Chapter 485: The Old Man in Red
In the timber shop, there is a large space, with all kinds of wooden utensils on both sides, and a man who is not young or middle-aged sits on the counter in the middle.
After Wu Chenglong walked in, the shopkeeper just put his hand to his head, as if he was dozing off, and he didn't notice any customers entering the store at all.
Seeing this, Wu Chenglong was not in a hurry, while looking at the utensils in this mortal dust, he chose his favorite things for himself.
With Wu Chenglong's vision, the things in this small shop are really out of his eyes. Whether it is the material or the shape, it looks so ordinary and tasteless.
Shaking his head, Wu Chenglong, who sighed in his heart, suddenly coughed a few times.
The sound of "cough cough cough ......" echoed in the store, and the dozing shopkeeper suddenly woke up and rubbed his eyes to look at Wu Chenglong.
"Shop, how do you sell this wooden chair?" Pointing to a wooden chair with a very unique pattern on the right side with his hand, Wu Chenglong opened his mouth first.
The shopkeeper, who woke up like in a dream, stood up unhurriedly after hearing this, first stretched his waist, and then walked out of the counter.
Wu Chenglong glanced at him a few times, and the shopkeeper touched his chin again and exclaimed: "Your Excellency has a vision! This round wooden chair is specially made of willow wood, if you want to buy it, I will give you a special price, seventy copper coins." ”
"Okay, I bought it. Nodding without hesitation, Wu Chenglong also happily conjured up seventy copper coins from his sleeve and handed it to the store.
The shopkeeper took the copper coin, and wanted to continue to recommend a few good woodware to Wu Chenglong with a smile, but saw Wu Chenglong turn around and look at the wine shop opposite, and asked slowly: "The shopkeeper asked, is there any good wine in the wine shop?"
"Yo... It's not from a nearby town......" A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and the shopkeeper asked.
"Yes, let's play, pass through here. Wu Chenglong nodded and replied, but his gaze at the wine shop was unwavering.
Nodding secretly, the shopkeeper also looked at the 'Millennium Wine' that no one had set foot on and said: "Well, sir, don't look at this wine shop and have no business, in fact, the wine brewed by the eldest lady is unparalleled in the world." ”
After saying this, the shopkeeper changed his expression of emotion and continued: "But Mr. didn't have a chance... The wine made by the lady is never sold in a piecemeal. If you want to drink a pot, you can only go to the restaurant on East Street to buy it......"
"Oh, Auntie...... I don't know who the lady in the store's mouth is, and what is so special about the process of making wine......" The look in his eyes changed, and Wu Chenglong suddenly looked at the store with a kind smile.
After glancing at it, the shopkeeper snorted to himself, and began to talk about Wu Chenglong, who had no knowledge.
Half an hour later, Wu Chenglong, who was wearing a blue shirt, walked out of the store and silently watched the 'thousand-year-old wine'.
Behind him, the shopkeeper in the store had already fallen asleep, and he wouldn't wake up without half a day.
Wu Chengchan's stop was a whole afternoon, and when night fell, he finally saw a figure appear in the wine shop.
It was a thin, five-foot-tall old man with half-white hair.
A clean but not bright red dress was worn on her body, and the wrinkles on her face were old, but the bright and bright eyes were still there.
Wu Chenglong, who saw the old man walking out of the store, was suddenly stunned, he had already used his spiritual power to hide himself, and he also used his cultivation to protect Yuanying, but when he looked at the old man in red, the corners of his mouth opened slightly, his eyes trembled, and he was dumbfounded......
At this moment, Wu Chenglong's mind was like thunder, his slowly clenched hands, and his eyes in disbelief all explained his state of mind at this moment.
The old man in red didn't see Wu Chenglong standing opposite, hiding his body, she just took out a piece of wood and slowly sealed the door of the store.
The shop of "Millennium Wine" was closed, and Wu Chenglong, who was standing outside the door, went weak and collapsed on the street.
In the night, he muttered and laughed, and after laughing for a long time, he flicked his sleeves and grabbed the air, and an extra jar of mud-stained wine appeared in his hand.
Lifting the wine stopper and lifting the wine jar, Wu Chenglong poured it in his mouth, and the corners of his eyes slowly turned red.
And in the inner courtyard of the 'century-old shop', there is one jar of wine buried deep in the cellar, and no one notices!
In the courtyard of the courtyard, the old man in red ate some simple meals he made, then made a pot of tea for himself and lit a lamp.
In the room, on a wooden table, tall books are piled high. The words on these books are unrecognizable to no one in the local area, but the old man in red has written tens of millions of words.
Half-lying on the wooden chair, the old man in red picked up a book casually, picked up the page with leaves to write down, and she read it like this.
In the room, although the light was shining, it was extremely difficult to read the words on the book. But the old man in red could see clearly, even without the lamp......
The next morning, the 'Millennial Wine' opened as usual, but when the last door panel was placed, a middle-aged man with messy hair was revealed outside the store.
The old man in red didn't see his appearance, because her eyes were all on her own affairs and didn't pay attention to anything else.
The old man placed the plank in the corner, patted the dust off his hands, and then took out the book in his inner sleeve.
Walking slowly, the old man in red looked at the book in his hand and sat quietly at the counter.
Shortly after he sat down, a sturdy man pulled a cart and stopped in front of the liquor store.
Wiping his hands with a cloth towel, the man picked up the fruit basket and snack box on the cart and walked into the wine shop.
"Aunt Yi, Boss Zhang asked me to send you fruits and snacks, where do you see me putting them?" smiled and raised the things in his hand, and the man came to the counter.
Looking at the man and the things in his hand, the old man shook his head and said, "Just put it on the counter, remember to tell Xiao Zhang next time, don't give these things so diligently, I can't eat them when I'm older......"
"Okay, the little one is responsible for helping you talk to Boss Zhang, but if Boss Zhang doesn't listen, it's not a small one who can talk about it......" Still smiling happily, the man put the fruit and snacks on the counter.
"You, you're very poor,......" shook his head and smiled, and the old man in red said sweetly.
A jar of wine was loaded onto a cart by the big man, fixed with hemp rope, and left in front of the wine shop.
After the cart loaded with its own wine left, the liquor shop at the end of the alley fell into tranquility.
The doors of its shops were always open, but no one entered to buy wine, and the old man in red seemed to have nothing to do but drink tea and eat fruit and read a book.
Wu Chenglong, who was outside the 'Millennium Wine', had been standing on the street, except for using the repair to make the wood shop shop who woke up fall asleep again, he had been looking at the situation inside the wine shop with deep eyes.
Standing in the noisy alley streets, this wine shop and the people in the wine shop can calm down.
However, Wu Chenglong, who was standing outside the wine shop, couldn't calm his heart, he watched motionlessly, as if he was observing something and understanding something.
Time passed very slowly here, until noon, a middle-aged man wearing a long coat with some oil stains and cloth sleeves came over with a food box.
He hummed a little song in his mouth, and came leisurely, unable to find Wu Chenglong.
And when he walked into the wine shop, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Boss, I'll bring you food......
"Don't shout, my ears aren't old enough to hear words......" Hearing the middle-aged man's shout, the old man in red replied curiously.
"Yo, you're reading again, and I don't know what to see...... a few people hurriedly walked to the counter, and the middle-aged man said to himself, then put the food box on the counter, and stretched out his head to read the book in the hand of the old man in red.
With a sigh, the old man put the book down, and after giving the middle-aged man a blank look, he hurriedly opened the food box.
"Are you stealing my food again?" looked at the unfilled food box, and the old man in red asked angrily.
And after he opened his mouth, he directly slapped his right hand and beckoned to the middle-aged man's head.
The middle-aged man seemed to have guessed this scene, his head shrank very quickly, and after avoiding the old man's hand, he said leisurely: "Look at what you said, can I still steal your food every day?"
Saying this, the middle-aged man grinned, turned around and ran away, obviously he had stolen the dishes in the food box again.
Seeing this, the old man in red shook his head helplessly, but the next moment he laughed unconsciously......
Eating lunch alone, the old man in red picked up the book on the counter again and read it with interest.
It seems that in her life, she can't do without those books......
Time was very slow, and it seemed that after a long time, the sun was falling.
As it gets dark, the streets of the alleys become less crowded.
The old man in red in the wine shop walked out slowly, as usual, took out the wooden planks from the corner, and sealed the door of the wine shop.
Taiping Town at night is very quiet, no one will come out to hang out, if you want to find that lively place, only the restaurants and restaurants on East Street.
But the expenses there are so large that ordinary people cannot afford to consume, and this small alley, which is very noisy during the day, is also in stark contrast to East Street when it calms down.
At the end of the alley, under the light blue moon, in the courtyard of the courtyard, the old man in red was busy for a long time before he came out of the wine cellar.
Moving his body and washing his hands with clean water, the old man stood by the flower bed with his eyes in his eyes.
A bucket of water was fought, and a scoop of water was poured under the peach tree that had bloomed, and the old man spoke alone.
When the water was halfway poured, she suddenly laughed, and suddenly said to the plum tree: "Master, you are not as bright as Master......
Saying something that others couldn't understand, the old man in red smiled happily, but Wu Chenglong, who had been standing outside the wine shop and checking with his divine sense, lowered his head silently......
