Chapter 22: Old Batou
Looking at the barracks built of bluestone, Long Ge was very satisfied, this is a bit of a military camp. Tall, wide and solemn, the jade-paved beds were neatly arranged, spaced enough for the soldiers to store some personal belongings. There were 600 beds, and one barracks was enough for a squad of 500 people.
There are six such barracks in this barracks, which means that the standing strength should be 3,000 people. The barracks are surrounded by arrow towers and towers, and the six barracks enclose a huge square of several thousand square meters, which is used to gather troops in peacetime, and of course there should be more use for collective drills in the future.
The Wen Fei brothers have a residence in the leading city, so naturally they will not live in the barracks. Long Ge was arranged in a bed collapsed in the middle, and the jade bed collapsed to the touch very comfortably, and it felt a little warm in winter and cool in summer. When Long Ge just lay down to feel it, a smiling face appeared in front of him. It was Ji Li Gang, who had mentioned himself several times, one of the first ten-person formation, from a very small affiliated family.
I saw Ji Li Gang smile and said, "Long Ge Ji Room, you said please drink, do you want to go?"
This memory is good, Long Ge smiled: "Of course please, but can I go out to drink when I get to the barracks?"
"Of course! There's nothing else to do in the barracks, it's not drinking for money. Just talk to the guy. ”
Sure enough, Long Ge decided not to ask this kind of nonsense in the future, and the military camp was solemn, it was a military camp, not an army. Go to the local customs, whether he is vulgar or vulgar, Long Ge then turned over and said, "Then go." ”
Ji Li Gang shouted loudly: "Please drink in the Dragon Song Room, who else is going?"
Huhula only gathered five or six people, but someone said, "You go, you go, we will play with money in a while." Don't forget to bring back two jars of good wine!"
Ji Li Gang laughed and said: "Okay, when we are full of food and drink, we will give you two jars of urine ......"
The man also laughed and said, "I'll take it now, just cut it to stuff your mouth and drink it, and save the coins in the notebook room......"
"Die, you can keep the pig food from the dining hall......"
"Pig food is for you to eat......"
It can be seen that Ji Li Gang is very popular in this team, and he keeps joking with people passing by. Kicking all the way out of the barracks, Long Ge asked Ji Ligang strangely: "Don't you want to talk to the guy?"
"I'm the captain. Among the six people behind him, a young man with a relatively calm face said with a smile.
"He's our gang leader boasting about his father's strength, but he's a direct member of his father's family. Ji Li Gang also smiled. Although this Kua's father's power comes from the direct line of the Kua's father's family, it is not a branch that holds real power. Although he is a witch cultivator, his strength is not too high, so he is only a team leader in Wen Fei's team. However, his defense is very strong, and he is also the person who Long Ge casually selected when he first lined up the first ten-person formation, so he came out to drink together.
Well, defeated by them. When he left the barracks, there was a sentry, but there was no registration and no one inquired, so Shi Shiran went out.
"Where are you going? This is the first time I've been to this city. Long Ge asked.
"Don't worry, just bring the coins. Take you to an absolutely nice place. Ji Li Gang said.
A group of eight people turned left and right on the street, and occasionally people came and went to trade on the street, and they were neither frightened nor surprised when they saw eight people, but just calmly doing their own thing. After a while, I came to a less conspicuous storefront. The liquor at the door looked a little old, and the store was not large, with only seven or eight cases. There are no bartenders in the store, only two elderly couples run the shop.
"Lao Batou, good wine and good meat are put on the table, and I will take care of your business today. Ji Li just shouted as soon as he entered the door. After shouting, he turned his head to Long Ge and said, "Don't look at the place here, it's a must, and the beast meat is a must, and there is a super tonic soup." ”
The old man, who was called Lao Batou, smiled innocently, and the wrinkles on his face swayed slightly. However, the hands and feet are fast, and as soon as the eight people are seated, the wine and meat have already been put on the table. Long Ge said with a smile: "I heard that the soup here is a must, I have eaten a lot of wine and meat recently, but there is a bowl of soup that warms the stomach first?"
"Brother Longge is strange, if you don't drink, you have to drink soup first. Ji Li Gang said that he had already made a bowl of wine with the six people of Kuafuli first, and was tearing the flesh of the beast.
Lao Batou smiled: "It takes time to make soup. However, there is a newly made peach blossom soup made by the old woman, do you want a bowl of it?"
"That's for the best. Long Ge said.
As soon as he drank a bowl of wine with Kuafuli, the peach blossom soup was served by Lao Batou, and it was really fragrant. Lao Batou said with a smile: "This peach blossom is a fresh peach blossom taken from the three-hundred-mile peach forest, and it is also good for the cultivation of witchcraft. The old man settled here because of this good mouth, so he praised his father. ”
Long Ge tasted the bowl, but it was sweet and soft, and there was no bitterness. After entering the abdomen, a warm force swam through the whole body, and Long Ge praised: "Sure enough, it is a good craft! This soup has no bitter taste, I guess it used witch power when boiling, right? I didn't think that the second elder was actually a witch cultivator, it was really disrespectful!"
"Wu Xiu, Wu Xiu, what is it to cultivate?" the old man sighed softly, neither admitting nor denying it.
At this time, Long Ge suddenly felt a twist in his backpack, and the little white snake reached into the peach blossom soup bowl from Long Ge's shoulder and sucked it all. Long Ge was taken aback, this little white snake never showed its head when there were people, why was it so bold this time? After a closer look, he found that the snake body of the little white snake was no longer the original smooth, but more prominent, but this was not the time to take a closer look. I saw that after the little white snake drank the soup, he made a pleasant "sizzle", and then quickly retracted his backpack.
When the old man saw the little white snake, he sighed lightly, and then chuckled: "I'll go and serve another bowl." ”
Looking at the back of Lao Batou, Ji Ligang asked in a low voice: "Are you sure that Lao Batou is a witch cultivator, you haven't seen it for so many years?"
Kua Fuli also said: "Indeed, there is not a trace of magic power fluctuations. Could it be his wife? No, she doesn't have any magic power fluctuations? Surely not, if they were witch cultivators, they wouldn't have been beaten so badly last year?"
"That's right, if it wasn't for the persuasion of the guests last year, his youngest son who almost led the fire order was beaten to death, how could it be a witch cultivator?" Ji Li Gang said.
Long Ge is also very strange, but judging from the sound of the old man seeing the little white snake whispering, this old man should not be as simple as an ordinary person. Long Ge replied, "How do I know?" But it seems that he neither admitted nor denied it just now?"
"Maybe he's distracted?"
Kua Fuli diverted the topic and said, "I really didn't find out before, it turns out that Brother Long Ge still has a spirit beast by his side. ”
Ji Li Gang said: "You mean that white snake? It is a spirit animal." ”
Kua's father Li smiled: "Now I just have a trace of spiritual power, and it can be said that it is a spirit beast or it is not." It is estimated that it will take many years to become a real spirit animal. ”
While a few people were talking, Lao Batou served a bowl of peach blossom soup again, and Long Ge raised the wine bowl and said: "It seems that the old man is also a person with a story, I have wine here, can I listen to the old man tell the story?"
The old man smiled silently, took the wine bowl and took a sip, and said, "Guest, do you know what a witch is?
