Hearing the shopkeeper's words, the waiter shut his mouth and could not help but smile. He stood to the side and gently poked the red paper that sealed the wine. A strong wine aroma spread out from the wine jar.
After Nangong Zhe smelled the wine aroma, he raised his eyebrows slightly. However, he did not say anything. He just quietly watched the waiter put the wine in the wine jar into a slightly rough white porcelain jug using a bamboo container.
The shopkeeper also stood up and took out a pair of wine glasses made of jasper from the shabby counter. It was obviously a shabby wine shop, but there was a pair of expensive wine glasses. It was really strange.
"When I drink ordinary wine, I usually don't bear to take out this pair of ancestral jasper glasses. However, today's wine must be served with a jasper glass to truly appreciate its color and taste. "
The shopkeeper took the two jasper glasses and walked to the small table where Nangong Zhe was sitting.
One glass was placed in front of Nangong Zhe, and the other glass was placed in front of him.
Nangong Zhe picked up the glass and gently rubbed it with his hand. The wonderful touch of the jasper and the slightly cold feeling passed through his fingertips to Nangong Zhe's heart. Although this pair of glasses had been kept by the shopkeeper, they were usually not used. However, it was obvious that the shopkeeper would take them out from time to time to carefully maintain them. It was enough to show the shopkeeper's love for them.
The waiter held the white porcelain jug and stood beside Nangong Zhe.
Nangong Zhe also understood and put the glass in his hand on the table.
Perhaps the white porcelain jug had been heated before, the wine that was poured out emitted wisps of smoke in the slightly cold air. After the wine was heated, the aroma of the wine was even more obvious.
"Young friend … It's rare for wine lovers to gather together. Why don't we have a drink together?"
The shopkeeper raised his glass and said to Nangong Zhe.
"Alright! In this ninja world, most people like the tasteless sake. Although sake also had its own taste, I liked this kind of aged wine. It wasn't because of its rich taste. It's just because it suits me the most. "
Nangong Zhe took his blanket and gently touched the blanket in the shopkeeper's hand. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Then, they slowly took a sip from the wine glass in their hands. The cold feeling of the jasper and the warm feeling of the wine merged into one, giving a different kind of experience.
This wine … Actually, Nangong Zhe had drunk it before. He had even drunk it quite a few times, but Nan Gongzhe did not show it.
With good wine in front of them, they naturally had to drink before talking about other things.
The two of them had simple dishes to go with the wine and started to drink together.
Gradually, it seemed that the alcohol was taking effect. The shopkeeper, who looked a little old, had a dazed look in his eyes as he stroked his beard that almost reached his chest.
"When the ancients drank, they were often full of literary interest. From time to time, they would sing and write lyrics. This old man's talent is not high, so naturally, I can't write a lot of beautiful poems like the ancients. But I have heard a few words, which can be regarded as singing the mind of the people who drink. If the guest doesn't mind, this old man will also show his incompetence … "
Nangong Zhe naturally wouldn't stop him, so he nodded and motioned the shopkeeper to sing.
"Hahaha … Then this old man will show his incompetence …
Don't you see, the water of the Yellow River comes from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returning.
Don't you see, the bright mirror of the hall is sad, white hair in the morning is like black hair in the evening … "
The more the shopkeeper sang, the more passionate he became. His voice, which was a little hoarse, was now more vigorous and tragic.
Nangong Zhe was also affected by the shopkeeper's singing. He took the bamboo chopsticks in his hand and tapped the jasper cup in his hand.
Whether it was the human voice or the tapping sound, it formed an indescribable harmony. As the feelings of the two became more and more agitated. An invisible force began to spread out uncontrollably. Even the shabby wine shed was affected by the two of them. Some of the dust in the corners that couldn't be cleaned were stirred up by the force and scattered down.
However, the force was maintained in the wine shop and didn't spread out at all.
The waiter, who was standing by the side and adding wine for the two of them, wasn't frightened by such a strange scene at all. On the contrary, he was still very calm. With a smile, he held the wine pot and looked at the two people who were singing in front of him.
This song wasn't considered long. Even if the two of them were singing softly and at a slower speed, there was still a time when it ended.
"Hu 'er will be exchanged for good wine, and with you, we will quell the worries of eternity!"
When the shopkeeper sang the last line, his voice had clearly stopped, but his voice still echoed in the tavern.
The word 'worries' seemed to contain an unusual force. It echoed for a long time and didn't dissipate.
"Wine, this is indeed good wine …" Nan Gongzhe raised the cup that still had a little bit of wine in it and drank it all in one gulp. Then, he looked at the shopkeeper and chuckled, "This person … is also a wonderful person!"
That's right. As Nangong Zhe expected, the shopkeeper wasn't simple at all!
When the shopkeeper started to sing, Nangong Zhe felt that the shopkeeper began to emit a force that was different from Chakra. This force was the inner strength that Nangong Zhe was very familiar with.
Therefore, Nangong Zhe cooperated with the shopkeeper and began to inject his inner strength into the bamboo chopsticks in his hand. While he was tapping the wine cup, Nangong Zhe was also using the tapping sound to test the shopkeeper.
The strength of the two of them began to increase, and their strength began to resonate with each other. In the beginning, the two of them were still able to control it and restrain the resonance. However, in the end, the strength became stronger and stronger. The two of them could only restrain a part of their strength and watch as the excess energy dissipated and began to affect the wine shop.
However, there seemed to be a barrier around the wine shop that could block the inner strength. Therefore, the strength of the two of them continued to reverberate in this small area of the wine shop.
The shopkeeper wasn't an ordinary person, and so was the waiter. If an ordinary person received the impact of the resonance formed by the strength of the shopkeeper and Nangong Zhe, they would definitely suffer some internal injuries. If their body was better, they would just not vomit blood on the spot.
However, the waiter still acted naturally during this period.
From time to time, he would add wine to the cups in Nangong Zhe and the shopkeeper's hands. He seemed excessively normal.
"Hahaha … This wine, I'm sure you've already recognized it, right? If you can't recognize it, you can't be considered the successor of that existence … "
The shopkeeper looked at Nangong Zhe and placed the wine cup in his hand in front of his nose. He sniffed lightly and asked Nangong Zhe.
