The rich and mellow aroma seems to explode directly on the taste buds.
Chu Xiu's originally pale face suddenly turned rosy.
"This wine..." Chu Xiu's eyes lit up.
"How is it?" Meng Xiaochuan looked at Chu Xiu helplessly.
"Excellent wine." Chu Xiu commented.
"This wine has a lot of stamina." Xia Qingshan couldn't help but remind him, "My drinking capacity is pretty good, but after one small glass, I usually get drunk for a whole day and a night."
"Hehe, my drinking capacity is probably bigger than that of the Xia Family Master." Meng Xiaochuan chuckled, disapproving in his heart. He had drank a lot of fine wine, and no matter how strong the fine wine was, he had never gotten drunk after just one glass.
"Haha~, really?" Xia Qingshan laughed and stopped trying to persuade him.
Chu Xiu glanced at the table full of delicacies, thought for a while, and did not continue to drink the Wangyou wine. Instead, he picked up his chopsticks and tasted the delicacies first.
Meng Tiangang poured himself a glass of Wangyou wine with a smile and slowly tasted it.
He had heard of the legend of Wangyou Wine and believed what Xia Qingshan just said.
This is an excellent wine that has endless aftertaste and can make people forget their worries.
Since it is a fine wine, you should savor it slowly.
Meng Xiaochuan first took a sip, feeling the ultimate pleasure on his taste buds, and his eyes lit up.
After one cup, I felt as if I had drank the jade liquid from the Heavenly Palace.
"Bang."
Meng Xiaochuan lay on his back with a happy smile on his face.
There was a sudden silence in the pavilion.
"Don't worry, he is drunk." Xia Qingshan said helplessly, "The stamina of 300-year-old Wangyou wine is not something that ordinary people can withstand."
"This kid's drinking capacity needs to be tempered." Meng Tiangang shook his head and continued to taste Wangyou wine.
Chu Xiu picked up the wine glass and took another sip. His taste buds seemed to be blooming. The ultimate mellow taste was irresistible.
Xia Qingshan stood up and helped Meng Xiaochuan up, taking him to the bamboo house next door to rest.
Next door to this bamboo house.
Jiang Rou and Xia Chuxue, mother and daughter, ate alone.
"Why is it like this again?" Xia Chuxue was speechless. They had no share in catching red clams, and now they had to eat alone.
"Senior Meng is having a banquet, and we two women are not suitable to attend." Jiang Rou chuckled.
"What's wrong with the women? Every time uncle comes, don't we all eat together?" Xia Chuxue said dissatisfied.
"Can that be the same?" Jiang Rou said with a smile, "Your uncle watched you grow up. Who does Senior Meng know you?"
"..."
Xia Chuxue snorted softly, knowing that she and her mother were not suitable to dine at the same table with a senior they had just met. However, she was very depressed because of her status as a woman and being unable to participate in some things several times in a row.
Under night, outside the medicinal forest.
After Duanmu Yaoyao and Tang Jiabao left in defeat, a tall figure walked towards them.
Wearing a black outfit, he has a tall figure and thick eyebrows and big eyes.
His resolute face showed a sense of wind and frost.
Behind him was a spear as black as ink.
"Zuo Qianhu?"
Seeing this figure, Duanmu Yaoyao and Tang Jiabao were both startled.
Chong left, Long Yuan defended Qianhu.
From Chang'an City.
"Two gentlemen." Zuo Chong looked at Duanmu Yaoyao and Tang Jiabao and chuckled, "I wonder if I can do you a small favor."
"Tell me about it." Tang Jiabao was curious.
Duanmu Yaoyao also looked at Zuo Chong.
Both of them knew the famous Zuo Qianhu.
To be precise, almost everyone in Chang'an City knew Zuo Qianhu.
Five years ago, this Zuo Qianhu defeated a legitimate prince with one shot, and later got engaged to the woman that the legitimate prince liked.
Therefore, in recent years, the tasks performed by Zuo Qianhu have been extremely dangerous.
The achievements he has made should have reached success long ago.
But now there are still only a thousand households.
"Bizhi came to Lingzhou this time to hunt down the Yanshan thief Xiao Yunhe." Zuo Chong said, "He has been around Lingshan County recently. I suspect that he is here for the red clam in the Xia family medicine forest." Come."
"Xiao Yunhe? Zhu Ha?" Duanmu Yaoyao and Tang Jiabao were both startled.
Xiao Yunhe, nicknamed the Yanshan Bandit, is ranked thirteenth on the bandit list. He is proficient in light kung fu and poisoning, and has unparalleled stealing skills. He has committed major crimes in many prefectures in Daqian.
"You also know that there are red clams in the Xia Family Medicine Forest?" Duanmu Yaoyao raised her eyebrows slightly.
Zuo Chong smiled and said: "Long Yuan Wei's information network is naturally inferior to that of Suzaku Academy; however, Long Yuan Wei can still grasp some things that happen in various states."
"Then do you know Chu Xiu?" Duanmu Yaoyao asked.
"Chu Xiu..." Zuo Chong muttered, "I only know that he is the disciple of the master wine Taoist of Yuding Temple in Shuzhou, and he went to Lingshan Temple yesterday."
Then he added, "The wine Taoist and Jiang Rou, the head wife of the Xia Mansion, are brothers and sisters."
Duanmu Yaoyao was a little disappointed, and she knew this as soon as she checked the news.
"Zuo Qianhu, what do you want us to help you with?" Tang Jiabao asked curiously.
Zuo Chong's face straightened slightly and he said: "Xiao Yunhe is good at using poison. Once a person in a low-level position comes within three feet of him, he will be in a trance for a moment and his whereabouts will be exposed."
Duanmu Yaoyao and Tang Jiabao looked at each other.
Tang Jiabao pondered: "It should be datura incense, which has hallucinogenic toxicity;
Zuo Qianhu's subordinates should all be cultivators. Once they inhale this poisonous fragrance, they will be in a daze for a moment, and the true energy in their bodies will automatically circulate, and their whereabouts will be exposed. "
"Is there an antidote?" Zuo Chonglian asked.
Tang Jiabao smiled calmly, and just as he was about to say something, he heard the seventh senior sister Duanmu Yaoyao next to him speak.
"We will go there with you." Duanmu Yaoyao said with a faint smile, "With the two of us here, no matter what poison he has, it will not have any effect."
Tang Jiabao's heart moved, knowing that this seventh senior sister was still unwilling to leave.
Zuo Chong's eyes lit up and he said quickly: "With these two gentlemen following us, this humble mission will definitely be completed successfully."
Tang Jiabao couldn't help but complain: "Everyone in Chang'an City knows that they are deliberately targeting you, why can't you resist?"
Zuo Chong chuckled and said: "Mr. Twelve, you are overthinking it. The Shangguan entrusts the humble post with important tasks because he trusts the humble post. The humble post should go all out and not give up even if it means death."
Tang Jiabao is the twelfth disciple recruited by Zhuque Academy. Most people in Chang'an City call him "Mr. Twelve".
"..."
Tang Jiabao was speechless.
You just have 'I want to kill you and take over your fiancée' written on your face, but you're still 'willing to die'?
"Junior brother Tang, Zuo Qianhu is a true hero, so don't use your thoughts to speculate." Duanmu Yaoyao glanced at Tang Jiabao.
"Mr. Seven, that's ridiculous." Zuo Chong grinned.
Tang Jiabao shrugged and said nothing more.
Although he thought Zuo Qianhu was a bit stupid, Zuo Qianhu had always been upright and aboveboard in his actions and hated evil as much as he hated evil. He indeed deserved the name of a 'true hero'.
…
Medicine forest, bamboo house.
Meng Tiangang was full of praise for Wangyou Wine. He drank it in small sips at first, and soon he drank one cup after another.
After finishing the whole pot of Wangyou wine, he still had some unfinished thoughts and his whole face had turned rosy.
"This wine is really good." Meng Tiangang laughed, jumped up and broke through the roof of the bamboo house.
Dust, mud, tiles and other objects were scattered on the roof, and the entire banquet table suddenly became a mess.
Chu Xiu immediately protected the glass of Wangyou wine in front of him and took a few steps back to avoid Chenni.
"Hahaha……"
"How many times in your life do you get drunk?"
"I, Meng Tiangang, traveled thousands of miles to visit Lingshan..."
"Ipunch old man, why don't you come out and fight!"
High-pitched and heroic laughter came from afar.
Xia Qingshan and Chu Xiu, who were drinking with them, looked at each other.
"Senior Meng, what is this?"
Xia Qingshan's eyelids twitched, and he rushed out of the bamboo house immediately. He raised his eyes and looked around. Where could he find Meng Tiangang?
Chu Xiu picked up the wine jar storing the red clams in one hand and the glass of Wangyou wine in the other, and walked out of the bamboo house.
Jiang Rou, Xia Chuxue and her daughter from the bamboo house next door also came to the courtyard immediately.
