Chapter 148: Halfway to Drink
The night was deep, the moonlight and starlight were covered with a thin veil of clouds and mist, making it difficult to see, and the entire Shaolin Temple was shrouded in a breathless tranquility.
Zhang Yue stood at the door of the study, looking at Wu Yan holding a broom in the hazy moonlight. The two looked at each other, and the wind swept up pieces of fallen leaves, spinning and dancing between the two, inexplicably, and the air had a touch of romance. Of course, if the object is not a big man like Wu Qi.
"I've finished copying the Buddhist scriptures, do I want to help you sweep them?" Zhang Yue looked at the fallen leaves everywhere and asked.
Wu Qi put down the broom and said with a smile: "It seems that copying Buddhist scriptures is not so hard for you, I have also finished sweeping, this place is not in my hands." Let's go, I'll take you to pick peaches. That's all for dinner tonight! β
Zhang Yue was suspicious, "I'm quite hungry, are you sure the peaches can be eaten?" β
Wu Qi patted the bulging chest muscles and said with a smile: "If you can't eat enough, I'll go to the back mountain to catch a few hares for you." Rest assured, it's okay to be full. β
"Hare? Isn't Buddhism a meat abstinence? β
"Hey, what do you know, the wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and the Buddha has left it in his heart. I don't know how many times I've done this, follow me, I'll take you out the dog hole. Wu Qi waved his big iron fan-like hand and beckoned Zhang Yue to follow.
Zhang Yue has the feeling of dreaming back to his childhood, he often did this in the village when he was a child, but instead of sneaking away to the mountains, he ran to the beach to catch fish.
The two of them walked lightly all the way, for fear of waking up the others, and they were violating the rules. Zhang Yue followed Wu Qi to turn left and right, and finally came to a wall next to the firewood room, where some useless wet firewood was piled up. Wu Qi rubbed his hands, very excited, he first carefully pulled away the firewood, trying not to make a sound.
Wu Qi pointed to the small hole covered in weeds, "Look, this is it, my secret passage!" β
Zhang Yue looked at the entrance of the cave, then at Wu Qi, and expressed great doubt, "Are you sure you can get in?" β
Wu Qi smiled mysteriously, "Although I am fat, I still have a little tricks, you can see it, don't look away." As he spoke, he recited the mantra, and Zhang Yue only felt a flower in front of him, Wu Qi's huge body was gone, and only a puppy was sticking out his tongue and circling under his feet.
"Yo? Transfiguration? Zhang Yue lowered her head and touched the puppy's head in a matter-of-fact manner. Wu Qi knew that Zhang Yue was teasing herself, and immediately screamed a few times to express her resistance. Seeing this, Zhang Yue stopped making trouble, and also made a mantra, turning into a kitten, meowing, licking her paws, but playing the kitten's cute temperament perfectly.
A cat and a dog drilled through the hole, and Wu Qi blew on the hole as he left, and the wet wood and weeds returned to their original state, and the hole was covered again, and then the two cute little animals ran away.
The back mountain is not far away, and the two of them ran for less than half an hour before they arrived. Surrounded by towering trees, they make strange noises in the night breeze, and from time to time you can hear bursts of crying and mourning.
If a timid person comes in here, I'm afraid I'm going to be scared and my legs will go limp. But Zhang Yue and Wu Qi are obviously not ordinary people. On the contrary, the two of them admired the hazy moon in the sky with great interest, and looked up through the branches and leaves, as if someone had carved a beautiful pattern on the moon.
"I think of a poem." Wu Qi suddenly became poetic, put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and said: "Undress and sleep, enter the house by moonlight, set off happily, and read ...... What are you reading? β
Zhang Yue smiled and continued: "Those who have nothing to do with pleasure, so they went to Chengtian Temple to find Zhang Huaimin......
Wu Qi waved his hand and interrupted: "No, no, it should be that I went to the Scripture Pavilion to find Zhang Yue, Zhang Yue has not slept either, and he is walking in the back mountain...... And then, then, you move on. β
"Let's go eat peaches, I'm so hungry." Zhang Yue thought about the sentence behind it, and found that it was not easy to change, so he decisively changed the topic, he was an undergraduate student majoring in literature, and he didn't want to be despised. Even though, he hasn't been back to campus for a long time.
"It's here!"
Wu Yan pushed aside the dense branches in front of him, and a ray of light shot out without warning. Unprepared, Zhang Yue also caught her eyes and was shaken, "This is?" β
Wu Qi smiled proudly: "Hey, hey, have you heard of Xanadu?" Come on, you are about to open the door to a new world. Zhang Yue smiled helplessly, but she was not angry, and followed Wu Qi into this magical light.
The first feeling I feel when I enter this world is incense. Bursts of fruity fragrance wrapped around the tip of the nose, no longer teasing your taste all the time, Zhang Yue licked her mouth, and found that she couldn't hold back the throbbing tongue in her mouth.
Immediately after, there is a full of rosΓ©. At a glance, you can't see the camera, only the peaches and peach blossoms fluttering gently on the branches, and the thick trunks are submerged in peach, and before you know it, they are out of view.
Zhang Yue sighed: "What a paradise! Here, I don't even think the abbot knows! Saying that, Zhang Yue indifferently opened her black and white pupils, looking at Wu Qi, her black and white eyes revealed a faint rhyme, which made people can't help but sink at a glance.
Wu Qi looked directly at Zhang Yue's black and white pupils calmly, holding the freshly picked peach in his hand, "Don't you taste it?" It's delicious, you can pick the peaches here, and no one will say anything about you. β
"Why did you bring me here?"
"Aren't you hungry? I'll take you to eat peaches! β
Zhang Yue pulled out Murayu, a layer of black was attached to the blade, exuding a yin and evil aura, he held Murayu, the tip of the knife pointed at Wu Yan's throat, "I am willing to trust someone, but there is no reason to help me, I dare not accept it." β
Wu Qi's smile gradually solidified, he took a bite of the peach, the sweet juice flowed out of his lips and teeth, he wiped his mouth indiscriminately, and sighed: "You squinting eyes, you are all monsters, can't you be simple?" Always thinking that someone is harming you, being victimized with paranoia? β
Zhang Yue didn't take back the knife, he still held it steadily, the tip of the knife was swallowed with black swords, which made Wu Yu's throat tight, he couldn't help but take a few steps back, and said: "Put the knife down first, if I wanted to be unfavorable to you, I would have done it a long time ago, why bother with you here, you come to a place with me, let's sit down and talk slowly." β
Zhang Yue hesitated for a while, but still followed.
The two walked into the depths of the peach forest, and the clouds and mist under their feet were like walking in a fairyland. Legend has it that there is a peach orchard in the heavenly court, but I'm afraid it's just that. Wu Qi found a peach tree, jumped lightly, jumped on the branch, groped among the peaches of the tree, and found him a vat of wine.
"Next!" Wu Qi threw it back at will, and he didn't worry about falling and shattering. Fortunately, Zhang Yue still listened to him, and caught the wine thrown down one by one, Zhang Yue counted it, a total of five cylinders, which is really a lot.
Wu Qi jumped down lightly, and the soles of his feet landed without making a sound. Zhang Yue couldn't help but tighten his grip on Cun Yu's hand a little, and he felt more and more that this big man was not simple.
"I brewed my own peach blossom brew, why don't you have it?" Wu Qi patted off the mud seal on the wine vat, and suddenly, the aroma of the wine overflowed, mixed with the floral and fruity aroma, which made people intoxicated. Zhang Yue didn't dare to imagine how many heroes could get drunk after drinking this wine.
Zhang Yue smiled: "Good wine is good wine, but I'm afraid of getting drunk." β
Wu Qi glanced at Zhang Yue, scratched his head, didn't care about him anymore, grabbed a vat of wine first, and poured it with his head up. I saw Wu Qi constantly rolling, and the wine rolled down his body through his throat, and the gurgling sound was really hooking.
"Hiccup......" Wu Qi looked at Zhang Yue, and spit out a mouthful of turbid air with satisfaction, his face flushed, "Hehehe, this is all good wine, if you don't drink it, I can finish it alone, when the time comes, don't cry and talk to me!" β
Zhang Yue thought about it, and finally picked up a vat of wine, not that he couldn't resist the temptation, but that he wanted to see what tricks this martial artist could play.
When the wine enters the throat, the first thing is a burst of fruity aroma that bursts between the lips and teeth, and this feeling is more enjoyable than eating raw peaches. The liquor rolled down into the stomach, and the fierceness of the wine began to gradually appear, as if a fire was lit in the stomach, the whole body was hot, and even white gas was bubbling between the pores contraction, Zhang Yue's nose twitched, and he found that he was covered with the fragrance of wine.
"How?"
"Good wine. You haven't answered my question, though. Zhang Yue poured the wine vat into his mouth with one hand, and pointed at Wu Yan with the other hand with the village rain, but he did not forget his purpose.
Wu Qi looked at the blade with black flames, and said angrily: "You are so kind to the benefactor who invited you to drink?" β
Zhang Yue's face is really thick, and her hand holding the knife is not shaking. Seeing this, Wu Qi had no choice but to lose, believing that if he didn't answer seriously, the strange knife in Zhang Yue's hand would cut at him.
"I'm sorry, I lied to you before, but I'm a prisoner just like you. I want to jailbreak. Wu Qi hugged the wine vat, his face was full of pink, and said.
"Jailbreak? Do you want me to help you? Zhang Yue also put down the wine tank, wiped her mouth, and said.
Wu Qi knew that there was no way to hide it anymore, so he simply let go and said: "This Shaolin Temple is ostensibly a temple to transcend sinners and guide them to goodness, but in fact it is a prison that seals the souls of sinners. Here, it is not the human body that is really tormented, but the human soul. You've been to the Buddha Hall, and you've copied the Buddhist scriptures, so you should know the power of the scriptures. The prisoners here, except for me and you, are probably already the living dead. This place is not for people at all, and I know that I have committed a crime, but I would rather die than become a puppet, so I must escape from prison. β
Zhang Yue took back the village rain, picked up the half-drunk wine, and turned around to leave, "I'm sorry, I'm here to serve my sentence, behave well, you can leave after the sentence is over, there are still people waiting for me outside." β
"Do you really think they're going to let you go?"
