Maybe that’s not the issue on my mind...
My face was uncertain, and when I looked at Liu Ruxiang, I always felt as if I wouldn't be able to see her again soon.
"Good wine." The sixth uncle held the wine bottle with a drunken smile on his face.
The fourth uncle looked at the red porcelain bottle, couldn't help but show distress on his face, and snatched the bottle over.
"You bastard, how much have you drank? This pound of wine is almost gone."
The fourth uncle shook the wine bottle and poured it into the cup. Hey, there really wasn't much, only one cup was poured out.
At this time, the old drunkard no longer suppressed his alcohol addiction, and started drinking.
When the two of them were drunk, the fourth uncle actually pushed the wine glass into my arms.
"Wen Shan, let me ask you, go to the Chen family in Shuanghu Town immediately. Can you earn some face for our old Liu family and vent your anger?"
The strong aroma of wine immediately hit my face, and someone like me who wasn't used to it couldn't stand it, so I quickly waved my hand.
When the fourth uncle saw me waving my hand, he immediately blew his beard and glared: "Okay, kid, you wave your hand, do you want to back down? Do you dare?"
"Oh, absolutely not, no." I shook my head quickly.
"Since you agreed and can do it, then drink my glass of wine!"
The fourth uncle slammed the half-cup of wine on the table, and a lot of the wine spilled out. The sixth uncle felt distressed when he saw it, and he wanted to lie down on the table and lick it off.
I was stunned. This was the last time in my life that I took a sip of white wine when I cheated someone. I have never drunk anything else. I was a little stunned when these four uncles were so excited. He turned to look at Liu Ruxiang, looking at her with a look asking for help.
Liu Ruxiang had a slight smile on her face: "Let's do it then, it's just a sip of wine. At the wine table, I remember that you are very powerful."
I feel like crying but don’t have any tears in my heart. Master, you can’t leave me at the wine table. That’s not just to see if your little hands are quick at pinching magic spells. Without the five ghosts to carry the book, I’m afraid it will fall down in one bite!
The two uncles obviously still didn't know that I had cheated on pornographic people. When Liu Ruxiang said that I was a good drinker, they looked at me in surprise.
"Boy Wenshan, it turns out you are hiding your clumsiness, then don't back down and do it!"
I have always been blessed and dare not say goodbye. After drinking this glass of West Wind Wine, my throat seemed to be moistened by a cold liquid, and I immediately felt warm and hot in my stomach.
"Haha, okay, quite heroic!"
I didn't pay attention to the fourth uncle's teasing, and quickly swallowed two mouthfuls of food. Slowly dilute the smell of the wine, and then you can feel the strength of the wine. Even with this sip of wine, Jiu felt a little dizzy.
This meal was enjoyed by everyone, especially the sixth uncle. After finishing the bottle of wine, his face turned red and he went home to sleep while humming a little tune.
The fourth uncle here said hello to the old lady at home, and then started to greet the driver, Uncle Peng, and asked him to drive a group of us to the next county to find the Chen family in Shuanghu Town.
On the road here, I slept until I got off the car. It was not until the car finally ran out of road that we got down and walked to a house in front of us.
"That is the current address of the Chen family in Shuanghu Town." The fourth uncle pointed at it.
From a distance, you can see a small tile-roofed house with three rooms and an earthen wall. There are even some saplings planted in the yard. A tall peach tree is particularly conspicuous. The trunk of the tree is probably as big as a woman's waist. So thick.
Maybe someone in the courtyard heard the noise, and immediately several people came out of the door and walked quickly over to open the courtyard door for us.
The fourth uncle certainly came here empty-handed. In addition to the compass that his ancestors asked him to give as a gift, he also just bought some fruits from the town and two big, lively roosters.
After taking them all out, an old man inside immediately ran over and opened the door with a smile.
"Oh, all the great masters of the Liu family, you are all here. Welcome, I have been waiting for you to come. It is so glorious."
The Fourth Master smiled and said, "That's not enough. We brought some people here because we have something to do with you. It's not a hundred years ago, and we're not here to give you exercises."
The old man standing in the door had a look of embarrassment on his face. Come to think of it, he also had the grudge between the ancestors of the two families a hundred years ago: "That's natural. Now even if you give it away, we don't dare to take it."
"Come, invite some distinguished guests, Shitou, hurry up and make some cups of hot tea."
"How many drinks are there?" A young man's voice came from inside the room.
The fourth uncle squinted his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Four cups."
"What kind of tea?"
"My treasured Qi Hong."
Seeing that the Chen family was quite enthusiastic, the fourth uncle pushed me out: "Come, let me introduce you. The person next to Liu Ruxiang is her disciple, named Liu Wenshan, and he is very talented. "
"This is Chen Yulin, the head of the Chen family. Just call him Uncle Chen." The fourth uncle patted my head gently.
I knew what he meant and quickly shouted: "Hello, Uncle Chen."
After some pleasantries, we were all invited to sit in the room.
After a while, a young man walked out. As Liu Ruxiang said, he was also wearing a robe for following the robe. He held two glasses of water and handed them to my fourth uncle and master first.
But this piece of packaging caught my eye. I glanced at it and muttered in my heart: "It's really pretending. It's not illegal. Why are you wearing this for practice?"
"May I ask the ancestors of the Liu family, how has your health been in recent years?" asked the old man of the Chen family.
"Of course it means health and longevity. This time, the old man of our Liu family paid enough attention to this trip and brought you a good treasure to the Chen family of Shuanghu Town." The fourth uncle said as he took it out from the backpack behind him. A wooden box slowly appeared in front of the Chen family after opening it.
The man from the Chen family almost widened his eyes: "This, this is the Golden Needle Compass!"
The compass is a very common magical weapon and auxiliary tool in the entire field of metaphysics. Even the Master Master will use it. It is especially useful when observing some famous terrains and mountains and rivers.
The most intuitive feeling for me was when Huang Weizhong took action before. We went to deal with the Jingguan where many dead soldiers were buried. If Huang Weizhong hadn't destroyed the topography of that place with fire at that time, I'm afraid we would have to think normally in the future. The method requires a lot of effort.
"The Golden Needle Compass was made by the Luban lineage of the Qi Sect. Now that Luban's art is almost lost, the number of Golden Needle Compasses in existence is getting smaller and smaller. This thing is amazing. If what I said is right, this Putting the stuff on the Xuanmen Market in the provincial capital would be enough for many Feng Shui masters to steal, and I'm afraid it would be worth a hundred thousand!" The head of the Chen family had an ecstatic look on his face.
"Haha, Brother Chen, don't be too happy too early." The fourth uncle laughed.
Chen Yulin realized that he was a little reckless. After all, there is no such thing as pie in the sky. How could the Liu family give away such a treasure for no reason?
He sighed, clutched the golden needle compass in his hand, and kept playing with it, very reluctantly.
"Tell me what's going on."
When the fourth uncle saw Chen Yulin being so obsessed with him, he felt a big stone fall in his heart. Since this fish likes bait, isn’t it a matter of time when it can be caught?
The fourth uncle was also unambiguous and honestly described what happened yesterday.
"What, the Nanyang head-lowering technique?" Chen Yulin asked.
According to the countermeasures we discussed on the way here, it was Liu Ruxiang's turn to talk to me.
"We have seen with our own eyes that it is shaped like a shriveled human head. Once it sucks human blood, it will immediately turn into a human head the size of a rubber ball, and then it will be suspended in mid-air, constantly falling to attack and bite."
"I have used many methods, including master's whips and talismans, but they have basically no effect. The fire energy of swallowing charcoal and swallowing iron swords can still cause some damage." Liu Ruxiang said calmly.
I recalled the thrilling scene last night.
I said a lot in one breath, and I seemed to experience the immersive feeling again. I couldn't help but break out in cold sweat all over my back.
This time it was Chen Yulin's turn to keep a straight face.
"Since then, I'm afraid this is the only way to restrain him, but it's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. The magic left by a passing Taoist priest has been lost here." Chen Yulin looked embarrassed.
After all, this is also a thing of his own family. This descendant has lost the inheritance of his ancestors, and his face turns red and white.
"Humph, what are you doing for food? Your Chen family only has so much ability. Can't you remember the magic method? What should I do if I lose this thing? If I had known earlier, I should have given it to our Liu family for safekeeping!"
There was a trace of bitterness on the face of the old man Chen Yulin: "Who could have imagined that we would encounter that era when everything was gone? It's not like you don't know that our Chen family in Shuanghu Town suffered a catastrophe back then. Who could have imagined that the world would be unpredictable? , a strange combination of circumstances..."
Chen Yulin gradually stopped talking.
Liu Ruxiang also sighed. It seemed that this trip was probably in vain.
"Okay, since it's lost, what are we still doing here? It's no longer interesting. I'll also take away this golden needle compass. Our ancestors said that it was reserved specifically to exchange for your family's Dharma. Today I think it’s better to forget it, I have no chance with you.” The fourth uncle was dejected, put the golden needle compass into his bag, and greeted the few of us to go out.
Chen Yulin was anxious at this time.
"Here, you guys, don't leave!"
"If such a magic weapon can be kept, our Chen family is willing to pay a huge sum of 50,000 yuan to buy it!"
The fourth uncle shook his head: "You can't exchange it for a thousand pieces of gold. I can only give it to you if I take out the method. Otherwise, there is no way!"
