"You weren't driven away just because of this last time, were you?" Long Chen looked at Xia Youluo and said with a strange look on his face.
"Isn't that right? I'm just complaining. Do you think they are stingy?" Xia Youluo whispered like a thief.
"Actually, you have misunderstood them. Entering this place is a rare experience that is hard to find.
This is a kind of goodwill from the Palace of Dionysus, but you regard their goodwill as an obstruction, which in itself misinterprets other people's good intentions, and it is right for people to be angry.
Just imagine, you give snacks to those hungry people, but they have never seen the snacks and think they are lumps of cow dung, and then scold you for deliberately insulting people, will you be angry?" Long Chen said.
"The theory is very good, but the metaphor is disgusting. Can't you use a more elegant metaphor?" Xia Youluo stared at Long Chen.
"I am a commoner myself, why should I pretend to be elegant?" Long Chen shook his head.
"But I am a woman, can't you restrain yourself?" Xia Youluo said angrily.
"Are you a woman? I just treat you as a girl. Okay, let's go." After Long Chen finished speaking, he continued to move forward.
"Hey, wait for me, pull me up, or I'll fall again." Xia Youluo couldn't help shouting when she saw that Long Chen ignored her and walked forward on his own.
"Men and women are not allowed to kiss each other. It's inconvenient for me to pull you, so you should walk slowly." Long Chen refused to extend his hand.
"Are you a man? I just treat you as an uncle, what's wrong with pulling me out?" Xia Youluo used Long Chen's words to fight back, and at the same time stretched out his jade hand.
Long Chen was happy, this girl can do it, she can attack her shield with her spear so quickly.
Long Chen reached out and held Xia Youluo's little hand. Long Chen clearly felt that Xia Youluo's hand trembled slightly, and a blush appeared on his face.
Being grabbed by Long Chen's big hand, Xia Youluo couldn't help but feel her heart beat wildly. Long Chen was the first outsider she came into contact with, so she was a little nervous, but in order to show her bravery, she showed no feeling at all.
.
Long Chen couldn't help but feel funny, and pulled her forward slowly: "Actually, this section of the road is a kind of practice."
"Practice?" Xia Youluo was stunned.
"Well, it's a kind of spiritual practice. When you lose everything to rely on, everything returns to the original state. This is a kind of spiritual practice.
You are too young and have too little experience. In your eyes, mud is dirty, so you don't want to touch it.
But you have forgotten that everything on the earth is born from the soil. Everything you eat comes from the soil. If you touch the spiritual fruit, it is clean? If you touch the soil with your shoes, you feel dirty. Isn't this ridiculous?
What?
Let’s talk about what you mentioned before about elegance and vulgarity. Elegance is based on vulgarity. When people don’t have enough to eat and their lives cannot be guaranteed, they will only think about survival.
Only when people's survival is guaranteed will they pursue a spiritual thing. However, many people have forgotten the essence of many things if they pursue spiritual things too much.
The formation here makes us lose all reliance and return to the original, allowing us to see the essence of life clearly.
Cultivation is not just about cultivation and talent, but more about perception. Even life cannot be seen clearly. It is just a frog in the well, working behind closed doors. After all, it will never reach the peak of martial arts." Long Chen pulled Xia Youluo and walked forward.
While saying, after all, she is Xia Yunchong's sister, Long Chen still kindly reminds her.
"Papa pa pa"
Xia Youluo heard this and was confused. It turned out that the two of them had walked to a small building without knowing it. In front of the building, there was a middle-aged man in white clothes who looked to be in his thirties. He clapped his hands lightly with a look on his face.
’s praise:
"Your honor is such a high level of understanding. I admire you. I have a little wine in the house. I also hope that your honor will be appreciated."
"You... actually invited us to taste wine, is this true?... Oops" Xia Youluo looked at the man and said excitedly. In his excitement, he almost fell down again, but luckily he was pulled away by Long Chen.
So I didn't make a fool of myself.
The man smiled slightly and said politely: "As long as you don't blaspheme the God of Wine, girl, how can I dare to expel the distinguished guest?"
Long Chen listened to the conversation between the two and realized that Xia Youluo was kicked out by the man in front of him that time.
Walking along the path, this is the first small building. In other words, last time Xia Youluo was kicked out without even having a sip of wine, and he even got scolded when he returned. It was really sad. No wonder
I was so excited to be invited.
"No, no, never again, I just won't say anything." Xia Youluo said with excitement.
"Please come in"
The man smiled slightly and made a gesture of invitation. Long Chen cupped his fists slightly before entering the small building.
The inside is not big, only three feet square. There is a table on the ground. On the table, there is a jar of wine and a few wine glasses. It is very simple and clean.
"Please sit down. This is the wine I brewed. I would like you two to taste it." The middle-aged man took out a white handkerchief and wiped his hands carefully.
Only then did he take out two exquisite jade bowls. The jade bowls were amber in color and about an inch in diameter. They were placed on the table. He reached out and picked up the small wine jar, which was only one circle larger than his fist. He poured it into the wine bowl gently until it was eighty-quarters full.
.
When the wine entered the jade bowl, it turned pink, and the fragrance was infinite. It went straight to the nose and was refreshing. Xia Youluo couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
You must know that each disciple of the Dionysus Palace has his or her own special wine, which is not available to outsiders. In other words, only those who are invited are qualified to taste it.
Although the wine of the Daxia royal family also comes from the Dionysian Palace, it is completely on a different level from the special wines made by these disciples of the Dionysian Palace.
"please"
The man signaled that Xia Youluo couldn't wait. He stretched out his jade hands, held the small wine bowl in his hands, put it to his lips, sniffed for a while, then opened his lips lightly, took a small sip, and then divided it into three sips.
According to different proportions, drink up the wine in the jade bowl.
Long Chen smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to pick up the jade bowl, and drank it all in one gulp. However, he felt a clear spring pouring into his belly, spreading out in an instant, leading to his limbs, like a hot spring washing his whole body. He felt indescribably comfortable, and at the same time
An inexplicable force cleanses people's hearts and eliminates distracting thoughts.
"It's such a good wine. I've never had such a delicious wine." Xia Youluo couldn't help but marvel, with a look of surprise on her pretty face.
"Thank you for the compliment. What's good about it?" the man asked.
"this……"
Xia Youluo was immediately speechless. Although she knew a little bit about wine tasting, it was the basic etiquette of the royal family, but when it came to wine tasting, she didn't understand anything.
She hated herself for talking too much, and now she was speechless when being asked. Now she was embarrassed, but she was very smart. She rolled her eyes, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "My brother is a master of wine tasting, he will give you a satisfactory answer."
Yes, I won’t show my shame anymore.”
Don’t you call me uncle anymore? Do you have feelings about the seniority in your family, or does it change with your mood?
"Brother Long Chen, are you talking?" Seeing Long Chen looking at her dumbfounded, Xia Youluo pushed him and said.
Well, this girl is getting smarter and smarter, and she actually knows how to trick people. Yes, she is making rapid progress. She is following me, Long Chen, and is growing in skills every moment. It seems that she will have to pay tuition fees with Xia Yunchong.
But when he saw the man and looked at him, Long Chen said: "The good thing about this wine is that during the brewing process, you poured all your heart into it, and used the power of your soul to remove all kinds of impurities, making this wine extremely pure.
.
Moreover, during the fermentation stage, you use the enlightenment of heaven to integrate the wine into emotions, and use the power of fire to fuse it.
It can be said that this wine is almost flawless, and the alcoholic power is even and long-lasting, reaching everywhere.
In the end, with the power of turning back, the power of perception in the wine can flow into the heart of the drinker, making people enjoy it endlessly, so it is indeed a good wine."
Seeing Long Chen talking eloquently, Xia Youluo's beautiful eyes were filled with shock. Originally, she was ready to be kicked out together with Long Chen.
Unexpectedly, Long Chen could actually make such an astonishing comment, and the words were precise and thought-provoking.
After thinking about it carefully, it was exactly what Long Chen said, and she couldn't help but admire it in her heart. She always thought that Long Chen was just a guy with a foul mouth.
But there was a very strange feeling about Long Chen that always attracted her. She felt that there were many things hidden in Long Chen, which aroused her curiosity.
At this time, Long Chen made a comment that completely shocked her. The most important thing was that she saw the same look of shock on the man's face.
"Your honor is such a strange person. He actually mentioned all the characteristics of this wine. It's really admirable." The man said with admiration.
"I dare not take it for granted. I am also a good drinker and an alchemy cultivator, so it is not surprising that I can get some clues after a closer look." Long Chen said with a smile.
"Your Excellency, you are also proficient in alchemy?" The middle-aged man was surprised.
"I understand a little bit," Long Chen said with a smile.
"I don't know how to respect you, but do you have any advice on the wine I serve?" the middle-aged man said with a sincere face.
Xia Youluo also opened her big eyes and looked at Long Chen. She could no longer understand Long Chen at all.
"I don't take the advice seriously, but your wine has a fatal weakness. You will never be able to achieve the right path in your life." Long Chen looked at the man and said.
Long Chen's words suddenly caused Xia Youluo's expression to change. When she looked at the man, the man's expression also changed.
"Please, distinguished guest, please give me some advice. What is the fatal weakness of my wine?" The middle-aged man took a deep breath and tried to keep his voice calm, but Xia Youluo had already heard the tone of his voice.
There was a trace of trembling in his voice, and it was obvious that he was a little angry.
The disciples of the Dionysus Palace regard their wine as their most sacred existence and will never allow others to blaspheme it. Long Chen actually said that his wine has a fatal weakness, and what is even more outrageous is that he points out that it is difficult for him to become a righteous person. This is not only
The wine that insulted him insulted his person even more.
Xia Youluo stood up nervously at this time, but Long Chen still sat there with a smile on his face.
Note: Some people have confused the realms. Let me mark them as Xuandan realm (king-level strong ones), Transformation God realm (yuan master-level strong ones), and Fate Star realm (mysterious master-level strong ones).
