35. Chapter 35
I still eat chicken at night, shredded chicken and chicken soup are used to cook porridge, the big rooster has a lot of fat, Xia Bilei picked one by one and squeezed the oil, and got a big bowl of yellow and clear oil.
After blanching the wild vegetables, they are fried in chicken fat and are very fragrant, leaving only a faint bitter taste that swirls between the teeth, but the more delicious it is when chewed.
"I thought wild vegetables had always been so unpalatable." The little fat man took the remaining vegetable juice to pour it into the rice, "It turns out that the method is different, why didn't Sister Bilei do this before, we don't have to eat wild vegetable soup that is rare to die for months." ”
"Where's the oil? Where's the salt? "It's strange that Wuda is so stingy and willing to let them put more salt.
Sure enough, she and Qin Mao ate half of the dinner, and the little fat man ate more than half of it alone, Xia Bilei found with some sorrow that she couldn't pay too much attention to table manners when eating with the little fat man, otherwise she would have nothing to eat.
The place where they spent the night was a cave, and Xia Bilei asked if she wanted to keep vigil to prevent wild beasts, after all, they had all been Wuda vigils before.
"Don't bother." Qin Mao took out some medicinal powder and sprinkled it at the mouth of the cave and the place where they were sleeping, "Okay, you can sleep." ”
The little fat man looked skeptical, "Does this really work?" What if the wind blows away? ”
What he said was very true, Qin Mao thought about soaking the medicinal powder in water and sprinkled it around.
"Wow, fat, you see the ants are walking away, it's really working." Xia Bilei exclaimed in surprise, "Mao, what kind of medicinal herb is this, tell me, I won't be afraid of mosquito bites in the summer in the future." ”
Qin Mao took out the plants she picked during the day and told the little fat man and Xia Bilei about the usefulness one by one.
Xia Bilei suddenly realized, stared at the plant in his hand with a small stick and unconsciously drew it on the ground, Qin Mao nodded with satisfaction, as the master's favorite studious student; Looking at the little fat man again, he was staring at the medicinal herbs in his hand and drooling, and said to himself, "It looks delicious, I don't know how about stir-frying with chicken fat?" ”
Foodie! Eat to death! Qin Mao was furious, put the plants in front of the little fat man, and insisted that he memorize the names and uses before letting him sleep.
Xia Bilei snickered, Ah Mao is really poisonous and soft-hearted, obviously afraid that the little fat man will be too greedy and accidentally eat poisonous plants.
***
The next day, the three children were ready to go on the road with great ambition, and even though the road ahead was still as far away, all three of them were full of confidence and pride.
Xia Bilei pointed to the direction of the rising sun like the protagonist of a hot-blooded comic, and said in high spirits: "Let's go!" Our goal is to conquer the world! "The goal of the sea of stars is too far away, the ship is not safe, and the plane has not yet been invented, so it is more reliable to conquer the world.
"Wow!" The little fat man was excited, clapping his hands, "Hurry up and get on the horse!" Let's conquer the world! ”
"Herod!" Probably moved by their pride, the dark horse, who had rested for a day and a half, hissed energetically, and followed the song to the sky, no, roaring towards the sky!
Qin Mao comforted the overexcited black horse speechlessly, and the carriage would overturn if he was excited.
"Okay, let's go! By the way, who drives the horses! ”
Xia Bilei's expectant eyes looked at the little fat man, and the little fat man also looked at Xia Bilei expectantly.
In the end, the eyes of the two looked at Qin Mao silently.
"What are you doing looking at me! I know how to ride a horse, yes, but I've never driven a carriage. Qin Mao glared back at the two of them with their expectant gazes, how could he do something that only such an inferior person could do, "And I can't drive a horse alone, the road is so far, you also have to learn." ”
Xia Bilei withdrew her gaze and touched her chin deeply, Okay, the premise of conquering the world is to conquer the horses first!
None of the three of them had learned to drive horses, but they had all seen how others drove horses, and as the saying goes, they had never seen a pig walk and eaten pork, so they found an open space to practice.
The little fat man was eager to try and was the first to jump up.
"You guys go to the back and sit down, I'll catch the car!" The little fat man is high-spirited, and the posture of holding a horsewhip is like a general returning victorious with a big sword / spear!
Qin Mao and Xia Bilei took a step back, and Xia Bilei squeezed out a smile, "This...... Chubby, you better get used to it first. ”
Qin Mao also nodded in agreement, he was still young and didn't want to die early.
"Humph! You look down on me! The little fat man was greatly dissatisfied, "I can learn such a simple thing as driving a horse, and the horse runs!" Drive! With a gentle whip, the horse tread restlessly on its hooves.
"Why don't you move?" The little fat man muttered and flicked another whip, "Drive! ”
The horse still didn't move, and the little fat man was ruthless, and he threw it down with a whip with some strength.
"Herod!" The horses neighed and ran away, and the little fat man in the carriage was so frightened that he almost didn't fall.
"Stop, stop!" The little fat man lay down, and his cry came from the wind, "Uncle Ma, Ma Zuzong, I beg you, when I go home, I will definitely find you a few beautiful mares to be daughters-in-law." ”
Qin Mao shook his head and said loudly while chasing after him, "Fatty, you tighten the reins and stop the horse first!" ”
With Qin Mao's help, the little fat man pulled the horse over in shock.
Xia Bilei laughed happily, "Hahaha, fatty, you call driving horses?" You call this coaxing a horse, and this is the result of begging grandpa to sue grandma? ”
The little fat man was not convinced, "You can do it!" After speaking, he handed the whip to Xia Bilei.
Xia Bilei waved her hand, "I don't need a whip, corporal punishment is wrong, let's educate love!" ”
Xia Bilei was tempting and brushing the grass to the horse, probably the education of love really worked, the horse walked slowly, Xia Bilei triumphantly raised the scissor hand of victory towards the two.
"Alright, I know how to drive the horse, let's hit the road." Xia Bilei groped for a while and said confidently.
The three of them also agreed, there is no water in this place, and it is convenient for Wuda to bury his own brothers, but it is inconvenient to have no water, not to mention the reason why Qin Mao, who loves cleanliness, wants to take a bath, and there is not much water left for cooking food
Qin Mao is a lazy person, since Xia Bilei can drive the horse, he can sleep lazily in the carriage, so good.
On the winding mountain road, the carriage slowly moved forward with its hooves.
Half an hour later, the little fat man finally couldn't help it: "Sister Bilei, don't you have to hurry?" "At this speed, they have been in Buyan Prefecture for half a year.
Qin Mao: ZZZ...... (The carriage is too slow to sleep.) )
"Oh, then I'll hurry." Things were too smooth, Xia Bilei got a little carried away and pulled the horse rope, "Horse, drive!" ”
The dark horse was still slow and one step at a time, Xia Bilei pulled the reins a few more times, and finally got impatient, and a lightning passed.
"Help! Ma Zuzong, Ma Grandpa! Ma Dashen! Please stop......"
On the deserted mountain road, a horse spread its hooves and ran on the horse's life road, and from time to time there were collisions and terrible screams from the carriages behind.
Qin Mao grabbed the reins with a black face with the freshly baked bag on his head, hehe, didn't he already know that only he was the most trustworthy in this world, it was so sweet to hand over his life to his sworn brothers and sisters, even if he had to die on the same day, the same month and the same year, it was not romantic to die in a car accident.
Qin Mao's face darkened slightly, "Let's come with me, you can learn more." "Sure enough, I can't sleep lazy, how insecure my life is!
Qin Mao is worthy of being a person at the level of a male god, after groping for a while, the horse will be obedient and well-behaved, and the most important thing is: the speed is not slow at all!
The little fat man was jealous: "Ah Mao, do you obviously know how to drive horses?" Fang just said that he wouldn't. ”
Qin Mao said casually, "No, I just recalled the situation of driving horses under the martial arts, and then learned from your experience of failure, and found that it is quite simple to drive horses." ”
I hate geniuses! The little fat man bit his handkerchief and cried.
Xia Bilei also nodded in agreement, she also hated it!
