Chapter 63 Tea and Spirits I not only want to unravel your mystery, but also...
The night was still early, the light rain had just stopped, and a hint of fragrance suddenly permeated the earthy smell in the air.
The strange fragrance grew stronger and stronger, filling the nostrils and the chest, while the waves that rose up silently washed over the riverbank and eventually submerged the entire island.
This fragrance can only be smelled once in a lifetime.
Lu Xiaofeng's eyes flickered, and he turned around, letting the fragrant breeze waft onto his face.
It was still that hillside, still that girl with rosy cheeks, but they were now very close.
Lu Xiaofeng suddenly realized how wonderful rouge was. The most lustrous and moisturizing thing was freshly peeled lychee flesh, which was white and glistening with moisture. But if it only had this bit of translucency, how could it compare to the emerald green and flowing cinnabar?
A cup of warm wine, adorned with a peach blossom petal—only then can one truly be considered to have entered the blissful, decadent paradise of pleasure.
He gazed at her, and in that instant, he felt as if he had been cast onto a submerged, nameless island. His heart sailed on the scent, while the ebb and flow of the waves were entirely in the hands of this girl.
At this moment, the first wave has already been stirred up.
Because her hand and her gaze were already on his face, with a tender, gentle touch.
Lu Xiaofeng was naturally a very handsome man. He had thick eyebrows and deep, bright eyes that made people feel warm and moved.
But looking into the room, one could see a few broken pieces of floating ice.
But his eyelashes were so long that they seemed to melt in the blink of an eye.
It's obvious that many women have fallen into this trap, only to find it difficult to get out of it afterward.
He wasn't very old, but he had two neatly trimmed mustaches on his lips, so neat they looked like eyebrows.
His mustache has caused him countless troubles, and many people want to shave it off.
But the girl's fingertips lingered and caressed the object repeatedly, as if she had encountered a toy she loved dearly.
He couldn't help but ask, "Don't you think it's weird?"
Yan Jin smiled, lightly tapping his fingertips on the 'two eyebrows', and said in a coquettish tone, "I just think they're cute."
As she touched it, she suddenly stood on tiptoe, and the fragrance wafted from the corner of his lips, warm and melting, as if it were steaming out some sweet mist, making it impossible for him to escape.
Lu Xiaofeng was already very thirsty, and said in a hoarse voice, "If we keep touching like this, it might be very dangerous."
He felt as if the thick syrup had coated his throat, making him so thirsty that it was almost painful.
There's no way around it, he really is the most dangerous and worst kind of man.
Yan Jin smiled, looking into those deep, affectionate eyes so close to hers, and feigned ignorance, asking, "Are you the most dangerous one, or is the night the most dangerous one, or... am I the most dangerous one?"
“Of course I’m dangerous. Don’t you know that with your beauty, every man would want to eat you?” Lu Xiaofeng’s Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, his breathing became heavy, and he probed subtly.
Food and sex are human nature, and he happens to be the most rogue and scoundrel-like type, so of course he was already very hungry.
His stomach was burning with hunger.
Yan Jin's fox-like eyes have been cultivated for over two hundred years; how could she not know that she had already conquered his stomach?
But this is certainly not enough; it is far from enough.
"Then why don't you come and have a cup of hot tea with me first? Let's see if you have the ability to eat me?" she said, slowly backing away and disappearing into the deep forest.
At this moment, she was more like a seductive fox spirit from a strange tale in the deep mountains, just waiting to devour the mortals who had strayed into this place and been bewitched by her.
Fairies are naturally more greedy; they want not only his essence and blood, but also his soul.
Lu Xiaofeng was certain that there had never been such a small building in this mountain.
But it appeared out of nowhere, like a mirage.
He walked step by step into the Spider Cave, his heart pounding with fear, trembling, and excitement.
Clearly, it's unlikely he'll be able to leave again.
The courtyard of the small building was filled with flowers of all kinds, far more than the Hundred Flowers Garden of the Flower-Filled Building, as if spring from all over the world had been brought here.
However, unlike Hua Man Lou, Yan Jin is a flower picker, who picks all the most beautiful flowers in the world and infuses their fragrance into spices. That's why these spices, which have been dried, extracted, and polished over the years, can produce such a powdery mist, sweet and enchanting, capable of captivating everyone.
As Lu Xiaofeng watched the smoke rising from the incense burner, his heart, like the dried flowers in the courtyard, was lifted high into the air, accompanied by a feeling of itch, heat, and restlessness.
This small building was naturally decorated in every way.
He found a chair and sat down, then suddenly said with a stern face, "You don't even know my name, yet you dare to bring me here for tea?"
Yan Jin readily agreed and asked, "So, what's your name?"
Lu Xiaofeng sighed and said, "My name is Lu Xiaofeng. Lu Xiaofeng with four eyebrows."
Yan Jin rested her chin on her hand and looked at him, blinking slightly as her gaze fell on his extra two eyebrows. "So you're a cute little phoenix."
Lu Xiaofeng stammered, "It seems that men really can't do business with women."
Yan Jin understood his implied meaning perfectly, and she couldn't help but laugh, "Yan Jin, my name is Yan Jin."
He was still dissatisfied, letting out a long sigh, looking utterly dejected. He looked even more like a pathetic dog now than he did this morning.
Yan Jin was naturally drawn in, and she asked in a low voice, "Why are you sighing?"
Lu Xiaofeng said, "Since you're not curious about me, of course I have to sigh."
He was already itching with curiosity, how could she possibly handle it with ease?
Yan Jin chuckled softly, "Then you must be very curious about me."
Curiosity naturally leads to a touch of toxicity.
Lu Xiaofeng didn't want to be at a disadvantage, but unfortunately, he was too curious to resist.
He could only smile wryly and say, "That's right. I've always been a very curious person, and right now I'm incredibly curious."
"Of course, you have to solve the riddle yourself. The process of solving a riddle is often more enticing than the answer itself, isn't it?"
Her voice was sweet and cloying, yet her tone was ethereal, as if she wanted to lead you to imagine some tender and poignant stories.
Unfortunately, the first person standing in front of her was a customer.
And he was a really hungry jerk of a diner.
Lu Xiaofeng stood up and moved closer to her, suppressing the faint sweet fragrance wafting to his nose, and slowly said, "Very good. It's a pity that I not only want to solve your mystery, but also want to undress you."
His gaze was already quite aggressive, as if he wanted to peel it off completely through the thin lychee shell to see if the flesh inside was also pink in every part.
Hearing his unsteady breathing, Yan Jin placed her hand on his chest and said meaningfully, "Then we'll see if you can win my favor."
She deliberately tormented him like this.
Lu Xiaofeng took a deep breath and said, "It seems I need to chew two more pounds of crushed sugar to make my mouth even sweeter."
Yan Jin couldn't help but laugh out loud, handing him the flower tea in her hand and scolding, "I think your mouth is not only sweet, but also very oily."
Her fingertips lightly brushed against his palm, touching and then leaving, but the itch seeped into his bones through his skin.
The tea in the cup was tilted slightly towards him, and the rippling water revealed a hint of pink, which was obviously flower tea.
Lu Xiaofeng took the cup of tea, his gaze fixed on her, and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Isn't a beauty better paired with fine wine?"
His dog has the keenest nose; it had already smelled the aroma of the wine.
Indulging in pleasure should be limited to seven-tenths fullness and three-tenths drunkenness; fine wine, delicious food, and beautiful women are all indispensable.
He suffered a lot in his youth, so naturally he wanted to enjoy himself to the fullest in his later years.
“Indeed, I do have the finest wine here. Unfortunately, it’s too strong, and I won’t touch a drop,” Yan Jin said softly, taking a sip of her flower tea.
How can someone who has never tasted tea know its aroma?
But it didn't matter; she told him he could never drink any other wine again.
“You are not allowed to drink my wine alone. If you want to taste my rare wine…” She paused, then suddenly covered her mouth and laughed.
"I need to send a little phoenix to run errands and buy me a jar of wine."
Her words were crisp and sweet, like a perfectly pickled sweet radish, perfect for drinking with alcohol.
His heart felt as if it had drunk a sip of sweet wine, and in his dizziness, he hesitated and asked, "Now?"
Yan Jin nodded, her eyes crinkling as she said, "Of course, now, otherwise wouldn't we be wasting this bright moon?"
Lu Xiaofeng was certainly craving this rare and exquisite wine, but he was even hungrier.
But he also knew that one should not be too hasty with a beautiful woman. If a man is too eager for lust, even the most handsome man will lose his charm.
He could only smile wryly and say, "It seems that one must be careful when talking to a beautiful woman. I regret it now. If I had known I would have to leave so soon, I would have kept quiet."
Yan Jin smiled even more sweetly, knowingly asking, "Regret what?"
Lu Xiaofeng said, "They say a moment of passion is worth a thousand pieces of gold. With a woman as beautiful as you, of course I wouldn't trade you for ten thousand pieces of gold. Even the most fragrant and mellow wine can be set aside."
With such beauty before you, wouldn't it be foolish to just keep drinking?
As Yan Jin's gaze shifted, her fox-like eyes became even more alluring with their upward tilt.
Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she casually picked out a pearl from the overflowing jewelry box, gently tossing it to him.
This will be considered the cost of the wine.
"How about this? You drink a cup of my Prajna wine, and I'll let you take off one of your clothes." She carefully applied the spices to the bait, tilted her head, and said coquettishly.
"Do you still want to buy alcohol now?"
They were so close that the beauty of her bones and the fragrance of her flesh resonated before his eyes.
As the music played, his rapid breathing grew louder and louder. Before Lu Xiaofeng had even tasted the strong liquor, his blood was already churning and his back was soaked with sweat.
He said in a hoarse voice, "Of course I want to, I want to die for it."
She lowered her head as if embarrassed and said, "But if I drink more than you, then I will punish you."
He was taken aback and asked blankly, "Punishment?"
Yan Jin's eyes twinkled, and she said reproachfully, "There must be a reward and a punishment, otherwise, wouldn't it be too bland and tasteless if I were to have my clothes undressed for nothing?"
Lu Xiaofeng's heart burned, and he gripped the mermaid pearl tightly.
He was certainly not afraid of punishment, because he was a person who loved gambling and drinking.
As clever as Lu Xiaofeng was, he knew that all he needed to do was buy the strongest liquor.
There are very few people who can drink as much as him, let alone a beautiful young girl who seems to have a low alcohol tolerance.
Before the crimson gamble even began, he already had victory in his grasp.
How can light tea compare to strong liquor?
He wanted her to indulge in it with him.
