Yun Yang had used the Blood of the Hero as bait, but he had only tasted it. The soldiers who were still intoxicated by the wine could not resist much.
Besides, they still had to stay here for more than ten days and had so many plans to execute. It would not be good if their relationship with this designated tour guide was strained.
Didn't you, Yun Yang, want to put on an act? Who doesn't know how to do that?
However, feigning civility is what we are good at!
"Alright, alright, Young Master Yun is straightforward indeed."
A bearded general stood up with a smile. "We still have to take two more pots of wine."
"What's the problem? One thousand and five hundred silver taels per pot, how many pots should we take?" Yun Yang said generously, "Who's going to pay?"
"…"
The bearded general glared at Yun Yang for a long time but could not utter a single word.
Didn't you say you were going to treat us just now?
Yun Yang stared at them with clear, righteous eyes and said matter-of-factly, "I said that I would treat all of you to a few pots of wine, of course I meant it. However, it's only a few pots. Are you sure that a few pots are enough for all of you to drink? Do you want me to pay for the rest? There's no such logic in this world! "
In the face of such righteousness and confidence, who could resist such a confident and confident speech?
The bearded general was fuming for a moment, but he did not dare to argue with Yun Yang. After all, in terms of shamelessness, even if the generals of the allied forces were to come together, they would not be this child's opponent. Moreover, he was alone. It was better not to embarrass himself.
"I'll do it!"
The bearded general was gritting his teeth when he fished out the banknotes.
He had snatched the one to pay the bill with his first move!
Even when he knew that he had the upper hand, it was still depressing to take the loss.
"How much exactly? We have quite a lot of people here, two hundred of us. "Yun Yang asked enthusiastically," A hundred pots? Is a hundred pots enough? "
The man held his breath and gritted his teeth. "A pot is twenty catties, a hundred pots would be two thousand catties. How can we drink so much? Give me a hundred pots! "
Looking at the strange gazes of the surrounding generals, the bearded general finally waved his hand generously.
He could not afford to lose face like this.
"The general is straightforward after all, definitely a great character, bright and heroic!"
Yun Yang took the banknotes and laughed. "I'll go arrange for the wine now. Hmm, and the dishes that go with it … Shopkeeper, shopkeeper! Come, pick your signature dishes and serve twenty tables … Do you see that forthright general over there? Just settle the bill with him, without any hesitation! "
Yun Yang exited the room beaming. "I'll go get the wine now. It'll be quick. I'll be right back."
Before he finished speaking, he disappeared with a whoosh.
The general's eyes widened in shock!
This bastard!
He actually threw the money for the food to me? …
I … How much silver did I bring?
These silvers … I still need to buy wine for my brothers and transport it back …
But from the looks of it, he would probably go bankrupt after eating this meal.
A few generals from the same country as him stood up silently. "Dayuan will pay for this meal."
Han Sanhe's eyes glinted.
The generals of Dayuan seemed to be quite united.
According to what he knew, this bearded man had a fiery temper and did not have a good relationship with his colleagues. However, not only did the others not kick him when he was down, they had completely put aside their personal grudges and shouldered this meal in the name of Dayuan.
Even though Yun Yang's method of losing money was like a stroke of genius, the pressure was much lesser now that it was distributed among fifty people. Even if there were still losses, it was not as severe as it seemed.
…
That night, the Tower to Heaven Inn was brightly lit and extremely noisy. Yun Yang grabbed the wine and urged them to drink.
"Come, come, come, cheers!"
"Another bowl!"
"Let's drink together!"
"Everyone is generous indeed, come!"
"Men of the military indeed, one more, one more!"
"This wine is great, it makes my blood boil. Come, come, let's drink!"
As they drank, many of the generals grew disgruntled.
"We're all drinking a bowl and you're only taking a sip. What is this?"
"You've already drunk with dozens of us, but you haven't even finished half of this bowl, have you?"
"This child is playing tricks!"
A few people rushed over.
Swoosh!
Yun Yang emptied it in one gulp. "Come, let's get serious now!"
The crowd was stunned. Had he been drinking the entire time just now?
However, Yun Yang's alcohol tolerance was quite good. He downed bowl after bowl without a change in expression.
They drank until midnight, swaying from side to side and piling up under the tables.
However, Yun Yang's eyes were sharp. From the beginning to the end, he was paying attention to every detail.
There were many who drank too much or were drunk, but at least three or four of them had left the banquet, their whereabouts unknown.
After a while, the drunkenness grew stronger, but there were another seven or eight people missing.
If it had been someone else, they might have suspected that these fellows had drunk too much and had gone to find a place to sleep, but Yun Yang did not think so.
These fellows had come with ulterior motives, how could they miss the opportunity?
He had purposely created a messy drinking opportunity … Would they let go of this chance to take advantage of the chaos?
Ninety-nine percent of those who had gone missing had gone to the Residence of Nine Supremes.
Yun Yang's gaze flickered as he hopped onto the table with a loud thud and hollered, "Who else? Who else is a man? Come, drink with me! I – I'll drink all of you to death today! "
Another round of guzzling, another seventeen or eighteen people were missing.
Yun Yang could see clearly that those who were missing were the attendants and guards of the generals.
Not a single one of the great imperial generals was missing.
Let's go, the more the merrier …
Yun Yang finally felt that it was about time, stumbling towards Han Sanhe. "Marshal Han … uh … ugh … I propose a toast to you … Come on, cheers!"
He raised his bowl and craned his neck.
The crimson wine dripped, but most of it landed on his neck.
Then, Young Master Yun rolled his eyes and chuckled. "Good wine! Good wine! How f * cking satisfying … "
Before he could finish, a certain someone closed his eyes and collapsed.
Coincidentally, she fell right into Han Sanhe's embrace. Thunderous snores could be heard immediately; she was snoring as she slept, and wine was spilling out of her mouth at the same time.
Was he drunk?
Han Sanhe was caught off guard by the sudden turn of events. He watched as Yun Yang fell asleep in his embrace, sleeping in such an odd manner. He did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Han Sanhe tried a few more times to make sure that the fellow was truly unconscious. He could not help sighing. This bastard really knew how to pick his targets. Whoever he had fallen to, he would have been kicked away, but he had fallen into Han Sanhe's embrace. Han Sanhe was crowned the continent's top general, the continent's God of War. Even if he wanted to, he could not bring himself to do such a thing.
However, was he supposed to just hug him to sleep?
Han Sanhe thought about it and felt a chill run down his spine.
"Send him to a room."
…
Watching Yun Yang being sent away, Han Sanhe's gaze turned deep. The youth dressed in black beside him was looking at Han Sanhe with a questioning gaze.
"Don't go." Han Sanhe sucked in a deep breath and said, "Give up on the operation against the Residence of Nine Supremes."
"…?" The young man in black was confused.
"If those people who went there earlier come back, it's not too late for you to go tomorrow."
Han Sanhe said in a low voice, "If they don't come back, I hope you'll give up on this idea."
The youth in black lowered his head and nodded silently.
"What do you think of this Young Master Yun?" Han Sanhe asked.
"He's just a popinjay. What can he do?" The youth in black pursed his lips in disdain.
"What can he do?" Han Sanhe sucked in a breath, his gaze clear. "This person … is an extremely terrifying and extraordinary character! There's no mistaking this! "
"An extremely terrifying character? Just from the fact that he fell into your arms defenselessly just now, how could he be considered extremely terrifying?! "
The youth in black rolled his eyes and said, "Besides, even if he's really terrifying, he won't be a threat anymore!"
Han Sanhe asked, "Hmm? What did you do? "
"I used a Soul-Sealing Needle to test if he was really drunk."
A murderous glint flashed in the youth's eyes. "The poison on the needle will act up half a month later … I've already confirmed that the poison of the Soul-Sealing Needle has melted into his bloodstream as a blue line."
"So, even if this person is immensely capable, he's doomed."
The youth in black said.
Han Sanhe frowned and asked, "Are you confident?"
"There's no antidote to the Soul-Sealing Needle." The youth's gaze was cold. "It's just like that poison …"
Han Sanhe sighed softly and frowned, as if he did not agree with such a method. However, he did not say anything in the end, only saying faintly, "This old man is already old …"
The youth in black said, "Marshal is in his prime, how can you say that you're old?"
He then stopped talking and helped Han Sanhe back to their room to rest.
…
In the guest room.
Yun Yang was sprawled out on the bed, his snores deafening, sleeping like a dead pig. However, one of his right hands was placed at the base of his thighs.
Yun Yang's snores were rhythmic; his eyes were shut and his eyeballs were unmoving. Occasionally, he would mumble and spit out a mouthful of wine.
If anyone saw him like this, they wouldn't suspect that he was pretending to be drunk.
However, on his right thigh, his right hand moved quickly. A faint blue light suddenly flashed on his thigh, and a needle as thin as a cow's hair had already reached between his two fingers.
In the blink of an eye, the blue needle had disappeared.
Yun Yang's mind was clear.
"What a vicious move!"
