Me and my Jianghu Tavern

This name has influenced the rivers and lakes for nearly ten years.

Many years ago, Dugu Ye opened the Weishui with a sword by the Weishui River and entered the realm of the Grand Master Sword Immortal. Since then, he has been in the number one position in the martial arts list, and no one can shake him.

On the banks of the Weishui River, he cut off the rolling yellow current with a single sword, and became his sword fairy Dugu Ye, who is also the first sword fairy in the rivers and lakes.

"In the early years, Dugu Ye was just an ordinary swordsman who couldn't be more ordinary. At that time, he didn't have much reputation in the world, and his greatest joy was to find someone to try his sword. At that time, all the swordsmen who were famous in the martial arts list fought against him, and some of them lost. They won, but they were all won back by Dugu Ye in the end."

"It looks like a pure swordsman." Zhang Ming said softly.

"Hey, boy, you are right. Dugu Ye is indeed the purest swordsman." Old man Huang continued, "It's because he is pure, he only has the sword in his eyes and nothing else, so he didn't get involved. To the muddy water in the rivers and lakes, I owe nothing."

"Then is there anything big about Dugu Ye?" Zhang Ming asked.

Old man Huang shook his head and said, "What could be the matter? Apart from cutting the Weishui River with a sword and turning him into a land sword fairy, it seems that there is no major event related to him."

"Dugu Ye's swordsmanship doesn't have any distracting thoughts. In my opinion, it's because he has no distracting thoughts in his heart that he can become the first sword fairy in this Jianghu." Old man Huang added another sentence.

"That's right." Zhang Ming said.

To be able to wander in this world of mortal world without getting involved in any affairs of the world, Dugu Ye is indeed a remarkable person.

"So how does Dugu Ye compare with Yan Bei'an?" Zhang Ming asked again.

"Yan Bei'an?" Old man Huang shook his head and said, "Yan Bei'an's sword is not clean, it's not as good as Dugu Ye."

"How do you know if you haven't played?" Zhang Ming said.

Old man Huang shook his head and denied, "The last time Yanshan tried the sword, Dugu Ye made a special trip to Yanshan because he heard about Yan Bei'an. That stop helped Yan Bei'an become a land sword fairy. In the future, these two people probably won't meet again, let alone do it again."

"Why?" Zhang Ming was a little puzzled.

"Beian won't compete with Dugu Ye again. He has already seen Dugu Ye's sword in Yanshan's sword test. The same Dugu Ye has no interest in Yan Bei'an anymore."

"There is a saying, different ways, don't conspire with each other." Old man Huang chuckled, and said, "Besides, you kid, do you still want to watch sword fairies fight?"

Zhang Ming nodded and said, "I really want to see it."

"You are honest, but you probably won't have this chance in your life." Old man Huang raised his head and took a sip of his wine, before continuing.

"To be honest, Yan Bei'an came into Taoism with the art of war, mastered the way of killing and attacking military strategists, and entered the Profound Realm overnight. He is also a genius who is rare in a hundred years. He can become a sword fairy, and I have nothing to say about the old man."

"He's a sword fairy, so he shouldn't be involved in this dispute, but he owed a favor in the early years, so it's much more troublesome to come here now." Old man Huang thought it was a bit interesting, and it was a new thing to talk about.

Zhang Ming raised his eyebrows, a little curious.

The old man Huang glanced at him, pretending to be mysterious: "You can't say it."

Chapter 113: Pei Yuan's Worries

In recent days, a fine wine named Monkey Wine suddenly appeared in Jian'an City. People who drank it said that it was brewed for the gods of the world, but it was passed around, and no one knew where the wine came from. .

In the beginning, the Sikong family entertained the guests, and Sikong Ming, the eldest son of the Sikong family, brought out the wine. After drinking it, everyone could not forget the taste of the monkey wine.

The story of the monkey wine gradually spread in the upper circles.

Later, some private wineries also got the news and wanted to buy wine. After all, the wine business has always been huge profits.

But Si Kongming never paid any attention to these people, and kept silent about the monkey wine. Later, this kind of wine also appeared in the hands of Mr. Pei, and those begging for wine found Pei Yuan again.

After going back and forth, half of the people knew about this monkey wine.

"That monkey wine is really a must."

"Have you drunk?"

"No, but hearing what they say is so vivid, it should be true."

"Then you talk shit."

"Can't you tell me yet?"

Naturally, some knight-errants have also heard about this matter, and usually talk about it like a small talk.

Pei Yuan was also a little annoyed these days, so he approached Gongsun Yu to discuss the monkey wine.

"Brother Sikong, do you think we should talk about it?" Pei Yuan said.

Si Kongming didn't care, so he said: "Say it, it's not that you can't say it, those people are looking for me for a drink, but where can I get the drink?"

"Besides, the wine in the tavern is not something that everyone can afford. Maybe the shopkeeper would like to have more people coming to drink."

"Go back and ask the shopkeeper." Pei Yuan thought about it, and told them that the wine was bought from Jianghu Tavern.

Sikong Ming shook his head and didn't speak. In his opinion, there was nothing to worry about, it was just wine.

Sikong Ming looked up at the sky and said, "It will be noon, right?"

"Ah."

"Just go to the tavern and sit down."

Pei Yuan's eyes lit up, "Let's go together."

The two arrived at the tavern outside the city without stopping.

At this time, there are already many people in the tavern, all of whom are acquaintances, and there are no new faces.

Si Kongming glanced at the old man sitting on the stone steps at the entrance of the tavern, but he didn't care, and walked in.

The same is true for Pei Yuan. Although they don't know who the person sitting at the door of the tavern is, they don't ask too many questions, and they get used to it once they come and go.

Song Shusheng greeted the two immediately when he saw them, "Yo, here we come."

They drank together on weekdays, so they naturally became acquainted.

Pei Yuan and Sikong Ming each ordered a jug of wine and sat with the crowd.

"Recently, I'm so worried." Pei Yuan sat down and began to complain.

Gongsun Yu threw two peanuts into his mouth and asked, "Why?"

"It's nothing, it's just because of the monkey wine, some people in the city come to ask me every day, it's annoying." Pei Yuan said.

Scholar Song was a little puzzled, and asked, "What's the trouble? They want monkey wine, so you can tell them directly?"

Pei Yuan shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid that if there are more people in the tavern, it will cause a lot of trouble for the shopkeeper."

"Ha, you're thinking too much." Song Shusheng waved his hand, he really didn't know why Pei Yuan was worried about this.

"Exactly." This time, even Wu Manzi agreed with the scholar's words, obviously Pei Yuan was thinking too much.

Gongsun Yu poured a glass of wine to moisten his mouth, and said to Pei Yuan: "You underestimate brother Zhang, besides, there are a few of us, and brother Gu is also a first-class master of the rivers and lakes, so there is no trouble. "

Gu Qingshan nodded, he already knew Zhang Ming, so it was just a small favor.

Just when Zhang Ming brought the wine, Gu Qingshan stopped him and asked, "Brother Zhang, tell me."

"What?" Zhang Ming asked in confusion.

"Monkey wine, recently spread in Jian'an City, everyone buys this wine, we plan to spread the news about the tavern." Gu Qingshan said.

Zhang Ming was still a little puzzled, whether it has anything to do with him: "Then what?"

Seeing this reaction, Gu Qingshan understood, waved his hand, and said: "Look, I'll just say Brother Zhang has no objection."

"Then I'll tell those people tomorrow that they've come to block my door every day, and I'm so annoying." Even though Pei Yuan said that, he still looked scrupulous.

"The scholar is right, you just think too much." Si Kongming patted him on the shoulder.

Pei Yuan shook his head and explained: "Actually, it's not true. Speaking of which, I like the atmosphere in the tavern from the bottom of my heart. It's just us. We come to the tavern to sit and drink two glasses of wine and chat a few words on weekdays when we have nothing to do. I'm afraid that when there are more people, there will be a lot less things in the tavern."

When Gongsun Yu and the others heard this, they also understood what Pei Yuan was worried about.

"You're right." Gu Qingshan rubbed his chin, this is indeed a problem.

After Zhang Ming understood it, he said, "I don't think it matters. The tavern is just drinking and chatting. As for the people who drink, it doesn't matter. It's just drinking. And look at Brother Stone. If you knew they were robbers from the beginning, wouldn't you? You will look down on them, it’s just what you think.”

"It's a hero from the green forest!!" Brother Stone said in unison.

Everyone looked at each other and smiled, "Hahaha..."

"It's better for the shopkeeper to understand clearly, so it should be clear!"

"Come!"

Everyone chatted and laughed, raised their glasses and toasted, and the problem was considered solved.

Zhang Ming also drank a glass of wine.

The drinkers are lovely, that's what a pub should be like.

Pei Yuan was worried that the atmosphere of the tavern would be broken, so he had scruples, which showed that he really cared about the tavern.

The sense of belonging from the heart is not only for Pei Yuan, but also for everyone in the tavern.

Perhaps today passed while joking, but everyone suddenly understood the sense of belonging in their hearts.

In fact, the taste of the wine is secondary, and the most important thing is the drinking buddies in the tavern.

There is no separation, no distinction between high and low, and people can speak freely, this is a tavern.

sunset.

"Come again tomorrow!"

"Okay, come back tomorrow."

"Where is Brother Stone going? No, he's going to be a hero in the forest, right?"

"Just to see."

"Ha ha ha ha."

"See you later, see you later."

Everyone left the tavern one by one. Pei Yuan drank a lot today, probably because he was happy. A pot of generals got him drunk, and he was carried back by Si Kongming in the end.

In the end, only Gu Qingshan hadn't left yet.

As always, Xiaoqi lay down at the door of the tavern to take a nap, just in time to bask in the sun.

Zhang Ming got up and sat in Gu Qingshan's seat, and said, "Miss Linglong is not with you today?"

"It's not like she's free every day, come, Brother Zhang, drink." Gu Qingshan smiled, took a glass and poured Zhang Ming a glass of wine.

"Speaking of which, you are the only one who has the most leisure time." Zhang Ming said.

"Really?" Gu Qing Shan thought about it.

He has been quite free lately. Since he returned to Jian'an City, he seems to have nothing to do. The court has not bothered him recently, and there is nothing related to him in the world, so he is naturally leisurely.

"It's good to be idle."

Gu Qingshan said something, raised his wine glass, clinked with Zhang Ming, and drank with his head raised.

It's better to be idle.

Chapter 114: Killing and punishing the heart

A table, drinkers and shopkeepers, and a cat taking a nap at the entrance of the tavern, the lively tavern suddenly became deserted.

Gu Qingshan stayed until now and never left, he just didn't know where to go, he just had nothing to do all day long.

In the past, he had many things to do, but most of them were things he found by himself.

"You should find something to do." Zhang Ming made a suggestion.

"What are you looking for? Are you going to block the road and rob with Brother Stone?" Gu Qingshan said with a wry smile. He also wanted to find something to do, but what was he looking for?

Zhang Ming thought for a while, what Gu Qingshan said is not bad, Gu Qingshan is a man of the quack, and he was hunted down by the court, he has recently relaxed a little bit, but these years he is used to being free and undisciplined, so asking him to find something to do probably won’t interest him .

Gu Qingshan shook his head and sighed, drank a glass of General Xing, if he hadn't been bored all day, he wouldn't come to the tavern every day.

Compared with the dullness in Jian'an City, he is still more willing to come to the tavern to talk.

Gu Qingshan suddenly asked: "Brother Zhang, how about staying in your tavern for one night today?"

"Why?" Zhang Ming was a little puzzled.

"The tourist who wants to drink is drunk, I can't go back alone." Gu Qingshan said.
