Chapter 487: Cocktail Dialogue
Feasting on top of the Golden Palace of Treon City is countless times more magnificent than in a small guild hall, and Sutron also boasts that this can show his majesty as the overlord of the country. But today, there are only two people at the wine table in the huge palace, except for the symbolic sporadic guards standing on both sides of the door, there are only two people in the quiet hall.
"President Liu!" Salute quietly, Liu Xuanqing stepped into the hall with a calm face.
Sutron looked at him with a smile on his face, but there seemed to be some implication in it. After observing Liu Xuanqing for many days, he wanted to test enough at one time today, so he invited him to the banquet to drink. He deliberately let Xu Ao lead the "Black Cloud Knights" to Liu Xuanqing's mansion to invite him, and Xu Ao reported that Liu Xuanqing was not panicked, and he didn't even frown, so it can be said that his facial expression did not change from beginning to end.
Whether it is Liu Xuanqing's unusual heroic aura exuded from his body, or his psychological quality that is beyond ordinary people and is not shocked, Su Tren is deeply surprised and admired. Sutren, who has always been proud, never admires others, but there are two people who make him make an exception from the bottom of his heart, one is Xia Yanfeng who met by fate, and the other is Liu Xuanqing, who has not come from this high-definition yet!
"Brother Liu, please take a seat, you don't have to be polite. Sutron chuckled and waved his hand, signaling to Liu Xuanqing.
Liu Xuanqing pretended to be at a loss, looking like he was flattered and half-lost, and bowed respectfully before he sat down and faced Sutron.
There are already more than a dozen pots of hot shochu on the table, and there is no shortage of appetizers, and of course, there are many "cocktails" with bright colors in the red wine glasses.
Seeing that Liu Xuanqing's expression didn't seem to be very open, Su Telun couldn't help but smile: "Brother Liu didn't panic when he saw the Black Cloud Knight with a strong battle before, but now I'm alone here, why am I a little nervous?"
"Ah......" Liu Xuanqing seemed to have just come back to his senses, "Back to Brother Su, no matter how elite the Black Cloud Knight is, he is only a soldier, and Brother Su I is the hero, even if there are thousands of troops and horses, he can't reach it." There are thousands of soldiers, but there is only one great and wise hero. ”
"Hahahaha......" Sutron burst into laughter when he heard this, his laughter was wild and free, full of aura, and intimidating.
Liu Xuanqing's words seem to be praise and admiration for Sutren's brilliant achievements at first glance, and they are purely just words, but in fact, Sutrun will not take it for granted. Su Tron will not be confused by a few words of compliment and let down his vigilance, not to mention that it is not a compliment, because when Liu Xuanqing said this, he did not feel inferior at all, even if he was under the eaves, his low-key and unassuming, but faintly ubiquitous strong aura, almost equal to Su Tron!
"Brother Su?" Liu Xuanqing looked at him blankly, Su Telun nodded slightly, "Hmm", and he said calmly and low-key, "Brother Su treats me too warmly, but Brother Su, where can you see that I am very powerful? Liu himself doesn't know, what can be worthy of Brother Su treating me so well?"
"Haha, I don't mean anything else, I just want to make friends with you, you're a very interesting person. The more muffled people are, the more they have the city government and scheming, God knows if what you have in your chest is a greater ambition to swallow the sky than me!" Su Trun smiled jokingly, and when he saw Liu Xuanqing in a trance, he hurriedly greeted, "Come on, come on, drink wine, drink wine! This wine is still hot, and it won't taste good when it's cold." ”
"Brother Su...... But there is really Yaxing......" Liu Xuanqing squeezed out this sentence from between his teeth, his expression and eyes were still stunned, and Su Tren had already bowed down in person and poured Liu Xuanqing's wine glass full of scorching wine.
"What? Brother Liu refuses to appreciate his face? Do you think this wine is poisonous?" Sutron chuckled.
"Ah...... No, it's not...... The president personally poured wine for Zaixia, and was flattered by Zaixia, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while......" Liu Xuanqing hurriedly covered up, and Sutron continued to laugh heroically, but this can only highlight his heroism and domineering, but the vague aura belongs to the pulse of the intertwined soul.
Liu Xuanqing had actually settled down a long time ago, if Su Tron really wanted his life, then there was no need to play such indiscriminate means as poisoning in wine, and Su Tron would not be so stupid as to kill him without seeing him a few times, if he felt that he was a threat, then there was no need to shoot the previous sugar-coated cannonball.
In the face of Sutrun's first action, since Liu Xuanqing couldn't smell the malice, he could only face it calmly. In his observation, Sutron is indeed a great character, and there is no second part of that sky-high pride in the world, and the kind of "traitorous state" that integrates heroism, decisiveness, deceit, ferocity and lofty ambition will inevitably make him do a lot, and even have the possibility of leading the army to the demon world and dominating the heavenly continent.
Liu Xuanqing calmed down, responded calmly, and toasted a glass of wine in return. Drinking hot wine and thinking inwardly, this Sutron, he has a variety of qualities that a great leader has, but he is suspicious, once he is cold and arrogant, he is a "demon king" who does not leave any humanity, but that may also be his philosophy of life, which should make people "respect" and "fear", right?
In this way, the two sat down and drank happily, on the surface, it was like a dinner party of friends, and they talked about everything, but the inner looks of the two were incompatible, most of them were spoken by the master of Sutren, Liu Xuanqing just agreed a few times, and occasionally took the initiative to enliven the atmosphere, but most of the topics were irrelevant topics.
The superficial expression can be distinguished by the naked eye, but the inner expression is triggered by the irregular tremor of the facial muscles, reflecting the best embodiment of the inner emotion, Liu Xuanqing's inner expression is very abnormal, but Sutren's eyes are not yet superb enough to be able to capture the subtle and extreme changes in the other party's face.
However, the more Liu Xuanqing racked his brains, trying to make Sutron feel that he was just a mediocre person, the more Sutron decided that he was an extraordinary person. Pretending to be calm and insipid, deliberately constricting his aura, Liu Xuanqing was smart but was mistaken by being smart, which aroused Su Trun's suspicions, because Su Tren has seen many more ruthless characters than normal people who have ever met, this normal performance of "no silver three hundred taels here" seems to have a feeling of telling him that he "has a ghost in his heart" in Sutren's eyes.
At this time, in front of the gate of the imperial city, Guo Xing and Lu Yusen were stopped by a group of soldiers holding halberds. Lu Yusen shouted urgently: "Hey, you little pawns, do you know who we are?"
"The last general has met with the military master and the woosen-sama. The young general led by him hurriedly saluted the two.
"Since you know, how dare you not let you go?"
"Hui Yusen-sama...... Please forgive me for not being able to let go, so please go back, two adults. The young general swallowed his saliva and said helplessly, "The last general has been strictly ordered by the president not to disturb during the banquet." ”
"What should not be disturbed? The eyebrows are burned, and the president still has the leisure to drink?" Lu Yusen was anxious and angry, and grabbed the young general's clothes, "What are you kidding! We have important matters related to the survival of mankind to report to the president!"
"Third brother, stop!" Guo Xing calmly grabbed Lu Yusen's shoulder and shook his head at him, "Let's wait first, if Su Trun really misunderstands that the two of us rebelled, it will be more than worth the loss." ”
During the banquet, Su Telun drank heavily, and Liu Xuanqing did not dare to refuse. When the wine was half-drunk, Sutron put on a "cocktail feast" and invited Sutlun to taste them one by one, and Liu Xuanqing, who was originally from the world, had also participated in several cocktail parties, so how could he not recognize the taste of the familiar color? Although the taste of wine is different from that of the world, it is still the best in the cocktail.
"Brother Su, what's so weird about all this wine?" Liu Xuanqing asked decisively, he didn't want to show off his profound knowledge that didn't matter in the human world in front of this "traitorous male".
"Hehe, Brother Liu doesn't know, these wines are called 'cocktails', which are a new variety of high-quality wines mixed with ingredients or other substances. Sutron smiled, "This was done by Vice President Lucy of Ice and Snow, and of course, it was the magical 'Mr. Xia' who taught such a technique." ”
"Mr. Xia......" drank a spicy and refreshing cocktail like 'martini', Liu Xuanqing secretly wrote down these three words in his heart. Su Tren did not disclose the name of "Xia Yanfeng", but if Liu Xuanqing guessed correctly, that person must be from the human world!
"Life is like wine, and wine is also good and bad. Suddenly, Sutlon changed the topic meaningfully, and when his aura suddenly rose, his pride seemed to break through the sky, "Brother Liu! These cocktails with mixed flavors are like heroes and heroes in the world, a hundred flowers are blooming, competing for beauty! Tell me, when the country is in the continent today, who deserves to be called a 'hero'?"
"Ah......" Liu Xuanqing was stunned, Sutren's focused eyes seemed to be staring at him, and his heart was about to jump out, "I...... I, Liu Xuanqing, am just an ordinary man, how can I talk about the general trend of the world?"
"Brother Liu doesn't have to be too humble, it's okay to be blunt. Sutron smiled, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he stared straight at him.
Liu Xuanqing had naturally deeply studied the situation in the Heavenly Continent, but Su Telun was obviously testing him, and if he didn't say it, would Su Telun suspect that he was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger? No, if he didn't follow this "traitorous male," he would probably really be suspected of having different aspirations.
"Okay. Liu is not talented, it is said that the Yuan brothers divided one side, swallowed thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, had millions of soldiers, and occupied a wide area, so they should be regarded as heroes, right?"
"Hahahaha......" Su Trun almost didn't laugh when he heard this, "The dry bones in the grave, a pair of living treasure brothers, I have already cleaned them up! These two brothers are incompatible with each other, they are fighting in the same room, what else do they want to conquer the world? Don't say that they are heroes, they can't even hug the thighs of heroes!"
After hearing this, Liu Xuanqing nodded knowingly, and pretended to ponder for a long time before he said: "The orc Zhang Yida, the elf Damian, the undead Dong Yan, the demon Nie Jinlou, and the demon Podolian, who are also the guild presidents with Brother Su, can they be considered heroes?"
Listening to Liu Xuanqing's questioning tone, it was like asking Sutron for advice. Sutron waved his hand and sneered: "Why mention the name of the rats? The orcs are brave and unscrupulous, the elves are pretentious, the demons and ghosts are not right, and the demons are mercenary, and the president will defeat them sooner or later." Besides, which of those guilds has the same achievements as I Sutron today?"
