There are roughly two theories about the origin of alcohol bug.

One is the naturally occurring Gu worms in the world, which are similar to bookworms, rice worms, and silkworms. However, wine worms grow in fine wines and feed on the smell of wine.

Second, in ancient times, there was a respected man who was addicted to alcohol, so he used the poison method to refine the wine worm. From now on, every time he drinks alcohol, he only needs to throw the wine worm into the water and soak it.

Fine wine.

Yu Lie is not an alcoholic, and he doesn't care whether the wineworm can brew fine wine.

What surprised him was that this thing also had a function: "It can assist Zuo's cultivation"!

The wine bug can swallow water and brew it into pure wine. When it is used on the human body, it can swallow the Taoist's true energy and refine it into pure wine.

During this process, the wine bug can assist in polishing the Taoist's true energy and eliminating the fire. It is especially suitable for use by Taoists who have just made a breakthrough.

As for Yu Lie, he had just broken through to become a mid-level Taoist disciple, and the fire in his body was still insufficient. It was the time when he needed to polish his skills.

This polishing process, if calculated normally, will take at least one year. After one year, the true energy can be stabilized before further cultivation or transformation can be carried out.

Even if Yu Lie borrows the poisonous gas from the Purple Mountain and can use the poisonous power to speed up, it will still take about three months at least.

And this effort cannot be omitted. To a certain extent, it is more important than the growth of new Qi. Because it is through such polishing again and again that Taoists can make the Qi transform and have a solid foundation.

In Taoist temple.

Yu Lie was lying on the wine vat, staring at the wine bug floating at the bottom of the wine vat.

Thoughts were racing in his mind, and he thought in surprise: "I didn't expect that there was this strange thing in Taoist Priest Zi Zhu's view. This thing appeared in front of me, and it is just right for my use!"

Yu Lie suddenly realized:

"Good Taoist Master, good Taoist Master, it seems that this junior has wrongly blamed you. Although you are poor, you are poor and strong, and you will never treat your disciples badly.

To be able to leave such treasures in the temple is so considerate for the younger generation!"

It seems that his future master is by no means an evil person, but a great good person.

The next moment, Yu Lie stretched out his hand and caught the wine bug, intending to keep it for himself.

However, after catching the little wine bug and feeling the bug wriggling and struggling between his fingers, Yu Lie's eyes hesitated again.

If he thought wrong, the Purple Candle Girl did not leave the wine bug to him specifically, so wouldn't his move today become a stolen treasure and violate a taboo?

Just thinking about the subtle effects of the wine worm, Yu Lie felt itchy in his heart again and was reluctant to put the wine worm back.

In the end, he gritted his teeth and decided to take it for his own use:

"How can something between master and disciple be called plagiarism?"

Yu Lie muttered in his heart:

"And as long as I don't take the wine insect away from the Taoist temple, even if Taoist Priest Zi Zhu discovers it, I will just borrow her wine insect to practice. It will have no impact on the insect. Even if this behavior is wrong, it should be

Even sin does not lead to death."

With the idea firmly in mind, Yu Lie, holding the little wine bug in his arms, found a suitable place to sit down cross-legged in the middle of the large array of wine jars, and was about to start practicing.

Time does not wait for him. When Zi Zhu Nu Dao comes back, Jiu Chong will be taken back.

I saw Yu Lie cross-legged and adjusted. He closed his eyes slightly, raised his head, opened his mouth, put the wine bug into his mouth, and held it under the tip of his tongue.

The main method of using wine worms to assist cultivation is to take them orally, and during practice, you need to tap your teeth and shake the foam to stimulate the body of the wine worms to suck up the Taoist's true energy, and then feed it back out.

In this way, between inhaling and spitting out, the Taoist and the wine bug form a loop, and both can benefit.

However, if it is swallowed and used in the stomach pouch, the effect will be better.

Because there is another little-known secret in the second origin of the wine bug.

It is said that the source of wine worm refining is actually the "roundworm" in the human body. It wanders in the intestines and stomach, swallows the residue, and brews the smell of wine. Later, a Taoist dewormed the worms and left the body. Unable to harm his life, he stopped refining

It was placed in a gourd and became the original wine bug.

Just to take the wine worm into the belly, the Taoist needs to refine the wine worm and imprint it with his own true energy, so that it can be put into the belly with peace of mind.

The wine bug in Yu Lie's hand does not belong to him, so in order to avoid violating the taboo, it is better not to use this method.

Now.

As soon as Yu Lie put the wine bug in his mouth, he felt that his breath turned into the smell of alcohol.

The saliva in his mouth was also flowing gurglingly. As soon as it came into contact with the little thing at the bottom of his tongue, it turned into fine wine, which was poured down his neck and stomach without swallowing, making his whole body feel dizzy and dazed.

"It's really a good thing."

Suddenly, Yu Lie sighed in his heart, thinking that he shouldn't practice, but should enjoy the taste of this fine wine.

Fortunately, he was determined and immediately collected his energy. He took the initiative to adjust his breath and shake the foam, feeding the zhenqi to the wine worms at the bottom of his tongue. Then he wiggled his tongue and squeezed the purified zhenqi out of the little guy's body.

There is no sluggishness in this process. Almost as soon as Yu Lie enters the true energy, the little guy can breathe out the tempered true energy so smoothly.

This surprised Yu Lie, who asked in shock: "What grade of wine bug is this? Is it also the sixth grade?"

With a thought in his mind, he tried to take out a spiritual stone from his sleeve and put it in his mouth, letting the wine bug swallow the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone together, and then transferred it to him.

As a result, while the wine worm was swallowing the true energy, it was also willing to accept the spiritual energy. It easily polished the two into one piece, and then transferred them all to the remaining columns.

"This can really be like this!" Faced with such a scene, Yu Lie was overjoyed.

In this way, he is not only using the wine bug to polish his true energy, but also using the other party to breathe in his spiritual energy.

During this process, not only will Yu Lie's true energy not be depleted, but it will also be replenished from the spiritual energy, growing stronger bit by bit.

The thought popped up in Yu Lie's mind again: "Don't miss this opportunity!"

With his eyes closed, he took out a transmission talisman from his sleeve and sent it to the great hall high in the sky, so that the palace could transfer his transmission talisman to the ground to inform Luo Sen and others.

After explaining his whereabouts, Yu Lie was immersed in the "double cultivation" with Liquor Chong.

time flies,

One hour, two hours.

One day, two days, three days...

The true energy in Yu Lie's body was polished at a speed unimaginable to ordinary people.

In just seven days and nights, he had almost polished the zhenqi that originally took a year to polish. Afterwards, he would just have to check and fill in the gaps by himself, which would take another half a month at most, and then he would be fine.

After seven days, Yu Lie mainly used the wine worms to absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stones, and then converted it into the true energy in his own body.

This process lasted for more than ten days, causing the Zhenqi Dao in Yu Lie's body to increase from about twenty-one years to twenty-two years in one breath.

The work done in these ten days is equivalent to the work done by ordinary people in one year, which really shocked Yu Lie.

Every time he took a break and took antidote pills, he would sigh in his heart: "The wine bug is really a strange insect in the world!"

But after more than half a month passed, although the Purple Candle Female Daoist had never returned, Yu Lie was faced with two embarrassing situations and could no longer continue to practice heartily.

Firstly, due to the previous breakthrough, Yu Lie had consumed a lot of money, and the few remaining spiritual stones in his bag had been exhausted after helping him to rapidly improve his Taoism for a year.

He also has a way to solve this problem. He can release Ya Ba and let him go to the shop and get the spirit stone.

But the second situation is difficult to solve.

That's because he has been practicing with the wine bug for a long time. Not only is his breath filled with the smell of wine, but even the pores on his body are emitting the smell of wine, and his whole body seems to be pickled.

.

In fact, Yu Lie has been drinking for more than half a month, drinking day and night. If he hadn't practiced the Poison Kung Fu himself, he has a body that is invulnerable to all poisons. In order to resist the poisonous gas on the Purple Mountain, he would take a few detoxification pills every day.

He couldn't hold it any longer.

But now, Yu Lie finally couldn't hold on any longer, and the drunkenness was even more intense than he imagined.

I saw Yu Lielian sitting cross-legged unsteadily. He was leaning against a wine vat with a flushed face, his eyelids were drooping, and his right hand was dangling into his sleeve, and he finally took out a pill.

, struggling to put it into his mouth.

As a result, there were stars in his eyes, and he murmured: "I, how come one, two, three, six, seven, eight... fingers grew out of one of my hands."

As soon as his eyes blurred, he emptied the elixir and threw it on the outer wall of the wine tank.

There was a snapping sound.

Yu Lie fell to the ground.

The alcohol accumulated over the past ten days rushed to his head, causing even his iron-hardened mind to break into pieces, pass out, and become unconscious.

Whoosh!

In the huge and strange Taoist temple, there was only a slight snoring sound for a while, stirring up the purple mist that spread around.

Because Yu Lie fell down and fell asleep, his sleeping appearance was really bad, his mouth was open and his saliva was flowing out.

Fortunately, due to the existence of wine worms in the mouth, the little guy swims in his mouth and swallows his saliva, turning it into mellow and fragrant wine. It looks crystal clear, not sticky, and reduces the amount of alcohol.

Level of elegance.

"ah."

Suddenly, in addition to snoring, Yu Lie's mouth and nose also heard a slight babbling sound, as if he was talking in his sleep.

"Dumb."
