The road was covered with white grasses, and they were leaving the mountain with steps on snow.

Ye Que was slowly walking in the small path of Mount Mei, with a series of footprints leaving behind and a girl in white on his back. The sun shined on the body Red Bean warmly. With one side warmed by Ye Que's body, and the other side warmed by sunshine, as well as some jolt while walking, Red Bean fell asleep.

Listening to the snoring sounds near his ear, Ye Que slowed down and kept his body as stable as possible. It seemed that he subconsciously did not want to wake up Red Bean. The snow was deep on the ground, and the knees had been submerged by the deepest point. But for Ye Que, it was not difficult to walk.

As the temperature rose, the snow on the mountain road began to slowly melt, and the top layer had already melted into condensation like crystal.

He had been walking down the mountain along the path from the mountainside. After he passed the mountain valley and the foot of the mountain, he finally saw a stone monument which was carved with two big characters on its surface, "Mount Mei".

The lower right corner of the stone tablet was also engraved with three small words, You Prefecture North.

Looking at the stone tablet, Ye Que finally figured out his current position, that he had already reached the northernmost state of the Tang, and was now at the foot of Mount Mei, north of You Prefecture.

After he calculated the distance from You Prefecture to Luoyang, as well as his current possible position, and then looked at Red Bean on his back, Ye Que thought that it must take days to return to Luoyang.

After leaving Mount Mei, the snow on the ground was obviously much less. It seemed that the snow in the mountain was really heavier than out of the mountain. A gust of mountain wind blew, and a small mass of snow from the coniferous tree tip drifted along the road. The snow drifted across the path and then fell on the shoulder of Ye Que and the lips of Red Bean.

The snow slowly melted, flowing along the lips of Red Bean to the shoulders of Ye Que.

The head on his shoulder was slightly moving.

Red Bean woke up. She squinted at Ye Que and patted on his head. "It's snowing again?"

It seemed that the snow had chilled Red Bean.

"No, we just get out of the mountain. You can sleep for a while." Ye Que held the long legs of Red Bean and lifted them up gently. It seemed that he wanted her to sleep more comfortably.

"Oh."

Maybe she had not even awoken. Red Bean just responded in a confused way. Then her head fell askew on Ye Que's shoulder.

"It's wet?"

Her cheeks felt cold again. Red Bean shook her head and raised her head up. Then she struggled to open one eye and took a look. Then she saw a pool of water stains. looking at its location and shape, as well as the appearance of the water stains, it really looked like saliva. She quickly touched her lips, and they were a little wet as well. Her cheeks instantly turned red.


"He is carrying you, but you fall asleep on his back. That's OK. But you drooled on his back! You are really brilliant. Don't you feel shameless? If he knows that, it will truly embarrass you!" Red Bean despised herself inwardly. Then she reached out and gently wiped the water stain, it seemed that she wanted to wipe it off.

"What happened?" Feeling the movement from the shoulders, Ye Que stopped and asked.

"Nothing, nothing. Keep walking. My hand itched just now." Red Bean patted Ye Que's head and then said softly. The little girl, who had never deceived others before, could lie without face blushing after a few days' staying with Ye Que.

"Don't pat my head!"

"If your hands itched, you can hit yourself!"

"Hit your face, hands or arm. You can hit whatever you want, as long as you don't hit others."

"What's your problem? Like to hit others' head! Last time in the illusory formation fog of the Imperial Mausoleum, you hit me with a punch, and I can still remember. Be careful, I will pay you back. The wind and water will take turns, and now the person who lost the cultivation base is you!"

Ye Que rebuked Red Bean severely and even threatened to hit her on the head. But before he had finished, he got another punch in the back of his head.

"Just keep walking, you are too noisy."

"You hit my head again!"

Ye Que shook his back vigorously and almost threw Red Bean out. Then, without any surprise, he got another punch in the head. Ye Que wanted to shake harder, but before he could shake for the second time, the third punch came up. Although each punch was not strong, she was so arrogant!

No more words, no more back shaking, Ye Que moved forward a few steps obediently. Seeing that Ye Que was obedience, Red Bean snorted proudly. Then she wiped the water stains on his shoulders again without leaving any trace, and changed another side to go back to sleep.

But before her head could lie down, a sharp pain came from the root of her leg. Ye Que pinched her hard with his hands which were holding Red Bean's legs!

After pinching her, before Red Bean could fight back, Ye Que suddenly began to speed up. Originally, he was just walking slowly, and suddenly he began to run. A breeze blew along the roadside, and the snow on the tree fell to the ground. As for the girl, in her present condition, she couldn't be arrogant any more. The only thing she could do was holding Ye Que's neck tightly with two hands.

The whistling wind blew across the cheeks.

Red Bean's hair on temples rippled with the wind, drifted into the air and fell on the shoulder, touching Ye Que's forehead.

It was itchy.

At noon,

the sun was shining high in the sky.

They finally got out of Mount Mei. At the end of the path, there were three roads, each of which seemed to be winding without ends. A village was built at the edge of the fork. The fork was the village entrance. Next to it was a wine shop with Tusu banner. There were thick curtains hanging at the entrance of the wine shop. A few jujube horses were tied near the manger.

Ye Que woke up Red Bean who was sleeping again. "It's already noon, wake up, don't sleep any more. Come down and eat something."

After shaking her for about ten times, Red Bean stretched her arms and woke up with a big yawn.

"Eating?"

"What have you hunted?"

Red beans subconsciously thought that Ye Que would roast meat for her. These days in the mountain, Ye Que basically roasted all the living creatures in Mount Mei, from chickens to black bears, Red Bean had eaten them all over. It also nurtured her appetite, which had almost reached the state of no meat no joy.

"This time I will take you to taste the crafts of others. There is a wine shop in front."

"By the way, have you ever drunk?"

Ye Chi patted Red Bean, motioning that she should stop leaning on him and come down to have a walk. Now they were not on a mountain road. It was not that hard to walk.

"Drink?"

"Never. Is it delicious?" Red Bean were puzzled and asked.

"Drinking wine and eating meat. Good wine deserves good meat. Since you like meat so much, you will definitely like to drink. Try it. Aren't you going to have a journey in the Human World? This is also a kind of practice. You have to try everything in the Human World. This is a real journey. Just challenging those practitioners is not a perfect practice." Ye Que explained, and then took the lead in the shop.

He lifted the thick curtain and fluttered a fine layer of ash. Fanning the ash with his hand, Ye Que scanned the lobby and shouted loudly, "Waiter, bring up the strongest Tusu liquor and the best mutton for me."

Red Bean also curiously scanned the lobby, and then saw half of the seven or eight tables were sat by people.

Ye Que and Red Bean found a secluded place to sit down. At the meantime, the waiter brought all the liquor and meat that they needed to them.

There was a pot full of Tusu liquor, a whole plate of mutton leg meat, and two bowls of mutton miscellaneous soup for present. Just after the heavy snow, it was freezing cold. Drinking a bowl of mutton miscellaneous soup could warm the body. The remote wine shop near the You Prefecture North was not richer than in Luoyang, but the advantage was the honesty.

Tusu was the favorite drink of You Prefecture people. You Prefecture was located in the north. The weather went cold very fast. Naturally, they liked to drink this kind of liquor to warm their stomach. In addition, You Prefecture was adjacent to the grassland, which was rich in mutton, so the mutton here was delicious and cheap. Tusu with mutton from grassland and a bowl of mutton miscellaneous soup were extremely delicious in this place.

Without paying attention to Red Bean, Ye Que ate them first. After so many days, it was hard for him not to serve others now, he naturally should enjoy it.

He took a mouthful of Tusu wine and ate the meat. He smacked his lips and said, "If that's not enough, ask more. Remember, meat always tastes better with wine."

Looking at the satisfied expression on Ye Que's face, Red Bean grabbed a piece of mutton and stuffed it into her mouth. After chewed twice in her mouth, her eyebrows wrinkled, and she almost spat it out. "It's not as good as you did."

"I have told you that this meat tastes better with wine, just eating meat alone is nothing special." Ye Que said and gently sipped a drink. The spirits passed through his intestines like being burned with the fire. And his throat felt spicy.

Reluctantly picking up the cup, Red Bean smelled it first, and then she said curiously, "Can such a smelling thing tastes good?"

"After you drink. No drink, no talk!"

Closing eyes and frowning, Red Bean simply drunk a whole cup of Tusu. Her action was domineering!

Just after drinking, Red Bean's eyes almost stared out directly. She pointed at Ye Que with one hand, while the other was blowing hard at her mouth, and her tongue was spitting out. She blew at her mouth for twice and then began rubbing her chest. Even Ye Que would hesitate to drink a whole cup of Tusu. No matter how high a practitioner's cultivation base was, he or she couldn't get rid of the human condition unless he or she broke into the Apocalypse Realm and got rid of the human body.

The practitioners were not gods. They could be drunken and starved. They needed to eat cures while being poisoned. They only had the ability to surpass ordinary people in some aspects, but they did not surpass the category of 'human'.

"Do you dare to lie to me?" Red Bean pointed at Ye Que and said angrily, "You said this is delicious?"

"You are a big liar!"

"Is it not good?" Ye Que pointed at the mutton on the table. "Then you can try to eat the mutton and check out if the taste is the same as before."

"I won't believe you anymore." Red Bean turned her white of eyes up and said, "You go out and hunt for me now. I want to eat the meat you roast yourself."

Paying no attention on Red Bean, Ye Que continued to drink the wine and eat meat, and finally sipped the mutton soup.

Red beans couldn't stand with hungry now. She suffered terribly if he didn't eat for half a day. Looking at Ye Que eating and drinking, she couldn't bear it. And after a while, the wine in her mouth began to generate fragrance, like sweet after bitterness.

In a short time, the first pot of Tusu liquor almost all went into Ye Que's stomach, and even the mutton on the table was mostly eaten.

When Ye Que began to smack his lips again, Red Bean grabbed the wine pot and poured it directly into her cup.

The pot was reversed, but only a few drops were poured out.

Patting the table, Red Bean waved her hand and shouted, "That guy, one more pot of this wine."

After a pause, she shouted again, "and one more sheep's meat."
