But I'm a male fox

If Li Cheng came here, he would definitely be so angry that he would do it himself and teach the people in Heihuzhai what is the art of tortoise binding.

The guards outside the door were also very slack, and they only came to see him every quarter of an hour. As for what the guards were doing at other times...

"Hey, have you heard that yesterday He Lao Liu and a sheep..."

"Really or not, can sheep be used too?"

"Why lie to you, let me tell you, the sheep are very comfortable..."

Yes, it is like that.

Is there such a shortage of women on the mountain?

How sad!

But no matter what he said, Xu Jing realized that he might escape.

It's embarrassing to be captured... Instead of waiting to be redeemed, it's better to run away to save some reputation, otherwise this young man really has nothing to do.

Later in the day, when the two guards were dozing off, Xu Jing started to act.

Quietly freeing himself from the rope, he slipped out of the cabin, and then encountered a small problem.

He doesn't know the way.

After wandering around for a long time, and after avoiding two or three waves of patrolling soldiers, Xu Jing saw a courtyard lit up on the mountainside. He didn't think much about it at the moment, and poked over like a moth.

Climbing up the courtyard wall, stretching his head, he saw Wang Zhan in white again.

He shivered in fright. After all, Wang Zhan had an eighth-rank strength, which was much stronger than him.

Xu Jing calmed down, sneaked around to the edge of the cliff from the other side, leaned against the wall, and eavesdropped on the news inside.

A little leader was complaining to Wang Zhan: "That old thief Xiao is too powerful. The brothers didn't grab anything today, and there are so many casualties. I feel resentment in my heart."

"Seventh-rank martial arts are indeed difficult to deal with, but they can only be rampant for a while, don't be afraid."

Wang Zhan shook his head confidently and said, "I found a 500-year-old Chaoyuan grass a few days ago, which will surely make the master break through the third grade!"

Outside the wall, Xu Jing frowned.

In his understanding, the head of Heihuzhai is the same as the owner of Feiyun Villa, and they are also seventh-rank warriors, but there is a difference in age and experience, so every time they confront the owner, they will fall into a disadvantage.

But if the other party really took the grass and directly promoted to the sixth rank, things would be completely different.

He continued leaning against the wall to listen carefully, and the little leader immediately asked:

"Second master, are you serious?"

"Of course it's true. It's just that this matter got out of my mouth and into your ears. Don't let a third person know about it."

"Don't worry, Second Master, I have always had a good reputation of being tight-lipped in the cottage, and everyone knows it!"

The little leader resolutely finished his promise, and then asked with a smile: "I wonder when the big boss will be able to take the medicine and break through? I heard that Feiyun Manor needs money and meat, but I really can't wait!"

"Although I am not an immortal cultivator who knows how to make alchemy, I also know a little about Qihuang's art. I put this chaoyuan herb in the pharmacy. After it has been exposed to the sun for twelve hours at noon, it can be ground into powder. Take it with cow blood."

"Isn't that very soon? What a happy event! The second leader is really amazing!"

"Haha, thank you..."

After the two chatted, Wang Zhan went out and sent the little leader away.

Xu Jing also took the opportunity to stay away from the yard, but instead of running away immediately, he began to think.

Do you want to steal that herb along the way?

If he succeeds, he will be equivalent to saving Feiyun Village, no matter how you think about it, it will be a great achievement!

I just don't know where the pharmacy Wang Zhan mentioned is, but it doesn't matter, if you look slowly, you can definitely find it!

In this way, there is no need to leave so early.

He tiptoed back to the wooden house where he was imprisoned, and found that the two guards were still asleep, so he sat back on the chair and pretended to tie himself up with a rope.

When you get the chance, go out and explore.

Inside Feiyun Village.

Li Cheng determined his target, and immediately went to find Xiao Yumei again.

After looking around, I found that this beautiful woman went to the medical clinic in Zhuang Nei alone at this moment.

As Feiyunzhuang is so big, it is natural that there is a resident doctor.

It was a doctor from outside, also surnamed Li, and at the moment he was leading two apprentices, applying medicine to the wounded all over the floor.

Because there were too many wounded, there was not enough space in the hospital, and most of them were lying on the ground outside. When outsiders came, they could only walk on empty feet.

The groaning sound is mixed with a strong herbal smell, which makes people dizzy as soon as they enter.

Xiao Yumei didn't care, she was discussing with Mr. Li to see if she could buy some cheaper medicines and save as many people as possible.

Although the palm marks on her face have not faded, as a mature woman who manages half of Zhuangzi all the year round, she quickly came out of the lost mood and went to do what she can still do now.

Unfortunately, Li Langzhong failed to give her good news: "Second Grandma, the medicine in the village will be used up in at most two days, and there is no cheap medicine now. There is a rebellion in the south, and half of the commercial roads have been cut off. Just relying on buying medicine from the north, it will be expensive to maintain the original price."

"Ah, but the Zhuangzi really can't get more money for a while... The sales of the last batch of wine are not good, and the income has dropped by more than half than expected."

So, is Xiao Yumei very short of money now?

This should be the problem mentioned in the mission, right?

However, Li Cheng thought to himself that he couldn't think of any way to make money for a while... Wait!

This Feiyun Village earns money by selling wine?

As a time traveler, Li Cheng gradually had an idea in his head, stepped out and said loudly, "Mrs. Xiao!"

"Mr. Li, why are you here?"

"I have a way to make wine, maybe it can help Madam solve her urgent needs!"

Chapter 38 Wine making is the characteristic of time travel, you must taste it

"Mr. Li still makes wine?"

If an ordinary person suddenly ran up to Xiao Yumei and said such nonsense, she would definitely not believe it.

Wine making is a technical job, and it's not just lying in bed and swiping your phone, just casually swiping for a day.

But as a storyteller, Li Cheng has always given people the impression of being knowledgeable, and he performed extremely well in the previous thief incident, so Xiao Yumei didn't immediately deny it.

"A little bit, a little bit."

Li Cheng didn't waste any time, and directly expressed his request to Xiao Yumei.

Ready-made cheap wine, a room to make a fire, and some ceramic bowls and bottles, steamers and the like.

That's right, he's going to make distilled spirits.

To put it bluntly, it is to use the lower boiling point of alcohol than water to purify alcohol with a lower concentration into spirits with a higher concentration through the process of distillation.

He also read many time-traveling novels in his previous life, and the basic principle and operation process are still clear. Of course, due to time constraints, he must not be able to make a glass retort.

The success rate... Naturally, I can't guarantee it.

But it's ok to try.

Xiao Yumei was also thinking the same thing, after all Li Cheng didn't want much, so there was no harm in trying.

So, early the next morning, Li Cheng followed the steward to the prepared courtyard.

Besides Xiao Yumei, Zhu Chongxiu and Xiao Wan'er also followed.

"You really know how to make wine, but don't brag. If you ruin the good wine, see how I will train you tomorrow in the martial arts arena."

Xiao Wan'er was as usual, unforgiving.

"Sister Wan'er, brother, he always keeps what he says." Zhu Chongxiu who was beside him said confidently, "Just look at it."

"You girl, you believe him. I think you don't think your practice is hard enough, do you?"

"Ah, Sister Wan'er, how dare I, please forgive me!"

The two girls made a fuss, while Li Cheng walked into the hut alone.

Set up the pots and pans, light the fire, and then pour the wine, the first attempt...

Did not control the temperature well, failed.

He is no longer a high school student with a lot of knowledge, and the most basic experimental operation skills have been returned to the chemistry teacher.

Fortunately, there are still enough drinks, come again!

It took a full hour for Li Cheng to purify the rich wine.

"Fortunately not humiliated."

Opening the door, the strong aroma of wine filled the small courtyard, attracting Xiao Wan'er and Zhu Chongxiu who were taking time to practice martial arts nearby.

Zhu Chongxiu is still young and doesn't know much about wine, but Xiao Wan'er is not drunk after a thousand cups, as soon as she smells it, she can feel the difference.

"Is this really made out of the wine I gave you?"

"Of course, do you want to try it?"

Xiao Wan'er took a sip, and then started to stick out her tongue: "It's so spicy! How is it possible..."

"Spicy is right."

Regarding Xiao Wan'er's surprised expression, Li Cheng said it was very applicable.

Xiao Yumei also rushed over under the notice of the steward.

Although the beautiful woman doesn't like to drink very much, she is very clear about what kind of wine can be sold and what value it is.She only took a sip, and she was sure that Li Cheng's wine was definitely a priceless treasure in the current north and south of the Qingxuan Mountains!

Unprecedented strong, not everyone will like to drink it, but everyone who has tasted it will definitely feel that other wines are bland!

Perhaps there is something similar in the brew of the fairies?But Li Cheng only used the most common materials, and the cost was not in the same dimension at all!

It is that the brewing process consumes more ordinary wine, that is, more food is consumed, but this can also be compensated by higher prices, not to mention that Feiyunzhuang is not very short of food and grass.

If you can earn more silver taels, you will have the money to buy medicine for the injured.

This is really...

Xiao Yumei thought that Li Cheng might give herself a surprise, but she didn't expect such a big surprise.

"Mr. Li, can you really sell this wine to me?"

"Of course, I will also give you the method of brewing, Madam." As a fox who aspires to immortality, Li Cheng doesn't have much nostalgia for these traveler's tips to get rich.

"This......"

But Xiao Yumei hesitated.

She originally planned to hire Li Cheng to stay in the village to make wine, but Li Cheng actually handed over the secret method directly, which is not something that can be easily exchanged for money.

In this day and age, the general public is well aware of the reason why disciples of the church starve to death of their masters. Li Cheng's ignorant approach, in Xiao Yumei's opinion, is a bit too much dedication.

Coupled with Li Cheng's unusually handsome face, even if Xiao Yumei is almost forty this year, she will still blush and heartbeat after looking at it for a long time...

The superposition of the two phases made Xiao Yumei instinctively not want Li Cheng to suffer, so she said frankly:

"Mr. Li, to be honest, the value of your wine-making secret method cannot be measured by more than a dozen taels of silver. I can't cheat you... Otherwise, if you make a request, as long as it is within my power, I will do it." I can agree."

"Mrs. Xiao doesn't need to do this. I gave this method to Feiyunzhuang, and I don't need any reward."

Li Cheng glanced at Xiao Yumei, and then quietly glanced at Xiao Wan'er next to him.

Two people, two missions, this is the reason why he presented the secret recipe.

If the system judges that this is not a reward but a transaction because of the reward, and the task reward cannot be obtained, then it is a loss!

Li Cheng's persistence made Xiao Yumei even more at a loss as to how to respond.After repeatedly asking for rewards to no avail, she could only send Li Cheng and Zhu Chongxiu back as gifts.

When only her daughter was left by her side, Xiao Yumei became thoughtful.

Is there really such a selfless person in the world?There must be a selfless reason, right?

Just now, Mr. Li looked at him...

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

How could such a handsome young man like an old lady?
