In the afternoon, it was close to dusk, but the weather was still very dry, and there were many busy pedestrians walking on the streets from time to time, and their mood seemed to change with the weather, and they were a little bored.

This is a narrow alleyway, and the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, but sometimes it is also afraid. For some, at least, it's quiet and a place to drink and enjoy a glass of wine.

Oil lamps had been lit in the tavern, yellow, orange and orange, and the atmosphere was very quiet.

There weren't many pedestrians here, and there weren't many customers in the tavern, but the tavern owner didn't seem to care.

He wanted to find someone who knew how to drink, not someone who spoiled it, and it didn't matter to him whether there were many customers or not.

At the door of the tavern, a figure in a coarse white shirt appeared, he looked not young, but there were not many wrinkles on his face, and he walked very lightly and slowly, as if because he couldn't walk fast at all.

His hair was gray, like an old man who needed to be supported.

In the tavern, the only figure sitting was holding a jar of wine, rubbing it on his face from time to time, looking extremely enjoyable.

His drinking movements are not elegant, but they are not rude, even if he is holding the wine jar and leaning his neck to pour it.

"Good wine, good wine, really good wine. After drinking, he smashed his mouth and praised it again and again.

"The entrance is mellow, strong, spicy, and this kind of wine is only enjoyable to drink!"

"What does the Taoist think counts as drinking?" the tavern owner suddenly asked, looking at the behavior of the drinker.

The man snorted and said in a low voice: "The real drinking is naturally the mood, not the wine poured into the stomach and the wine is drunk, it can only be said that it is wasting the food for winemaking." Do you think your question can be difficult for me to do?

Wine, wine, wine, wine, only those who understand wine are called drinking. The ancient sages are lonely, only the drinker leaves his name, but unfortunately, today only my old Taoist drinks alone, the world is vast, there is no confidant, it is really a great sad thing!"

After drinking a pot of wine, the Taoist looked up to the sky and smiled: "There are fewer than a thousand cups of wine for a confidant, and there is no speculation in more than half a sentence!

"Since the Taoist is a person who understands wine, he should not take a penny today. The tavern owner laughed.

"You're a funny boss, I like it. Why don't you help me fill the wine gourd again?" the Taoist approached the boss, patted the wine gourd on his waist, and said with a smile.

"......" The tavern owner has a black line on his head, and I'm not a charity, can you pit me?

"Since you're going to drink, why don't I invite you?" a sudden voice sounded, and the old man in a coarse white shirt stepped into the tavern.

"That's embarrassing. The Taoist turned his head to look at the comer, a smile on his face.

"I'm sorry to see you. ”

"You know me. ”

"Boss, bring two jugs of wine. The old man in a coarse white shirt threw a silver ingot at the tavernkeeper.

The boss nodded, picked up two jugs of wine, and placed them on the table.

The old man sat across from the Taoist, and the tavern owner poured them a large bowl full of wine and left.

......

Twilight had arrived, and the pedestrians on the roads were even more scarce, and there were hardly any people in the alleys, except for a tavern, where there were still people.

Two jugs of wine, two people.

"We haven't seen each other in decades, haven't we?" said the old man in a coarse white shirt.

"Fifty years, or sixty years? Maybe longer. The Taoist scratched his head, thought for a moment, and was not sure.

"In other words, you, the master of the Heavenly Book Pavilion, should be more and more handy. The Taoist then smiled again.

This old man in a coarse white shirt is the current Tianshu Pavilion master, Elder Wen.

And that person, obviously, is the Fire Barbarian Cyclamen.

"After being a pavilion master for more than two hundred years, do you think it's easy?" Wen Lao took a sip of wine.

"Cut, I think you're really at ease. The fire man pursed his lips and said angrily: "How can there be a wine like you, grinding and chirping, do you think you are tasting tea?"

"Wine tasting is the same as tea tasting. Wen Lao smiled: "What's more, I don't have a thirst for alcohol like you." ”

"That's why I said you're boring. The Fire Barbarian Cyclamen took a sip of wine, sighed and said, "What, the disciple I recommended to you didn't disappoint you, did he?"

"Your female apprentice is indeed very talented, but with your temperament, it is impossible for her to worship me as a teacher, I am afraid she has other plans. ”

"It's hard to hear what you say, I'm upright, you don't have to beat around the bush, I believe you should also understand why I let her join the Heavenly Book Pavilion. The Flame Barbarian snorted.

"The Fire Silkworm Divine Heart Body is rare in the world, and it complements the Pure Lotus Heavenly Fire that you cultivated, but it's a pity that only the right exercises can't exert the power of this Divine Heart Body. You asked her to be admitted to my Tianshu Pavilion because you wanted to find a way to stimulate her physique, but unfortunately, I really have this method in my Pavilion. Wen Lao smiled.

"I'll just say that you, this old guy, are searching for books all over the world, not to mention covering all the books in the world, but there is no sect in the world that has more books in your Tianshu Pavilion, it seems that my choice is right. ”

"There are thousands of books in the library, but the most valuable books are not in the library. That girl's ability is not enough to enter there, so you are so willing to let her stay in Tianshu Pavilion for a few years, or even decades?"

The fire barbarian cyclamen's face was ugly, and he said angrily: "Since you know this, you can simply be generous, and just say the method, don't you really want to snatch my apprentice away?"

Wen Lao laughed and said: "You old cowhide, you will never accept apprentices easily, and accepting that girl as an apprentice must not be just because of the fire silkworm god body." How can I have a reason to rob people from you, but then again, you sent this apprentice to me yourself, so this is not what I robbed, right?"

"Wow, I didn't expect you, an old guy with no nose, to be so shameless!"

Wen Lao shook his head and said, "We are all old, if we can't break through the realm within a hundred years, it is equivalent to burying one foot in the loess." After all, this world is a young man, how can I hide my secrets? However, fate is extremely mysterious, but it cannot be forced, so you can relax, it should be your apprentice's, it is your apprentice's, and no one can take it away. ”

"I hate your tone the most, it's obviously just a matter of one sentence, but it's so complicated, it's really unpleasant. The fireman cyclamen poured a few more sips.

Wen Laogu said of him: "Many young people this year are more talented than ever, even if they are born at the wrong time, their achievements in the future may be far higher than ours." If they can't grow up and take charge of themselves, once the tide breaks out, the Great Wei Dynasty will definitely be devastated. ”

The fire barbarian cyclamen squinted at him and said: "It's not that the sea tide has never come, it's strange to say, obviously the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty are both west of the sea area, why do the sea tides always fall on the Great Wei frequently, is this really a treasure land?"

"Xu is that taboo, not far from being announced to the public, and those guys in the Dream Sea should also be aware of it. The previous many times were temptations, and they will eventually find an opportunity to completely occupy the land and become the master of the continent. ”

"What did that person do when he came to Great Wei?

Elder Wen shook his head and said, "How can you and I know this, after all, it has been too long, and the people who know about that matter are no longer there." Although I know a little bit about it, I don't dare to speculate. ”

The fire barbarian cyclamen's face was slightly solemn, and he said in a low voice: "The Northern Dynasty is going to change the sky after all, the Zhou Emperor has fallen, and the Great Zhou Dynasty is in a time of internal and external troubles. ”

"What should come will always come, not all you and I can have. The pace of the Southern Dynasties is also approaching, and the dispute between the North and the South will eventually come to an end. Wen Lao drank a glass of wine and said softly.

"It's the avenue that doesn't favor me in the Northern Dynasty, the resources of the Southern Dynasty are far better than those of the Northern Dynasty, if it weren't for those old guys who couldn't shrink back and were too selfish, I'm afraid that as early as a hundred years ago, the Northern Dynasty would have been wiped out by the Southern Dynasty. "The fire savage cyclamen is not without emotion.

Elder Wen was silent, raised his glass to the Fire Barbarian Cyclamen, and said: "You have been staying in the Canghai Realm for hundreds of years, if you don't meet a great opportunity, there is no hope of breaking through the realm for the rest of your life, you should also think about it for the sake of hindsight." ”

The Fire Barbarian Cyclamen said disdainfully: "I see that you have signs of breaking the realm, it seems that you will die after me after all, I am really unwilling to think about it." ”

"What if I break through the realm, if I can't break through the realm, my lifespan won't increase, and neither of us will have many years to live. "In the face of life and death, they are always full of melancholy, but in the end, they have not broken the avenue.

"The realm of asking gods is different from the four realms below Tianwu, and each small realm is a big barrier, and they are all chasms that cannot be crossed. It's a pity that we were born at the wrong time, if we were in the prosperous era of cultivation, with the talents of you and me, our achievements would definitely not be comparable to today. "The fireman cyclamen kept pouring wine, and he was full of emotion.

As people get older, they have more ideas, but this kind of thinking is a kind of pressure, and they all want to change this situation.

"After today, I will be in retreat to prepare to break through the four realms, and the Heavenly Book Pavilion still needs a lot of care from you. Elder Wen raised his glass again at this moment and said.

"There are all your juniors in the Heavenly Book Pavilion, and there are my apprentices, I don't need you to say it, I will do the same. The Fire Barbarian Cyclamen nodded, was silent for a moment, and continued: "I only hope that you will not fail to break through the realm and die early, otherwise, I will definitely die happily, and I don't want to accompany you." ”

Wen Lao smiled and shook his head, the two looked at each other, and they both drank the wine in their glasses.

"Your apprentice seems to have found it. Wen Lao looked at the door of the tavern, and it was dark in the alley at night.

"Xu couldn't find the method of stimulating the fire silkworm god's heart body, so he asked me for help. The fireable cyclamen glanced at Wen Lao, sighed, and said: "Sometimes I really can't see you clearly, in fact, things that can be easily solved, you have to put it off again and again, to put it nicely, it is high, and if it is ugly, you are an idiot." ”

"It's rare to be confused, and this is also a kind of practice. Wen Lao Waner smiled.

The Fire Barbarian Cyclaman pouted, "I don't care about your boring cultivation method. ”
