drunk drunk Changan

Chapter 9 Chang'an Qi 3

I don't know when I held the jade cup in the palm of my hand.

Tao Lu, who almost dropped the jade cup after waking up, scratched her hair suspiciously.He shouldn't have the habit of sleepwalking, right?Or is this jade cup a bit evil?

No, no, as a firm atheist, Tao Lu firmly believes that it was just because she fell asleep last night, and at most she suffered from sleepwalking... In short, you can't just because you spend too much time with a nagging lunatic in the past two days Create supernatural associations.

Open the curtains, and you can see the New Year's scenery of Qujiangchi Ruins Park outside.Modern high-rise buildings tell the vigor of the early 21st century, but the antique pavilions drag people back to the world thousands of years ago.

Perhaps it was this contrast that caused Tao Lu to feel a little scared.

Finally, Tao Lu picked up her mobile phone and called Zeng Haoyan.

"Hey, rat. Then what, the jade cup I showed you the photo of yesterday... Ah, that's the one, uh... That thing feels a bit evil, can I come to your place today?...Damn ! When will you come back at night?...Let’s rely on relying on relying on relying on! The soul that values ​​sex and despises friends! Labor and management don’t want to talk to you anymore!”

After hanging up the phone, Tao Lu felt tens of thousands of beasts galloping past her heart.He, the bar owner, was still living a difficult life as a vegetarian, but Zeng Haoyan, who is a dealer in antiques, has already eaten meat? !

Or go to the shop.

As for the jade cup, take it with you for now.In case Li Jiu comes back today, give it back to him.

Li Jiu really came today, just as Tao Lu was carrying a recycle bag of fresh vegetables and was about to open the door of Guigui Laixi Bar.Today Li Jiu is wearing another simple Hanfu, and seems to be carrying some kind of musical instrument on his back.

"Have you eaten yet?" Tao Lu took out the key to open the lock on the store door, and asked casually.

Li Jiu was taken aback for a moment and then replied, "No."

The door opened, and Tao Lu pushed it open, motioning for Li Jiu to go in first.After Li Jiu entered, he lowered the plastic curtain and turned on the air conditioner in the store.

"What do you want to eat? Let me tell you first, the food manager in the store is home for the New Year, and I can't cook too complicated dishes." Tao Lu said, putting the vegetables in the recycle bag into the refrigerator in the kitchen.

Li Jiu glanced at the menu on the counter, and chose the most rustic and simple one: "Tomato and egg noodles."

"Okay, you can sit down." After saying this, Tao Lu went into the house and started to work on the stove.

Soon, two bowls of hot tomato and egg noodles were served on the table.Tao Lu casually pushed a bowl of noodles and chopsticks in front of Li Jiu, then sat opposite and picked up another bowl of noodles and started eating.Seeing this, Li Jiu picked up the noodles and started to eat, and from time to time quietly raised his head to look at Tao Lu.

Seeing that Li Jiu didn't take the noodles he cooked seriously, Tao Lu raised his eyebrows: "What, it's terrible?"

"Noodles are delicious, but you look better than noodles."

"So the purpose of your running to the bar every day is to pick up men?" Tao Lu's mouth curled up.

Li Jiu was stunned for a moment, then said after a moment of silence: "It seems that what you said is really the same thing."

Tao Lu pointed to the tomato and egg noodles in Li Jiu's bowl: "I'll eat it all for you, why don't you be serious?"

Li Jiu laughed, his eyes wandered to the decoration of the store, and he changed the subject: "I think your bar doesn't look like a bar, but a restaurant."

Tao Lu did not express approval or disgust for such a blunt topic change, but replied along the way: "This used to be an idyllic restaurant, and I didn't modify it much after I took over. Probably, the original counter was slightly changed. Serve as a bar."

"There seems to be amplifying equipment here, why is there no singing?"

"Going home for the New Year."

Li Jiu put his hand on the cloth-wrapped musical instrument he brought with excitement: "Then can I use the equipment here?"

Boss Tao said very seriously: "You can use the equipment. But let me say it first. Before, those who sang here were paid according to the song. Now there are basically no customers in the store."

Li Jiu finished eating the noodles in two or three strokes, wiped his mouth, and opened the cloth bag.

"Is this... a harp?"

"There's nothing wrong with saying it's a harp, but strictly speaking, it should be called a harp. After all, it's an antique made locally and stored for hundreds of years."

The corner of Tao Lu's mouth twitched: "It's the 21st century now, why do you feel like you're still living in ancient times?"

Li Jiu smiled mysteriously at Tao Lu, and then made a scientific joke: "The continuation of life is the continuation of DNA. We are all old things that have lived for tens of millions of years."

Tao Lu glanced at Li Jiu with a disgusted face, wanted to say something but couldn't say it after all, and ate noodles in a muffled voice.

Li Jiu calmly tuned the harp, turned on the amplifier, and played it.

The inexplicably familiar tune was played by stringed instruments from some ages, but I couldn't remember what it was for a while.Perhaps, it is an ancient song that has been used repeatedly by a certain TV series?

After playing a prelude, Li Jiu sang loudly: "When you laugh, you sing praises, when you frown, your heart hurts~~ I don't have time to pay attention to me, I just feel your feelings~Where are you going, take my soul away~~ It has become enchanted for you, what's the use of keeping it~~~~~"

Tao Lu ate the noodles and almost spit out a mouthful, and looked at Li Jiu who was singing ecstatically.

Li Jiu didn't realize that something was wrong, and continued to sing: "You are electricity, you are light, you are the only myth, I only love you~Youaremysuperstar~~ You dominate, I adore, there is no better way, I can only love You~~You are my superstar..."

Tao Lu caressed her forehead.Well, even if the instrument used is a konghou, or an antique konghou, it doesn't mean that you can't sing pop songs.This time he completely believed that this guy was a pure modern person who loved ancient culture.

His voice, which has been burned by alcohol for many years, has a unique hoarseness, but the songs he sang are unexpectedly full of appeal.

After singing a song, Li Jiu looked at Tao Lu with a smile, and asked how he sang with his eyes.

Tao Lu thought for a while, but for some reason, she didn't want to give this guy a positive comment at all, so she put on a disgusted expression: "It's quite an amateur."

"Well, it's really just a personal hobby, not very professional." Li Jiu turned off the power of the amplifier, carefully put away the harp, and sat back beside Tao Lu.

Tao Lu looked at Li Jiu, and said casually, "Then what is your profession? Do you drink alcohol?"

Li Jiu showed a proud smile: "Creature."

Tao Lu froze for a moment, then looked Li Jiu up and down: "It feels... like someone who studies ancient culture."

"What about you? I guess you're a foreign language or some kind of culture major."

"You're overthinking." Tao Lu looked out the window, "It's an accountant who has nothing to do with what I'm doing now. I'm just a half-baked bartender with knowledge of foreign languages ​​and culture."

Li Jiu was stunned for a while, then suddenly turned into a hearty smile, but also revealed a deep sadness that seemed to have run through thousands of years.

Although Li Jiu didn't speak, Tao Lu understood the meaning of Li Jiu's smile.

Laughing is the insignificant you and me in the torrent of time.

The "Zhenyou Tongbao" is as small as a face value, and its existence value is equivalent to a light sip of the rim of an ancient jade cup, carrying yesterday, today and tomorrow as light as a piece of ink.

The heart is like an ape, and the mind is like a horse.Just a trance, countless indescribable thoughts drifted away, and then disappeared in the smile of the person in front of him.

Tao Lu subconsciously turned her head slightly, and said something casually: "You seem to like wine quite a bit, should I mix or pour you a glass of wine?"

"It's about the same..."

"That's right, for those who can't even drink vodka dry, as long as there is alcohol is enough." Tao Lu went straight to the counter, squeezed orange juice and divided it into two and a half glasses, then mixed it with Sprite, put lemon slices on the rim of the cup, put straw.Facing Li Jiu's surprised gaze, Tao Lu said: "I don't think you like alcohol, but romance."

Li Jiu took a sip of the specially prepared soft drink without a drop of alcohol, and said with a wry smile: "Maybe what you said is right, maybe."

"Since you've said that..." Tao Lu locked the door of the bar with a smile on her face, and lowered the curtains.

It was dark inside the bar, and the atmosphere became subtle.

"You are..."

"Come to the bar to meet men, today is the third time for you. As long as you just drink and don't provoke me, it's fine, but you always come to me every time... Heh, everyone is an adult, so don't pretend too much Pure."

Li Jiu frowned slightly: "I'm not..."

Tao Lu snorted, and took out the jade cup and six copper coins and put them on the table: "Talk to me about the past and present life for a while, and sing love songs to me for a while, don't tell me you just want to chat with me innocently. If you cooperate, do it." , If you don’t get along, you’ll be separated, and I won’t force you if you don’t get along with me.”

Li Jiu was silent for a long time, and finally took out a handful of shell coins from his pocket and put them on the table: "Today's money for noodles and drinks."

Seeing Li Jiu like this, Tao Lu immediately lost interest and opened the door of the bar: "Thank you for your patronage."

Li Jiu's eyes drooped slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He drank the orange juice and Sprite in his glass, picked up the cloth bag with the harp on his back, and left the bar without saying a word.

Tao Lu leaned against the door of the bar boredly, looking at Li Jiu's back with great interest.

He is a romantic person, but too romantic, so romantic that it is out of tune with reality.
