Chapter 187: Wine and Beauty
"Brother Feng?" The god of medicine said with some uncertainty, his gaze swept over the face of the middle-aged scribe in the car, and finally stopped at the golden fan in his hand.
"The predecessors of the medical god won't even forget their old friends, right?" The blue-robed boy also got into the carriage from behind them.
The medical god glanced back at the son, then at the middle-aged scribe, and said with a smile: "Is it really Brother Feng?" Unexpected, unexpected. ”
It was Feng Liusan in the carriage, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Can't think of anything?" ”
"I can't imagine that Mr. Iron Fan, who has never been close to women, is now ......" The medical god looked at the golden fan in Feng Liusan's hand, his face was serious, but the words he said were embarrassing: "The workmanship is really good, lifelike!" Gee. Brother Feng is getting more and more aware of the style. ”
"Cough, cough ......" Feng Liusan looked embarrassed when he heard this, and quickly turned the golden fan to the side, * facing himself, thinking about it, it seemed a little inappropriate, so he simply snapped it together, coughed twice, and said, "Brother Huo hasn't seen you for a long time, but it's still so funny." ”
The young man said, "Hehe, could it be that the predecessors of the God of Medicine are also like this? Well, since ancient times, the color of wine has not been separated, and it is also when I think about it. If the seniors like it, they will build a full gold medicine box for the seniors another day, and then let the craftsman engrave the most beautiful *......"
"Ugh." The medical god was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "No need, this is a young man's thing, the old man is not good at this, not good at this." "He knows that with the identity of this son, it is really possible to do what he says. Just kidding, carrying a medicine box made of pure gold, all of them are dead, plus the engraving *, and they are not laughed to death?
The little girl sat beside the god of medicine, pouting, obviously extremely dissatisfied with these guys who were talking about *, but she did not dare to look at the young man again.
The carriage drove slowly, and under the escort of the black-armored knight, it went around the eastern square of the city where the crowd gathered.
"Hehe, I said a long time ago that the Nalan family is not a place for Brother Feng to show his strengths. Sure enough, now that I see it, the iron fanning the golden fan, Brother Feng is no longer what it used to be! The god of medicine smiled and said, intentionally or unintentionally, glancing at the young man sitting next to him.
Feng Liusan smiled and said: "Let me introduce you, this is the second son of the governor of Huyang, Wu Weihou, Feng is now working in the second son's mansion." ”
The medical god smiled: "Hehe, it's really General Huwei." The old man knew that there was no second person to find a young man with such momentum in Huyang, except for General Li, who was a barbarian man. ”
The blue-robed boy was Li He, and after successfully picking up the god of medicine into the carriage, he was in a good mood and said with a smile: "It turns out that the predecessors of the god of medicine have already recognized it." ”
"If you don't have this eyesight, the old man's old bones won't be able to stay now." The god of medicine also smiled.
"Hehe, I have heard the name of the predecessors of the god of medicine for a long time, and now the predecessors have come to Huyang, so that I can see the dignity in the next, which is really a blessing for three lives."
The medical god smiled and said, "Gongzi Li, if you invite the old man to get in the car, you shouldn't just want to say something like Jiuyang, right?" ”
Li He nodded and said, "Of course not, I invited my seniors to drink." As soon as the words fell, the carriage stopped, the door opened, and the noise around them instantly rose, and it was still in the East Gate Square, but now they were behind the big platform in the middle of the square, and the huge fire unicorn was in front of them. This big guy was called here by Li He, but it was actually just for decoration.
The god of medicine grabbed Li He's arm and said, "Wait, this wine, it's better to drink it clearly." Li Gongzi might as well say bluntly, what does the old man need to serve? The old man has to know first whether he can afford to drink this wine. ”
Li He was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the medical god to say so directly, smiled, and said, "There are indeed two patients in the next family, I hope to ask the seniors to heal." However, I believe that this disease will definitely not be difficult for the predecessors, and with the medical skills of the predecessors, the disease will definitely be cured. So, let's drink first. Without waiting for the god of medicine to agree, he got out of the carriage with him. The so-called short hands and soft mouths of drinking people, it is better to give this drunkard doctor some benefits first and then ask him to treat the disease to get insurance.
The little girl jumped down after her, looking left and right with curiosity on her face. Seeing that Feng Liusan also got off the bus and stopped beside him, he hurriedly hid next to the god of medicine - this guy who has * on the fan he is holding, he is obscene, but he looks dignified, and he must be the kind of flower thief on the rivers and lakes.
The god of medicine looked at Li He and said, "Li Gongzi is so confident in the old man's medical skills? ”
Li He smiled: "That's nature." ”
The god of medicine looked at him and said, "What if the old man can't be cured?" ”
"Can't be cured?" Li He's face remained unchanged, and he squinted and said, "I believe that there is no disease in this world that can be difficult to get the predecessors of the god of medicine." But if it is really incurable, it is also the will of heaven...... "There is a secret way in my heart: can't it be cured? If you can't cure it, you have to cure it! If you can't cure it, what kind of doctor do you dare to call in vain? Lao Tzu doesn't believe in any providence, Lao Tzu is providence!
The medical god looked at him for a long time, smiled faintly, and said, "The old man does his best." After a pause, he said: "But it's not for wine, but for General Li's great achievement in quelling Hu Man." ”
"Thank you." Li He nodded and said to the medical god: "Please take a seat, senior." "This god of medicine must have had an enmity with the Hu people before.
Several people went to the main stage and sat down in the seats prepared for the VIPs.
Today, almost all the big and small officials in Huyang have arrived, and Li He's father Li Sihong is also among them, seeing that his son led an old man with white hair and black beard and a little girl of half age walking up, he couldn't help but pull his son and whispered: "That's the god of medicine?" ”
Li He nodded: "Not bad." ”
"Can he cure Ling'er and what kind of Ji is sick?"
"The boy thought, it should be possible."
"Okay, then after their illness is cured, your wedding with Zi'er ......"
"Don't worry, Father! As soon as they recovered from their illness, the wedding took place, and there was more than one. ”
"What? More than one? Li Sihong was stunned for a moment, and when he was about to ask again, Li He had already sat down next to the god of medicine.
At the beginning of the King of Wine Competition, the drinkers from all over the Great Xia competed with Huyang's famous wine "Qilixiang", and the last middle-aged man from Liangzhou won the title of King of Wine with four and a half scores. However, this wine king actually doesn't have much significance, everyone knows that the real wine king is sitting on the stage.
Next, Li Sihong announced that the world's No. 1 wine competition began. The rules of this competition are that the winemaker presents the wine, and the nine judges on the stage taste it one by one, give a score of 10 points, and write down the average score one by one. In the end, which wine has the highest score is the final winner of the "No. 1 Wine in the World".
Li He, Li Sihong, and Yishen are three of the judges, and the other five are well-known people from all over the Great Xia Kingdom, all of whom are noble or highly virtuous people, without exception, who have tasted many fine wines, and the amount of wine is also good. The last one is the winner of the King of Wine contest just now. They rated "the world's first wine", which also convinced everyone.
"The first place, Mr. Zhang Tang of Gufu Town, participated in the wine - Yuezhao Township."
A handsome tall scholar walked onto the stage with a jar of wine and saluted the judges one by one.
"This ...... Do you also make wine? Li He asked curiously.
"Back to the Hou Ye, the student's family opened a tavern, and he learned the method of making wine since he was a child. Later, after reading the book and being taught by the sage, I knew that there was a golden house in the wine, and there was Yan Ruyu in the wine. There is a way that life needs to be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon. There is also a saying, if you don't drink alcohol, you are not a gentleman, and if you don't drink alcohol, you can't get drunk! It is also said that the ancient sages were all lonely, and only the drinker left his name......"
"Stop! Stop, stop, stop......" Li He hurriedly gestured to stop, "There is Yan Ruyu in the wine?" Wine has its own house of gold? Still drinking and not drunk and not husband? You're a bad drinker, aren't you? ”
Zhang Tang smiled awkwardly: "This ...... The amount of alcohol consumed by the students is indeed average, but the wine they make is definitely not ordinary. As he spoke, he uncorked and began to fill the cups in front of the nine judges.
Li He picked up the cup and sniffed it suspiciously, his nose was full of fragrance, but there was no strange smell. Looking back at the other judges, they all looked distrustful, obviously not believing that this scholar who was not like a scholar could make any good wine.
After taking a small sip, the other eight judges immediately looked at him: "How is it?" ”
Li He looked back at the eight people: "Okay." ”
The eight people breathed a sigh of relief and drank all the wine, but they were all at a loss.
The god of medicine looked at Li He: "That's it...... You also say it's good wine? The old man didn't drink the smell of wine! It's clearly honey water! ”
Li He blinked and smiled: "I didn't say that this is good wine, I just said that it is good, it is delicious~!" Ha ha. ”
Li Sihong held the cup and said to Zhang Tang: "This can also be regarded as wine?" ”
Zhang Tang snorted, "Student...... Students don't drink much, so ...... That's why this wine is thinner......"
"Rare? I don't think it's wine at all! Li Sihong frowned and said, "Drag it down, drag it down!" How was the preliminary trial conducted, and how could such wine be brought up? It's so unorthodox! ”
"Rao...... Spare ...... Student...... Students are wronged! ~" Zhang Tang was frightened by Li Sihong, and immediately weakened his legs, and if he didn't know, he probably thought he was going to pull him down and cut off his head.
Li He beckoned to Yang Jin, who was standing behind him, and the latter immediately stepped forward and bowed his head: "What does the general command?" ”
"Go and bring that soup to the house." Li He said in a low voice. The things made in this Zhang soup are definitely not worth mentioning if they are judged by the standard of wine. But this taste is honestly really good, a bit of the taste of his last life's drink ju flower tea, cool and thirst-quenching, got the formula, and made it for the women in the family to drink in the future, they must like it.
"Second place, Zhaozhou Wang Lianwang, participating in the wine - Jiupan wine!"
A white-haired old man with a frosty face stood coldly in front of the judges holding a jar of wine.
"This old coffin." The god pursed his lips and whispered to himself.
Wang Lianwang saw that the god of medicine was also among the judges, his eyes stayed slightly for a while, but his face was still expressionless, and he silently walked up to the nine people and poured out the wine.
This Jiupan wine is indeed a fine wine, the wine aroma is mellow, the wine color is white, take a sip lightly, clear and moist the mouth, enter the throat refreshingly, and the aftertaste is endless.
Some of the judges raised the eight-point card, and some raised the seven-point card, even the medical god also raised the eight-point card, and only Li He lightly raised the three-point card.
Wang Lianwang, who had always been calm and unwavering, finally shrank his pupils, his cheek muscles trembled, and asked, "Dare to ask Master Hou, is there anything wrong with this wine?" The tone is stiff, and he seems to rarely speak.
Li He smiled faintly: "This wine is good, it's good, there's nothing wrong with it." ”
"Why?" Wang Lianwang looked at the three-point card in his hand.
Li He tilted his head and sighed: "Once the sea was difficult to turn into water, except for Wushan, it is not a cloud. ”
"What do you mean?" Wang Lianwang frowned and was puzzled.
The medical god and Li Sihong and the others also looked at him suspiciously, while Feng Liusan repeated his words to himself: "Once the sea was difficult to turn into water...... Once in the sea? ”
Li He said: "Why are you so stupid, I don't understand this." That is to say, although your wine is good, Ben Hou has drunk a peerless wine that is ten times and a hundred times better than your wine, so ...... Now that I drink this wine, I don't feel anything. ”
When Wang Lianwang heard this, his face instantly turned red, and even his eyes turned red, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Dare to ask, where is this peerless wine?" ”
Li He played with the black ring on his index finger and smiled: "You'll know later." However, you may not get a chance to drink it. Let's go down. ”
Wang Lianwang still seemed to be unwilling, but when he saw Niu Da with a hideous face walking towards him, he hurriedly got off the stage with half a jar of Jiupan wine.
The medical god raised his gray head and whispered to Li He: "The old man doesn't know if what you said is true or not, but Wang Lianwang's coffin face is the first time that his expression is so rich." ”
"Coffin face? Well, that's apt. Li He smiled and said: "The seniors will soon know whether what is said below is true or false." ”
Soon, the nine judges had tasted the mellow or strong, spicy or refreshing wines made by more than 30 wine masters, but the scores were never higher than Wang Lianwang's, and Li He even kept winning one or two points. It also made everyone on and off the stage more and more curious - what kind of peerless wine can make Wu Weihou so unforgettable, so many fine wines can not be compared.
As he was tasting the wine of the thirty-ninth place, the god of medicine suddenly frowned slightly.
"Senpai, what's wrong?" Li He noticed his abnormal appearance and asked.
"Do you smell it?" The god of medicine asked.
"Smell something?"
"Wine."
Li He smiled, shook the wine glass that still had half a glass in his hand, and said, "Although this wine is fragrant, it can be regarded as a fine wine, but it is still far from the peerless wine I have tasted. ”
"It's not this wine, it's another taste, it's very fragrant, it's very special, this taste...... It's the smell of wine, but the old man can't guess what kind of wine it is, or even what kind of wine. The medical god frowned.
Li He also sniffed intently, and sure enough, among the various aromas of wine in the air, there was the most special aroma of wine, which was the peerless wine he drank last night. looked at the side of the main platform, and sure enough, I saw Ziyan and the veiled Xiangxiang and Qianqian standing there, preparing to come up. Ziyan was holding a brownish-green wine cup in her hand, which was for Li He's exclusive use, and it contained a glass of peerless wine that people would never forget.
"Here comes my darlings." Li He smiled.
"Here are my babies?" The god of medicine followed his gaze and said in a daze.
"Ahem, ahem, it's my baby, not yours." Li He corrected.
The god of medicine took a deep breath: "Is this wine fragrance coming from that cup?" It's incredible, a peerless wine, really a peerless wine? ”
"Fortieth place, Situ Ziyan, Huyang Mansion!"
Ziyan was dressed in a goose-yellow gorgeous Luo skirt, holding a wine cup and slowly walking on stage, followed by Xiangxiang and Qianqian in a white dress.
For a while, there was silence on and off the stage, and all eyes followed the gentle steps and graceful posture of the three girls.
"What's the name of the wine?" Li Sihong asked, knowing that the woman in front of him was his daughter-in-law, his tone was also a lot softer.
Ziyan said softly: "Hongyan." The beautiful eyes glanced at Li He as if they were nothing.
"Hongyan? Well, that's an interesting name. Li Sihong nodded with a stroke.
It turned out to be a red face? Why Hongyan? What is the meaning of it? Li He was puzzled.
The god of medicine asked, "But why is there only one cup?" ”
"It's not a cup." Ziyan said.
"Then why only bring a cup?"
"Half a cup."
"Huh?!" The judges and everyone in the audience were surprised and exclaimed.
Li He hurriedly said before Ziyan: "This ...... The wine is delicious rather than the quantity, hehe, we are tasting the peerless wine, not the amount of wine, so a small glass is enough. ”
Xiangxiang and Qianqian stepped forward and took out a set of small cups prepared to distribute wine for several judges.
The wine cup used by Li He is many times larger than that of ordinary wine glasses, so half a glass is still enough to be divided into several portions and poured into nine small glasses. However, even if it is a small glass, there are only one-third of each person, and the judges frowned, but the tempting aroma of the wine in the cup makes everyone can't wait to taste it.
Wang Lian Wang in the audience also stretched his neck, paying close attention to the expressions of the judges on the stage, he was eager to see how superb and beautiful this peerless wine that Wu Weihou said was unparalleled in the world!
In addition to Li He, the eight people drank the wine in the cup almost at the same time, although the wine was so small that it almost entered the throat, but the taste of this wine did not decrease at all, the eight people and Li He drank this wine for the first time, all of them had several expressions, first the whole body was numb, and then the four flavors of sweet and sour, bitter and spicy were turned, and finally there was a sip of fragrance that made people sigh infinitely, infinitely aftertaste, and infinitely attached. Or, this is not just a fragrance that can be described, this kind of taste should be the most fragrant, the most beautiful, and the best taste that everyone's own taste can feel.
"Good!" I don't know who was the first to take a long breath, woke up from intoxication, and exclaimed, "Good wine! Peerless wine! The wine of the past few decades has been drunk in vain!! ”
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! Great! Li Sihong's admiration was strikingly similar to Li He's last night, and he really deserved to be father and son.
For a while, all the judges on the stage nodded in admiration, and there was no doubt about the beauty of this wine. However, it made the drunkards in the audience itch even more, and there was nothing more uncomfortable for them than letting the drunkards watch others drink peerless wine and not taste it.
Li He noticed that the medical god had been looking at the wine glass in a daze after drinking, and without saying a word, he couldn't help asking, "Senior, what's wrong with you?" ”
The god of medicine raised his eyes to look at him and said, "Why? ”
"Huh?" Li He was stunned: "What why?" ”
