The surrounding crowd chattered loudly, Ji Ge gave up and continued to think, anyway, for the wasteland, he was just a passerby, whether it was a grudge or a bloody secret, it had nothing to do with him.

After a while, after dispersing the gambling belongings, seeing that there was no more excitement to see on the empty platform, the people gradually left in twos and threes, and the bearded man also sighed, stroked his beard and said to them: "Let's go, that person was captured by the "old immortal", hey, there is no way to live!"

The group had just walked a short distance when a surprised voice blurted out behind them.

"Ji Ge?"

Ji Ge paused for a while, then slowly turned around, sure enough, it was the black-clothed young man he saw in the City Gate Tavern before, followed by several powerful men, he didn't expect that he was wearing a dirty felt suit, he could actually recognize it.

Ji Ge looked at him lightly and did not answer, and Shi Lu on the side was also puzzled.

"Oh...... It's okay, I recognized the wrong person...... Hehe. The young man in black was stunned, and immediately reacted, and apologized to him with a smile on his face, and a different color flashed in his eyes. Several of the big men behind him secretly showed strange looks, as if this person should not be like this in their eyes.

Ji Ge glanced at the black-clothed boy more, confirmed that he really didn't have any impression of him, and said to the bearded man, "Go." ”

The bearded man looked at a few familiar figures behind the black-clothed young man, his legs were a little weak, and when he heard Ji Ge's words, he hurriedly agreed: "Yes, yes, okay, let's go......"

When a few people walked out of the sight of the black-clothed young man, the black-clothed young man seemed to think of something, suddenly sneered, looked straight like this, and said coldly: "Let's go too, continue to drink......"

Ji Ge walked silently on the road, Shi Lu and the others didn't ask much about him, he was clouded with a faint haze in his heart, although the young man in black was very hidden, but he still saw a trace of inexplicable hostility in the other party's eyes, and he didn't know where it came from.

Ji Ge tried his best to remember every boy he had seen in the castle, and he could be sure that he had never seen this person!

In their contemplation they came to a dilapidated tavern, which seemed to be patronized by not many people, and there were only a few tables and chairs in the whole tavern, all of which were very old and shiny with greasy oil, and it was approaching dusk, and in the setting sun a chubby half-old man was sitting with his chin bagged, his huge head tilted to one side from time to time.

"Yo yo, there are still people who don't have business to do, if they don't do it, I'll leave......" The bearded man didn't walk in, he shouted loudly, squeezed his eyebrows at the fat old man, and his mouth pretended to be leaving, but in fact, he found a seat casually and sat down with a seemingly clean ass, sucking on the stool, I am afraid that someone will chase him with a machete and will not move half a step.

The fat old man was originally drowsy with his head drooping, but when he heard the familiar voice he didn't like to hear the most, he shouted again, suddenly stood up and slapped the table, pointed at the bearded man's nose and shouted angrily: "It's you again, I won't give you a bully meal if I die today, hum, I want to pay on credit, but there is no door!"

"Alas, don't, hehe, who do you see I have brought?" The bearded man heard that the fat old man would expose his shortcomings as soon as they met, his face was slightly red and he walked forward anxiously, hooked his neck and whispered in his ear.

"You, what are you doing? Hmph, it's impossible to get close to me, unless you settle the old score...... Hmm?what......" The fat old man was still shouting to himself, and when he heard the bearded man's words, he gradually quieted down, and looked at Ji Ge and the others pointed at by the bearded man, and his heart immediately became busy, these are all rich people!

The bearded man patted his fat chest, threw him a knowing look, and shook his bag, laughing brightly in the noise.

"My brother's pocket has a foundation, how could I forget my brother, hehe, I have all knotted it before!" He just took advantage of the chaos in the crowd, no one paid attention, and used the front position to cover his eyes and secretly took away a lot of gold and silver, and when he thought of the other people's reaction, he couldn't help but feel proud when he found that his share was much less.

The fat old man's eyes lit up, and he really didn't waste himself being so good to him, and he didn't care about the bearded man's self-talk, he returned a grateful look and stepped forward to greet them, Shi Lu was a little jerky and more of a fat old man persuaded to order a lot of roast goose, fat sausages and other meat food, and a few cans of wine.

The bearded man smiled at them and said truthfully: "I am indeed a little favoritism, forgive me, but the fat man's house tastes really good, and the price is the fairest in the sand." ”

Shi Lu waved his hand at him, signaling that he didn't mind these too much, how could he not eat a good meal when he came to a place where he would stay for a long time in the future.

In the bearded man's ramblings, he said some small rumors about the head of the city and the end of the city, and it was not boring to wait, and after waiting for a long time, the fat old man brought a plate of oily and tender.

A few big men can eat it when they see the block, even if the bearded man twists a piece of fat intestine and stuffs it into his mouth, he tastes it for a long time, and he looks like he is enjoying it, and suddenly finds that most of it has been wiped out and struggles to join the ranks of grabbing food.

As for Ji Ge, it was even more terrifying, in the horror of Shi Lu and the others, the fat old man became more and more happy The more he looked at it, he added eight roast geese one after another before patting his stomach, indicating that he was full.

"Haha, the little brother really has a good belly! Come on, my brother can't speak, let's go!" Shi Lu raised his wine glass and saluted him, raised his head and drank it all.

"Yes, yes, if I hadn't stopped you on the road, would we still be able to eat and drink here?" haha......" The reckless man also wiped the oil and water all over his mouth, and Lala, the Mu Ne brother who only knew how to eat with his stuffy head, stood up at the same time and poured a full wine into his stomach.

Ji Ge looked at the full glass of wine overflowing in front of him, his eyes were a little hazy, he thought of a lot, thought of the scene when he drank for the first time, and thought of ...... Dad.

Without saying a word, he raised it and poured it into his mouth, the wine of the wasteland was the strongest, the spicy sensation entered his throat, as hot as swallowing the liquid of fire, and a hot breath rose in his abdomen, surging up his head, sweating from his forehead, and his eyes were incomparably bright.

"Drink!"

"Drink, haha......"

......

Ji Ge didn't know how much wine he drank, he only knew that it was poured into his throat, the wine was the tears of time, the most inspiring, the hearty laughter and the collision of cups and plates reminded him of a lot of happy or sad pasts, and in the end, it was sweet and sour, and gradually became bitter and permeated his chest, and his eyes blurred.

He only knew that when he woke up, he collapsed on the bed, his body was still full of pungent alcohol, he only felt a splitting headache, a chapped throat, a drowsy head, and his arms propped up and looked around, the three Shi Lu brothers and the bearded man and even the fat boss were lying crookedly on the bed next to him and sleeping, and the bearded man was still pulling loudly.

Standing up a little shaky, Ji Ge gently opened the door, the soft light shone on his face, so that he couldn't help but blink his eyelids slightly, and took a deep breath, a gust of morning breeze with a slight coolness blew, sweeping away the faintness of hangover.

I don't know how long it has been like this, I don't want to do anything, let alcohol numb myself, and indulge completely, this year, he has lived a very hard life, even gasping for breath has to be careful, and one wrong step may fall into the endless abyss.

"Hoo ......"

Ji Ge let out a long breath of turbidity, this is the backyard of the tavern, not much at a glance, he went straight to the well, brought up a bucket of well water, the cold well water is sweet and refreshing, he muttered a few gulps, only to relieve the burning thirst in his throat, his hands were splashed on his face, his eyebrows and eyes were all wet, so that his last bit of sleepiness also disappeared.

He lowered his head and looked at the reflection in the well water, the young man had matured a lot, and the edges and corners were gradually revealed, immature was not there, but replaced by a kind of fortitude and forbearance, and the black pupils were deep and clear.

Ji Ge buried his face in the water, held it for a long, long time, he pulled it out suddenly, and the water in the bucket splashed wildly, reflecting a rainbow of colors in the sun.

"Little brother, you're awake, hehe, it's really a young man, I'm going to make you something to eat......"

The fat old man walked out of the room slowly, stretched his waist, and when he saw Ji Ge, he was stunned for a while and then greeted with a smile.
