1. Purple Shirt Chapter 11 Colored and Cowardly Little Brother
Nan Ruosu finally found the steps, and hurriedly sneered and said, "Old man Su, didn't you say that you don't have any wine here today?" Why did you conjure up a pot of heroes out of thin air? ”
As she spoke, Nan Ruosu sat back in her original position a little cramped, but she didn't dare to look up at the girl who was sitting opposite, also anxious.
The same is true of the girl, who keeps fiddling with the corners of her clothes with her head down, and does not even have the courage to raise her head, and the blush on both cheeks has already spread to the roots of her ears.
She had never had such intimate contact with any man as she had done tonight, not even her and Nan Ruosu, neither of them had touched each other's bodies.
But as before, it was the first time that they had met so closely, and she didn't know what was going on tonight, as if all of a sudden, her body didn't belong to her.
Old man Su sat at the same table with the two of them by himself, personally poured a glass of wine for each of them, couldn't help but look at the girl who didn't dare to raise her head, and then looked at Nan Ruosu who was embarrassed all over her face, smiled knowingly, and said, "Where is so much nonsense?" Drink if you want, and get out of here if you don't! ”
"If you don't drink for nothing, you don't drink for fools!"
Nan Ruosu quickly glanced at the girl opposite, and while holding up the wine glass, she didn't forget to taunt the old man: "The name is a little louder, although it is inevitably cheesy?" I just don't know what it tastes like! ”
"Don't worry, it's no worse than the apricot blossom brew that some people have in mind."
Old man Su didn't even look at Nan Ruosu, pushed another glass of wine in front of the girl, and said with a smile: "I don't know if the dishes I cook will be in line with the girl's taste, if not, the girl will just order it." ”
I don't know if it's Nan Ruosu's illusion, he always feels that Old Man Su's eyes are a little fiery when he looks at the girl.
This couldn't help but surprise him, and he said secretly: "This old guy shouldn't have any evil thoughts about other girls, right?" ”
But after thinking about it, he felt that it seemed a little unrealistic, although the girl said that she was unparalleled, but she was just a little girl after all, enough to be the daughter of Old Man Su.
If Old Man Su wasn't the kind of guy who was crazy, he shouldn't have hit her with his thoughts.
Moreover, although Old Man Su's eyes were hot, Nan Ruosu did not see any blasphemy in his eyes.
This made Nan Ruosu feel embarrassed suddenly, but it did not affect the wariness of Old Man Su in his heart at all.
If Old Man Su was really the kind of person who was disrespectful to the elderly, Nan Ruosu didn't mind letting him lose his foothold in White Dragon City.
The girl still lowered her head, and thanked her again and again: "The old gentleman is polite, I can get a gift from the gentleman, and the little woman is grateful, how can she pick the fat and the thin?" ”
After that, he directly buried his head and devoured it.
It seems that she is indeed starving, otherwise, as a girl, in front of outsiders, how can she not care about her food appearance at all?
The two dishes that Old Man Su brought out, one was stir-fried beans and the other was taro vermicelli melon, but they were all home-cooked dishes that were commonplace in Bailong City, and they were also two vegetarian dishes, and they were not fishy at all.
But the girl eats with relish, and if it were in normal times, with her identity, she might not even look at this popular dish.
But tonight, because she was so hungry, she didn't even have time to taste Old Man Su's cooking, so she had already wiped out the two dishes.
Soon there were only two clean plates left on the table.
The girl burped contentedly, revealing two shallow dimples, and smiled at Old Man Su: "Thank you, old man, the little girl has never eaten such delicious food when she is so big." ”
It is true that Old Man Su's two dishes are home-cooked dishes, but until the girl eats them all, she still feels that there is still a lingering fragrance in her mouth.
This fragrance is not the mellow aroma of the usual delicacies, but a completely different fragrance, like the freshness of nectar after rain, which makes her have an endless aftertaste.
The best taste in the world is pure joy, and it is probably nothing more than that.
"The girl is serious, the old man cooks just home-cooked dishes, and the girl thinks it is delicious, probably just because the girl is too hungry."
"The so-called empty stomach is fragrant, and the evening love is long!"
Old man Su smiled faintly, and sighed as if he had a finger: "In today's world, it is rare to see a future life like a girl who is so knowledgeable, and if her heart is not quiet, she will be greedy and mislead people!" ”
How could Nan Ruosu not know that Old Man Su was clearly insinuating, he must have figured out a little bit of his own mind before, and now he deliberately used the topic to play.
Seeing that Old Man Su was worried about the matter of Xinghua Brewing, Nan Ruosu wanted to refute, but after a glass of wine, he couldn't help but smack his tongue and said, "It's really good wine!" ”
He instinctively took the initiative to focus on the wine jug in front of Old Man Su, and refused to move away.
"Hero's Tomb!"
Savoring the name given by Old Man Su to this pot of wine, I felt the sweet, sweet, astringent, and slightly pungent feelings in my throat.
For the first time, Minami Wakasu became interested in sake other than apricot blossom brewing.
Different from the glycol stuffed with apricot blossoms, Old Man Su's hero's mound is more like a journey of life, with all the tastes.
Even if Nan Ruosu is not a real wine expert, he has to admit that this pot of wine is really memorable.
Hero's Mound, as it deserves this name, also covers the flavors of the world, or it itself is the flavors of the world.
Especially for Nan Ruosu, a glass of wine seems to have re-walked all his journeys over the years, which is something he never thought of.
"What? The second son doesn't think it's hard to get into his throat? ”
Old man Su glanced at Nan Ruosu at this time, and said with a lack of interest: "The old man still thinks that the second son will complain a lot!" ”
"How dare you! How dare you! ”
Nan Ruosu finally put away his careless look, and said with a look of shame: "The juniors are used to being open-mouthed, so the seniors laugh!" ”
"Dare to ask my predecessors, where is this wine produced and who makes it?"
At this time, he already had infinite reverence for the brewer of the hero's mound in the hands of Old Man Su, and he was able to integrate all the flavors of the world into the wine and brew it, and he was by no means an idle person.
I'm afraid that such a character should be the wine fairy who only exists in the legend!
Even Nan Ruosu doubted in his heart that it was unknown whether the name of the Hero Tomb was taken by Old Man Su himself.
Based on his understanding of the old man over the years, Old Man Su didn't seem to be such an elegant person.
"Don't say it, don't say it!"
Old man Su smiled, shook his head and said: "This kind of good wine, it starts and falls because of fate, if the second son has a fate with it, he will see you again in the future." ”
Seeing that Old Man Su had a bit of the demeanor of a master outside the world, Nan Ruosu couldn't help but be stunned and said, "It's the younger generation who is reckless!" ”
"Come, drink!"
Old man Su poured another cup for Nan Ruosu, and said: "The second son has a fate today, and cherishes today's cause and effect, where will he go in the future, he has his own home, why worry?" ”
Seeing that the two of them looked mysterious, the girl also picked up her wine glass.
Although she was not a drinker, she wanted to know what was so subtle about the wine that made Minami Ruosu, her peers impressed, praise her so much.
Nan Ruosu's eyes flickered, and he didn't answer, his heart was like a mirror, what Old Man Su was referring to was not just the wine in front of him, but contained another deep thing.
He even had an intuition that what Old Man Su said should be related to what he was planning.
It's just that he can't understand why Old Man Su knows something about what he is planning.
"Could it be that he can really see the sky with his hands and eyes? Or maybe you're thinking too much? ”
Nan Ruosu took a deep look at him, thinking that after he went back, he would have to take the time to interrogate Old Man Su at his father's place.
This person made him a little unpredictable, and his body was like a fog.
The three of them touched each other and drank without words.
After a glass of wine, the girl's face did not recede but increased, although she knew little about wine, but she could still feel the evocative taste of the tip of the tongue and throat.
She couldn't help licking her lips, just at this time Nan Ruosu's eyes sneaked over, seeing her extremely charming action, Nan Ruosu suddenly felt dry mouth, and swallowed saliva silently.
The light of the eyes was once again fixed on the girl's thin lips that were as small and ruddy as cherries, and they couldn't be removed for a long time.
The girl, who was originally immersed in the aftertaste of alcohol, soon felt his hot gaze, and her heart became even more shy.
She felt that her heart, which had not yet been calm, was now like a cheerful fawn, as if tireless, rampaging through her narrow chest.
Not controlled at all.
If someone dared to be so presumptuous and offend herself with his naked eyes, I am afraid that she would have already picked up the short sword in her hand and went desperately to find him.
But Nan Ruosu's gaze not only made her feel a little unhappy, but she was a little secretly happy in her heart.
It's just that she didn't have the courage to raise her head and look at Nan Ruosu.
Old man Su put down the wine glass in his hand, looked at Nan Ruosu who had nothing else in his eyes, and then looked at the girl with Yun Jiaoyu's head hanging timidly, reached out and rubbed his temples, and sighed helplessly.
Shaking his head, he took the initiative to serve as the corner of pouring wine, and once again filled the two young people with endless thoughts.
The girl held the wine glass in her hand and took small sips.
I don't know if it's because of shyness or alcohol, she no longer has the previous gobbling posture, but has a beautiful air of Zhong Lingyu, which I see pity.
And Nan Ruosu, if it weren't for Old Man Su gently stabbing his arm, he wouldn't have reacted at all, and he was still intoxicated by the ultimate vision.
Nan Ruosu, who suddenly came back to his senses, directly picked up the wine glass and drank it all, only in this way could he block some of the embarrassment for him.
At this time, he can't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, if he can.
Thinking that he Nan Ruosu has been born for more than ten years, it is common to go in and out of the brothel of the Qinglou, and he has never weakened his momentum in front of any woman.
However, when facing the girl, he felt as if he was a different person, a stranger who was not even familiar to him.
The extreme greed in the visual, seems to linger on her beauty, and the extreme impact on the body seems to be tired of looking at her expression.
The atmosphere in the wine house suddenly became dull, the night was hazy, the lights and candles were shining in the distance, and no one said much in the three-person wine house.
Only the sound of Old Man Su carrying a pot and pouring wine into the cup is like a clear spring ding dong, intermittent symphony.
Among them, Nan Ruosu, Old Man Su and the young girl were mixed, and the slight breathing sound of the three of them was faintly in the ears.
Other than that, everything is silent.
This is true of the streets of the huge White Dragon City, as well as the narrow wooden door tavern.
It seems that all of this is interpreting the grief of the day.
Simple winehouse, full of harmony.
Old man Su has been busy pouring wine for Nan Ruosu and the others, and Nan Ruosu and the two have been busy drinking by themselves.
went back and forth like this, and I don't know how many times later, just when Old Man Su felt that in his hand, the pot of old wine that had been treasured by himself for many years was about to bottom, and Nan Ruosu and Su had already drunk seventy-seven, eighty-eight.
Nan Ruosu was a little better, at least so far, his mind was still clear.
However, the girl, who was already not strong enough to drink, was already in a mess in her mind.
None of them knew how much they had drunk, because the minds of the two of them were not on this at all.
Only Old Man Su knew that most of the wine in the jug in his hand had entered Nan Ruosu's throat.
Old man Su lifted the wine jug in his hand and sighed meaningfully, but he didn't blame Nan Ruosu.
Although the pot had been treasured by him for many years, he had only drunk one cup of it himself.
Although, he had squeezed Nan Ruosu in every way before, and his eyes were full of disgust.
Then, he looked up in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, lost in thought, and didn't know what he was thinking.
With the strength of the wine, the girl's courage also increased, and she looked up at the young man sitting opposite, with a rare hint of confusion in her eyes.
The young man is handsome, carved and painted, and occasionally there is a trace of gloom in his eyes that even she can't understand.
He sat there, very close, but it felt like the girl was out of reach.
Although he always shows a kind of unruly prodigality, intentionally or unintentionally, his eyes are always clear, like a stream that can see the bottom at a glance.
For some reason, the girl always felt that the appearance of him was not the real him.
After drinking an unknown number of glasses, Nan Ruosu's heart finally calmed down, he didn't squint, and just happened to meet the blurry gaze projected by the girl.
I don't know if it's because of alcohol, Nan Ruosu only thinks that glance is charming and breathtaking.
The heart that he had finally calmed down instantly rippled again.
Somewhat unnaturally, he looked away, but found that Old Man Su was in a trance, which made Nan Ruosu suddenly curious.
He hadn't forgotten Old Man Su's attitude towards the girl before, but judging from the current situation, it was probably wishful thinking on his part.
Nan Ruosu had noticed that when Old Man Su was pouring wine before, he didn't have any excessive behavior towards the girl, or a different kind of look.
After Nan Ruosu looked away, the girl was still staring at his face, although her face was flushed, but this time, she didn't dodge like before.
It was Nan Ruosu herself, because she kept tilting her head, and she felt a little stiff in her neck after a while.
Just when Nan Ruosu was uncomfortable staring at her and was about to get up to say goodbye, the girl suddenly spoke.
"You said before that you were very familiar with White Dragon City, can this girl ask you about someone?"
Her eyes were still staring at Nan Ruosu, as if she wanted to see him through from the outside in.
It's just that when she speaks, her tongue will involuntarily knot, making her voice a little slurred.
Nan Ruosu was stunned, moved her somewhat stiff neck, raised her eyebrows and asked, "People from White Dragon City?" ”
"Naturally!"
The girl leaned back on her snow-white jade neck, and said with a vague voice: "Otherwise, what do you think this girl has come to White Dragon City thousands of miles away?" ”
Nan Ruosu suddenly felt a twitch in her heart and blurted out: "Man? ”
Then he moved his gaze to the girl's white jade-like delicate cheeks.
The four looked at each other, and for some reason, Nan Ruosu suddenly felt a little nervous in his heart.
Seeing his reaction, the girl was obviously stunned and a little confused, but she still met his gaze and said truthfully: "A man is not a man, but he is a great young man!" ”
"Who?"
Nan Ruosu looked at her for a long time before she forced a word out of her mouth.
"General Anbei, Nan Ruoxun!"
The girl didn't notice the change in Nan Ruosu, and when she mentioned the three words Nan Ruoxun, her eyes were full of admiration.
"Is that him?"
Nan Ruosu was a little stunned.
"It's him!"
The girl nodded emphatically and said, "This girl heard the rumors that he was martyred, but this girl didn't believe it, so she came to White Dragon City day and night to find out. ”
"I don't know if it's that damn guy who cursed him like this, if this girl knew, she would have to peel off his skin."
Xu is because she has drunk a lot of wine, and when the girl speaks, she always gives people a vague feeling, but fortunately, Nan Ruosu can still understand.
"Who are you? What is he doing? ”
Nan Ruosu repeatedly confirmed that the girl in front of her did not know her.
"This girl is not him, but he is the hero in this girl's heart!"
The girl glared at Nan Ruosu, as if she was blaming him for talking too much nonsense.
"He's your hero?"
Nan Ruosu shook her head, feeling a little funny, "You won't tell me that you don't know him at all, do you?" ”
The girl's face showed a hint of yearning, and she said softly: "I often hear rumors about it, but I have never met!" ”
Nan Ruosu took a deep look at her, hesitated for a while, and then said, "He's dead!" ”
"Dead? How can it be? ”
The look on the girl's face instantly became confused, and she muttered in disbelief: "This can't be, it's impossible!" ”
There was no noise, no noise, she just sat still, lowered her head, and two tears dripped silently down her cheeks.
Nan Ruosu looked at her quietly, with mixed feelings in her heart.
Suddenly, she looked up and said to Nan Ruosu with an excited face, "You must be lying to me, right?" ”
Nan Ruosu shook his head seriously and sighed: "I have no reason to lie to you, this matter is true, there is no one in White Dragon City who does not know." ”
Hearing this, the girl sat on the wooden bench with a look of lost soul and six gods without an owner, and Nan Ruosu couldn't bear to see it.
Indeed, what reason does Nan Ruosu have to lie to herself? Why did he lie to himself?
At this time, she suddenly realized, no wonder when she first entered White Dragon City, at a glance, the streets were full of plain white lanterns.
At that time, although she was confused, she naively thought that this was some custom in White Dragon City, after all, it coincided with the Qingming Festival, so she could barely say it.
Now she understands that this is the person in White Dragon City at all, thinking about that Anbei general.
For a long time of incense, the girl did not speak, did not cry or make trouble, and sat alone.
Nan Ruosu looked at her lost soul, and almost couldn't help but speak several times.
After a stick of incense, the girl finally stopped being in a daze, her eyes became a lot colder, and the whole person seemed to turn into frost in an instant, and the cold was overwhelming.
She didn't look at Nan Ruosu again, but put her cold gaze on the short sword in the corner of the table.
Nan Ruosu's gaze was also drawn to the short sword.
The short sword is crystal clear, the hilt is a golden dragon case, and the dragon's eye is embedded with seven-colored gemstones, which is extraordinary at a glance.
Nan Ruosu's expression was slightly condensed, and she couldn't help but ask, "Dare to ask the girl, who is it?" ”
Looking at her outfit, he felt that the girl should be extraordinary, at least she should be a famous family.
But there is one thing that Nan Ruosu can't figure out, after the famous door comes out to walk, is there that one who is not in front of the back? Why is she alone?
"Who do you care about this girl?"
The girl glared at Nan Ruosu with a cold face, and suddenly picked up the remaining glass of wine on the table, raised her head and drank it all.
Putting down the wine glass and just about to get up, he suddenly felt his head sink, and he directly "poofed", and fell on the wooden table in the wine house, drunk.
He muttered to himself: "Colored and gutsless, little brother!" ”
