Hua Manlou is happy to help others, but rarely invites people to drink unless the person is his friend.
Isn’t he now treating Li Zhichang as a friend?
There are always some people in this world who can make you a friend by just a word, a voice, or an unintentional detail. But if you think that such people will have many friends, it would be a big mistake. Sometimes this kind of people may not meet a friend in their entire lives.
Hua Manlou is lucky. He is indeed such a person, but although he doesn’t have many friends, there are three or five, and now there is one more.
Huamanlou’s surname is ‘Hua’, so Li Zhichang asked Li Zhichang to drink Huadiao wine. Huadiao wine has three years of mortality, five years of mortality, eight years of mortality, ten years of mortality, and even decades of mortality. Huamanlou invited Li Zhichang to drink Huadiao wine with the oldest mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality of mortality, even if the emperor wants to drink it, it will not be possible.
The cup of Huadiao wine in front of Li Zhichang was already orange-yellow and clear, and the fragrance of the dissipated wine was fragrant. He took a sip and the wine tasted sweet and mellow. Of course, the cup of wine he drank was even more gold than the cup of Huadiao wine. If he met someone who was good at drinking, he would not be willing to drink it. He would only offer this jar of wine respectfully and worship it every day. If he was greedy, he would smell it at most.
After drinking, Li Zhichang chanted softly:
"The peaches are young and bright,
If your son returns home, he is suitable for his family.
The peach is beautiful, the
The son is here to return. It is suitable for his family.
The peaches are young and their leaves are lush,
The son is here to return. It is suitable for his family."
The poems Li Zhichang recited are from the Zhounan chapter of the "Book of Songs" - a Tao Yao, which commemorates the "premature death of flowers".
Then he sighed softly: "'Flowering''Flowering''.'Flowering''. Since you love flowers so much, of course you should know that the more beautiful the flowers bloom, the earlier they fade. Just like this life, the stronger it is, the faster it dissipates, and the sunset is infinitely better. It is always close to dusk!"
If it is ordinary people, they will think that people like Li Zhichang are very hateful. They drink other people's precious aged wine and deliberately damage their owners.
Hua Manlou was also dressed like snow. The evening breeze blew his clothes, making him look more graceful. He said, "Even if I do this, I like it. Since I can be happy now, why should I think about those sad things?"
The moon in front of the window is different because of the plum blossoms.
Li Zhichang said: "I didn't expect you to see so clearly, but you are blind."
Hua Manlou didn't care at all and smiled. What a pure smile,
Li Zhichang continued: "Hey, I owe you a great favor after drinking such a good wine. Then how about I help you see the light again?"
Hua Manlou's ever-relaxed smile changed. Although he lived on a small building full of flowers and sunshine, he didn't know that there were not only the flowers and sunshine he loved, but also endless darkness, but also the darkness that never fades away. As Li Zhichang said, flowers will wither soon, but the darkness in his eyes will never fade away.
Everyone knows that he is optimistic and strong, but no one knows how much pain he has suffered because of this optimism and strongness.
Hua Manlou suddenly felt very grateful to Li Zhichang. He came here maybe just to cure his eyes. His eyes had long been broken. He could not find a famous doctor with his family background. But no one could cure his eyes. Li Zhichang said that he could cure it, and he believed it.
Because his martial arts may not be the best in the world. But his spiritual sense is unparalleled. He can feel the perfect aura of Li Zhichang's body. This feeling has only been felt by a few people in his life. Those few people are one of the six people who can truly reach the peak of their martial arts today, and their internal and external skills have reached the realm of transformation.
Such a person is indeed capable of doing things that others cannot do, but can Li Zhichang really cure his eyes?
Li Zhichang looked at his eyes and said, "Your eyes are broken. You can only replace them with a pair of living eyes. With my internal strength, I can help you practice the meridians in your eyes so that you can see the light again."
Hua Manlou sighed deeply: "So that's the case. Such medical skills are indeed magical. If you say so, there is a great possibility of curing me, but I don't want to receive treatment." No one understands the pain of a blind man better than him, so he would rather suffer alone than have another blind man in this world.
Li Zhichang said: "Yes, if you agree, you will not be Hua Manlou. What a pity!"
Hua Manlou was not disappointed, nor was he frustrated. Instead, he nodded to Li Zhichang and smiled: "Actually, it's not bad to be a blind man. Although I can't see it, I can still hear it, feel it, and sometimes even enjoy more fun than others. Have you ever heard the sound of snowflakes falling on the roof? Can you feel the wonderful vitality of the buds slowly blooming in the spring breeze? Do you know that the autumn wind often brings the fragrance of wood leaves coming from distant mountains?"
Li Zhichang chuckled and said, "I know you can't smell the fragrance of koh leaves now, but you can definitely smell the fragrance of women." Li Zhichang smelled a fragrance of women, which was a virgin body fragrance. He could smell it, and Hua Manlou could naturally smell it even more.
Li Zhichang picked up the Huadiao wine that had not finished drinking on the table and jumped down from the other side. His words faintly came into his ears from the sound of the wind. "I owe you a jar of priceless Huadiao wine, I will repay you. Enjoy this intentional encounter." Hua Manlou heard Li Zhichang's tone full of teasing. How is it intentional to do it this time?
Soon he heard a burst of rapid footsteps sounding on the stairs.
A young girl of seventeen or eighteen hurriedly ran upstairs, looking very panicked and breathing very quickly.
She was not too beautiful, but her bright big eyes were very flexible and intelligent. Unfortunately, she now had an indescribable panic and fear in her eyes. Hua Manlou turned around and faced her.
He didn't recognize the girl, but his attitude was still very gentle and seemed very concerned: "Miss, something happened?"
Just like all the bad stories, the beautiful girl is chased by the evil ones. Just like the prince in the story, the powerful Hua Manlou helped the girl drive away the evil ones.
The girl thanked him and said her name - Shangguan Feiyan, Shangguan Feiyan from Jiangnan.
There is Zhao Feiyan in front and Shangguan Feiyan behind. Is every woman named Feiyan so beautiful? But Hua Manlou can't see it. Hua Manlou suddenly has regrets, that is, is the girl in front of him really so beautiful and charming, but he can't see it. (To be continued)
