"Shopkeeper, a bowl of wine. ”

A crisp call came from the darkness, and the shopkeeper who was sitting at the stone table and bowed his head to wipe the pot raised his head, only to find that a young man was standing outside the half-hidden wooden door, and the darkness under the cover of the stone corridor outside the house and the glow of the three small candlesticks in the house were projected on his body at the same time, making him look like a ghost coming from the underworld, very unreal, and his uncertain face seemed to be stained with blood, if ordinary people saw it, most of them would have been frightened and screamed, but this shopkeeper was an old man who was used to staying here, he was not alarmed, he just hummed lightly, stood up, walked to the back of the counter, and picked up two wine jugs and put them on the counter。

"I have two kinds of spirit wine, Eight Steps and Immortal, which one do you want?"

The young man pushed the door and walked in, the shopkeeper squinted his eyes, and saw the appearance of the young man clearly, he was wearing a black gold-rimmed robe that was popular on the road, dusty, it seemed that he had just rushed a long way, with a sword on his back, a wine gourd tied around his waist, his face was a little tired, but he was still in good spirits, his eyes moved between the two wine jugs, "What is the difference between the two kinds of wine?"

Barbarians?

The shopkeeper frowned and explained, "The eight steps are very strong, and the immortal is softer, if the guest officer is not good at drinking, it is best to choose the immortal." ”

"Spirits?" the young man's eyes sparkled, and he thought for a moment, "Then bring me a bowl of each!"

"Good. ”

The shopkeeper is quick with his hands and feet, quickly take out two jade bowls, and pour them all steadily, this store is very real, the two bowls are half the size of a human head, when they are served, the color of the two bowls of wine is completely different, the eight steps are light red, and there is a very rushing wine smell from afar, and the immortal is slightly yellow, with a sweet aroma.

The shopkeeper wiped his hands, sat back down at the stone table in the corner, and continued to wipe the flask.

The young man shook the jade bowl, first drank a sip of the immortal, as the shopkeeper said, the wine was soft and sweet, it seemed to be made of some kind of spiritual fruit, and after the stomach, a thin spiritual energy rushed straight into the spiritual sea, for a long time, the satisfaction on the tongue and the pleasure of absorbing the spiritual energy blended, for the monk, this is really a very comfortable experience.

The young man took three sips in a row, exhaled a long breath comfortably, and looked at the quiet shopkeeper with some curiosity, "Shopkeeper, are you alone here?"

"Well, Xiaodian, I can't afford to invite Xiao Er, and I don't have many customers, so I'm enough for one person. The shopkeeper's voice was flat, with a calm that he was used to seeing strong winds and waves, but he actually looked like a middle-aged man, not the kind of age when he already knew the destiny of heaven, and the young man could also see that his realm was in the divine mind, and there were many such monks on the realm road, and he felt that he would not make any progress, so he simply gave up cultivation and sought other ways to make a living.

"But you're famous," the boy was a little puzzled, "I've heard someone introduce you!"

The middle-aged shopkeeper raised his head, and his expression finally changed a little, "You're also here to earn a bounty?"

The boy was really young, and the shopkeeper thought that he was just passing by, but he never thought that such a young man would choose such a dangerous path.

"Well," the boy nodded, scratching his head a little embarrassed, "it's just the first day here." ”

"Then you'd better go back," the shopkeeper stood up and raised his hand to take the bowl of eight steps, "This bowl of immortal is for you, let's go home after drinking." ”

The boy's eyes widened, "Why?"

"Do you know what this place is?" the shopkeeper sighed, he didn't want to be nosy, but he somehow had a good impression of the young man.

Maybe it's because the other party's eyes are indifferent and pure, just like he used to be.

"Of course, the front line against the Dark Realm Beasts," the young man held the jade bowl containing the Immortal Immortal tightly in both hands, as if he was afraid that the shopkeeper would also snatch the bowl of wine, "The four major sects have spent a lot of money to offer a reward! A realm beast of the Empty Bright Realm is worth half a realm coin! This is an extremely high price!"

Of course, this is an extremely high price, the shopkeeper has been in business for many years, although he is now selling wine, but he also did other businesses in his early years, and he is very clear about the market of world beast trading, generally speaking, dozens of complete empty realm beasts can be worth half a world coin, and here, a dark realm beast is worth so much money!

"No matter how high the price is, you have to have a life to earn and spend it!" The shopkeeper looked stern, "Do you know how many people have died here in the past month?"

"About tens of thousands?" guessed the young man, who had heard a lot of things from some monks who had just left the front, although he hadn't seen the battlefield with his own eyes. Love Me eBook

"More than seventy thousand. The shopkeeper has been rooted here for more than 20 years, and he is very well informed, and he persuades, "Why should you become a new number?"

"It's not just about making money," the boy shook his head, "and it's an experience." ”

"Experienced ......" The shopkeeper chewed on the word, and sighed after a while, "Is the guest officer from which major sect is from?

"No, no," the boy said with a smile, "I'm from the west. ”

"Barbarians?" asked the shopkeeper in a whisper, though he already had the answer in his mind.

"Sort of," the boy said vaguely, "but I didn't grow up in a barbarian. ”

The shopkeeper was silent for a moment, got up and brought back the bowl of wine, put it in front of the young man, and said in a muffled voice, "Drink." ”

The boy laughed, "Thank you, shopkeeper, I still like spirits very much, and it would be a pity not to drink them." ”

"You're not afraid of death?"

"Who is not afraid of death?" the boy asked rhetorically, "but I don't think I'm going to die here." ”

"I'm pretty confident. ”

"Fledgling," the young man happily picked up eight steps, took a small sip, and suddenly his face turned red, but he licked the corners of his mouth, raised his head and drank a big sip, after swallowing the wine, he sighed and patted the table, "This wine is enjoyable!"

The young man wiped the corners of his mouth and tasted the taste, as if he remembered something, "By the way, shopkeeper, you haven't said why, I have obviously heard many people mention your shop, I thought it was very popular, why is it so deserted?"

"Most people just come to drink, not here," the shopkeeper smiled bitterly, nodding left and right, "The conditions here are difficult, the environment is not good, I don't know how to cook some side dishes or anything, not many people are interested in drinking here, so you just came in and asked for two bowls, I thought you were just passing by and resting." ”

"Can you drink wine?" the young man grasped the point and took off the wine gourd from his waist, "Give me a gourd too." ”

"Which one?"

"Eight steps. The boy hesitated for a while, but chose the spirits.

The shopkeeper quickly filled it up, handed the wine gourd back, and when he saw that the young man wanted to withdraw the money, he shook his head, "Let's count it together next time." ”

The young man was stunned for a moment and laughed, "Okay, thank you shopkeeper." ”

"What's your name?" asked the shopkeeper as he walked out.

"Su Qi. The young man waved his hand, "Shopkeeper, see you in a few days." ”

After a while?

The shopkeeper sighed lightly, lowered his head and continued to wipe the flask.

Hopefully we'll see you again.
