【231】Wine
I didn't expect that this drunk man in Luotuo was actually a demon dragon.
The eldest disciple of Panlong Ancestor and the most outstanding disciple of the Xianlong Cave lineage... today, he has fallen to such a state.
In an instant, the past between Ye Qingxuan and the Xianlong Cave when he first entered the world was like a replayed old movie, and shots appeared in his mind one by one.
The heroic Mo Yeli, the loyal and rough elder Muzhe, the handsome and witty Jiang Shuihan, the opponent's demon dragon, the night dragon, and the terrifying Panlong ancestor, and the first time they met, Xue Gongwang, his disciple Yan Jingshu and Xue Wengong who opposed him everywhere...
These familiar faces, either have passed away or have not been masked for a long time, are coming like a tide today, making Ye Qingxuan's heart thrill.
After a while of amazement, Ye Qingxuan floated the Buddha and floated out of the water. He took a deep breath and sighed: "I haven't seen you for a long time... Why do you..."
Ye Qingxuan was surprised. In my memory, Panlong Ancestor was jealous of this outstanding disciple who surpassed him, so he found an excuse to throw him into the water prison and abused him day and night. Later, he fought with Xianlong Cave several times and accidentally saved his life.
Logically speaking, even after being rescued, even if the Demon Dragon no longer ventured into the world, his skills would never fall to this point. Originally, Ye Qingxuan had no news about him for a long time, and he thought he was free and happy. Unexpectedly, he was surprised to see his down-and-out situation on a street in Xiangyang Prefecture.
The demon dragon took a deep breath, sighed, lifted up his worn-out robe, revealing a huge scar on his abdomen, and said, "Although a certain family was rescued, the Qihai of Dantian was destroyed by the old thief Panlong. He saved his life under the treatment of Doctor Duan. Unfortunately, his skills gradually dissipated, and he had already dispersed a few years ago and became a useless person. The road of Jianghu has nothing to do with me anymore."
The core of the scar was a fist mark, and countless lightning-shaped scars spread around it. Not only was it terrifying, but Ye Qingxuan's eyes could see at a glance that his dantian Qi sea had long collapsed and could not retain a trace of Qi. Even if an outsider injected Qi into Qi, it would gradually overflow and eventually dissipate invisible.
Ye Qingxuan couldn't bear it in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh and said slowly: "Since Brother Demon Dragon has encountered this, why don't you explain to me... Although you and I had some conflicts at the beginning, but time has changed, and Ye and his brothers will never sit idly by."
The Demon Dragon smiled indifferently and said, "Although the Demon Dragon is a useless person, he is willing to fall into depravity, he is unwilling to live under others' compassion. In this life, I have mistakenly become a master and blamed myself. Even if you brothers are not enemies, they are definitely not friends. Let me whisper to you. Sorry, I am not Qu Liyuan, and I have not grown such a dirty bone on my body."
Qu Liyuan, whose real name is Li Yuanzi, is a proud disciple of Li Wei, a "Cangshan Rhino" in Xianlong Cave. He was later sent to Motianling as a liaison officer for the alliance between Xianlong Cave and Motianling. He was subdued by Ye Qingxuan, who returned from the holy land, and rebelled out of the Xianlong Cave.
Now Qu Liyuan is under Jiang Shuihan, acting as a first-rank guard in the inner court.
Seeing that the demon dragon still looked rebellious, Ye Qingxuan didn't know how to speak for a moment.
The demon dragon smiled slightly and said calmly: "I have already walked enough in the Jianghu Road. Since God has given me such an ending, I will live for one day. Ye Qingxuan, I have received your favor today. If you still respect me, I will not be allowed to pity me. Goodbye!"
As soon as the words came to an end, the demon dragon turned around and left stubbornly.
Ye Qingxuan stared at him for a moment, finally sighed secretly and said aloud: "I haven't seen you for a long time... How about having a drink together?"
The demon dragon stood stiffly. After a while, he turned around and smiled, saying, "One cup is too little. I want one jar, no... ten jars."
"Okay." Ye Qingxuan replied firmly.
The demon dragon smiled and walked forward with a high eye. "I know there is an old tavern in Xiangyang Mansion that tastes good. I have been greedy for a long time, and the store owner refused to give me a drop. Today I want to drink all his aged wine so that he will never greed for me again. Hahaha..."
The demon dragon was so thin that it was only a thick skeleton left, still as straight as it was.
************
Ye Qingxuan was also a drinker here at this old restaurant on the bank of the river back then.
Three hours passed, and the store owner was already lying on the table and slept soundly, while the magic dragon's eyes were bright and they were still filled with water.
After twenty jars of aged wine, they really drank all the good wine from this old store.
For a person who is obsessed with martial arts, the destruction of his dantian is like the end of his life.
It can be seen that the Demon Dragon was unwilling to accept it, but fate made him a big joke, which made him extremely unwilling to die and not willing to live.
In this world, some people should not die well, some people should not live well, and most people struggle between not having to die well and not having to live well.
The magic dragon's eyes are filled with sadness, which is also a struggle.
Bang!
An empty jar hit the ground and broke into countless pieces. The magic dragon smeared the wine stains on the corner of his mouth and shouted: "Shopkeeper, let's have three more jars of good wine."
The shop owner, who was sleeping in a daze, jumped up and rushed back to the shop, brought three jars of fine wine, and said with a bitter look on his face: "Two uncles, these are really the last three jars of aged wine in the shop. If you want to drink it again, your daughter, who is only eighteen years old, will be popular."
"Noisy, do you think I don't have any money for wine?" The demon dragon slapped the table and was about to get angry.
At this time, he was already drunk and his tongue began to be knotted when he spoke.
The store owner was about to explain, but Ye Qingxuan shook his eyes and waved his hand to let him retreat.
"Don't be too difficult for the store..." Ye Qingxuan said lightly: "The daughter of this family is also very good."
The demon dragon laughed and slapped the mouth of the wine jar, drank half of the jar in one breath, sighed and said in a deep voice: "Oh, the tiger falls into the sun, retribution, retribution... I originally wanted to use these fine wines to drink myself to death to avoid embarrassment, but I didn't expect that I would still be so good if I lose my martial arts skills, hahaha..."
After throwing a peanut into the mouth, the demon dragon's drunken eyes were sparse, looking at Ye Qingxuan, and smiled and said, "The cycle of reincarnation in the way of heaven, hehe, if it were a few years ago, how could you expect that one day you would sit together and drink?"
Ye Qingxuan smiled and said, "This is the case in life. Who said that the enemy of that year would not be friends?"
The demon dragon shook his head and said, "Ye Qingxuan, you said it wrong."
"Oh? Am I wrong? Where is the mistake?" Ye Qingxuan also felt a little drunk.
The demon dragon pointed to the night sky where the bright moon was hanging high and smiled: "Our destiny is like two floating clouds in the night sky. Sometimes it may seem overlapping, but they are of different heights, and in fact they will never meet."
