Chapter 124 Immortal Elixir Wine Recipe: A Dream of Yellow Millet!
Lin Zhennan finally agreed to Gu Qianbei's proposal and led the Fuwei Escort Agency to join the Number One Manor in the World.
As for whether Lin Pingzhi had practiced the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual, Gu Qianbei had no idea.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for changing the fate of Fuwei Escort Agency, shattering Lin Zhennan's fantasies of the martial arts world, and gaining the admiration of Lin Pingzhi. The martial arts spirit of the two has been combined into—Dream Awakening."
"He truly has the air of a martial arts hero; tonight's work was worthwhile."
Gu Qianbei looked satisfied.
However, the martial arts spirit of this "Awakening from a Dream" intrigued him.
The system's voice sounded again the next moment.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have triggered the Immortal Elixir Wine Recipe - A Dream of Yellow Millet."
Take the millet from ten thousand households, the water from a thousand households' vats, and the firewood from a hundred households, spend ten days, and ignite a wisp of awakening energy; then you can achieve the dream of millet!
Effects: After drinking this wine, the host can create their own dreams, either indulging in fleeting pleasure or, with a certain probability, achieving enlightenment. Alternatively, they may enter random dreams and experience life.
When someone drinks this wine, the host can create a dream for that person, help them gain enlightenment, or trap them in a dream.
(Note: If the other party's cultivation level far surpasses that of the host, the host cannot forcibly create a dream; the other party must not resist.)
When Gu Qianbei saw the new system notification, her eyes widened in disbelief.
"A dream of wealth and glory? A recipe for immortal wine? I never expected that a recipe of this caliber could be triggered! Manipulating dreams! This is simply divine power."
Before he became an immortal, Lü Zu was attached to worldly power and wealth. He was awakened by Zhongli Han's dream of the Yellow Millet, which led him to enlightenment and the path to immortality.
I never imagined I'd have similar methods now.
Gu Qianbei was immediately filled with anticipation for this pipe dream.
The brewing ingredients are not particularly expensive, but it does take some time.
"Looks like we'll have to beg for rice from every household, water from every thousand, and firewood from every hundred. Luckily, I have an apprentice now, which will make things easier."
Gu Qianbei smiled slightly.
While resting in the inn, Yang Guo suddenly sneezed, and had a bad feeling.
Gu Qianbei returned to the inn with the roast chicken.
"Master! You're finally back!"
Yang Guo's eyes lit up when he saw the roast chicken. He then ate it while pestering Gu Qianbei to tell him the story of the Fuwei Escort Agency.
"Master, what happened to the Fuwei Escort Agency in the end?"
Gu Qianbei affectionately patted Yang Guo's head, and then began to tell the story of the Fuwei Escort Agency.
Many people are destined to be unable to sleep that night.
Early the next morning.
Gu Qianbei then took Yang Guo and left Fucheng.
As for the Fuwei Escort Agency, once his letter reaches the Number One Manor in the World, Haitang will send someone to the Fuwei Escort Agency to handle the follow-up matters.
a few days later.
The battle between Fuwei Escort Agency and Qingcheng Sect became famous throughout the martial arts world.
"Have you heard? Yu Canghai led Qingcheng Sect disciples to cause trouble for Fuwei Escort Agency, and in the end, he lost his life at Fuwei Escort Agency."
"Your information is wrong. It was Yu Canghai's son who was killed. He went to seek revenge and then died at the Fuwei Escort Agency."
"He still died at the Fuwei Escort Agency. Was it Lin Zhennan who did it? Is the Evil-Slaying Sword Manual that powerful?"
"You're wrong again. The person who did it is called Gu Qianbei. He's supposedly a winemaker, but he's very skilled in martial arts."
"Gu Qianbei? Never heard of him. Who is he?"
"The world's number one brewer, acknowledged by the world's number one brewery. Haven't you read the latest issue of the Jianghu Monthly Report? His name is on it."
Zhang Jinjiu, Lu Xiaofeng, and Sikong Zhaixing all acknowledged that his wine was excellent.
"I see!"
In no time, true and false news spread throughout the martial arts world, becoming a topic of conversation among martial arts practitioners.
In the Tongfu Inn in Qixia Town, Bai Zhantang read aloud the Jianghu Monthly Report, which everyone listened to with great interest.
"Tsk tsk, Manager Gu is really something now. Even the head of the Qingcheng Sect is no match for him."
Guo Furong felt both admiration and envy.
When will she have that ability?
"Our Qixia Town has produced a big shot."
Tong Xiangyu smiled.
Meanwhile, somewhere in Daliang.
Wanwan looked at the Jianghu Monthly Report in front of her, a smile playing on her lips. She then carefully folded it and put it into her bosom.
She shook the gourd in her hand and looked into the distance.
"I really do miss you."
Gu Qianbei knew nothing about any of this.
At this time, he had brought Yang Guo to the vicinity of Xiangyang City.
Along the way, he led Yang Guo into every house they encountered, asking the homeowners for millet, firewood, and water.
Although he paid the money, two or three out of ten people had no surplus grain.
The people of this world are living a very frugal life.
Gu Qianbei could only sigh at this.
That's how feudal society was; the day when everyone could have enough to eat was only once in five thousand years.
"Master, we've already obtained over seven thousand grains of millet. How much more do you need?"
Yang Guo, carrying a bag of rice, looked on with curiosity.
As for the water and firewood, Gu Qianbei had already put them into the Cangguang Gourd when Yang Guo wasn't paying attention.
Otherwise, these things would be difficult to hold in your hands.
"We're short of just over two thousand grains of millet for every ten thousand households. It'll be ready soon."
"Wan family? Master, the wine you're brewing is truly special. Even if you need millet, you don't need to ask Wan family for it, do you?"
"You don't understand. This dream of millet isn't about millet grains; it's about the warmth and life of countless homes. Where can you find ten thousand grains of millet that you can buy?"
"I really don't understand. Master, what you're saying is too mystical. It sounds like you're talking to a Taoist priest."
Oh right, isn't the Golden Light Mantra a Taoist practice?
Master, you're actually a Taoist priest, aren't you?
Gu Qianbei gently tapped Yang Guo's head.
"Ouch, Master, why did you hit me?"
Yang Guo rubbed his forehead, looking completely puzzled.
"You little rascal, you ask too many questions."
It's just asking you to go beg for rice, why are you so impatient?
Is it because you're afraid of being looked down upon? Or do you feel that this kind of thing is embarrassing?
"No, it's just that sometimes when I see families so poor they can't even afford a single grain of rice, it breaks my heart."
This reminds me of the times I used to spend with my mother.
Because my mother was bedridden for a long time, we often went without rice to cook.
As Yang Guo said this, his right hand clenched slightly.
That memory was both beautiful and tragic for him.
The joy lies in being with my mother, the sorrow lies in not having enough to eat, and the constant worry that my mother will die.
Seeing this, Gu Qianbei gently patted Yang Guo's head.
"It's all over now. With your master here, you won't go hungry."
"Um!"
Yang Guo nodded emphatically, and when he looked up again, his face was full of smiles.
This kid knows how to adjust his emotions quickly.
"Alright, let's continue. Our goal today is to find the Bodhi Serpent."
It was a strange snake with fleshy horns on its head and moved like the wind.
If we can find it, I will be able to brew a wine that enhances strength and increases internal energy.
Although you still can't drink it, soaking your body in this wine will be enough to transform you completely.
So, work hard, young man.
Yang Guo's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded emphatically again.
"Yes, Master!"
