Of course, its reputation is only among mortals. Occasionally, a very small number of down-and-out immortals come here to ask for a jar or two of good wine. The aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. Over time, although this winery looks dilapidated, it has gained a certain reputation among the nearby neighbors.
"Uncle Beard, Uncle Beard, someone is here to get some drinks." At this time, a six or seven-year-old girl dressed in ordinary clothes and wrapped in a thick cotton-padded jacket happily crossed the low threshold of the wine shop. Two other boys of similar age followed closely behind. They were children from neighboring households in the alley. They yelled Uncle Beard together.
A little further away, a few strong men in Tsing Yi, dressed for business, came riding in the snow on tall horses. All the wine jars on the carriage behind were fixed with baskets.
"Dongfang, hurry up and bring out all your good wine. This time, I'll clear out all your inventory." Several of them were errands in the town. One of them, Captain Yuan, was a frequent visitor to the wine shop. distance, he shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Today's wine has been sold out. I have to wait for the next batch of wine to come out." A lazily burping voice came from the winery.
"Is it possible that your winery doesn't have any inventory?" the leader, Wang Captou, frowned.
"Boss, this one-armed man is also a drunkard himself. The wine he brews does taste pretty good. Except for the sold wine, he feeds most of it to himself. Plus, he is lazy and has stayed here for several years. The wine cellar There are indeed rare times when there is no stock." Agent Yuan quickly explained, "How about we come back next time?"
"No, the county is hosting a banquet for all the guests, and the wines are divided into three, six, and nine grades. I heard that since this one-armed man has the ability to make wine, he invited him to make wine for the county, and the county will not let him suffer. "Wang Captou said, "Since you are familiar with this person, it is up to you to invite him."
"Okay, okay." Captain Yuan frowned secretly. The one-armed Dongfang was notoriously lazy.
"One-armed man, the county magistrate has invited you, please come out quickly." Captain Wang quickly dismounted his horse and strode into the winery.
"What can the county magistrate do to me, a drunkard?"
There was a person inside who was slightly thin, wearing a gray wolf-skin coat, of medium height and slightly tall, and his eyes were hazy with a bit of intoxication. He had a beard that was an inch or two long and had not been trimmed for a while. The man was belching wine and his right arm was empty.
Detective Wang secretly thought it was a pity. This man was born with a good figure and his skills were not weak. Although he had never seen this person take action in person, the big wine vat, wine barrels, and the water needed to make wine would not take long for his body. It's not something that weak people can do. What's more, this person only has one arm.
"Uncle Beard is a big lazy guy. He didn't wake up until now." The pretty little girl just now hugged the one-armed Beard's thigh, which was full of alcohol, and said affectionately.
"Qiaoer, be good, let uncle give you a kiss." One-armed Beard leaned down and picked up the girl named Qiaoer with one arm, pretending to kiss her.
Joel blocked One-Armed Beard's neck with his arm, giggling and leaning back, "Uncle Beard's beard is prickly, and Joel doesn't want you to kiss him."
"One-armed man, Capt. Yuan is not very patient outside. Please go out and reply quickly."
Agent Wang has been drinking here many times. He was familiar with him once and became familiar with him the second time. Over time, he also developed some friendship with One-Armed Beard. He glanced outside at Yuan Captou, who looked not very good-looking.
"It's just making wine. I only have this simple job. I can make wine, but I have to bring Qiaoer with me." The one-armed beard nodded in agreement. On this one-third of an acre of land with a radius of hundreds of miles, for ordinary mortals, , the county magistrate is the god here, naturally the one-armed beard will not be so unwise.
"Okay, okay, just agree." Detective Wang breathed a sigh of relief.
"There are some candies in the house, go look for them yourself, don't make a fuss here, or I'll come back and spank you." When One-Armed Beard went out, he said to the children next to him who still had snot in their noses.
"Thank you Uncle Beard, let's go find something to eat." Several dolls with missing front teeth and sniffles roared towards One-Armed Beard's residence.
"Little brat." Qiao Er curled his mouth as he hung on his one-armed beard, and his words turned out to be quite mature.
The sound of horse hooves was heard on the street. Qiaoer sat on the carriage and felt that Uncle Beard's originally not very strong body was as if made of copper and iron. Sitting on the carriage, he didn't even sway at all.
The one-armed beard is like an old monk entering samadhi, but it is not the county Zungongmen who went to the arrester with the one-armed beard. It is the palace of Changning County Prince who lives here.
A strange look flashed in the eyes of the one-armed bearded man, "Yuan Captou, aren't we going to the county magistrate's place? How can we come to the county prince's palace?"
"Curiosity killed the cat. Don't ask questions about things you shouldn't know." Yuan Captou smiled solemnly. Watching this, Captain Wang felt a chill in his heart and no longer dared to ask any more questions.
Along a winding river, everyone stopped in a small forest near a pavilion. Yuan Captou said in a cold tone, "One-armed man, stay here and don't move around, otherwise you can't bear the consequences."
After saying that, several policemen rode away quickly. At this time, a young man with a somewhat enchanting face walked out of the small forest. He was said to be enchanting because this young man was somewhat feminine and not masculine.
"The little one is hiding in the forest, and the big one is hiding in the city. I didn't expect that a spiritual wine brewer would come to our Redfish Town. I don't know what you call him?" The young man in blue held the orchid finger, bent a few strands of hair, and walked lightly. He stepped out of the forest and asked softly.
There was also a young woman with a graceful figure who came hand in hand with this young man. Her lips were red and her teeth were white, and her eyes were like autumn water.
"How did you find out?" One-Armed Beard said calmly, not surprised by his identity.
"Green Bamboo Brewing, I, the Green-Winged Snake, like this the most. It's just that Green Bamboo Brewing is easy to get, but good Green Bamboo Brewing is hard to find in Pingyun Prefecture. Your Excellency actually mixed the Green Bamboo Brewing in ordinary mortal water and regarded it as It’s such a shame to sell worldly things.”
The young man in blue lifted his finger, white light flashed, and a green snake with a triangular head and a pair of wings on its back, about as long as a ruler, swam from the wide sleeves to the palm of the young man in blue.
Qiaoer was only a few years old girl. When she saw the cold green-winged snake, she screamed and shrank into the arms of One-Armed Beard.
The Green-Winged Snake smelled Qiao Er's breath, and suddenly seemed to be rioting. It screamed sharply and made a gesture to pounce forward.
"Green-winged Spirit Snake? No wonder. Put this beast away, otherwise don't blame me for killing it and making snake soup. Judging from your appearance, you should be from the Prince's Palace of Changning County. You are from a good background, but your eyesight is really poor. A mere foundation-building junior dares to be so presumptuous in front of me, it’s really embarrassing.”
The one-armed bearded man snorted coldly, hugged Qiaoer with one hand, stretched out his fingers, and a ray of sword-shaped energy shot out, hitting the green-winged snake's abdomen. The green-winged snake screamed in pain and looked at the one-armed beard in front of him in fear. The previous sinister aura was gone, replaced by incomparable fear, and it kept shrinking back.
