The devil speaks to the heavens

Chapter 9

In the city of Wuxi, dressed in a plain white robe, with slightly long and short hair that seemed strange to people of this era, Mo Huai followed a scent, and walked briskly to an old restaurant on the corner of the street, raised his head and smelled it as if enjoying it The aroma of wine and meat that diffused from the restaurant made my stomach growl suddenly.

"Huh?" Mo Huai, who seemed to be aware of it, looked to the side, and saw a wet mark on the wall of the restaurant. Looking up, it turned out that there was a hand resting on the railing upstairs, and a stream of water flowed smoothly. The little finger on his hand slowly flowed down.

Mo Huai, who took a few steps back, raised his head and clearly saw two people standing opposite each other beside the railing upstairs, holding a big bowl and enjoying the wine.

Among them, the handsome young man who put his hand on the railing and quietly forced out the drink was Duan Yu.The other person is a burly man, in his thirties, wearing a gray old cloth robe, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose and wide mouth, a square face with Chinese characters, quite weather-beaten, looking forward, very Prestige.

"It's really a coincidence!" Mo Huai, who shook his head and smiled, walked straight into the restaurant, and at the same time shouted loudly on purpose: "Xiao Er, bring me all the edible and delicious things in your restaurant, Hurry up, I'm starving to death. Take it upstairs! I want to eat upstairs, the upstairs is open and bright, so I can eat comfortably."

Next to the railing upstairs, Duan Yu and Qiao Feng, who were leaning on the railing and drinking heavily, were suddenly startled by Mo Huai's sudden but seemingly out of breath voice, as if they had been hungry for a long time, and subconsciously turned their heads towards Looking at the stairway leading downstairs from the second floor.

Soon, Mo Huai, who went up to the second floor, glanced casually, and came straight to the table of Duan Yu and Qiao Feng, reached out and picked up a plate of half-eaten beef on the table, and stuffed it into his mouth, as if he was hungry. As if a dead ghost had been reincarnated, in the blink of an eye a plate of beef had already entered Mo Huai's stomach under Duan Yu's astonished gaze.

After rubbing his belly that finally stopped growling in rebellion, Mo Huai smiled at Qiao Feng and Duan Yu, "I'm sorry, you two, I'm really hungry, that's why I... bother to offend you." Here, I hope you two will take offense!"

"Haha...Brother seems to be a straightforward person, why don't you sit down and have a drink with us?" Qiao Feng laughed loudly first.

"That's right, that's right! This big brother, we met because of fate, and we are all brothers in the world. It is also my honor, Duan Yu, to meet the two big brothers here and fight wine together," Duan Yu also laughed hastily.

Duan Yu?Qiao Feng, who was sitting opposite Duan Yu, was obviously stunned for a moment. He originally thought Duan Yu was Murong Fu, but now it seems that he guessed wrong.

However, Qiao Feng didn't mean to say it clearly. After realizing it, he hurriedly asked the bartender to bring another twenty catties of sorghum wine, so that he could have a good drink with Duan Yu and the newcomer Mo Huai.

Now that Duan Yu had already mentioned his name, Qiao Feng followed suit, but Duan Yu came all the way from Dali, so he didn't know Bei Qiaofeng's great name.

Mo Huai also showed no surprise, and introduced himself with a smile, saying that his name was Shi Tiansheng. Although he was a Han Chinese, he grew up in the Western Regions since he was a child, and only recently returned to the Central Plains.This can also explain why he has such nondescript short hair.

It was originally a wine fight between two people, but because of Mo Huai's joining, it suddenly became three people.However, Mo Huai, who was really hungry, besides picking up the wine bowl to drink with Duan Yu and Qiao Feng, almost kept sweeping the dishes on the table.

The speed at which the waiter downstairs served the food could not keep up with Mo Huai's eating speed, which made Duan Yu and Qiao Feng a little stunned, without any doubt that this guy hadn't eaten for a few days because he was hungry.

But seeing Mo Huai being so free and unrestrained and not caring about his image at all, both of them couldn't help but have a good impression of him.

Duan Yu has a simple temperament, but he only thinks that Mo Huai is really cute and straightforward.As the leader of the beggars, Qiao Feng naturally had a natural liking for a 'starved ghost' like Mo Huai.

"Brother Shi, how did you do this? Why haven't you eaten for a few days?" Duan Yu couldn't help asking curiously.

"Hey, brother, this is my brother's secret. I really can't tell you. I can only tell you that what I did was not very glorious. After a lot of hard work, the rewards are limited!" Mo Huai slightly He smiled mysteriously.

Qiao Feng listened thoughtfully, Duan Yu listened interestingly, but he couldn't help asking curiously: "Brother Shi, are you a businessman?"

"Haha... that's right! My brother has to find a way to get good things, and then sell them to big customers," Mo Huai, who was stuffed with a lot of food and wine, wiped his mouth and laughed loudly.

After hearing this, Duan Yu didn't ask any more questions, but smiled and said with a twinkle in his eyes: "Brother Shi, since you are in a big business, today's meal is a treat for you! Originally, the younger brother said I want to invite Brother Qiao, but Brother Shi, you really ate too much today, I can’t afford to invite you, brother.”

Seeing Duan Yu's embarrassing look at the table full of leftovers and plates, Qiao Feng couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Haha..." Mo Huai was taken aback for a moment, but couldn't help laughing: "Since my brother has eaten a lot of food, then of course I will invite you for this meal."

As he said that, Mo Huai reached out and took out an ingot of gold from his bosom, threw it to the bartender waiting at the side, and said, "Don't look for too many, replace them all with steamed bun broth, I invite all the beggar brothers in Wuxi City to eat." .”

Treat a beggar to dinner?The bartender was stunned for a moment, while Qiao Feng beside him couldn't help shrinking his eyes for a moment.

"Okay!" But the bartender, who came to his senses, still nodded and bowed with a smile, and went downstairs with the ingot of gold in his hand.

After the bartender left, Duan Yu couldn't help asking immediately: "Brother Shi, why did you specially treat this beggar in Wuxi city to dinner?"

"Haha...brother, you don't know! Brother, when I was young, I almost starved to death, but a beggar gave me half a rotten steamed bun, so I can live till now," said a row of Duan Yu's shoulders with a smile. Mo Huai said with a little emotion.

Qiao Feng, who suspected that Mo Huai had guessed his identity just now, heard Mo Huai's words and saw that his expression was a little complicated and sentimental, and he secretly let go of the sudden vigilance in his heart.

"Unexpectedly, Big Brother Shi has such a past," Duan Yu couldn't help but sigh in surprise.

"It's all in the past, don't mention him! Come on, let's continue drinking," Mo Huai smiled and toasted, but his eyes were faintly red.He made up a bunch of nonsense before, maybe he didn't even think that he would tell two familiar strangers something that was deeply hidden in his heart.He really experienced the story of half of the rotten buns.

Noticing Mo Huai's eyes that were reddened even though he was smiling, Qiao Feng on the side suddenly felt a little ashamed for his previous doubts about Mo Huai. Picking up the wine bowl, he couldn't help blurting out: "Brother Duan, Brother Shi, you two are straightforward people, and I, Qiao Feng, have never met in my life. The three of us hit it off right away, why don't we become Jinlan brothers here at Songhe Tower how?"

"Okay! My little brother can't wait for it! Brother Shi, what do you think?" Duan Yu, who was talking with a smile, even looked at Mo Huai.
