Since that night, Zui Sheng Meng Death Liquor Shop opened its doors an hour earlier every day to welcome customers.
However, every day at You hour, regardless of whether there are customers or not, the store will be closed on time.
From Youshi to Xushi, Li Xiuyuan, wearing a bamboo hat and cloak, spent an hour walking around Ding'an City. When Xushi arrived, he would come to a small shop by the lake to eat a pot of meat and two dishes of side dishes.
After eating, we took a stroll by the lake and didn’t leave until Hai.
This has become the most stable life for Li Xiuyuan since he came to Ding'an City, unshakable, rain or shine!
Even Li Qiushui was surprised. He looked at him and asked, "You still look like you never get tired of eating? Do you think this is your kitchen at home?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and smiled: "Just think of it as selling less than half a jar of wine every day."
After Li Xiuyuan paid Li Qiushui the full amount of spiritual stones for purchasing the small courtyard, she was no longer polite to him. Because when there is a shortage of cultivation resources, spiritual stones are the only cultivation resources in the wilderness.
Even the city lord's palace is not willing to spend 10,000 spirit stones to buy a property easily.
Just like he couldn't understand Li Xiuyuan's cultivation, Li Qiushui couldn't understand how much property Li Xiuyuan had.
In her opinion, if she wanted to borrow ten or twenty thousand from this guy, I'm afraid he wouldn't even blink an eye.
As long as she is willing to come over these days, she can see Li Xiuyuan sitting alone in the corner by the lake on time every day, unassuming and quiet.
The waiters in the small shop are already used to it. Their most distinguished customer, the table by the lake, is reserved for Li Xiuyuan every day, no matter whether the business is good or bad.
Li Qiushui was naturally happy to find a place where there was wine and stories to eat.
On the other hand, Li Xiuyuan always looked calm, and would not be depressed because of Li Qiushui's absence, nor would he drink an extra glass of wine because she came as promised.
No more than three drinks a day was his life principle. Even if Li Qiushui yelled at him several times, he still couldn't change his decision.
"Why? Are you still a man?" Li Qiushui was a little confused. Would drinking one more glass kill someone?
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and laughed, and replied calmly: "Others don't know, but for me, drinking one more drink may really kill someone."
Li Qiushui was startled, looked at him and asked, "Why? Who would come to kill you, the owner of a small wine shop?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and explained to her softly: "If I get drunk, who will take care of me? If I keep indulging myself and get drunk one day, will I die under the sword of my opponent on the way home?"
"People are floating in the world, who doesn't have a few enemies?" Li Xiuyuan thought of Yan Ruobing and others in Wangtian City, and sighed softly.
Li Qiu Shui looked at him and nodded, and replied thoughtfully: "According to what you said, you really can't indulge yourself. Even if you are at home, if you are drunk and unconscious, you may die by your opponent's sword. "
"I'm very afraid of death, so I have to be careful." Li Xiuyuan looked at her and smiled lightly.
The two of them looked at the wind and snow on the lake. After a long time, a voice sounded in his ears: "Why doesn't that girl Huangfu Qingmei stop coming to your store recently?"
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while, and after a long silence, he replied seriously: "He is the princess of the Grand Marshal's Palace. I am just a money-grubbing wine shop owner. It's different."
Li Qiushui looked at him and continued to follow the same path: "What kind of path? Can we be the same?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and replied calmly: "Like you and me, we can watch the wind and snow on this lake and sit in this small shop without any obstruction, drinking and eating meat."
Li Qiushui looked at him, frowned slowly and asked, "Why don't you try to make do with it?"
Li Xiuyuan was stunned, and after a moment of silence he replied: "Because I will not live a life of make do. I have never changed myself for someone before, and I will never change myself for someone in the future."
Seeing that she remained silent, Li Xiuyuan continued: "If I make a change for someone, then do I need to change the way I adhere to in practice? If the way I practice can be changed, why should I practice so hard?"
Li Qiushui's frowning eyebrows gradually relaxed, and he looked at the young man in front of him, with a gleam of winter sunshine in his eyes.
She seemed to be praising and marveling at the same time, because the feeling Li Xiuyuan gave her was far beyond her best imagination. He was a practitioner with ideals and perseverance.
She would not change herself just to be the princess of Fucheng. Such a character was something she had never encountered before.
Li Xiuyuan poured her a glass of wine and said calmly: "Practice is only a personal matter for each practitioner. Even though I made changes for her, it will not change anything in my practice."
"I live just for myself, not for anyone else."
Li Qiushui picked up the wine glass in front of him and looked at him tenderly. His laughter was hoarse and weird, as if he were appreciating a jade in his own home: "You are very clean, even cleaner than me. I like it very much."
Li Xiuyuan was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"Most practitioners in this world keep changing for others for the sake of a few pitiful cultivation resources. In the end, they have forgotten why they practiced in the first place."
Li Qiushui continued: "Not to mention you, it's me back then. How can I insist on my own principles like you do today? The truth is very simple, but not many people can persist in it."
"I want to persist." Looking at Li Qiushui, Li Xiuyuan replied softly
Li Qiushui flicked his long sleeves, picked up the wine glass, drank all the wine in the glass, and said with a faint smile: "I'm afraid that the big shots in the city can't do this simplest persistence, right?!"
Li Xiuyuan looked at it and said with a smile: "You must be the most persistent woman in the world."
Li Qiushui picked up the wine vat and poured himself a glass of wine. He looked at him and asked, "You are wrong. I am just a money-greedy woman in Ding'an City. If you don't believe me, why don't you go and find out?"
After pondering for a moment, Li Xiuyuan asked tentatively: "Like me?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Li Qiu Shui laughed out loud when he saw him, shook his head repeatedly and said, "You like to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, so you pretend to be a greedy guy... I am a tiger, do you need to pretend?"
"Am I pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger? You are the tiger..."
Li Xiuyuan was shocked and speechless after hearing these extremely simple words and extremely clear explanations. He was speechless for a long time.
According to Li Qiushui, she really didn't need to pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger. If she needed to pretend, she would have to pretend to be a dragon. But, are there dragons in this world?
After being silent for a long time, he asked in confusion: "Do you think you have nothing more to pursue in this world?"
Li Qiu Shui was slightly stunned, looked at him and said amusedly: "Fart, I want to reach the transcendent realm one day, and then fly away to pursue my own path to immortality."
A few snowflakes were blown into the house by the north wind, fell gently into the hot pot, and disappeared from the world without making a sound.
Li Xiuyuan watched this scene and said quietly: "When I brew a vat of fine wine next spring, maybe I can help you see that extraordinary realm in less than two years."
To others, Li Xiuyuan was no longer willing to put in more effort.
Right now, he just wants to complete the agreement with Ximen Lone Star, and then completely separate from these two arrogant guys from now on.
When Li Qiushui heard this, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and murmured: "What if that's the case? I still want to pursue more ways of practice. After all, transcendence is not the ultimate way of practice in this world..."
"It's just a way of cultivation? It doesn't matter, I can help you!"
Looking at the dumbfounded Li Qiushui, Li Xiuyuan said calmly.
In that extraterritorial battle a few years later, if Li Qiushui was still in Ding'an City at that time, he would not mind giving her a chance.
Just because the teachers and masters around him who need this opportunity will ascend and leave their respective heavens.
"You sit here, I have to go out and take a few steps. Sitting every day these days has made me gain weight..."
Before Li Qiushui could reply, Li Xiuyuan walked to the lake and started walking on the lakeside through the thick snow.
The waiter who came up to refill the water looked at Li Qiu Shui's surprised look and explained with a smile: "The shopkeeper hasn't been here these days. This distinguished guest has to walk by the lake for a while after dinner every day, saying it's to eat."
Li Qiushui was stunned, looked at Li Xiuyuan walking in the snow, and whispered softly: "Is this guy sick? He's fine, he's not a three-year-old kid running to play in the snow."
...
After inscribing the first rune on the courtyard wall, Li Xiuyuan spent five days inscribing the entire winery with runes. The current wine shop, as long as he is willing, is the Great Wall that water cannot enter.
Since he came back from Wangtian City, Huangfu Qingmei and Ximen Guxing came twice, but there was no news from them again.
Only Ximen Xiaoyu comes here every two days, and even goes to sit at the counter when he is not practicing the piano, looking like a small wine shopkeeper.
Until the cold winter was about to end, the spring breeze of the first month greened the wasteland by the lake, and new shoots sprouted in the backyard of the small wine shop. Until Li Xiuyuan closed the door and admired the scenery of the lake, until Ximen Xiaoyu found him here.
"Master, let me tell you, you don't open the door to sell wine in broad daylight, and you come here to drink tea... You really know how to enjoy it..."
Ximen Xiaoyu glared at Li Xiuyuan, sat down opposite him, and chattered to him.
Li Xiuyuan looked at the gradually disappearing spring fog and listened to the sound of the snow melting above his head. He lazily replied: "I am sleepy in the spring sleep. Can't you come here to enjoy the spring?"
"You're not doing business anymore? What if someone comes to buy wine and can't find you in the future?"
Ximen Xiaoyu complained softly, looking anxious for Li Xiuyuan.
Li Xiuyuan looked at her, shook his head, and chuckled: "This wine shop will still be run by someone in the future. I won't stay here forever..."
After speaking, he waved his hand and a black sword box appeared on the table.
Not waiting for Ximen Xiaoyu's monster skin, Li Xiuyuan didn't bother to ask her for it, so he went to the city to find Tiemu and made a sword box for her.
Ximen Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered what he had promised his master, and two red clouds flew over his face.
Gently opening the sword box, he saw a long sword with a blue glow inside and a dark red flame pattern in the middle.
Under the tentacles, she was unable to take out the long sword from the sword case.
Taking a deep breath, I took it in my hand. I saw that the blade of the sword was indeed the same as before, with a cloud pattern like raindrops. This was the special symbol of the Tingyu Sword.
"Master, I'm afraid this sword weighs fifty pounds, right?" Ximen Xiaoyu didn't say thank you because she knew that a thank you was not enough to express her feelings at the moment.
"It's not that heavy, it only weighs forty-four kilograms... I'm afraid it will take you a year or two to get used to this sword again. I have no intention of doing these things in the future, moving the sword It takes too much effort to handle the sword."
Li Xiuyuan's talisman arrows have been cast, and he even put away the casting platform.
No matter who comes to beg him, he will never start the furnace again.
Ximen Xiaoyu was stunned again. He didn't expect that the Tingyu Sword would have a perfect sound. Even if his brother and Huangfu Qingmei wanted it, it would be impossible.
Li Xiuyuan looked at her confused eyes and smiled, and then said: "In two days, I will make the medicinal wine your brother asked for, and you can help him take it back. From now on, practice well at home, and don't come to me if you have nothing to do."
After the cold winter passes, I wonder if a group of people from Wangtian City will come to Ding'an City to look for me after hearing the news? Li Xiuyuan didn't dare to confirm. Before that, he just wanted to say goodbye to everyone around him.
I'm a barrel of gunpowder. Don't come looking for me.
