Chapter 24: Apprenticeship
Luzhou, also known as Jiangyang or Wine City. Just by hearing the name, you will know that the wine here must be famous. At the same time, because of the convenience of water and land, it is also a very prosperous city.
Sun Baifa pulled Xi Bai into the city, Xi Bai looked at the surrounding shops, merchants and hawkers, for such a prosperous scene of commodity trade in ancient times, he felt much more interesting than the city in reality, but after seeing the prosperity of Dali, this time Xi Bai was not as curious about everything as last time. The most important thing is that under the pull of Sun Baifa, even if he wants to stop, he can't help it.
Sun Baifa pulled Xi Bai all the way, like two swimming fish on the shoulder-to-shoulder streets, and the surrounding crowd did not hinder them. Soon stopped in front of a rather imposing restaurant.
Xi Bai looked up at the four-storey restaurant, which made it stand out from the crowd of surrounding buildings. The unique cornices and glittering glazed tiles in ancient times all reveal a delicate atmosphere. There is a plaque above the vermilion gate, and there are three big characters of "Drunken Immortal Building" on it.
"Haha, it's good that it's not too late, let's go, Xiaoyou go in, the daughter here is red, but the old man thinks about it!" Sun Baifa pulled Xi Bai and walked inside.
Xi Bai let the other party pull him and entered the drunken immortal building, but he was only at the door, but he was stopped by the shopkeeper.
"Stop! Two, not everyone can come here, you must know that the things in our Drunken Immortal Building are not cheap! Xiao Er glanced at the two of them and said with his head held high.
Xi Bai didn't expect that he was actually stopped, but he glanced at Sun Baifa who looked like a beggar next to him, and then looked at the shabby novice cloth on his body, as if he should have been stopped.
However, no matter who encounters such a thing, they will be in a bad mood, and Xi Bai is no exception. Xi Bai touched it in his arms, took out an ingot of ten taels of silver, shook it in front of Xiao Er's eyes, and said, "Now we can go in." ”
When Xiao Er saw the silver, his expression immediately changed, and he said with a smile: "Yes, it was a small one just now, you can come in, please come in!" "This change is so fast that it is unimaginable that the snobbish shopkeeper just now and now he is a person.
Xi Bai snorted coldly, and he didn't have the same knowledge as the other party, so he bowed down and asked Sun Baifa to go into the restaurant.
"I wonder if the guest officer is in this hall, or is he going upstairs?"
"Go to the third floor, the view is good." Sun Baifa said first.
The shopkeeper had no objection, so he took the two of them up to the third floor.
Different from the noisy hall on the first floor, the third floor is an independent private room, these private rooms are no different in appearance, the two of them chose one at random, entered the room, Sun Baifa skillfully ordered some dishes, asked for two altars of eighteen-year-old daughter Hong, squinted while smoking dry tobacco, while waiting. And Xi Bai just watched from the sidelines.
Soon, the dishes and daughter red came up, Sun Baifa laughed, grabbed a jar of daughter red, patted open the mud, first closed his eyes and took a deep breath of intoxication, and then slowly spit it out, then took the bowl, poured a bowl, and then tilted his neck, and drank it down, then closed his eyes and tasted for a while, poured another bowl, drank, poured another bowl, drank three bowls in a row, and then put down the wine jar, burped, and said good wine, good wine!
At this time, the aroma of wine has filled the whole house, although Xi Bai usually doesn't drink, but now he smells the aroma of wine, and he can't help it, so he took another jar of daughter red, patted open the mud, and poured himself a bowl. However, Xi Bai didn't dare to drink this bowl of wine in one go, after all, how could modern people have the same amount of wine as the ancients. Xi Bai first took a sip slowly, only to feel that the wine was fragrant and mellow, luscious and long, and after drinking, his mouth was full of aftertaste, and the aftertaste was endless.
Xi Bai couldn't help nodding, this wine was fragrant but not strong, much better than the wine in reality, and he couldn't help but drink all the bowls of wine. At first, he didn't feel anything, but after a while, Xi Bai only felt a hot breath in his abdomen, and then the heat surged, and a mouth opened, and a wine burp came out, and then Xi Bai couldn't help but feel a burst of red and hot ears, and secretly said that the drunken energy came a little too fast.
Sun Baifa has been watching Xi Bai from the side, Xi Bai's face turned red, and he couldn't help laughing, but he didn't pay attention to Xi Bai, he only cared about drinking bowls and bowls of wine, until half a jar of wine went down, which seemed to relieve his addiction to alcohol, and began to eat vegetables while drinking.
Xi Bai couldn't help but sigh that the virtuality of this game was really high, and he couldn't imagine that even getting drunk was the same as in reality, and he didn't dare to drink more at the moment, just sipping it and eating the dishes at the same time. This drunken fairy building is not only good for wine, but also a must, and Xi Bai is also happy to eat.
Full of wine and food, both of them didn't want to move for a while, sitting lazily on the chair, Sun Baifa squinted and smoked a dry cigarette, and suddenly looked at Xi Bai and said: "Xiaoyou can invite the old man to come to this drunken fairy building to drink, I really can't repay the old man, but the old man is not the kind of person who takes advantage of others, so let's do it, the old man wants to accept Xiaoyou as an apprentice, I don't know if Xiaoyou is willing?" ”
Xi Bai stood up in shock, the wine he drank just now woke up more than half early, stared at Sun Baifa and said, "Old senior, just said that you want to accept the kid as an apprentice?" ”
Sun Baifa nodded: "What, Xiaoyou thinks the old man is not worthy of being your master?" ”
Xi Bai hurriedly shook his head, joking, the other party is an old man! If you don't want such a master, then what kind of master do you need? It's just that he didn't expect that just one meal, he could find a master like this cow, which feels a bit unreasonable!
Xi Bai didn't understand in his heart, so he asked: "The old-timers can accept me as an apprentice, that is the blessing that the kid has cultivated for several lifetimes, how can there be any reason to disagree, but the kid doesn't understand in his heart, what point does the old-timer like the kid fall in love with, so that people like the seniors are willing to accept me as an apprentice?" ”
Sun Baifa smiled and said: "Xiaoyou, don't be arrogant, through this day's observation, Xiaoyou, you are kind-hearted and upright, and you will not harm the martial arts in the future, which is the premise of the old man's apprenticeship." And Xiaoyou, your qualifications are also martial arts wizards that have not been produced in a hundred years! This is what the old man saw and was envious of, no wonder the third Yue said yesterday that he was unwilling to give up his little friend. With these two points, the old man naturally wanted to accept Xiaoyou. ”
Xi Bai nodded when he heard this, and he also understood a little in his heart, the old man Tianji himself is a person who thinks about martial arts, so the first thing to do is to be kind to others, not to harm martial arts. It seems that he let Yue Laosan go at the beginning, and inadvertently left a good impression in the heart of the old man Tianji. This is also a bonus.
Moreover, the old man of Tianji accepts apprentices, and the martial arts qualification seems to be a very important point. If he can replace Duan Yu and make Yue Laosan want to accept him as an apprentice, it means that his qualifications are at least equal to Duan Yu, otherwise he will not let Yue Laosan give up Duan Yu. As for this, of course, it is due to the "Jiuyang Divine Skill", when I learned the "Jiuyang Divine Skill", I added 3 points of root bones and 3 points of understanding, and it seems that my martial arts qualifications have been greatly improved!
Thinking of these two points, Xi Bai was naturally very happy to become a disciple of the old man of Tianji, and immediately leaned over and bowed: "Apprentice to meet the master!" ”
