Chapter 48: Moon Toast

"Such a strong fishy smell?"

Song Yunyuan was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly frowned and looked towards the river.

As soon as he arrived here, he smelled a very strong fishy smell. He didn't pay much attention to it before, but now he felt that the smell was getting stronger and stronger.

It felt like there were countless dead fish piled up on the river bank.

But Song Yunyuan looked towards the river, the water was sparkling, and he didn't see any dead fish.

If there are no dead fish, where does the fishy smell come from?

Song Yunyuan was puzzled. After looking around with some doubt, he felt that the fishy smell seemed to be coming from the river.

After hesitating for a moment, Song Yunyuan did not continue to explore and turned to walk towards Anhe County.

By the time Song Yunyuan returned to Anhe County, it was getting dark.

"I've been in this world for quite a while. I didn't have the chance to eat any of the delicacies here because I had to maintain my image. Now I'm hungry."

Song Yunyuan touched his stomach and could now smell various aromas coming from the surroundings.

I just don’t know what the snacks in this world taste like.

Song Yunyuan returned to Anhe County and quickly found a restaurant in the city after looking around.
"Sir, do you want to work in a hotel or stay in a hotel?"

"What special dishes do you have in this restaurant?"

Song Yunyuan did not answer immediately after hearing this, but asked a question in return.

"Hey, sir, is this your first time in Anjiang County? The people of Anjiang County know our Jingyue Restaurant. The Jingyue Banquet in our restaurant is well known throughout the city!"

When the waiter heard what Song Yunyuan said, he immediately became excited and started talking to Song Yunyuan incessantly about the Moon Respect Banquet in their restaurant.

"The first thing to talk about at this Moon-Honoring Banquet is the Moon-Honoring Wine. It takes three years to brew it, and it needs to be buried for another twenty years before it can be consumed."

"Does it take so long to brew wine?"

Upon hearing this, Song Yunyuan looked at the waiter in surprise. Is this guy cheating people?
"Sir, you don't know that the process of making the moon-wine toast is so complicated. The yeast, grains, and rare items for brewing the wine need to be processed and dried many times before brewing the wine."

"If you ask me how this wine is brewed, I really don't know. This is the secret of the store."

"In addition, the other ingredients in the Jingyue Banquet are also extraordinary. They are all wild delicacies. These wild delicacies are picked by old hunters from nearby villages. They are selected and sent to Jingyue Restaurant."

The waiter kept talking, and Song Yunyuan couldn't help but feel moved.

"Well, then let's try this Moon-Honoring Feast you mentioned."

Song Yunyuan nodded and then walked upstairs.

"Okay, honored guest, please come up, but if you are alone, I recommend you to have a small Jingyue Banquet. The dishes are complete, but the portions will be a little smaller. What do you think?"

"Well, I'll follow your arrangements."

Song Yunyuan nodded. Indeed, if he ate alone, he might not be able to finish the entire table.

The waiter led the way and soon brought Song Yunyuan to the private room upstairs.

Although it is not a private room, it is surrounded by screens, with a small mountain and flowing water on one side, as well as some pleasant stringed instrument sounds, which makes it seem quite elegant.

After Song Yunyuan sat down, he casually glanced around and then waited for the waiter to serve the food.

The waiter didn't keep Song Yunyuan waiting for long, and soon came over with some fragrant dishes.

Not only were the dishes served extremely exquisitely, but the bowls and chopsticks on them also looked very special.

The bowls and chopsticks above are made of porcelain, and the firing process is very good. The porcelain is only a thin layer, and when you touch it with your palm, you can almost see the palm lines.

The green glaze patterns on it are extremely beautiful, with willows in the south of the Yangtze River and patterns of people farming that can be seen on it.

"Sir, this is the Moon Respecting Banquet."

Song Yunyuan nodded when he heard that, waved his hand to let the other party go, and then he started to taste it alone.

When the moon-wine is poured into the cup, a faint aroma of wine is first smelled.

Song Yunyuan moved his nose and smelled the aroma of the wine. After taking a sip, it felt a little spicy and mellow, and slowly slid into his throat.

Song Yunyuan closed his eyes and carefully smelled the aroma of the wine, then took another look at the delicacies in front of him.

What was placed in front of him seemed to be Hericium erinaceus. Song Yunyuan moved his chopsticks. The Hericium erinaceus was covered with thick soup. When he took a bite, the thick soup containing the mushroom overflowed directly.

Song Yunyuan's eyes were full of surprise.

He really didn't expect that the chefs here were so good at cooking.

The taste of this Hericium erinaceus seems to have been made to taste exactly as it should.

No wonder the waiter dared to boast like that just now, just this sip of wine and one Hericium erinaceus is already extremely delicious.

Thinking of this, Song Yunyuan couldn't help but stretch out his chopsticks to taste other delicacies again.

In just a few moments, Song Yunyuan had finished all the food and wine on the table, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

"Waiter, pay the bill."

A blush appeared on Song Yunyuan's face at this moment. The moon-wine itself was not very strong, but Song Yunyuan himself could not hold his liquor, so he felt a little shaky after drinking it.

"Sir, this is five taels and three hundred coins."

"Prepare a room for me."

Song Yunyuan took out the silver and handed it to the other party, then continued to give instructions.

"okay!"

The waiter took the silver and immediately prepared the room for Song Yunyuan.

After a while, Song Yunyuan came to the upper room prepared by the other party and sat down. The wine was somewhat intoxicating.

However, this feeling of being slightly drunk is within Song Yunyuan's tolerance range.

Song Yunyuan leaned against the window and admired the fireworks in the city for a moment. Then, unable to resist the sleepiness, he groped to the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

As Song Yunyuan fell asleep, wind rose up around him without any movement.

However, this wind was much weaker than the wind in the mountains. After the wind blew over Song Yunyuan, spiritual energy was generated.

Song Yunyuan, who was originally asleep, couldn't help but relax his brows a little at this moment.

The next day.

Song Yunyuan was startled awake by a burst of noise. He stood up suddenly and looked out the window. At this moment, the sky outside was already dimly lit with some light.

Song Yunyuan looked at the light outside, was stunned for a moment, and then slapped his forehead, "If I remember correctly, today is the day to lift the Dragon King, we can't miss it."

Before this, I had made an appointment with the other party to go and watch them carry the Dragon King.

Thinking of this, Song Yunyuan quickly called the waiter to bring some hot water. After quickly washing his face, he left the restaurant.
