In the early morning, the people in Chang'an City were still busy lighting a fire for breakfast, and the "Drunken Immortal Building" in the west of Andingfang had come one after another. "Drunken Immortal Building" - the name is very good, in fact, it is a small restaurant, and the dishes often cut corners, add less salt and the like. Purely relying on the proprietress of the original Shanxi area, her home-brewed bamboo leaf green wine attracts business. As for the blind Qin, it is because of the good taste of this family's bamboo leaf green wine, that he likes to come here for a drink in his spare time.

Xia Fanxing and Qin Blind were sitting in a corner of the second floor of the restaurant, drinking the famous bamboo leaf green wine in this area with a few side dishes.

Qin Blind went home and brought out his headscarf, but he was only recognized by the boss and the proprietress who were already familiar with him at the counter.

The two were waiting for Li He to come after a drink, when the fat boss suddenly walked upstairs, carrying a pot of freshly brewed bamboo leaves in his hand, walked to the two of them, and gently touched the sleeve of Qin's blind man.

"Hey, Boss Liu is so idle today?" Qin Blind didn't turn his head, but said exactly who it was. And Boss Liu was looking at him with a look of embarrassment.

After seeing Qin Blind turn around, Boss Liu immediately had a smile on his face, "Qin Daxia, it's not good that I've seen you here for a long time! This is the newly brewed bamboo leaf green from the mother's house in the cheap one, hasn't it just entered autumn recently, and some early autumn tangerine peel has been added to it, and the taste is better." This Taoist leader also tastes it?"

"Sit, sit down and drink together. Blind Qin moved his body to make way for Boss Liu.

Xia Fanxing poured himself a cup first, put it to his face and sniffed it vigorously. Zhuye Qingjiu has a variety of aromas, but each one is not particularly revealed, so its smell is particularly unique and mellow. Xia Fanxing's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, and a stream of aura spread from his lungs to his mouth, turning into cold and slowly spitting on the wine glass, and then drank the whole glass of wine in one gulp, and couldn't help but praise after drinking.

"Haha, we have to drink it frozen to be cool. This pot of wine was given to the two of you to drink, everyone is free!" Boss Liu was very satisfied with Xia Fanxing's reaction, and poured himself a glass and drank it all.

Blind Qin chatted casually with Boss Liu, and introduced Xia Fanxing to him, of course, he didn't say that he was a disciple of Tu Feng Sect. After a while, Boss Liu suddenly sighed.

Blind Qin seemed to have anticipated this, and said, "Boss Liu, if there is something, say." ”

"It's nothing... It's my mother-in-law's bamboo leaf green that is particularly special, and the formula is an heirloom. But a few days ago, I accompanied her back to her parents' house on the Qixi Festival, and it happened that the bamboo leaf county order of her small county had a birthday, and she usually came to her house to buy wine, so she invited us to drink at his house... He brought a bottle of bamboo leaf green, saying that it was brought from Chang'an City, and he wanted to compare it with my mother-in-law's bamboo leaf green wine... My mother-in-law told me privately that the taste is similar to her home-brewed Zhuye Qingjiu, and we also sell this kind of wine in Chang'an City... Later, I drank the same type of wine again, but after drinking it, it was really the same, and the taste of the county order family was a little worse... I wondered, could it be that the recipe of the wine we sold in the restaurant was seen through?"

Qin Blind suddenly became alert, and motioned with his hand for the three of them to come closer and speak.

"Wouldn't it be that the little county order has studied the bamboo leaf green wine of the proprietres's house?" Xia Fanxing asked in a low voice.

"No... The bottle was indeed brewed by a small brewery in the East Market, and there was a mark on the bottle. But I've been to that little brewery, and the business is very bleak, so I can't come up with the same recipe as we do... And I went there once recently, but there was not even a bamboo leaf green wine in it!" Boss Liu looked distressed, the wine recipe handed down from his mother-in-law's family is now used by others. "And she told me that not only is the ingredient rare in that recipe, but the time of brewing is the most important and difficult thing to grasp... So no matter how you look at it, no one can..."

Halfway through speaking, Boss Liu sighed and looked at the blind man Qin helplessly.

"My mother-in-law has been shedding tears alone lately, and when she thinks about it, she ... Alas, my mother's heirloom. This, this inexplicably leaked!Alas..."

"Dao Chief, hero... At this time, Li He, who had just been beaten with twenty boards, came up from the staircase - he was holding a wooden stick in his hand, rubbing his ass with the other, and gasping for cold air in his mouth. This kid had sharp eyes, and as soon as he saw Qin Blind and Xia Fanxing sitting in the corner, he cried out in pain. However, after seeing Boss Liu sitting with the two of them, his face became quite embarrassed and dignified.

And this point was unfortunately captured by Xia Fanxing.

"Stinky boy, hurry up and get here!" Qin Blind shouted angrily, and seeing Boss Liu's surprised face, he roughly told Li He about violating the curfew.

"Alas... It's getting worse and worse lately, and I've started an emergency curfew, and if I catch it, I'll either lose money or get boarded. Boss Liu looked at Li He, who was limping around, and sighed.

"Let's eat something first. Xia Fanxing keenly observed the change in Li He's expression just now, asked the shopkeeper for a few steamed fried dough sticks, pushed a bowl of rice in front of Li He, and didn't let him speak first.

"Boss Liu, what are you talking about, but the variety of bamboo leaf green that I have been drinking some time ago? Li He on the side was indeed hungry, picked up the rice and ate the steamed buns and stuffed his mouth full, after hearing the conversation between several people, his face was stagnant, and he was also seen by Xia Fanxing.

"Yes, yes, yes. ”

"It's... This kind of wine has not been seen anywhere else in Chang'an City except for your restaurant. Qin Blind muttered.

"That's true, but the wine brewed by the winery in Chang'an City has been sold to Shanxi, and it's still our wine. Could it be that they don't plan to sell this kind of bamboo leaf green in Chang'an City?"

"That little brewery must have obtained your recipe through despicable means, but it doesn't dare to sell it in Chang'an City, so Boss Liu, you will know that your things have been stolen... They are just selling the bamboo leaf green wine to other places to make huge profits!And it is secretly made, for fear that someone will find out that they have plagiarized your secret recipe!" Qin Blind said categorically, very sure of his judgment. And Li He, who was eating and drinking, saw this scene, and his face turned white.

Boss Liu was shocked when he heard this, it was obvious that what Qin Blind said had a lot of truth. At this time, Xia Fanxing spoke: "Boss Liu, can you take me a pot of bamboo leaf green that you said to taste?"

"Hmm... No, no problem, the Taoist waits for a moment. Boss Liu walked downstairs tremblingly, obviously frightened by Qin's blind theory.

"Hurry up, is the person who met you a person from this Drunken Immortal Building?" As soon as Boss Liu left, Xia Fanxing immediately pulled Li He beside him and asked.

"What's going on?" asked the blind man Qin a little strangely.

"Chief Xia, don't worry... Woo, choke me. Li He hurriedly swallowed the contents of his mouth, took a breath, and said, "I said that I would definitely tell the two of you, don't worry..."

"Ah Niu, the hero, the very strong young man from Fangxi, who met me, is here to do chores. He was the one who brought a bunch of fakes to my house that day. He's also in that organization, but his status seems to be higher than the others, as if he's been a member for a long time... I was scared to death when I heard Boss Liu say that just now, and I immediately thought that this kid did it..."

"Ah Niu, damn it, that foolish kid, he also did this kind of thing, and he copied the recipe to sell it for money?, that wine shop is not a good thing!" Qin Blind Man was a little surprised, he had been in contact with the restaurant once or twice before, and he really didn't expect that Ah Niu to become this kind of person. kept scolding in his mouth, "Li He, is he still in the city?"

"This... I really don't know..."

"Dao Chief, the taste of this pot of bamboo leaf green is different from the previous pot, you can taste it. As soon as he finished speaking, Boss Liu came up with a new pot of wine. This pot of wine is darker green when poured out, and the aroma is more intense and rich. Boss Liu, who was full of sorrow, opened the wine jug and smelled the aroma of wine, and also showed an intoxicated look.

Xia Fanxing tried to drink it in the previous way, but Boss Liu hurriedly stopped: "Dao Chief, this pot of wine has added an important recipe, which makes the whole pot of bamboo leaves green and warm, and the flavor formula will be directly digested by the saliva in the mouth after the entrance, so as to achieve a change in taste." Drink it directly at room temperature. ”

Xia Fanxing nodded. After a sip of it, your lips and teeth will be fragrant. Xia Fanxing only felt that the strength of the wine was slightly ** into the blood, the whole body was light and fluttering, the mouth turned from bitter to sweet, the taste changed from hard to soft, and after a while, the whole body was refreshed. Even the spiritual qi at the dantian became faster. Such a good wine, but it was stolen, and it was not as good as the original. What a pity!

Boss Liu was overjoyed when he saw Xia Fanxing's praise-isn't it the greatest achievement that his own wine can be so recognized?

"Boss Liu, if you don't have to worry about this matter, how about someone Qin help you investigate?"

And Boss Liu had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and hurriedly saluted and said: "Thank you, Daxia! If Daxia Qin can help me and Lian Nei find out who plagiarized our family recipe, I will definitely use everything to repay Daxia Qin, thank you Daxia!"

Who plagiarized their formula, Xia Fanxing and Qin Blind already knew in their hearts. It's just that he promised Li He to save him a face to continue messing around, so he didn't say anything about that organization. So the blind man Qin asked: "Boss Liu, I have to ask a question first, has anyone in your Drunken Immortal Mansion asked for leave or was dismissed by you recently?"

Boss Liu recalled and said: "Yes, the Ah Niu who served the dishes, I used to talk to you, and a week ago I said that there was something at home and I would go back to my hometown for a month." ”

As soon as these words came out, the three people around knew that something was wrong. But his face didn't show it, he chatted casually, and after a few drinks, Qin Blind got up and beckoned Xia Fanxing and Li He to leave. Boss Liu sent it to the door of the restaurant, Xia Fanxing saw the proprietress who still had the charm on the counter, there seemed to be a little tear in the corner of her eyes, and sighed softly.

"Boss Liu, what's the name of that little wine shop in Dongshi?"

Boss Liu got together and said a name among the three. Blind Qin waved his hand, signaling for him and the proprietress to relax.

"Go back to Jade Zhai first, stinky boy, you can sort out the real thing in your sack for me! Put it back at the counter and sell it! Then follow me and bring back all the fakes sold to me." Tomorrow morning, I will leave for Dongshi and find trouble with that winery! Also, Li He, if you think that you have sold those people and it is not safe to stay here, go with Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu and Xia Fanxing will not come back for three or five days, if you are beaten or even killed, don't blame me for not reminding you!"

Li He hurriedly agreed. It's just that the three of them don't know how much wind and waves this line will set off in Chang'an City.
