"Where have you been?" Lian Ji complained to Li Jiangyao who had just entered the door: "Why have you been gone for so long, making people worried to death."
Li Jiangyao raised the food and wine jar in his hand: "I'm going to buy some cooked food on the street to fill my stomach, and by the way, I'll feel the surrounding terrain."
Lian Ji stepped forward to take the food and wine, and said with a smile: "Is this the habit of soldiers? No matter where you go, you must first be familiar with the terrain. Officer, you have worked hard, come, sit down quickly, let me take care of you, give you a massage Fan."
Li Jiangyao was forced to sit down by her and started massaging without any explanation. Lian Ji was obviously very accomplished in this area. The strength of her Qianqian jade fingers was moderate, and the acupuncture points were found accurately. A set of gentle techniques, from the shoulders and neck to the lower back, made Li Jiangyao feel comfortable all over.
At the same time, Li Jiangyao secretly rejoiced in his heart. Fortunately, he had just rejected the kindness of Nilin Si Wang Hai and only accepted three blur beads and a wandering soul tube, hiding them in his front pocket. The other poison-quenching sleeve arrows, chain-rope flying claws, seven-section wishful whip, gathering troops to pierce the cloud arrows, and gold-threaded soft hedgehog armor were all not brought with me, otherwise I would be betrayed on the spot.
It can be seen that on the one hand, Lian Ji is still deliberately trying to please and seduce him, and on the other hand, she also has the idea of taking the opportunity to search him.
Li Jiangyao half-closed his eyes and muttered: "Well, comfortable, comfortable. I mean Lian Ji, Cheng Kaiyang enjoyed it this way back then, right?"
When Lian Ji heard what he said, she immediately pinched the inside of Li Jiangyao's thigh hard with her hands and pretended to be angry: "Bad guy, I'm calling you nonsense!"
"Ouch!" Li Jiangyao shouted in pain: "You crazy woman, why do you fall out so quickly?! You almost hurt my life!"
Lian Ji chuckled and said, "What does that matter? It's useless anyway, and the slave family has no use for it, so why not just scrap it."
Li Jiangyao rubbed his legs, stood up and hid far away: "It's so vicious! I don't need you to wait on me. Hurry up and eat."
Lian Ji took advantage and was in a good mood. She got up and took the cups and dishes from the kitchen, arranged the roast chicken and beef bought by Li Jiangyao neatly, poured two glasses of wine, and asked Li Jiangyao to come over and drink at the same table.
Neither of them are dull and boring people. One is free and unrestrained, and the other is full of charm. Facing a table of good wine and good food, they naturally talk, laugh, and eat lively.
When the wine was in full swing, Lian Ji suggested that she and Li Jiangyao have a drinking order.
Li Jiangyao waved his hands repeatedly: "Hey, you can't do it. There are only two of you and me, and it's not easy to execute orders. If you don't come, you won't come."
"Come on, come on," Lian Ji took Li Jiangyao's hand and said coquettishly, "Let's spend some time with the slave family."
Li Jiangyao couldn't defeat her, so he said helplessly: "There are no chips and wine chips here, how can we play?"
"It doesn't matter," Lian Ji said enthusiastically, "It's okay even if you don't have wine chips. I'm good at the Calendar Order, the Looking Order, the Chaoyun Order, the Gesture Order, the Word Splitting Order, the Silent Order, as well as the Urgent Command, the Four-Character Order, and the Yan command. Xiao Zi Ling, Ya Ling, beckoning command, pommel horse command, all can be played without drinking chips. If it doesn't work, reciting poems and couplets is also possible, how do you think you can do it?"
Li Jiangyao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I think it's better not to come! I don't know anything about what you just said."
Lian Ji said in disbelief: "How is it possible?! Don't you drink in the army?"
"Of course I know how to drink." Li Jiangyao said with a smile: "However, most of us soldiers are rough guys. We only drink for pleasure and rarely have fun. The few drinking games I know were taught to me by Commander He when he was still alive. Woolen cloth."
Lian Ji smiled like a flower: "So, you still know how to do it. Tell me, how do you play?"
Li Jiangyao thought for a while: "Hide the hook and shoot the cover. Can you do it?"
"You look down on people," Lian Ji said disdainfully: "What's so difficult about such a childish drinking order?" After that, she took off a pearl hair accessory from her head, spread it in her palm and handed it to Li Jiangyao: "Let's do it first. Hidden hook?"
The so-called "hiding hook" and "shooting over" were popular drinking orders at banquets at that time. They were much simpler than those mentioned by Lian Ji. No matter scholars or ordinary people, they would usually play around when drinking.
There was a poem that said: "Every seat will be warmed by gou spring wine, and the candle covered with wax will be lit by a red lamp." It refers to these two games.
"Hide the hook" is also called "give the hook". One party will hide a small object as a "hook" in his hand or outside his hand, and make it into a fist for the other party to guess. If he guesses wrong, he will be punished with a drink.
"Shefu" is usually played when there are many people, and the team is divided first, which is also called "dividing cao". Of course, even just two people can bet on the game. One party secretly covers the object under the container, and tells a riddle or makes some hints, allowing the other party to guess what is hidden inside, and rewards and punishments are determined based on right and wrong. And the word "shoot" means to guess or measure.
Looking at the pearl in Lian Ji's hand, Li Jiangyao smiled: "Okay, since you are so interested, come and go. Who will hide it first?"
Lian Ji put the hair ornament into Li Jiangyao's hand: "I'll let you guess three times first."
If you don't play it, you don't know. Li Jiangyao was immediately surprised when he got started.
As if with divine help, Lian Ji made three guesses in a row, winning every guess, which made Li Jiangyao confused.
When the two of them changed hands, the situation immediately reversed. Lian Ji's skillful tricks kept Li Jiangyao completely elusive. Every time, he failed to guess correctly, so he had no choice but to drink three large glasses of wine in a row.
"No, no," Li Jiangyao put down his glass and sighed: "Let's take a rest for now. If I keep drinking like this, I will have to be drunk by you. You must have done something secretly, otherwise how could you be so brave?"
Lian Ji chuckled and said, "It's obvious that you are not as good as others, but you wrongly accuse others of cheating. I'm really not ashamed."
Li Jiangyao pretended to be casual and joked: "What do you mean by deliberately getting me drunk? Do you want to take advantage of me while I'm drunk?"
"Bah!" Lian Ji raised her hand and patted Li Jiangyao, and scolded with a smile: "You're not a coward, are you so sweet? I still have to sleep with you? Stop talking nonsense, you can't play with me with a hidden hook, so I'll shoot you instead. also."
After that, she took a clean sea bowl, turned it upside down on the table, and asked, "Who will guess first this time?"
Li Jiangyao thought for a moment: "You hide it, I guess."
"We have agreed that three cups are the bet." Lian Ji said seriously: "If you guess right, I will drink three cups; if you guess wrong, you will drink three cups!"
Li Jiangyao couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Three drinks at a time? And you said you didn't want to get me drunk?"
"Okay, close your eyes quickly, I want to hide." Lian Ji urged, while Li Jiangyao closed his eyes, he secretly took something out of his arms and quickly stuffed it into the bottom of the bowl.
"Give me a riddle or a hint." Li Jiangyao was very interested.
Lian Ji pursed her lips and smiled: "You idiot, you didn't cheat and peek just now, did you?"
"How could it be?" Li Jiangyao said awkwardly when Lian Ji told her the central issue: "Don't judge a gentleman with a villain's heart, please tell me a reminder."
Lian Ji thought for a while and said softly: "There is Li in the Qiu, the son of Biliu."
Hearing this, Li Jiangyao couldn't help but feel moved in his heart.
"There is Li in the hills, the son of Biliu" comes from "The Book of Songs·Wang Feng". There are two sentences after the original poem: "There is Li in the hills, the son of Biliu. The son of Biliu makes me admire." It means: Mountain The hills are covered with plum trees, and the plum trees have kept my lover. Li Shu kept my lover and gave me a crystal jade pendant to express his love.
In fact, Li Jiangyao had secretly seen Lian Ji hiding a personal jade pendant in the bowl. At this time, she used this suggestive poem as a riddle, and the poem happened to contain the word "李", so the meaning she wanted to express was naturally very obvious.
I like you.
This is a bit embarrassing. If Li Jiangyao tells the correct answer, the hidden object is a personal jade pendant, which proves that he already understands the other person's intentions, and the relationship between men and women is quite ambiguous.
Li Jiangyao secretly smiled bitterly, thought for a while and said, "I am a rough man, how can I understand the poetry you are talking about? I can't guess it."
Lian Ji was greatly disappointed and rolled her eyes at him: "Can't you understand? Can't guess? Okay, then count you as the loser! Drink three large glasses of wine in a row!"
Li Jiangyao shook his head helplessly and reluctantly took the wine glass. Just when he was about to grit his teeth and accept the punishment, he suddenly looked outside with vigilance and shouted at the same time: "Who is it!"
Lian Ji thought he was cheating to avoid drinking, and just when she was about to laugh and scold him, she didn't expect that Li Jiangyao had already stood up and left the table, and flew out of the door. It was only then that Lian Ji suddenly realized that there was indeed someone on the eaves outside.
When she hurriedly ran out of the dormitory and came to the middle of the yard, Li Jiangyao was already fighting with someone on the roof of the left wing. Lian Ji looked closely and found that the person who was fighting fiercely with Li Jiangyao turned out to be a short and fat monk wearing a coarse cloth monk's robe.
Because they had fought side by side against the pursuers of the Long Sword Army before, Lian Ji had a certain understanding of Li Jiangyao's martial arts. Even if placed in the arena, Li Jiangyao can be regarded as one of the top masters. The leader of an ordinary sect or a slightly famous ranger may not be able to beat him.
But what people never expected was that the short and fat monk in front of him had extremely high kung fu. He danced with an exaggerated big shovel in his hand and was inextricably linked to Li Jiangyao.
Lian Ji cursed in a low voice: "Idiot, you still refuse to draw the sword. Is your brain broken?"
After that, she saw the opportunity, shook out a blue knife from her sleeve, and suddenly shot it at the fat monk who was fighting.
"Despicable!" A scolding voice sounded from the wall next to him. Immediately afterwards, a white figure moved across a distance of seven to eight feet like lightning. He just managed to get close before the poison-tempered flying knife hit the fat monk. , shooting it down instantly.
Lian Ji was immediately startled.
She was an assassin and had received extremely strict training since she was a child. Although her alertness and sensitivity were not as high as those of Li Jiangyao, she was not far behind. However, she had been in the yard for such a long time, and she was not aware of the man in white hiding on the wall!
Taking a closer look at the weapon used by the opponent to shoot down her flying knife, Lian Ji felt even more incredible.
It turned out to be a light, soft white ribbon!
