Chapter 1144: 1144

Chapter 1144 Heaven Dew!

Three days later, Fang Qiu went back to the school dormitory.

“It’s almost time.”

Fang Qiu, heavily disguised from top to toe, left the school and walked toward the forest located on the high mountain outside the city, carrying a bucket of wine with the herbs steeped within.

When He Gaoming and the others came back three days ago, Fang Qiu took his brothers to the forest outside the city and guided them to stabilize their realms.

This forest was in an isolated region with little human traffic all year round, so they could cultivate there with peace of mind.

With Fang Qiu’s guidance, everyone steadied their realms rapidly.

In only three days, everyone had utterly stabilized their current realms. During this period, Fang Qiu practiced with each of them several times. He continued to guide their cultivation even after ensuring all their realms were stable.

The Qi of Heaven and Earth nearby was not rich enough, and everyone managed to break through just once. Although their realms were completely stable, the improvement in their cultivation was much slower than they expected.

While instructing them, Fang Qiu paid close attention to the time. Three days passed. When the herbs had been thoroughly soaked in the wine and infused the wine with their essences, he asked everyone to wait and left to get the wine.

The longer the wine was soaked with the herbs, the more fragrant it would be. Especially for medicated wine, the longer the herbs remained in the wine, the more effective the components would become due to the prolonged soaking, and hence the medicinal value of the medical liquor would be higher.

Fang Qiu was fully aware of this fact.

…

However, since the medicated wine was still at the experimental stage, Fang Qiu couldn’t wait for a few years or a few months. He could only wait for three days and would try it as soon as the herbs’ active constituents started dissolving in the wine.

If it was technically possible, he would like to take his time to produce the aged wine in the future.

The bucket held 10 kilograms of wine.

The wine was neither too much nor too little for them.

There were more than 30 brothers, and each of them could get six taels of wine, which was a little more than half a pound.

Fang Qiu went back to the mountain.

In the distance, he saw his brothers waiting eagerly.

Although Fang Qiu was also very curious about how it tasted, he didn’t try to sample it in advance.

He zoomed ahead to his brothers.

“Master, is this the wine you made?”

“I can hardly wait.”

“This wine looks no different from the ordinary ones. They are all in white buckets. The only difference is that there are quite a few medicinal herbs inside.”

“The oldest, open and smell it. Does it smell good?”

“For a long time, we’ve been too poor to drink any wine! I’m already salivating when I see it.”

Everyone gathered around Fang Qiu.

“Trust me. I promise that it will be good.”

“Ha-ha.” Fang Qiu laughed and said, “The wine is from Jiangjing, the most genuine local brew which has the best quality and flavor. In addition to that, I added the herbs in varying proportions. Although they were only soaked in the wine for three days, some of their components must be effective already.”

After that, Fang Qiu opened the lid of the wine bucket under their expectant gazes.

As soon as the bucket was opened, the tantalizing aroma of fresh medical liquor wafted toward them. It seemed that they could get intoxicated merely from the strong fragrance of the wine.

“Good wine.”

Their senses were stirred by the mere smell of the wine.

Fang Qiu also smelled it.

The wine obviously smelled much better than when he first bought it. Besides, the wine fumes permeating the air were much richer than before.

“Hey, guys, paper cups!”

Unable to resist the temptation of the wine any longer, He Gaoming immediately ran aside, fetched a backpack, and ran back quickly. Then he took out a new pack of paper cups from his backpack and gave each of his brothers a cup.

“Oh, you’re so well prepared!”

Seeing that He Gaoming actually brought so many cups with him, Fang Qiu was astounded.

“Er, I bought the cups just now.”

He Gaoming grinned and said, “You said you would be getting the wine. Well, I thought we needed something to drink the wine from, so I bought some paper cups.”

“Good.”

Fang Qiu nodded and said, “Today is the day of wine tasting, and also the first time that I, John Doe, am drinking with you. I propose a toast to everyone.”

At the end of his speech, he waved his hand at the wine bucket which was uncovered.

The wine immediately spilled out of the bucket.

Everyone was shocked.

They didn’t know what was wrong with John Doe. Why would he suddenly spill the wine?

But something unexpected happened the next moment.

The wine which flowed out, instead of falling to the ground, was divided equally into more than 30 parts, which flew separately into each brother’s paper cup.

The wine filled half of the cup, which was exactly two taels of wine for each of them!

Fang Qiu controlled the amount of wine running into each cup meticulously.

“Brothers, a toast to all of you!”

Fang Qiu poured the same amount of wine into his cup, then raised his head and drank the half cup of wine in one gulp.

Seeing this, the others also raised their cups, made a toast, and drank it all in one gulp.

After downing it in one draught, everyone clicked their tongues approvingly.

“Good wine.”

“It smells so good.”

“There really is the Qi of Heaven and Earth in the wine.”

“Bravo! This is the best wine I’ve ever drunk.”

Everyone exclaimed.

“As the saying goes, in a feast, the wine should go round three times and the dishes should go through the five flavors.”

Fang Qiu picked up the wine bucket and poured wine for his brothers, one by one. Meanwhile, he said, “There are no dishes today, so let’s finish the three cups of wine first.”

Once again, each of them got two taels of wine.

The wine bucket was already two-thirds empty.

Together, they raised their cups and drained the wine.

The second cup was silky smooth. After the wine entered their stomachs, they felt a ball of fire burning their Dantian, which numbed their senses and made them feel sleepy!

“Master.”

He Gaoming spoke up, his cheeks flushing scarlet due to the wine. “This wine is delicious, but it’s too strong. Usually, I can drink one and a half kilograms of liquor at a time, but why do I feel a little dizzy after drinking only four taels of this wine?”

The other brothers nodded in unison.

Absolutely!

Everyone in Wulin loved drinking wine.

However, Fang Qiu’s wine had a strong delaying effect.

Fang Qiu didn’t feel drunk at all, but from their dazed expressions, he could tell that the wine worked within them and worked very well too.

“The third round of wine, let us all propose a toast to you.”

He Gaoming took the wine bucket from Fang Qiu and filled his cup. Then, he shared the rest equally among the other brothers.

“A full cup to our most respected brother!”

Fang Qiu looked at his cup filled with wine, and then at their cups with less than one-third of wine. He said, “You don’t really need to do that. Since we’re brothers, we are equal. I’d like to share this cup with every one of you!”

With this, he gently waved his hand.

Some of the wine in his paper cup, wrapped in a shell of internal Qi, immediately flew out. It was then evenly divided into more than 30 portions, falling into each brother’s cup.

With the extra portions, the wine in their cups didn’t change a lot, but Fang Qiu’s wine was much less, which looked exactly the same as everyone’s.

All his brothers were deeply moved when they saw this.

His action touched their hearts!

The oldest was willing to avenge his brother and share his wine equally with his brothers. Such a good leader was rare in this world.

Although everyone was clear that they couldn’t be equal in all aspects, they were touched by the warmth of John Doe’s concern for them.

They finished the third cup of wine.

They couldn’t hold on any longer.

“The wine has a real kick. I can’t stand it.”

“The blood in my body is boiling.”

“So hot.”

All of them were talking at once.

“Its strong delayed effect is kicking in.”

Fang Qiu smiled and said, “Everyone, sit down and move your Qi to digest it.”

His words were a reminder for them.

Everyone immediately sat cross-legged on the ground.

All of them quickly began running their Qi to assimilate the medical liquor inside them.

In the process of digestion, they found to their surprise that the wine with the infusion of medicines also contained a lot of Qi of Heaven and Earth, which seemed to have already merged with the wine.

As they digested the herbal liquor, they found that their strength rose slowly and automatically even without cultivation.

The speed at which it rose was even faster than when they cultivated it on their own.

This effect was a pleasant surprise for everyone.

After they finished digesting all the medicated wine, they all reached the peak of their own realm.

Even Fang Qiu felt that his strength and realm had become more stable after absorbing the wine in his belly.

“This effect seems to have exceeded my expectations.”

Fang Qiu completed the digestion first and began to ponder over the whole process. The surprisingly good effect of this medical liquor was the combined results of the Qi of Heaven and Earth and the infusion of herbs. The three kinds of herbs had been nourished by the Qi of Heaven and Earth, so each of them contained an extraordinary property of medicine. In addition, after the wine assimilated their effective components, the three kinds of medicinal properties merged, which greatly enhanced the effect of this wine!

This effect came as a surprise to Fang Qiu.

After a while, the others came to their senses one by one as they emerged from their cultivation.

As soon as they woke up, they all turned their heads and looked at Fang Qiu in shock.

This wine was fantastically great.

It was truly an elixir for martial arts practitioners!

“How much do you think this wine will go for?”

Seeing everyone’s shocked eyes, Fang Qiu asked with a smile.

“Sell it?”

“Not for sale!”

“How can we sell this wine?”

“Yeah, we can’t bear to sell such a good wine.”

Everyone shook their heads.

“Well, I think,” He Gaoming said, “I won’t exchange it even for gold!”

“Yes, it’s priceless.”

“Don’t sell it. Even if we have to live a humble life, so what? Anyway, just don’t sell it.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

“Five thousand yuan for one jar, and half a kilogram of wine in one jar,” Fang Qiu said.

Everyone was startled.

In fact, they also knew that this wine could be made at any time, and it could achieve such a good effect after only three days of brewing. As long as they could get the wine and the herbs, they could produce as much of this kind of wine as they wanted. Therefore, it was impossible not to sell it.

Nevertheless, the price was crucial.

“I think it’s a bit cheap.”

“Right. 5,000 yuan for half a kilogram of such fine wine is too low a price.”

Everyone shook their heads.

“Let’s set the price at 5,000 yuan per jar. It’s not a small sum of money.”

Fang Qiu thought about it and said, “Now, the most important thing is to name the wine. Let’s discuss it first. Do you have any good ideas?”

“Immortal wine!”

One of them said immediately.

“Phew, how about Divine Wine?”

Another person joked.

“Why don’t we just call it Beautiful Wine?”

Li Boqing suggested.

Hearing the names suggested by everyone, Fang Qiu couldn’t help but smile wryly.

“Seriously? Where did they get the idea for all these names?”

“The oldest, you developed and made this wine, so you must have thought of a name in advance, haven’t you?”

One of them asked.

When everyone heard this, they thought to themselves, “Sure enough! The oldest, John Doe, hasn’t expressed his opinion yet. What’s the point of us arguing here?”

“I did think of a name.”

Fang Qiu nodded and said, “Heaven Dew!”

All of a sudden, they were all stunned.

“Why didn’t I think of such a nice name?”

The wine should be only possessed by the Celestials. Shouldn’t the top-quality liquid we could get from the sky be called Heaven Dew?
