The content of the last few pages of "Ben Ming Ji Shi" is actually about how to mix cocktails.
The Underworld House only stipulates that any living being that enters it must choose a bottle of wine to drink, but it does not say that they can only drink one bottle of wine.
The reason why there is a saying that drinking two kinds of wine will lead to death is that these magic wines contain magic essences with different properties. After drinking the two kinds of wine, the properties will inevitably conflict and cause great harm to the body.
However, if you mix several kinds of magic wine with different properties together, so that their properties are balanced or check and balance each other, there will be no problem in drinking several or more kinds of wine.
Of course, drinking too much is not a good idea, because the magic essence in some magic wines is so strong that even a drop can be fatal.
Not to mention a human body, even a demon body couldn't bear it.
The blood rose chosen by the demon spirit before is considered to be a milder demon spirit wine here. The blood rose only absorbs the demon spirit's blood, and the absorbed demon spirit blood is rather mixed. Therefore, the wine brewed with the blood rose does not contain a very strong demon spirit essence, and does not have much impact on the body.
Unfortunately, the cocktail-mixing techniques recorded above only explain the general principles and some cocktail recipes, but do not record the characteristics of each type of wine or the strength of the magic essence.
However, for Li Xiu, these things are enough. He only needs to drink one glass of blended wine to fulfill the agreement, and he does not need to drink the whole bottle of wine. This is also an advantage.
He wrote down all the following contents and then put the book back to its original place.
"What's your name?" Li Xiu was already confident that he could leave the dark house, and he felt a lot more relaxed.
"You can call me the boss lady." The woman upstairs obviously didn't want to reveal her true identity.
"How long have you been trapped here?" Li Xiu asked comfortably, leaning back on the sofa.
He now knows that this woman who claims to be the boss's wife cannot harm him. As long as he does not commit suicide and does not go upstairs, the woman will not be able to harm him.
It is introduced in "Benming Chronicles" that the evil spirit who becomes the spirit of the underworld house can only stay on the second floor to guard the underworld house until the wine in the wine cabinet is drunk up, and then she can be free.
However, what the spirit of the Underworld House is actually guarding is not the magic wine on the first floor, but something on the second floor. However, what that thing is is not recorded in "The Underworld Records".
I guess the person who wrote this book doesn’t know what’s on the second floor.
It is very likely that the woman on the second floor was trapped on the second floor and became the spirit of the underworld just to get that thing.
The demon spirit that just came up to the second floor probably also wanted to steal something like that.
"Does this have anything to do with you?" The proprietress's voice turned cold, and it was obvious that she really disliked this topic.
"Madam, how about we make a deal?" Li Xiu said with a smile, "I'll help you leave the Dark House, and you do me a small favor."
"You should think about how to leave." The proprietress suddenly felt something was wrong and asked in surprise, "How do you know this place is called the Underworld House?"
“Isn’t it written very clearly in the Benming Chronicles?” Li Xiu said.
"Can you really understand magic runes?" the proprietress asked in surprise.
"Although it is much more complicated than our human writing, it is just a kind of writing after all. It is not difficult to learn. Thank you for helping me pick out that picture book for learning Chinese. It made learning much easier for me." Li Xiu told the truth.
"You mean to say that you didn't understand magic runes before, but you learned it just by reading that book?" The proprietress didn't believe Li Xiu's words at all.
How could there be such a thing in the world? Just by reading some simple books, one can learn a language, and a complex language like Magical Script.
Each symbol in the magic code sometimes has many meanings, and the grammar is very complicated, more complicated than many cipher texts. She doesn't believe that anyone can understand the magic code in just a dozen hours with just these.
“Although I haven’t fully understood it, knowing some common symbols and grammar is enough. I don’t plan to become an expert in magic words, so there’s no need to learn it in depth,” said Li Xiu.
The proprietress was silent. She didn't believe that Li Xiu had learned it in such a short time.
But it makes no difference whether she has learned it now or not. Since Li Xiu can understand the magic runes, he naturally knows what the Underworld House is. It is useless for her to say anything.
"Even if you have seen the art of cocktail mixing, it is still useless. The bodies of demons may be able to withstand the wines mixed, but as a human being, even if it is the wine mixed by demons, it can still take your life." After a long while, the voice of the proprietress came again.
"That's my own business. If I can get out alive, are you willing to cooperate with me?" Li Xiu said indifferently.
He does not just have a human body, there is also a young demon living inside him. Even if there is no young demon, he has light energy himself, which is actually almost the same as a demon body.
Otherwise, he had drunk almost half a bottle of blood rose before, and an ordinary human trial-taker would have died long ago.
"How do you want to cooperate?" the proprietress asked thoughtfully.
"I'll ask someone or a demon to come to the Underworld House to drink so that you can escape as soon as possible. In exchange, if I encounter an enemy that is difficult to deal with in the Black Death City, I hope you can help me." Li Xiu said.
The Killing God Tablet brought him in this time and almost took his life. Who knows what kind of trouble the Killing God Tablet can cause in the future.
Li Xiu made preparations in advance. No matter how much trouble the God of Death Tablet caused, it could only send Li Xiu to the Black Death City.
With the protection of the proprietress of the Underworld House, Li Xiu is invincible.
"Since you can understand Ben Ming's notes, you should know that I can't leave the second floor." The proprietress chuckled and said, "But if you dare to go up to the second floor, I can agree to it. I'm just afraid you don't have the courage."
"I really don't dare to go up to the second floor, but as the spirit of the Underworld House, as long as I enter the Underworld House, even if I am on the first floor, it should not be difficult for you to save my life, such as the identity of the bartender." Li Xiu said lightly.
"If you want to be a bartender, I can certainly help you do that," said the proprietress.
"Hmph, it seems you have no sincerity at all. In that case, there's no need for us to continue talking." Li Xiu said as he stood up and walked behind the bar, taking down a few bottles of wine from the wine cabinet.
The first bottle Li Xiu took down was Gentle Lover, which was the bottle of wine that belonged to him and he was going to drink.
This is also a relatively mild wine, but Li Xiu is not sure whether it can withstand drinking with Blood Rose.
However, as long as it is blended with several other types of wine, the effect of harmonizing and balancing the properties can be achieved, so that the impact of the magic spirit essence on the body will not be so great.
He took out the tools for mixing cocktails from the cabinet under the bar, used a wine measuring cup to scoop a certain amount of Gentle Lover into the shaker, and then opened a bottle of Black Cardinal.
As soon as the black-robed cardinal opened the bottle, black light immediately emerged from the mouth of the bottle. The essence of the devil in the wine was so strong that light energy had already overflowed from the wine.
Li Xiu took half a spoonful with a spoon and added it into the shaker, then put the lid of the cardinal back on the wine cabinet.
Then there was a bottle of "Purgatory Angel". Once the lid was opened, the bloody light almost turned the entire room blood red.
This time Li Xiu only took one drop. According to Ben Ming's notes, even a top-level demon spirit would probably die on the spot if it drank a sip of the Purgatory Angel.
Li Xiu took a few more bottles of wine, some of which were faintly fluorescent, some were shining brightly, and some were almost dim.
After pouring several types of wine into the shaker, Li Xiu closed the lid, grabbed the shaker and started shaking it to allow the wine to be fully mixed and react in the shaker.
Li Xiu didn't know what the technique was, and it wasn't introduced in Ben Ming's notes. Li Xiu just shook it in a way that allowed them to be fully mixed.
This shaker is not made of ordinary metal, but is made of a black crystal. It looks a bit transparent, but you can't see clearly what's inside.
But after shaking, the various lights inside collided and flashed brilliantly, more violent than fireworks, like the collision of nebulae.
Li Xiu was a little surprised because he felt the terrifying energy fluctuations in the shaker. Fortunately, the shaker shielded the energy fluctuations inside, otherwise the energy fluctuations alone would probably be enough to shatter him to pieces.
"Is it really okay to drink such a strong energy?" Li Xiu kept wondering in his heart, but he had no other choice.
When the brilliant light in the shaker gradually neutralized and turned into a light red, Li Xiu knew it should be ready.
Pour the wine into the glass. It was a light red color, but it had a very strong aroma.
This glass of wine is called Redemption, and it is one of the recipes for blended wine recorded in this Hades Chronicle.
"You actually managed to mix Redemption. Congratulations." The proprietress' tone was full of joking: "It's a pity that you don't know who this glass of Redemption is for."
"Oh, who else should share this wine?" Li Xiu asked, looking at the light red liquid in the glass.
"Do you really think that drinking the blended wine will be fine? Without the support of a special physique, you will still die even if you drink it. This cup of Redemption was specially prepared by the previous bartender for the Dark Knight King of the Shining Demon Spirit. The Dark Knight King drank this cup of Redemption and used its energy to temper his body and mind, breaking through the shackles and becoming a super spirit. You are just a small E-level trialist. How will you die after drinking Redemption? I really want to know."
"I hope I can satisfy your curiosity." Li Xiu picked up the Redemption and drank it all in one gulp.
He had already chosen the wine and it was impossible to change it, and there was no need to change it. The wines made from other recipes might not be much better than this glass of redemption.
The light red fluorescent liquid flowed down the throat into the stomach, and a strong aroma of wine also filled Li Xiu's mouth and nasal cavity.
The next second, Li Xiu felt a force radiating from his stomach to his entire body, making him feel as if his entire body was burning in fire.
In fact, his entire body was glowing with a flaming glow, as if he were bathed in flames.
"Naive little cutie, not everyone can be redeemed. The strong are redeemed because they are worthy of being redeemed. For the weak, redemption is often a more horrible disaster." The proprietress' voice was full of contempt.
But before long, the proprietress's voice changed from contempt to surprise, and then from surprise to disbelief.
The fiery glow on Li Xiu's body gradually faded, revealing Li Xiu's true appearance. His skin was glowing with a crystal luster, as if it had been baptized by holy light.
Every strand of hair was crystal clear, as if made of gemstone, and his whole body radiated an incredible holy light.
When the light completely disappeared, Li Xiu had become like an angel bathed in holy light. He became spotless and clean as if he did not belong to this world.
"You..." The proprietress was so shocked that she couldn't speak. It was incredible that an E-level trial-taker could drink a cup of redemption and be fine.
Not to mention an E-level trial-taker, even an E-level glorious demon spirit would probably not be able to drink a cup of redemption and remain unscathed.
"What a great wine." Li Xiu exclaimed sincerely, because of this glass of wine, the quality of his embryo actually reached 2.0 directly. He didn't know why it was not promoted to D level.
He felt that this cup of redemption was not as powerful as the proprietress said. It should not be possible for the energy to allow a demon spirit to become a super spirit directly.
It is estimated that the Dark Knight King is already close to becoming a super-spiritual being, but he just lacks an opportunity, which allows him to become a super-spiritual being directly because of a cup of redemption.
All the unused wine was put back into the wine cabinet.
He only needed one glass of the blended wine, he didn't need to drink the whole bottle, and he was able to get out.
Li Xiu had no intention of leaving, so he took the gentle lover down again and wanted to make a second cup.
How could he only drink one glass of such good wine? If he could drink another glass, he would be able to be promoted to Class D.
If I drink a few more glasses, maybe I can rocket from E level to S level today, and maybe I will even have a chance to become super spiritual.
Li Xiu mixed another cup of Redemption using the same method as before.
But when he raised the glass to drink again, the wine flowed out of the glass but did not flow into his mouth, and disappeared at the mouth of the glass.
Summoning a demon to drink, the result was the same.
"Can't I have a refill?" Li Xiu was extremely disappointed, and Chao Ling's dream was instantly shattered.
"You are really greedy, but I like it." The proprietress said with a smile: "If you could have a second cup, these devil wines would have been drunk by those extremely terrifying beings long ago, and there would be no chance for you to have a turn."
"What a pity." Li Xiu thought to himself that although he couldn't drink the second glass, he could still drink for free.
Just like the demon spirit before, he can give the wine he opened to Li Xiu to drink. If he meets other demon spirits coming to drink in the future, he can just drink for free.
The prerequisite is that he can first save his life from those evil spirits, otherwise it would be bad if he didn’t get to drink the wine and lost his life.
"Goodbye, boss lady." After packing up his things, Li Xiu turned and walked towards the door.
"Wait a minute." The lady boss called Li Xiu and said, "You just mentioned cooperation, and I agreed."
"If I don't go upstairs, can you save my life?" Li Xiu stopped and asked.
"If you don't go upstairs, it's impossible for me to help you kill the enemy, but I can save your life. After all, I am the proprietress of the Underworld House. If I don't want you to die here, no one can take your life." The proprietress paused and asked, "When are you going to bring people to drink?"
"Come when you find someone." Li Xiu said and pushed the door open and walked out without wasting time with the proprietress.
As soon as he went out, Li Zhengzheng wanted to pick up the magic core on the ground, but suddenly his eyes went dark and he returned to his room.
"How come you came out so soon!" Li Xiu muttered as he got up from the ground.
The tablet of the God of Death, who was lying dead, suddenly jumped up, as if in disbelief, and circled around Li Xiu again and again.
"How could you possibly get out alive?" The Killer God Tablet couldn't help but write down this question.
This time, Li Xiu was rough with the tablet of the God of Death. After grabbing it with his hand, he placed it on the table. He patted the top of the tablet like he was patting a child's head and said, "Child, next time something good like this happens, remember to send me over first."
After saying that, he left the tablet of the God of Death in a daze and went to pick up the things scattered on the ground.
Although the things I brought back were only a part of them, they were all top-notch.
The talent gems, skill rings and magic rings were all brought back, and some of the brilliant magic cores were also brought back.
Li Xiu didn't even pick up the Brilliant Magic Core. He directly summoned out the Black Death Demon King and let it eat it itself.
Li Xiu only picked up the talent gems, skill rings and magic rings, and put them into his own small treasury.
There were still quite a lot left from the last time, and this time he got so many again. Li Xiu has already started thinking about how to make these things shine in the Magic Spirit Competition and then sell them at a high price.
After Li Xiu packed up his things, he went out to find Chu Jun. He wanted to ask Chu Jun how he was promoted to D-level and why he had not been promoted to D-level even though he already had the quality of a 2.0 embryo.
"You are the fucking child, your whole family are children..." After Li Xiu left, the Killing God tablet finally reacted and started to complain violently. The words on the tablet flowed as fast as an advertisement.
"Someone is actually planning to hold a Magic Spirit Contest? Who is this Lord of the City of Light? How dare he do such a thing?" When the tall girl with a busty figure at a young age saw the news online, her face was full of surprise.
"He must be some fool who doesn't know his place." A cute girl who was slightly shorter than her at the side said with disdain, curling her lips.
"Don't say that. He did what I wanted to do but couldn't do. I think the Lord of the City of Light is a very respectable person." said the girl with long legs and big breasts.
When the cute girl heard her say this, her eyes suddenly lit up: "Qing Yi, why don't we go participate in the Magic Spirit Competition?"
"Isn't this bad? If we participate in the Magic Spirit Competition, wouldn't that be bullying?" Li Qingyi hesitated.
The cute girl Bai Ying smiled and blinked her big eyes and said, "Isn't this what you have always wanted to do? Only if you go, this Magic Spirit Competition can be held. Otherwise, that stupid Lord of Light will probably destroy the place."
"That makes sense. Someone is willing to take such a big risk and push the demons and the trial-takers to the front. We really should do something." Li Qingyi thought for a moment and said to the cute girl, "Then hurry up and sign up. Let's go to the Demon Contest."
"I've already signed up." Bai Ying looked very proud as he opened the registration form and said, "The name I filled in for you is Qingyi, and I'm Baiyi. We will join forces to take the top two spots in the Magic Spirit Contest. It will definitely be very interesting then."
