Chapter 14: The Mysterious Old Man

Liangchen realized that this monkey was attracted by the smell of spirits.

Seeing the silver monkey's face flushed and swaying from side to side, he couldn't help but feel funny.

He was about to get closer, but the monkey barked at him as if provoked.

Liangchen had no choice but to retreat and look at it with a smile on his face.

Suddenly, there was a "squeak——!squeak" and "squeak——!" sounds, which sounded from all directions.

The monkey next to the vat also squeaked!

Liangchen felt that the voices from all directions were getting closer and closer, and hurriedly leaned his back against a big tree and drew his sword.

The sound of rustling around, the clashing of leaves and branches, mixed with the sound of "squeak——!" is getting louder and louder!

Then I saw the silver monkeys jump out of the mist and gather around the big vat.

When he looked closely, there were more than 20 of them!

A group of monkeys stared at the monkey who arrived first, heard it bark a few times, and began to scoop the wine in the jar with their hands and drink.

Some of the monkeys may not be able to stand the pungency of the liquor and scream.

Some of them took a few sips, not knowing whether they were excited or overwhelmed by the strength of the wine, and they also screamed.

For a while, the squeak was endless!

"Two or three, I can barely handle it, so many, but it's a little tricky!" Liangchen stared at the monkeys defensively, while secretly thinking in his heart.

But the monkeys seemed to be so attracted by the wine in the jar that they treated him as if they were air, and didn't even look at him.

Something that made Liangchen feel even more funny appeared!

The monkeys couldn't stand the intensity of such a violent drink, they seemed to be drunk, their faces were red, their mouths were screaming, and they were holding the three layers of wine in their hands and the outer three layers of wine jars and spun around, as if they were singing and dancing!

This scene made him laugh out loud.

The group of drunken monkeys sang and jumped around for a cup of tea, and then began to gather together to "squeak!" and exchange something.

In the end, it seemed agreed that two of the stronger monkeys were carrying the jars and preparing to carry the rest of the wine away.

"This tank is tailor-made, and I've been with myself for two years, even if I drink, I can't carry the tank away!"

But apparently this move angered the monkeys, and four or five adult silver snub-nosed monkeys rushed out of the group to block the way.

"It seems that it can't be snatched back. Forget it!" he looked at the posture and had no choice but to give up.

He put away his sword and took two steps back, sending a friendly signal to them.

The monkeys seemed to be very human, and when they saw him retreating, they also turned around and chased after the monkeys.

Watching the monkeys move away, Liangchen seemed to have grasped something in his mind, but he didn't know what it was.

But just now when he saw a few monkeys turning away, his mind suddenly flashed, "Follow them!"

"Yes, follow this group of monkeys, you should be able to find a way out!" Liangchen almost shouted excitedly, and then immediately ran in the direction of the monkeys.

The fog was so thick that I almost lost it a few times, but fortunately, a group of monkeys were drunk and smoky, and they were carrying a wine tank, and they didn't run very fast.

Liangchen didn't dare to get too close, so he could only follow from afar.

But the smell of wine emanating from the monkey and in the vat has always guided him in the direction of his progress!

You know, he has been making wine every day in the past few years, tasting wine all the time, and he knows the aroma of this wine well, so even if there is a trace of breath left in the air, it is enough for him!

In this way, after following the monkeys left and right for more than an hour, the monkeys finally stopped at a mountain stream!

The fog here is much lighter, and a waterfall is faintly visible, and the waterfall is about 100 zhang high.

Liangchen watched as the monkeys climbed up along the steep rocks beside the waterfall, pulling all kinds of vines and plants, and when they reached the top, the monkeys suddenly jumped towards the waterfall, as if committing suicide, but did not fall down.

Because it was too far away and there was fog, Liangchen couldn't see it really, and he thought that there should be a cave hidden behind the waterfall.

The monkeys squeaked for a moment, and then one by one they jumped into the cave.

Liangchen looked around, there were strange flowers and fruits everywhere, most of them had never been seen before, and there were dozens of ripe kiwiberries on a few big trees!

You must know that it is good luck to be able to pick two or three a day outside, but now seeing so many kiwiberries, Liangchen can't help but feel excited.

"If this is all picked, it will save a few months of effort!"

After looking around for a moment and making sure there was no danger, he climbed a tree and began picking kiwiberries.

For each piece, spread the juice evenly with the snake fruit and place it in a storage bag.

In this way, after a while, more than a dozen were picked, and if you go on like this, you can go back directly after picking these trees!

He was secretly rejoicing, when suddenly a loud voice came into his ears,

"Where did the thief come from? Don't you know that when you take someone else's things, you need to ask the master first?!"

The shock hurt his eardrums, and his brain boomed, and he almost fell off the tree.

Liangchen stopped his movements and looked up.

A thin old man with his hair in a bun, dressed in a cloth shirt, and a red face stood under the tree at some point.

Beside him was a group of monkeys, including a monkey that was twice as big as the other monkeys!

"Golden snub-nosed monkey!" should be the monkey king of this group of monkeys.

But these monkeys, squatting beside the old man, were all docile and well-behaved, and they had completely lost the naughty appearance of the noisy and noisy just now.

Liangchen hurriedly jumped down from the tree and saluted.

"Don't blame the seniors, the juniors strayed into this wood, and the monkeys snatched the wine tank, and followed all the way here.

Finding these many fruits, the younger generation thought that they were ownerless, so they couldn't help but collect some and use them to make the tiger bone fungus king wine. ”

Liangchen looked at the old man and said slightly apologetically.

It seems that the group of monkeys should be raised by this old man, and he first said that the monkey snatched the wine tank, and then said that he needed this fruit to make up for the loss, and he would not blame himself!

"Oh?! It turns out that this wine is called Tiger Bone Mushroom King Wine. You said that this wine was made by you?" Hearing what he said, the old man in Tsing Yi softened his face a little, and asked with a little surprise.

"It's the juniors. Because I need this kiwiberry for sake brewing, I took the liberty to pick it, and I ask my seniors to forgive me!" replied Yoshichen.

"So blame me, the monkeys, who stole your wine first. The old man said with a smile on his face.

"But the wine you brew has a different flavor, spicy and violent, which is more in line with the old man's taste. The old man casually took out a wine vat, which was the same one that had been snatched away by the monkeys just now.

There is only half of the liquor used for forging the body in the jar, and it seems that the old man has not drunk less!
