Chapter 033: The Fragrant Wine Beggar
Although this town is not as prosperous as Chang'an, it is still very lively to catch up with the golden autumn harvest.
Ren Qinglian walked aimlessly, and before she knew it, she had come to a restaurant.
Heroes Building.
Looking at the big signboard with golden characters hanging high on the eaves, Ren Qinglian felt that this name was a bit vulgar, but it was also a characteristic of this era.
There is a bamboo pole at the door of the restaurant, and a large curtain of "wine" is raised high, fluttering slightly.
It seems to greet pedestrians.
Ren Qinglian glanced around, and the second child in the store was already wearing a white towel, and greeted him with a smile on his eyelids.
"Is this young man a top boy or a hotel?"
Ren Qinglian came back to her senses, "Eat whatever you want!"
Although Xiao Er was a little disappointed, when he saw his brocade clothes and jade face, he looked like he was either rich or expensive, so he immediately nodded twice, and said respectfully: "Son, please go upstairs and sit, there is a seat upstairs, hehe, clean and clean, you are satisfied——"
Ren Qinglian snorted and entered the restaurant.
It was noisy and noisy, and there were many diners.
When the shopkeeper saw Ren Qinglian's dress, he smiled and nodded, and then began to squint and crack again.
After Ren Qinglian glanced at the audience, she was led by Xiao Er to a seat by the window upstairs.
"Cut half a catty of beef first, and then pick your best dishes, and have two or three things!"
The shopkeeper was overjoyed, poured him tea, set the dishes and chopsticks, and said, "Okay, the little one will go, wait a minute!"
As he spoke, he bent down and bowed away.
Ren Qinglian took a sip of tea, and secretly thought in her heart: "With the arrogant and domineering character of the poisonous demon, the appearance of this neighborhood will inevitably attract the attention of people with hearts, and this hero building is full of people, but it is also a good place to find out the news." ”
Thinking about it, he was distracted by the conversation of the people downstairs.
Although his strength is still first-class martial artist, his internal strength is pure, and his muscles and bones have actually surpassed the average first-class martial artist in some aspects after being washed and polished by yin and yang internal strength, and he is not far behind the grandmaster martial artist.
Soon, he was attracted by the conversation between two burly men with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
......
The black-faced man on the left said: "Brother Liu Xian, what you just said about the dozen or so people in Lijiazhuang all died of bizarre poison overnight, how did the yamen deal with it later?"
The man surnamed Liu on the opposite side took a sip of wine, cleared his throat and said, "You know, my brother is working in the yamen, but this case-"
When he said this, he looked in all directions for a moment before he lowered his voice and said, "I heard that it was done by a certain big devil on the rivers and lakes, and it has been temporarily taken over by the six gates this morning!"
"Hey! The six doors are all alarmed, these people in the rivers and lakes have a bad life all day long, and it is too frightening to fight and kill. The black-faced man looked shocked.
In order to enhance their influence, Liumen is robbing business with the government yamen in many cases, but generally speaking, unless it is a real fight, the yamen is unwilling to hand over the case.
"There's one more thing I'm afraid you don't know," the man surnamed Liu deliberately played tricks on Guan Zi and took a sip of wine before continuing: "Six Gates came to us this time, in fact, to hunt down the ...... of a hall master of the Sword Worship Pavilion."
Ren Qinglian had been listening to these two men talking, and as soon as her heart moved, she guessed that this hall master was probably Bai Yunxiu.
When he was thinking about this, the shopkeeper had already brought a large plate, brought the dishes to the table, and said, "Childe, the dishes you want ......?"
Ren Qinglian nodded, "Does the Sword Pavilion have a rudder in the local area?"
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses before saying: "The Fuwei Dart Bureau in the town is the rudder of the Sword Worship Pavilion......"
Ren Qinglian was thoughtful and motioned for the shopkeeper to go down first.
Suddenly, a hoarse and loud voice came from downstairs:
"Go, go, go...... You snobbish fellows, don't look at the old man who is dressed in tatters, and he won't let me go upstairs, hmph......!
While speaking, there was a sound of pedaling near the stairs, and Ren Qinglian had already seen an old beggar with messy hair coming up.
The shopkeeper was bumped into his arms, and when he saw the person coming clearly, he couldn't help but scold: "It's always called Huazi, don't come to our hero building if you're drunk and crazy, be careful that my second master beats you!"
The brother of the shopkeeper of this shop is the martial artist of the Fuwei Dart Bureau, and his status is not low, in order to worship the prestige of the Sword Pavilion, the shopkeeper also looks like he is not afraid of the sky and the earth when he speaks.
Ren Qinglian found that although this old beggar was drunk and staggering, his steps were not as frivolous as ordinary people after getting drunk, knowing that the other party was full of martial arts, and he was probably still a first-class martial artist, so he immediately smiled and said: "Xiao Er, bring another pot of good wine, this old man's money is counted on this son!"
"Hmph, you're in luck. The shopkeeper scolded and scolded, and then let the old beggar go downstairs to get wine.
"I always ask flowers to drink and never pay for it......" The old beggar swayed, but the target was directly at Ren Qinglian's table.
Ren Qinglian saw that he was carrying a big cyan wine gourd, and before he got close, he smelled a strong aroma of wine.
The aroma of the wine came suddenly, and several guests upstairs also noticed the aroma and turned their heads to look at it one by one.
One of them suddenly shouted: "The wine is fragrant, but the old man is a beggar?"
"Piaoxiang wine beggar?" Ren Qinglian secretly paid this person is really a hidden master, searching for memories, only blaming that Ren Dashao is unlearned, knows nothing about the things on the rivers and lakes, and has no impression of this Piaoxiang wine beggar.
At this time, the old beggar was already sitting opposite Ren Qinglian, and he was not polite, he reached out and took a pair of chicken wings and gnawed on them.
Ren Qinglian frowned strangely.
At this time, a big man who was a little closer to him sniffed his nose vigorously and scolded: "Fuck, damn it's 'floating incense', this old man makes Hanako's whole body stink, even the wine gourd on his back can't cover the smell on his body, bad luck ......."
As he spoke, he had no appetite and went downstairs.
The guest who called out "Piaoxiang Wine Beggar" before was also annoyed, glared at Ren Qinglian hatefully, and followed downstairs.
Ren Qinglian smiled bitterly, and at this moment, the power of the Nine Shadows Pupil in his eyes suddenly became ready to move.
"Old man, have you been poisoned?"
The old beggar who was eating and drinking suddenly raised his head, and his eyes flashed with light, and then he began to eat again.
Ren Qinglian saw that he would pour a stream of liquor every few bites, and the stench on his body became more and more intense, and suddenly seemed to have discovered something incredible, and shouted: "Use liquor to suppress cold poison, your stink is actually just a toxin forced out!"
