I formed the strongest swordsman group.

Chapter 781 Cheers to the newlyweds! [4800]

Kinoshita Lin's palms were rough...but warm.

While Qing Deng felt the warmth coming from his forehead, he looked at the old man who was approaching him in surprise.

The other person's eyes and expression no longer had the strength and "sharpness" they had before.

What replaced it was the kindness that was unique to the elderly.

——She...agreed?

Although his reason had not yet caught up with reality, his ears heard it very clearly: Kinoshita Lin agreed to his marriage with Kinoshita Mai, as well as his idea of ​​"three wives"!

——You agreed so easily?!

In addition to being surprised, Qing Deng was once again shocked by Kinoshita Lin's efficiency.

Not only did she readily agree to the marriage, but she also helped them choose a suitable date for the wedding.

This this……? !

Just now he kept calling me a "brother" and looked tough as if to say "You think you can marry my granddaughter?"

And now, in addition to a 180-degree change in demeanor, even the wedding date has been chosen for them.

This huge contrast caused Qing Deng's body to suddenly stiffen.

For a moment, he didn't know what expression to make.

Another person who was equally at a loss was Mai Kinoshita who was standing next to her.

After listening to Qing Deng's heartfelt words just now, she was deeply moved.

She didn't even know that Qing Deng viewed them this way.

Not only a lover, but also an unparalleled "pillar"!
If it weren't for the presence of Kinoshita Lin and Boss Kiryu, her shy personality would have suppressed her surging impulse, and she would have pounced on him and hugged Qing Deng tightly.

Before she could recover from the shock, Kinoshita Lin announced bluntly, "I agree to your marriage! You can get married on New Year's Eve!"... The roller coaster-like emotional ups and downs caused Kinoshita Mai's brain to crash briefly.

Facing the surprised looks from the two, Kinoshita Lin tilted her head and asked half-jokingly:

"What? Did all the words I just said go in vain?"

"I have made myself very clear."

"As long as Wu is my legal wife and as long as she is loved, I will gladly accept him as my husband."

"Since you are qualified, why should I disagree?"

At this time, Qing Deng had returned to his serious and resolute attitude.

He nodded vigorously, his tone was extremely firm, and the momentum of his response was as strong as thunder falling from the sky:

"Ms. Kinoshita... No, grandma, please leave Wu to me!"

The corners of Kinoshita Lin's mouth stretched to the sides, and the look of relief on her cheeks became even more intense.

To be honest, Qing Deng originally thought that there would be the classic scene of "If you want to marry my granddaughter, you must defeat me first."

He was even ready to fight with Kinoshita Rin.

Until now, after seeing a number of very capable old men such as Boss Kiryu, Yahachi Makimura, and Seiichiro Otani, Qing Deng no longer judges a person's strength based on his age.

Even if the white-haired Kinoshita Lin possessed the powerful strength of Ikki Tousen, he would not be surprised.

Rather, if Kinoshita Lin was an extremely powerful and unrivaled woman, it would be more in line with Qing Deng's prior expectations of her.

The other party seemed to see through his thoughts and chuckled a few times.

She changed her name for Qing Deng back to "An Yi":
"Aki, do you think I'm a monster like Jiulang?"

As she spoke, she raised her left hand to show Qing Deng her slender, dry arm.

"At my age, I can no longer wield a sword."

"But... that's true."

"Awu is my 'treasure'. It really makes me feel uncomfortable to just give it to you for nothing."

"I really have to set some 'challenges' for you!"

After Qing Deng heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

"...Grandma, you are not going to send all the fighting forces of the Calabash House to fight me, are you?"

Kinoshita Lin waved her hand.

"Marriage is the most joyous event in the world. Fighting and killing are so unlucky."

"Let's try a more civilized form of challenge!"

After saying that, she turned to look at Boss Kiryu beside her.

"Jiulang, bring us the good stuff from Lucia that just arrived a while ago."

Boss Kiryu's eyebrows trembled slightly, and the corners of his lips curved slightly, revealing a strange expression that seemed like a smile but not a smile.

"My Lord, are you sure?"

"Of course! Go get it!"

Boss Kiryu said no more, replied "yes", stood up, and strode out of the dojo.

Russia - the Russians.

"Russia" is the transliteration of "Russia". In the Edo period, the Japanese always called the Russians "Russia".

Speaking of goods related to the Russians...all Qing Deng could think of were leather and spirits.

——Wait, strong liquor…?
Suddenly, Qing Deng had a bad feeling in his heart...

It wasn't long before Boss Kiryu returned to the dojo - with a large wooden box in his arms.

"My Lord, the goods are all here."

He sat back down and pushed the large wooden box to Kinoshita Rin's knees.

"Well, thank you for your hard work!"

Kinoshita Lin opened the wooden box and said mysteriously to Qing Deng:
"An Yi, the things in this box are really rare and good stuff in the market."

As soon as she finished speaking, the box opened - 30 glass bottles were arranged in five neat rows and six columns, filling the box to the brim, and clear liquid was flowing inside the bottles.

"This is a strong liquor produced in Russia, called 'Vodka'."

"This wine is really strong. Nuo wine, sake and the like cannot compare to it."

As she spoke, she casually took out a bottle of vodka from the box and threw it to Qing Deng.

"An Yi, come and have a drink!"

"How can we not drink on such a happy day?"

"I won't let you go until I have my fill."

Looking at the vodka in his hand, Qing Deng swallowed hard.

Vodka...this is indeed a good product from Russia!
Even people who know nothing about alcohol have more or less heard of vodka.

Vodka is made from grains or potatoes, which are distilled into an alcohol content of up to 95%, and then diluted with distilled water to 40 to 60 degrees.

The wine is crystal clear, colorless, light and refreshing, leaving people with a taste that is neither sweet, bitter nor astringent, but just a fiery stimulation, which forms the unique characteristics of vodka.

Because it tastes great and has no pungent smell, it is easy to drink too much and get drunk or even die if you are not careful.

The alcohol content of vodka commonly found on the market is mostly 40% alcohol.

The vodka with the highest alcohol content is the famous "water of life" Polish distilled vodka - its alcohol content is 96 degrees. If you throw a flame into it, it will burn directly, which is better than gasoline.

Qing Deng didn't understand Russian, so he couldn't tell the alcohol content of the bottle of vodka in his hand.

With the blessing of the talents "Drunkard +3" and "Cow's Liver", Qing Deng's alcohol tolerance and liver's tolerance to alcohol are both very strong.

[Note: Drunkard +3: Can drink more than the average person.]

[Note: Cow liver: excellent liver function]

But...each bottle of wine in the box is about 700 ml.

He looked at the wine in his hand, and then at the 29 bottles of wine left in the box... To be honest, he didn't think that his "Drinking Power +3" and "Beef Liver" could withstand such a challenge!
As a last resort, he cautiously suggested:
"Grandma, you are not young anymore. It's not appropriate for you to drink such strong liquor, right?"

"Ah? What are you talking about?"

Kinoshita Lin looked at Qing Deng with a strange expression - there was a cunning gleam in her eyes.

"I'm an old man, I can't drink such strong liquor."

"Of course you drink vodka and I drink red bean soup."

Crack—Qing Deng seemed to hear the sound of his body turning to stone.

Kinoshita Mai looked anxious.

Judging from her appearance, she should be well aware of the "power" of vodka.

She cried out in great anxiety:

"Grandma, a box full of vodka, this will kill you, right?"

Kinoshita Lin responded calmly:
"Awu, be patient."

"I'm not a devil, how could I force you to do anything?" "I don't want to torture An Yi."

"I just simply wanted to see his ugly appearance after getting drunk, to satisfy my sadism... my curiosity."

Although she changed her words in time, Qing Deng still heard the word "terrible".

Qing Deng realized belatedly that under Kinoshita Lin's kind appearance, there seemed to be a very strange habit hidden...

At this time, Kinoshita Lin seemed to remember something and turned to Kiryu Boss and said:

"Oh, yes, this is a rare opportunity, let's call Shichibei and Katsurokuro as well."

Shichibei, Katsurokuro——When he heard these two names, a hint of joy suddenly appeared between Boss Kiryu's brows.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Click, click, click... Mr. Kiryu's footsteps quickly faded away and disappeared.

This time, he was away for a long time.

While waiting silently, Qing Deng asked Kinoshita Lin:
"Grandma, who are Shichibei and Katsurokuro?"

"They are my old friends."

As she answered, a look of nostalgia appeared on her face.

"Kuro, Yahachi, Shichibei, Katsurokuro, these four were my first companions."

Yahachi - that is, the "Dragon of Kyoto" Makimura Yahachi.

“They’ve been following my lead since I was a teenager.”

"I am very lucky to have such a group of like-minded companions."

“Thanks to their strong support, I am able to survive and achieve success today.”

"Kuro and Yahachi are both the kind of people who can't sit still."

"Even though I told them to rest and take care of themselves, they still fought on the front line."

"As for Shichibei and Katsurokuro, they are just like me, they can no longer wield swords."

"So now they live a leisurely life every day, wandering around the streets doing nothing during the day, and playing chess, drinking and reading novels at night."

"Although they always complain to me that it's 'too boring', I think their current life is pretty good."

"They have been busy for most of their lives and have shed countless blood and sweat. It's time for them to enjoy a peaceful life."

After hearing this, Qing Deng silently calculated in his mind:
Since these two people, like Boss Kiryu and Yahachi Makimura, were Rin Kinoshita's original companions, they must be at least in their eighties or nineties.

Thinking of this, Qing Deng couldn't help but secretly gasp:

"Grandma, you and your companions are all so long-lived..."

Kinoshita Lin smiled:
"Maybe it's because we've done so many good things, so God wants to reward us."

Kinoshita Lin said that she and her old friends can no longer wield knives... To be honest, Qing Deng only has reservations about her statement and does not completely believe it.

His other master, Kondo Shusuke, always said, "My waist hurts so much."

But when he grasped the sword, it was as if his muscle memory had revived! He was unstoppable! There was no sign of back pain at all.

At this time, Boss Kiryu returned - with two white-haired old men behind him.

One of them was tall and slender, and although his face was dominated by thick wrinkles, it still could not hide his regular and handsome features.

It is not difficult to see that this man was definitely a handsome and suave guy when he was young.

In comparison, the other person seemed more ordinary. His face and figure were very ordinary, the type that would be lost if thrown into a crowd.

"Jujun, let me introduce you."

Boss Kiryu pointed at the handsome old man.

"This is Asai Shichirobei."

Then he pointed to the ordinary old man.

"This is Shimada Katsurokuro."

Asai, Shimada——Qing Deng raised his eyebrows when he heard these two nicknames.

"Asai, Shimada... Mr. Kiryu, are they the grandfathers of 'Dual Power Man' Asai Moriyasu and 'Thunder Slasher' Shimada Kanichi?"

Boss Kiryu nodded:

"That's right. You're very perceptive. You guessed it so quickly."

Qing Deng looked at the two old men - and they were also looking at him.

"Tachibana Aki, nice to meet you. My name is Asai Shichirobei."

Asai Shichirobei bowed and introduced himself to Qingdeng politely.

Katsurokuro Shimada followed closely and also reported to Qingdeng's home.

"We have just heard the specific details from Jiulang."

Asai Shichirobei said this, he tilted his head and looked at Kinoshita Mai with tenderness on his face.

"Awu, congratulations."

Shimada Katsurokuro smiled and took over the conversation:

"That little girl is married now... It's true that the older you get, the faster time goes by."

Kinoshita Mai blushed and shyly accepted their congratulations:

"Thank you, thank you!"

After congratulating Qing Deng and Kinoshita Mai, the two of them sat down very naturally next to Kinoshita Lin and Boss Kiryu.

Shimada Katsurokuro looked at the old friends on both sides and chuckled a few times:
“This lineup brings me back to the old days.”

Asai Shichirobei echoed:
"It's a pity that we're still missing Mucun. This guy happened to go to the northeast to do some work at this time. If he were here too, we'd really have all the people."

A smile appeared on Kiryu's cheeks:

"When Calabash House was just founded and there were only a few of us, those were my glorious years... I really miss them."

Kinoshita Lin raised the corner of her mouth:
"From today on, our big family will have a new member."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned their heads to look at Qing Deng.

Boss Kiryu spread his hands:

"Yeah, that's true. One more thing worth remembering."

Suddenly, Asai Shichirobei reached out and hooked Qingdeng's shoulder.

"Tachibana Aki, since we are already family, you cannot refuse this cocktail party today! We won't leave until we are drunk!"

After saying that, he casually picked up a bottle of vodka from the box and skillfully unscrewed the lid with his bare hands.

Immediately afterwards, Boss Kiryu and Katsurokuro Shimada were not to be outdone. They both reached out and each took out a bottle of vodka from the box.

Without saying a word, he grabbed the vodka in his hand... The heroic act of these three old men scared Qing Deng.

Boss Kiryu saw through Qing Deng's shock and explained:

"Jujun, there's no need to be surprised."

"Master Genichi is very fond of Russian liquor, especially vodka."

“When he was alive, he always recommended vodka to us.”

"Under his influence, we got used to the taste of vodka very early on."

Asai Shichirobei added with a smile:
"We usually drink vodka like water, so don't worry about our health. You might have collapsed, but we are just getting high."

Just when Qing Deng was shocked by the old men's strong drinking capacity, he suddenly smelled the aroma of red bean soup - red bean soup suddenly appeared in the hands of Kinoshita Lin and Kinoshita Mai, which came from nowhere.

"Anyway, let me just give a speech first."

Kinoshita Lin picked up the red bean soup and changed to a loud voice:

"Well...even though they haven't gotten married yet, let's just consider it as a toast to the newlyweds in advance!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

Immediately afterwards, the old men led by Boss Kiryu raised their bottles and drank "tons, ton, ton".

Seeing this, Qing Deng gritted his teeth - influenced by the current atmosphere, his emotions have been fully aroused!
He tilted his head back and drank it in one heroic gulp. A wave of pleasure went straight through his throat and esophagus.

Kinoshita Lin slapped her thigh.

"Haha! Not bad! Very generous!"

The aroma of wine overflows.

Also overflowing is the air of joy.
