Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Recipe for Osmanthus Wine
"The boy doesn't know the taste of sorrow and falls in love with the floor. Fall in love with the floor, and worry about the new words. Now I know the taste of sorrow, and I want to talk about it. I want to say that I will not rest, but I say that the weather is cool and autumn. ”
Li Chengran read Xin Jiaxuan's words softly, Xin Yifan seemed to see a young man climbing an attic alone in his sleep, just like the Hongen Pavilion in his impression, wearing a purple robe, a thin body, and only seeing the back.
Slowly the young man turned around and revealed a face, he couldn't see it really, it was a bit like himself, Xin Yifan wanted to see it clearly, in the dream, he rubbed his eyes again, and that face became Shu Jingyan!
Immediately afterwards, that face turned into Taibai's mask again! Xin Yifan in the dream was shocked, he wanted to rush over to uncover the mask and see the true face under the mask!
"Yifan, Yifan..." Li Chengran's somewhat anxious voice sounded in his ears.
Xin Yifan slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw Li Chengran's beautiful face, there was a look of anxiety on his face.
"Yifan, have a nightmare?" Li Chengran's gentle voice sounded.
"Chengran, how long have I been asleep?" Xin Yifan looked at Li Chengran and asked with sleepy eyes.
"It's been almost a day and a night!" Li Chengran smiled slightly.
"Ah, I've slept for so long!" Xin Yifan said, and got up from the bed.
"Did Xu Changfeng pat his ass again and walked away, without taking away a cloud. Xin Yifan said with a headache.
"I'll leave you a letter this time. Li Chengran couldn't help but laugh, covered his mouth, and then handed Xu Changfeng's letter to Xin Yifan.
"This Xu Changfeng is really a wonderful person, he still uses a letter writing method, he still uses a brush, and he wants me to find a piece of your spirit bone as a paperweight, I also have a long insight. Li Chengran said with a smile again.
In this era of highly developed information and communication tools, there are indeed too few people who write letters, and the implication is that serious people, who still writes!
Xin Yifan took out the stationery in the envelope and looked at it, and the content was as follows:
Place the osmanthus in a ventilated and cool place to spread out and air dry, fumigate it with a steamer for two hours, add three taels of powdered rock sugar to each catty of osmanthus and mix well, put it into the wine and let it ferment for 36 hours (remember, the hours are not too much, and they are not less!).
After fermented osmanthus, add 50 grams of wolfberry, 50 grams of Guiyuan meat, 10 grams of white ginseng, and 50 grams of red dates per catty for later use.
Prepare a number of porcelain wine jars, put in fermented osmanthus, wolfberry, guiyuan meat, white ginseng and red dates, add strong liquor, and seal them with mud. Buried in the courtyard between the osmanthus tree and the ginkgo tree.
After March, it will be reserved for hospitality.
What the hell is this!
The recipe for osmanthus wine?
Xin Yifan's face was full of question marks! Li Chengran became happier the more he laughed, and finally turned into laughter, and he didn't stop it for a while.
"Cheng Ran, don't laugh, have you already seen it?" Xin Yifan asked with a wry smile.
"Of course I saw it, I watched him write, didn't he want to use spirit bones as a paperweight, no matter how careless I am, I have to look at it!" Li Chengran said with laughter panting with laughter, holding his stomach.
"Then why does he just have a blank piece of paper?" Xin Yifan asked again.
The letter left by Xu Changfeng has words on one page and blank on one page. The word is the recipe of the osmanthus wine.
"I didn't pay attention to this, maybe I just put it in casually, he should be drunk like that. Lee Seung-ran was still smiling.
"What about the Yuanjue master?" Xin Yifan asked again.
He watched Xu Changfeng finish writing, and several people left. Li Chengran said.
Xin Yifan nodded, and then smiled bitterly, this Xu Changfeng is really a wonderful person, he speaks and does things in an eclectic way. This is also, I sent myself a task, and next time I come, I have to drink osmanthus wine.
Calculate the time, three months is the Mid-Autumn Festival. It's really good at picking time.
After laughing, Xin Yifan pulled Li Chengran and prepared to go to the courtyard to sit, lying on the bed for so long, he felt uncomfortable.
The two sat in the courtyard, enjoying the breeze of the early summer evening in the border city, watching the corners of the small courtyard piled up with wine barrels.
Xin Yifan asked casually: "Cheng Dye, how could Xu Changfeng think of using spirit bones as paperweights, where did you find spirit bones?"
"Usually you don't have it with you, but when they came that day, I guess you must have put it under the pillow, so I went to look for it, and I guessed it. Li Chengran said to Xin Yifan, showing a charming smile.
Xin Yifan smiled and didn't speak, just looked at Li Chengran, everything was silent.
It wasn't until it was dark that Chen Xia, Xin Jianguo and Li Mo came back, and when they asked, they all went to the square to watch the lantern show.
Seeing that Xin Yifan woke up, Chen Xia complained for a while, saying that Xin Yifan was so old, and it was not worry-free, and he really needed to find a wife to take care of it.
Li Chengran's cheeks turned crimson when he said this, and he said secretly, is this urging marriage?
Xin Yifan could only listen to his mother's chatter. After Chen Xia finished speaking, she pulled Li Chengran to chat, and Xin Yifan, who looked at the intimacy of the two, was also a little envious, I really couldn't see that Li Chengran had only been in contact with his mother for a short time, and the two of them had nothing to talk about.
When he returned to the room at night, Xin Yifan thought about his mother's words, and thought about whether he wanted to confess his heart to Li Chengran.
However, thinking of the predicament he was facing now, he hesitated a little, Taibai and the Holy Sect were like two sharp swords hanging over his head! Now thinking about whether marriage would harm Li Chengran, and if he had children in the future, wouldn't he have to face countless threats like himself, was this fair?
Thinking of these, Xin Yifan couldn't help but take out the spirit bone under the pillow again, and sighed in his heart, it was all the spirit bone that was to blame, if he hadn't touched the spirit bone at the beginning, would he not have the trouble he has now.
Hey! Something is wrong! Xin Yifan noticed that the rune on a section of the spirit bone had disappeared at this time!
For fear that he had seen it wrong, Xin Yifan deliberately took the spirit bone under the lamp and took a closer look, and he was indeed not mistaken, the runes on the ulnar bone really disappeared! Red and blue silk threads appeared inside the spirit bone.
Xin Yifan immediately walked out of his bedroom and knocked on Li Chengran's door.
Li Chengran opened the door with a mask, and when she saw that it was Xin Yifan, she was slightly stunned and asked, "Yifan, what's wrong?"
"Cheng Ran, tell me, last night, which piece of spirit bone did Xu Changfeng use to make a paperweight? Then he took out the ulna and handed it to Li Chengran's eyes.
"Hmm... It seems that what happened?" asked Li Chengran puzzled.
Xin Yifan immediately entered Li Chengran's room, took Li Chengran's hand and said, "Chengran, look, the runes outside this spirit bone have disappeared!"
Seeing that Li Chengran still didn't quite understand, Xin Yifan said excitedly: "Look at these two sections again, there are runes outside, do you remember the spirit bone you got in the Maitreya Buddha statue before? The runes on it are very shallow, you are looking at the current section, the runes are gone!" Xin Yifan danced and gestured to Li Chengran.
"Aren't these all spirit bones?" asked Li Chengran still very puzzled.
"Yes, they are all spirit bones, but you don't know, the spirit bones with runes are not able to obtain the power above at all, but after the runes disappear, the red and blue lines inside will appear, and then it will be easier to obtain the power above! Xin Yifan explained, apparently he was still immersed in excitement and happy like a child.
"Oh, I see, the runes on the outside are like seals, and now they're unsealed, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's what it means!Let's get started!" Xin Yifan said happily.
"Ah, what's the beginning?" can hear Lee Seung-ran's shyness through the mask.
"Sense with the spirit bones! We need strength now! With strength, I can protect you!" Xin Yifan said solemnly.
After Li Chengran heard this, he nodded, took off the mask, went to wash his face, and cooperated with Xin Yifan to start the spirit bone induction method.
This unsealed spirit bone released a huge amount of energy, so that the two who were prepared still felt the huge power of the spirit bone, this power hit the brains and bodies of the two very uncomfortable, but soon both of them were immersed in it.
An endless starry sky appeared in the minds of the two of them, and the space was constantly expanding. Then the space began to distort, the process of distortion was like the appearance of the Riemann surface, the whole space moved in a spiral, and the speed became faster and faster, just like seeing the world with a kaleidoscope, and finally the speed of rotation was so fast that it was impossible to see clearly, and the huge space gradually became countless tiny dots.
Neither of them could remember in which direction the space was rotating, neither clockwise nor counterclockwise, it was not the result of eye observation, it was the scene presented in the mind!
As the rotation accelerated, the entire space slowly gathered into dots, and then disappeared, and suddenly, where these dots disappeared, as if an explosion had occurred, countless energy points were generated out of thin air, and began to scatter in all directions.
This is like opening a new horizon, these energy points are getting bigger and bigger, and then turning into mist, the two of them can't see what is in these fogs, the whole fog looks a little like a nebula, look closer and more like a hairball, they can only feel that there are flickering points of light in these fogs from time to time, but they can't catch the traces of light points.
Slowly, the misty nebula dispersed, and I saw the dark middle part, a graphite-like substance, and not as black as graphite so that I couldn't see the light, but could go to the inside and arrange patterns like "dense paving", these patterns were regular and orderly, but they were constantly changing.
Xin Yifan felt that this was like a huge model of atomic nuclei and electrons, and in his limited physical cognition, he could only think about it, this was not something that he and Li Chengran could recognize.
Perception continued to penetrate deep into the "atomic nucleus", and the two of them seemed to have entered another world in their minds, where they could only "see" countless fluctuating strings, some long and some short, some fluctuating extremely fast, some fluctuating extremely slowly.
The strings gradually began to converge and became runes!
Xin Yifan looked at these strings that turned into runes in surprise, and slowly returned to reality.
Both saw a hint of horror in each other's eyes. What did you just go through?
