Chapter 126: Premonition
After returning from outside the mountain, Liu Xiu began to make wine with all his heart, never thinking that the person who was hammered to death on the road was actually the small leader of an area of the evil organization.
Even if I knew him, I am afraid that I would not care too much......
Deep in the mountains, halfway up the snow-capped mountains, more than 100 meters away from the hot spring hut, Liu Xiu built another shed, which he specially used to make wine.
He chose to make wine here for his own reasons.
The last process of sake brewing is distillation, after the fermented raw materials are heated, the sake will turn into water vapor and rise, and after cooling, it will flow out as wine, and it is chosen on the snow-capped mountains, where the temperature is very low, which is convenient for water vapor cooling.
In some of Liu Xiu's memories, the process of distillation will have a special cooling device, and even water will be poured to accelerate the cooling, and he can save a lot of effort by choosing this place.
"It's been almost three months, from the creation of tools to the selection of materials, failure again and again, so much food has been wasted, and it will soon become a ......"
The fire inside the shed was very hot and warm, but outside the shed was bitterly cold.
On the stove, a fully enclosed device resembling a steamer is being heated, with fermented sake lees in the middle, and a bamboo tube extending from the top, and a jar under the bamboo tube.
With the continuous heating, the hot air in the 'steamer' gushes up, and the hot air comes to the top and cools and condenses into water droplets when it encounters the low temperature lid, and the water droplets begin to gather and flow downward, and then flow out through the small opening.
At the exit of the bamboo pipe, a drop of water appears and falls into the jar.
"It's done!" Liu Xiu's eyes lit up.
That drop of water is wine, and as it appears, the aroma of wine begins to permeate, and smelling the aroma of wine, Liu Xiu feels that his efforts in the past few months have been worth it.
Pure grain wine, I finally made it out.
When the first drop of wine in the bamboo tube appears, more and more, and then flows into the jar in a line, and the aroma of the wine becomes stronger and stronger.
"The brewmaster said that in fact, this wine is not suitable for drinking, although I don't know what the principle is, but it should be right to listen to the professional......
muttered in his mouth, and after receiving half of the first jar of wine in the jar, Liu Xiu removed it and replaced it with a new jar, so that the next wine could be drunk normally.
When he continued to receive the wine, Liu Xiu looked at the half jar of Dao wine, thought about it, and decided to taste it to understand why this Dao wine was not suitable for drinking.
I filled some with a wine spoon made of bamboo tubes, took a small sip, and then Liu Xiu vomited it all.
"The taste of the wine is very light, the degree is estimated to be about the same as beer, no wonder it is not suitable for drinking, a little scratching the throat, not to mention, this wine is easy to hit the head after drinking too much"
Shaking his head, Liu Xiu completely agreed with the brewing master's statement.
I tasted the wine in the second jar again, and although the taste was still a little light, it didn't have the feeling of scratching my throat.
"The wine I brew by myself, I just feel different," Liu Xiu muttered as he looked at the steady flow of wine.
This wine is definitely not as good as monkey wine, but it contains Liu Xiu's hard work and hard work, can it taste the same?
It doesn't matter if the wine tastes light, you can distill it twice later, the boiling point of alcohol is higher than that of water, and it can be easily purified.
The wine in the steamer is flowing out continuously, but the taste of the wine is getting weaker and weaker later, and after almost that, Liu Xiu stopped pulling the fire, a pot of wine lees, and finally got five jars of wine, each jar is about four catties, after all, he is not a lot of pots, although he doesn't know the output of other people's wine, but Liu Xiu himself is still satisfied.
Then, he worked non-stop to clean the tools and distill the resulting liquor twice or three times.
After three times, one or twenty catties of wine is only less than ten catties, the degree is estimated to be more than forty degrees, after tasting Liu Xiu finally found the taste of the past, what is even more commendable is that this is pure grain wine, without blending with flavor, the taste is very pure.
"Before you know it's autumn, time flies so fast, and it will soon be winter, so it's just used to make wine all winter, and then some will be stored in the ice and snow on the snowy mountains, and some can be buried under the fruit trees, and a little bit in the lake, I don't know if there is any difference in the taste of the cellar after the time."
Looking at the mountains and autumn leaves outside, Liu Xiu already had a plan in his heart, and while reading books and pulling erhu, he found something to do for himself.
However, if you want to make wine all winter, you are afraid that your own food will not be enough, but it doesn't matter, just go to the mountains to buy it, anyway, the food in this world is not born by chemical fertilizers, and it is safe and secure to use.
But before that, after brewing the wine himself, Liu Xiu has to find someone to share it.
There were no more people in the mountains, so he looked in the direction of the lake, so he took a dozen catties of wine and came to the terrace of the water pavilion in the lake.
Before the meal arrived, the neighbor did not appear, Liu Xiu beckoned, a fist-sized stone fell into his hand, and he threw it directly towards the center of the lake.
Then, the head of the giant python appeared on the surface of the water, and the look in his eyes, looking at Liu Xiu, seemed to ask if you wanted to fight.
In the past, it was the giant python that appeared by itself, but it was the first time that Liu Xiu took the initiative to provoke it.
Facing that look, Liu Xiu subconsciously shrunk her neck, and then thought that something was wrong, I took good things to share, what are you afraid of?
"Don't look at me like that, what do you think this is? My own wine, very good, come on, taste, just these two jars, how about I share one jar with you? Raising the wine jar in his hand, Liu Xiu turned to the other party and said confidently.
The giant python looked at Liu Xiu, and threw it a disgusted look that you want to get me drunk, and it didn't care about it, and sank to the bottom of the water and disappeared.
In this way, Liu Xiu was dumbfounded, scratched his head and muttered: "You eat the food I cooked, why don't you drink this wine......
Shaking his head, I don't know if the neighbor belongs to the kind of person who doesn't drink alcohol, Liu Xiu pondered, yes, since you don't drink, then I'll go find 'someone else'.
So, Liu Xiu went to the mountains first to find Xiaobai.
During this time, Liu Xiu gave it a pair of potions from time to time, Xiaobai grew again, and now it is almost the size of a football, and his body has completely turned white, and even a little in the direction of jade.
Xiaobai's body is now far tougher than ordinary steel, its wings are extremely sharp, and it also has a group of younger brothers, if they are all dispatched, it will be overwhelming like a dark cloud, and Liu Xiu is a little afraid if he is full of firepower, but fortunately, the swarm is not hostile to him.
found Xiaobai, it and Liu Xiu were intimate for a while, Liu Xiu gave it the wine he brewed to drink, Xiaobai did not refuse to come, as long as it was given by Liu Xiu, and then it drank half a catty, but it couldn't fly......
"The amount of alcohol is really bad"
Put Xiaobai back in the cave, Liu Xiu went to find the big tiger again, this guy has also grown, his body length is almost eleven meters, but after seeing Liu Xiu, he is no different from a cat.
Then, Liu Xiu's distilled spirit, it began to take a figure-eight step after two catties, roaring like crazy, and then rushed into the jungle to find an opponent to fight.
"Shiro is so big, I start to go crazy after drinking a little wine"
Pouting, Liu Xiu didn't pay attention to it, today's big tiger, with its size, ordinary beasts meet it completely to deliver food.
In the end, Liu Xiu took the rest of the wine and went to the monkey group to find the monkey king to drink.
The so-called one time is born and two times ripe, at the beginning, Liu Xiu came here to grab the monkey wine, and the two sides also formed a beam, and then Liu Xiu gave it medicine, and after a few times, the relationship between the two sides rose sharply, and now it can be said to be to the extent of hooking shoulders and backs.
The rest of the highly distilled liquor Liu Xiu and the Monkey King drank it all, the Monkey King deserved to be a frequent drinker, it was a barrel at all, plus its size, there was no, and when it was over, he took out the monkey wine to entertain Liu Xiu, and finally patted his chest, as if to say that you think about me and I can't be stingy, so when Liu Xiu left, it gave Liu Xiu a lot of monkey wine.
"Well, it's autumn, you're going to make room for new monkey wine."
Pouted, although he saw through the Monkey King's intentions, Liu Xiu still smiled at the monkey wine sent by the other party, and the Monkey King was also sincere and generous, and he didn't know where he hollowed out the trunk and filled Liu Xiu with one or two hundred catties of monkey wine......
After returning to the bamboo house, Liu Xiu started a new round of winemaking the next day, accumulating successful experience in the previous months, and then just building it.
The neighbor actually didn't drink, which Liu Xiu didn't expect, but that's okay, if the other party drinks, with its size, once it drinks well, no matter how much it brews, it won't be enough for it to drink.
I went to the town to buy grain, bought jars, came back to make wine, and the days went by.
After autumn, the weather begins to be cold, the cold wind howls, and winter comes, and the mountains are covered with heavy snow.
Liu Xiu's wine is also more and more, under the fruit trees, in the ice and snow on the snowy mountains, and even in the lake Lotus Lake, he has a lot of cellars, and he is idle when he is idle, so he should pass the time.
Although Liu Xiu has been to Qingliu Town many times during this time, he has not paid attention to the pattern there, and he leaves after buying things every time.
It is worth mentioning that after the arrival of winter, Liu Xiu was rarely much more leisurely, because Xiaobai or his neighbors were hibernating, especially the neighbors' hibernation, and he didn't have to rush to cook every day.
Of course, he didn't know if the neighbors were really hibernating, and he hadn't been to the lake anyway.
The days flew by quietly, and after the cold winter, the weather warmed up, the snow and ice began to melt, and soon it was the season of recovery.
"In a few months, I will be in this world for two years......"
On the snowy mountain, in the hot spring cabin, Liu Xiu warmed a pot of wine for himself and slowly tasted it, looking out the window and muttering.
Immediately, he frowned again, he didn't know when it started, he had a premonition, as if something was about to change in him, but he didn't know what it was.
It's not a bad thing that you don't feel dangerous, just let it be.
