Jinwu national capital, Lijing.

Lijing, which has Shangwen and Wudu, is known as Da'an in the world, has three uniques, one must be the killing array in the imperial city, the Zhengqi Qianguan array, the legend is that this array is together, one husband is the pass, ten thousand people are not open, even if dozens of palace level masters are in front of this array, they will hate on the spot if they don't pay attention to it, so this array is also known as the killing array.

The second must is the Wangfu Sea outside the capital, that is a sea of flowers, at the beginning of each war, the wives of the soldiers will stay there, send their husbands to the battle, if the husband of the family dies on the battlefield, his wife will plant a flower there, over time, there are more and more flowers, now stretching for thousands of miles, called the sea of flowers.

At the same time, Du Kang is also a tribute wine, some people call it immortal wine, and the literati of the past dynasties have also solved an indissoluble bond with it.

In the city, regardless of men, women and children, he can be illiterate, illiterate, but he can't be ignorant of Du Kang, on the street on one side are literati and writers, they write poems and get drunk, intoxicated, on the other hand, they are Jianghu warriors, they drink a lot of wine, indulge in wine and sing, and have a heroic temperament.

Some people even say that Du Kang is the royal wine, and some people say that Du Kang is the wine of the immortal family, and then the emperor of Jinwu said, Du Kang is everyone's Du Kang, just as Jinwu is everyone's Jinwu.

Many people therefore worship the emperor's words, Jinwu is a big country, Du Kang is the national wine, people's attitude towards wine is like the attitude towards Jinwu, and Jinwu's attitude towards wine is also the attitude towards people.

"Today there is a batch of wine in Lijing, it is Du Kang"

The king of Tianyu County put this batch of wine into the mansion and sent it to the three counties together with the list of people in the three counties a few months later, Ling Wu's wine had a total of ten bottles, and the county lord left a few bottles and sent two bottles to the sloppy man under the restaurant.

The sloppy man came to Chen Zhiming with wine and gave him a bottle, Chen Zhiming didn't drink much, and was about to refuse, but the sloppy man said on the side;

"This is tribute wine, which is paid to the emperor every year, and ordinary people can't drink it."

Seeing that Chen Zhiming was still indifferent.

The scruffy man said again;

"Du Kang, the only tribute wine in Jinwu, it also has a name, called Xianjiu, do you know its origin?"

Seeing this, Chen Zhiming became interested and asked:

"Where did it come from?"

"This starts with a story from a long time ago"

The sloppy man took a sip of Du Kang and exhaled a long sigh of satisfaction

Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a man named Tu Bran, who dreamed of a white-bearded old man one night, and he told him that he would be given a spring of water, and that he needed to find three different drops of human blood in the opposite mountain within nine days, and drop them into it to get the most beautiful drink in the world. When I got up the next day, I found that there was a spring in front of the door, and the water was clear and transparent. So he went out into the mountains to look for three drops of blood. On the third day, he met a literati, and after reciting a poem to get closer to him, he asked him to cut off his finger and drip a drop of blood. On the sixth day, after meeting a samurai, after explaining his intentions, the samurai did not say a word, and decisively cut his fingers and dripped a drop of blood. On the ninth day, when he saw a stupid man sleeping under the tree, he vomited and was unbearable, and when the deadline had come, he spent a tael of silver and bought a drop of his blood. After the turn, the chaff drops three drops of blood into the spring, and the spring water immediately rolls, the heat increases, the aroma is tangy, and the taste is like a fairy. Because it took nine days and three drops of blood, the chaff named the drink "wine".

Because of the three drops of blood of Xiucai, samurai, and fool at work, people also follow these three procedures when drinking: in the first stage, they raise their glasses to congratulate each other and persuade each other, as if Xiucai was reciting poems; In the second stage, after three rounds of wine, love to victory, not much to say, drink it all, like a samurai generous and bold; In the third stage, drunk and crazy, or lying on the ground and vomiting, or vomiting wildly, or lying everywhere, like a stupid person unconscious and shameless.

Later, he met a man who loved to drink and named Liulin, who was famous for being a good drinker and could drink. The amount of alcohol is unparalleled in the world.

At that time, he was dissatisfied with the rule of the dynasty, and traveled everywhere, drinking wherever he went. Once, Liu Lin came to the front of the Duchran Wine Workshop in Nanfudian Town, Longmen, Qingyang, and looked up to see a couplet on the door, which read: "The tiger is drunk in the mountains with a cup, and the dragon sleeps at the bottom of the sea" The horizontal batch is: "Don't get drunk for three years and don't need money"

Liu Ling got angry when she saw this pair, and said in her heart: You haven't opened a tavern to visit first, who doesn't know that Liu Ling drinks a lot, from south to north, from east to west, southeast and northwest, and he didn't get me drunk for a long time. You dare to boast that you don't want money for three years without getting drunk. Liu Lin entered the tavern angrily, and Tuk Bran took out the wine for him to drink. After drinking one cup and drinking it, he brought a second cup of chaff, and Liu Lin drank it after he drank it. Tuk chaff said, don't drink it, if you drink it again, you will get drunk, but he didn't listen, and asked for a third cup. After three glasses of wine, Liu Lin said: "The first glass of wine is as sweet as honey, the second glass of wine is sweeter than honey, and after drinking three glasses of wine, I only feel that the sky is turning, the earth is also turning, and I am dizzy." "He was drunk. At this time, Tuk Bran came over and said to Liu Lin, "How is it?" Has the gentleman drunk enough? Liu Lin said drunkly: "Enough, enough, it's really elixir." As he spoke, he took out the wine money in his pocket, and when he touched it, the money bag was empty, so he said hesitantly: "Shopkeeper, I forgot to bring the money, let's keep an account first, and return it to you another day." Liu Lin said, walked out of the wine shop and walked back. He staggered all the way to his home, and as soon as he entered the door, he fell to the ground, and his daughter-in-law hurriedly helped him to the bed. Liu Lin felt that he couldn't do it, and quickly explained to his daughter-in-law: "I'm going to die, bury me in the wine pool, cover it with wine lees, and put the wine cup and wine jug in the coffin for me." "After speaking; Liu Lin is really dead. He loved to drink all his life, and his daughter-in-law buried him according to his instructions.

Before I knew it, three years had passed. On this day, Du Bran came to the village to ask Liu Lin for wine money, and Liu Lin's daughter-in-law was very annoyed when she heard this, and said: "He didn't know whose wine he drank three years ago, and he died when he came back." I drank your wine! You're still asking for wine, and I'm going to have to ask for someone!" He said, "He's not dead, he's drunk!" Take me to the place where he is buried. In this way, they came to the place where Liu Lin was buried, and when they opened the coffin, they saw that Liu Lin was neatly dressed, and his face was ruddy, just like before his death. Tuk chaff stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder; shouted: "Wake up Liulin! Wake up in Liulin! I saw that Liu Lin really yawned, stretched out his arm, opened his eyes, and said in a loud voice: "Tuk chaff is good wine!" Tuk bran good wine! Since then, the words "chaff and wine, drunk for three years" have spread.

Since then, it has been spread among the people that "the world's best wine is a few chaff, and the largest amount of wine is Liulin." drank three cups of chaff wine, and drunk Liulin for three years. It is the story of "Tuk Bran Makes Wine and Drunk Willow Forest".

"But this doesn't prove that Du Kang wine, and there is a difference between Du Kang and Du Kang, right?"

Chen Zhiming expressed his incomprehension.

The scruffy man motioned for him to listen.

"That was a long time ago, and the next story is also about why Du Kang was liked by the Chinese people, and it became a tribute wine and immortal wine."

Hundreds of years ago, when there was no Jinwu Khotanyuan, Wanzhou three countries, that was a chaotic era, the group of heroes rose together, Zhuolu Central Plains, the war that lasted for a hundred years almost broke a lot of inheritance, including the chaff wine, until the back, a country called the Zhou State dominated the world, at that time, the life was ruined, and a hundred wastes were waiting to be rebuilt, so the Zhou State began to restore the national strength and people's livelihood for decades, and after a few decades, all parts of the world gradually recovered their vitality and gradually prospered, Among them, there is a businessman named Zhuang Youqian in an accident to find the remnants of the chaff wine, he found a lot of people to help, want to make the chaff wine of the year, but for many years, still do not know the trick, but for many years they found another way, according to the original brewing method to study another wine, after the Zhou State was attacked by many parties, had to empty the treasury, in order to make armaments, it took several years to finally pacify the war, but the good times did not last long, decades later the Zhou State had disputes again, resulting in the destruction of lives everywhere, As a result, there were many uprisings in various places, and then there was a dark age.

Decades later, three powerful rebel armies appeared in the rebel armies in various places, and they cooperated with each other and joined forces to suppress and pacify other forces in one fell swoop, but a war broke out between the three forces, and the third place at that time was the founder of our Jinwu, the founding emperor, Li Lingjin.

At that time, Li Lingjin's military and financial resources were the least, just when he was about to be annexed by the other two, a man named Du Kang found him, and brought him huge wealth, and the root of this wealth is that the group of businessmen studied and found a new way of chaff wine, when the world was in turmoil, the new chaff wine production method came to his hands after several turns, and he was saved by Li Lingjin in the early years, so Du Kang began to secretly collect wine-making materials, and found some friends to make wine with him, They then made a fortune by selling the wine to the other two powers, and when the leaders of the two powers learned of this, they ordered that anyone who was found selling or drinking chaff in any territory under their jurisdiction should be killed.

And Li Lingjin also turned around, and the other two major forces contained each other, until a few years later they successively established the country as the emperor, established their own country, and the original life-saving wine was the founding emperor as a tribute wine, only for the people of Jinwu country, at that time Du Kang died, the emperor in order to commemorate him, he changed the name of the chaff wine to Du Kang, in order to remember his friends.

"I see, then how do you know the secret recipe of the original chaff wine?"

Chen Zhiming looked at him.

The sloppy man smiled confidently and looked up;

"Guessed"

After speaking, he didn't give Chen Zhiming a reaction and strode away, and said in his mouth

"How to solve the ...... worries"

Chen Zhiming looked at his back and muttered

"Really...... Is it a solution to worries? ”

After saying that, he poured a sip of wine, and suddenly a spicy heat spread throughout his body.

But then a fresh fragrance rose from the throat, and then ...... There was no aftermath.

Because the boy took a sip, he was already drunk on the side of the street.

The sloppy man on the side walked to the restaurant and found a place by the window, where a woman in green clothes sat opposite him, looking at the drunk young man with a thoughtful look.
