In ancient legends, Du Kang embarked on a journey to search for immortality in pursuit of the ultimate art of brewing. Finally, he met a mysterious immortal who gave him the secret to brewing wine: in addition to the natural fermentation of grains, he also needed to infuse three drops of special blood to make a peerless wine.
Following the guidance of the immortals, Du Kang came to the west entrance of the village when he arrived. There was a quaint rural road that had been honed by time, with twisted neck trees of various shapes on both sides. He waited quietly, waiting for the three destined passersby in fate.
Before long, the first traveler stepped into view was a gentle and refined teacher. Du Kang respectfully bowed and explained the reason in detail. Upon hearing this, the gentleman generously untied his wrist and added the first elegance and knowledge to this fine wine with a drop of blood.
Subsequently, a brave warrior dressed in armor stepped into sight. Upon hearing Du Kang’s request, the military general gave a heroic smile, cut his fingers cleanly, and blood dripped into the bowl, injecting a second dose of courage and boldness into the wine.
However, the search for the third drop of blood made Du Kang extremely anxious. Time was running out, and just as he was almost desperate, he caught a glimpse of a crazed beggar curled up under the crooked neck tree, dressed in tattered clothes and with crooked eyes and mouth. Helpless, Du Kang could only step forward and take a drop of the beggar’s blood as the final finishing touch.
With these three drops of grain essence containing the blood of different souls, Dukang carefully brewed and finally produced a rare wine in the world. In commemoration of the Treaty of the Western Era and the wonder of the Three Bloods, he named this wine “Jiu”.
Nowadays, when people first come to the dining table, they are often gentle and courteous, giving way to each other, just like the blood of a teacher, filling the atmosphere with elegance and politeness. After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere gradually grew stronger, and people became like generals possessed by their bodies, with great enthusiasm and eager to raise their glasses, fully displaying their masculine qualities.
And when drinking to the point of ecstasy, some people are like crazy beggars, speechless and behaving inappropriately, yet inadvertently revealing their most authentic selves and endless joy. This is where the charm of “wine” lies, it can not only inspire people’s elegance and passion, but also allow them to find a moment of release and madness in drunkenness. But remember, although fine wine is good, do not be greedy for it, so as not to get lost in the triple realm brought by those three drops of blood.
