After the sorghum is cooked, several workers then put the sorghum, distiller's grains and some auxiliary ingredients together, and then proceed to the second step of drying in the sun. After drying, the third step is fermentation.
However, fermentation is a long-term process, which can take as little as a week or as long as a month. Naturally, Qin Yu will not keep watching here. After telling Yao Guoliang some things that need attention, Qin Yu left the winery.
, let Yao Guoliang inform him when the first jar of wine comes out.
In the past few days when Bai Qi didn't notify him, Qin Yu had been staying in the room to recharge his batteries. After all, Bai Qi had confessed that the most important thing to do when searching for Yang He was to rely on himself, in order to solve Xiao Jiu's digestion problem.
He doesn't dare to take bad issues lightly.
However, when Qin Yu was about to continue meditating today, his cell phone rang. Qin Yu looked at the phone number. Was it Mr. Yan?
"Why did Mr. Yan call me?" Qin Yu saw a vague premonition of Mr. Yan's number in his mind.
"Hey, Mr. Yan, what's the matter with you calling me?"
"Fellow Daoist Qin, are you free now?" Mr. Yan's voice came from the mobile phone. It was calm and without any emotion. It was obviously a question, but it felt like he had spoken a statement.
"Yes." Qin Yu replied after pondering for a moment.
"Then, Fellow Daoist Qin, come to my Yan Mansion. I have something I want to talk to Fellow Daoist Qin about."
"Okay, I'll come right away." Qin Yu didn't hesitate. After hanging up the phone, he went out. This time, he didn't even call for a tank. His intuition told him that Mr. Yan's visit to him must be related to Bai Jin.
Thinking of that woman, Qin Yu's head felt dizzy. According to Bai Qi, this woman's background was not simple, and he didn't know how he would treat Mr. Yan.
Because he didn't ask a tank to accompany him and he didn't have a car, more than an hour had passed by the time Qin Yu took a taxi to the alley where Yan Lao's house was located.
"Yan Lao."
The door of Yan Mansion was not closed, Qin Yu called out, but no one inside responded to him, so Qin Yu had to push the door open and enter by himself.
"Mr. Yan, are you there?"
Qin Yu stepped into the door of the house and shivered all over. The temperature of the house was even lower than last time.
"Mr. Yan withdrew the Yin Gathering Formation?"
However, Qin Yu thought about it and understood why. It must be that Mr. Yan removed the Yin Gathering Formation, which caused the Yin Qi in the house to suddenly become chaotic and flow everywhere. This is the sequelae of the Yin Gathering Formation. After waiting
After a while, it will slowly return to normal.
Qin Yu called Mr. Yan's name several times, and finally he heard a sound. It came from the second floor. Qin Yu's eyes followed the corridor on the second floor. As a result, he was stunned.
on the spot.
At the end of the corridor on the second floor, in the room where Qin Yu and others entered that day, there was a man with white hair standing there. When Qin Yu's eyes fell there, he happened to be eye-to-eye with him and saw the look in his eyes.
He was shocked as he was ashen and had a head full of white hair.
"Mr. Yan? What's wrong with you?"
The white-haired man standing in the corridor on the second floor was Mr. Yan. When Mr. Yan saw Qin Yu, a smile appeared on his face, but this smile was full of bitterness.
"Fellow Daoist Qin is here, come up."
Qin Yu walked along the stairs towards the second floor. However, when he saw the ladders on the stairs, his eyebrows wrinkled slightly. The stairs were originally made of wood, but now, two of the ladders had broken.
Although this kind of old-decorated ladder looks ancient, Qin Yu knows very well that it is actually very strong and difficult for ordinary people to break. What's more, when he came here three days ago, the ladder was still intact.
, Something must have happened in Mr. Yan’s house in the past few days.
After crossing the two ladders, Qin Yu went up the stairs and walked towards Mr. Yan at the other end of the corridor. For some reason, he hadn't seen him for only three days, but Qin Yu felt that Mr. Yan looked several times older.
Although Mr. Yan was already over 70 years old before this, he was still very energetic, no less energetic than a person in his forties or fifties. But now Mr. Yan, Qin Yu is in his
On his face, he only saw loneliness and exhaustion, and his originally dyed hair turned gray, which is the best proof.
"Mr. Yan, what happened? Where is Miss Bai?" Qin Yu walked up to Mr. Yan and couldn't help but ask.
"Bai Jin is gone." Mr. Yan replied expressionlessly. On his weathered old face, his eyes were already sunk deeply into his bones.
"Leave?" Qin Yu was surprised, but felt that it was expected. After receiving Bai Qi's reminder, Qin Yu thought that sooner or later Bai Jin would leave Yan Lao, but he did not expect that this day would happen.
He came so quickly, only three days after waking up, Bai Jin left.
"Yes, she said she had something to do. Moreover, Bai Jin was right. I am already in my twilight years. There is such a big difference in our appearance, so I can't delay her any longer."
"fart."
Qin Yu couldn't help but cursed loudly. What do you mean by not delaying her? Mr. Yan has spent half his life to save her. It can be said that because of her, Mr. Yan is now over 70 years old. He has no children or grandchildren, but he has no wife.
Now that Bai Jin woke up, he said lightly that they were not suitable for each other, which made him feel angry.
What is this? Mr. Yan spent his youth and time for Bai Jin. Now that Bai Jin woke up, he kicked Mr. Yan away. Such a heartless woman is really rare.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, in fact, Bai Jin's choice is not wrong. I have thought about it now. Isn't my purpose just to hope that Bai Jin can wake up? Now that she has woken up, my wish has been fulfilled. Fellow Daoist Qin, don't worry about it."
Mr. Yan smiled and turned to comfort Qin Yu. Qin Yu looked at Mr. Yan deeply. He loved Bai Jin to the core. How many men had guarded a living dead for fifty years?
This can be done.
"Actually, that's okay. I'm getting old too. When people get old, they miss home. Don't they always say fallen leaves return to their roots? I've packed my things and plan to go back to my hometown today. I haven't been back for fifty years and I know the people in my hometown.
Do you still know me?"
The old man looked into the distance with a hint of longing and a hint of confusion: "When a young boy leaves home and his elder brother returns home, his local accent remains unchanged and his hair on his temples fades. When children see each other but don't recognize each other, they smile and ask where the guests are from."
"I missed home, so I went back. This time I came to Fellow Daoist Qin just to talk to Fellow Daoist Qin. In addition, regarding Quhe Winery, I said hello to several of my old friends in the liquor industry, and they said they would take care of it.
So fellow Daoist Qin can rest assured."
Mr. Yan finally looked at Qin Yu and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Yan." Qin Yu didn't know what to say. Mr. Yan was so old and had never experienced anything. Such a strong old man didn't need to listen to his comfort at all. Maybe, he just wanted to talk to him.
Listening is his best choice.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, your talent is the best I have ever seen in my life. Even among the geniuses of all generations in the metaphysical world, you are still ranked high. I believe that fellow Daoist Qin will definitely become famous in the metaphysical world in the future. If you look down on the old man
, you can go to Lingnan to find me, let’s have a drink and talk about Taoism.”
"I will talk to you about Lao Yan when the time comes." Qin Yu nodded and replied affirmatively.
Qin Yu is still full of respect for Mr. Yan. This respect has nothing to do with Mr. Yan’s identity or his cultivation realm. Mr. Yan’s cultivation realm is only the fourth-level realm. Among the people Qin Yu meets,
Not top-notch.
What Qin Yu respects is Mr. Yan's deeds. He has been willing to sacrifice for Bai Jin for fifty years and lived in a foreign land for fifty years. He is a person with the most affection and nature. Such a person is worthy of respect.
"Okay, my nephew is also waiting for me below. If it weren't for waiting for Fellow Daoist Qin to arrive, I should be in the car now. Fellow Daoist Qin, please just say goodbye."
Mr. Yan looked towards the door, and Qin Yu also looked over. There, Mr. Yan's nephew was standing respectfully waiting at the door, holding two boxes in his hands.
"Have a good trip, Mr. Yan." Qin Yu clasped his fist towards Mr. Yan and said sincerely his blessing.
Qin Yu watched Mr. Yan get into the car and disappear deep into the alley. He did not ask Mr. Yan about how to deal with Yan's mansion. He was a sad old man. Maybe if he left earlier, it would be better for the old man.
A bit of pain.
"My motherland is wandering in my mind. I am so sentimental and should laugh at me. May I be born early!"
After Qin Yu murmured this poem by Su Shi, he sighed softly, finally looked back at Yan Mansion, and walked out of the alley.
…
Chishui River is a name familiar to modern people. This river will be mentioned in the history textbooks of all provinces. The fourth crossing of Chishui was a famous battle commanded by Taizu. Chishui River is well known to the Chinese people because of it.
.
Late autumn, night, frost is falling!
At this time, Huairen has fallen into silence, and even the sound of the tide in the Chishui River has gradually become smaller. However, beside the Chishui River, under the moonlight, there is a young figure, slowly walking on the river.
While walking.
This young figure was naturally Qin Yu. He was holding Xiaojiu in his arms. While walking by the Chishui River, he asked in a low voice: "Marshal Bai Qi, since you said you had already calculated that Yanghe
Where is it, so why delay it until now?"
This was the seventh day after Li Yanlao left. Bai Qi finally appeared again and told him that he was going to look for the Yang River tonight, so there was a scene where Qin Yu appeared in the Chishui River late at night.
"You think I don't want to find it quickly. Don't worry, the little thing in your arms won't die. I didn't come to find it in advance because I was afraid that the girl hadn't gone far yet." Bai Qi's voice sounded in Qin Yu's mind,
"Girl? Are you talking about Bai Jin?" Qin Yu stopped and looked surprised. Is Bai Jin so powerful that even Bai Qi is afraid of him?
"I'm not afraid of that girl. It's not like you are useless and no match for me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have to wait so long."
"Uh..." Qin Yu touched his nose, not knowing how to answer. (To be continued)
