80s Taoism

"If the spell comes true later, you are not allowed to hit me with bamboo shoots in the future." Zhang Jiaohua turned her mouth up and was very unhappy.

"I want to fight, and I don't need to fight with the shoots of the bamboo shoots in the future." Zhang Youping resolutely promised.

Zhang Jiaohua felt that Zhang Youping's promise was made too quickly, and no matter how he heard it, he thought it was fake, so he quickly said, "Don't hit me with other things."

Zhang Youping was stunned, Liu Qiaoye walked in, and said first, "Okay, I won't hit you with anything in the future. But if you play tricks on us today, be careful that I will break the shoots of this bamboo shoot in two."

Zhang Jiaohua hastily made a bow to the patriarch, "Patriarch bless me, but you must let me try my spells. Otherwise, my ass will bloom."

"Are you scared? If you're scared, just admit your mistake honestly." Seeing Zai Zai's appearance, Liu Qiaoye almost couldn't hold back her laughter.

"I'm not wrong. It's none of your business if I ask the patriarch for mercy." Zhang Jiaohua was determined.

Zhang Jiaohua lit incense in front of the statue of the patriarch, and burned a chisel of money paper, then came to the kitchen and began to recite the mantra: I am ordered by the patriarch to go down the mountain, and I will bring a golden lock with me. I will roast the wine today and seal the wine into the tight door. I sincerely invite the Six Stars of the South Dipper and the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, and I will obey the order of the Supreme Lord as urgent as a law.

While chanting the mantra, he kept drawing the roasting wine charm on the roasting wine jar, and used the spells together.

Zhang Youping and Liu Qiaoye didn't understand whether Zaizai's roasting wine spell would work today, and they were a little bit looking forward to it. But it was hard to accept it. A pot of wine, even when the wine is roasted, even the lees are counted as wine, the total is less than fifty catties. But how can roast wine have no lees? If the magic spell made by Zai Zai really saved so many people, where did the wine come from?

But Zhang Jiaohua had only chanted the incantation for a while, and suddenly there was a smell of wine in the kitchen.

"It smells so good, is there an air leak from the roasting wine jar?" Zhang Youping glanced at his wife.

"Maybe." Liu Qiaoye nodded.

The two went up to have a look. There is a bamboo tube connected to the roasting wine retort and the wine jar, and a sky pot filled with water is placed on the retort. The pot under the steamer is filled with distiller's grains. When the distiller's grains are heated, because the boiling point of alcohol is lower than that of water, the alcohol volatilizes first, and condenses when it is cold in the Tianguo, and gathers at the bottom of the Tianguo and flows into the bamboo tube. Then it flows into the roasted wine jar along the bamboo tube. There will still be a large amount of gaseous alcohol in the space where the steamer and the roasting wine jar are connected. Once there is a leak, a large amount of alcohol will escape, which will eventually affect the output.

But when the two of them walked to the wine jar, they heard the sound of ding dong ding dong in the wine jar. This is not roast wine, it is clearly flowing water. And listening to the sound, it seemed that the wine jar was almost full.

Zhang Youping lifted the lid of the rice wine jar. When roasting wine, try not to lift the lid of the roasting wine jar, otherwise it is easy to let the gaseous alcohol escape, and finally affect the output. But Zhang Youping had to open the lid of the grilled wine jar. Looking at the grilled wine jar, I was shocked! The wine in this roasting wine jar was already full to the neck of the roasting wine jar.

"Quick, change the jar." Fortunately, Zhang Youping still remembered Zaizai's previous instructions, he didn't say anything nonsense, and he gave the mother-in-law a wink, fearing that the mother-in-law would say anything nonsense, the two of them tacitly replaced the roasting wine jar that they had just borrowed. The liquor flowing out of the bamboo tube is like mountain stream water, with tinkling sound and continuous flow.

At this moment, the couple were completely shocked, that such a bizarre thing really happened in the world.

"Hey, why don't you taste the wine and see how it is?" Liu Qiaoye pushed the man.

Zhang Youping went to get a small enamel cup, put a small glass of wine in the wine jar, and took a sip. The wine was cold and seemed to have been roasted for a while. Not quite the same as freshly baked wine. But the taste is really good, it seems to be much higher than the usual wine. The taste is more pure. It doesn't have the bitter taste of ordinary rice wine. The color of the wine is also very clear, which is quite different from the turbidity of ordinary rice wine.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Zhang Youping hadn't spoken for a long time, Liu Qiaoye asked eagerly.

"Good wine, good wine." Zhang Youping felt that this wine was much better than the rice wine he drank since childhood. There is a hint of sweetness in the mouth. After drinking this wine, it is extremely mellow, and it is also very soft after drinking it. The aroma of wine in his mouth lingers for a long time. Zhang Youping had never drank such fine wine.

"I'll try it." Seeing Zhang Youping enjoying himself, Liu Qiaoye couldn't help being moved. Taking the wine glass from Zhang Youping's hand, he took a sip, and was immediately overwhelmed by the mellowness and softness of the wine, "It's really delicious."

In the farmers in Meiziao, not only the men are good at drinking, but all the women have been drinking since childhood. Liu Qiaoye's drinking capacity is no worse than Zhang Youping's.

"Hurry up, seal the jar, so that the smell of the wine doesn't escape." Liu Qiaoye said hastily.

Zhang Jiaohua was still drawing talismans on the grilled wine jar non-stop, and also chanting spells in his mouth, the ding-dong sound inside the roasted wine jar was very crisp. From the ding-dong sound, it can be heard where the wine has probably arrived.

The wine seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, and it didn't take long for the second wine jar to be filled.

Zhang Youping and Liu Qiaoye, who had been prepared for a long time, quickly installed the last grilled wine jar.

Liu Qiaoye pulled Zhang Youping aside, "Quickly think of something."

Liu Qiaoye pointed to the wine jar, and Zhang Youping immediately understood. Liu Qiaoye was worried that the wine jar would be full later and there would be nothing to put it in. Zhang Youping took a look at the big water tank at home, that big water tank can hold three loads of water. It can hold more than three hundred catties. Liu Qiaoye said before that he would use buckets and vats to store wine, and this sentence may be fulfilled.

Zhang Youping was really decisive, ran over to scoop out the water in the tank with a ladle, and emptied the tank.

"Are you pretending like this?" Liu Qiaoye whispered in Zhang Youping's ear.

Zhang Youping nodded. Liu Qiaoye didn't say anything. There is really nothing else in the house that can hold wine.

After emptying the water tank, Zhang Youping decisively poured all the wine from the two roasted wine jars into the water tank. Then I went to find a piece of clean plastic to cover the mouth of the huge water tank. How much can also reduce the dissipation of some alcohol.

Fortunately, Zhang Youping was decisive, and the grilled wine jar was filled up very quickly.

Liu Qiaoye pulled the man again, Zhang Youping followed Liu Qiaoye's hand and looked over. Liu Qiaoye pointed to the hearth of the stove, the few pieces of firewood in the hearth had already been burnt out, only the fire that was about to go out remained. But the wine kept flowing out of the bamboo tube. It's weird.
