Volume 1 The Dragon Goes Out of the North Chapter 19 The Moon Is Full Today (I)

Now you have eternal wine, and you are drunk for thousands of years.

Half of the world's fine wine is out of the south of the Yangtze River and half out of Liaochuan.

The water in the south of the Yangtze River is beautiful, and the bright moon shines on the ditch, which can produce the famous champion red and daughter red for thousands of years, the autumn dew of Hangcheng that produces the "first wine fragrance and intoxicating people", and the "Tianlu" that is the most nourishing body, and the first line of throat, three bowls of drunkenness, and thousands of bowls of "poetry hooks" that are crazy can raise a poetry and sword fairy who has been the most proud of poetry, wine, and swords in the world......

Liaobei Sichuan is cold, and the snow falls on thousands of mountains, so it produces the most chilling, heartburn and liver-burning liquor "Burning Snow", the most heroic "General's Belly", and the most "Red Mud" with the longest aftertaste......

On the other hand, the three states in the northwest seem to really can't come up with a good wine that can be put on the table. In Xunyang for 400 years, there is only one "old well" that is really produced locally, but it is bitter and astringent, not good to drink, but it is cheaper, and it is basically an inferior wine that ordinary people will buy. Xunyang's real well-to-do family has never pursued only those famous wines.

In front of a tavern, it is overcrowded, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and most of the ordinary people come to buy some wine for the festival. There was a wine table outside the tavern, and the four people were sitting on one side, Sikong Yulong, Su Tiantian, Ye Changlou, who was invited by Su Tiantian, and one person, Li Qinsheng, who only came to the City Lord's Mansion yesterday and occasionally bumped into him a few times.

Su Mantang came over early this morning, signaling that he must bring the little guests of the Frost Orange House when he went out, Sikong Yulong glanced at this clean young man who didn't understand the world at all, and didn't understand what medicine was sold in Su Mantang's gourd.

The dishes were served, and four bowls of wine were poured, Sikong Yulong said with a smile: "In fact, our Xunyang native Laojing, outsiders don't understand the way at all, this wine is actually not bad, but it has eaten the loss of water quality, and there are too many impurities, which makes the wine taste only bitter." The best old well, with ten years as the boundary, ten years to come, cut off the bottom of the altar, the rest of the liquor continues to age. Every ten years, if you want to really taste the sweetness of this wine, it will take at least fifty years. ”

Sikong Yulong stretched out a hand, his five fingers wide open.

"Fifty years can be called 'drunkard', seventy years is called 'spirit pulp', more than a hundred years, there is no earthy bitterness, only a long and mellow fragrance, called 'gluttonous immortals'."

Ye Changlou on the side was already looking forward to it, rubbing his hands and listening to Sikong Yulong bragging there, his mouth was like a river, that gluttonous addiction had already been committed, and he drank it all with the wine bowl.

"Well, good! How old is your wine? Seventy years of spiritual pulp? ”

Su Tiantian had to praise Ye Changlou's calmness, listening to Yulong say that he had only met with this guy twice, and he felt good both times, he should be the kind of person who can drink at the same table. It's really not bad at all, how can there be such a guy who is not wary at all, and drinks straight when he picks up the bowl.

Su Tiantian explained with a smile: "It's the 'drunkard' of those fifty years. ”

Ye Changlou admired it even more and praised it.

Li Qinsheng also took a sip of the wine bowl, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"It's delicious."

Sikong Yulong nodded with a smile, looked at the young man, and said with a smile: "Brother Li is from Xiqi? ”

Li Qinsheng nodded.

Sikong Yulong continued: "I heard that the scenery of Xiqi is extremely beautiful, and half of the realm is located on an extremely high plateau, where there are endless snow peaks undulating, extremely beautiful rivers and a starry sky that has not changed for thousands of years. ”

The young man's eyes suddenly brightened, and the shy young man suddenly opened the conversation.

"Yes, yes, the scenery above the Xiju Plateau is extremely beautiful. The majestic snow-capped peaks hover over the Xiju Plateau, like a god who has guarded there for generations, mysterious, solemn and full of temptation. The melting snow from the snow peaks flows through the thousand-year-old Ancient Tea Horse Road, and the blue river water is beautifully contrasted with the steaming salt wells, the silver glittering salt pans, and the flowers and trees all over the mountains. The river also flows through a group of hot springs with one hundred and eight hot springs, which is the famous 'Hundred Springs Reflecting the Moon', and finally flows into the Heavenly Lake, which is known as the 'Holy Elephant Gate of Heaven', and its clarity and holiness will accept the vast stars in the sky above the plateau, and it is rumored that it will also soothe all the wounded hearts......"

The teenager seems to talk about his hometown endlessly.

"Thousands of sheep and cattle that look like carpets, running carefree across the land will bring peace of mind and make people feel that nothing will affect our peace of mind. When night falls, the starry sky is like a loving goddess, and the stars are close at hand, lying on the back of a sheep, as if they can touch the ...... with a stretch of hand."

The other three listened quietly, all drinking silently and smiling indifferently.

"Actually, it's not bad for us to be in the Southern Wilderness."

Ye Changlou was full of wine, shaking his head and saying, as if he missed his hometown. I thought of the sea of trees over there, the vast ancient mountains, and the big fish that could be touched by the seaside one one person high......

In the City Lord's Mansion, Su Mantang smiled all over his face, and pushed Su Yun's robe out of the Frost Orange Residence.

Su Yunpao, who looked helpless, frowned, "My student is only sixteen years old, and it's really okay to go out with those two murderous teenagers?" ”

"It's okay, what's going to happen on my turf? Besides, during the big holidays, the children get together and have a lively time, isn't this the first beautiful thing in the ages? ”

"Why don't I feel right?"

Su Mantang straightened his face, "Can't you believe in big brother?" ”

Then he patted Su Yunpao on the shoulder, and pretended to be mysterious: "Take 10,000 steps back, even if there is really something, you still don't believe in your own ability?" I've heard that the West Qi Tiance, the civil and military world, the sword out of the narrow eternal, the style shines on the clouds. ”

Su Yunpao's expression stiffened, "It's all false." ”

Su Mantang laughed and slapped Su Yunpao's shoulder twice, "Let's not care about anything today, just one thing, drink wine in a big bowl and eat meat." Are we still hungry for the "old well" produced in Xunyang? This time, my brother has made a lot of money, ninety years of 'spirit pulp', is it enough to be arrogant? ”

Upstairs from the unicorn.

The white-haired old man who called himself Master Zhou ascended to the seventh floor, which is the top floor of the Qilin Building, and you can look at Xunyang by the window.

Compared with the six floors below, the collection of books here is much smaller, but it is better to have precious rare books, half of which are martial scrolls, and half of which are dynastic secrets. Qilin Tower claims to have collected all the books in the world, compared to the Purple Light Pavilion in the imperial capital, it is indeed not far behind.

There are two tables, a large case of red sandalwood placed in the center of the seventh floor, and a large case of pear leaning against the window. Master Zhou sat in front of the big case in Huali, the table was full of files, and the pen holder was full of wolves. Spreading out a secret record of a history book he selected, Master Zhou, who had read it for nearly half an hour, snapped the secret record shut, buckled the table with his fingers, and closed his eyes to recuperate.

With that child's mind, he should have already flipped through this page of history books, so he should have more or less some understanding of the historical facts that were ordered to be erased and could not appear in the official history. There was no trace of heavy snow, and everything was buried in the winter of twenty years ago, Xunyang, the imperial capital, Qingcheng Mountain, Pegasus to the wind and snow, and the white-clothed sunset mound...... The old man put his hand on his forehead and sat up straight unconsciously. He thinks he is worthy of this world, but he only owes too much to those two children.

The world is helpless, life is impermanent, not dedicated to the poor people, and does not avoid the emperor's house.

The empty pavilion sounded the footsteps of the stairs, the old man came back from his contemplation, and the man came out of the shadows and laid a jar of wine on the case.

The old man asked with interest, "Flower carving?" How many years? ”

Sikong Yue said: "Not much, ten years. ”

The old man quipped, "You know, I don't even bother to put on the table drinks that are less than thirty years old." ”

Sikong Yue put the two wine bowls on the table and said flatly: "Small place, under this condition, I like to drink, and I don't drink and pull down." ”

"Drink! Why not drink? It's not easy to take advantage of your kid. ”

The old man quietly pushed the secret record aside, and cleared a clean piece of the table. Sikong Yue saw it in his eyes and didn't say anything.

When they started drinking, the two of them didn't talk much, just like many years ago, each drank their own drink, needless to say. It's always been like this, the two can talk very little, and even fewer can talk together.

It wasn't until he drank half of the jar that the old man finally said a word.

"How are these years?"

Sikong Yue was silent for a moment, and after a long time, he said: "Good and bad, there has to be a contrast. For me, twenty years is just a flick of a finger, and every day is the same day, and it makes no sense for me to be good or bad. ”

The old man sighed heavily.

Sikong Yue hesitated for a long time, but still asked tentatively: "The group of people back then, still can't find out where they belong?" ”

The old man shook his head.

Sikong Yue couldn't help but say, "Then there is not even the slightest clue?" ”

The old man raised his head and said slowly: "Jiang Li, Ji Yueman, inside and outside the imperial capital, plus the eight directions of the Dark Pavilion are all moving, and there are no clues, as if those people suddenly appeared and disappeared suddenly." In the past twenty years, the Assassins who had tattooed the half-moon on their right shoulder have not appeared once. ”

Sikong Yue had no choice but to drink.

The old man thought for a moment and said, "If there is really anyone in this world who knows the truth, I guess, there should be only one." ”

"Gu Qianqiu?"

The old man nodded and continued: "But Gu Qianqiu is unpredictable, he told me many years ago that who is in charge of the world has nothing to do with him Gu Qianqiu, as long as this world does not go to a catastrophe, he will always choose to stand by." His layout is that even if he knows the truth, he will never reveal the slightest rumor until he thinks it is reasonable, and the game and plan he has laid out, even if the chess pieces in the game are reluctant, will definitely come to that expected ending as he expected. ”

"So, I don't think he's going to tell us the answer, and there's no point in asking him."

"But that kid has become Gu Qianqiu's disciple, I'm very satisfied, it's a good thing."

Sikong Yue glanced at the old man, "But don't think about it, I won't let him become your pawn, he will follow his own path, and no one can interfere." ”

The old man asked tentatively, "What if the path that the child wants to take is the one I paved?" ”

"It's simpler."

The old man smiled slightly, and had already guessed the answer.

Raising the wine bowl, the old man said, "Then let's go?" ”

Sikong Yue hesitated, but still raised the wine bowl, "Let's go." ”

The two bowls collided when the long sounded.
