Chapter 52: The General Tells a Story
"Come, come, Brother Jiang You, please take a seat, today you are the protagonist of our brother's invitation. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
There is a large table table in the tent, and all kinds of dishes are available on it. Xu Rong was like a civil official at this time, very exquisite, and led Meng Xiaoshan in. The banquet was already full of six people, all dressed simply, seeing that the two of them were waiting for General Xu to enter, all six of them stood up together, "Filial piety, please."
Inside, Meng Xiaoshan looked around, these six people were of different ages, but they were all young people, the big ones were in their thirties, the small ones were in their twenties, and some of them were still familiar, and they might have seen them on the battlefield. Xiaoshan smiled and said, "Ah, thanks to the invitation of the generals, how can Jiang You sit on top." Still, General Xu sits".
"Hey, how can it be done, filial piety is the guest of honor we want to befriend, deserve to be seated, Lao Xu's family, I won't care" A general who is about thirty years old, his left arm is still hanging on his chest with a wound, and he is familiar with it.
Xu Rong smiled, didn't say anything but acquiesced. Another general, about 20 years old, is the youngest one here, with a slightly stubble on his face, and said, "Brother Zhang is reasonable, filial piety and righteousness." Oh, it turned out that the surname of the general who was injured in his left arm was Zhang, Xiaoshan looked at a few of them again, and he had a little rough idea in his heart, thinking that Xu Rong and the others were good friends, a 'Lao Xu' and a 'Brother Zhang', which is enough to explain. But how to sit, Xiaoshan was unsure for a while, he didn't know much about the etiquette.
"Filial piety, I'm a rough person, I don't know how to be a literati, but I know that you have good martial arts and are the heroes of our Dajing, so don't be polite" A strong general, with wine drops on the corners of his mouth, wanted to drink earlier.
Only then did Xiaoshan realize that since Xu Rong invited him, he seemed to be not ordinary, unlike his style. It turned out that this Xu Rong was learning literati etiquette, and it seemed that he was mistaken by Xu Rong for a literati, Xiaoshan smiled, "Eh, we are all rough people, why bother to engage in literati behavior, what kind of priority and subordination." Let's talk about friendship as friends, how about we sit casually?", he paused and said, "Also, my Jiang You has a nickname, which is a nickname, we are all friends, you can call me 'Xiaoshan', get closer", how good it is to be called 'Xiaoshan', lest I be stunned for a long time when I hear 'Brother Jiangyou' again, Xiaoshan smiled in his heart.
"Uh, Xiaoshan?" everyone was stunned, but soon they all smiled. The sturdy general smiled and said, "Lao Xu, let me say, filial piety is the same as us, so we have to engage in any etiquette." "Haha, too. Sit, sit..." Xu Rong smiled heartily. Everyone is happy, gathered together, exactly eight people, in the original world of Xiaoshan, the seat is generally eight people, haha, this is also a coincidence.
"Xiaoyihou, oh, no, Xiaoshan, come, I'll introduce you to a few brothers"
"Hehe, Lao Xu, I'm waiting for you to introduce"
As soon as he heard 'Lao Xu', Xu Rong was also happy in his heart, and everyone felt closer, so he pointed his finger and said: "This is Zhang Chengde, a military brigade general", and said with a smile, "Haha, in fact, everyone here is basically a brigade general, including me." Except for this guy, he Guo Tian is a regimental general, but he is so young and has such a high position", pointing to the youngest general who had just spoken.
After being introduced by one party, Xiaoshan knew a seven, seven, eighty, eight, eight, and the strong general was surnamed Dang, called Dang Xiangyang, and his surname was quite rare. There are two brothers, Liu Yungui and Liu Yunqing, and Gao Yourang is a general.
After a few glasses, everyone is familiar with each other, so naturally they are constantly drinking. Liu Yungui said, "Xiaoshan, you have spoken out for our two brothers, come, my brothers respect you", Liu Yunqing also raised his glass and toasted. Xiaoshan drank the wine and asked, "Eh??? old gui, this breath is ???" "Xiaoshan, you don't know, my brother and I both lost to that Liu Qiang, hum, he has the help of demons, we can't swallow that breath" Liu Yunqing said. "It's still Xiaoshan who killed him, I Yungui admire" Liu Yungui patted his chest with his hand.
"Oh, hehe, in fact, I just caught up with it and ran into a big luck" Xiaoshan was modest.
"Coincidentally, Xiaoshan, you are too modest" Liu Yungui said directly, "This big luck is not something that everyone can touch." Xiaoshan unconsciously touched the back of his head and smiled. The younger brother Liu Yunqing put down the wine glass and said, "Xiaoshan, how did you break the demon law of the demon way?"
This question is not easy to answer, Xiaoshan thought about it and had to say: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that a Taoist priest told me in my dream that Da Mao's military advisor is his opponent, so let me go to fight, and he will help me break the magic power of the demon path." No, I had the courage to go to fight Liu Qiang, and sure enough, I defeated him. Now that I think about it, the person in my dream is really a god", Meng Xiaoshan never drafted nonsense, after all, he had heard and read many legendary stories in the original world, and now he came by hand. It's just to say the facts as a dream, and the third senior sister as a Taoist.
Everyone at the table stopped their cups and listened, with an incredible expression.
The young man was Zhang Chengde and said suspiciously: "Brother Shan, is it really fake?
Dang Xiangyang also said in disbelief: "Xiaoshan, I don't believe it, how can there be gods and ghosts in the world, let alone dreams." The expressions of Xu Rong and the others were all expressions of disbelief.
Meng Xiaoshan babbled again: "Actually, I don't believe it either, but I did see that Taoist priest in a dream. But now that I think about it, I believe it more and more, if I don't believe it, then what about the demon Dao in the Mao army?"
"Yes, that Mao army has a demon way" As soon as Xiaoshan guided him, several people thought of the demon way, and they didn't realize it again. "Alas, the world is really wonderful, is there really a fairy?" Zhang Chengde felt authentic because of this, but he was in Xiaoshan's arms, and as soon as the topic changed, naturally Xiaoshan didn't need to be distressed. Xiaoshan immediately said with the same feeling: "Yes, is there really that god and ghost at this time?" "It's hard to say, it's hard to say" Xu Rong continued. Na Gao You said: "Who knows." However, it may be true, I heard a relative tell that there was a strange incident in his town, it is said that there is a family, this family loves dogs, but one time in the middle of the night his dog actually cried like a human voice, and his family only felt strange and did not pay much attention, but unfortunately, the next day everyone in the family died mysteriously, which caused a sensation in the whole town, and the dog was nowhere to be found."
"Really, I've heard about this too," Guo Tiandao said. Xiaoshan listened carefully, and suddenly had a feeling, just like in the school dormitory before, everyone talked about some strange things from hearsay, and the atmosphere was really familiar, so nostalgic.
Zhang Chengde said: "What's that, I've heard of a more strange thing, there is a strange thing in our capital, it is said that a scholar who is obsessed with planting flowers once saw a king of ten thousand flowers in a dream, and then he really picked the most beautiful flower in a mountain." This is not surprising enough, and then the flower turned into a beautiful woman and married him." Xu Rong was shocked: "Really, are they still there?" Zhang Chengde said again: "I don't know, but I heard that they live in seclusion in the mountains, and some say that they have become immortals together."
Meng Xiaoshan was shocked, when he heard that story, he thought of Wang Sheng and the Peony Fairy, yes, isn't it their story, they have all been spread.
"What's this, I've also heard that in the previous generation of my hometown, there was a female ghost who didn't leave her home until her children grew up," Liu Yungui said. "Yes, what my brother said, I have also heard it, and our elders all say that it is true," Liu Yunqing also said.
As a result, this banquet has become a place to tell stories, if Pu Songling is here, he is busy, and he is estimated to be able to write with sour hands.
