Chapter 7 Wild Game Barbecue
Smoothly entered the so-called wild land.
Although it is a desolate town, it has a certain administrative department.
And she is now going to the yamen set up by the imperial court here, and ask them to take her to the place where she is going to live temporarily.
After asking a few people, I finally arrived at the Yamen.
Looking at the dilapidated house and the plaque with peeling paint, Gu Honglian was a little skeptical that he had made the right decision to come here.
"Who are you looking for?"
An old man came out of it.
Gu Hong Lian dismounted, stepped forward, and took the official document from his arms.
"Oh, you're the new one here."
The old man understood the situation after reading the official document, and then raised his eyes to look at Gu Honglian, "Why did you come alone?" ”
"There was an accident on the road, and the officers who escorted me died."
Her answer made the old man even more strange, "Then why did you come here by yourself?" ”
He was very surprised when he heard this tone.
Since the officials are all dead, shouldn't she run away quickly? She was banished here, and there was no one to escort her, so why did she come back.
Gu Honglian knew a little bit about the situation here on the way.
A hundred years ago, it was still densely populated, with abundant water sources and fertile land, and production and brokerage were very prosperous in ancient times.
However, soon after the founding of the Qirao Continent, there was a gold rush here, and a large number of people/streams poured in.
And the government wanted to take all this gold for themselves, so it provoked a lot of disputes, let the people here kill each other, and made this place a desolate place with weeds and thorns, sparse people, and wild beasts.
It also divides this place into people from other kingdoms.
Although there is still the rule of the Qirao Continent for the time being, it is also coveted by other states, just like the Night Death Country.
As time went by, it became more and more turbulent and desolate.
This has become the case, but the government has made the situation even worse, sending a group of people to work here, destroying the already fragile ecology, just to dig more gold mines for them.
There are also those who have committed crimes here to fend for themselves.
Like her.
And what the king of stability.
King Anding belongs to the supreme ruler here, of course, no matter how high he is, he is also demoted here by the emperor.
She knew this, but after arriving here, she knew that King Anding was dead, and there was no one who knew about the specific situation, anyway, only the son of King Anding was left, and he inherited the title, which can be regarded as a king.
"This is where you live."
The old man turned out to be the official of this place.
There is not even a decent officer and soldier.
"Yes, yes, but they all went to guard the border in case the barbarians attacked them."
The old man himself brought her to arrange a place for her to live.
Open the door and hand over the official documents and keys to Gu Honglian.
"Well, it's all for you. The people who were sent here all have to do things, the men dig for gold, the women do alchemy, except for the King of Anding and their family, there is you, but you are just such a girl, I don't know how you are going to live, if there is really no way, come to the old yamen, and there are some salted fish and vegetables. ”
"Thank you, sir, I'll take care of it myself."
"Okay, then I'll go first."
When the old man was gone, she walked into the courtyard.
The place is quite large, but relatively modern, and the ancient land is vast and there are few people, so the pattern of such a room and a courtyard is very shabby.
Walking into the house, it was even more so, so dilapidated that she couldn't imagine how to live.
She is not a noble person, and she has encountered even worse environments when she was doing tasks in the past.
But at least, she is not short of money, and after the mission is completed, she can return to her residence and have a good rest.
But now?
She had just looked at the street where there were a few shops selling them that were lifeless.
According to her, this wild land, since it was a fertile land before, should be very suitable for farming, fishing, and other construction.
Forget it, she can't control these now.
Her first purpose was to find out where the gold mine was, and then get out of here, she didn't want to live here!
"Do you want to go to this king's mansion?"
The sudden sound came from the roof.
Gu Honglian looked sideways, and saw that the ghost-faced king didn't know when he appeared there, sitting on the roof and looking at her.
He came with her?
"Do you have anything to eat? Is there meat to eat? She asked.
It's not that she can't pretend to be stupid, and those who know the times are Junjie, since he is the head of this wild place, even if he is a puppet, it is better than her living alone.
"Meat is precious here, you extravagant woman." The words were like a lesson, but he said very calmly, "However, if you want to eat, it's not impossible." ”
Gu Honglian looked at him silently.
He wants to "domesticate" her, that's for sure, but the method he uses is quite unique.
"Really? So, I'll go with you. Gu Honglian spoke without hesitation.
The Ghost Face King was very happy, "Do you know martial arts?" ”
She shook her head.
"Trouble!" The Ghost-Faced King muttered, "In this way, your value is lower than that of Yutian." ”
Gu Hong practiced Mo and compared her to a leopard!
She endures!
As he spoke, the Ghostface King had teleported in front of her, and then grabbed her waist, "Let's go, hold me." ”
There is free labor, why don't she use it, so she is not embarrassed, just let him hold her.
After a while, she knew what the so-called "meat to eat" meant!
How could she have forgotten that the Wild Land is a place where wild beasts are frequent!
In other words, other meats, such as duck and chicken, are not available due to local restrictions, but beast meat, as long as you are strong enough, you can eat it.
And this Ghost Face King is obviously one of the toughest ones.
Gu Honglian hadn't touched meat for a long time, and this kind of animal similar to a wild boar was also food in itself, so she wasn't afraid of getting sick.
"Well, how do you eat it?" The Ghost-faced King stood in front of the pile of beasts that he had killed with one palm, "worried".
If it weren't for the fact that he was still wearing a mask, and the visual effects of the mask were terrifying, she would have thought that he was just a cute person!
How could he not have thought about what to do before killing the beast?
"Why don't you pick one you like, bring it back to my house, and let the kitchen people get it." He finally relented and advised her.
Gu Honglian shook his head, he was really helpless to him.
She looked at the natural stream around her, and then said with a smile on her face: "Today, for the sake of you giving me so much game, you are blessed!" Let you try it out. Let's have a barbecue! ”
The Ghostface King didn't understand and stood there.
"Come on, hit the handle first, take out the internal organs of these things, and peel off the fur......"
She commanded with a glance, and it seemed that she didn't regard this Ghost-faced King as a terrifying person at all.
The two people who didn't know each other's names just stared at the food in front of them!
