Chapter 18 The Unexpected Incident

Leng Rui felt strongly that Qing'er, at such a young age, was extremely power-hungry.

I thought I was just playing house with her, but she actually took it seriously.

I originally wanted to study the fluorescent stone the size of a pigeon egg, but now that two unfamiliar people are present, I can only do it.

"Now I appoint Liu Guangcai as the leader of the Fierce Fire Hall and Han Fang as the leader of the Jingshui Hall. The two of them must strictly abide by the gang rules and must not disobey orders. Otherwise, they will be dealt with according to the gang rules." Qing'er announced seriously, with a small face.

He had a serious look on his face, and it looked like he was extremely serious.

Leng Rui wanted to laugh but didn't dare. He was very familiar with this plot. He had listened to storytelling and watched movies since he was a child, and there were many similar scenes.

"Thank you, gang leader!" Liu Guangcai and Han Fang agreed in unison, with serious expressions on their faces.

Looking at the serious expressions of the three of them, Leng Rui felt somewhat emotional.

Yes! What young man doesn’t have dreams? In this young age, young people dare to dream the most.

The cold wind, the yellow sand of the desert, riding a horse, traveling to the end of the world with a sword, eradicating violence, killing the rich and helping the poor, this is a dream that countless people have had.

Maybe this seemingly playful world will really break out of the world.

Leng Rui no longer laughed secretly, but sincerely blessed this small "street organization".

These days, Leng Rui's heart is itching.

Whenever I have free time, I sit at the door of Tong Sin Hall and look at the two fluorescent stone lamps in front of the Zuixianfang door opposite.

"What wonderful things are placed at the door to bask in the sun! Lao Xiao is too extravagant." Leng Rui always felt a little regretful in his heart.

Hongyun saw this and snickered in her heart: "Sandouzi has grown up, and he is thinking about this little girl every day!"

Dahu and Erniu also snickered, and the third junior brother was stunned. He looked at the door opposite him every day, his eyes still blank.

Qing'er would come over sometimes and sit with Leng Rui for a while.

Seeing Leng Rui's eyes always looking straight at the fluorescent stone lamp, I thought Leng Rui was homesick again.

"If you think about it carefully, besides fluorescent stone lamps, what other things do you have in your hometown? Do your parents still remember them?" Qing'er asked softly.

"Remember!" Leng Rui's eyes were moist. He didn't know if he could return to Earth to see his parents again.

"Didn't you say you are an orphan?" Qing'er asked softly.

"No, I have parents!" Leng Rui's voice was soft but firm.

"Then why did you come to Wangjing?"

Leng Rui shook his head. He didn't know how to answer, so he could only choose not to answer.

"Qing'er, is your father's new wine good?" Hongyun appeared behind the two of them at some point and asked with a smile.

Leng Rui was startled. This woman was like a cat and made no sound when walking.

Qing'er was also startled. When she saw it was Hongyun, she stammered: "Sister Hongyun, you scared me to death! That wine, that wine has been brewed."

"Really? You promised to let me have a try!" Hongyun's voice was tender.

Regardless of her appearance, she sounds like a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.

"It was just cooked yesterday. My dad said there was not enough time and it needs to be kept for a while before it tastes good." Qing'er explained.

"I know, but I like to drink new wine." Hongyun said with a smile.

"Yes!" Qing'er agreed and quickly ran back to Zuixianfang.

Not long after, Qing'er ran out again, followed by Xiao Jun, holding a jar in his hand.

"I heard that Taoist Master Hongyun wanted to taste my new wine. Xiao didn't dare to hide his secrets, so he came here specially to ask the Taoist Master to try it."

Xiao Jun greeted me warmly from afar.

"Keke! Hongyun was just joking. He was joking with sister Qing'er. Shopkeeper Xiao actually took it seriously, which made people feel embarrassed." Hongyun looked shy, his face was reddish, and his voice was greasy.

Leng Rui's scalp went numb after hearing this. How old is this old woman and she still pretends to be young?

Xiao Jun seemed disapproving and secretly nodded to Leng Rui, put down the wine jar, took out two jade cups from his arms, and filled them with wine one by one.

"Please!" Xiao Jun made a polite gesture of invitation to Hongyun.

Leng Rui had a sharp nose and was extremely sensitive to smells. As soon as he opened the wine jar, he could already smell the smell of wine. It turned out that the unpleasant smell in the wine had completely disappeared.

"Yes, Lao Xiao has improved very quickly!" Leng Rui praised secretly in his heart.

Hongyun was not polite. He picked up the wine glass, put it under his nose and smelled it. He took a small sip and rolled it between his tongue. He closed his eyes slightly and seemed to be savoring it with his heart.

Xiao Jun looked at Hongyun nervously and waited quietly without saying a word.

After a long time, Hongyun opened her eyes, showing a hint of joy.

She stretched out her white left palm and poured a drop into her palm. A drop of crystal wine was spinning in her palm.

I don’t know what technique she used, but the drop of wine began to emit white steam and evaporated in an instant.

Hongyun raised her left hand, put it under her nose and smelled it again, with a somewhat disappointed look on her face.

"Shopkeeper Xiao, this wine has a pure aroma and a sweet aftertaste, but it's more gentle than strong."

Hongyun said with a slight smile, and at the same time raised his hand and drank a glass of wine.

"Thank you, Taoist Priest, for your advice!" Xiao Jun bowed deeply.

However, his heart was no longer calm and was in turmoil.

He was shocked. Before the wine was brewed, Sangouzi had already predicted that it could only be a third-rate wine.

Looking at it now, it turns out that these three dogs are the hidden masters.

He glanced at Leng Rui secretly, feeling puzzled. How could such a stupid kid know so much?

Leng Rui was also a little curious. Hongyun, who didn't know how old she was, was actually a master in the wine industry. She had never seen her drinking before!

Something even more surprising happened to Leng Rui. He saw Hongyun patting the wine jar with her hand, and a stream of wine arrows rushed out from the jar. In a few breaths, all of them entered Hongyun's mouth.

"After three years of maturation, this wine will definitely sell well!" Hongyun licked the corner of her lips and said with unfinished meaning.

"Xie Daochang Jiyan, Xiao also plans to start selling it in three years."

Hongyun didn't speak any more. There was a blush on her face and she looked a little tipsy.

Her eyes, which were usually twitchy and full of spring, were much calmer.

Leng Rui was a little surprised. What did this mean woman think of?

"Sangouzi! Do you think your wife is a little strange?" Hongyun felt Leng Rui's gaze and said with a slight smile.

Leng Rui showed his usual dullness and remained silent. He didn't want to get too entangled with this woman.

"Hmph! Your wife was also a flower on Ziyun Mountain back then, and she drank countless fine wines!"

Hongyun returned to his usual demeanor and said a little complacently.

Others didn't feel it, but Leng Rui heard a hint of sadness in her words.

"Junior sister! You drank too much again!" Yun Huo's dissatisfied voice suddenly came from the room.

A few days later, at the entrance of the Tiandi Synagogue, the expression on the face of Han Fang, the master of Jingshui Hall, was mysterious, and her two thin lips were constantly moving.

"Have you heard? There's something big going on in the city! The owner of Moonlight Garden who sells lamps is going crazy because many of their lights don't work. I heard that the boss suspects someone is causing trouble..."
