And the Dragon Boat Festival has arrived as scheduled.
Xu Xian sprinkled realgar powder around the house to prevent snakes, which made both Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing feel uncomfortable.
Plus the Dragon Boat Festival is here, and the heat begins.
As snakes that like shade, they don't like hot environments. This almost killed Xiaoqing and Bai Suzhen.
He was almost killed by Xu Xian.
But that's not all. As soon as the Dragon Boat Festival came, Xu Xian took out the realgar wine and said, "Come on, madam, the Dragon Boat Festival is here. Let's have a drink together later."
The natural thing to drink is realgar wine.
This was a bitter experience for Bai Suzhen and the others, who looked ugly. The weather was already hot, and with the presence of realgar powder, adding realgar wine added fuel to the fire.
Extremely tragic.
As soon as the heat comes, the snake naturally wants to show its original shape, and then go to the water to soak for a while, feeling that it is more comfortable.
Therefore, Xu Xian's behavior was nothing more than adding fuel to the fire, making Xiaoqing and Bai Suzhen extremely uncomfortable.
Xu Xian's words made Bai Suzhen's face stiffen, and she became a little unnatural, "Official, you don't have to drink. You also know that I can't drink too much. It's not good to drink too much. Let's just eat something delicious to celebrate."
She didn't want to reveal her true identity in front of Xu Xian, otherwise her identity as a snake demon would be exposed.
When Xu Xian heard Bai Suzhen's tactful refusal, he immediately began to persuade her, "Madam, you don't understand this. As the saying goes: a glass of wine after a meal will make you live to ninety-nine. As the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, let's have a good drink.
Have a drink to celebrate.
What's more, I had met Master Fahai from Jinshan Temple before. He told me that I had recently encountered a snake demon and that my body was filled with evil spirit. He also said that I could drink realgar wine to relieve it.
Therefore, for the safety of my wife and you, I still have to drink this realgar wine."
Bai Suzhen: "..."
She suddenly felt that Xu Xian was a bit too persistent and stubborn.
You must insist on drinking realgar wine.
aside.
Xiaoqing also looked depressed and couldn't help but glared and said: "Xu Xian, my sister and I don't like drinking. Do you have to force us to drink?"
Xu Xian was not angry when he heard this. He seemed to have gotten used to it and said with a smile: "Xiao Qing, how can this be said to be forced? Drinking realgar wine helps to relax the muscles and activate blood circulation, which is good for your health. It also helps to exorcise demons."
, there are many benefits.”
"Forehead……"
For a moment, what Xu Xian said made Xiaoqing not know how to answer, and she looked a little nervous and stunned for no reason.
"Xu Xian, a nerd and fool, can actually be so eloquent?"
When did this poor and pedantic guy learn to be so eloquent? She actually didn't come back to her senses.
Is it really true that we should look at each other with admiration after not seeing each other for three days?
Then Wu Xia Amon?
She thought this was a bit magical, and continued: "Xu Xian, if you want to drink, just drink it yourself. My sister and I don't want to drink realgar wine anyway."
Bai Suzhen also nodded slightly, expressing her agreement with what Xiaoqing said.
Unexpectedly, Xu Xiandao said: "Xiaoqing, you are wrong again. Since you know the benefits, why don't you drink it? As a husband, I think I should tell my wife to get better and better. Don't you?"
You know medical skills, so Xiaoqing, you don’t understand the benefits of this."
Xiaoqing: "..."
Xu Xian's few words left Xiaoqing speechless and she didn't know what to say to refute him.
What a Xu Xian, he was so eloquent, Xiao Qing was a little shocked for a while.
Originally.
It's okay to drink some realgar wine on Dragon Boat Festival, but it's different for Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing as snake demons.
What if the heat reveals his true form? Wouldn't it scare Xu Xian to death?
This day.
The Dragon Boat Festival has arrived.
"Come on, madam, I'll fill it up for you. Let's have a drink together." Xu Xian quickly poured Bai Suzhen some realgar wine and kept persuading her.
Bai Suzhen drinks alcohol.
Xu Xian knew this, so she couldn't refuse, for fear of affecting the relationship between the two parties.
Xiaoqing had no intention of drinking. Anyway, there was no relationship between her and Xu Xian, so she just refused.
at this time.
Ever since.
After some persuasion from Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen finally nodded and said: "Guanren, then... then I will just drink a small amount."
Xu Xian, who was afraid that his wife would not drink at all, nodded to this and thought to himself: "I will try to persuade my wife later. I am doing this for her own good. After all, realgar wine can drive away demons."
Definitely good stuff.
Master Fa Hai who came from Jinshan Temple would never lie to him. Realgar wine can definitely drive away snake monsters.
Xu Xian firmly believed in this.
After a glass of wine.
Bai Suzhen originally didn't plan to continue drinking, but Xu Xian said again: "Madam, this drink is a toast to the difficulties we have had in getting married for so many years."
"..."
Bai Suzhen suddenly looked embarrassed. Should she drink this wine or not?
Turning her head to look at Xu Xian's sincere and serious expression, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "Well, this is the last drink. The official really loves me, otherwise he wouldn't be like this."
After drinking this cup.
Xu Xian said seriously again: "Madam, thank you for taking care of me for so long. I, Xu Xian and Xu Hanwen, can't repay you. Come, let's drink this cup together."
"..." Bai Suzhen.
time.
She was a little confused. When did Xu Xian start saying such nice things? She couldn't help but be a little shocked.
In Bai Suzhen's impression, Xu Xian is not a talkative person, just like Xiaoqing said, he is a stupid scholar.
But today she felt that Xu Xian was a little special.
Very good at talking.
He used different methods to persuade her to drink, and it seemed that he would not stop trying to persuade her to get drunk. This was a common trend.
After drinking the realgar wine, Bai Suzhen only felt hot all over her body. As a snake, she likes the cold and the cold, so this made her extremely uncomfortable.
So he immediately said: "Master, I can't bear to drink, so why don't you stop drinking? Anyway, we are happy and celebrating today. What do you think?"
She really wanted to see Xu Xian nod.
but.
Instead, Xu Xian shook his head and said, "Madam, today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and you and I have nothing important to do. It's a rare occasion to celebrate. Even if you get drunk, it's okay. I'm not afraid at home."
Bai Suzhen actually wanted to say that this was not a question of whether she was afraid or not, but a question of not being able to continue drinking.
She was really afraid of revealing her true colors. How could she explain it to Xu Xian when the time came?
After all, she is a demon.
What if Xu Xian can't accept it, what should she do?
These questions flashed through Bai Suzhen's mind. During the Dragon Boat Festival, it is really not appropriate for the snake demon living in Suzhou City to continue drinking.
The two cups she just had were made possible by her thousands of years of practice. If she had been more ferocious, she might not have been able to suppress them.
After all, the calories in realgar wine are quite scary.
After listening to Xu Xian's words, Bai Suzhen suddenly felt bitter, "The official loves me so much, I...should I risk my life to accompany the gentleman for a while?"
She felt that Xu Xian did this because he loved her.
After all, Xu Xian didn't know that Bai Suzhen was a snake demon, didn't know that she couldn't drink realgar wine, and didn't know her various origins.
After thinking of this, Bai Suzhen nodded and said, "Guardian, I will only drink the last glass. What do you think?"
"Okay." Xu Xian agreed.
But after a glass of wine, Xu Xian began to think about how to persuade him to drink.
then.
I don't know when, but Xu Xian actually persuaded Bai Suzhen to drink at least a dozen glasses of realgar wine.
It might not be much if it's an ordinary wine, but realgar wine is a bit special.
As a result, Bai Suzhen didn't know what she was drinking until later, but she couldn't even hold Xiaoqing aside, so she had to let her drink.
