C311 The past is like smoke

The nearest city was more like a military stronghold than a city.

Moreover, this stronghold was not important to the Tang Kingdom. The real defense line of the Tang army at the border was still two days away.

Therefore, when Xiao Wen arrived at this small pass, although it was still early, he decided to rest here for a day before deciding anything.

After all, yesterday's battle had indeed consumed a lot of everyone's stamina. Xiao Wen had already arrived at the Tang Kingdom anyway, as long as he did not do anything that would shame the entire country, Liu Bang would feel embarrassed. The emperor would not let him come back, after all, he knew that Xiao Wen was going to do a good job and establish himself as the Large Order who had the ability to become a burly man.

Although Xiao Wen made the decision himself, he knew that the big size man was different from the other countries in China. In the early Han Dynasty, he advocated the rule of inaction.

Therefore, as long as his actions were beneficial to Liu Bang, the liberal king did not mind Xiao Wen causing trouble.

However, after arriving at the mountain pass, Xiao Wen was still a little shocked. Because the highest ranking military officer here was surnamed Huai Mo.

Isn't this the eldest son of the Demon King Cheng Yaojin? Xiao Wen obviously did not think that he would actually meet a descendant of the family of generals here.

With the principle of making friends and not making enemies, Xiao Wen and Cheng Huaimo started to chat.

Because through the knowledge in books, Xiao Wen had already equipped his EQ into a very high realm, thus, in less than two hours, Cheng Huaimo, who had just met Xiao Wen, had already become good friends with him.

In the army camp, a pure silver pot was stuffed into Xiao Wen's hands. Xiao Wen looked to his side and only saw Cheng Huaimo winking at him.

"So it's wine. It doesn't look that strong!" Xiao Wen said.

As he spoke, he took a small sip.

The wine was very dry, Xiao Wen estimated that these wines were probably around 30 degrees, without any coordination or fragrance.

He closed his eyes to check the information and found that Tang Dynasty's strongest product was only triplicate. After three fermentations, the alcohol's accuracy was already quite good.

The wine was a little cloudy, and obviously did not filter out all the dregs. But after all, this was Cheng Huaimo's good intentions, and Xiao Wen could not casually waste it.

Therefore, he picked up the wine pot and gulped it down with a "gulp, gulp" sound.

Although Xiao Wen wasn't very good at drinking in his previous life, in this world, he had once soaked himself in a tavern for a month and experienced many trials.

Therefore, even for him, a thirty degrees of alcohol was not a problem. Even if he drank it all in big gulps, he could still maintain his composure.

After he finished, he was still searching for the taste of the wine. After confirming with the retrieval system, he said its name.

"Three slugs, right?"

However, this made Cheng Huaimo's mouth twitch.

"Why?"

"Why what?" Seeing the incredulous expression on Cheng Huaimo's face, Xiao Wen didn't know what he had done to make himself look like this.

Helplessly, Cheng Jiang sighed and said, "Why does Brother Xiao drink strong wine like drinking water? Furthermore, he even says the name of the wine. It is obvious that he is a close friend of Jiu Guo. It was obvious that he would usually drink this wine second time. The Sanlei Elixir was produced in the Western Regions and was extremely famous in the Luoyang. Its value was not cheap. This brother was stealing my father's treasure. Originally, he wanted to show off in front of Brother Yun, but did not expect Brother Xiao to not change his expression after drinking it.

Hearing that, Xiao Wen rolled his eyes.

What's that?

Even though he had used a method that went beyond common sense to name the wine. However, the situation with him drinking wine was not strange in his eyes.

In this world, if there were no ten thousand drunkards who could drink this kind of liquor, there would be at least seven to eight thousand of them!

This Cheng Huaimo was making a big fuss over nothing.

However, Cheng Huaimo's next sentence, added to his question, caused him to stop ridiculing himself in his heart.

He continued, "Brother Xiao, I'm afraid you are also from a famous family. It's just that I heard from Wang Shi that you can eat bitter salt with an expressionless face. To be honest, brother, as a man who grew up eating well salt, I absolutely can't stand bitter salt. "Since Brother Xiao is of noble birth like me, why did you directly eat that bitter salt?

Xiao Wen was surprised by Cheng Huaimo's meticulous planning.

"This Cheng Huaimo, actually discovered that I'm in such an abnormal place. To have such capabilities at such a young age, I'm afraid that this Great Tang Dynasty is not simple in many places! "

However, Xiao Wen was not worried.

Although the people of this world were extremely intelligent and could tell that something was not simple, they could not create something out of nothing and understand something that they could not understand before.

This is a limitation of vision and knowledge. This is the limitation of history.

If they could even break through like this, perhaps these people would have long since led their countries and civilizations and rushed towards the sea of stars. How could they still fight on the ground for these insignificant lands in the vast space?

If one recklessly thought that the ancient scholars had such a standard, it was actually not out of respect for their ancestors. Rather, it was a slander towards the history of their people.

This sort of slander is a slander against our ancestors. It is a slander against the fact that they, despite having the ability to send us to the sea of stars, are stopping us in our tracks because of the benefits they bring us.

Therefore, he only smiled and replied: "If I were to tell you that I was poorer than your subordinate Wang Shi a year ago, would you believe me?"

"I don't believe it!" Cheng Huaimo firmly shook his head and said, "How can a poor person drink such a fine wine?"

Xiao Wen was helpless, but he continued to use his superb acting to say: "The reason why I was able to drink the name of this wine, was because in the past, before my family fell, I had drunk this wine. However, it was difficult for people to part with each other and for the moon to change completely. My current wealth is just a fluke. "

Of course, Xiao Wen did not say anything, although a year ago, in his original world, his social standing was not as good as an army officer controlling fifty people.

However, he knew that his monthly income of six thousand yuan was enough to support him in living a life where, other than girls who could only be replaced with fake movies, he could also suppress the emperor in all other aspects.

Of course, these were not meant for outsiders.

Thinking about this, Xiao Wen said: "Regarding the previous matter, I don't care about it anymore! The past was like smoke that could not be investigated. Being able to survive in this world was already the blessing of the heavens. Meeting with Brother Cheng today is just the right time to drink. " As he said that, he took another big gulp under Cheng Huaimo's pained expression.

Cheng Huaimo saw that Xiao Wen did not seem to have any intentions of leaving any wine for him, so he immediately took the wine pot back from Xiao Wen's hands.

However, he felt that doing this was a bit stingy, so he also took a sip and said, "Brother Xiao has that kind of insight, I'm impressed. Today, I will accompany Brother Xiao for a drink! "
