Xu Ke was caught off guard by the sudden arrival of this old deacon.
For a moment, Xu Ke couldn't figure out what to do. He didn't know what this person wanted to do when he suddenly came over.
"Meet the deacon."
Xu Ke composed himself, saluted quickly, and said hello, "I wonder if you have come here this time, what are your orders?"
This person is a senior of the sect after all, so he shouldn’t be in trouble with a low-level disciple like me, right?
I don't have a lot of treasures, nor do I have huge wealth. Even if I have some talent, I don't have the light or fire spiritual roots needed for the true inheritance of the sect. There should be nothing that makes people think about me.
"Haha, don't be in a hurry."
The white-haired old man smiled, swayed, fell from the cave entrance, and appeared next to Xu Ke.
Turning his head and looking at the "underground cave", the old man smiled and nodded, "You also built a cave? Yes, you have mastered the magic of solidifying stone into stone."
"The deacon is ridiculous."
Xu Ke was still a little confused about the man's purpose, so he just said a humble word.
The white-haired old man looked at the "big pot" where Xu Ke was cooking Lingmi, and said to Xu Ke: "You have cooked all the Qianzhong millet? What are you doing?"
"this……"
Xu Ke touched his head and said, "This disciple plans to brew spiritual wine."
"Brewing spiritual wine?"
The white-haired old man turned around and smiled at Xu Ke, "So you also like brewing wine! However, for Qianzhongsu, it is not easy to brew good wine. Anyway, I am also a little itchy, so I will take action. "
With that said, the white-haired old man didn't care whether Xu Ke agreed or not, turned around and walked to the entrance of the "cauldron", ready to take action.
"Watch it."
The white-haired old man waved his hand, and an icy cold air swept out and enveloped the "cauldron", cooling down the newly cooked Qianzhong millet.
“To make good wine from Qianzhong millet, the fermentation temperature is key. At this temperature, it feels neither cold nor hot.”
With a wave of his hand, the cold air dissipated, and the cooked Qianzhong millet cooled down to the required temperature.
“Now it’s fermentation.”
The white-haired old man stretched out his palm again, "Different brewing materials require different fermentation methods. The fermentation of Qianzhong millet is the simplest. It only requires one fermentation, but... you need to change the water first!"
As he said that, the white-haired old man stretched out his hand and grabbed the remaining water in the cooked Qianzhong millet. The old man grabbed it and condensed it into a huge water ball.
Throwing the water ball out of the hole above his head, the white-haired old man turned to look at Xu Ke and smiled, "Now here is my secret. In addition to raw materials, water is also very important for making wine. My secret is to use nectar. Technique."
As he spoke, the white-haired old man used the Ganlin technique to add water to the cooked Qianzhong millet.
Xu Ke blinked, still a little confused. What are you doing? Make wine for me?
After the white-haired old man cast the Rain Technique and added water, he began to cast the Fermentation Technique. The magical aura covered the "cauldron" of Qianzhong millet, and the raw materials fermented rapidly.
"There is nothing to say about the fermentation process. The only thing you need to pay attention to is to continue casting spells and keep the spells running until the fermentation is completed."
The old man explained to Xu Ke while maintaining the continuous operation of the fermentation technique.
Under the influence of the spell, the fermentation time that originally took several days was condensed into just a few moments.
After the Qianzhong millet in the "cauldron" was completely fermented, the old man stopped the magic operation and said to Xu Ke: "The next step is to extract the wine."
While running his spiritual power, the old man explained to Xu Ke, "This extraction process is the most critical. The extraction technique does not automatically extract the wine, but requires you to anchor what needs to be extracted. If the operation is not performed properly, what will be extracted is Trash, not wine.”
"You release a trace of spiritual power, follow my extraction technique, and experience how I extract the wine, and you will be able to master how to extract it in the future."
Hearing what the old man said, Xu Ke had no choice but to release a bit of spiritual power and blend it into the extraction technique the old man was about to cast.
The next moment, the old man cast an extraction technique on the fermented Qianzhong millet.
Xu Ke followed the trace of spiritual power integrated into the extraction technique and sensed the old man's process of extracting the wine.
In Xu Ke's spiritual induction, the old man used his spiritual power to quickly anchor the alcohol content, and then anchored the spiritual power characteristics of Qian Zhongsu and the spiritual power characteristics of Ganlin Technique.
After reaching this point, the old man paused and said to Xu Ke: "The next step is to add water. If you want to make high-alcohol wine, choose less water. If you want to make low-alcohol wine, choose more water. . This can be determined according to personal taste and preferences. What kind of wine do you plan to make?"
"High-end bar! Drink less alcohol. If there is too much, I don't have anything suitable to hold it."
Xu Ke quickly stated his request.
"If you just lack a container, then there is no need to deliberately refine high-strength wine."
The old man smiled and said, "Let's do this. I will make you the most popular medium-strength wine and a container to hold the wine. You don't have to worry."
As he spoke, the old man used his spiritual power to anchor a moderate amount of water, determined all the extracted substances, and officially started the extraction technique.
The next moment, a strong aroma of wine wafted up.
A stream of crystal clear wine flew out from the fermented Qianzhong millet, turned into a water line, and flew towards the white-haired old man.
The old man flicked his sleeves, took out a jade-carved gourd, opened the lid, and caught the water line.
The water line is endless, and the wine continues to fall into the gourd.
The pile of fermented Qianzhong millet was quickly squeezed into dregs and turned into distiller's grains.
After a while, the extraction is complete.
"It's not bad. I produced about 2,300 kilograms of wine."
The white-haired old man handed the gourd to Xu Ke, "Take it, the gourd is given to you."
Xu Ke did not reach out to pick it up.
When you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something.
As a deacon of the Sinong Hall, this white-haired old man had at least a foundation-building level, and his status was far beyond that of Xu Ke, a first-class deacon disciple of the Sinong Hall.
There must be a reason why he is both a "leader" and a "senior" and is so "courteous to others", and it is definitely not because Xu Ke is handsome and pleasing to the eye.
“I don’t know what the senior’s instructions are, please let me know clearly!”
Xu Ke bowed and said, "If it is within your ability, I will not refuse."
The implication is that if I can't do it, I can only refuse. I don't have the consciousness to risk my life for others.
"I do need your help with something."
The white-haired old man glanced at Xu Ke, "Take the gourd! Regardless of whether you can help or not, this gourd is given to you."
"This... is a gift from the elders. I dare not refuse it. This disciple is ashamed to accept it!"
Xu Ke didn't refuse anymore and reached out to take the jade gourd.
In fact, Xu Ke also knew very well that it was very rare for this white-haired old man to be so "courteous to others". If he refused again, he would be disrespectful.
He was a "leader" and a senior person, so he really offended someone. He relied on his status and strength to exert pressure and directly force orders, but he couldn't resist at all.
"I wonder if there is something senior that I need my disciple to do for me?"
Xu Ke bowed his hands and asked the old man.
