There can be a tavern in the mountain village, which is the persuasion of the rivers and lakes, but seeing that this tavern is not big, there are only two rooms, and the candle flame shoots out from half of the door, shining on the three steps of the door, the steps are shiny, and the steps are smooth, Lu Qianyu poked his head into the door, and did not see the second boy, thinking, "It's getting late, maybe the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper have already slept!" So, with a hint of apology, he lifted the iron pull ring on the door, knocked a few times, Xu Laifeng was tied at this time, touched the back of his neck, and said: " This tavern, how do I look a little wrong?"

Lu Qianyu disagreed, and shouted: "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, I came to visit late at night, and I just asked for a bed and a pot of soju, so I disturbed." ”

After a while, there was a creak, and the door inside was pushed open by someone, and a figure moved slowly, and said, "It's not late, it's not late, the two guests came just in time, and if it's half an hour late, we'll be asleep." It was a female voice, Lu Qianyu retreated, and half of the door was pushed open to a woman, only to see that she was wearing a dress, wearing a small coat inside, with a round face and big eyes, a bright complexion, a half-old, a fat figure, but a thin waist, the whole is trumpet-shaped, a pair of thick legs, plump and powerful, and a pair of embroidered shoes are worn at random under her feet.

Lu Qianyu bowed slightly and said, "Shopkeeper, I'm sorry." ”

When this half-old saw two handsome young men, she smiled as if she had eaten honey, she carried a horse lantern in her right hand, took a photo in front of Lu Qianyu, and said: "Ah, objectively fast forward, fast forward, I am in a hurry late at night to come to our small shop, but it is an honor." ”

Xu Laifeng said: "Boss, is there any wine and meat in this big night?"

The proprietress said with a smile: "Preparation, preparation, wine is their own red sorghum, pure grain wine, three bowls of belly, make sure to sleep until dawn, the meat is their own yellow beef, delicious, must be tasted." ”

Xu Laifeng squeezed into the door and said, "Come up quickly, we have rushed all the way, we can't eat, but we will starve our brother to death." ”

The proprietress glanced at Lu Qianyu, retreated to the house, and said, "Two little brothers, where are you going?" ”

The lights in the house were a little brighter, and Lu Qianyu saw that the proprietress was a little enchanting, and said, "I'm going to Nanyang." ”

Nanyang is a big city in the south, Lu Qianyu heard the businessmen on the road, where the trade is Hengtong, Lu Qianyu casually said, I don't want to reveal too much to the boss, the boss's eyes are also thieves, I saw Lu Qianyu with two scabbards on his waist, the instrument is extraordinary, Xu Laifeng is holding a feather fan made of stainless steel in his hand, and immediately understands that these two are going to the rivers and lakes, and said:" It's getting late today, there are bandits in front, two are people who learn martial arts, although there are martial arts, but I want to persuade them, the bandits in front are very fierce, and they have committed a bad heinous case, and the two of them are better to wait until tomorrow during the day, it is better to stay in this store for a night. ”

Xu Laifeng asked, "Boss, do you still have a place to live here?"

The proprietress said: "In the backyard, after eating, I'll take you to take a look." ”

This is exactly what Xu Laifeng meant, and said: "It's okay, the bandits are fierce, let's rest here for the night, boss, you go and tie our horses to the stables, good wine and good food will be brought up, and you will not be treated badly." ”

After hearing this, the proprietress smiled and said, "Okay." Then, he shouted at the back hall: "Boss, boss, what are you doing, you dead ghost, drink a few bubbles of horse urine, and you won't sleep late, don't you, come and pick up the guests." ”

When Xu Laifeng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh, and thought: "This boss is probably a drunkard who is afraid of his daughter-in-law." ”

After a while, a stout man pushed open the curtain of the door and walked in, took a jar of red sorghum in one step, and said drunkenly, "Two guests, please use it." ”

Lu Qianyu looked at the man, and saw that he was a horse face, very long, his facial features seemed to be elongated like a person, very ugly, his arms and thighs were very thick, and the muscles were bulging.

The proprietress scolded: "You dead ghost, let you do some work, half-dead, the old lady married you, it is really eight lifetimes of blood mold." ”

Xu Laifeng said with a smile: "Boss, your man has drunk too much, don't scold, go and fry two dishes for our brothers, and bring your yellow beef and sauce to it, and our brothers will taste it." ”

The proprietress muttered: "It's really unlucky to marry this kind of man, my life is miserable." With that, he turned to the back kitchen.

Xu Laifeng saw that Lu Qianyu was not smiling, and said: "This pair is really interesting. ”

Lu Qianyu was looking at this tavern, there were five tables in the room, there was a stove in the middle, but there was no fire, the wall was an earthen wall, grass clippings could be seen, there were a few calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, there were mountains and flowing water, and the market was varied. One of them, fish and shrimp playing in the water aroused Lu Qianyu's interest, although Lu Qianyu did not work calligraphy and painting, but grew up in a large family since childhood, these things are indispensable, he saw that the fish and shrimp picture is vivid, lifelike, must be from the pen of a famous artist, there is a red seal in the lower right corner, it is a small script, Lu Qianyu does not know.

Xu Laifeng is the young owner of Shujian Villa, Shujian Villa is especially famous for its book and sword, has a lot of books, good swordsmanship, is the two magic weapons of Shujian Villa galloping rivers and lakes, as long as it is a person of Shujian Villa, it is inevitable that the book and the sword are two unique, Xu Laifeng is no exception, he has been reading since childhood, "Four Books and Five Classics" and "Confucian Classics" are even more backwards, for the painting is very studied, he can see at a glance, the paintings on this wall are not ordinary, one of them "Tiger Descending the Mountain", plus Lu Qianyu appreciated this "Fish and Shrimp Frolicking Picture" They are all the works of ancient tycoons, and I can't help but say: "I really can't see it, in this rural place, you can still see such paintings, according to the market value, these two paintings are enough for this boss and the proprietress to open a thousand more taverns." ”

Lu Qianyu said: "No, these two paintings are worth so much money?"

"These two are extinct, there will be no more, so it's just a city, this "Tiger Descending the Mountain" is from the Tang Dynasty, this "Fish and Shrimp Frolic" is from the Sui Dynasty, I said they are worth 100,000 taels, which is still a little, in comparison, the Tibetan paintings in my Shujian Villa, compared with them, are a hundred, together, they can't compare. It's just..."

Lu Qianyu also wondered, if it was really as Xu Laifeng said, then how could these two paintings appear here, framed in a country tavern, wouldn't it be strange, where are the proprietress and the boss?

Lu Qianyu asked: "Do you understand, take a closer look, isn't it a fake?"

Xu Laifeng said: "I can't say this well, it's the first time I've seen such a painting, if you want to say it's a fake, it's too realistic, even if it's a fake, these two are worth a thousand taels of silver." ”

Lu Qianyu gasped, and wanted to say more, at this time, the proprietress turned out of the back hall, it turned out that the meal had been ready, the proprietress saw Lu Qianyu and Xu Laifeng gathered in front of the painting, and said, "Two guest officers, you also like to paint?"

Lu Qianyu said: "Boss, these two paintings are very good, I don't know where you got them." ”

Xu Laifeng said with a smile: "My brother likes to paint, and he is quite serious about calligraphy and painting, as soon as he sees the two paintings on this wall, he thinks it is the Tang Dynasty's "Tiger Descending the Mountain" and the Sui Dynasty's "Fish and Shrimp Playing", I said, these two paintings are famous paintings of ancient times, how can they appear here, he still doesn't believe it, boss, I really can't see it, you still love this, is this what you painted?"

The proprietress covered her mouth and smiled: "You praise me absurdly, how can I paint, I don't know anything about this, where do I know how to paint, these two things, but not a famous painting of the past and the present, it was painted by my dead old man, seeing that the tavern was simply decorated, it was hung on the wall, and I won't tell you that the guest officers who passed by our tavern just drank wine and ate meat, and teased the old lady, but no one had ever thought about this painting." ”
