Chapter 389: Ominous Feelings

"Forget it, don't think about it, I'm finally back, and I'll tell me what happened on the road later! Tomorrow morning, the servants of the house will naturally go to a few markets to buy, and when the time comes, I will have a good meal with you! Chen Xu comforted Yu Wuya.

Yu Wuya had no choice but to wash his hands and rinse his mouth, and after Huang Fuque, Sun Shujiong and others left, he carefully talked about what happened on the way to Shu County with Shang Tu this time.

"You said another guy ran away?" Chen Xu was surprised.

"I blamed me for being too careless in this matter, the sky was very dark at that time, and there were many people on the other side and crossbows, and the scene was chaotic, so when I was about to chase and kill after I rescued Shang Tu, it was basically out of sight after dark, so I had to give up!" Yu Wuya said with some frustration.

"I'm too careless about this matter, although Shang Tu's life is not in danger at the moment, but getting his confession is not in vain, but now Zhao Gao must have known that his assassination of Shang Tu has been exposed, and it is estimated that he will do something more impulsive because of panic recently, maybe it will be bad for me!" Chen Xu pinched his chin and thought for a while.

"He dares, don't worry, I will always guard Engong's side recently, and I will never give Zhao Gao a chance!" Yu Wuya's face instantly turned extremely cold.

"Don't be excited, I say this because Zhao Gao may have noticed your identity from the mouth of the fleeing assassin, according to Shang Tu, Zhao Gao has already guessed that it was you who assassinated him on the street, so he will guess that I am secretly saving Shang Tu to sabotage his plan, he does not dare to blatantly disadvantage me now, but as the saying goes, guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to prevent, this is not a long-term solution, be careful recently, unfortunately, Shang Tu's family is almost dead!" Chen Xu sighed and said.

"Engong, you are too merciful, there is no pity for people like Shang Tu, if they die, they will die, why be merciful!" Yu Wuya was very puzzled by Chen Xu's approach.

"Shang Tu and Ao Ping were only bewitched by Zhao Gao to cause the destruction of the three clans, and there are unjust debtors and owners, forget it, don't talk about this!" Chen Xu shook his head.

Half an hour later, Yu Wuya came out of the living room and ran to the kitchen to sneak around, carefully inquired about the practice of braised chicken feet and duck feet, and then called a few guards over to give them a careful advice, and then went out wearing a hat and carrying an iron sword.

It was getting dark, and soon the curfew began, and there were few pedestrians on the streets, except for some carriages and horses from the princes' mansions and the patrolling lieutenants' palaces, there were hardly any idlers on the streets.

In the restaurant, the hot pot is steaming and tumbling, the soup made of the fragrant bone broth exudes a strong fragrance, and all kinds of hot pot dishes are also served on the table, Chen Xu, Chen Ping, Hu Kuan, Sun Shujiong, and Huangfu are all sitting around the hot pot, and there are kitchen workers and seven or eight little maids serving next to them, and there are bowls and chopsticks and porcelain cups in front of everyone, and Qinghe wine has also opened several bottles, but everyone has not moved the chopsticks to eat.

"Brother Yu has been out quietly for so long and hasn't come back, is it because he went to visit the garden?" Huangfu said with drooling staring at the boiling soup in the hot pot.

"No, there are so many little ladies in the house, why bother to go far!" Hu Kuan shook his head.

"It seems that Brother Yu can't eat this feast, and if he cooks it again, this pot of soup will be boiled dry!" Chen Ping was also quite regretful, and reached out to pick up the chopsticks and stirred them in the soup pot a few times, so as not to boil the bottom of the pot.

Chen Xu was also very depressed, and originally arranged for the kitchen to prepare sumptuous dishes for Yu Wuya to wash the dust, but he didn't expect this second goods to run away without a shadow, and he didn't say when he would come back, and a room full of people could only wait.

Could it be that this thing is going to kill Zhao Gao again!

Chen Xu remembered what the two had said in the living room, and couldn't help but be secretly anxious.

With Yu Wuya's skills, it is difficult to kill Zhao Gao, especially now that Zhao Gao should be in his own mansion, there are hundreds of servants and guards alone, and it is extremely difficult to sneak in, let alone assassinate, ten thousand steps forward, even if he kills Zhao Gao, it is almost impossible to retreat with his whole body, Yu Wuya is a martial arts master who has obtained the authentic Taoist heart, but he is far from reaching the ability of Yi Shengjia and Huang Shigong to transcend ordinary masters, at best, he is an ordinary master who is ten with one as ten, And among the guards on Zhao Gao's mansion, there must also be masters with similar abilities to him, otherwise when he was assassinated in Xianyang, Yu Wuya would not have been seriously injured and almost cut into meat sauce on the street, and the first emperor was around, there must be many martial arts masters like him, at the beginning in Wancheng, Shui gently chased and killed Xuanwuwei, although he poked the opponent six times, but let the opponent escape, and she was also injured, which shows that the gap between the two sides is not too big.

This is a completely different era from later generations, whether it is the court or the folk mountains, there are all kinds of self-cultivation and physical training masters, the so-called martial arts and national arts in later generations, are inherited from this era, and thousands of years of war, resulting in the loss of inheritance, plus the material is becoming more and more abundant, more and more tools can be used, the population is more and more, the society is more and more stable, the threat and danger of beasts are less and less, so there are fewer and fewer people who concentrate on practicing martial arts, In the end, many inheritances were gradually submerged in the long river of history, and they could no longer be found.

It's good to be a martial arts master, but the difficulties can also be imagined, Yu Wuya has been practicing with Chi Songzi on Lu Mountain for more than ten years, so he has the ability to do now, and the water has been cultivating softly for only seven or eight years, and there is still a big gap between martial arts and Yu Wuya, and it is impossible for Chen Xu to use his limited life to continue boring cultivation and advancement, life is only a few decades, eating, drinking, meditating, sleeping and cultivating, he is destined to be alone, which is why those who cultivate immortals want to hide in the deep mountains and old forests for the lonely death, There are too many temptations in the mundane, just eating and drinking is enough to make Yu Wuya give up the pursuit of immortal Dao and become a big foodie, not to mention other temptations.

Although he was worried that Yu Wuya, the second goods, couldn't help but assassinate Zhao Gao, he didn't hear any movement on the street at the moment, so Chen Xu could only secretly pray that this goods were just coming back from a trip, and he couldn't help but go to the garden to find a woman to be happy.

"You guys go to the door again to see if Wuya has come back!" Chen Xu commanded, and the two little maids hurried out.

After waiting anxiously for seven or eight minutes, the two little maids who went to visit the door ran back with excited faces, "Master Hou, Master Yu is back!" ”

Chen Xu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What about people? Hurry up and let him come over to eat hot pot, he is almost hungry! ”

"Master Yu went to the kitchen with a big bag of things!" A little maid covered her mouth and sneered.

"What are you laughing at? What is he doing in the kitchen? Chen Xu was inexplicable.

"Master Hou forgives the sin, the slave can't help it, Master Yu is covered with chicken feathers, as if he crawled out of the chicken pen!" The little maid's cheeks flushed with explanation.

Uh, what's going on?

Chen Xu stood up and walked out the door, preparing to go to the kitchen to see what Yu Wuya was doing with the chicken.

"Let's go, let's go, let's see what Brother Yu is doing?" Hu Kuan and Chen Ping also stood up and followed Chen Xu to the kitchen.

By this time it was completely dark, the weather was cold, the cold wind was howling, and the lanterns hanging in the corridors and courtyards were constantly swaying in the wind.

A few people came to the kitchen with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and saw that Yu Wuya was really as the two little maids said, covered with colorful chicken feathers, and there was a strong smell of on his body, and there was a big bag on the ground, and several cooks were taking chicken legs of various colors from the pocket.

Seeing Chen Xu come in, Yu Wuya said with a smile on his face: "Engong has not seen it, there are more than 100 chicken feet in this big pocket, and you will definitely be able to eat it when it is marinated." ”

"Where did it come from?" When Chen Xu asked, he squatted down and picked up a chicken leg, and found that it was still hot, not only with chicken feathers, but also dripping blood.

"Hey, hey!" Yu Wuya hugged the iron sword and laughed dryly, "I asked that there was a poultry trading shop near the Chengnan Market, so I took advantage of the night to take a turn, and found that there were not many chickens and ducks in it, only more than a dozen, so I forced the owner to sell me chicken feet and duck paws in advance!" ”

Chen Xu: ......

"But the number is wrong, didn't you say that there will be more than ten chickens and ducks in the future, and there are at least hundreds of chicken and duck legs here!" Chen Xu said with a dark face.

"Hehe, I'm not done yet!" Yu Wuya's face showed a smug color, "More than ten chicken feet and duck paws are naturally not enough to eat, I passed by the door of a large household on the way back, and heard two housekeepers who said that there were dozens of chickens and ducks in the house, and said that they were going to steal one out and burn it to eat, so I found a hidden place to jump in, found the chicken pen, and cut off the soles of my feet after twisting all the chicken necks, because I was in a hurry, and I brought some thighs by the way, and when I was marinated for a while, the leg meat was not ......."

Chen Xu: ......

"Hahahaha, Brother Yu only knows one thing but doesn't know the other, chicken wings are more delicious than chicken feet and duck paws!" Chen Ping, who followed, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Haha, not bad, not bad, Brother Yu, this is the end of the house, the chicken feet are marinated, of course, it is delicious, but it is still not as delicious as the wings, but it's a pity!" Huang Fuque and Sun Shujiong also laughed.

"Really?" Yu Wuya asked blankly.

"I don't dare to deceive Brother Yu, I don't believe you ask them!" Chen Ping smiled breathlessly and pointed to a few kitchen workers.

"Master Yu, the chicken wings are indeed better than the chicken feet when marinated, not only the taste, but also the meat, full ......of chewiness," several kitchen workers hurriedly said.

"Hehe, hurry up and help me marinate these chicken feet and duck paws first, and come when I go!" Yu Wuya's face suddenly showed joy, put on his hat and iron sword, turned around and walked out of the kitchen, and then took a few steps out, only to hear the sound of a gust of wind in the dark, and a few pieces of chicken feathers fell and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Chen Xu raised his eyes and forgot about the dark night sky, and there was an ominous feeling in his heart.
