I live in Dayu Changsheng

Chapter 159, cooking wine

Raozhou, Changxing Fucheng.

There is a tavern.

Fang Rui turned into a scholar in green shirts, and took Xin Xueer to sit down in a cubicle on the second floor.

Refreshments were placed on the table, and the shop owner had an ingenious idea to make these refreshments into small animals.

Xin Xueer was reluctant to eat, fiddled with the snacks on her own plate, her big eyes sparkled, and she muttered in a low voice, as if she was interpreting the story Fang Rui told her, it was like playing house, and she enjoyed it alone.

Sensing Fang Rui's gaze, she tilted her head and looked over: "Uncle?"

"It's okay, you can play!"

Fang Rui touched the little girl's head.

Having been together for such a long time, Xin Xueer would still be shy in front of outsiders; but facing him, she has already relaxed naturally, like a kitten showing its softest belly to its owner.

Xin Xueer played.

Fang Rui poured himself a glass of wine, looked down, and listened attentively.

This location is excellent, with excellent lighting. An unknown potted plant is bathed in sunlight, refracting a little bit of light and shadow, transparent like glass; and you can look down through the fence and listen to the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys of all living beings.

……

Down below, even though the words 'Don't talk about state affairs' are posted on the wall, it can't stop the chatter of these drinkers.

"It's hard to live, it's drought again, and locusts again..." Someone sighed.

"Yeah, I also heard that this, our Raozhou, is the best among the three states in the southwest, and the disaster is relatively light. Yuanzhou and Liangzhou are really miserable!" Another person continued.

"The day before yesterday, I heard from a peddler that some places in Liangzhou have already changed their sons to eat each other."

"My family can't survive, so how can I still have the heart to sympathize with other states?"

A man's face was full of sorrow: "I only care about the things at the door of the house. Recently, more and more people have broken their homes!"

"Isn't it? The food harvest is reduced. If you want to survive, you have to borrow money. But if you borrow the 'beheading debt', you will lose your head. In the end, the land will be gone, and the people will be gone... Even if you have some family background, don't Borrow it, but you can't prevent someone from staring at you and specifically tricking you..."

"Well, in this age, some people suffer from disasters and some people get rich. It is said that natural disasters and man-made disasters, but how can natural disasters compare to man-made disasters?"

"Why don't you ask the government to uphold justice?" A young scholar-like person asked.

"Isn't this baby young? Who do you think is behind those officials and landlords? Corrupt officials, a nest of snakes and rats, you are not joking!"

"Explore the common people together, and the benefits we get will be divided into [-] to [-]%..." This is a see-through.

"Hey, no way, no way to say this!"

The shopkeeper hurriedly came out: "Everyone, put away your supernatural powers! Drink as much as you want, and don't talk about state affairs."

……

"The Raozhou of the three southwest states is rich in products and full of rivers and rivers. Even if there is a severe drought and locust plague this year, it will be relatively least affected."

"Can……"

Fang Rui shook his head: "As these people said, the government I have seen along the way is also the worst."

"In such a big environment, when most people can't survive, how can we not rise up?"

……

The shopkeeper's appearance had some effect, but when he turned around, the discussions among these drinkers started again.

A group of poor people, if they don't vent their depression and aggrieved hearts with two or three bowls of dirty wine, they will get sick.

However, after all, I still gave face and changed the topic.

"There is a "Demon League" in Liangzhou. There is a demon ancestor in the "Demon League". It is said that he is nine feet tall, with black faces and fangs. ..." The man's tone was excited.

"My brother-in-law's nephew's elder brother's neighbor works in the government office, and he heard the news that the ruthless man who called himself 'Demon Ancestor' killed all the ancestors of the Zhoucheng family in Liangzhou..." Another person continued. .

"In troubled times, monsters will come out!"

"Don't talk about Liangzhou, our Raozhou also has a Yuwen'an? Once it became popular, it even went down to the land of Shenmu and Yuqing."

"I heard that there are people who are good at looking forward to the spirit, saying that this person is against the king's fate, he is a pioneer of the king..." Someone whispered.

"Being a king and defeating a bandit, why are you against the king and not against the king, and are the pioneers of the king? If you really succeed, then you are the real king."

"Yes! I heard that Yu Wen'an has 20 troops, travels on sixteen vehicles, and covers three miles behind. Such a scene is heartbreaking!"

……

"That's right, man!"

Sitting in a corner, a middle-aged man named Liu Yun suddenly stood up.

This movement caused a person on the table next to him to tease: "Why, does this brother also have the ambition to rebel?"

"How can it? How can it be?"

Liu Yun smiled and waved his hands.

Fortunately, that person was just teasing and stopped asking.

"Ugh!"

Liu Yun turned around and sat down, looked at his fat legs, looked at the gray hair reflected in the turbid wine, thought about the ambition he set when he was young, and worked hard for half his life...

but.

Years wasted, half a life wasted, and nothing was achieved after all.

Thinking of this, Liu Yun couldn't help but feel sad: "There is a lofty ambition in the sky, but it is difficult to generate two wings of wind. The time is not good, but it is so bad, but it is so bad!"

"Xiaoer, give it to me again..."

He wished he could order a pot of good wine and get drunk, but when he touched the one or two yuan of salary that had just been issued in his arms, and looked at the worn-out gown that hadn't been washed for a long time, he finally changed his mind: "One more plate of fennel beans !"

……

"Fun! Interesting!"

Fang Rui looked at Liu Yun in the lobby below, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth: "The Tianding Jiaolong in Raozhou is struggling so far, this is something I didn't expect." '

In contrast, Yu Wen'an, who was rumored to be against the king's fate and was the pioneer of the king, has made some achievements. '

'This is indeed queer! '

He thought to himself, watching Liu Yun with the supernatural power of "Tian Zi Wang Qi", through the fog of the dragon's self-obscurity, he saw: the dragon manifested by Liu Yun's luck seemed to be suppressed by something, sluggish, and even his shape changed It's so illusory that it almost explodes.

"This is luck being taken away, fate is about to collapse?!"

Fang Rui's eyes flickered.

Although luck does not determine everything, theoretically speaking, as long as the anti-king can understand the world, be the first to attack quickly, and suppress the heavenly dragon; …

However, a theory is just a theory, how difficult it is to change one's fate against the sky!

"There must be a great external force, but where does this external force come from?"

'is either or……'

Fang Rui's heart moved, and he suddenly smiled: "In this Raozhou, the fate of the destiny dragon has been taken away, and the anti-king army has suddenly risen, the world is turned upside down, yin and yang are confused, it's really interesting!"

"My lord, this is the tea that the shopkeeper ordered as a gift. No money is required."

At this time, Xiao Er came in and brought a pot of green plum tea. He took a deep look at Fang Rui, a scholar in green clothes, and thought to himself, "This man is really temperamental, just like the person in the book. I saw him before. Among the people who have passed by, there is no one comparable, no wonder the shopkeeper ordered to form a good relationship...'

Next to her, Xin Xueer, who was playing, raised her head to look at the little girl, then lowered her head again, without any fuss.

Along the way, her uncle can always cheat food and drink... No, she is used to being "given food and drink" all the time.

Who knows, in order to avoid trouble, Fang Rui didn't overly suppress his forgetful temperament, which made countless people want to befriend and sell favors.

"good!"

Fang Rui nodded and tipped a dime casually.

"This……"

Xiao Er's face was full of joy, but he didn't dare to accept it, for fear of ruining his shopkeeper's idea of ​​forming a good relationship.

"It's nothing, since it's given to you, just take it."

Fang Rui naturally saw through Xiao Er's thoughts, and ordered, "I need your help with something. Have you seen that person? Please ask him to come over."

"Don't worry, my lord, this matter is on my shoulders!" Xiao Er patted his chest and went down.

Not long after.

"The nobleman called me?!"

Under Xiao Er's leadership, Liu Yun came to the cubicle suspiciously, and saw Fang Rui at a glance.

What kind of person is this?
Tranquil and distant, like Zhilan Yushu, obviously not very handsome, but his temperament is extremely good, like standing out from the crowd, can be distinguished from ordinary people at a glance, making people forget the commonplace at first sight.

'There are such people in the world? 'Liu Yun's face showed shock, and such a thought flashed in his mind.

"Liu Jun, please sit down." Fang Rui spread his hands.

"Thank you sir."

After all, Liu Yun was also very human, so he quickly collected his thoughts and sat down seriously.

"I just heard that Mr. Liu said that 'a man should be like this'. I found it interesting, so I invited Mr. Liu here to meet and talk about it."

"I see."

Liu Yunfei is not good at words, after greeting Fang Rui, he opened up the conversation.

in conversation.

Fang Rui learned: Liu Yun is a small banner official in the yamen, he is good at making friends, and has a lot of salary every month, but because of his generous treats, he disperses in the middle of every month, and often has to go to his brother's sister-in-law's house for dinner... …

'Although poor, one's heart is not restricted, one's vision is wide open, and making friends with people, this is the basic minion. 'He evaluated secretly in his heart.

"I wasted half my life and failed to achieve anything. I made my husband laugh at me." Liu Yun said, covering his face in shame.

"The difficulty is only for a while, and I look at Liu Jun, and there will be a bright future."

With a smile on Fang Rui's face, he suddenly waved his sleeves, and the cyan breath was extracted from the pot of green plum tea, submerged into another pot of wine, making it gurgling like boiling.

all of a sudden.

A strong aroma of wine, accompanied by the fresh and natural green plum scent, escapes.

"This this this..."

Liu Yun's eyes were staring straight, such a fairy trick was unheard of!
"The two of us, we will imitate the sages today, and talk about heroes by cooking wine with green plums. From Liu Jun's point of view, among the three southwest states, who can be a hero?"

Fang Rui poured the wine and asked.

'Imitate the sages, cook green plums and cook wine to talk about heroes?Why haven't I heard of this allusion?It seems that I still need to study more in the future! '

Liu Yun muttered in his heart, and said: "I heard that Cao Meng in Yuanzhou has always had great ambitions. He is a virtuous corporal. He took advantage of the bandit suppression and now occupies the land of two prefectures and three counties. Can he be a hero?"

"This person is honest on the outside and fake on the inside, with a suspicious personality, the most, he can be called a hero, not a hero." Fang Rui shook his head.

"I've heard that Li Yu of Liangzhou is open-minded and good at accepting advice. He jumped from a bandit to a prince all the way, and now occupies a prefecture and five counties. Can he be a hero?"

"This person is cowardly, thinks more than makes decisions, and cannot be a hero."

"I heard that Yu Wen'an in Raozhou was born with supernatural powers, and he has never been defeated so far. Now he has occupied the land of two prefectures and six counties. Can he be a hero?"

"This person has a lot of tyrannical actions and a wild personality. I expect that he may have a catastrophe, and the middle way will collapse. It is still unknown."

"This……"

Liu Yun smiled wryly, and finally proposed a candidate: "I also heard that there is a 'demon ancestor' Chu madman in Liangzhou. This person's origin is mysterious, unknown, and no one has seen his true face. You can't see any traces... It seems that all the rebellious troops in Liangzhou are behind the scenes... There is a method of exorcising beasts and forming an army, killing the ancestors of Yizhou's aristocratic family... Can this person be a hero?"

"This person... naturally deserves it."

Fang Rui nodded, and suddenly smiled secretly: "From my point of view, among the three states in the southwest, the only ones who can be called heroes are the 'Demon Patriarch' Chu Madman and Liu Jun!"

"How can I be a hero?" Liu Yun was startled, his wrist trembled and the wine spilled out.

"Liu Jun is indomitable and unswerving in his determination; 30 years have been the same, and he has not changed his original intention. How can he not be a hero?"

Fang Rui raised his head and looked straight into Liu Yun's eyes: "A man born in heaven and earth, how can he live in depression for a long time? From my point of view, Liu Jun, one day, he can be replaced by Yuwen An."

"Sir... sir, he drank too much."

"Then you might as well have another drink."

Fang Rui sipped his own drink, and after drinking another cup, he suddenly reached out and wiped his sleeve, took out a Panlong Jade Pendant, and threw it over.

This jade pendant is the same as the one given to Cao Meng. It contains a ray of the origin of the Chaos Dragon Ball, which is of great use to these dragons.

"Is this jade pendant for me?"

"Yes."

"Then thank you sir."

Liu Yun grabbed the jade pendant with joy on his face.

'The quality is good, the jade is very good, if it is sold, it must be sold for a hundred taels of silver...Of course, this gentleman must be an expert, and the gift must be extraordinary, so it must never be sold. '

Thinking to himself, he hastily stuffed the jade pendant into his bosom, and suddenly felt a warm current pouring into his body, making him energetic and vigorous, that feeling was like a thirsty fish getting water, and the rain meets the rain after a long drought.

"Good! Good!"

Fang Rui couldn't help smiling when he saw that the Qi Luck Dragon manifested above Liu Yun's head was stable in shape after getting his support.

"Oh, right!"

He seemed to think of something, and suddenly he stretched out his hand and took the sword from Liu Yun's waist in his hand: "Since Liu Jun accepts my jade pendant, let's repay it with this thing!"

——It's not about being greedy for something, or asking for quick success in return, but: if it's true as Fang Rui's previous guesses, this thing may be able to be used as a backhand.

"This……"

There was a look of pain on Liu Yun's face, but Fang Rui had already taken the sword, and knowing that there was no hope of returning, he waved his hand vigorously: "This sword is called 'Qing Xiao', I used it to cut A green snake, if Mister likes it, take it."

"Haha, good, one gift and one repayment, no loss, no debt, great kindness!"

Fang Rui clapped his hands and smiled.

Liu Yun saw that Fang Rui seemed to have the intention of leaving, so he hurriedly said: "Mr. is a godly man. I heard what you said today. If you hear the fairy music, please stay here. Please help me when I am in good times!"

Fang Rui smiled without saying a word.

"gone!"

He took Xin Xueer's hand and stood up suddenly.

"Hey, sir!"

Liu Yun hugged Fang Rui's thigh and refused to let go: "Sir doesn't want to stay, and I don't dare to embarrass him, but I'm struggling now, please help me again!"

'This face somehow reminds me of someone. '

Fang Rui thought to himself, then laughed and said, "Come on, I'll answer your request. In this spiritual ring, there is a plant of magic medicine and the "Dragon God Art". Let them all be given to you!"

Say it.

A flash of inspiration flashed around him, shaking Liu Yun away, and he had already taken Xin Xueer away.

"Sir! Sir!"

Liu Yun chased him out, the more he yelled, the faster Fang Rui walked, and he disappeared within a breath.

……

"what?!"

Fang Rui took Xin Xue'er out of the tavern, and suddenly stopped.

He caught a glimpse of a beautiful figure in white clothes in the alleyway in the distance, as cold and bright as the moon in the sky, and disappeared in a flash.
