Chapter 55: The Lethality of Moutai

"Look at the top one, two, and three on the Justice League's reputation list." Fang Lin said lazily, leaning comfortably by the fire. At this time, Nakolulu had already reunited with the separated tribesmen, and also saw her younger sister Limululu, whose injuries had improved a lot. After confirming that Kaminomura was safe, they decided to immediately set off and speed back to Edo to report the information because of the information they had received before.

Xin Yuan did not dare to neglect, so he immediately checked and said in astonishment:

"Since the reputation of you and the Taliban surpasses the third place by a lot, the current ranking has not changed much. The current reputation ranking is as follows. The first place should be you: Reverence (8211/12000), No. The two of them should be the mysterious Taliban in Kyoto. , his level is also revered, but it is only (5152/12000), which is more than 3000 points less than yours. As for the reputation of the third place, it is relatively much lower, only the difference of 3000 points of reputation is revered (2116/4000). It’s already very scary.”

Note: Reputation is: Stranger/Friendly/Respected/Reverent/Worship/Worship.

Fang Lin said slowly:

"When I signed the contract with the Taliban, I guaranteed that before the end of the first main mission, his reputation would be at the top of the Justice League. As long as my reputation is not enough, the Taliban will definitely be the first. Look at the current gap between the justice side’s second and third reputation. It should be huge, right?”

"In other words, if I don't step in and gain reputation wildly, then it can be said that the Taliban has firmly topped the reputation list of the Justice League! The third person behind him cannot give him any threat, so there will be no pressure on him. He will definitely dedicate his manpower to pay attention to the movements in Edo City, and my actions will also be under their supervision! Now you should understand why I must be the first in the Justice League, right?"

Xin Yuan finally understood and nodded. Fang Lin continued:

"And I set up such a layout. It can gain three major benefits. First, it can weaken the power of this mysterious and powerful Taliban. Second, it can also use this to betray intelligence to both sides. It can not only betray the movements of plot characters To the Taliban and others, and to sell their information to plot characters.”

"The most important benefit! Instead, it's a frame-up! You know, Bai Mu Sheng's unexpected death must have aroused some people's suspicions, and I also asked Heizi for detailed information about Nakolulu and Galford. , now that something like this has happened to the two of them, their strength has been greatly damaged. There is no doubt that these people will doubt my mind. If you don't doubt me, they will be the heroes of Samurai Shodown in vain. Without these two scapegoats to help me take responsibility, even if I am not directly kicked out of the Justice League, I will still have a hard time doing things in the future! Huh, now...everyone's attention is focused on Kyoto, and I feel like a fish in water, letting me roam freely."

"So where should we go now? It doesn't seem to be the way back to Edo?" Xinyuan asked next.

Fang Lin nodded and said:

"Yes. Let's go to Feichan and Kuhuayuan now. Since Lao Hu and the others can exchange their reputation for some very useful props and items, then the righteous party can naturally do the same. Why should they give away their reputation in vain? People, if you do this, you can also remove my shadow. Does it sound? The leader of the dark side is undoubtedly Luo Jiangshen. Although there are many powers on the justice side, the real protagonist is Bawangmaru. Therefore, if the reputation of the justice camp can be purchased. Whatever benefits you get in exchange will fall on him.”

Name: Bawangwan.

Date of birth: Thirteenth year of Baoli (1763)

Birthplace: Musashi Province Castle Town

Height: five feet seven inches (173cm)

Weight: 17 eyes (68kg)

Blood type: type a

Genre: Woliu (self-created)

When I feel peaceful: When I drink good wine

Favorite type: Yamato Nadeshiko

Training place: Guliu Island

This forthright and good-drinking swordsman lives with his master, Kazuin Kazuno, in the famous temple in Feizen: Kukain. Fang Lin had already heard clearly before that, Hana, who is proficient in Togakure-style Yin and Yang techniques, Although Xi Yuan and Zhong have eccentric personalities and stay at home, Bawangmaru will come to the small wine shop at the foot of the mountain to drink on time after finishing sword training every afternoon, and will buy a bottle of wine and go back to the sword training place in the evening. Time to drink.

Among the Jodo Shinshu sect of Buddhism in Japan, meat and alcohol are not tabooed. You can even marry and have children. Unlike Chinese Buddhism, which generally has many precepts, this custom was implemented throughout the country after the Meiji Restoration, so Bawang Wan can openly bring wine and meat back to feast. Fang Lin then arrived at the small wine shop early, threw a small gold coin directly to the boss, chose the best seat next to the table, and grandly set up the stove below, steaming and stewing with a pot. Dog meat.

In the real world, Fang Lin shamelessly relied on his abnormal memory to secretly learn a lot of cooking secrets. Now he was doing it deliberately. After simmering for a while, white waves rolled in the pot. A few ordinary seasonings were added, and the aroma was really fragrant. It was really "dog meat rolled three times, and the gods couldn't sit still", which caused almost all the guests to twitch their throats and were ready to move. However, when they saw Fang Lin's golden hand shape that seemed to be casually placed at his side, and looked at the burly figure of the fourth brother next to him, they immediately put away their thoughts of chatting.

Suddenly, with a "crash", the bamboo curtain at the door was lifted up, giving people the feeling that it was not opened by a person's hand, but a very fierce gust of wind that blew it open. Then, a lazy and heroic man strode in. He casually put the thick, oily black scabbard on his shoulders, and tied his stiff black hair behind his head, giving people a feeling of unruly fluttering. He was wearing a white suit, with his strong chest muscles exposed, and a black flowing belt tied around his waist.

The number one hero in the plot - Bawangwan!

After Bawangwan sat down, he found that the strange young man sitting by the window had been staring at his scabbard. He had seen such rebellious eyes many times. He didn't care, asked for a pot of muddy wine, a plate of dried beans, and drank it with a rough pottery bowl. But soon, the big man smelled another strange and tempting aroma, which was simply irresistible. You know, the meat aroma hovering at the tip of the nose was extremely strong. But the other aroma was mixed in it, but it was not covered up at all, and it curled into the heart. After smelling this smell, I felt that the sake in my mouth was just like clear water!

Everyone took a closer look and found that Fang Lin and his party had taken out an ordinary-looking earthenware wine jar, unplugged the cork wrapped in cloth, and put it in the warm water next to it to heat it. Watching the hand of the man holding the bottle of wine slowly swinging, the mood of the drunkards was also swinging up and down.

There were two lines of vigorous and vigorous ancient Chinese seal characters on the wine jar:

The flavor of the three houses next door is drunk,

After the rain, the bottle is opened for ten miles

There are two large seal characters below: Maotai!

This jar of wine was bought by Fang Lin in the nightmare space. Even though daily necessities were very cheap, it cost a full 300 points. It can really be said that he spent a lot of money. Look at the wine warming the meat. Fang Lin deliberately looked at the sword of Bawangmaru and exclaimed:

"Good sword!"

This sword is also very famous. In 1197 (the eighth year of Kenkyu), Bawangmaru's sword-the inscribed sword Fugu Du was born. No one knows who made it, and no one knows why it finally fell into Bawangmaru's hands. After hundreds of years, on September 5 (the thirteenth year of Baoli), Bawangmaru was born. But Haohmaru seemed to be found in a forest by his adoptive mother along with his famous sword, Pufferfish Poison. It is still unknown who his biological parents are.

Haohmaru was naturally very happy when someone praised his beloved sword, and laughed loudly:

"My sword is good! Your wine is good too!"

"Good wine also needs a high drinker. Since we are both wine lovers, could you please taste this wine with us strangers!" Fang Lin invited!

"This is not appropriate. Your wine is a wonderful thing in the Middle Earth. We just met for the first time, so it is inconvenient to bother you!" What kind of status is Haohmaru. The number one plot hero in the world of Samurai Shodown has his own reservedness. However, it is obvious that he still wants to taste the "divine" wine, but he can't let go of his face at the moment!

So…

Since the conversation had started, it was naturally the turn of the “intimate” craftsman Fu to come on stage. He immediately ran over and said a few words that it would be unjust if Bawangwan didn’t come over to sit down and drink with his master. He invited him to the table very smoothly (in fact, it seemed that Bawangwan really wanted to come over!), but Fang Lin never mentioned the exchange. He just kept urging him to drink and offer meat.

No one knew that Bawangwan was quite proficient in cooking. He praised the stewed dog meat after tasting two bites, and then said that the aftertaste was still a little lacking, so he called the boss to mix oil, sugar, mirin and broth into a sauce called “Kari-shita”, and then boiled beef, green onions, vegetables, konjac and tofu in the pot until half-cooked. Dipping it in the sauce also has a very unique flavor.

As the group was eating, they kept getting nightmare marks:

"Your favorability with the plot powerhouse Bawangwan has increased...", and after eating this meal, at least six or seven points of favorability were added, directly changing from stranger to friendly, and the 300 points were worth it.

After eating and drinking, Fang Lin did not hide anything and directly told them his intention. After hearing that they had killed so many monsters, Bawangwan's expression suddenly became quite respectful. After listening to the craftsman Fu's tearful complaints about how scarce their materials were and how poor their medicines were, he immediately believed it and personally took them to Kuhuayuan, telling them that their teacher Hua Fengyuan and Zhong were very proficient in various means of treatment, and they could use the merits of killing monsters to seek his help.
