The Tavern
A month later, at the border of Yan and Zhao, in front of the Yi River. Walking into the Swallow Land, he saw that everything around him was piled up with snow, turning into all kinds of shapes. The ground was as white as a blanket, wrapping the ground tightly.
Ji Ruchangfeng strolled alone. He felt like he was dreaming.
"It was as if a spring breeze had suddenly come, and thousands of pear trees had bloomed. The snowy scenery in the northern country was truly unique. Although it was cold, it was bone-deep. It wasn't easy. After rushing for more than a month, they finally arrived at the Yan Country. In his previous life, it would only take a day to fly from Guangdong to Beijing. The productivity in ancient times was really too low.”Ji Ruchangfeng sat on his horse and looked at the Yishui River at the border of Yan and Zhao. He could not help but complain.
"The Yan Country is located in the northernmost part of the Great Land. It's already autumn. Even though it was late autumn, the weather was still bone-chilling, and it was snowing lightly. Sigh, it's almost dark. Let's find a restaurant to settle down.”As he spoke, he rode his horse towards the territory of Yan Country.
After a long time, the clear sound of a zither came from afar and entered Ji Ru Changfeng's ears.
"Guqin music? Looks like there's someone nearby." After saying that, Ji Ru Changfeng rode his horse in the direction of the sound of the zither.
Ji Ru Changfeng, who had followed the sound of the zither, looked at the tavern in front of him. He could vaguely hear the sound of the zither coming from the tavern.
Ji Ruchangfeng jumped off the horse's back and grabbed the horse's reins. He looked around and saw that there was no manger around, so he could only hang the horse on a pillar beside the restaurant.
Ji Ru Changfeng, who had settled the horse, went forward and pushed open the door of the restaurant.
"Guest, come in quickly. The wind and snow outside are too heavy, and it's warm inside.”A waiter dressed like a waiter looked at Ji Ruchangfeng and said.
Ji Ruchangfeng didn't reply. He walked leisurely and sat at a table.
The waiter stepped forward and closed the door. He walked to Ji Ruchangfeng's side and said,"It's such a cold and snowy day. Hurry up and drink a cup of hot wine to warm your bones.”
"What good wine do you have here?" Ji Ruchangfeng looked at the waiter and asked.
"This small shop has the most powerful Fiery Cloud Roast in Yan Country. Would you like to try it?”The waiter asked.
"The most powerful path? Then prepare some side dishes for me. I'll cook a jar of the blazing cloud you mentioned.”Ji Ru Changfeng said to the waiter.
"Alright, please wait a moment. Your wine and dishes will be served to you soon.”After saying that, the waiter walked towards the kitchen.
Ji Ruchangfeng sat on a stool and listened to the music played by the guqin player. He felt that something was wrong.
"How could such a small shop with no one around it hire such a good zither player? Could it be that there's some secret?" Ji Ruchangfeng looked at the zither player who was playing and thought to himself.
The more Ji Ruchangfeng looked, the more he felt that this zither player was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard of him before.
After a while, the waiter placed a jar of so-called Fierce Cloud Roast and a few dishes on Ji Ruchangfeng's table. He looked at Ji Ruchangfeng and said,"Sir, your wine and dishes have been served. Please enjoy.”
"Waiter." Ji Ru Changfeng looked at the waiter who had stood up and said.
"May I ask if there is anything else I can do for you?”The waiter asked.
"I want to ask you something." Ji Ru Changfeng looked at the waiter and said.
"Please speak, sir. I will tell you everything I know.”The waiter looked at Ji Ru Changfeng and said.
"What's the name of this zither player?”Ji Ru Changfeng looked at the waiter and asked.
"Sir, you're talking about Mr. Gao, right? He's famous in our Yan Country.”
"Waiter, I asked for his name. You don't have to tell me anything else.”Ji Ruchangfeng interrupted.
"Yes, yes. The zither player you mentioned is called Gao Jianli.”The waiter quickly replied.
"Waiter, you can go now.”Ji Ru Changfeng looked at the waiter and said.
"Alright, sir, please enjoy your meal!" The waiter said and went down.
"Gao Jianli? So it was him, then Jing Ke should be here too.”After saying that, Ji Ruchangfeng swept his gaze around and finally saw a young man lying on a table in a corner. The other was still holding a wine jar and pouring wine into a bowl.
"This is Jing Ke, right? Just like what the anime said, he's really an alcoholic.”Ji Ruchangfeng looked at Jing Ke's position and could not help but smile.
Clang. The sound of the door opening attracted the attention of the Jiu family. A middle-aged man wearing a cloak and a bamboo hat stood outside the restaurant.
Some of the people who were enjoying the food and wine saw the middle-aged man. They looked at their companions around them and began to enjoy the food and wine again.
"Guest, come in quickly. The wind and snow outside are too heavy, and it's warm inside.”The waiter welcomed the person in and said,"It's such a cold and snowy day. Hurry up and drink a cup of hot wine to warm your bones. The store has the most powerful Lie Yun Shao in Yan Country. Would you like to try it?”
The middle-aged man ignored the waiter and walked straight to Gao Jianli's side. He looked at Gao Jianli and said,""Are you Gao Jianli?" Although his tone was inquiring, it was very certain.
"Sir, this Mr. Gao is very famous in Yan Country." The waiter hurriedly came forward and said.”
"Buddy." the middle-aged man interrupted.
"Hehe, customer. What are your orders?" The waiter quickly said.
"I heard that the wine here is good?" The middle-aged man looked at Gao Jianli and said.
"A ten-year-old Fiery Cloud Burn. Although I can't say how precious it is, in terms of strength, it is definitely.”
"Give him 10 catties." The middle-aged man pointed at Gao Jianli. "Hurry up and go."
The waiter looked at Gao Jianli and said to the middle-aged man,""Immediately." With that, he went down to get wine.
"You came looking for me?" Gao Jianli looked at the middle-aged man and said.
"I heard that your alcohol tolerance is very good."
"I never drink with strangers."
"I'm from the Qin country." The middle-aged man looked at Gao Jianli and said.
"I have no friends in the State of Qin."
"Your friend's surname is Kuang."
"Surname Kuang?" Gao Jianli looked at the middle-aged man and muttered.
"Is he your friend?" the middle-aged man said indifferently.
Ji Ru Changfeng looked at this scene and smiled indifferently. In the blink of an eye, he poured wine, but he saw a customer below reach under the table.
"You were entrusted by someone?" Gao Jianli continued to ask.
"A thousand miles away." The middle-aged man replied indifferently.
"The good wine is here." The waiter handed two wine glasses to the two of them.
"Sure enough, it's good wine. I'll drink it first.”The middle-aged man finished the wine.
Jing Ke, who was sitting in an inconspicuous corner, smiled.
