Chapter 44: Bacchus

The old man was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed: "Interesting, you kid is really interesting!" Lao Tzu built this water village, although the name is a bandit, but he never does anything that disturbs the people in the township, this matter is that you don't mention it, Lao Tzu also wants to get back his innocence! ”

Xu Zizhen got up and came to him, picked up the bowl and drank it with his neck tilted, and praised: "Good wine!" He put down the empty bowl and picked up another bowl of wine, "I'm just routinely confirming, first punish yourself for three bowls and compensate you, you don't blame." After speaking, he raised his head and drank it dry, and without waiting for a slow breath, he drank another bowl.

"Good!" The old man slapped the handrail and stood up, picked up the bowl and dried it three times in a row, wiped his mouth and said with a smile, "Happy!" I didn't expect you kid not only to be bold, but also to drink a lot, I haven't met such a happy kid like you for a long time, come on, do it again! ”

This wine is made of glutinous rice, the entrance is mellow and slightly sweet, and it is not as fierce as white wine, but the stamina is great, Xu Zizhen only felt slightly dizzy after three bowls in a row, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Old man, you wait a while, let's finish talking and then drink it." ”

The old man looked at him, put the bowl down, and said with a smile: "Lao Tzu's surname is Hao Mingdong, you don't want to call the old man, Lao Tzu is not even fifty, not so old, if you don't dislike it, just call me big brother." ”

Xu Zizhen stood close at this time, and also saw clearly, Hao Donglai's face was covered with a layer of light rust, thinking that it was because of eating this water rice all year round, and he looked old in the wind and sun, but his body was strong and his eyes were bright, how could he be a little old, he quickly changed his words and said: "Brother Donglai, I'm sorry, my eyes are not good, you forgive me." ”

Hao Donglai didn't care, waved his hand and said: "Lao Tzu doesn't like to play false, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Xu Zizhen said with a smile: "Brother Donglai, seeing that you are also a good man who doesn't rub sand in your eyes, I'm afraid that being detained in a basin is uncomfortable, right?" ”

Hao Donglai glared: "Nonsense, it's just that Lao Tzu is familiar with the surface of this Taihu Lake, but he can't make such a big effort on the ground, what do you have ideas, let's hear it?" ”

"We can cooperate, now there is only one boss in Suzhou City, which is equivalent to your status in Taihu Lake." Xu Zizhen said with a smile, "In this way, it will be simple, as long as those miscellaneous pieces appear, they will have no place to run, there must be old flowers on the ground, and they will get into this Taihu Lake...... Hehe, with your big brother Donglai, where can he go? ”

Hao Donglai said: "How can you be sure that they will still appear?" What if those bunnies stop there? ”

Xu Zizhen shook his head: "They will definitely appear, because ...... Master Wen didn't intend to pay attention to them at all. ”

Hao Donglai frowned: "What do you mean?" The people suffered a disaster, and he didn't care if his surname was Wen? ”

Xu Zizhen said with a smile: "Lord Wen doesn't care, but those bastards are simply coming for Lord Wen, if Lord Wen really sends someone to arrest them, it will be in their hands, and they will play more and more energetically, and it will be the common people who will suffer at that time." So this matter can only rely on us, as soon as the heroes of our water village look like real fishermen, they may not be able to tell the difference, as long as they dare to show up, they will be recruited; Second, since they are known as water bandits, you don't have the face to do this under the nose of you, the boss of Taihu Lake, right? ”

Hao Donglai stared at him for a long time, and suddenly laughed and said: "You kid is also sharp-tongued, and it would be a shame for you to say that I want to ignore it?" Okay, good, Lao Tzu really can't afford to lose this face, I agreed to what you said, I'll arrange it when I go back, you kid don't worry. ”

Xu Zizhen arched his hand and smiled: "Thank you, big brother Donglai." After speaking, he paused, and then lowered his voice and added, "If you want to catch someone, don't be polite, beat him hard and then throw him to the palace." ”

These pretending to be water bandits don't know where they came from, but they are obviously all the way to those who kidnapped women, and they must not be let go easily.

Hao Donglai rolled his eyes: "Do you still need to teach you this?" If I don't cripple those bastards, I'll be called a bandit in vain! I said, are you still drinking? ”

Xu Zizhen used to soak in the bar almost every day, and the amount of alcohol was practiced by those high wines, which was very easy to drink like sugar water, and he did two bowls in a row without saying a word, and then a leader came over, hugged his fist at Xu Zizhen, and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, let me give you a bowl!" ”

Hao Donglai glared: "What bowl?" Is it so petty? Three bowls! After speaking, he said to Xu Zizhen, "His sister-in-law was abducted a few days ago, and then you were asked to find it back, so this kid always wants to thank you." ”

Xu Zizhen was stunned, no wonder Hao Dong came to know about his rescue, and hurriedly picked up the bowl: "It's a trivial matter, I just ran into it, please!" ”

This meal was drunk all over the place, and all of those leaders were straightforward, and what they admired was that Xu Zizhen was such a cheerful person who loved to fight and hug, and it was rare that the amount of wine was so good, and they lined up one by one to toast.

At first, Xu Zizhen drank to so many people, but he was not stupid, and his eyes turned to teach the way to play in the bars of these bandits in the future, what little bees, fifteen or twenty, and bragging to guess the points, the water bandits were originally only five leaders and four happy talents, and when they saw this new way of playing, they immediately became excited, and they were very happy to learn one by one.

But which of them is Xu Zizhen's opponent, no matter what they play, it is a losing word, until after noon, the whole hall has been lying crookedly, Hao Donglai is already drunk and hazy, although Xu Zizhen is also top-heavy, but he can still stay awake.

Hao Donglai gave a thumbs up while burping, and smiled incoherently: "You kid is good...... Good amount of wine, but this punch is more ...... Better! You're ...... kid It's a bacchus! ”

Xu Zizhen suddenly found Hao Donglai holding his stomach with his hands, and there was a faint pain on his face, and he said strangely: "Brother Donglai, who are you?" ”

Hao Donglai waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "I didn't take it seriously when I was young, but now I have a cold stomach." ”

A flash of inspiration flashed in Xu Zizhen's mind, his face was silent, but he wrote it down in his heart, is his stomach sick?

Seeing that the time was not early, he took advantage of Hao Donglai's confusion and hurriedly said goodbye, he didn't need to mention much about catching the fake bandits, I believe that Hao Donglai himself would take it to heart, and it was not convenient to talk about anything when he visited Hao Donglai for the first time today.

He Liangliang's brother-in-law was also one of the drunk, Hao Donglai arranged for someone to send him, and when he came, he had already tried to see the road, but he still didn't remember a little bit of this Taihu Lake waterway, he secretly praised in his heart: Hao Dong came to find this place as a nest It's really good, unless it's a helicopter or something in the future, otherwise it's a dream to find that place.

The west wind blew all the way, and the wine in Xu Zizhen's stomach finally reacted, and after the boat docked, he got up and jumped as usual, but unexpectedly his head was dizzy and his feet were weak, and he almost fell into the mud, which scared the minions who sent him, and wanted to help him, but he waved his hand and pushed him away.

I finally broke out of the title of the god of wine in the water village, and if I lay down at this most critical moment, it would be a shame.

Xu Zizhen refused the minion's send-off, and walked back staggering alone, this is still outside the city, and there are almost no people along the way, but the sky is not dark yet, and he is not in a hurry, otherwise it will not look good to return to the house with his drunken body, in case he meets Wen Xian, I am afraid that he will have to attract a few white eyes and reprimand.

He was walking slowly when he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and then a crisp voice shouted, "Get out of the way!" ”
