The next day, Liu Qingchen woke up leisurely, with a scent of sandalwood wafting from the incense burner in his breath.

Yin Qian Cup handed over a bowl of decoction, said: "Drink my medicine, I will keep you safe."

Liu Qingchen didn't take it over, he was full of guard and said: "Who are you?"

Yin Qianbei smiled and said, "Friends who have never met before."

Liu Qingchen glanced outside, saw Lu Weng sitting there chopping bamboo, so he asked, "Are you Lu Weng's friend?"

Yin Qianbei laughed even deeper, and said, "Of course."

Liu Qingchen thanked him and took the decoction. The medicine was still very hot after it was boiled, so Liu Qingchen didn't drink it right away.

Yin Qianbei sat down beside him and asked, "You call him Lu Weng?"

Liu Qingchen nodded and said, "Isn't Lu Weng called Lu Weng?"

Yin Qianbei smiled again, and said bitterly: "His original name is Lu Dan. The Lu Dan you see is not the real Lu Dan. His original appearance is not like this. After that incident, he never wanted to Show people your true colors."

Liu Qingchen asked curiously: "The real face? Could it be that his original face is scarier than now?"

Yin Qianbei shook his head and said: "No, no, Lu Dan looks much better than you, the green snake. Under this ugly skin, there is a Lu Dan who refuses to let go of his obsession."

Liu Qingchen looked at the handsome drinker in front of him, his words made Liu Qingchen dubious, what kind of obsession would make Lu Weng show others with such a terrifying face.

Yin Qianbei shook the wine gourd in his hand, said: "There is a universe inside, do you dare to find out?"

Liu Qingchen picked up the decoction again, it was not as hot as before, he drank most of it with his head held high, the decoction was so bitter that Liu Qingchen frowned, but he continued to drink patiently, and then the bowl of decoction was drained.

After drinking the soup, Liu Qingchen looked at Yinqian Cup with a bitter face, and said, "What else is there in your wine gourd besides wine?"

Yinqian Cup took another sip of the wine gourd, and said: "Little snake demon has no knowledge, I am Yinqian Cup, but I am the fairy in the pot, as long as the ordinary wine gourd is in my hands, if I say there is a universe in it, there must be something in it." Qiankun, no one can deceive you!"

Liu Qingchen smiled sympathetically, apparently not believing it, in his opinion, drinking a thousand cups of wine never leaves him, who knows whether he is drunk or sober?Who knows how much of what he said is true or not?

Yin Qianbei pretended to be profound and said: "In my wine gourd, what is hidden is Lu Dan's obsession."

Liu Qingchen became interested, he was very curious about Lu Weng's obsession, who and what did he do, Lu Weng would become what he is now.

Liu Qingchen said: "Your wine gourd is so good, how can you hide Lu Weng's obsession?"

Yinqianbei pretended to be respectful and nodded slightly again, Liu Qingchen supported himself and moved to the side of the bamboo couch, noticing that his body was not as painful as before, he was very grateful for Yinqianbei.

Liu Qingchen said: "Can you let me have a look?"

Yin Qian Cup handed the wine gourd to Liu Qingchen, and said, "You only need to take a sip of my wine to find out."

Liu Qingchen took a sip from the wine gourd and handed it back to Yinqian, who said, "Happy."

After drinking a thousand cups of wine, what Liu Qingchen saw was a memory of Lu Weng.In fact, there is nothing in the wine gourd, only a memory about Lu Weng stolen from drinking a thousand cups.

150 years ago.

Lu Dan was originally the mount of Qianbei, a sika deer.Yinqianbei has never ridden Lu Dan, but let Lu Dan transform into a human form and go to the mortal world to drink for him.

That day, Lu Dan came out of a small village drinking a pot of farm wine.On the mountain road outside the village, Lu Dan met a mortal, a shivering child with his back turned to him and huddled behind a tree.

It was cold winter, Lu Dan saw that the child was in rags and was very pitiful, so he stepped forward and asked, "Is it so cold that I can't walk?"

Unexpectedly, when he heard Lu Dan's voice, the child trembled even more, it didn't look like it was cold, but more like it was scared.When the child did not respond, Lu Dan smiled and went around and squatted down in front of the child.Lu Dan will never forget that look, panic and fear.

Liu Qingchen couldn't help being shocked when he saw this, the child's face was exactly the same as today's Lu Weng.But the former Lu Weng, as Yin Qianbei said, had a good face, even compared to Liu Qingchen, he was a bit more handsome.

Lu Dan was only startled for a moment, his gaze softened slowly, he took off a robe on his body to cover the child, and said softly: "It turned out to be a little girl, why did you come here alone in such a cold day? where is your family?"

The only healthy right eye of the little girl was full of tears, and she refused to say a word, but hid at the foot of the tree in fear.

Lu Dan looked at the little girl in front of him distressedly, not out of pity, but inexplicably distressed just looking at it like this.

He squatted on the spot and said softly, "My name is Lu Dan. I'm not a bad person. If your family can't find you in such a cold day, you will be very anxious. I'll take you home, okay?"

The little girl's thin body was still trembling. Everyone called her a monster, and some people threw stones at her, but this person was not there. She looked up at Lu Dan and asked in a low voice, "Are you a fairy?" When she was crying, tears rolled down her eyes.

Lu Dan approached the little girl with a smile, he stretched out his hand to wipe away her tears, and said, "I'm not a fairy."

The little girl said: "Grandma said that all immortals are as good-looking as you."

Lu Dan said: "Then where is your grandma? I will take you to find her."

"Grandma came out to dig wild vegetables, and I sneaked out to find grandma to dig with her, so I met you, a fairy."

"I'll take you home and wait for her, okay?"

"okay."

Lu Dan picked up the little girl, under her tattered clothes, there were eye-catching and hideous scars, even though they were all old scars, Lu Dan was afraid that he would hurt her, so he held her with extra care and gentleness.

The little girl pointed to a stone road with her withered fingers, and said, "Go straight there and you will reach my house."

Lu Dan carried her up the cobblestone road, and asked softly, "What's your name? I want to know your name."

The little girl was no longer afraid, and Lu Dan vaguely saw some joy in her gradually brightening eyes.

She said: "Grandma calls me Shaner, and my name is Cunshan."

The little girl stirred the robe that Lu Dan draped over her body, lowered her head again, and whispered: "I don't know how to write my name. Grandma once told me that to be kind is to have kind thoughts in your heart. Grandma wants to write my name. I am a good person."

The cold wind blew, and the person in Lu Dan's arms shivered from the cold.Her eyes are clear and clear, just like her name, full of kindness.

Lu Dan didn't know what terrible things she had encountered, but it must have caused her great pain, so Lu Dan couldn't bear to ask.

After walking for a while, Cun Shan, who was huddled in Lu Dan's arms, raised his head and said happily, "Look, Immortal, it's snowing."

Lu Dan replied with a smile, "Yes, it's snowing."

The fluttering snow sprinkled between the sky and the earth, more like a drizzle covered the mountains and roads. Lu Dan carried her across the stone road to a dilapidated thatched hut.

The grandma that Cunshan was talking about had gray hair, and she was standing hunched in front of the thatched hut with a bamboo in her hand, shouting "Shan'er" all the time.

She is an octogenarian and has blurred vision.I don't know how long I shouted, but my voice has become hoarse.

When Lu Dan walked up to him, the old man saw clearly that it was her Shan'er who had returned. She said anxiously, "Shan'er, where did you go? It's easy for grandma to find." The blame was full of concern that couldn't be concealed.

That day, Lu Dan stayed overnight in the thatched cottage, and he learned about Cunshan's life experience from his grandmother.In the faint candlelight, tears welled up in Grandma's muddy eyes.When it comes to the past, my heart is pierced like a knife.

Cunshan is the third girl in the family. Her mother failed to give birth to a boy for three consecutive births. She was scolded all day long and sometimes punched at each other.

When Cunshan was five years old, when there was a famine, her biological father thought badly of not being able to support so many children.Cunshan was pushed into the fire and nearly burned to death. Grandma couldn't bear it, so she snatched Cunshan out and fled. She never returned to that home.

Grandma begged the doctor to save Cunshan's life, and the doctor gave them a helping hand when he saw how pitiful they were, without taking any money.Although Cunshan saved his life, he left scars all over his body and became a monster in others' mouths.At that time, Cunshan didn't have a name yet, and his biological father hated her for being a daughter, so he didn't even bother to give her a name.

The name Cunshan was given to her by a kind doctor asked by my grandmother.Cunshan looks ugly and scary. In order not to let her be bullied, her grandmother took her to hide in the forest.Over time, Cunshan is afraid of strangers, and strangers are also afraid of her.

When Lu Dan left the next day, he left a lot of silver and left. He told Grandma that he would come back again.

That was the last time Lu Dan ordered wine for Yinqianbei, and Yinqianbei asked him, "Are you leaving?"

Lu Dan nodded: "I'm going to make alchemy."

Yin Qianbei asked: "What's the use of alchemy? Do you want to take a shortcut and become an immortal?"

Lu Dan left without answering Yin Qianbei. Yin Qianbei found out later that Lu Dan not only did not want to become a fairy, but he also became a demon.

Lu Dan stood in front of the alchemy furnace day and night, read ancient books and searched Qiongge in Xianshan, and finally practiced a kind of elixir called Huanyan Dan, which can restore the appearance and make the appearance not old or hurt.

When Lu Dan went to look for Cunshan and Grandma with the refined Huanyan Pill, the thatched hut had been reduced to ashes, and he was too late in the end.

On the day when Grandma died, Cunshan lit the thatched cottage, and leaned against Grandma with her thin body, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.She lay in the fire with her grandma, and fell asleep as usual, but never woke up again.

Lu Dan knelt down straight, the porcelain white jade bottle containing Huanyan Dan rolled to the ground in his hand, he bent down and buried his face in the ashes.

Yin Qianbei who followed Lu Dan secretly did not dare to approach, he looked at Lu Dan's weeping back and secretly felt sad, he had never seen Lu Dan so heartbroken like today.

Not long after, Yin Qianbei walked away with his back to Lu Dan, and then sat down on the stone road. He didn't want to, and couldn't bear to see Lu Dan like this.

Drinking a thousand cups sitting on the path in the mountains, seeing the twilight in his eyes, the mountain wind blowing slowly, it is clear that the cold winter is over, but it also makes him feel a chill in his heart for no reason.

That night, he drank a thousand cups without touching the wine gourd on his waist, so he just guarded there and sat there for a long night.

Life and death are predestined, he is just a little loose fairy, drunk with wine all day long, dreaming and dying, he can't do anything.

On the second day, when the dawn was twilight, he drank a thousand cups and walked back along the stone road, Lu Dan had completely changed his appearance.He was wearing coarse linen clothes, with a hideous and terrifying face, and he was hunched over and chopping bamboo alone.

At that time, there was only one thought in drinking a thousand cups. The former Lu Dan died.

Lu Dan built a bamboo house on the original thatched cottage, and there are two new graves on the mountain behind the bamboo forest. On the wooden stakes in front of the graves, there are words written, one is Cunshan, and the other is Granny.

The only thing that remains the same is that Lu Dan continues to refine his elixir day and night.Drinking a thousand cups is not only drinking, but also looking for various celestial herbs and elixir for Lu Dan to make alchemy for him.

After reading this stolen memory of drinking thousands of cups, Liu Qingchen didn't speak for a long time, only feeling bitter in his mouth, even bitterer than the bowl of soup he drank earlier.

Yin Qianbei took a sip of wine with a smile and said, "Now you understand."

Liu Qingchen looked up at Yinqian Cup, and asked, "Why did you let me see this?"

"I let you see this because Lu Dan regards you as a friend, and you also regard him as a friend. He made wine for me for ten years, and I searched for medicine for him for a hundred years. He is already lonely in this bamboo house. It's been too long, if you have nothing to do, you will often visit him."

After finishing speaking, Yin Qianbei raised his feet and walked out, Liu Qingchen hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"

Yin Qianbei shook the wine gourd in his hand, without turning his head, he said: "I will find medicine for him."
