"Maybe you didn't find the right entrance. The entrance to the wine cellar is not here, but in the brewery. Why don't I show you around." After all, Estelle is the mistress of Vizeme Manor. Even if she was not welcomed here before, she is not interested in this place.
The familiarity is unparalleled.
"Okay." Gavin and Darnell agreed at the same time.
It's just that the ideas are different.
Gavin wanted to visit his estate and see if there was anything he had missed.
Darnell is very interested in the wines stored in the manor. The wines here have a unique and unforgettable taste.
Since the loss of Vizeme Manor, the Vizeme Crystal wine that is still circulating on the market has been artificially hyped to sky-high prices by profiteers in Sambia. A bottle of Vizeme Crystal wine from 1348 is actually priced at three hundred gold coins.
, and even took the scalp.
When it was first launched, the maximum price per bottle was only twenty gold coins.
Estelle stood up and led everyone towards the gate.
As soon as they looked at the direction, Gavin and the others knew why they had missed it.
Because their energy is mainly focused on the main building and stables, which are related to the murder, other buildings are not paid much attention to, especially the brewery. Since it is an open-air building, it is ignored intentionally or unintentionally.
.
Rather than a winery, it is more like a pile of half-decayed large wooden barrels with wooden poles on both sides, which are used to step on the grapes.
The method of entering the wine cellar is also very special, that is, three people enter three specific wine barrels at the same time, and use their own weight to slowly open the underground secret door.
Since no one has been in or out for more than two years and it is in the open air, the traces of the institution have long been covered up by all kinds of dust and weeds.
The mechanism only opened a gap that could accommodate one person to enter, and then it got stuck. Apparently the chain was rusted due to lack of maintenance.
Astaire was about to enter, but was stopped by Darnell, "Madam, let us go first!"
The three paladins have already assumed a combat posture with a hammer in one hand and a shield in the other.
Estelle was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what was going on. He stepped away calmly and said, "Sir, please go first."
The wine cellar belongs to an area they haven't entered yet.
The entire Vizeme Manor has been dragged into the Shadow Plane, and no one knows if there are any ghost monsters here.
Darnell turned to Gavin and said, "Since your relationship is so close, the safety of the two of them will be left to the Gavin brothers. I hope there won't be any accidents."
When talking about the accident, Darnell's expression was somewhat meaningful.
During the previous performance, Gavin's little movements could not be hidden from Darnell at all, let alone, now Amanda's hands were still holding Gavin tightly and refused to let go. She was no longer huddled behind her mother, but now huddled behind Gavin.
behind.
Not to mention that Gavin was a little surprised and helpless, even Estelle felt a little incredible.
Gavin had no choice but to be nice. He couldn't forcefully get rid of Amanda now. Compared to Estelle, she was more unstable. As long as she was comforted, it wouldn't be a big problem.
He didn't even draw his weapon.
The three people in front of me were able to come and go freely when the Vizeme Manor was enveloped by the Immortal Revenge Domain, killing the owner several times. Even if there were indeed ghosts left in the wine cellar, they probably wouldn't be enough to deal with them.
You can tell by looking at their formation. Only Darnell is on the outside, David and Dick are on the inside, and the corner of his eye falls on Estelle and Amanda.
Compared with meeting other undead, they were more worried that something would happen to Estelle and Amanda.
have to.
The vigilance of these three holy knights is not ordinary.
Having said that, it is precisely because of such vigilance that they can walk on the edge of danger and live safely and longer.
Not only were they vigilant, but Regina also kept an appropriate distance.
On the contrary, I seemed to accept Estelle and Amanda too quickly.
As for Anna, it was because of her own reasons that she obviously lacked adventure experience and did not have much vigilance at all. In other words, she believed Gavin too much. She believed whatever he said and followed him closely.
Another advantage of three paladins clearing the way is that they save torches.
The armor on their bodies all lit up with holy light, illuminating the dark ground like bright daylight.
"His!"
Take a look at the size of the wine cellar.
Everyone took a breath of air.
There are four rows of giant fermentation barrels that are as tall as two people, with ten in each row.
There are hundreds of various large wine barrels, medium-sized wine barrels, and small wine barrels.
On the innermost side, there are two rows of wine racks, which are full of bottles of wine. There must be thousands of bottles at least.
Even though Darnell was not greedy for money, facing such a wine cellar, he said to Gavin: "Brother Gavin, I regret it a little now. I shouldn't have given you the ticket in the first place, but hastened my horse."
, and other people were transferred from the Hammer of Justice Monastery. The wine in this cellar is now worth at least one hundred thousand gold in Sambia, and the supply exceeds the demand."
"Sir, my previous promise is still valid. You don't have to wait until next year. When you leave, I will prepare a carriage of wine for you." Gavin couldn't hide the joy on his face. Who doesn't like windfalls?
No one would have thought that there was such a treasure buried under the Vizeme Manor.
"I accept the wine without ceremony, but it's not tomorrow. You can keep it for me, or help me transport the Hammer of Justice when you have time. We have other things to do and won't go back to the monastery directly." Darnell shook his head.
If they refuse, it will be very troublesome to bring a carriage of wine. At that time, they can only take the trade route, which will take hundreds of kilometers.
"Okay, then I'll keep it for you first." Gavin followed suit.
If Darnell really nodded, where to get the truck would still be a head-scratching matter.
Then he said with a smile: "But the wine served tonight must be enough. Come on, lend a hand and hold this bucket up. We will not return until we are drunk."
The wine barrel Gavin chose was a medium-sized barrel, about the width of a person's arms and half a person's height. It could hold at least more than a hundred kilograms of wine.
Darnell shook his head and said: "Just a small taste, this bucket is enough."
What he picked up with one hand was a small bucket that could hold up to ten kilograms.
"It's fine." Gavin didn't persuade him much. According to the other party's vigilance, let alone being drunk, he probably wouldn't drink more after a while.
Seeing a set of crystal glasses next to the wine rack, Gavin took a set directly.
These wines have no attraction to ghosts. After searching this place, I didn't see any ghosts.
Gavin and the others took the drinking utensils and wine and returned upstairs together.
After sitting back in front of the fireplace, the wine barrel was opened with a bang.
"Hey!" Darnell couldn't help but whisper, leaning over to observe the wine flowing out of the barrel.
The wine flowing out of the barrel was neither red nor crystal clear, but black. Gavin could clearly feel that the temperature of the glass in his hand had dropped several degrees.
The temperature of black wine is much lower than normal temperature.
"Show me." Darnell took the initiative to ask for the black wine in Gavin's hand.
"Here." Gavin handed it over without thinking.
After taking the glass, Darnell's hand lit up with a blazing white light.
Suddenly, the black wine was like a boiling pot, rolling continuously, and wisps of black gas floated out from it and spread into the air.
This situation did not last long. When the wine returned to calm again, it had changed from black to crystal clear.
There was no need to explain at all, everyone present understood what was going on.
These wines are filled with negative energy due to the special circumstances of Chateau Vizeme.
"Can I still drink this kind of thing?" Gavin took another glass of black wine.
Darnell shook his head and said: "This situation is unheard of and I don't know about it, but you will know after you try it."
As he spoke, he reached out and took Gavin's new cup again, but this time, instead of activating the positive energy to neutralize and purify, he brought it to his mouth and took a sip.
Darnell couldn't help but let out another exclamation of surprise. It seemed that the situation he encountered was beyond imagination. He couldn't help but take another sip, then another sip, and another sip. When he came back to his senses, a glass of
The black wine has entered my stomach.
At this moment, Darnell's state is also very strange.
His whole body could not help but light up with white light, and wisps of black mist were floating out of his body.
Seeing this situation, Gavin was not in a hurry to ask for the result.
Darnell spoke again: "Don't sell the wine in your cellar to anyone else. The price is 200,000, and we, the Hammer of Justice, will cover it all."
This sentence is the best answer.
Black wine is not only drinkable, but its value has skyrocketed.
Gavin concealed his inner joy and frowned: "Sir, this is not how we talk about business. Just for the help you provided me in recovering the manor, as long as you open your mouth, let alone two hundred thousand, even five
Wan, I won't be able to sell it to anyone else, but I always have to know the reason."
"Sit down and speak slowly." Darnell not only took the initiative to take a glass of black wine, but also took a few more glasses and handed them to others.
After sitting down again, Darnell explained the reason and said: "You should have guessed the reason why the black wine changed color. Yes, it is filled with negative energy, pure negative energy without impurities.
You should also know that positive energy is one of our sources of strength, and positive energy fills our whole body.
But this is not purely a good thing. The positive energy inside the body is always strong, which is also a burden for us.
The glass of wine with negative energy just now neutralized this excess positive energy, but made me in a better state. The positive energy in my whole body seemed to be moving and running more smoothly. Is this how you feel?"
While he was speaking, his two apprentices couldn't help but take several sips of black wine.
At this moment, I couldn't help but nodded in agreement and said: "It feels very good, I have never felt so good as now."
Their situation just confirms once again the principle of the harmony of yin and yang.
Even for a Paladin, it is a good thing to wash oneself with negative energy occasionally, and it is definitely not as energy-intensive.
After letting them do this, Gavin's curiosity was aroused, and he took a glass of dark wine and took a sip.
The first feeling is cool.
It's like adding ice and just melting it in the wine. It has a cool feeling, but it doesn't irritate your mouth.
This feeling did not disappear as soon as it entered the stomach, but lingered in the intestines and stomach for a long time, and the temperature of the whole body couldn't help but concentrate in this direction, feeling cool from the inside to the outside.
This is simply a natural cold drink.
If it’s a hot summer day, a glass of black wine like this will be so refreshing.
Based on this alone, Gavin can conclude that if it is launched in midsummer this year, it will be extremely popular even among ordinary people, and it can even occupy a vital place in bartending.
After knowing something in his heart, Gavin's soul of a profiteer began to beat wildly. He smiled and said to Darnell: "All the black wine in the cellar is priced at 200,000 yuan. I agree, but I don't want to fully trade it to the Hammer of Justice.
Agree, because for you, this is a very losing deal, why don’t we change the transaction method."
"Oh!" Darnell did not show dissatisfaction, but held the wine glass, leaned forward, and said with a listening look, "Tell me and listen."
