The kiwi wine is almost ready. Although it hasn't fully fermented, it already has a strong alcoholic flavor.

Chen Yang and Hou Yu brewed a lot at once, intending for everyone to drink it slowly before the spring, but now it has a new use.

"Is it really useful? Don't waste it."

Hou Yu, who had come from the island, said with some heartache.

Chen Yang called Hou Yu after leaving the island. Upon hearing that they could finally drink in the Micro World today, everyone on the island rushed over, including Hou Yu's parents.

"It tastes good," Chen Yang said after taking the first bite.

Everyone tried a little, and it was indeed very delicious.

Unlike other spirits, kiwi wine is not spicy; it's full of rich fruity aroma, mellow, and refreshing. In fact, the nutritional value and health benefits of kiwi wine far surpass those of wine, but people simply prefer wine nowadays.

"What a pity, they're going to be ruined by a bunch of monkeys," Yun Hu said. He usually enjoys a couple of drinks when he has nothing to do. The kiwis in the Micro Realm are of very high quality, much cleaner than the fruit wines he's had before.

"Let's all have a little drink tonight, and next time we'll brew other kinds of wine. We didn't have much experience this time, so it didn't turn out very well, and the fermentation time wasn't long enough," Chen Yang said.

As the sun slowly set in the microcosm, everyone put down what they were doing and gathered around the table, where the fire provided them with light and illumination.

"I heard a noise, it's probably those monkeys," Ye Wu said.

Ye Wu's ears are just as sharp as the nose of a lucky person; he can always hear sounds before anyone else.

"Then let's all start drinking! Don't hold back today, eat and drink to your heart's content," Chen Yang said with a smile.

Tonight is the first time everyone is drinking together in the micro-world, and Chen Yang even specially killed a chicken and a duck for it, which can be described as quite extravagant. Some of the dried meat and jam he had stored were also brought out.

Ye Wu ate the chicken leg with gusto, completely lacking manners. Xiao Qing kicked him several times, hinting that he should pay attention to his image, but he simply didn't understand.

"Come on, let's drink!"

Guo Zifeng stood up and addressed everyone, and everyone else stood up as well, raising their glasses. Their movements were especially noticeable in the flames.

"It's a pity I can only have two drinks." Yun Hu smacked his lips, seemingly still wanting more.

"Here, have these two glasses. I'm a little allergic to alcohol." Li Ye handed over his glass.

Her behavior and actions surprised everyone else. Hou Yu and his parents watched this scene with great joy, but Yun Hu was somewhat confused.

Aside from his encounter with Li Ye during the cheetah adventure, Li Ye was almost always on the island, so he wasn't very surprised. After thanking him, he drank Li Ye's drink.

Grandpa Yun slapped him on the head, leaving Yun Hu somewhat bewildered.

"I'd like a sip too."

Chen Liu stared longingly at the kiwi wine on the table. There was also a glass in front of him, but it contained kiwi juice that had been specially squeezed for him.

Chen Yang glanced at Ye Wen, who was chatting with Xiao Qing and hadn't noticed them.

He secretly switched his cup with Chen Liu's, and then said, "You are only allowed to drink one sip."

Xiao Chen nodded obediently, then took a small sip, and immediately frowned. Although the kiwi wine was very sweet, the taste of alcohol was still a bit too much for him.

Chen Yang smiled, then handed him the kiwi juice, saying, "This one tastes better, doesn't it?"

Chen Liu nodded and said, "I just wanted to try the taste, but my mother won't let me drink it. She even cried once when she got drunk."

She cried?

Chen Yang glanced at Ye Wen. This must be related to Chen Liu's father. Abandoning such a well-behaved child and such a good wife, he really is a complete scumbag.

Everyone was in high spirits today, as they were able to eat and drink to their heart's content, which was a rare treat.

This is completely different from a real banquet. Nobody has any ulterior motives; the most important thing is to eat. Being able to eat to your heart's content is the greatest happiness.

As night deepened, everyone prepared to leave after a satisfying meal.

"Leave some dried meat and fruit on the table, don't eat it all," Chen Yang instructed. "Ye Wu, please shut up."

Caught red-handed with a piece of jerky in his mouth, Ye Wu awkwardly scratched his head and decisively exited the micro-world.

Everyone gradually left the micro-realm. Chen Yang was the last to leave. After he and the European Emperor disappeared from the micro-realm at the same time, several dark figures slowly approached from the perimeter of the camp.

These dark figures easily scaled the fence, avoiding the fence and the pottery shards on the ground, and entered the Xindu camp.

After they entered, more shadowy figures followed them into the camp. As they drew nearer, the firelight illuminated them, revealing their true forms—they were indeed monkeys, specifically macaques.

More than 30 macaques entered the camp, and that's not a lot. The macaque population can sometimes exceed 100, so it's possible that many macaques didn't survive the winter.

After the macaques climbed in, they darted around everywhere, but Chen Yang and his group had already put away the valuables, so the macaques had nothing to break.

The macaques were still quite afraid of the fire and kept a certain distance from it. However, although the table was close to the fire, it was still within the animals' safe distance. Several monkeys climbed onto the table, grabbed the food on it, and ate it.

After they finished eating, they set their sights on the two large jars of kiwi wine on the table. One of the macaques even imitated humans, picking up a cup and scooping out a cup of wine from the jar.

The macaque sniffed it, then took a sip.

"Wah wah~ squeak~"

It excitedly waved its arms and legs, calling out to its companions.

The other macaques also came over and imitated the first macaque's actions to drink.

The macaques drinking kiwi wine was a truly rare sight. They fought over cups to drink from, and those without cups simply used their hands. Their calls echoed throughout the camp.

The macaque troop became excited, waving their arms and legs and shouting loudly. Their tracks were everywhere—on the ground, on the table, on the roof.

The two large jars of wine were completely drunk by more than thirty macaques, who even licked the bottoms clean.

The macaques began to lose their footing, and one even tumbled off the roof and died. But none of the macaques noticed it.

Under the influence of alcohol, the excited macaques frolicked wildly in the camp, having a great time.

Gradually, the noise in the camp subsided, and one after another, macaques collapsed. Then, like a chain reaction, most of the macaques fell down.

The remaining macaques, who hadn't drunk much, finally panicked. They tried to drag their companion away, but they couldn't move him at all. Instead, they were beaten by their drunken companions. Finally, as dawn was about to break, these macaques were forced to leave, and one or two that had woken up also ran away.

The other macaques slept scattered throughout the camp.

After the sun rose over the plains, a few more macaques woke up, woke up some of their companions, and then ran away. The rest were either too drunk or had a low alcohol tolerance and could not be woken up no matter what.

When the hands of Chen Yang's watch, which he had placed in the wooden house, reached eight o'clock, a series of humans simultaneously appeared in the micro-world.

"Quick, catch these monkeys!" Hou Yu said first, then quickly grabbed the one closest to him.

The remaining monkeys were all caught without exception and then thrown into a room inside the house. As for the one that fell to its death, it was left to Yun Hu to deal with.

This time, they captured a total of eighteen macaques alive.

I just said yesterday that I would add an extra chapter if the donations exceeded 1000 or the daily recommendation votes exceeded 100, and today there have been donations. I'm currently working hard on my writing and I don't know whether I should be happy or not.
