Capítulo 8: Memories Of Spring Brook
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Liang Yi held his junior sister's small hand and spent a lot of effort to pass through the dense crowd and navigate through Panyang Town.
After a series of familiar twists and turns, the two of them arrived at a remote alley. A small shop without a plaque was at the end of the alley.
"Senior Brother, what is this place? And why are you so familiar with it?" Su Youyi looked curiously at the shop not far away. She did not even hesitate asking Liang Yi a question.
"Don't worry about these details. This restaurant's specialty food is the best in the world. I guarantee that you'll never forget it after eating it," Liang Yi said to Su Youyi confidently.
He was not exaggerating. The taste of this restaurant was really the best in the world. It was one of his favorite dishes in his previous life, but this was not his true purpose for coming here.
He came here mainly to do a mission, a hidden mission.
This mission was very simple. He only needed to answer one question. If the answer was correct, the mission would be completed. This was also one of the most difficult questions since the opening of Profound Mystery. This was because many versions had been released, but no one had answered correctly. Until he played, no one had completed it.
However, Liang Yi was confident because he had actually already gotten the answer in his previous life. It was just that he had been increasing his chef proficiency for his alternate account at that time and had transmigrated before he could answer on his main account.
Under Su Youyi's expectant gaze, Liang Yi pushed the door open and led her in.
The area of the shop was not big. Without the waiter, it looked extremely deserted. To be precise, there were no customers at all. However, unexpectedly, the decoration of the shop was very elegant, making people feel comfortable the moment they entered.
When the middle-aged shopkeeper, who was sleeping on the counter, heard that a customer had come, he hurriedly sat up and greeted Liang Yi and Su Youyi with a smile.
"Sir, what do you want to eat? The menu is on the wall. Please order whatever you want. If it's not delicious, please tell me. Don't hesitate to be frank."
Hearing this, Liang Yi almost burst out laughing. He had heard this sentence countless times in the past, but he did not think that it had any deeper meaning. However, knowing the truth, he almost laughed until tears fell.
He suppressed his laughter and did not look at the shopkeeper. Instead, he said to Su Youyi, "Order whatever you want to eat. I have money."
He knew that the menu of this restaurant was not fixed. It changed every day. He had never seen a repetition, so no matter what Su Youyi chose, it was something he had never eaten before.
Su Youyi looked at her senior brother and then at the white wall behind the shopkeeper, which was filled with recipes.
"I want to eat Qin Sangyu's green branch, the phoenix's three heads, and the summer oriole." Su Youyi excitedly picked three dishes that she was most interested in and turned to look at Liang Yi, wanting to ask for his opinion.
"Shopkeeper, these are the only three dishes. Oh right, serve a bottle of Spring Brook," Liang Yi added.
The shopkeeper stared at Liang Yi with a strange expression. There seemed to be stars in his eyes. It was unknown how he knew about Spring Brook.
Liang Yi looked calm and unmoved. He pulled his junior sister to a seat by the window and sat down.
The shopkeeper shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He was just running a shop. He just had to serve whatever the customer ordered.
He turned around and wiped the names of the dishes that Su Youyi had ordered off the wall. He turned around and went to the kitchen. His shop never made the same dishes.
Liang Yi and Su Youyi did not have to wait for long before the shopkeeper brought the dishes over. There were three dishes, two bowls of rice, and a small bottle of fruit wine. Just from the looks alone, the three dishes were really eye-catching. It was not a description, but really physically eye-catching.
Upon closer inspection, one would discover that every dish was glowing. Not only did it not make the dishes look strange, but it also stimulated one's appetite.
"Come, try it. His dishes change every day. Although I've never eaten these dishes, the taste will definitely not disappoint."
Liang Yi picked a few pieces of meat that looked appetizing and placed them in his junior sister's bowl.
"Eat more. You're growing up. You can't lose weight from hunger. Otherwise, my heart will ache."
Hearing her senior brother's concerned words, Su Youyi rolled her eyes at him. How could he make a girl eat so much? What if she gained weight?
However, she was still very curious about her senior brother's recommendation. She picked up her bowl and took a sip. When her taste buds tasted the dish, her eyes instantly lit up. It was so fragrant!
Looking at the young girl eating quickly in front of him, Liang Yi hurriedly joined the battle. He was afraid that he would only be able to eat white rice alone if he stared any longer.
The two of them had a large appetite to begin with, so it did not take long for them to finish eating. They collapsed on the stools and rubbed their stomachs clockwise.
After resting for a while, Liang Yi opened the bottle of Spring Brook and poured a cup for himself and his junior sister.
"Can I drink? It's fruit wine. The alcohol content isn't high." Liang Yi did not know if this was considered persuading a minor to drink.
"Senior Brother, don't forget that I'm already a cultivator of the third realm. This wine is like plain water to me." Su Youyi was very dissatisfied with her senior brother treating her as a child. She was clearly more mature than many adult women.
Hearing this, Liang Yi did not say anything else and handed her the wine glass in his hand.
After seeing his junior sister take the wine glass, Liang Yi raised his own and toasted Su Youyi before downing it in one gulp.
"Thank you for saving me. Otherwise, I don't know if I would have been able to walk away." Liang Yi's words were sincere.
"You're my senior brother. You once saved me with your life. It's only right for me to save you. There's definitely no other reason."
Su Youyi lowered her head and her body was a little awkward. She really did not expect Liang Yi to bring her here. However, her gaze was a little blank. Her senior brother had indeed lost his memory, but after losing his memory, would he not only treat her as his junior sister? Could he…
At the thought of this, Su Youyi suddenly knocked her head and quickly erased this embarrassing thought. She picked up her wine glass and raised her head to drink.
Liang Yi was a little stunned. He did not expect this junior sister to drink so quickly. Without any more toasts, Liang Yi could only finish the fruit wine in the cup in one gulp.
It was still a familiar smell. The fragrance of the spiritual fruit and the fragrance of the sake blended together, and a strange floral fragrance faintly appeared in his nose.
When he thought about it carefully, the taste of the wine changed again. This time, it was no longer cool and refreshing. Instead, it made him feel a little warm. It was like the rising sun shining on the rivers in the mountains. The aftertaste was really endless.
It was as if they were in spring, feeling relaxed.
"Ding! Congratulations on tasting the wine [Spring Brook]. You have received an increase in all attributes."
He opened the attribute panel and took a look. He realized that he had no friends. [All attributes +5. The effect will last for 24 hours.]
"The sun rises from the river, and the flowers are redder than the fire. The river water is as green as blue in spring. How can I not miss Spring Brook?"
"As expected of Spring Brook, a rare wine in the world," Liang Yi praised generously.
Su Youyi nodded in agreement. The taste of the wine made her yearn for more. Not only was it not intoxicating, but it also filled her with strength.
"Sir, you're really a great literary expert. Can I have this poem be engraved on the plaque of the door? I was just worried about not knowing what to show at the door. Now that I've heard this, I know!" The shopkeeper was standing at the side.
