drunk drunk Changan

"Hey, how many times have I told you not to drink on my territory."

The drunk Li Jiu felt that his hands were empty, and someone grabbed his back collar and lifted him up.Li Jiu was taken aback, grabbed the hands of the people behind him in a hurry, and shouted: "Master, I was wrong, I shouldn't be in such a clean place as the Taoist temple... Cough cough cough!"

"What kind of Taoist or non-Taoist, and what kind of messy novel did you read?" The person behind had already let go of Li Jiu, shook off Li Jiu's hand, and continued, "Also, do you want to delay the rent for the six months when?"

Li Jiu turned his head in a daze, stared at the people behind him for a while, and said in a daze, "Brother Ziqing, your outfit is so strange, why can't I tell what year it is..."

"Brother Ziqing, your size, this landlord's name is...forget it, I don't expect you to remember the name, you remember that the monthly rent is [-] yuan, and [-] yuan for half a year is enough! Renminbi, no Silver ticket, understand!"

Li Jiu has not woken up from the drink until now, still staring blankly at his bully-like landlord, and said stupidly: "So ruthless, so ruthless, you lost to me back then and broke the signboard. I will pay you back, these stinky money..."

The landlord stepped on Li Jiu's shoulder and said viciously: "If you don't pay the rent within three days, I will sell the antiques in your house without hesitation!" I searched it out, packed it and took it out the door.

Too cruel!Only then did Li Jiu wake up a bit, and then he groped under the sofa, took out a flat Erguotou bottle, and poured the liquid into his mouth...

Pooh!What is Shimizu? !Who did it secretly!

The shortage of drinks made Li Jiu shiver. He looked around in panic, and finally remembered that it was no longer the prosperous Tang Dynasty.That's right, it's the era of the People's Republic, and he is living in a rented house in a residential building not far from Qujiangchi Ruins Park in Xi'an.

Is this the first time I've been so drunk that I can't even tell the time?Forget it, this kind of thing is not important, the important thing is to go downstairs to buy wine quickly.

After walking downstairs, seeing the fireworks that shattered the sky, and hearing the firecrackers one after another, I realized that it was the big day at this time, and I am afraid that no liquor store was still open.

On New Year's Eve, it seems that you want to stay with your family?But he was so drunk that he couldn't even remember who he was, let alone who was in the family.It's nerve-wracking, if I can think of family members and the like, I can ask for a sip of wine, but now I can't even think of anyone who can ask for a drink, what a pity.

Alas, anyway, there is no wine at home, so why not just go for a walk on the street, maybe lucky enough to run into one or two restaurants that are not closed, it is also good to buy a few bottles of wine for emergency.

Walking on the cold windy street, Li Jiu couldn't help shrinking his neck, and pulled the scarf around his neck.Inadvertently, I caught a glimpse of a bar that was still open.

Well, well, as good as it gets.

The small bar will turn over your brand today, just wait for the master to come and get lucky!

He ran into the bar in a hurry, but found that there were no customers inside, only a lonely figure inside the counter.The figure looked to be a young man, tall and thin, with shoulder-length hair, holding an empty goblet in a daze.

"Boss! Make me a cup of Six Happiness!" Li Jiu stepped forward to say hello.

"Four joys come to the door..." The boss looked at Li Jiu with a smile, "You are referring to the four joys of 'when there is a long drought, sweet rains, old acquaintances in other lands, wedding nights, and gold list titles'? I can adjust this kind of wine. Don't come out!"

Li Jiu scratched his head frantically, extremely annoyed.The boss clearly knew that he was talking about the name of a cocktail, but he still wanted to use this allusion to make fun of him. What the hell was he thinking!But there is so much fine wine in front of him, how can there be no reason not to drink it!Thinking of this, Li Jiu simply ran into the counter, picked up the half-bottle of vodka used for mixing, and poured it into his mouth, regardless of how ugly the boss's face was at this moment.

The boss wanted to stop the drunkard's robbery, but gave up after looking at his appearance.This alcoholic is tall and burly, no matter how you look at it, it is not a problem to clean up a thin bar owner.Moreover, the drunkard was dressed in nondescript clothes. A shirt with misplaced buttons was covered over a fur collar coat. He even ran out barefoot in the cold weather, really drunk to the point where he didn't even know who he was.And a guy who is drunk to this extent will never know the severity of the shot. If the boss makes a shot to stop him, it's hard to say whether he will be killed or maimed.

Or call the police!

The boss looked at Li Jiu, his hand was already touching his pocket, and he was about to dial the number of the nearest office stored in his mobile phone while keeping away from Li Jiu.

And at this moment, Li Jiu put down the wine bottle, and stared straight at the boss with a pair of sunken eyes.

The boss was so frightened that he didn't know how to prevent the alcoholic from getting rough with him.

Li Jiu and the boss looked at each other for a while, neither of them moved, not even blinking.In the end, it was Li Jiu who spoke first: "I only have this few money here, I don't know if it's enough to pay the bill..." Li Jiu pulled down the length of long johns he was wearing by mistake, and fumbled in the pocket of the jeans inside. He took out a handful of small change and put it on the counter.

The boss glanced at the small change on the counter and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.Ancient coins, Zhenyou Tongbao, bare back and no writing, handed down from generation to generation.The boss doesn't know much about this, and he estimates that the market price of ordinary copper coins is only 20 yuan a piece. There are six coins in this one, equivalent to 120 yuan, which is enough to buy him a half bottle of vodka.But this does not seem to be the crux of the problem. The crux of the problem is that it is already the 21st century, who still uses copper coins?But in any case, it was the best situation at the moment, the drunkard didn't cause him any trouble, and he paid the money.

"That's enough." The boss said, carefully picking up the copper coins one by one and holding them in the palm of his hand.Li Jiu's body temperature still remained on the copper coin, and there was an indescribable tactile sensation, as if the mind that had been sleeping for thousands of years suddenly woke up at this moment, and it was transmitted from the hand to the bottom of the heart in an instant.

I don't know if it was to cover up my panic for a while, or the habit of running the bar for several years, the boss asked politely: "Do you want me to help you pour the wine into the glass or chill it?"

"No need, just give me a bag of dried plums as usual. You always have to order food and drinks, ahahaha..."

as usual?The boss was stunned for a moment, but he had never used prunes as gifts before.But right now the alcoholic is insane, probably confused him with the boss of another family.It's just a bag of prunes, and it's not that expensive. He can still afford such a small thing as a gift.Thinking of this, the boss found a bag of prunes from the cabinet and handed it to the drunkard.

Li Jiu took the prunes, opened them directly, and threw a piece into his mouth.The sour taste of prunes spreads on the tip of the tongue, sweet and sour, a little familiar and a little nostalgic.Eating dried plums and drinking wine, I don't know whether it was sour or moved, two lines of tears flowed from Li Jiu's eyes.

"Shen Lu, I haven't seen you for so many years, and you haven't changed at all..."

Shen green?The boss looked at Li Jiu and said after a moment of silence, "My name is Tao Lu, not Shen Lu."

"Why did you change your surname again? You just changed from Situ Lu to Shen Lu, why did you become Tao Lu again? It's so troublesome, you should change it back to Shen Lu."

Boss Tao Lvtao, who did not change his name or surname, had black lines all over his face. What is this alcoholic thinking?

"Ah, by the way, I know you have a bad memory, let me tell you again, don't forget, my name is... hey, what is it..." Li Jiu thought for a long time, then pulled out of his pocket. Li found out his ID card, looked at it and continued, "Li Jiu, the people of Li, Li, drinking, no, good wine, no, feasting, it's not right, anyway, Jiu is right."

What is it all about!Tao Lu had nothing to do with the drunkard, so he could only let him go: "Understood, Li Jiu."

"Yeah!" Li Jiu looked very happy, and even smiled at Tao Lu.

Tao Lu sighed deeply and looked out the window.

It's twelve o'clock, and the New Year's Eve fireworks are scary, and the sky is full of brilliance, illuminating the night brightly.It was a special year.

After drinking half a bottle of vodka, the alcoholic unexpectedly stopped drinking, but sat aside and stared at Tao Lu, or looked at something through Tao Lu.

Tao Lu didn't notice the drunkard's gaze at all, she was still watching the fireworks outside the window.

"Shen Lu... It's been almost 800 years since the last time we left, and you are really willing to let me stay alone for so long."

"800 years?" Tao Lu didn't turn his head, still looking out the window, "It doesn't even count as a thousand years, is it a long time?"

"A long time, a long time, so long that the money for buying wine will be covered with copper rust, the bones of the wine seller will rot in the ground, and the tombstone will be weathered into sand, so that I will never remember your appearance again."

"Then how did you recognize me?" Tao Lu turned around and looked at Li Jiu, somewhat curious about how this alcoholic wanted to justify himself.

"When I saw you, I recognized you naturally."

Tao Lu didn't want to pay attention to this scruffy man he knew well, turned around and continued watching the fireworks.

Li Jiu chuckled a few times, said "goodbye" and left the bar without further entanglement.

It wasn't until he heard the bell on the door that Tao Lu quietly glanced at Li Jiu's back outside the glass door.That walk was a bit faltering, and I don't know if it was because he didn't wear shoes in the winter, or because he drank too much and couldn't stand still. He was clearly only a young man in his 30s, but he walked like an old man.

Tao Lu spread out the hand he had been holding tightly just now, and carefully looked at the copper coin in his hand.As a layman, he couldn't tell the authenticity or value, he just felt that the copper coin was heavy, as if it would drag people into the ground and rot into dust and sand with the years.

That's it.

It's so late, let's go to bed quickly, the year is over.

By accident, Tao Lu put the six copper coins under his pillow, and fell asleep...
