Volume 1 Chapter 67 Four Kings and Three Fruits
The brewing of fruit wine is actually not a difficult task, but a kind of fruit wine is easy to brew, and the four kings and three fruits have a total of seven different flavors and materials together, and it is not a simple matter to make a fine wine.
It's too miscellaneous, plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, peach, plum, apricot, fruity, floral, leafy, patchwork, and the taste is messy and difficult to balance.
But these are not big problems for Tang Letian, he is obsessed with good wine, and he is very, very good at wine flavoring.
Perennial battles are outside, no matter how good a wine is, it will be boring, at this time, Tang Lotian brews some different flavors of wine by himself.
Generally, to make fruit wine, you need a layer of pulp and a layer of sugar, layer by layer, and then pour in the best pure grain liquor, and then seal and store it for a good time.
But for immortal cultivators, these processes are not necessary, and they can directly extract the fruity juice in the fruit and mix it into wine.
Therefore, for making this kind of Sijun Sanguo wine, the most difficult thing is to flavor it!
How to make the aroma of the four gentlemen and three fruits do not conflict with each other, and at the same time, it can be easily tasted and identified in the case of integration, which is the biggest difficulty, and at the same time, the top notes, middle notes, and base notes of the wine aroma must also be considered.
All the flavors need to burst out on the palate, each one clearly visible, but one with the wine.
The layering of the wine on the taste buds after the entrance, the lingering aroma after entering the throat, and the endless aftertaste after entering the stomach must be considered by the winemaker as a whole.
Tang Letian's previous method of refining wine with innate qi can be said to have no technical threshold, as long as a Danshi who can extract innate qi can learn it after reading it, but when it comes to bartending, the spirituality is not enough, the consciousness is insufficient, even if Tang Letian teaches it hand-in-hand, he can't learn it!
What is needed for perfumery is a feeling, which is extremely subtle, especially the aroma of the pulp extracted by the fairy method, which is concentrated to the extreme, and the slightest gap in the preparation will make the bartending fail!
Tang Lotian looked at the messy room and said, "Master, I don't have a place to find Mei Lan, Zhu Ju and three kinds of fruits!"
As soon as the sleeves of Zhen Jiuxiao's robe were unfurled, a lot of flowers and fruits immediately rolled out of it.
Tang Lotian looked at these fruits, as well as the wine jar in the corner of the wall, and after patting the sealing mud on the wine jar, a faint fragrance came out of it.
Tang Lotian couldn't help but pick up the wine jar and take a sip, then nodded again and again, and then said with some regret: "It's a pity that such a good wine is used to make fruit wine!"
Tang Lotian said, but his hands and feet did not stop, and the flowers and fruits were arranged in different categories.
Immediately, Tang Letian looked at Zhen Jiuxiao and said, "Ten Guben Pills!"
Zhen Jiuxiao sneered, stretched out his hand, and ten pills flew out of the cabinet in the corner.
Tang Letian carefully stared at the cabinet of the flying pills, and said in shock: "It's not enough to lie to my Guben Pill, are you thinking about stealing my pill?"
Tang Lotian laughed dryly and said, "That's there, that's there!"
"I gave you ten Guben Dan, but you have to use it in front of me, if you can't use it up, take care of your flesh and skin!"
Tang Lotian said disappreciably: "What's the big deal about just ten Guben Dan, to be honest, ten is not enough, maybe Master, you have to take out four or five more!"
Zhen Jiuxiao laughed when he heard this, and immediately stretched out his hand, and five Guben Dan flew out of the cabinet again.
Zhen Jiuxiao put these Guben Pills on the table, there was a cold glow in his eyes flickering, and he secretly said in his heart: "I will give you the first lesson today, so that you can know that Master's pill is not so easy to deceive!"
Zhen Jiuxiao smiled on his face, but he was really a little angry in his heart, Tang Letian didn't know that he respected teachers and taught him at all, as a master, he asked Tang Letian to do some trivial things, this guy didn't say anything about running around to show himself, he even bargained and wanted benefits, this kind of crooked trend must be suppressed!
Zhen Jiuxiao has made up his mind to tell Tang Letian to endure some hardships!
Of course, Zhen Jiuxiao didn't think that this idea he had at this time had been buried when Tang Letian refused to be his son.
For an arrogant existence like Zhen Jiuxiao, who has already touched the Yuanying realm, it is not a pleasant thing to be rejected.
"Master, why do you have to make this kind of Four Monarchs and Three Fruit Wine? Are you betting with others?" Tang Lotian picked up an apricot on the ground, rubbed it on his body, took a bite, and asked with curiosity on his face.
Zhen Jiuxiao frowned and said: "Where did you get so much nonsense? Hurry up and make wine for me, the wine is brewed, everything is easy to say, it can't be brewed, I'm not afraid to tell you, I will clean you up fiercely!"
Tang Lotian sighed, but felt that his conjecture should be good!
This old guy must have made a bet with someone else, and the stakes are not low, otherwise, how could he be so depressed?
Tang Letian placed the three empty wine jars on the table, took out a Guben Dan, crushed the jade shell on the outside of the Guben Dan, and threw it into his mouth, and then saw that Tang Letian's facial features were so cool that they were all distorted, and a stream of smoke couldn't stop coming out of his mouth, ears, mouth and nose.
Tang Letian, who was so cool, spitted out white smoke while looking at Zhen Jiuxiao and said, "Master, my cultivation is too weak to extract the essence of the fruit, and you have to do it all the time!"
Zhen Jiuxiao frowned: "You kid, isn't it to refine wine after eating a Guben Pill?
The pores on Tang Letian's body began to have smoke slowly coming out at this time, Tang Letian's face was full of comfort, and his voice began to tremble slightly, and said: "Master, didn't I eat a solid pill to make it bigger, I have to digest and digest it, anyway, you have nothing to do, let's save time, you can first extract the essence of the four kings and three fruits! Remember, these essences are held separately, don't mix them together." ”
Zhen Jiuxiao squinted his eyes, suddenly became gentle, and even smiled, "Okay, good!"
Tang Letian peeked at it and could clearly feel the murderous intent in the heart of this old man.
However, Tang Lotian is not afraid of this old thing at all, since he determined that this guy is a good drinker and is obsessed with wine, and asked him to make Sijun Sanguo wine, Tang Lotian is no longer afraid of shaking Jiuxiao.
Because only he can brew these four gentlemen and three fruit wines, and Zhen Jiuxiao only needs to drink a sip, and he can't do without this wine for the rest of his life.
Tang Lotian was determined to shake Jiuxiao, so he was presumptuous!
Zhen Jiuxiao personally took action and took pictures of Meilan, bamboo chrysanthemum, and peach and apricot plums.
With the means of Zhen Jiuxiao, Meilan, bamboo, chrysanthemum, peach, apricot and plum all withered, and a series of mist evaporated from it, which gathered into clouds in the air, colorful and fragrant.
Tang Lotian nodded, then he spit out a mouthful of exhaust gas, stretched out his hand and kept pointing in the clouds, one by one the clouds were pinched in Tang Letian's hands, gathered into a cloud of qi, Tang Letian constantly adjusted the proportion of Meilan, bamboo, chrysanthemum, peach and apricot plum in this cloud qi, this process is very long.
Zhen Jiuxiao watched from the sidelines, at first he didn't think there was anything, but when Tang Letian deployed for a whole hour, the expression on Zhen Jiuxiao's face changed slightly.
Because the smell of the cloud in front of Tang Letian is gradually changing, the taste in the original cloud is mixed, and the smell of the four monarchs and three fruits conflicts with each other, and the chaos is like the chaos before the beginning of the heaven and earth.
But now, the seven flavors have the feeling that they are gradually coming together.
Tang Letian grabbed another Guben Pill and was about to throw it into his mouth, Zhen Jiuxiao said: "Do you want to die? Eat two Guben Dan? Even a real Danshi can only take one a day!"
Tang Letian didn't care: "It's okay, my physique is different from ordinary people, and I can accommodate more True Yuan!"
Tang Lotian said casually and swallowed the Guben Pill into his stomach!
Of course, Tang Letian's words are true, but it is not him who can accommodate the true yuan, but the law of cause and effect that does not know where is hidden in his body!
The Law of Cause and Effect was greedily devouring the True Yuan in the Guben Pill at this time, and said, "Give me more True Yuan, I feel like I'm about to break through the current bottleneck!"
When Tang Lotian heard this, his heart moved slightly, but he still continued to deploy the cloud qi in front of him quietly.
Zhen Jiuxiao stood beside him, watching fixedly.
Time passed little by little, a full three hours, during which Tang Letian ate two solid pills in succession, after Zhen Jiuxiao reminded him once, seeing that Tang Letian had no problems at all, he was surprised in his heart, and he didn't pursue it, everyone has everyone's adventures, for example, Tang Jiuqu has a pseudo-pill, and he has achieved a natural golden pill in his mother's womb for three years, which is the experience of young people, and it cannot be copied, so there is no need to explore.
Tang Lotian finally straightened up and said, "You can give it a try!"
Zhen Jiuxiao was even more anxious than Tang Letian, and immediately knocked open all the mud seals of a jar of wine stored in the house.
Then Zhen Jiuxiao suddenly realized something, and after a pause, he sat back in his chair and looked at Tang Letian.
Tang Letian knew that Zhen Jiuxiao was self-contained and unwilling to do it himself.
Tang Lotian actually didn't want to shake Jiuxiao to do it, the preparation of flower and fruit puree was only half of the success of refining wine, and the subsequent blending was also very important.
Tang Lotian has to do it himself, and he can't fake others.
