Chapter 3 Get acquainted with wine, talk, and joy

"You girl is amazing, you wake up the dreamer with a word. So many people have gone to Tao Mengxiang to change the luminous cup, why don't you go?"

"I'm not made of mud, and I'm not interested in that cheap uncle. "I was busy drinking the worm wine that Meng Yunsheng earned, so I didn't have time to deal with him.

Meng Yunsheng also drank the wine slowly, holding the folded fan in one hand and not forgetting to knock on my head, "Okay, you girl, the wine I earned with all my might, you drank happily!"

I knew that he didn't really care, but he still hooked the wine jar with his hand, and said with a smile: "I'll share some of it for you, it's not that your old man is old and drinks by mistake." ”

Meng Yunsheng sighed: "Then you are a girl, what do you like? You actually like to drink and listen to me, an old man?"

"Womanly demeanor!" I retorted.

"By the way, Qi girl, why don't you see your senior brother?"

I drank the jar of worm wine in front of me in one go, wiped my mouth and said, "Hide from debts! He's always been a merry man......"

"Hey, storyteller, who are you two talking about?"

As he was talking, the bearded man came over with two jars of worms and two wines. Speaking of which, ten jars of wine on our table were bought by the bearded man.

The bearded man also sat down at the same table, and Meng Yunsheng replied, "Have you ever heard of her senior brother Merry Valley?"

"Moshang Villa's Merry Valley, I know. You are a scholar in Jinling, and I know it. The bearded man asked me, "What is this woman's name?"

I said, "Woman." ”

The bearded man obviously didn't understand.

"Heroines don't leave names. People in the rivers and lakes, just call me a woman. ”

"Fun and interesting!" the bearded man clapped his hands and laughed, "I just like to meet interesting people." ”

"Come, today I have the honor to meet two scholar women, let's have a drink!"

"How can you not call me when you drink?" a sword fell from the sky and picked up the jar of wine on the table. I turned around and saw a white-clad swordsman looking up and drinking it up, looking extremely bold.

"There is no time to send a thin man. The white-faced thin man sat down on the table with the empty jar of wine.

The bearded man was surprised, "You are the deputy head of the Flawless Sect, Liu Ruyan?"

Liu Slender looked embarrassed, "I am most ashamed of others to call this name." ”

"I'm just a rough man. The bearded man waved his hand and clenched his fists with both hands, "It's not as decent as your martial arts." My name is Long Dahan, and I am a butcher. Sell pork for a day in this Jinling City, and drink wine for a day in the alleys. The knife I played with was also this pig-killing knife. ”

Long Dahan showed the pig-killing knife on his back and put it on the table happily, his true temperament was not pretentious. Liu Slender Man's annoyance dissipated, and he said with a smile: "What a big man who kills pigs and swordsmen!"

"Pig killing knife?" Long Dahan slapped the table and laughed, "This alias is good! ”

"Then I wish the Dahan brothers an alias, and I wish the four of us a fateful acquaintance," Meng Yunsheng invited, raised his glass and said, "Let's have a drink." ”

Wine is a thing, one person drinks it is sorrowful, two people drink it is love, and everyone drinks it together to know the fun in wine. It should also be interesting enough to drink to people with a temperament. In the past, it was me and Meng Yunsheng who drank together, and at most I added my senior brother. Now there are two more interesting drinking friends, and it is inevitable to be greedy for a few more bowls. After the bottom of the altar was empty, Meng Yunsheng said: "I'm a little tired of drinking alone, why don't we do gambling to help the fun?"

I was interested, "Bet on what?"

"Just bet on how long that gray-shirted kid is going to peek at us. ”

I, Long Dahan, and Liu Shouzi looked in the direction of Meng Yunsheng's hundred-fold fan. The gray shirt was still shrunk in the corner, leaving only a silhouette of a solitary drinker.

Meng Yunsheng affirmed: "I bet that he will move before he drinks a glass of wine." ”

The glasses of the grey shirt were smaller than the bowls in the shop, and he drank very slowly, and he didn't seem to be very good at drinking. I found that he had a habit of smelling wine before it was tasted. Sure enough, he poured the next glass of wine out of the jar and frowned as he settled under his nose.

"Xiao Er, why is your wine rancid?"

Xiao Er in the store came over with a white scarf, saw the gray shirt with an angry face, and said with a smile: "Guest officer, you are laughing, how can the wine be rancid?"

The gray shirt sniffed at the wine cup again, pinched his nose, and was disgusted, "There is obviously a strange smell in this wine, you can smell it yourself." ”

Xiao Er avoided the wine cup he raised, took off the white scarf with his backhand and cleaned up the table behind him and said, "Guest officer, what kind of reason are you? ”

Gray shirt scolded: "Who is still rare for this little wine money? Your wine is obviously rancid, don't dirty my good wine cup." He poured the wine from the cup, dropped a few strings of money, and turned away.

Liu Slender Man saw through the mystery like me, and saw that his expression seemed to be smiling, and he raised his eyebrows: "It turns out that Meng Yunsheng is good at storytelling, and he is also proficient in reading a few things." ”

Long Dahan suddenly jumped up from his seat, picked up the pig-killing knife and stopped the gray shirt who was walking in a hurry. He didn't care about the subsection, and shouted straightly: "Listening to the wall is not a glorious thing at all, and now that you are seen through and want to find an excuse to escape, what kind of hero are you!"

The gray shirt was not afraid of the pig-killing knife, and the scoundrel said: "I am not a hero." What kind of man are you, and what kind of hero are you to hold a knife against a helpless man?"

Long Dahan put away his knife, "I don't dare to call myself a hero, a tough guy who kills pork is called Long Dahan." ”

The gray shirt clenched his fists and said in a flat tone: "My name is Yan Wuyi." ”

I recited silently, and I had strange names.

"When did there become a family with the surname Yan in Jinling City?"

Yan Wu also turned his head to look at me, the pair of black and thick eyebrows with the waxy face was really a bit exaggerated, he said: "The surname Yan is just the down-and-out children in this Jinling City, and it is normal for the girl not to know." ”

Long Dahan asked him, "Why are you eavesdropping on us?"

Yan Wu was also unashamed, pointed at Meng Yunsheng and said angrily: "You are a weak scholar, how do you know everything about the family affairs of the Yan Mansion?

Meng Yunsheng drank wine and shook his fan without saying a word, and Liu Slender said for him: "The most taboo thing in the rivers and lakes is to ask people about their ability to eat." One line is higher than one line, what are you not good at learning, learning from others to dismantle the stage? Forgive you for being a fledgling yellow-haired boy, so you don't care. ”

Long Dahan didn't bother to talk to him anymore, sat down and continued to drink with us. I held the wine bowl, thinking of the black catcher who had left in a hurry just now, and I was suspicious, so I asked.

"You say, can the black catcher find Tao Mengxiang of the palace grandmother?"

Meng Yunsheng chattered again: "I'm afraid that Grandma Gong can't find it, and there is still a play in finding Tao Mengxiang." ”

I, Liu Shouzi and Long Dahan looked at Meng Yunsheng at the same time, and even Yan Wu, who had just stepped out of the gate of the alley with his front foot ten miles away, came back and said, "Are you talking about Grandma Gong?"

"Bao Buqi is nonsense. The thin man said to him, "Do you still want to hear it?"

Yan Wu also sat down in a daze, "Grandma Gong still has to listen." As he spoke, he began to pour wine into the glass he had brought with him. I saw that it was a wine glass made of wood, with some patterns carved on the rim, and the splicing was not visible.

I said, "Your glass is quite chic." ”

Yan Wu also waved his hand, "An ordinary cup at home is not chic. That being said, I saw that his hands were tightly guarded.

"Mr. Big Dream, please speak. Probably seeing Meng Yunsheng raise his eyebrows, Yan Wuyi added, "I'll invite you for this meal." ”

"I'm a weak scholar and only know a little bit about it, and maybe eight or nine of the ten sentences are false, so it's up to you to judge whether it's nonsense. Meng Yunsheng has never been able to suffer in his mouth, so he let out a few words before continuing to listen to him, "As we all know, the heir of the Western Regions Refining Incense, Gong Lao Ma, is famous for refining Tao Mengxiang. Tao Mengxiang resembles a pearl of the South China Sea, and when dissolved in water, it turns into a misty fragrance and illusion, which can kill people invisibly. The old grandmother of the palace alone holds the skill of refining Tao Mengxiang, and the success is also in it, and the defeat is also in it. More than ten years ago, Tao Mengxiang disappeared from the rivers and lakes together with the grandmother of the palace. But I also heard that I knew that in fact, Grandma Gong left a Tao Mengxiang on the rivers and lakes before she disappeared. ”

"Who did she leave behind?" Yan Wu also interjected.

Meng Yunsheng slowed down and deliberately said word by word: "Her old man is good-looking, old man Brown." ”

Yan Wu also sat next to me, and I could clearly feel that his back was a little stiff, and one hand was gripping his wine cup tightly, trembling slightly.

Strange, why is this person angry when he hears about the Yan family, and he is also angry when he hears that the old lady of the palace and the old man are also angry?

Liu Slender asked, "Are you talking about the old man on the edge of Mumo Lake at the foot of Xiancheng Mountain?"

"Exactly, it is also the old man who created the original ghost fire palm. ”

"I've heard about it, too. Liu Slender frowned, "It is rumored that although the old lady of the palace is the heir of refining incense, but the incense poison is on the line, she has refined the evil Tao Mengxiang, and she is already a demon girl who kills people without blinking." Brown was originally from a decent background, but he secretly learned the crooked ways of the evil sect, created his own ghost fire palm, and was expelled from the school. It's no surprise that the two of them are a couple. ”

I asked, "What happened then, what happened next?"

Meng Yunsheng shook his head, "Later, the old lady of the palace disappeared, leaving the old man with brown lily to guard the Mumo Lake under the Xiancheng Mountain, as for why, isn't this a mystery on the rivers and lakes?"

"Even you don't know?" I laughed at him, "It turns out that there are still things in the world that you don't know." ”

"The world is so big," Meng Yunsheng put away the fan of "Big Dream Life", and said lightly, "I don't even know one or two." ”

I smiled at him and lifted our bowls of wine.

Long Dahan patted his head, as if thinking, "But can the Black Mountain Divine Catcher get Tao Mengxiang from the old man Brown Lily?"

Liu Slender snorted: "Demon people, how can they be so easy to deal with?"

"The old man was a martial artist, and he once said that if anyone could overcome his Ghost Fire Palm, he would make that man a promise. Meng Yunsheng paused, "However, in my opinion, there are three difficulties for the black catcher to get Tao Mengxiang in the hands of the old man Brown Lee. ”

"Which triple difficulty?"

Long Dahan's expression was urgent, and he must have guessed it after pondering for a hundred years. And I saw Meng Yunsheng smiling and shaking the fan gently. Liu Slender only drank wine, and he also looked like he knew it well. Yan Wu also looked at a loss like Long Dahan.

Alas, anyway, the big man refused to speak, so I could only let the little man speak.

"The old man's internal strength is unfathomable, coupled with his original ghost fire palm, there are few people in the rivers and lakes who are his opponents. It will not be easy for the Black Catcher to defeat him, and this is a difficult one. I said, "The second difficulty, we all know this person in Montenegro." is a dignified god, and the most despised are the children of the rivers and lakes. If you ask him to ask for something from a person in the rivers and lakes, it is estimated that it will make him uncomfortable than killing him. I don't know if he is willing to pull down his face and beg for someone this time. ”

"And this third difficulty," I asked the dragon man, "if you were to give away to someone what you had given you, would you agree?"

Long Dahan shook his head and sighed after hearing this. Yan Wu also drank sullen wine without saying a word. The five of us were silent for a while, and then we heard the sound of a fight coming from ten miles through the alley. I expected that someone was rushing this way with his peerless skill.
