Chapter 15 The Road Meets Times

As soon as the three of them entered the city, they saw a lean man wearing a white towel coming up to him and said: "The three guests want to have wine and food. In front of them is the largest restaurant in Qizhou City, Qizhou Laojiu and Jimo Laojiu.

Zizhou's overturned wells and Yizhou's Lanling wine are all available in the building. As long as the three guests move around, they will be kept to their satisfaction."

When he came north to Cangzhou, Chao Yong entered the city from the south gate and randomly chose a restaurant to eat. He only tried Zizhou Wanguojing, but he didn't know which restaurant was the largest in Qizhou.

When Wu Song heard that there was so much wine to drink, he shouted: "Lead the way."

The three of them followed the man for a few hundred meters and saw a large restaurant with several wine flags fluttering in the wind, and the names of several wines such as Wanqiaojing and Lanling wine were written on them.

Before I even reached the building, the aroma of wine was already blowing in the wind.

Walking to the front of the building, the lean man said attentively: "Three guests, please come in. There will be a waiter in the building to greet you. I will tie the horses to the backyard."

Chao San said hurriedly: "No, you take the young master and Mr. Wu upstairs first, and I will store the horses."

The lean man saw that Chao San didn't look like a lazy slave. He rolled his eyes and said, "Go around to the left and you can reach the backyard."

After saying that, he picked up the package from Wu Song's horse and said: "The little one will bring the parcel for the guest guests. Please take care of the two guests."

Chao Yong and Wu Song had no doubt that he was there, so they went upstairs first. A waiter from the building had already greeted him and said: "Three guests, please come upstairs."

When Chao Yong heard the waiter talking about the three guests, his heart moved. He turned around and saw that the white towel on the lean man's shoulders had disappeared at some point.

The three of them followed the waiter upstairs to the second floor and chose a seat by the window to sit down. The lean man put the package on the table and said, "You two sit down for a moment while I go downstairs to check out the wine."

Wu Song said hurriedly: "Go quickly, go quickly, if you have some good wine, just come up."

The man turned around and was about to leave, but he felt a pain in his wrist, which was pinched by Chao Yong. He quickly turned around and said, "My lord, do you have any other orders?"

Chao Yong smiled and said: "Since I'm here, let's have some wine before leaving and sit down."

A trace of panic flashed across the lean man's face, and he immediately forced a smile and sat down.

Chao Yong dragged the lean man as if he didn't want his friend to leave. He turned to the waiter next to him and said, "Two kilograms of each kind of good wine, seven or eight plates of food, and three kilograms of good mutton."

The waiter was also overjoyed when he saw the high-roller, and nodded and bowed.

As soon as the waiter left, the lean man said: "You two gentlemen, please wait a moment. The younger one will go get the wine for you. Wang Xiaoyi, however, is not very good at moving his hands and feet, so as not to make you anxious while waiting."

Chao Yong smiled and said: "I'm afraid you won't come back now. Brother Wu Er, look at the package and see if there is anything missing?"

When the lean man heard this, his expression suddenly changed, he stood up suddenly, shook the hand held by Chao Yong hard, and rushed to the window.

As soon as he took a step, he was pulled back. Chao Yong's hands were like iron hoops, and he struggled to free himself.

"Zhaida, let me introduce you to Grandpa Wu Er's fist today."

Seeing that he was about to run away, Wu Song knew something was wrong, so he hit the lean man on the face with his big fist.

The lean man turned his head and dodged Wu Song's fist. He took advantage of the situation and fell to the ground. He kicked his feet and slid close to the ground, trying to escape under Chao Yong's crotch.

Chao Yong didn't know what he was doing, so he dared to let him get under his crotch. He shook his hand hard and pulled the man up.

"Brother Yong, be careful."

It turned out that the lean man couldn't escape, so he turned around. Unexpectedly, there was a knife in his other hand, and it was slashing towards Chao Yong's wrist.

He was about to scratch Chao Yong's wrist, and the lean man was ready to run away when Chao Yong let go. But in the flash of lightning, the lean man felt his wrist tighten, and both hands were grabbed by Chao Yong.

Chao Yong was startled when he saw the sharp knife so close at hand. If he was scratched by it, he would be injured at least, or even the tendon of his hand might be severed.

Later, Wu Song was also startled. He kicked the lean man in the crook of his leg, knocking him to the ground and said: "What a courageous bitch, you dare to hurt people. Today, your grandfather Wu Er will make you regret coming here."

in the world.”

The lean man was also clever. When he saw that he could not escape, he immediately took out the silver coins he stole from Wu Song's package and begged: "Grandpa's silver is all here. Please spare my life, but the little one has eyesight and cannot see the mountains. I mistakenly offended the power of a tiger."

Please spare your lives, grandpas."

Wu Song picked up his package and looked at it. It was intact, but the money inside was missing. He couldn't help but cursed: "You are a very fast thief."

Chao Yong was not afraid of him escaping from under his nose. He loosened his hands and said, "Your accent doesn't sound like someone from Jingdong. Why do you come here to do this business?"

"The younger one is called Shi Qian. He was originally from Gaotang Prefecture. He offended the governor of Gaotang Prefecture and was unable to survive, so he had to live in the world."

Chao Yong blurted out and asked: "When the drum is full of fleas?"

Shi Qian raised his head, looked at Chao Yong in surprise, and said, "How does Grandpa know the villain's bandit name?"

Chao Yong heard that he was the most outstanding Shi Qian in Water Margin, so he couldn't help but look at him carefully. He was lean and lean, with unremarkable facial features, except for a pair of thick eyebrows.

In the few fights just now, the rabbit rises and the falcon falls, and he is extremely agile. If he hadn't had superhuman reaction speed after traveling through time, he might not have been able to catch Shi Qian in such a small space.

Chao Yong helped Shi Qian up and said, "I've heard some stories about how you robbed the rich and gave to the poor. You are considered a good man. I wonder how you can do this today?"

Shi Qian's face turned red, thinking that Chao Yong had really heard of a few good deeds he had done by chance, and said awkwardly: "Shi Qian is not good at writing or martial arts. He is only agile and doesn't make a living, so he can only do some flying over eaves, walking over walls, and jumping over fences."

Horse cheating."

"Qianqing was trying to deceive our horse earlier. If Chao San hadn't been so alert, he would have been deceived. Brother Yong doesn't need to talk to him anymore. Let Wu Er give him a good beating.

That’s it.”

Chao Yong stopped Wu Song and said with a smile: "Although brother Shi Qian's methods are disgraceful, he can still be regarded as a thieves who robbed the rich and gave to the poor. Brother, please let him go this time."

When Shi Qian saw Chao Yong speaking for him, he also hurriedly said: "Hero, please spare me this time. I, the villain, was confused for a moment and will never dare to do it again."

When Wu Song saw Chao Yong talking, he also cursed: "I'll spare you this time, but I won't spare you next time if I bump into you doing this business again."

Seeing that he had escaped a beating, Shi Qian hurriedly said: "I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore."

"Get out of here quickly."

Shi Qian nodded and bowed, and was about to slip away, but was stopped by Chao Yong, who hurriedly said, "Grandpa, what else do you have to say?"

Chao Yong smiled and said: "We are destined to meet each other, why don't we sit down and have a drink together."

Shi Qian said hurriedly: "I don't dare to disturb the two of you."

Chao Yong sat down according to the time and said: "It doesn't matter if you just sit."

While they were talking, the waiter had already brought the wine. Just as he was about to open the wine cup, he heard Wu Song say: "The wine cup doesn't make you happy, please change it to a bowl."

When the waiter went to get the bowl, Wu Song had already grabbed the wine jar and opened it, and a strong aroma of wine suddenly wafted out.

Chao Yong couldn't help but praise: "Good wine, it is indeed a tribute wine. I missed it when I passed Qizhou last time."

While talking, the waiter had already brought the bowl.

Before the waiter could do anything, Wu Song had already grabbed the wine jar and filled it up.

I saw that Lanling wine was amber in color, crystal clear and translucent. When I poured it out, I felt the aroma was rich and overpowering.

The waiter introduced: "Lanling fine wine uses fine corn, millet, rock sugar, longan meat, red dates, tulips, and fresh roses as raw materials, uses Lanling underground luscious spring water as "blood", and then mixes it with high-quality Daqu.

It is brewed. The poet Li Bai once wrote a poem praising Lanling's fine wine, tulips, and the amber light contained in the jade bowl. But it makes the host drunk, and the guests don't know where they are in a foreign country."

While the wine was flowing, Wu Song was not interested in listening to the waiter's chatter. He raised his bowl and said, "Brother Yong, it's done."

Chao Yong was also greedy. He raised his bowl and drank it all in one gulp. He felt that it was stronger than Jimo old wine. He praised: "The quality of the wine is pure and sweet, the taste is mellow and soft, it is a good wine."

The waiter said: "Your Majesty knows the goods. Lanling wine is mellow and delicious, with a long aftertaste."

Wu Song, however, was impatient and waved his hand: "Who told you to make noise? Go ahead. It will be a painful experience without a reward."

Wu Song filled up the bowl for everyone and ate another bowl.

However, Shi Qian couldn't drink as much as the two of them. After eating two bowls in a row, his eyes suddenly became dazed and he couldn't close his mouth.

Chao Yong smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry, there are other wines."

When Wu Song heard this, he turned around and opened the well and filled it for everyone.

"Eat a bowl and see."

When Shi Qian saw Wu Song looking at him, he had to hold it up through gritted teeth and said, "Here's to you two heroes."

The three of them ate another bowl. Shi Qian's eyes were dizzy and his body was shaking a little.

Chao Yong smiled and said: "Second brother, stop teasing him."

Wu Song patted Shi Qian on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Who told you to take advantage of us earlier? These three bowls of wine will be your apology."

Shi Qian hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "The villain was confused for a moment, but the hero Haihan has not yet asked for the names of the two heroes."

"I am Chao Yong from Yuncheng County, and he is Wu Song from Qinghe County."

Shi Qian was surprised and asked: "Could it be that Chao Yong, the little overlord of Tai'an Prefecture, defeated Jiang Menshen?"

Wu Song looked at Shi Qian jokingly and said with a smile: "You know how brave you are, right?"

Only then did Shi Qian realize that he was not unjustly punished today, and sighed: "It turns out that it was the little bully in front of me. He is really blind and blind. Damn it, damn it. Thank you for your mercy."

Chao Yong said with a smile: "My father, King Tuota, also likes to make friends on weekdays, and there are many businesses in the village. Why don't brothers Shi Qian come back to the village with me? There will always be a place for us to be useful, rather than wasting our time here."

Although Shi Qian was a master of Qinggong, he also knew that flying over walls and walls was not a long-term solution. Once he failed, the police would catch wind of him and he would have no choice but to run away like a lost dog.

He had long wanted to say goodbye to this life of running around, but besides that, he didn't know what to do, so he just kept wasting his time.

When he heard that he could go to the house of Chao Gai, a famous river and lake tycoon, he hurriedly said: "I have also heard many times that King Chao Tian was generous with his wealth. I had long wanted to join him, but no one introduced him. Brother Yong is willing to support me, and I am willing to do the hard work of a dog and horse."

Chao Yong was naturally very happy to receive Shi Qian. Everyone was full of wine and food, and rested for half a day in Qizhou City. Chao Yong paid for Shi Qian to buy horses for transportation, and then set off on the road.
