Smile and swing sword

On the first day of the festival, Night Street was crowded with people. Those who were less courageous only dared to play a few games in front of the temporary stalls outside the shop, and those who were desperate would squeeze their heads and go into the buildings and pavilions.

Today Mei Xianzi was followed by the hot girl Han Yan who gave a lesson to casual cultivators in the restaurant that day. After discussing with the four of them, they all felt that it was too early. Just find a place to test the water at random, and then entered the first restaurant middle.

The lobby on the first floor used to be a place where people drank a lot of wine, and there were three square tables that formed a long strip. The person in front jumped up with all his shoulders, and before he could see what was going on inside, he hurriedly threw the primordial stone into it.

When Chi Shen saw it, he wanted to shake his head, and he didn't want to approach him for half a step. His eyebrows almost frowned as soon as he heard the noisy voice.Mei Xianzi glanced sideways, and thought to herself, even if a beautiful person frowns and curls his lips, his appearance will not be damaged in the slightest. This Yun Shen's appearance is also the best among the people I have seen in my life. This boy Xiang Tianyou can't fight that way idea?

Xiang Tianyou pulled Chi Shen slightly, and lowered his head slightly because of the loud noise in the arena, and said, "Let's go directly to the third floor, and don't join in the fun here."

Only then did Chi Shen show his face, and when he went upstairs, his ears were much cleaner. This place is different from the lobby, it is a wing room, the inside of the closed door has already been gambled, and those with the open door can come in and out at will.

Xiang Tianyou picked the nearest one, there was already a shop assistant waiting inside, and when someone stepped into the room, he turned around and closed the door tightly.

Dozens of empty white porcelain bowls have been placed on the round table in the house, and Chi Shen glanced at them, 24 in total.On the other side of the round table sat a middle-aged man with a mustache. His figure was lean and his eyes were bright. He stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation.

Mei Xianzi glanced at the tall wooden stand full of wine bottles, big and small, behind the man, shook her head and said, "Gambling wine? I'm wearing a mask, so it's inconvenient to drink. I'll let you go first for this game."

Xiang Tianyou didn't refuse, and took two steps forward to sit on the vacant round stool. After sitting down, the mustache man explained the rules: "Half of the 24 bowls of wine are poisonous wine, and you have to choose six of them once you smell it. Bowl of wine made from spirit fruit, if the judgment is wrong, you have to choose a bowl to drink, if you choose the right one, you have to invite a friend who came with you to serve you personally, and you can’t use any other means to try the wine Half of these six fruit wines are highly poisonous, and the other half are just the corresponding antidote, that is to say, there can be no mistakes in the order of placing the wines, but if there is anything wrong, I am afraid it will kill you."

Chi Shen took a deep breath, and immediately said, "This rule is too deceptive, so you don't need to gamble."

The rules of this wine gambling are too vicious. If the first person chooses the right fruit wine, it shows that he has a lot of knowledge in this field, but the second round is to place his life and death on others. It is too risky to think about it. One is not good. It will also be resentful.

Seeing Chi Shen's concern, the man with a mustache smiled instead: "That's wrong. There is no such thing as bullying or not bullying in the rules of gambling. It depends on whether the two parties are willing. The little brother is too impatient and timid. You haven't revealed the prize of the game yet, so you're going to run away?"

Chi Shen ignored his rhetoric and focused on persuading Xiang Tianyou: "Brother... I think it's better to go to another place to have a look first."

Xiang Tianyou was quite interested, he signaled to Chi Shen to be calm, and asked the man, "Let me see if what you gave is worth my time."

Seeing the fish hooked, the man laughed, and a small black bottle landed on the palm of his right hand while turning his hands. It was about two inches high, exquisite and compact, and there was a shapeless golden trace on the body of the bottle, which was very chic and agile.

"It contains the blood of the nine-headed crane that has been cultivated according to the state of mind. The nine-headed crane feeds on the poison of the world and can refine the essence of the poison and turn it into pure energy for its advanced use. The medicine of this blood The effect is better than any detoxification panacea, panacea can only drive away the poison, but the blood of the nine-headed crane can refine the poison and turn it into your own use, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone!"

Mei Xianzi heard the words and said, "Bring it here and let me have a look."

The bearded man was not afraid of her mischief, so he raised his hand and threw the golden bottle over. After the inspection, Mei Xianzi couldn't put it down, and her gesture was obviously very happy: "I never expected to meet such a treasure here, the nine-headed crane to which this bottle of blood belongs, I have just entered the late stage of the Shun mental state. When I was young in the peak, my master once took in a patient. I am addicted to crane blood, and it is unbearable not to drink blood and take poison for a day."

Han Yan exclaimed: "There are so many wonders about the size of the world! But this is enough to show the charm of the blood of the nine-headed crane."

Mei Xianzi put the vial in the center of the round table, rushed to Tianyou and nodded, "If you're not sure, then substitute someone else to gamble. Now I'm interested again."

Xiang Tianyou didn't look at her, and said to Chi Shen: "You will arrange wine for me later."

Chi Shen felt panicked, the bearded man was so shrewd, he had called his assistants to take down the small wine jars from the wooden stand one by one, and poured them into white porcelain bowls.

The wines were clear, all top grade, the waiter picked them up one by one and placed them under Xiang Tianyou's nose, if he shook his head at Xiang Tianyou, he would put them back to the original place, if he nodded, he would put them out separately.Xiang Tianyou's conclusions were not rigid at all, and he picked out six bowls of fruit wine in just one cup of tea.

Seeing this, the bearded man stroked his beard and smiled, took down the rest of the wine bowls, leaving only the spirit fruit wine Xiang Tianyou had selected on the table, clapped his hands and congratulated him and said: "The guest officer is really good at picking something, and I will trouble you next time." This little brother has a priority."

Chi Shen put his hands on the side of his clothes, wiped the fine sweat on his palms secretly, took a step forward, gritted his teeth and said, "Poop, defecate, but I have a merciless request, I hope you can accommodate me."

"It doesn't hurt to listen to it."

"If I'm right, everything is easy to talk about. If I'm wrong, but I hope to let my brother drink spiritual wine to detoxify. I'm willing to drink it on his behalf. Life for life."

Xiang Tianyou's complexion sank, the clear color in his eyes turned into chaos, the bottom was invisible, and he said angrily: "Nonsense! Do you change the rules as you please? Since I believe in you, you should think carefully about how to arrange the wine properly. , instead of questioning yourself before doing it, and scatter your mind on superfluous thoughts!"

After Chi Shen was hit by the first sentence, he realized a lot, and couldn't help but shamefully said: "My brother taught... me, so I don't think about other things." After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and concentrated his energy completely On the six bowls of wine, carefully distinguish them.

It's a pity that after looking at it for a long time, the bottom of the bowl was almost pierced, but there was nothing to see. Chi Shen got too close for a while in a hurry, and the tip of his nose was immediately stained with a little wine, and a voice suddenly sounded in his head: "Test the main thing!" Ingredient, 300-year-old hollow fruit, the heart festered after taking it, and died without treatment, it is highly poisonous."

Chi Shen was stunned at first, and then thought that this must be the book of Materia Medica opened by Moshi. Kibe rolled up the effect, as long as there is this, Xiang Tianyou's life will be safe!

Thinking of Chi Shen's ecstasy, it was hard to restrain, and he laughed loudly, and he laughed several times before he stopped. If he hadn't seen his clear eyes, Xiang Tianyou would have suspected that this person was crazy.

Since he couldn't keep his composure, Chi Shen simply let go of his emotions and let others guess. In fact, the bearded man has been secretly observing Chi Shen's movements. He has participated in this gambling game for nine years this year. He had already cultivated his sharp eyes, and any act of sneaking into the wine could not be hidden from his eyes, but now he really didn't see what tricks Chi Shen was playing, and saw that after standing there for a while with the tip of his nose wet, he suddenly showed that he was sure of everything. confidence to come.

Chi Shen was too tense before, but now that the big stone in his heart is gone, it is rare to show some liveliness that he did not have on weekdays. He smiled and said to Xiang Tianyou: "Brother, I have figured out the key to distinguishing, you can drink it at ease later!"

Ever since Xiang Tianyou knew Chi Shen, he had never seen him show such a completely relaxed and slightly complacent smile, and finally bit the tip of his tongue lightly, barely suppressing the urge to raise his hand and lock him into his arms to caress wantonly, Looking at Jun Xiaosheng, who was half bent over for the convenience of speaking, he said, "When did I worry about you?"

Chi Shen smiled even more when he heard the words, and put his fingertips into the wine bowls to check one by one. In an instant, he messed up the order and put them back again. The bearded man was dumbfounded, and subconsciously questioned: "This is impossible! You have cheated and used tricks!"

If we talk about means, it can be considered Chi Shen's own ability, or not, but no matter what it is, ink stone is not a thing in this world, and Chi Shen definitely does not believe that the bearded man can see the flaws, so he speaks out with an astonishing momentum "Don't say I don't have it, even if I do, I win if you don't see it! When my brother has drunk these six bowls of wine, you have to give up the blood of the nine-headed crane as promised."

Xiang Tianyou laughed, stood up and took the vial directly into his arms, pulled Chi Shen, who was showing a puzzled expression, back slightly, half of his body stood in front of him, looked sideways at the bearded man and said: " As the owner of the wine shop, he has long been familiar with all the wines in the jars, and he will know the outcome when he sees the order you put out, so he suspects you of cheating."

The bearded man woke up as if he had just woken up from a dream. He cupped his fists with a wry smile and said, "It turns out that the friends of the immortals are all the generation of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. They are disrespectful and disrespectful. Sifang Restaurant is willing to gamble and admit defeat. Ah Xiang, please send these guest officials downstairs."

When the four of them left the building, Mei Xianzi looked at Chi Shen and said, "I really can't see it, it seems that the one who pretended to be a pig to eat a tiger, cheated and stole was not Xiang Tianyou, but the 'good apprentice' he brought out. .”

Chi Shen helped Xiang Tianyou win a gamble. This kind of exciting experience is unprecedented. Under the excitement, the two blush on his cheeks linger, and he has a lot of confidence in developing a close relationship with Xiang Tianyou in the future. Yan immediately raised his eyebrows and stared, and said in a serious manner: "Mei Xianzi, I know you are a good friend of my brother, but you should have a degree of humor when you hurt others. My brother has a good temper and doesn't like to care about others, but I am not a soft-hearted person who can bear gossip!"

"Pfft..." Mei Xianzi laughed muffled in the mask, Han Yan shrugged her shoulders and turned her face away to look elsewhere, when Xiang Tianyou turned his head to look at him in the deep pool, he instantly put away his face, showing a helpless expression With a condescending expression, he persuaded: "Forget it, she is a vulgar fairy, arguing with her is like a scholar meeting a bandit. It's useless to talk loudly, and she will feel bored if you ignore her."

Chi Shen realized later, his face turned redder, and he secretly said angrily, I was so stupid, I was so overwhelmed that I said something like that, and I took Fairy Mei's joke as the truth, hey, when will I be able to cultivate to my home, is it not my brother? shame on the front...
