Li Xiu saw the wine bottle the woman was talking about. It was a black wine bottle with a label attached to the outside. The label was white with black paintings on it and a black skull on it.

As for those words, Li Xiu didn't recognize any of them, but looking at the black skull icon, he knew that this thing was probably not a good thing.

"What if I don't drink?" Li Xiu asked.

"It's okay if you don't drink. Then stay here as a bartender until the next person willing to replace you as a bartender comes along." The woman said slowly.

Li Xiu knew that of course he couldn't stay and be a bartender. Who knew when this place would be visited again? It could be ten or eight years. He couldn't wait ten or eight years.

Summon the most powerful Jedi Knight now, and let the Jedi Knight strike the door with a bloody slash.

The bloody crescent sword light struck the door, and there was only a clang sound. The sword light shattered, but there was not even a trace on the door.

I summoned several other companion pets and tried my best, but still couldn't open the door.

The woman allowed Li Xiu to torture her without coming down from the second floor or making a sound to stop her.

Li Xiu was very suspicious that the woman might be trapped on the second floor and unable to get down at all.

But even if the woman can't get out, he can't get out either. Sooner or later he will still be trapped and die here.

Li Xiu gave up the idea of ​​opening the door, went to the wine cabinet, and took down the bottle of wine the woman was talking about.

"What's the name of this wine?" Li Xiu asked.

"Black Death." The woman replied calmly.

"Black Death, listen to the name. If you drink this wine, your life will be taken away by Death, right?" Li Xiu said.

"You broke in by yourself, drank my blood rose, and wanted to leave without paying a price. It shouldn't be justified, right?" the woman said.

"That makes sense. It's indeed my fault." Li Xiu nodded and said.

"You are quite sensible, so just drink." The woman said with a smile.

Li Xiu put the bottle back into the wine cabinet, then picked up another bottle of wine and said, "With so much wine, wouldn't it be a pity if they were all broken?"

The woman laughed, her laughter was slightly hoarse, but it had an indescribable charm: "Do you want to threaten me with these wines? That's just right. If you can smash them all, then I have to thank you.

is you."

Snapped!

Li Xiu directly smashed the wine in his hand against the opposite wall. He smashed the bottle and the liquid inside splashed out.

But the next second, the smashed bottle and wine automatically coalesced together, restored their original appearance, and returned to the wine cabinet.

Li Xiu was a little surprised, so he took a few more bottles of wine and threw them out, but the result was the same. No matter how he threw them, the wine would return to its original position on the shelf in the blink of an eye.

"This stone house is really evil!" Li Xiu had no choice but to stop.

"Why don't you smash it?" the woman asked mockingly.

"Can we discuss, besides drinking, is there any other way to express my apology for barging into your home?" Li Xiu asked.

"You don't need to apologize, this is not my home either," the woman said.

"Not your home?" Li Xiu was startled.

"You don't have to be too happy. This is not my home, and I naturally have no power to let you leave. Once you enter here, you have to drink a bottle of wine before you can leave. It doesn't matter who comes." The woman said calmly.

"So, I have to drink this bottle of wine?" Li Xiu sighed.

"You can also stop drinking and stay here as a bartender. It would be great if you can have more company and have someone to chat with me." The woman smiled.

"Then I'd better drink a bar. Can I not drink the Black Death and choose a bottle by myself?" Li Xiu remembered that the demon spirit just chose a bottle by himself.

"Okay." The woman answered simply.

Li Xiu looked at the wine on the wine cabinet. The wine cabinet occupied the entire wall and had six floors in total. There were hundreds of bottles of wine on each floor, and it was estimated that the total number was in the thousands.

Among the thousands of bottles of wine, none of them seemed to be the same. Li Xiu didn't recognize the characters on them, so it was naturally impossible to tell which one would not kill someone if he drank it.

Li Xiu remembered that the blood rose that the demon spirit took just now was taken out from the fourth floor of the cabinet. He looked at the fourth floor. Next to the place where the blood rose was originally placed, the labels on the bottles of wine were all the same as the blood rose.

completely different.

Theoretically speaking, it is possible to reduce some risks by taking the wine next to the Blood Rose.

However, Li Xiu did not make a choice. He thought for a while, starting from the first bottle of wine on the first floor, and took down each bottle of wine to observe carefully.

He wanted to try and see if he could find some pattern, so maybe he wouldn't have to try his luck.

Although Li Xiu couldn't understand those words, it was not completely impossible to decipher them.

As he read, he wrote down the text symbols and icons on each bottle. If the same text symbols and icons appeared on different bottles' labels, they could be compared and screened.

The woman told him that the previous bottle was called Black Death, and the corresponding words on the black skull were probably Black Death.

However, this kind of writing is very weird. There are four characters for Black Death, but there are only two characters.

One symbol directly represents black, and one symbol represents death.

Li Xiu has seen these two symbols several times on other wine bottles. By comparing them with the icons on the labels, he can deduce a lot of things.

For example, if the icon on the bottle is a red flower, there is a high probability that the name of this bottle of wine is related to flowers. If you find other wine bottles with flower icons, you can infer some text information.

After Li Xiu's research, the two symbols representing the black god of death are not the normal reading and writing mode from left to right. The symbol on the left represents the god of death, and the symbol on the right represents black.

Li Xiu kept comparing and deducing, and he could roughly deduce some of the names of the wines. Although it was impossible to get them all right, it was not too different. It was not too different from reading pictures and reading, and it was not a complicated matter.

Unfortunately, there are only names on the bottles of wine, and the number of characters is limited. Li Xiu still can't understand most of the wine names. Only some symbols that appear more frequently can Li Xiu decipher the names of the wines.

"Gentle Lover, this name sounds gentler, so it shouldn't be too poisonous." Li Xiu looked at all the wines, a total of one thousand and thirty-four bottles, and took out a bottle from the fourth floor.

This is a transparent crystal bottle filled with pink liquid. It doesn't look like wine, but more like sparkling water.

"If I were you, I wouldn't choose any bottle of Gentle Lover." The woman's voice came again.

"Why?" Li Xiu asked.

"Tenderness is like a knife, and a lover is like a sword. After drinking such wine, can you still walk out?" the woman said with a smile.

"That's right." Li Xiu listened to the advice and put his gentle lover back.

"You are very obedient, aren't you afraid that I will lie to you?" The woman was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Li Xiu would listen to her suggestion so simply.

"There is an old saying in my hometown, listen to others' advice and eat enough." Li Xiu continued to select wine on the wine cabinet, took another bottle of wine with the icon of a black priest, and continued: "What do you think of this bottle of wine?

Sample?"

"Black Bishop, if you want to see God as soon as possible, there is nothing wrong with choosing him." The woman enjoyed it and enjoyed the feeling of hitting Li Xiu.

"Forget it, I think he doesn't want to see me." Li Xiu put the bottle back again.

Li Xiu selected many bottles of wine, but the woman rejected them all. However, from the names the woman said, Li Xiu obtained a lot of text information, allowing him to guess the names of more wines.

The reason why Li Xiu listened to the advice was actually to get more information, and he didn't really listen to the woman's advice.

The wines he selected also had a purpose and got a lot of keywords.

The woman thought she was attacking Li Xiu, but Li Xiu already had a general framework for these words.

"It's really hard to be illiterate." Li Xiu sighed in his heart. He had gotten the information he wanted.

Li Xiu basically knew what the words on the bottle of wine meant.

Then he put down the bottle of wine, came to the bookshelf, and began to read the names of the books.

Using his current writing foundation, Li Xiu found some books whose names he could understand. He reached out and took one of them down, flipping through it and studying it carefully.

Although there are many characters and symbols that I don’t recognize, you can get more information by starting with some of the characters you know and then making inferences based on the connections.

"What are you pretending to read there? Can you still understand the magic text?" The woman mocked: "If you could really understand the magic text, you wouldn't have walked in here."

"Why?" Li Xiu asked puzzledly.

"You don't even recognize the message "Keep strangers out" written outside the door. You're still pretending to read some book, and you're still going to drink in a bar." The woman teased.

Li Xiu recalled that there were indeed two symbols engraved next to the door. It turned out to mean this, and the amount of knowledge increased again.

"How do you know I don't know it? I just didn't pay attention when I came in." Li Xiu closed the book in his hand and said, "Isn't this book called Black Rose? I can still understand it."

The woman giggled: "Cute little illiterate, do you think that because there is a black rose on the cover, the book is called Black Rose? This is not about reading through pictures. You are too naive and cute, right?

The name of the book is "The Withering Flower of Interpretation of Languages"."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't see clearly." Li Xiu put the book back on the bookshelf and picked up another one. This time he sat directly on the sofa and read page by page.

Li Xiu slowly flipped through the pages without saying anything. After a while, the woman couldn't bear it any longer and said again: "Since you like drinking and reading, why not stay here as a bartender and drink as much as you want?"

What do you think?"

"I am alone. If I stay here without food or water, I am afraid I will starve to death in a few days." Li Xiu said casually, still looking at the book in his hand.

"When you become a bartender, you won't need those things." The woman said.

"You mean, after I become a bartender, I am no longer a human being, right?" Li Xiu said without raising his head.

"Absolutely." The woman continued: "What's so good about being a human being? You are weak and fragile, and your life is so short. When you become a bartender, you will have an immortal body. I don't know how many times better than being a human being."

"It sounds good, but that's not what this book says." Li Xiu said seriously.

"Little cutie, are you trying to laugh me to death? That book is called "Dead Sunday" and it tells a sad love story. If you can read about the bartender from it, then you are really a genius.
To be continued...
