Chapter 1108: The Recluse

An old word popped out of my head - monkey wine. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhang Niu didn't believe that this was true, but looking at the pool covered by large stones below, the turquoise liquid in it had become thicker, and a trace of clues could be seen from above.
Will it really be monkey wine? Zhang Niu couldn't believe what he saw, but judging from the current situation, this place seems to be the place where monkey wine is brewed, and no matter how you look at it, you feel very familiar.
Zhang Niu walked along the pond, which was about five meters long and three meters wide, and I don't know if it was naturally formed or artificially made, but now it has become a pool for brewing wine.
Squatting next to the pool at the other end, Zhang Niu saw that there were a lot of fruits deposited underneath this pool, and there was a thin layer of liquid on top, as if it had been deposited over several years, and it became as smooth as silk.
Zhang Niu could smell the aroma when he got close to the pool, and if he didn't have a bottle in his hand, he would have scooped some up and tasted it immediately.
Monkey wine, Zhang Niu heard the old man in the village mention it very early, it is said that this is a good wine made by monkeys using fruits, ordinary people can't drink it at all, because not all monkeys will make monkey wine, so you can't meet monkeys in the mountains and you can't meet this opportunity, and the monkey wine is fragrant and sweet, and it can be included in the excellent wine.
Jin was still jumping on the slate, and made a look of anxiety, if he didn't understand what it meant, the cow could really hit the wall.
This place made Zhang Niu very curious, why there were stone slabs falling from above, just on top of this pool, especially covering two-thirds of the area of the pool, if it wasn't for him to come over to be this hard labor, the stone slabs on the pool didn't know when Ma Yue could move out.
After walking a few more laps in it, Zhang Niu found that the stone seemed to have fallen from the wall, and if you looked closely, you can see a lot of traces, this inspection does not matter, but it is found that there are many stone slabs supporting this place similar to a stone chamber, and the stone slabs that fell on the top of the pool came down from the wall on the side, which just covered the pool.
Is this where the monkeys lived, or was it where the ancient reclusive masters lived? Zhang Niu muttered in a low voice, casually touching the slate with his hand, intending to see if there was any change in these slates.
After observing for a while, Zhang Niu can be sure that this is a place where ancient people lived, because he found a stone painting on this stone slab that surprised him, although it is very old, but the stone painting on the stone slab can still be seen so-so, so it will be determined that this is the place where the ancients lived, because no one lived here later, and over time it was occupied by a group of foreign monkeys.
Anyway, this is the place where the ancients lived, Zhang Niu was very surprised, his mouth was open for most of the day and he didn't close it back, joking, followed Xiaojin to the mountains and found the place where the ancients lived in seclusion, what kind of thing is this, but now Zhang Niu wants to understand what is on this stone painting, and finally come to a trip without looking at something how to be worthy of him.
Originally, Zhang Niu wanted to go outside to find some water and come back, wipe it clean so that he could see it clearly, but then he thought about it carefully and felt that it was too troublesome, so he came up with a good way, that is, to carry all the slate to the space, anyway, it is a waste to put the slate here, it is better to put it in the space, at least it can be preserved intact, and it is also good to be a good antique.
If it weren't for the stone slab that collapsed on the top of the pool, Zhang Niu would not have thought of this way for a while, the stone slabs in this place are probably used for ornamentation, not the main supporting role, due to the passage of time, the stone slabs that were originally relatively solid in ancient times, inevitably appeared to loosen, since there is such a stone slab that is loose, then the loosening of several stone slabs elsewhere is also a matter of time and time, taking advantage of the opportunity to get the space now and there is still a chance to come in later.
"Little Kim, you really gave me a big surprise." Zhang Niu turned around from the slate and casually did a few chest expansion exercises, preparing to get the slate up.
Little Kim squeaked, even happier than before.
Anyway, Zhang Niu has a big harvest today, if it weren't for the leadership of Xiaojin, the stone cave under this waterfall is estimated that no one will find it for a while and a half, after all, the road in front of it is too difficult to walk, especially now that the residents in the mountains have moved out, it has reduced the number of times that mountain people enter the mountain, and the chance of being found in a place like this has been greatly reduced, unless it is to continue to develop the mountain forest in the future, otherwise it will not necessarily be found in a few years.
Now Zhang Niu is glad that he can come here, and he will pack up all the good things here, isn't there a saying that anyone will take things for nothing, he naturally won't give these things to others, and now put them in the space That's the reason, even if someone finds this place in the future, the big deal is to find a pool, as for the other things left behind, don't think about discovering them.
It's not that Zhang Niu is bad, but a psychological idea, no matter who finds a good place, the first thought is to keep the contents as their own, and they will definitely not be relieved if they don't search it wantonly.
So after making some preparations, Zhang Niu began to be a demolition worker, first of all, he took away the slate covering the pool, held the slate and drilled directly into the space, and waited until he came out of the space, stood on the edge of the pool, looked at the green liquor of the pool, and subconsciously made a swallowing action.
It seems to be an emerald color, and the refreshing fragrance completely attracts Zhang Niu.
It's really a good thing, the monkey is so powerful, Zhang Niu couldn't help but muttered to himself, then returned to the space, took out a small bowl from it, squatted next to the pool and gently scooped half a bowl of monkey wine.
Looking at the monkey wine in the bowl with straight eyes, Zhang Niu had an indescribable feeling, who said that animals can't make wine, now is the best proof, although there are countless monkeys in the world, but there are not many monkeys who can brew monkey wine, and now it is not easy to find a place, Zhang Niu is not happy in his heart.
I took a sip gently, and a breath of nature filled the monkey wine, which followed the throat to the stomach, and then the characteristics of the monkey wine were revealed.
Wine! It's a monkey wine!
Zhang Niu tasted monkey wine for the first time, and he didn't believe it when he heard about it in the village before, but now he finally believes it, these monkeys are not simple, and the technology of making wine from generation to generation can still be passed on, and it has not disappeared in the long river of time.
After a small half bowl of monkey wine, Zhang Niu felt refreshed, similar to the health wine brewed in the space, although those brewed through the space seem to be somewhat different from the monkey wine brewed by the monkeys now, if the monkeys are transferred to the space, I don't know what the monkey wine will be brewed?
Although this place is good, Zhang Niu thinks that this is not the right place, it is so difficult to meet a group of monkeys who can make monkey wine, Zhang Niu doesn't want to stay outside like this, who knows that those poachers will be captured.
There are few monkeys who can brew monkey wine, and it will not necessarily be passed down from generation to generation, maybe at some point this monkey wine will be broken, which is a loss for this society, and if it is put into space, then the monkey wine will be passed down from generation to generation, which is what Zhang Niu likes to see the most.
So in this regard, Zhang Niu still hopes to send the monkeys to the space, as for where to choose, that is, let Xiao Jin choose, now Xiao Jin can be in this, there must be a lot of prestige, otherwise how can he appear here, look at the monkeys who dare not come in outside to know what is going on, so there is still a lot of opportunity in this regard.
Now, Zhang Niu plans to move these stone slabs to the space, and it's not a good thing to stay outside.
Xiao Jin, who was still anxious about the slate, didn't know where to find a bamboo, but now it should be said that it was a bamboo pot, carefully filled with some monkey wine, especially precious tasting, and dancing from time to time, seeing such a scene, Zhang Niu knew that Xiao Jin was a guy who liked to drink monkey wine.
Xiao Jin looked at the pool liquid intently, ignoring Zhang Niu, the thief, as if as long as the pool was here, everything around him would be irrelevant.
So Zhang Niu, the thief, worked harder, because there was a loose stone slab before, so Zhang Niu used an iron rod to basically pry open some gaps in these stone slabs, and then with the help of the tearing force of the space, the stone slab fixed on the wall was put into the space.
For the remaining five stone slabs, Zhang Niu made a lot of effort, and finally got all these stone slabs into the space.
Coming out of the space again, Zhang Niu scooped up a small bowl of monkey wine, but Xiao Jin was unhappy and complained that he scooped too much, making Zhang Niu cry and laugh, when did Xiao Jin learn to be stingy.
But if you think about it carefully, these are all made by the monkey's hard work, and as a small gold with prestige here, at least make an example in this regard.
This monkey wine has a lot of stamina, and it is very comfortable to drink, but the feeling after that is really a little drowsy.
Coming out of it, Xiao Jin chirped at the monkeys, and then the monkeys all screamed happily, and Xiao Jin looked very proud.
Zhang Niu shook his head, when did Xiaojin know this trick, it seems that there are a lot of things that Xiaozhu has learned in Happy Xiaozhu, and now he can see some doorways.
Then Zhang Niu wandered in this cave, and found a place similar to a bedroom in it, the bookshelf that was chiseled out of the stone wall, but unfortunately the bamboo clips on it were damaged, and there was no useful clue to see it, Zhang Niu could only express regret, if he found it earlier, I am afraid that it would have become a good thing now, but now the moldy can no longer be moldy.
Coming out of the bedroom, Xiao Jin happily took Zhang Niu to another place.
In this cave, Zhang Niu paid attention to the layout of this place, this is probably a hermitage for scholars, and he didn't find any place to practice martial arts here, but he admired this hermit for daring to live in the mountains, and he was really not afraid of any danger.
This admiration was soon released, and it turned out that there were many traps in this cave, and because of the long period of time, these traps could not be used.
The ancient traps are very exquisite, especially in this environment, this hermit is too powerful, look at the moldy arrows there, the one who dares to walk in rashly, maybe a cold arrow can kill you.
This cave is not big, but it has a different connotation, a hermit lives here, can withstand loneliness, this is probably not something ordinary people can do, at least Zhang Niu does not think it can be done.
Especially in today's society, who would be stupid enough to live in seclusion, especially in the mountains, this is not to find guilt for themselves, but in ancient times it was different, there were reclusive people everywhere, maybe because of the war, maybe because of the change of dynasty, anyway, for all kinds of reasons, many people have changed to live in seclusion on the mountain.
When Zhang Niu came to such a place under the leadership of Xiao Jin, he was completely surprised.
It turned out that under the leadership of Xiao Jin, Zhang Niu unconsciously came to a medicine garden, why would he say this medicine garden, because there was a stone tablet on the way outside.
This place is also in a cave, the only difference is that this is a cave with an open skylight, anyway, how this skylight was made, no one knows.
However, due to the light, a large area of lush grass grows here, and now it grows in a disorderly manner, because no one manages it, the herbs here are mixed with each other, if it weren't for the stone tablet of the medicine garden suggested earlier, Zhang Niu couldn't believe that this was true.
This hermit is really interesting, there are bookshelves in front of it, and here is a medicine field, if you can also order martial arts, it is really a great Japanese powder.
For these herbs, Zhang Niu didn't know about these things for the time being, but if they could be planted here, they must be good things, so he had the idea of moving these herbs to the space.
Planting here is purely a waste, if there is a heavy rain here one day, the herbs here must be flooded, so Zhang Niu's first thought is to move into the space, which can make these herbs grow better, maybe one day, these herbs can still come in handy.
So Zhang Niu proposed this idea, Xiao Jin immediately nodded and agreed, taking advantage of this good opportunity, Zhang Niu mentioned the idea of getting monkeys to live in space.
This time Xiao Jin still agreed without any hesitation, which was unexpected by Zhang Niu, but thinking about Xiao Jin's cleverness, if you don't know how to choose, then this matter is really a bit of a hexagram.
