Tenkai Dobu

Chapter 397 Wine

Fruit, all fruit.

They went in through the door on the left hand side. Behind the door was not a straight passage, but a winding one, which seemed to be specially designed. I don't know what it was for. After several detours, Lu Ziyu saw a huge stone room; It is at least ten feet long and wide, and about the same height.

The inside is full of fruits, and the stone chamber is full of various fruits, and half of the stone chamber is already full.The fruits are neatly placed according to the types, and the stone chamber is full of the fragrance of fruits.

"Wow, it turns out that there are so many empty fruit trees on the island, and the fruits have all come here!"

Yan Ruyu looked at the mountains of fruits and exclaimed. When they checked the island, they saw a lot of empty fruits. They thought that the monkeys had eaten them all, but unexpectedly they all picked them here.

"Go, see the next one!"

Lu Ziyu looked at these fruits, with a smile on his face, and finally waved his hand.

The Monkey King kept looking at Lu Ziyu worriedly, and when he heard Lu Ziyu's voice, his face relaxed, as if he was relieved.It has been worried that these people will take the fruit from the hole.

This time, I went to the stone room on the right hand side. This stone room is still winding; the inside is bigger than the stone room just now, and unlike the stone room just now, the inside is a bit like a factory; each one is huge. The stone troughs are stacked together like steps; several gray monkeys are putting fruits one by one into the stone troughs, and they stop their movements and watch curiously when they hear them come in.

"My lord, what are they doing?"

Yan Ruyu couldn't help asking, the smell of alcohol was very strong in this stone room, she couldn't help inhaling, her face full of intoxication.

"Wine!"

Lu Zi smiled foolishly and said that he had read in books that monkeys could make wine, and he thought it was made up by those people. Maybe monkeys are just used to storing fruits, and they fermented slowly after a long time.But the probability of this is very low, and the environment is slightly wrong. The fermented wine may not be wine, but poison or something. I didn't expect these monkeys to make wine.

These stone troughs are about one foot long, more than three feet wide and high, half of them are still empty, some of them are filling with fruit, and some of them have been sealed, so you can't see what's inside.These stone troughs are independent and obviously man-made. From the above, they are all chopped out by masters with swords, and they were directly chiseled from some rocks from nowhere.

"What about the brewed wine?"

After looking around, there was no brewed wine here, so Lu Ziyu hurriedly asked the Monkey King.It's all brewing here, no wine at all.Moreover, seeing that this island has not been visited by humans for a long time, these monkeys do not know how much wine they have brewed.

There are many stone troughs here that are different. Some stone troughs seem to be cut out by people in the past with swords, while some stone troughs seem to be polished. The shapes are also different, but most of them are imitations. A stone trough cut by a sword.This is obviously because the stone trough is not enough, but there is no one to make it. These monkeys even polished the stone trough by themselves. Although it is not as big as the one made by humans, it can still be used.

Hearing Lu Ziyu's words, the Monkey King showed a bit of reluctance, and finally stretched out his front paws and pointed out.

"You said it was in the remaining stone room?"

There are only three stone chambers here, if it is not in these two, then it can only be in the remaining one.I don't know if this kind of storage process was ordered by the previous people, or these monkeys spontaneously.If the previous people taught it well, that's okay, but if these monkeys do it spontaneously, it's interesting.

The stone room in the middle is interesting, there is a stone door inside, and it is not thin.There are two stone rings on it, the Monkey King stepped forward and slowly pushed the stone door open, then stood aside, waiting for Lu Ziyu and others to enter before it followed.But the silver monkey who had been following behind him didn't come in, but just stood outside the door and looked in anxiously.

This stone room is also very large, much larger than the one used for brewing wine. It seems that the entire mountain has been hollowed out, and the height is also very high. The jars, which are one and a half tall, are piled up five layers before they reach the top.There are large wine jars piled up in the stone room. The wine jars are very big, two or three times larger than ordinary bathtubs, and the wine inside must be at least a thousand catties.It was covered with a stone lid, and the mouth was sealed with mud.

"Wow, there are so many, at least tens of thousands of altars!"

Yan Ruyu opened her eyes wide and wanted to count, but she gave up before counting to ten. There were too many, and she couldn't count in a short time.

"It should be more than that!"

Lu Ziyu looked around, and it must be tens of thousands.There are a few empty jars at the door, and there is one lid that is not covered, and there is still half of the wine in it, exuding a burst of wine fragrance.Lu Ziyu took out a bowl, scooped up a bowl and looked at it. The whole wine was jasper-colored. Although it was a bit cloudy, the aroma was very strong.He didn't drink it, but poured back the wine in the bowl, because he saw a stone barrel next to it, and there was still wine left in it. The wine seemed to be drunk by these monkeys, and he didn't want to drink it from these monkeys. saliva.

"Is this what you drank?" he asked.

"squeak"

The Monkey King yelled and nodded.

Seeing the monkey king nodding, Lu Ziyu knew that the monkeys must drink these wines, otherwise, no one has come to this island for many years, how could there be only this little wine in stock, and most of them should be drunk by these monkeys .He looked around the stone room again, and asked the Monkey King again, "Which jar of wine has the longest storage time here?"

After this question was asked, the Monkey King didn't seem to understand. He scratched his head, looked at the densely packed wine jars and thought for a long time, and then pointed to a pile of wine jars in the innermost corner and yelled a few times.

Lu Ziyu looked in the direction it pointed, and there were indeed some different wine jars there, with a lot of dust on them, and those wine jars were also neat and tidy, unlike those near the door, there were some wine jars inside that looked like It was also polished by the monkey himself, not very regular.

Looking at the appearance of hundreds of jars here, and looking at the surrounding positions, he directly floated away, supported a wine jar above his mouth with his palm, and slowly fell to the ground.The Monkey King saw that Lu Ziyu could fly, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was open but he didn't make a sound.

"bang"

Lu Ziyu put the wine jar on the ground, and the wine jar should weigh more than 1000 catties including the stone jar; and when he got it just now, the wine jar and the wine jar were stuck together, thanks to the strength of these monkeys , otherwise it is just like the altar and they all don't move.

I patted the dust on my hands, I don’t know how many years it hasn’t been touched, these monkeys don’t know how to clean it, the dust on it is almost an inch thick, and it’s all fixed on it, even the mud seal on the lid can be seen less than.He took out a knife and prepared to shovel away everything on it with the knife.

"Young master, come on, little old man!"

Old man Qian came over with a wink, reached out and took the knife, and began to clean up the things on it.It's a bit high, and he had to put things under his feet to touch it. The dust on it has been too long, and it is harder than ordinary stones. Fortunately, old man Qian is a master. If ordinary people can't shovel it, maybe the wine jar All smashed.

After a while, old man Qian cleaned up all the dust on it, revealing the stone cover: "Do you want to open it?"

"Open"

Without hesitation, old man Qian patted the lid a few times, and then the lid came loose.Gently removed the lid with both hands, nothing happened, even the smell of wine did not come out, as if it was empty.

Lu Ziyu also stepped on the mat and looked inside, and finally asked Yan Ruyu for a spoon or two to put into the wine jar.

There was no wine in the spoon, only something like a turquoise crystal, which looked very beautiful.Only at this time can one smell a faint scent of wine. Although it is very faint, it is intoxicating. The people below couldn't help but sniff it vigorously.

Lu Ziyu put the spoon to his nose and smelled it, and the stronger aroma of wine entered his nose, and then he seemed to be drunk, and couldn't help shouting: "Good wine!"

After thinking about it for the last time, he still poured the wine from the spoon into the wine jar. This is not a place to drink, and he doesn't know how strong the wine is. If he gets drunk, it won't be fun.
