..................
After returning to the capital, he rarely went out.
In the past two months, he has either been locked in the house, or sitting in the courtyard drinking tea, and now that the expedition is imminent, he simply took Baofeng and a few old brothers and Qi Lao Dao to the streets.
The group of six people didn't go far, and the snow was falling heavily.
Pieces of goose feather-like snowflakes fluttered one after another, shrouded in a vast expanse in all directions. Even when twilight fell, it was as if the heavens and the earth were blurred, and day and night were indistinguishable. The lights on both sides of the street add to the chill in the haze. Pedestrians are rushing to and fro, and a few children are chasing and playing in the snow.
Wrapped in a robe, he walked side by side with Qi Sanren. Bao Feng and the others followed left and right, laughing loudly along the way.
"When the snow falls, it's just drinking and eating meat. It's better to go to the old store of Shen Ji, slaughter a sheep, scald a pot of wine, and you will definitely be happy!"
"According to me, Heng Kee's offal soup is very delicious and affordable......
"Hong Ji's barbecue is also good, each person will give half a catty of burnt knives, Brother Bao ate it last time, and he praised it very much......
"Haha! Since the son invites everyone to eat and drink, where to go, the son must decide......"
Baofeng and Lu San, Daoqi, and Ma Zhantie are inseparable from eating and drinking, and they are almost salivating. It is also difficult to guard the barracks for a few men for days. happened to walk to a street corner, and the four of them stopped and waited for where to go.
Wu Yi held his head high and his eyes narrowed, I don't know if he was admiring the snowflakes in the sky, or thinking about his thoughts, but he kept under his feet: "Cloud Tower!"
The four of Baofeng looked at each other, and their spirits were lifted.
Childe is childe, and opening your mouth is different. Yunxiao Tower is famous in the capital, it is the place where the royal family and nobles come and go, it is said that a pastime, without hundreds of taels of silver, I am afraid that it will not be possible. It's rare for a few brothers to open their eyes, haha!
The four old brothers didn't care to say much, and strode forward. Although I have never entered the Sky Tower, the place where I am located is clear.
Qi Sanren didn't care where to go, but silently said to himself on the side: "This kid is used to spending days and drinking, and now he is really suffocated." And Ben Dao is also very aggrieved, so why not indulge in it!"
A group of six people crossed four or five streets one after another, and a tall pavilion appeared hundreds of feet away.
The pavilion is built on the mountain, covering an area of several miles. And the building is more than ten floors high, and the upper and lower corners fly the eaves and carve beams and paint the building. There are also countless oil-paper lanterns hanging around, which look magnificent and dazzling even in the snowy night.
In front of the high-rise building, there are cars and horses parked, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going.
Without thinking about it, from the accelerated pace of Baofeng and the others, I already knew that the Yunxiao Tower had arrived. The elder brother rushed over and didn't forget to look back and wave.
Wu Yi and Qi Sanren walked through the crowd and slowly walked under the tall building.
I saw two stone beasts entrenched at both ends of the steps in front of the door; on both sides of the steps until the end, the lanterns were lined up and bright as day; above the open gate, there was a plaque hanging "Cloud Tower". There are also neatly dressed guys and acquaintances, and they are all busy.
"A few of you, please hang out elsewhere, and Hugh will stand in front of the door. ”
The elder brothers were waiting at the foot of the steps, and a middle-aged man-like acquaintance stretched out his hand to expel him. In the eyes of the other party, it was just a few poor soldiers from the barracks hanging out here.
"You're blind, aren't I a guest of your Sky Tower?"
Bao Feng was humiliated for no reason, and without thinking much about it, he pushed away the blocked acquaintance, who expected that the snow was slippery on the ground, and the other party "plopped" and fell on his back, and suddenly shouted: "Beat people-"
The shouting just started here, and more than a dozen strong men surrounded by "hula", who actually stretched out their arms and sleeves, which was clearly a hands-on posture.
"A few reckless men in the barracks dare to go wild in the Sky Tower?"
Zhike was helped up, and he shouted endlessly: "All the beatings will go out, and turn around to show Shangguan to ask for guilt." ”
was originally rushing here, but who expected that he would be blasted out of the door in the blink of an eye.
Bao Feng reached out and lifted the fur hat on his head, and his face with a scar was fierce. He exchanged glances with the three old brothers on the left and right, and each clenched his fist.
There has always been only one rule, don't suffer the immediate loss. In the face of the provocateur, beat him down first. This is a lesson in exchange for life, and it is also the only way to live to this day!
And the acquaintance was unrelenting, and was about to play a big trick, just at this moment, a golden light fell from the sky through the flying snowflakes, his eyes flickered, and there was an extra thing in his hand, which was actually a gold ingot, very heavy.
At the same time, a man's figure squeezed through the crowd and walked over, and with a "snap" he lifted the cloak of his outer robe, revealing a jade crown inlaid with gold on his head. His fair and delicate face, two slightly raised sword eyebrows, and a dark brocade robe make the whole person even more rich and compelling. I saw him raise his chin, hum in his nose, and proudly said: "This son is here, who dares to be presumptuous!"
It turned out to be a rich son, not only generous, but also a figure who led the troops, presumably from a royal family, and it was really hard to offend!
The arrogance of a group of strong men present suddenly disappeared, and they nodded their heads one by one.
The errand of knowing the guest is to usher in the send-off, and seeing the wind and making the rudder is the skill of the housekeeper. He grabbed the gold ingot in his hand and looked up, while motioning for his companions to disperse, he took the opportunity to curry favor and said, "Please forgive the little rudeness, dare to ask the son how to call him......"
An old man followed and squeezed closer, opened his mouth and scolded: "The dog's eyes look at people's things, this is Gongsun Gongzi and several generals under his command!" He seemed to be very angry, and his prestige was not inferior to that son, and then he said: "If you don't serve diligently, don't provoke Bendao to lose his temper!"
Bao Feng and the three old brothers were a little embarrassed, and each released his fist. Of course, the person who came was not an outsider, but a person who arrived a step late.
Zhike should have heard of the name of Gongsun Gongzi, and saw the old monk dressed up, and hurriedly said: "The little one should be damned, don't be angry with the immortal chief!" He is not afraid of soldiers, and he may not put a down-and-out son in his eyes, but he does not dare to offend the immortal chief, and instead shouts loudly: "Gongsun Gongzi and the immortal chief have arrived, and the nine-fold sky is in the private room to welcome guests!"
A fellow ran down the stairs and stretched out his hand to ask.
Qi Sanren picked up his hands and paced forward, not forgetting to turn around and say, "Gongsun Gongzi, please, ......"
Throwing out the gold, holding his head high, his demeanor was dumbfounded, and he thought about a few words, but who expected to be robbed of the limelight by that old way. He snorted secretly and led the four of Baofeng up the stairs.
Stepping into the gate of the Sky Tower, I suddenly felt warm. But seeing the brilliance of the lamp wall, the guests are like clouds, and in the midst of the hustle and bustle, there are more flowers and willows and warblers.
Bao Feng and the three old brothers only felt dazzled and admired again and again. I have heard the name of Yunxiao Tower for a long time, but it is the first time to visit the scene in person. According to Lu San's words, it is much more generous than a few restaurants in the back street, and has both the gorgeousness of a brothel in Qinglou and the liveliness of Goolan Tiles. The guests who came and went were either rich or expensive, all dressed brightly and with a reserved demeanor. Now he has four leather robes, leather armor and is covered with wind and frost, which is very rustic and untimely.
The man led the way in front of the head, and the group continued on.
Yunxiao Tower is built by the mountain, a total of more than ten floors high, nine of which are used to entertain guests, and take the meaning of the clouds, from one to nine respectively named. The private room with the name of the nine-fold sky is on the ninth floor. A corridor with steps leads up to the floors, making it quite smooth up and down.
Suddenly, I reached the ninth floor.
There is a row of attics built on both sides of the cloister here, the so-called private room is at the end of the east side of the right hand, and there are also Tianzi, Xuanzi, and Huangzi adjacent to it.
The man opened the attic of the sky, and everyone rushed in.
The building is quite spacious, with a row of south-facing floor-to-ceiling windows spread in front of a warm couch, and a few low tables, surrounded by candlesticks and various exquisite objects, the size of a few zhang is quite neat and elegant.
Qi Sanren kicked off his shoes and got on the warm couch, then stretched his sleeves and sat cross-legged, stretched out his hand and patted the low table beside him, and said: "Serve all the best dishes and the best wine in Yunxiaolou, and then come to a few handsome girls to accompany the wine." ”
The man nodded in agreement, closed the door and ran out.
Qi Sanren glared again and said: "You guys are stunned, sit up in a circle, it's rare for the son to return to the host, don't cheapen him!"
The four of Baofeng were still a little at a loss, seeing that Lao Dao was so casual, they were much more relaxed, and then took off their boots and jumped on the warm couch, and the smell of sweat and feet suddenly filled the surroundings.
Qi Sanren hurriedly waved his sleeves and pounced, coughing in a muffled voice: "Ahem...... Stinks to death......"
The four Baofeng brothers laughed.
Wu Yi took off his robe, followed the warm couch, walked to the window, and stretched out his hand to pull up the beaded curtain. The floor-to-ceiling windows were inlaid with a thin layer of crystal, and the wind and snow fluttered and rattled. He stood in silence for a moment, then turned and sat down.
Yunxiaolou used to be the place where I was crazy and drunk, and I should say that I am very familiar. And now that I have returned here, I am still hugging and holding my hands generously, but I can no longer find the happiness and freedom I had back then. Not only is it like a world away, but it's also a bit strange......
The old brothers were talking to Qi Sanren, all with smiles on their faces.
Lu San leaned his sturdy body and said curiously: "Mr. Qi, as an immortal elder, you are very old, and you can't imagine that you are also a meat and vegetarian taboo, hehe......"
The so-called meat and vegetarian dishes are not taboo, and the old brothers present naturally understand it.
Daoqi stretched out his hand and slapped Lu Sanyi, and scolded with a smile: "You have no ...... to stop you."
Ma Zhantie was understanding: "This kid is not married yet, so it is inevitable that he will be in a hurry!"
Bao Feng had some insight, and said with a smile: "Presumably, the immortal chief also has seven emotions and six desires......
The four brothers are all rough men in their thirties, only Lu San is slightly younger, and he has not yet started a family, so everyone will inevitably laugh at him.
Qi Sanren stroked his beard and said unfathomably: "Walking all over the red dust, people are not old, waving their sleeves and clouds do not touch their bodies! The seven emotions and six desires of this way are different from you......
Blameless's eyes squinted and his expression was disdainful.
This old way is pretending!
When he came here, he was like a different person, a good wine and food, and a handsome girl, he really underestimated him!
