Chapter 006: Tuyu Lodge (6)
Two people, two jars of wine, pushed the cup into the lamp, and the time passed quickly.
The sky darkened again before I knew it, and it was still pouring spring rain outside.
Bai Luoshang's eyebrows and eyes were already covered with drunkenness, and the scholar was even more drunk.
Qiu Lifeng sat alone in the room, and when he saw that Bai Luoshang hadn't come back for a long time, he guessed that he must have gone to drink, and he didn't bother to move, so he simply fell asleep in the room.
The spring rain is abundant, in addition to being suitable for drinking, it is also suitable for sleeping.
The innkeeper sat at the counter, yawning, and the proprietress had already fallen asleep.
Finally, there were customers in the store, and they collected a lot of money for wine, so they naturally wanted to serve people well, but they didn't expect these two people to be so able to drink, it was so late, and they didn't have a good time.
The scholar was lying on the table, in front of him was an overturned wine jar, and the wine in it was not poured out, but drunk by him and Bai Luosheng together, but he drank relatively little, most of it was drunk by the weak man in front of him.
Staring at Bai Luoshang in a daze for a long time, the scholar asked in a daze, "What wine did you drink...... What does it smell like?"
Bai Luoshang hugged the wine jar, and had been looking at the place on the second floor just now, but now when he heard the scholar talking to him, he turned around, ate and replied with a smile: "Sweet, what did you drink?"
"Bitter. The scholar froze at the wine jar that had been knocked over by himself, and complained, "I have never drunk such a bad wine, so bitter, even more bitter than Coptis chinensis, how can anyone like to drink it?"
How can wine be bitter? Wine is clearly the best thing in the world.
Bai Luoshang looked at the scholar, smiled again, and said, "You must often drink alone?"
The scholar also looked at him and asked puzzledly, "How do you know that I always drink alone?"
Bai Luoshang said with a smile: "Because only one person drinks stuffy wine is bitter." ”
The scholar smiled bitterly twice and did not speak, but he couldn't deny that Bai Luoshang was right. He didn't know if the wine was bitter when someone else was drinking. But in his life, wine has always been bitter, he has always been drinking alone, and no one has ever drunk with him.
Bai Luoshang looked at the dark night outside, looked upstairs again, and said with emotion: "The day passed so fast, and now it's dark again." ”
The scholar glanced at him, lowered his eyelids again, "You're in a hurry to go back?"
Bai Luoshang was puzzled: "Where are you going?"
"Fang. The scholar turned over and wanted to open his eyes, but his eyelids were too heavy after being drunk, and he really couldn't open his eyes, "I see that you have looked upstairs several times, is there a beauty waiting for you upstairs?"
Bai Luoshang smiled bitterly: "What awaits me is only a lonely and cold night, how can there be any beauty." What to do when you go back, you might as well stay here and drink and chat with you. ”
The scholar also smiled bitterly and said, "It's not fun to just stay here and drink." ”
"If you don't find it interesting to drink here, I have a good proposal. Bai Luoshang knocked on the table and said unhurriedly, with a smile in his eyes, "I can introduce you to a good place, and when you get there, maybe you don't want to leave." ”
The scholar asked, "What's in that place?"
Bai Luoshang squeezed her eyes: "That place has what all men in the world want, and when you get there, you will find that as long as you can think of it, there are all there in that place." ”
The things that men all over the world want, of course, are in the Huaguan Restaurant.
The scholar looked at him for a long time, pursed his lips slightly, and said after a while: "I know what you are talking about, but I won't go." ”
Bai Luoshang looked at the scholar in surprise, and after making sure that he was not talking, he couldn't help but say loudly: "I haven't said anything yet, you actually know what I'm talking about, you are really a smart person." But I don't understand, why don't you go if you know what that place is?"
The scholar replied dryly, "I don't want to go." ”
"Why don't you want to go?" Bai Luoshang sighed, "Since you know what kind of place it is, you must also know that no man will not want to go." ”
The scholar said disdainfully: "There are exceptions to everything, and I am that exception." In my opinion, it's better to go to that kind of place than to stay here and drink. ”
Bai Luoshang patted him on the shoulder, "You are not only a smart person, but also a strange person. ”
The scholar smiled, his eyes were hazy, his face was red, and he didn't look so much like a stranger as he looked more like a nerd.
Bai Luoshang hugged the wine jar and sighed in a low voice: "I really don't understand why you want to be an exception, you don't even understand the least fun of men." ”
The scholar looked at him lazily, "If you really understand the pleasures of men, why do you appear here to drink with me?"
Bai Luoshang looked upstairs again, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's hard to say." ”
If it weren't for Qiu Lifeng, he would have arrived in Fengzhou by now, maybe he would be swimming in the lake with a beautiful woman to enjoy the lanterns at this time.
The scholar found Bai Luoshang and looked upstairs again, so he couldn't help but quip: "I'm afraid it's not a lonely and cold night waiting for you above, I see that you are also in trouble, so you appeared here to drink." ”
Bai Luoshang shook his head and smiled bitterly, looking like he didn't say much, and after drinking for a while, he asked casually: "You appeared here to drink, and you also ran into trouble?"
The scholar first sighed, then smiled bitterly, then hesitated, and after a moment of silence, he sighed and said: "Wine is bitter, not as bitter as my heart, do you know what makes a man's heart bitter the most in this world?"
Bai Luoshang can answer without thinking about it: "Of course it's a woman, and it can only be a woman." ”
Hearing him say this, the scholar seemed to have found a confidant, suddenly grabbed the other party's hand, and spat out bitter water endlessly.
said a lot, but summed it up in just two sentences, the ambition to fail the exam was lost, and the beautiful woman married him*.
It is not clear what it feels like to be in the scientific examination to be unsuccessful, but the feeling of his beloved woman marrying him* is still understandable.
The scholar was secretly sad, his eyes were red, and his tone was a little self-deprecating and a little sad: "You say, are all women in this world so fickle? ”
Bai Luoshang looked at the scholar, and suddenly thought of someone in his heart, and as soon as his emotions came up, he couldn't help but slap the table excitedly. Bai Luoshang suddenly found that he and the scholar were not only the same kind on the wine glass, but also the same fate in the matter of women, and felt a little sad.
It seems that the women of the world are really unreasonable and unpredictable many times.
Bai Luoshang shook his head and sighed, and said, "The women in the world are all incomprehensible. ”
The scholar raised his head, "Are all the women in the world the same?"
Bai Luoshang shook her head slowly, "I don't know if it's all the same, but I know that men in the world will be hurt by women." ”
The scholar's eyes widened in disbelief, "Could it be that you and I are both fallen people at the end of the world?"
"Not me. Bai Luoshang shook his head and sighed lightly, and then looked upstairs, his eyebrows were stained with sadness, "It's the person upstairs, a sad man." ”
The scholar opened his mouth even more in disbelief and looked upstairs, "It turns out that the person who is the same person as me is there." ”
Bai Luoshang nodded, "He's been sleeping all day, he doesn't go out, and he doesn't see anyone." ”
The scholar frowned, "I understand his feelings, and I am as reluctant to go out as he is, and I don't want to see anyone." ”
Bai Luoshang couldn't help but ask him: "Then you still go out alone to drink and stay in such a remote inn?"
The scholar sighed twice and sat down again, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, "I don't want to go, I don't want to go anywhere, but I have a letter on my body, urging me to go home, I have to go, and I can't go without leaving." ”
Bai Luoshang smiled bitterly: "My friend was reluctant to go out at first, he didn't want to go anywhere, but he also had a reason to go out, he wanted to rob his relatives." ”
"What?" The scholar thought that he had misheard, and still frowned tightly, "You say, he is going to rob his relatives?"
Bai Luoshang pretended to be very heavy, and sighed: "Do you think he is asking for discomfort? That kind of woman, don't want it, what else is there to rob?"
"You don't understand. The scholar jumped up suddenly, his eyebrows tightened a little, and his eyes looked upstairs with a little sadness, "You are not him, how do you know how important that woman is to him, I am different from you, I can understand his feelings, I know that sad feeling." ”
"Really?" Bai Luoshang glanced at him, his mood was slightly complicated, "I don't understand that feeling, and I don't understand why he has to rob his relatives?"
"When you have the woman you love, you will understand. The scholar sat back with his head down, puzzled: "Since you are going to rob your relatives, why do you stay here and not leave?"
Bai Luoshang sighed twice, "How to go, the horse has let him run away, and now the two of us have one horse, no matter how much time we hurry, we can't catch up." ”
"Nonsense. The scholar laughed suddenly, the pair of tightly wrinkled eyebrows suddenly relaxed a lot, his eyes became brighter, his depressed expression was also swept away, and he said with a little excitement: "How can it be a horse? There are clearly two horses in the stable." ”
There were indeed two horses in the stable, a red date horse and a white horse.
Bai Luoshang looked at him, looked directly at the kind gaze in his eyes, blew his nose with his index finger, and said in a low voice: "However, one of them is yours, and the red date horse is ours." ”
"For you. The scholar patted his chest and said, "You and I are drinking here, which means that we are destined, and I am in the same situation as your friend, so I am destined for him, since I am so fated with you, I naturally want to help others." To help others is to help oneself, and a horse is not worth mentioning at all. ”
Bai Luoshang sighed secretly, and said in his heart, this person is really strange, and I don't know if he is generous, stupid, or really drunk.
Although it is a lie, Bai Luosheng is not vain at all, even in the face of such generosity and righteousness as a scholar, he will not feel any guilt, but pretend to say: "How can this be done? You invite me to drink, how can I be embarrassed to take your horse again? Or I will pay you to buy it, okay?"
The scholar waved his hand and said arrogantly: "It's just a horse, you just have to take it, if I want to use a horse, I naturally have a way to find another one." ”
Hearing him speak so generously, Bai Luoshang wanted to say something, squirmed her lips, and finally didn't say anything, just unconsciously showed a smile on her lips.
