Chapter 623 Strange Wine

"So, we can't be secret guards! He's deaf, dumb and lame, so he must have a great skill. Otherwise, how could Mr. Bai entrust his safety to him?"

"Hmm... That makes sense."

Xiao Wei frowned and listened to their analysis, and suddenly felt that the guards of the City Lord's Mansion seemed to have followed Wang Susu in temperament. They really had strong limbs and simple minds...

"Okay, okay, let's not stay here and go out to chat." Xiao Weibei knew that Ning and Bai must have something to tell Wu Sheng, so he simply took these people out.

"Sir, what do you want me to do?" Wu Sheng originally followed them into the guest courtyard and was about to find a tall tree to rest.

Originally, when he followed Bai Chengzhi, he hung on the beams of the house all day long. But the master had ordered that every time he stayed with Miss Ye, Wu Sheng must not enter without instructions.

Just before Bai Chengzhi entered the west wing, he made a gesture with his hands behind his back, and Wu Sheng knew that the young master had something to give him.

"Ask them to check on the storyteller in the restaurant today. Find out who he has been interacting with these days, where he lives, and what he does on weekdays. The more detailed information about him, the better."

Wu Sheng naturally knew that the "them" Bai Chengzhi was talking about were other secret guards outside the city lord's palace. He didn't need to check these, he just wanted to pass on the message.

"Yes, I'll go right away." After saying that, the person disappeared in a flash.

"You also suspect that there is something wrong with that storyteller?" Ye Ning said.

"I think something is wrong, but I won't worry about it until I check it out."

"Well, we are waiting for news about him now."

After Ye Ningyu finished speaking, he suddenly took a sniff. "Did you smell the smell of alcohol?"

"Smells like alcohol?" Bai Chengzhi sniffed it and said, "Yes, it smells like alcohol."

The two opened the window slightly, leaving a gap, and a stronger aroma of wine floated over.

"What direction is that?" Ye Ningyu pointed to the place where the aroma of wine wafted.

"It should be the wine cellar bar of the City Lord's Mansion."

Bai Chengzhi said and glanced at Ye Ningyu. "Do you want to see what the wine cellar of the City Lord's Mansion looks like?"

Ye Ningyu was stunned, "What's so interesting about the wine cellar..."

"Let's go." Bai Chengzhi said, turned over and jumped out of the window on the side. When he landed, he stretched out his hands to help Ye Ningyu.

"No need, it's so easy to see the wine cellar, why would you climb through the window and sneak in?" Ye Ningyu didn't know what he was up to.

"That's so boring." As he said that, Bai Chengzhi hugged the person with both hands and carried him out of the house.

Before Ye Ningyu was ready, someone had already appeared outside the window.

She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she had no choice but to follow Bai Chengzhi towards the wine cellar.

Ye Ningyu originally thought that Bai Chengzhi would just climb through the window, but she didn't expect that he would become even more outrageous and even plan to climb over the wall!

Not far from the other side of the guest courtyard is the wine cellar. He pulled Ye Ningyu and jumped onto the courtyard wall together, and then landed gently. The moment they landed, Ye Ningyu's thoughts suddenly went back two years.

Many years ago, when she had just been reborn, she sent Fang Yanqing to the northern border to rescue Zhang Wenxiu and get back the marching records.

That night, she went out from Hemingxuan in disguise, but met Bai Chengzhi on the road. She was still injured, so Bai Chengzhi led her through the streets and alleys until they reached the destination.

Until now, she doesn't know why Bai Chengzhi helped her that night, and she has never asked.

The two of them climbed over the wall and walked through a long flower corridor. They say that the aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley. The flower corridor is not short, and through the wall and window, both of them can smell the smell in the guest room. It can be seen that

How is the wine in this cellar?

After the flower gallery is the entrance to the wine cellar. From far away, Ning and Bai saw a large door with two guards from the city lord's palace guarding the door.

It was obvious that the two guards also saw Ning and Bai. They were stunned for a moment, and then stepped forward.

"Two gentlemen." The two of them bowed their hands and saluted with confusion on their faces. "Why did you come here? There is no door here..."

Seeing the two of them calling him this, Bai Chengzhi knew that they recognized him and Ye Ningyu, so he smiled. "We were wandering around the house and lost our way. We walked and ended up here."

"Oh..." One of the guards suddenly realized. "The city lord said that the two gentlemen can visit anywhere in the house. This is the wine cellar. If you are interested, you are welcome to enter the cellar and taste it."

"Can we go in?" Ye Ningyu asked.

"Of course." The guard said.

The two of them didn't refuse, and followed the entrance into the wine cellar. It was very big inside, and the large and small jars of wine stored in them were dazzling.

"You two gentlemen." An old man smiled and walked from the wine cellar to Ning and Bai. "I am the wine taster of the house. If you want to visit this wine cellar, I can introduce it to you on behalf of the city lord."

"Does the old gentleman know us?" Bai Chengzhi asked.

The old man shook his head, "Those who come here must be friends of the city lord. Even if I don't know you, I can't neglect you two."

Ye Ningyu smiled and said, "Old sir, we all came here to smell the fragrance. We usually drink well, so we just came to watch the fun."

"It doesn't matter." The old man waved his hand and pointed to an area in the wine cellar. "The area in front of us is five years of good wine."

As he spoke, he pointed to two places a little further away, "That one is for ten years, and that one is for twenty years."

Ning and Bai took a few steps forward, and Bai Chengzhi stopped at the ten-year wine jar. He sniffed slightly and looked at Ye Ningyu.

"Would you like to have a taste?" With that, the old man opened a jar of wine, scooped out two glasses, and handed them to the two of them.

The two of them tasted it, and Ye Ningyu couldn't help but cough a few times. "It's really spicy."

The old man smiled and said, "These ten-year-old ones are indeed the strongest in the wine cellar. But some people like to drink this kind of wine. Yesterday, I gave a jar to someone else!"

As he said that, the old man shook his head and said, "I don't know if that guest can get used to drinking this spicy wine. It's strange to say that the city lord has never given this kind of wine to guests before."

The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. When Ning and Bai heard the words, they looked at each other at the same time.

"Old sir, you said that yesterday the house gave a jar of ten-year-old wine to the guests?" Ye Ningyu asked.

"Yes." The old man said with a smile. Then, he looked at the area farthest away from them. "That area contains thirty-year-old wine. In the past, the city lord always used the best wine there when sending out guests.

"

Ning and Bai looked at each other again. After walking around the wine cellar for a few times, they didn't stay any longer and turned all the way back to the guest house.

"Do you feel weird?" Ye Ningyu suddenly asked on the way.

"Did you notice it too?" Bai Chengzhi looked at Ye Ningyu.

Both of them thought that the customer mentioned by the old man in the wine cellar had a pockmarked face.

"That kind of ten-year-old wine is so strong. Logically speaking, according to Mr. Wang's behavior, he would give thirty-year-old good wine to the rich squires in Luoshui City. He shouldn't give these ten-year-old strong wine to the old miracle doctor.

yes."

Ye Ningyu looked at Bai Chengzhi with a smile, "Are you sure that Mr. Wang will buy it from you?"

"Of course." Bai Chengzhi smiled and said, "I dare not talk about other aspects, but he will definitely take care of the hospitality. This person is a good official and can make friends. Don't worry about that."

Ye Ningyu didn't think Bai Chengzhi's words were lies. She knew that he must have carefully investigated before making friends with Wang Susu.
