“This is a hundred-year-old purple jade grapevine. Not to mention in the real world, even in the secret realm it is considered a rare spiritual plant!” Cui Zhidong’s face was filled with regret, and he kept muttering to himself: “It’s all ruined, all ruined, a hundred-year-old spiritual plant…”
Looking at Cui Zhidong's appearance, Xu Feng couldn't bear it and took out a bunch of purple jade grapes and handed it to him.
"Actually, this purple jade grape was transplanted by me. Don't worry, the place where I transplanted it has strong yin energy, and the purple jade grape grows well!" Xu Feng said in a low voice.
"You, you were transplanted away?" Cui Zhidong's face was full of surprise. He stared at Xu Feng's face for a long time, and then his gaze moved to the bunch of purple jade grapes handed to him.
After a moment, Cui Zhidong pushed the grapes that Xu Feng handed over with his hand, and a relieved smile appeared on his face: "It's good to be alive, it's good to survive!"
It seems that Cui Zhidong is really sad about the extinction of the Purple Jade Grape, not because he doesn't have the materials he needs to make wine.
Cui Zhidong seemed to have thought of something, and he couldn't help laughing. He pointed at Xu Feng and said, "No wonder you asked me from the beginning if I wanted to sell the formula of Purple Jade Wine. It turns out that the Purple Jade grapes were transplanted by you. Hahaha!"
After laughing, Cui Zhidong took out a square of white paper from his arms and handed it to Xu Feng, saying, "This is the method of brewing the purple jade wine you have always dreamed of. Although you are not a winemaker and do not know how to brew wine, and cannot brew real spiritual wine, but according to the method above, it is not a problem to brew some fine wine."
"When you master the winemaking technique in the future, you will be able to brew real spiritual wine. In this way, those purple jade grapes can really play a role!" Cui Zhidong sighed and stuffed the brewing formula of purple jade wine into Xu Feng's hands.
"You are..." Xu Feng showed a surprised expression on his face. He wanted to spend a lot of money to buy it before, but Cui Zhidong refused as if the recipe was a family heirloom. Now he is giving it away for free. The difference between the two is so huge that Xu Feng was a little at a loss for a moment.
"Just like you said, without the Purple Jade Grape, the brewing method of the Purple Jade Wine is just a piece of waste paper!" Cui Zhidong sighed and said, "But this is my hard work after all, I don't want to throw it away like this. Since you have obtained the Purple Jade Grape, I will give you this brewing method, which can be regarded as a waste utilization."
When he said the words "waste utilization", Cui Zhidong showed a self-deprecating look on his face.
"Actually, there is no need to do that. At worst, I can provide you with purple jade grapes in the future and you can buy them from me!" Xu Feng waved his hand.
"Take it, it's just some small stuff to satisfy your appetite. If you really brew spiritual wine in the future, remember to give me a hundred or eighty jars." Cui Zhidong said with a smile.
"Okay, let's go back. If we go further, we will reach the area where the necromancer was before. Now most of the zombies are gathered there. It will be too dangerous for us to go any deeper!" Xu Feng said after taking a look into the distance.
The area where the necromancer was located was originally the center of the detonation, so the remaining negative energy was also the final destination. Therefore, these undead creatures in the Dead Man's Ditch relied on instinct and almost all rushed to this area. With Xu Feng's current characteristics of "Black Iron Body (enemy of the undead)", once he got close, it might cause a tide of zombies.
"Go back, go back. If I hadn't been thinking about the purple jade grape vines, I wouldn't even come here..." Cui Zhidong looked at the withered vines on the ground and couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.
…
The children were laughing and making noises, and occasionally screaming. It sounded very noisy, but to Xi Juan it sounded like the most beautiful music.
At this moment, a staff member of the orphanage walked quickly towards Xi Juan and whispered something in her ear. Xi Juan's originally kind eyes suddenly became sharp. At this time, a clue about the identity of the leader of the Gintama Ring organization could be seen from her.
"You mean, the Blood Clan Baron was ambushed by assassins from the Mist Organization as soon as he entered Songtao City?" Xi Juan asked in a low voice while looking at the children playing in the distance, "But not only did the Blood Clan Baron not die, but he also wiped out all the assassins who ambushed him?"
Without waiting for the staff member to answer, Xi Juan smiled playfully and chuckled, "Haha, it seems that we all underestimated Baron Hawke's strength... Isn't the Mist Organization known as the best in intelligence? How could such a mistake occur? It really doesn't live up to its reputation!"
"Have you found out who has what the baron wants?" Xi Juan asked softly.
"Not yet!" In the cold weather, beads of sweat appeared on the staff's forehead. He continued, "However, after Baron Hawke got off the plane, he did not return to the hotel to rest. Instead, he went to a residential area and stayed there for a whole morning. After that, he left and was attacked by the assassins of the Mist Organization on the way back to the hotel!"
"You mean, the guy who has the blood transformation potion that Baron Hawke wants lives in that community?" Xi Juan laughed and nodded, "Have you found out who Baron Hawke is looking for in that community?"
"Director, there are 367 households in the community, with a total of more than 1,000 people. It will take some time to check them one by one!" The staff member broke out in a cold sweat again.
"Check them one by one?" Xi Juan frowned and could not help but scolded, "Are you all pig-brains? The only ones who can get the bloodline potion can be the secret realm apostles. Why are you checking those ordinary people? Just find out how many secret realm apostles live in that community, and then check them one by one! Especially those apostles who have just been promoted from level zero to level one!"
The staff's eyes lit up. As a result, the workload was greatly reduced. The task that was originally estimated to take a week could now be completed in two or three days at most.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Yes, Dean, I'll do it right away!"
"I want to know the result before dinner this afternoon!" Xi Juan whispered, "Also, keep an eye on Baron Hawke's whereabouts and report to me at any time!"
The staff left in a hurry. Xi Juan looked at the energetic children in the distance, and a kind smile reappeared on her face. However, underneath this smile, there was an unconcealable greed.
"What a young life! How enviable..."
