Du Chengfeng himself rarely drinks alcohol.
There is no other reason. Drinking gives you a headache, and when you are drunk, you will also miss work. He still prefers peaceful relaxation to being drunk and dissolute.
For example, reading two books and drinking a cup of tea are things he is more accustomed to in his spare time.
So when he was preparing his belongings, Du Chengfeng didn't include wine. If he had to have something with alcohol content, it would only be cooking wine used in the kitchen.
Obviously, the big knife in his hand does not need something of this level.
So, even though it was already midnight, Du Chengfeng had to go out and go straight to Carpenter Li's house.
"Brother, open the door. Brother, I need help with something."
"Is it Brother Du? What's going on?"
Although he was still a little sleepy, after hearing clearly the voice of Du Chengfeng, Carpenter Li hurriedly ran out and opened the door.
Seeing Carpenter Li opening the door in front of him without even having time to put on his shoes, Du Chengfeng felt increasingly regretful. However, since he was already here, he could only bite the bullet and finish the matter first.
After listening to Du Chengfeng's needs, the anxious Carpenter Li relaxed.
"It turned out that I was borrowing wine. I thought it was a big deal... But if Brother Du really wants to use wine, just say no to the Yang family?"
This is not because Carpenter Li meant to refuse, but there is indeed a gap between wines. Just like Carpenter Li, as an ordinary citizen, he can only stock some cheap wine with his little income, and he can have a few cups to satisfy his cravings on weekdays when he has nothing to do. But if it were replaced by Jizhou Yang's cellar, even if it couldn't reach the level of the top palace jade liquor, it was far better than the cheap wine that ordinary people drank.
Since you need to use wine, it must take a long time. This kind of cheap wine that will give you a headache after drinking it is still too...
"It's different, brother, it's different."
Facing Carpenter Li's doubts, Du Chengfeng just shook his head.
He had also thought about asking the Yang family for wine. After all, what he wanted to ask the Yang family to do now was just a matter of words - but he always felt that, let alone the Yang family's cellar wine, even if it was replaced by The real palace jade liquid may not be as good as the few pots of loose white that Carpenter Li handed over now.
Du Chengfeng couldn't tell the quality of the wine, but he knew that the old brother stayed up most of the night and dug out these bottles of wine for himself on the spot.
"Thank you, brother! I'll go ahead now!"
Taking a deep breath, Du Chengfeng, who was speechless, could only clasp his fists, carry the wine bottle and walk out.
At this time, Carpenter Li followed him all the way out.
"Brother Du, it's so boring for you to drink alone in the middle of the night. If you want to drink, drink more lively!"
Hearing Carpenter Li say this, Du Chengfeng couldn't help but become speechless. Considering that he came over to borrow a drink, the old brother mistakenly thought that he was going to drink to relieve his worries.
It's no wonder that Li Carpenter thinks so. The main reason is that Du Chengfeng is really worried about things. The shadow of death is still lingering on his head. God knows when that monster named He Xiqing will come over. God knows. Can he survive that life and death duel?
What Du Chengfeng didn't expect was that the pressure he had hidden in his heart would even show on his face.
This is not a good thing.
At this moment, Du Chengfeng inexplicably recalled the memory of polishing the horse-breaking sword before. The swordsman named Liu Qingyun was like this. Although he looked calm and gentle, he was fighting with the swordsman Cui Yuan. Before, I still chose to run and sharpen the knife in my hand to make sure it was perfect.
Indeed, this can be seen as planning before taking action, a symbol of adequate preparation, but to a certain extent, it is also a manifestation of Liu Qingyun's uncertainty.
Because there is still pressure in my heart, because my subconscious has clearly realized that I can't do it, so I put my hope in external things, and I want to use various methods to grasp that illusory sense of security.
Even that sense of security is so illusory.
"It seems that there is still a big gap between me and that kind of true genius."
Thinking of this, Du Chengfeng couldn't help but open a bottle of wine and take a sip.
Drinking can ruin things and harm your body, but a little drink can really relax his tense spirit for a moment.
Although it was just cheap wine, it also gave Du Chengfeng some energy, so with the help of the wine, Du Chengfeng simply cooked two more snacks and chatted with Carpenter Li while drinking in the small courtyard.
Under the bright moonlight, in front of the wine table, there is one person, one sword, and one confidant.
Du Chengfeng suddenly felt that his current life seemed okay.
"It turns out that Brother Du, you asked for wine to sharpen your knife."
Seeing Du Chengfeng take a pot of wine and pour it all on the broadsword, Carpenter Li realized that he had gone astray before.
But this time, looking at the fierce sword in front of him, Carpenter Li felt inexplicably without any fear.
Although the last time he faced this big sword, he just stood up, but at that time he believed that the Du brother in front of him was not a bad person and would not swing the big knife to kill him - as for this one He had always stayed away from the sword that had killed so many people. It was precisely because of his fear of the sword that he even did not dare to visit often.
But now, Carpenter Li always felt that after pouring a pot of wine on it, the big knife seemed to suddenly become less scary.
It was like the entire knife fell asleep at this moment.
Even the harsh evil spirit on the blade has become softer, but this softness is not the dissipation of the evil spirit. Li Carpenter always feels that it is more like something is brewing, something more dangerous is brewing.
In order to suppress the tension of facing danger, Carpenter Li couldn't help but drink two more drinks.
Then he lay down on the table.
Li Carpenter himself can only drink two taels, and two cups is already considered a binge drink for him. Fortunately, he still remembered what he was doing, so he still managed not to fall asleep like this.
"That...Brother Du."
After three drinks, Carpenter Li became more relaxed in his words.
"I also know your worries. Although I still don't understand why you always think that barbarians will attack you, but if you really have such worries, then why don't you ask someone for help?"
"Who are you looking for? The Yang family?"
Du Chengfeng couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
It is better to expect Jizhou Yang to improve his strength. After all, ordinary people are not qualified to intervene in this kind of inhuman level battle.
In fact, the intervention of these ordinary people may actually make He Xiqing stronger.
After all, the principle that killing people can make you stronger was discovered by He Xiqing. That terrifying man has even begun to extend this method to his soldiers. If the two sides really confront each other, this Yangjiapu's Not only are people unable to help, they may even become food for He Xiqing to become stronger.
Therefore, the only one who can face this battle is himself, and only himself.
As for others, it is...
"If the Yang family can't do it, you can go find Governor Liu."
Just when Du Chengfeng was about to continue drinking, Carpenter Li spoke.
"Dudu Liu has been in charge of Jizhou for so long, he must have a way to deal with those barbarians."
