In many alternate history novels, the first bucket of gold of the travelers is obtained by distilling liquor. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In fact, as early as the Tang Dynasty, distilled liquor had already appeared, but at that time it was not called liquor, but dew drop wine.

After the Song and Yuan dynasties, dew drop wine became more and more common. Because of the different regions, a variety of aliases were born, including not only the liquor that is generally recognized by us on the spot, but also the other names of Baigan, Laobaigan, Shaodao Wine, Shoguo Wine, Steamed Wine, Dew Wine, Wine Dew, Shochu and so on.

Although there are differences in the level of craftsmanship, it is undeniable that the brewing process of dew drop sake has indeed spread to all parts of the people.

In "Water Margin", the 'three bowls are not posted' on Jingyanggang is obviously not an ordinary water wine. If you don't have a little confidence, the store that sells alcohol dares to play that sign?

Maybe the degree is not as high as modern liquor, but the eighteen bowls that Wu Song drank must belong to liquor, at least, there is also the degree of modern Korean soju.

Please don't refute it with the words 'Eighteen bowls of liquor will get drunk to death, so what Wu Song drank is definitely not liquor'. That's a novel, what's so strange about exaggeration? If you really want to be more serious, whether there is a person like Wu Song, whether he killed the tiger with his bare hands, it is still two words.

It's a bit far, in short, it's just a sentence, when Su Dongpo was alive, liquor had already appeared, and it was very common.

"Ha, ha~~! What kind of wine is this? How hot it is? He thinks he is a master of the wine country, and he has tasted a lot of fine wine, but in the face of vodka, which can almost be equated with alcohol, Su Dongpo still showed a palpitating expression.

It really took the boss a lot of effort to recover, no wonder Su Dongpo said this.

"Hehe, no matter whether it is turbid wine or spirits, it contains the essence of wine. There are few turbidity, so the taste is weak, and there are many strong ones, so the taste is intense. Chu Xiaobai smiled, raised the glass wine bottle in his hand and shook it: "In this bottle, the essence of wine is eighty percent." Locals love to drink it, not because of how good it tastes, but because of the cold. ”

"Keeping out the cold?"

"Yes, this wine comes from the far north. There were places where snow covered the whole year, and the air was frosty and dripping ice, and those people would not have survived without such spirits. Chu Xiaobai nodded: "In the local population, this wine also has another name, called 'Water of Life'. ”

While listening to Chu Xiaobai's description, while imagining in his mind, maybe it was the situation of the ice and snow, or maybe it was the alcohol that affected his sensibility, Su Dongpo's face couldn't help but show a drunken expression.

"Where's this bottle?" With curiosity, Su Dongpo asked about the origin of another bottle of wine.

"It's not unusual, it's wine."

"Wine? But the wine mentioned in the 'Glow-in-the-Dark Glass'? In the end, he is a poet, Su Dongpo immediately thought of the poem "Liangzhou Ci" written by Wang Han, a poet in the Tang Dynasty.

"Yes, the raw material used in this wine is not grains such as sorghum corn, but grapes." Chu Xiaobai once again put on the teacher's style and explained: "If you want to make wine, you must choose a specific variety, those grapes are relatively small, and the entrance is jerky, and it is not suitable for daily consumption." In short, most of the grapes in the Central Plains are not suitable for winemaking, but the grapes produced in the Western Regions are more suitable. ”

"South orange and north orange." Su Dongpo nodded thoughtfully: "Is this bottle in your hand from the Western Regions?" ”

"Yes, it's not." Chu Xiaobai smiled: "It's true that it's from the west, but it's farther than the Western Regions." Have you ever heard of Big Food? This thing was born in the west of the Great Food, and it is tens of thousands of miles away from the Central Plains. ”

Since I took it out, I naturally won't bring it back untouched. Without Su Dongpo opening his mouth, Chu Xiaobai had already opened the red wine in his hand.

The shape of the bottle opener is very strange, because of this thing, Su Dongpo casually asked a few more words.

"Alright, wait another quarter of an hour, and you'll be ready to drink."

"Why?" I couldn't wait to try it, but when I heard this, Su Dongpo's slightly drunk face showed a puzzled look.

"This wine is different from dew drops, and it needs to be decanted before drinking." Putting the wine bottle on the low table on the side, Chu Xiaobai stood up: "Master Su, please bring it a little, I'll go and get the wine glass." ”

Since you want to pretend to be forced, then simply make a full set. Jumping back to the painting boat he had chartered, avoiding the sight of several Le Ji and Dancing Girls, he pretended to go around the back cabin, and when he came back, Chu Xiaobai already had a few more crystal clear glass goblets in his hands.

"This ......, is this the legendary glow-in-the-dark cup?" The shape of the cups is indeed very exquisite, and the crystal clear appearance can also be related to the 'light', but because the material is similar to the wine bottle, Su Dongpo still did not directly identify their identities, but brought a trace of doubt in his excitement.

"No, no, no, this is a glass cup." Chu Xiaobai shook his head: "Speaking of which, I also want to get a few glow-in-the-dark cups, alas, it's a pity that I don't have such good luck." ”

The glass is just an accessory, but what really matters is the wine itself. While chatting and waiting, after a while, he felt that he was almost sober, so Chu Xiaobai reminded everyone again, picked up the bottle and gave them half a glass of red wine.

During the conversation, everyone had already drunk some, and by this time, their spirits had become more and more confused.

To describe Su Dongpo at this time with a cute and cute attitude, it is very vivid, he has half collapsed on the low couch, if it weren't for the concubine behind him, he might have slipped down.

But even so, Su Dongpo still didn't forget the red wine brought by Chu Xiaobai. Taking advantage of the wine, he was still like a child, and he had to let Chu Xiaobai pour him full.

The goblet is not big, but if you really want to pour a full cup, there are several taels. Seeing Su Dongpo carefully holding the cup in both hands, taking a sip of the wine in the glass as if he was drinking soup from a bowl, Chu Xiaobai could only change his expression to crying and laughing.

There is not much point in staying any longer, after all, the other party is already drunk like this. What's more, Su Dongpo also drank rice wine and vodka brought by Chu Xiaobai before, plus a large glass of wine now, the three wines are mixed together, and he will definitely be drunk and even more confused.

"Master Su, it's not too early, I should leave too. Why don't we see you another day? Taking advantage of the fact that Su Dongpo's eyes were not closed, Chu Xiaobai stepped forward and offered his farewell.

"No~~, don't~~go~!" Obviously he was already drunk and couldn't sit still, but Su Dongpo still grabbed Chu Xiaobai's arm: "Today~day, you~you~you will stay~~stay here~." Come on~~ people, go~ go and clean up the ~~ room for Chu Xiao~ brother....... ”

If Su Dongpo hadn't been drunk at this time, or if he had nothing to do tomorrow, Chu Xiaobai wouldn't mind staying. In other words, even if Su Dongpo didn't keep guests, he would find a way to stay.

But now. After thinking about it, Chu Xiaobai still shook his head: "Master Su, forgive the juniors for being rude." I have things to do tomorrow, and I really can't stay. ”

"Big~~ thing? What's the big ~~ thing? ”

In your current state, can I say it will be useful? And even if you can really listen to your heart, I can't say, do you want to say, 'I'm going to pretend to be a ghost in front of the emperor tomorrow'? After thinking about it, Chu Xiaobai still shook his head.

In order to prevent Su Dongpo from continuing to pull on himself, Chu Xiaobai quietly moved his secret hand - taking advantage of the fact that the others were unconscious, he carried several maids and concubines around him, and his palm gently brushed Su Dongpo's black acupoint, and secretly tapped his internal force.

Leaving a sentence of 'please tell Master Su that when I finish the business at hand, I will come to him again for a drink', Chu Xiaobai left the boat with his colorful clothes and returned to the painting boat he rented.

There was no idea of sleeping flowers and willows, and the chance encounter with Su Dongpo had already made Chu Xiaobai's mood very excited. Greeting the painting boat, he turned around and returned to the place where he had set off before, Chu Xiaobai threw down a few ingots of silver, and then left in a hurry.

He didn't see the eyes of the girl in colorful clothes on the painting boat behind him, and he didn't expect that the two would meet again soon.

What Chu Xiaobai didn't expect was that before meeting Caiyi again, he actually met Su Dongpo first, and it was still in a situation that he didn't expect.

……………………………………………..

Standing among the ministers, Su Dongpo also raised his head and saw Chu Xiaobai sitting on the back of the fireball.

Recalling yesterday's scene, compared with the face in his memory, Su Dongpo's heart was full of shock, this feeling was like running tens of thousands of **** horses in front of him at the same time, and each *** spit on himself when he passed by.

"What's going on with him?" Su Dongpo's mind was full of these five words.

In mid-air, Chu Xiaobai also saw Su Dongpo in the crowd. It was only then that he remembered that Su Dongpo had indeed experienced several denigrations in his life, but when he was not demoted, he was also a senior member of the court.

"Why didn't you see him when you came here the other day? Am I not paying attention? No, if he had been there the other day, he wouldn't have recognized me yesterday when he was on the boat, ...... no reason. TNND, what the hell is going on? "The old problem has not been cured, no, Chu Xiaobai was unconsciously distracted again.

Fortunately, he still has the identity of an immortal chief, even if he is distracted, in the eyes of the ministers and the emperor below, he will not feel that there is anything wrong with him - is he a master, is it unfathomable and does not speak, isn't it a matter of course?
