Late autumn.

Chudu is famous wine, mellow and long, people salivate when they smell it, the wine aroma is rich and far-reaching, and it is rumored that there was a yellow crane flying in the sky, drunk by the aroma of wine, and fell down.

The name of the wine is Drunken Crane.

A hundred years ago, a wealthy man passed by here, heard about this legend, and bought the secret recipe of the brewing of the drunken crane wine, and built a restaurant in the place where the yellow crane fell in the rumor, which is the drunken crane tower.

The Drunken Crane Tower not only has famous food and wine, but also holds the Fighting Crane Conference all year round.

The so-called Fighting Crane Conference is actually a drinking competition, except that it is not people who drink, but cranes who drink. The rules are very simple, the restaurant raises a group of yellow cranes, puts them in the restaurant every day, pours them with wine, and allows customers to bet on which yellow crane will get drunk in the end. The loser loses money and has fun, and the winner can drink the wine that has been stored for more than 100 years for free.

Business in the Drunken Crane Tower is very prosperous.

But only a few people know that the Drunken Crane Tower, which is famous in Chudu, changed owners two years ago.

The new owner of the Drunken Crane Tower is a mysterious woman who wears a veil forever, and the few people who know the news have never seen her true face.

And the guys in the Drunken Crane Tower have also changed a lot of new faces in recent days.

At this time, the woman was waiting for someone in a wing room in the Drunken Crane Tower.

Downstairs, the Fighting Crane Conference was nearing its climax, and many drinkers were noisy, mixed with a few drunken cranes' wails from time to time.

A man in a green shirt and carrying a black sword bag on his back looked at Douhe with interest for a while, then pressed down a piece of silver, and was led by a man from the drunken crane tower to a side room in the box on the second floor.

It was the box where the masked woman was.

The man with the sword on his back pushed open the door, and when he saw the woman, he raised his eyebrows, then shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "You are in the Chu State, and you have been wearing a veil?"

The man's voice was much younger than his appearance.

When the woman saw him, her eyes paused slightly, and after hearing his voice, she nodded, motioned for the man to close the door and leave, and then spoke: "At first, I just didn't want to be seen by others, and what was wrong to provoke, but now, after fighting with Dongfang Dingtian, I naturally have to be more careful, so as not to be recognized by him." ”

Immediately, she also chuckled, "It's not as lucky as you, picking up a personal leather mask is much easier." ”

The man then stretched out his hand with a smile, touched his face, and said, "It's useful to be alive, after all, you're in the enemy camp, so let's take a look at the ugly ones." ”

This pair of men and women is Ye Chong and Li Qiuchan.

Today is the day when Ye Chong first arrived in Chudu, and Li Qiucian is the behind-the-scenes boss of the Drunken Crane Tower, so he asked Ye Chong to come here.

Only, one of them wore a veil, the other with a human skin mask.

"There's no one here, let's be honest with each other, your face looks very awkward. Li Qiucian said, taking the initiative to remove his veil, revealing that beautiful and beautiful face.

Ye Chong pursed his lips, but finally took off the human skin mask and put it in his hand.

He stared at a scar on the human skin mask and said, "Woman, woman, in the end, it's still a creature that looks at faces, don't you think this mask is uglier than me, just say it." ”

Li Qiucian rarely curled the corners of his mouth, and a smile welled up on his face, indeed, there was a hideous scar on the face of the human skin mask, and it was not as comfortable as looking at Ye Chong's delicate face.

At this time, Ye Chong had already sat down, his fingers tapped on the empty tabletop, and said, "Tut-tut, stingy, you are the owner of this shop, and you didn't even prepare the dishes, I thought you were going to pick me up!"

"If you want to eat food and drink, there is an opportunity, but not today. Li Qiuchan's clear eyes blinked, and his voice said crisply: "Wait a while, follow me to the Chu Palace and take you to meet someone." ”

"Chu Palace, who are you seeing?" Ye Chong felt inexplicable, and teased: "I heard that Queen Chu is a beautiful woman of the Chu Kingdom, you don't want to take me to see her, ......right?"

Perhaps because he has a family, Ye Chong feels that in front of Li Qiuchan, the scale of his speech has become larger.

Li Qiucian didn't pay attention to his stubble, but said meaningfully: "You'll know when you go." ”

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the wing.

Li Qiucian and Ye Chong were both the first to put on veils and human skin masks.

"What's the matter?" asked Li Qiuchan in a cold voice.

"Hey, just now, this little master was pressed in the Fighting Crane Conference below, and the little one brought wine to this master. ”

It was the shopkeeper who led Ye Chong over just now.

That's an old guy from Drunken Crane Tower, who has been here for many years, and he didn't quit this guy when Li Qiuchan arranged a lot of people from Black Wind Mountain in this shop.

A false alarm.

Li Qiucian looked at Ye Chong, and there was a lot of blame in his eyes.

Ye Chong grinned and said, "It just so happens that there is a meeting gift when I enter the palace, and the hundred-year-old cellar is drunk with crane wine, in fact, I want to taste it myself." ”

......

Ye Chong followed Li Qiucian out of the Drunken Crane Tower and came to the Palace of the King of Chu.

Li Qiucian seems to come and go here often, carrying the waist card in the walking palace with him, which makes Ye Chong very surprised, he thought that Li Qiucian was lurking in the dark in Chu, but he didn't expect that people would take the high-end route at all.

Ye Chong wore the scarred human skin mask, and was silent all the way, following behind Li Qiuchan, perhaps his face was too frightened, so that the eyes of many guards and eunuchs in the palace would inadvertently fall on him along the way.

"This is my brother. ”

Li Qiucian explained this to the commander of the guards in the palace.

That mask looks like a middle-aged man, and he is indeed older than Li Qiuchan in terms of age, which is also in the past.

After wandering around the palace for a long time, they finally arrived at their destination.

Ruiyun Temple.

Ye Chong didn't know who the owner of Ruiyun Hall was, but what he saw along the way, he had vaguely guessed that what they wanted to see was a concubine of the King of Chu, because they had now arrived in the harem.

They waited for the Lord in the outer temple.

At this time, Li Qiucian explained to Ye Chong in a low voice, "My current identity is the sister of the master of Ruiyun Palace, of course the identity of this sister is fake, just because I have reached some deals with this person, and the matter here will be clear when you see that person." ”

As soon as her words fell, Ye Chong saw a delicate beauty, and she walked towards them with all her words.

The woman's gestures are full of style, her face is full of spring, her smile is full, her skin is like jade, and her waist is soft, which makes people can't bear to look at it sideways.

At this time, Li Qiucian stood up and said something that made Ye Chong like a lightning strike.

"I've seen the queen. ”
