing!
In the early morning of the next day, he immediately ordered people to go outside the city to search for the disappeared Jiao Chu and others.

The Yuan family has a rule, whenever Yuan Shao is at home, the children have to go to him every morning to say hello.

After arranging people to go out of the city, Yuan Xi went to his father's residence.

When he was approaching Yuan Shao's bedroom, he saw Yuan Shang and Yuan Xu approaching each other while talking.

Sure enough, Yuan Xu was still alive, and his face suddenly became ugly.

Zhang Nan and Jiao Chu really missed...

The one who came back is dead, and the one who disappeared must be more or less ominous.

"Second brother!" Seeing Yuan Xi, Yuan Xu was very kind.

He wanted to avoid the two of them, but Yuan Xu would actually greet him, so Yuan Xi had no choice but to bite the bullet and go up to him.

"Why are you two together?" He asked pretendingly.

"It just happened to happen." Yuan Shang replied: "The fourth brother was telling me that he met a thief outside the city last night."

Of course Yuan Xi knew who the so-called thief was.

He pretended not to know and asked, "What kind of thief?"

"It's just a few small thieves, all of them have been killed, and only one ran away." Yuan Xu pretended not to know that he sent them: "Two leaders, one turned into meat, and the other ran away. I am Check who is behind the scenes."

Jiao Touch turned into meat, Yuan Xi felt relieved.

What he was most worried about was that the plot to kill his younger brother would be revealed and it would be brought before Yuan Shao.

"Second brother and I have a few words to say." Yuan Xu said to Yuan Shang: "Third brother can go to say hello to father first."

"Then I'll go first." Yuan Shang nodded.

Yuan Xi stared at Yuan Xu vigilantly: "What do you want to say?"

"What do I want to say, can't the second brother guess it?" Yuan Xu smiled half-smile.

"I have something to talk about." Yuan Xi felt guilty, so he was not willing to talk to him, and immediately made a gesture to leave: "If it's okay, I'll go to say hello to my father."

"Okay, second brother just go, I'll come later." Yuan Xu smiled.

"What exactly do you mean?" The more he didn't explain clearly, the more uncertain Yuan Xi felt, and of course he didn't dare to leave easily.

"Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan are dead, Second Brother has nothing to say?" Yuan Xu lowered his voice, "The thieves I met last night were actually them."

Yuan Xi was stunned, and his eyes darkened.

Being caught by Yuan Xu, can he still have a good life in the future?

But after all, he was not an ordinary person, and his heart was full of bitterness, but he still asked with a sneer: "You said it was them, what evidence do you have?"

"Jiao Touch has indeed become meat." Yuan Xu curled his lips: "Zhang Nan also ran back to Yecheng..."

"The mouth is on your face, why don't you say it?" Yuan Xi snorted coldly, turned his head and was about to leave.

Since Yuan Xu failed to catch the real hammer, there is no need to worry about it.

"Okay." Yuan Xu sighed: "It seems that I can only tell my father about the matter and ask him to distinguish it. Apart from Zhang Nan and Jiao Touch, it's not like I didn't catch everyone else."

After only two steps, Yuan Xi stopped.

He turned around. If eyes could kill, Yuan Xu would have died thousands of times.

"What exactly do you want?" Yuan Xi gritted his teeth and asked.

"I want my second brother to arrange a marriage for me and Ms. Zhen." Yuan Xu smiled meanly: "I hold grudges, but my memory is not very good. When encountering happy things, it is easy to forget the unhappy ones... "

"I understand." When replying, Yuan Xi gritted his teeth.

For Zhen Mi, he did not hesitate to send someone to kill Yuan Xu.

In the end, the man was not killed, but a marriage was arranged for him.

This humiliation will never be forgotten even in death!
Yuan Xi's face was ashen. At this moment, if he was given a steel bar, it could be bitten into two pieces.

Yuan Xu, however, was triumphant: "I'm going to trouble my second brother to mention something to my father later."
