Chapter 207 Cup Bow Snake Shadow(1/2)

When Xiao Jinyan woke up, his head was split. He looked around and was still in the wine cellar. A scent of wine came to his nose and was filled with mellow fragrance. At some point, a row of wine jars were placed in front of the middle-aged Confucian scholar. He was holding the wine glass and drinking it slowly.

Xiao Jinyan said strangely, "Aren't those twenty jars of wine already drunk? Where did the wine come again?"

The middle-aged Confucian scholar said, "I was just going to take you away. I remembered the two guards saying that there were 100,000 taels of fine wine hidden in the wine cellar. Although I had not tasted all the fine wines in the world, the twenty jars of wine just now were only 1,000 taels of silver. So I searched everywhere and found these ten jars in a dark lattice."

Xiao Jinyan scratched his head, "What do you mean, we just drank fake wine?"

"Although it's not fake wine, it's not far away." The middle-aged Confucian scholar sent the wine jar forward, "How about it? I've recovered, should I come to two more jars?"

Xiao Jinyan's mouth was dry and his whole body was hot. Venus was rising in front of him. He just wanted to jump into the river to take a cold shower. How could he swallow a sip of wine? Thinking about how he almost died of drunkenness for a few jars of fake wine just now. He was angry.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar poured a bowl of wine and said slowly: "This jar of Jiannanchun is a thirty-year-old Tianyi Laojiao. The wine has a strong aroma and a strong aroma. It melts in the mouth. It only produces more than 100 kilograms a year. Half of them are sent to the palace. It would be a pity if you don't drink it."

The essence of wine lies in the cellar. The older the cellar, the more the taste is. The Tianyi Lao Cellar in Jiannanchun started in the Southern Qi Dynasty and has been around for more than 1,200 years. The wine stored in the cellar can be sold for 1,000 taels per catty.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar poured another glass of wine, "This bowl of ancient well tribute wine inherits the Jiuji winemaking method, uses Wuji Water and Peach Blossom Spring Qu, the base wine used for fifty years and ten years of mixing. It is sweet and mellow in the mouth and has a long aftertaste. It is known as the peony in the wine. It is a pity that you don't drink it."

Every time a middle-aged Confucian scholar poured out a bowl of wine, he would tell the origin and how to make the wine. Xiao Jinyan was so greedy that he was very moved. He wanted to drink another bowl, but his body tried his best to resist.

Xiao Jinyan said, "I can't drink it, so why don't we move it away and go back and taste it slowly?"

The middle-aged Confucian scholar shook his head and said, "We drink wine into our stomachs. This is called wine tasting. Moving it outside the wine cellar will not be a steal?"

Xiao Jinyan was speechless. This sentence was exactly what he said not long ago. Now that he was brought by a middle-aged Confucian scholar, he could not find a reason to refute it.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar drank a few more bowls, put down the wine bowl, sealed the jar, and said, "There is also a saying in the thief, and today is worth the trip, haha!"

Xiao Jinyan said, "I feel a little loss."

The middle-aged Confucian scholar stood up, his figure shaking, and his face became drunk. He patted Xiao Jinyan on the shoulder and said, "It's not too late, we should go back!"

The two of them staggered and came out of the wine cellar. When the night wind blew, the wine surged into their hearts and became more drunk. They were about to use their light skills to leave, but suddenly they found two old men sitting in the pavilion in front.

Xiao Jinyan was shocked and leaped onto the wine cellar plaque with the middle-aged Confucian scholar and looked at the pavilion. Under the hazy night, the two men were wearing black clothes and playing chess. One of the old men poked out his right hand and a chess piece was in his hand. He was about to fall before he could fall, and hesitated, as if he was in a mystery.

A quarter of an hour passed.

The old man in the game did not move at all, and seemed to have noticed the two of them.

Half an hour passed.

The two still remained motionless.

Not only Xiao Jinyan, but even the middle-aged Confucian scholar was secretly shocked. With his Tongxuan skills, he could sense any movement within a hundred miles. However, these two people were playing chess in the pavilion, which was only ten feet away from them, but he did not have any sense.

What surprised him even more was that the two old men playing chess did not have any internal force fluctuations. Although he was known as the best in the world, it was just for the secular world. Not to mention the sword cultivators and sword guards who suppressed the world's Wuzong on Shujian Mountain, the old monsters who lived in seclusion in the second pavilion, the three sects, and four sects, took out one of them, which was enough for him to drink a pot, not to mention that there were two in front of him.

Unexpectedly, the little Yinyang City was a crouching tiger and hidden dragon. If it were the past, he would still have the confidence to escape with his mysterious skills, but today he had a night of wine with this kid. If he wanted to fight, it would be a lot of danger.

That night, he complained to His Majesty Nanling. He made a suggestion to His Majesty to ensure peace for thousands of years of Ming Dynasty, and then he went to Yinyang alone.

A middle-aged Confucian scholar felt a sense of sadness.

He died before he could succeed, which made the hero cry.

"Drinking alcohol will make a mistake!" he whispered, "These two people are not against you and me."

Xiao Jinyan was also cold. He knew that this middle-aged Confucian scholar was very skilled in martial arts, and with his string power, he could not sense his true realm. He said this, so he might have to throw his life here tonight.

Another hour passed.

The old man in the game still did not move. The more they did not move, the more scared they were. Not to mention it, the middle-aged Confucian scholar could not do it.

Xiao Jinyan had already felt a murderous intent in the back of his neck. This murderous intent surged out from the chessboard, as if the black and white chess turned into a Zhuxian formation, which was about to crush the two of them here.

The sound of roosters crowing in the distance.

It was getting dark and a sound of footsteps came.

A fat man in gorgeous clothes got up early. Before coming to the wine cellar, he saw two guards still lying on the ground and sleeping soundly. He went forward and kicked him angrily, "Chang San, Chang Liu, I asked you to come to guard the wine cellar, not to let you sleep!"

The two woke up and sued repeatedly, "Shopkeeper Cao, we were wrong."

Manager Cao snorted coldly, "Why, I have defected to the Dragon Gang, my words are not working, right?" He pointed to the pavilion and said, "The two stone sculptures in the pavilion are for you to move away. It's been three days since you haven't moved yet. If you can do it, do it. If you don't, get out. We Li Ji Chen Bao, don't raise idle people!"

The two men hid behind the plaque rubbed their eyes and then looked at them. There was no peerless master, but they were just two sculptures!

"ah!"

Manager Cao pushed open the wine cellar door and let out a heart-wrenching cry.

...

The two of them said nothing all the way. They returned to Li Bufan's house and fell asleep, never mentioning what happened last night.

When I woke up, it was already noon.

Xiao Jinyan heard the sound of swords coming from the courtyard and pushed the door out, but Li Bufan was practicing swords. He didn't have to be on duty today, and the time he practiced swords was longer than before.

Li Bufan has no internal strength, but his arm strength is extremely strong, and a long sword swings it to make the wind come true. Xiao Jin looked at it for a moment and saw that his moves were rough, and in the eyes of experts, there were flaws everywhere.

Li Bufan practiced for a while, and when he saw Xiao Jinyan, he put away his knife. He was already sweating profusely and said, "Brother Xiao, did you sleep well last night?"

After coming to Yinyang City, Xiao Jinyan did not use the pseudonym of Tang Dabao, but intersected the two with their real name. He said awkwardly, "It's okay, I just came to fall and slept for a while."

Li Bufan said, "Yesterday you promised to give me some advice on my skills. It is better to have a day than to choose a day. How about the two of us discuss it?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "Why don't you have a meal first?"

Li Bufan slapped his forehead, "How could I forget this? It's been a bit tight recently. I usually don't eat breakfast. I'll make it for you now!"

Xiao Jinyan waved his hand, "No need, if you don't eat, don't eat it. Anyway, I don't eat it often."

"Then look at the knife!"

Li Bufan slashed with a knife. Although his body was fast and his strength was sufficient, there were flaws everywhere in Xiao Jinyan's eyes. He strode to the right. Li Bufan changed his moves to attack the right side. Xiao Jinyan waved his elbow forward and knocked him to the ground.

Li Bufan shouted strangely, "Look at this move again."

More than ten moves in a row, and before they could be used up, they were easily cracked by Xiao Jinyan, falling down, knocking down, and taking down, with many different ways.

However, Li Bufan had a very high understanding and learned from his mistakes. After finishing a set of sword techniques, he did it again. Xiao Jinyan used his original moves again, but Li Bufan could already change his moves to deal with it.

"Jizheng!"

"Weiyang!"

"Ugly!"

Suddenly, three sounds came from Li Bufan. Hearing this, Li Bufan attacked with the long sword and forced Xiao Jinyan to take a step back. Li Bufan was overjoyed and said, "Thank you for your advice, senior."

The middle-aged Confucian scholar nodded, "I have a good understanding, but I have a pity that my internal strength is inherently lacking, but I have a good seedling."

Li Bufan said, "Senior, don't make a judgment too early. I, Li Bufan, will one day become the world's number one master of swordsmanship."

Seeing that he was full of ambition, Xiao Jinyan remembered what he said when he first met Zhao Langjiang, "I, Zhao Langjiang, will be the best swordsman in the world in the future."

At that time, Zhao Lianjiang was seriously injured and was dying, but the heroic spirit in his heart was somewhat similar to that of Li Bufan in front of him.

Xiao Jinyan met the middle-aged Confucian scholar and said, "Senior, did you sleep well last night?"

The middle-aged Confucian scholar showed a embarrassed look and snorted coldly, "What do you say?" and said, "If you spread the story last night, you will regret the rest of your life."

Xiao Jinyan said, "Last night? What happened? I drank too much and I don't remember it."

The middle-aged Confucian scholar said that this kid is above the Tao.

Li Bufan remembered that the senior didn't eat yet and said, "I'll go and make some wine for you later!"

The two of them kept calling him, "No need, it's not advisable to drink today."

Li Bufan stopped, "Anyway, there is nothing wrong today. You two are just here. Why don't you take you to take you around and experience our hidden spirit!"

The middle-aged Confucian scholar said, "Li Qiuyi is dead, there is no other atmosphere in Yinyang! You two will go, I want to go out to do something." He turned around and walked out of the door and said to Xiao Jinyan, "After an hour, wait for me in the east of the city!"

...

Yinyang City South.

Jixiang Furry Store has been operating here for 20 years. The boss’s surname is Xu. Over the years, he has been fishing for three days and drying the net for two days. He always closes his business. Although he is in a bustling area in the city, his business is very ordinary.

However, no one knows that this is a branch of the Bimu organization in Yinyang, and Boss Xu is also a core figure in the organization.

In the battle of Reed Marsh, Bibei Thirteen inexplicably encountered an ambush from a master, which damaged three people. After this battle, Yuwen Gui suddenly received an order to stop chasing the Archer and rushed straight to Yinyang to wait for his order.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar came to the fur shop, as if he had changed someone else. Yue Zhiyuan stepped into the shop.

Everyone led by Yuwen Gui fell to the ground one after another, "I have seen the Grand Governor!"

Yuwen Tianlu slowly walked past everyone and came to the lobby, "No gift."

Yuwen Gui kneeled down and couldn't get up, "Yuwen Gui was not doing anything well, so please punish the Grand Superintendent."

Yuwen Tianlu waved his hand, "I asked you to stop, what's the crime?" He sat on the Grand Master's chair, "What's the battle in Western Xinjiang?"

Yuwen Gui said, "According to news from General Liang, in the past few months, Chu Bieliguo has sent 100,000 troops to Hengduan Mountain in accordance with the alliance to confront our Western army. Chu Bieli took this opportunity to get rid of the power of the old emperor, dispatch troops and gather military power in his hands. As the general expected, he was not a good-for-nothing lamp. In the matter of Lai Ridan, he tasted the sweetness and would definitely not be willing to be a chess piece at the mercy of others."

The Ming Dynasty confronted Hengduan Mountain in the Western Chu, which was originally intended by Yuwen Tianlu, but the Western Chu found an excuse to invade the West Eleven Guards of Zucchinikou. The director of the Wei Dynasty, Lai Ridan, disappeared for no reason, but his expectations were made. For this reason, Yuwen Tianlu sent Yuwen Shuang to investigate the matter.

"What's wrong with Shuang'er?"

"A month ago, the eldest lady went to the Western Eleventh Guards, and there is no news yet."

Yuwen Tianlu skipped this topic and asked about the deployment of the Western Army. He said, "How is the situation in Yinyang City?"
