The Legend of Yaoxian's Departure

Chapter 259 Get drunk
The sky was frighteningly low, and the black clouds were billowing, as if they were about to collapse in the next moment.Such hot and sticky weather makes everyone feel bad. People on the street are in a hurry, so there are few customers in the restaurant, and the shop assistants are also lazy. Except for the girl who plays the pipa, who still sticks to her position, the others can If you don't move, don't move.

The shopkeeper stepped forward and slapped the waiter on the head: "Dare to be lazy, I think you don't want to do it!"

The shop clerk covered his head with an ouch, and said aggrievedly, "It's not my fault, it's all because of the bad weather. People are weak. Look, there are only ten people in this building including the cook, and eight of them are the shop assistants." , I just wanted to work but I didn’t.”

The shopkeeper's eyes widened, and he rolled up his sleeves to fight again: "Talk to me again! You don't know how to go to the street without customers!"

"That's so boring." The waiter looked disgusted: "Isn't this no different from the restaurant on the opposite street? This is a serious restaurant. Besides, I'm a man, and people don't like it."

The shopkeeper sneered and showed his face seriously: "What's the matter with the man, some high-ranking officials like this dish, I think you have a pretty face, maybe it just happens to be his dish."

The waiter couldn't help shivering, and slipped away with a hippie smile: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I'm going to work right now." Saying that, he ran away.

The shopkeeper was a little more satisfied now, looking out the window, the dusky sky was so stuffy that one couldn't breathe out: "Damn God, is it raining or not?" The shopkeeper shook his head and walked away .

Time passed, and it was probably time for dinner. Some customers came to the restaurant one after another, and it gradually became lively.

Mingruo walked into the restaurant in a daze, ordered a jar of dimples and drank in the private room on the second floor.Looking up, you can see the dim yellow sky outside the window. Under the sky is the rolling river water. Under the reflection, it loses its former brightness and becomes as dark as the sky.

Ming Ruo raised her head and took a sip of wine, trying to get herself drunk, it would be best to let herself be intoxicated in sleep forever.That way, he doesn't have to face the truth that breaks his heart.

The sound of the pipa in the restaurant was finished one by one, and changed to another one as usual.The sound of the clang and the zither is like falling pearls and jade, or like gold and iron horses.

Mingruo has never touched a musical instrument, but in the poetry books he has read before, there is a poet who wrote verses about pipa.Mingruo thinks it is especially suitable for this situation, and it's not just someone who has such superb piano skills, but falls into this wine shop.

My own affairs are still in a mess, and I don't care what others do.Ming Ruo gave a wry smile, and took another sip of wine as if mocking himself.It's not enough to deny it, but the sound of the piano made me feel much better.Mingruo began to close her eyes, letting herself be immersed in this wonderful music.

Suddenly, the sound of the piano stopped suddenly, Ming Ruo paused with his fingertips, opened his eyes suddenly, and subconsciously looked out the door.The door of the private room was closed tightly, and no movement could be seen outside the door, but the noisy and chaotic voices could not be stopped.

Mingruo drank a lot of wine, and his reaction was a little slow, but he still knew what was going on outside, so he walked over to open the door unsteadily.He wanted to see who interrupted his interest in listening to the music.

Downstairs, the woman playing the piano was holding a pipa and staring warily at the luxuriously dressed men surrounding her.The man teased the woman, and the woman's face turned red, not only angry but also ashamed.One person even reached out to touch her, but the shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward to laugh, trying to divert their attention.

The men were very annoyed at being interrupted, and pushed the shopkeeper away, cursing.Then he went to catch the woman again, but the woman reprimanded loudly and dodged again and again.But the women are not as physically strong as the men after all, and there are so many of them, and the women are still holding a heavy pipa, so they are surrounded by men after a while.

The men didn't grab her all at once, but just like teasing their pets, seeing the woman's anxious red eyes was like seeing a grinning puppy, and laughed.

Perhaps having played enough, the men decide to grab her and end the drama.Just as they rushed over, the air was suddenly cut by something, and the men wailed and lay on the ground.

The people in the restaurant were still nervous about the woman, but the sudden change made everyone dumbfounded.How is this going?And the wine glasses that hit the men spun around in the air, as if they were alive, and returned to his master.

People's eyes followed the wine glass, and saw a handsome young man sitting on the railing on the second floor, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it with his head raised.Everyone was stunned for a moment, the men on the ground were ashamed and annoyed when they saw the beating man clearly, maybe because they had been drinking and their brains were not working, they even got up and rushed to the second floor to find Ming Ruo's trouble.When they came towards him aggressively cursing, Ming Ruo turned over and jumped off the second floor, took a sip from the wine jar, his figure was a little swaying, as if he was drunk and couldn't stand up.

The onlookers originally thought he was a master, but seeing him like this couldn't help but make their eyes twitch. It was really impossible to combine this young man who couldn't even stand firmly with the master who just subdued everyone with a wine glass.However, some people thought inwardly that his drinking posture just now was quite coquettish. At such a young age, he must be a beautiful man who will bring disaster to the country and the people in the future.

The men who had just climbed up to the second floor saw Ming Ruo jumping down, and their hearts rushed to their foreheads, and they chose to take the stairs before going down with a little self-knowledge.Some felt that if he dared to jump, he had to jump, otherwise he would lose face.So there was another noise in the restaurant, and the shopkeeper was a pain in the ass.

A man barely stood up, helped the hair crown on his head, pointed at Mingruo and said viciously: "Where did you come from, a mountain boy, you dare to meddle in your grandpa's business, you don't want to live!"

Mingruo took a sip of wine as if no one was there, and the Pipa girl hid beside him, an imperceptible light flashed in her eyes, and then she looked startled, and asked for help beside him aggrievedly: "Please!" Hero, help."

I don't know if the woman's words played a role, Mingruo opened his misty eyes, as if misty, the boy's eyes became deep in an instant, not like a boy's deep.

"who are you?"

The young man held back for a long time, and his words disappointed everyone's expectations, and at the same time made the man feel aggrieved.

There are still people in Kyoto who don't know his name. The man patted his chest arrogantly, and said with a grin: "I can't scare you to death. I am Long Tianxu, the son of Duke Ning."

The people present naturally did not dare to make a move because they knew his identity. If anyone noticed Pipa Girl, they would find that her expression was very strange for a moment, as if she was a little disgusted, like a pig wearing a good pair of clothes.

Long Tianxu saw that Mingruo didn't speak, thought he was cowardly, and returned to his arrogant appearance, thinking of the predicament just now, his teeth itch with hatred.

"I can tell you, even if you kowtow to me a hundred times today, it's useless!"

"Long Tianxu." Ming Ruo seemed a little confused, reading his name word by word, and before Long Tianxu delivered the goods, he said again: "Who is it?"

"Little bastard, you don't want to leave today, let me do it!" The men behind Long Tianxu swarmed up.

After a while, people passing by the restaurant will see such a scene.A group of men, disheveled and tied up by their clothes, were kicked out into a ball, twisted and entangled with each other. If someone was bold enough to get close to them, they would be able to pull out a dude from Ningguo's family among a pair of people with bruised noses and swollen faces.

Someone in the crowd shouted: "Long Tianxu from Ningguo's family has been beaten, come and see!"

Everyone in the restaurant who had witnessed everything also heard it, and wanted to go out and communicate with people, so they all got up and left the restaurant calmly.

But the assailant didn't realize it, and threw down the empty wine jar casually.

"Serve the wine." Under the complicated eyes of the shopkeeper, he walked upstairs.

The door on the second floor was closed, and the waiter looked at the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper waved his hand and motioned him to get the wine, then walked to the side of the Pipa girl, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Boss, what should you do now?" ? The one who was beaten belonged to Ningguo's family, and it was the most unreasonable, if..."

The pipa girl raised her hand to stop her, looked at the private room on the second floor, she looked calm and did not take this matter to heart at all, the waiter went over with a jar of wine, the pipa girl stopped him, and took the wine in his hand , holding the skirt and walking up.The shopkeeper and the waiter who stayed behind were stunned. Could it be that the owner has taken a fancy to that kid?

Mingruo shook the flagon on the table, and the last drop of wine in it had already entered his stomach, Mingruo threw the flagon casually, lying on the table, and murmured: "Come here, serve the wine. "

The door opened in good time, Mingruo didn't look back, there was the sound of objects colliding on the table, Mingruo knew that someone had brought the wine, so he slapped a few pieces of silver on the table.Generally speaking, the shop assistant will say a few auspicious words and then leave after receiving a tip, but Mingruo waited for a long time, but still didn't hear anything, and he didn't care about it, he thought the shop waiter had already left, but when he looked up, A woman stood before him.

Seeing that Ming Ruo saw him, the woman showed joy on her face, shyly and excitedly called out: "Master."

Ming Ruo frowned slightly: "Who are you?"

"I..." The woman was a little dazed, obviously because Ming Ruo saved her but acted like she didn't know her at all.

"Little girl Meixi, thank you for your generosity and help." Meixi explained, looking at Mingruo's dazed look, obviously still drunk.

After thinking about it, Mingruo realized that she was the one who played the piano just now.

"Oh." Mingruo picked up the wine jar and poured a glass of wine with a blank expression: "The person who made things difficult for you has already left, what are you still doing here?"
