Chapter 131: The Horse Misses
Looking at Lao Li, who was silent in thought, the few people who were a little radical just now walked a few steps to Xin Kang and whispered, "Head, Lao Li won't be really angry, right?" ”
Xin Kang turned his head and glanced at it, and said helplessly: "I don't know if he is angry, but I found that he seems to be a little uncomfortable." Look at his face, why didn't he go far before he turned pale. ”
When several people were told by him, they all turned their heads, only to see that Lao Li's face was bloodless at this time, with beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead, and even his exhalation was like a bellows.
Everyone looked at each other, what was the matter with this Lao Li, why did he come out of the inn without a cup of tea, how could he be like this.
It stands to reason that it is basically normal for people like them to march forty or fifty miles a day, and although they are a little tired, they will not come to the point of detachment.
Xin Kangden felt that there was something strange about this, so he hurriedly waved his hand to stop everyone. Walked a few steps to Lao Li, stretched out his hand and patted Lao Li's shoulder, and said with concern: "Lao Li, what's wrong with you, your face is so ugly." ”
Lao Li raised his head blankly, staring at him blankly, as if he couldn't understand why Xin Kang asked such a question.
Xin Kang's brows furrowed, and he lifted the hand on his shoulder to see that it was sweaty. Busy exclaimed: "Come and help, Lao Li is a little wrong." ”
Everyone is a good brother who has been eating in the same pot for many years, and they don't take it to heart when they quarrel and abuse each other a few words on weekdays.
Now, when he heard Xin Kang say this, he immediately gathered around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"It was fine just now, what's wrong with this blink of an eye?"
An anxious guard was even the old Li who pushed it like a stake, and said: "What the hell are you talking about, what are you looking at me directly!" What's wrong with it? ”
Lao Li didn't answer him, still looking ahead with his mouth open and empty eyes, as if he hadn't heard everyone's shouts at all.
Everyone felt that this matter was indescribably weird, but they didn't know what to do, so they could only do it helplessly.
As the leader of the team, Xin Kang looked even more flustered at this time, only to see him stretch out his hand and pat Lao Li's cheek, and asked, "Lao Li Lao Li, can you hear what I said?" ”
Looking at Lao Li who was unresponsive, Xin Kang secretly took a breath of cold air and scolded: "Is this soul hooked?" It shouldn't be called up, give me the water bladder! ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand casually, and a guard answered by untying a water bladder from his waist and handing it to his hand.
The "bang" plug opened, Xin Kang picked up the water bladder and poured it, but the open boss's mouth couldn't be poured in, and how much poured flowed from the corner of his mouth.
When the guards saw this, their faces were as if they were dead. This person is obviously only out of breath but not in breath, and he is already dead. But if it's a dead person, how can he still walk in battle!
For dead people, they naturally have seen a lot, but it is indeed the first time they have seen such a strange one.
Xin Kang was even more confused, he didn't believe that there could be such a strange thing, so he reached out to the meridians behind his ears. It's extremely slight, but at least you can feel it.
With a relieved look, he took a long breath and said, "There is still a pulse!" ”
Hearing this, all the guards also looked a little softened, and hurriedly said: "Head, what is the situation, could it be said that Lao Li is pretending?" ”
"I know there," Xin Kang shook his head and thought for a while: "Otherwise, leave two people to help Lao Li return to Le'an Town to seek medical treatment, and the others will go with me to Zhujiazhuang to catch the thief." ”
All the guards nodded in agreement, although they were also worried about Lao Li's safety, but they were ordered to come out to arrest the thief, and now they know that if they refuse to go to the news, I am afraid that it will be difficult to go back.
Xin Kang casually pointed out the two of them and instructed: "Now you two, help him to hurry back to the town just now, I remember that there is a bone-setting medical hall diagonally opposite the inn, you two go and ask to see what the situation is." ”
I don't know if it's intentional or unintentional, but there is one person between the two who is the young guard who Lao Li stopped him just now and told him not to be impulsive. Perhaps out of gratitude, the young guard didn't say a word and hurried back with Lao Li on his shoulder, while the other assisted.
Watching the three of them leave, Xin Kang raised his eyebrows, and said aloud with a solemn expression: "We also have to hurry up, this time is not close, if something happens, it is still a question whether he can come back after dark." After saying that, he waved his hand and led a group of armor guards to the northwest.
In the inn, Wen Ziqi and the three of them sat around the table.
On the square table for four people is a plate of delicate small snacks, which looks like mung bean cake, but it is engraved with flowers, and the colors are bright and lifelike. Nangong Feifei didn't care about the image of her Oiran at all, and opened the bow left and right and stuffed it into her mouth one by one.
Qin Keqing, who was sitting opposite her, was just the opposite of her, only to see her frowning slightly, and let out a sigh from time to time.
"How?" Nangong Feifei's hands paused for a moment, and she asked, "Are you still thinking about Yang Hong?" After saying that, he didn't care about Wen Ziqi's eyes next to him, and stuffed half of the pastry in his hand into his mouth.
Qin Keqing nodded slowly, and said with a dry smile helplessly: "It's useless to think about this now, if we insert another bar in the golden armor as soon as the golden armor goes, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble, so let's eat something and return to the city." ”
After that, she picked up a piece of pastry behind her and took a bite, and after a little tasting, she saw her eyes shine and exclaimed: "The entrance is delicate and fragrant, and the quality is also excellent." To be able to make such a delicacy, this Cao Shi is not simple! ”
For women, knitting female celebrities are naturally indispensable, and if there is a good cooking skill, it will allow the matchmaker to break through the threshold.
And these two, although they are also daughters, they don't know anything about knitting, and they can't even think about cooking.
Nangong Feifei is okay, at least it is no problem to boil water and boil an egg. Qin Keqing is a little admirable, according to herself, she has not been in the kitchen once, I am afraid that it will be a little difficult to distinguish the salt and sugar if she does not taste it.
Now seeing that the Cao family has made so many tricks with ordinary mung bean cakes, admiration suddenly arises. even has the heart of apprenticeship.
Wen Ziqi, who was sitting on the side, saw that the two of them had eaten all the pastries, and licked his lips unsatisfied, and then said, "A plate of mung bean cake has completely captured the hearts of the two of you?" ”
Listening to these sour words, Nangong Feifei smiled and said, "Brother Wen, what you said is so light, as if you can do it." ”
Nangong Feifei originally said this casually, and she didn't take it to heart at all, but Wen Ziqi was not happy to sit there, not to mention seeing Qin Keqing's disdainful gaze on the side, she replied without thinking: "What's so difficult about this!" ”
"Ah," Nangong Feifei didn't seem to expect him to say this, so she smiled and said, "This little eye is starting to make trouble again, so what do you say about this thing?" ”
Being so provoked by Nangong Feifei, Wen Ziqi said without hesitation: "Hey, you really underestimate me, I ate a lot of this stuff when I was a child, how can I not know how to do it!" ”
"When you eat it as a child, you will make it? You're not bragging, are you? Nangong Feifei still stimulated him with relentless words.
Wen Ziqi didn't seem to realize that this Nangong Feifei was actually provoking him, so he smiled and said proudly: "Don't say it, I was a child..." ”
Although the sudden change in expression was only a short moment, he was still spotted by Qin Keqing, who had been staring at him with one hand on his cheek, but Qin Keqing did not interrupt, he still looked at him with a smile, and even said: "Remember to make a draft if you brag, otherwise it will be troublesome if the cowhide is blown up." ”
"Even you don't believe me?" It seems that Wen Ziqi was a little disappointed that Qin Keqing said this about him, and after a little adjustment, he spoke: "I'll say it first, you write it down, and wait for the Cao family to come over and ask if I did it right!" ”
Seeing that he seemed to be really serious, the two women were stunned, but now, if you don't let him finish this matter, it will make him feel as uncomfortable as a fish in his throat.
Thinking of this, he nodded his head and said, "You say, let's listen!" ”
Wen Ziqi didn't pay attention to the expressions of these two, but just coughed lightly, "After rinsing the mung bean water that has just been harvested, find a clay pot and soak it for more than six or seven hours, and it is best to soak it until the skin cracks." Speaking of this, I saw him sweeping the two of them as if showing off, and asked with a smile: "Do you know why the bubble is cracked?" ”
The two of them seemed to be quite disgusted by him for such a hanging, and they cut it lightly and said, "I don't know, why?" ”
It seemed that the two of them did not know, but he smiled and said mysteriously: "For the sake of good skinning!" ”
Maybe the two of them really didn't know why they had to soak until they cracked, and when they heard his explanation, they suddenly nodded and said, "It turned out to be for this, what about after peeling the skin?" ”
"After peeling the skin, you can put it in the pot and steam, of course, it is best to wash it again before putting it in the pot, put the washed beans in the plate, add a little water, and you can boil the fire and steam. And a little secret here is that you must pot it with cold water, and after the water boils, you can steam it for a stick of incense. ”
As if he really wanted to learn, Qin Keqing hurriedly stretched out his hand to interrupt him who was about to continue, and asked, "Why do you want to cook on cold water?" ”
As for why the cold water pot was cooked, Wen Ziqi didn't know, because he just remembered to do this, as for the reason, he didn't know, but now he was suddenly speechless when Qin Keqing asked like this, and the frustration of such a horse suddenly swept over, and his cheeks turned crimson in an instant.
was digging out the hollow thought why do you want to pot cold water, and there was a voice in my ears: "One is delicate, and the other is fragrant!" ”
