Genjin: I don't want to fall in love with Yae Gongji

Chapter 392 Qianfeng Wine
"Well, it is said that [Thousand Winds Brew] is the first wine that the Mond people learned to brew."

"The reason why it is called this is that some people say it is because many raw materials have to be given up, and some people say it is because the taste of each brew is different."

"I remember it was recorded in books that the brewing methods were all weird and the taste of the product was difficult to control."

"This characteristic is too difficult for wine merchants to grasp, and they prefer to choose wines with stable recipes as products."

"So, it will be difficult for you to see [Qianfeng Fine Wine] in markets and taverns."

"Little Wolf, it seems that this bottle of wine was made by your parents."

Paimon felt that Miss Lisa had already explained that the process of making Qianfeng Wine was not easy, which proved that the thing in front of her was very important.

"So, it must be a very important thing... Ah, yes! Lei Ze, since your nose is very good, why don't you open it and smell it? Maybe you can learn something!"

Following Paimon's request, Lei Ze opened the bottle of Thousand Winds Wine and smelled the flavor.

"Hey, he smells so engaged... He seems to be smiling?"

"How is it?" Lisa asked.

Lei Ze told all the smells he smelled from Qianfeng Wine.

"Sweet, cold, a little bit bitter... I like it. Many kinds... all kinds of things, all together."

"However, it's different from the original taste..."

"Even Lei Ze can't tell the difference?"

"I'll smell it again."

Lei Ze smelled the Qianfeng wine on the table again, trying to smell other smells.

"Okay, Lei Ze, don't embarrass yourself. When a method doesn't work, what should we do?"

"Change...methods." Lei Ze replied.

"That's right, you have remembered Master's words."

"The Wine Festival is coming soon. People who have studied wine will gather in Mondstadt. Someone must know the details of [Qianfeng Wine]."

"Oh! That makes sense!"

Ying felt that Wendy would also appear by then. After all, as the god of wind, he would definitely appear because of the wine in such a lively festival.

"The opening ceremony is very lively. You can't miss the little cutie and little Paimon. Lei Ze also happened to go to the scene to inquire about it."

"Yeah. Try...ask more."

"We'll be with you, don't worry. The two of us...well...just like you were between Mr. Duraff and the pack!"

"It's a wonderful metaphor. It seems that Pamon has also learned the metaphor of Nasida, but we will accompany you well when the time comes."

"Okay, then, I'll go back first. I need to tell Lupika about the human parents."

"Well! See you at the opening ceremony!"

After Lei Ze said goodbye to everyone, he left the headquarters of the West Wind Knights and returned to the Running Wolf Territory alone.

"Seeing Lei Ze take the first step, as a master, I feel very gratified."

"You little cutie, you must be tired from running around with Lei Ze. Why don't you take a rest? Sister, can I get you a cup of tea?"

So the two of them sat down and rested as Lisa asked.

Lisa even poured a cup of tea for the two of them.

"By the way, did your trip go well?"

"Miss Lisa, our trip went well. We met the Grass God in Sumeru and learned some useful information." Paimon answered from the side.

"So that's it. It seems that there must be a lot of dangerous things happening. After all, I heard recently that Master Cao Shen has regained control of Xumi."

"Speaking of it, there are indeed many dangerous things in Xumi, but fortunately we have resolved them one by one, and we have made new friends."

So the two chatted with Lisa for a while, drank the tea in their hands, and felt that they had almost rested, so they left the headquarters of the West Wind Knights.

……

Two days later, the two came to the location of the opening ceremony and met Lei Ze.

Qin on the stage said to everyone in the audience. "Thank you for waiting. This year, the [Fine Wine Festival] has successfully kicked off."

“I hope that during this period, Mondstadt residents and other tourists from all over the world can share wine and experience the joy of harvest.”

"On the [Return of the Wind Day], we will hold a toast ceremony here to welcome the return of the wind god Barbatos."

"Let the wind lead!"

The residents of Mondstadt in the audience also said, "Let the wind lead you to these words!"

"Leize! So you've arrived."

"Well, there are so many...people..."

"Come on, let's sneak around and find someone!"

"Looking for...who?" Lei Ze asked.

"A singer. He is well-informed and loves to drink. Maybe he will know."

So the three found Wendy at a wine stall not far away.

"Singer——!"

"Long time no see. It's nice to see you." Ying greeted.

Hearing the familiar call, Wendy turned around and said to the two of them, "Hi Traveler, Paimon, hello, haha, I knew I would see you in this wonderful festival."

"It's so nice to say, I won't be deceived. The wonderful you say means crazy drinking."

"Hahaha, don't say that, this festival can bring you far more than that."

After saying this, Wendy realized that there was someone else next to her.

"Oh? Oh, isn't this Lei Ze? How are you doing recently?"

"Fortunately, I have something to ask..."

"Yes, Lei Ze has something to ask you. Singer, you know [Thousand Winds Wine], right?" Paimon asked.

"Well, I miss that name so much. Let me think about it...when was the last time I heard it?"

"Leize's parents left him a box with half a bottle of wine inside. The label said [Qianfeng Fine Wine]."

"I heard that it is a very historical wine, and the production method is very ancient... I came to ask you." Paimao explained the situation at the side.

"It smells good. But I don't know what it is."

After listening to these descriptions, Wendy also knew the general situation.

"So that's it. Do you want to know how [Thousand Winds Fine Wine] is made? Then you asked the right person again. I know a ballad, and its name...well, it happens to be called [Thousand Winds Fine Wine]."

"I originally wanted to save it until the [Returning Day] to read it, but for the sake of my friends, I didn't care about it. How about it, do you want to read it to you now?"

"The ballads... are not easy to understand. But you have to listen."

"That's a good answer, then I'll get started."

[We sealed these things into buckets and waited, waited, and waited for the wind to rise.Put wax on the mouth of the bottle of fine wine. The south wind is gentle and the north wind is strong. 】

[What does fine wine taste like?Mond's name, his own dream.What exactly ferments into fine wine?Courage to explore, tenderness to love. 】

[The duty of guardianship remains the same as before, accompanied by thousands of blessings, the sour juice becomes sweet, the rough barrel is moistened, waiting, waiting, waiting for the wind to rise. 】

"Hey, thank you for your applause. Did the song just now help you?"

"It's very similar to wine. It's a little sweet and dizzy. I don't understand the meaning."

"Don't talk about Lei Ze, I feel the same way! It is indeed talking about brewing, but there are no details at all!" Paimon said he didn't understand either.

"Haha, hazy and romantic, this is also the characteristic of Mond's poetry."

"If I really want to talk about the ingredients for brewing...well...well...[The courage to explore, the tenderness of love, the perseverance to protect, thousands of winds...blessings...]"

"I can't tell what exactly it means!"

"Hey, singer, I see you know everything. Can you give me some tips?"
