Chapter six hundred and ninety-six white snow and white
After settling the two horses, the old man found some thick old wine from nowhere. He poured a small cup for himself, and also poured a small cup for Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng. The three of them just sat there in the hot air.
In Teng Teng's earthen house, it was obvious that the old man was not a sociable person. Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng chatted with the old man word by word. Slowly, they learned the identity of the old man.
It turns out that the old man was originally from Chang'an in the Central Plains. He was brought here by his family decades ago when he was still very young, that is, when the previous dynasty Li Tang was destroyed. It should be said that the old man's family moved to this vast place.
In order to take refuge with his family in the snowy field, as time went by, everyone in the old man's family died, and in the end he was left alone to survive in the vast snow forest.
Everyone has their own destiny. For the old man's misfortune, they could only express deep sympathy and could not help. They did not ask the old man's last name. The old man was just a victim of the change of dynasties. This old man
Like all living beings in the world, they are all victims of the strife in this world. Looking at this weather-beaten face, the mood of the two of them was not much better. They couldn't help but squeeze the wine glass and take a sip of the thick wine in the wine glass.
.
A spicy and throat-piercing aroma of wine flowed from their throats. In an instant, a strong aroma of wine came out of his mouth. Soon the aroma of wine spread and filled the room.
中. They didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary wine would give him an extremely spicy feeling. It was hundreds or even thousands of times stronger than ordinary wine. After taking a slight sip of the wine, it felt like it was flowing from the throat.
From their chests to their lower abdomens, they felt as if a hot flame was being swallowed from their mouths and then penetrated into their stomachs.
"This thing is called monkey wine, and it is brewed by monkeys. But it is a good thing. People in this village will steal several jars of monkey wine. Don't underestimate this monkey wine. In such a cold weather,
Drinking this wine can keep out the cold and thaw, and if we elderly people drink it, it can prolong our lives. Every household in the east of our village will prepare some of this wine. When the weather is cold, drinking it is simply the first thing in life.
It's a great blessing." When the old man saw the surprise and confusion in Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng's eyes, he couldn't help but smile and explained to them.
Regarding the legend of monkey wine, Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng had heard of it, but they never expected to drink such precious monkey wine here. Monkey wine, as the name suggests, is a fine wine brewed by monkeys collecting wild fruits.
In fact, this was not created by the monkeys themselves, but the monkeys collected the fruits in a hole to store food for the winter. If there is no shortage of food for the winter, the monkeys will forget about the stored fruits. Then,
The fruit from this cave fermented, and finally brewed into a cave's fruit wine, which is monkey wine.
"This thing is not easy to get. Those monkeys are very clever and hide very well. If you want to find this wine, it will take some effort and means. But you can't be too greedy as a human being.
I stole all the monkey wine in one go and left some for the monkeys. We humans are actually no different from these beasts. We all did it just because of this mouth." Although the old man only drank so much.
It was a small mouth, but his chatterbox opened up and he talked non-stop to Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng.
Wine is really a very magical thing. It can not only shorten the distance between people, but also make people more blurred. It can obviously increase people's courage, but it has indeed caused many people to lose their lives because of it.
.As the old man started talking, the atmosphere in the room became more harmonious. Although it was such a small glass of wine, they all knew that this was no ordinary wine. In addition to keeping out the cold, of course this wine also provided
Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng were in for a surprise.
Just a small sip of monkey wine, like a stream of burning magma, shuttled freely through their bodies, and as soon as the true energy in their bodies encountered this magma, they made bursts of roaring sounds like adding fuel to the fire.
The surging true energy circulated rapidly in their bodies, and then flowed into their Dantian, causing their Dantian to be detonated, and the majestic True Qi accumulated like a volcano.
The three star flowers in Ye Yinfeng's dantian also began to become more substantial. The majestic sea-like Qi surged from the three star flowers, filling his body with endless power. Ling Tianyun
The feeling at this time was the same as his, as if Jiuyang Qi was ignited, it was really roaring, rolling up from his body, and roaring out from his Dantian, making all the bones in his body even harder.
Steel. And the most primitive power that filled his body also made him feel very happy. What does it mean to hold the yellow in his hands and step on the sun and the moon? At this time, he had this kind of heroic aura.
"Old man, take us brothers to steal this monkey wine someday. We will definitely be able to sell it for a good price." Ling Tianyun said jokingly to the old man. This wine has a significant effect on increasing internal strength. They
Now that they have come to the vicinity of Changbai Mountain, they will not think about returning empty-handed. In addition to finding Pang Bo, their most urgent thing is of course to improve their cultivation. This monkey wine has a significant effect on improving cultivation, how can they
miss.
"That's no problem. I haven't been back to the Central Plains for decades, and the traffic here is blocked. I don't know what the Central Plains has become. Maybe the two young masters can explain it to me." A flash of light flashed in the old man's eyes.
With a nostalgic look, he said sadly to the two young men. Although Changbai Mountain is famous all over the world for its rare treasures, it is covered with snow all year round. Even if someone comes to Changbai Mountain, it is impossible for them to rest in their village.
In this almost isolated village, he was also eager to know everything that was happening in the world outside the mountains.
Although there was not enough monkey wine, it did not affect Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng's respect for the weather-beaten old man, so Ling Tianyun told all the things that had happened in the Central Plains and other countries in the past few years. Once upon a time, towards Li
After the fall of the Tang Dynasty, they talked about Chai Rong's accession to the throne, as well as the major events that happened in the Southern Tang Dynasty and other countries. The old man listened to Ling Tianyun's narration and sighed with emotion from time to time.
Unknowingly, the sky was getting dark, and large snowflakes began to fly outside the window. The snowflakes flying all over the sky outside the window added a sense of mystery to this quiet snow forest village. The simple earth huts piled up, and the dead branches.
It has become the roof of the house, as well as the ice vertebrae that have not yet melted, and the snowflakes as big as cotton wool, all of which constitute the unique scenery of the North. From time to time, bursts of snow can be heard from the flying snowflakes.
With the sound of howling wolves, the mysterious Changbai Mountain will usher in another unbridled snowfall. There is only one color in the world, and that is white.
If they had a choice, no one would want to come to this snowfield and forest filled with white. Everything in their eyes is white, even a touch of other colors. But this is what it is here, with snowflakes flying all over the sky, and the ground on the ground.
The thick remaining snow on the ground, and even the branches weighed down by the snow, were all filled with white. Even the tired birds flying in the air were shaken from their wings.
A touch of white color.
"In this snowy plain and forest, there is a kind of wine brewed by monkeys. The spiciness of that wine is not comparable to that of ordinary wine. In addition to resisting the bitter cold, ordinary people can enhance their physical fitness after drinking it. But we martial arts
If a cultivator drinks it, it can also improve his internal strength and cultivation, but it is also difficult to find this wine." In a cave, a pile of bonfires reflected several different faces, including the young man with a handsome face and the appearance of a scholar.
He said slowly to several other well-dressed men.
"Second Young Master is really well-informed. He even knows that monkeys can brew wine. But if these monkeys can really brew wine, wouldn't they have become spirits?" A Zhong family warrior held a bottle in his hand.
The roasted golden hare was echoing to the scholar-looking boy. The other warriors also had longing expressions on their faces. They had never heard of this monkey wine, and they had not even thought about it.
However, monkeys can also brew wine.
"There's nothing strange about this. There's nothing strange about monkeys brewing wine. The world is full of wonders. There's no guarantee that we'll be lucky tonight. We can steal the monkey wine and try it. But among the snow-covered mountains
I don’t know what dangers will arise, so don’t be discouraged if you can’t steal the wine. After all, life is the first priority. There are treasures everywhere in Changbai Mountain, and this monkey wine is not the only treasure in Changbai Mountain.”
Zhong Jianying patiently explained to his subordinates that people with higher cultivation than others felt a faint and strong crisis. He didn't know where this crisis came from, so he didn't say it too much.
death, but leaving a little room.
Eating the most primitive prey on the mountain and drinking the purest snow water on the mountain. Although it has been dark for a long time, there is not a trace of darkness in the white snowfield and forest sea, because the night has long been covered by
The white snow reflected the fluttering snowflakes in the sky and the dazzling whiteness everywhere. A temporary tranquility shrouded the snowy forest and forest. None of the Zhong family's warriors, including Zhong Jianying, felt sleepy at all.
, they are still waiting for time to run away, they are just meditating quietly in this cave.
"Are you so sure that you can find the monkey wine? This mountain is also strange. There are no other colors except white. The old man also said that there are beasts that have become spirits in this mountain.
There are fox demons, bear demons, and monkey demons. Are we sure we want to find the monkey wine?" Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng sneaked out of the village under the cover of night. They had already seen that
The wonders of Hou'er Wine made him feel itchy in his heart and wanted to go directly to the address mentioned by the old man to steal the wine. Ling Tianyun seemed to be a little worried and kept chattering to Ye Yinfeng along the way.
Ye Yinfeng looked at Ling Tianyun with disdain. This guy kept saying that he should stop as soon as he sees fit and that he shouldn't be too greedy. These were righteous words, but when he looked at the wine bag in his hand, he couldn't help but wonder.
It's not an ordinary wine jar or jug, it's a long wine bag. How much monkey wine must be held in that wine bag? It really made him feel extremely embarrassed to catch up with this trap. Fortunately, the old man
We rested early after dinner, otherwise the old man would be frightened to death when he saw them leading such big guys to steal monkey wine. There is so much monkey wine in the world, and where is this monkey wine?
It was so easy for the two of them to succeed.
"Don't look at me like that. Don't you want to bring back more? This is monkey wine. You can bring back as much as you can steal. But to be honest, the taste of monkey wine is really good.
Let's steal more tonight. There are treasures everywhere in Changbai Mountain. If we enter this treasure mountain, how can we leave it empty-handed?" Ling Tianyun still ignored Ye Yinfeng's rolling eyes at him, and he took the wine.
He put the bag on his back shoulder and walked side by side with Ye Yinfeng. Ye Yinfeng, on the other hand, had a look of despair on his face, saying that he was really deprived of having such a friend.
The two figures slowly merged into the whiteness, and the faint white luster illuminated the cedar trees as cold as cold, and there was deathly silence everywhere.
