And state, Jiuyuan County, Bianyun County.

In a dilapidated log cabin, there was a heated argument.

"No, Lao Tzu can't stand that kind of bird spirit anymore, I have to join the army."

"Brother Feng, calm down, I said that you are a scholar, why is your temper bigger than mine? I do odd jobs in those big families every day, and I suffer more than you, and I haven't seen such a big anger as you, not to mention that Brother Cao Xing didn't tell us? Don't go to ......."

With a creak, the door of the house was pushed open directly, and Cao Xing walked in from the outside, and there were two young people, similar in age to him, one was five big and three thick, some tigers, and the other was a little thin, but his eyes were full of shrewdness.

"Hehe, Brother Cao Xing, you're back, I was still discussing with Fengyun there just now, and you've changed a little bit lately!" The big man touched his head and smiled.

The young man named Fengyun also consciously closed his mouth and stopped speaking when he saw Cao Xing coming.

Cao Xing's mind quickly filtered it, and he immediately remembered the information about these two people.

Cao Xing was born in Bingzhou, which was a bitter cold land during the Three Kingdoms period, and there were Xianbei invasions from time to time, which made Bingzhou even more depressed.

The guy who looks stronger is called Chen Hu, a blacksmith, Cao Xingxiao's playmate, the two grew up together, and their parents were also killed during an alien invasion, so the two have relied on each other until now.

As for Fengyun, he is from the next village, has a little money at home, has been in private school for a few years, and can read and write.

It is said that when Fengyun was born, his mother died of dystocia, and his father died of illness not long after, so the three of them were orphans and grew up together.

For his two brothers, Cao Xing naturally cherishes them in every way.

Cao Xuan just came to this world a week ago, his eyes were full of confusion, and thanks to the enlightenment of the two of them, otherwise he would suddenly enter a strange world, I am afraid that Cao Xing's whole person would collapse.

The three of them depend on each other for their lives, every day for their livelihood, everyone runs around, Cao Xing has a magical archery skill, and often goes up the mountain to hunt.

And Chen Hu went to the rich and noble to work for others, while Feng Yun went to a restaurant to work as a partner.

It was not easy for the three of them to live, but just two weeks ago, the state of Assassin Stingyuan issued a conscription order.

At that time, Cao Xing and the three of them felt that if they went to be soldiers, it would be better than messing around here, and the three of them all had some martial arts in their hands, and they would not go hungry when they went to the barracks, so they immediately hit it off.

It's just that on that day, Cao Xing suddenly fainted inexplicably, and it took several days for Cao Xing to wake up, and Cao Xing from the 21st century at that time had been attached to his body.

When he heard the news, his nerves jumped suddenly.

Maybe his two brothers don't know the direction of history, but Cao Xing is very clear, in history, what is the final fate of his two brothers, this is unknown, because history has not recorded.

But Cao Xing knew that if he let his two brothers join the army with him this time, then it would be nothing more than repeating the trajectory of history, and it would be valued by Lu Bu because of his archery skills and become one of the eight strong generals, but in the end, the fate of death was inevitable.

And his two brothers estimated that the end would not be much better, and when they thought of this Cao Xing, they resolutely rejected this proposal.

He asked his two brothers not to be in a hurry and go back to do their jobs first, while he picked up the bow and arrow handed down by their family with the mentality of gambling, and finally the opening scene appeared.

Seeing Cao Xuan walk in, Chen Hu hurriedly picked up a jar and poured wine into the bowl: "Brother Cao, where have you been in the past three days, which has made us so worried!" ”

Cao Xing looked left and right at the wooden house they rented, it was only 20 square meters, surrounded by yellow mud buttresses and broken walls.

Originally, the three of them had a bad life, but in the territory of Bingzhou, they not only had to face the harassment of Xianbei, but the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out a few years ago, which made the people's lives even more miserable.

The three of them all make a living by working part-time jobs for others, and it is naturally impossible to live comfortably.

Cao Xuan took a sip of the rice wine in the bowl, pursed his lips lightly, he looked at the bowl of wine with some suspicion, after a while, there seemed to be some bright eyes, and a trace of clarity flashed in his eyes, he looked up at his two brothers, and finally said.

"Don't worry, two brothers, please believe what I said a few days ago, if the three of us go to join the army together, we won't get any bright future, not to mention that in these years, there are chaos and wars everywhere, and we can only rush to the front line as cannon fodder to help others earn credit!"

Hearing Cao Xuan take the initiative to mention this matter, Chen Hu and Feng Yun both chose not to speak, but Cao Xuan could still see from their eyes that they were a little unwilling.

Indeed, although it is not necessary to get any good fame by joining the army, let alone in this troubled era, after joining the army, at least there is a full meal to eat, unlike now, living a hungry and full life.

Cao Xing took in the expressions of the two of them, he smiled, and then said: "If the two brothers can still trust me Cao, please give me three days, I will definitely make our family situation change!" ”

"Big, big brother, no, we ......" Chen Hu's tone suddenly became a little flustered, although Cao Xing's tone was relaxed, but everyone could hear it, Cao Xing had already used such language, undoubtedly telling Chen Hu and Fengyun one thing, that is, if you can trust him Cao Xing's words, stay here, if you can't believe it, you can go to the army now.

The three of them grew up together, and they were helpless in this world, how could they say that they would be divided, so Fengyun and Chen Hu both stood up and looked at Cao Xing and nodded.

However, Chen Hu and Feng Yun agreed happily, but in the next few days, the two of them were dumbfounded, and they both felt that their hearts were dripping blood.

Every day, Chen Hu and Fengyun came back from doing short-term work, and they were all tired, which was not only physical exhaustion, but also mental exhaustion.

However, when they returned with their tired bodies, they reached out and tried to scoop a sip of wine from the jar, but they were shocked to find that there was no wine in the jar.

Looking at Cao Xuan again, at this moment, Cao Xuan put all the fine wine they brewed under a pot, and there was a raging fire under the pot, and on the surface, there was continuous evaporation of water vapor, but on the top of this pot, Cao Xuan didn't know where to find a huge vessel.

The vessel tends to go downward, and the evaporated gases of the wine adhere to the vessel at the height, but the vessel tends diagonally downward, and finally concretizes this drop into a liquid that falls into another vessel.

Seeing this, Chen Hu and Feng Yun were both completely dumbfounded, they were poor families, and their only hobby was to come back from a short job every day and drink two sips, but Cao Xing had already squandered all their wine in just a few days.

Both of them were dumbfounded, but now Cao Xuan is like a demon, and he can't listen to anyone's words, he only knows what to drum up for him.

For the first time, when the liquid in the pot boils to a certain extent, Cao Xing always extinguishes the fire under it with a handful of water, and then ignites the fire again after the temperature has completely cooled down.

However, no matter what Chen Hu and Fengyun said, Cao Xing couldn't listen to it now, and finally 5 days passed.

When Chen Hu and Feng Yun came back with their tired bodies in tow that night, Cao Xuan stopped what he was doing.

He took two bowls of wine and put them in front of Fengyun and Chen Hu, looking at Cao Xing, although he was smiling, his face was also full of exhaustion, Chen Hu and Fengyun both glanced at each other, they knew that these days, Cao Xing was not easy.

Before the two could speak, Cao Xuan smiled and said, "Two brothers, please try my homemade formula wine!" ”

As soon as Cao Xuan said this, Chen Hu and Feng Yun became even more suspicious in their hearts, they had been drinking this wine for a few years, what could be the different recipe, but when they thought of Cao Xing taking all the wine they had saved to make this thing, now they couldn't even drink a sip of wine, and the two of them were not ambiguous, so they directly picked up the wine bowl and poured it down in a big gulp.

Cao Xuan looked at them so wolfing and wanted to dissuade them, but it was too late.

Originally, when the two of them were drinking, they had a little whisper in their hearts, because it was this thing that caused them to have no wine to drink now, so they drank very violently, but when Fengyun drank halfway, he felt that he couldn't drink anymore.

At that moment, Feng Yun directly put down the wine bowl, and a large gulp of wine spurted out of his throat.

Cao Xuan hurriedly patted Feng Yun's back and shook his head helplessly.

The liquor made by Cao Xing is actually distilled liquor, and the degree of distilled liquor is relatively high, and it can even be said that it has completely leaped over the era of the Three Kingdoms. The earliest recorded history is in the Song Dynasty.

During the Three Kingdoms period, most of the liquor was fermented wine, which is commonly known as rice wine, and some grains were soaked in water, and then left for fermentation, which formed fermented wine, but the degree of this fermented wine was relatively low, only a few degrees.

Cao Xing, who was used to drinking liquor in his previous life, felt a little uncomfortable when he drank rice wine for the first time.

Cao Xing thought about it for a while and had a feeling, so he began to make distilled spirits, Cao Xing also drank the distilled liquor it brewed, I have to say that the taste is average, but the degree is still relatively high, about 40 degrees.

Feng Yun had never drunk such a high number of wine, but now he suddenly poured it down, how could he stand it?

Cao Xing just wanted to persuade Feng Yun to say a few words, but Feng Yun's cough was just right, and after only hesitating for a moment, he poured the remaining half of the wine down again.

At this moment, Chen Hu next to him also put down the big bowl, coughed twice, his face was a little flushed, and then looked at Cao Xing, his eyes were shining with golden light, and he said loudly: "This wine is so strong!" ”
