Chapter 299: Xuan Ming
“This wine…”
Smelling the familiar fragrance, Jiang Lixing looked a little strange. What did it mean to have been brewed for many years? This was clearly Shen Tu's private treasure. When was it stolen by Xuan Ming?
"What do you mean by stealing?"
At this moment, Xuan Ming's voice suddenly sounded in Jiang Lixing's mind.
This guy is secretly using his telekinesis to eavesdrop on other people's thoughts again. This bad habit really can't be changed even after thousands of years.
"This was given to me by Shentu. Some time ago, something happened at Guimenguan, and I helped him. He gave me this pot of wine as a thank you."
Shentu is worshipped as a door god by many mortals in the folk. Of course, he is indeed a god. He is usually responsible for guarding the east gate of Fengdu City, which is also the Ghost Gate.
Shen Tu has a hobby, which is drinking a little wine.
However, there is a saying in the mortal world that too much alcohol can cause trouble. Just a few days ago, he got drunk and overslept, which caused him to forget to close the gates of hell and almost caused a big mess.
"Did something happen at the gate of hell?"
Hearing Xuan Ming's words, Jiang Lixing was stunned for a moment, but he was not worried at all.
"Tsk, I sense your gloating."
Seeing Jiang Lixing's expression, Xuanming continued to send him a message: "Do you particularly hope that there will be a big chaos in the underworld?"
"No."
Jiang Lixing glanced at Xuanming and denied his guess.
The two people whispered to each other, and the pub suddenly became silent. Ning Huanxin felt that the atmosphere suddenly became cold.
However, the wine poured by Xuan Ming was really fragrant. Ning Huanxin didn't like drinking very much and had few opportunities to drink on weekdays, but this was the first time she had seen such a mellow wine and she really wanted to taste it.
"Eat the food. It won't taste good if it gets cold."
At this time, Jiang Lixing came to his senses and took the initiative to pick up some food for Ning Huanxin.
Seeing his expression that said "I am a 24K pure gold boyfriend", Xuan Ming on the side couldn't help but secretly curl his lips.
Are you so capable now? What were you thinking back then?
"Come on, come on, it's not easy for the three of us to get together again. Well, I mean, this is the first time we're having dinner together. Come on, let's have a drink!"
Xuan Ming really couldn't stand seeing Jiang Lixing showing off his affection in front of him.
But he couldn't beat him, so he made a decision -
Drink, get him drunk.
"Um."
Hearing Xuan Ming's words, Jiang Lixing and Ning Huanxin also raised their glasses. The wine smelled very fragrant, and it didn't have that spicy feeling when it went into the mouth. Ning Huanxin even thought that the wine was sweet. "Why is the wine sweet?"
She asked somewhat unexpectedly.
Hearing her words, Jiang Lixing on the side just smiled gently -
The wine brewed by Shentu is not ordinary wine, but spiritual wine. When you drink this spiritual wine, you can taste all the flavors of life, including bitterness, sweetness, sourness, and spiciness.
Because Ning Huanxin was with Jiang Lixing, she was in a good mood and felt sweet and happy, so the wine she drank tasted sweet.
As for Xuanming, he...
"Your wine is sour."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Jiang Lixing's voice suddenly rang in Xuanming's mind. Xuanming's eyes fixed and a bitter look flashed across the corner of his mouth.
He felt envious and sad when he saw other people's sweetness.
Because... he is a being who cannot obtain happiness.
Xuan Ming was not angry when Jiang Lixing exposed his scars so blatantly, because they had known each other for too long.
This kind of ruthless personality is the real Jiang Lixing.
…………
"If you like this wine, you can take the rest."
Xuan Ming was generous. It wasn't his anyway. Besides, the matter of Ghost Gate was not over yet. It was said that there were still a few little ghosts that had not been caught. If he drank the wine, he would owe Shen Tu a favor. When Shen Tu came to him, no matter how indifferent Jiang Lixing was, he would be embarrassed to stand idly by, right?
I have been saving up manuscripts these two days. I will update more chapters on the day the book is put on sale based on your tips during the free period. My hands are numb from writing all day yesterday. I hope that by the day the book is put on sale I can write a number of words that satisfies myself and pleases everyone.
