"Brother Lu Ye, you should know Qianhua Shiqiong, right?"

After pouring out the last drop of sake in the jade flask, Yun Xiao raised his head and whispered to Lu Ye, who was still sluggish, and then handed the jade bowl back to Lu Ye's hand.

"Brother Yunxiao, this... this can't happen!"

Holding the jade bowl that Yun Xiao had forced into his hand, Lu Ye finally came to his senses with a jolt, and then shook his head like a rattle, refusing to accept anything he said.

Lu Ye is not a villain like Yu Xu. Although he looks short and shrewd, he acts openly and aboveboard. Although he picked up the stone, except for the action of picking up the stone, other things seem to be the same as those of Yu Xu.

He doesn't have the slightest connection.

Whether he recognized that the stone was Thousand Flower Stone Qiong, or used sake to make the wine appear, Lu Ye's eyes darkened. If he had to accept that he found the Thousand Flower Stone Qiong by himself, then he would have to accept it no matter what.

ashamed.

"Does Brother Lu Ye think I can't find another kind of wine?"

Yun Xiao made up his mind and naturally would not reach out to take the jade bowl handed back by Lu Ye. Such words of confidence also made many people think deeply.

Previously, because of Yun Xiao's age, no one thought that this young man would be a strong competitor for them. They thought that he was just a young boy who entered Zuixian Restaurant by accident. How many kinds of wine can he recognize?

But now, when Yun Xiao showed his skill and found Qianhua Shiqiong, almost most people no longer held that view. Some even showed hostility and regarded this rough-clothed young man as a

The archenemy of this Drunken Immortal Conference.

"Of course, if Brother Lu Ye can't even explain the composition and origin of Thousand Flower Stone Qiong, then there's nothing I can do about it!"

Seeing that Lu Ye wanted to talk again, Yun Xiao was a little impatient. These two sentences contained a hint of excitement, which made the former's face turn red, as if he was very unconvinced.

"Thousand Flower Stone Qiong" is made by winemakers who collect a thousand kinds of flowers in early spring and then refine it into juice. After three months of storage in a secret room, it condenses into stone and is then smelted using a special method.

liquor!"

As if to show his knowledge of wine, Lu Ye did not refuse this time. Listening to his eloquent talk, even Yun Xiao couldn't help but nod slowly.

What Lu Ye is talking about at this moment is indeed the brewing method of Qianhua Stone Qiong. This method is slightly different from ordinary wine brewing. Even for some ordinary wine drinkers, even if the stone is placed in front of them, they may not be able to brew it.

Discover.

In fact, let alone those ordinary drunkards, didn't the famous wine masters in Zuixian City in front of them not discover the specialness of the stone?

It can also be seen from this that wine like Qianhua Shiqiong is really rare but cannot be found, and only places like Zuixian Restaurant can use it as part of the competition.

It seemed that Lu Ye just couldn't recognize the stone shape of Qianhua Shiqiong. Once someone reminded him, the brewing method of Qianhua Shiqiong that he had remembered in his mind came out, and he was absolutely correct.

Of course, shopkeeper Zhou did not force Lu Ye to name all the thousands of spring flowers at this moment. That would be a bit difficult, not to mention that some of the flowers can be changed at will.

"Qionghua Shiqiong, accurate!"

Even though he knew that Qianhua Shiqiong was discovered and triggered by Yun Xiao, Shopkeeper Zhou did not dwell on the matter at this time. Or maybe he had some other purpose and simply skipped it all and announced that Lu Ye's identification was successful.

Pass this first round of competition.

"This guy Lu Ye is very lucky!"

Compared to the other drunkards who were just watching with strange feelings, as Lu Ye's old rival, Yu Xu's mood was not so wonderful. He could hear him speaking in a low voice, which contained deep jealousy.

"This kid is quite interesting!"

On the other hand, Ma Nanfeng, who was not very fond of Yun Xiao before, now actually had a smile on his face. He didn't know what he was thinking. It seemed that even the anger deep in his heart had subsided a bit.

However, it was still the first round of the Drunken Immortal Conference. Although Yun Xiao's performance just now was amazing, it had little to do with the others. If they couldn't find a good wine, they would be eliminated.

"Aha, here it is!"

Just as everyone was looking for the wine, a cheering sound suddenly came out, attracting everyone's attention again. At this glance, they saw that the person who cheered was Yu Xu, who had a problem with Lu Ye.

At this moment, Yu Xu was holding a huge river clam in his hand, and it seemed to have just been fished out of the water. It was still dripping with water droplets, which reflected Yu Xu's excited face.

Somewhat weird.

Seeing everyone's gazes on him, Yu Xu felt a little proud, and then he saw him using both hands to break open the river mussel from the middle, revealing some pink mussel meat inside.

The moment Yu Xu opened the clam body, his other hand had already taken out a jade bowl, and then the clam juice dripping from it dropped accurately into the jade bowl.

.

Tick-tock! Tick-tock! Tick-tock!

Within a moment, a small bowl of amber-colored nectar was gathered in the jade bowl. Waves of wine aroma wafted out from the bowl, making some knowledgeable people realize what kind of fine wine it was.

"Benghuai Brewing uses ten-year-old clams as the brewing place, supplemented by..."

Yu Xu talked eloquently, and these words convinced everyone who had just guessed that it was indeed a rare wine. Although it was not as good as Qianhua Shiqiong, Yu Xu could find it if he could find it.

It's a skill.

"Accurate, passed!"

Shopkeeper Zhou listened attentively and saw that what Yu Xu said was correct, so he naturally approved it step by step. However, when he just finished speaking, he saw Yu Xu wave his hand towards him.

"Actually, I can find that this clam brewing product was guided by Master Suo Si, so it should be Master Suo Si who passed it this time!"

I have to say that Yu Xu is indeed a master of flattery. After these words were spoken, many people showed a strange expression, secretly saying that this guy's face is really not that thick.

Previously, Yu Xu had flattered Ma Nanfeng outside. If Yun Xiao hadn't entered the inner garden first, Master Suo Si would undoubtedly be in a very good mood.

It seems that Yu Xu wanted to strike while the iron was hot and tie himself to the imperial palace. From now on, no one in Zuixian City would dare to provoke him. This wishful thinking was very effective.

"Yu Xu, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you think Mr. Suo Si is a waste like Lu Ye? Do you still need help from others to find this fine wine in the garden?"

Unexpectedly, just when Yu Xu thought he was very flattering and wanted to be subject to the common sense of the master, he suddenly heard a deep shout, which made his expression change drastically.

The person speaking at this moment was the Great Elder of the Imperial Palace. He came with Ma Nanfeng this time because he had other important matters, but as an alcoholic, he also valued the Drunken Immortal Conference very seriously.

To be able to become a powerful figure in the imperial palace of Zuixian City, everyone from Ma Nanfeng on down is a heavy drinker, and this great elder is no exception, and he really can't stand Yu Xu's shamelessness.

The flattering look of Pi.

You, Yu Xu, are not yet a cultivator of the Imperial Palace, but you are so flattering to the Master. Could it be that you want to join the Imperial Palace one day and usurp your position as the great elder?

The great elder of Zuixian City Imperial Palace thought a little too much, and what he said was considered a fact, which made Ma Nanfeng, who had not thought of all this at first, couldn't help but become a little gloomy.

Ma Nanfeng had seen the situation when Yun Xiao, a young man in rough clothes, helped Lu Ye just now, and he was quite disdainful of relying on outsiders to get through.

What Yu Xu is doing at this moment is not saying that the person in charge of his dignified imperial palace actually needs help from others to pass the examination. This is a big blow to his prestige.

"I...I'm not..."

Yu Xu almost fell to the ground after being shouted at by the great elder. How could he not know that the flattery this time was flattering, but he also didn't know how to argue. Could he admit that it was intentional flattery?

?

"Get out of here!"

Ma Nanfeng, who had a good impression of Yu Xu just now, couldn't help but feel disgusted when he looked at this face. After these four words were spoken, Yu Xu's neck shrank and he didn't dare to say another word.

As if to prove his mastery of wine, after Ma Nanfeng finished drinking, he ignored Yu Xu's ugly expression and walked straight towards a big tree.

This is a forest garden with pavilions and lofts. Naturally, there are also some lush and lush trees, and the one Ma Nanfeng chose looks no different from other big trees in appearance.

Due to his status as the director of the imperial palace, many people's eyes were fixed on Ma Nanfeng at this moment, even Yun Xiao was no exception, but the sparkle in his eyes was a bit more intense than others.

"Oh, this Lord Suo Si does have some good eyesight!"

A soft voice came from Yun Xiao's mouth, and then everyone saw Ma Nanfeng take out an extremely sharp long knife from his waist with a swishing sound, and then slashed it towards the trunk of the big tree.

Crack!

Only a soft sound was heard. The weapon that had reached the advanced level of heaven was so sharp. Coupled with Ma Nanfeng's cultivation in the late stage of Tongtian level, with this sword strike, the big tree that the two people hugged was suddenly broken from the middle.

Come on.

Wow!

The sound of the tree falling was so shocking that the cultivators in that direction hurriedly moved aside. However, they were afraid of Ma Nanfeng's status and strength, so they only dared to be angry but dared not speak out.

And more people focused their eyes on the fracture of the big tree. They saw that the remaining section of the wooden pile had a smooth and neat fracture, and there was a hollow in it, with something like lotion inside.
