Chapter 63 Glass Fire
Rifle Inn, Zao Wou-Ki room.
Brother Li Luodi held a roast chicken and gnawed his mouth full of oil, his mouth was slurred, and he vividly depicted the scene of fighting bullies the day before yesterday, "Brother Zhao, you don't know how bad the situation was at that time, brother, I faced more than 800 fierce and vicious house slaves, and I could be cut at any time and end up half-paralyzed." “
"But even so, my brother still has no change in his face, he is resolute and fearless, and he doesn't take these little Karami in his eyes at all."
Zhao Wou-Ki on the side looked at the white porridge with pickles in front of him, and suddenly felt tasteless, and then listened to Brother Li Luo's bragging about not making a draft, he rolled his eyes when he heard it, and said insincerely, "Brother Li is so bold, what happened later?" “
"These eight evil slaves didn't cut you, did they?"
"Slash me? Are you kidding? “
"At that time, I went to sea with one move..... Hey, what eight, that's eight hundred! “
"Oh, and then?"
"Then I went to sea with one move of Shuanglong, the black tiger dug out the heart, and the last move was to finish the sand and geese and knock them all to the ground."
"But I heard that you were put in prison by them in the end, and you were severely ravaged."
"Hey, who the hell is making rumors about me?" Hearing this, Li Luodi was furious.
"This doesn't matter, the important thing is how hot you are, fighting eight hundred house slaves alone, leading the way and majestic." Zhao Wouji took a sip of white porridge, felt that it really didn't taste good, added a mouthful of pickles, and after the taste came up in an instant, he said curiously, "Then how did you end up in their hands?" ”
"It's a long story, just when I wanted to do the right thing for heaven and punish evil and promote good, I didn't expect that there were two first-class masters by his side, which are what you call innate."
"I fought with them for 300 rounds, and finally lost with one careless move, and I lost!"
Speaking of this, Li Luodi took a bite of the chicken leg and sighed, as if helpless.
"You mean you're being captured head-on?"
"Nonsense, people in the rivers and lakes of my generation, even if they lose, they are still upright, facing forward, and they must die with iron bones." Li Luodi is righteous and awe-inspiring.
Hearing this, Zao Wou-Ki raised his eyebrows, "Then you just entered the house, and I saw that there was a stick mark on the back of your head, what's the matter?" ”
"Oh, that's what you say?"
"When I was serving you porridge just now, I accidentally knocked on the door and got a small injury."
"Oh!" Zao Wou-Ki suddenly realized, and nodded again and again, but the disdain at the corner of his mouth could be seen by anyone.
Seeing this, Li Luodi also pretended not to see it and continued to gnaw on his chicken legs.
After a while, Zao Wou-Ki put down the white porridge and asked weakly, "You can't eat your other chicken leg, give me something to eat!" ”
"Your injuries are not healed, and I can eat too?"
"Then I'll get something for you to change the chicken legs!"
Hearing this, Li Luodi instantly became interested, his eyes were full of anticipation, and he said excitedly, "Do you want to exchange some peerless secret book or sword or sword with me?" ”
"No, it's this plate of pickles in my hand."
"Don't change!" Li Luodi is clean and neat.
Hearing this, Zao Wou-Ki had no choice but to drink his white porridge and small pickles.
Brother Li Luo, who had eaten a little, saw that there was still a chicken leg and chicken wings in his hand, thought about it, and said to Zhao Wouji, "Do you believe that I fought eight hundred alone the day before yesterday?" ”
"What eight hundred?"
"Isn't it eight thousand?"
Zhao Wouji stared at the chicken legs and wings in Li Luodi's hand, salivating, and replied very sincerely.
, what about the arrogance of the people in the rivers and lakes? Li Luodi was stunned for a moment, then he was very satisfied, and handed over the chicken leg.
At this moment, the door was slammed open, and the little pudding, with pigtails, jumped and ran in, shouting in a milky voice, "Cauldron, someone is looking outside!" “
"Who's looking for me?"
"I don't know, I said I came to find chicken wings." Little Pudding stared at the chicken wings in Li Luodi's hand, salivating, and replied that the bull's head was not in the horse's mouth.
"Looking for chicken wings?"
Hearing this, Li Luodi was stunned for a moment, and then saw the little pudding staring at the chicken wings in his hand, and he was about to run to the ground, and he was a little embarrassed at the moment.
"By the way, Guo'er, do you believe that the eldest brother picked eight hundred house slaves by himself the day before yesterday?"
"What eight hundred?"
"Isn't it eighty thousand?"
Little Pudding raised her little face, innocent, and her big eyes were full of sincerity.
Hearing this, Zao Wou-Ki was gnawing on the chicken leg sweetly, and they were all stunned for a moment, and then his eyes were full of admiration, and he looked at the fruit.
Li Luodi was silent, and when he handed over the chicken leg, he said, "Do people in the rivers and lakes have arrogant bones?" “
"Can you eat the proud bones?"
Little Pudding took the chicken wings, couldn't wait to send them to Xiaozui, and asked curiously.
Yes, it's another snack.
Li Luodi said goodbye to the two foodies, and when he came to the lobby, he saw Chen Ergou waiting in the lobby early.
Seeing this, Brother Li hurriedly greeted him, respectful and grateful, "The day before yesterday, thank you Lord Chen for your help, otherwise your life will not escape." Such a great grace, Xiaosheng is toothless and unforgettable. “
"Lord Chen was in a hurry for official business that day, and Xiaosheng didn't dare to bother."
"If you say anything today, you have to give Xiaosheng a chance to thank you."
Listening to the sincerity of what Li Luodi said, Chen Ergou's resolute face had a hint of a smile, "Xie doesn't have to, if you want to thank you, you have to thank Master Si Shou." “
"I'm just doing what I'm told!"
"Anyway, Lord Chen is also half a benefactor of Li, so he has to have a meal and drink the new signboard of the store before leaving?"
"This thing is guaranteed to be in Shangjing, and there is no restaurant in the capital?" Li Luodi said mysteriously.
Chen Ergou is also the general banner of Jingmingsi, and Li Luodi has to hug his thighs and build a good relationship.
"Oh, I've got to try that flag!"
Seeing that Li Luodi said so mysteriously, it also aroused Chen Ergou's curiosity, and he immediately nodded in agreement.
Seeing his promise, Li Luodi was overjoyed, and immediately greeted his eldest brother Li Ping, "Big brother order some good dishes, and then take out the treasure of our town store." “
"Okay, Lord Chen, please take a seat!" Li Ping nodded, and immediately ran to the counter excitedly, cautiously, lightly holding a small jar of wine, and slowly walked over.
He looked so cautious, as if he had a treasure in his arms.
Seeing Li Ping bringing a small jar of spicy wine, Chen Ergou suddenly had a dissatisfaction in his eyes, I have helped you so much, please let me drink in this small jar, who is enough to drink?
Chen Ergou really wanted to say a word, and then go to ten altars, one altar for one person.
As if he knew Chen Ergou's inner thoughts, Li Luodi smiled slightly, unhurried, and explained, "Lord Chen, don't underestimate this wine, this wine is extremely strong. “
"As we all know, the strongest liquor in the Ming Zhou is burning knives, could it be that Li Shusheng, your wine is stronger than it?"
Hearing this, Chen Ergou smiled lightly, extremely disdainful.
"That's true, it's a hundred times stronger than burning a knife." Li Luodi nodded heavily.
Seeing that it didn't seem to be a joke, Chen Ergou's eyes were full of curiosity, and he urged, "Open it and take a look." “
Seeing this, Li Luodi knew that his interest had been aroused, so he did not hesitate at the moment, knocked off the soil on the wine cover, and then untied the white cloth under the soil, and in an instant, a unique and fragrant smell of wine filled the entire lobby.
The cellar aroma is rich, mellow and elegant, and a little rich sorghum aroma wafts in, which makes people want to stop.
"Good wine!"
Just this taste, Chen Ergou's index finger that had already been seduced moved, and he couldn't wait to say, "Pour the bowl and taste it." ”
He was not allowed to say that Li Luodi had already taken a bowl, and the clear and transparent wine went down with the waves.
Chen Ergou couldn't wait to take his wine bowl and drank it all.
"Don't drink too much!" As soon as Li Luodi wanted to remind, Chen Ergou dried a big bowl, and there was not a drop left.
Qin Niangle, this wine is eighty degrees, but it is not like white water in this era, even if it is called the strongest burning knife in the Ming Dynasty, it is only about 20 degrees at most.
Chen Ergou's bowl has such a high alcohol content, I'm afraid I can't stand it.
Sure enough, when this wine was sent into his throat, Chen Ergou only felt a burst of heat in his throat. It was as if he had been burned by fire, and his eyes flowed straight out.
This wine was too strong, and Chen Ergou's face was spicy and red, this was his initial thought.
But after a while, the spiciness gradually subsides, and the mouth is immediately luscious and mellow, sweet and fragrant, and the aftertaste lasts for a long time.
"Good wine!" Chen Ergou's eyes lit up, this was definitely the best wine he had ever drunk.
He swore that if this wine was on the market, it would be absolutely crazy and empty.
"What is this wine called?"
"Glass Fire!" Brother Li Luo was very sensible, and then refilled a bowl for Chen Ergou, and said with a wry smile, "Lord Chen, this wine really has to be drunk slowly, it is too strong." ”
"Glass fire, good name." After that, Chen Ergou picked up the bowl again, but this time it was much smarter, just took a small sip, and after it was still spicy, it was mellow and sweet, and the aftertaste was endless.
Such a scene has already hooked the greedy worms in the stomach of the other store guards Jing Mingji, and they all stared at it.
Seeing this, Li Ping was very discerning and poured a bowl for everyone.
"Those on duty must wait for the shift change to drink, and the rest of the shift can drink." Seeing this, Chen Ergou thought about it and instructed the mirror Mingsi.
Jingming Si was overjoyed after changing shifts, and couldn't wait to taste the glass fire in his hand, and those who were still on duty could only sigh and wait silently for work.
"Brother Li, this wine is really good, I just don't know..."
"This wine is extremely difficult to brew, and the Xiaosheng Inn is also prepared for the envoys of Western Xia, and there are less than ten jars." Speaking of this, Li Luodi could see Chen Ergou sighing with the naked eye, and then the corner of his mouth smiled lightly, seeing that I don't pinch you, and said with a smile, "Although the wine is scarce, I have already prepared a jar for Lord Chen, and I can take it back and enjoy it with the brothers later." ”
Seeing that Li Luodi's voice changed, Chen Ergou smiled, patted the former on the shoulder affectionately, and was slightly embarrassed, "I'm afraid this is not very good!" ”
"Yes, Lord Chen and the brothers have worked tirelessly to guard our people day and night, and they deserve such hard work." Li Luodi took the opportunity to get closer.
The reason why Li Luodi brewed this glass fire was to win over Zao Wou-Ki and these powerful people.
After all, there was no man in ancient times who didn't like to drink.
It's a pity that Li Luodi has not been good at physics and chemistry since he was a child, or he is like the protagonist in other time-traveling novels, making soap, mirrors, and even gunpowder cannons and the like.
Then again, if I can make a cannon out, can I bomb the emperor and become the emperor myself? Brother Li Luodi is whimsical.
Chen Ergou, who took another sip, blushed slightly, "Brother Li, I almost forgot about business." ”
"Oh, what is Brother Chen looking for me?" Li Luodi climbed up the pole and asked affectionately.
"The saint has just issued a notice that the scholars who have been selected in high school this year will arrive at Lulin Park on time today, except for the top three on the list, they will all participate in the morning examination."
"Isn't it three days after the morning exam?"
"The Holy One has changed!"
"I see!"
"Tell you quietly, don't tell anyone else." Chen Ergou continued to take a sip of the glazed fire, felt the spicy in his throat, smacked his tongue, and said mysteriously, "The topic of this court exam is the three puzzles of the little princess of Xixia, which is different from the previous court exam. ”
"You can know that the topic is..."Brother Li Luodi has to inch in.
"This old brother doesn't know, that's all he says." Chen Ergou shook his head helplessly.
Seeing this, Li Luodi's eyes flashed, as the saying goes, eating people with a soft mouth and taking people with short hands, the ancients did not deceive me.
It's just that this court exam was actually replaced by Princess Xixia, which is interesting.
