Chapter Eighty-Seven: Celebration Wine
Such a person sitting in the pavilion waited for a long time, and no one came, and he couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his heart.
It stands to reason that this mutual market is at the foot of Tianlu Peak, and it only takes a moment to pass the word, but the disciple has already had a meal, and there is still no news coming back, but he has been away from this place for several months, and he has never known what has happened recently, and he has not gone to his heart, but he is bored, he raises his spoon and eats slowly, listening to the noise in his ears, and thinking about some things. At this time, on the street outside Zizhen Building, three or four monks came together, hugging each other, the first two of them behaved gracefully, smiling and smiling, even if they entered the building, the sound was still very loud, and they didn't care about disturbing the diners around them, causing many resentful eyes, and after seeing the clothes on several people, they all lowered their heads.
"Senior Brother Peng, there are also places such as Zhenyu Mansion and Yuanxiang Pavilion in this mutual market, and the grade is much stronger than this Zizhen Building, why do you only like this place?" asked the person on the side.
This person was dressed in a pale blue robe, and his face was a little pale, as if he had been seriously ill, and it was that Xu Shi.
A few days ago, because of Zhang Qian's troubled heart, the patrol made the mansion provocative, the result was not inferior, angered the Qinghuai Daoist, was injured by a Yimu Canghuai Qi, even the ribs were broken a few, if it were not for this identity to provoke scruples, I am afraid that my life was confessed there that day, and it took two or three months to recuperate?
As for Zhang Qian, the initiator of the dispute, the role he played in it was not so important, after all, he only injured an insignificant Feng Ting, and there was no direct conflict with Xu Shi.
Of course, this Xu Shi also knows that this Qinghuai Taoist is by no means a good kind, not only the practice time is much longer than him, the Tao is far better than him, and he is not afraid of things, and the other party is also the position of the inspector, he can not retaliate against it with the help of the power of the master, he can only secretly make a trip, just with Bihaifeng under the true disciple Peng Xuan has some dealings, so he made a note, the two sides pretended to fight, and then led the Qinghuai Taoist people to come in to mediate, after all, it is his duty, wise and deceitful, but also had to jump into it, and finally Bihaifeng provoked the incident, biting this Qinghuai Taoist when dealing with the contradiction is unfair, making both sides unhappy, affecting the overall situation。
In the end, the matter was in a uproar, and even Tianquan Feng intervened, and the reputation of Qinghuai Dao people was lost, and their authority was almost shaken.
Now he is in Tianlu Peak, in front of the two ruling elders of Tianquan Peak, pleading this matter.
As for the result, it has to be created by oneself, and because of this, the disciple in the building has never seen the main master when he went to spread the word, and he is still waiting in his dojo.
And Xu Shi and that Peng Xuan's plan succeeded, and now they should celebrate, so they came to eat and drink, but they don't know why Peng Xuan likes this Zizhen Building, he has worked in the mutual market for nearly ten years, and naturally knows that the owner of this Zizhen Building and the Qinghuai Daoist are the same senior brothers, both of whom were disciples of Shenmu Peak at the beginning, and later came to the bottom of the ten-year competition and were banned, which is now Xuemu Peak, of course, this is all old things, but he knows that the owner of this Zizhen Building has a good relationship with this Qinghuai Daoist, so he has no good impression of this Zizhen Building, not that he is afraid in his heart, although this Zizhen Taoist is still above the Qinghuai Daoist, but he is not good at defeating the enemy。
Even if he is not an enemy, but in the mutual market, he relies on the benefits of his authority, and he is not afraid of his unemployed and powerless casual cultivation at all, and he does not even take it into his eyes, it is just simply uncomfortable.
"But you don't know that this Zizhen Building has recently launched a new kind of wine, called Baiguo Jiajiu, although the name is cheesy, but the taste is simply wonderful, and you can't drink it anywhere else. Peng Xuan smiled and leaned on the railing to go upstairs.
"I've heard of it. Xu Shi nodded, he is not a drinker, but this Baiguo wine has been in the limelight in recent months, and he has heard of it. The flow of passengers is like a tide, even a big man in the Tianquan Peak has drunk this wine and praised endlessly, and his beloved disciple inscribed a poem, which is now engraved on the Nanmu pillar in front of the door, and he accidentally saw it when he stepped into the building before, and the words were magnificent, free and uninhibited, it was simply unforgettable, "the grand plan hegemony is talking and laughing, and it is better than a drunk in the world." ”
At this time, this Zizhen building is already overcrowded, Peng Xuan has been here twice, and he is familiar with the road and went straight upstairs, and the disciples in the building hurriedly stopped him, and said with a smile: "This senior brother, I'm really sorry, the private rooms upstairs are all full, can you sit in the lobby downstairs?" These words are half-true, at this time the upstairs is indeed full, but it is not a vacant seat, like this occasion, no matter how tight the business is, it is inevitable to leave one or two free flower halls, used to receive distinguished guests, usually not used, so little known, but can not hide from Xu Shi, after all, in this mutual market for a long time, at this time to listen to this disciple, then said: "Let's go up to the fifth floor!"
The disciple's face was even more embarrassed, there were two empty flower halls on the fifth floor no matter what happened, but one was occupied by Zhang Qian when he came before, and now there was only one left, and he didn't dare to use it at will.
Now Zizhenlou's business is very good, and even the big man of Tianquan Peak has come here, if he encounters such a thing again, and let people occupy this last flower hall, it will be a big disaster.
"The flower hall on the fifth floor only receives the main ...... of the peaks," the disciple said embarrassedly, a little weak-hearted.
Because not long ago, he led a person in, whether it is status or strength realm, it can't be compared with these two people, but it's a different matter.
If there is no such person, there is no Zizhen Building today, how dare you slack off, and you will naturally be a guest.
"Dogs look down on people!" "Before he finished speaking, this Xu Shi was already angry, originally he didn't have much good impression of this Zizhenlou, and now he was even more annoyed and angry by such a rejection, not to mention that he himself is a person with a face in this mutual market, and this Peng Xuan next to him is not an idle person, although he is not as noble as the lord of a peak, but he is not even qualified to sit down, and reprimanded: "If you don't put me in your eyes, do you know who this person is next to me?" You prick up your ears and listen, this Senior Brother Peng Xuan Peng is the concubine of the Sea Toad, the peak master of Bihai Peak, and his status is noble, and he is not as good as a small peak master?
When the disciple heard this, he couldn't help but lean back slightly and look carefully, but saw that the man was silent, and his bearing was majestic, which was indeed not like bluffing.
In this way, it is really not good to be lazy, hurriedly apologize, greet, and introduce into the idle flower hall, but a moment of all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, spirit birds and beasts are sent, which eases the previous tense atmosphere.
Separated by a wall, Zhang Qian sat quietly at the table, interested, and heard a faint noise, frowning slightly.
There are prohibitions between these flower halls, but they are only slightly soundproofed, and it is impossible to lock the entire space, otherwise it will be counterproductive, making people feel as if they are in someone else's cage when they enter it.
He listened to the noise, there was a faint trace of the voice quite familiar, but this fifth floor is the place where Zizhen Lou receives distinguished guests, and it is not convenient for him to use his divine sense to snoop rashly, not because he is timid and afraid, but he does not want to cause trouble to Zizhen Lou, and then the voice gradually lowered, he was too lazy to entangle in his heart, and then felt that the wine in the cup was tasteless, so he took out a gourd monkey wine from the dust cave sky, poured himself a drink, passed the time, and waited for the disciple to return.
In the flower hall next door, the already relaxed atmosphere became tense again as Peng Xuan asked, "Why don't you go to Baiguo Wine, but entertain me with such a vulgar thing?"
"Peng Gongzi forgive me, today's reserved share has been sold out, and now there is not a drop left in the back kitchen, there is some stock in the wine cellar, but the master has something to do today, he is not in the building, and the wine cellar is forbidden only he can open. A disciple at the table bowed his head and explained, for fear of upsetting the two of them, but Xu Shi was in a bad mood, how could he easily buy it, just as before, he was squeezing himself with words, and said in a weird manner: "I heard that you Zizhenlou has a rule, this Baiguo wine only sells ten catties a day, could it be because of this? If so, I can't understand it, how can there be a door to do business, how can there be a person who does not meet the needs of the guests? ”
The disciple smiled and replied: "There is indeed this rule, after all, there is not much stock in my Zizhen Building, if it is sold out in a few days, this business will not be able to do long-term, but this rule is only for the four floors downstairs, like the two of them, those who can go up to the fifth floor are all VIPs, how dare you slack off, even if you really want to divide the noble and the low, you two are also nobles." This disciple was much more able to speak than the one who led the way before, and his words were extremely listening, and there was a hint of embarrassment behind him, which was just right, and said: "It's just that there is really something unfortunate today, the wine really can't be taken out in the wine cellar, if you have patience, you might as well wait for a while, and let my master come back." ”
After speaking, he confessed a few more words.
The words have come to this, and it seems unkind to be entangled again, Peng Xuan only said that he was unlucky.
At this time, the tip of his nose twitched slightly, but he smelled a trace of smell, its fragrance was like an empty valley orchid, penetrating the heart and spleen, and with the sweetness of wild fruits and the mellowness of medicinal materials, it was the hundred fruit wine he had drunk before, he Peng Xuan was a person who loved wine, how could he not tell it, first indulged in it, and then suddenly came back to his senses, seemed to understand something, his face became a little unhappy, but he laughed: " I was really unlucky for me before, but now I know that it was your Zizhen Building's big rules and impersonal feelings, and I was told before that the wine could not be taken out in the cellar, how could it be that in the blink of an eye, the distinguished guest in the next hall had wine to drink?"
