Chapter 160: Wine Tonight

October 14, 16th year of Yuan Qi, Yangbei, Zhongzhou. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The sun shines on Huaxing City, reflecting everything very really. The noisy streets were full of military vehicles running back and forth, and groups of noisy people with anxious and angry faces.

This scene has been going on for many days.

According to the news from the Northern Wilderness, the Dark King's army, which had been winning at first, was suddenly trapped in the ice field. The follow-up army of Yangbei and the cavalry that rushed to the aid of the Beishan battalion in Zhongzhou were all defeated at the hands of the barbarians.

The people in Huaxing City have seen how imposing the battle of hundreds of thousands of troops assembled outside the city a month and a half ago was. But such a huge army that is enough to overturn rivers and seas, unload mountains and move mountains, can't retreat from the Northern Wilderness?

At first, most people thought it was a joke, but these days, when people look at these sergeants coming and going, their faces are more and more panicked, and they have no heroic spirit in the past, their hearts are gradually bottomless.

500,000 people, 500,000 people! All of them are young and strong in Yangbei, including the men of half of the families in Huaxing City.

Although the sky is fine, the clouds have risen from the bottom of my heart.

The crisis is getting worse every day, and there is a most terrifying and unwanted future in people's hearts.

The 500,000 people who were taken to the Northern Wilderness by the Dark King are really possible, and they can't come back......

......

At noon on this day, among the crowd entering the city, there was a middle-aged scribe dressed in a dark blue robe and carrying a wooden cane, with a tired face mixed with it.

When they got out of Moon City, the congested pedestrian queue suddenly parted ways, and the scribe was squeezed to the side of the street, so he didn't fall again.

"It's really chaotic, this scene seems to be no different from the past......" Looking at the crowd in front of him, Chu Yunsheng smiled with emotion.

After a short rest, he began to move forward again, and although he walked simply, his speed was even slower than when he had set up his formation in Wangbei City.

However, Chu Yunsheng's expression was not half abrupt, and under the deep tiredness, there was still a vague sense of joy and longing. He seemed to be walking around the street at random, but sometimes he suddenly stopped, and then turned into the alley on the side, walking towards no trace, but Chu Yunsheng did not hesitate at all, as if something was leading him all the way.

In the end, Chu Yunsheng stopped outside an open space.

In a city full of chaos, it is quiet. In the middle of the open space in front of us, there is a stone statue about two feet tall standing with its head held high.

In front of the statue, there is no monument or brand, and it seems that no one takes care of it, and it is full of traces of wind and frost and bird droppings. The stone used, as well as the carving, are not very good. The subtle textures, and even the person's physiognomy, were extremely blurred. However, in this man's hand, he still holds a knife, a very large and extremely wide knife. On the blade, cloud-like lines can be faintly seen.

"Long time no see, He Qian ......"

Chu Yunsheng smiled silently and stepped forward. Now, his eyes were fixed on a young man standing beneath the stone statue.

"New Far Traveler, I've finally arrived. Until you are fully awakened, I will give you all that I have......"

......

The sound of the "tuk tuk" wooden cane tapping the ground, from far and near, became clearer and clearer in the ears.

The young man who was looking at the stone statue turned his head curiously, and looked up and down at the kind-looking scribe who seemed to be about to speak to him.

"This little brother, look at your bones and be amazed, you are a cultivator like no other. The important task of eliminating evil and promoting good, and maintaining the peace of Shenzhou, will depend on you in the future. ā€

The scribe stepped forward and said, raising his hand, and showing him a book that had been stunned by the words.

"I happen to have a cheat book here, which is very suitable for you. With your talents, you will be able to carry it forward, and you will only receive two taels of silver, and this secret book will be yours. ā€

ā€œ...... Huh?"

Only then did the young man gather his gaze and look intently.

The book in front of me is called "The Encyclopedia of Shenzhou Formation".

ā€œ...... Bored. ā€

The boy shook his head, glanced at the amiable-looking scribe, who was acting rather strangely, and prepared to leave.

"Wait. Voices rang out from behind again. He frowned impatiently and looked back.

"Do you think this book is not for you......?"

The boy blinked vigorously and slowly looked over:

Overview of the Celestial Dance......

"Beichen Jiangang Complete Version"......

Memoirs of the Reign of the World......

"Binding of the Min System Body Method"......

"The History of the Shenwu Empire" ......

"Twenty Days Teach You to Assassinate"......

"The Self-cultivation of the Teacher" ......

"Liang Wang's Military Strategy" ......

The boy was stunned......

......

Dongzhou, looking at the north city.

It's evening, and the busy day is about to pass, but compared with the past, the city is finally a little more vibrant.

At this time, in this tavern in the east of the city, there is an extraordinary bustle.

"Hello brothers!"

"Five Leaders!"

"Eight horses!"

"Six-six-six!"

"Haha...... Drink!"

In the midst of cheers, Ji Hua raised his hand and raised his head, and grunted half a bowl of wine.

"Yu Xin, fierce!" Jiudao and Yin Chiyuan Nange praised at the same time.

"Seven to seven, seven to seven!"

Chen Wenhao and a group of ghost foxes slapped the table with the city defense army and shouted: "Brother Ji, hold on!"

"Haha, it's worthy of the ...... who is accustomed to using King He's light knife" Ji Hua put the bowl and gave Yu Xin a thumbs up.

"I've won a prize!" Yu Xin laughed and arched his hand.

Every punch between the two of them is extremely short and intense. Every time they shouted, Ji Hua and Yu Xin changed more than a dozen gestures in an instant, and they still needed to keep no mistakes.

"Come on, come on!" Ji Hua poured the wine again, and saluted everyone in the room, "Shizi, Nan Shizi, all the heroes of the gods, and all the brothers of the city defense army, come, do this bowl!"

"Wait!" In the crowd that stood up, Jiudao stretched out one hand and shouted, "Tell me first, what are you doing for?!"

"For the sake of ...... Victory!" Yin Chiyuan said.

"For victory!" everyone raised their glasses and drank at the same time.

After that, the people were still standing, and the wine was full again.

"This bowl of wine, for ...... Sacrifice! Those who go before us, go all the way!" Yin Chiyuan raised his glass and shouted.

"Go all the way!" everyone drank again.

"This third bowl, for the sake of ......" Yin Chiyuan paused, twenty or thirty people in the room, you look at me and I look at you, but they didn't come up with any words.

"It's all in the wine. The wood on the side suddenly interjected.

"It's all in the wine!" laughed, and the glass was empty.

After taking a seat, the atmosphere became more harmonious. The big guys no longer just watched Ji Hua and Yu Xin compete, they all found their opponents, and then switched seats with each other after a round, no one was pulled down, and dozens of jars of wine were empty quickly.

......

In a corner of the room, Qiu Yi didn't sit at the table here, only drank the three glasses of wine with everyone outside, and then sat alone and smoked silently. At this time, seeing the nine knives cat on his waist, he sneakily came to his side, "Hey, Boss Qiu, what is the result of your duel with the fox king today?"

Unexpectedly, Yu Xin Jihua and the others were all shrouded in Qiu Yili in their eyes, and their ears were always standing up to this side. Hearing Jiudao's words, Yu Xin laughed, pointed at Qiu Yi and said, "What is the result?"

Jiudao fell, and said disappointedly: "I still lost......"

"Who said you lost?" Ji Hua immediately waved his hand, "Although it is the Qiu brother who the general stabbed first, as long as the He Wang knife is released, the knife move will not be broken, if the general does not use the instantaneous, he will inevitably be slashed by the sword wind later! I have opened my eyes today, haha!"

"Oh~ That's not bad, Boss Qiu, it's powerful enough!" Nine Dao eyebrows smiled.

"After three years, next time, it's a real sword...... Qiu Yi tugged at the corners of his mouth, Huo Di got up and sat down, looking for an empty cup.

"The wounds have been split twice, are you looking for death?" Yu Xin glared at him.

"One cup, don't get in the way!" Qiu Yi immediately took a glass after pouring the wine.

"Hero!" Ji Hua and the others raised their voices in admiration.

"After drinking this cup, there are three more glasses!" Qiu Yi poured again.

"Big hero!" Ji Hua and the others hissed in admiration.

After greeting him around, Qiu Yi turned around and shouted, "Yan Li, You Yun, just watch? Take a seat!"

ā€œ...... Come on!" You Yun couldn't hold it back first, slapped open the mud seal of a jar of wine, picked it up and rushed into the crowd. When the table was full of wine, he greeted again, "Senior brother, together!"

"Come on, be happy!" Nine Blades shook his head.

Yan Li looked at the battle situation in the house, and seemed to have some intentions, turned his face to look at Zhen Tao, and discussed: "Then, I ...... too"

Zhen Tao frowned and glared at him, "Don't drink too much!"

"Good. Yan Li was overjoyed, moved a chair beside him, and also came over.

......

After three rounds of drinking, everyone was drunk. The reason for this is that because of Wei Yuanhai's old wine, coupled with the fact that everyone has not been restrained, and because of the hard work of these days, he suddenly relaxed, and he felt that his body and mind were overdrawn.

Ji Hua was also in a daze at this time, from the beginning, the people who came to his side to toast never stopped, and Ji Hua also drank it one by one. At this moment, another person sat next to him, but he did not speak first.

Ji Hua subconsciously raised the bowl, raised his arm to wrap his arms around the person, and then turned his head to look at him a few times, and said in surprise: "Hey, this brother, you look ...... Haha, it really looks like our boss......"

"I think I am. Liang Zhen'a said.

ā€œ...... General?!" The people in the room were all silent and startled, and then hurriedly got up in embarrassment.

"General, you, why are you here, are you here......" Ji Hua swallowed his saliva and said with some stumbling.

"Naturally, it's a feast. Liang Zhen'a looked at Zhen Tao outside the crowd and asked, "But there is still a wine cup?"

ā€œ...... Yes, yes. Zhen Tao blinked, nodded hurriedly, and ran into the back room to rummage.

......

After three rounds, there were three rounds, and at this point, half of the people in the restaurant were down.

Yan Li took a cup from Chen Wenhao, took a deep breath and drank it dry, and then looked at it in a blink of an eye, and You Yun next to him had already fallen on the table. Yan Li shook his head, stood up with his hand on the wall, and walked out of the noisy crowd.

Zhen Tao was leaning against the counter, holding his arms and squinting at him, and said, "In the past, during the New Year's holidays, you just had a drink...... I didn't see it, but I had a lot of two hits......"

"Uh...... How much is that?" Yan Li grinned at her.

"Hmph, what a lot, it's ...... words" Zhen Taozheng said, seeing his toothy smile, his eyes flashed with some surprise and inexplicable brilliance, and his voice turned to bring out a rare sweet and greasy taste.

Yan Li didn't speak again, just straightened his eyes and looked at her carefully. Under the candlelight, Zhen Tao's face is like porcelain jade, and there is more soft and warm that porcelain jade does not have. Aiming at the few hairs that had escaped from her bun, Yan Li couldn't help but raise his hand and toggle them aside.

Zhen Tao's face turned red, "...... not serious"

Yan Li came back to his senses for a while, and felt ashamed, and after a few sounds, he found an excuse to clean up the empty plate and fled. Leaving Zhen Tao alone in the same place, his face was flushed, he was annoyed and smiling, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

......

Half a quarter of an hour later.

When the banquet was still booming, a ghost fox hurriedly entered the house and walked straight to Liang Zhen'a.

"General, the red cylinder is urgent!" he presented the things in his hand and said quickly, "It should be a harrier flying from Aonohara." ā€

Liang Zhen'a narrowed his eyes, immediately took it, took out the paper roll in the tube, unfolded it and looked down.

A moment later, his phoenix eyes suddenly opened, and his expression changed drastically!

Ji Hua and the others, as soon as they saw him who had never shown his hole on the ground, they were all shocked, and the wine diluted a little.

ā€œ...... General?" Ji Hua looked at the Fox King, who had not made any movements or words since receiving the letter, hesitated for a long time, and still asked tentatively.

I saw that the fox king slowly accepted the secret letter, and his expression was restored, and the eyes that were once again combined into thin slits, his gaze could no longer read at all.

......

The enthusiasm dissipated very quickly, and everyone's hearts seemed to be tied with a thousand heavy things.

In silence, the fox king stretched out his hand and lifted it up.

"Pour the wine. ā€

Chen Wenhao next to him hurriedly did as he was told.

"One last cup. The fox king looked at the people in the house for a week, and everyone immediately raised their glasses.

"Go back to the camp, set off early in the morning, and rush to Yanggao County. The fox king drank the wine, dropped his hand, and turned around and walked out.

"When you arrive in the Western Continent, please greet He Chang'an on my behalf. By the time he spoke, he was gone.

Seeing this, Yin Chiyuan, Ji Hua and the others couldn't sit still, and after beckoning everyone to have another drink, they all said goodbye and left quickly.

......

The tavern suddenly became deserted, and looking around the room, it was a little cold.

"Well, why is there no one all of a sudden...... "Nine Blades muttered as he hugged the jar and kicked the unconscious wood on his chair.

"It seems that there is a big problem in the Aono Plains in the northeast...... Qiu Yi thought about it.

"Is the combat power of the Northern Yan Iron Cavalry beyond Dongzhou's estimate?" or ......" Yu Xin paused for a moment and said in a deep voice: "King Liang, or Jinghu, has encountered an intractable problem......

"There's no need to guess too much, if it's really a big deal, we'll know soon......" Qiu Yi said, relighting the smoke pot.
