27. IV
Jiang Xiyi retracted his gaze and poured his wine silently.
Her hands were steady, as she was when she poured the wine, as she had when she had held her sword, and soon she had poured a full glass of wine, and not a drop had spilled out.
The wine is very fragrant, and this glass of wine is a great temptation for anyone who loves wine, but in Jiang Xiyi's eyes, it is no different from other wines.
The sound of the wine hitting the wall of the cup as it was poured out of the pot was the most touching piece of music to the ears of many people in the inn hall, such as Jiang Xiyi and the two drunkards on the table next to them.
She raised her glass, but did not drink it all at once, she stared at the glass and the wine in the glass, as if thinking about something, and held it quietly, and did not see her drink it for a long time.
I don't know how long it has been, the door of the inn has been reopened, and the fallen leaves that were originally paved on the street have also been swept away, Jiang Xiyi suddenly raised his hand and drank the wine in the cup.
With a glass of wine in his stomach, Jiang Xiyi only felt hot, and the hot seemed to be about to burn.
All along, her sword is cold, her hands are cold, and her person is also cold, this cup may be just a warm wine for others, but for Jiang Xiyi, it seems that her whole person can be burned to ashes.
With a 'snap', Jiang Xiyi directly slammed the wine glass on the table, her pale face climbed into a touch of red, her eyes brightened, and she covered her mouth with her other hand, coughing gently.
People who have never drunk alcohol will always not feel comfortable when they drink for the first time.
"Hahaha." Suddenly, a loud laugh came from the next table, so loud that it could be heard clearly from any corner of the inn.
Jiang Xiyi and his entourage looked up, and it was the long-haired old man who was smiling, he looked at Jiang Xiyi and laughed non-stop, Jiang Xiyi looked at him coldly, puzzled.
Now the fire caused by the glass of wine she drank has been slowly extinguished, and her body is gradually filled with a warmth, which seems to be able to melt a qiē ice and snow, which makes people feel very comfortable, and Jiang Xiyi also feels very comfortable.
She suddenly had some panic, because as soon as one felt comfortable, her reflexes and consciousness would slow down, and for her, her sword would slow down.
The only thing Jiang Xiyi cares about is her sword.
At this moment, the big man sitting opposite the long-haired old man also woke up, his eyes were also clear, he looked at the long-haired old man, and said dissatisfiedly: "You old man, what are you laughing at?" It's noisy! ”
The long-haired old man smiled: "I'm not laughing at you, why are you angry?" ”
The big man said: "Then what are you laughing at, what is so cola?" ”
The long-haired old man laughed and said, "I'm laughing at the little girl who doesn't know how to drink, but prefers to drink, and ordered the best wine." ”
As soon as the words fell, fourteen pairs of eyes stared at him tightly, but the long-haired old man was not afraid, he had walked the rivers and lakes for many years, and he knew what kind of eyes people would kill, so he knew very well that these people had no murderous aura and would not do anything.
At this time, Dahan said: "Who is it?" I smelled a burst of wine, and the wine worm in my stomach came to life again, could it be the wine that the little girl ordered? ”
The long-haired old man nodded, "Exactly." ”
Dahan followed the gaze of the long-haired old man, saw Jiang Xiyi's table, saw a pot of wine and a wine glass on her table, sniffed it, and found that the aroma of wine hooking him was indeed coming from the wine jug.
After Jiang Xiyi saw the two of them facing her, she was angry, poured another glass of wine, and drank it all.
After this sip, she covered her mouth and coughed again, but her face was a little redder than before.
The big man looked at Jiang Xiyi's eyes with a smile, but it was not a mockery, nor a trace of malice, he opened his mouth and asked, "Little girl, do you drink?" ”
Jiang Xiyi said: "Will you drink, what does it have to do with you?" ”
Jiang Xiyi's tone was still cold, but it was not as cold as before, as if the wine she drank had melted the ice in her body.
Seeing Jiang Xiyi like this, Dahan smiled and said, "Of course, this has nothing to do with me, but it has something to do with your wine." ”
Jiang Xiyi asked, "Oh? What does it matter? ”
The long-haired old man laughed and said, "What he means is that if you don't know how to drink, don't drink anymore, or you will waste this pot of good wine." ”
Jiang Xiyi lowered his eyes and looked at the pot of wine and the wine glass, gently lifted the wine bottle, poured a full glass of wine again, raised the wine glass and put it to his lips, took a shallow sip, and said, "If I drink it all, it will not be a waste." ”
The big man slapped on the table with a 'snap', Jiang Xiyi looked at the table and shook, as if it was about to fall apart, the big man frowned and shook his head: "How can you say that, how can you say that, you didn't drink the wine like this!" ”
Jiang Xiyi glanced at him coldly and said, "I bought this wine, I can drink it as much as I want." ”
After the big man sighed loudly, he picked up a wine jar and shook it, found that there was still wine in it, and after pouring his head up, he said to the long-haired old man: "Brother, let's go, it's not comfortable to look at me." ”
The long-haired old man didn't reply, because he also gagged himself with a jar of wine.
At this time, a group of people suddenly came to the door of the inn, they poured into the inn, and some people blocked the door, the leader was dressed in luxurious purple clothes, with a sword at his waist, and a handsome face, slowly pacing with a martial devotion, the shopkeeper didn't know what was going on, and greeted him, and said to the man: "This guest officer, are you staying in the hotel?" ”
The man glanced at the shopkeeper, his expression was very contemptuous, and he glanced at the hall in the store, as if he was dissatisfied with the mixture of fish and dragons here, frowned, and said, "No, clear a few tables for us." ”
The shopkeeper laughed and said, "Oh, the guest officer is really sorry, the table in our store is full, please wait?" ”
Before the leader could reply, a young man behind him said angrily: "You dare to make us wait?!" ”
The leader raised his hand and said, "That's not what I said. After that, he looked at the shopkeeper and said, "You can call all these people out and clear a few tables for us." ”
The few people who swept the man's eyes were all coolies who had come here to eat and drink.
After looking at it, the shopkeeper looked embarrassed and said, "Everyone is a guest, small one...... How can the little ones just drive people away? ”
The man looked arrogant and said, "How can those people compare with us. ”
At this time, the innkeeper walked out, he had already noticed this group of people, he thought that the shopkeeper could handle this matter, but he didn't expect the two sides to stalemate for a long time.
The innkeeper was a teenager who looked like he was no more than a teenager, and he didn't look very well-dressed, and he didn't look like the owner of the best inn at all, but he was.
He walked all the way over and said to the shopkeeper: "You go down to greet the other guests first, and leave this matter to me." ”
The shopkeeper nodded and hurriedly walked away.
The shopkeeper said to the man: "The shopkeeper of this inn is below, and I just heard a few guest officials say that they want to drive away the guests in this hall, I don't know if I heard it wrong." ”
The shopkeeper's words were not at all unscrupulous, even if he saw that this person's identity was extraordinary, but he was neither humble nor arrogant.
The man said, "You heard me right, we've been waiting at the door for a long time, so let's clear a few tables." ”
The shopkeeper smiled, but he didn't move, and said: "These people are my guests, since they have come and given me silver, as long as we don't close, we can sit for as long as we want, even if we are the shopkeeper, we will not drive people away." ”
The man paused, looked at the shopkeeper, and said, "Then you are going to offend us?" ”
The shopkeeper said: "I have to offend you below, I see that you seem to be people in the rivers and lakes, the small shop has been at the foot of Kunlun Mountain for many years, the reason why it has a foothold, can survive so far, the relationship, I think you also understand." ”
The man sneered and said, "I don't listen to you say these nonsense, and I'm not afraid of you." ”
The young man behind him said angrily: "Senior brother, what else do you want to say to him, just kill him directly, we are still busy on the road!" ”
"You're right."
As soon as the man's voice fell, there were a few sounds of 'Zheng', and the long swords of all the people came out of their sheaths and pointed directly at the shopkeeper, and the long sword of the leader waved and picked it up on the neck of the shopkeeper.
The hall fell silent and tense as everyone waited for what would happen next.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I saw that you just practiced sword techniques, could it be that you are from the Demon Sect?" ”
The man seemed to be a little surprised, and said, "Yes, I didn't expect you to have some knowledge." ”
The shopkeeper said: "'There is no way, the Great Nine Styles of the Soul Dementor' are still known." ”
The man said, "Do you think you're still alive?" ”
"Why can't he live?"
At this time, a woman's clear voice came from the east side of the hall, and everyone in the hall heard it clearly, and those who understood naturally knew that this voice was full of internal strength, and looked to the east for a while, wanting to find out who was speaking.
In the east corner, there sat a group of men in white and with swords, both men and women, and there were quite a few of them, and they did not know for a moment which girl was speaking.
The man stared at a few tables in the east, did not put down the sword in his hand, and said unhurriedly: "Which master speaks, can you show up?" ”
"It's me."
When the people heard the word 'yes', the sound stretched all the way from the east to the door, and when the word 'I' landed, the person who spoke was already standing between the man and the shopkeeper.
The man was a woman in white, with a hint of red on her face, but her eyes were clear, this person was Jiang Xiyi, she looked at the man and said coldly: "You didn't use the sword like this." ”
The two men at the table next to them couldn't help laughing when they heard this, and only remembered what they had just said to the little girl, 'You didn't drink the wine like that. ’
The man said: "This girl, this matter has nothing to do with you, please stay away." ”
Jiang Xiyi continued as if he hadn't heard his words: "Is your sword also unsheathed without blood and never returned to the sheath?" ”
The man smiled and said, "Yes." ”
Jiang Xiyi said: "Then I'll help you put the sword into the sheath." ”
The atmosphere suddenly became condensed, and the wind blew in through the doorway, through the window.
Before Jiang Xiyi's words landed, she stepped forward directly, pointed at the acupoint at the man's shoulder blade with one hand, and locked his right wrist with the other.
The man couldn't react, and subconsciously raised the palm of his left hand to slap Jiang Xiyi away.
Jiang Xiyi grabbed his right hand with his left hand, and his right hand also made a palm, touching his palm.
After the sound of 'bang', the man only felt a powerful and strange power, this power came from Jiang Xiyi's palm, and before he could think about it, his whole person was shocked by this power.
Jiang Xiyi said: "Your sword has been sheathed. ”
