In front of the tavern, Ye Changlou used the strength of wine to boast about how big and rich his hometown was. Sikong Yulong echoed beside him, and this originally abrupt banquet actually had the lively taste of the market.

Ye Changlou has a sentence without a sentence, and the preface does not match the afterword. At one point, he said that he had tamed a big hairy insect in his hometown, and he liked to make trouble with him near the sea; At one time, he said that he was able to carry the crown when he was ten years old, and the old people in the clan regarded themselves as prodigies, and they had already fought all over the Southern Wilderness over the years. The former mouth is still talking about his interesting observations in various places; After that, he said that he landed in front of the sword shop, and a young calf was lost, not to mention, and he also put in 10,000 taels of silver tickets. I just ran into a Sikong Yulong who was on the top, and while persuading him to drink, he pretended to be surprised for a while, sighed for a while, and said that Brother Ye was really a young hero, and at the same time echoed that the man was really shameless, and it should have been Brother Ye's thing, but it was picked up by that man.

said that Ye Changlou was a hot heart, and he called him a bosom friend.

Suddenly remembered something, Ye Changlou, who came back to his senses after realizing it, slapped his thigh and scolded: "He-mother-, forgot to find that man to ask for 10,000 taels of silver tickets." ”

Sikong Yulong followed and scolded the man again. While scolding the sloppy man for not knowing etiquette, righteousness and shame, he persuaded Ye Changlou to look away and relax.

The other two people at the table couldn't help but laugh when they looked at the picture of a close friend in front of them. Compared with the liveliness of Sikong Yulong and Ye Changlou, these two have a bit of a "gentleman's friendship is as light as water".

Su Tiantian smiled and touched the bowl with the young Li Qinsheng, and said softly: "You are very similar to a friend of mine." ”

Li Qinsheng raised his head and looked at Su Tiantian suspiciously.

Su Tiantian said with a smile: "His name is Li Qingzhou, and he used to be the same as you, very shy, and recognized." But you're also different. ”

Su Tiantian looked at the young man and couldn't hide his smile, "He's a little bald head." ”

Li Qinsheng smiled and narrowed his eyes, and said seriously: "It's a coincidence, even the surname is the same." ”

Su Tiantian took a sip of wine, thinking of the little monk who was as shy and clean as the young man in front of him, and didn't know where the young monk who had gone to the north alone had gone.

On the bustling long street, a young man in black slowly walked from the other end of the street.

Sikong Yulong, Su Tiantian, and Ye Changlou noticed the abnormality one after another.

The black-clothed young man walked step by step, and a sense of oppression became heavier and heavier, and even Li Qinsheng felt that something was wrong.

Sikong Yulong raised his hand and signaled that everyone did not need to be nervous.

The black-clothed young man walked straight to the wine table, stared at Sikong Yulong, and said, "According to the agreement, I'm here." What did you say in Xiangyang before, did you count? ”

Sikong Yulong didn't answer directly, turned his head and asked Xiao Er to add a chair and a pair of chopsticks.

"Sit down and drink first."

The black-clothed young man continued to stare at Sikong Yulong, and did not sit down or leave. Sikong Yulong poured the empty bowl full of wine by himself, and said slowly: "If you can't reach it quickly, you are in a hurry, and the hundred-year predicament will be broken once, is it a simple matter?" You are in a hurry to do this moment, besides, this is a rare good wine, and there will be no such shop in this village after that. ”

The young man in black hesitated for a moment, but finally pulled out his chair and sat down.

Sikong Yulong looked at Ye Changlou and Li Qinsheng, who were confused, and explained: "Let me introduce, this one, the prince of the Northern Clan, the eldest prince, Zhao Longcheng, the two of us just finished a fight not long ago. ”

Facing the two people with shocked faces, Sikong Yulong introduced Zhao Longcheng with a smile: "These two, one from the Southern Wilderness and the other from the Western Qi, both gathered at the wine table today. ”

Zhao Longcheng looked up and was a little surprised, these two people from different backgrounds naturally had very different personalities, but they both had extraordinary temperaments.

Sikong Yulong stretched out his hand and pointed at Su Tiantian again, and asked, "This shouldn't need to be introduced, I've seen it on the battlefield, and it is estimated that the information about him over there must be a stack high." ”

Zhao Longcheng retracted his gaze, frowned, and said to Sikong Yulong in a low voice: "Don't give me sloppy eyes, you should know that there is only one reason why I am willing to come to Xunyang patiently." ”

Sikong Yulong still smiled: "Then let's finish this wine patiently, and we can talk about the rest of the matter." ”

Zhao Longcheng's face was cloudy, and the atmosphere at the wine table dropped to freezing point. Su Tiantian looked at the two of them intently, he didn't believe that this Zhao Longcheng would sneak into Xunyang alone, and that powerful He Yongshan might be staring somewhere. Once Yulong and this Zhao Longcheng do not negotiate, this long street may be fragmented.

However, Sikong Yulong was unmoved, he silently raised the wine bowl and motioned to Zhao Longcheng with his eyes, "Huh? ”

The next moment, Zhao Longcheng, whose face was like frost, suddenly laughed.

"Haha, you're a Sikong Jade Dragon, let's not sell it, thinking about giving each other a dismount. We didn't know the winner on the battlefield before. ”

Zhao Longcheng picked up the wine bowl and said, "Then on this wine table, Lao Tzu still won't drink you to death?" ”

On an official road leading directly to Xunyang, two carriages and a group of people were slowly and leisurely driving the road, stopping and stopping, not in a hurry at all.

After giving an order to rest for a while, two people walked out of one of the carriages, about a teenager, a man and a woman, with a natural extravagance.

As soon as the two got out of the car, a large group of people immediately hugged them, the former slaves and the last maids, so it was not lively.

An old lady said earnestly: "Miss Young Master, let's hurry up and put on this fox fur shoulder, it's cold outside the car." Now at this time, an autumn rain and a cold, the most important thing is to beware, if you accidentally catch the wind cold, it will be troublesome. Before going out, Mrs. kept telling the old body that if the young master was in poor health, the old man would not be able to explain to the lady. ”

Under the persuasion of the old grandmother, the two had to add clothes.

Walking out of the crowd, the two looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

The girl said, "Brother, why don't we hurry up?" Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. ”

The boy said confidently: "No problem, with the speed of our cars and horses, we are completely in time, what is the hurry, let's stop and stop now, travel in the mountains and rivers, isn't it interesting?" ”

The girl said softly, "But I can't wait to see Sister Xue." ”

The boy put his hand on the girl's head and comforted: "Don't worry, cold water, it should be here in the evening, and then let Sikong Yulong invite us to live in the best pavilion and serve the best wine and food." ”

A round fat man rolled over from the other carriage, and the boy asked with a smile, "Fang Xinshi, are you sure that you can win the thin bamboo pole last time this time?" ”

The fat man sighed, "Grab it." ”

The boy laughed.

Fang Xinshi walked to the two Wuzhou Wang family Jinyu who rushed to Xunyang to participate in the chess game - Wang Yehui and Wang Hanshui, wiped the sweat on his face, and then said fiercely: "When I get to Xunyang, I must point to Sikong Yulong's nose and ask why this chess game is set in the Mid-Autumn Festival, I really pity those sisters and sisters who are waiting for the master in Lizhou." ”

Wang Yehui and Wang Hanshui felt a chill at the same time, Wang Yehui escorted his sister to the carriage, and said to the fat man who was more than two hundred pounds: "Let's go, Fang Fat." The first two chess games kicked the jade dragon all over the field, and this time we have to give him some color to see. ”

Fang Xinshi jumped to his feet and protested: "The surname is Wang, didn't you see that I just got out of the car, master?" It's tiring to walk around. ”

The boudoir of the city lord's mansion.

Su Tianxue found the long red robe that she hadn't worn for a long time.

In the Su family, Su Mantang has never had the distinction between the upper and lower nine streams, since he was a child, as long as Su Tiantian and Su Tianxue like it, they will learn whatever they want. Although Su Tiantian has always only practiced swords, Su Tianxue has learned a lot, in addition to the eternal piano, chess, calligraphy and painting and female red, sword dance, equestrian have all dabbled, and even most of the big families look down on the stage singing and kitchen fireworks, have learned a lot.

There was a knock on the door, and after getting Su Tianxue's permission, Su Mantang pushed open the door and walked in.

Su Mantang, who was still full of wine and flesh, said with a smile: "The people from Wuli and the two states will arrive soon, do you want to go and see it together?" ”

Su Tianxue handed Su Mantang a bowl of sobering tea, nodded and smiled: "It's just right, I haven't seen you for a year, and I want to see Hanshui too." ”

Su Mantang glanced at the robe that Su Tianxue found out, then looked at his daughter's desire to speak and stopped, and said: "Don't worry, it's okay with the stinky boy, he has been like this since he was a child, don't you understand, he won't do things that he is not sure of." ”

"No, it's not that I'm worried about him."

Su Mantang quipped: "What's the matter, are you still shy on Daddy's side?" ”

In front of the tavern, the drinking of two people unconsciously turned into a fight of three people, and Ye Changlou, who drank the wine, didn't care about the prince of the Northern Clan at all, and after a while, he joined the competition between the two.

After three rounds of drinking, Su Tiantian saw that the posture of these three people was not finished, so he quietly ordered someone to move two more altars of "drunkards".

After five flavors, in the end, the three of them fought evenly. No one remembers who drank too much and drank less, but they just refused to lose.

Li Qinsheng watched them from the sidelines, quietly, with a smile in his eyes, maybe he had been dreaming of such a scene for many years.

Ye Changlou took a breath of relief and said, "How to solve your worries, only Du Kang." Then he pulled the young Li Qinsheng to continue to talk about the past that he thought was wonderful and splendid.

Zhao Longcheng leaned back in his chair and hummed a minor tune slowly, but the voice was too soft, and Sikong Yulong, who was next to him, couldn't hear it clearly, but he could hear that it was the tune from the Northern Desert.

Sikong Yulong had a smile on his face, and vaguely heard a sentence "For thousands of years, rolling yellow sand, how many unjust souls are ......"

"Zhao Longcheng, Ye Changlou, Li Qinsheng, plus me and Master Su, it is enough to catch up with the southeast, northwest and northwest of Zhongzhou, so I will say something at the end."

Sikong Yulong said: "Tomorrow for the Mid-Autumn Festival, you shouldn't have any good places to spend the festival in Xunyang." There is a big banquet in Yulan Building tomorrow night, and please be sure to enjoy your face at that time. Big fish and meat, thousands of cups of wine, singing on stage, feasting on Qingqiu. ”

Sikong Yulong finally lowered his voice and said to Zhao Longcheng: "The matter between the two of us will be left to be solved at that time." ”

Qingteng Lane, the mouth of the alley.

"It's good, it's all in the game."

Lao Bai said casually, Gu Nanfeng in the inner room pricked up his ears and listened.

Kirin Tower.

A jar of wine has been drunk, Sikong Yue said: "After drinking this wine, let's continue to go our separate ways in the future, I don't care about the purpose of your trip to Xunyang, and you don't come to block my single-plank bridge." ”

The old man put his hand on his forehead and muttered a yes.

Sikong Yue stood up and gave the old man one last look before going downstairs.

Twenty years is not a short time, and the once domineering old man is full of gray hair after all.

Sikong Yue, who turned around, asked thoughtlessly.

"You're not going to die of old age yet."

The old man asked rhetorically, "What?" ”

Neither of them could see each other's expressions, and both of them laughed unconsciously.
