There's a tavern here

Chapter 2 Ning Caichen

When Fang Bie looked at the tasks on the Fuhualu with great interest, he already had a rough idea in his heart. Lanruo ghost locust tree is probably a monster in Lanruo Temple. At the moment, he happens to live in Jinhua City, which saves some effort .

Traveling halfway around the world, the so-called gods, ghosts and monsters are rare, but they have had some contact. For Fang Bie, if they meet, it will only add a few more dead souls under the sword.

At this moment, Yan Chixia also came down from the second floor of this room, looking around, seeing that there was no one in the tavern except the two of them, so she was a little curious.

"Treasurer Fang, it's a pity that you have such good wine here but no one comes to patronize it."

"Why don't you consider moving the tavern to Kyoto, this Floating White is enough to become a masterpiece!"

Fang Bie shook his head after hearing the words: "This tavern is not for profit, but just to find a quiet place to drink and have fun, and to find friends."

"To come or not to come is just a matter of fate."

Yan Chixia was thoughtful after hearing this, and then bowed her hands to Fang Bie in silence.

"If everyone in the world were like Treasurer Fang, maybe someone would be a catcher in the imperial court, instead of being a demon slayer with a family around the world..."

Fang Bie was taken aback: "Although ghosts are creepy, compared with the fickle human heart, they can be regarded as sincere, but I didn't expect that Yan Daxia turned out to be a demon slayer."

The so-called Demon Slayer is a person who slays demons and slays demons in the world, and restores the righteous way, but he is also like walking on a cliff.

"Has Hero Yan ever heard of Lanruo Temple?"

"Of course I heard that last night I planned to go there after staying overnight and kill the evil spirits there."

"Treasurer Fang doesn't think you are very human. If you are interested, you can also go together."

Fang Bie nodded: "I heard that the one in Lanruo Temple is a ghost locust tree. I want to take its heart and make a good wine."

When Yan Chixia heard it, her eyes immediately lit up: "Then I will beg shopkeeper Fang to give someone a drink on the day the wine is finished."

Fang Bie smiled and said, "It's only natural."

The red sun was shining brightly, and it was already noon, Fang Bie and Yan Chixia also finished their conversation and went about their respective tasks.

A group of people also entered the music room at this time, looking at the exquisite and beautiful interior in amazement.

One of them exclaimed to a tall and strong swordsman: "Boss, I didn't expect there to be such an exquisite tavern in this little Jinhua!"

The swordsman also nodded and admitted: "But I don't know if the food and wine here are worthy of such a good place."

After finding a seat and sitting down, he shouted at Fang Bie: "Give me all your best wine and meat!"

Fang Bie frowned when he heard that, and immediately relaxed, went to the back kitchen to pick up two jars of Fushengbai and a large bowl of roast beef, and brought them up.

One of them, a gentleman who looked like a scholar, said to Fang Bie: "Wait, the shopkeeper is serving us a plate of peanuts!"

"Okay, please wait."

After doing all this, Fang Bie went back to the counter and meditated with his eyes closed, running the exercises in his body, prompting the internal force to form a cycle of its own, with a steady stream.

Fang Bie only practiced three sets of exercises in this life, one set of internal skills, one set of swordsmanship, and one set of footwork.

Because of his superhuman talent, he has achieved success in practice.

The internal strength makes him turn from the acquired to the innate, and ten thousand dharma does not invade; the swordsmanship is perfect, and the ghosts and gods are all cut;

Almost immortal.

Relying on these three sets of exercises, he has not had any worries about his life for 27 years, and has left many legends in various places.

Since that group of people came to the tavern, they became very lively, they were all shocked by the mellowness of Fu Sheng Bai's wine.

Then they exchanged cups and cups, from the trivial matters of life to family, country, and everything, dare to speak out with the strength of wine, if it weren't for the freedom of speech in the Great Xia Kingdom, otherwise these few people would probably be beheaded dozens of times up.

"Come on, have a drink!"

The sound of punching, bragging, and clinking glasses intersected endlessly, but Fang Bie didn't think it was noisy, but felt that a tavern should be like this!
But Fang Bie was attracted by a sentence they talked about.

The burly swordsman hooked the scholar's neck with one hand while clinking glasses and chatting with him.

"Brother Ning, have you heard recently? This Jinhua City is not peaceful. Every night, there are hundreds of ghosts walking around at night. The people dare not speak, and the dogs dare not bark."

"Because if you make a sound, that ghost will come to you and claim your life!"

The scholar wasn't frightened: "I've always been an upright person, and I'm upright. I'm afraid those brats won't be able to get close to me!"

"Hey, according to what you said, if a beautiful female ghost comes, you will not be blessed."

Ning Caichen said with a righteous face and a slightly red face: "I have never had any color in my life, so it is true what you said, I, Ning Caichen, will stand still."

But the swordsman laughed loudly: "This is not to persuade you to find a place to live in the city, and don't wander around outside at night, after all, there are really ghosts! Many people in Jinhua City have disappeared."

Ning Caichen: "Brother Li, don't say any more, I've made up my mind. After all, the journey is far away this time. If I live in the city, I'm afraid it will be a waste of time."

"Well, it can only follow your wishes."

"Okay, let's stop talking, drink! How can you miss the elegant mood of good wine because of this trivial matter!"

Another person said: "There is a mountain outside Jinhua City. On the mountain, the sun is covered by dark clouds all the year round. The trees wither and die, and the birds and beasts are ferocious. There is only a white flower on the top of the mountain. If it can be picked, I am afraid it will be enough for us." Eight lifetimes."

Someone else echoed: "I know, that mountain is called Black Mountain, and as for that flower...it seems to be called Huaxuehua."

"It's priceless, but many people want to pick it and end up with their lives. Later, it was spread that the mountain can eat people."

"This bullshit court didn't do anything about it, which caused those demons to act recklessly!"

Ning Caichen frowned at this moment: "If there was no imperial court, you and I would have been dead bones long ago. There must be a shadow under the colossus, and there is nothing we can do. Let's stop talking, have a drink, and come."

"Good! Good! It's just that the troubled times are not peaceful and there is nothing we can do..."

The wine is gone, the sun is already setting, and the wine game is coming to an end.

Ning Caichen stood up unsteadily and held the wine cup: "Brothers, I will leave the city to deliver the letter tomorrow. Thank you for the farewell wine. After I finish, I will definitely chat with you again!"

After finishing speaking, he drank the clear wine in the cup in one gulp, and made a deep bow to them.

The drinkers at that table also stood up one after another, drank the wine in one gulp, and made a bow.

They said in unison: "Brother Ning, have a good trip!"

After the swordsman paid for the drink, the group dispersed one by one, except for Ning Caichen who was still sitting there.

Fang Bie didn't bother in the past, but slowly sorted out the information just now.

He said to himself: "Then the current Huaxuehua is probably in the hands of the Black Mountain old demon, and Guihuaixin is in Lanruo Temple, oh, it's really a coincidence."

Then he set his sights on Ning Caichen.

After all, Fang Bie had heard about Ning Caichen's story in Liaozhai, but seeing him now is indeed novel.

Suddenly Ning Caichen shook his head, most of his drunkenness dissipated, at least he no longer swayed like a bamboo pole in the wind when he walked.

First, I walked to the window to look at the sun, and when I realized that it was getting late, I planned to leave.

Before leaving, he filled the previous wine cup with water, and said to Fang Bie, "Thank you shopkeeper for allowing us to taste such a fairy wine here. Now if the corpse is really exposed in the wilderness, Ning will have no regrets."

Then he drank all the water in the cup and cupped his fists to express his gratitude.

Fang Bie: "How can you say such unlucky words, then Fang is also staying here, brother Ning, and the journey is smooth!"

"Shopkeeper Cheng has kind intentions, that's right, if Ning leaves, what will happen to the wife and mother..."

Then Ning Caichen walked away from Here, and turned back after leaving the gate: "Farewell, goodbye!"

Fang Bie nodded and watched Ning Caichen leave until his figure disappeared without a trace.

Listening to what they were talking about, Fang Bie could think with his toes now that the place where Ning Caichen was going today would most likely be Lanruo Temple, and Yan Chixia would probably go there as well.

Thinking of this, Fang Bie couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth again. This was also the most interesting and exciting thing he had ever encountered recently.

In the huge Lanruo Temple, what can we do if we have one more party tonight?
