Episode 21: Temptation to Drink
Seeing that Guo Xiang was obsessed with Yang Guo, Jiang Chen was also very helpless, and after going to the guest room, he meditated and cultivated. He knew very well that his martial arts were all obtained by the talent of reincarnation, and on the foundation, it took a long time to run-in, so he was unwilling to give up every minute and second of cultivation time.
The next morning, Guo Xiang personally instructed her maid Xiaobangtou to bring over breakfast, which was fragrant salted porridge, four white-flour steamed buns, and a small plate of pickles, in this era of this world, this is definitely an extremely luxurious and hearty breakfast, Jiang Chen has been practicing outside for several months, and it is the first time he has eaten such a delicious breakfast, and he is naturally full of appetite and praise.
At noon, Yeluqi personally came to invite him, saying that a banquet had been set up in the mansion to thank him for saving the lives of Guo Fu and Guo Xiang. Jiang Chen followed Yeluqi to the hall, there were a lot of people in the hall, and they only fought one table, but Guo Xiang was nowhere to be seen. Jiang Chen's age is there, he can only be regarded as a junior, and after some excuses, he sat on top of Guo Poyu, just opposite Guo Jing. Although he wanted to do it very much, he also knew that it was not easy to ask Guo Xiang now, and not long after, Huang Rong and Zhu Ziliu also came, and Guo Jing's face looked quite happy.
"This time it is mainly to thank Jiang Shaoxia for killing Nemo Star and removing a big harm for the martial arts, Guo Jing hereby toasts you. Guo Jing, as the master, first stood up and toasted in respect. Huang Rong pulled Guo Jing's hand on the side, obviously blaming Guo Jing for saying something too clearly. Seeing this scene, Jiang Chen also understood a little in his heart, but he knew that he knew it, but he didn't mean to say it at all.
"Guo Daxia is too polite, it is purely accidental to save people this time, besides, even if he doesn't make a move, Miss Guo Xiang will be fine. Guo Daxia worked hard to guard Xiangyang, and as a Han people, he has always admired Guo Daxia very much, and this glass of wine should be to pay tribute to Guo Daxia. Jiang Chen immediately smiled slightly and stood up in return.
When everyone saw him as a young hero, they heard that his martial arts were extremely high, and he still knew how to be polite, but they also changed their opinion of him. Even Zhu Ziliu's eyes showed a slight hint of approval. Only Huang Rong was a little confused, until now, she still had doubts about Jiang Chen in her heart.
"This ......" Guo Jing was short of words for a while, and he didn't know what to say, but he heard Huang Rong smile and said: "Brother Jing, since Jiang Shaoxia respects you, you can drink it, don't let people stand all the time." ”
"Then I'd be respectful and obey my fate, do it!!" Guo Jing drank the wine down, and Jiang Chen did the same, only to feel that the wine was too spicy, and he almost vomited it, so he had to force his luck to go back, but his face was already flushed. I swallowed my stomach but felt that although this wine was domineering, it was indeed a good wine, but I drank it too quickly just now. He gets on his face as soon as he drinks, not really drunk with a glass of wine.
Huang Rong looked at him with a cup of belly, her face was already slightly red, and she suddenly had an idea in her heart. She looked at Zhu Ziliu and pointed to the wine glass with her eyes, Zhu Ziliu immediately understood, and also picked up the wine glass, and said to Jiang Chen: "Jiang Shaoxia's martial arts are superb, chivalrous and courageous, but he is also humble, and I will also give Shaoxia a glass in the future." ”
Seeing this, Jiang Chen didn't understand the other party's intention to do this, and said in his heart: "It turns out that you want to get me drunk, and then use my words!" At the moment, he secretly urged his internal strength, and he was already completely drunk, in fact, it was not that he couldn't drink, but he was a little drunk just now, and he was almost choked.
"Mr. Zhu is polite, I heard that Mr. is a champion, he is rich in five cars, and he is eight buckets high. What makes Jiang even more admired is that Mr. was originally from Dali, but he came to help the Great Song Dynasty guard Xiangyang, this mind, this bearing, is definitely a model for my generation to learn, and I also salute Mr. Jiang Chen responded with a smile, and drank all the wine in the cup after speaking.
"Since ancient times, heroes have been born as teenagers, Jiang Shaoxia, you are too modest. Zhu Ziliu is nothing on the surface, but his heart is churning, these words are said to Zhu Ziliu's heart, now that Dali is dead, he came to help the Great Song Dynasty to defend Xiangyang, although it is to deal with Mongolia, the enemy who destroyed the country, and he felt a little comforted. But how can the pain of the loss of the country be eliminated, there are many Dali masters during the banquet, all of whom are sad, but there is a lot of praise for Jiang Chen between the words.
Huang Rong saw that the scene was a little cold, and said with a smile: "Dunru, Xiuwen, your Uncle Zhu is respected, and the two of you should also respect Jiang Shaoxia." ”
Although the boss of Xiaowu was not happy, since his master and wife had spoken, he had to pick up the wine glass and said, "Jiang Shaoxia, our brother also toasts you." ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. The two brothers are extraordinary, they are really masters and disciples, and the tiger father has no dogs. The two were stationed in Xiangyang with their father and master, and were assisted by two virtuous couples, taking Xiangyang as their home, which was really the luck of Xiangyang and the great Song Dynasty. If everyone in the Great Song Dynasty can be like the two, then it will be like a million soldiers, and why be afraid of the Mongolian thief, and give the two a cup below. Jiang Chen said righteously.
To be honest, in terms of martial arts, he doesn't look down on this martial arts brother sporadically, but he said two words of praise to them later followed Guo Jing and Huang Rong to defend Xiangyang and finally martyred in the city, but it was not against his will, not to mention, for him, he didn't know where to throw it away.
"Dry!!" is what everyone likes to hear, otherwise there would not be so many people in the world who are good at making sycophants, when did the big and small martial artists receive such praise, they only felt a pride in their hearts, rushed straight to the sky, glanced at Jiang Chen, and then drank the wine.
If everyone in the Great Song Dynasty can regard the country as their home, we are not afraid of ten times more Yuanmeng people. Guo Jing heard what Jiang Chen said, and couldn't help but applaud. Huang Rong also smiled slightly, she didn't expect Jiang Chen to be so able to talk after drinking, and just wanted to speak, but saw Guo Poyu and Yeluqi stand up almost at the same time, raised their glasses and said:
"Brother Jiang!"
"Jiang Shaoxia!"
The three of them looked at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly, Huang Rong thought that she didn't need to remind herself this time, so she smiled and said, "Poyu, let your brother-in-law come first." ”
Guo Poyu, the kid was honest and honest, so he had to sit down first, Jiang Chen patted him on the shoulder, comforted him a little, and then said to Yeluqi: "Brother Yelu is too polite, I was just about to respect Brother Yelu, but I didn't expect to let Brother Yelu take the lead." Brother Yelu's literary talents, martial arts, and mind and belly are all greatly admired. Guo Daxia's son-in-law is like adding an arm, and Brother Yelu of the Great Song Dynasty will add 100,000 armor soldiers and pay tribute to Brother Yelu for a cup below. !"
"Yeluqi's meager talent, An Neng has won such an honor, Jiang Shaoxia praised it, do it!" Yeluqi was much calmer, but when he was praised like this, he couldn't help but show a little joy on his face, and he drank the wine with his hand.
Jiang Chen finished drinking, finally sat down, and asked Guo Poyu in a low voice, "Why didn't your second sister come?"
Guo Poyu replied honestly: "The second sister said that she didn't want to eat, so my mother asked someone to send the food to her house." ”
Without waiting for Jiang Chen to ask again, Huang Rong saw Jiang Chen and Guo Poyu whispering, and was curious, so she had already opened her mouth and asked, "Poyu, what are you and Jiang Shaoxia muttering?"
"Oh, nothing, I was just going to have a drink with the Breaker, come on, Breaker, let's have a drink too. Tiger father has no dog, I hope you will work hard, achieve achievements as soon as possible, and live up to the prestige of Guo Daxia. Jiang Chen knew that Guo Poyu was an honest child, so he hurriedly said first.
"Brother Jiang," Guo Poyu scratched his head and responded: "I also work hard, but I don't always do well, and my martial arts can't even compare to the second sister." ”
"God rewards hard work, your father was not as good as your mother back then, and now he has not become a hero. Don't lose faith, it's important to keep going. Jiang Chen said with a smile, and then drank the wine, his face was already like a red persimmon, and it would break when he pinched it.
Huang Rong was about to take advantage of the great opportunity to get Jiang Chen drunk, and then ask some words by spitting out the truth after drinking, but when she saw a wisp of smoke steaming above Jiang Chen's head, and the drunkenness on her face also dissipated, she couldn't help but be stunned for a while!
Zhu Ziliu and the others couldn't help but widen their eyes, and sighed secretly in their hearts: This Jiang Shaoxia has such profound internal strength, it seems that it is impossible to get drunk with him.
Since Jiang Chen's internal strength cultivation has reached such a state, he will drink for another night, but he is afraid that he will not get drunk, and at the moment Huang Rong, Zhu Ziliu and others have no choice but to give up their plans, and there is no other meaning to be mixed in, this meal can be regarded as a joy for the guests and hosts, and it will not be dispersed until the sun is in the west
