Longevity begins with Jinyiwei
Page 16
Later, when he entered Jinyiwei's karst cave, he slept in an extremely simple Datong shop. Where had he seen such an authentic ancient style room.
After looking here and there for a while, Li Xiu satisfied his curiosity. After cleaning his body in the room, Li Xiu couldn't wait to change into the suit of Jinyiwei.
With a white lining, turquoise brocade, and a black armor with a long knife hanging from the waist, in the bronze mirror, the handsome and handsome figure, how can you see the thin and sloppy traces of a few months ago!
Looking at himself in the bronze mirror, Li Xiu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
After a while, Li Xiu hesitated for a while, then pushed open the door and walked to the corridor fence. At this time, the first floor of the inn was already full of people, and the noises poured into his ears one after another.
Li Xiu overlooked his eyes, then strode downstairs. He was not very old, and he was dressed in Jinyiwei. Obviously, it was easy for people to misunderstand that it was the gilded son who was arranged by the Jinyiwei. Or others, they all subconsciously stepped aside.
"My lord, what would you like to eat?"
After walking a few steps, a little waiter came over with a smile.
"What's in your store?"
Li Xiu stopped and asked curiously.
"The food in this restaurant is amazing..."
Before waiting for Xiao Er's introduction, Li Xiu glanced at the price list hanging above the counter, and waved his hands with confidence, "Here's a sheep's sausage, and the next one is... roasted venison?"
"Guan Ye, you are right, that is our signature dish, roasted venison."
The shop clerk immediately nodded and bowed and explained.
"Just these two dishes, and another pot..."
At this point, Li Xiu was slightly stunned, looked at the waiter and asked, "What good wine do you have in your shop?"
"My lord, you are asking the right place. Our signature wine is Shandong Qiulubai, which is the crown of the seven famous wines in the world!"
"As the so-called autumn dew is white, the taste is so pure, the color is white, and the remaining sex is hot..."
"Alright, alright!"
Li Xiu waved his hand without waiting for the waiter to brag: "That's all, let's have a pot and prepare to serve!"
"okay!"
"A pot of Qiulubai, the official of Shangtang, a pair of lamb intestines, and a portion of roasted venison..."
Accompanied by the shout of the waiter, Li Xiu also went to the table by the window on the second floor and sat down under the guidance of the waiter.
Only then did Li Xiu notice that the sky had completely darkened, but the lights outside the street were still brightly lit.
Through the window, Li Xiu could clearly see the continuous roof ridges on the street, as well as the various lanterns hanging under the eaves.
There are still people coming and going on the street, even more lively than in the daytime. People who have been busy for a day are playing and chatting on the street with their families. It was yelling non-stop.
It was the first time in Li Xiu's life that he saw such a prosperous scene.
Suddenly, he became a little intoxicated.
It wasn't until the waiter in the shop brought the food and wine that he realized the scene of the night market in the capital.
"My lord, I'll pour you some wine!"
The shop waiter quickly picked up the porcelain white wine jug, and the clear wine poured out from the spout, drawing a crystal white line, and finally fell into the wine glass, with the fragrance of the wine lingering and the hops surging.
Qiu Lubai, just from the hops, you can see its extraordinary.
Li Xiu doesn't know much about wine. In his previous life, although he was young, he also liked what was in the glass, but in this life he has not had the chance to drink what is in the glass for a long time. This time, it is rare.
"Okay, you can step back for now..."
With such a beautiful day, Li Xiu naturally didn't want a mistress to disturb him.
Xiao Er stepped back in response, Li Xiu picked up the wine glass, took a sip, felt the sweet taste of the wine, and couldn't help looking at the people passing by on the street again.
Only then did Li Xiu finally feel the peace and warmth in the world.
Before, no matter living in the wilderness or trying to survive in Jinyiwei, it was too cold and cruel...
He was not touched too much, his eyes became deeper and deeper, and there was a determination and calmness in his expression that was far beyond his age.
"Brother, can I sit here?"
Just as Li Xiu was thinking, a harsh and dry voice suddenly rang in his ears.
Li Xiu turned his head and saw a young man in brocade clothes and holding a folding fan standing beside his desk.
Although the young man's appearance is youthful, he is also quite handsome. He looks about the same age as Erwazi, only eleven or twelve years old.
At this time, seeing Li Xiuxiu looking at him, the young man seemed a little embarrassed, as if he was not good at dealing with people. After a while, the young man said again: "I have heard the name of Nanfenglou's delicious food and wine for a long time. This time it is rare. Come here, but there is no place to sit, so I hope you will forgive me for making such an unreasonable request."
At this point, Li Xiu didn't want to say much. He nodded and signaled the young man to sit down, but he couldn't help showing a trace of doubt between his eyebrows and eyes.
You know, he is dressed in Jin Yiwei, and others may not be able to hide when they see him. Not only is this person not afraid, but he even dares to approach him alone...
Moreover, the material of this person's clothing is obviously extremely exquisite, although his speech is a bit hasty, he is polite and restrained. At this age, it is impossible for him to look like this, even if he is not a wealthy child!
While thinking, the boy called the waiter again, and after ordering a few dishes, he looked at Li Xiu and asked curiously:
"Brother, isn't he a native of the capital?"
"No, people from other places."
Li Xiu nodded without denying it. He poured a glass of wine casually and handed it to the young man.
"According to what the shopkeeper said, this is Qiu Lubai, the first of the seven famous wines in the world. You can taste it, young master."
Hearing this, the young man looked at the wine glass in front of him, hesitated for a while, then picked up the wine glass: "Then I would like to thank you for your kindness!"
……
Chapter 30 Capital
"Good... so spicy!"
The young man seemed to be drinking alcohol for the first time, imitating Li Xiu and taking a sip, his entire face was distorted.
Li Xiu took a sip of the wine and savored it carefully, but he didn't pay much attention to the young man. At this moment, he couldn't help but think about his future again when he saw the bustling and noisy.
In this era, as a passer-by, he doesn't seem to have many choices...
"Brother seems to be preoccupied?"
The young man is outspoken and doesn't seem to know much about human taboos.
"Haha, who has no worries!"
Li Xiu shook his head with a smile, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, no matter how mellow the wine was, when so much wine entered his stomach, it was still hot, and his body was completely enveloped in warmth at this moment.
"Brother Tai is right, who has nothing on his mind!"
The young man doesn't know the feeling of sorrow, but he seems to have understood some of the feeling of sorrow.
After a while, the boy suddenly looked at Li Xiu: "Hearing your brother's accent, he shouldn't be a native of the capital, right?"
When these words came out, Li Xiu couldn't help being startled. Speaking of which, he didn't even know where his hometown in this world was!
After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Should...should be from Shandong."
"Should...does it mean that Xiongtai doesn't even know where he was born?"
"Young and ignorant, a little savvy encountered disasters, fell into the wilderness, and only recently entered Jinyiwei by chance... I don't even remember where my hometown is..."
Li Xiu's words are naturally true. Although he has only personally experienced the life of a refugee for less than half a year, the original owner of this body, but since he was a child, has been living in the wilderness with his parents. It seems that he escaped from the oppression of the landlord. Then I encountered bandits, all kinds of changes, and I was displaced. Anyway, it was really miserable!
Otherwise, the root cause of this physical weakness would not be so serious!
Hearing Li Xiu's expressive expression, the young man was taken aback for a moment, and then he couldn't help showing a touch of sympathy.
Seeing Li Xiu's majestic appearance, he thought that Li Xiu was from a wealthy family, who received the shadow from his father's generation, and inherited brocade clothes and guards, but he did not expect to encounter such suffering.
The young man asked doubtfully again: "The disaster is rampant, what about the government, didn't they help the victims?"
"The government..."
Hearing this innocent words, Li Xiu shook his head with a smile. I am afraid that only this kind of unworldly noble son can ask such words.
Li Xiu didn't bother to say much, but the young man was obviously puzzled, and asked again.
Seeing this, Li Xiu picked up his wine glass and looked at the still noisy and peaceful street, but he couldn't help but think of the years when he was trapped among the refugees, and he sighed leisurely: "This world is not as good as you think, my lord." as simple as that!"
The so-called stinky wine and meat of the rich, and the frozen bones on the road, seem to be the portrayal of this capital.
Li Xiu asked himself, although he himself can't say that he has too much righteousness for his family and country, but the genes engraved deep in his blood remind him from time to time that in this era, there are too many things that are hard to let go of for him who came from future generations grief!
Li Xiu didn't say too much, he is just an insignificant banner official of the Jinyiwei, and this young man is definitely a powerful family just by his clothes and temperament.
In this capital city, any powerful family is something to look up to as a small banner official like him.
He disdains flattery, and speaks too much.
And that young man, seeing Li Xiu's obvious alienation, didn't want to ask more questions.
Time passed, about half an hour passed, Li Xiu had enough to eat and drink, so he bid farewell to the young man who was obviously curious about the outside world, walked out of the inn alone, and came to the streets of the capital.
Naturally, there is a night ban in the capital. Although Li Xiu didn't know it, before Xu Tao left, he also told him that, Li Xiu's memory is correct, the night drum should be struck at one o'clock and three o'clock, and no travel is allowed. The traffic ban can only be opened after the morning bell rings at three o'clock in the fifth watch.Violators were given fifty strokes of the cane.
However, exceptions can naturally be made for important human relations matters such as childbirth, illness, and death.
The first watch belongs to Xu time, which is roughly equivalent to seven o'clock to nine o'clock in modern times, and the first three o'clock is about the early eight o'clock. It's getting dark now, and there is still a long time before the night ban.
At this moment, the stamina of the wine also surged up, and the whole person was a little dizzy, coupled with the ancient style of the market beside him, it also gave Li Xiu a sense of loneliness as if he had been in a lifetime.
At this time, above the restaurant, the young man was sitting by the window sill, looking at the scene of the street, but in the end he inadvertently fixed on Li Xiu.
He has seen many high-ranking officials and nobles, and Jin Yiwei has also seen many, but no one has ever given him such a strange feeling.
as if...
Everyone is drunk and he is sober...
The young man frowned, quite puzzled, until Li Xiu disappeared from his line of sight, then he withdrew his gaze, pondered for a moment, and walked out of the restaurant...
It has to be said that the skin of the Jinyiwei is really easy to use. Along the way, even those local hooligans who look fierce at first glance will never dare to do anything wrong.
Following this street, he walked around the vicinity, and after getting a general understanding of the surrounding terrain, Li Xiu walked back to the inn slowly.
Although it was not far from the curfew time, there were still many people in the inn. Li Xiu didn't care too much, and walked back to the room slowly. Unexpectedly, Xu Tao hadn't returned yet.
Sitting in front of the desk in the room, Li Xiu rubbed his head, closed his eyes for a moment, and then took out the book of Brilliant Strength.
After flipping through for a while, Li Xiu pulled out the Yangyuan pile, transported the energy and blood, and started to practice according to the method of bull strength.
The night passed, and Xu Tao didn't return all night. The next morning, when Li Xiu opened the door, Xu Tao came back staggeringly. His body was full of alcohol, and the smell of rouge was clearly audible. where.
After arranging the shop waiter to tidy up for Xu Tao, Li Xiu left the inn alone, walked around again, and got acquainted with the topography of the capital before returning to his room to practice again.
Fortunately, the room in this inn is also quite spacious, not only can you practice Zhuang Gong, but even practice knife skills, it is not a problem to tidy up.
Time passed in this boring life, and it was like this for a few days.
According to Xu Tao's request, he was familiar with the terrain of the capital every day, and then returned to the inn to practice martial arts, and Xu Tao was much more chic than Li Xiu.
Every day is obviously lingering in the land of Goulan, among the Yingying and Yanyan, living a life of drunkenness and dreaming.
Although Li Xiu also intends to move, but he is really shy in his pocket.
The wine and food in this inn can be called high-quality and delicious, but the price is not very friendly.
Except for the first time ordering food was extravagant for a while, after that, Li Xiu could only spend his days carefully.
Fortunately, although Xu Tao was living a life of drunkenness, he did not forget his duties. After spending five days in style, he led Li Xiu, gathered Jin Yiwei who had rested for a few days, left the capital, and headed towards the cave.
Chapter 31 half a year
The journey home was smooth, and the cavalry team composed of dozens of royal guards, when there was no conflict of interest, no one who was not open-eyed came to make trouble.
On the way, Li Xiu found out that during the few days in the capital, Jin Yiwei sent troops to strangle several cottages outside the city, behead hundreds of people, and remand a dozen bandit leaders for interrogation.
However, no one knows what the effect will be. It took several days for everyone to return to the cave again.
After returning after nearly half a month, his identity has completely changed.
When Li Xiu stepped into the cave, it immediately caused quite a commotion, and envious eyes all focused on Li Xiu.
"Brother Xiu, have you become a Jinyiwei?"
As soon as he entered the martial arts arena, many young people he knew couldn't help asking.
Erwazi even ran over directly, touching left and looking right, the envious look made Li Xiu even a little bit amused.
"Okay, okay, you will wear this dress in the future, what's so good about it!"
