1413 The Best Quality Wine (1/2)
Ximen Dingjun's tent was as huge as the tent generals used during ancient times. There was large bed inside and even a desk and furniture to match. It could easily fit a dozen of people and there would still be room to wiggle.
”Mr. Chen! You're finally here!”
Ximen Dingjun was sitting on a gold throne in the center of the tent.
Standing to next to him was the old bodyguard disguised as a young man with cultivation equivalent to a demigod.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.
”I'm sorry to keep you waiting, Ninth Young Lord!” Chen Xiaobei produced a small bottle and said,
”This is the special secret medicinal wine that I have prepared. It will take effect immediately after you drink it!”
”Alright! If it really is that miraculous, I will reward you!” Ximen Dingjun gave the old man a look.
The old man then came forward to receive the bottle. He opened it, took a whiff, and then dipped a fine, long, needle into the bottle.
”Why? Are you afraid that I spiked it?” Chen Xiaobei chuckled. ”If I poison the Ninth Young Lord, where am I supposed to run to?”
Ximen Dingjun explained, ”Please don't mind it, Mr. Chen. Ever since I was born, anything that enters the mouth will have to go through his test! If possible, he will taste it before I do!”
”Mm, I understand! Ninth Young Lord is a prince. This is all surely necessary!” Chen Xiaobei nodded.
”Anyone can drink this medicinal wine. Brother Meng can go ahead and taste it! It's not a problem at all.”
”Mm.”
The old man poured a little of the liquid into a small cup.
The whole tent was filled with an amazing but strong aroma.
”Wow! It smells so good!”
Ximen Dingjun loved eating, drinking and most of all gambling. Beautiful women aside, his second favorite interest was good wine!
He had an intoxicated look in his eyes at the smell of the wine.
”The aroma of fruits... rich on the palate, with a sweet aroma. This is rare wine! Hurry! Give it to me!”
The old man passed the cup over.
In the cup, the wine looked like a thousand rubies, crystal clear with a crimson color. Not a trace of impurities could be traced in it and it was irresistible!
”What a beautiful color! What refined texture! Amazing! Absolutely amazing! Hurry up! I want to try it!”
Ximen Dingjun was practically drooling at the brew.
”Hang on, my young lord. Allow me to test it for poison first.” The old man lowered his voice.
There was the same thirst in his eyes. He was clearly a man who enjoyed his wine as well.
”Mm! Hurry up already! I can't wait any longer!” Ximen Dingjun said.
The old man raised the cup, and downed it. There was an unmistakable intoxication in his eyes. ”Good wine! Very good wine! It's indescribable! You can't even find such good quality wine in the Temple's wine cellar!”
The old man was about to pour himself more of the wine when Ximen Dingjun grabbed it from him.
The impatient prince could not wait anymore. He brought the bottle to his mouth and began to gulp it down.
