Chapter 60: Drunken Flowers
After Murong Feng walked out of the study, he opened the hard-won book and read it.
Sure enough, it didn't come out of nowhere, but the book did have what he wanted.
It turned out that as Zhong Dushan said, this book records that there was an old man who had martial arts in the past, in order to keep his son with extraordinary abilities away from the troubles of the rivers and lakes, and then began to look for a way to seal the energy in his son's body. Later, after searching in all directions, I finally found a capable person, and then all the stories were as everyone expected.
However, since the book may be very old, then, the page of the capable man recorded in that book seems to be soaked with water, and I don't know it.
Alas, Murong Feng, who was still full of confidence just now, was like frost hitting an eggplant at this moment, and once again fell into despair.
In desperation, Murong Feng heard someone calling him.
Murong Feng looked back and saw that it was Zhong Shen.
So, Murong Feng told him everything.
Listening to Murong Feng's words, Zhong Shen also suddenly fell into anxiety.
"Brother Murong, how can this be good? I finally found the book, but the most critical handwriting on the book is not clear. Zhong Shen looked regretful.
"Alas" Except for sighing, Murong Feng didn't know what to say.
"Brother Murong, let's go see my father together and see what he can do. ”
So, Murong Feng followed Zhong Shen to the living room.
After listening to the two people's stories, Zhong Dushan also made a difficulty.
Suddenly, Mrs. Zhong, who was standing aside, said: "Master, do you remember that when we first gave birth to Zhong Shen, the child suddenly had a fever, and it was not good, and then he still relied on the prescription in an ancient book to save Zhong Shen's life." ”
Mrs. Zhong's words reminded Zhong Dushan of what happened back then.
Later, they found an ancient book, and then according to the prescription on it to Zhong Shen to take medicine, one of the pages is also unclear, later, or thanks to a potion of the dealer, the handwriting on the book at that time was restored.
The scene at that time was really similar to the situation today.
"Madam, do you still have the potion of Dan?" Zhong Dushan hurriedly asked.
Mrs. Zhong smiled and said, "At this time, we will give full play to the careful characteristics of our women. After speaking, Mrs. Zhong led everyone to the Zhong family's warehouse.
Mrs. Zhong is really a careful person, and the bottle of potion back then is still well kept in the warehouse.
After a moment of scrambling, the potion had already spilled onto the book.
Next, all the eyes of the people looked intently at the illegible page of the book, waiting for a miracle to happen.
Gradually, little by little, the handwriting on the book revealed.
Who is the best person?
Murong Feng couldn't wait impatiently.
Then, the three words that appeared on the page surprised everyone.
Mewanli.
"Ah, it turned out to be Mei Wanli's senior. Zhong Dushan couldn't help but shout.
"It's good now," Zhong Shen was also very happy, "With our friendship with him, there will definitely be no problem with Brother Murong's affairs." ”
Murong Feng was also overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked Mrs. Zhong.
All of them were happy from the bottom of their hearts, after all, being able to help Murong Feng could be regarded as the Zhong family's compensation for him.
At this moment, Murong Feng seemed to remember something, and then hurriedly said, "By the way, I also want to thank the young grandmother of the Zhong family." ”
His words made the three people who were still happy just now suddenly change their faces.
"What, Brother Murong, have you seen your sister-in-law?" Zhong Shen asked tentatively.
"She found this book for me. Murong Feng said happily, not noticing everyone's reaction at all.
"So, is Wan'er another meritorious achievement?" Mrs. Zhong deliberately mentioned Wan'er's name, wanting to see if this Murong Feng really had amnesia.
Seeing Murong Feng's innocent face, Mrs. Zhong still believed it.
Later, a few people exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Murong Feng left.
It seems that he really forgot about his sister-in-law. Zhong Shen said, a little disappointed in his tone.
Mrs. Zhong glared at Zhong Shen, and said a little angrily: "Zhong Shen, don't forget, Zhong Jin is your eldest brother, and this Wan'er is now your sister-in-law, don't turn your elbow out." In my opinion, it is also a good thing that this Murong Feng forgot about Wan'er, saving unnecessary trouble. ”
After speaking, Mrs. Zhong seemed to be giving an order, and said, "Also, Zhong Shen, don't have anything to do with this Murong Feng in the future, and have time to take care of your daughter-in-law who doesn't know the depths." ”
After speaking, Mrs. Zhong left, leaving Zhong Shen and Zhong Dushan sighing helplessly.
However, the more helpless person is Zhong Jin.
Because Forsythia told him everything just now. There's even some oil and vinegar.
This forsythia has always been obsessed with the whole family's love for Wan'er, plus she is a famous lady, but she was suppressed by a girl from an ordinary family, and she just found this same opportunity, she must take revenge.
Therefore, when she saw Zhong Jin for the first time, she began to say with bad intentions: "Big brother, you really have a big heart." ”
Listening to Forsythia's inexplicable sentence, Zhong Jin was confused, but he always knew that Forsythia was not a fuel-efficient lamp, so he didn't pay too much attention to her.
Seeing that his words were not taken to heart by Zhong Jin, Forsythia was a little angry, but he still continued: "Big brother, who do you guess I saw in the study just now? It's sister-in-law, of course, there is a man. ”
Forsythia mentioned Wan'er, and Zhong Jin was immediately not calm.
Seeing Zhong Jin's eyes change, Forsythia continued: "Big brother, don't you want to know who that man is?"
"Who?"
"Hehe, he's the last person you want to see, but it's definitely the person your sister-in-law wants to see the most. "Forsythia has something to say.
"Who the hell is it, Forsythia, you don't want to sell it. Zhong Jin said almost pleadingly.
"Murong Feng," Forsythia said word by word.
Zhong Jin's face changed suddenly.
This name is like a talisman, swallowing up all the happiness that he has worked so hard to manage.
Seeing the painful expression on Zhong Jin's face, Forsythia seemed to have been cathartic. Then, adding insult to injury, he said, "Actually, I also ran into the two of them by accident. It's strange for you to say, what is this Murong Feng, how can he casually enter and exit the gate of the Zhong family, and still walk freely in his father's study, and the most important thing is that he has a private meeting with his old lover inside. ”
Forsythia's words were like thin needles piercing into Zhong Jin's already sensitive heart, he didn't allow Forsythia to slander the woman he loved the most, and then scolded loudly: "What a private meeting, pay attention to your words." ”
Seeing that Zhong Jin was a little angry, Forsythia was also very unconvinced, glared at Zhong Jin, and then said: "Why, it's a private meeting, otherwise, why did I find that both of them were blushing when I went in, I don't know what they did just now, and more importantly, when they saw me, my sister-in-law hurriedly left, and then Murong Feng also fled." If there wasn't something unsightly, why did the two of them dodge?"
No matter what, he had to protect Wan'er's reputation, so Zhong Jin glanced at Forsythia, and then said calmly: "Forsythia, there are some things, don't speculate if you don't know." When Murong Feng came to the Zhong family, I invited him to come, and he had a book to borrow, so I asked him to go to the study to find it by himself, and later I also asked Wan'er to go to the study to help him find the book together. Besides, Wan'er and Murong Feng have already been cut in two, and the two of them are now just senior sisters and brothers of the same family, so don't worry about it here. After speaking, Zhong Jin left without looking back.
Forsythia stopped talking, thinking to himself, this is just a lie made up by Zhong Jin to save his face, if it is really fine, why did he have an angry expression on his face just now.
Forsythia had a good idea, and everything Zhong Jin just said was, of course, made up by himself.
Because, apart from deceiving himself like this, Zhong Jin really couldn't find any other way.
Originally, Zhong Jin wanted to go back to the room directly, and then ask Wan'er a good question, but Zhong Jin knew that when Wan'er married him, he already knew such an ending, Wan'er didn't have herself in her heart at all, no matter how much time passed, no matter how much she paid in this relationship, in Wan'er's heart, she would never be as good as that Murong Feng.
Thinking of this, Zhong Jin felt a pain in his heart, and then, he stumbled out of the house and came to the bottom of the mountain.
It's so lively at the foot of the mountain, and there are markets everywhere, so maybe it's the only place full of life that makes people feel the meaning of life.
Zhong Jin walked alone, at this time, he suddenly saw the jewelry store that used to be, that is, in that jewelry store, Zhong Jin bought a bracelet for Wan'er, and later, this bracelet fulfilled the marriage of the two of them to a certain extent.
Zhong revisited the old place, feeling very lost, and then he walked into a winery.
"Little Er, give me ten jars of your best wine here. Like a frustrated and down-and-out person, Zhong Jin shouted.
"Okay. ”
After a while, ten jars of wine were put on the table.
"Guest officer, do you want some appetizers, we have a lot of them here, what peanuts, sauce beef,"
Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, Zhong Jin said to him: "Get out, I want to be quiet for a while." ”
The shopkeeper knew that this must be a rich son, arrogant and domineering, so he walked away with interest.
So, Zhong Jin opened a jar.
Sure enough, it is a good wine, and as soon as the lid is opened, the aroma of the wine is overflowing.
Zhong Jin was not in the mood to savor it at all, but drank it all.
Whether a wine is good or not, the key lies in its degree and strength, Zhong Jin ordered this kind of wine, not only the aroma is compelling, but also strong like a sharp knife. As Zhong Jin drank it, the wine fell into his intestines, as if it was not a liquid, but a sharp knife, which scratched Zhong Jin's throat and cut Zhong Jin's heart.
"Good wine. Zhong Jin shouted as if no one was around.
Then, Zhong Jin began to drink jar by jar, and when the shopkeeper saw such a scene, he wanted to go over and persuade him, but the lesson of being scolded just now was still in his ears, so he didn't dare to act rashly.
"Little Er, bring me ten more altars. It didn't take long for Zhong Jin to drink all the wine, and then shouted at the shopkeeper again.
The shopkeeper didn't dare to talk much, so he had to do it.
Zhong Jin was completely drunk, drinking and shouting, but no one knew what he was talking about.
The people who were still drinking in the room just now all left after seeing such a scene, worried that something would happen.
So, in the entire winery, only Zhong Jin and another person were left.
This person is none other than Zhang Heng.
That is, Zhang Yuanzhi's son, the one who wanted to marry Wan'er and Jie'er, but he didn't succeed, and even went to snatch Yan'er's Zhang Heng.
From the moment Zhong Jin walked into the winery, Zhang Heng recognized him at a sight.
Although the two don't know each other, Zhang Heng has also heard of the Zhong family's name, and knows the Zhong family's eldest son, Zhong Jin, and the most important thing is that he also knows that this Zhong Jin is married to Wan'er, whom he likes.
So, seeing Zhong Jin, who had been drinking with his head bored, an evil thought was swirling in Zhang Heng's mind, and he was ready to take revenge on this person.
So, instead of hurrying away like the others who were worried about getting into trouble, he sat in the corner and continued to drink, waiting, waiting for a bad breath.
Later, he saw that Zhong Jin was almost drunk and had fallen on the table, then he stood up, walked to the side of the shopkeeper, and said, "Xiaoer, this person is my friend, he is drunk." I'll pay for all the drinks, and then I'll take him away. ”
The shopkeeper didn't understand, since they were friends, why didn't they sit together just now and didn't stop him from drinking so unscrupulously.
Zhang Heng saw the doubts of the shopkeeper, and then said: "More things are better than less things, this truth, you people who do business should understand it more." After speaking, he put another bag of silver in front of the shopkeeper.
People who have been walking the rivers and lakes for many years know that this is the so-called hush money, of course, the shopkeeper also understands, so he doesn't say anything.
"Someone. Zhang Heng instructed: "Help this hero up." ”
Then, Zhang Heng's subordinates went to help Zhong Jin up. Zhong Jin was too drunk, and he didn't know anything about what was happening around him.
Then, under Zhang Heng's order, Zhong Jin was carried out of the tavern.
The shopkeeper was still a little curious, and then after these people left, he secretly looked through the crack in the door, only to see Zhong Jin being carried and walking to the "Drunken Flower Shade" across the street
This "drunken flower shade" is a famous brothel here.
