The rivers and lakes ask the heart but not the way
Chapter 12, Getting Drunk
Three months later, Jingzhou, Canghai Inn.
There are still three days until Liqiu.
The Seventeenth Young Master checked the grass at the entrance of the inn vigilantly, and entered the inn after making sure that he was safe. He had already driven for a day and was very tired.
Before that, he had stayed in Zhuge Village for a whole summer, half of it was for the book of Qimen gossip, and half of it was to avoid the sixth child.Now that the beginning of autumn is approaching, he has to go.
Before setting off from Zhuge Village, he looked at the letter in his arms for the 780th time, thought hard, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration and decided to go south to Dongting.
Every year in the beginning of autumn, for the Seventeenth Young Master, it is a tribulation. If you pass it, you can live for another year. If you don't pass it, you will die of poison.This was when he was at his weakest. Although he had taken the "Xu Ming Pill" in Lichun this year, his life was safe for the time being, but when the corpse worms broke out, life was still worse than death.He must find a safe place where no one will be disturbed before the beginning of autumn, and survive alone.
When he is lucky, he can find a wooden house left by hunters in the mountains, sometimes even hung with dried dried meat and a few bottles of honey; usually it is a deserted temple in the suburbs, the candlesticks are covered with dust, hanging Cobwebs, with holes in the roof, you can watch the stars on clear nights, but the rain keeps leaking on rainy nights; there are also a few times, when you really have no other choice, you just snatch a beast cave, and you sleep cold and chilly, and the smell is bad. The smell of beasts, the smell of urine at the entrance of the cave, the smell of rotting deer bones...
After leaving the inn tomorrow, he planned to find a safe place in the suburbs, and continue southward after the beginning of autumn.
After Seventeenth Young Master entered the store, he chose a corner table and sat down. The proprietress was dialing the abacus with her red nails painted with impatiens, she raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, her expression changed.Just as the waiter was about to come over to say hello, the proprietress gave him a wink, and Xiaoer turned around to say hello to others knowingly.The proprietress walked over coquettishly, and asked in person: "Guest officer, what do you want?" Her voice was thick and silky.
Seventeen has seen some of these women.They are shrewd and sophisticated, bold and unrestrained, cooking three rivers in a copper pot.Their men are generally not around, and some have no men at all. If they see a customer they see, they will take the initiative to flirt, and the wisher will take the bait.Don't be shy before the event, and don't get entangled afterwards.But if you want to reduce your drink bill because of this, don't think about it. Although they won't ask you for bed warming fees, they will never give you food and drink for free, and every penny is calculated clearly.Love is love, money is money, happiness is happiness, and business is business.This is exactly what Seventeenth Young Master likes or admires about them.
Since walking with Wu Shuangzi, the number of love affairs of Seventeenth Young Master has decreased significantly, because the two of them follow each other like shadows, and anyone who has eyesight knows that they can't intervene.Although the number is reduced, it does not mean that there is no one. After all, the two are young and handsome, so it is inevitable that they will attract bees and butterflies.Seventeenth Young Master always thinks that he is the more handsome one, so he thinks it is normal for girls to tease him, but if he teases Wu Shuangzi, he will be very upset.What's annoying is that Wu Shuangzi is very good at self-cultivation. No matter how excessive the girls are, he will not get angry.At this time, the Seventeenth Young Master will always have a subtle jealousy in his heart, making him do everything possible to draw the girls' attention to himself, such as the time at the Tenderness Pavilion, if Yulu hadn't sat on Wu Shuangzi's lap , he will not force kiss her.
The proprietress leaned lightly on Shiqi Shao's arm with her small waist, and asked, "Would you like a pot of wine?"
"I don't know which wine is better?" Seventeenth Young Master moved his arms subtly, as if avoiding her, but also catering to her.
"You can try it first." The proprietress cast a wink with a pun, turned around and went to the counter to pour five small cups of different wines, and brought them in front of Wu Shuangzi.
Just as Wu Shuangzi was about to pick up a cup to taste, the proprietress said, "Wait a minute."
I saw the red nail of Impatiens, took out a chopstick from the bamboo tube on the table, put it into the wine cup, tapped it, and handed it to Wu Shuangzi's lips.
A smile floated on Wu Shuangzi's lips, he raised his head, his eyes fell on the proprietress, he stuck out his tongue, pressed against the bottom of the chopsticks, licked slowly and vigorously, and rolled the drop of fine wine into his lips and tongue.He raised his eyebrows and said casually: "Come to the three altars."
For him, all wines are the same.Even if he tastes a thousand kinds of wine, he will not taste the taste of "three bowls are not enough".If you can't drink your favorite wine, then it doesn't matter what you drink, it's just getting drunk, why take it seriously.
Seventeen young masters passed out on the table after drinking two altars.After an unknown period of time, the number of customers in the store gradually increased, and the voices at one table woke him up.With drunken eyes, the Seventeenth Young Master thought that it was already night, or the next day, but the residual temperature of the jug told him that at most an hour had passed.In the past, he always felt that the days passed too quickly and fleetingly, but now he has a torment that feels like years.
"You girl! I told you not to follow, but to follow, getting in the way and causing the Emei faction to miss the final battle!"
"Mom! It's not my fault, who knows that the hidden weapons of the Demon Cult are so insidious, and I can't walk fast because I hurt my leg..."
"Yes, yes, master, please don't blame junior sister, the Emei faction has done a great service by killing the elder of the Demon Sect!"
The Seventeenth Young Master recognized Tie Guanzi's voice, squinted his eyes and saw that Tie Guanzi was sitting at the same table with a teacher and a beautiful girl two or three tables away from him.Judging by the sword and demeanor of this teacher, it is estimated that she is the head of the Emei School.
In a blink of an eye, he caught a glimpse of a red tasseled jasper hanging on the girl's sword, which looked very familiar.He immediately remembered that the jade tassel that Wu Shuangzi paid for the wine was a pair with the one she hung.
He lay down on the table without showing any expression, buried his face, and continued to pretend to be asleep.
"How's the leg? Does it still hurt?" The teacher's tone softened.
Gong Yunshang shook her head: "It doesn't hurt anymore, it's almost healed, Master Miaozang's wound medicine is really effective."
"I don't know how the battle at Yongshou Peak is going." The teacher asked worriedly.
The Dharma King is retreating at Yongshou Peak, and Master Miaozang leads all the heroes to encircle and suppress. If the Soul Chasing Dafa has not reached the ninth level, there is no suspense about the outcome, but in case... it is hard to say.
Tie Guanzi replied: "Master, don't worry, I just received the carrier pigeons in front of me this morning. The four sub-rudders at the foot of the Devil's Sect Mountain have all been wiped out. During the chaotic battle, the guardians on the right plotted against Master Miaozang, and were killed by the quick sword of the elder brother." block."
"Is brother Quan injured?" Gong Yunshang asked eagerly.
Seventeenth Young Master pricked up his ears.
"Eldest brother is fine, but it's a pity that elders Fu and Mo of the Beggar Gang died in battle, Master Shaolin Miaoxuan was seriously injured, and none of the remnants of the Demon Cult survived." The letter said that the battle was dark and bloody. "Now that everyone has surrounded Yongshou Peak, forgive the devil for not being able to fly with wings!"
Hearing that Wu Shuangzi was fine, the Seventeenth Young Master felt a little relieved, but when he heard that the Demon Cult was wiped out, he had mixed feelings.I hated the Devil's Cult to the core, and I should have felt happy, but in my heart, I felt relieved.Famous and upright sects held the banner of doing justice for the heavens, but in fact they were ten times as numerous. They took advantage of the danger when the Fawang went mad.It is true that the Demon Sect has evildoers, but there are also righteous and evil ones, not to mention some low-level disciples who are only responsible for cleaning chores, and some have not even learned martial arts, so they are killed together, and many are innocent .People who do evil are certainly unforgivable, but when punishing evil, justice often becomes too much to vent anger. In the end, no one can tell clearly what is right and what is wrong.
Furthermore, if the King of Dharma dies, without the "life extension pill", he can only live for another year at most.So the Seventeenth Young Master wished for the death of the King, but also did not want the death of the King, and his mood was very conflicted.Of course, there is still a turning point for things. If you can really find the belongings of "that person", maybe...
"Is that little lady pretty?" A male-female voice asked.
"It looks good." A voice that looks like a woman and a man replied.
"Hmph, look at digging out your eyes again!" The former's words contained cold threats and strong jealousy.
As soon as the Seventeenth Young Master heard it, he knew that he had encountered the "two monsters who are not immortals" again.
There are still three days until Liqiu.
The Seventeenth Young Master checked the grass at the entrance of the inn vigilantly, and entered the inn after making sure that he was safe. He had already driven for a day and was very tired.
