Chapter 370 Young Man on White Horse Drunk in Spring Breeze 5
After Wenhujiu heard this, he instantly fell silent. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze slowly swept over his nephew in front of him, thinking secretly in his heart. You know, their Zhenxi Marquis Mansion has always been suspected by the current emperor, and the slightest mistake may lead to a fatal disaster. However, when he saw his nephew's happy look, and thought that if Dongjun really liked this girl, it seemed that there would be no big deal. After thinking for a while, Wenhujiu finally broke the silence. He coughed lightly, and then said slowly: "In this case, then the girl, come back with us to Qiandong City!"
Hearing this, Baili Dongjun almost jumped up with excitement. He said to Miss Lin with a smile on his face, "Miss Lin, when we get to Qiandong City, I will definitely take you on a tour of Qiandong City and let you experience the local customs and people."
Feng Xi nodded slightly and replied softly, "Okay! Then I'll have to trouble Dongjun." And so, the four of them embarked on the long journey to Qiandong City. Along the way, Baili Dongjun's young and curious heart could not be restrained. He was full of yearning for all the strange stories in the martial arts world, always wanting to witness them with his own eyes. So, blinking his bright eyes, he looked at his uncle with anticipation and begged coquettishly, "Uncle, please be kind and take me to see those interesting things in the martial arts world!"
The wine-warming pot couldn't help but laugh at his nephew's impatience. He thought for a moment, then smiled and replied, "Well, since you're so eager to go, let's stop by the Sword Forest on the way back. It opens every four years, and this year is the fourth, and it's opening in the next few days. It's sure to attract swordsmen from all corners of the world. We're on our way, so why not stop by and take a look?"
Sikong Changfeng, who was standing by, heard this and turned to look at Feng Xi. He asked, "Miss Feng Xi, what do you think? Would you like to go to this sword forest together to broaden your horizons?"
Feng Xi pondered for a moment, her mind reminiscing about the Sword Forest. It was said that whenever the Sword Forest opened, the scene was incredibly lively, offering not only spectacular duels between top swordsmen but also the opportunity to make friends with prominent figures. Her lips curled slightly at this thought, and she nodded gently, saying, "If that's the case, let's go and see it together. I've heard that the Sword Forest's opening is incredibly lively, and I'm sure this will be an eye-opener."
After hearing this, Baili Dongjun's yearning for the Sword Forest grew stronger. Various wonderful images emerged in his mind. He was filled with joy, thinking that this trip to the Sword Forest would surely be bustling and full of surprises. So, the four of them drove their carriage steadily and galloped towards Divine Sword Town, where the Sword Forest was located.
The road was bustling with activity. Martial artists of all stripes, all bearing longswords, walked alone, in groups of three or five. Some hurried, others strolled leisurely, but without exception, each exuded a heroic aura unique to the Jianghu.
Looking at the scene before him, Baili Dongjun couldn't hide his excitement. He turned to Miss Lin beside him and said, "Miss Lin, look at this Shenjian Town. It's really lively!"
Sikong Changfeng, who was sitting beside him, could not help but nod and praise: "It really is the Divine Sword Town that lives up to its reputation!"
Hearing Baili Dongjun calling her "Miss Lin" over and over again, Feng Xi finally couldn't help but scold her, "Dongjun, could you please stop calling me 'Miss Lin' and 'Miss Lin' all the time? Just call me by my name!"
After hearing what Feng Xi said, Baili Dongjun scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said with a wry smile: "Oh, look at my memory, I forgot!"
Seeing this, Feng Xi rolled her eyes at him. At that moment, a unique and rich aroma of wine suddenly wafted into Baili Dongjun's nose. He followed the scent and saw a small wine stall not far away. After inquiring, he learned that the wine was called "Sword Wine," a local specialty.
Just as everyone gathered together to discuss the sword wine, Wen Hujiu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up and said, "Speaking of the finest wines in the world, the one that I can never forget after tasting it is undoubtedly Qiu Lu Bai." Feng Xi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sweet smile. She took out a pot of fine wine with a faint peach blossom fragrance from her bag and handed it to Wen Hujiu, saying in a delicate voice, "Uncle, come and try this pot of peach blossom wine that I brewed myself, and see if it can compare to Qiu Lu Bai!"
Seeing Feng Xi so enthusiastically offering him the wine, Wen Jiu hurriedly reached out to take it. He eagerly opened the lid, tilted his head back, and gulped down a large gulp. He smacked his lips and exclaimed, "What a wonderful wine! Qiu Lu Bai simply can't compare to this kind of wine! Its rich, mellow flavor, its delicate, elegant aroma, truly a nectar only enjoyed by the immortals..." Dong Jun, standing nearby, smiled and nodded in agreement. It turned out that Feng Xi had given him a similar pot of peach blossom wine before. Not only was it incredibly delicious and incredibly memorable, but it also left him feeling completely relaxed and refreshed.
Feng Xi couldn't help but smile even more brightly when she heard her uncle and Dongjun praising her Peach Blossom Wine. She replied with a hint of shyness, "Uncle, you're really too kind! Although this Peach Blossom Wine is indeed unique, it may still be slightly inferior to those world-famous liquors. However, if you like it, uncle, when we arrive in Qiandong City, your niece will surely brew several more jars for you so that you can drink as much as you want!"
Wenhujiu, meanwhile, was savoring his wine with delight, nodding his head repeatedly, "Great, great! Uncle's looking forward to tasting your cooking! Hahahaha..." Meanwhile, Dongjun, standing not far away, had already purchased a jar of a strong liquor called "Sword Wine" and begun guzzling it. Seeing this, Sikong Changfeng couldn't help but glance at Dongjun and, with a hint of concern, said to Wenhujiu, "You don't even bother with him? Drinking excessively like this isn't a good thing..." Fengxi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. She said softly, "We're not related, so why should I meddle? Besides, Uncle Wen is here too. With him around, there shouldn't be any trouble..." Her beautiful face shone with a hint of nonchalance, as if she wasn't particularly concerned. Sikong Changfeng listened quietly to Fengxi's words. After a moment's silence, he nodded slightly, agreeing with her.
