Outside the Fiery Passion bar, with Ji Dong's status as a beggar, it was naturally impossible for him to have a taste. Thus, he could only watch, smell, and listen. Relying on his acute sense of smell, hearing, and eyesight, as well as his experience as the God of Wine, he smelled the aroma of the bartenders as they mixed their drinks. He carefully observed the expressions of the drinkers, the changes in their bodies, and the comments they made. After a whole month, Ji Dong had grasped the taste of the majority of the alcohol here, and compared it with the alcohol of his original world.
If anyone knew that he could judge a drink like this, and even mix it successfully, their jaws would probably drop to the ground. Moreover, the cocktail recipe was extremely rigorous. After coming to a new world, he could adjust the proportion of ingredients based on his own observation. Ji Dong was definitely worthy of the title of the God of Wine.
As for Yang, he was also the main target of Ji Dong's observation. If he wanted to solve the problem of food and clothing, he naturally had to have a way, and with his pride and self-esteem as the God of Wine, he would never allow himself to be an ordinary bartender. Therefore, Ji Dong chose Yang.
Yang would go to the Flaming Bar every day to burn his emotions. With Ji Dong's eyesight, he could naturally see that this old customer not only had a wealth of wine tasting experience and dedication to good wine, but also had an extraordinary status. His appearance today was not a coincidence, but had been carefully planned. Whether it was the route to sneak into the open-air bar or the time to make a sound, it was all carefully thought out by Ji Dong. Even his immediate departure after mixing the drinks was part of the plan. This was the strategy of loosening the reins only to grasp better.
The reason why Ji Dong sighed earlier was not only because of his current depravity, but also because of this body. In his previous life, he was tall and handsome, but in this life, not only was he very skinny because of his age, this body was too weak. The Three Suns Illuminating the Moon mixing technique just now was done after careful consideration by Ji Dong in order to match this body. For him in his previous life, this was a very simple technique, but today, this body almost failed. The Three Suns were made, but the moon was not, so it could only be considered a success. Of course, outsiders would not be able to tell.
Moreover, because of the concentration and the physical exertion during the bartending process, he felt extremely weak now. He couldn't even walk steadily. An excellent bartender must have an excellent body. Otherwise, no matter how good his skills were, he wouldn't be able to perform well. Ji Dong was now faced with this helpless embarrassment.
"Little brother, wait a minute." Ji Dong only saw a blur in front of him. A red shadow flashed, and Yang was already in front of him.
So fast. Is this the speed that a human can achieve? Ji Dong looked at Yang and couldn't help but be shocked. He was sure that Yang's speed just now was definitely faster than the 100m sprint champion in his previous world. One should know that his hearing was very good. When Yang shouted, he was at least tens of meters away, and in the next moment, he was in front of him. This was really incomprehensible to him. However, from the change in Yang's way of addressing him, Ji Dong knew that he had achieved his goal.
Looking at the skinny Ji Dong in front of him, whose face was covered by dirt and was obviously malnourished, Yang still couldn't believe that the glass of wine from before was actually made by him. However, the truth was right in front of him, and he had no choice but to believe it.
"Little brother, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Ji Dong glanced at him and said, "I've finished mixing the wine. Why aren't you leaving?"
Yang exclaimed, "The Flaming Bar Burning Passion you just made is the most unique cocktail I've had in all these years. However, I'm very curious. Since you have this skill, why do you still …"
Of course, Ji Dong understood the meaning behind his words. The pride that came from his bones made him subconsciously puff out his chest and say, "Wine is an art. Using money to measure it is a stain to it. Even though I no longer have a family, even though I've fallen to become a beggar, not just anyone can drink the wine I mix. I helped you today because I saw that you were also a wine lover, and I don't want you to continue being intoxicated by that trash."
Although these words came from the mouth of a child who was only eleven or twelve years old, Yang didn't doubt it at all because of the Flaming Bar Burning Passion. Rubbing his hands together, the expression in Yang's eyes changed, as if he had decided on something. He said, "Little brother, I won't beat around the bush with you. I hope to drink the wine you mix every day. I don't know if I have such an honor."
"You? On what basis? "Ji Dong raised his chin and looked up at Yang, but there wasn't the slightest bit of fear in his eyes.
Yang looked him in the eye and said, "On the basis that my only hobbies in life are wine and this." As he spoke, his eyes suddenly lit up, and an indescribable pressure was suddenly released from his body. Ji Dong felt a tightness in his chest, and instinctively took a few steps back.
A glaring red light suddenly exploded with Yang's body as the center. Under his control, the red light only rose up within a one-meter radius around his body, but within a three-meter radius, the air actually rippled and distorted due to the red light. A huge fiery red phantom appeared behind Yang. It seemed to be a giant red bird, and its fiery red wings were spread out, as if it was flying. The red light around Yang's body was also enveloped in a layer of gold, making him look like a god who had descended from heaven. The invisible majesty was the source of the pressure.
Then, just above his head, the red light gathered, and a crown-like object appeared. The crown was dazzling white, and the moment it appeared, it immediately became the center of Yang and his aura. Even the giant fiery bird phantom behind him couldn't compare to it. The white crown looked exceptionally dazzling. Below it was a circle about five centimeters wide, and above it were nine triangular protrusions, each of which had a perfectly round ruby-like ball at the top. On the front of the lower circle, there were a total of three complete red five-pointed stars, and one and a half five-pointed star, shining with the same brilliance as the red balls on the nine tips of the crown. The most eye-catching thing was the flame pattern imprinted on the tip of the crown. The flame seemed to be alive, fluctuating on the tip of the crown. Because this strange crown was formed in a circle, Ji Dong couldn't see clearly whether there was a flame imprint on each of the protrusions, but he could clearly feel that this crown-like object contained extremely terrifying energy.
Ji Dong was stunned, is this magic?
Along with the changes on Yang's body, the temperature of the surrounding air was rising sharply, and the rolling heat waves made the scene in front of Ji Dong blurry.
Yang was very satisfied with Ji Dong's surprised expression, he smiled slightly and said: "How is it? Now, am I qualified to taste the wine you mixed? Don't worry, I'm not threatening you. I just want to tell you that I have the ability to change your life. My name is Yang Bingtian, the Dean of Fire City's Central Fire Academy, and I'm a Fire Element Level 7 Great Grandmaster. "
As he spoke, he raised his right hand, and the white crown on his head slowly floated out and fell on top of his palm, but it did not fall into place. Instead, it slowly rotated on his palm. Only then did Ji Dong see clearly. On the nine triangular tips of the crown, the front five were branded with a flame pattern, while the back four were not. Could these five flame patterns be the Five Crowns he was talking about?
Ji Dong pointed to the crown in Yang's hand and said with some sluggishness: "Can you tell me first, what is this thing? Also, what do you mean by the Five Crowns Sun Crown, Fire Element Level 7 Great Grandmaster? Why don't I understand? "
This time, it was Yang Bingtian's turn to be surprised. He stared at Ji Dong with wide eyes, as if looking at a monster, and said: "You … you don't even know the Demon Master Yin Yang Crown?"
So hot, so hot. Ji Dong only felt that the scenery in front of him was getting more and more blurred. The feeling of his head being heavy made his body sway slightly, but he still shook his head and murmured: "I don't know."
Yang Bingtian's eyes showed a trace of understanding and said: "No wonder you don't know. Begging for a living every day, you may not have come into contact with this level. Hey, what's wrong with you, little brother … …"
Ji Dong's body didn't allow him to persevere any longer. He hadn't had a good meal for the past month, and his body was already weak to begin with. The concentration he had when he was mixing the wine had almost exhausted all of his energy. Now that he was being roasted by the scorching heat in front of him, his vision darkened and he collapsed. The last thing he felt was that his body seemed to have been caught by someone and didn't smash into the hard ground.
When Yang Bingtian caught Ji Dong's body, the vision on his body had already disappeared. Feeling the weak blood vessels in Ji Dong's body, he sighed softly and said: "This child seems to be a pitiful person. I just don't know how he can make such a strange cocktail at such a young age. Is he a descendant of a noble family? Let's take him back first. " Immediately, he picked up Ji Dong's body and moved his feet slightly. In a few blinks of an eye, they had disappeared at the end of the street.
After sleeping for an unknown period of time, Ji Dong gradually regained consciousness. The rich fragrance stimulated his acute sense of smell along with his breath. This is … … the smell of chicken soup?
Slowly opening his eyes, the feeling of weakness did not completely disappear because of sleep. When he looked carefully, Ji Dong found himself lying in an unfamiliar place.
The windows were clean and the table was clean. The room was not very big, about 20 square meters or so. It was not luxurious and only had simple decorations. What attracted Ji Dong's attention the most was the mural on the ceiling. It was a vivid and lifelike Fire Phoenix. Its entire body was fiery red, and its wings were flapping as if it was going to break through the sky. The edge of the fiery red pattern was golden, and it was somewhat similar to the red light that Yang Bingtian released before he fainted. At this time, Ji Dong also came to his senses. So the light that appeared behind Yang Bingtian was a Fire Phoenix!
"You're awake." Yang Bingtian's gentle voice sounded. Ji Dong supported his body and sat up. He saw Yang Bingtian sitting on the other side of the table beside the bed. On the table was a clay pot, a plate of meat with soy sauce, and two steamed buns. Ji Dong lowered his head and looked at himself. He did not know when, but the dirt on his body had been washed away, and he had even changed into a clean set of clothes. The refreshing feeling that he had not felt for a long time made him feel refreshed.
Looking at the food on the table, Ji Dong said, "Are these for me?"
Yang Bingtian smiled and nodded. "Eat something first. Your body is very weak."
Ji Dong did not stand on ceremony. He picked up the empty bowl on the table and opened the clay pot. He did not need to look to know that it was a pot of chicken soup. His nose had already told him the answer.
What surprised Yang Bingtian was that although Ji Dong was obviously very hungry, he was not in a hurry when eating. He tore the steamed bun bit by bit and sent it into his mouth. He only ate half of it before stopping. He also only ate three or four thin slices of meat with soy sauce, but he drank two bowls of chicken soup. Although he did not maintain the elegance of a noble when eating, his natural movements gave people a very harmonious feeling.
"Why don't you eat more?" Yang Bingtian asked.
Ji Dong shook his head. "I haven't eaten a proper meal in a long time. There is too little oil in my stomach. Eating too much is not good for my body."
After listening to Ji Dong, Yang Bingtian could not help but be surprised. This child's mentality was very mature! "Are you willing to tell me about yourself?"
Ji Dong looked at Yang Bingtian. After two bowls of hot chicken soup entered his stomach, the warm feeling dispelled some of his weakness. He seemed to have some strength in his body. He said, "There is nothing to say. I come from a family that loves wine. After my family broke up, I wandered here. You want to know why I know how to mix wine? It's very simple. It's passed down in my family."
Before yesterday's operation, Ji Dong had already thought of an excuse. The more he said, the easier it would be for him to expose himself. The less he said, the better. He never thought that his excuse would not make Yang Bingtian suspicious. But so what if he was suspicious? His goal wasn't to hide his identity.
As expected, after hearing Ji Dong's words, Yang Bingtian frowned slightly. He carefully looked at Ji Dong for a long time, but he could not see anything from the calm and excited expression on his face.
"It seems that you are a child with a hard life."
Ji Dong put his hands on the table and said in a low voice, "I don't need pity. You brought me back because you want me to mix wine for you."
Yang Bingtian looked at him with a smile that was not a smile. He said, "Then are you willing?"
Ji Dong said, "First tell me, what was the change in your body yesterday? Also, what is that Devil Master Yin Yang Crown?"
