Chapter 49 Waiter brings the wine!
"Old Huang, you're asking for a fight!"
"Hey, hey, hey, Master! Be careful, the wine is spilled! The wine is spilled! It's pouring into my mouth! Ah~"
"In your dreams!"
Zhou Xiucai, who had already sat back in his seat, felt better, but he couldn't help blushing. Suddenly, he heard Zhang Fan muttering in his ear.
It may not sound new at first, but it becomes the icing on the cake later on. I didn't expect that the shopkeeper had such literary talent and also repeated it in a way.
"One piece, two pieces, three pieces, four pieces,"
"Five, six, eight, nine."
"Thousands and thousands of pieces, countless pieces,"
"Fly into the plum blossoms and never disappear."
"What a great poem! Mr. Zhou, you must have been hiding your talent just now! Old Huang made me look bad. No, one of us has to go! Come on!"
Xu Fengnian, who was playing around, heard Zhou Xiucai repeating the poem that Zhang Fan had just recited, and thought it was Zhou Xiucai who wrote it. He was an expert at appreciating poetry, and looked indignant. He stopped playing around with Lao Huang and picked up the wine bowl to clink glasses with Zhou Xiucai.
"It's not me! It's not me! It's Shopkeeper Zhang! It's him!"
Mr. Zhou quickly waved his hands and shook his head. He couldn't drink any more. Besides, the poem was written by Manager Zhang. It had nothing to do with him!
"I didn't expect Mr. Zhang to have such a talent for poetry!"
Old Huang was also shocked. He didn't expect that the innkeeper was not only a top-notch martial artist, but also a talented writer. He had never met such a person in his six thousand miles journey!
"The writing is natural, it was created by a skilled hand! Please excuse me! Please excuse me!"
Zhang Fan didn't blush despite being drunk, and he couldn't say anything else if asked.
"Shopkeeper! That's awesome!"
"That's right! That's right! I just regret that I have never been educated. I can say "fuck" to everyone."
The two younger ones were also shocked. After Zhu Wuliu finished speaking, he pretended to be shy like a daughter, which made them feel sick.
However, I never expected that my boss also has such literary talent, but he usually keeps a low profile. It’s only been a while since he followed Mr. Zhou to learn from him. Why not listen to him secretly tomorrow?
"Shopkeeper Zhang is truly the real deal!" Mr. Zhou also sighed. He would never be able to learn this sentence even if he studied for another 20 years!
"That's right, Brother Zhang, do you have any more songs? Play one more! I'll show off to someone when I get home!"
Xu Fengnian watched from the side. Anyway, Nanqing was so far away from Beiliang. When he returned to the palace, he would tell the old man that he did it. Others should be looked at with new eyes after three days of absence, so it's not surprising that I have come to my senses after three years.
"That's right! That's right! Shopkeeper Zhang, show me some more of your skills, Old Huang."
Old Huang knew what Xu Fengnian was thinking without even moving his eyes!
The two boys next to them also joined in the fun, and Mr. Zhou was watching eagerly.
Master Li was also busy adding bowls of hot oil soup to a few people, and also staring at Zhang Fan.
Where can I find poetry here!
"Really? It's all gone! It's just a fluke, it's just a fluke. I just learned to read from Mr. Zhou. I really don't have any ink left!"
Zhang Fan began to stutter as he said this, and without even looking at the bowl of hot soup that Master Li had just served.
Seeing this, several people stopped urging, Zhao Hengjiang, Zhu Wuliu and Lao Huang picked it up and smelled it, and exclaimed, "It smells really good!"
Zhang Fan also forgot that the soup was made with two blocks of hot pot oil!
They all drank it in one gulp, and ended up vomiting all over the place in an instant. They quickly poured out some wine to clear their mouths, and ran straight to the riverside in no time!
Xu Fengnian drank a bowl of wine and laughed loudly, but his voice was hoarse. They pointed at each other happily.
Now he forgot about continuing to write poetry and just drank and talked nonsense.
Unexpectedly, Master Li was also a good soldier in the past. When they were fighting, Nanqing annexed Xishu, Nanming stationed Nantang, and the two kingdoms joined Liyang to annex Xichu. The military stories were also very interesting to them. Zhao Hengjiang also clamored that he would join the army in the future and become a general and lieutenant. He even thought of the name of the military camp directly under him, which was called Hengjiang Camp!
Before he could finish his words, Master Li hit him on the back of his head again, scolded him for being ungrateful, and talked about the Northern Liang Cavalry he met in Western Chu. The Northern Liang Cavalry was the best in the world!
But after hearing this, Zhao Hengjiang lowered his head, still with a look of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and still wanted to join the army, so Master Li hit him twice more.
But no one noticed that Xu Fengnian and Lao Huang just shook their heads. The little people in Yuzhou city didn’t know that the Beiliang Iron Cavalry is the best in the world, and the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry is the hero of Beiliang!
The Great Snow Dragon Riders are the real elite of Beiliang!
Zhang Fan also said a few words of persuasion, and the atmosphere became heated again. After a few bowls of wine, Xu Fengnian thought about reciting a few lines of poetry to scare the old man. This Zhou Xiucai is an old scholar, and he must have a lot of knowledge.
There was another round of heated chat. They simply took away the pot and made the fire bigger. Since there was no food left, they could just pick something from the nearby fields.
Xu Fengnian got a lot of good things from Zhou Xiucai. The two little ones also pricked up their ears and played the supporting role from time to time. They clinked glasses again. Zhou Xiucai became happier and happier as he talked, and even made Zhang Fan drunk.
Zhang Fan also hadn't used his true Qi to get rid of the effects of the alcohol, and he was dazed as he listened to Mr. Zhou talking about something like a river or a river.
The river breeze made him even more drunk. All of a sudden, the frustration and emotions he had been thinking about the future for the past few days reached its peak. He suddenly stood up, picked up the jar of wine, and walked straight to the river. He circulated his internal energy, broke off a straight branch, and performed a set of sword techniques with a cold light flashing in all directions, leaving several people confused.
"It seems that Manager Zhang is not feeling happy either!" Old Huang sighed as he looked at him.
Master Li looked at Zhang Fan with concern and said, "Yes! Old Huang, the boss has been feeling depressed lately. Business in the store is really bad. We only see people coming to learn those body-building techniques, but no one comes into the store to eat!"
"Yes! That's why I invited Shopkeeper Zhang to go out for an outing today to relieve my boredom!"
Mr. Zhou also joined in, saying that Manager Zhang was a good man and he also wanted to help.
"How could that be? Your food is so delicious, how come no one is here? The food in Yuzhou City is so good!"
Xu Fengnian looked unconvinced.
"You don't know, my shopkeeper"
Zhu Wuliu's mind also moved. He could take this opportunity to ask everyone for help. He still remembered his previous idea. The inn was ready for preparation. After that, the business would definitely pick up with the crabs and dog meat!
But before he could finish, he heard Zhang Fan let out a long roar!
"Have you not seen! The water of the great river is born from nature! It flows to the sea and never returns."
A sword was swung out, and a cold light flashed. Several people who had just clinked their glasses and wanted to drink were stunned. Even Old Huang did not notice that the Jiannanchun wine dripped into the mud from the tilted mouth of the bowl.
"I was born with a talent that will be useful! Even if I lose all my money, I will get it back."
After a few words, another sword was swung out. Zhou Xiucai felt his heart tremble and his mind became clear. Maybe he shouldn't give up!
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Huang, let's drink, don't stop."
Old Huang was already shocked, and now he was ecstatic. This is a famous article. I, Old Huang, will be remembered forever!
"The King of Liang held a banquet at Yishan in the past"
Xu Fengnian was happy. This was great, just right. It was just a pity that Zhao Changling was missing!
"A horse with five colors and a fur coat worth thousands of gold. I will call my son to exchange it for good wine, so that I can share my eternal sorrow with you all night long!"
The two little ones were also happy. Which one was obviously the second one? When they went out and were asked by others, they said they were also in the poem and they drank the wine.
Old Huang didn't feel sorry for the wasted Jiannanchun at this moment. He just stared at his silly son and said to himself, "Don't learn this poem. If you learn it, something bad will happen. You are not worthy of it!"
After Zhang Fan finished thinking this, he stood still, with the straight branches broken all over the ground. He slowly picked up the wine and poured a sip into his mouth, but it was gone. He couldn't hold back the alcohol anymore and it poured all over the ground.
Mr. Zhou and Master Li rushed over to check, but they heard Zhang Fan lying on the ground in a daze. Suddenly, he raised the wine jar and shouted, "Waiter! Bring me some wine!"
End of today!
I feel like I was having a blast writing this, and the foreshadowing seems a bit too great. Please forgive me for that. I will give all the original characters an ending. Thank you!
