Chapter 331 Open the bottle

Lan Jue called the old scholar to interstellar communication and explained the situation in a few simple words. The old scholar just said angrily: "These guys have failed to succeed and have enough trouble." Then he hung up the communication. Lan Jue knew that the matter was over.

Lan Jue originally wanted to go to find a wine tasting in the evening, but later he thought that he would drink some good wine tomorrow and invite him to come over at that time. He would always meet, so he didn't go again. After eating something casually in the evening, he began to meditate in the room.

Since Taihuaxing came back, he has always felt that his cultivation speed has increased, at least much faster than before, even after breaking through the ninth level and level 7, he still did this. At this speed, he calculated that he seemed to have a chance to break through to the ninth level peak level at about the same age as his brother. He has a dual-type supernatural ability, and by that time, he would be very confident to compete with his brother.

After meditating for one night, his cultivation increased, and the thunder and lightning abilities around the energy core became more and more stable. For the sake of the bottle of Baccarat, he drank a glass of water in the morning and ate two slices of white bread. He didn't dare to eat anything with any taste. He went straight to the foodie's hut.

It was still the ones yesterday, foodie, tailor, beggar, it seemed that they came earlier than the other.

Seeing Lan Jue coming in, the beggar immediately stood up and said eagerly: "There are all people here, come on!"

The foodie nodded and took out the bottle of the legendary wine god Henrigaye's Crohaba from his constant temperature wine cabinet.

"Who cuts? Or cuts a fork?" This is the scientific name for opening wine. Generally speaking, traditional seahorse swords are used to drive red wine. Sometimes, two iron-like forks are used to drive some old wine. When opening a bottle of old wine, the standard for the wine plug is intact, which is called beautiful opening.

The wine plug is oak. If it is fully opened, it means that the quality of the wine itself is well preserved. Some poorly preserved red wine plugs will directly break or even break into slags, and the quality of the wine stored in it can be imagined. Therefore, opening a bottle is also a very particular science. Generally speaking, if a group of people drink, the one who opens the bottle must understand the most and has the most stable hands.

In the New Dollar era, a bottle of good wine was also priceless, especially the legendary wine of the world's god of wine, Henry Jayer. The wine jams and empty bottles can also be auctioned, and they are rare antiques. I wonder how many people are willing to put them in their collections.

The beggar immediately raised his hands and surrendered, "I am famous for breaking my hands, so don't let me come. Otherwise, everyone will feel sorry for me if I break it. Otherwise, you can use your superpower to suck it out?" The beggar suggested to the foodie.

The foodie shook her head, "When drinking this kind of wine, you need to have a pilgrimage mentality. Everything must be done with the most primitive means. How can you use superpowers? If you didn't have to invite the taster to come here now, in fact, he is the best to open the bottle, and he has the most experience. I also lack confidence! Jewelry master, why don't you come?"

Lan Jue said: "Release the aluminum foil and see what the plug is doing."

"Okay." The foodie agreed.

The so-called aluminum foil is the layer of metal sealing the cork at the mouth of the red wine bottle, used to seal it.

This bottle of Crohaba looks quite well sealed. It is not easy to preserve the wine from Shangyuan in 1993 to this extent. Burgundy wine is less difficult than Bordeaux.

The foodie took out a seahorse sword like a magic trick. There is a small knife on the back of the seahorse sword, which is specially used to open the aluminum foil on the mouth of the red wine bottle.

Seeing the seahorse sword in the foodie's hand, Lan Jue couldn't help but lit up his eyes.

The seahorse saber is similar, with two or one piece, both of which are spiral screwdrivers and the knife behind them. After turning into the cork, the front end clamp presses against the bottle mouth and pulls out the cork.

The seahorse sword in the hands of the foodie has a different handle. It is very beautiful, looks very simple and has patterns. With Lan Jue's eyesight, you can tell at a glance that it is a mammoth stem. The shank made of the bones of mammoth fossils in ancient times is extremely precious and rare.

At the same time, the screwdriver of this seahorse knife is longer than the ordinary one. This seahorse knife is specially used to drive old wines, because some old wines from the Shangyuan era will have very long wines. Only by completely punching them with a screwdriver can the bottle plug be pulled out more completely without being damaged.

The serrated knife turned twice, and the aluminum foil at the mouth of the bottle fell off, revealing the cork inside.

When the four of them saw the appearance of the stumbler, their faces changed slightly.

"Peeled." The gourmet frowned.

The cork is not woody, but dark brown, with some dark stains on it. This is a sign that the cork has been penetrated by the wine inside because it took too long. Fortunately, the wine in the bottle is still transparent, otherwise Lan Jue would probably suspect that the bottle of legendary wine god's fine wine is old.

If red wine is stored improperly or lasts too long, it will break. But the term is called old and will not be said to be bad directly to show respect for wine.

The foodie took a clean white cloth and carefully sprinkled the black stains on the bottle mouth. This was not really dirty, but the reaction of the penetrating red wine and the corks.

"Come on, I'll do it?" The gourmet looked at Lan Jue.

Lan Jue took a deep breath and said, "I'll do it." He should be the only one at critical moments. Moreover, he considers himself not as good as a gourmet in food, but he is still very experienced in understanding red wine. He has also promoted a lot of old wines.

The foodie handed him the seahorse saber.

Lan Jue said: "If I open the bottle jam intact, I will belong to me." He did not intend to ask for the bottle jam and the wine bottle, which would undoubtedly be taken back by the taster.

The foodie said angrily: "You are simply a robber. Okay, as long as you can drive it out intact, it will be yours. But what if the plug is broken?"

Lan Jue smiled on his face and said, "Then I will invite you and a bottle of old whiskey that is at least thirty years old."

"A word is determined." The foodie made a quick decision.

Lan Jue pried apart the seahorse knife, the screwdriver was facing outward, and the wine bottle was placed lightly and smoothly in front of him. He focused a little, and his breath suddenly became stable.

Seeing this scene, the gourmet and the beggar couldn't help but nod. Although the jeweler was young, his mentality was calm enough.

Lan Jue's movements were not fast at all, and he was very careful. The tip in front of the screwdriver was accurately located at the center of the wine plug, and then gently press down and rotate the screwdriver at the same time to let the front end of the screwdriver drill into the wood plug.

His movements were unfast, and his rotation was rhythmic. The screwdriver, which exceeded seven centimeters in length, slowly drilled into the wine plug without any deviation.

Soon, the entire screwdriver had been fully drilled in, and the wine knife was raised and the metal clip was stuck at the mouth of the bottle. The most important time was to pull out the wine plug.

In this process, the wine plug may be damaged at any time. Once it is broken, although it will not affect the wine inside, it will definitely be a great regret.

Lan Jue did not directly pull the wine knife to pull the plug, but slowly placed the wine bottle horizontally and then gently started exerting force.

Only experienced people will open the old wine plug in this way, and the chance of breaking the plug will be much smaller.

The foodie and the beggar stared at his hands for a moment.

The wine plug was drawn out bit by bit, and the speed was very even, without any slack or excessive force. When the front end of the wine plug was pulled out a little, everyone's eyes showed joy. Although the surface was penetrated, the side wall of the wine plug was still in the color of a wood. In other words, the wine plug was not completely penetrated, but the center part was a little penetrated.

This discovery made the three of them overjoyed, proving that the quality of this bottle of wine was better than expected.

The wine stuffed a little, and it came out a little, without breaking it!

Finally, at the last little, Lan Jue's face showed a faint smile. With his experience and feel of drinking, the wine plug was no problem.

With a gentle force, the wine was stuffed out of the bottle and made a "pop" sound. But at this moment, a faint silver light suddenly flashed at the mouth of the bottle.

“Not good. Touching space imprint.”

A silver light flashed, and a towering aura suddenly appeared in the gourmet hut. A powerful pressure mixed with anger sounded, "You guys, I'm going to kill you!"

What happened suddenly was undoubtedly the taster.

Lan Jue responded immediately, raised the bottle high with both hands, "Don't do it, be careful of the wine."

The taster's original uplifting momentum instantly stopped, and his eyes suddenly fell on the bottle. Lan Jue was still holding a seahorse knife in his hand, and the complete stopper was on the screwdriver. The bottle had been opened, and there was no fragrance in it.

"You bastards, my legendary wine god!" The wine taster wailed and grabbed the bottle. Although his movements were very fast, he was very steady. Looking at the wine label on the bottle, he was like looking at his beloved woman.

The foodie and the beggar looked at each other, and their expressions were a little awkward. Although they had originally planned to wait until the bottle was opened before calling the taster. But the process must have them all drink some first before talking. Otherwise, what if they invite the great god over and don’t let everyone drink it? After all, they are a disgraceful way to get this bottle of wine.

"Bring it!" the wine taster roared at Lan Jue.

Lan Jue hurriedly handed the sea saber in his hand and whispered: "Don't be scared of the wine, the taste will become."

The taster glared at him viciously, "I knew you were there." He took the wine knife and looked at the plug carefully. On the plug, the letters of the henjijayer were very clear and complete.

Looking at the complete wine stuffing, the taster's face finally looked a little better. He turned his head to look at the foodie, "What are you doing when you look stupid? What's the best Burgundy cup?"
