Chapter 71: Journey to the West
Inside the brewery of Qianguo Lee's Liquor Shop!
"Miss, everything you want is here!"
A brewing master in the wine shop prepared all the things that Li Meng had explained and put them in front of Li Meng.
On the table are selected five kinds of grains: sorghum, rice, glutinous rice, wheat, and corn.
Li Meng swept around the brewing materials in front of him, and said with a smile: "It's okay to have these, just leave it to me below!" ”
Looking at Li Meng, who was busy there, his face suddenly turned stunned, and he said in disbelief: "Sister, do you still make wine?" ”
"You'll find out later!"
Li Meng smiled mysteriously, then looked at the materials on the table and rolled up his sleeves.
Li Jun's face showed a trace of worry, and he didn't know if his righteous sister would make wine, and even if he could brew, he didn't know if it would be a big hit.
Two hours later......
Dozens of jars of newly brewed raw liquor are all arranged for brewers to be placed in a cellar pond closed by sealing mud, and the solid state is naturally fermented and distilled.
"Brother, brewing wine is not something that can be done in a hurry!"
When a few people returned home, in the study, Li Meng smiled at Li Jun and said, "So our Li family's urgent needs need to be solved in other ways!" ”
Li Jun frowned slightly, and said softly: "Then what should we do?" ”
"I heard that Li Siqi, the empress of the Xia Kingdom, wrote a book "Dream of Red Mansions"?"
After hearing Li Meng's question, Li Jun immediately walked to the bookshelf, brought a book to Li Meng, and said, "This is "Dream of Red Mansions"!" ”
Li Meng took it and opened it and looked at it simply. That's right, it's "Dream of Red Mansions", one of the four famous Chinese novels!
This made Li Meng even more sure that the princess of the Xia Kingdom must have also crossed over!
The imbalance in Li Meng's heart!
Why did she cross over and become the princess directly!
Why didn't I even have a decent identity when I crossed over, the relationship between the Li family was still climbed by my mother!
"Hmph, it's just a copy of "Dream of Red Mansions", if she can write it, then I can write it too!"
Li Meng sat at the table and whispered to Li Jun: "Brother, I plan to write a new book, the name is "Journey to the West"!" ”
"What?"
Li Jun suddenly became interested, and couldn't wait to ask, "What kind of book is this "Journey to the West"?" ”
"Journey to the West tells a mythical story!"
Li Meng then spoke: "Brother, you go and get busy with you first, I'll come to you later!" ”
"Okay, I do have some more things to take care of!"
Li Jun bowed slightly: "Remember to let me see, that "Journey to the West"!" ”
Li Jun left the study with a smile, Li Meng took out a blank book, thought in his heart, and began to write slowly......

Xia Kingdom Palace!
"Ahem......"
Since Emperor Xia returned to the imperial capital, his body has become weaker and weaker, and he can no longer stand up at this time.
Lang evil poison, the world's first poison, rumored to come from the Northern Desert, there is no antidote and antidote!
Queen Zhou Fangyi lay in front of the Xia Emperor's dragon bed and cried quietly: "Why is this happening...... Woowoo woo ......"
"Niangniang, Mr. Hua is here!"
At this time, Cao Zhengchun walked into the hall and whispered to the crying queen.
The queen immediately wiped away the tears in her eyes, and hurriedly said to Cao Zhengchun: "Announce him quickly!" ”
"No!"
Cao Zhengchun finished speaking softly, walked out of the hall, and lured an old man with crane hair and a childish face over.
"Meet the Queen!"
Hua Tuo dropped the medical wooden box and bowed respectfully to the queen.
"Mr. Hua, please get up!"
The emperor held his hand and said anxiously towards Hua Tuo: "I hope that Mr. Hua will save Your Majesty!" ”
Hua Tuo hurriedly said softly: "The old man swears allegiance to my master, Your Majesty is the master's father, and he should do his best to save him!" ”
This is not the first time Hua Tuo has treated Emperor Xia, he has come twice before, and he has prescribed some medicines, but at most he can only relieve Emperor Xia's cough, and it has no therapeutic effect on toxicity!
After Hua Tuo finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the Xia Huang Dragon Bed.
Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to looking, hearing and asking, looking at Xia Huang's pale face, weak breathing, and Hua Tuo's brows furrowed, this is not a good sign!
"Niangniang, when was the last time Your Majesty woke up?"
Hua Tuo stared at Emperor Xia, then looked at the Empress beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty's face is pale and even a little yellowish, and his breathing is also very weak, this is a bad thing!" ”
"The last time I woke up was last night!"
The queen's heart sank suddenly, and she sighed: "The first thing I do when I wake up is to see Qi'er, but ...... Alas...... Qi'er has no whereabouts at all now! ”
"Don't worry, let the old man give His Majesty a pulse!"
After hearing Hua Tuo's words, the queen stood up without hesitation and said softly: "Old man, please!" ”
Hua Tuo's face was solemn, he sat down slowly near the dragon bed, stretched out two fingers from his right hand, and gently placed them on Emperor Xia's pulse.
"It's ......"
Hua Tuo's heart trembled suddenly, and he checked his pulse again, looked at the queen with a pale face and said, "If it goes on like this, Your Majesty won't survive for half a year!" ”
"Ahh
After the queen heard Hua Tuo's words, she felt that it was dark in front of her eyes, and she fainted directly.
"!"
The palace maids and eunuchs immediately ran forward to support the queen.
"Woo woo woo ......"
The two little palace maids supported the queen, and the queen cried bitterly at this time, and the atmosphere in the entire hall became very solemn.
"Meet the Prime Minister, Mr. Guo, Mr. Zhuge
The little general of the guards outside the hall saw the arrival of the two and was about to go in to report, but he was directly stopped by Zhou Quan.
Several people walked into the hall and looked at the crying queen with their fists clenched.
Several people bowed slightly to the queen and said, "Meet the queen!" ”
"Brother!" The queen watched Zhou Quan and a few people come in, and shouted softly to Zhou Quan.
Although the queen is the mother of a country, but after all, she is a weak woman, if she can play a little woman in front of Emperor Xia, then after Emperor Xia fell ill, this brother is all she expects!
"Sister, don't worry, there is still a way, General Zhao and General Gao have already infiltrated the Northern Desert, and there must be an answer soon!"
Zhou Quan nodded slightly, waved his hand at Hua Tuo, asked him to go down first, and then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty's condition, you are not allowed to chew the root of your tongue outside!" ”
"If you hear it...... The consequence is only one word, death! ”
Zhou Quan looked at these palace maids and eunuchs in the hall, and a killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"No!"
All the palace maids and eunuchs immediately knelt down on their knees and responded.
The queen's face was stunned for a moment, and she asked Zhou Quan, "Is there any news from Qi'er?" ”
"I don't know where it is!"
Zhou Quan nodded solemnly and said softly: "From the clues under the Broken Soul Cliff, and according to what the Orions said, it can be concluded that she must be in the west, either in the Song Kingdom, or in the Qian Kingdom, or the Chu Kingdom!" ”
"Don't worry, my subordinates have arranged for secret agents to go to the Three Kingdoms to find out the news!" Guo Jia said with a smile.
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, and said softly: "I believe that there will be news of the lord soon!" ”
The queen nodded, turned to look at Emperor Xia on the dragon bed, her eyes full of worry......

Qianguo Xianyang Li family!
At dusk, several famous storytellers in the city were invited by Li Jun, and after Li Meng heard it, he hurriedly let them in.
Several storytellers were ecstatic, although they didn't know why Li Jun invited them to come, but storytellers can be said to be the lowest profession, if they can climb to a big family like the Li family of Qianguo, it can be said that their ancestors are smoking.
"I don't know what the head of the Li family is doing when he is looking for the old decay!"
Most of these people are over forty years old, and even one of them has gray temples and looks like he should be nearly sixty years old, in this era, he can be called a long life!
Li Jun smiled faintly, pointed at Li Meng, and said with a smile: "It's not me looking for you, it's my sister looking for you!" ”
"Oh, Miss Li?"
A few people are confused, what connection can everyone have with their storytellers, can't they beat the eight poles?
Li Meng chuckled, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and said softly: "I invite a few people to come here today because I have a script here!" ”
"Script?"
Several people were stunned at the same time, but they didn't expect Li Meng to invite them to come for a script!
Li Meng took out the notebook that had been prepared from his arms, handed it to the old man, and chuckled: "Old man, take a look first!" ”
The old man looked stunned, then nodded and lowered his head.
"Journey to the West"
When Old Master Zhang saw this name, his face was immediately stunned, and when he turned the first page, he was immediately deeply attracted to him.
"The beginning of this "Journey to the West" turned out to be a poem?" A storyteller next to him came up, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but read it out.
"Rebirth: The Great Age of Waves"
"Chaos is not divided into heaven and earth, and no one can see it."
"Since Pangu broke Hongmeng, it has been opened up from Zi Qing Turbidity."
"Covering all living beings and looking up to benevolence, inventing all things is good."
"Predicting the Yuan Gong of Creation and Transformation, we must see the Legend of Journey to the West."
Several other storytellers couldn't help but come up, and when they saw it, their faces were amazed.
"This ...... Is it a myth? ”
With an exclamation, he stopped talking. After a long time, the entire living room was silent, and Li Meng was not in a hurry, just waiting quietly.
On the other hand, those storytellers actually gathered in front of the book.
I was fascinated by it!
However, Li Meng did not rush them, because he only wrote the first five rounds, and it won't be long before he can finish reading.
"This ...... No, what about the back? ”
A storyteller was the first to read it, and suddenly came back to his senses, at this time he had forgotten where he was, and shouted directly.
The rest of the people also came back to their senses, their faces were dull, you know, as a storyteller who has been in the industry for more than ten years, he has seen countless stories. However, at this moment, seeing this "Journey to the West" was involuntarily brought in.
And the storyteller who shouted also came back to his senses, and suddenly smiled awkwardly: "I have no intention of offending Miss Li, please don't blame Miss Li!" ”
"It's okay!"
Li Meng suddenly smiled lightly, paused, and continued to speak: "This book, including the follow-up, Miss Ben can hand it over to you, but ......"
Old Master Zhang couldn't wait to ask: "Miss Li, please speak, as long as you can use the old place, the old man will not shirk!" ”
"Haha!"
Li Meng suddenly smiled mysteriously and said softly: "You have to follow my request and be in the ...... tonight"
Old Master Zhang and several other storytellers glanced at each other, and said to Li Meng: "Okay, we have done this!" ”
The storyteller took the script of "Journey to the West" and left with a smile, and Li Jun asked Li Meng, "Sister, can this work?" ”
"Don't worry, brother!"
Li Meng stood up, clasped his hands to his chest, and smiled at Li Jun: "Tonight, we'll know if we go in person!" ”
