Discerning wine was completely different from what Gu Qingfeng had imagined.
He had thought that the discerning wine in the legends should be the same as the wine in the real world. Not to mention the aroma of the wine, not to mention the carefree feeling, one should at least feel something after drinking a cup.
But this cup of discerning wine did not have any aroma. After drinking a cup, there was no feeling at all. It was like drinking plain water, without even a hint of saltiness. As for the feeling, there was no need to talk about it. There was no feeling at all. Drinking plain water could make one feel thirsty, but drinking this thing was like drinking nothing.
Wine in the real world, after drinking it, would more or less have some magical effects on the body. Some could nourish the essence, return to the original, transform into the spirit, and so on. After drinking the discerning wine, Gu Qingfeng deliberately sensed that there was no change in his spiritual consciousness.
Good wine.
Either he wanted to get drunk.
Or he wanted a magical effect.
Or he wanted a feeling.
He had to do something, right?
Otherwise, why would he drink it?
On the other hand, Gu Qingfeng really didn't know what the wine was for. It didn't even have a f * cking taste. It could be said that it had nothing. Gu Qingfeng really didn't know what the point of drinking this thing was.
"How is it?"
Senior Feng Zhu sat upright, gently lifted a cup of discerning wine, and took a sip. He looked at Gu Qingfeng with a smile and asked, "Little friend Qingfeng, how do you feel about this discerning wine?"
"Maybe it's because it's my first time drinking it." Gu Qingfeng shook his head and said, "I don't feel anything special."
Senior Feng Zhu smiled faintly and said, "Little friend Qingfeng, don't tell me you're tasting this discerning wine in the same way as ordinary wine?"
"Otherwise, how should I taste it? Could it be that there's something special about drinking this discerning wine? "
"It's not that special, but … discerning wine naturally requires one to feel it with one's consciousness. Only then can one taste the wonders of the wine."
"I still have to feel it with my consciousness?" Gu Qingfeng sensed it carefully, but he still didn't feel anything special. After a while, he felt an indescribable feeling. It was as if he had returned home to soak in a hot spring after a tiring day. It felt very comfortable.
Carefully feeling it again, his consciousness actually had a refreshing feeling.
All this was like a dream, too wonderful for words.
"I see." Gu Qingfeng was pleasantly surprised and said, "This discerning wine really has a different flavor. The ethereal and dreamy feeling is quite good. It also seems to have a warming effect on the consciousness."
"Of course. To tell you the truth, it's all thanks to this Discerning Wine that I's remnant consciousness was able to persist until now."
"Really? Looks like it's really something good. "
Clearly, Gu Qingfeng suspected that Senior Feng Zhu's words were exaggerated.
No matter how miraculous the knowledge of wine was, it was still just knowledge of wine. Even if it could nourish a remnant of consciousness, Senior Feng Zhu couldn't rely on the knowledge of wine to maintain it. Perhaps the remnant of the old man's consciousness was unimaginably powerful.
Gu Qingfeng didn't dwell on this issue, nor did he ask. He raised his cup and toasted Feng Zhu before asking, "Senior, why have you been here for so long? Is it because you can't leave or because you don't want to? Looking at your expression, it doesn't seem like you can't leave. "
"I am waiting for someone here."
"Waiting for someone?" Gu Qingfeng asked, "Who?"
"A fated person."
"I wonder if Senior has found the fated person you've been waiting for?"
"Since the end of the Primordial Era, I have been waiting here. After the Immemorial Era, the Remote Antiquity Era, the High Antiquity Era, and now, after ten thousand years, I have finally found the fated person I've been waiting for."
Hearing this, Gu Qingfeng murmured Senior Feng Zhu's words, especially the word 'now'. He couldn't help but be startled. He asked, "Senior, don't tell me the fated person you've been waiting for is me?"
"Yes and no."
Gu Qingfeng didn't quite understand Senior Feng Zhu's words. He asked, "What do you mean?"
"I am only waiting for the fated person, not Little Friend Qingfeng. Coincidentally, Little Friend Qingfeng is this fated person."
Gu Qingfeng understood. Senior Feng Zhu was waiting for the fated person, and this fated person could be anyone. Just like Senior Feng Zhu said, Gu Qingfeng was the fated person he was waiting for. If the fated person was someone else, such as Ancestor Lin Chi, then Ancestor Lin Chi would be the person he was waiting for.
"What kind of fate are you talking about?" Gu Qingfeng asked, "Is it the fate between us?"
"No! Little Friend, you misunderstand. " Senior Feng Zhu stroked his neat white beard and said, "The fated person I am waiting for is not the fate between us, but the fate between Little Friend and an ominous item."
"An ominous item? What is it?" Gu Qingfeng asked.
This time, Senior Feng Zhu didn't answer. The smile on his face gradually disappeared and he became serious.
Gu Qingfeng thought about it. There was only one cauldron left in these ruins, so he probed, "Senior, are you talking about this cauldron?"
"It is the ominous item sealed inside this cauldron."
"Really?" Gu Qingfeng found it hard to believe: "I have opened the seal on the eye of the cauldron more than once. There was nothing inside, and I have never seen anything ominous."
Senior Feng Zhu was silent again. He held the wine bottle and poured a cup for Old Qing Feng. He also poured a cup for himself. He raised his cup and drank it all. After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Before Qing Feng came here, that ominous item was sealed in the eye of this cauldron. When Qing Feng came to the Desolate Ancient Ruins, the ominous item disappeared."
"What do you mean, Senior? I have never seen that inauspicious thing, nor have I ever taken it. "
Senior Feng Zhu stared at Gu Qingfeng with a strange expression. Gu Qingfeng felt uncomfortable and had a bad feeling.
"When little friend Qing Feng came in, that ominous item had already fused into your body."
What!?
Gu Qingfeng was shocked to hear this. His first reaction was that it was impossible. Ever since he entered these ruins, he had been very careful. He knew that this place was mysterious and strange, so he didn't dare to be careless. Moreover, he hadn't sensed anything strange after so long. If there really was an ominous item that had entered his body, Gu Qingfeng felt that it was impossible for him not to know.
"Senior, are you trying to scare me?"
Senior Feng Zhu didn't say anything. He only stared at Gu Qingfeng solemnly.
Gu Qingfeng was frightened by his stare. He didn't say anything else. Instead, he carefully sensed to see if there really was an ominous item that had entered his body.
