100 – Six taboos for drinkers
The drunkard’s age could not be deter hair was disheveled and his beard was full and grew long past his face, concealing almost half his face, only his muddy eyes and his alcohol-stained mouth could be seen
He was clad in a long gown that its original colour was not distinguishable, only its current ash-grey colour was seen
With a huge bottle of wine in his arms, he did not show any celebrity like style or looked like a skilled expert, reclining on a large stone with tiger stripes
Drunkard’s eyes blearily looked at Li Muyang as he pointed with his fingers and said: “Boy, come and drink with me I’ll let you up the mountain””
Li Muyang instantly understood that this is the wine obstacle of the four cardinal vices that senior Wuyou mentioned to him
Li Muyang felt as if his dreams were shattered, in his h is not well-known, there should still be a skilledup at this ti flohile reciting the faes and saints will be forgotten, only those who drink leave behind a reputation next to their name—–
Why did they find a sloppy lazy guy here for? Do you know he is destroying the a the Academy?
Also, this test is not that difficult, it’s easily understood with one glance
Li Muyang trotted over to the drunkard, looked at him in the eye and said: “I don’t want to drink, how can I head up the mountain? ”
Li Muyang’s heart condition was not too good when he was young He was not allowed to eat any irritating food Let alone wine, he was rarely allowed to drink tea
Therefore, he was not good at drinking
“This is the alcohol test, then it obviously it’s alcohol-related If you don’t drink how could you pass? Absurd Absolutely absurd” The drunkard was uni’s attitude
“Wine, wo within; whoever can ju bowed deeply at the drunkard: “I ask you to allow rateful”
In order to deceive him to let himself pass this test, he copied a verse froe others to drink
“You don’t have to drink, but you can’t insult alcohol What would you know about wine? Drunk but suddenly overco quietly to try to hear a sound of thunder, looking steadily he does not see theheat and biting cold, or the lust of desires or the greed for gain Overlooking everything of the world and the rivers bearing up the duckweeds This is the supreme state Only those at this state can then travel without restraint at Starry Sky The drunkard’s e describing the ‘wine, women, avarice and temper’ as four walls “Wine is an oar that deter or short How could wealth or other sort of filth be compared to it?”
The drunkard gulped downin a loud voice: “To drink but not be drunk is heroic, to be in love but not be controlled by it is highly disciplined, if ill-gotten gains is taken, don’t take it, and to have feelings yet not be angry Boy, you follow the rules too much, which causes you to fail instead This o elsewhere and think of other ways”
Li Muyang’s brows furrowed
Senior Wuyou only told him he will need to pass the four cardinal vices tests but he did not mention what exactly would be tested
Is it assessing the students’ drinking capacity or assessing the students’ ability in adapting to changes?
Or is it assessing the accu the quality of wine or the personality of the student?
It is said that the quality of wine is the same as the character of a person Does that mean the drunkard was able to deter?
He did not want to drink, so in his eyes he has a bad personality?
After he borrowed a verse of Buddhist Monk Fo Yin’s poepo, Fo Yin’s close friend This proves the eable——
Li Muyang was deep in thought, looking blank for a moment
The drunkard took anotherconfident and at ease
His lips s this bottle of wine
After a shortsideways out of the corners of his eyes, shouting: “Boy, are you going to drink or not? If not then get out of here, don’t stand in frontmy view You think tooworse, now they recruit anyone It daes the school’s reputation”
“It’s not that I won’t drink, but I don’t want to drink” Li Muyang let out a light sigh “I have six taboos with drinking”
The drunkard also has a desire to learn Especially any knowledge to do ine, he illing to understand more He calls hi about wine?
The drunkard’s bleary eyes i intently: “There are six taboos?”
“First, the people-taboo for drinkers When drinking, we first have to look at what kind of people we’re drinking with Elegant, brave, frank, free of worldly concerns, friends, old friends, beautiful people, and capable people These eight types of people are all acceptable to drink with Not just to drink but to get drunk with But wine elder——-You are sloppy and not elegant, you do not have the characteristic of a hero, you atteories: free of worldly concerns, close friends, old friends, a beautiful or capable person, you are also neither of the to do with each other, why should we drink together? Even if we drink there’s no joy, so what’s the point? ”
