Chapter 1724: Jianghu Wine
These questions are not impossible to answer, but once my answer causes certain consequences or even influences, I will become a rebel against Black Town.
"The last question." Ye Xiao handed over ten purple spirit coins as if by inertia.
The black-clothed man's orange peel-like face was already full of collapse, and he took it by inertia.
Where did this question baby come from?
He even asked about Black Town's traps... He also asked about Black Town's ambushes.
But he couldn't help but answer. I swore a poisonous oath to the rules of Black Town's questions. If I took the money and didn't answer, I would really be punished by God...
It's really the first time in countless years that I have encountered such a question baby today.
Is he here to show off his wealth? !
You have too much money to spend, it's your business, why do you have to show off your wealth here, is it really okay? !
"You still have questions, what else do you have?" The black-clothed man was weak.
"How many treasures are there in Black Town?" Ye Xiao smiled kindly and gently.
"Treasure?" The man in black blinked his eyes, and suddenly his eyes became a little ferocious. He looked at Ye Xiao with ill intentions, and said with a chuckle: "There are so many treasures in the Black Town that you can't imagine!"
"Is that so? That's great?!" Ye Xiao nodded: "Thank you so much for your answer!"
...
Until Ye Xiao and the other two had entered the Black Town, the man in black was still staring at him, and he hadn't put the ten purple spirit coins in his hand into his pocket.
"This kid asked so many questions, but he only said thank you to me for the last question?"
"What does he mean? What is so good?"
"Don't mess around, at least for now." The Flower King warned: "I have said before that although this Black Town is small, it is the place where the tentacles of various forces in the Boundless Sea meet. Not only are there a lot of people, but there are also many hidden dragons and crouching tigers. There are many first-class masters among them. I have been stagnant for a long time, and I have declined more in recent years. I may not be able to deal with the masters here... Looking at the long years of hundreds of thousands of years in the entire Boundless Sea, there are only three places that can be called truly peaceful; one is the Red Dust Valley, one is the Chaos City, and the other is here."
Ye Junjun has a reputation for being high up in the sky. How could the Flower King not know why he asked so much in detail?
"With your cultivation, you should be able to sense that there are less than 20 people in this Black Town; but even here, near the core of the Boundless Sea; no one has dared to cause trouble here for hundreds of thousands of years... This itself can explain too many problems."
"As for the saying that there are many treasures in Black Town, this is indeed true. In fact, there are more than treasures, there are also a lot of wealth, or a lot of natural treasures. But no matter how jealous you are, you can't act rashly... To be frustrating, even if my cultivation is restored to its peak level, I may not be willing to fight Black Town, Even if you are confident that you can deal with the twenty or so people in front of Heizhen, do you know what unknown background there is behind them, behind the scenes, and even underground..."
"In a word, Heizhen is an iron plate that is difficult to shake."
Ye smiled and said, "Brother Hua Wang, I fully understand your mature and steady intention. In fact, the most important purpose of my coming here is really to find out information; by the way, I also look around here... It's rare that there are such considerate non-hidden rules here. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and knowing the enemy, you can be safe in all things... Hehe, if you can help in the end, it would be the best. If not, it doesn't matter."
Hua Wang nodded.
The three of them walked side by side and slowly walked into Heizhen.
What they saw was a tavern.
It's just that this tavern will give you a different visual sense at first glance. All taverns have a plaque, or black background with gold characters, or black background with silver characters, and the worst is black background with yellow characters, so that it looks more noble and also has the meaning of gathering wealth.
However, the plaque of this tavern is white, and the name of the inn written on it is even more blood-red.
Jianghu wine!
These four words are the name of the tavern? !
Even though Ye Xiao has been in the martial arts world for a long time, he still has some doubts about the name of this store. Is it too straightforward?
There are also the couplets on both sides of the door of the tavern, all in blood-red characters.
The upper couplet reads: Be it gratitude or hatred, come here to get drunk!
The lower couplet reads: Be it life or death, drink three cups together!
It is a dragon flying and phoenix dancing, iron painting and silver hook!
"Jianghu wine!" Ye Xiao stopped in front of the door, and looked at this couplet for a long time, and breathed a long sigh of relief, saying: "Good couplet! Good wine!"
Hua Wang also stared at this couplet for a long time, and there was a hint of worry between his eyebrows.
"This plaque and the couplet... are painted with the blood of the spirit beast Sky Centipede, which is over 100,000 years old. Sky Centipede is a level nine spirit beast. The blood of 10,000 years old is green, 30,000 years old is red, and 90,000 years old is purple. Only after 100,000 years old will the blood turn pure white. As paint, it can be guaranteed to last forever."
"But a Sky Centipede that is over 100,000 years old is a real level 12 peak spirit beast, comparable to a human immortal realm powerhouse. Although this level of spirit beast is full of treasures, it is unimaginably difficult to kill it!"
"As for the dye with the big characters on it, it is most likely the blood of a seven-legged blue dragon. The blue dragon's foundation is even more extraordinary. It was born with only two legs, but it grows one more leg every ten thousand years. If it can grow eight legs, it can become an eight-part celestial dragon. That is a divine beast that transcends the boundaries of this world."
"When this dragon has seven legs, it is only one step away from becoming an eight-part celestial dragon. If it is killed, the resentment will rise to the sky, and the color of its blood can also keep the blood color unchanged forever. However, the blue dragon with seven legs is also at the level of an immortal strongman, or even an immortal. The level of the late stage of the realm, how can it be easy to hunt and kill! "
"Use the blood of the sky centipede and the blood of the blue dragon to write the name of the tavern, and the couplets on both sides..."
The flower king took a deep breath: "This Jianghu wine... The more you think about it, the more complicated it is. If you want to drink it, I'm afraid it's not so delicious."
Ye Xiao said lightly: "As the saying goes, people in the rivers and lakes are not free, and the wine of the rivers and lakes must be drunk by the people of the rivers and lakes."
The three people have been standing in front of the door for a long time, but there is no reaction inside the dark door of the tavern.
The dark door is more like the mouth of a prehistoric giant. Ready to eat people!
However, when Ye Xiao walked in, he immediately knew that he had made a mistake this time.
The interior of this "Jianghu Tavern" is surprisingly an alternative space.
The moment Pu Yi stepped into the door, he suddenly felt that his eyes were full of light, as bright as day.
Looking closely, he saw that the top of his head was full of night pearls.
And each night pearl must be at least the size of a bowl.
From the outside, it looked like a small tavern with a radius of no more than a dozen feet. But once you enter, you will find that it is a huge space of no less than a hundred feet! At this moment, many tables inside have guests drinking.
Each table of guests seemed to be talking loudly, but the sound could never reach other people's ears.
They did not disturb each other.
The three of them walked to an empty table and sat down. Then two young men in white came over politely: "Sir, you are here. What do you want to order?"
The two young men had handsome faces and slender figures. Their every move was as standard as a textbook. They were obviously trained very strictly. They were dressed in white clothes, which were simple and clean. They were liked at first sight.
At first glance, the place looked dark and dirty from the outside, but it was so clean and spotless inside. It was a sharp contrast and a strong visual impact!
Ye Xiao said, "This is my first visit to your restaurant. I don't know what your specialty dishes are. Let me take a look at the menu."
A young man in white brought a menu, but the menu was snow-white with neat handwriting. There was nothing special about it, but there were surprises.
"Sir, one menu costs ten purple spirit coins."
Ye Xiao was stunned: "Do I have to pay just to look at the menu?"
"Yes, the menu of our restaurant is a one-time consumer product. After you have read it, this menu will not be shown to the second guest. For the final disposal of this menu, you can take it away or sign it as a souvenir of the restaurant. If you choose to keep it, you need to pay another ten purple spirit coins."
"Of course, if you want to make your name more conspicuous, you can choose to pay one thousand purple spirit coins, so that you can list your name on the wall, and write a few words on the menu, or leave a poem."
The young man in white was polite and talked freely.
But Ye Xiao was a little dumbfounded. What the hell is going on? A menu costs ten purple spirit coins. If you don't take it away, you have to keep ten more purple spirit coins. If you want a signature, it costs one thousand purple spirit coins. What kind of weird rules are these? It's too dark!
Ye Xiao looked around and saw that there were really many things posted on the wall; but some of them were covered with black gauze.
"People are in danger at any time, especially for people in the martial arts world. Those covered with black gauze are all former customers of our store, but now they are dead... But even if they are dead, our store will not remove them, but cover them with black gauze to show respect."
The young waiter in white explained in detail.
"..." Ye Xiao was speechless.
This store can do so much business. I really don't know whether to say admiration or amazement.
Originally, after coming here, Ye Xiao had completely given up the original intention of robbing this "black town".
But at this moment, he had another idea.
"Your store's idea is very touching. As the saying goes, people leave their names behind and wild geese leave their voices behind. Today, I have the chance to come here, so I should leave my name behind so that you can witness the first edition of my legend in Jianghu Tavern. What's the use of a mere 1,000 purple spirit coins?" Ye Xiao laughed, "Bring the pen and ink."
The young man in white curled his lips imperceptibly, thinking, here comes another idiot, the first edition of legend? ! I'll see you finish it that day...
Working here, I've seen too many idiots like fat sheep.
On average, I can definitely see many of them in a year...
Almost every young man who has just started to walk the Jianghu thinks that he is a rare talent who has emerged out of nowhere and will definitely leave his name in history...
He was complaining in his heart, but he looked kind on the surface, and he took the pen and ink swiftly.
Ye Xiao nodded, dipped the ink in ink, and started writing on the title page.
"The King of Laughs, who turns the world upside down, is supreme in the vast sea and sky; he points his sword to the sky and the earth, leaving a mark of ink without boundaries today!"
Then write: The King of Laughs, Ye Xiao, dined here on a certain day of a certain year.
This is done.
Then we officially started ordering dishes.
This is a piece of calligraphy left by Ye Xiao when he was young and frivolous; Ye Xiao's mark here today is really more of a joke. But no one could have imagined that many years later, this piece of calligraphy and this recipe would become the most magnificent scene in Wujianghai!
No one could have imagined that the only complete calligraphy with signature left by Lord Xiao, who had a brilliant and legendary life like a storybook, was left in the tavern in the rivers and lakes of Wujianghai Black Town!
After Ye Xiao swept the world, the host of Wujianghai Black Town sealed this menu and placed it in the most conspicuous position. Every time he worshipped like a ancestor...
Later generations who had the opportunity to see it all bowed down and worshiped it, and then, with an extremely respectful mood, ordered a dish exactly as Lord Xiao ordered that year.
Opening the first page of Ye Xiao's calligraphy, it was a famous dish, a famous dish that was a famous dish at first glance.
"Swordsmanship in the Jianghu."
"Swordsmanship in the Jianghu, the joy of revenge! Not bad, not bad, one serving!"
The second dish: grudges and love and hatred.
"The Jianghu is a place of grudges and love and hatred! Not bad, not bad, one serving!"
The third dish: life and death battle!
"How can the Jianghu be without life and death battles? Not bad, not bad, one serving!"
The fourth dish: The mortal world.
"Not bad, not bad, a bit of artistic conception, one serving."
After clicking for more than 20 pages, Ye Xiao saw another dish. Of course, the main reason was that the name of the dish was too tempting.
"Supreme Beauty."
"This name is too good, one serving!"
Ye Xiao ordered more than 20 dishes, the cheapest of which cost 50 purple spirit coins; as for the most expensive, it was directly as high as 999 purple spirit coins. After finishing a table of dishes, 7,000 purple spirit coins were used up before eating!
Finally, Ye Xiao was looking for a soup, of course, because the name of the dish was also tempting.
"Leaning on Red and Cucumbering on Green".
Thinking that he would soon reunite with Xuanbing Jun Yinglian and others, he would definitely be considered to have a complete wife and concubines, so he waved his hand and ordered them all.
Ordering so many dishes in one go made Hua Wang frown, but Ye Xiao didn't care at all and waved his hand simply: "Serve it!"
Such a generous guest made the white-clothed waiter next to him smack his lips.
The price of each dish in this 'Jianghu Wine' tavern is thousands of times more than that outside.
Although there are many wealthy people who come here to get drunk, I have never seen a super rich person who orders such a large table at one time.
The 'Jianghu Wine' tavern never worries about diners eating a free meal, because there is no possibility of that. The meal must be paid before the dishes are served... and then you can talk about enjoying the food later. With this mechanism, even if you insist on eating a free meal, it is logically unreasonable!
When the dishes came, Ye Xiao saw it and immediately felt that he was fooled.
