Chapter Forty-Six: Never Forget

Xiao Yun raised his hand and took down all three copies of the Medicinal Herb Treasure.

The upper, middle and lower three treasures are very different, the upper volume is the thinnest, the second volume is second, and the middle volume is the thickest, and it feels like there are thousands of pages.

Xiao Yun opened the first volume, only to see that the first page clearly wrote the four big words "General Outline of Medicinal Herbs", and looked down at the moment.

"I didn't expect that the herbs used to brew war wine would be so exquisite. Xiao Yun didn't look at it carefully, flipped through the first volume for a while, and muttered.

Although he only watched it for a while, Xiao Yun already had a vague understanding of the profession of wine taster.

To become a qualified wine taster, it is the most basic talent to be able to taste the ratio of wine to intoxication, and at the same time, it is necessary to have a deep understanding of various herbs and even the winemaking process.

The first step is to learn more about each herb that can make wine.

This step is not simple, and it does not mean that it is enough to be familiar with the form and characteristics of each herb, because it is impossible to use only one herb in sake brewing, and it is a mixture of many herbs to brew, so it is necessary to be familiar with the changes that occur after the mixing of various herbs.

For example, Dragon Grass and Ice Fruit are two herbs that can be used to make war wine, but in addition to wine power and drunkenness, Dragon Grass also contains fire poison, while Ice Fruit is the opposite, which contains cold poison, if the two are mixed, the fire poison and cold poison will melt at the same time, and if the ratio is not right, the brewed war wine will contain severe poison and cannot be drunk.

This is just the simplest example, because the fire poison and cold poison contained in the dragon grass or cold ice fruit at different temperatures are also very different, so the heat of other herbs used to neutralize the toxin must also be controlled, so that the actual process of brewing war wine becomes very complicated.

What's more, many high-grade war wines are brewed, not only only two kinds of herbs, but may require more than ten or even dozens of herbs to be brewed together, and the complexity can be imagined.

After having a general understanding of these, Xiao Yun couldn't help but gasp.

Originally, he saw that there were only three books, and he had a contempt in his heart, how could a month be enough to memorize these three books, and then he realized that if according to the outline, let alone a month, it is a year, and if he wants to thoroughly understand the relationship between various medicinal herbs, I am afraid it is far from enough.

"Read these three books first, and then talk about the rest. Xiao Yun said secretly.

He Shangshu just instructed Xiao Yun to familiarize himself with the "Medicinal Herb Treasure", and did not mention other requirements, thinking that He Shangshu also understood that if he wanted Xiao Yun to figure out the relationship between various medicinal herbs in just one month, it was also impossible.

In this way, Xiao Yun felt that the task in the next month was arduous, and he originally thought that he could have a few days left to read other books, but now it seems that it may be enough.

But no matter what, the wine wave recipe still has to find time to cultivate.

After a while, Xiao Yun came to the bed with the three books of "Medicinal Herb Treasures", sat down, and immediately began to read carefully.

The first volume of "Medicinal Herb Treasures" is only a few dozen pages, and since this book is an outline, it does not need to be memorized like the middle and second volumes, but after an hour, Xiao Yun has already read it through.

During the reading, it was inevitable to compare before and after, at the beginning, Xiao Yun still looked back and forth, but after a while, the expression on his face became more and more strange, and later, he never looked forward again, once reading to the end.

Slowly closing the book, Xiao Yun closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something, his expression seemed to be smiling rather than smiling, and he looked more and more strange.

After a while, he finally opened his eyes and picked up the thickest middle book.

After flipping through more than ten pages this time, Xiao Yun suddenly stopped.

"How can this be?" Xiao Yun muttered suddenly, with a strange expression on his face and a touch of incomprehension.

It turned out that in the middle of reading, Xiao Yun quickly discovered a problem, that is, he seemed to have the ability to never forget.

When he first read it, he still looked back and forth, but after three times, Xiao Yun found that although the previous content was only read through, he could not memorize it, but whenever he remembered the content that needed to be corresponded to in his mind, the previous content immediately appeared in his mind, and it was word-for-word!

When reading the middle volume, this strange phenomenon is even more confirmed.

Each page in the middle volume describes the form, efficacy, and properties of a medicinal herb, as well as the relationship with other medicinal herbs, densely packed with thousands of words, but after Xiao Yun glanced at it, he could immediately recite everything word for word in his mind.

This simply made Xiao Yun feel extremely strange.

Xiao Yun certainly knows his memory ability very well, before he came to this world, his memory was very ordinary, and his speed of memorizing during school could only be considered moderate at most, but now it is ten times stronger?

How could this be? Xiao Yun was extremely strange.

"Could it be that because I came to this wine world, my memory has also changed?" Xiao Yun secretly guessed.

But in retrospect, he hasn't had any special feelings since he came to this world.

Holding the "Medicinal Herb Treasure" in his hand, Xiao Yun was stunned, and after a long while, he came back to his senses from meditation.

"Forget it!" Xiao Yun still had a strange and puzzled look on his face, but at this time, he was more happy and excited, "Anyway, no matter how it came to be, familiar with these three books, it seems that the time will be greatly shortened." ”

Obviously, according to Xiao Yun's previous memory, it would be impossible to read and memorize these three books for several months, but now that he has the strange ability to remember, this task has become too simple.

I'm afraid it will only take five days at most to memorize them all.

Xiao Yun's eyes slowly lit up, and his gaze immediately moved to the bookshelf, where there were still hundreds of books, if he could really memorize the "Medicinal Herb Treasure" within five days, then the remaining twenty days, even if he couldn't read all the books on the shelf and memorize them, he would be able to read most of them.

Thinking like this, Xiao Yun couldn't help but smile excitedly on his face, and he didn't delay any longer, picked up the middle book that he had just read more than ten pages, and continued to look down.

However, after making sure that he really had the ability to remember, Xiao Yun's reading speed was greatly accelerated, and he almost flipped down ten lines at a glance.

Before you know it, it's dark.

"Pengpeng", there was a soft knock on the door.

Xiao Yun was still concentrating on reading, and was suddenly awakened, thinking that He Shangshu was coming, so he hurriedly got up and got out of bed, and responded, "Please come in." ”

The door creaked open, and a Tsing Yi slave walked in, holding a red lacquered wooden plate with several steaming dishes in it.

"Childe, please. ”

The Tsing Yi slave walked in the door, gently placed the food on the long table, took out the fire fold, lit the oil lamp on the long table, and the room immediately lit up.

At this time, Xiao Yun realized that it was already dark, and he had unconsciously read it for so long, and when he saw the food on the long table, Xiao Yun's stomach immediately "cooed" twice.

The slave in Tsing Yi said respectfully: "After the son finishes eating, just put the wooden plate outside the door." With that, he bowed and pushed out, closing the door gently.

After reading "Medicinal Herb Treasures" for so long, Xiao Yun was awakened at this time, and he also felt a little tired, stretched his waist, walked to the long case and began to gobble it up.

From entering this tasting room to now, at least two or three hours should have passed, Xiao Yun has finished reading the first volume and a small half of the middle volume, and has memorized all the contents in his mind, if He Shangshu came to take the school examination Xiao Yun at this time, I am afraid that he would be more surprised than during the enrollment assessment.

After discovering that he had the ability to never forget, Xiao Yun was not in a hurry to read through the "Medicinal Herb Treasure Book" for a while, and thought: "I will watch so much today, and after eating, I will start to cultivate the wine wave technique." ”

After a while, Xiao Yun finished eating, put the wooden plate outside the door, returned to the room, and walked to the bed.

But as soon as he took two steps, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at the bookshelf.

"It's better to read what is written in other books first, and then it's not too late to cultivate. Thinking like this, Xiao Yun turned on the oil lamp and came to the bookshelf.
