Chapter 12 Red Clay Boiled Wine
It wasn't until Poplar tapped me on the shoulder that I came to my senses and was reluctant to say goodbye to her.
After promising her to come often, we went down the mountain, and there were a few things that I had to deal with in a hurry.
The first is to digest the heart of the ghost king of the ghost king, completely calm the wounds in the heart, and never suffer in the future.
The heart of the ghost king is also the blessing of the ghost king. It promised to give me a ghost heart every month, but I have always been more realistic, and I believe more in the benefits that can be obtained by reaching out than the unseen and untouchable promises.
You must know that not every ghost king has a ghost king heart, and only a ghost king with a physical body has a chance to produce.
The Skinners are one of the few outliers with flesh among the ghosts, which is its strength and greatest weakness, and because of this, it will be the first to choose poplars when it comes to sneak attacks. In addition to the fact that the poplar tree is a real realm and is relatively easy to get, it is also because the poplar's speed can pose a great threat to it.
Afterwards, we speculated that this thing showed mercy to Yang Shu's subordinates, and it was definitely not to reserve a way out, as for why, looking at Yang Shu's beautiful little white face, it is not difficult for us to imagine it.
Although the Skin-Peeling Ghost King must be dead anymore, I can't be relaxed at all, among the ghosts and demons who set up a trap to harm me, this guy is just a character who comes out of the woods, and those hidden in the shadows are the most terrifying.
If I don't pull out all these things one by one, I'm afraid I won't even be able to sleep soundly.
As for the so-called enemy of the Three Realms, most of it is just its intimidating words, but I didn't take it to heart.
I'm really worried about Han Tianfu's mental retardation, if he is already dead, it will be fine, but if it falls into the hands of those guys, it will be a really bad thing!
The second thing I have to do is to go to the three forks, find out the problems of those mute tourists, find out the people who have chased and kill Chu Xue'er, and make them pay the price they deserve. First, this matter is likely to be related to the Dongning Fortress, and more importantly, this is what I owe her.
But before I go, I'm going to touch the bottom of those mute tourists.
In Dongning, if you want to find out the news, you naturally have to find Uncle Luo.
Uncle Luo's name is Luo Kaishan, who has been running an antique shop in the thrift market for 20 years, with a wide range of contacts, good information, and a very high status.
The thrift market is diagonally opposite the wrought iron shop, only five minutes walk away, and the location is also considered to be the location of the city center, although it is not in the bustling commercial street, but it is obviously not easy to occupy an area of tens of thousands of square meters here.
The thrift market looks like it sells tatters, but in fact it is a mixture of fish and dragons, the old goods of the three cities and twelve counties are distributed here, every day before dawn, those cows, ghosts, snakes and gods who can't see the light will gather here, whether it is gold and jade porcelain pottery, or the knives, guns and shells left by the little devils, as long as you have money and a way, you can buy it.
Walking into the gate of the market, you can see a lot of bicycles and small liberation gathered at the door, all waiting to pull bulk goods, working hard, and some brokers will surround you, chasing you and asking, what does the boss want to buy.
It seems normal, but if you think they're really just eating this line of food, you're wrong.
In the eyes of these people, there is weighing and vigilance.
I was accustomed to this, and I walked through the stall trading area covered with colored steel tiles and entered an alley in the north corner of the market.
I've been to this place a few times before, and I didn't think there was anything unusual, but at this time, I suddenly felt the danger when I was in the Holy Realm, and if I came with hostility, I am afraid that this path would not be so easy to walk to the end.
At the end of the alley, there is an inconspicuous courtyard, the small wooden second floor looks like it has been around for some years, and there are already people waiting for me in the courtyard.
"Boss Yang, please come in." The man wore a peaked cap with a low brim.
I'm not surprised, it would be strange if they only found out when I got here.
I followed him into the hall, this hall is not ostentatious, there is a coffee table in the middle, there are old wooden furniture on all sides, except for the statue of Guan Gong in red face and green robe, and a pot of blooming Phlaenopsis with gold and red stamens on the flower stand by the window, almost no color can be seen. But if someone from the antique shop enters here, he must drop his jaw in shock.
At this time, there was an old man with a slightly fat figure sitting on the side of the coffee table, wearing a green cloth Tang suit, his sideburns were white without a strand of green silk, and he was unhurriedly fiddling with a red clay stove with Tang style, the charcoal fire was scorching the purple sand hot wine pot on the stove, and the white gas was steaming from the pot, and the whole hall was wafting with a trace of intoxicating rice wine.
"Green ant new roasted wine, red clay small stove, old Uncle Luo is good Yaxing."
The person who cooked the wine was Luo Kaishan.
He took his wine and asked lightly: "This red mud boiled wine is the most exquisite, in addition to the newly brewed, unfiltered rice wine, there is still one thing missing, do you know what it is?" ”
I shook my head slightly, and Luo Kaishan raised his head at this time, but instead of looking at me, he looked out the window.
"If you want snow in the evening, you can drink a glass of nothing. Looking at this day, I'm afraid it's about to snow. ”
I could tell that what he lacked was someone to drink with, and that I wasn't qualified.
"It's a pity that your master is one step ahead."
"My master can't drink the wine of his seniors, but the juniors ask themselves that the amount of wine is not bad."
I said as I sat down on the mahogany bench across from him and looked at him with a smile.
He also smiled, took a white towel and padd his hand noncommittally, picked up the pot, poured wine into the wine cup on the coffee table, and then pinched a cup and handed it to me: "You have been in charge of the shop for two months, right?" ”
I reached out and took the cup with my thumb and forefinger.
But when I stretched out my hand, I realized that something was wrong, and my two fingers paused less than half a minute away from the purple sand wine cup, and the wisps of wine that overflowed from the wine cup spread down the mouth of the cup, just separating me, so that I couldn't pinch my two fingers.
"Two months."
With the effort of opening my mouth, my fingertips penetrated the wine without a trace, pinched it on the wine cup, and drank it all in my hand.
"Good wine."
Luo Kaishan really showed a smile at this time, but the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes were even more wrinkled.
"Although you have been learning from your master for a long time, you have just taken over the shop, so you must not rush it. The most important thing in doing things is to be measured. Your master has been able to do it smoothly for so many years, do you know the knowledge here? ”
"Please also ask Uncle Luo for advice." I didn't know what he meant, but looked at him and asked.
The smile on his face disappeared, obviously thinking that I was not on the road, and said in a deep voice: "Young people are vigorous, and there is nothing wrong with being decisive, but you must know that you have to be forgiving and forgiving, and those who walk on the rivers and lakes are all on the same path, who knows if you want others to help you in the future." ”
This is very misty, and it makes me even more unpredictable.
"I don't understand what Uncle Luo said, if the younger generation has done anything too much, you can say it clearly."
"I heard that you've been having a bad time with Daomen recently?"
It suddenly dawned on me that Daomen was obviously referring to Lu Jun: "They came to my store, and I seized a gun from them." ”
"Well, just because they made trouble in your store, you abolished people for ten years?"
Luo Kaishan smiled and put down his wine glass: "Sure enough, it is the back waves of the Yangtze River that push the front waves, you want to shoot us old and immortal front waves to death on the tidal flats!" ”
The moment he put down his glass, the hall suddenly became tense!
The smell of wine in the house seemed to turn into a stringed arrow, pointing directly at me, making me unable to breathe and my hair to be open!
I was slightly stunned, then laughed, and didn't care about him, picked up the steaming purple clay pot, poured myself a glass, shook it lightly, sniffed the wine, and drank it up.
Then I adjusted my sitting posture, leaned back on the bench, and crossed my legs: "Is Uncle Luo going to help Lu Jun?" ”
Luo Kaishan was obviously stunned by my relaxed and leisurely demeanor, you know, under the shroud of his holy realm aura, Xian Xuanzi was already trembling with nervousness, and if he was a little timid, he might have knelt down for him.
And I poured myself a drink unconsciously, which says a lot.
"Haha, your uncle and I, what an old man!"
Luo Kaishan smiled lightly, without the slightest embarrassment, as if he just wanted to take the junior exam.
With this smile, the pressure around him disappeared.
While talking, he poured me a full cup: "No wonder Yang Zhen is willing to leave, so that's the case, he has nothing to worry about!" Say, come to me for something. ”
Luo Kaishan looked like nothing had happened, but I knew in my heart that his relationship with Lu Jun, the Black Dragon Sect, and even the Daomen was not as indifferent as he appeared, although he was an old Xuanzi, he stepped on more than two boats.
Although I was also curious about what happened to Lu Jun's sudden abolition of his Taoism for ten years, I didn't want to entangle with him in this matter.
"I'm going to go to the three-way crossing, it's been a bit noisy over there lately, and I want to ask you about the situation."
Luo Kaishan took a sip of wine, clicked his mouth, and nodded: "This is the right thing." ”
"You can't do that, though."
I looked at him and waited for him to do the rest.
He took out the remote control and lit up the TV on the side wall, and soon a video was shown on the TV.
"This is the little cub below who took a drone shot, you can take a look first."
The video is taken in a wilderness in a valley, the weather is bad, the clouds are overcast, the cloud layer is extremely low, and the harsh wind is whistling non-stop, faintly visible, the area in the center of the wilderness is surrounded by a tall fence, inside is a construction site, you can see the tower crane, the shed, everything is in order, and the work is in full swing.
As the line of sight slowly closes in, the engineering renderings by the gate appear on the screen, and you can only vaguely see the eye-catching title, the schematic diagram of the first phase of the water source project of Xueyuan Mineral Spring Development and Investment Co., Ltd. and Dongning Branch.
I frowned slightly, and was about to take a closer look, when there was a bang in the video, and then the picture was interrupted, and a snowflake.
Luo Kaishan said: "This group of people is very strict in their work, and the drone only photographed these and was blown up, see and laugh." ”
I was suspicious, judging from the video, the drone was at least a kilometer away from the industrial park, and at this distance, it was difficult to accurately explode the drone unless a sniper step was used. But apart from the country, who dares to blatantly move a gun.
Immediately, the TV screen turned, and a few photos came out, because it was far away, the shooting angle was not good, and it was almost impossible to see the faces clearly, only a few Mitsubishi Jeeps were seen up and down Some people, led by a little older, were well protected by bodyguards.
What caught my attention was that one of the photos was taken with an infrared camera, penetrating the one-way window of the Mitsubishi Grand Jeep, and vaguely saw that there was still a person in the car who had not gotten out of the car, and this person, who seemed to be wearing a hunting suit!
This kind of clothing is now worn only by stubborn Japanese onmyoji.
"Little devil?" Before I knew it, my voice was so cold that it was icy.
