"Who was that old man just now? Why did he walk into the recruiting hall like this? Could it be that this is some great Confucian, or a craftsman with special skills, but he looks very ordinary in his clothes, who the hell is it?"

"Judging from his footsteps and expression when he entered the recruiting hall, he is calm and confident, and he is definitely not a mediocre person. Now, who doesn't know that the recruiting hall's standards are very high, and ordinary scholars and talents can't easily seek a high position when they enter. , can only start from the most basic."

"This old man is not young. If he is really knowledgeable, he may really be a scholar-level talent. Once he passes the test, he can be entrusted with important tasks and obtain a high position in Xuanhuang City."

"It is said that a descendant of a political strategist entered the recruiting hall before, and as soon as he passed the test, he was entrusted with important tasks and was reused. Talented, no matter where he is, he can be reused."

Outside the recruiting hall, someone saw the old man striding into the recruiting hall, and started talking curiously.

After discussing this, it turned out that not many people really knew this old man. It seems a bit mysterious, either it was not the mountains or waters before, or it was the new residents who settled in Xuanhuang City recently.

It took only a short while for the old man to enter.

I saw that Huang Chengyan came out talking with the old man with a smile on his face, walking hand in hand, and the two sides talked very enthusiastically. Huang Chengyan couldn't help being unenthusiastic, it's because this old man's background is too great. So big that even he didn't dare to neglect in the slightest. Even more shocked than seeing Mao Sui.

Hearing that he wanted to go to the City Lord's Mansion and meet the City Lord, he immediately agreed without hesitation.

With Huang Chengyan's leadership, the journey was naturally unimpeded.

Yi Tianxing happened to be in the City Lord's Mansion.

It wasn't long before Ye Zhiqiu left.

Looking at Jiuquan, he and Cai Yan found a place and put the spring's eyes in place with their own hands. The spring is located in the city lord's mansion, which naturally forms a pool. In the pool, the springs naturally began to gather the vitality of heaven and earth, and the spring water burst out little by little, exuding a strange scent of wine, but this wine scent was imprisoned by an invisible force and completely bound within a certain area.

Let the aroma of the wine not completely dissipate.

As far as possible to ensure that the news of Jiuquan, always within a certain area.

"Old Huang brought another old man over,

Moreover, he came from the recruiting hall, it seems that we will add another great talent to Xuanhuang City. "Yi Tianxing looked at Jiuquan in front of him and said with a smile.

He is not a real top talent, Huang Chengyan's character is impossible to be brought in front of him so eagerly. Just like the previous Mao Sui, only such talents can receive unique treatment.

This is the treatment that comes with their abilities.

Others are not envious.

As long as you are talented, Yi Tianxing can also interview you as soon as possible.

Soon, Yi Tianxing saw Huang Chengyan and the old man in the pavilion in the backyard.

There is not much special about the old man's appearance, but there is one thing that is obvious, that is, his nose is rosacea, with a hint of red light, but it does not seem to be ordinary rosacea, the red light on it can hide No, once hidden, it is no different from a normal nose.

This is already a capability.

At this moment, the old man's nose turned dark red, and when he moved it slightly, the inaudible smell in the air that had long since disappeared was still clearly present in his perception.

"That's right, it's the smell of wine, that strange smell of wine. It really is here, here is the source, what is it, tell me what is that treasure of wine. As long as I can have it, I can Brew the most perfect Lingjiu Xianniang."

I only saw that the old man rushed to Yi Tianxing excitedly after smelling the residual smell in the air, grabbed his arm, and shouted loudly.

His expression looked abnormally excited, almost without saliva flying.

"You can smell the wine, you are the winemaker."

Yi Tianxing frowned slightly, the smell of wine in the air had disappeared for at least a quarter of an hour. Under such circumstances, normal monks can't smell it, at least he can't feel it, but this old man can sense it. Obviously, the nose is extraordinary. Coupled with his sensitivity to wine, he can already guess the meanings expressed in various words, and his identity is related to wine making.

"My lord, this person is the patriarch of wine, the legendary inventor of wine, Mr. Du Kangdu."

Huang Chengyan introduced.

"What, you are Du Kang."

This sentence made Yi Tianxing stunned on the spot, feeling unbelievable in his heart.

Who is Du Kang, as long as he is a person from Huaxia, there are not many people who don't know.

This is the legendary ancestor of wine making.

According to legend, in the time of the Yellow Emperor in ancient times, there was a man named Du Kang who was in charge of food management.

At that time, with the development of farming, there was a bumper harvest of grain every year. However, there is too much food to eat, so they can only be stored in caves, which are dark and humid. Over time, all the food rots. Seeing this, Du Kang began to think hard about ways to store grain.

On this day, Du Kang went for a walk in the woods and found several dead trees, leaving only thick and empty trunks. With an idea, Du Kang poured all the grain into the dry tree trunk. After a while, Du Kang came to the woods to check the grain. He was surprised to find that some wild boars, goats and rabbits were lying in disorder in front of the dead tree where the grain was stored, motionless as if they were dead. He quickly approached to see what happened: the trunk of the grain-storing tree had several cracks, and water seeped continuously from the inside to the outside. It seems that these animals fell down after licking the water.

But what kind of water is this? Du Kang leaned over to sniff it, and felt a fresh fragrance rushing towards his face. He couldn't help but tasted this strong perfume, and felt refreshed. Later, Du Kang brought the strong perfume home and invited everyone to taste it. Everyone said that it tasted good after you took a sip and I took a sip. In this way, wine gradually became popular among the people, and Du Kang was honored as the "God of Dionysus" by people.

This kind of unintentional action produces the unique wonderful product of wine.

Moreover, Du Kang was not satisfied with this.

Instead, he began to study hard. Whole grains can be used to make wine, and the taste is excellent. If you add various rare and exotic fruits, it will be a unique panacea. Is it possible to make the brewed wine more delicious, and even have unique effects. Take the taste to the next level.

So, under Du Kang's careful research, the accumulation of failures. Finally brewed a more magical wine. After drinking it, the taste is really wonderful, and it has the wonderful power to make people forget their sorrows.

This kind of wine is named after Du Kang himself, called Du Kang wine.

In particular, Dukang wine has had various legends in the history of China.

Dukang wine has the reputation of "tribute wine" and "immortal wine" in history.

It has formed an indissoluble bond with the poets and literati of the past dynasties. They often chant wine with poems and brew poems with wine.

Cao Cao, Emperor Wu of Wei, wrote a poem: "Genesis should be generous, and worries and thoughts will be unforgettable; how can you relieve worries? Only Du Kang."

The poet Du Fu said: "Du Kang frequently persuades, Zhang Li just asks."

The poet Su Shi left a drunken saying: "Now the treasure of Dongpo, there is no worship of Du Kang".

Ruan Tie, one of the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest", "does not enjoy being an official, but pays attention to Du Kang".

These deeds have allowed Dukang wine to reach its status and height in wine. In the world, there is no wine that can reach the height of Dukang wine. This is not a joke.

It was only later that the brewing recipe of Dukang wine was completely lost. Let Dukang wine gradually disappear in history.

Even if there is an occasional altar, it can be looted by people, and it is worth thousands of gold.

What appears now is not the recipe of Dukang wine, but the living Dukang, the legendary god of wine and wine fairy. At this point, how can Yi Tianxing not be shocked and feel stunned for a while.

"It turned out to be Mr. Du. Yi Tianxing has been looking forward to the Dukang wine you brewed for a long time. Unfortunately, Dukang wine is only known by name and cannot be tasted. I thought that it would be impossible to taste Dukang again in this life. Wine, now that Mr. Du is here, I will definitely be able to satisfy my wish."

Yi Tianxing had a strong look of joy on his face. said with a smile.

I feel that the old man in front of me is so pleasing to the eye.

"Du Kang is just a mere winemaker, and Dukang wine is just a bit of a false name. In the world, there are countless winemakers who are better than me. How dare Du be arrogant. The way to make wine, be careful. Only sincerity can brew The finest wines and wines."

When Du Kang heard it, he shook his head and said.

This is the way of sincerity. If you don't pay attention, how can you make the most perfect wine. That's just a luxury. There are only two words in his secret recipe for wine making, which is heart.

"Attentiveness is precisely the most difficult point. As long as you are willing to study any skill, you will eventually achieve something. However, it is also related to talent. Undoubtedly, you, Mr. Du, have this talent in wine."

Yi Tianxing made no secret of his admiration for Du Kang in his words.

No matter what, this Dukang is the top existence among winemakers. His talent is rare in the world. He has a relationship with wine.

"Before, I smelled a strange smell of wine on Ye Gongfeng's body. It was like wine but not wine, but it was naturally produced. Now I am in the city lord's mansion, and I smell this scent again. This is definitely the treasure of wine. I don't know Can the city lord tell me what kind of strange thing it is?"

Du Kang felt that his whole heart was itching, and he was sure that the strange thing in the wine was definitely in the city lord's mansion.

"Mr. Du, please follow me."

Yi Tianxing nodded and nodded. He didn't expect that the existence of Jiuquan could reveal the ancestor of the wine hidden in the city. Moreover, he chose to enter the recruiting hall without hesitation, just to see what the strange thing in the wine was.

Cai Yan was also surprised in his heart, and his eyes showed a strange light. It is impossible for her not to know the name of Du Kang. (Eternal Kingdom..6363989)--( Eternal Kingdom )
