Chapter 175 Go all the way, Huangquan Ferry(1/2)
At this moment, the blood moon rises into the sky.
It's time for the old tavern to close.
However, Liang Du and Fang Xiu had no intention of leaving at all.
The rule of the old tavern is that it does not close until the guests leave.
After all, what happened to Lao Erliang back then could not happen again in the old tavern.
Just when shopkeeper Chen didn't understand the meaning of Liang Du's words, Xiao Liu suddenly said in surprise.
"Uncle Erliang, are you here?"
At this moment, in the dark night, a figure stood alone at the door. Who could it be if it wasn't Chen Erliang?
Shopkeeper Chen quickly stood up when he heard the waiter Xiaoliu's voice.
He looked outside and saw that standing outside the door was the second son he had been thinking about.
"Old man, you are finally here. Since last time, you have not been seen for another month."
The second child didn't say anything, but shopkeeper Chen directly stretched out his hand to hold him.
So cold.
But shopkeeper Chen didn't care.
After all, it's winter. Isn't it cold these twenty miles from Laogou Ferry to here?
"Xiao Liu, go and get two taels of wine."
At this time, shopkeeper Chen couldn't care less about Liang Du and Fang Xiu for the time being, and took care of the second two first.
After all, he has been really worried about Lao Erliang recently.
But it is really rare for the two of them to come to the old tavern at this time tonight.
"Old man, you really want us to die."
But shopkeeper Chen was so enthusiastic, but the second child and the other two remained silent.
This made the shopkeeper a little strange.
At this time, Liang Du suddenly spoke.
"There is a difference between yin and yang. Even if you are nostalgic for me, you should leave by yourself. Otherwise, no matter what you do, it will be a tragedy.
Moreover, this is not something you can control. These are rules, the rules of heaven and earth. You are the most observant of rules in your life, so you should understand these, right?"
Shopkeeper Chen couldn't help but frown when he heard this. What did the scholar mean by this?
But after hearing these words, the second child's whole body trembled slightly, as if he was making a difficult decision.
It was an eye-opener for Fang Xiu today. After all, he was very talented, but his experience was a little lacking after all.
Not to mention him, even Liang Du was moved by the story of the old tavern, and it was not worthwhile for him to come here in person.
It can only be said that it is fortunate that the world stage has been upgraded at this time, otherwise the obsession of this second child might have turned him into a vicious spirit.
However, does this mean that the wandering souls in the future can temporarily stay in the human world?
If this is the case, the probability of the formation of evil spirits will be greatly increased.
good.
Now Lao Erliang is not a human being at all, but a wandering spirit occupying his body.
The reason why Liang Du was so polite at this time was because Erliang was not a vicious spirit yet, but the wandering spirit was too obsessed with it.
He never imagined that this old tavern would be Lao Erliang's last obsession.
Xiaoliu had already prepared the wine at this time and brought it over with a happy look on his face.
Seeing the second two sitting in their seats, he said directly: "Uncle, I have just boiled the wine. Drink it in this winter and your whole body will feel refreshed."
Liang Du looked at the two men opposite him, ready to take action at any time.
In his eyes, the two men at this moment had unstable auras, and if one of them was not good enough, they would turn into evil spirits.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Lao Erliang's body to finally stabilize, and his breath also stabilized.
Sure enough, even after they died, these two children still followed the rules at night.
But according to the rules, today is also considered the first seven days of the second and the second?
Thinking of this, Liang Du couldn't help but send a message to Fang Xiu.
Fang Xiu nodded after hearing this.
He actually didn't have much hostility towards Lao Erliang, maybe because of the story shopkeeper Chen told him.
Fang Xiu suddenly raised his wine glass at this time.
"Old sir, it is fate that I can see you today.
Although I didn’t know you during your lifetime, it is fate that I can meet you after your death.”
After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.
Shopkeeper Chen and Xiaoliu were stunned for a moment when they heard this.
When they reacted, they found that the second brother and Fang Xiu were also raising their glasses, facing each other across the table, toasting each other with a glass of wine.
Shopkeeper Chen was a little scared at first, after all, Fang Xiu said, these two are dead people.
Isn't it terrifying that the dead can come to the old tavern on their own just like the living?
However, when the second brother and Fang Xiu toasted each other across the table, he was not afraid of anything anymore.
At this time, he also picked up his wine glass and clinked it with Lao Er.
Over the years, he had heard many ghost legends, but he never thought that he could be the protagonist for once.
And from what Fang Xiu meant, today turned out to be the first day of the second couple's life. He didn't go home, but came to his place. This shows how deep this friendship is.
"Old man, I didn't expect you to come to my place for the first time.
How can you be so supportive of our old tavern in this world?
You said before that you were addicted to alcohol and hooked up to this old tavern.
I'm afraid I miss our old tavern and our fireworks.
You worked hard begging for food in Laodukou, but you never missed a penny of our wine money. This is the virtue of wine.
Someone added white water to your wine flask, but you tasted it but remained calm. This is a sign of forbearance.
We others can't stand it. We made the person who teased you so embarrassed that you still didn't say a word.
Why all the tavern drinkers are fighting for you is because of your state of conduct.
I thought that in these 30 years of running the tavern, I had met all kinds of people, and they were quite high-level people.
But now that I think about it, compared to you, we are still far behind, and we must continue to maintain it."
At this time, Xiao Liu's eyes were already red. He came up at this time and toasted a glass of wine to Lao Erliang.
"Drinking is like a leopard's courage, sobering up is like a rabbit's courage. Talk under the influence of wine and act cautiously.
I never eat or drink for free, for fear of being looked down upon by others. When I drink, I don’t talk nonsense and it won’t be a problem. If I can bear it, stay away.”
Shopkeeper Chen couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this.
"Liuzi, what are you talking about?"
Xiao Liu shook his head.
"No, shopkeeper, I miss my dad. He drinks like a kid."
At this time, Lao Erliang's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
His eyes were dull, and he raised his head to look at Xiao Liu. Xiao Liu's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't stop crying.
From today on, just like his father, he will never see his second child again.
Shopkeeper Chen was speechless at this time and drank the wine.
Liang Du and Liang Du didn't even speak at this time.
All this sadness is in Lao Erliang's wine, and Lao Erliang can be considered a drinker.
I have never had any trouble with drinking. I can only know the warmth and coldness by tasting wine.
The second two sat next to each other and still didn't speak.
Because when you speak, something bad happens.
If a breath of Yin energy comes out of his mouth, he will transform into a corpse.
Even so, he still remembered to abide by the rules after his death. He was a very particular person.
At this moment, the second brother finished his two glasses of wine. He stood up, glanced at the old tavern, and walked out without saying hello.
There were a few more copper coins on the table.
