"Don't let me know who stole our Li Village's winemaking secret recipe! If I knew, I would eat him alive!"

On a bullock cart at the back, a strong man holding a heavy sword with many gaps in his hand was full of anger.

His name is Li Man, and he is one of the only two apprentice knights in the village.

Listening to the words of the people in front of him, Li Changkong took a deep breath.

When the two wines are the same, it is very normal for the people in the taverns to choose the Renault family.

Even if the Renault family's wine is sold at a higher price than theirs, many taverns will accept it.

The main reason is that their appearance is not welcome here.

If their wine is not really good, I am afraid that the tavern manager in the city will not even meet them.

"Have you bought the spirit lamp?"

Compared to selling wine, this question is more serious at the moment!

It's almost dark.

If there is no spirit lamp, the consequences will be very serious!

"I bought it." Li Man looked at Li Changkong, nodded slightly, and took out a white cylindrical object the size of a normal person's arm from the secret compartment under the ox cart.

At the top of the object was a white wick that symbolized holiness.

It was like a large white candle.

However, under the production of the potion magician, the candle was combined with a variety of potions that dispel darkness and fight dark monsters!

When the spirit lamp was taken out, the old man on the oxcart in front sighed: "We didn't expect that we wouldn't be able to sell wine today, so we only brought some food money for lunch in the city."

"Everyone didn't eat, and sold some wine to drunkards on the street at a low price. After all the money was collected, we only bought a primary spirit lamp."

"Primary spirit lamp." Li Changkong looked at the lamp in Li Man's hand, and his solemn expression eased a little: "It's almost enough."

"Uncle Li, let the people in the village gather together tonight. The coverage of the primary spirit lamp is limited." Li Changkong looked at the old man in the car in front, and then looked at Li Man in the car behind: "Li Man, the two of us have to cheer up tonight."

"Hey, night watch, I'm familiar with it." Li Man grinned and waved his hand indifferently.

As these people in front of him went to the village, Li Changkong's expression finally fluctuated in the invisible.

In silence, the pressure on his shoulders increased sharply!

...

The sky gradually darkened.

The dark night was like some kind of living thing, slowly crawling and spreading.

The originally noisy sound of insects retreated from the stage.

In the center of Li Village, on a huge open space, two huge bonfires were lit.

The hot flames, with the light of command, dispersed all the darkness around.

But in a moment, the darkness was like a ghost, entwining people's bodies again.

Around the bonfire, there were more than a hundred people of different ages sitting.

Each of these people had a bit of sorrow and confusion about the unknown future on their faces.

The moment the shadow of the night climbed up, the originally noisy children huddled together in the cold.

The women also rubbed their hands, trying to dispel the cold.

"Pah~"

In the bonfire, the branches were burned and broke with explosions.

Some sparks burst out, but they were extinguished into carbon foam in an instant.

Li Changkong picked up a flaming twig from a bonfire, and walked to the center of the crowd under the gaze of the villagers.

There was a stable small platform there.

On the platform was the primary spirit lamp!

Li Changkong stretched out the flaming twig and lit the spirit lamp directly.

"Boom!"

The surging flames suddenly burst out from the spirit lamp!

The thick darkness around them seemed to have met a natural enemy at this moment and suddenly retreated!

It was also with the lighting of the spirit lamp that the villagers sitting around in the open space could clearly feel that their mood was obviously much better.

The temperature of the bonfire in front of them also broke through the blockade of darkness and returned!

"Don't be so sad. It's their loss if the taverns in the city don't accept our wine. Will the whole village starve to death because we can't sell wine?"

Li Changkong stood next to the spirit lamp and comforted the depressed people in a relaxed tone.

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the burly man beside him: "Li Man, call two people to move the jars of wine today."

"Since they don't want to accept it, we can't waste it."

"We drink this wine ourselves!"

"The wine in our Li Village is a well-deserved good wine. We used to sell it for money. Now we can drink it ourselves. Let's drink to our heart's content!"

"I also prepared two sheep for everyone. Just eat and drink well tonight. What's the point of worrying about the future?""Let's talk about tomorrow's affairs tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow's affairs the day after tomorrow. We finally got together tonight, so let's be happy."

Li Changkong comforted the villagers.

At the same time he was talking, Li Man and several strong men brought out several jars of wine one after another.

As the two subsequent roasted lambs were set up, the strong wine was drunk, and everyone's depressed mood gradually relaxed a lot.

For a while, the relatively lively conversation gradually emerged with the stimulation of the wine.

"Don't drink, you still have to keep watch tonight." Li Changkong stopped Li Man from pouring wine for himself.

"Hehehe, village chief, I will only drink one bowl. One bowl won't delay things. In the past, I could drink ten jars of wine!"

"If you want to drink, get those children in the village drunk for me. Get one drunk and let you drink a bowl." Li Changkong pointed to the seven or eight children sitting around the campfire and eating meat.

"Get the kids drunk?" Li Man scratched his head, then thought of the reward, and immediately patted his chest with a smile on his face: "Okay! Leave it to me!"

As Li Man went forward to coax the children to drink, Li Changkong looked at the bonfire in front of him and fell into deep thought.

He asked Li Man to get the children drunk for no other reason.

He just wanted those children who had no concept of danger to fall asleep as soon as possible, sleep soundly, and not run around at night and cause some irreversible things.

"Changkong, now everyone is a little drunk, should we start asking one by one about the secret brewing formula and find out the traitor?" Just as Li Changkong was watching the bonfire in front of him go empty, Uncle Li came to the side and asked in a low voice.

After Li Bo's words came out, a question mark appeared on Li Changkong's head: "What do you mean?"

"Hey, you are still pretending!" Li Bo held a sheep bone that had been gnawed clean in his hand, and lowered his voice: "You let everyone drink, don't you want to take advantage of them being drunk to ask questions and find out the traitor?"

"No, I just thought that the wine couldn't be sold anyway, so it wouldn't be a waste to let everyone drink it." Li Changkong said bluntly.

This made Li Bo's expression stiff: "Am I thinking too much?"

"Yes, you think too much."

"Then Changkong, just follow my words and use this plan to find out the traitor! People who drink can't keep their mouths shut, and they can find out with just one question!" Li Bo obviously cares about finding out the traitor.

"No need, after you said that the Renault family has the same wine as ours on the market, I already know who leaked our village's winemaking technology." Li Changkong's words were calm, and his expression was also calm.

But under the calm expression, there was a complex emotion.

It was a mixture of confusion, anger, and...expectation.
