Chapter 32 Star Luck Wine
General Sun's words shocked everyone in the palace.
"General Sun, is this news reliable?" His Highness asked slowly, his face turned red.
"Your Highness, this information was purchased from Tianji Pavilion in the Imperial Capital. You know that the information from Tianji Pavilion is naturally reliable." General Sun replied.
Snapped!
The Third Prince slapped the table, spilled the wine, and said angrily: "Damn it! These people dare to deceive the imperial court and pretend to receive military merit! This is intolerable!"
"Your Highness, calm down! Although the commander of the three armies pretended to take military merit and did not report all military information, this is understandable. It is said that this is exactly what Li Yun meant." General Sun said.
The Third Prince was startled and asked, "Li Yun asked them to do this?!"
"Judging from the content of the information, this is indeed the case."
"Oh...I am becoming more and more interested in this Li Yun! I wonder if there is any information about him?"
"Your Highness, the general is also very interested in him, so he purchased his information in Tianji Pavilion. Why don't you take a look for yourself." After speaking, General Sun stepped forward and handed over a book of information.
"good!"
The Third Highness took the leather book and read it carefully. He leaned slightly, his face became more and more shocked, and handed the leather book to the old men in black and red to read.
"Uncle Ye, what do you think?" His Highness asked the old man in black.
"It can be cultivated."
"Uncle Zhou, what do you think?" His Highness asked the old man in red again.
"Genius can be cultivated."
"Then... why not send him to Tianlong Academy first?" His Highness asked.
"Yes, throw him into the pile of geniuses and see what happens." Uncle Zhou in red nodded.
"Okay! I'll fix the book right away."
…
Li Yun sat upright like a clock, clasping a middle-grade mysterious stone with both hands. The mysterious energy washed through the muscles and bones in the body like spring water, and then entered the heart. With the beating of the heart, it entered the blood vessels of the whole body, washing away the impurities in the blood.
Under the purification of Xuan Qi, the blood becomes increasingly crystal clear, shimmering like the Milky Way.
After entering the third level of Xuan Ling realm, Li Yun felt that his body was like a bottomless pit, which needed to be constantly filled with Xuan stones. He needed to absorb middle-grade Xuan stones every day to feel any progress.
Soon, the two middle-grade black stones disappeared again. He clapped his hands and flicked away the dust. Li Yunchang took a long breath and opened his eyes.
The sun was rising outside the window, filling the room with sunlight.
"Master, look at the situation, it won't take long to enter the middle stage." Xiao Xing said happily.
"After practicing in seclusion for half a month, I finally allowed myself to calm down and feel the Xuan Ling realm. Fortunately, the Xuan Stone is sufficient, so this realm is not difficult for me."
"Of course. If it weren't for laying a solid foundation, I'm afraid you would be able to break through to the fourth level now. However, this doesn't mean much."
"Exactly, with so many mysterious skills at hand, for me, leapfrog combat is not a problem at all, so the more important thing is the foundation." Li Yun said with a smile.
"Master, speaking of mystical skills, Tingchao Academy still has a few earth-level mystical skills that we haven't acquired yet, so we need to speed up. In addition, we also need to learn those alchemy and weapon refining tasks as soon as possible. They will be very useful in the future. "
"Hehe, it seems there are quite a lot going on. I plan to start brewing wine today."
"Yes, this is a big deal. I have upgraded the brewing formula, and the brew will definitely be better than the ones in the original world." Xiaoxing said loudly.
"real?"
"It's more real than pearls! However, when it is brewed in the future, it will have to be named after us. It will be called 'Xingyun Wine'."
"Okay, it's up to you!"
While they were chatting happily, there was a sound of footsteps, and someone shouted: "Master Li!"
Li Yun stepped out and said respectfully: "Hello, Dean!"
"Didn't it disturb Young Master's Qing Xiu?" Yang Weizhong asked respectfully.
"No, Dean, you are so polite, it scared me." Li Yun said with a smile.
"That's right. What you did is a role model for the people of Chaocheng. Yang should respect you."
"Halo, I'm not used to you being like this, so let's just be the same as before."
"This... okay. I came here this time to tell you something. His Highness the Third Prince of the Tianlong Imperial Capital sent me a letter, asking me to recommend you to study at the Tianlong Academy of the Imperial Capital. The sooner the better."
"Tianlong Academy?"
"Not bad! Tianlong Academy is the best academy in the Tianlong Empire. It is very powerful and recruits the best geniuses in the country. Being able to study in Tianlong Academy is the dream of all the geniuses in the Tianlong Empire." Yang Weizhong said with envy.
"Not going."
Yang Weizhong was startled and asked: "Such a great opportunity, why doesn't Young Master go?!"
"Because...I want to make wine."
"Wine brewing?!"
"Exactly, I want to make 'Star Luck Wine'."
"Sir, you missed the opportunity to study at Tianlong Academy in order to brew this 'Star Luck Wine'. I think this is a bit outweighed by the gain." Yang Weizhong said quickly.
"Hehe! When you drink my 'star wine', you will definitely not say this."
"Then...what should I do with this invitation?"
"I'll keep it for now. When I want to go, I will naturally go." Li Yun said.
"Okay! I will write back and explain to His Highness the Third Prince. By the way, Young Master, do you need my help in brewing this 'Star Luck Wine'?"
"Yes, I was just going to find you."
"If you need it, it doesn't hurt to say it."
"Thank you, Dean! Please send someone to help me purchase all the ingredients on this list, preferably in double portions. I plan to brew more at one time."
"No problem! When do you want it?" Yang Weizhong asked after taking the material list.
"Within half a month. I have to go to other societies to learn things these days." Li Yun said.
"Okay, within half a month."
…
After seeing Yang Weizhong off, Li Yun first went to Tu Xiaoyou, the director of the Herbal Medicine Society, and under her arrangement, began to read relevant classics.
There are countless books on mystical herbs and mystical medicines. Each type of mystical grass or mystical medicine has different characteristics and effects. If you study it in depth, it can form a discipline. Therefore, the assessment is also relatively general.
It took Li Yun three days to read through all the classics collected here, and these were just a drop in the bucket of various medicinal herbs on Xuanling Continent.
It took another two days to pass all the assessments here, obtain a lot of credits, and reach the top level of heaven.
However, this had long been considered a certainty in Tingchao Academy, so it did not cause much of a sensation. This was exactly what Li Yun wanted to achieve, and it was always good to keep a low profile.
After completing his studies at the Herb Club, Li Yun gained a new understanding of herbs, and therefore became more interested and confident in brewing "Xingyun Wine".
"Master, these five days of study have helped me a lot. I decided to adjust the formula of 'Xingyun Wine' according to the characteristics of Xuanling Continent's medicinal herbs. I believe the effect will be better." Xiaoxing said.
"It makes sense. No matter how good the formula is, it must be adapted to local conditions and adjusted according to the new environment and raw materials. Otherwise, it will become a tangerine in the south and a tangerine in the north."
"Master said that very well."
"Don't flatter me. Also, good wine requires good tools. It's time to learn alchemy and weapon refining. If you learn these two subjects together, you will definitely gain benefits when you start making wine again."
Li Yun spent another five days each to learn all the contents of these two subjects in Tingchao Academy.
Speaking of which, the two subjects of alchemy and weapon refining are unfathomable and vast, and it is impossible to learn them so quickly. However, since the classics and practical exercises collected in Tingchao Academy are relatively superficial, they only allow Li Yun to have a basic understanding of this and get started.
Li Yun has learned all the basic mystical skills required in the two subjects. After condensing and upgrading, he has become the most skilled person in Tingchao City. If he wants to make progress, he may get a higher level place. went.
On this day, Li Yun looked at the materials bought by Yang Weizhong and piled them up in the yard, and said excitedly: "Okay! We can finally make wine!"
"Master, you have to condense those big tanks again, otherwise I'm afraid it won't work." Xiaoxing saw the problem at a glance.
"Not bad, just fine for me to try my hand at."
Li Yun came to a large vat that was as tall as a person, slowly raised his palms, and circled the vat with one palm on the left and one on the right, like a butterfly walking through a flower, condensing everything inside and out.
After sending out the palm, he was already a little out of breath.
After a while, the big vat suddenly turned red and emitted light, as if bathing in a hot furnace. It gradually shrank, and many impurities were forced out and fell to the ground.
After a while, the large tank shrank by a quarter.
"It's still not enough!"
Li Yun once again took action to condense. This time, the large tank shrank a bit, becoming one-third of its original size, making it appear much smaller.
"This is my limit. It seems my Xuan Gong still needs to be improved!"
"Master, it's not bad. It can be used temporarily." Xiaoxing praised.
"Hehe, there are still nineteen large tanks. It will take a lot of time. Let's recover first."
Li Yun immediately meditated and absorbed the mysterious stone.
After a day of hard work, all twenty vats were finally condensed.
"Hey! I've actually reached the middle stage of Xuan Ling Realm!" Li Yun felt it for a moment and found that he had unknowingly risen to a level after concentrating at a high intensity this day.
"Master, you can improve at any time. What you do today is equivalent to a breakthrough training. Although it is not intentional, the effect will only be better." Xiaoxing analyzed.
"It seems that refining elixirs or refining weapons is also a good practice method. It will take more time in the future." Li Yun nodded.
The piles of medicinal herbs and other mysterious objects in the yard take up a lot of space, but fortunately they have been placed according to species.
After cleaning the twenty large vats and arranging them in two rows, Li Yun picked out the materials, divided them into precise portions, and put them into the vats quickly and accurately.
The herbs flew into the vat one after another as if they had eyes.
It took a whole day to pick out the herbs and by night, it was finally done!
"First steam the herbs, then mix in the fermented brown rice, stir thoroughly, wait for the essence to come out, and then wait for the miracle of time."
Li Yun set up a fire rack under the large vat and began to steam the herbs. The aroma of the herbs wafted far away, attracting Yang Weizhong and Du Qingshu.
"Hey! I haven't seen this novel brewing method before. I wonder if the young master created it?" Du Qingshu sniffed the fragrance obsessively and asked in surprise.
"Hehe, of course, have you seen it elsewhere?"
