    Default Who can abstain from drinking alcohol longer: Kiu Fung or Lee Chum Foon?

    It'd probably be futile to compare how much the two most prodigious alcohol drinkers of the Jin Yong and Gu Long universes could drink, so let's do something different.

    We all know that Kiu Fung and Lee Chum Foon really, really liked their alcohol, and could consume vast amounts of it. Neither warrior, however, was ever deprived of alcohol for too long in his respective novel.

    If the two of them were to have a contest to see who could abstain from drinking longer, who would break and give in first?

    Probably Li. Qiao Feng liked his alcohol and enjoyed it, but Li seems to need it to cope with the sadness in his life. Qiao Feng is like the guy in college, drinking heavily and happily 3-4 times a week, while Li is the old guy at the bar every day.

    Li and Xiao are not quite comparable. Li seemed to get drunk at a 'normal' rate while XF's drinking and tolerance level defies logic. I mean, his drinking ability is even more exaggerated than his martial arts.

    What about LHX then. While he drinks alot, the emphasis is placed on his love for alcohol, and how he uses it to cope with his melancholy.
