The Basics of Alchemy was all-encompassing. There were all kinds of basic formulas and medicines, including the formula for medicinal wine. Yang Wu just followed the method to refine them. He believed that he could refine some good medicinal wine.
After refining the medicinal essences, some stalactites were added into the mix. Then, with the pure spring water that the little demon fetched from the mountain spring, Yang Wu began to refine barrel after barrel of medicinal wine.
The medicinal wine had not been refined for a long time, but the fragrance of the wine had already filled the air. The three Heaven Demons wanted to try the medicinal wine on the spot.
After a day and night of refining, the hundred barrels of medicinal wine were completely completed.
This medicinal wine was not like alchemy. It was relatively easier. With Yang Wu's current speed, he could still complete the production.
"Okay, you just need to leave it for forty-nine days. After the medicinal taste has completely fermented, you can drink it. However, it's best to leave it for a few more days. The longer it is, the more fragrant the wine will be. "Yang Wu reminded.
"Okay, okay. With this wine, it's enough for us siblings to drink for a while." The Celestial Phenomenon Beast was satisfied.
"Come on, Big Brother. I want one-third of this medicinal wine, so you don't steal it and drink it." The Brute Demon Bull said and went over to take the medicinal wine.
The tigress said bluntly, "That's right. Big Brother, you don't keep your word every time. These wines were given to us by Brother Yang Wu. We should split them equally."
"Big Brother is not that bad." The Celestial Phenomenon Beast said bitterly.
"That's right!" The other two Heaven Demons said in unison.
Yang Wu saw that the three siblings had such a good relationship and was incomparably envious. He opened his mouth and said, "Time is a bit tight this time. Next time this little brother comes, I will definitely refine some good wine for my two brothers and sister."
"Okay, okay." The three Heaven Demons responded happily.
Just like that, Yang Wu did not delay any longer. He quickly bid farewell to them and embarked on the return journey.
The three Heaven Demons sent him all the way to the foot of the Barbarian Mountain. This alarmed all the barbarians here.
"They are the Lord Guardians. Why are they accompanying a young man from Great Xia?"
"The Lord Protectors stay on the mountain all year round. It's rare to see them even after several years. Quick, kneel down and worship them."
"Greetings, Lord Protector. Thank you for protecting our clan for generations of peace and prosperity."
"Is that young man an honored guest of the Lord Guardian? The three Lord Guardians are chatting and laughing with him. "
…
"Brother Yang Wu will be a distinguished guest of our tribe in the future. You will treat him as if you are seeing us." Tian Xiang Yao solemnly announced to all the barbarians.
Just like that, a young man named Yang Wu became famous in every tribe of the Barbarian Race. Everyone was trying to find out about this young man's background. No matter who he was, they all wanted to befriend him.
After that, Yang Wu and Meng Bingxue went back to the Huangfu tribe with the barbarian soldiers.
Along the way, there were many barbarians following them. They all wanted to see what the young man looked like so that they could report back to their tribe. This way, they would be able to recognize this distinguished guest in the future.
This time, Yang Wu didn't have time to enjoy the scenery of the grassland. He was already anxious to return to Great Xia as soon as possible.
As long as he carried out his plan, no one could stop him from returning to King City.
One day later, Yang Wu returned to the Huangfu tribe.
This time, the Huangfu tribe's team to welcome him was even grander. Not only did Huangfu Zhanxiong appear, but even Huangfu Taigeng and some elders appeared one after another.
They already knew in advance that Yang Wu had become an honored guest of the three Lord Guardians. This also meant that Yang Wu had gained the recognition of the three Lord Guardians. Thus, they had no reason to not treat Yang Wu as an honored guest and receive him with the highest standard.
This night, there was a large-scale bonfire activity in the Huangfu tribe. People sang and danced, and it was incomparably lively. Many barbarian women continuously gave Yang Wu cups of horse milk wine.
All of a sudden, there were more than ten cups of horse milk wine in front of Yang Wu, which made him a little dazed. Just as he was about to drink them one by one, he heard Huangfu Taigeng say faintly from the side, "Little brother Yang Wu, if you like a girl, drink all of her wine and you can marry her as your wife."
"Uh, is there a saying about this?" Yang Wu was stunned for a moment and asked.
"This is the custom of our tribe. Men giving wine to men represents friendship. Women giving wine to men not only represents friendship, but also represents love. If you only treat her as a friend, then drinking one mouthful is enough. If you want to marry her, then drink all the horse milk wine and she will belong to you," Huangfu Taigeng explained.
This time, Yang Wu was dumbfounded.
He suddenly remembered the scene where he drank all of Huangfu Mingyu's horse milk wine before he went to Mount Barbarian God, and his heart instantly panicked.
"Little brother Yang Wu, what's wrong with you? No matter what you choose, you still have to drink. This is your respect for them, "Huangfu Taigeng said when he saw Yang Wu in a daze.
Yang Wu came back to his senses and drank a mouthful of the horse milk wine one by one. He didn't dare to drink it all wantonly.
Even though the girls who gave the horse milk wine weren't very satisfied, they quickly smiled like flowers. They danced and hummed with their tribesmen and didn't suffer too much trouble.
"Right, what if someone accidentally drinks all the wine and doesn't want to take responsibility?" Yang Wu asked.
Huangfu Taigeng said, "This kind of man will be sentenced to castration." After a pause, he added, "If he can't be castrated, the woman will be a widow for the rest of her life."
Yang Wu instantly felt a chill in his lower body. He clamped his legs together for no reason and asked, "Where did the noble princess go? Why didn't she come out? "
"You mean Ah Yu? She already went to the Sacred Flame Sect," Huangfu Taigeng replied.
"Why did she go to the Sacred Flame Sect?"
"Her talent is extraordinary. She already had the ability to go to the Sacred Flame Sect for the examination. It's just that she's naturally playful, so she kept delaying it. I don't know how she changed her personality and went to the Sacred Flame Sect. It won't be easy to see her in the future."
"It really isn't easy." For some reason, Yang Wu felt a wave of guilt in his heart when he heard that Huangfu Mingyu had left the Barbarian Tribe. He looked at the flickering bonfire and felt an inexplicable sense of melancholy.
Huangfu Mingyu should be the Little Man's sister. He drank her wine. When she said "you want to marry me," she wasn't joking. She was very serious. Unfortunately, he rejected her. He wasn't castrated because Huangfu Mingyu knew that he couldn't be castrated. Then, would she be a widow for the rest of her life?
Thinking of this, he felt that this custom was too deceitful. He didn't know about it beforehand. Shouldn't it be "the ignorant are innocent?"
The night ended with laughter. Yiren had already gone far away, but a faint sense of melancholy still lingered.
When dawn came, Yang Wu didn't have the nerve to stay any longer. He said goodbye to Huangfu Zhanxiong and asked him to do it as soon as possible according to their agreement.
Huangfu Zhanxiong naturally didn't refuse. He told Yang Wu to rest assured that he would do what they had agreed on.
Yang Wu and Meng Bingxue went back together and got two horses. One was the Dragon Blooded Horse that they rode when they came, and the other was the Wild Red Hare Horse that they won from Huangfu Luozhong.
These two horses were the best of the best. They had extraordinary endurance, especially the Wild Red Hare Horse. It wasn't inferior to the Dragon Blooded Horse at all. If they were nurtured properly, they could become the king of horses.
Yang Wu originally wanted to go back with Meng Bingxue, but Meng Bingxue didn't want to. Wherever Yang Wu sat on, she would sit on the same horse. She wanted to stick close to Yang Wu, so Yang Wu could only let her be.
Just like that, Yang Wu and Meng Bingxue went back to the Wolf Smoke Mountain Range.
Naturally, there were barbarian soldiers escorting them along the way.
Along the way, the scenery of the grassland was still beautiful. However, the travelers were eager to go home and didn't have the heart to stay.
When they passed by Xue Tie Shou's tent, they stopped.
It wasn't that they wanted to stop, but a dark-skinned young man blocked their way.
"Who dares to block our honored guest's path? Get out of the way!" The barbarian general shouted at the young man.
Yang Wu raised his hand and stopped the general from speaking. He asked the young man, "Do you need something?"
"My … my foster father wants to treat you to a drink." The young man stuttered nervously.
"Haha, I should be the one treating him to a drink this time." Yang Wu laughed and brought Meng Bingxue to the tent.
Ding! Ding!
Ding! Ding! The front of the tent was the place where the blacksmiths were forged. Xue Gui was still doing the same thing. He wasn't affected by Yang Wu's arrival.
It could be seen that it wasn't Xue Gui who wanted to treat Yang Wu to a drink. It was the young man who made the decision to invite Yang Wu over.
Yang Wu didn't think too much about the reason. He went to the forge and said, "I'll treat you to a drink."
After saying that, he took out the bottle of horse milk from his waist and handed it over.
The "Shame of the Great Xia" man raised his head and put down the hammer and materials in his hands. He didn't immediately take the wine from Yang Wu. Instead, he asked, "Give me a reason to drink."
"You're a man. That's a good enough reason." Yang Wu said seriously.
In the Great Xia, everyone thought that Xue Gui was a traitor. However, Yang Wu now knew that this man's suffering wasn't something that anyone could understand. From this lonely tent, Yang Wu could guess that he was indeed a man.
"That reason is not enough!" Xue Gui shook his head.
"Then take it as my return for the gift you gave me the other day." Yang Wu hesitated for a moment before saying.
"That's barely enough, but it's still not enough." Xue Gui sighed.
"If that's the case, then let's toast to the peaceful coexistence of our two nations."
"Can we coexist peacefully?"
"If I say we can, then we can."
"Okay, I'll drink this wine."
…
Horse milk wine. The horse was fat, the milk was fragrant, and the wine was strong. To a man, to a hero, to peace. The wine spilled over the heavens and the earth. The sun and the moon were the witnesses.
When the wine was drunk, the man murmured, "I should go back."
"Then go back."
