Chapter 80 A Hundred Years of Exquisite Wine Fragrance
After entering the hotel lobby to arrange accommodation, Boss Hugh ordered the man to take the guests to the restaurant for dinner first.
Because the dementia mage advocated eating more vegetarian food to live a long life along the way, in the luxurious restaurant of the Little Palace, the teenagers specially ordered a few vegetarian dishes recommended by the dementia mage.
After an unbeatable vegetarian meal, everyone is satisfied and settles into their rooms.
Ama and Zhen'er live in a single room, Wang Fan lives in a three-person room with Shanglin and Ah Hu, and Kapok Zi shares a double room with the demented master.
Kapok and the demented mage walked into the room, and there was a large bronze mirror under the lamp, and Kapok looked at the mirror and suddenly lost her face, and exclaimed, "Hey, why is my hair so ugly!" If I go to Blue Mist Mountain tomorrow, I will definitely be laughed at by those pharmacists, mage, hurry up and help me find a barber shop to fix my hair. ”
The demented mage leaned over and said, "Hey, it's time to fill in the hair, this mage's flask is empty, and I want to go to Shenshui Restaurant to buy a pot of good wine, let's go to the street together." ”
The two of them crept out of the room, out of the little palace, and into the street.
The sky was dark and dreary, the cool breeze was blowing tightly, and the lanterns hanging high in the shops on both sides of the street were swaying in the wind.
The two of them walked and looked for a barbershop.
Not long after walking, a strong smell of wine wafted out from a tavern with red lanterns hanging on the side of the street, and a wine flag fluttered in the wind on the roof of the tavern.
The demented mage took a sip of wine and said, "Distinguished guest, that tavern is the world's famous Shenshui Restaurant, and this mage has long heard that the cellar of the Shenshui Restaurant contains Yelang wine brewed a hundred years ago, and said that the wine is fragrant for a day and a cup of incense for a year. This mage didn't dare to ask if he had no money in the past, but today is different, this mage is more than the king of Tianling, since he has already walked to the gate of Shenshui Restaurant, it is better to taste how fragrant the hundred-year-old Yelang wine is, and then fill the wine jug and then take the distinguished guest to the barber. ”
Kapok Daiki: "Hi, great! I haven't drunk in a long time, so I just went to try the good wine you said. I wanted to drink in the Little Palace just now, but I was stopped by Shanglin. They're gone, and we're safe to drink and go back to sleep. ”
The demented mage smiled: "Hey, this mage originally thought that the fat guests would not drink, otherwise they would let you taste the wine in this mage's gourd on the way." ”
Kapok Zi laughed: "Master, I am the prince of Jiuxian City, can I not drink?" I'm definitely drinking more than you, don't believe it, go compare it now. ”
The demented mage said in surprise, "What prince of Wine Immortal City?" What do you mean? ”
Kapok Zi consciously lost her words, and changed her words: "Master, it's cold outside, let's sit in the hotel and talk while drinking." ”
The two of them walked into the tavern.
Come into the house and take a look, heh! The scale of this Shenshui restaurant is really not small, more than a dozen large tables are full of people, the dim light is foggy, and the drinkers are pushing glasses and changing lamps and shouting noisily.
On one side of the tavern door is a wine cabinet, on which large wooden cabinets against the wall are placed large and small wine jars, with name tags and prices pasted on them, and behind the wine cabinet sits a young man who is "splitting!" Smack! "Counting a pile of coins.
The demented mage stood in front of the cabinet and shouted, "Shopkeeper! ”
The man looked up to see that the demented mage hadn't paid attention and counted his money.
Anger immediately swelled up in the heart of the demented mage, how could anyone treat a distinguished guest like this? He slapped the wine cabinet with his hand, "Smack!" The sound frightened the young man raised his head.
The demented mage then glared and yelled, "Go and bring the best wine in your shop to this mage!" ”
"Whoa......" The guy counting the money was startled by the demented mage's angry shout, and the tavern suddenly fell silent, and the eyes of all the drinkers looked at the dementia mage who concocted a clap and a shout.
Hearing the sound from the back room, a dignified old green man asked in a loud voice, "Living treasure, what's wrong?" ”
The young man stood up and pointed at the demented mage and said, "Jueye, there is another ...... with this appearance."
The old man known as Jue Ye looked the dementia mage up and down, and then sneered: "Hmph! There's another dementia mage, and he's even more tempered! Last time, I was deceived into taking away a can of good wine, this time, Jueye, I won't be fooled, whether it's true or not, the demented mage, if you want to drink, pay first! ”
The old mage of dementia glared at Jueye: "Shopkeeper, what are you talking about?" What's another dementia mage! This mage has never been out of Wuling Village in the past ten years!"
Jue Ye said with a calm face: "Hmph! Last time, the liar said the same thing. ”
The dementia mage finally understood, and someone actually used the fame of the dementia mage to trick the old rich man into drinking the good wine, he couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "The shopkeeper said that someone pretended to be this mage to cheat you into drinking?" Hehe...... this kind of thing, this mage apologizes for this. Of course, you have to pay for drinking, and this master heard that your store has a hundred years of Yelang superb, how much is a can? ”
"Since you mentioned the cost of wine, Jue Ye, I will scare you when I say it, a 100-year-old jar of Yelang wine starts at 500 yuan!"
"Five hundred? Hey......" The demented mage laughed, he had never laughed so heartily in his life. The drinkers in the tavern were all suffocated by the uninhibited laughter, and the drinkers put down their glasses, and those who spoke closed their mouths, and all eyes looked at them.
The demented mage had enough of laughing, and said, "Shopkeeper, this mage will scare you if he takes out the money!" As he spoke, he took out the gold bag from his bosom and smashed it on the counter.
"Horn!" Countless cracks were revealed on the wine counter, and Jue Ye was so shocked that he almost fell to the ground.
The demented mage unhurriedly opened the gold bag, and a pile of gold shimmered seductively on the counter.
"Oops! So much Jinbao! The shopkeeper screamed.
The demented mage picked up a piece of gold coin and said to the dumbfounded Jueye: "Shopkeeper, this is the high-grade gold that the king of Guhe gave to this mage, you look at this again, he is the messenger of the king of the valley, and the master of the valley river took him to the Blue Misty Mountain to find the medicine immortal to do something, because this mage and the medicine fairy are close friends." Shopkeeper, do you still think that this dementia mage is fake? ”
"It's not! It's not!" Jue Ye waved his hand again and again, "Misunderstanding! Misunderstand! Jueye, I apologize to the Master and this distinguished guest. Living Treasure! What are you still standing? Go to the cellar and bring the last jar of the best of the hundred-year-old Yelang to the dementia, no, no, to the mage and the messenger! ”
"Ahh The best for 100 years! There was an exclamation from the tavern.
The man ran into the back room with his legs.
Jue Ye warmly beckoned the demented mage and Kapok Zi to sit in the VIP seat, and he said with a smile on his face: "The mage is famous all over the world, and his visit to our store today makes the walls of our store shine!" And the envoy of the King of the Valley River," Jue Ye suddenly remembered something when he looked at the kapok, turned his face and whispered to the demented mage, "Uh, mage, how can the messenger of the King of the Valley River be a child without a beard?" ”
The demented mage said solemnly: "Shopkeeper, how can the messenger of the Valley River King be a child!" Well, this emissary of the Valley King looked young, but his age was actually not much different from that of this mage. As for his lack of beard," the demented mage said here and paused, his gaze carefully surveying Kapok's smooth face for a moment for the first time, and then he muttered, "It's because... Because he wasn't born with a beard! ”
"Hey......" Kapok snickered as he covered his mouth with his hand.
"Ah, I see, please sit down first, Jueye, I'll go and see why I haven't found that jar of Yelang for so long." Jue Ye turned around and said to himself as he walked: "Who will be born with a beard?" He shook his head to himself.
The demented mage and Kapok sat and waited for a while, and Huobao came out of the back room with a can of wine, and Jue Ye staggered behind him.
"Master, this is the best of Yelang that has been treasured in our store for a hundred years, please take a look, there is a seal on this wine jar, and there is a year on the seal." Jue Ye said solemnly.
The demented mage approached the wine jar to take a closer look at the seal, then stretched out his hand and curled his fingers to calculate, and said, "Shopkeeper, there is still a difference of ten years in a hundred years, and it is reasonable to charge fifty dollars less in a hundred years." ”
Jue Ye said with a smile on his face: "Okay, according to the meaning of the mage, do you want to have some snacks?" ”
"No need, I'll just eat at the Little Palace, uh!" The demented mage said with a hard burp.
As soon as Jue Ye turned to leave, the demented mage immediately removed the seal and opened the lid of the wine jar. Suddenly, a rich aroma of wine wafted from the wine jar and wafted to every corner of the tavern. There are no words to describe this unique aroma perfectly, and all in all, when the other drinkers in the tavern smell the best of the century-old wine, everyone feels that they are no longer filled with wine but with the stinking water of the river.
The demented mage stood up and carefully held the jug and poured a full glass of kapok seeds before filling his own.
Kapok hadn't drunk for a long time, and when he smelled such a delicious wine, his addiction to alcohol was like the waves in a storm, and he couldn't suppress it anymore, and at this moment he didn't care about any etiquette, so he picked up the wine glass and poured it into his mouth.
Seeing this, the demented mage was not to be outdone, and also took a sip of a glass, and when the wine in the cup was gone, he immediately picked up the wine jar and filled the two empty wine glasses.
After five rounds of drinking, the two of them stopped to rest, and the demented mage stared at the dim eyes and asked in a low voice, "Distinguished guest, what did you just say about the Wine Immortal City?" Where is the Brewery City? Master Ben had only imagined that there should be such a place in the world where drinking alcohol and not spending money should be, is it true?"
Kapok Zi was already blushing and his neck was thick, and his mouth was full of wine, and he said in a low voice: "Hey, mage, of course there is!" Let me tell you the truth, Jiuxian City is on the prairie on the other side of the sea, and I am the prince of Jiuxian City. Jiuxian City is the name taken by the Heavenly King, the Heavenly King used to live, we were originally the messenger of the Heavenly King, for fear of scaring the mage and only said that it was the messenger of the King of the Valley River. ”
"You're from the prairie? But this mage heard that the prairie is a red man, but you..."
"Fake!" Kapok wiped his sweaty face with his hand and said, "We painted green paint, this thing was given by aliens, and it won't be wiped off for a while, look at my arm." ”
Kapok Zi said as he rolled up the sleeve on one of his arms, and the demented mage craned his neck to take a look, "Hey, what a celebrity!" You are truly the messengers of the King of Heaven! This mage now understands why you're going to Blueface Cliff! There is the treasure of the Heavenly King. ”
"The mage is right, we are going to bring the treasures of the Heavenly King back to the prairie. Come, this prince respects the master for a cup! ”
The two then took turns toasting, and the more they drank, the more they got better.
In the admiring eyes of many drinkers in the tavern, it didn't take long for a jar of Yelang's best to be a hundred years old and only ten years away from it all poured into the stomachs of the two.
After paying for the drink, the demented mage stood up with a big belly and staggered out the door, although Kapok Zi was shaking herself, she still supported the dementia mage.
Jue Ye sent the guest to the door and said, "Welcome to the two of you next time you come to Shenshui Restaurant!" ”
"Good, good, good wine!" The demented mage shook his head.
