Chapter 198: Overnight Stay Among the Cliffs
The procession runs from east to west in a line between the cliffs. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The rain rained heavily for two hours, and it didn't stop.
Yan Juncao had already sent someone over to transfer Li Tianqi and the other three to the front team, because he wanted to consult Li Tianqi's meaning, if he needed to go back and forth to it every time, it would be too time-consuming, and he had begun to appreciate Li Tianqi, staying by his side was like having an extra military advisor, of course, the deeper level was due to the sudden appearance of monsters here, so that a Taoist priest who knew magic was always safer by his side.
Due to the endless heavy rain at this time, Yan Juncao had no choice but to let everyone camp here for the night. He thought to himself that there was a natural barrier here, easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as he held the positions at both ends, he was not afraid of any enemy attacking at night.
This place is long and narrow, and there are more than a foot wide, because the road is built by digging stones on the mountainside, and the road is a natural barrier composed of mountains. Although it couldn't be drenched in the heavy rain, more than 200 people couldn't gather around them, so they had to be distributed like a long snake.
Li Tianqi had dozens of spears propped up at both ends of the team, so that it would be difficult for those monsters with low cultivation to rush over from the beginning to the end, and it would be more effective to prevent huge beasts from attacking at night.
At this time, the sky was still dark, fortunately this team was not a formal army, but it was also always equipped with firewood and forage, and the soldiers received some firewood and grass from some carriages, and each of them made a good floor shop, still as before, seven or eight people gathered around and chatted.
Li Tianqi and the others sat cross-legged next to Yan Juncao, opposite them were three experienced soldiers, judging from the demeanor of these soldiers, they all seemed to feel that Yan Juncao intended to carry Li Tianqi, and naturally they did not dare to slack off, but there was occasionally a look of contempt in their eyes, but their words were extremely polite, they may be polite to Li Tianqi, but they looked at Nangong Shuo and Qin Guo as if they hadn't seen them.
They gathered around and roasted an elk hunted in the forest at noon on the fire, Qin Guo had learned some cooking skills, and the roasted things naturally had an attractive aroma.
He sprinkled some sea salt and chili pepper on top of it, and whispered, "It's ready to eat." ”
At this time, a gust of night wind blew, and the chill was gusting, and everyone felt that the hot and spicy barbecue in front of them was extremely delicious, and they were already secretly salivating.
Yan Juncao took out a short knife, cut a piece of venison leg meat for Li Tianqi, and said to the entourage Bing Yong who was sitting next to him: "How can you eat venison without wine, you go and get a wine bag, and drink some old wine tonight to warm up your body." ”
The entourage Bing Yong got up and walked away, and after a while, he brought it, and also took a stack of sea bowls, he put the sea bowl in front of Yan Juncao first, Yan Juncao nodded approvingly, and then the soldier Yong put another one in front of Li Tianqi and walked back to his position and sat down, and after taking a sea bowl from each of the two soldiers beside him, he handed the remaining two sea bowls to Qin Guo: "You can divide them." ”
Nangong Shuo saw it in his eyes, he knew in his heart that Bing Yong obviously looked down on him, so he didn't make a sound, and took the sea bowl handed over by Qin Guo.
Li Tianqi said to Yan Juncao at this time: "Juncao, I don't know how to drink. This wine is still ......"
"Hey......" Yan Juncao tilted his face and said: "This is not wartime, drink some wine to warm up your body, and you can still be strong." How can a man not drink. Besides, tonight's formation, with spears at both ends, will not be anything, so you can drink it with confidence. With that, he stretched out his hand to the entourage Bing Yong and asked for the wine bag, and poured a full bowl for Li Tianqi.
Li Tianqi secretly complained to himself, and hurriedly said: "This is too much...... You'll get drunk later, and you'll be in trouble. ”
Yan Juncao smiled: "No, aren't we still here?" Eat barbecue and drink a little wine, drive away the cold in the rainy night, we are not asleep in the big tent now, this day should be a quilt, the ground should be a bed, the humidity is heavy. ”
Nangong Shuo also said: "Brother Apocalypse, Yan Juncao is right, it's okay to drink some wine to warm up your body, and you can't shirk it after the Apocalypse." ”
Yan Juncao also poured himself a full bowl, and then handed the wine bag to Nangong Shuo, "You divide it, and the rest is all mine." ”
Nangong Shuo was already very happy when he smelled the wine, "This is the first-class Du Kang, right?" ”
"Yo?" Yan Juncao's eyes opened: "You understand this wine just by smelling it?" ”
Seeing Yan Juncao's expression, there is no need to ask if this wine must be Du Kang.
Li Tianqi doesn't drink alcohol, and he can't tell the difference between good wine and bad wine. It's just that both of them seem to have a great deal of research on wine.
Nangong Shuo nodded and said: "Jun Cao doesn't know, although the little one doesn't know how to make wine, he also likes to drink, and somehow he seems to have a natural understanding of this wine." ”
As he spoke, he poured wine, not only filling his own bowl, but also filling Qin Guo and the two soldiers, but when he came to the entourage soldiers, he handed him the wine bag.
The entourage Bing Yong naturally understood that Nangong Shuo did it on purpose, but he didn't say it, he just glared at Nangong Shuo fiercely, Nangong Shuo didn't care, pretended that nothing happened and walked back to his position.
Yan Juncao laughed: "It seems that we are all gathered together today, but it is also fate, come and come, do it first...... Oh no, drink it slowly, take a sip first. He raised the sea bowl, and Li Tianqi reluctantly followed suit. Others, of course, did not dare to slack off.
The wine looked unusually clear, but Li Tianqifang took a small sip into his mouth, but he felt that his mouth was full of hot and spicy feelings, and he almost didn't choke and squirt out, Yan Juncao seemed to see that Li Tianqi really couldn't drink, but he didn't care, and continued: "Don't be in a hurry, you take it in your mouth, swallow it slowly, and you will naturally get used to it if you drink too much." ”
Nangong Shuo approached the edge of the bowl, his nose fluttering, "It's really fragrant." He also took a sip, took it in his mouth and swallowed it slowly, and suddenly felt that his mouth was fragrant and extremely comfortable.
Yan Juncao saw that although the two of them were drinking, they showed different demeanors, and felt a little fun.
Qin Guo picked up the sea bowl and drank half of it in one gulp, but his face did not change, and the arrogance when he drank was the opposite of his shy look.
Li Tianqi's cheeks were crimson at this time, but Qin Guo's face did not change.
Nangong Shuo saw this scene and laughed.
Yan Juncao asked, "Nangong Shuo, what are you laughing at?" ”
Nangong Shuo said with a smile: "I laugh at these two brothers of mine, Li Tianqi, when he is not drinking, he is shrewd and capable, and he is full of pride, but Qin Guo is the opposite, he is usually silent, but he seems to have a large amount of this wine, which is indeed powerful." ”
Yan Juncao looked at the two of them, thought about it for a while, and sure enough, "Hey, don't say it, it's really like this." ”
Qin Guo said: "It's great to use this wine as a condiment for dishes." Roast venison like this, drizzle with some wine, and pour it to remove the smell of the venison. ”
Nangong Shuo shook his head and said: "Qin Guo, it's not that the elder brother said you, you just drank it, but you said this inexplicable thing, do you know how precious this wine is?" If Yan Juncao hadn't been happy and rewarded us with some to eat, you wouldn't have been able to drink it, but you said that you would use this wine as a condiment, this is really a tyrannical thing. ”
Qin Guo poured another half bowl and wiped his mouth, "Brother Nangong, I won't say it." ”
Yan Juncao saw that Nangong Shuo was really a wine taster, and every sip must be savored before swallowing, and he, Qin Guo and the others were all people who could drink, but there was a lack of a tasting process.
At this time, Li Tianqi grabbed the venison and took a bite, swallowing it every time he chewed it, he already felt a little dizzy, as if he had been drugged, and the conversations of these people seemed to have only ringed in his ears, but he couldn't understand what they were saying.
Yan Juncao patted Li Tianqi's shoulder and asked softly, "Are you okay?" ”
Li Tianqi felt that his head was heavy, his mind was not clear, and he couldn't help but use his internal strength, who knew that it would be okay if he was not lucky, and the wine gas rushed to his head under his luck, and he suddenly lay back and fell asleep.
Seeing this, Nangong Shuo hurriedly stepped forward to look at his expression, and said to Yan Juncao: "It must be drunk." ”
Yan Juncao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'll wake up in a while." Let's eat first. ”
And they began to drink wine and eat meat again......
Li Tianqi was drunk for a while, and sure enough, he slowly got up again, and when he secretly recited the mantra again to transport the true qi of internal strength, the drunkenness gradually disappeared.
Nangong Shuo asked with concern, "Are you okay?" ”
Li Tianqi nodded and said, "It's okay, it's just that I haven't adapted to it for a while." ”
Yan Juncao smiled and said, "Li Tianqi, come, drink the wine in your bowl." Guaranteed that you won't get drunk after drinking. ”
Li Tianqi wanted to shake his head and refuse, but when he saw that everyone else was looking at him, he had to raise the sea bowl again and take a small sip gently.
Yan Juncao laughed: "Look, I said it." You drink the bowl slowly, and you may want to chase me for a drink in the future. ”
Everyone laughed along......
When they were full of food and drink, they all went back to their places to rest.
The rain stopped in the middle of the night, and the cold suddenly appeared, but the fire in the bonfire gradually dimmed, because the firewood prepared was limited, and the veterans did not dare to distribute it to each person at will, so the bonfire could only last for half the night, and the fire naturally gradually dimmed.
Seven men with spears walked back and forth among the sleeping people in the east and west, and in the middle of the night, these men on duty yawned from time to time.
Two of them bumped into each other, and one of them whispered, "It's about to change shifts, right?" I'm so tired. ”
The other also said in a deep voice: "It should be soon, there is a natural barrier here, how can anything come over, unless you climb up from under the cliff or come down from above." ”
The previous person smiled slightly: "You think it's a monster." You can go up and down as you want on this cliff. ”
The other man suddenly said, "Silence, what are you listening to?" ”
At this moment, both of them heard a slight sound from the bottom of the cliff......
