When the flames are in the sky, the earth is painted with layers of heat waves, lush old bamboo, covering a northeast to southwest trending mountain range, green old bamboo, with the mountain, one after another, like the cool waves in the green lake, and like a huge waterfall flowing to the southwest.

The flames set off the green waves, as if to say that the hot and cold spring has left.

Through the old bamboo, walk into the green waves, climb the high mountain, enter the island of pines and cypresses, and then climb to the top of the mountain, a temple, set up here.

The temple covers an area of small size, the length and width are only a few zhang, but if you look closely, whether it is the appearance or the decorations, it is "revealed" with the traces of time.

Next to the temple, that is, at the highest point on the top of the mountain, a large area of pines and cypresses was cut down, and new wooden piers were "exposed", not only that, but in addition to trees such as pines and cypresses, even shrubs such as thorns were cut down.

Trees such as pines and cypresses were utilized, and a civil altar of more than 10 zhang rose from the ground.

On the brand-new altar, the soldiers of the Cao Army wearing military uniforms are busy decorating.

Under the altar, a group of people sat on the stump of the tree, sipping fragrant tea comfortably.

"Whew~"

A light breath was blown away, and the white gas on the teacup slowly drifted away.

"Hiss~"

Suck along the edge of the teacup, the hot tea flows into the mouth, and the mellow taste immediately surrounds the taste buds.

"This tea! Fragrant, mellow, bitter taste is much less, and there is no miscellaneous taste of various accessories! And it is easy to brew, saving the time of slow cooking, the lord, this tea will be popular all over the country in the future! ”

"Meng Xian, this tea is not so simple, not to mention the north and south of the river, the future, the whole world, the whole world, all crazy about it!"

"What the lord said is very true! Mr. Chen, you underestimate this tea!

I just ate a whole hare, you know, now we have more oil and water in the army, and the amount of food has become much less, and a rabbit has eaten me up, and I have an urge to vomit.

But after this tea is down, the feeling of vomiting is suddenly gone, the greasy in the mouth, magically disappeared, I feel that I can eat another rabbit! ”

"Oh! Hahaha! A certain shallow knowledge, let the lord, let Ziheng smile! ”

"Haha......"

There are three people who are talking to them, it is the lord of Cao Jun, Cao "sex", and the mastermind, Chen Yang of Zhenyang County, and Jun Sima Lu Fan.

There were several people laughing on the side, some wearing Confucian costumes and some wearing military uniforms, Zhenyang County Ling Lai Gong, Jiaozhou Thorn History Department Zhu Duwei, Cangwu Li County Lieutenant, and Sima District Jing of the Southern Navy, also among them.

And in addition to the red "color" of the military uniform, there are also pure blue "color".

"I didn't expect you to come first, Cao is really fortunate to have three lives!"

Cao "sex" said with a smile, and then raised the teacup to the middle-aged man in the blue "color" military uniform:

"Uncle Yue! It is an honor for you to come and support your son-in-law, and please drink tea! ”

The middle-aged man is not an outsider, it is Bao Sanniang's father, Bao Yang.

Bao Yang, who has entered middle age, and the people of Shanyue are aging fast, and his hair is half white, but his whole body is strong, revealing a lean atmosphere, which is not at all like a middle-aged person in Shanyue.

Bao Yang raised the teacup and swallowed it: "Lord!" To have a son-in-law like you is God's favor for someone! This is a family, there is no need to be so polite! ”

Cao "sex" called himself a son-in-law, but Bao Yang didn't dare to support him, and honestly called the lord, Bao Sanniang was favored, and she was also a concubine.

There is only one person who can call Cao "sex" a son-in-law, and that is the biological father of his wife Huang Yueying, a famous man in Jingzhou, and the Huang family of one of the eight major families in Jingzhou, Huang Chengyan.

"Haha! Brother Bao is arrogant! Cai admires! ”

Cai Yang then raised the teacup and drank it all, as if the cup was wine, not tea.

Cao "sex" glanced at Cai Yang, the setbacks again and again, and the blows again and again, made Cai Yang's arrogance wear down, and it was almost half a hundred, but he got rid of his bad temper, so it seems that he is a little more in line with his age.

I appreciate Cai Yang more and more, who can already be regarded as a veteran! Do you want to give him a chance to create a feat that far surpasses history?

Cao sighed inwardly.

Everyone talked and laughed, and the tea that won unanimous praise was nothing else, it was the roasted tea of later generations, compared to the current boiled tea with a lot of auxiliary ingredients such as green onion and ginger in order to cover up the bitter taste of directly dried tea leaves.

Roasted tea is simple, and there is no need to add anything, just brew with hot water, you can drink mellow tea, after the process of roasting tea, even with the bitterness of tea, have turned into mellow.

As a top Chinese fist product comparable to silk and porcelain, this thing that will be popular in the world in the future, what Cao said is not an exaggeration at all.

While talking and laughing, a herald ran over quickly: "Report! Lord! The first team to come to the alliance is about to climb to the top of the mountain and look at the flag, it is the Jiaozhou Shijia! ”

"Oh! Another in-law of a certain is here! Let's go and meet it! ”

With that, Cao "sex" got up, and everyone followed him, walking towards the only way to climb the mountain.

The mountain road is winding, high and steep, and it is still very long, Shiziqi, a team of dozens of people, all of them are strong and muscular men, but they walk crookedly, obviously they are extremely tired, and they can't even lift this Shiziqi straight.

The leader, dressed in bright iron armor, kept wiping the sweat from his forehead, raised the kettle, poured it for a long time, and the last drop of water dripped into his mouth.

Looking up with tired eyes, I just saw Cao Xing's party, and saw a familiar figure next to him, I couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, but it was quickly covered up, and he arched his hand: "Shi Xie meets the champion general!" Mr. Huang Long! ”

As soon as Cao "sex" looked at people, he almost didn't recognize it: "It turned out to be my brother-in-law, I haven't seen him for a while, my brother-in-law has a lot of spirits, and this uniform is worn on his body, which is really heroic and extraordinary!" ”

Mr. Huang Long laughed! Xie is just a Confucian student, wearing iron armor, and he doesn't look like a general, but you, Mr., Yunwen Yunwu! Xie admired! ”

Shi Xie is very modest and very polite, which makes Cao "sex" sigh, as if the incident that "forced" him to jump into the river and escape in winter was like a dream, and there was no holiday at all.

"Brother-in-law! Come on, come on! Let me introduce you! The one next to me is the Linglai County Temple in Zhenyang County, and this is the Yingchuan Chen family, Chen Yang ......"

As soon as Cao "sex" was introduced at the beginning, it was the two scholars, especially Chen Yang of the Yingchuan Wang clan, which made Shi Xie envious.

Today, the most particular about the family, the third introduction is to the scholar Zhang Min, from the Wuxian scholar Zhang family, came with Shi Xie, was the first scholar under Shi Xie, but before he arrived at Shi Xie's house, on the road, he became a subordinate of Cao "sex".

What's even more angry is that he put on a full shelf in front of him at the beginning, and he was very arrogant, and he didn't disdain to recognize him as the lord at all.

Now, as soon as I see Cao's sex, I recognize the Lord.
