Damn, why do you have to kneel down? My buddy is not used to this tone.
Long Chen looked at everyone with a pious look on his face and kowtowed to the statue. He couldn't help but be confused. He was standing alone, which was too conspicuous.
Although Long Chen knew that this was a statue of the God of Baccarat, a symbol of the inheritance of the God of Baccarat and also represented the doctrine of the God of Baccarat. Kneeling and worshiping the statue is a way of expressing respect for the gods.
This is not a kind of surrender, but a kind of etiquette, but Long Chen couldn't kneel down.
But everyone knelt down, and Long Chen seemed too unruly and impolite. Made, this is a ritual, this is a ritual, this is a ritual, this is a ritual, this is a ritual, and Long Chen kept reminding himself, and admonishing himself this is a ritual, which is the same as bowing.
As soon as Long Chen bowed his knees, the voice of the high priest suddenly came: "Come in, the wine is ready, please give me some friends a taste."
High Priest, you are so handsome. I, Long Chen, thank you. Don't worry, I will never lie to you to drink. Long Chen was overjoyed, which saved him from kneeling and worshiping.
Everyone got up, but when they looked at Long Chen, their faces looked a little strange.
Because everyone kneels from the heart, they have to kneel and cannot resist it. It is a kind of awe from the depths of the soul and the gods. Only by kneeling down and bowing can you feel at ease.
"Long Chen, you are so arrogant. Isn't even the God of Baccarat worthy of your kneeling?" Han Wenjun saw that Long Chen did not kneel down to worship the statue of the God of Baccarat, and directly mocked him, intending to let the high priest expel Long Chen.
[Bayi Chinese website] "It's your business?" Long Chen glanced at Han Wenjun and couldn't help rolling his eyes. It's such a villain's behavior, but he's a fucking prince, so disgusting.
Zi Yan looked at Long Chen, but a burst of shock appeared in her heart. She had no jealousy. What she thought of was how Long Chen could ignore the power of the divine. Could he be really arrogant and even the gods could ignore it?
Hearing the call of the high priest, everyone walked forward quickly, just as everyone left the statue.
"Kaku..."
There were cracks on the statue, but the cracks were very small and the sound was very light. Everyone was deprived of their cultivation, so they did not sense it.
In fact, just as Long Chen bent his knees, the statue trembled slightly, and at that moment, the high priest spoke and summoned everyone in.
Everyone walked into the hall and saw an old man with a kind face and a handsome face, sitting on the ground, looking at everyone with a smile.
"See the High Priest."
After everyone came in, they hurriedly bowed and said that the high priest was the most powerful person in the Dionysian Palace, and they all felt awe.
"Don't be too polite, come and sit down!"
The high priest smiled slightly and pointed at the futon in front of him.
From left to right, the cushion was Zi Yan, Long Chen, Xia Youluo, Xia Yunchong, Han Wenjun and Li Wanji. After the six of them sat down, they all looked at the high priest in front of them.
The high priest looked like an ordinary old man, and he didn't feel any cultivation. He was wearing a zipper dress and had a wooden stick beside him. It looked like ordinary wood, not any weapon.
But sitting in front of the high priest makes people feel particularly peaceful, friendly and natural, without any sense of restraint.
"The old man hasn't communicated with the guests for a long time. Today, I'm lucky. If you talk more to the young people, the old man can also recover his vitality." The high priest smiled.
"Grandpa High Priest, you are actually not old at all." Xia Youluo, the girl, was so quick-hearted that she comforted her directly.
"If you replace grandpa with brother, you will not be old at all." Long Chen couldn't help but smile, but soon his face froze.
Because of some reason, Long Chen just thought in his heart, but he said it in his mouth. Long Chen looked at the high priest with shock. What kind of ability is this?
"Long Chen, don't be rude." This time, even Zi Yan glared at Long Chen. This guy was too much. He even dared to make jokes from the high priest. Everyone else was stupid. He was too brave.
"Hahaha"
The high priest laughed and said, "It's okay, young people should look like young people. Otherwise, when you reach my age, you will regret your youth and your life is too cautious."
Long Chen was a little embarrassed, but he was also a little scared. The high priest was probably even more terrifying than he had imagined, and he could not even speak out.
"Disciple Ziyan, come to pay homage to the priest and listen to the priest's teachings." Ziyan said respectfully.
"The old man has nothing to teach you. What you can do is just a few jars of old wine." The high priest shook his head and smiled.
After saying that, there was a jar in his hand, and poured a bowl of wine in front of each person, making a gesture to use it.
Long Chen picked up the wine bowl and found that there seemed to be endless turbid objects in the wine, but after closer inspection, he was shocked to find that the turbid objects were actually runes.
Runes surging in the wine, locking all the energy in the runes. When the wine enters the throat, the endless runes instantly transform into the air, like a river breaking the dam, rushing to the limbs and bones of people.
"Buzz"
Everyone's bodies glowed, runes emerged, and the power of heaven and earth rushed towards everyone, and the laws flowed, wrapping everyone, except for only one person, that is Long Chen.
The rune power in Long Chen's body surged, constantly nourishing Long Chen's body. All Long Chen's pores were opened, as if they were about to absorb the energy of heaven and earth.
But those energy, when Ben ignored Long Chen, crossed his body, and flew directly to the other five people, just like six hungry birds waiting to be fed, others were fed, but they were not given to Long Chen.
"This is the wine brewed in my prime, which can entice the power of heaven and earth and melt itself. Come, please taste the second type of wine."
After saying that, everyone poured another bowl of wine in their hands, but the bowl of wine was clear and fragrant. It swallowed into their abdomen, and the wine slowly dissipated and wandered back and forth in their bodies.
Compared with the previous tough and domineering style, the second bowl of wine is more mellow and long, with endless aftertaste. Long Chen cannot sense the power of the heavenly way, but he can see the happy and relaxed expression on Zi Yan and others' faces. It is obvious that they have all entered a strange state.
Long Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. It seemed that this time he came here for nothing. It seemed that the last wine tasting had nothing to do with him.
"This third bowl is my new work in recent years. Please try it."
Long Chen picked up the third bowl of wine and drank it, but he couldn't help but be surprised. This is not wine, it is clearly water.
Not only Long Chen was stunned, but even Zi Yan and others looked puzzled. Obviously, they were drinking water. Zi Yan's beautiful eyes flashed, as if she had realized something.
"Thank you for the high priest's advice. Zi Yan is very grateful. The starting point is the end point. Only when you are reborn and break through the cocoon can you break out of the original trajectory and pursue a higher realm." Zi Yan respectfully bowed to the high priest.
"The great way is simple, breaking square into circles, breaking the surface with points and covering the whole with sides is the inheritance of God and the derivation of Tao." The high priest said.
Zi Yan was overjoyed and thanked the high priest again. All the above faces were grateful.
"The disciple is in trouble and cannot break through the barrier. Now I have to ask the high priest to give me some advice, and then I suddenly realize it." Zi Yan said respectfully.
"Haha, the old man is not qualified to give you some advice. He just invited you to drink a few bowls of wine and dare not take credit for it." The high priest smiled.
"You can visit other places in the Jiushen Palace, and maybe you have other gains. I have a few words and I want to discuss them separately with my friend Long Chen."
Everyone was shocked and looked at Long Chen in a bit incredible way. The high priest actually had something to say to Long Chen.
Moreover, the tone of the high priest was already very obvious, and everyone had to leave, but jealousy appeared on the faces of Han Wenjun and Li Wanji.
The goal of Han Wenjun's visit this time was to meet the high priest. For this reason, he practiced wine art for three years, and specially asked experts to give advice to him in various etiquette and knowledge of wine tasting and brewing, and mastered the essence of his understanding.
For the process, ingredients, and year of wine, you only need to smell it once before you can accurately state the key points.
Originally, this time, I wanted to use my own wine technique to gain the favor of the Dionysian Palace and receive the reception from the high priest.
However, now the high priest saw it, but after only drinking three bowls of wine, he didn't even do a direct conversation, and was about to be driven away. He was extremely anxious.
"Sir, Dahan is interested in asking the Dionysus Palace to open a branch palace in Dahan, and spread the glory of Dionysus to more places." Han Wenjun said hurriedly.
"This is a good thing, I will consider it." The high priest smiled slightly.
Han Wenjun couldn't help but be overjoyed, then turned around and went out with everyone. Seeing everyone going out, Long Chen said:
"Sir, you must not open a palace in the ancient country of Dahan."
"Oh? Why is this?" asked the high priest.
"Because I went to the ancient country of Dahan, the God of Baccarat is likely to be a Dahan." Long Chen said with a serious face.
"Haha, it doesn't matter where the God of Baccarat is. It's enough to just be able to lead the God of Baccarat correctly. I'm just afraid that some people will be incorrect and misinterpret the God of Baccarat's original intention, and they will be very guilty."
The high priest smiled and said, "Today I will leave my friend alone. If you have any doubts in your heart, just say it. I will definitely tell you what I can say."
Even Long Chen didn't know why the high priest was so special to him, and he couldn't help but be a little flattered.
"I really have something to do to ask the priest for help..." Long Chen hesitated for a moment, then expressed his original intention of refining the medicinal wine, and handed the medicinal wine he prepared to the priest to taste.
"There is such a effect just by making up, which is simply amazing." This time, even the high priest was moved by it.
"The boy has some research on the alchemy path and hopes to have a mutually beneficial exchange with the wine path of the Jiushen Palace.
Now these wines are just made wine, with limited medicinal effects, and the elixir and wine paths are blended, with the focus on the brewing process.
In this process, the alchemy and the wine path are mutually verified. I believe that it will be of great benefit to the practice of disciples of the Jiushen Palace. Otherwise, the Jiushen Palace would not have cooperated with the Dangu at the beginning.
