Han Kongque calculated it carefully before saying: "Five minutes! Can you do it? If not, then I will go down by myself."
"Okay." Chen Jiayi took out a few convenience bags, pierced them into his mouth, and tied them to his belt, so that he could stay there for five minutes.
Han Kongque didn't say anything. When he was ready, he said to Cai Siming: "Wait for us here. It shouldn't take us long to come back. If we don't come back in more than an hour, ask someone to come."
Digging down from here, there is a passage thirty meters below that leads to a cellar."
After Han Kongque finished explaining, he jumped directly into the river, but he did not submerge in the water, but stood half on the water, with only his knees submerged in the water.
"Holy crap, what kind of ability do you have?" Chen Jiayi was shocked when he saw it.
"Hurry up, if you attract other people's attention, you'll be in trouble." Han Kongque had already seen a vehicle passing by in the distance.
When Chen Jiayi came to him, Han Kongque quickly submerged into the water and swam toward the center of the river. When he reached a place, Han Kongque grabbed Chen Jiayi's hand, and then used his magical power to lift all the mud at the bottom of the river.
go out.
A huge bluestone was exposed at the bottom of the river, and on the bluestone, there was a dark steel plate. Han Peacock looked at the steel plate carefully. When several small holes were pushed through the steel plate, turning the steel plate into a sieve, Han Peacock came from one side.
Lift up the steel plate.
Since the steel plate was made into a sieve shape, the steel plate was no longer suppressed by the water pressure at this time, and it was easily lifted up by Han Peacock.
Han Peacock quickly got into the cave under the steel plate. Chen Jiayi was not slow either.
After entering, Han Peacock immediately put down the steel plate. The two people quickly walked through the darkness.
Chen Jiayi could not see anything at this time. He could only be pulled by Han Peacock and swim in the water.
This depressing movement in the darkness frightened Chen Jiayi.
If he couldn't get out of the water quickly, he would never survive. In this dark water, he didn't even know the direction. If Han Kongque left him alone at this time, he would definitely die.
So Chen Jiayi was very scared at this time. Han Kongque accidentally lost him. He didn't know if Han Kongque could touch him here.
Just when Chen Jiayi was worrying about gains and losses, he was led out of the water by Han Kongque, and Chen Jiayi breathed heavily.
Han Kongque said: "If that mouse can survive here, we should be able to do the same."
"Fortunately, there is air. If we had come up a little later, my lungs would have exploded." Chen Jiayi said after regaining his composure.
"Let's go and see that mouse's treasure." Han Kongque pulled Chen Jiayi in one direction with great interest.
"You didn't bring a light?" Chen Jiayi asked.
Han Kongque said: "I brought it, but I won't need it at this time. It would be bad if it shocked our children."
"Sure enough, it's wine. I can already smell the aroma of wine." Chen Jiayi said.
Han Kongque said: "It should have been our little friend who opened the door and leaked it."
Walking into a larger cave, Han Peacock looked at the surrounding environment and saw some heavy wooden doors appearing on the surrounding walls.
"Is this made of oak?" Han Peacock said, touching the wooden door.
Chen Jiayi said: "I can't see it, but oak barrels are the best way to preserve fine wine."
Han Kongque said: "This should be a secret wine cellar."
Of course, if there is a door, they are not afraid of disturbing the big mouse inside. So Han Peacock finally turned on the light and followed the light. The two of them looked behind a wooden door.
Behind the wooden door, there were large wooden barrels. From what they could see, to the invisible darkness, there were all such large wooden barrels.
"Is it really a wine cellar? If it is a wine cellar, is it necessary to hide it so secretly?" Chen Jiayi followed Han Kongque and walked in.
The two men shook the large wooden barrels and found that there was liquid inside.
Chen Jiayi pulled out a cork from a large wooden barrel with familiarity, and a strong aroma of wine spread instantly.
"Hurry up and block it, don't disturb our children." Han Peacock said.
Chen Jiayi blocked the barrel and said, "It is indeed a fine wine."
"It should be fruit wine." Han Kongque said, smelling the aroma of the wine.
"It should be red wine." Chen Jiayi said.
Han Kongque said: "As long as the red wine is not deliberately stripped of sugar, it is a good wine."
"If it's old, there will be people who are free to take off sugar at that time."
The two people checked one by one. Although they only looked at the place they passed, all the barrels here were filled with something.
"There are so many wooden barrels here, and they all contain mellow, fragrant, sweet and sour fruit wine." Han Peacock smiled.
"This leads to the next level." Chen Jiayi woke up Han Kongque who was deep in thought.
Going down a stone step to the second floor, there are thousands of large wine jars inside, all of which are fine wines that are even more fragrant and have been aged for at least twenty years.
"The wines here are at least forty years old." Chen Jiayi smiled broadly.
On the third floor, there are thousands of small wine jars containing forty-year-old fine wine.
On the fourth floor, there are only 300 gourds. Each gourd has a seal label, describing in detail what the gourd wine is made from, what its secrets are, how many years it has been aged, etc.
wait.
After walking out of the fourth floor, a wooden door was opened again. Behind the wooden door, there was a very wide space, about ten acres in size. The ground was paved with bluestone, with uneven circular stone platforms on the ground.
There are ponds that are either round or square, deep or shallow.
The various ponds are connected to each other by twists and turns of ditches. Between the ponds and ditches, brightly colored jade nectar, as clear as jade, and mellow and fragrant jade liquid flows.
At the bottom of the ponds and ditches, the stones used as river stones are actually extremely smooth oval-shaped fluorescent stones. These fluorescent stones are shining brightly, and they reflect colorful lights from the water, which looks terrible.
pretty.
Beside each pond and ditch, there are small trees made of jade. The small trees are also covered with fluorescent stones, making each of these small trees like a small sun, shining on the surrounding area.
Through fluorescence, Han Peacock saw that under those small trees, there were many spiritual elixirs planted: ginseng, polygonatum, jade lotus, polygonum multiflorum, meat mushroom...
And on those uneven, large or small round platforms, there are gourds and jade bottles placed one after another.
Although the gourds and jade vases are plugged with stoppers, so you can't see what's inside, and you can't detect the smell inside, but even if you think about it with your toes, you know that those gourds and jade vases must contain high-quality goods.
of fine wine.
"This is a natural medicine pool." Chen Jiayi looked at the pool with bright eyes and said.
Han Peacock said: "That big rat must be drunk, it's lying over there."
Chen Jiayi said: "With these conditions, even if it was an ordinary mouse, it will become a spirit now."
"I hope so." Han Kongque said.
Chen Jiayi said: "This is the suburb of the Magic City. In recent years, it has been included in the Magic City area. How come this place has not been discovered by anyone in these years?"
Han Kongque said with a smile: "Because this place is more than thirty meters deep under the river, it would be strange if someone discovered it."
"River bottom? That's no wonder." Chen Jiayi said.
After saying that, Chen Jiayi burst out laughing, and Han Kongque said: "Are you very proud? Aren't you afraid that I will kill someone and silence you?"
After Chen Jiayi finished laughing, he said: "How can I be dissatisfied? Fortunately, I have a foresight, otherwise wouldn't you get all the benefits here?"
Han Kongque said: "I will kill you right now."
Chen Jiayi walked into the small pools and looked at the elixirs soaking in the water: "I don't know who has such a big hand to transplant so many elixirs to brew wine."
Han Kongque also squatted down, but what he was looking at was not the elixir, but water. The moment he squatted down, a drop of water fell from the top of his head and dripped into the small pool.
Han Kongque's perception extended upwards, but it seemed to be of no use. There was water everywhere, and in his perception, it was all chaos. This could only mean that it was all water.
"This water is also a good thing. Without this water, ginseng, fleece-flower root and jade lotus would absolutely not be able to survive in such a dark place." Han Peacock concluded.
Chen Jiayi glanced around and said, "Is this a man-made wine barrel? Even the door is made of oak. This wine barrel is really big."
"Those ginseng should be black ginseng, which originally grows in dark corners and cannot see the sun. Needless to say, Ganoderma lucidum and Polygonum multiflorum have so many roots. It seems to be eight or nine hundred years old, if not a thousand years old.
Black ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum grow best here. If you need it, you can take some away. If you don't need it now, just leave it here. I don't think most people will find it here without me leading the way." Han Kongque said.
Chen Jiayi took a deep look at Han Kongque and said, "You're welcome. You discovered these things. I don't have the shame to break up with you. We are brothers and we will settle the score. If I take advantage of you this time, next time I encounter something like this
What a good thing, will you still take me with you?
I want wine even if you don’t tell me. There is so much anyway, and I don’t think you will sell this wine to others. In this case, it is better to make it cheaper for our brothers. If there is no need for these elixirs here,
Just leave it here, I think you must have the same intention."
Han Kongque looked at Chen Jiayi in surprise and said, "You think this has changed?"
Chen Jiayi smiled bitterly: "If it were the original, I would definitely share half, or even more than half, because I would consider the family, so it is natural for me to take the other half. But now, if I still think so, that's really wrong."
I have earned your trust."
"There's nothing wrong with doing it for the family," Han Kongque said.
