Chapter 53: Countermeasures to Suppress Thieves
Xu Daoyun suddenly interjected: "Since there are so many masters with me, can I not go?"
Huang Yanyao was like being drenched from head to toe by a touch of cold water, she glared at Xu Daoyun angrily, gritted her teeth and said: "Why are you so afraid of things, exterminating the evil tiger cottage is a good thing for the people to eliminate harm, why are you so cowering?"
"No, since you are very sure, it should not make much difference whether I go or not. ”
"You!"
Huang Yanyao's chest rose and fell, and he nodded: "Okay, I don't want to force you, if you don't want to go, you can not go, anyway, we have the chance to win this time, and we don't need you." ”
"Yan Yao. ”
Huang Zuntang snorted lightly, then looked at Xu Daoyun and said with a smile: "Xiaoyou is a sword cultivator, and I am also a sword cultivator, although I don't know what school you are taught from, but the definition of your teacher has told you that sword cultivators, swordsmanship attainments are secondary, and the most important thing is how to cultivate an indomitable sword heart." ”
"Yes. ”
Xu Daoyun nodded.
"Cultivating a sword heart, how easy is it to talk about? If you want to cultivate a sword heart, you need to start from one small thing at a time, it is imperative to exterminate the evil tiger cottage, conform to the principles of heaven, don't you think this is a good opportunity to practice?"
Xu Daoyun lowered his head and pondered, and after a while, he raised his head and said: "What the owner said is reasonable, then I will go to the Evil Tiger Cottage and completely remove this tumor!"
"Good!"
Huang Zuntang laughed and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, his eyes full of appreciation.
Huang Yanyao pursed his lips, thinking that his father would really fool people.
Grunt...
Suddenly, a strange voice sounded, and everyone in the room turned their eyes on Xu Daoyun with strange eyes.
Xu Daoyun was extremely embarrassed, and said with a dry smile: "All the way has been eaten dry food, and the water melts into the stomach, and I can't eat at all." Fang Cai competed with Pei Sixia again, and his stomach was even more empty, and he was hungry. ”
Huang Zuntang said with a smile: "Haha, I was negligent and negligent, come on, hurry, let the room prepare meals, prepare more meat dishes, and send them to the water pavilion." ”
"Yes. ”
The subordinate guarding the door of the study immediately trotted away.
Huang Yanyao pouted and said, "You guy, you really don't have the appearance of sword cultivation at all!"
"People are iron and steel, how can you concentrate on things if you don't fill your stomach?"
"Cut, it's all crooked. ”
......
I have to say that the efficiency of cooking in Huanhua Jianzhuang is extremely high, and a full twelve delicious dishes with color and fragrance are made in just one cup of tea.
The maid was about to leave with a wooden plate, when Xu Daoyun stopped her and asked with a smile, "Isn't there any rice?"
"Huh?"
The maid thought she had misheard, and subconsciously sighed.
"Is there any rice?"
Xu Daoyun asked again.
"Oh, yes, yes, Childe, wait a minute, I'll go and bring it to you. ”
The maid nodded hurriedly and turned to leave.
"No more, three bowls are enough. ”
Xu Daoyun reminded him in a loud voice, but when he turned around, he saw Huang Yanyao and the others looking at him.
He scratched his head and smiled, "I'm not used to eating vegetables without rice." ”
Huang Yanyao said: "Are you a pig, three bowls, I can't kill you!"
The maid went and returned, put three bowls of rice white in front of Xu Daoyun, and asked with a smile: "Childe, do you have any other instructions?"
"Oh, no, thanks. ”
Xu Daoyun shook his head.
Jun Huaiming waved his hand and said, "You all stand down." ”
"Yes. ”
Huang Zuntang smiled: "Let's move the chopsticks." ”
Xu Daoyun picked up the chopsticks and looked at the twelve dishes on the table, only feeling hungry in his mouth.
The 12 dishes are: Pot Roasted Mutton, Fried Fish Noodles in Red Soup, Shredded Beef in Dengying, Dabu Pork Bone Soup, Babao Boat Duck, Taoyuan Chicken Soup, Stuffed Bacon, Four-Flavor Abalone, Shabu Mutton, Roast Lamb Leg, Roast Beef Leg, and Braised Lion's Head.
The taste is really different and evocative.
After eating and drinking, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
Jiang Qing was arranged in a separate courtyard, which was also delicate and elegant.
Originally, Huang Zuntang also wanted to arrange a personal maid to serve him, but Xu Daoyun didn't agree, he didn't call the maid, and he was afraid that he would be disturbed and distracted when cultivating, so it would be worth the loss.
Back in the courtyard, Xu Daoyun was not in a hurry to go to the bed to rest, but sat cross-legged on the ground, recalling the sword moves and mental techniques of the fast and slow twelve swords in his mind, and trying to find out if there were similarities with the sword moves of the Heavenly Dao Sword Gang.
In the next few days, Xu Daoyun stayed in the courtyard of Huanhua Jianzhuang, and almost didn't go out except for breakfast, noon and dinner.
Seven days later, Yan Dengwu knocked on the door of Xu Daoyun's courtyard and called, "Daoyun, Daoyun?"
Click.
The courtyard door opened, and Xu Daoyun asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Yan Dengwu said with a smile: "The masters of the Condor Gang and Feixingzhai are here, and they are discussing in the study how to exterminate the Evil Tiger Cottage, if you have time, go over and listen to it together, everyone knows each other." ”
"It's fine. ”
Xu Daoyun nodded and followed Yan Dengwu towards the study.
When I came to the study, the door was open, and there were maids carrying tea and fruit bowls in and out, and there were also people in the building, with a total of more than a dozen people.
Yan Dengwu said: "The rest of the people have been arranged by the owner of the village to rest in the outer courtyard, after all, this is the territory of Huanhua Sword Village, and so many outsiders cannot be allowed to set foot at will." ”
"As it should be. ”
The two walked into the study, Huang Yanyao saw Xu Daoyun with a cloak, and pouted: "I thought you were dead in the house." ”
Yan Dengwu frowned and said, "Yan Yao, you can't talk like that. ”
Huang Yanyao stuck out his tongue and ran to sit down beside the main seat Huang Zuntang.
Huang Zuntang raised his hand and pressed it, and said, "Everyone please take a seat." ”
When everyone heard this, they pulled out wooden chairs and sat down.
"I think everyone knows what the purpose of this trip is, I won't be verbose, today I gathered everyone in the study, I want to discuss a countermeasure, the evil tiger cottage is built on the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. There are a large number of people in the village, and they are good at bows and arrows, it is not easy to break through the evil tiger cottage, if it is not arranged properly, even if it is finally lucky, it is also a heavy casualty, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”
A middle-aged man nodded and said, "It makes sense, a strong attack is the next step." ”
Another man with sparse hair smiled and said, "In Brother Getian's opinion, what is the best policy?"
Ge Tian said: "Of course it's outwitted. ”
"It's easier said than done. ”
Everyone began to discuss enthusiastically, and one by one countermeasures were proposed, and then they were vetoed, and everyone's expressions were very serious, which was indeed a difficult problem.
Yan Dengwu turned his head sideways and asked in a low voice, "Daoyun, do you have any countermeasures?"
"Yes. ”
Xu Daoyun nodded seriously and naturally.
"Huh?"
Yan Dengwu's eyes widened, and he was puzzled: "Then why didn't you bring it up?"
"Aren't they all talking, I want to see if their countermeasures work or mine. ”
Yan Dengwu rolled his eyes, then rolled his eyes, and whispered, "I'll help you." ”
I saw him stand up, first bowed to the seniors around him, and then said, "Master Zhuang, Daoyun has a way." ”
"Oh?"
Huang Zuntang looked at Xu Daoyun unexpectedly and said with a smile: "Daoyun Xiaoyou, what do you pay attention to, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Ge Tian and the others all looked unconcerned, in their opinion, what good ideas a milky and undried hairy boy could have, it was just to make people laugh when they said it.
Xu Daoyun stood up and said, "In my opinion, we don't have to take the initiative at all. ”
Huang Zuntang smiled and asked, "Why is this?"
The owner of the village said that the Evil Tiger Cottage was built on the mountainside, condescending, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If we force our attack, we will surely suffer heavy losses and be in vain. ”
"Well, go ahead. ”
"But this is precisely where their lifeblood lies, the Evil Tiger Cottage is located halfway up the mountain, there must be no wells, and there are many people, and the water reserve can only last a few days at most. At that time, we only need to guard the only way down the mountain, cut off its water source, and force it out of the village for a decisive battle, when they are sleepy and lacking horses, and the morale of the army is weak, we can go all out and cut down the grass and eradicate the roots!"
Huang Zuntang laughed, clapped his hands and said, "Good way, good way, Daoyun Xiaoyou has also read the book of soldiers?"
Xu Daoyun nodded: "I've read a few books." ”
"The so-called big words but not good reason, their learning is also empty. Xiaoyou can apply what he has learned, it seems that he has learned the essence, yes, really good. ”
Huang Zuntang's face was full of appreciation, and the more he looked at Xu Daoyun, the more satisfied he became.
Huang Yanyao snorted lightly, but he still approved of his idea in his heart, although this guy was timid and afraid of death, but it was still somewhat useful when it was critical.
