Chapter 57 Monkey Wine



Zhang Xudong stood there looking at the corpses of the two old foxes, his face full of reluctance.

The fur of these two foxes is so beautiful, and their tails are shiny and silky. They would be great for making scarves, which are comfortable to the touch and keep warm.

I used the remaining fox fur to make a waistcoat for grandma, which would definitely keep her warm in winter.

But looking at the little fox squatting at his feet, one claw grabbing his trouser leg, Zhang Xudong thought for a moment and decided that it would be a bit unkind to skin someone else's parents in front of their child.

Besides, in the next ten years or so, the world will be one where the poor are in the right and the rich will suffer, so we'd better keep a low profile.

Zhang Xudong gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and took out a hoe from the space.

Dig a hole and bury it. Dig the hole deeper. If we can't get it, no one else can get it.

After Zhang Xudong buried the two foxes, he stood in front of the raised earth and muttered, "Dust to dust, ashes to ashes. Return to where you came from."

Don't blame me for not avenging you. There's no right or wrong in the mountains. Survival of the fittest is the destiny of all living things.

If you want revenge, just transform yourself into a leopard in your next life and go looking for trouble with lynxes!

I've taken your baby away. As long as it wants to stay with me, I'll let it grow up safely."

After saying that, Zhang Xudong put away his hoe and said to the little fox, "Come on, little fox, follow me and enjoy the good life."

The little fox looked at Zhang Xudong with a puzzled expression, pointing at Zhang Xudong's hand and jumping up and down.

Zhang Xudong thought for a moment and took out the hoe. The little fox leaped out, looked at Zhang Xudong's face, then at the hoe in his hand. He tilted his head as if thinking about something.

Zhang Xudong looked at the cute and silly look of the little fox, and wondered if Zhang Xiyan would still take care of the two puppies if there was another little fox at home?

Zhang Xudong put away his hoe and called the little fox to go back.

When the little fox saw Zhang Xudong was about to leave, it jumped onto Zhang Xudong's left shoulder, grabbed Zhang Xudong's hair with one claw and pointed in one direction with the other claw.

"You little fox, what are you going to do now? Do you think of me as your free thug?" Zhang Xudong muttered as he walked in the direction the little fox pointed.

"Little fox, we already have two puppies at home, and we'll have chicks in a few days. You better not do those sneaky things in the future. If you get caught, you'll be skinned and put into a hot pot."

Zhang Xudong walked and talked to the little fox foolishly.

After walking for more than thirty minutes, Zhang Xudong smelled the fragrant aroma of wine.

The little fox jumped off Zhang Xudong's shoulder and ran forward quickly, with Zhang Xudong following closely. The aroma of this wine was so tempting, could it be the legendary stuff? Zhang Xudong was full of anticipation.

After running about another five or six hundred meters, I saw the little fox jumping and dancing under a big tree that was so thick that three or four people could hug it. The smell of wine in the air became stronger.

Zhang Xudong walked to the big tree and looked up. The old tree had sparse branches and leaves, and looked like it had lost its vitality.

On the tree trunk, more than two meters above the ground, there is a hole with a diameter of more than 60 centimeters. The aroma of wine keeps emanating from the hole.

Zhang Xudong's eyes lit up when he saw it, gleaming brightly. Wow, this is definitely monkey wine!

This tree hole is probably where the monkeys stored their food. They probably had enough to eat and forgot about this place. The fruit inside fermented into wine over time.

Zhang Xudong hurriedly jumped onto a large branch below the cave entrance and looked into the tree hole.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Zhang Xudong nearly choked to death as he poked his head into the tree hole. From outside, the aroma was wine, but inside the tree hole, the flavor was complex. Astringent, sweet, and the sour aroma of fermenting wine. It was incredibly sour and refreshing.

Zhang Xudong quickly moved his head out of the hole. It would be a big loss if he was choked to death by the smell of alcohol before he could even drink it.

Zhang Xudong took two deep breaths of fresh air before he finally calmed down. After thinking about it, Zhang Xudong decided not to look at it anymore and put it into the space first.

Zhang Xudong sorted out several stainless steel barrels in the Space Supermarket and the large vats used for pickling vegetables at home and used them to store wine.

Zhang Xudong, who was ready, reached his hand into the tree hole and carefully collected all the things in the tree hole into the space and placed them in the prepared bucket and tank.

Zhang Xudong looked at the contents of the bucket and the jar, and felt that he couldn't drink it.

In each container, a thick layer of fermented or unfermented fruit floats on the upper layer, the middle layer is turbid wine, and the bottom layer is thick fruit puree.

It seems that if you want to drink this wine, you have to filter it and let it settle first. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry!

Just as Zhang Xudong was lamenting that he couldn't drink the monkey wine right away, the little fox jumped onto Zhang Xudong's shoulder in a panic.

The little fox grabbed Zhang Xudong's hair with one paw and shook it, pointed the other paw into the distance, and made a sharp "wow" sound from its mouth.

Zhang Xudong quickly looked up and saw the branches and leaves of the trees in the distance shaking, and black spots moving in the treetops, approaching here quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the black spots were not far away, and the monkeys appeared one by one.

Zhang Xudong touched the little fox's head helplessly: "Little thing, do you know that this is their thing?

You must have been bullied by them before, so you asked me to get their wine, right? You are such a little fox.

Zhang Xudong jumped down from the tree and stood in front of it, waiting for the monkeys to arrive. He couldn't run away. These beasts were even more vengeful than wolves.

If you run away, they'll chase you home and secretly demolish your house. They'll kill all your livestock and crops, leaving them all dead.

So today we must either scare them, give them something satisfying, or kill them so that they are scared away.

While Zhang Xudong was thinking, the group of monkeys were already in front of him.

A tall and strong monkey stood in front, and eighty or ninety monkeys were jumping and patting their chests behind it, roaring angrily at Zhang Xudong and the little fox.
