The carriage was rolling and the horses' hooves were rattling, and the three of them chatted as they walked, and returned to the Qinghe Marquis Mansion under the escort of a group of guards.

After getting off the car at the door, Chen Xu looked at the lonely gate in front of his house, remembered the two huge stone pillars carved with reckless beasts in front of the courtyard of Fang Cai's concubine, and suddenly felt that his prime minister's mansion was a little childish, pinched his chin and pondered for a moment, and asked the guards guarding the door to find the housekeeper.

"Master Hou, what do you command?" This housekeeper is nearly fifty years old, named Zhao Lun, he was there from the beginning, Chen Xu was going to replace it for his own safety, but Zhao Qing said that this housekeeper of the Hou Mansion was an old and serious internal official arranged by the emperor himself, so Chen Xu did not plan to move, it is estimated that it is the emperor's eyeliner or something, or maybe not, just to let Chen Xu worry less, so Chen Xu has always let him be the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, and Zhao Lun also manages the Hou Mansion in an orderly manner, which does make Chen Xu less troublesome.

"Find two skilled stonemasons and help me build two one-foot tall giant panda statues at the door to act as the sacred beasts of the town!" Chen Xu pointed to the bare emptiness on both sides of the gate and said.

"Master Hou, what is the Divine Beast of the Town House?" A group of people looked at Chen Xu in confusion, and the housekeeper asked everyone's questions.

"Town house beasts, as the name suggests, is used to guard the house of fierce beasts, the ancient wilderness period, there are fierce beasts, evil beasts, beasts, demon beasts, spirit beasts, fairy beasts, rui beasts, divine beasts, and holy beasts, nine beasts follow the gods and demons to fight in all directions, Kyushu is chaotic, gods and demons in the war of gods and demons and these beasts who follow the conquest are all killed and injured, or die or extinguish or disappear, but although these beasts are dead, but they leave a thin bloodline in the world, and then the bloodline is becoming thinner and thinner after thousands of years, Slowly transformed into the beasts and birds we see today, although there is no ancestral beast to destroy the world, but it is also fierce and abnormal, this giant panda is also called the iron-eating beast, the legend is the mount of the ancient demon Chi You, over the mountains and mountains such as walking on the ground, and docile and tame, is the best beast of the town house today, to create two statues to stand at the door of the Hou Mansion, there is the effect of tending to good fortune and avoiding evil, and there is also a decorative effect, we don't think that the space at the door of the Hou Mansion is a little empty? ”

Chen Xu was full of nonsense, and he used a lot of various terms that later generations looked at the fantasy, and only stunned a group of people, especially Yu Wuya, the iron sword in his arms fell and almost smashed his foot.

"Engong, these ...... Where did you hear this, could it be that the three volumes of ......" Yu Wuya bent down to pick up the iron sword that he never left every day, and suddenly woke up in the middle of speaking, and quickly stopped.

"This matter is recorded in some ancient books, the four holy beasts Qinglong, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, Xuanwu guard the four heavenly realms, and the rest of the strange beasts are also mentioned in Erya and the Book of Mountains and Seas, and now the surviving ancient beasts are not only giant pandas, but there are many, but the divinity has retreated into fierce beasts, such as this giant panda, and rhinoceros elephants, there are lions and beasts in the west, and there are snow in the north.

Chen Xu knew that if he continued to talk about this topic, he probably wouldn't have to eat or sleep today, so he walked to the courtyard with a wave of his hand, leaving only a group of people standing at the door in a daze.

"Engong Engong!" Yu Wuya followed in a few steps, with a curious look on his face, "I have already heard of the four holy beasts of the Green Dragon and White Tiger Vermilion Bird Xuanwu, and what are the other fierce beasts, evil beasts, divine beasts, and demon beasts, and what are their names?" ”

"It's a long story, you have been out for nearly twenty days, hurry up and wash and change clothes, I'll go see the giant pandas first, and then talk about it slowly when you eat!"

These holy beasts and demon beasts were all made out by Chen Xu just now, although later generations have relatively clear annotations on these so-called ancient beasts, but he will definitely not be able to say it in one breath now, so he can only take Yu Wuya away first.

"Engong Mo wants to take the opportunity to run away, it just so happens that I haven't seen a giant panda either......" Yu Wuya didn't have much interest in washing his face and brushing his teeth at all, he followed up in a few steps, muttering in his mouth until he reached the panda park, and then watched the two heads rolling and crawling in front of Chen Xu to roll and sell cute to eat bamboo, Yu Wuya's eyes bulged out and almost fell to the ground.

"Engong, this ...... That's what you say...... Said the iron-eating beast, the mount of the Great Demon of Chiyou? Yu Wuya stammered and asked, pointing to the two ends.

"Yes!" Chen Xu nodded with satisfaction, picked up a verdant bamboo and put it in, and the two giant pandas stood up and grabbed the bamboo and ate it.

"It's still ...... Why do you eat bamboo? The expression on Yu Wuya's face was even more exciting.

"What's wrong with eating bamboo, this shows that it has great strength and good teeth, even if it encounters a wild wolf in the mountains, it is not weak at all, and it is so docile, where can I find such a good pet in the world......" Chen Xu said contentedly with the two giant pandas with bamboo.

"The beast that eats bamboo...... I'm kind of convinced! Yu Wuya stayed for a long time before he came back to his senses, and a pair of eyes roamed over the two giant pandas for a long time and said: "Engong, this giant panda looks extremely fat, if it is used for barbecue, it must have plenty of oil and water, and it is extremely delicious......"

"You think too much, the giant panda is a Shirui beast, I am going to play Your Majesty in a few days, and this beast will be listed as a national beast, and the people are not allowed to hunt it from now on!" Chen Xu threw a few bamboos into the panda garden, then clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Brother Wuya, go wash and change clothes, I recently made a delicious dish, especially delicious......"

"Really?" Yu Wuya was overjoyed, and immediately threw the idea of roasting the giant panda out of the clouds, and ran to the place where he lived while carrying the iron sword and said, "Engong, I'm going to wash and change clothes, you hurry up and prepare delicious food!" ”

In less than twenty minutes, when Yu Wuya finished washing, changed into neat and clean clothes, and ran into the living room, Chen Xu was already sitting by the fire and chattering with Chen Ping on a large plate of braised chicken feet and duck feet.

"Engong, this is chicken feet and duck feet, you ...... How can you eat such a vulgar thing, without even a bit of meat......" Yu Wuya had all kinds of expectations, but when he saw a large plate of claws, he was suddenly full of joy like pouring a basin of cold water on his head, and a wave of enthusiasm was cold from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.

"Brother Yu, don't talk too much, hurry up and eat, that's all for the kitchen, wait for Sun Shujiong, Huangfu Que and Hu Kuan to come back later, you won't be able to gnaw on the chicken bones!" Although Chen Ping is a well-mannered scribe, he is relatively tall, and he looks like a relatively burly strong man, but at the moment, he is holding a duck's paw with both hands, and his mouth is greasy everywhere, and he can't see the demeanor of a scribe at all.

"That's right, hurry up, that's all!" Chen Xu also nodded while eating.

Although he is the Hou Ye, but he is unwilling to compete with the people in the house, there is a quota every day, so his share of the food is gone, although he has more, but how can one or twenty soles of his feet be able to hold up such boring years, no TV, no games, no Internet, in addition to the work that needs to be done urgently, you can be idle all day long, and then read a book and eat one, walk and eat one, bored to eat one, fun to eat one, sometimes see a few personal maids looking at drooling, and reward a few, Therefore, it is not enough to eat at all, but the imperial chef and helpers in the kitchen sometimes secretly save a few preparations for Chen Xu to have supper, but there are not many, just such a plate.

Seeing Chen Xu and Chen Ping looking focused on the chicken paws and duck feet in their hands as if worshipping their ancestors, one chicken paw was gnawed cleanly, and the small bones were neatly piled on the table, Yu Wuya hesitated for a long time and was about to reach out to take one and taste it, when suddenly the door was pushed open with a bang, and I saw Huang Fuque running in from the outside wrapped in a cold wind.

"Haha, it's just the right time!" After Huang Fu turned around and closed the door, he rushed to the edge of the table in a few steps, reached out and picked up two chicken feet and sat down next to them to nibble.

"Haha, Master Hou is stealing food again, and he is here!" A long laugh sounded outside the door, the door was pushed open again with a clang, and Sun Shujiong also strode in, rushed straight to the table, stretched out his hand, grabbed two duck paws, and stood by the stove to nibble.

There were only three or five left on the plate in an instant.

Yu Wuya didn't hesitate any longer, and reached out to grab the last few chicken paws on the plate in his hand.

Chen Xu was almost finished gnawing the chicken paws in his hand at this time, and stretched out his hand and said, "One with me!" ”

"Brother Yu, don't be gluttonous, and be with me!" Chen Pinghe stretched out his hand.

Yu Wuya didn't think much about it, he divided one by one, and then put a duck paw in his mouth and took a bite, and then his whole body was slammed, his eyes were wide open, and his face showed disbelief, and after a while, he quickly buried his head and gnawed it.

This is a cooled braised dish, the smell is not strong, but the taste is all converged, so the moment of the entrance, as a senior foodie, Yu Wuya immediately felt the difference, the taste is slightly strong, although there is only a little extremely rare tendon, but the bite is salty and spicy, as if all the tastes in the world are wrapped in it, every bite is a delicacy that has never been tasted, especially the tiny toe tips, chewing carefully in the mouth, the beautiful taste is simply indescribable, Full of refreshing soul enjoyment.

"Well, it's delicious, it's the best in the world!" Yu Wuya hummed in admiration while gnawing back.

Soon Yu Wuya finished gnawing on the two chicken paws in his hand, and then looked at the empty plate, feeling that he couldn't get out of this delicious food that he had never eaten before, and shouted with regret on his face, "Engong, how are these delicious foods made, are there any more in the house, hurry up and have another hundred and eighty ......"

"Hey, there are still one hundred and eighty, you can't find the whole Xianyang!" Huangfu slowly and carefully gnawed the half of the chicken feet in his hand, and each bone knot was gnawed white and clean, leaving no excess substance.

"It's just chicken paws and duck paws, the poor don't eat it, Xianyang is so big, there are no one hundred and eighty, I don't believe it!" Yu Wuya jumped up and said.

"Brother Yu, don't say it's one hundred and eighty, you go to the butcher in the market to have a look, now the people who are waiting to buy chicken feet and duck feet every day are squatting there all day long, and you can't buy seven or eight!" Sun Shujiong explained with a smile.

"Why?" Yu Wuya was a little confused.

"Because the emperor also said it was delicious!" Chen Xu finished gnawing one of the paws in his hand and stood up to wash his hands.

Yu Wuya instantly understood, when the emperor said that it was delicious, naturally the people in the palace would go to find it, although there were a lot of chickens and ducks slaughtered every day in the huge Xianyang, but the palace was so big, there were so many concubines, and there were so many princes and princesses, all of whom wanted to gnaw on this delicious claw, so naturally it was not enough to eat.
