It was drizzling in the bamboo forest, and the rain, mist, and moisture were blowing on my face. Two men in bamboo hats were slowly walking along the forest path.
"Did Lao Zhu forget us two?"
A man in a blue shirt asked quietly.
"I don't know either……"
The man in black at the head was holding a pot of old wine. Before he finished speaking, he suddenly staggered and fell into the mud pit.
When the man in blue shirt saw this, he rubbed his forehead and said:
"How addicted are you to alcohol? You still have the energy to drink this time. Let's find Zhu Shun and the others quickly."
These two people were Xu Shanchao and Wei Jianchao. They couldn't wait for Zhu Shun and Wen Kui until they got tired of waiting, so they set out to look for them.
Wei Jianchao stood up, patted the dirt on his body, and said, "What do you know?"
"Wine can make me brave. I'm afraid of meeting monsters in the bamboo forest. My heart is tense, for fear that the monster will catch me and eat me!"
Xu Shanchao smiled and said, "Aren't you talking nonsense? There are no monsters in the bamboo forest!"
"Let's continue on our way and try to find them as soon as possible."
After saying that, the two of them continued walking slowly...
He said that everyone in the Qinghong Gang was unconvinced after being beaten away by Zhu Shun.
Feng Niankang scolded: "Damn it, that guy is quite capable. He beat us away with three strikes, five divided by two!"
"But he can run away, but the monk can't run away from the temple. I will go back to my master to complain, and I will definitely skin him!"
Buck Teeth said:
"Boss, let's look for a leader. We'll search the entire Du Valley. I don't believe we can't find that guy!"
Everyone in the Qinghong Gang was talking about it.
"Yes, did him!"
"This is simply a slap in the face on our Qinghong Gang's territory!"
"This can't be tolerated!"
"I can't bear it!"
...........
While everyone in the Qinghong Gang was discussing among themselves, they suddenly saw two people walking on the path in the forest.
It was Wei Jianchao and Xu Shanchao.
Wei Jianchao drank wine with a face full of enjoyment, but Feng Niankang became angry when he saw Wei Jianchao's expression, thinking he was laughing at them.
"No, you are so laid-back, you actually got drunk!"
Seeing Wei Jianchao's expression of enjoyment, Feng Niankang felt angry in his heart, so he deliberately stepped forward to trouble Wei Jianchao.
Wei Jianchao turned around and saw Feng Niankang, smiled and said, "What's wrong?"
Feng Niankang raised his eyebrows and cursed: "Didn't you see that we were being bullied? We are still leisurely!"
Wei Jianchao turned to look at Xu Shanchao, a little confused. He was more confused about what was wrong with drinking.
When Feng Niankang saw that Wei Jianchao was silent, he thought it was because he had a guilty conscience, and became even more angry. He cursed, "Oh no, you think you are so great that you don't dare to challenge us!"
Wei Jianchao looked at Feng Niankang and was speechless for a long time.
He was not afraid of Feng Niankang, but it was wrong to just drink. This confused him too much.
When Feng Niankang saw that Wei Jianchao didn't speak, he cursed: "Don't speak, right? If you don't speak, I'll let you speak!"
After saying that, Feng Niankang rolled up his sleeves, stretched out his hand and punched Wei Jianchao.
Wei Jianchao stretched out his hand to block it and said: "Brother, if you have something to say, please speak it carefully and don't do anything!"
Wei Jianchao flipped his wrist and twisted Feng Niankang's wrist with a "pop" sound. Feng Niankang screamed "ouch, ouch" in pain.
Feng Niankang pointed at Wei Jianchao and shouted: "Oh no, you dare to fight back. Do you know who I am?"
Wei Jianchao turned to look at Feng Niankang and said, "I don't care who you are, if you fight back I won't be polite to you!"
Feng Niankang turned to his younger brothers and shouted: "You are all stupid, you don't even go up to help!"
Feng Niankang looked at his younger brothers watching the show, and immediately became angry and cursed: "Are you guys tigers?"
"You don't dare to go up, do you?"
The boys looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, and they moved slowly one by one.
When Feng Niankang saw that his younger brothers still didn't act, he suddenly became furious and cursed: "You bunch of wimps, I will smash you all when I get back!"
When the younger brothers heard Feng Niankang's scolding, they all raised their sticks and attacked Wei Jianchao.
Wei Jianchao turned around and saw these people rushing towards him, let go of Feng Niankang, and calmly drew a spear from behind.
I saw Wei Jianchao's body swaying, "whoosh, whoosh" in a few lunges, and he came to these younger brothers.
Wei Jianchao drew out his spear, turned over like a kite, and danced like a gun.
These younger brothers were no match for Wei Jianchao. They were all beaten in a miserable state.
Wei Jianchao fired one shot at a time, and in the blink of an eye, several young men were lying on the ground.
These young men had never seen this formation before. Each one of them was so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they stood there blankly, not daring to move.
Xu Shanchao was sitting on the side, cracking melon seeds. Seeing Wei Jianchao shoot one by one, he opened his mouth in surprise, "Awesome, incredible!"
Wei Jianchao smiled and said:
"Kiwi, if you want to learn how to shoot, I will teach you."
Xu Shanchao cursed:
"go away!"
Those people from the Qinghong Gang all had their faces turned pale with fear.
Feng Niankang pointed at Wei Jianchao and shouted: "You dare to hit my people, do you know who I am?"
Wei Jianchao turned to look at Feng Niankang and said, "I don't care who you are, if you get out now, I won't care about you!"
Feng Niankang said: "I am Feng Niankang, the proud disciple of Zhang Wuxian, one of the eight leaders of the Qinghong Gang. Do you think I am afraid or not?"
Wei Jianchao pulled out his spear and waved it, and said: "I don't care who you are, just go away now and I won't argue with you!"
When Feng Niankang saw that Wei Jianchao really touched the guy, he got scared and said, "Okay, okay, let's
Let’s go! "
After saying that, Feng Niankang and the other boys quickly picked up their belongings and ran away in a panic.
When Wei Jianchao saw Feng Niankang and the others leaving, he smiled and said, "Isn't this just deliberately looking for trouble?"
"Let's go."
After saying that, the two of them continued walking slowly through the forest.
After a while, a county town slowly appeared in front, and the three characters "Dugu County" came into view.
Wei Jianchao and Xu Shanchao looked very surprised. They didn't expect that there was a county town here, which saved them both from leaving.
Wei Jianchao smiled and said: "Kiwi, there is a county town ahead. Let's go and have a stroll."
Xu Shanchao nodded and said, "Let's go."
When the two of them entered the county town, they saw that the county town was bustling with people coming and going, including those selling various commodities, snacks, and weapons.
Wei Jianchao said: "We have walked all the way, let's find a tavern to have something to eat."
Xu Shanchao nodded and said, "Okay."
After saying that, the two of them looked for a restaurant.
After wandering around for a while, Wei Jianchao asked: "I'm talking about Kiwi, how big is Dugu County? We've been wandering around for almost half an hour and we haven't found the tavern yet."
Xu Shanchao turned to look at Wei Jianchao and said, "This county is so big. No matter where you go, there will be a tavern."
Wei Jianchao nodded helplessly and said, "That's right."
While the two were looking for a restaurant, what were the passers-by talking about?
A few days ago, two people from other places killed Lao Bahu Keyi, one of the eight leaders of the Qinghong Gang. They were really doing harm to the people.
When Wei Jianchao heard about the Qinghong Gang, he thought of those people who were looking for trouble for no reason. He was confused, what kind of gang was the Qinghong Gang? It seemed that the people were disgusted.
Wei Jianchao thought about it for a while, and it gave him a headache. In the end, he didn't think about it at all because he was not good at using his head. After thinking about it and it had nothing to do with him, he just didn't think about it anymore and quickly found a tavern.
After a while, they found a tavern with four big characters on the plaque: "Guike Tavern"
They saw that the door of this tavern was surrounded by black curtains. The decoration inside was very luxurious, and it looked like a luxury. The two of them looked shocked.
When Wei Jianchao and his two men entered the tavern, they saw that the tavern was bustling with people. Xu Shanchao observed the people around him and saw that those people were all dressed in bright clothes, but the dress of the drinkers did not look like poor people.
All dressed in gold and silver.
Wei Jianchao and Xu Shanchao looked at their clothes and couldn't help but feel a little bitter in their hearts.
I saw these drinkers with contempt in their eyes, looking at Wei Jianchao and Xu Shanchao with disdain.
Wei Jianchao and Xu Shanchao looked at each other and sat down at a table without saying anything.
The waiter looked at the costumes of Wei Jianchao and Xu Shanchao with contempt on his face, thinking that it was ridiculous for two bumpkins from the countryside to dare to come to this tavern for rich people.
Then he shouted loudly: "Hey!
Hello!
You two, hurry up and go to the table over there.
Don't hinder my business. If you want food, go somewhere else! "
Wei Jianchao and Xu Shanchao looked a little unhappy when they heard the waiter's shouting.
Xu Shanchao smiled and said:
"We're here to eat, so maybe we should dress a little more casually."
In fact, Xu Shanchao looked cheerful on the surface, but in his heart he was very unhappy with the waiter's attitude.
The waiter saw that those two people were dressed up.
But he asked impatiently: "What do you want to eat?"
Wei Jianchao and Wei Jianchao looked at each other, looking at the waiter's contemptuous eyes.
Wei Jianchao pulled Xu Shanchao's sleeve, and Xu Shanchao nodded.
Xu Shanchao asked: "Can we take a look at the menu?"
When the waiter heard Xu Shanchao's question, he said disdainfully: "Okay, you can just take a look and order whatever you want to eat. The food at this VIP tavern is the best in the entire county."
Xu Shanchao nodded and said, "Then let's have two signature dishes and nothing else."
After saying that, Xu Shanchao handed over the menu.
When the two of them saw the prices on the menu, they were immediately shocked.
Wei Jianchao and Xu Shanchao looked at each other and continued to pick for a long time.
Wei Jianchao asked: "It's just two signature dishes. These are too expensive. Are you lying?"
The waiter said with contempt on his face: "You two country bumpkins, stop showing off here. The food in this VIP tavern is not something people like you can afford. Leave now."
Xu Shanchao and Xu Shanchao were a little unhappy when they heard what the waiter said.
In the end, the two of them ordered a pot of rice wine and a plate of cucumber dishes.
These drinkers looked at the dishes they ordered, which immediately caused a burst of ridicule.
"Haha, these two people are really ridiculous, ordering such things."
"I think they are looking for abuse, they are just two poor people."
"Looking at their clothes, they are probably from the countryside. Some of them are feeling uncomfortable today."
These drinkers looked at Wei Jianchao and Xu Shanchao with mocking faces.
Wei Jianchao and Xu Shanchao didn't say anything when they heard these contemptuous words.
At this moment, a middle-aged man walked in from outside the tavern. The middle-aged man was dressed in white and had a sword hanging from his waist. He was polite and looked like a rich man.
When the waiter saw a guest coming in, he hurriedly greeted him.
The man in white looked around and saw the drinkers in the tavern. His face was full of contempt and asked: "What delicious food do you have here?"
When the waiter saw the rich man, he immediately became respectful and said, "Sir, what do you want to eat?"
The man in white put his hands behind his back, coughed and said, "Look at the menu."
When the waiter saw what the man in white said, he respectfully brought the menu to the man in white.
Xu Shanchao murmured:
"It just so happens that we are treated very differently."
The man in white looked at the menu, frowned, wiped his forehead, and said, "Then let's have a plate of cucumber dishes and a pot of rice wine."
After saying that, the man in white took out a bag of scattered copper coins from his arms and placed them on the table.
Looking at the copper coins on the table of the man in white, the waiter's eyes widened and he said, "Sir, your small amount of money is not enough for a meal. Why don't you get more."
The man in white had cold sweat on his face, wiped his forehead, and asked:
"Isn't this enough?"
"This is already all my savings. How about being accommodating?"
The man in white put his hands behind his back, coughed, and said, "You go ahead and do your work. I have something else to do. If it's not convenient for you, I'll leave first."
After saying that, the waiter's face changed and he cursed: "You look very polite, but I didn't expect you to be a poor guy."
The man in white was a little angry, but he didn't want to get angry. He held it in for a long time and said, "I don't have any money right now, so excuse me, I'm leaving first."
All the drinkers in the tavern laughed.
Seeing this, Xu Shanchao quickly stuffed the waiter with some silver coins and said:
"How about I pay for him?"
The waiter quickly held the money in his arms and said with a smile: "We are open for business. This is our professional ethics."
Then the waiter politely said to the man in white: "My guest, please use it slowly."
After saying that, the waiter continued to greet other guests.
The man in white bowed his head and thanked you, and said, "Thank you very much just now. If I have a chance, I'll treat you to dinner another day."
After saying that, he started eating at the same table with Xu Shanchao and Wei Jianchao.
During the meal, Xu Shanchao asked for information about the man in white.
Xu Shanchao only knew that the man had a name in the world, called "Qinglian Taibai". As for other information, except for his name, he didn't know anything else. He told Xu Shanchao that his name was Taibai.
His title and title are worth pondering. Who doesn’t know that the person with the pinnacle of swordsmanship in the world of martial arts is Li Weile? Li Weile’s sword is Taibai, one of the four divine swords. People in the world of martial arts also call Li Weile the “Qinglian Ranger”. This man in white clothes The man, his name, and his name are all somewhat related to Li Weile.
There are three people at such a table, two plates of side dishes, and two pots of rice wine.
Xu Shanchao looked at the two pots of rice wine in front of him, smacked his lips, and said, "I said, can we finish it?"
Wei Jianchao glanced at Xu Shanchao and said: "What do you know? We are three people and we can't finish drinking. How can we show the deep friendship between us without drinking?"
Xu Shanchao looked at Wei Jianchao and was speechless for a moment.
The man in white named Taibai smiled and said:
"Brother Wei is right."
Then, he said to Wei Jianchao: "Brother Wei, I think you are also a person who knows how to drink. Why don't we come and compare."
Wei Jianchao waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, I can't drink well, so let's forget it and don't cause any trouble to you."
The man in white named Taibai smiled and said, "Brother Wei, why did you say this?" Wei Jianchao said:
"Since Brother Taibai wants to compete, I won't shirk it, come on."
After saying that, Wei Jianchao gave Taibai a look, and Taibai gave Wei Jianchao a look. The two looked at each other and smiled, then started drinking.
Xu Shanchao looked at the two people in front of him and didn't know what to say for a moment. They were eating and drinking at the same time, which had a different flavor.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Taibai, drinking wine, pulled out the sword from his waist and started dancing. The sword flowers were dazzling and his figure was erratic. For a moment, the atmosphere in the tavern was also stirred up by him.
Wei Jianchao looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes sparkling with light, intoxicated by it, and he didn't know where to start for a while.
Taibai danced with the sword, drank wine, and recited poems...
Taibai drank wine, danced with his sword, and recited poems:
“I don’t see you, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky and rushes to the sea never to return.”
"Don't you see, the bright mirror in the high hall has sad white hair, and it looks like blue silk in the morning and turns to snow in the evening."
"If you are happy in life, you must have all the joy, and don't let the golden cup stand empty against the moon."
"I was born with a talent that will be useful. All my money is gone! I'll come back!"
"It's fun to cook sheep and slaughter cows. You have to drink three hundred cups in one drink!"
"Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, is about to drink wine, but don't stop drinking.
"Sing a song with you, please listen to it for me."
"Bells, drums, food and jade are not expensive, but I hope I will never wake up after being drunk for a long time.
In ancient times, all the sages were lonely, but only the drinkers left their names. "
"In the old days, King Chen had great banquets, wine fights and endless banter.
What does the master mean if he has less money? It is up to you to sell it. "
"The five-flowered horse and the golden fur will be exchanged for fine wine."
"Selling it with you will cause you eternal sorrow!"
...........
The drinkers looked at Taibai's figure, drinking wine and dancing with his sword. They clapped their hands in admiration and were intoxicated...
