Chapter 46: Wine Acacia

The rickety carriage is easy to attract drowsiness, and I really don't want to feel sick after sleeping, so without waiting for Xiaoying to speak, Xiaoxun pulled the old man and asked him to tell a story.

As for her reason, of course, Zhou Gong's chessboard is not attracted by stories.

I knew that Xiao Xun, who had a beautiful face, was the easiest to get the benefits of her elders, and since she opened her mouth, Xiaoying was happy to save effort.

As she expected, although the old man postponed, he couldn't resist Xiao Xun's coquettishness after all, and finally agreed to tell them a story.

Before he began to tell it, the old man made a special statement about the truth of the story, and also told Xiaoying and the two that the story was the experience of a very good friend of his.

Although they didn't believe his words, Xiaoying and Xiaoxun still nodded tacitly.

With their assurance, the old man's story began.

It was a seemingly harmonious village, and every villager made a living from wine, so there were more legends in the village than wine.

According to legend, there is a kind of excellent wine, called Acacia, a sip can make people slightly drunk, if a glass is enough to make people drunk, and it has a special dark fragrance, even if people who don't like to drink smell this fragrance, they can't help but want to taste it.

As the oldest winemaking family in the village, the Yao family and the Nan family, in order to compete for the title of the best family in the village, vowed to brew "Acacia".

In the process of the two families competing for wine several times, the young master of the Yao family fell in love with Miss Nan, and despite the opposition of the elders in the family, he persistently hired a matchmaker to bring a dowry to the Nanjia family to propose marriage, as the villagers expected, the young master of the Yao family was ruthlessly driven out by the master of the Nan family.

The frustrated young master of the Yao family, because he had no face to return home, chose to leave the village, just before he stepped out of the village, he thought that he might never be able to taste his parents' good wine in the future, so he decided to find a tavern to have a good drink.

What surprised him was that although the faΓ§ade of a tavern he found casually was inconspicuous and easy to ignore, the wine it sold was absolutely genuine, and it was Young Master Yao, who was used to tasting his own good wine, was full of praise for the wine in that tavern.

Probably because the wine in the tavern was so good, the young master of the Yao family drank wine in the hall for three days and three nights, and when he finally realized that he should go, the proprietress of the tavern blocked his way, and took out the wine treasured in the hall, and invited the young master of the Yao family to taste it.

Afterwards, Young Master Yao thought that that wine should be the best wine he had ever drunk after living for so long, and he originally wanted the proprietress to teach him how to brew it, so that he would have a chance to win over the Nan family, and it would not be difficult to go to the Nan family to propose marriage at that time.

It's just that the proprietress told him indifferently that this is an inferior wine, and people who can't say their opinions are not worthy of making this kind of wine at all.

In order to get the approval of the proprietress and learn how to make this good wine, the young master of the Yao family abandoned the idea of leaving his hometown, sneaked home at night, and looked through all the ancient books in the family and still couldn't find a record of that kind of wine, and finally he had to ask the proprietress for a glass of wine, and at the risk of being disposed of by his father's house rules, he put the wine in front of his father, hoping that he could give advice.

Unbeknownst to him, his father was shocked after drinking, and ordered the family to bring back the proprietress of the tavern, the young master of the Yao family wanted to stop his father, but was seriously reprimanded by his father.

That night, the proprietress of the tavern was tied up and brought back by the Yao family, and the head of the Yao family, who had been angry for a day, finally calmed down, except for the matter of proposing, the young master of the Yao family, who had never disobeyed his father's will, although he couldn't bear the proprietress to suffer, but he still did not intercede for her.

However, in the conversation between his father and the proprietress, Young Master Yao finally knew the shortcomings of the wine, in his father's original words, the wine was a good wine, but it lacked emotion, and the materials made were completely consistent with the legendary wine "Acacia".

Knowing the materials used to make the wine, Young Master Yao finally understood why his father had arrested the proprietress, the Yao family and the Nan family had been competing for so long, and both families wanted to touch the legendary wine, but they never succeeded, because the production of the wine "Acacia" needed to use "rain springs", which is also a legendary thing.

Speaking of this, the old man suddenly looked out of the car, and at some point, the sky of the Netherworld City was completely covered by dark clouds, and the dense drizzle fell quickly, and many chickens walked calmly on the street.

Everything, as it seems.

Anxious to know the later plot, Xiao Xun couldn't help but ask: "What is that rain spring?" ”

"Rain Spring, another name for the rain of the Netherworld." Seeing that the old man was silent, Xiaoying replied on his behalf.

The old man looked at her in surprise, thinking that she was the shadow master of the teahouse here, and couldn't help but sigh: "You know, it's because there is a kind of tea that also needs a rain spring to soak it." ”

"Like the name of Acacia Brew, that kind of tea is also called Acacia, but its reputation is not as gorgeous as Acacia Brew." Nodding, Xiaoying replied with a smile.

There was no further discussion with Xiaoying about tea, and the old man continued to tell his story.

The residents of the village know that the rain spring is the rain of the Netherworld, but the lord of the Netherworld City has ordered that the rain in the city cannot be taken out of the city, and those who dare to violate it will be immediately executed, and the soul will disappear.

The wine brewed by the proprietress is the same as the material used in "Acacia", so there must be a rain spring in her wine, and the head of the Yao family, who was afraid of being found by the city lord of the Netherworld, decided to expose the matter of the proprietress stealing the rain spring, and handed the proprietress to the city lord of the Netherworld City to deal with.

At that time, the proprietress did not have any objections, because she knew that Young Master Yao, who was bent on winning over the Nan family, would definitely come to save her.

As she expected, on the night when the Yao family planned to leave to send her to the Netherworld, the young master of the Yao family secretly took her out of the Yao family.

As a condition for saving her life, the young master of the Yao family hoped that she could provide him with a little rain spring, but she did not refuse, but told him that she did not use the rain spring.

At that time, the young master of the Yao family, because he was full of thoughts about winning the Nan family and hugging the beauty, did not hear her explanation at all, and after he got the so-called "rain spring" the next day, he asked the proprietress strangely, is the rain in the Netherworld red, at that time, the proprietress did not answer him.

The proprietress didn't answer, and the young master of the Yao family didn't ask, but happily began to make his ideal "Acacia", but the legendary wine, how could he make it casually, he failed again and again, and naturally had to find the proprietress again and again to get the "rain spring".

Simply his talent for winemaking is abnormal, after many failures, he finally found a way, this is the village but broke the news, three months later the Yao family and the Nan family will have the last competition, in order to be able to participate in this competition, the young master of the Yao family is full of confidence to find the proprietress to ask for the last rain spring.

But when he found the proprietress, the proprietress took the initiative to give him the rain spring, and told him that this was the last time she would provide him with the rain spring, and with these rain springs, he would definitely win the competition between the Yao family and the Nan family, but he couldn't get Miss Nan.

The young master of the Yao family thought that the proprietress was cursing herself, so she slammed the door with the rain spring.

Three months later, the grand competition began, the young master of the Yao family wore a mask and used a pseudonym to participate, as the proprietress said, he successfully won the victory for the Yao family, but when he proposed to Miss Nan, a hurricane blew, and when everyone sobered up, Miss Nan had disappeared.

Everyone thinks that it was the young master of the Yao family whose wine caused the trouble, and the patriarch of the Nan family, who originally intended to agree with the proposal, also rejected the young master of the Yao family.

In desperation, the young master of the Yao family had to leave the village, but after leaving his hometown, no one liked to drink the wine he brewed, and over time he didn't even have the money to eat, so he had to dress himself up as a beggar, but the places he passed through were mostly ruins, and no one was willing to give him the food for his life, so he only starved to death on the streets.

When he was dying, a handsome young man passed by, he was humming a shameful tune, and when he saw the young master of the Yao family who fell to the ground, he deliberately squatted down and said in the ear of the young master of the Yao family, insisting on what he knew he couldn't get, and finally lost everything, why should you?

At that time, the young master of the Yao family didn't know what the young man's words meant, and it wasn't until he turned into the ghost ghost of the Netherworld with his obsession that he realized that the young man was the ghost king of the necropolis, and if it wasn't for the young man blocking his route into the necropolis, he should have appeared in the necropolis.

Later, the young master of the Yao family gradually became famous in the circle of ghosts, and in order to eliminate his resentment against the necropolis, the ghost monarch personally wrote a letter to him.

The content of the letter told him that the rain spring should not be red, and when he got the red rain spring, he should have smelled the smell of blood, the legendary wine "Acacia", in fact, it does not have to be brewed with the rain spring, and the blood of foreign beasts is the same, but to reach the legendary level, in the process of brewing, we must carry the most sincere Acacia, at the time of winemaking, the young master of the Yao family must not be sincere, in order to let him win, the proprietress This woman who transformed into a human in the body of a strange beast had to incarnate Acacia herself, Stronger than in wine.

After reading Ghost Jun's letter, the young master of the Yao family finally knew that the person he really liked was not Miss Nan, but the proprietress, so he wrote to Ghost Jun to ask if there was any way he could see the proprietress again.

I don't know if the ghost king was moved by his confession, so he wrote back to tell him that if you are lucky enough to meet the woman who can make acacia brewing, then congratulations, you have already met.

The story ended here, Xiaoying hesitated for a moment, and finally opened her mouth: "Your surname is Yao, right, you are the young master of the Yao family in the story." ”

Without answering, the old man's eyes were completely attracted by the rain outside the car.

Expecting his reaction, Xiaoying moved his body, found the most comfortable position and stopped, and then also looked at the rain outside the car: "Actually, what I want to say is that the reply was not written by the ghost king, and he is not the one who knows how to move." ”

"So, who wrote the letter?" Xiao Xun asked curiously.

Spreading out her hand, Xiaoying chuckled, indicating that she didn't know either.
