Chapter 104
Meng Lilun raised his eyes to look at the starry sky, the stars shining with light white brilliance were sparsely scattered on a velvety black curtain, the smile hanging on the corner of his thin lips gradually disappeared, and a trace of calm flashed in his eyes.

His throat rolled, and he said in a low voice: "Nowadays, there are disputes in the world, the dark tide is raging, everything tomorrow is unknown, and the pattern of the Great Desolation is changing every moment. Predict what will happen next moment."

Xiao Muyan withdrew her gaze, and she looked slightly sideways at Meng Lilun, with a rare expression on her handsome profile, waiting for what he was about to say in a second.

A smile emerged from the corner of Meng Lilun's lips and said, "If... I mean, if our two countries really stand on opposite sides, will you become my enemy?"

Xiao Muyan's expression froze for a moment, she didn't expect that Meng Lilun's words would be so worried, maybe he just asked such a sentence because he saw the changing situation in the future.

But is there a country that belongs to her in the Great Desolation?According to Xiao Muyan's identity, she is considered to be half of the Gochen Kingdom, but she has no sense of belonging in her heart.

What's more, from Xiao Muyan's father, Xiao Tianyi, to the high-ranking rulers in this country, and those dignified ministers, who is not on the opposite side of her?

From the moment she opened her eyes in this world, she not only inherited Xiao Muyan's identity, but also betrayed everything about her. She seemed to belong to this country, but she never recognized it. Now, in the future, in the future It will be too.

She had endured too much for the country in her previous life, and she didn't want to be involved for the Gou Chen country in this life, she just wanted to live a life of recklessness.

Xiao Muyan laughed heartily, she took the folding fan in her hand smartly, and beat it in the palm of her hand.

She lowered her eyes slightly and couldn't help but smiled and said: "Meng Lilun, don't worry, we will never become enemies. I have always had a clear distinction between likes and hates. Do you think there is a reason why this land is worthy of my protection? I just because All kinds of conflicts between their interests will lead them to walk through the gate of hell, and what kind of mentality do you want me to have when facing Gouchen Kingdom?"

Meng Lilun opened his mouth, feeling his throat was dry, but he didn't say anything, a look of pity flashed across his eyes.

She moved her feet and strode forward, all the smiles turned into a smile on her lips, and she said loudly: "Meng Lilun, don't forget that I am a person who puts interests first, if you If you give me a lot of money at that time, maybe I can turn against you and become your secret agent."

Meng Lilun smiled, walked quickly to Xiao Muyan's side, and joked: "Okay, don't regret it when the time comes."

Xiao Muyan rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Of course I will do what I say, but you must pay a good price."

The two talked and laughed, and unknowingly walked to an inconspicuous alleyway. A light yellow lantern was swaying in the dark alleyway. On the slightly yellowish veil smoked by the candlelight was written a huge wine Character.

Xiao Muyan tilted her head and asked, "Is this the wine shop you're talking about?"

Meng Lilun nodded slightly with a smile and said: "Exactly, even though this store is inconspicuous, but this sweet-scented osmanthus wine is a must. I have traveled all over the world and drank countless fine wines. Only this one's wine is the best. Unforgettable and most evocative."

Xiao Muyan smiled slightly and said: "Since that's the case, it's not too late to taste the fine wine. I can't wait. I want to taste how delicious the fine wine is in your mouth."

Before the words finished, Xiao Muyan's figure flickered, and she ran towards the shop quickly. Meng Lilun shook his head with a smile and said, "Wait for me."

The door of the wine shop is a small square wooden door. Even if a wooden door with peeling black paint is wide open, only one person will be able to pass through it. Except for the dilapidated lantern, there is no one at the door. There is no sign of the wine shop, there is not even a plaque and the name of the wine shop.

Xiao Muyan couldn't help sighing in her heart, it's really a strange wine shop.She stepped over the threshold with a trace of curiosity, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw the red New Year pictures pasted on the dark wooden door. Looking closely, she looked like two vicious gods. Although they were old, the New Year pictures had faded a lot. However, it can be vaguely seen that the painting on the painting is the door god.

Entering the wine shop, the space inside is not big, and you can take a glance at the whole house.Stepping into the door, there are three square black wooden tables at the nearest place. Looking inside, there is a narrow counter near the wall, surrounded by high and low wine tanks. There are seven or eight gourds and three or four clepsydra hanging obliquely on the wooden frame on the side.

The house is filled with the smell of wine, and there is no one in the house, like a wine cellar without an owner.Meng Lilun came in on his heels and stood beside Xiao Muyan.

Xiao Muyan asked puzzledly: "Is there no one in this wine shop tonight?"

Meng Lilun glanced at it, and said with a mysterious smile: "The owner of this wine shop never stays in this small shop, behind this wine shop is his small courtyard, he will hide in that small courtyard when he has nothing to do. Among them, only guests will appear here."

Xiao Muyan smiled and said: "The owner of this wine shop is also a free and unrestrained person, he is not afraid that someone will enter this wine shop and take all the wine away."

"Little old man, I'm not afraid of thieves thinking about it, but my mouthful of big vats are worth hundreds of catties. There is no way to take them away, unless he drinks them all here. I also respect him as a man, and I will definitely not take any money. .”

A vicissitudes of voice resounded through the wine shop, Xiao Muyan turned her eyes and followed the source of the voice, and found that the voice came from behind a small blue cotton curtain.

Accompanied by the voice came out an old man with a hunched back and a white beard. He was wearing a dark blue padded robe, his hair and beard were grizzled, his face was covered with wrinkles, but his face was ruddy and he was hale and hearty. His body is light and he doesn't look like an old person at all.

Seeing this person, Meng Lilun twitched his lips and called respectfully: "Uncle He, today I brought my friends to your wine shop to taste sweet-scented osmanthus wine, but you have to serve the five-year-old wine. Otherwise, it will smash your signboard."

Xiao Muyan nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Uncle He."

The old man known as He Bo took a look at Xiao Muyan, and he smiled heartily: "You are a naughty boy, every time you come here you know to call for my five-year-old wine, I think my good wine will be sold sooner or later." I was drunk by you kid. Now that I have brought a friend, don’t you want to drink it for me tonight?”

Meng Lilun raised his eyebrows, and joked: "Uncle He brews new wine every year, how can I drink it all year after year? One of the great pleasures of my life is all thanks to Uncle He's sweet-scented osmanthus brewing."
