Chapter 42: Double Distilled Wine

Su Langzhong spoke loudly as if reading a declaration, and as soon as the words came out, the scene suddenly fell silent. They all stopped their chopsticks and looked at each other. It's so rude, this guy didn't take the master seriously. But what can be said is the truth, and it's really hard to respond.

He Lang didn't look at Su Langzhong at all, smiled at Wang Duan, and said:

"Lord Wang, please...... The King of the Apocalypse has repeatedly reiterated that the reception of the court should not be extravagant, and there should be no leftovers, so as not to destroy the heavens. It is necessary to know that the Chinese food on the plate is hard. My children of Huaguo will borrow your country tomorrow to go to Xiaoshan to practice and embark on a long road of seeking immortals. The peach and plum banquet is to hope that they will not forget their hometown and their roots, rather than asking for a vulgar wine and food. I didn't think about neglecting the mission, and I offended ......"

After all, he is an old fox in officialdom, and his words are beautiful, and he uses his strength to fight.

It not only resolves the embarrassment of having few dishes, but also sublimates the profound meaning and satirizes the vulgarity of the Zhou people. and pointed out that the student has nothing to do with Zhou Guo, he is going to the Xiaoshui Sword School.

Dong Shumin applauded, crisp and lively, good!

With her taking the lead, the students clapped one after another, and the sound was like thunder. Su Langzhong punched him in the air and sat down.

When the applause stopped, Hu Li turned his head to look at the pavilion on the left, and ordered, music.

Bai Ling'er's slender jade fingers flicked lightly on Yaoqin.

A string of soft clear sounds is issued, like the bright moon shining, the river is sparkling, and the flowers of Luzhou are in full bloom.

Then Sheng and Pipa joined, one gentle and one cheerful, but not noisy. Such as green clothes and emeralds, not far and not close, following the beauty in the forest under the moon. The crisp jingle sound sounded one or two after a long time, and then it sounded, and the distant hole flute swept through the clouds like a breeze......

Ethereal singing wafted out of the pavilion and lingered among the peach and plum trees.

"The tide of the spring river is even with the sea, and the bright moon on the sea is born together. Thousands of miles with the waves, where there is no moon in the spring river......"

In the woods, Xintianyou raised his neck and finished the wine in the pot, happy.

The tune of "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night" is soft and beautiful, and the accompaniment to the meal is excellent. If the majestic and fierce "General's Order" is played like the City God Temple, it will urge everyone to gobble up, and the stomach ulcer will probably be rectified.

Hehe, Tong San's throat was so terrifying that he yelled in his throat that day, and he almost fell out of the ring. Bai Ling'er said that whoever wins Binghu, she will raise her eyebrows, and the ghost will believe it!

The peach and plum banquet was originally a farewell to the wanderer in his hometown.

The officials of Qin Tianjian put down their shelves one after another, and toasted table by table under the leadership of Hu Shilang.

Among these students, only a very few can become immortal masters, and most of them still have to return to mortals. After returning to the world, the master of Tongyou who has learned the Tao will go to the Qin Heavenly Prison to receive a resettlement fee, or be recommended by him to enter the imperial court. The rest of the people can only be scattered among the people.

But in any case, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. There is little hope for cultivating immortals after all, and it is necessary to do something for them.

Two steaming dishes were served on the table, and the officials of the Chinese State finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

A sand bowl of sharp Buddha jumping over the wall, the fragrance is attractive.

A plate of steamed deer tails, which was praised as the best taste in the world, was piled up into a small hill.

Sika deer is a rare thing, and deer tail is a precious medicinal material, which warms the waist and knees, and benefits the kidney. A deer has only one tail, and one tail can only be made into a plate. In terms of price alone, this dish is frighteningly expensive, and even kings can't eat it often. This time, it was served with a large plate, and it seemed that more than one tail was used.

How did they know that quarrels about portions had already reached the kitchen. The three masters were afraid of being dragged out to hit the board, so they resorted to all their means, and insisted on making the smoked venison leg meat into a tail shape. I'm not afraid of being exposed, anyway, no one has eaten a few times for high-ranking officials outside.

A Zhou Guo waiter pointed to the steamed deer tail and shook his head: "Alas, isn't it too extravagant." ”

Hu Shilang said expressionlessly: "There is Yu Qing in the family of goodness. ”

After finishing speaking, he didn't say much, and opened the two chopsticks widely, and there were five pieces in one piece. The heart says, if Lao Tzu eats more pieces, you will eat less pieces.

Zhou Shilang was choked and rolled his eyes, and said in his heart, just now the dishes were not extravagant, but now the dishes are more than enough to celebrate, and they are shameless! When I looked at it again, I almost fainted. In such a stunned effort, the dish of the world's absolute smell was clean and smooth, and even the two Shangshu masters were unceremonious.

After all, it is a state banquet, not a shrew scolding the street, and the image of the officials of the two countries is still wanted. After a tour of wine, the scene presented a fake and fake, like a spring breeze.

Bai Ling'er stopped singing, and lowered the voice of the music, so as not to affect the adults and students chatting while eating.

Ben came to this time, He Lang should have said a few more words of encouragement and left the scene first. In previous years, the King of the Apocalypse had such a process. There are too many officials and too many VIPs at the banquet, which will make young boys and girls restrained and lose the original intention of farewell. But the king did not move, and he did not dare to go.

The other party suddenly proposed to participate in the peach and plum banquet, but the Ministry of Rites originally refused, but who expected that Queen Zhou Mei would personally give instructions. A fool can guess that the Zhou people have no good intentions.

A Zhou squire said:

"On this mission to Baisha City, I listened to the discussion in the streets. Every three years in the spring examination, the Xiaoshui Sword Sect only admits fifty people in Huaguo, and two hundred people in Zhou, which is really unfair. ”

Everyone was silent, not knowing what medicine he was selling in his gourd. As a subordinate, he dared to talk in front of his boss and high-ranking officials of other countries, and he was absolutely instructed.

The squire continued:

"I also think it's unfair, because many candidates who fail in Zhou Guo can be admitted when they come to Huaguo to take the exam. Our 201st place is often ranked in the top 40 of China. It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity...... If you think it's unfair, we think it's unfair. How about not mixing candidates from the two countries in the next spring exam and admitting them according to their scores? ”

Hu Li was shocked, and hurriedly raised his glass to persuade him to drink, and said:

"Brother Tai's words are serious, and his words are serious."

The barren vitality of heaven and earth in Huaguo has led to the general failure of students' spiritual roots. If you really want to fight hard with Zhou Guo, the admission quota will be suddenly reduced to thirty or forty.

This matter had also been raised by Qin Tianjian of the Zhou State before, but at the end of the Ten Elders, Yiyun Master from the Hua Kingdom, was too resolutely opposed to it, so it did not succeed.

Practicing is very expensive.

Even if the poor children have excellent spiritual roots, they will be reduced to mediocrity if they lack cultivation conditions. Wealthy children are piled up by various resources, and even if their spiritual roots are mediocre, they can be promoted. It is unfair to let them compete in the same field. In the long run, the talents of the barren land will become fewer and fewer, and they will wither.

Regarding Zhou Shilang's proposal to show off his might, the officials lacked confidence and were powerless to refute it. The teenagers hung their heads in shame, and Dong Shumin glared angrily.

People just deliberately expose your shortcomings in front of you and bully you, what can you do? Not spitting out a dirty word also involves the future allocation of places. People can't lose their temper, they can only swallow their anger.

The scene fell silent for a while, Wang Duan laughed, shook the wine glass in his hand, and diverted the topic.

"Huaguo's wine is sweet, cotton, and really good. The old man specially brought Zhou Guo's double-steamed immortal wine this time for the sake of all the students, and also invited the princes to taste it...... Come on, get the wine. ”

The provocation had been planned by the mission for a long time, accusing Sang of scolding Huai for attacking the Chinese without revealing a problem, which aroused the anger of Miss Dong. Next is the main drama, this wine is equivalent to eating a little hors d'oeuvres before serving the main dish.

Double distilled immortal liquor, a spirit among spirits, is famous all over the world. The quantity is extremely scarce, and it is only supplied to the elders of the Zhou royal family and the Xiaoshui Sword Sect, and even Wang Duan is not qualified to drink it. Zhou Hai drank well, and brought two jars with him. But he couldn't drink after he was seriously injured, and there was a jar left that was just the introduction to this layout.

Isn't this a detriment to our people, but also to the poor hospitality and degrading the national character?

Although Hu Shilang is a civil official, he is also a martial artist who has access to the secluded realm. Jiang Gui's nature is old and strong. Hearing this, his face sank, and he was about to shout rudely regardless of etiquette, but he saw Shangshu He Lang shaking his head slightly.

On second thought, that's right. Lao Tzu drank your wine, and then see what tricks you played!
