Chapter 496 Buying Wine
After standing outside the cave for a long time, Duan Qing sighed helplessly and used the sword control technique to leave the Ten Thousand Corpses Cave.
He had already killed five silver corpses, and with the help of the mysterious woman, he had dozens of silver corpse inner pills in his hand, and even a dozen gold corpse inner pills, which was considered to have completed the task assigned by Mu Yu.
Although Mu Yu asked him to obtain ten silver corpse inner pills by himself, he had originally planned to do so, but now the situation has changed. The appearance of the mysterious woman has made it impossible for him to stay in the Ten Thousand Corpses Cave to hunt silver corpses.
The mysterious woman's mysterious identity, as well as her bizarre and outrageous strength and actions, made him subconsciously want to stay away from her.
Considering that the mysterious woman might still be in the Ten Thousand Corpses Cave, how could he still stay in the Ten Thousand Corpses Cave.
Returning to the Shinto Sect to report in this way was a bit of a trick, but he asked himself, relying on his own strength, it would not be difficult to hunt five more silver corpses, it just took some more time.
Sometimes, you still need to be flexible and not just stick to your head.
The Ten Thousand Corpses Cave is about 30,000 miles away from Shenzhou. When he came here, he asked for directions several times on the way, and it took him more than a day to reach the Ten Thousand Corpses Cave.
There is no need to ask for directions on the way back. If you rush at full speed, it will take less than a day.
However, Duan Qing did not return to Qingxu Mountain directly. Instead, he landed in a mortal city called Wuding City before dark, preparing to rest for a night before continuing on his way.
It was not because he was tired, but because he wanted to buy a pot of good wine for Xue Wanyun.
Before leaving, he told Xue Wanyun that if he could successfully complete the task, he would definitely bring a pot of good wine back for her.
He has always valued his promises, so how could he forget what he said.
Xue Wanyun took the trouble to bring him back to the Shinto Sect, and he saw all of this. It is possible that he is not grateful.
He cannot forget Xue Wanyun's kindness in terms of emotion and reason.
Therefore, he really wants to find a pot of good wine for Xue Wanyun.
Besides, it was still early for the ten-day deadline set by Mu Yu, so he had plenty of time.
It was already late, and Duan Qing found an inn in Wuding City to stay, preparing to find wine for Xue Wanyun after dawn the next day.
One night passed quickly.
Early the next morning, Duan Qing came to the lobby of the inn and woke up the drowsy yawning boy at the table.
"Little brother, I want to ask you something."
The boy was startled by Duan Qing's voice, and he woke up immediately. He wiped the saliva from his mouth and smiled at Duan Qing: "Hey, please tell me, sir."
"Where can I buy good wine in the city?" Duan Qing smiled.
The boy's eyes lit up when he heard this. "Sir, you have asked the right person. Speaking of fine wine, the most famous one in the whole Wuding City is the Zuixian Wine of Zuixianju."
"I am not bragging to you. Within a radius of dozens of miles in Wuding City, whenever a wealthy family holds a banquet that needs wine, the first thing they think of is definitely the Zuixian Wine of Zuixianju. Moreover, many immortal masters also like this wine and often visit Zuixianju, hehe...!"
The servant boasted incessantly, praising the Zuixian Wine in his mouth as rare in the sky and hard to find on the ground.
Seeing the saliva flying in the mouth of the servant, Duan Qing was speechless and smiled bitterly.
The servant's boasting reminded him of his past self.
He used to be a miscellaneous servant in his own inn. Whenever someone asked a similar question, he would naturally brag about his own Qin wine.
Therefore, he understood the servant's mentality.
"Then give me a pot!" Duan Qing stretched out his hand to suppress the servant's continued boasting, and asked him to serve the wine directly.
"Okay, wait for a moment in the inn, I'll get it right away." After the servant said this, he immediately trotted to the backyard of the inn.
The servant moved quickly, and soon brought a full pot of wine and a wine glass to the table.
Duan Qing found a table and sat down, filled a glass of wine, and tried to take a sip.
As soon as the wine entered his mouth, Duan Qing was stunned, and there seemed to be a look of reminiscence in his eyes.
Then, Duan Qing drank one cup after another, and soon finished the pot of wine.
Holding the empty wine pot, Duan Qing was a little dazed.
This wine, called Zuixian Niang, tastes very similar to his family's Qin wine, with only a few subtle differences.
It was for this reason that he, who doesn't like wine, drank a pot in a row.
When drinking this wine, he felt as if he had returned to the Woniu Inn in Xiao'an City in another world.
The Qin wine of his family has a unique taste. It is brewed with Erlan tea, a specialty of Erlan Country, as the wine yeast. The taste is very different from ordinary wine.
After his parents passed away and he went to the Middle Earth, he thought he would never have the chance to drink Qin wine again. Unexpectedly, he drank a wine so similar to Qin wine here today!
Fate is playing tricks on people!
"Is the store owner here?" At this time, an old voice interrupted Duan Qing's scattered thoughts.
I saw a white-haired, wrinkled, and skinny old man standing at the door of the inn and shouted softly.
The servant in the lobby hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face. "Sir, please come in."
The visitor is a guest. Although the old man in front of him is not good-looking, he opened a store to do business. Even if a beggar enters the store, there is no reason to drive people out.
The white-haired old man walked to the table next to Duan Qing and sat down. He closed his eyes and sniffed for a while. Then, he pointed to the wine pot on Duan Qing's table and said with a smile, "Please, please bring me a pot too."
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
As soon as he finished speaking, the servant immediately ran to the backyard again.
Today is really strange. Two guests came to drink early in the morning.
The boy was a little puzzled. Even though his Zuixianju's Zuixianjiang was famous, how could ordinary guests come to drink it so early in the morning?
He was puzzled, but he was too lazy to think so much. If the wine sold well, that was a good thing.
Soon, the boy brought a pot of Drunk Immortal Brew to the white-haired old man's table.
The white-haired old man couldn't wait to pour a glass. After sniffing it gently, he drank it all with an expression of enjoyment on his face.
Duan Qing glanced at the white-haired old man, without thinking too much, and said to the young man: "Second brother, please put a jar for me and take it away."
Before the boy could agree, he saw the happy face of the white-haired old man beside him and said to him: "Please, shopkeeper, give me a jar too."
"Two gentlemen, please wait a moment. The young man will come as soon as he leaves!" The young man looked happy and ran towards the backyard before he finished speaking.
This time it took the boy some time to return to the inn lobby with a large jar of wine in one hand.
"Two guests, you have been waiting for a long time. This is the Drunken Immortal you want...!"
Before the boy finished speaking, he suddenly saw a sinister young man wearing a python robe walking into the inn. He was stunned for a moment and his expression became a little unnatural.
After the boy placed the wine jars on the tables of Duan Qing and the white-haired old man respectively, he forced a smile on his face and said to the sinister young man: "Master Xu Xian, you are here!"
The sinister young man nodded slightly and glanced around the deserted lobby. His eyes stayed on Duan Qing for a moment, then he walked to a table near the door and sat down, tapping the wooden table rhythmically with his right hand.
"Is the Drunken Immortal Brew I want ready?"
