When he returned to his room, he saw a table of delicious wine and food prepared by Dai Ji, with vegetables and meat, as well as a pot of thick soup with an attractive fragrance, which made Lu Yu, who had not had a mouthful of water in his stomach for more than ten hours, move his index finger, and suddenly forgot about everything, and couldn't help but want to try her cooking skills.

Dai Ji smiled sweetly: "Brother Lu has returned triumphantly, and he must not have eaten anything yet, Dai Ji is clumsy, and he made something barely edible for Lu Ye." ”

Lu Yu made an impatient expression and took a deep breath of the aroma of the delicacies: "Even it smells so good, it must be very delicious." ”

Dai Ji served him a bowl of soup and said, "Lu Ye will drink some soup first, and then eat meat." ”

Lu Yu sat down and saw that the soup was as white as milk, it tasted fat but not greasy, very sweet, a little like fish soup, so he asked, "Is this fish soup?" ”

The corners of Dai Ji's lips raised slightly, and she said coquettishly: "Can Lu Ye guess what kind of fish soup it is and what ingredients are used?" ”

Lu Yu smiled bitterly: "I have never refused food since I was a child, but I don't know how to cook, if I want to guess the ingredients in this soup, this is really stumped by you." ”

Dai Ji pursed her lips and said: "Okay, this is the black carp offering turtle, boil the turtle until the outer layer is wrinkled, take it out, remove the old skin, claw tips and internal organs, chop the pieces and cook for another hour; At the same time, the black carp goes to the gills and belly, with ginger and green onions and rice wine, boiled until the meat is rotten, at this time only take its soup, mix it into the turtle soup, add soybeans and cook for half an hour. ”

Lu Yu only felt that the sweetness of this soup was definitely something that a five-star hotel could not do, so he tried a bite of turtle meat, and sure enough, it melted in his mouth, and his mouth was full of gelatin, and he couldn't help but put another bowl of it in himself, and it was instantly included in the Five Organs Temple.

Dai Ji smiled, saw him eating and gobbling up, and hurriedly said to him: "Master Lu, don't just drink soup, wait for anything else to be full." ”

Lu Yu laughed, pointed to a plate of delicacies like braised pork and asked, "What is this?" ”

Dai Ji's eyes widened and she was surprised: "Hasn't Lu Ye even eaten a bear's paw?" ”

Lu Yu was embarrassed, he really hadn't eaten bear paws.

Daihime helped him fill some sashimi and said, "Try this carp first, and then try the orchid bear's paw." ”

It turned out that this carp was raw carp slices, and Lu Yu had eaten a lot of sashimi, but he didn't expect it to be available in the Warring States Period. Without frying, the freshness and sweetness of the fish have not been lost at all, and with green onion mustard, it is indeed another Lu Yu's favorite dish.

Knowing that he really didn't know anything about cooking, and which kind of Lu Yu ate, Dai Ji patiently told him how to cook that kind of dish. The method of orchid bear's paw is more complicated, it needs to be stewed for half a day, and there are so many ingredients and methods that Lu Yu can't remember, it is the longest dish on the whole table.

After a full meal, he patted his stomach and went to see Duan Ganchong.

Duan Ganchong was also amazed, saying that since the birth of his mother's womb, he had never seen such a huge monster with no wings and white hair. Listening to Lu Yu talk about the suspicious grave again, he gasped even more.

Lu Yu saw that his brows were tightly knit for a moment, and then he suddenly got up and said, "If the old man is not mistaken, the seven empty coffins are actually an ancient formation. ”

It turned out that when he was young, he had heard a legend that in the Shang Dynasty, there was a minister who admonished the king with death, and was executed by the king of Zhou, and then his body was thrown out of the wilderness for wolves to eat.

When a person's body is destroyed after death, his three souls and seven spirits will be incomplete and he will not be able to reincarnate as a human being, and this minister was so loved by the people at that time that he could not bear to let his bones be gone. The ancients paid attention to entering the earth for peace, and a strong man stepped forward and risked his death to pick up his remains, wanting to bury the minister, but he never got his body ready.

At this time, a sorcerer told him that there is a kind of witchcraft, that is, the remains of the dead person or the clothes before his death are buried in the ground, and one soul can be summoned, and then the other two souls can be summoned with divine objects, and finally seven empty coffins can be placed on it, and the seven spirits can be summoned by casting spells, and finally as long as the tomb is sealed, if no one destroys it within ten years, the deceased can rest in peace and be reincarnated as a human.

The strong man didn't know what the artifact was, so he consulted the wizard. The wizard pointed out to him that there were two big snakes that had cultivated into demons in Buzhou Mountain, and there were pills in their bodies, which were divine objects.

Later, the strong man really lived up to expectations and directly caught the two big snakes back.

So the sorcerer arranged a formation for the Shang minister, and summoned his soul so that he could be reincarnated as a human.

After Lu Yu heard him tell this story, he couldn't help but secretly admire Zhang Wu in his heart, because on the way back, Zhang Wu had already told Lu Yu about his conjecture, which was basically the same as the soul conjuring technique that Duan Ganchong said.

It's just that Duan Ganchong is talking about the story of the Shang Dynasty, in which the gods use two demon snakes, and the most he has encountered is a hundred years ago, of course, it is obvious that the replacement of the gods must be strange birds.

Duan Ganchong said again: "The old man just heard a myth, but he didn't expect that there was something outside Yecheng. ”

Lu Yu said with a smile: "Anyway, although there is a food supply in the tomb, it is not surprising that that strange bird has been able to live until now, and it is not surprising that it is a divine creature." ”

Duan Ganchong said: "But I don't know who is buried in that tomb, and who would use such ancient witchcraft. ”

Lu Yu shook his head: "The villain doesn't know. But I decided to take a break and figure it out during the day. ”

Duan Ganchong nodded and praised: "General Lu is really very human, just a few nights to find out the strange things in Yecheng for more than half a month, if it weren't for the heavy responsibility, the old man really wanted to keep you for a few more days." ”

Lu Yu hurriedly said modestly: "The general is polite, the villain just picked up a ready-made one." ”

Duan Ganchong was stunned for a while, and it took a while to understand the meaning of Lu Yu's words, and he couldn't help laughing: "General Lu is a strange person, and he is not greedy for merit, what a ready-made, haha!" ”

At this time, only Wei Mingji's voice was heard outside the hall: "What funny things are the two of you talking about, and Princess Ben also wants to participate." ”

Lu Yu and Duan Ganchong got up at the same time and saluted Wei Mingji, who walked in.

Wei Mingji called off the two maidservants, sat down, motioned for the two to sit down, and said, "I heard that General Lu has captured the beast, which is really gratifying. ”

Lu Yu showed his white teeth and said with a smile: "Actually, it's because of the strength of the people, and it's not my credit alone." ”

Duan Ganchong said: "The old man really didn't misunderstand General Lu, he is capable, but he will not be arrogant, the princess's trip to Handan, the old man is really relieved." ”

Wei Mingji pursed his lips and smiled: "Even the general praised you, which shows that he has recognized your ability in his heart." ”

Lu Yu was busy and modest.

Wei Mingji said again: "Now that the matter has been resolved, we will continue to set off." As for the seven-star doubtful tomb, why not hand it over to the general, anyway, who is buried there has nothing to do with us. ”

Duan Ganchong also felt that it made sense, so he said: "What the princess said is also reasonable, then leave this matter to the old man, anyway, the seven-star coffin in the tomb is not a harmful evil art, so naturally there is no danger." General Lu ordered the men below to take care of everything and escort the princess to Handan as soon as possible. ”

Lu Yu thought about it, anyway, he was just curious to figure it out, but it didn't matter Wei Mingji's itinerary, but it would drag on for a little longer. Previously, it had been delayed for many days because of the weather, and it was really not appropriate to delay it for three days because of the strange bird in Yecheng.

Besides, according to Zhang Wu's opinion and the stories that Duan Ganchong had heard, the Seven Star Coffin didn't seem to be a thing that harmed people with evil magic, and since people had already settled in the ground, it didn't seem good to dig people's graves again.

After explaining his idea to Wei Mingji and Duan Ganchong, Duan Ganchong also felt reasonable, but in case it would be used as a nest by other beasts in the future, Old Duan decided to wait for them to leave, and then send someone to fill it in.

The matter of the strange bird has come to an end, and the team finally set off to leave Yecheng.

Originally, Lu Yu was a little interested in the Seven Star Doubtful Tomb, but later because he was worried that if he didn't leave, it was likely that the showdown time with Xinlingjun would be shortened several times, and after discussing it with Zhang Wu, he decided to hurry up and get on the road.

This is Lu Yu's last journey in the Wei Kingdom, and he may not have to set foot in this land again in the future.

With the help of Wei Mingji in Chen County that day, he successfully avoided the Teng family's pursuit and owed her a favor, so Lu Yu also felt that he had to send her safely to Handan, and then try to leave and find the future Qin Shi Huang, who was still a hostage in Zhao State.

It seems safe at the moment, but in fact the crisis is near.

After Xinlingjun found out that Xiao Zhengwen and Dai Ji were not in the mansion, he would definitely send someone to chase after him. Just look at the silk book he handed over to Long Wuzhi to bring to Master Fan before, it has been said that if he finds that Lu Yu has any abnormal movements, he will kill him directly, don't think about it, there must be a large number of people behind him now.

He has lived in Zhao for so many years, I'm afraid he doesn't have to come in person, just need to pass the order, I'm afraid that King Zhao will have to give face to Xinling Jun, not to mention that Lu Yu's current identity is from Wei, and King Zhao will never offend Wei for him.

Therefore, it is necessary to arrive in Handan before Xinlingjun's people, and then transfer to "underground work", and it is not appropriate to reveal his identity again, otherwise it will definitely not be easy in Zhao State.

In this way, Lu Yu will not be as "beautiful" in Zhao as he was in Wei.

Lu Yu glanced back at Yecheng, who was gradually moving away from sight, and had a feeling that it was not very real, as if he had a dream.

Wei Congce immediately stepped forward and said, "Fortunately, it doesn't snow today, otherwise it will be difficult to walk for the remaining dozens of miles." ”

Lu Yu said with a smile: "Even if it snows, you have to hurry, remember that you originally said that you could arrive in Handan in half a month to twenty days, but now it's almost a month." ”

Wei Cong showed a rare smile: "The humble duty is just calculated according to the normal itinerary, I didn't think about this snowy weather, and solved the strange bird matter for Old General Duan in Yecheng, this can't be blamed for the humble position." ”

Lu Yu looked at the city wall that he could already see in front of him, and inexplicable emotions surged in his heart, because the future Qin Shi Huang lived there.
