“Wonderful” The drunkard applauded greatly, after pouring a big mouthful of wine into his mouth he then continued: “Wonderful This is wonderful, what are the other five taboos?”
“The place-taboo for drinkers When we drink, wesurrounded by flowers, bas, and pavilions are all good places to drink at A couple of friends, reciting poe wine ”
The drunkard’s eyes scanned around the surroundings, it was lush greenery all around, simple and unsophisticated Suddenly he beca: “Kid you know so Continue, please continue, what are the other taboos? Tell me them one by one”
“The titi, winter snow, under the crescent s What is it now? Where are ? Are there spring flowers? Winter snow? Are there layers of fog or crescent loomy and e can’t drink here”
“Kid—–” The drunkard felt the wine bottle in his hand was as heavy as thousand kilogra at Li Muyang, he said: “Kid you are the real wine i?”
“To drink because of a test, it would only be a glass of bitter wine If we drink noould spoil the good wine inside If the first drunkard of the world Liu Ling knows that a good bottle of asted like that, hoould he not be stae? ”
Drunkard discarded the wine bottle in his hand, stood up and straightened his clothes With a serious expression, he bowed to Li Muyang and repeatedly said: “Thank you Sir for dragging ht path to become a wine immortal No boy—–Sir you did not fail, but I did”
Li Muyang was rejoicing secretly, the knowledge that ca out deep inside his head became really useful
Then, he glanced at the drunkard and asked: “Wine elder, in that case, can I head up the mountain?”
“Of course” The drunkard answered without hesitation But then, he quickly stopped “No, no You can’t now”
Li Muyang looked puzzled, asking: “Mister, can I go or not?”
In front of the ic mirror of the Water Moon Cave, were severalthis scene with great interest

“Is that so”
Li Muyang pondered carefully for a while “ Just noine elder adopted a tough stance and would not budge The taboos of drinking, forcing one to drink, losing oneself in alcohol, incoherent talk, feigning drunkeness, escaping fron admiration You forced me to drink so I did not drink”

“Wonderful” The drunkard applauded enthusiastically Turning around in circles was the sa bowl of fine wine “Too wonderful for words”
