Chapter 25: On the Wine Table
The small village was already hospitable, and after quelling the unwarranted disaster of the horse thief, hospitality was inevitable!
In a relatively spacious wooden house, Shi Jingtian and the three Sword Pavilion Tianci and the old village chief were accompanied, and several people sat around the table. The meal was not sumptuous, it was also freshly slaughtered and stewed chicken, two fresh fish and a few home-cooked stir-fries, which was probably the biggest limit in this small village that was not wealthy.
The meal was served in the same way, and Siguang couldn't wait for it, but he was embarrassed to move the chopsticks first, and even Zi Fan couldn't stop sticking out his little tongue, and the aroma of the farmer's meal was really unbearable.
Shi Jingtian and this Sword Pavilion Tianci have been staring at each other there, originally the people of the Sword Pavilion caught Li Qin'er, and they didn't have a good impression of Shi Jingtian, just now this person actually wanted to do something with Big Brother Li, looking at him, his heart was angry, but it was not good to vent.
Tianci's indifferent eyes holding his arms did not give in, as if to say, boy! What can you do!?
A villager picked up the wine jar that had just been opened, and poured it full of wine one by one, the color was white and a little cloudy, but the wine smelled pungent, and the smell was spicy and full of stamina.
The old village chief's hair was gray and his face was wrinkled, and he must have been sophisticated for a long time, and he could see at a glance that several people were still discordant about what had just happened, so he picked up the wine bowl and stood up tremblingly.
"The old man is over eighty years old, and he has lived here for a long time, and the passers-by who come and go here to stay and rest don't know how many people there are! But today, the small village is ushered in by several nobles, the nobles that the old man has seen in his life!"
Li Siguang and a few people quickly stood up, walked to the front and helped the old man sit down, "Village Chief, you have won the award!"
The old man sat down obediently, but the wine bowl was still not placed, "There is nothing to entertain in the small village, but a few things have been prepared, and I hope you don't mind." If you say thank you, I don't know where to start, it's all in this bowl of wine!"
After speaking, he raised his head and took a few bites.
"You're polite!" Siguang was a drunkard, picked up a big bowl and drank it all in a few sips. Spicy and mellow, I can't help but praise, "Good wine!"
Shi Jingtian can't talk about whether he likes wine or not, whether it tastes good or not, it is poured, and he drinks it in a few sips. And Tianci looked like he shouldn't have drunk much in his life, frowning and trying to find some excuse to refuse, when he saw Shi Jingtian, he drank all the way to the sky, and he drank it all when he closed his eyes, "cough, cough." The spicy smell choked him and he couldn't stop coughing.
"The people of the Sword Pavilion can't even drink wine, don't they rarely come out to explore the rivers and lakes?" Shi Jingtian's face turned red when he saw Tianci's cough, and he couldn't help but sneer.
"Hmph! cough, cough, our Sword Pavilion people devote themselves to cultivation and work hard to become the pinnacle of martial arts, of course, they rarely go down the mountain, let alone drink alcohol!"
"Alas, what's the point of being alive!" Shi Jingtian picked up the tavern, poured a bowl and drank it all by himself.
"You." Tianci was a little angry, but he didn't know how to attack, could he not pick up the wine jar and fight with him?
"Okay! Okay! These are not only our nobles, but also good people who are kind and chivalrous. Some are willing to give up a lot of money to protect the village, and some are good people when they see injustice, and they are all good people, with the same purpose and different practices, all for the sake of the small village to have the fate to sit at the same table and drink a few glasses together, which is also called a hero and cherishes the hero!
The villagers who were standing on the side hurriedly filled a few more people. "I haven't drunk for a long time, but I have to have a few bowls with a few people today, and I am fortunate to sit with a few people without getting drunk and not returning!"
Li Siguang and Shi picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp, and put the wine bowl on the table, looking at Tianci with provocative eyes.
The big bowl of wine in front of him was coupled with the spicy smell that gave Tianci a headache, and his stomach, who had never drunk wine at all, was already like a boiling pot, but when he saw the stone shocking their eyes, he resigned and had no face, closed his eyes and held his nose and drank a few sips.
"Okay, let's eat as you like! It's all commonplace, and you don't need to be polite!" the old man blushed slightly and motioned for everyone to pick up their chopsticks. The villager next to him walked up to him and whispered, "Village Chief, you are old, drink less bars!"
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm measured! Even if I don't drink, I'll eat well with a few people!" the old village chief smiled and shook his head.
The liquor in Tianci's stomach was already uncomfortable, and he was just about to pick up the chopsticks to eat something and press it, but he didn't expect Siguang to stand up and walk to him, and poured himself a full bowl without saying anything, and then picked up the wine bowl and said, "Sitting at the same table, it is indeed fate, everyone is Kan Kuairen, and after drinking this bowl, all the small friction and misunderstandings will pass, come!
After Siguang finished speaking, the wine in the bowl was already in his stomach, and the bowl was tilted down to show that there was no drop, standing in front of Tianci and waiting for him to perform.
Tianci has a head and two big, and it is really not good to drink by himself, but this person seems to be full of sincerity, and he takes the initiative to pour wine for himself, and there is no friction among several people, and he has to admit that these herdsmen are also good people. I couldn't refuse, so I had to drink it with bated breath.
Seeing that Tianci drank it, Li Siguang turned around and walked to his seat with satisfaction, and blinked vigorously at the stone. Zi Fan, who was sitting next to Shi Jingtian, couldn't help but chuckle, looked at Shi Jingtian, who didn't know what he meant, and couldn't help but gesture to the wine bowl in front of him.
Shi Jingtian suddenly understood, and said in his heart, you, the person of the Sword Pavilion, look unpleasant, and it will take some effort to fight, if you want to drink, leave half of your stomach for you to drink and vomit three times. Or the big brother has a way!
The chopsticks he picked up were just about to be stretched out, Tianci had to take them back, Shi Jingtian walked to himself with a wine glass and a wine can, Tianci was stunned, this is not another bar!
He was really right, Shi Jingtian walked up to him, took the heaven-given wine bowl and filled it, seeing that the goatee should be a few years older than himself, "This big brother! Don't say anything else, brother has something to do with you!"
After speaking, he poured three bowls in a row. When Li Siguang saw Shi Jingtian drinking three bowls in a row, he couldn't hold back his laughter, so he had to pick up the chicken leg and stuff it into his mouth desperately, and Zi Fan couldn't help but chuckle and tremble.
"This, this." If you still drink it, if you want to drink three bowls in a row, you have to get under the table. Ma Shi had already drunk three bowls, and was about to say something to excuse himself, but he was interrupted before he could say anything.
"This eldest brother is just like the village chief said, he is indeed chivalrous and courageous, although he disagrees with the approach, but he definitely admires it in his heart. Drinking three bowls in a row is the highest respect that our herdsmen have for those who admire!" Shi Jingtian looked at Tianci and hesitated to excuse himself, and hurriedly said, "A person who comes out of the top of martial arts like Sword Pavilion won't even have this measure!"
Shi Jingtian didn't know if the herdsman's respect was to drink three bowls in a row, so he just found a reason to talk nonsense, and the heavenly gift was even more unclear, anyway, he felt that this sincerity was indeed enough, and he also affirmed that he still had any anger in his chivalrous heart, especially the last sentence would not be measured, so he was speechless!
But this wine, alas! I just hope that after drinking it, I don't miss a big thing, and the goatee on my chin shook for a long time, and finally burst out, "Okay!
Shi Jingtian poured three bowls, and Tianci drank three bowls hard. Shi Jingtian turned his head to look at Li Siguang with satisfaction, only to see that he secretly stretched out his thumb to himself.
"Sure enough, they are all broad-minded heroes!" The old village chief saw that several nobles were toasting each other, and there was no contradiction at all, and the wrinkles on his smiling face stretched a lot, "Old decay is old age, and you can't drink too much, otherwise you will definitely not get drunk and return home." This wine is the village's home-brewed rice wine, and it is also considered to be sweet, so everyone must drink it well!
"Thank you village chief! Then we won't be polite!" Shi Jingtian and Li Siguang had already begun to eat a lot, and even Zi Fan was full of praise.
"Why don't you drink some, girl?" the village chief saw that Zifan's wine bowl was still full!
"But, I never drink! Thank you!" Zi Fan said embarrassedly.
"I heard that this herdsman is a good drinker for both men and women, is it because this wine is a little rough?"
"Good wine! It's definitely good wine, how can it be rough!" Li Siguang had already poured himself a bowl of wine, praised it, and said to Zifan, "Drink a bowl, it's very good, just drink a bowl and it's okay!"
Zi Fan's face was embarrassed and he looked at Shi Jingtian again, Shi Jingtian thought about it, he didn't know how to drink, it would be okay to drink a dozen big bowls, and it should be okay for a girl to drink a bowl, "The old village chief is kind, then drink a bowl!"
Smelling the spicy smell of wine, seeing the two of them as if drinking white water, Zi Fan secretly thought, he had never drunk wine since he was a child, and he didn't know what it tasted like, so he drank a bowl and tasted it, held his nose, and prepared to drink it all like a stone.
The spicy feeling went straight to the heart, and a wave of heat suddenly spread from the stomach to the outside. As soon as half a bowl was down, Zi Fan's face was already red, and his big eyes suddenly became blurred, which was charming and exciting.
"I haven't drunk like this for a long time!Come, brother, let's have a drink, stay tonight and leave tomorrow, rest assured that you won't delay the trip!"
"Come on, big brother, let's drink!" The fatigue of a few days should also be relieved, and Shi Jingtian also raised his wine glass.
The chopsticks have never been able to catch a mouthful of things to suppress the stomach of the river and the sea, God-given noodles are like pig's liver, can't drink and empty stomach a few big bowls, finally can't hold on, cover their mouths and run towards the door, just listen to a dead vomiting sound!
"Haha! I guess I even vomited out bile! Let's drink!" Li Siguang laughed.
"Hahahaha!"
