Swing the sword to fight the clouds Chapter 17: Shangqing moisturizing wine
Well, it seems to be too much. Jian Xin regretted it a little, but since the words had been spoken, he was embarrassed to change the hexagram again: "Please ask the old man to lead the way, and when you get to the place, I will naturally give you ten silver coins." ”
The old man hesitated for a while, then walked forward, but the big deal was to run in vain, and there was no loss to him.
Following the old man, I don't know how many turns, there was a commotion in my ears, and the street in front of me suddenly became wider, and there were countless stalls on both sides, among which the vendors were shouting hard.
The old man continued to walk, explaining: "This is only the periphery of the market, that is, the stall market, and the inside is the shop street, where stalls are not allowed. ”
After walking through the stall street for about ten minutes, Kenshin's eyes lit up, and he saw shops neatly lined up on both sides, such as weapon shops, clothing stores, and liquor stalls, everything, and even the streets were much cleaner.
"Childe, the one in front of you is a shop that sells clothes. The old man pointed to a shop not far ahead.
"Well, thank you, old man. Kenshin took out ten silver coins and handed them to him, and quickly ran to the clothes store. Along the way, from time to time, someone pointed at him, after all, his style was too prominent, bare-chested, a few rags around his waist, and a strange ponytail tied on the top of his head, not like a beggar, but like a wild man.
"Welcome, ah!!" There was only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl in the shop, and when she saw a figure intruding in in a hurry, she intuitively thought it was a customer, and when she saw the appearance clearly, she was suddenly startled, and she couldn't help but exclaim.
"You, what do you want to do? Don't come here. The girl's face was panicked, and although she was across the counter, she still kept retreating, her hands covering her chest.
Damn, what's the matter, is the master so like a pervert? Kenshin noticed that the outsiders looked at him from time to time, and suddenly threw out three gold coins in annoyance: "It's noisy, get me a piece of clothing." ”
"Huh, you're going to buy clothes?" the girl was stunned for a moment, and lowered her guard slightly.
"Nonsense, why don't you buy clothes, hurry up, uh, that's it. Kenshin casually pointed to a set of light blue clothes next to him, looking at the size, even if it didn't fit, it wasn't much worse.
The girl took out the clothes, put them on the counter, and pointed to the inside: "This set of clothes is just two gold coins, and the dressing room is in it, do you want to try it?"
"Of course you have to try. Kenshin grabbed his clothes and rushed in like a gust of wind. Tearing off the strips of cloth on his body in three or two times, he put his clothes on his body, tightened his belt, and found that except for the sleeves that were wider, the place just fitted, so he walked out satisfied.
"Do you have any shoes? Kenshin didn't take back the extra gold coin on the stage, and the shoes on his feet were almost worn out, only two gold coins for a set of clothes, and the shoes were always more expensive than clothes.
After waiting for a long time without answering, he looked up suspiciously, only to see the girl staring at herself with lost eyes, and shook her hand in front of her a few times: "Hey, hey, what do you say?" ”
"What are you talking about?" the girl came back to her senses, her face flushed, and her heart pounded, and she secretly thought that he was so handsome.
"Shoes, if there are any, take them out. Kenshin was a little impatient, it was almost afternoon, and he was hungry.
"Ah, yes, please wait. The girl panicked and walked inside. After a while, he took out a few pairs of shoes: "These are the new arrivals, Childe will see which one is agreeable." ”
"That's it. Kenshin picked out a pair of blue boots, which matched his clothes.
"A total of two gold coins and sixty silver coins, looking for you forty silver coins, do you want anything else?" the girl pushed forty silver coins in front of him.
"Don't. Kenshin put away the silver coins and walked out.
"Welcome to your next visit. The girl watched him go away, and there was a faint sense of loss in her heart.
Coming out of the clothing store, Kenshin looked around for a restaurant, and when he passed a gear store, he stopped and walked in.
The shop was small, half the size of a clothing store, and there weren't many varieties in it, about ten pieces of bronze armor and two pieces of silver, and the price tag was ridiculously high, with the cheapest piece of bronze armor costing thirty gold coins.
After looking at it for a while, Kenshin shook his head and walked out, not to mention that he couldn't afford it, even if he could afford it, he wouldn't buy it, this kind of goods not only couldn't do much defense, but also reduced his speed.
There should be food in the mercenary bar, and there is a mercenary guild next to it, what is this? Kenshin pushed open the door of the bar in confusion, the old man called the god of war of the earth did not tell him about mercenaries.
The bar was very lively, four or five people around the table guessing and drinking, bursting into laughter from time to time, like this, there were more than ten tables. Kenshin's presence drew their attention, and he quickly turned his head back and continued to talk and laugh.
"What do you want?" After he appeared, a young girl came running briskly and led him to an empty table.
Although Kenshin was hungry, he didn't know what was here, so he pointed to the table next to him: "Give me a bottle of wine, and I can eat whatever you want." ”
As soon as the words fell, the door of the bar was rudely slammed open, and then a bearded man carrying a big sword and wearing silver armor walked in, about thirty years old, followed by four, one was dressed as a spiritual priest, and the other three were also wearing armor, which should be warriors.
"Boss, two bottles of golden wheat and a plate of roasted sheep. The bearded man ignored the gaze around him, found an empty table, and sat down with a grin.
The proprietress who was originally keeping accounts at the counter raised her head in surprise: "Yi Chen, did I hear me right? You just said that you want Jinmai?
The proprietress is not old, not only is she not old, but she is still very young, if it weren't for the mature charm on her body, she really wouldn't have thought that she was married.
"Hahaha, don't worry. The bearded man named Yi Chen laughed loudly, took out a bag of gold coins from his waist, and spread it on the table: "I just completed a task and made a fortune, and your wine money is indispensable." ”
Task?Earn a fortune?Kenshin listened to it, and quickly focused his attention, as if he saw a way to make money.
After a while, the young girl brought the wine and food, and Kenshin stopped her and asked in a low voice, "Miss, where can I get a job that can make money?"
"Huh, isn't Childe a mercenary? This is a mercenary bar. The girl asked strangely, and her high-pitched voice drew all the attention of the bar.
Feeling dozens of glances, Kenshin's face was hot, and he said, "This, I'm not a mercenary, I'm just here to eat." ”
Eating??!
There was silence at first, then bursts of laughter.
"Little brother, do you want to make money? The bearded man named Yi Chen seemed to be in a good mood, and he came to Kenshin and sat down next to Kenshin with a bottle of wine.
"Big brother, please sit down, the kid just came out of the mountains, I don't understand anything, please help explain it, come, taste the wine made by our mountain people." Kenshin quietly hid his hand under his clothes, and took out a bottle of fruit wine from the ring, and it was better if the space ring could not be exposed.
"Hey, you seem to have a good wine. Yi Chen shrugged his nose vigorously, and the fragrance of the fruit wine was much richer than the Golden Wheat Wine in his hand. Kenshin wasted no time in pouring a full cup for him.
"Hiss~~~ Good wine, strong enough, fragrant in the teeth, hot in the lower throat, ***, Lao Tzu used to drink water. Yi Chen swallowed a cup in one gulp, and his black face began to redden.
Isn't it strong? Kenshin was stunned for a moment, then poured a glass of ordinary wheat wine and tasted it, bah, his uncle's is really similar to water.
"Yi Chen, are you demolishing my platform? Don't forget, you have Golden Wheat Wine in your hand. The barmaid left the counter at some point, walked over to Kenshin and said, "Childe, can you let me taste it? ”
"You can taste it, home-brewed wine is not worth a few dollars. Kenshin shoved the wine in front of her.
Seeing the proprietress pour a full cup, Yi Chen's black face was slightly convulsed, and it looked very painful.
The proprietress didn't drink it all, but took a sip, then closed her eyes and savored it carefully.
After a long time, when she opened her eyes, the proprietress exhaled softly: "As Yi Chen said, the fragrance in the teeth, the lower throat is hot, which makes people unconsciously swell with pride, no worse than the general's blood, son's wine, can it have a name?"
"Name? The proprietress said with a smile, the wine made by the mountain savages is all their own thirst quenching, where does it come from? ”
"The wine is as clear as water, and the throat is like a fire, there is not only the pride of the world, but also the desolation of the twilight of the hero.
"Shangqing Runze Wine, good, good name, Shangqing Runze Wine, the old rain is empty, who tastes Xinfeng wine." In the future, there will be another famous wine in the Silver Moon Continent. Yi Chen slapped his thigh and took the opportunity to fill a glass for himself, this time, the bottle of fruit wine was about to bottom out.
"Little brother, I don't know if there is a way to make wine?" the proprietress flashed in her eyes, and quickly retracted.
No wonder they are so active in naming names, this is the goal. Kenshin pretended to smile bitterly and said, "This is all brewed by the elders in the village, and the kid only brought ten bottles with him this time, seven of which were collected by the gatekeeper general, and there are only three bottles now." After saying that, he took out two more bottles from under his clothes, plus one bottle on the table, and it seemed that was all there was to it.
Since taking out the wine, dozens of eyes have been shot at the brush, and Jian Xin's eyes have rolled: "Thanks to the proprietress who can afford it, she has taken such a majestic name, this bottle of wine is a thank you for the kid, please don't see it." With that, he handed over one of the bottles.
The proprietress took it and asked, "I wonder if the little brother remembers the name of the gatekeeper general?"
