Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors
Chapter 574 Poisoning and Escape
Xu Chu greeted everyone one by one.
Although these people knew about Xu Chu's past acts of greed and had some dissatisfaction with him, they even looked down on him.
But Xu Chu is still the chief brewer of Wangyuelou, so we still have to give him some face.
Old Qian coughed twice, "Now that everyone has arrived, let's begin our drinking."
They were all high-ranking members of Wangyue Tower. Although they weren't exactly extremely busy, they still had their own things to do, so they made their decision as soon as possible and then left.
Xu Chu raised his hand and took out a specially made wine jar, which was sealed with layers of restrictions.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, wondering what was going on.
What is so special about this wine, or how precious is it, that it is preserved in this way?
Some connoisseurs even had some expectations, thinking that being treated like this by Xu Chu meant that the wine must be extraordinary.
Little did he know, Xu Chu was being cautious because he was worried that the poison might leak and affect other items in his storage ring, or that he might accidentally touch them.
After removing all the restrictions, the lid of the wine jar was finally opened.
"Whoosh..."
A unique fragrance instantly filled the air, leaving all ten people present astonished.
"Wow! This taste is so unique."
"Just by smelling the aroma, you can tell it's definitely good wine!"
"Brother Xu is truly exceptional in brewing."
At this moment, they suddenly realized that Xu Chu's lack of ambition and vision was not a real flaw.
He's just a winemaker; as long as the wine he makes is good and tastes good, that's enough.
As for bringing Mr. Li back for the next assessment, that remains to be discussed.
Xu Chu poured a large bowl for each of them, and with a wave of his hand, the bowl filled with fine wine flew to them.
"Everyone, please."
Although they were already impatient, they remained calm. One of them even pretended to be serious and took out a small jade wine cup, drinking from it one cup after another.
After they tasted the Dream Back Spirit Wine one after another, they all spoke with affirmation and full of praise.
"Excellent! Excellent wine!!"
"It has been a long time since I have tasted such a special spirit wine!"
"If this spirit wine is put on the shelves, it won't be long before it becomes our Moon Gazing Pavilion's signature spirit wine!!"
"Brother Xu is truly a genius!!"
Before drinking it, they smelled the aroma and thought it was probably a good wine, but they couldn't be sure yet.
But after tasting it, they all felt that the wine was better than they had expected.
In a short while, they finished the large bowl of wine one after another.
Xu Chu said, "It seems that you all think this spirit wine is up to standard and can be put on the shelves for sale at our Wangyue Tower."
They affirmed it repeatedly.
"Of course it's qualified. If this wine isn't good enough, then no wine is qualified to be sold!"
"Brother Xu, do you have any more? Could you give me a few jars to drink first?"
Some shameless individuals even started asking for drinks on the spot.
Xu Chu said, "Since you all think it's feasible, I'll go back now and brew it in large quantities. I'll send some over to you all later."
Although Xu Chu had taken measures to mitigate the toxicity, ensuring that the poison wouldn't take effect immediately after drinking it, the effects couldn't be masked for long.
Therefore, Xu Chu needed to leave as soon as possible to prevent them from discovering that he was poisoned and launching a counterattack before he died, or from spreading the news and not giving him time to escape.
Xu Chu didn't even give them a chance to stay and talk before leaving in a hurry.
He looked excited, as if he had just received recognition and was eager to get started.
Xu Chu's acting skills have always been excellent, and Xu Qingzhou has praised them highly. Naturally, none of the people present noticed anything amiss.
They were even sighing.
"This kid, despite his flaws, is really suited to be the chief brewer."
"Perhaps he himself realized his problems, which is why he is trying so hard to make amends. It can be considered that he has turned over a new leaf."
"In any case, given the quality of this spirit wine, it will definitely sell well once it's on the shelves. If he doesn't cause any more trouble in the future, I think he's definitely more suited to this position."
The others nodded in agreement, clearly showing that they all agreed with this statement.
As for Old Li, although we have worked together for many years, he is indeed not as good as Xu Chu.
From Wangyuelou's perspective, everyone would choose Xu Chu.
Old Qian saw all of this and understood that even if she forced herself to side with Old Li, Old Li would not be able to win against Xu Chu.
"This wine is really delicious, I need another bowl."
Leave some for me.
"Hey, hey, don't steal it!"
The jar of Dream Back Spirit Wine was quickly divided up and drunk up by them.
The poison in the alcohol was slowly seeping into their limbs and bones.
It's a pity they didn't use their internal energy to absorb and digest the spiritual wine, otherwise the poison would have invaded them much faster.
At this moment, Xu Chu had already left the sacred mountain where Wangyue Tower was located, and he did not choose to run far away.
Instead, he stopped near an ordinary small mountain village, went into the mountains near the village, entered the hiding place he had already dug, and activated the various formations.
Then, he would undergo a transformation that altered his appearance, demeanor, and even aura, and finally take a pill to induce a state of suspended animation.
If no one disturbs him, Xu Chu can sleep for at least ten years. If someone comes nearby and accidentally triggers the restrictions he has set up, he will wake up prematurely.
The most dangerous place is the safest.
Xu Chu knew that what he had done would definitely cause a huge upheaval in Wangyue Tower, resulting in heavy losses for the tower.
Therefore, Wangyuelou will definitely not let him go; they will search the ground three feet deep to find him.
The search for Xu Chu will definitely spread throughout the entire Tianyuan Realm.
Therefore, it doesn't really matter where you hide, so it's better to stay in a very ordinary place that's close to the Wangyuelou headquarters.
