Chapter 117: The Drunken Master
The wind in Luoyang City is not unfamiliar, and he was once a member of the Iron Flag Alliance. The only time spent in the gang's days was in Luoyang City.
The boss said the restaurant, although never heard of it, but several landmark buildings near the restaurant helped to indicate the direction of the meal, and the wind arrived at the designated restaurant. The second floor of the restaurant, where ordinary people like to sit, was easily reached, and then the boss and others who were eating and drinking were easily seen.
The boss was holding a wine glass and talking loudly, with the wind whistling in everyday life as a basis for understanding him. It can be concluded that the boss has had too much to drink. Also present were Hua Mantian and Xiao Hongchen, who hadn't been seen for a long time. Xiao Yao was sitting with a girl named Yue Rou, their demeanor very intimate, presumably due to the catalysis of alcohol.
The first thing he saw was flowers all over the sky, and he immediately shouted loudly to summon the wind, his voice so loud that it could be heard throughout Luoyang. The wind guessed that he had also drunk enough.
The wind whispers with a smile and walks over, standing beside Lao Da.
The boss seemed to have just noticed Feng Xiao Xiao's arrival, he looked at her with a slanted gaze and after a while, he said: "Where did this scarecrow come from?"
The wind was howling and the atmosphere was tense, but at the dinner table, there were loud bursts of laughter. Among them, Xiao Yao laughed the most exaggeratedly, causing the dishes, plates, cups, bowls, chopsticks, and spoons in front of him to clatter loudly. He gasped for breath and said: "What straw man? Boss, you're really drunk!" The crowd followed with more laughter. Xiao Yao continued: "That's a person wearing a straw hat!" Only then did the wind realize that Xiao Yao was also quite drunk.
Fortunately, Yue Rou, who was beside Xiao Yao, was awake. She pushed Xiao Yao and said: "It's your friend!" Then Xiao Yao also looked at Feng Xiang with a slanted eye and muttered: "Which friend?"
The wind blew gently as he snatched off his grass hat with a flourish and glared at him, saying: "Take a good look!"
The boss and Xiao Yao opened their eyes wide and exclaimed in unison: "It's you!"
The wind whispered helplessly: "It's really me!" Fortunately, the two were not yet drunk enough to fail to recognize themselves.
But the boss immediately said a sentence that made Feng Xiao Xiao thoroughly disappointed, the boss asked: "How did you come?" He actually forgot that it was himself who called Feng Xiao Xiao over just a few minutes ago, and Feng Xiao Xiao really wondered how he told himself the correct address.
The wind was blowing, and it was estimated that the two of them were now in a state where they couldn't tell what connection there was between Longyan and Xiyu Sword. On the side, Huaman Tian shouted loudly: "What are you standing for? Sit down!" As he spoke, he pulled Feng Xiao Xiao to sit beside him.
At the same time, a wine cup appeared in front of Feng Xiao Xiao as if by magic, and the wine cup was also magically filled with wine. Feng Xiao Xiao took a look and found that all these magical tricks were performed by Xiāo Hóng Chén.
Xiao Hongchen only said one word: "Drink!"
Feng Xiao Xiao furrowed his brow, relating to his own situation, and used a large amount of ink to elaborate on why he couldn't drink, as well as the adverse effects that would occur after drinking. However, Xiao Hong Chen only needed one sentence to blow all of Feng Xiao Xiao's excuses to smithereens, saying: "This is just a game!"
The wind was blowing, and he had to rephrase himself. He combined it with the game, saying that he had just been seriously injured, and if he drank again, even in the game, it would be very painful. This half-true, half-false fact emphasized that this pain could be completely avoided as long as he didn't drink.
Xiao Hongchen finally let go of Feng Xiao, but Hua Mantian became interested again. He insisted on seeing where Feng Xiao was injured and whether it was as serious as he said.
The wind was blowing, and he could only turn around to let him see his back. He was worried that the injury would recover too quickly in the game, so he would be like a liar.
Hua Man Tian lay on the back of Feng Xiao Xiao for a long time, studying. Xiao Hong Chen asked anxiously beside him: "How is it? Is it heavy?" Feng Xiao Xiao was also very anxious, he eagerly hoped to get a definite answer from Hua Man Tian's mouth. But instead heard Hua Man Tian say: "I haven't found it yet!"
The suspicious gaze landed on Feng Xiao Xiao, who hastily said: "I was stabbed in the back with a knife, will I recover faster if I use Golden Creation Medicine? It's just a game!"
Hua Man Tian stopped checking and asked: "Then can't you use your martial arts now?"
The wind whispers and nods repeatedly.
Hua Man Tian solemnly said to Xiao Hong Chen: "Indeed, you have suffered a severe injury!"
Xiao Hongchen nodded and also very seriously said to Feng Xiao: "You are now heavily injured, you can't drink!"
The wind was howling and laughing, but somehow it suddenly became that he himself had asked to drink. The four of them were already drunk and staggering about, and the wind asked another person at the table who was still sober: "How did they end up drinking so much?"
Yu Rong said helplessly, "Originally we were going to go leveling, but they said the snow was too big and it wasn't fun to level in, so we waited for the snow to get smaller. We came over to eat and drink while waiting for the snow to stop, but the snow just didn't stop, and neither did they... and that's how they ended up getting drunk like this!"
"The wind whispers: 'If they were in Xiangyang, they would never get drunk!'"
Yu Rong didn't say anything else, and the two of them watched as the four people talked loudly and laughed incoherently.
The wind was blowing and he couldn't help but admit that this trip was in vain. He stood up to bid farewell, and Yu Rong asked: "What did you come here for?"
"It's nothing important, I just want to gather some small intelligence!"
Yu Rong's interest was piqued and she asked, "What little news? Maybe I know!"
The wind whispered and told the story of Longyan Xiyu Sword.
"It's this matter! Old Jianghu people all know it, you should also know it!"
Feng Xiao Xiao explained: "Boss and Xiang Yao have both fought against Long Yan, I'd like to ask if they were affected by the Washing Jade Sword when they fought him!"
"What a pity you've come at the wrong time!"
The wind was clear that it had indeed come to the wrong place, and in the time it took to say a few words with Yu Rong, the alcohol concentration in the bodies of the four people had clearly increased again. The four were now arguing over a dish of fish that had just been brought to the table, and the topic of discussion was the legendary rule of the wine table: "Head three tail four belly seven back eight!" Everyone said that the head was facing their own, and when the wind saw this dish of fish, it was a red-braised carp with no fish head at all. The wind became even more convinced that it had come in vain.
Just as the four of them were quarreling loudly, and the wind was gloomy and ready to leave, a wine jar suddenly flew in from somewhere and landed right in the center of the table. In an instant, dishes and wine flew everywhere, and all six people at the table were splashed and disheveled.
The one who reacted most strongly to this unsanitary behavior was Yu Rong, who let out a loud shriek and jumped up from her seat, then shrieked again: "Who is it?!"
Four others at the table were still in a daze, trying to figure out what had caused that loud "bang".
The wind was blowing, but he had already thought of the phrase "those who come with ill intentions do not come, and those who come with good intentions do not stay". He looked around and immediately got his answer. On the second floor of the wine house, apart from their table, there was only one other table of people, and they were also openly staring in this direction.
The wind was blowing gently. At first, he noticed the number of people on the other side, also six. Before he could make a judgment about what to do next, Yu Rong had already jumped forward and shouted: "What are you doing!"
The six of them looked over here with disdain and said bluntly: "Sorry, my hand slipped!"
Yu Rong's face turned pale with anger and she shouted: "Are you looking for trouble on purpose!"
They all burst out laughing, and one of them said: "You know what's good for you, now take these few and get lost! You're making too much noise!"
Yu Rong didn't respond, suddenly withdrawing her hands into her sleeves and then producing a pair of eyebrow-shaped daggers. Without saying a word, she stabbed at the nearest target. "Plop" - the two daggers were firmly lodged in the opponent's chest.
The wind was blowing gently as he watched his opponent being so arrogant, thinking that the other party should have some skills, after all, the Jianghu is so big and there are many players, but still, there are many hidden masters. But he never thought that Yu Rong would make a move like this, and the opponent didn't even have any defense and was hit, in Feng Xiao Xiao's eyes, except for being sudden, everything else was perfect, if it were him, he would have 1 million ways to dodge or block it.
The man who was stabbed half-dead cursed on the bench, "Damn it, that cheap woman ambushed me!" His five companions immediately shouted and drew their weapons, pouncing on Yu Rong, fighting in a flurry.
The wind whistled as he watched a few moves, feeling that these people were not worthy of being called masters, but they now had the upper hand because Moon Soft was not a master either, five against one, naturally having the upper hand.
Yuè Róu couldn't withstand them, and retreated while fighting. She probably also heard that Feng Xiao Xiao's martial arts were useless earlier, yet she didn't ask for Feng Xiao Xiao's help. Feng Xiao Xiao was also at a loss, trying to use her skills but still having no strength. After another attempt, a severe pain shot through her back, forcing her to stop.
Feng Xiao Xiao walked towards the four of them and saw that they were still studying at the table that had been smashed to pieces. Feng Xiao Xiao pushed them and said, "Hurry up and go help!"
Four people, under the influence of Feng Xiao Xiao, walked together towards Yue Rong who was in a fierce battle. However, the four pairs of eyes inadvertently revealed a look of confusion, and they were even more at a loss than Feng Xiao Xiao.
Finally, he slowly got up, his heart filled with joy, and he knew that as long as one of the four people made a move, the other five would be no match.
Xiao Yao straightened up, took a small step forward with great effort, and then his right hand grasped at his waist, but he couldn't grasp his sword. The wind was blowing gently, and he finally came to a clear realization: four drunk masters were equal to zero.
Xiaoyao is still okay, at least he can stand up, while the other three people are making every effort, but they cannot make their buttocks leave the bench even an inch.
Five people attacked Yu Rong while continuously cursing, looking at this situation, the five people are likely to take action against Feng Xiao Xiao and others after defeating Yu Rong. At this time, countless idioms flashed through Feng Xiao Xiao's mind: A tiger fallen into a plain is bullied by dogs; A phoenix with its feathers plucked is no better than a chicken; It is better to be shattered jade than unbroken pottery; A clay Bodhisattva crossing the river cannot protect itself...
