Chapter 51: Heading North

Chu-Jin junction, Kono.

The terrain here is flat, the field of vision is broad, a big river with rolling waves flows mightily, at this time it is the autumn season, the four fields are withered and yellow, overlooking from the sky, the big river is like a jade belt meandering on the earth.

The banks of the sparkling river.

The fields were all over and overgrown with weeds, and a long stream of tents was stationed, and the noise of the people in them was mixed with the noise of the cookers, and the smoke of the cooking rose from them, and was blown away by the strong wind, revealing the sky high and cloudy.

From time to time, a large group of people formed a long line and converged.

This is the place where the princes of the Chu King will be in the alliance, and with the passage of time, the respondents will gather, and the surrounding princes and lords want to come and get a piece of the pie, and bring their own retainers and warriors to the alliance.

Because of the different geographical locations of various countries, this place is dominated by the Chu army.

The princes' armies are all on their own borders, so that the Great Jin Dynasty is like a turtle in an urn, in a situation of siege on all sides, at this time the alliance is to formulate a strategy, arrange the proportion of each family's responsibility and the division of interests after the war.

At present, the Jin Kingdom has not yet been destroyed, but it is like a fish under the sword, and it is regarded as a bag by the princes.

……

"The coach of the Xia Kingdom this time is said to be from the Taixue Palace."

In the wine shop, a table of rangers wearing cloth clothes and hanging swords from their waists were talking, and one of the men heard this, put down the porcelain bowl in his hand, and boasted: "I don't know about this." ”

"Coach of Xia Kingdom, Amber is the son of Amber!"

He saw that everyone was looking at him curiously, and suddenly looked a little proud, and he had the intention to show off: "This news came out not long ago, but few people know that just over ten days ago, this person was named the chief commander by King Xia and made an alliance with the princes on his behalf. ”

"And this person and Xie Yun, who assassinated Jin Wangmin, are the same brothers."

He hiccuped as he spoke, picked up the porcelain bowl and took a sip of the soup inside, and heard a ranger at the same table ask, "Amber Gongzi?" ”

"This amber capital, isn't it a place where flawless glass, snow sugar, refined salt and other things are produced?"

Everyone was surprised when they heard this, and the man before was about to speak, but when he saw that the other party said it first, he immediately rushed to say: "Yes, but you can know who created the things you say?" ”

"I don't know."

Nowadays, snow sugar, refined salt and other things are still circulating among the powerful, although the people at the bottom have heard of it, but few have seen the real thing, the people at the same table have deliberately chimed, so they followed the words of this man and asked: "Do you even know this, the fourth?" ”

"Then can there be a fake?"

The man who was replaced by the fourth looked proud and said: "I once escorted the merchant to transport goods, and I heard the principal say that this glass, refined salt, snow sugar and other things were made for Master Qin Mo, a disciple of the Taishang Palace. ”

"Do you know that Master Qin Mo is now being named the Great Sikong by the King of Chu?"

He said teasingly: "A few days ago, I heard the news that the Great Seal of the Xia King, in addition to the title of the Master of Amber Capital, who is also the commander of the Xia Kingdom, and the chief of the Xia State Warriors, Master Qin Mo was named the Great Sikong!" ”

"This time, the king of Chu will ally the princes to attack Jin, and it is said that the Xia State will send 50,000 troops!"

Everyone took over the conversation: "After all, the Xia Kingdom is a small country, not as powerful as Liang, Yu, Chu and other ten thousand powers, this time the princes will join the alliance, and it is rumored that the coalition army is as high as more than 400,000, I am afraid that the Jin Kingdom is really going to be destroyed." ”

……

"Amber is moving fast."

In a corner of the wine shop, the light here is a little dim, and a big black cow can be seen prostrate on the ground, and a person and an ape are sitting opposite each other in front of the table.

The white ape's chest shook at this time, and his mouth spoke.

It heard the discussion of the group of rangers on the side, and said to the person in front of him who couldn't see his face clearly, "Master, where are we going next?" Do you want to see if the princes will hunt Yu Jin? ”

"No need."

Zhou Wuwu's brows furrowed.

There were several wooden plates on the table in front of him, and there was a black ceramic urn on the side, and there was a faint smell of wine from it, Zhou Wuwu looked at the wine poured out of the porcelain bowl in front of him, and sighed slightly: "The wine brewed in this shop is really hard to swallow, and it can even be said to be an aged wine." ”

I am accustomed to drinking the sake brewed by the modern technology of the earth.

When you drink this wine that has only been fermented and simply filtered, you will immediately feel sour and difficult to enter your throat, and there are unfiltered wine residues in it, which is extremely disgusting.

"The princes are currently in alliance, there is nothing to see."

Zhou Wuwu was too lazy to touch the so-called aged wine in the urn again, and said lightly at this time: "Now that winter is not far away, the big war will start soon, Amber and others are outnumbered, this hunt is just a foil, with the strength of the princes of the alliance, the Jin Kingdom will die, but there is a lot of nonsense afterwards." ”

"Master."

Hearing this, the white ape asked, "In that case, where to go next?" ”

Zhou Wuwu stretched out his hand and patted the big black who was napping on the ground, got up and said: "This time I went down the mountain, mainly to travel, the vassal states of the southern region have all seen it, now go to the northern land to have a look." ”

"Hmm!"

The big black nose twitched, opened his eyelids, and said, "Master, it seems that Shao Yang's little fat man is in the northern Yongguo, why don't you go there and have a look." ”

Zhou Wuwu sat cross-legged on the big black back, and said lightly: "Okay, let's go." ”

The big black voice stood up from the ground, swayed and walked out, the white ape frowned and pondered at the plate of food on the table in front of him, saw that the master was about to leave, immediately shook his head, took an unfinished roast chicken and a plate of salt beans from it, carried the urn of unfinished old wine, got up and followed.

The people in the liquor store are noisy, but they are familiar with this strange combination, and let it swagger through it.

It's been a long time.

A servant suddenly noticed the dining table in the corner.

Seeing that the cups and plates on it were in a mess, and there was no one on the side, his face suddenly became extremely bad, because he remembered that the people at the table did not pay, and at this time he thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't remember the appearance of this group of people.

The little guy gritted his teeth and said: "These bastards who eat white food dare to run!" ”

……

"Xiaobai."

Zhou Wuwu sat cross-legged on the big black back, not knowing that he was being held a grudge at this time.

He looked at the white ape who was carrying a wine jar on the side, holding roast chicken and a plate of salt beans, and said with a smile: "I didn't know that you were fond of these before, but this wine is too bad, next time I go to find Qin Mo, he will make a lot of good wine there." ”

"Okay."

The white ape nodded and said, "Although this wine is extremely strange in its mouth, it is quite strange afterward. ”

It is a different kind of origin, although I heard some ridicule in the master's words, but I didn't understand the specific meaning, so my expression was quite disappreciative, and I was very frank and frank about my personal feelings, I only felt that although this wine tasted bad, the more I drank it, the more refreshed it was.

"When I come back in the future, I can ask Qin Mo for some."

The white ape secretly decided in his heart that it was eating salt beans and drinking wine at the same time, and then it felt like an electric current was running through its back, and it suddenly squinted its eyes to experience the crisp and refreshing feeling.

"Here, let me taste it too."

Big Black poked his head over, looking curious.

It can last a day after eating a meal, and it has been sleeping in the Shicai wine store and has not eaten, and when I heard Xiaobai's words, I wanted to experience it.

"Open your mouth."

As the white ape spoke, he saw the big black neck stretching out of the elder, opening his big mouth, tilting the wine jar in his hand, and pouring the small half of the jar into it.

"Big Black, how do you feel? Does it feel like being electrified? ”

The white ape looked serious, asked seriously, and then saw Da Hei burp comfortably, spewed out a white vapor containing the smell of wine, smashed his mouth, and said, "It's too little, I can't feel it." ”

Seeing the ape and bull in front of him behaving like this, the corners of Zhou Wuwu's eyes twitched.

"These two ......"

Zhou Wuwu stiffened his face, although he knew that even if the animal was anthropomorphic, it was not a real human being, but when he saw this behavior, he immediately felt a grotesque and absurd feeling.
