That’s right. Don’t tell me you don’t know how to play the drinking game.” Shi

Fenglan said eagerly.

“Yes… I do know a little, but..”

“No buts! If you want this Yu Ling Long, you have to beat me with the game.

Otherwise, don’t even think about it.”

At this time, Yu Manwen walked in from outside and said to Shi Fenglan, “As

the Order Master, it’s not good for you to play such a vulgar game witha

disciple from another order.”

“What does it matter? We’re just trying to have some fun.” After saying that, shi

Fenglan looked at Jiang Beiran, “How about it? Are you in or not? I’m a woman

of my word. If you don’t win against me in a game, don’t even think about

taking Yu Ling Long away.

“If that’s the case, how do we decide who’s the winner?

“Hal” Hearing that Jiang Beiran actually agreed, Yu Manwen hurriedly said,

“Beiran, why are you also messing around with Order Master! You…

Wuwuwuwuwuwu.” Just as Yu Manwen was still speaking, Shi Fenglan covered

her mouth.

Shi Fenglan then looked at Jiang Beiran and shouted, “Awesome! You little

fellow is really interesting. The rules are very simple. Whoever gets drunk first

will lose!”

Finger game or finger spoof and drinking alcohol were considered to be bound

together. Therefore, when Jiang Beiran heard that they were going to drink, he

was not surprised at all. He directly agreed, “Then we will do as you said.”

Okay, let’s go outside and play!” After saying that, Shi Fenglan dragged the

helpless Yu Manwen out of the room.

One table, two chairs, one jar of fine wine, two cups. The preparation required

or playing drinking game was simple and unflashy.

“Sigh..

Looking at the two people who had already sat at the “wine table,” Yu Manwen

sighed. She did not knovw how things had developed to this point.

After pouring herself a cup of wine, Shi Fenglan took out a rosewood pipe from

her cleavage under Jiang Beiran’s shocked gaze.

She skillfully lit it and took a deep breath. Shi Fenglan exhaled a cloud of

smoke and said, “You have to be careful. I’m very good at this.”

“Wow..” looking at Shi Fenglan’s intoxicated expression, Jiang Beiran couldn’t

help but exclaim.

“AlthoughI smoke, drink, and have tattoos, I’m a good Order Master.”

Outside the Mirror Garden, Liu Zijin, Eang Qjuyao, and the three Yu sisters

were walking towards the Mirror Garden together. They were still mumbling

“Ah! Sister Zijin, I can’t practice this Skimming Swallow no matter how hard I

try. Can you give me some pointers?”

“Oh! You mean Skimming Swallow? Im not very good at this move. Enforcer

Lin also said that this move is very difficult to practice.”

“Wu, wu, wu, what should I do then? Wu, wu, wu. I’ll definitely be punished in

the next test. Wu, wu, wu.”

“Don’t worry, don’t worry. There will definitely be a way.”

“Eh? Isn’t this the Mirror Garden? I didn’t expect that we would wander into

here. Why don’t we go in and ask the enforcer?”

“Okay, that’s a good idea”

After a scene of dialogue, Liu Zijin and the others came to the door of the

Mirror Garden “accidentally” and looked around together.

After a moment, the five of them showed disappointed expressions and then

retreated a hundred meters away without anyone noticing

“What’s going on? Why hasn’t Brother Jiang come out yet?” Yu Guishui asked in

puzzlement.

Yu Guimiao nodded after listening to her. “It’s been almost two hours. What on

Earth is senior brother doing inside?”

“Could he have left from another place?” Yu Guizhui guessed.

Liu Zijin shook her head. “It shouldn’t be. The disciples from other orders can

only access the Mirror Garden through the main gate. This is the rule.”

Seeing the other four were a little disheartened, Fang Qiuyao quickly cheered

them on. “Maybe Brother Jiang really has something important to do. Come on,

let’s hang in there for a while longer. Brother Jiang will come out soon. Also,

Miao Miao, your lines are getting better.”

“Hehe, is that so.” Yu Guimiao was a little embarrassed as she stroked her hair.

“I can’t compete with the other sisters. I’ll be more attentive next time.”

“Okay, then let’s do it again.”

Iwo!

“Five!

“Order Master, please drink” Jiang Beiran said as he put away one of his

fingers.

“Humph, don’t worry, rll drink!”

“Again

After finishing the cup of sugarcane wine, Shi Fenglan stepped on the chair

with her right foot and rolled up the long sleeve of her right hand, revealing

her tattoo on the arm.

The rules of finger spoof were actually very simple. Both parties stretched out

one hand at the same time. Then, they used their clenched fists and stretched

out one to five fingers to represent the numbers from zero to five.

At the same time, they shouted the numbers from zero to ten. If the numbers

represented by the fingers of both parties were the same as the numbers

shouted by a person, then that person would be considered to have won this

fist.

A simple example would be, if Jiang Beiran had extended three fingers in this

round and shouted seven, while Shi Fenglan had extended four fingers and

shouted six. Because the number of fingers added together was seven, Jiang

Beiran, who had shouted seven, had won.

Under such simple rules, even ordinary people would immediately familiarize

themselves with the rules after playing a few rounds. That was why playing

finger spoof had quickly become popular all over the country, becoming the

best game when drinking.

Jiang Beiran originally thought that since Order Master Shi loved to drink, she

must be an expert in this game. At least she would know play this game

skillfully.

But who would have thought that this Order Master had no skill at all, but she

still wanted to play drinking game. Things gone worst after she drank more

wine. She completely ignored the basic logic while playing.

For example, Shi Fenglan herself shouted “eight”, but she only stretched out

one finger. Even if Jiang Beiran stretched out five fingers, it didn’t add up to

eight. She was literally punishing herself so she could drink even more.

“Gulp… gulp..”

After another cup of sugarcane wine was finished, Shi Fenglan skillfully picked

up the wine jar and was about to pour another cup, but she found that there

was not a drop in it.

“Manwen, go and get another jar of wine!” Shi Fenglan shouted with her eyes

narrowed.

“Order Master, let’s call it a day. You’ve already drunk three jars.” After saying

that, Yu Manwen signaled Jiang Beiran with her eyes, asking him to help

persuade her.

Jiang Beiran was about to speak when he saw three options appear in front of

him.

[ Option 1: Help persuade Shi Fenglan to call it a day. Reward for completion:

Tian Lun Finger (earth grade low tier)

[Option 2: Quickly get Shi Fenglan drunk. Reward for completion: Single

Dragon Golden Rod (black grade low tier)]

[ Option 3: Keep playing with Shi Fenglan. Reward for completion: Random

Basic Attribute Points+1]

“F*ck… Why give me an earth grade item?

Jiang Beiran had originally wanted to help Yu Manwen to stop Shi Fenglan, but

now..

Jiang Beiran suddenly stood up, took out a bottle of pear blossom wine from

his storage ring, placed it on the table, and shouted, “Come, Order Master, let’s

continue!”
