In a shabby small shop.
The boss was an old man, and Ye Yu did not know his full name. He called himself Lao Lin.
Old Lin was always drunk, and today was no exception. When Ye Yu came, he was still sleeping soundly.
The store was filled with the smell of decay and dust.
Although it was not clean, Ye Yu liked this kind of place, because no one would laugh at him.
"Old Lin, bring the wine!" Ye Yu tapped lightly on the counter. Only then did Old Lin open his sleepy eyes.
Ye Yu threw out the copper coins with great familiarity. Old Lin took it and then handed the wine jar to Ye Yu.
"It's good for you, kid. Remember to keep it for me if you can't finish it," Old Lin said dazedly. He took out a broken bowl and handed it to Ye Yu.
Ye Yu smiled. He took it and found a corner to sit down.
The strong wine was poured into his throat and was burning.
This was also the reason why he liked to come here. Without him, he would be drunk!
"Did you suffer another blow?" Old Lin asked with a smile.
"You're making it sound like I'm not going to suffer a blow one day." Ye Yu shook his head with a bitter smile.
Today, he, who was rather disappointing in the clan's martial dao test, was also at the third level of the Refinement Realm.
It was one thing to be seen as a monkey, but there were still people in the family who liked to speak dirty words, which made him very uncomfortable.
He had thought that this would be the greatest humiliation he had suffered today.
He didn't expect that the test would end. His girlfriend, Xiao Ziyue, who had been secretly in love with him for a long time, chose to break up with him.
In fact, Ye Yu understood that the so-called people were not from the same world. They were just excuses.
That woman turned around and went to Ye Lei. Was this the so-called world?
In a fit of anger, Ye Yu threw the token of love onto the ground. Only then did he come to this small tavern to relieve his boredom.
"Kid, you should always think about benefits. Why don't you say that it's a miracle that you're still alive?" Old Lin was always half-awake.
Ye Yu was slightly taken aback. "That's right, that's right."
Since he was a child, there was a doctor who said that he could not live past 12 years, but now he was already 17 years old.
It was better not to be greedy.
"I might even be able to survive because of your wine," Ye Yu joked.
But he didn't find that there was a flash of brilliance in Old Lin's eyes. "Of course, my wine is very good, not my blowing."
"She... abandoned me. She thinks I'm trash." Ye Yu sighed.
"I think she will regret it in the future." Old Lin's eyes sparkled with golden light.
"With your comfort, I feel much better in my heart."
"This is not comfort."
Ye Yu paused for a moment and then smiled bitterly. He did not continue this topic and said, "Perhaps... I won't be able to come and drink your wine in the future."
"You want to leave?" For the first time, Old Lin's smile disappeared and he walked out.
"I'm already seventeen years old. I've never participated in the Martial Arts Academy's test. Next year will be my last chance, but... perhaps the clan won't let me stay." Ye Yu sighed. "I'll be released. Perhaps... I'll never be able to return."
"By the way, prepare a few more jars of wine for me. Maybe I can still savor it."
"It's not a big problem." Old Lin hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't you wait for another try next year?"
Ye Yu smiled bitterly. He too.
"Don't you want to learn martial arts in the future?" Old Lin asked again.
Ye Yu's gaze was firm as he said, "No, I will definitely go down!"
Looking at the firmness of the young man in front of him, Old Lin was slightly stunned, and then he began to think.
"Come, I've been keeping this jar of wine for nearly 20 years. Let's not talk about anything else today. Let's get drunk."
"It's closed!"
The aroma of wine filled the air!
Ye Yu's index finger moved. He, who was a little drunk, immediately filled both himself and Old Lin.
"This wine... is green?"
Old Lin's drunken state had disappeared. "You're seeing things."
"..." Ye Yu smiled and didn't argue any further. He raised his head and said nothing.
In an instant, his throat seemed to be on fire, and his whole face was flushed.
"How is it? Is it okay?" Old Lin began to pour wine again. "Don't force yourself if you can't drink it."
Ye Yu's face turned red, and he was about to smoke. After a long while, he said, "I can drink!"
It was not a big deal that his martial arts talent was not as good as others', but he couldn't be despised for drinking.
One bowl after another...
She didn't know if she had drunk too much or not.
Ye Yu felt as if his bones were cracking and his qi and blood were boiling.
"Old... Old Lin, I... I'm drunk. I have to go home..." Ye Yu's tongue was a little big as he spoke. He stood up and swayed violently.
Old Lin did not stop him. Instead, he said, "Come back in a few days. I'll keep this wine for you."
"Okay..."
The cold wind was like a knife cutting her face. The falling snow was a little wet and cold.
Ye Yu's eyes blurred as he stumbled home. He stumbled and fell to the ground.
The turbid alcohol impacted his consciousness.
Ye Yu felt weak all over, but the heat in his body was boiling.
The heavy snow fell one after another, instantly covering Ye Yu's body.
A faint halo rose from his body and then disappeared.
All the pores in his body should have shrunk, but they were expanding.
If there were martial arts masters passing by, they would probably exclaim when they saw this.
It was because this looked like a complete transformation!
Two hours later!
Ye Yu, who was covered by the heavy snow, slowly woke up. Although his body was lying on the snow, it was not frozen.
She got up and flicked off the snowflakes on her body. She felt a little different, but she couldn't tell what was different.
After returning to the Ye Family and entering the inner gate, Ye Yu saw that Ye Lei was taking Xiao Ziyue to the front yard.
"Oh? Our Ye Family's good-for-nothing is here?" Ye Lei turned his head. When he saw Ye Yu, he smiled and said, "This is Miss Xiao Ziyue. Come and greet her!"
No one noticed that Xiao Ziyue had already lowered her head slightly, as if she was shy.
Ye Yu gave Xiao Ziyue a cold look and turned to leave.
Seeing this, Ye Lei's face turned cold. This good-for-nothing dared to ignore his words?
"Cousin, isn't it too rude to say a word? Those who don't know will think that we, the Ye Family, don't know the rules!" A slightly fat teenager blocked the way. "Or, are you not only a good-for-nothing, but also a mute?"
Ye Yu suddenly raised his head and stared at this collateral cousin, Ye Tianfu!
"Get out of the way!"
Seeing this, Ye Tianfu pushed Ye Yu hard. He thought that Ye Yu would fall because of his strong push, but he didn't expect that Ye Yu would only shake slightly.
"You want to use martial arts in the Ye Clan?" Ye Yu asked calmly.
Ye Tianfu's raised hand stiffened slightly. Although there was anger on his face, he really did not dare to make a move.
There were many rules in the Ye Family. One of them was not allowed to bully the weak.
Ye Tianfu was already eighteen, while Ye Yu was only seventeen. If he were to take action, he would be locked up for a hundred days.
Ye Tianfu snorted coldly and said, "You kid, just hide like a tortoise. I'll see what you'll do during the Yearly Sacrifice."
Ye Yu couldn't be bothered to waste time talking to him, so he left.
Ye Lei stopped Ye Tianfu, who still wanted to talk, and said, "What's the point of arguing with a good-for-nothing? It will be the Yearly Sacrifice soon. You have plenty of opportunities to take action!"
"Hehe, this time I'll beat him until he can't take care of himself and turn him into a real good-for-nothing!"
Xiao Ziyue and the rest of the Ye family disciples began to laugh.
