Chapter 98 Red Apricot Wine and Spiritual Wood (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe)

At the foot of Huanglong Mountain.

Liujiacun.

Zhou Qing rode a horse for an hour and arrived at the loquat forest at the entrance of the village.

After entering the village, he went straight to the new village chief's home and found the two Fu brothers resting in the yard.

"Two brothers, meet again."

Zhou Qing cupped his fists and saluted the Fu brothers.

Fu Zongchang's eyes changed slightly and he stood up with a smile.

"Oh? Why is it Brother Zhou? Could it be that the higher-ups sent you to perform the mission with us?"

"That's right." Zhou Qing nodded.

“I was supposed to leave yesterday, but I didn’t expect to be delayed all night.

As you two know, I am a more cautious person.

This time I received an order to deal with the mandrill, so I made more preparations.

Am I not late? "

"Of course it's not too late!" Fu Zongchang said with a smile on his face.

"There is plenty of time for the mission, and we are not in a hurry to go up the mountain."

"With Brother Zhou coming to help, the chances of winning will be greatly increased." Fu Zongming agreed.

Before, they thought Zhou Qing was just a weakling with neither strength nor courage.

But after he captured the seriously injured seventh master of Jindao Village alive last time, no one dared to underestimate him.

At least he is really strong.

After this matter, the two brothers discussed it in private and felt that Zhou Qing must have discovered something unusual that night, or perhaps out of caution, he did not rush up the mountain.

The same thing is true. If a strong person is afraid of death, that is prudent, not cowardly.

However, the two of them did not expect that the person sent to support this time was Zhou Qing, an 'old acquaintance'.

The two brothers looked at each other with smiles on their faces.

He escaped a disaster last time, but he had no such luck this time.

As it happens, tonight is January 15th.

On a full moon night, Lin Tianzheng's Corpse Insect Gu King needs to come out to absorb the power of the moonlight, and its combat power will be greatly reduced by then.

Although Zhou Qing should have the strength to compete with ordinary muscle-training warriors, and Lin Tianzheng was also seriously injured, it was a bit difficult for him to kill Lin Tianzheng.

But Zhou Qing should be able to test Lin Tianzheng's reality.

If Lin Tianzheng is really seriously injured and unable to recover, tonight will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Together, the two brothers can fight against the muscle-training warrior.

At the critical moment, if a sneak attack could be successful, Lin Tianzheng might be killed in one fell swoop.

By then, the two brothers will be able to obtain the Gu Master inheritance from Lin Tianzheng, subdue the Corpse Insect Gu King, fly far away, and maybe hope to break through to the Bone Refining Realm in the future.

Even if it doesn't work, using these means to find a small place to be a local tyrant and keep wealth for the rest of your life will be considered a life worth living.

This time I really gave him a pillow when I felt sleepy.

Zhou Qing's strength is neither strong nor weak, just right.

"I haven't explored the terrain of Huanglong Mountain on the ground yet. If I really go into the mountain, I'll have to use the two brothers as the main ones."

Zhou Qing laughed along with the two of them.

"Easy to say, easy to say. With us here, we will definitely not let Brother Zhou go astray." Fu Zongming meant something.

"Thank you both very much." Zhou Qing clasped his fists.

There should be no need for force, these two people would take him directly to Lin Tianzheng.

"We are all colleagues, we are our own people, don't be so alienated. Come! Brother Zhou, drink some wine to warm yourself up."

Fu Zongchang untied the wine gourd from his waist, pulled out the stopper, and handed it over.

Smelling the aroma of wine slowly overflowing, Zhou Qing's eyes lit up.

"Then I would be disrespectful."

He took the wine gourd, raised his head and drank, with a faint floral fragrance coming out of his mouth.

“Good wine!”

Zhou Qing drank all the wine in the gourd in one breath.

The wine bug in Dantian turned over.

Apparently he likes this wine.

"Oh, I was so greedy for the contents of this cup that I accidentally drank it all." Zhou Qing patted his head.

"It's an honor for this red apricot wine to be loved by Brother Zhou."

Fu Zongchang smiled.

"If Brother Zhou likes it, I will give you the recipe for making this wine. How about it?"

"Why is this so embarrassing?" Zhou Qing's eyes lit up, this was such an unexpected surprise.

"It doesn't matter, it's not a precious thing."

Fu Zongchang waved his hand.

He put his hand into his arms and quickly took out a piece of yellowed parchment and handed it to Zhou Qing.

"Thank you, Brother Zongchang!" Zhou Qing took the parchment.

If Fu Zongchang was sincere and did not harm innocent villagers, he would be a little reluctant to kill him.

"Now that we have this secret recipe for brewing wine, how can we miss out on the key ingredients?"

Fu Zongming stood up, took out the booklet and charcoal pen used for writing, and drew a sketch for Zhou Qing on the spot.

"Brother Zhou, my two brothers accidentally discovered an apricot blossom tree in the mountains.

Its blooming apricot flowers and fruits are important materials for brewing apricot wine.

Since my brother has given you the secret recipe, I will tell you the location of the Xinghua Spirit Tree. "

After drawing the sketch, Fu Zongming tore off the page and handed it to Zhou Qing.

When Fu Zongchang on the side saw this, his eyes changed slightly and he immediately smiled.

"This" Zhou Qing was surprised and happy.

These Fu brothers are really ‘loyal people’!

"Brother Qing, take it." Fu Zongming thrust the page into Zhou Qing's hand.

"Thank you, brother Zong Ming!" Zhou Qing clasped his fists.

It's better to kill them first and then let the Gu insects eat.

"Maybe it's just feeling like old friends at first sight." Fu Zongchang said with a smile.

"I think so too." Fu Zongming clapped his hands.

The three of them started talking, from the county town to the mountains and forests, from fine wine to beauties.

From time to time there was pleasant laughter.

Only when the new village chief called them to have dinner did Zhou Qing notice that it was already evening.

It would be great if we could truly have a few close friends in this world.

It's a pity that both sides have their own agendas.

If it weren't for catering, the conversation might not be so cheerful.

Or maybe, the two of them have such personalities.

In life, many people have times when they have no choice.

There are a few people who can really be their own masters.

"Alas" Zhou Qing looked at the setting sun on the horizon and suddenly sighed.

"Why did Brother Qing sigh when he was so happy?" Fu Zongchang was puzzled.

"The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it's almost dusk."

Zhou Qing blurted out.

time is limited.

"The sunset is infinitely beautiful but it's almost dusk. I didn't expect Brother Qing to be able to write poems out of his mouth. He is a sentimental and learned man. It's disrespectful and disrespectful." Fu Zongchang joked.

"Yes. Time is running out." Fu Zongming sighed.

"Second brother is saying that the happy time spent with Brother Zhou is fleeting and I can't bear to leave you." Fu Zongchang said with a smile and gently tugged on Fu Zongming's sleeve.

Fu Zongming reacted and forced a smile on his face.

"Me too," Zhou Qing murmured.

As a modern person, his thinking mode cannot be completely transformed.

There are very few people in this world that he can really talk to.

The chat just now felt like a night chat in the dormitory when he first entered the freshman year.

Facing the Fu brothers' hypocritical smiles again, Zhou Qing came back to his senses.

pity

In this world, he must be ruthless.

"Brother Qing, there is no need to be sentimental. Next time we have a chance, we can have a drink and talk at night."

Fu Zongchang raised the empty wine gourd and shook it.

"Yeah." Zhou Qing nodded.

"Let's eat first!" Fu Zongming said.

The three of them entered the main room together.

Maybe it was because the sun was setting, it was getting late, and the chill was getting thicker, or maybe they were about to go into the mountains to perform a mission, so the three of them didn't say much during the meal.

In just half a cup of tea, the three of them finished their meal and put down their bowls and chopsticks.

"It's time to hit the road." Fu Zongchang stood up and picked up the three sabers placed aside.

Throw two of them to Zhou Qing and Fu Zongming respectively.

"Let's go." Zhou Qing raised his hand and held the scabbard firmly.

The three of them left the village and headed north.

After entering the mountain, the Fu brothers took out the map and looked at it from time to time.

They led Zhou Qing out of a serpentine arc, first up, then down, through a narrow path, and finally came to a canyon.

"This is Huanglong Gorge. After many explorations, we believe that the mandrill is very likely to be hiding here."

Fu Zong pointed to the river he was going to.

"This is a tributary of the Heishui River."

Zhou Qing looked around and saw mountains, cliffs and wonderful scenery on both sides of Huanglong Gorge.

The steep and continuous peaks are hundreds of meters above the water, and the narrowest point is only about ten meters.

The setting sun is setting in the west, the setting sun is like blood, and the sunset is all over the sky.

The sky turned into a burning sea of ​​fire, and sparkling red waves appeared on the river.
