The persimmon tree is backed by the mountains, and the ones are as red as small lanterns, and they are more noble when they are stained with morning dew and frost flowers.

Tao Tianming picked a bloated persimmon with bent branches from the tree, and said: "Brew some persimmon wine in a few days, and you will have a good mouth when the New Year is over." ”

Chen Yuzhi saw that the wine saint did not answer his question, and said: "Persimmon can also make wine?"

"The world only knows that persimmons can be made persimmons, but few people know that they can also make wine, the village where I lived when I was a child was full of persimmon trees, persimmon wine is even more every family, but few people will take it out to greet guests, usually closed the door in their own home drink, it is still a matter of face, etiquette, drink a lifetime of wine, but still can't forget the taste of the most pure. ”

Chen Yuzhi used to be drunk with immortals, and now if you want to evaluate this wine, you will inevitably give a thumbs up, and praise the above good wines...... But if you want to say what kind of wine you want to drink most at this time, there is only a jar of Liangzhou burning knives.

"Lao Tao, I think, everyone has regrets in their hearts, those days that we haven't paid attention to, looking back are precious, time will be yellowed with memory, but nostalgia will not. ”

The half-open wine saint laughed loudly, and an angry rebuke came from the room: "Why do you laugh so loudly? Don't you think that your laughter is more beautiful than that of the music girl in the music room?"

Jiuli Tiger's temper is uncertain, but he is amiable to Ruotang. Tao Tianming looked like a good man, never argued with the thief saint, and was gradually ridden on the head by the other party, but he felt that it didn't matter, and said: "It's good that the tiger master is happy." ”

"Do you know why Xifeng has the word hidden god before drinking?"

Chen Yuzhi waited for a long time, and finally waited for the other party to speak, and said, "It has something to do with the material?"

"Yes and no, this wine is indeed brewed by me in a unique secret method, but in addition to the excellent taste there is no other characteristics, the reason why you can enter the secluded realm, is because I melt some wine in the wine when I drink the true meaning of the wine, the first time to drink Xifeng, if you have a sense of the wine way, you will definitely be able to raise the realm in a short period of time, the level depends on the state of mind...... Ordinary people will get drunk and unconscious after a drop, that's because they can't enter the Tao with wine, this Xifeng wine was brewed by me for the heirs back then, do you understand?"

Chen Yuzhi was a little surprised, Jiu Shengming was throwing an olive branch at himself, but thinking that he still couldn't solve the problem of the shackles of Jiupin, he felt a sense of loss for no reason, if Brother Cai heard this, it is estimated that he would have kowtowed to his teacher a long time ago.

Tao Tianming saw Qingshan's crying face and asked, "Look at you, you look like you've lost your wife." What's wrong?"

"I gathered qi in Xijing for the Great Perfection, and then joined the army in Liang, and forcibly raised the realm in the Battle of the Eight Desolate Mountains, and recovered by chance...... In the battle of Mobei, he raised the realm for the second time outside the Yumen Pass, and now the hundred points have dried up, and he will never be able to break through the realm above the nine grades, what do you say is the difference between this and losing his wife?"

Tao Tianming saw the clues in the young man as early as in Yangzhou, and said: "You are content, forcibly raising the realm is burning your life, and if you don't die twice, you are already burning high incense!"

"Lao Tao, of course I know the consequences, those two times I was ready to die, in order to protect the people I cherish in my heart, why be afraid of death?"

The sloppy man smiled and laughed, the first time he felt that the young man was calm, and the second time he felt that he had not seen the wrong person, and said: "You can drink Xifeng wine to enter the secluded realm, which means that you can enter the Tao with wine, so you don't have to worry about the shackles, but I can see that your kid has outstanding talent in knives and swords, and it is a pity to enter the wine road, how to choose your own measurement, as the saying goes, there is no endless road......"

"Lao Tao, what are the conditions for entering the Tao with wine?"

"Abandon the sword and sword, abandon the form and abandon the face, there will be gains and losses, and one of the five disadvantages and three shortcomings must be accounted for!"

"What are the five disadvantages and three shortcomings?"

The wine saint showed a rare bitterness, and sighed: "Don't underestimate the use of wine to enter the Tao, it is even more jealous than the Taoist gate's peeping into the heavens." The five disadvantages are widowhood, widowhood, loneliness, loneliness, and disability, and the three shortcomings are money, life, and power. ”

Qingshan understood why the wine saint was always spitting before, he intended to preach but was afraid of harming himself, Chen Yuzhi didn't dare to bet against the sky, it didn't matter if he was tortured, if he hurt his confidante, he said: "Lao Tao, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you......"

Tao Tianming glanced at the green shirt and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, do you think you are fragrant and gluttonous? There are more people in the rivers and lakes who want to enter my door!"

Chen Yuzhi saw Lao Tao with a smile on his face, and he was relieved, although he still couldn't solve his own problems, but the road was under his feet, and he would not give up easily. Tsing Yi chatted with the wine saint for a while, and then went back to the newly built hut sent by Brother Cai, Tao Tianming did not move under the persimmon tree, thinking that back then, he was also under the guidance of the master into the wine road, speaking of Chen Yuzhi is really free and easy, a shortcut to the sky said that you can give up, he is not as firm as him......

Jiulihu walked out of the old house, and the black clothes were changed into ordinary cloth clothes, but the bell on his waist was still there, he looked at the back of Xiao Se in front of him, and quipped: "Old Tao, it doesn't taste good to be rejected, right?"

Tao Tianming laughed at himself, took a bite of the persimmon, and said: "Master Tiger, it's false to say that you feel good, that kid should be able to go further......"

"Isn't there a junior who wants to worship you as a teacher, the wine in that cellar is really good, don't be picky!"

"Master Tiger, it's not that I'm picky, I need an understanding of heaven and earth to enter the Tao with wine, that little God of Wealth is good, but after all, it is not suitable for the rivers and lakes. ”

Jiulihu shook his head and sighed: "Suitable or unsuitable, how do you know if you haven't tried it?"

As the sun sets, smoke curls from the mountains to the river, filling the country with the unique burnt scent of stoves and rice firewood.

Miss Ruotang moved out of Sioux City, saying that she wanted to accompany her master more, but everyone knew who she wanted to accompany or meet. The woman and the robe are busy in front of the stove, one washes the vegetables and cuts them, and the other cooks the pot, and the warmth between the eyebrows and eyes is revealed, like a couple immersed in ordinary days, no one wants to come forward to disturb, just sit under the persimmon tree and wait for the joy of the meal.

Jiuli Tiger is the most gratifying, the apprentice has grown up over the years, and it is time to marry a wishful Langjun, and he is also very optimistic about this Maoshan trail, from the day he held Ruotang back to Xiaoxiang Tower, he and Tao Tianming watched in the dark, the move of the three kowtows of the mountain is impressive, not to mention how powerful it is, just to bend the knee for the brother, it is worthy of admiration.

Tao Tianming lying on the rattan chair, holding his head in one hand, holding the altar of Jizhou Laojiao in the other, drinking happily, these days under the persimmon tree, it can be said that it is extremely comfortable, not stepping out of the fence, he tasted half of the wine in the Central Plains, this is all the credit of Gu Mao'er, some people serve it is usual, but there is a rich side of the junior to serve, but there has never been, the wine sage said: "The entrance of this Jizhou Laojiao is soft, but it seems to lack some stamina." ”

Brother Cai sneered, rubbed his hands together like the turtle of the Qinglou, and said, "Senior, how about I go and get you a jar of mountain wine?"

Jiu Shenglang said with a smile: "Smelling the mountain wine, a cup of a thousand days dizzy." Okay, here's a jar!"

Brother Cai rushed to the wine cellar, because he wanted to serve the wine saint in person, so he arranged all the attendants in Suzhou City, Chen Yuzhi shouted: "Brother Cai, bring us an altar of burning knives by the way!"

"Okay!"

Jiulihu quipped: "This kid is diligent, Lao Tao, you are so blessed!"

Lao Tao drank the old cellar of Jizhou, and then shook his hand to the sky, and the wine jar went straight into the sky, and gradually disappeared from the field of vision, "It is said that people are short and eat people with soft mouths, and I am not a stingy person, and I will return him a Xifeng wine for a while, but it depends on him whether he can succeed or not......"

Chen Yuzhi saw that the wine saint was relieved, and he was also happy for Gu Mao'er, completely forgetting the five disadvantages and three shortcomings, Tao Tianming got up and walked to the water tank, scooped a handful of water, and rinsed his mouth, this is his habit, in order not to affect the taste of drinking later, in order to prevent the smell from crossing.

The wine jar in the cellar was piled up, and it was estimated that it would take some effort to find Zhongshan wine and burning knives, so Lao Tao lay back on the rattan chair and said: "Master Hu, since these two juniors are in love, what are you hesitating about? Hurry up and match, wouldn't it be wonderful to give you an apprentice and grandson quickly!"

"Water comes naturally, I don't want to do the thing of pulling out seedlings to help grow, and you don't follow the blind mixing, you are also a wine saint, how can you be so frivolous?"

Brother Cai ran back to the courtyard sweating profusely, Xiao Zamao and Ruotang also finished a table of side dishes, the sunset still had not yet set, and everyone moved their chopsticks.

Brother Cai said: "I never dreamed of it...... I can actually eat at the same table with the Wine Saint and the Thief Saint!"

"If you're not used to it, you can go to the corner and eat it yourself!"

Jiulihu's words were joking, but Gu Mao'er didn't dare to guess the thoughts of his seniors, and was about to leave the table with the bowl, Chen Yuzhi stretched out his hand and grabbed the other party, and said with a smile: "Brother Cai, the seniors are joking with you, what are you doing?"

This guy's actions amused the big guy, Ruotang sandwiched a piece of crispy meat to Li Xiyang, but found that Jiulihu glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally, so he sandwiched another piece to the master, and the thief sighed: "It is said that the girl who married out spilled the water, and you forgot the master before you got married, hey!"

Tao Tianming said brokenly: "Master Tiger, this pot of crispy meat is closest to you, what is the hypocrisy!"

"Lao Tao, it's not a matter of whether it's close or not, it's a matter of heart!"

Brother Cai hurriedly took a piece of meat and sent it to the wine bowl, and said with a smile: "Senior, this is a little bit of my heart......

The somewhat tense atmosphere was dispersed, and the sunset fell between the laughter, Ruotang lit a few candles, but fortunately everything was dormant in winter, and there were no moths and insects.

Xiao Zamao was injured, did not drink with the green shirt, sat quietly next to Ruotang girl, the two looked at each other from time to time and smiled, thinking about Ruotang, who called himself a stinky Taoist a few days ago, has now completely changed his appearance, he has not vomited words, and his anger is like Youlan.

Qingshan patted Gu Mao'er and said with a smile: "Brother Cai, let me tell you good news, the wine saint is going to take you as an apprentice!"

Brother Cai's eyes widened, snatched the burning knife on the table, and poured it hard, he wanted to slap himself, but he changed it to pinch his face, and seeing that he was not dreaming, he trembled and said: "Chen Yuzhi, what did you just say, can you say it again?"

"I said the wine saint is going to take you as an apprentice!"

Brother Cai jumped up and fell beside Tao Tianming, just about to apprentice. An invisible force appeared, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't bow down, and the wine saint said: "I just said to give you a hidden god Xifeng wine to try, if you can't understand the wine, it will be regarded as a bamboo basket to draw water, no one owes anyone, and no one has to blame anyone!"

Brother Cai stood up and said, "Thank you senior!"

Lao Tao took out a small wine pot from his arms, this bottle of green shirt and robe is no stranger, that day in the Funiu Mountains, Chen Yuzhi drunk and lying in the mountains after drinking, at that time it was a big deal for everyone, but after a long time, he briefly entered the secluded realm, I don't know what will happen to Brother Cai today, Xiao Zamao also has some expectations.

Brother Cai carefully took the Xifeng wine, his hands were still trembling, he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and after pestling in place for a long time, he shouted into the night sky: "Old man! I won't be a loser soon!

Tao Tianming said: "Boy, you don't have a foundation for cultivation, you can become a ...... with a sip of a drink."

Under the gaze of everyone, Brother Cai drank Xifeng, and as soon as he put the small wine pot steady, he fell drunk under the persimmon tree, Chen Yuzhi carried him to the house, Li Xiyang smiled: "I don't know how long it will take him to wake up, Chen Yuzhi, you also lay down in Funiu Mountain for a long time that day." ”

"If you don't wake up with three incense, you will wake up in three days, this kid hasn't experienced any hardship, and it's probably difficult to enter the Tao. ”

It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. They couldn't help with the rest, so they could only rely on Gu Mao'er to work their own. Chen Yuzhi saw that Lao Tao didn't drink all the fun, so he went to pick up a jar of Zhongshan wine, and he also burned the knife along the altar, the two of them came and went, wanting to compete in the wine, Li Xiyang asked: "Chen Yuzhi, why did you drink the burning knife today? You don't usually like to drink this kind of spirit." ”

"A year has passed in a blink of an eye, this year I have experienced too much life and death, burning a knife can remind me not to forget the deceased, saying that it is missing, regretful, melancholy, sometimes drinking is to get drunk, sometimes drinking is to make yourself more sober, one or two wine can not say a thousand words, three or two wine can boast, five two or six after it can be called incendiary tears, drunk and awake between a layer of veil, this yarn is called regret unwilling to sigh between the fingers, the past with the wind and like a dream. ”

Li Xiyang knew that he remembered the old man again, if he remembered correctly, it should be called "Lei Xiaoyang", the robe stretched out his palm and put it on Ruotangyu's hand, only Tao Tianming laughed loudly, and it spread for miles.

"A good drunk and awake, a good sigh, and like a dream! Life and death are unpredictable, separation is common, the world is difficult to have contentment, always think that today after the reunion is more round, but I don't know that this is the best time for myself, but when I regret it, the years have already slipped away, and brought the most cherished things! I cherish every jar of wine, every encounter, every separation, young man, only live without regrets, that is called life. ”

Chen Yuzhi understood the meaning of the wine saint's words, and he regretted not cherishing the days when he grew up with Qingluo, regretting not cherishing the days when he drank with Old Man Lei, and regretting not cherishing the days when he was clinging to Lu Xiaoyin.

Qing Yi poured the burning knife into his throat, the burning heat was thought-provoking, he jumped into the field, and cut the small night with a murderous knife, although it could not be compared with the random knife of the old man Lei, but it was deeper in love and more intense.

Jiulihu nodded secretly and said: "This kid has a bright future, if he can't break through the nine grades, it's a pity." ”

After three incense sticks, Brother Cai still snored like thunder, and a lot of halazi flowed out of his mouth, the first time he entered the Tao was a failure, but a Xifeng wine only took a sip of it, and it was not too late to drink it after an epiphany one day, Tao Tianming seemed to have known the result for a long time, and did not show any waves, and continued to paralyze on the rattan chair to taste wine, so uncomfortable.

Three days later, Brother Cai squinted his eyes and woke up, depressed and took three bowls of rice, not even letting go of a grain of rice at the bottom of the bowl, the green shirt and the robe comforted on the side, but this guy was like a stubborn donkey, and asked the two how to feel, Yan Dao only saw the gold and silver mountains and beautiful clothes in the dream.

After all, Chen Yuzhi had drunk Xifeng wine, and it was easier to help the other party solve his doubts, but Qingshan was also a little confused, and said: "Brother Cai, what you need to enter the Tao with wine is understanding, you have not experienced a catastrophe, so you will not find the direction, if you still want to try again, then judge the level by the depth of the obsession of entering the Tao!"

After three incense sticks, everything was as before, except for the small waterfall on the side of the mouth, and the two closed the door for him, in case the sound of thunderous snoring disturbed the two seniors, in the fence courtyard, the two shook their heads in unison against a round of Emei Yue.

Qingyi looked at the water town of Sioux City, and enjoyed the short silence of these few days.

"Little Zamao, do you really like Miss Ruotang?"

"Yes. ”

"How much do you like it?"

"Many, much more!"

Chen Yuzhi stretched out his arms, as if he wanted to embrace the moon, and asked, "Do you like it so much?"

Xiao Zamao thought seriously for a while, and said, "There should be more!"

Tsing Yi turned around and grinned at Li Xiyang, and then returned to the house. Xiao Zamao doesn't talk nonsense, and he has never doubted his love for Ruotang, but in this way, the two brothers have come to the time of separation, and it was a threesome trip to Maoshan together, and Hou Cen Yan escaped into the empty door on the way, and today Li Xiyang has someone to accompany him, so there is no reason for him to stay. When you are alone, you can ignore life and death, just to continuously improve the realm of cultivation, and now Xiao Zamao is not only responsible for himself, but also responsible for Ruotang, and then go out on an adventure It is not like it, so it is okay, when he comes, he is alone, when he returns, the mountains are all over the mountains, and the fragrance of flowers is lonely.

On the day of New Year's Eve, the people prayed for a smooth wind and rain in the coming year, the Rinshan Temple was closed for many years, and finally opened the temple gate, claiming that the people of Sioux City could enter the incense at will in the future, the temple pulled up the lanterns, and all kinds of provoked a large number of children to play, the elders of the family saw the dolls go to the Rinshan Temple, and did not worry about any accidents, after all, the Buddha gate is pure, it is always much safer than the mountains, but those who come will be surprised, why the original flower basket building disappeared, it became a large piece of flat land, some people guess that it may be related to the abnormal movement a few nights ago, but the people are not concerned about these, as long as there is a place to burn incense and worship the Buddha, as long as Sioux City is harmless and harmless.

Brother Cai was still asleep in the room, Li Xiyang accompanied Ruotang girl to Rinshan Temple, of course, she also pulled Chen Yuzhi, the girl looked at the passers-by who were happy in Meiyu, and also smiled, walked downstairs to the original flower basket, and burned three sticks of incense in the stone cracks.

Chen Yuzhi wandered around the temple alone, looking at the face-painted lanterns and chasing the frolicking children, he couldn't help but feel that he was willing to commit the danger that night, and he was also a little envious of the little miscellaneous hair, and he didn't know if he could spend it with his confidant on New Year's Day next year.

Ruotang had affection in his eyes and asked, "Stinky Taoist, will you marry me?"

Li Xiyang looked shocked, obviously didn't expect the other party to be so direct, and said softly: "The edge of rubbing shoulders, the pain of persimmon trees, knowing each other at a glance, staying together for a lifetime." ”

The girl pursed her lips, clasped her hands behind her back, walked forward, and broke a sentence: "You can bear to leave your brother?"

Li Xiyang was reluctant to let Chen Yuzhi know, although he was a little numb, and he didn't want to admit it. Yesterday by the fence, he knew the meaning of the green shirt, these days there are also tossing and turning, it can be described as a dilemma, he did not know how to answer, pestle under a lotus-shaped lantern.

Ruotang shook her head, raised the corners of her mouth, and turned around, her hair fluttered under the butterfly hosta, and she smiled brightly and movingly, surpassing all the lanterns in Rinshan Temple.

"Stinky Taoist, I'll give you three years, if you don't make a name for yourself in the rivers and lakes, the girl won't marry you, you know?"

Maoshan Xiaodao straightened his chest and back, walked in front of Ruotang, stroked his cheeks with both hands, and printed it fiercely with his mouth......
