Chapter 313 A bitter
The warriors of the spirit clan were easily killed by James. Zell was inspired until then, Jan. Zell exhaled, walked to Li's side, and sent an invitation very politely: "So, Zhanwu Ryan, can you have the honor to invite you to taste a cup of bitter tea? It's just above your favorite tower.
"It's an honor."
Then Lee followed Jayne. Zell left the martial arts hall. The two of them didn't say a word on the way. After a while, they came to the highest point of the Oak Pavilion. The tower was only up, Jane. Zell personally brewed a cup of Ai bitter tea for Li. After putting the light green tea in front of Li, he sat in front of Li. "Please try it. I don't know if you are used to this taste?"
"It's a little bitter," Li Xiaokou tasted the green tea, and after making this strange taste spread in his mouth, he said, "Very strange tea, the taste is very strange."
"It's natural," Jayne. Zell smiled and said, "This is not ordinary tea. It is made of the leaves of various plants, such as fennel, seaweed, bee flowers, cypress, meat [beanthus] stalks, borona and many plants that are now almost extinct and very rare. The leaves of these plants are stir-fried, and then through multiple processes, finally Get a small bag of wormwood tea to make. In the glorious era, these things were used to make wine and wormwood. Have you ever heard of it?
"No."
"Then you must not have tasted it. I feel sorry for you. Ah, that's really a delicious food that people miss deeply. No matter how many tens of thousands of years have passed, I will never forget that taste. Although the taste is bitter, wormwood is the best of wine. We all like to call it the 'green fairy'. Of course, now, this wine has become an absolute prohibition. Even in some open arks, the existence of wormwood will not be allowed. In today's galaxy, there may be no wormwood, which is really a great pity.
"Can I ask why?"
"Of course, compared with ordinary wine, wormwood is more powerful and easier to drink," Jane. Zell was timid and said carelessly, "Well, in fact, this thing has a certain hallucinogenic effect. This kind of thing is a little dangerous. I have seen many people drink too much of it, and finally they are insane and kill themselves. But what about this? This universe is full of crises. I don't know how much malice is hidden in the darkness. I don't know how many lies are hidden under the face of goodwill. No matter how dangerous it is, it is still wormwood. What's the difference between a glass of absinthe and a sunset? " Say it here, Jayne. Zell took a deep look at Li and said apologeticly, "I said some strange words. There is a reason why you come here for tea. In the glorious period, whenever martial arts or various competitions are over, the winner will drink a glass of bitter wine to remind them that the glory of the winner is also bitter. Don't be carried away by this glory. Today, you are the winner, so you are qualified to drink a cup of wormwood tea that I brewed myself. I should have drunk, but unfortunately, brewing wine is a long process, and I just woke up.
"That's a pity. What you said, I'm full of longing for this kind of wine."
"You don't seem to be afraid."
"Why should I be afraid?"
"Wine is the sweetest drink. There is a sweet and intoxicating fragrance in the air of the glorious era, but it is also a poison for us now. It will make people more emotional, irrational and uncontrollable. It's like a poison. Even some highly regarded elders will become another person after getting drunk, doing many ridiculous things and even making unforgivable mistakes. James. Zell asked coldly, "Wine can make us unable to control ourselves. It will lead us into the arms of the great enemy. It is a deadly poison and will reduce our heart defense. Ai bitter wine is called a green fairy in the glorious era, but now it is called a 'green devil'. Don't you know this?"
The Phoenix Lord's questioning was as sharp as her sharp blade, and the atmosphere became solemn in an instant.
"Losing self-control?" Li did not panic. He calmly asked, "You mean that you have lost your mind and can't control your mind?"
"Yes."
"I've never had such a situation before."
"Even after getting drunk?"
"Even after getting drunk," Li said affirmatively, "I will never lose control of myself."
Jann. Zell smiled again, and the smile was extremely bright. "That's great," she said happily. "I knew I was right. I saw that you could use that kind of swordsmanship," he said, Jane. Zell sat in a chair and shook up in imitation of drunkenness. "What's the name of it, drunken sword?"
Li smiled and said, "Yes, drunken sword."
Jann. Zell sat up straight, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and continued, "When I see this way of fighting, I know that you absolutely drink a lot, but this is a dangerous thing after all. Even in some open arks, drinking is regarded as a dangerous attempt. You don't have to think too much. I don't want to stop you here, and I'm not going to interfere with your personal hobbies, because in my opinion, you don't seem to have too much trouble because of drinking, so you are a guy who can drink. You have a talent for this, but it doesn't mean that others also have like You have such a talent," Jane. Zell said slowly, "So in that environment just now, in front of so many young warriors, you should not use such swordsmanship, drunken swords. Such a strange, gorgeous and effective attack will definitely make those people yearn for it. This is a bad influence. They may try because of your strength. Go to drink, but not everyone has your talent. You are different from them. You know that.
"I understand."
"It's good that you can understand this. That's why I said that at the end. At that time, my face was very ugly," Jane. Zell touched his face with a wry smile, "I even felt that I must have looked extremely ugly at that time, like a crazy woman who went crazy because of jealousy. Obviously, he lost, but he finally hindered the continuation of the competition by cheating like that, and commented on you endlessly as a winner. If your path is evil, please forget it. At the same time, I sincerely apologize to you here and hope to get your forgiveness.
While saying this, Jan. Zell put her hands under the round table and lowered her head. She just sat in the chair and made a bow.
"Ah, apologize?" Li Weiwei frowned. At this time, he was completely confused: "It's unnecessary. After all, everyone has their own persistence."
"Yes, it's very necessary to apologize." James. Zell said seriously, "I hope I can get your understanding. After all, your path is still under exploration and is not smooth. It can't be regarded as a road, and it is doubtful whether it can be made in the end. Naturally, such a Taoist path can't be imitated and learned by future generations, and now it appears in front of everyone in an extremely powerful posture, impacting their thoughts. If you just see your strength, you are likely to be attracted by your strength, so as to give up your own path and go to imitate your path. The road."
"You think too much, will it be like this?"
"Yes, this is also the reason why I made wormwood bitter tea for you according to the ancient ceremony. You didn't win a simple victory. You won a phoenix lord. You still don't understand what this means. Warriors may worship you like a phoenix lord. People will always worship heroes, but I can't let them follow your path, because you are not a path. That's why I said that you are evil. I must guide the warriors of the spiritual clan, so I slandered your Tao. This is not the intention. I am very supportive and admire your bold exploration. For this, I must apologize and hope you can accept it.
"Cough, this is a little too solemn. I accept your apology."
"Very good, but just apologizing like this, I still can't show sincerity. So it's better to do this. I'll take such a thing as the sincerity of apology. I hope you like it." With that being said, Jane. Zell took out a thin pamphlet from the inner pocket of her shirt, put it on the round table, and pushed it in front of Lee.
"Is this?"
"Please open it and have a look."
Li picked up the pamphlet in front of him and opened it to read. The first few chapters of the booklet talked about the identification of plants, finding and planting methods. He quickly turned a few pages. The second half of the pamphlet was the brewing method of wormwood.
"This is my gift to you. I believe you have the ability to make this green fairy return to the universe. Seriously, whether it is a fairy or a devil, it will be a pity if it disappears with the Milky Way like this. I really want to taste its delicious food again. I hope that one day I can drink it. The wine you brewed.
"Maybe," Li put away the brochure and sighed, "I also hope to have such a day."
"There will be, believe me." James. Zell smiled cunningly and said, "I foresee the arrival of such a day."
"You are not a prophet."
"I am better than them. The prophet only foresees the future, and I can create the future."
