There's a Madman Sharpening His Knife at Night

Outside the restaurant, large snowflakes flew lazily around the newly lit red lanterns, falling on the roof, horseback, shoulders, and hats, one after another.

The restaurant was buzzing with people, and every table, regardless of the abundance of dishes, must have a small red stove for scalding wine. The charcoal fire in the brazier was burning red, and it was as warm as spring.

When Lu Hu turned back to see the person, the young man happened to look towards him. The two looked at each other and saw a smile on the young man's face.

"Brother, I didn't expect to meet again! What a coincidence!"

With that said, the young man came to Lu Hu's table, followed by the waiter.

"You two know each other? That's great! Then you two can share a table?"

After all, the waiter in the shop was still responsible for welcoming people and delivering them, and he was very good at observing people's emotions. Although the young man shouted warmly, he could tell by looking at Lu Hu's expression that the two of them were not familiar with each other.

So I looked at Lu Hu and handed him a sentence.

Lu Hu carefully looked up and down at this young man. He was about 1.75 meters tall, with a slender build, sword-shaped eyebrows and thin lips, and bright eyes. He seemed to be about the same age as Lu Hu, but he had an extra youthful personality. Chic and unrestrained spirit.

Lu Hu smiled and said, "What a fate. Please sit down!"

This person sat down as fast as Lu Hu had finished speaking. Before he finished speaking, he had already made up his mind.

When the waiter heard what Lu Hu said, he also smiled and said, "You two are really destined to live opposite each other!"

"It turns out to be him!" Lu Hu thought in his mind.

Then the man opposite burst into hearty laughter, "Hahaha, it's beautiful, it's beautiful, with such a lovely neighbor as a companion, I will have companionship when drinking in the future! The waiter is still the same, serving food and wine!"

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment!" The waiter went downstairs.

"Pei Yuan, have you asked your brother for advice?"

"Li Shan!"

"It turns out to be Brother Li. Judging from Brother Li's extraordinary demeanor, his ability to drink must not be bad compared to this. It's cold and snowy today, so it's a good time to drink. It's a pleasure for us to meet each other over wine. Brother Li, please!"

As he spoke, Pei Yuan wanted to pour wine, but there was no extra wine bowl on the table. "Waiter, get me a bowl first!"

As soon as the waiter came downstairs, he heard the shouting from above, so he quickly went up and put the wine bowl up.

As soon as the wine bowl came up, Pei Yuan eagerly filled it for Lu Hu, and then filled it for himself.

Lu Hu saw that this man was always drinking, and knew that he was a good drinker. He smiled and raised his bowl and said, "Brother Pei, we are destined to meet each other. Please!"

"Brother Li, please!"

The two raised their bowls in respect to each other, then both raised their necks and drank the whole drink in one gulp.

"Happy!" Pei Yuan wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, and then filled both of them.

"Brother stayed here for no other reason than because of his jade wine. Brother Li is afraid that it will be the same, so I said that the reunion between you and me is inseparable from this wine. For this wine, I will drink another one." bowl!"

"please!"

Lu Hu did not refuse and was very straightforward.

"As the saying goes, the three sufferings of life are lustful but without courage, fond of wine but without limit, fond of gambling but without winning. Brother Li and I are fond of wine and have limit. This is one less suffering. Just for this matter, it is enough to drink another bowl. , Brother Li, please come again!”

Pei Yuan's words to persuade him to drink were so interesting that Lu Hu finally became interested in this life.

"A good person has three sufferings in life. Since there are three sufferings, one bowl is not enough. Drink three bowls in a row and drink the other two sufferings together!"

"Brother Li is indeed brave, lustful and courageous, and loves gambling and always wins. Come on, come on! Please!"

After three bowls of drinking, Pei Yuan seemed to have settled down the alcohol bug in his belly.

"Brother Li, is this your first time in Dingbeicheng today?"

"That's right. I didn't expect that I would meet Brother Pei when I just arrived today!"

"Haha, I'm so lucky to be Brother Li's first friend in this city, please!"

"please!"

"Is Brother Pei from this city?"

"Haha, I'm from Chongzhou. I just arrived a few days earlier than Brother Li."

While the two were talking, the waiter began to serve food and wine, and they drank and ate together.

Pei Yuan also started to talk to Lu Hu about Dingbeicheng, so that he could get familiar with it as soon as possible.

After talking a lot, Lu Hu asked if there was a blacksmith shop he was familiar with. He needed to build something.

"Haha, I understand what Brother Li means. I was just about to say this. Compared with other cities in Qingzhou, the most wonderful thing about Dingbei City is that this city has day and night!"

"Oh? What is the difference between day and night?"

"My little brother only figured it out recently!" Pei Yuan lowered his voice and leaned forward a little.

"The daytime is naturally normal, but at night, there is a ghost market. This ghost market appears late at night and disperses at sunrise, hence its name.

Some things that are inconvenient during the day are very convenient in that ghost city! "

"Oh? There is such a wonderful place! Thank you Brother Pei for telling me, otherwise how would I know about this? Here's to Brother Pei!"

"Haha, it's such a small thing, it's nothing to worry about, please!"

"It just so happens that today I am going to the ghost market. If Brother Li is interested, why not go with us?"

"That's just right!"

The two of them were eating and drinking. They were both martial arts practitioners and both had large appetites. However, compared to Lu Hu's devouring food, Pei Yuan was a little more gentle.

However, he admired Lu Hu even more because of this incident. He praised Lu Hu for his heroic spirit and drank several more bowls of wine with Lu Hu.

As the two of them ate and drank heavily, the moon gradually climbed up to the eaves, and the bustling restaurant gradually calmed down.

Table after table of people left, and soon only the two of them were left drinking in the restaurant.

After drinking four bottles of wine, Pei Yuan discovered that Lu Hu's drinking capacity was as big as a bottomless pit, and there was nothing else. He drank so much, didn't he need to go to the toilet?

People who are good drinkers will more or less have the idea of ​​​​competing their drinking ability if they meet a drinking buddy.

The same goes for Pei Yuan. He usually thinks that he can't pour a thousand cups, but today he asked Lu Hu to drink it all, and his stomach was so bloated that he couldn't bear it.

I had no choice but to admit defeat and went down to relieve myself.

When Pei was far away from his seat, Lu Hu, who was already a little blushing from drinking, had a smile on his face.

"I have supernatural powers, and you want to compete with me in your drinking capacity? Haha!"

Through the previous drinking, Lu Hu also judged that Pei Yuan must have a good family. Although his behavior showed a gangster spirit, there was still a naivety and simplicity hidden in him, and he had not experienced much in the world.

He is probably just a young boy who is just starting out, and his understanding of the world is more of a beautiful imagination!

His identity should be that he comes from a well-known martial arts sect, but because he is not strong enough to practice dirty, his background should not be one of the famous sects mentioned by the empty master, it is one level lower.

When Lu Hu analyzed this, he suddenly smiled. He was a man of the world. He would first find out the details of the other party when he came up. He was a bit sophisticated.

Now if he were to ask Pei Yuan about Lu Hu's information, he would only know that Lu Hu drank happily, had a good drinking capacity, and was also practicing his strength. There was not much else to say.

"In the world of martial arts, it's fun to make friends like Pei Yuan!"
