Jiu Qu and Hou Xiaofeng went out of the room, the caravan outside the inn had already packed up, and the group walked along the business road in front of the Heyi Inn to the south, at this time the guests were already gone, there were not a few people left, the shopkeeper and a few shopkeepers also packed up their things, all of them were crying and mourning, standing at the door of the store and looking at the departing crowd blankly, but they were reluctant to leave.

Jiuqu called the parking team, jumped off the horse and ordered: "Xiaoji, you go and move a jar to relieve a thousand sorrows and send it to the shopkeeper, we have come and gone to live in the store so many times, and the shopkeeper has never treated us lightly." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Ji jumped out of the carriage and ran towards the inn with a jar of wine, and the shopkeeper hurriedly caught up with him and said, "What is this for?!"

Xiao Ji put the wine jar in front of the shopkeeper and replied, "The wine leader has instructed you to bring you a jar to relieve your sorrows, to thank you for your hospitality." ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly went up and grabbed Xiao Ji and said, "This little brother, you take the wine back, who doesn't know that the wine master's wine is expensive, I don't dare to accept it." ”

Xiao Ji was embarrassed: "This is what the wine leader means, if you don't accept it, I can't explain it." ”

The shopkeeper said: "I accepted the kindness, I don't want the wine, and the wine master has not given the store less money, and it is what we should greet you." ”

Seeing the two of them pulling and pulling, Jiuqu shouted from afar: "Shopkeeper, you can take it, even if you don't drink it, your guys will be treated." ”

The shopkeeper looked back at the shopkeepers, sighed, held the wine jar in his arms, and walked back slowly, the shopkeepers came around, and the shopkeeper lamented: "You have followed me for so many years, I should also treat you, drink this to relieve a thousand sorrows, don't cry anymore, come, let's get drunk today." ”

A few shopkeepers followed the shopkeeper back to the inn hall, at this time there was no one in the hall, the empty was not lonely, the shopkeeper put the wine jar on the table, let the little two sit down, and went to the back kitchen to get the wine bowl and distribute it to them, and said: "In the past, you served others, but today there is no one else, and I will pour you a wine." ”

Xiao Er said: "Shopkeeper, let's come." ”

The shopkeeper said: "The gang will be broken up tomorrow, I'm afraid there will be no such opportunity in the future, so I'll come." ”

Another Xiao Er said: "As long as the shopkeeper is here, the Heyi Inn will open again, don't drive us away, we are willing to follow you and wait for the day when it opens again." ”

Several juniors also said in unison: "Yes, shopkeeper, we are all willing to follow you." ”

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said: "Don't talk about this, drinking, drinking, this is not easy to drink, let's also try to see if it can really solve a thousand sorrows." ”

The shopkeeper opened the wax seal of the wine jar, and a very faint aroma slowly spread, drilling straight into the nostrils, the little two sniffed their noses, greedily inhaled thousands of wisps of wine, and then as if a thousand troubles and sorrows were taken away by the wisps of wine, they breathed a long sigh of relief and praised: "Good wine, good wine, the wine of the wine master is really worthy of its name." ”

The shopkeeper poured wine for the little two and said, "I know your thoughts, but today we only drink and don't say anything else, come, I'll do it first as a respect", after speaking, he picked up the wine bowl and drank it clean.

The little two were also silent, they all picked up the wine bowl and drank it dry, after a few rounds of pushing the cup and changing the lamp, the little two were already all drunk, some smirked, some fell asleep, some were in a daze, and there were no sober people.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper put down the wine bowl, took out a small bottle from his arms, and did not know how many drops of something to the place where a wine word was engraved on the wine jar, and the wine word peeled off like a damp earthen wall, and the shopkeeper reached out and touched it, and took a piece of brown paper in his hand.

The shopkeeper unfolded the brown paper, and it was written: "Tonight, I will scatter some seeds on the mountain, and you will lay the stake first, and the koji will be made."

The shopkeeper looked at this piece of kraft paper, crumpled it into a ball with his hands, and threw it into the wine bowl, the kraft paper dissolved in a slump, and finally disappeared completely, the wine in the bowl was still clear and translucent, without a trace, the shopkeeper picked up the wine bowl and spilled the wine on the ground, and whispered: "Guys, I have wronged you all night, and I will sleep in the hall today, but I will not treat you badly if I drink and understand a thousand sorrows and then sleep", after saying that, the shopkeeper got up and walked out of the inn.

The good wine caravan and his party walked out of more than ten miles, and the sound of explosions from the direction of the Heyi Inn along the way was endless, and Jiuqu ordered Lao Wei to rest on the spot, looking into the distance and humming: "It seems that the mountain has begun to be bombed." ”

After the long ditch was dug up, the koji went around the long ditch, took some crumbs from a cloth bag and sprinkled them at the bottom of the ditch, and then took out a jar of wine from the car and poured it into the ditch, and those crumbs were like washed tea leaves, slowly stretched out and spread from a little constricted ball, and after a while, the ditch was completely covered with debris like a thick layer of moss.

Jiu Koji looked at the crumbs in the ditch and shouted, "Old Weitou, bring some cotton cloth and straw mats." ”

Old Wei Tou picked up a few rolls of cotton cloth and straw mats from the car and said as he ran over: "Here, here, young master wine." ”

The koji plucked a gourd from his waist, pulled off the stopper, and poured it into the ditch, and the gourd seemed to contain not only wine, but also seeds, no wonder the guys said that the koji wine is ever-changing, and they don't know what is in each gourd.

Jiuqu collected the wine gourd, asked Lao Wei to cover the straw mat in his hand, and then spread the cotton cloth.

When Lao Weitou cleaned up, Jiuqu called Hou Xiaofeng, Lao Weitou, Hemp Zi, and Er Mazi to one place, and said: "Hou Xiaofeng Hemp Zi and Er Mazi will rest for a while, and go with me to do something tonight, you may not be able to close your eyes overnight, Old Wei Tou, the caravan will be handed over to you tonight." ”

Old Wei nodded and said, "Don't worry, young master wine, I'm here." ”

Hou Xiaofeng knew the intention of the koji, and nodded in response.

Er Mazi raised his eyebrows, his face was full of thieves, and said with a smile: "I said wine koji, do you also remember the general's tomb that Xiucai said, maybe there is a hundred years of aging in it, hehe." ”

Jiuqu suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Er Mazi, who was short and had sharp legs and feet, and withdrew from a position as soon as he turned around, and said with a hippie smile: "Just kidding, just kidding, a little incense said let me and Hemp Zi listen to your orders." ”

Hemp Zi also responded stupidly: "Yes, yes, a little incense said let's all listen to you." ”

Jiuqu looked at the two brothers, one big and one young, and smiled: "It's good to know, a little incense has been said, if you are disobedient, let me fix the two of you." ”

The hemp child blinked, puzzled, "Hey, why didn't I hear", and then as if remembering something, he said: "Oh, by the way, koji, what did you pour just now, there is no smell of wine, but a little smell of grass." ”

Jiukoji's face changed, and he said sharply: "Hemp, your nose is the smartest, believe it or not, you will never smell it again in the future." ”

Hemp Zi hurriedly covered his nose with his hand and said, "Don't, don't, I can't smell it, and it won't smell good." When everyone saw the cute appearance of the hemp seed, they couldn't help laughing, and the hemp seed also laughed and said, "I really want to eat elbows." ”

When he heard the koji, he clapped his hands and said excitedly: "Hemp seeds, two hemp seeds, why don't you two catch some game." ”

Hemp Zi swallowed his saliva, his eyes lit up, and shouted: "Er Mazi, go, go, there is something to do." ”

Er Mazi also raised his eyebrows when he heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said: "I haven't changed it for a long time, Hemp, keep up", and said like a gopher drilling into the depths of the woods.

Hemp Zi also ran with him, although Hemp Zi was huge, he was very flexible when he ran, and he did not lag behind Er Mazi.

Looking at the two brothers who suddenly became vigorous, Jiuqu asked, "Hou Xiaofeng, it's still early, won't you follow?"

Hou Xiaofeng thought about it, he hadn't been active for many days, and catching wild meat also made him itch, but he was too embarrassed to go.
