Chapter 320 Monkey Wine
Chapter 320 Monkey Wine
"Master, we don't have any tools here, how are we going to brew wine?"
"Should we take all these peaches back with us?"
The picked peaches had piled up into a small mountain. Yang Guo wiped his sweat and asked a question.
"That's not necessary. If we don't have tools, we can create them."
Wine wasn't originally made using tools.
We will wash the peaches clean, remove the raw water, and then place them in the hollow tree hole.
In this way, the peaches will break open when they are piled up and squeezed. The peels contain wild yeast, and the tree hole is sealed off from light, has a constant temperature, and is an anaerobic environment, so the sugar in the wild fruit will naturally ferment into wine.
Of course, there are many details to pay attention to.
The monkey wine I just mentioned is brewed by monkeys in this way.
"I see! Master, from what you're saying, it takes some time to brew this wine."
Will we be staying here for the rest of the time?
"Of course, we can't stay here forever; we still need to see the excitement of the Ming Cult."
Let's finish our preliminary work first, then we can go out and see what's going on.
"Yes, Master."
Yang Guo nodded repeatedly.
"Alright, let's start brewing."
"Um."
The master and apprentice set to work again.
Soon, they stuffed the peach into a natural tree hole.
With a few more tricks, Gu Qianbei could guarantee the wine's 100% success, unlike Monkey Wine which depends on luck.
"Done."
By the time we finished doing all that, it was already getting dark.
"Master, should we stay here? I think the monkeys haven't completely dispersed yet."
"If we leave, won't these monkeys steal our drinks?"
Yang Guo said worriedly.
"This is indeed a problem. If we don't tame the monkeys here, we may not be able to leave before the wine is brewed."
Since that's the case, then we'll just have to teach them a lesson.
Gu Qianbei felt somewhat helpless.
Don't these monkeys get along well with Zhang Wuji?
Why are they so ungrateful when it comes to me?
I had to force myself to do it.
Just then, the monkey leader came over again, this time with a white ape.
"Master, that monkey is here again! It seems he's brought helpers with him."
Yang Guo immediately became wary.
Gu Qianbei's gaze swept over the white ape, and he immediately understood that this white ape must be the unlucky fellow whose belly was sewn with the Nine Yang Manual.
It was only through Zhang Wuji's treatment that it was given a new lease on life.
Otherwise, he would probably be dead by now.
Unlike the monkey leader's lack of manners, the white ape was clearly wary of Gu Qianbei, and upon approaching, it even bowed slightly, appearing quite human-like.
"Master, this white ape seems to be trying to be friendly with us."
Yang Guo asked in surprise.
"I see. It seems this white ape can communicate."
Gu Qianbei smiled slightly.
It's good that we can communicate. He really doesn't want to bully these monkeys; it would be embarrassing if word got out.
The white ape pointed to the Cangguang gourd at Gu Qianbei's waist, then pointed to the distance and made a drinking gesture.
"You mean we have to come with you? Are you offering something in exchange for the wine?"
Gu Qianbei guessed.
The white ape nodded repeatedly, indicating that it was correct.
"I can trade you the wine, but I cannot give you this gourd."
Gu Qianbei stated his conditions.
The white ape nodded in agreement.
"Let's go then."
"Master, aren't you afraid they'll harm you?"
Yang Guo said worriedly.
"What's there to be afraid of? If they really want to attack, I'm not one to show mercy; I can send them straight to hell."
"Hehe, that's true."
Yang Guo almost forgot that his master only appeared kind on the surface, but if he was really angered, he would kill without saying a word.
Led by the white ape, the two arrived at a graveyard.
"There are graves here?"
Yang Guo asked in surprise.
"Look carefully, this isn't for burying people."
Gu Qianbei pointed to the tombstone and said.
Upon hearing this, Yang Guo looked over and saw that it read "The place where Zhang Wuji buried the scriptures".
"Buried scriptures? What scriptures? Zhang Wuji? Isn't that Zhang Cuishan's son? He's been missing for many years."
Yang Guo asked in surprise.
"We'll find out once we dig it open. This should be what the white ape wants to trade to us."
It's quite good at doing favors when it comes to them.
Gu Qianbei laughed.
He naturally knew that the Nine Yang Manual was buried inside.
Judging from the state of the soil, it hasn't been buried for long, and now the master and apprentice have dug it up.
How can this not be considered a kind of fate?
However, when Zhang Wuji learned that he was coming to this secret realm, he probably already knew that he would find this place.
But he still told me the exact location of the valley, which shows that he was truly magnanimous.
Under Gu Qianbei's command, Yang Guo dug up the grave and took out the Nine Yang Manual.
"Nine Yang Manual? Master, isn't this the Nine Yang Divine Skill you mentioned? How come it's here?"
It looks like it was only recently buried.
Could the Zeng Aniu we met be Zhang Wuji?
Yang Guo was also a smart man. Connecting all the clues, he quickly came to this conclusion.
"Judging from the current situation, that is indeed the case."
The Nine Yang Divine Skill is a pretty good internal energy cultivation method; we can all take a look at it.
Although you already have the Golden Light Mantra as a foundation, there's nothing wrong with learning the Nine Yang Divine Skill as well.
This martial art is a treasure. Once you learn it, all other martial arts in the world will become much easier to learn.
"Is there really such a good thing?"
Yang Guo was astonished, and looked at the manual in his hand with even greater delight.
Seeing the two men's happy expressions, the white ape knew that his deal was secure.
He immediately reached out to Gu Qianbei, asking for drinks.
"You're quite impatient. Find me a container, and I'll pour it out for you."
The white ape scratched its head, then seemed to remember something and gestured for Gu Qianbei to follow it.
Gu Qianbei and Yang Guo immediately followed.
Before long, led by the white ape, the two arrived at a waterfall, where a cave was hidden among the trees.
"Goodness, I almost thought it was a Water Curtain Cave."
Seeing this, Gu Qianbei couldn't help but complain.
Led by the white ape, the two arrived at the cave.
The space inside the cave is very large, and sunlight even shines in from the top.
It's called a cave, but it's more like a canyon.
Many monkeys live there.
What attracted people the most was a stone pit in the middle area, from which a faint smell of alcohol, or rather, fruit, wafted.
"This is... monkey wine?"
Gu Qianbei was overjoyed to see this, never expecting to find monkey wine here.
No wonder these monkeys love drinking so much; they're brewing their own alcohol.
After drinking too much monkey wine, I naturally wanted to try something different.
The white ape took out a bucket and placed it in front of Gu Qian's cup of noodles, indicating that he should pour the wine into it.
"Wow, these monkeys can even make buckets?"
Yang Guo asked in surprise.
