Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 615 The Xie Family’s Wine

When Gao Ge asks why it has to be her, Water Dragon immediately realizes that Gao Ge may have guessed something.

Thus, she also gives a certain and yet vague answer directly.

Gao Ge frowns.

This is not the first time he has heard such words.

However, every time he hears that, he feels depressed.

Instead of responding, he just turns around and leaves.

Since Master Wen asserts that the old woman’s original body is within a five-kilometer radius from here, he still has a chance of finding them now.

Maybe Meng Jing is still with that old woman now.

Not maybe.

It is beyond question.

Therefore, he must speed up and find them earlier than the Dragon Court does.

However, he doesn’t get his way.

Even the Dragon Court can’t find the old woman after searching for a long while, let alone Gao Ge.

Of course, they still need to continue looking for her.

The old woman has suffered a severe loss in Qiu City. Supposedly, she won’t just let go easily, which can be seen from the fact that the ghost worms haven’t completely vanished. Hence, there is still a chance.

However, according to Master Wen, the old woman showed up in the form of a puppet before, but it also took her a lot of energy. She must choose to hide away in recuperation for some time and won’t initiate any attack within a short period of time.

Besides, such a severe loss gives them a reminder. Due to this failure, it will be basically impossible to find another chance like this.

The Dragon Court has shaken the bush to rouse the serpent this time. Even if the old woman is insane, she can’t let them pull off the same trick again.

Therefore, Gao Ge also feels very wrathful.

However, wrath is of no avail. It is not that the Dragon Court was not well prepared but that they didn’t expect the old woman to fly their kite with a puppet. Even if Gao Ge had known about their plan and engaged himself through the whole action, the result wouldn’t have been changed. It is beyond all doubt.

Actually, at the thought of that, Gao Ge feels a bit better.

Currently, he still has a chance anyway.

That the ghost worms in Qiu City haven’t vanished means the old woman hasn’t run away. This is a chance for him.

Since he knows the old woman won’t give up, it is not a difficult thing to take her down in Qiu City.

After returning to the Tang Family’s courtyard, Gao Ge doesn’t look happy.

As to the Dragon Court...

Gao Ge can’t be bothered to blame them. After all, he doesn’t have a reason to do that.

He is not a member of the Dragon Court anymore, but Meng Jing is!

As a member of the Dragon Court, it is normal that she carries out the mission assigned by the Dragon Court.

Although the mission is risky, Meng Jing still has no reason to say no.

Gao Ge knows that very well.

Gao Ge must be the one who knows best about Meng Jing in the world.

Even Meng Jing’s parents don’t know more about her than him.

Gao Ge is very confident.

He is ruminating about how Meng Jing is doing now...

Probably because they have seen through Gao Ge’s bad mood, Yue Xincheng and the others don’t come near.

To comfort Gao Ge?

It must be a joke.

For the time being, Gao Ge has met so many ups and downs. How can he need comforting?

Now Gao Ge only needs to calm down on his own and get himself together.

After all, Gao Ge is still good at adjusting himself to the situation.

At night, Xie Zhuolian drops by.

Gao Ge didn’t expect to meet her.

Moreover, she also brings a pot of wine.

“This is the medicinal wine unique to my family. Medicinal wine as it is, it does taste good with the effect of calming the nerves. Would you like to try it?” Xie Zhuolian says with a smile.

Looking at her, Gao Ge nods his head and also gives a smile.

A servant of the Tang Family’s serves some dishes and two bowls.

Xie Zhuolian fills the bowl with the wine. Instantly, the fragrance of the wine permeates the air.

Just as Xie Zhuolian said, although this is medicinal wine, it does taste good, which can be told from the fragrance of the wine.

“I’ve heard about your matter from Lord Water Dragon,” Xie Zhuolian says smilingly. “But she didn’t say much so I have to guess the rest. I’m not a member of the Dragon Court. Even if I am, I’m afraid that I can’t know too much, can I?”

As Gao Ge drinks up the wine in the bowl, he feels much better and his breath becomes a lot smoother.

It seems that Xie Zhuolian was not blowing her own trumpet. The wine does have a good effect of soothing the nerves.

Gao Ge feels not only good about Xie Zhuolian but also grateful to her.

It was in his previous life that she helped him, but Gao Ge is a grateful person. Yet by now, Xie Zhuolian hasn’t given him a chance of requiting favors.

Calm and composed, Xie Zhuolian pours another bowl of wine for Gao Ge.

“Does the wine taste good?”

Gao Ge nods his head and says smilingly, “If the Xie Family starts the business of wine, your family will rise to fame for sure.”

Xie Zhuolian puckers her lips and doesn’t agree with Gao Ge. “I don’t think so. The wine contains too many precious medicinal materials. Besides, it is too time-consuming and complicated to make the wine. Therefore, we never sell our wine. We only send it to others as a gift.”

Gao Ge asks curiously, “How much will the pot of wine cost if it is for sales?”

Xie Zhuolian shakes her head and says, “As I said, we never sell our wine. Hence, there is no price tag on it. Neither am I sure how much it should cost. However, if you must ask, putting aside the labor and time spent on it, simply in terms of the medicinal materials, the wine is worth one million.”

Gao Ge shakes his head with a bitter smile.

Indeed, if the Xie Family really sells wine, the sales volume will probably be rather low.

Actually, the medicinal materials are not important at all. The time that the Xie Family spends matters most. Their time is very valuable. With the time to make wine, they can do more things. So, the time cost is far higher than the cost of medicinal materials.

“I heard that you were looking for your girlfriend?” Xie Zhuolian asks.

Gao Ge nods his head.

In his previous life, just because Meng Jing was gone, he met Xie Zhuolian. They were not acquainted but at least Gao Ge felt cared for in that cold winter.

In this life, Gao Ge has Yue Xincheng, Xia Lu and a lot of other good friends. Besides, Meng Jing is still alive in the world, though he hasn’t found her for now. Under the circumstance, he meets Xie Zhuolian again, which is quite coincidental.

“I don’t know much about you, but I think the girl loved by you must be happy. What’s more, I’m sure you can find her,” Xie Zhuolian hedges and clinks her bowl with Gao Ge’s. Then she continues, “I’d better drop this thing now. It won’t bring you anything but annoyance. Just drink the wine and have a sleep. You will find that tomorrow is another day.”
