Chapter 43 Wine tasting comes after adulthood
Not knowing how to pretend to understand is a bad habit from a character point of view, but it is an art in conversation, and it is necessary to keep the atmosphere in a comfortable environment for both parties.
It's like someone talking about tea art, and if you say what tea is, it will make people feel very embarrassed, and now, Wenwen on behalf of the Heavenly Demon proposed an invitation to Wu Ye for a banquet, and then Wu Ye said back:
"Who is the Heavenly Demon?"
β......β
To be honest, Wenwen is quite embarrassed, although the identity of the Heavenly Demon is a secret among the low-level monsters, few youkai know that in the Tengu society, it is not the Great Tengu who is at the top of the ruling chain, but the Heavenly Demon.
But for the big monster, this is the same concept as common sense, in Wenwen's consideration, the existence of being able to fight with Cui Xiang and others, should know that the heavenly demon is, but I didn't expect to encounter an exception.
Because Wu was also wearing a mask, Wenwen, who couldn't see the other party's bewildered expression, thought a little too much.
Could it be that Lord Heavenly Demon is wrong? In fact, Aaron and Yakumo Purple have a close relationship?
The person who sent the invitation to Wu Ye was the Heavenly Demon, and the other party's consideration Wenwen also heard a thing or two, the relationship between his own leader and the monster sage is more delicate, in short, it is not very good.
In order to be able to improve his voice in the coalition army, it is natural to attract all the forces that can be co-opted, and Takeya, who appeared here, although many youkai think that he has a close relationship with Yakumo Purple due to the power of the realm, but the Heavenly Demon does not see it that way.
If the two were really old acquaintances or friends, then that scene should not have happened during the day, at least, Wu should not have a conflict with Cuixiang.
With this layer of speculation, the Heavenly Demon asked Wenwen to come to invite Wu Ye, which was a show of goodwill, but who knew that Wu Ye would talk about the topic to death in the first sentence.
Wenwen looked suspicious, Wu also had a very stomachache, and the heavens testified that he really didn't know what the heavenly demons were, in the fantasy township of the later generations, let alone any heavenly demons, even the big heavenly dog he occasionally heard from other people's mouths.
The atmosphere became awkward and abnormal for a while, but fortunately, the rescue finally came, but for Wenwen, the appearance of this person is still a matter of whether it is a rescue or not.
"Heavenly Demon, that's the head and leader of the Tengu, and his status is still above the Great Tengu, I'm really lucky, Aaron, that guy actually invited you to a banquet, this is an honor that even we don't have."
Although the words are good, there is always a prickly feeling in them, and in the face of Yakumo Zi's elusive behavior that never takes politeness seriously, Wenwen has long been surprised.
"Purple-sama." Wenwen bowed her head respectfully, she could still maintain equal politeness to Wu Ye, but in the face of the monster sage, she had to remain humble.
"PurpleβMiss." After being entangled for a while, Wu Ye still added honorifics, after all, this is not a thousand years later.
"What's that subtle pause? Well, forget it. Yakumo took his glass from Takeya's front and looked at the candle flame reflected in the waves.
After a while, she smiled faintly and said: "Speaking of which, you are also the messenger of Youzi, we should have entertained you well, since the Heavenly Demon is willing to share our worries, why not?" β
β......β
β......β
Wenwen and Wu Ye didn't speak, Wen Wen was because he couldn't interject, and Wu Ye definitely felt Yakumo Zi's unhappiness, yes, although the expression on her face now was not a little flawed, but Wu also knew that she must be in a bad mood at the moment.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, Yakumo Zi narrowed his eyes and simply drove people away: "Just go back and tell the Heavenly Demon, and let her treat Ah Long for us." β
"Yes." There was not a single superfluous word, Wenwen didn't have the idea of staying for a moment, and he didn't even drink the wine he poured.
After Wenwen left, the atmosphere became even more awkward, Yakumo Zi sat in Wenwen's position by himself, slowly tasting the wine brought by the other party, and Wu Ye was sitting in a precarious position, holding his upper body straight and not saying a word.
If you want to talk about fighting strength, Wu Ya will not be Yakumo's opponent, so when Yakumo Zi was about to pour the third glass of wine, Wu Yaya finally spoke.
"If you don't think it's appropriate, I won't be going tomorrow."
"Huh?"
The purple pupils contaminated with the aroma of wine instantly became clear, Yakumo Zi put down the wine to her mouth, she thought that her disguise was flawless, if it wasn't for the closest people, it would be impossible to find the irritability she hid under the smile, but this guy could actually see it directly, guessing, or ......
The corners of his bent eyes showed a hint of inquisitive curiosity, and Yakumo Zi suddenly felt that this so-called "messenger" was indeed a little different, and he was worthy of Yuko handing over the Louguan Sword to him.
The mask on his face was not the most obstructive, at least from that eye, Yakumo Purple couldn't see anything.
Mysterious people are always fascinating, like a box with a treasure hidden in it, and people can't help but want to open it.
Pushing the glass of wine left by Wenwen in front of him in front of Wu Ye, Yakumo Zi shook the wine in his hand and said lightly: "The Heavenly Demon invited you probably out of his own considerations, if you refuse, wouldn't it be too shameful to give him face." β
Yakumo Zi was ostensibly persuading Takeya to go to the banquet, but in fact it was a backword, there was no reason, and Takeya came to such a conclusion with his years of experience with Yakumo Murasaki.
So he thought for a while and said, "That's simple, I can release her pigeon, anyway, I still have to go back to Yuko, even if she troubles me, there is no way." β
"Release the pigeons?"
"I just agreed first and then didn't go."
"......" Yakumo Zi paused with his hand holding the wine, and when he raised his eyes to look at Wu Ye again, his eyes were already very strange.
I have to admit that this mysterious guy really has a bit of an appetite for himself, no matter what he guesses, no matter what, he can actually understand his thoughts accurately, which is incredible.
The originally bad mood suddenly became pleasant, presumably if the Heavenly Demon drank with this guy, the scene must be interesting, right?
The corners of Yakumo's purple mouth twitched, and Wu Ya's heart was full of alarm bells, which was a prelude to making trouble.
"If you release the Heavenly Demon Pigeon, it will be very troublesome for the Tengu to make a fuss, you can go to the banquet, it's not a big deal, it's a big deal to fight." Yakumo Zi said it easily, but the corners of Wu Ye's eyes jumped fiercely.
"Fight?" Wu Ye pondered his words and asked in a low voice, "Do you have a holiday?" β
"Nope." When he said this, Yakumo Zi's eyes didn't blink, obviously blindsided.
β...... Is it too late to say no? β
"That little tengu has already gone to reply, and if you regret it, you will really release her pigeon."
β......β
"Don't worry, you are the messenger of Youzi, we won't let you have an accident, when you go to the banquet tomorrow, I will let the 'bodyguards' follow you."
With a smile, he raised the wine glass in his hand and gestured to Takeya, and the corners of his satisfied Yakumo purple crescent-like eyes were a little teasing: "Don't you have a drink?" Aaron Boy. β
"Nope." Takeya shook his head, although the mask was invisible, but the low tone had a sense of defeat that made Yakumo Shibei feel happy.
"Allah, angry?" After that, Yakumo Zi didn't wait for Wu Ye to recover, and drank the wine directly.
Unexpectedly, Wu Ye said seriously: "I'm underage." β
"Poofβ"
Caught off guard, Yakumo Zi couldn't help but accidentally spray Wu Ye.
