Chapter 173 Drinking
There are many inns in Linwufang, and the fees are different.
If the hundreds of people from Qianyu Sword Sect live in Zuixinju, even with the wealth of Qianyu Sword Sect, they cannot afford it.
They all live in an ordinary inn, which saves a lot of money.
Hearing that Yunmeng is also here, Lin Mu is overjoyed.
Luo Yun smiled and said, "Wait here for a while, I'll go and call them."
Lin Mu smiled and said, "Why don't I go with you?" He also wanted to see Yunmeng earlier.
Luo Yun smiled and said, "Don't go yet, I won't tell them, give them a surprise."
Lin Mu nodded with a wry smile, and Luo Yun turned and left with a smirk on his face.
Luo Chen said to Lin Mu and Wei Sheng, "Let's go in and book the banquet first."
Wei Sheng said, "Make arrangements in advance, and when they come, we can start the banquet immediately."
Lin Mu looked at Luo Yun's figure going away, came back to his senses, smiled and nodded, and then walked into Zuixinju with Luo Chen and Wei Sheng.
Zuixinju is elegantly furnished, with pearl curtains on the painted boat, carved beams and fragrant aromas.
A graceful maid came forward and smiled: "Three guests, are you staying or staying overnight?"
Luo Chen looked at the beautiful maid and said with a smile: "We are not staying, we just want to drink. Let's have fifteen tables of banquet."
The maid smiled even more when she heard this: "Please follow me. There is a private room on the second floor."
The three of them came to the second floor, which was indeed spacious and bright. Twenty tables were enough to accommodate the people of Qianyu Jianmen.
Luo Chen nodded, very satisfied, turned around and smiled at the maid: "Fifteen tables, you can decide, don't be too luxurious, don't be too shabby, about four hundred low-grade spirit stones per table."
The maid smiled and nodded, and asked: "Is the wine for mortals or for cultivators?"
Luo Chen said: "Of course it is for cultivators, what good wine is here?"
The maid smiled and said: "How about Forget Worry Wine? The wine is mellow and fragrant. After drinking it, it is also very beneficial to cultivation. The price is not expensive, only one hundred low-grade spirit stones per jar."
Luo Chen nodded and said: "Okay, one jar for each table first, and more if it's not enough."
The maid smiled: "Please wait a moment, the banquet will be served."
Luo Chen smiled and nodded, the maid swayed her willow waist and left slowly.
After the maid left, Luo Chen turned around and asked Lin Mu and Wei Sheng with a smile: "How is it?"
Lin Mu and Wei Sheng said in unison: "Not bad!"
The three chatted for a while, and then heard a commotion downstairs.
A group of people came upstairs in a line, about a hundred people.
Luo Yun led the way, and it was undoubtedly the disciples of Qianyu Sword Sect.
Everyone was smiling, walked up and greeted the three people.
Everyone was surprised to see Lin Mu suddenly, and then their faces were happy, and they came forward to ask about his well-being, very friendly.
Lin Mu smiled and greeted everyone one by one.
These were all people he used to know, and they had been opponents in the outer disciples' competition.
Time passed like water, and many years later, these people have now successfully built their foundations.
Xu Song, Fu Shan, Gong Xiang, Liao Ze, Qi Ming, Fei Xin, Sha He, Qin Zhi, Zong Lun, Qiu Sheng...
Familiar faces, one by one, Lin Mu can still remember their names.
Many people have heard of Lin Mu's deeds and know that he was hunted by the Yuling Sect. Seeing Lin Mu again now, they are all filled with regret.
Lin Mu's cultivation is now in the middle stage of foundation building, and everyone can't help but admire and compliment him.
Lin Mu smiled and greeted everyone one by one.
Qifeng stood in the crowd, looking at Lin Mu with a smile on his face.
Mu Qing and Zhang Ruoxu stood together, and they also smiled, just like other disciples.
Lin Mu has remembered everything they did, and no matter how they pretended at this moment, Lin Mu would not believe it.
Lin Mu didn't care about their smiles at all, and pretended not to see them.
Lin Mu looked in the crowd and found Yunmeng in the corner.
Yunmeng stood behind the crowd, lowered her head, and didn't care about everything around her. There was a hint of sadness on her face, which made people pity her.
Yunmeng!
After not seeing her for many years, Yunmeng has become more beautiful, her skirt dancing lightly, and her demeanor is charming.
"I haven't seen you for a long time. Is everything okay, Junior Sister?" Lin Mu came to Yun Meng and asked with a smile.
Yun Meng lowered her head and thought about something. She was lost in thought.
Lin Mu's question suddenly rang in her ears.
Yun Meng suddenly came back to her senses, her whole body trembled, and she slowly raised her head.
The person in front of her was the one she missed day and night.
Yun Meng completely forgot to answer Lin Mu's question, and stared at Lin Mu infatuatedly, stunned in place.
Two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks, and she cried with joy.
This is really a surprise!
Since Lin Mu left the sect, there has been no news, and he has never returned.
Later, she heard that Lin Mu was hunted by the Yuling Sect. She was worried and wanted to leave the sect and come out to look for him, but because she had not established her foundation, she was stopped by the elders.
This time, as soon as she established her foundation, she took the initiative to propose to come with her fellow disciples to hunt monsters, just to find out about Lin Mu's news.
But along the way, she gained nothing.
Until she came to the Misty Forest, she had not found any news.
She was so sad that she had no interest in the outside world.
She didn't want to come to this banquet.
Luo Yun said that he met an old friend and wanted to get together.
He set up a banquet in Zuixinju and invited fellow disciples to come and drink together.
If Luo Yun hadn't persuaded her for a long time, she would not come at all.
She didn't care about other people.
These excitements had nothing to do with her.
But she never thought that the old friend Luo Yun was talking about was Lin Mu!
She was suddenly overwhelmed with joy and sorrow, and she burst into tears.
Her eyes were misty with tears, and she was so beautiful.
Lin Mu was also stunned, and then he came to his senses, took out a handkerchief, handed it to Yun Meng, and smiled: "Junior sister, are you sad to see me? Don't cry, wipe your tears."
Yun Meng came to her senses, took the handkerchief, wiped away her tears, and just looked at Lin Mu, but didn't say a word.
Luo Yun came forward and teased, "I asked you to come, but you didn't want to come. How are you going to thank me now?"
Yun Meng's face flushed red. She glanced at Lin Mu and lowered her head without saying a word.
Lin Mu smiled and helped her out: "You must not have told her that I was here. You are clearly lying. You will have to drink three cups as punishment later."
Luo Yun laughed and said, "I am willing to accept the punishment."
Mu Qing and Zhang Ruoxu were beside them, looking at Lin Mu with a smile on their faces. Just as they were about to speak, Lin Mu suddenly turned his head and smiled at Luo Yun, saying, "We haven't seen each other for a long time. We should sit together and have a good chat."
Luo Yun smiled, "Of course." Then he turned to Yun Meng and smiled, "Junior Sister Yun Meng, are you going? You won't refuse again this time, will you?"
Yun Meng's face flushed even redder, as if water was about to drip out.
Lin Mu smiled, without even looking at Mu Qing and Zhang Ruoxu, and sat down at an empty table with Luo Yun and Yun Meng.
Mu Qing and Zhang Ruoxu stood there awkwardly, looking at each other, with regret in their eyes.
The three of them sat down, Yun Meng sat next to Lin Mu, her face rosy and even more beautiful.
After Luo Chen and Wei Sheng arranged for the others to sit down, they also came forward and sat at the same table with Lin Mu and Luo Yun.
There were already five people at the table, and there were still three empty seats. Qi Feng was sharp-eyed, and smiled and came with Xu Song and Fu Shan, sitting around.
As soon as the eight people sat down, the maids began to serve the dishes.
More than a dozen dishes were served one after another, with fragrance overflowing, extremely rich, and filling the table.
Luo Chen took a jar of forget-worry wine handed over by the maid, broke the mud seal, and an intoxicating aroma of wine filled the air.
"Good wine!" Wei Sheng praised: "It makes you drunk."
Qifeng also laughed and said: "This Forget Worry Wine is a specialty in Zuixinju. It is said that after three cups of wine, you will fall asleep and forget all your worries."
Xu Song and Fu Shan left the sect for the first time and knew nothing about it. When they heard Qifeng say this, their eyes lit up.
Luo Yun smiled and said: "I won't go home until I'm drunk today. Come, let's drink a cup first. This Forget Worry Wine smells good. I think it tastes good."
Qifeng took the wine jar and smiled: "I'll pour the wine."
Everyone filled a cup, and the wine was fragrant and intoxicating.
Several people raised their glasses, clinked their glasses, and raised their heads to drink it all.
Yunmeng picked up the glass and took a sip. Her face became even more rosy and beautiful.
Luo Yun smiled and said: "Junior Sister Yunmeng, this won't work. We've finished drinking!" After saying that, he turned his glass down without spilling a drop of wine.
Yunmeng was not able to drink much and was about to refuse, but Luo Yun smiled and said, "You must not refuse. You must drink this glass of wine." Then he added, "If you can't drink it, you can find someone to replace you." After that, he looked at Lin Mu with a sly smile.
Lin Mu looked at Luo Yun and knew that this kid was deliberately doing something bad.
Knowing that there was a pit ahead, he had to jump in. Then he poured the wine in Yunmeng's glass into his own glass and drank it all, with the mouth of the glass facing down, without a drop left.
After drinking the first glass of wine, several people began to be casual, eating, drinking and chatting, toasting and having a great time.
After a long separation, Lin Mu became the focus of everyone, and everyone frequently clinked glasses with Lin Mu.
Lin Mu accepted all the wine, and a jar of wine was quickly drunk, and Luo Chen asked for another jar.
After drinking, several people were drunk.
The other dozen people at the tables also drank to their heart's content.
The banquet was over at midnight.
Lin Mu was already drunk and could not tell the difference between things. The others were not much better. Forget-your-worry wine was the strongest. Three cups would make one drunk. They drank two jars in total, which was already more than three cups.
Yun Meng was the only one who was still sober among the eight people. Luo Chen was drunk and said goodbye to Lin Mu, leading hundreds of people away.
As soon as they left, Lin Mu fell on the table and was unconscious.
Luo Yun walked unsteadily, but was still somewhat sober. He ran to tell the maid that he would prepare a Zuixinju for Lin Mu.
Then he staggered upstairs and said to Yun Meng, "Junior Brother Lin Mu is already drunk. You should stay and take care of him tonight." He smiled evilly and stumbled downstairs without waiting for Yun Meng to reply.
Only Lin Mu and Yun Meng were left on the second floor.
Yun Meng looked at Lin Mu with a gentle look on her face.
Two maids came forward and wanted to help Lin Mu to Zuixinju to rest.
Yunmeng refused immediately and let the two girls lead the way. She helped Lin Mu up and half-carried him back to Zuixinju.
The two maids looked at Yunmeng and Lin Mu and giggled all the way behind them.
Seeing the two people walk into Zuixinju, the two maids closed the door considerately and gently, and then left with a smile.
There was no conversation that night.
