Chapter 405: Hospitality in the Underworld, the Woman Who Intruded
The three of them stopped in front of a large red-walled courtyard.
The walls of this courtyard are made of red bricks, looking like blood jade, majestic under the light.
The black wooden door in front of me has two rings of ghost face door cymbals hanging on it. It looks a bit weird, but it gives people an inimitable, sacred and solemn feeling.
Looking up, you can see an ancient building standing inside the wall. The building is four stories high and the eaves are carved with all kinds of strange creatures with claws and fangs. The most eye-catching is the night pearl on the top of the ancient building, which is emitting a little bright light and looks simple and majestic.
"Brother Su, please come in."
Du Zhiren stretched out his hand and knocked on the ghost face door cymbal on the wooden door. With a dull sound, the heavy wooden door slowly opened.
Su Mu walked into the courtyard, and what came into view was the ancient building he had just seen outside the wall. After looking at it up close, he was even more amazed.
I have to say that the buildings here are very distinctive, just like the Chang'an City at night, dreamy and picturesque, with candles brightly lit.
"Brother Su, this is my humble home."
"My humble abode is simple, I hope you won't despise it, Senior."
This is Du Ziren's mansion. If you observe carefully, you will find that Du Ziren's mansion has a very good geographical location. It is close to the city. There are no other buildings around it, and the surrounding buildings have no more than two floors. From this point, you can see how high Du Ziren's status is.
"It's much better than mine." Su Mu said with a smile.
Since Su Mu came to this river, he has been living in that small courtyard. It is not large, with a front yard and a back yard. It can only be said that the facilities are complete, but it is not luxurious. Compared with Du Ziren's mansion, his own small courtyard seems very simple.
"How can we compare?"
"I don't have any special abilities. I am already very satisfied with having this little piece of land and finding a quiet place to live."
Du Ziren waved his hands quickly.
Senior Su lives on the long river, how can it be the same?
Although this place is very close to the River of Time, it is essentially still living under the River of Time and is constrained by the River of Time. Senior Su, on the other hand, lives above time, transcending time and is not in the same dimension at all.
"Brother Su, please come in."
After saying that, Du Ziren led Su Mu into the ancient building.
Although the ancient building looks luxurious on the outside, it is very simple inside, with only very simple furniture and facilities. The most eye-catching thing is of course the murals on the wall, which depict various patterns, like ferocious beasts, but Su Mu can't tell what species they are.
"Brother Su, go upstairs."
The area of the second floor is much smaller and the facilities are simpler. There is only a quaint long wooden table with piles of memorials and books placed on it. In front of the table is a chair throne shaped like a Qiongqi crawling on the ground.
"This should be where you usually work, right?" Su Mu asked.
"Yes, I usually handle things here." Du Ziren replied with a smile.
"Brother Su, let's continue going upstairs."
In this way, the three of them came to the fourth floor of the top floor.
After reaching the fourth floor, the view suddenly becomes clear. There is a pavilion on the top floor, from where you can see the scenery and buildings in the ancient city.
There is a large round table in the middle, on which are placed all kinds of delicacies, a full banquet of Manchu and Han cuisine, which looks so tempting with its color, aroma and taste.
"Brother Su, sit down."
Du Ziren personally pulled out a bench for Su Mu, and the three of them sat down. Su Mu sat in the upper eighth seat, which had the best view. He could look up and see the night outside the pavilion.
"Brother Su, my place is small, my capacity is limited, and I haven't prepared any good dishes."
There were a total of thirty-three dishes on the table. Su Mu could be considered a qualified gourmet. These ingredients were obviously very noble and top-grade, just like the plate of white jade dragon heart in front of him.
The White Jade Dragon is also a type of dragon, and a very noble dragon at that. It is said that the White Jade Dragon is made of top-level treasures, and an ordinary cultivator can ascend to heaven by eating even a small piece of its meat. Of course, this is only an exaggeration, but it also indirectly proves the rarity and preciousness of the White Jade Dragon meat.
This plate contains all the most precious treasures of the White Jade Dragon and his most precious treasures.
There are thirty-two kinds of top-notch dishes like the White Jade Dragon's Heart, which shows how strong Du Ziren's background is and how high his status is. These ingredients are not easy to get. They can no longer be considered ingredients, but top-notch medicines.
Du Ziren picked up a white jade wine bottle on the table, stood up, and leaned over to fill Su Mu's glass with wine.
The Rotating King looked at the white jade wine bottle in front of him, licked his lips unconsciously and swallowed his saliva. He didn't expect that the boss would even take out this wine!
He was also shameless, picking up another bottle on the table and pouring himself a full glass.
Seeing this, Du Ziren glared at him inconspicuously, "You kid, are you taking advantage of someone's misfortune?"
However, he did not stop the Rotating King. After all, Senior Su was here, so he just let him drink as much as he wanted today. There was no other way. The decision had already been made.
As the wine poured into the glass, a peculiar aroma flowed into Su Mu's nostrils, causing him to take a deep breath unconsciously, and he felt a tingling sensation all over his body.
Good wine!
Just by smelling the wine, he could already tell it was definitely good wine!
"Brother Su, I'd like to offer you a toast. Thank you for your kindness. I'll drink it. Please do as you please!"
After saying that, Du Ziren drank it all in one gulp. In an instant, his neck began to turn slightly red, which showed how strong the wine was!
Su Mu also drank it in one gulp.
The wine went down his throat and turned into a warm energy that spread throughout his body and reached deep into his soul!
Even my soul felt numb, and an irresistible force of alcohol rushed to my head. I felt a little dizzy, but not drunk.
Su Mu thought that he could drink quite well. He could drink several thousand kilograms of wine that he brewed himself, which was just a drop in the bucket. After all, it was impossible for someone with his level of cultivation to get drunk. He would only get drunk if he wanted to, without trying to dispel the drunkenness.
But the wine I drank was difficult to dispel completely, and I still felt a little dizzy.
After Su Mu finished drinking, Du Ziren immediately filled his glass again.
Compared to Su Mu and Du Ziren, the Rotation King was not in a good situation. After drinking that cup of wine just now, his face turned red and he felt that the world started to spin.
As we were drinking, there was a series of knocks on the door downstairs.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man dressed in black and wearing a ghost mask trotted up to Du Ziren and said something.
Du Ziren frowned and asked, "What is she doing here?"
"Kick her out!"
After hearing this, the middle-aged man was terrified and trembling. How dare I? !
Boom boom boom——
A sound of light footsteps was heard, and a figure had arrived on the fourth floor.
"Hey, Du Laogui, why didn't you call me when you were drinking?"
This voice, like heavenly music, was extremely charming when it entered the ears. It was just a voice, but even the soul felt numb.
Hearing this voice, the Wheel King seemed to sober up all of a sudden, he was completely frightened awake!
