9. When the sword sells wine

At the end of this day, Xiang You'er had finished his work, and he felt that his entry in the past few days was no longer as rapid as when he first practiced, and he knew that he would need to cultivate for a long time to make another breakthrough, and he didn't have to rush for a while, so he couldn't help but play hard. He saw that Ah Bai was competing with everyone in the field, and Kong Liu of the recruitment office was arguing with Wei Qi about whether the quota was vacant, so he took advantage of this gap to call Wang Dou and quietly sneaked out of the north school field to wander. His nature is not restrained, and a few days ago he really had a breakthrough in cultivation, so he enjoyed it, otherwise according to his temperament, he would not have been able to stay in the North School Yard for a full seven days.

Yesterday, when he was eating, he heard Wang Dou say that the second son of Liu Shiqi's family, the first assistant of Beishi, got married today, so he moved his mind to join in the fun, and wanted to eat and play. He wanted to ask the other brothers if they were going with him, but Wei Qi's face sank, and everyone was also in awe and awe of Mr. these days, so they all said they wouldn't go. Xiang Youer also shook her head on the surface, but secretly squeezed the corner of her eyes with Wang Dou, so the two didn't reveal it that night, and slipped out at the right time this morning.

Xiang You'er hadn't been in the market for a long time, and for a while it was like a dragon in the water, so uncomfortable, and after a while, he and Wang Dou arrived outside the first gate of the Shoufu Mansion. At this time, there were already some beggars and ruffians gathered outside the mansion, and since this was the North City, Xiang Youer looked around, but there were no familiar faces.

At that time, whenever a big family gets married, the main family is to avoid evil, and then the ruffians and beggars in the market come around to say some auspicious words, and the main family comes to see the lip color, and secondly, in order to drive away these disheveled people, they often take out some of the dishes in the house and share them with everyone. At the same time, the host family will also invite some opera troupes to leave the good drama in the house to sing, and at the same time hold some miscellaneous plays, and sing on the stage outside the house, expressing the intention of having fun with the neighbors. Therefore, whenever Xiang Youer and others get married like this, it is like a festival, and they always come to join in the fun, and by the way, they can get some delicious food and drama to listen to, which is very enjoyable. Now that I heard that the Shoufu Mansion was married, this kind of excitement could not be made, so I skipped class and fooled around.

Xiang You'er and Wang Dou looked around, trying to find a suitable corner, so that they could go to make a fire after the housekeeper in the house greeted the guests for a while. At this time, although there were not many ruffians and beggars around, they almost occupied all convenient corners, Xiang Youer secretly cursed, and was thinking about which ruffian to squeeze with, but saw a gray-clothed man sitting cross-legged at the base of the corner wall of the street opposite the mansion gate, the man looked to be in his forties, seven feet long, and the muscles under his clothes were faintly bulging, and he looked quite strong. The man had an angular face, a short beard, and unkempt hair. His clothes, though coarsely woven and patched, were neatly dressed.

I saw a black thick and long burning stick placed in front of the place where the man was sitting cross-legged, this burning stick was about five feet long, and the whole body was black, and there was actually a handle near two feet. There was a piece of coarse cloth pressed underneath the burning stick, a few straws pressed on it, and two large black characters that seemed to be written in carbon, "Selling Swords". These two words were written in a messy and scribbled manner, and when Xiang You'er was about to distinguish them carefully, she felt that those two words seemed to be alive, quite like Professor Wei Qi's "word trick", as if he was a samurai with a weapon and was about to break out.

At that time, although the national strength of the Qi Dynasty was not weak, the gap between the rich and the poor was already large, and if the life of the people was unsustainable, it was common for them to sell their children, and if they wanted to sell, it was not uncommon to find some places near the official residences of nobles or places where people were accompanied by people to sell. Xiang Youer already has an "innate fire" at this time, and the time when she looks at people is different from the past. When he saw this man, he felt that his courage was taken by him, and for a moment he felt that he did not want to be an enemy of him. At this time, the man's eyes suddenly rolled, and Xiang You'er looked at it. Xiang You'er instantly felt a huge pressure coming over her, although this feeling was not as thrilling as when he went through the soul test, but it was also irresistible, Xiang You'er couldn't help but let out a soft "ah", and then took a step back.

At this time, the man's eyes had turned back to the vicissitudes of life, and he saw him wave his hand and point to a clearing beside him.

Xiang You'er knew that the man was signaling that they could go over, and he looked around and there was nowhere to go, so he went with Wang Dou to squat next to the man. At this time, the man hugged his hands again, hung his head with his chest, and curled up in a ball, looking like a lonely river. Xiang You'er felt strange, but she didn't dare to talk to the man rashly, so she just stood by the wall in a daze.

After a short time, the people who congratulated the gift arrived one after another, and the housekeeper in the house came out to greet him, while letting the people receive some congratulatory gifts, he was busy and lively for a while, and all the ruffians gathered around at this time to beg for it, but they were stopped by the housekeepers outside the door. Xiang You'er suddenly lost interest at this time, and watched everyone go up to make a commotion, so he himself sat down next to the man and picked his feet, and let Wang Dou step forward to join in the fun.

At this time, the front of the palace was very lively, and the corner where they were located seemed deserted, so Xiang You'er couldn't hold back her curiosity any longer, and asked the man: "Uncle, what kind of sword are you?" He looked at this "sword" for a long time, but he always felt that this "sword" seemed to have no edge and no edge, long and heavy, and could only be regarded as a big iron bar.

But when he heard the man, he didn't look up, and said indifferently: "This is a sword." ”

Xiang Youer didn't expect this person to answer himself like this, so he was stunned, so he had to admit that this was a "sword", Xiang Youer already knew that this man would not say much, but felt that he was not cold, so he continued to ask: "Then what are you selling swords?" ”

"Buy wine." Dahan Road.

"What are you buying alcohol for?" Xiang Youer said.

"Relieve your worries." Dahan Road. As he spoke, he suddenly raised his head and closed his eyes, took a long breath, and then sat alone with his head bowed.

Xiang You'er listened to these few words, and he was also depressed in his heart, he saw that at this time, in order to drive away the ruffians who came up, the family members in the Shoufu Mansion stopped them, and at the same time began to distribute all kinds of food and drink, all kinds of bully, thinking that the master had not come out yet, they could shout willfully. He suddenly felt a fire in his heart, so he walked up quickly, and regardless of the other ruffians shouting and scolding, he opened up the crowd, raised his hand and grabbed a small jar of coarse wine, carried it back to the wall, put the pot of wine on the ground at the man's feet, and said, "Drink! ”

The man glanced sideways at the jar of wine, and suddenly stretched out his big hand, took the pot of wine, opened the altar with his thumb, and when he raised his head, he poured the turbid wine into his mouth, and drank most of the jar at once. Then wiped the corner of his mouth with his other hand and handed the jar of wine to Xiang You'er, Xiang You'er took it, didn't say a word, raised his head and drank it, and when he saw the bottom of the altar, he poured the jar of residual wine on the ground in front of him, and then threw the empty jar on the ground behind him.

The man didn't look at Xiang You'er, continued to sit silently with his head down, and after a while, he suddenly said, "The sword is yours." ”

"I don't want it." Xiang Youer said. He invited the man to drink, originally he just felt that he was compatible with the man, and besides, it was just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, but he didn't think about giving back in his heart.

The man stopped talking, but continued to curl up, as if he were asleep. Xiang Youer looked bored, so she sat down against the wall, and hummed some small songs in the market to relieve her boredom while picking her feet.

This Shoufu Marriage is very lively, and guests have been coming to the door since noon. At the beginning, it was only the officials and small officials who came to congratulate them early, and gradually all the ministries and ministers, all the divisions, and the various government orders Yin came here to congratulate, and the grades continued to rise. The housekeeper in the house was busy with the registration of entertainment, and he was very busy, and then Liu Shiqi and the eldest son Liu Jinxu and the second son of the groom Liu Jinyuan all went out of the house to welcome the guests.

The place where Xiang You'er is located is some distance from the door of the mansion, and the more lively the opposite side is, the more deserted he will become. He was bored at this time, so he stared at the people in the Liu Mansion. I saw Liu Shiqi's face in the country, with five locks of long beard on his face, and he seemed to be very dignified, Xiang Youer had only heard about how this Shoufu Lord was connected to the three yuan and how he had the talent to govern the world, but now he saw it with his own eyes, but it was quite different from the imaginary three heads and six arms. He always felt that literati officials should either be pot-bellied or weak, but unexpectedly, this Shoufu Lord gave him a sense of majesty, and in addition to the majesty, this Shoufu Lord also had some smart feelings. Xiang Youer has been looking at people and things these days, and he always feels that he is different from before, and he can always see the truth through his eyes, and his heart should be different between a grass and a tree, although he can't fully understand this, but he feels that it is fun and has some transparent feelings, so he will pay more attention to different people.

At this time, when he looked at the two sons of the Liu Mansion, he saw that the eldest prince gave his words when he received the guests, and his appearance was the same as that of his father, which can be described as a talent, but when Xiang Youer looked at it carefully, he felt that this person exuded a superficial and exaggerated momentum, and from time to time he also hooked up with the groom's shoulders, which was quite Meng Lang, although he had his father's skin, but it was rare for his father's calm and prudent. looked at the second son again, but saw that the second son was relatively fat, not as powerful as his brother. Although it is his own wedding, he lowered his eyebrows when he greeted the guests, and the guests replied to the ceremony at the same time, although in the middle of the noise, it is rare to be able to give people a quiet and warm feeling, and I have heard that the second son of the Liu family is the champion of today's department, since he was a child, he is the current emperor's East Palace attendant, and his knowledge and strategy have won the appreciation of today. Seeing this, Xiang Youer couldn't help but have a good impression of the groom.

At this time, the various departments of Shangshu Shilang, the three dukes and nine Qing have come, after all, this is the wedding of the first auxiliary son, in addition to the hostility between the DPRK and China, all who can come, for a time this first auxiliary mansion is like a court meeting, it can be said that the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty gathered together, the eldest prince Liu Jinxu saw that there were many guests, and he also intended to make friends, so he happily went back and forth to be a guest. He is good at dancing with long sleeves, and for a while, he has been very good at bringing visitors one after another.

At this moment, I heard a clear and Yue roll call sound from the long street, although the tone was not high, but in the noise of firecrackers clearly came into everyone's ears, but the voice was heard: "Shence Mansion Dao Congratulations!" Hearing this, Liu Shiqi's face changed several times and he was silent, but Liu Jinxu laughed and greeted him.
