Zhang Ming arrived at the Yamen of the Ministry of War early that day according to his own schedule, but as soon as he entered the door, he was told by the counselor on duty that Zhao Shangshu had left a letter for him, and had arranged a public holiday for him recently. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although he didn't know why, Zhang Ming immediately opened the envelope, only to find that it was an official business arranged by Lao Shangshu for himself.

Lao Shangshu did not explain the reason in the letter, but only assigned Zhang Ming a task. During his public vacation, he had to find out all the restaurants in the capital, regardless of the size of the storefront, and he had to record whether there were any people who liked to gather people to discuss. And at the end, he instructed that he could not reveal his official identity.

Zhang Ming had always obeyed Zhao Shangshu and Xi Shilang's instructions, and he didn't think much about it at the moment and went home to prepare, and immediately went to carry out Lao Shangshu's orders after packing up.

Just after leaving the house, Zhang Ming felt that if he came to the restaurant alone, it would inevitably attract attention. After thinking about it, Zhang Ming immediately turned around. Zhang Ming secretly thought in his heart, first invited a few of his friends, so that he could hide his whereabouts, and he could get together with his friends for a few days.

But after thinking about it for a while, I found that at this time, when it was not right, the one who could play crazy with himself was a fat lotus, and I heard that his position as a staff member made him dispensable, and probably only the banquet was indispensable for him.

After thinking clearly, Zhang Ming hurriedly went to Pan Lian's mansion to invite him, and he was not prepared to pay homage to him along the way. Zhang Ming is very sure that as long as he is looking for a place with good wine in Beijing, this leader in the food world will immediately take himself to travel all over the capital without his own encouragement.

As expected, after explaining her intentions, Fat Lian agreed, and directly said hello to the porter and swam away with Zhang Ming.

This is the third day they have come out together, and before dawn in the morning, Zhang Ming went to look for Fat Lotus early. When Fat Lotus came out, she was still sleepy-eyed.

"Big brother, you're too positive, I haven't woken up from yesterday's wine, why did you come to the door early, where are we going?" said Fat Lian as she yawned. Although he said complaining, there was not much resentment in his tone, and more seemed to be expectant.

In fact, it's no wonder that Zhang Ming is in a hurry, today is his last public sabbatical, that is, the deadline given to him by Lao Shangshu. Although in the past two days, the two have visited all kinds of restaurants in the capital, large and small, but Zhang Ming is only afraid that he will be entrusted by Lao Shangshu. Therefore, I dare not slack off at all. Last night, I happened to hear that there is a lesser-known restaurant in the capital, hidden in the deep alleys, and ordinary people will not know about it.

Zhang Ming couldn't allow himself to be such a negligence, so he immediately came to his friend to accompany him after opening his eyes in the morning.

"Hehe, they all say that you are the leader in our pile of food, but I don't know that a mountain is higher than a mountain, last night I heard that there is a wine fairyland in Beijing, if you are not in it to drink two or three glasses are difficult to understand the mystery, go I will take you today to open your eyes. ”

Hearing Zhang Ming say this, Pan Lian immediately became energetic.

"Oh, there is such a good place, it is necessary to open your eyes, otherwise you will not live up to my fat lotus's nickname. ”

The two talked as they walked, and before they arrived at their destination, the atmosphere had already been hyped up.

Who knew that although it was so enthusiastic, the restaurant hidden in the alleys was not so easy to find, and the two of them finally came to the center of the map that Zhang Ming was holding in his hand.

But a few steps away in front of you is a high wall, where there are the three big characters of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion marked on the map. Just when the two of them were at a loss, a Confucian in an ink-colored shirt behind him came to the two with his own little servant.

Glancing at the map in Lianren's hand, he said with a smile: "It turns out that the two brothers, are they also going to this Drunken Immortal Pavilion? It's no wonder that the first time you come, everyone will be so confused by this trick that they can't distinguish between the east and the west, come and follow me." ”

As he spoke, the man took the lead and led the way for the two of them.

Zhang Ming and Fat Lian are very grateful to meet good people on the road, otherwise they would not be able to find their destination today.

"Thank you, brother. Fat Lian said happily.

"Where, it's just a matter of raising your hands. This Drunken Immortal Pavilion is too difficult to find, if it weren't for chance or someone to lead, I'm afraid it would be rare to peek into the door for the rest of my life. I really don't know what this proprietor thinks, such a good wine has to be so escapist. As he spoke, he began to lament.

Zhang Ming and Fat Lian, who followed behind him, also felt the same way, almost all the time in the morning was wasted in this deep alley, and the two of them could be said to be holding back their anger. Fortunately, when she heard with her own ears that the wine there was a different kind of deliciousness, Fat Lian immediately felt that the trip was worthwhile.

"Who's to say no, but as long as there is good wine, it's worth it. "Fat Lotus is already a little long-awaited.

"Brother Tai often comes here?" Zhang Ming very dutifully began to complete his mission - to find out the details of this restaurant that is not known to the public.

"Actually, it's not counting, although the wine there is not found elsewhere, but it is also very expensive, if I come often, I am afraid that I can only drink the northwest wind. The black-clothed Confucian said with a smile.

"In this way, I am afraid that there will be fewer customers in the restaurant. It's not easy to find, plus the wine is so expensive. Zhang Ming sighed.

"It's not that I can find people who seem to have some net worth for some reason, and I can only go there three or four times a month are a minority, but I heard that the regulars of this restaurant almost don't return every day, and there are many people who call it home. The black-clothed Confucian also said with a confused expression.

"Oh, isn't that going to be a restaurant?" said Fat Lian with a smile.

The two people who heard it were also amused by Fat Lian's words.

"This brother's brain is not slow. It's just that this restaurant has a surprisingly many rules, and the guests who go there can also follow that rules, anyway, until now, I've been there all these times, but I haven't found anyone who doesn't leave. There aren't a lot of common faces. The black-clothed Confucian added.

A few people chatted while walking, and soon came to the seemingly impenetrable wall, the black-clothed scholar smiled and pointed to the wall in front of him and said: "Actually, all the doorways you can't find are here, I don't know if it was specially arranged by the owner of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, or if this alley was renovated and rebuilt for many years. I've also studied it here for a long time, and it seems to be one of the games in line with the Bagua Array, if you don't stand in the hexagram eye in the scene, you can't see any way out. ”

The black-clothed scholar shook his head in admiration as he spoke. Then point out how the two of them should turn around and get to the opposite side.

Zhang Ming noticed that this place was really in line with the essence of a formation written in the military book he usually studied, if he couldn't turn this corner in a certain direction, even if he was in it, he couldn't see the opposite scene, it was really a strange transformation.

Secretly remembering the trend of the entire street and the construction method of the wall here, Zhang Ming planned to study it carefully when he returned home.

A few people passed by the alley, and saw a few big characters in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, Pan Lian was very emotional, there was such a strange place in the Jingshi, and he immediately showed a greater interest in the wine hidden in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion.

Zhang Ming also wanted to know what was the mystery in such a deep restaurant, and the black-clothed scholar was obviously yearning for the wine in his memory, and several people rushed to the gate of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion with a speeding pace.

After arriving at the door, the black-clothed scholar took the reins from the hands of the little man behind him, and with a slight flick of his wrist, he threw the rope sleeve onto a row of wooden stakes on the wall next to the gate that were three inches higher than the heads of people.

Fat Lian was surprised: "Brother is so skilled, have you practiced?"

"Let my brother make fun of me, where have I practiced, but I like to play some tricks in my hands, just to soothe my spirit in my spare time. As he spoke, he raised his hand and asked Zhang Ming and Pan Lian to go to the door first.
