"You really think I'm a horse! No, no matter what you say, I won't be lucky. Ye Chen thrust his waist, snorted coldly and tilted his head to the side.

"Hey, forget it if you don't do it, I originally wanted to test you, and you shipped it up to give you something good. Since you don't want to, then I won't force it, I can do this alone. ”

The old man sighed lightly and glanced at Ye Chen with a little disappointment. Then he bent down and lifted a large strip of corn in a decent manner.

Ye Chen had been squinting at the old man, and when he heard him talk about what he had given him, Ye Chen's eyes suddenly lit up. But he quickly suppressed the idea of helping the old man. After all, the old man was so pitiful, Ye Chen wanted to see what he would do next.

"Where are you still doing the pestle? Don't you know how to give me a hand? Come and help me put these things in the kuang. ”

The old man had prepared a large thick bamboo basket before, and was now putting bags of sorghum and corn into it.

Ye Chen walked over after hearing this, staring at him with a smile.

"Old man, is there really anything good? I'll give it to me when I carry it?"

"Of course, I have a lot of good things in Sword Valley! When did I lie to you? If you ship it back, I'll give it to you immediately. The old man looked back at him and said.

"Really, let me state it first! When I go back, you must give me the good things, or I will throw them all down for you. ”

Ye Chen was instantly interested when he heard this, squatted down and supported his hands, easily lifted the bamboo basket full of sorghum corn, and followed the old man towards the Sword Valley with great interest.

Along the way, Ye Chen asked the old man sideways, wanting to find out what the good things were. But every time he asked about the key point, the old man was always vague, just unwilling to tell him what it was.

And the old man grasped the proportions very well, every time Ye Chen was tired and about to give up, he always mentioned his treasures coldly, which made Ye Chen reluctant to give up.

Along the way, the old man kept hanging Ye Chen's appetite, inspiring him to keep walking. Ye Chen was already tired, if he hadn't remembered the good things that the old man said, I'm afraid he would have thrown them away before he reached the mountainside.

Under Ye Chen's insistence and the old man's kindness, Ye Chen finally transported a large amount of grain to the bamboo house with great difficulty.

"Old man, what about the good things you said? Hurry up and bring them out to me. ”

Ye Chen threw away the bamboo basket, slumped on the ground and gasped, he stretched out a hand at the old man, and couldn't wait to ask him for good things.

"Don't worry! I won't be there yet, I'll give it to you when I get there. The old man laughed.

"What? I've already shipped the stuff here, don't fool me, hurry up and give me the good stuff, or I'll carry it again." ”

"I asked you to transport it up the mountain, but I didn't tell you where to transport it? If you work harder, it's almost there, and it's in the bamboo forest by the meditation lake, as long as you transport it to you, I will naturally give you the good things." ”

Hearing the old man say this, Ye Chen faintly felt that he had been fooled, but at this time, he had already transported most of the way. Wouldn't it be a big loss for him if he gave up?After thinking about it again, Ye Chen gritted his teeth and decided to get the good things first.

"Let's go!"

Ye Chen picked up the bamboo basket again and glared at the old man fiercely. The old man smiled indifferently and consciously walked in front of him.

In the pain and pressure, Ye Chen suffered for more than an hour, and finally arrived at the place the old man said weakly.

This bamboo forest is less than five miles away from Jingxin Lake, and the bamboo forest is full of bamboo, not even a single weed.

The old man also built a simple bamboo house here, and Ye Chen knew at first glance why the old man bought these grains and why he didn't live in the bamboo house before.

In this simple bamboo house, there is a complete set of brewing equipment on display, and there are four or five sealed vats neatly placed outside the bamboo house, and Ye Chen doesn't have to think about it to know what is inside.

"You bought so much grain just to make wine? Don't you see it! It turns out that you are also a hidden drunkard!" Ye Chen squinted and asked.

In order to make a good impression on you, I secretly drink here every day, and I don't dare to be as open as before. ”

"Then how dare you now? You are still asking me to transport grain with you?"

"Aren't you familiar with this? You are my apprentice, how can I not give you a little bit of this good thing? This is the good thing I told you, I have been brewing a good wine for thirty years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is ten miles of fragrance. ”

The old man smiled and came to an old bamboo in front of the door, and with his hand he turned over the soil of the bamboo root with his true qi. As the soil continued to fall off, a jar gradually appeared in front of the two of them.

"I'll tell you! I've drunk almost all these years, and I'm reluctant to drink it. Seeing that you are working so hard today, I will give you this jar of wine. The old man picked up the jar and reluctantly dealt with Ye Chen's hand.

"It's just a jar? You're really good enough to pick at the door! How much wine do you have to make with all this grain I transported? You want to send me away with a jar of wine?" Ye Chen squinted and said.

"Then how much do you want? Let me tell you, I won't exchange this jar of wine for me even if you give me a hundred taels of gold, and I will give it to you for the sake of you being my apprentice." If you don't want it, you will give it back to me!" the old man said and stretched out his hand, asking Ye Chen for the wine he had just given him.

"Don't even think about it, I tell you, this jar of wine is mine. Seeing this, Ye Chen immediately hugged the wine jar to death, for fear of being taken away by the old man.

"Also, since I am your apprentice, then everything you have will give me half of it. Otherwise, if you die in a hundred years, I won't bury you. ”

"You...... You're going to threaten me, you're going to threaten me, you're going to be in a hurry, I'm going to get you out of the valley, and you're looking for another apprentice. The old man said with wide eyes.

"Hehe, don't scare me, you're not going to let me go. There is only one heir in this Sword Valley in the past dynasties, and if you accept me, there is no reason to chase me. What's more, there is also the relationship between the old man of the Emperor Fu, how can you be willing to drive me away?" Ye Chen said with a smile.

"You ......" The old man's eyes widened when he heard this, and he couldn't find the words back and forth to Ye Chen for a while.

"Don't forget, half of this Sword Valley is mine, including the wine you brewed, if you don't give me good wine in the future, beware that I will smash all these vats of yours to pieces. ”

Ye Chen didn't give in at all, and after threatening the old man, he ran away with a jar of wine and a cigarette. He knew very well that if he continued to stay here and quarrel with the old man, he would really clean himself up if he didn't anger him.

Looking at Ye Chen's distant back, the old man shook his head helplessly.

"What kind of futile is this! What kind of enemy is it! Is my affection owed to you in my last life?"

The old man sighed for a while, then carried a large amount of grain into the hut by himself, and then lit a fire and began to make wine.

Ye Chen ran to the pavilion by the Meditation Lake with the wine in one go. After a moment's rest, he carefully unveiled the jar. The moment it was revealed, a rich aroma of wine suddenly came to the face. Just smelling the aroma of this wine, Ye Chen knew that this was a rare old wine.

He couldn't wait to pick up the jar and take a big sip when he lifted it.

"What a wine! I didn't think the old man would do this......"

Ye Chen wiped the corners of his mouth, and his admiration for the old man was a little more. Smelling the wine, he ignored the stamina of the wine, picked up the jar and drank it again.

As time passed, the stamina of the sake slowly came up. At this time, Ye Chen had already drunk half of the jar, and unconsciously felt that his head was getting heavier and heavier.

"Hehe, I didn't expect this to be quite strong. I was able to fascinate me, who was known as a thousand cups of not getting drunk, to such a point. Ye Chen squinted his eyes and poured around in the pavilion holding the wine jar. but he never fell.

In a daze, he had already forgotten everything, and at this time, he only had the wine in his arms in his eyes.

After another hour, a jar of wine was completely exhausted, and he finally couldn't support his body anymore, and fell down with a thud.

By the time Ye Chen woke up again, it was already three days later. He found that he was not in the pavilion, but in the bamboo house where the old man made wine.

He shook his head and got up, and found the old man lying leisurely on a bamboo chair, holding a broken fan in one hand and a bamboo cup full of wine in the other.

"Old man, your wine that has been stored for thirty years is really not bad! I am known as a thousand glasses of not drunk, but I didn't expect you to drink me down with this jar of wine. Ye Chen came to the old man and said with a smile.

When the old man heard this, he tilted his head slightly, and looked at him with disdain: "Hmph! Do you think my wine is a bargain that can be bought in those streets and alleys? This is what I brewed with real qi! Ordinary people get drunk after taking a sip, let alone drinking a jar." Do you know that you've been lying here for three days, sleeping like a dead pig, and you can't wake up no matter how you scream. ”

"Three days, isn't that exaggerated? Even though you're a little stronger, it won't make me lie down for three days!"

"Hmph, lying down for three days is not enough? If it weren't for your kid's true energy, you might not be able to wake up after lying down for ten days. Let me tell you, if ordinary people drank this jar of wine, they would be enough to get drunk to death three or four. The old man replied angrily.

"Old man, you said that your wine is so good, can you give me another jar? I will definitely take it seriously this time, and promise not to get drunk again!" Ye Chen laughed, cheekily wanting to ask for another jar of wine.

"Do you still want it, I don't have much of that wine you drink, I don't have much in stock, even if I want to drink it, I have to pick a day, giving you a jar is already cheaper, do you still want a second jar?" the old man replied cautiously?
