Volume 1 Above the Temple Chapter 44 Snow with Red Soup

The snow on the top of Wudang Mountain is flying, and the foot of Wudang Mountain is naturally white snow Kaikai, standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, it is naturally cloudy and misty like a fairyland, but if you look up from the foot of the mountain, it is a white and misty piece that you can't see really, and the only thing you can feel is the cold brought by the heavy snow...... This heavy snow enveloped the entire mountain forest with mountain fog, which really responded to the old saying that "the sky is like a dome covering the four fields".

Dozens of large black tents stationed at the foot of Wudang Mountain last night have also turned into white tents after a night of wind and snow, blending with the white vast mountains and forests.

At this time, the wind is getting stronger and the snow is getting thicker.

The hot breath that those black-armored soldiers spewed out from the nostrils of their mouths condensed into layers of frost flowers in an instant, frozen around the iron helmet, as if there was no room for two colors in the world in the white world, but although those armor soldiers were so cold that their faces were red, they still held their heads high and were as strong as iron.

This is not because they are unwilling to succumb to this white world, but because as soldiers of the Beiyu Army, they cannot afford to slack off in the slightest during their duty, not to mention that in addition to their general Ling Huji, there is also their young master Mu Qiuhuang in the tent today.

What is the best match for a snowy day? Then, if nothing else, it is naturally hot pot.

There is no problem in the world that cannot be solved by one hot pot, and if there is, then eat another hot pot...... This passage is very popular in the Beiyu army, especially in the snowy weather to eat hot pot, heavy snow with hot pot, just like a talented man with a beautiful woman.

……

At this time, in the tent in the middle, Mu Qiuhuang was eating hot pot with Ling Hujie around a big iron pot. Wuxin was not here because he was afraid of meat, so Mu Qiuhuang ordered someone to set up a clear pot for him in a tent elsewhere alone.

The heat in the iron pot rose out, exuding a rich smell of meat, which couldn't help but arouse Mu Qiuhuang's appetite.

Previously, "Wei" had sent a handwritten letter from Mu Qingen to Mu Qiuhuang, in which he said that he would let Goshawk Linghu accompany him to the imperial capital...... After learning the news that Ling Hu Ji came to Wudang Mountain to pick him up, Mu Qiuhuang asked Yu to bring a letter to Ling Hu Ji again, asking him to set up camp at the foot of Wudang Mountain and prepare a hot pot.

Mu Qiuhuang put all his attention on the iron pot at this time, and after the red oil rolled, he didn't have time to cook other ingredients, so he took out a piece of meat and bones from the bottom of the pot and began to gnaw on it...... Seeing Mu Qiuhuang behaving like this, Ling Hu Ji laughed and said, "I know that the young master loves to gnaw on this big bone, so I ordered someone to buy a lot of them in the market at the foot of the mountain yesterday...... It seems that I still make the fox know the young master's mind best. ”

Compared with the rest of Mu Qingen's righteous sons, Ling Hu Ji looks a little ugly, not to mention that he is compared with Tie Qiyun, Shen Tu, and Tan Bai Ming, even compared with the oldest Ouyang Dongqing and the average-looking Sanbao, he is also the ugliest one, Ling Hu Ji looks like a tiger's back, his skin is slightly dark, and what is even more excessive is that he does not have a single hair on his head, if it is just like this, it will be fine, but he has a beard again...... All in all, his face looks ugly with a bit of fierceness.

Ling Hu Ji pretended to be pleasing at this time, although the fierceness disappeared, but the ugliness still existed, to say something ugly, looking at his face was a little unappetizing.

But Mu Qiuhuang turned a blind eye to his face, smiled at him slightly, chewed the piece of meat in his mouth and said vaguely: "It's rare that Brother Linghu still remembers my preferences, but that's right, when I was in Brother Linghu's barracks, I drank and ate meat with Brother Linghu." ”

After listening to Mu Qiuhuang's slightly intimate words, Ling Hu Ji added a glass of wine to Mu Qiuhuang, and said excitedly: "What past events does the young master remember?" ”

Mu Qiuhuang swallowed the piece of meat in his mouth, picked up the wine glass and touched it with Ling Huji, and said with nostalgia: "Why don't you leave?" I still remember one time I went to the room in the middle of the night to steal food, and the next day you had to say that it was the cook who stole the bones and beat someone...... But you didn't eat less of the bones I stole at the time. ”

Ling Hu Ji took a drink from the wine glass and his swarthy face flushed a little, and smiled at Mu Qiuhuang: "You also know that my father-in-law is extremely strict in governing the army, and stealing food after dinner is a matter of military discipline, and I, as the commander-in-chief, can't know the law and break the law, so I have to wronged the cook...... But the cook was not wronged, after I beat him, I gave him ten taels of silver in private, and it was worth his beating, and he earned ten taels of silver for no reason. ”

Mu Qiuhuang laughed and said, "It's more than ten taels!" It should be twenty taels, I secretly gave him ten taels of silver before to let him resist this matter......"

Ling Hu Ji suddenly realized: "No wonder I remember that before I could speak, the cook knelt on the ground and confessed his guilt?" It turns out that he has long been bought by you...... But then again, did you have to ask me to eat the bones at the time, did you calculate that you were going to drag me into the water? ”

"That's natural, if you don't drag Brother Linghu into the water, in case you are selfless at that time and beat me up, who will I talk to." Mu Qiuhuang said seriously.

"Haha...... You, you! Ling Hu Ji stretched out his hand and pointed at Mu Qiuhuang, and the two laughed at the same time.

Mu Qiuhuang picked up a few pieces of hairy belly and scalded them in the tumbling iron pot a few times before sending them to his mouth, and said while eating: "I still use the big iron pot in this barracks to eat hot pot, although the red peat stove is elegant, but it lacks a little taste." ”

Linghu Ji also picked up a big bone from the pot, and replied while gnawing: "The young master speaks too much to my Linghu's appetite, I like this big iron pot stewed hot pot, next time I dare to say that I Linghu eats rudely, I will take the young master's words today to scold him, see if he dares to laugh at me Linghu ......"

Mu Qiuhuang naturally knew that what Ling Hu Ji was talking about was Harrier Eagle talking about Bai Ming, so he laughed and took over and said: "Brother Tan is more detail-oriented, so he is also very particular about eating, and he likes to chew and swallow slowly...... But in my opinion, the reason why Big Brother Tan said that you eat rudely is because you can't grab meat in a pot. ”

After listening to Mu Qiuhuang's words, Ling Hu also laughed.

……

After eating for a while, Mu Qiuhuang and Ling Huyu both put down their chopsticks, although the two put down the chopsticks, they did not mean to remove the pot, but added some white soup to the pot.

After Mu Qiuhuang picked up the flask and poured a glass of wine for the two, he asked, "By the way, why did my father let you accompany me to Kyoto this time?" ”

Ling Hujie scratched his head and said: "I don't know the specific situation, and you also know that my father-in-law's use of soldiers has always been unpredictable......"

When it came to Mu Qingen, the two of them were thoughtful, and they didn't speak for a long time.

In Mu Qingen's letter to Mu Qiuhuang, except for mentioning that Ling Hujie would go to Kyoto with him, he didn't explain anything else...... And the same is true of the order given to Ling Huji.

Seeing that Ling Hu Ji didn't know anything, Mu Qiuhuang asked casually: "By the way, in the past few months I have been on Wudang Mountain, have any major events happened?"

Although Mu Qiuhuang never cut off foreign contact when he was on the mountain, all the events that happened in the world were also secretly reported by Huang Ling...... However, although Mu Qiuhuang attaches great importance to Huang Ling, there will be mistakes in everything, for example, Huang Ling knows nothing about the intelligence of the Beiyu military.

The reason why this is the case, on the one hand, is because the military management is strict and difficult to penetrate, and on the other hand, because Mu Qiuhuang never allowed Huang Ling to get involved in the military from the beginning. Although Huang Ling is an intelligence organization exclusive to Mu Qiuhuang himself, Mu Qiuhuang's original purpose in creating them was only to obtain news from the rivers and lakes and listen to the movements of other princes, Mu Qiuhuang never thought of letting Huang Ling do anything wantonly in Beiyu.

Ling Hu Ji looked at Mu Qiuhuang in puzzlement, and after thinking about it carefully, he replied: "There is nothing major happening in the army, but I heard that after Shen Lao Er went deep into the grassland, he fought a tough battle with the Golden Horde, and as a result, the Golden Horde, who claimed to have 100,000 troops, was directly defeated by Shen Lao Er, and killed more than 60,000 people in the grassland in that battle, but I heard that the Golden Horde led people to run away, and now Shen Lao Er is leading people to continue to chase and kill......"

"Sixty thousand?" Mu Qiuhuang wondered.

"yes!"

A hint of jealousy appeared in Ling Huji's eyes, and he slowly took a sip of wine and said: "I didn't think how ruthless Shen Lao Er was before, but this time I finally saw it, this fucking one really lives up to the name of "crazy tiger", I heard that the order he gave after entering the grassland was to kill and eradicate the grass when he met someone......

"Kill people when they meet them, cut the grass and eradicate the roots?"

Mu Qiuhuang muttered to himself, picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine slowly, didn't speak for a long time, and said in his heart: "I don't know if the Golden Horde has no regrets about sending the Golden Cavalry to besiege him now?" It's just that those children are suffering......"

Seeing Mu Qiuhuang's appearance, Ling Hu Jian opened his mouth to persuade: "Young master, don't be unbearable, the grassland barbarians have always believed in the strong, only the harder they beat them, the more they will respect you...... As for those children, if they don't kill them cleanly, I am afraid that in a few years, they will pick up their scimitars and slaughter my Beiyu Sergeant again. ”

Mu Qiuhuang put down his wine glass and said, "Brother Linghu doesn't need to persuade me, I still understand the truth of not being in charge of the army......"

"Come, drink." Ling Hu Ji picked up the wine glass and poured a glass of wine for Mu Qiuhuang.

At this moment, the heavy curtain was swept up by a cyan figure, and the cold wind poured in with the broken snow, and the flames under the blowing pot swayed, and Mu Qiuhuang was also excited.

In the blink of an eye, the green shadow had already arrived behind Mu Qiuhuang, and Mu Qiuhuang had never seen the cyan figure, only because the cold wind was too strong.

But Ling Hu Ji had already discovered that when the curtain had just been lifted, Ling Hu Ji had already gotten up, and he had already arrived behind Mu Qiuhuang at this time.

Ling Hu Ji and Qingying made a move, Qingying was beaten out of the tent, and Ling Hu Ji was a sweet throat, and a mouthful of blood came up, so Ling Hu Ji didn't think much about it, and directly swallowed the blood in his mouth, and grabbed the Xuanhua axe beside him.

"There are assassins." Ling Hu Ji shouted, but he didn't come out of the account, but firmly guarded in front of Mu Qiuhuang.

Ling Hu Ji's eyes stared straight at the outside of the tent, and a trace of fierceness appeared, Mu Qiuhuang was abolished by the Sword Immortal in front of Qi Sanbao before, and the matter of abolishing the Qi Sea was still vivid, if he was injured in his hands again this time, he was afraid that the eagle dog would not be able to escape the blame...... You must know that the goshawk Linghu Ji, the harrier eagle talks about Bai Ming, and the vicious dog Qi Sanbao, these three people were orphans who depended on each other before they became Mu Qingen's righteous sons, so among Mu Qingen's six righteous sons, the three of them were also both prosperous and ashamed.

Hearing the sound of crackling fights outside, Mu Qiuhuang was also depressed, and said in his heart: "Is it really unfavorable for the passing years?" There are assassins again? ”

Without waiting for Mu Qiuhuang to think about it, he heard that he was unintentionally fighting outside, and then heard a donkey's bark...... After hearing these voices, a smile appeared on the corner of Mu Qiuhuang's lips, "Brother Linghu doesn't have to worry, the person who came is a Taoist from Wudang Mountain."

When Mu Qiuhuang walked out of the tent, he saw that the heavy snow was still falling, and the Beiyu sergeant had been knocked down more than a dozen people, and the Qingya Dao people were also surrounded by the rest of the sergeants.

Mu Qiuhuang said happily: "Donkey rider, why are you here?" ”

"Shizun asked me to go down the mountain, and it was the first time I went down the mountain, so I ......"

Seeing that Qingya Daoist wanted to speak and stopped, Mu Qiuhuang directly took over the words, "So you came to me?" ”

"Yes, I hope that His Royal Highness the Prince will fulfill his previous promise and eat and live ......" Qingya Daoren said embarrassedly, after all, when Mu Qiuhuang invited him to go down the mountain before, he refused, and I don't know if Mu Qiuhuang will admit it now?

"It's okay to eat and shelter, but before you do that, you have to apologize to my brothers, it's your fault that you hurt them for no reason?"

After Mu Qiuhuang finished speaking to Qingya Daoren, he turned his head to look at the sergeant who fell to the ground, and said embarrassedly: "This is my friend, it's all a misunderstanding......

Hearing that Mu Qiuhuang still admitted the account, the Qingya Daoist couldn't help but be quite grateful to him, and apologized to the sergeant on the ground without the slightest hesitation, but fortunately, there was also a spare hand before the Qingya Daoist, so these sergeants were not hurt......

After seeing that everything was explained clearly, Mu Qiuhuang didn't say anything more, and Qingya Daoist said embarrassedly: "His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has something to eat?" The trail has been chasing you all the way, and you haven't eaten yet......"

Mu Qiuhuang laughed with a smile on his face when he heard this: "This is easy to do, donkey raiser, do you eat hot pot?" ”
