One day, he walked out of Longmen, looked south along the winding Yishui and found a small river. The higher up, the narrower and clearer the river, and the greater the momentum of Du Kang. He climbed over the mountains and finally found the source of the river. I saw the rushing and noisy river turn as white as practice here and disappear into a small ditch not far away. Du Kang ran down the hill and hurried to the front of the ditch. He saw a hundred springs spewing in the ditch, crisp and clear. Du Kang bent down and took out a handful of spring water to drink, feeling cool, sweet and refreshing. He couldn't help taking a sip after sip, and suddenly felt refreshed and refreshed. Du Kang was so happy that he set up a shack here to settle down and started a wine-making business. Later, the number of people living here gradually increased, forming a village.
Du Kang's wine-making technology is very high. Since he discovered this excellent spring, the operation has been stricter and more precise. He personally screened refined grains, collected medicinal liquor, and concocted strange recipes. The wine brewed was sweet and delicious, and was famous for hundreds of miles in Fiona Fang. Later, Du Kang's making of fine wine spread to the emperor of the dynasty, and the emperor specially sent people here to solicit "royal wine". This "imperial wine" was transported to Luoyang, Kyoto. When the Emperor drank it, he was refreshed. be in heaven named Du Kang "Brewmaster". So this village is also called "Dukang Xianzhuang". Because Du Kang used the spring water here to make wine, this spring water was later named "Jiuquan"
That ditch is therefore called "Jiuquan ditch".
Du Kang is famous for making wine. Later, he was called Brewmaster by the Jade Emperor.
There are only a few days in the sky, but a thousand years on earth. It wasn't long after Du Kang arrived in the Heavenly Palace, but the world has changed dynasties for more than 1000 years. Once, a fairy boy from Yaochi, the Queen Mother of the Heavenly Palace, accidentally broke a favorite glass cup of the Queen Mother because he stole the "royal wine" specially prepared for the flat peach banquet, and was punished by the Queen Mother and sent to suffer. This fairy boy later became Liu Ling, one of the "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest" in Jin Dynasty. Liu Ling was sent to the lower bound. She was still addicted to drinking, but she was not drunk. She lived in seclusion all her life and did not seek fame. One day, the Queen Mother came to the end and sent Du Kang down to "enlighten" him to become an immortal.
In the middle of this year, Liu Ling left home for a tour and came to Dukangxian Village at the foot of Funiu Mountain. In the restaurant at the head of the village, a pair of couplets is very eye-catching. The first couplet reads: a tiger is drunk in a cup of mountains; The bottom line is correct: dragons sleep at the bottom of the sea. Horizontal batch: Du Kang winemaker. Liu Ling laughed after reading it: "Small shop in mountain village, what a big breath!" Then he went into the shop. He sat down at the table and shouted, "Bring good wine quickly!" " I saw an old man with white hair coming out of the room, bowed deeply to Liu Ling and asked, "Do the guests want to drink?" Liu Ling said, "How many jars of good wine do you have in this small hotel?"
The old man said, "In our small business, there is only one jar of wine, and there is no extra."
Liu Ling laughed and said, "One jar of wine dares to open a shop. Even if I drink alone, I may not be able to enjoy myself. "
The old man said, "You don't know, I don't have much wine, but it is the most famous Dukang wine in the world. Generally speaking, a small lamp can satisfy a small number of visitors; If the quantity is large, a large glass of wine is enough. " Said, and told the bartender to pour a small glass of wine.
Hearing this, Liu Ling was amused and secretly scolded: "What a bad old man who is not sensible. How can pubs in the world be afraid that others will drink too much? " He must have looked at my clothes and was afraid that I couldn't afford to buy wine, so he used these words to fool people. "
At this moment, Xiao Er saw that Liu Ling was so unfair, so he poured a large glass of wine and put it on the table. Liu Ling was very unhappy and said to the old man, "Boss, since you said this is Dukang wine, I'll get drunk. Bring your wine can quickly. I have a lot of money here. "
The old man said, "Our store has a meager profit and doesn't pay much attention to money. I'm just worried that we'll get drunk and be bad for our guests. I am really sorry. "
Liu Ling said, "you don't have to worry about that. You bring Four Treasures of the Study, and I'll write down the written evidence for safekeeping, so as not to lose my life. "
The old man had to ask Xiao Er to bring the jar. Liu Ling thought she could drink a lot, so she immediately took a big glass and drank one after another.
Who knows that after three glasses of wine, Liu Ling couldn't hold on any longer and dared not drink any more. She repeatedly praised: "Good wine, good wine!" At this time and upwelling, Liu Ling quickly got up and said goodbye to the store. I didn't know that as soon as he got up, he stumbled and knocked over the jar on the ground. Unfortunately, a can of good wine spilled all over the floor. Liu Ling forgot to pay for the drinks and stumbled out of the restaurant. When she got home, she collapsed in bed. Seeing that he was so drunk, his wife hurried to make tea and soup for him. Unexpectedly, Liu Ling was drunk and in a coma for three days. On the fourth day, she was unconscious. The wife was heartbroken, and the neighbors who came to comfort her sighed. Everyone helped and buried Liu Ling in the coffin.
Besides, the white-haired old man in the hotel turned out to be Du Kang. It has been three years since Liu Ling left that day. According to the queen mother's order, he calculated that this day was the day of Liu Ling's death. On this day, Du Kang is still dressed as before. He put a wallet on his shoulder and went to Liu Ling's home happily. He called several times and the firewood flew away. Liu Ling's wife came out and asked, "Who is that old man looking for?" Du Kang replied, "Excuse me, is this Mr. Liu Ling's residence?" Liu Ling's wife said, "Exactly. I wonder what's the matter? " Du Kang said, "Three years ago, your husband drank three cups in our shop and kicked the jar down. The money hasn't been paid yet. I'm here for money. " Liu Ling's wife didn't listen to this, but when she heard this, she couldn't help getting angry. She grabbed Du Kang by the collar and cried, "OK, that's it. I won't ask you, so why did you come to ask for a drink? Let's go. Come with me to the yamen to see the official. I'll pay my husband's life, and then I'll pay you back for the drinks. " She howled and dragged Du Kang to see the official. Du Kang can't make it.
When the neighbors heard the noise, they all came to ask, and the more they gathered, the more they gathered. Du Kang shouted to everyone: "How can there be such a truth in the world? Her husband drank my wine and didn't give me money, but he also sent me to be an official! " Everyone said that Liu Ling's wife let go.
Du Kang then told a story about Liu Ling drinking in a bar three years ago, and then took out a piece of paper written by Liu Ling for everyone to see, saying, "Everyone is a witness. I can guarantee that Liu Ling is drunk and not dead. Let's dig a grave and open a coffin together, and conduct an autopsy face to face. If he is really dead, I am willing to see the official. " Everyone listened to him and agreed to investigate the matter. People are noisy, you push me, and they come to Liu Ling's grave together. Too many cooks dig graves and open coffins. When they saw it, they were all shocked: Liu Ling has been dead for three years, and she still looks the same! Suddenly, I saw him open his sleepy eyes, stretched out his arms, yawned a lot, and a stream of alcohol came out. Suddenly, he straightened up and shouted, "This wine is terrible! Really suffocating me! "
Seeing this scene, Liu Ling's wife was mixed with sadness and joy, and she was puzzled. She was about to hug Du Kang and ask a question. Suddenly, she saw two golden lights flying in the air. Du Kang took Liu Ling's hand and stood in the cloud, nodding to everyone. Liu Ling's wife shouted to Liu Ling, "Where are you going? Where are you going? "
Du Kang threw the money on his shoulder, and it turned into a three-foot white silk. People picked it up and saw two words written on it: If you want to know where Lang Jun is going, Yaochi will visit the Queen Mother. When I looked up again, Du Kang and Liu Ling had disappeared, and only two colorful clouds floated over Ran Ran for nine days.
Some people say that Du Kang and Liu Ling later became immortals and went to heaven. Du Kang deliberately got Liu Ling drunk in the wine shop, just to make him live forever.
