Under the leadership of the waiter, Lu Yuan came to the private room where they were drinking.
There was a heavy smell of alcohol inside, and everyone was swaying around drunkenly, enjoying themselves.
At a glance, he saw Qing Qiuzi sitting next to the table and already starting to sing and shake his head.
Sitting at the table was a strong and resolute middle-aged man.
Lu Yuan immediately realized that that person was Yan Wu.
Li and Du were also drinking happily.
"Oh! Senior brothers, please be polite!" Lu Yuan said immediately after walking in.
Everyone was stunned. Li Qinglian immediately greeted: "My dear nephew, come quickly! Long time no see, have a drink!"
Qingqiuzi was also surprised and said: "Nephew, you have grown a lot taller. What a boy!" As he said this, he gestured for Lu Yuan to sit next to him.
The waiter very wisely brought a pair of bowls and chopsticks.
Lu Yuan was still standing, cupping his fists and saluting the guest above him: "Is this senior, General Yan of Western Shu?"
Yan Wu was a little surprised: "How does this kid recognize Yan?"
Lu Yuan sat down and said, "I have long heard that General Yan is brave, resolute, and majestic. Meeting my senior today is just like what I have heard before, so I would like to ask. I never thought he was indeed a general. What a pleasure to meet you!"
Yan Wu laughed loudly and said: "You humble people from Shu, how can you trouble the scholars from the Central Plains to praise me? Is this the leader of the Lu Yuanlu Alliance that Shi Mei mentioned?"
"That's right down there!"
"Hahahaha! Okay! Little hero, come on! Have a drink!"
"Dry!"
Lu Yuan picked up the large wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Okay! Enjoy it!" Yan Wu also drank in one gulp.
"Leader Lu, you are late. I wrote a poem before banishing the immortal: "Three cups lead to the road, and one fight unites nature." You just drank one cup, can you drink two more? "
"What's so difficult about this?"
Lu Yuan drank two large glasses of wine in succession, neither hissing nor sipping, as silent as a deep pool.
Yan Wu was overjoyed: "I just like young people like this! Drinking makes people happy! Hahaha! I am determined to be this friend!"
Everyone laughed and said, "We haven't introduced you yet, but you two have become familiar with each other first!"
After Lu Yuan arrived, Li Qinglian asked the waiter to add food and wine, and they ate until the sun went down.
Everyone rested for half an hour, and then planned to take a bath.
Lu Yuan said to Qing Qiuzi: "Uncle Master, I'm here to take you to Lushan. Although this is the capital of the country, I'm afraid it's not safe."
Then he whispered to everyone: "How about everyone follow me to Lushan?"
Qingqiuzi yawned: "If you didn't tell me, I would have gone to find you. Didn't I tell you before that I wanted to break the mystery? Changning's profound energy is very thin, and I really want to go to your Lu Mountain to practice."
Lu Yuan said happily: "Great! Uncle Master, I brought everything you asked for."
"Yes. I have also prepared those elixirs. You can send someone to deliver them some other time."
Lu Shimei said: "I plan to go back to Shu with Brother Yan Shi for temporary refuge. If the emperor is defeated and retreats to Western Shu, I can still go to support him."
Lu Yuan nodded: "Uncle Li, where do you plan to go?"
"I am at home all over the world. I am still staying in Changning for now, and I may go out for a while. Nephew, how do you think my cultivation is progressing?"
Only then did Lu Yuan realize that Li Qinglian's cultivation had actually reached the second level of eight stars!
"Uncle Master, you are a genius in cultivation!"
"Haha, it's just fun, not a genius."
Yan Wu said: "Looking at this battle, Dayu's capital will be destroyed sooner or later. Let's go back to Shu to operate, so as to leave a foundation for Dayu."
Li Qinglian smiled and said: "Old Yan, are you so willing to run Shu for so long?"
"Hey! Look what Lao Li said. I didn't say get out. I said our Shu area can be used as a base for counterattack."
He then said to Lu Yuan: "Master Lu, I heard that your alliance has a very good relationship with Xu Jingming and Lu Teng. These two old guys are obsessed with my territory in Zhongshu. Since we are all friends now, please talk to them. , we can accept it as soon as we see fit. From now on, in the entire Shu region, we will
If the world is divided equally between the two, there will be no need for fighting and killing, what do you think? "
Lu Yuan thought about the pros and cons very quickly in his mind.
This Yan Wu is also a tyrant. If Lu Teng and the others are pressed, there will probably be another civil strife. If both parties coexist, there can be checks and balances.
So, Lu Yuan said: "Of course there is no problem with this. I will go there in a while."
Yan Wu nodded and said to Du Shimei: "Brother, don't think that going to my brother's place is a blessing. As soon as the war started, the two old thieves wanted to use the monsters from the south to attack Changning from south to north. To At that time, our Sichuan land will become a battlefield. I want my subordinates to teach you some self-defense skills, and you must learn them carefully."
Du Shimei responded: "Okay!"
Li Qinglian took a sip of wine and said, "Old Yan, I think you have some misunderstanding about Shi Mei, hahahaha!"
"Oh?" Yan Wu expressed confusion.
"He watched Lady Gongsun dance her sword before and was mesmerized by it. Seeing that he was extremely talented in swordsmanship, she accepted him as her apprentice. Although Shi Mei cannot practice mystical arts, she is already considered a master in the mortal world."
Everyone was shocked.
Du Shimei smiled a little sheepishly.
Yan Wu opened his eyes wide and said, "Brother, would you like to have some sparring with Lao Li?"
Li Qinglian said: "Okay, Shi Mei, I will only use my mortal strength to try my moves with you."
Du Shimei shook her head: "It won't work here, the sword energy will damage things."
Everyone burst into laughter again.
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Du is an honest man."
Du Shimei said: "Brother Qinglian, let's go to the courtyard and try it? It's spacious there."
"Okay!" Everyone cheered.
Li Qinglian happily settled the bill and gave some tips as money for borrowing the venue.
Everyone came to the courtyard on the first floor, and there were many guests drinking and chatting around.
When they saw Lu Yuan and others standing in a circle, they all knew that they were swordsmen who were settling grievances or engaging in sparring. So they also cheered and gathered around to watch the show.
Someone recognized Li Qinglian and immediately screamed: "Oh my God! It's Li Qinglian! The banished immortal! The banished immortal is going to have a sword duel with someone!"
Some people, especially young women, recognized Du Shimei:
"Ah!!! It's plum!"
"Meiko, you are the best! Are you trying to compete with swords? No way!!"
For a moment, people crowded in and the scene was quite chaotic.
The store owner called many waiters to maintain order. Lu Yuan also didn't expect that the two of them would have so many supporters.
Du Shimei took a long sword from Li Qinglian and made a sword stance.
"Brother Qinglian, please enlighten me."
Someone who knows swordsmanship immediately shouted: "Gongsun Li's gesture! Meizi is Gongsun's disciple!"
"Ah! Really? He must be able to beat Li Qinglian!" Many young women shouted.
The image of Du Shimei's weak younger brother can especially arouse women's maternal nature.
Li Qinglian also made a sword gesture and said, "Please!"
As soon as the words fell, the two men quickly stabbed each other with their swords.
In an instant, there was a flash of swords and swords. Bursts of sword energy swayed from the core, cutting through many railings and rockeries.
The sounds of cheering and screaming came one after another.
Among the onlookers, some liked Li Qinglian and some liked Du Shimei, and they all got together. If the bartender hadn't separated them in time, a peripheral scuffle would have been inevitable.
Lu Yuan and Yan Wu were amazed. None of them expected that Du Shimei, who was so weak, could be so fierce and fierce when wielding a sword.
Not long after, there was a crisp sound of "clang", and the two of them jumped back.
Du Shimei took seven or eight steps back, and Li Qinglian took two steps back.
The two of them said at the same time: "Promise!"
"Wow!! I won, I won"
Advocates of both factions shouted. None of them obeyed anyone.
Lu Yuan went up to the two of them and said, "Both of you can fight with your mortal body."
So good, really awesome! I didn't expect Brother Du's swordsmanship to be so superb. "
Du Shimei wiped her sweat and smiled a little sheepishly: "Talk about swordsmanship in front of Master Lu Xian, it's really just a matter of skill."
"Excessive humility is pride," Lu Yuan said with a smile, "With your martial arts skills, I will feel relieved when you go to Shu."
Yan Wu patted Du Shimei's shoulder hard and said: "Brother, you are the one who secretly accepted Gongsun Li as your master without telling your elder brother. Hahaha! I would like to meet your master."
"Master, she went to Mobei. She won't come back in the next few years. I asked her why, but Master didn't tell me."
After everyone chatted for a while, they all set off to take a bath in the "Heaven and Earth".
It goes without saying how luxurious this place is. It can be said that if you want to take a bath in Changning, apart from the emperor's "Huaqing Pool", this is the place.
After taking a bath, Li Qinglian said goodbye and went home. Lu Yuan, Yan Wu and Du Shimei lived in Qingqiuzi's residence.
