Volume 1: Bloody Joy Chapter 19: The Fierce Battle (I)
Transparent glass glasses, warm fragrant nephrite lingers, candle shadows and lights are psychedelic, and the widows are homeless.
Saying that, Zhanhong reached out and snatched the wine glass in Zeluo's hand, raised his head and drank it all, the sweet elixir line entered his throat, and a ball of fire traveled in his chest, driving away the annoying headache.
"Thank you for the wine. Zhanhong got up and left, leaving only Zeluo at the table to squint at Zhanhong's back.

"Look who this is!"
In the hall of this Wenxiang Building, there is a whole wall of wine racks made of ebony wood from thousands of years of Tibet, and on the wine shelves are placed all kinds of wine storage utensils of various materials, including wooden, pottery, metal, jade, wine jars, wine bottles and wine jugs, as well as a whole row of green glass wine bottles produced in Western Luoba countries.
The woman's voice came from the side of the wine rack, and then a fragrant breeze blew on her face, and the petite and delicate Ren Hong swayed willows with the wind, slowly walked to Zhanhong, and the jade finger stretched out her nickname and gently stroked Zhanhong's arm and said softly: "Brother, why don't you say hello when you come to me." ”
Zhanhong smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time and you're still so beautiful." Ren Hong laughed when she heard this, and said: "You will make people happy! I am old, that is, you can still say that I am beautiful with a clear conscience." After that, she put away her smile and said, "You have made enough noise in the past two days. ”
"I didn't want to do anything with them. Zhanhong still kept smiling, and said, "But they want to mess with me." ”
Ren Hong beckoned the maid to bring two glasses of white wine, one for herself, and the other for Zhan Hong and said, "Have you ever thought that it was not they who provoked you, but you who provoked them?"
"I have never provoked anyone. Zhanhong smiled and took the wine glass, and drank most of the wine in one gulp.
Ren Hong's eyes stared at Zhanhong's eyes with affection and asked, "Those who died at your hands were the ones who provoked you?"
Zhanhong didn't answer, the smile on his face gradually faded, he raised his wine glass and drank all the wine in the glass, then handed the wine glass back to Ren Hong, turned around and walked towards the door without saying a word.
Ren Hong exhaled lightly and said to Zhanhong's back: "You have to be careful......"

The Northern Dynasty Zhengguo went to Beijing Xidu, and the whole city was shrouded in rain for several days, and the temperature dropped sharply.
Zhi Xi sat by the window on the top floor of the third floor of the branch of the West City Border City Chamber of Commerce, the street outside the window was bustling with people, he fiddled with the golden gourd hammer in his right hand, and hummed the Western Regions song boringly.
"Brother Hu, the brothers on the first and second floors are ready. The cow who spoke was tall and big, with blonde hair and golden beard, snow-white skin, a pair of blue eyes, and then looked at the iron clip on his body, and the giant sword with both hands on his back, and walked with a really "clanging" sound, this man walked to the window and looked at the sky and said: "Well, this rain reminds me of my hometown." ”
Zhiyan said with interest: "Hometown...... I don't know where I was born, Gartnu, tell me about your hometown. ”
Gartnu still looked at the rainy sky and said, "Well, my hometown has to cross the Narrow Sea by boat, and the northwest wind blows only in autumn during the year, but by the wind, you can go to the port of Mugu in three days, and there are many beautiful girls in the bars of the port, who are both wild and generous, with round buttocks, thin waists, and bulging breasts. Gartnut couldn't help but laugh at this, and as he laughed, he continued, "If you go, you can drink with them, and you can tell them about your fantastic experiences abroad, and if they listen to it, you will not be alone tonight." ”
Zhiyan was a little fascinated and urged Gartnut to continue.
"Well, you've had a wonderful night, and the next day you'll have to get on your horse early, and head north from Mugu Harbor through the valleys and forests to the valley plain, where the Three Forks of the Blue River, the Green River, and the Red River flow, and the Three Forks of the River rush eastward, and finally flow into Crab Bay, and the Nüquan City is located on the banks of the Three Forks, and it is only a day's journey from Mugu Port to this Nüquan City.
O Nüquan City, the wine brewed in our country of Roba is famous, sweet and delicious, and with fried potatoes and fried fish, you can drink it until dawn in Nüquan City, as long as you like.
On the third day you won't see the sun, rest assured, you're not drunk, the sun is just hiding behind the clouds, and then the sky starts to rain, and the rain comes and goes, and the rain will accompany you on the rest of your journey.
Walk along the Three Forks River and then to the northwest, half a day to reach Salt Water Town, which is where I was born, Salt Water Town can go north to the Great Wall, to the south to the capital of Loba's King's Landing, that can be said to be in all directions, there are many hotels and bars in the town, you can always see people you don't know in the town, listen to them tell some magical things, you will live a very fresh life every day.
Every morning my mother would warm up the milk and fry the quiche to wake me up, and before I could finish eating, my father would push me into the rain, and he would always tell me to go to his blacksmith shop to make a fire, and then my mother would scold my father and put a raincoat on me. Gartnu's eyes moistened as he spoke.
Zhiyan's heart seemed to be hammered by something, he turned his head indifferently to look out the window, and whispered: "It's really enviable, I've never seen my parents." ”
After hearing this, Gartnu knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes and said to Zhiyan: "Brother Yan, do you think the people we are waiting for will come?"
Zhiyan bit his lip and replied, "How can a man know what a wolf thinks." ”
At this moment, a scream came from downstairs of the Chamber of Commerce in this city.

Let's say that the rain is lighter, and it drips from the sky without hurry.
In the past, there were only two guards on duty at the main entrance of the Xidu Border City Chamber of Commerce Branch, but now there were two more people than before in the evening of this day.
"Well, it's your luck to be chosen to work beside the young master. A tall guard spoke jealously to the two men beside him, "You guys are better off with the big guys than we are the janitors." ”
Obviously, the guards around the two young masters didn't want to take the tall guard's words, and one of the bearded strong men interjected: "I heard that there are a few new women from Gou Liguo in the Peony Building on Front Street. When the tall guard heard this, he became energetic, and excitedly pinched his waist and said: "I know, I know, I know! I went to see it the day before yesterday when I was off duty! Don't you see it, that soft breast...... The thin man who was with the bearded strong man frowned, and interrupted coldly: "Be serious! We are not here to chat!"
The tall guard pursed his lips when he heard this, and whispered, "Hmph, the dog next to this young master can bark." ”
"What the fuck are you talking about?" the thin guard glared and put his hand on the hilt of his sword.
"I said, I said you'd scream!" said the tall guard had a hippie smile, and his hand was naturally on the handle of the knife.
"What a big guts!" After the thin guard finished speaking, he pulled out his scimitar and slashed at the tall guard, and then saw that the tall guard was also tough, and directly pulled out the scimitar that was chopped.
Seeing that the fight broke out, the other two people next to him were busy fighting, and the bearded guard smiled: "Brother, don't be angry! It's all a joke! Why bother ......"
Before the word "knife" could be spoken, the beard only felt a chill in his throat, and then his mouth was sweet, and he reached out and touched a crossbow arrow stuck in his neck, and before he could react, another crossbow arrow broke through the air and was nailed to his temple.
The tall guard and another guard hurriedly pulled out the defensive horizontal knife in front of their chests and stared nervously at the street at the gate of the border city chamber of commerce, but seeing the crowd on the street or in a hurry or traveling on the street, a group of three and five holding umbrellas or wearing coats and raincoats hurried, and the bells of ox and carriage passing by from time to time dispersed, and the sound of selling and piano music blended into the rain, which was really ethereal and nothing.
The thin man guard dragged the bearded corpse backwards, and he shouted repeatedly: "Retreat, retreat, quickly return to the house!" As soon as he said this, two more crossbow arrows flew out of nowhere, one crossbow arrow was not biased and crooked in the chest of the tall guard, and the other crossbow arrow grazed his shoulder and nailed to the door panel behind him, and the three of them dragged the corpse and hurriedly retreated to the first floor of the Chamber of Commerce, and then turned around and closed the door. At the same time, Zhixi and Gartnu, who heard the movement on the first floor, ran downstairs, only to see that everyone in the hall on the first floor looked at each other with swords in their hands. Even the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.
"Do you see who is coming?" Zhi asked the thin guard, and when he saw that he didn't speak, he just shook his head and stopped asking, and ordered the people around him: "Come here, help the big man to the back to heal the wounds." ”
The thin man's face turned pale as he hugged the bearded corpse, and Gartnu walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him: "Arovii, take your brother to the back hall too." The Arovii slowly put down his brother's corpse, took the scimitar on the side and stood up, his eyes were cold and returned to normal, he looked at Gartnu and said, "My brother is here with me, and we won't go there." ”

The rain curtain covers the border city chamber of commerce in Xiduxi City.
Not far from the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce, Zhan Hong was hiding in the crowd on the street, watching the door of the Chamber of Commerce close, and walking around the backyard of the Chamber of Commerce with a smile on his face.
Not long after, this Zhanhong had already come to the backyard of the border city chamber of commerce, looked up at the height of the backyard wall, it was indeed not high but not short, and he really didn't want to climb over the wall, so he turned around and walked to the back door of the chamber of commerce and stretched out his hand to call the door.
