The drunkard half-lay on the stone steps of the waist pass, swaying the wine gourd with a "jingling" sound, looking at the thick fog, and said with a smile: "Exquisite drunk, life is empty, a cup of drunk and flashy, the real dream wakes up is a guest from another country, thousands of words." Sorrow relieves the youthful ambition, and it is difficult to be old and have a good nature. I am self-assured, I sit and watch the court, the flowers bloom, and the way of heaven and earth is greater. ”

Since ancient times, drunkenness has been an important way for artists in ancient China to free themselves from the shackles and gain artistic creativity.

With heaven and earth as one dynasty, ten thousand periods as a moment, the sun and the moon have a barrier, and the eight wildernesses are the courts.

The curtain is swept over the ground, and it is indulged as it is.

Drunk and drunk, suddenly awakened, quietly heard the sound of thunder, and did not see the shape of the mountains.

I don't feel the cold and heat cut the muscles, and the feelings of desire. Looking down on all things, disturbing is like duckweed carried by Jiang Han. This realm of "supreme people" is a typical embodiment of the spirit of the Chinese Dionysian.

Since ancient times, the ancestors of China have said that wine is made by the "wine star" in the sky.

The record about the constellation of the wine flag: "The south star of the right corner of Xuanyuan is called the wine flag, the flag of the wine official, and the main banquet is eaten." ”

Xuanyuan, known as the star name in ancient times, has a total of seventeen stars, twelve of which belong to the constellation of Leo.

The wine flag is three-star, arranged in the shape of "one", and the willow house of the twenty-eight houses in the south is a star.

On a clear night, carefully search the sky against the star map, Regulus 14 in Leo and Nakshatra 1 in the 28 Nakshatras of Hydra are bright and easy to find, while the wine flag is too small or too distant to be discernible with the naked eye.

The discovery of the Wineflag Star, the incorruptibility of the Twenty-Eight Nights, is one of the great discoveries of ancient astronomy.

At that time, when the astronomical scientific instruments were extremely rudimentary, it was a miracle that these not very bright "wine flag stars" could be observed in the vast stars, and they were named and left various records and legends about the wine flag stars.

Broadly speaking, there are two kinds of ancient liquor: one is colored liquor made from fruit grains, and the other is distilled liquor.

Colored wine originated in ancient times, and wine originated in ancient times and the Shennong era.

Therefore, there is a saying that "Yi Di started to make, wine mash, changed five flavors, and Shaokang made straw wine", Yi Di and Shaokang are all from the Xia Dynasty.

This kind of wine is probably made of fruits, flowers and trees, not cereals, because cereal wine should have originated after the prosperity of agriculture.

In ancient times, there were many apes in the mountains, and they were good at picking flowers and making wine.

The woodcutter enters the mountain, and the one who gets its nest has more than a few stones, and the fragrance of drinking is abnormal, and the famous ape wine.

In the life of the ancestors in the lush vegetation and the mountains of flowers and fruits, it was possible to pick flowers and make wine.

Agricultural products are abundant, and it is inevitable to use them to make wine.

It is said that apes are very agile animals, they live in the deep mountains and forests, they are impermanent, difficult to catch, after careful observation, people found that apes are "addicted to alcohol".

As a result, people put sweet and rich wine on the place where the apes haunted.

The ape smelled the fragrance, lingering in front of the vat, and then carefully dipping and sucking the wine.

After a long time, he finally couldn't resist the temptation of fine wine, and drank freely, until he was drunk and caught.

This method of capturing apes is not unique to China, and the Yi people and the exotic indigenous peoples also use similar methods to catch apes or gorillas.

The apes were not only fond of alcohol, but also "made sake", which is recorded in ancient historical texts.

The ape tastes the ape wine in the depths of the rock, and the ape wine is made of rice and flowers, and there are five or six liters of one hundred and six rolls, and the taste is the most spicy, but it is extremely rare.

In ape settlements, something resembling "wine" is often found.

The origin of wine can also be deduced from this, when it begins with fruit fermentation, because it is much easier to ferment than grains.

Liquor is a fermented food that is produced by the breakdown of sugars by microorganisms called yeast.

Wild fruits in the mountains and forests are an important food for apes.

In the ripening season of fruits, apes store a large number of fruits in the "stone depression", and the accumulated fruits are fermented by the action of yeast in nature, and a liquid called "wine" is precipitated in the stone depression, so it is logical and reasonable for the apes to "make" wine unconsciously.

One saying is that "Yi Di makes wine, and Du Kang makes wine".

Literally, they are making different wines.

"Dial" is a kind of glutinous rice fermented and processed into "vinegar lees", which is soft in nature and sweet in taste.

In many families, homemade vinegar dregs are still made.

The vinegar lees are white and delicate, and the thick dregs can be used as a staple food, and the clear juice on it is quite close to wine.

"Forest", another name for sorghum.

Du Kang makes forest liquor, which means that the raw material used in Du Kang's sake making is sorghum.

From this point of view, Yi Di is the founder of rice wine, and Du Kangneng is the founder of sorghum wine.

Another saying is that "the prosperity of wine originates from the emperor and becomes Yidi".

It means that since the time of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors in ancient times, there have been various methods of making wine that have been popular among the people, and it is Yi Di who summarized these methods of making wine and passed them on to later generations.

There is also a saying that Du Kang "has an inexhaustible meal, an empty mulberry, a taste of gloom, and a long time of accumulation. ”

This means that Du Kang placed the uneaten leftovers in the tree cavity of the mulberry garden, and the leftovers fermented in the tree cavity, and a fragrant smell came out.

This is the way of wine, and Du Kang is the ancestor of winemaking.

As one of the five emperors of antiquity, Yao is said to have been transformed by a true dragon, and the lower realm guides the people's livelihood.

He led the people to share weal and woe, develop agriculture, and properly handle all kinds of government affairs, which was supported by the people and praised by many tribal leaders.

Because it is transformed by a dragon, it is particularly sensitive to aura.

Attracted by the aura of the dripping pool, everyone was brought to live here in peace, and the aura of this place was used to develop agriculture, so that the people could live and work in peace and contentment.

In order to thank God and pray for the future, Yao will select the best grain, soak it in dripping pool water, remove all impurities with special techniques, and quench out the essence of the water to brew blessings, this water is clear and pure, fragrant and long, in order to pay tribute to God, and distribute it to the people to celebrate their well-being.

In order to be grateful to Yu Yao, the people named the water of prayer "Huayao".

In fact, there was a history of winemaking in the Neolithic civilization.

A large number of pottery vessels, wine vessels, and exquisite bronze vessels unearthed still silently confirm the glory of the wine civilization here in ancient times.

The combination of wine and medicine is an important innovation in the history of China's pharmaceutical development.

In ancient times, "wine" was written as "unitary", unitary, and it was also made in August, which can be wine-resistant.

The "just" here means "ripe", and "millet cheng" can be used to make wine, millet, sweet and flat in nature, nourishing qi and tonifying the middle, isn't it also medicine?

In ancient times, the word "medicine" was derived from unitary (wine), which illustrated the close relationship between wine and medicine, so later generations had the saying that "wine is the long of a hundred medicines".

Medicinal liquor is used in the prevention and treatment of diseases, and has been in an important position in the history of medicine, becoming one of the traditional dosage forms with a long history.

As a wonderful flower in the treasure house of medicine, the emergence of medicinal wine is first due to the discovery of wine by human beings, and its development is due to the continuous progress and improvement of winemaking technology.

Proper drinking can dispel wind, relax muscles and invigorate blood, drive away cold and warm up the body, eliminate accumulation and strengthen the spleen and calm the nerves, and has a certain effect of curing diseases and health care.

For the tasting and appraisal of beverage wine, the Chinese people are accustomed to calling it wine evaluation.

Wine evaluation is both a technique and an art.

It is said to be a technology because it is necessary to use two methods of physical and chemical identification and sensory identification to evaluate various beverage wines; it is said to be an art because the styles formed by the color, aroma, taste and body of different wines give people different feelings and enjoyment, so that people can "know the taste and drink".

Of course, only those who can appreciate this mystery can talk about wine evaluation.

If he smells the wine and retreats, it can only be said that God has not blessed him with this blessing.

Wine is "the beauty of the sky", and those who are blessed are also blessed, and those who cannot enjoy this blessing will naturally be blessed.

However, even if they are blessed people, they do not choose their fragrance, do not distinguish their ambiguity, do not think about their products, do not explore their interests, do not refuse to come, only care about cattle drinks, sweet potatoes and dried seed wine, and medicinal alcohol mixed with white water also quench their cravings, and they can't drink the feeling of art, and they can't drink the taste, which seems to be a kind of sadness again.

All wine is holy with clear color and cold taste.

The color is like gold and mellow and bitter is virtuous.

Those who leave the country are foolish. Take the glutinous intoxicating person as a gentleman.

Those who are intoxicated with wax are the middle people.

The person who is drunk with soju in the alley is the villain.
