Chapter 883: Date in limerick poem
The marching rations were delicious.
Sang Qi admitted this, all the beef and mutton were left by him, and as for the pork and chicken, they were given to Lu Bo and others, and he didn't want vegetarian dishes or anything, saying that it was vegetarian, but in fact there was some meat in it.
Eat more of the food you brought and put it aside, rushing to eat the marching food of the Tang Dynasty, many cannibals are more and more sad the more they eat, the enemy's weapons are good, that is, their own side has no technology, and they will suffer a loss in the fight, admit it. But why is the logistics still better? The real wreckage of the battle.
Lu Bo and the others ate equally happily, the marching food sounded like it was for the soldiers, it was said that due to the long distance, it was not easy to preserve, and it should be difficult to swallow, but today I really felt the strength of the motherland, and it turned out that the marching food could be made better than that made in ordinary restaurants.
Lu Bo chewed a small piece of cucumber pickles in his mouth slowly, which looked like ordinary salted cucumbers, but it was pickled in shrimp oil, and it was salty and delicious in his mouth.
I swept the twenty-four subordinates who came with me again, and they all ate slowly, they hadn't eaten anything decent for many days, and the food now had the taste of home.
The people in the junction area didn't get much, three people ate two portions, and the part that didn't eat was snatched by many cannibals, one hundred and sixty-four people, at this moment, once again thought that they were Tang people, and no longer felt that they were dú lì and autonomous existence.
One hundred and sixty-four people whispered to each other, the meaning was similar, if they could go back alive, they would plant a Datang flag on the house at home to show their belonging, like many Datang people, when they were fine, they liked to put the national flag on the windows and eaves, and some even painted on the wall.
There was not much food for the march, and even if it was eaten slowly, it was wiped out by the people after two quarters of an hour, and many cannibals were not full, and each person only tasted one bite, so their eyes were on the can again.
Sang Qi sucked his fingers twice, and what he had just eaten was actually chopsticks. He doesn't know how to use it, and some people at the junction don't know how to use it either, but he still learns to call, after all, he is a Tang Dynasty, and he doesn't learn it now. To survive, you have to learn. Otherwise, it would be a shame.
"You, come here." Sang Qi shouted at Lu Bo, and Lu Bo drank the last mouthful of soup and burped. While rubbing his stomach, he walked over, the amount of food was very large, for the soldiers, he hadn't eaten seriously for many days, and he ate all of a sudden.
"Canned. Open it. Sang Qi looked at Lu Bo with a satisfied look, wanting to kill others, and thinking that if he was also a Tang Dynastyman......
Lu Bo burped again, picked up a can to study, the hidden head poem is vivid, he needs to think about it, how to open it, many canned food in China does not have a long shelf life, and it is made of bamboo. The cost is low, and now it is an iron sheet, so you have to look at the instructions, otherwise you will have to work hard to destroy it directly.
"Pull the ring." Lu Bo muttered, and stretched out a finger into the pull ring. Think about it, take it out, press the pull tab to one side first, and snap the can out of a small opening. Only then did he re-hook the tab and pull it in the other direction.
A piece of iron fell. Reveal the contents of the can.
"It's ...... What the? "Lu Bo was stunned, I haven't seen this kind of food, fried rice? Donburi? Why does it smell so much spice? This...... This is not the level of the chef in the water clouds, right? Onions, ginger and garlic actually account for a large proportion, and seasonings are used as accessories?
Three of the twenty-four people who came with him came up, and when they looked at the food in the can, they were also confused, and one of them couldn't help but say, "Won't it?" What are the chefs of the Zhang and Wang families going to do? Rebellion? Something still to eat? ”
"I'll open another one and take a look, maybe it wasn't installed when it was installed." Lu Bo took another can and opened it according to the previous method, and the inside was still the same as before.
Handed the can to Sang Qi, Lu Bo said embarrassedly: "That's it, it may be a newly researched meal, it is not yet mature, I believe that it can be adjusted after a while, and it will be good to eat it then, the chefs of the Zhang and Wang families are estimated to be very busy, and they are negligent for a while." ”
"yes, yes, normally, they shouldn't be what they are, really." The person who spoke just now assured that it seemed that the cooks of the Zhang and Wang families had made the food the way it was now, and they were embarrassed.
Sang Qi took the canned food to his nose and sniffed it, and nodded: "It tastes good, it's better than what we ate before we came, call someone to come over and eat." ”
He called a person at the junction to come over, he was afraid of poison, and it had nothing to do with him when the time came, and he thought that the seedling protection team would not be covered by artillery fire.
As a hostage, Lu Bo's twenty-five people suddenly had a sense of superiority in their hearts, and things like pig food were actually praised, and it was really sad to live a lot of cannibalism, no wonder there were many cannibals who were willing to come to Datang before, and they enjoyed different lives.
Twenty-five people thought like this, but no one took the initiative to try it, in case it was really poisonous.
Five of the men at the junction were called, and three more cans were opened, one for each of them, and they were allowed to eat.
The five people looked at the canned food in their hands, and when they saw that there were many cannibals coming to fight, one of them immediately said, "Take the chopsticks just now, and I'll eat them." ”
"Grab it with your hands." Sang Qi can't get used to this the most, he catches it with his hands, you can't catch it? If you have to use chopsticks, it makes people angry.
The five people reached out to grab the contents of the can, pinched out a little with three fingers, carefully put it into their mouths, chewed twice, blinked their eyes and clicked their mouths, and immediately reached out to grab them, and ate quickly.
Eat more than 20 mouthfuls in a row, look at each other, all alive, put your heart at ease and eat again.
"Wait a minute, you, how about it." Sang Qi stopped and asked a person.
The person who was asked nodded violently: "It's delicious, it would be better to put less ginger." ”
"There's nothing uncomfortable about it." Lu Bo also asked.
The five shook their heads.
Lu Bo pondered, opened a can again, stretched out his hand to grab it, and grabbed it with a person who came with him: "Owner, I'll come first." ”
After speaking, he began to eat, ate two bites, and a smile appeared on his face: "I'll just say, the things made by the chefs of the Zhang and Wang families can't be unpalatable, I don't think there is too much ginger, too much pepper, and it's not sheep soup." ”
Sang Qi slandered, hesitated and hesitated, but still insisted on not eating, let the five people finish the food in the can, and everyone surrounded the five people to see the reaction after a while.
"I, I still want to eat." One of the five said eagerly.
Lu Bo stopped: "Don't be busy, you are usually hungry for too long, and suddenly eating too much will cause problems, do you want to drink water." ”
Personally, I really want to eat, and I always feel hungry in my stomach.
Someone brought a water bag, poured a few large mouthfuls into each person, and sat on the ground waiting. See if it's dead or alive.
The shadows shining from the sun began to grow gradually, and the five of them still had nothing to do, but digested and digested, and sat down one by one. With a happy smile on his face. Enjoy the feeling of being fed up in the sun.
"Eat, divide half of the people to eat first." Sang Qi saw that the person who tried the food was alive and well, waved his hand, and ordered.
Cannibalism has been waiting for a long time. Immediately, half of the people stood up, opened the can in the same way as Lu Bo had learned before, reached out and grabbed it and stuffed it into their mouths, there was not the slightest taste of pork in the mixed food, and they could taste it. It uses mutton fat, some mutton, and various other seasonings, and eats it until the stomach is warm.
When each of them ate two cans in a row, and the others continued to wait under Sang Qi's order, the clouds in the sky floated and flew away, and it was another half an hour, and the many cannibals who ate the cans were still alive, and the five people before did not see the slightest problem.
Lu Bo thought about it. said to Sang Qi: "General Sang Qi, eat, the seedling team will not poison, they know that you will let us try first, poisoning will poison us." They came to the rescue, not to harm anyone, but to be careful in the process of joining up with the main force on your side, they kept firing cold shots. I guess you're enough people. ”
Sang Qi was happy when he heard the previous words. Hearing the behind, his face sank, and now according to the Tang Dynasty, it is difficult to ride a tiger, and he doesn't dare to kill and try, and the other party is going to shoot again when he is in a hurry, and he has to walk for a few days, what should I do?
Discuss with the other party, let people go yourself, so that they don't attack? No, if you change it, you will chase and kill them immediately, and tell them that one of them will kill one of them? It is estimated that it is useless, yesterday they dared to shoot.
Sang Qi, who couldn't find a good way, gritted his teeth, took a can and opened it to eat.
The other half of the people who didn't eat just now also opened the cans as fast as they could.
When he ate it in his mouth, Sang Qi knew why the person who ate it just now had that kind of expression, it was so fragrant, although it was cold, but the contents did not make people feel disgusting when they ate it in their mouths, and there was a feeling of heat in their stomachs, as if they had strength all over their bodies.
When they had eaten their fill, there were only twenty-one cans left in the woods, and Sang Qi naturally took the rest of the cans for himself, rested for a while, let the hostages stand up, tied them firmly, and put two men with knives behind each of them, around their own people, and continued to move forward.
After walking a little way, I saw a small river, the water was clear, and I could see the rocks and small fish swimming below.
The crowd shouted with cheers, there was water.
Lu Bo squatted down and got his hands wet, washed his face first, then picked it up and took a sip, and asked Sang Qi: "Let's take a bath, and change our clothes by the way." ”
The twenty-four people who came with him looked at Sang Qi together, they came to do business, naturally they had to bring things, each person brought an extra set of clothes, as well as washing tools, which were confiscated before, and then Lu Bo went to please others, became a traitor to the Tang Dynasty, and rewarded it back, but it has been useless, mainly because many cannibals are not used to wearing clothes, and the use of other tools is also very strange.
"There's no poison in the water?" Sang Qi nodded and asked.
"How much poison does flowing water have? You can rest assured. Lu Bo showed a flattering smile again, shamelessly pleasing others.
He did it to stay alive and create opportunities for the nursery.
But Wang Miao, who was watching with a telescope from a distance, pursed his lips, he had already received telegram news from China, and he knew something about Lu Bo's family situation.
He is a good businessman, he has two wives and seven children, both parents are here, and he has two wives and his grandfather, one of whom is still alive, and he is as respectful as his grandfather.
The family has a large courtyard in Beijing, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Yizhou, and Luoyang, and people have been smart since childhood, and they took over the family business at the age of 16, and they got along well with the local government personnel, and there was no illegal case, and they did not send money to the local school, but they opened a special printing shop, a very small printing house, which specially printed books for children, and distributed them for free.
Five years ago, I found that this trade route made more money, so I brought people to come to the business, and the family was mainly engaged in the leather business, and later added a medicinal herb and sold it to the hospital.
It is a very good wealthy businessman, Rìzi lives very well, the family is harmonious, and he is kind to others, he does not take out loans in the bank, and his family has a lot of cash, but he is willing to give the hospital a part of the money owed on credit for medicinal materials.
He was also talented himself, knowing six foreign languages and scripts, writing a good calligraphy, and also fond of painting. Literati were often invited to hold poetry meetings.
Good to employees.,Have a pretty high personality charm.。
Usually the people who meet the government are neither humble nor arrogant, but now they see him like a dog that pleases his master.
Wang Miao's heart was very uncomfortable, he felt that he had not done a good job, and every smile he saw Lu Bo felt like a knife had been stabbed into his chest. He picked up the sniper rifle next to him and directly took down the other party's leader. But I didn't dare.
After he threatened others, he actually felt empty in his heart, but fortunately, he found that the other party was illiterate, not only did he not know Datang's words. They don't even know their own words, how important the school is, and it can play a life-saving role at critical moments.
Wang Miao looked at it, estimating the time when the people here would converge with the main force, and the time when he would release the canned medicine. It was decided not to shoot the other side in the process, at most a dozen shots into the sky, so that the speed of the team would be slowed down.
In case he kills one of the other party's people, and the other party kills one of his own country in retaliation, then is it to fire or not to fire?
"If only I could know what the other party's leader thinks, wait, wait, wait for me, when you cry." Putting away the binoculars, Wang Miao gritted her teeth and said.
The cannibalistic team marched at the same speed as Wang Miao had imagined. They walked slowly, leaving some of the hostages outside and constantly changing positions for the hostages, while their men tried to hide behind the hostages, leaving some of the hostages mixed in with their crowd. So that the Tang army will be bogeyed.
When night fell, many cannibals were tired, and none of them were killed by each other during the day today, but the psychological pressure was even greater. They knew that there were countless pairs of eyes watching them, and they were still looking for an opportunity to kill them.
Nervousness when walking during the day. At night, they dare not relax, the torches and fires burn, and from time to time there is a crackling sound, and any sound when the wood cracks makes people listen to such a worry, afraid that it will be a gunshot.
When it was time to eat at night, many cannibals began to miss the rìzi during the day, and they ate canned food during the day, and then ate the fried barley brought by them at night, which was really difficult to swallow, without so many seasonings, without delicious pickles, they could only swallow it in their stomachs.
Tonight, the hostages had nothing to eat, and many cannibals thought that they had eaten a lot at noon and could be hungry.
Twenty-five people in Lu Bo still gathered together, relatively speaking, there were many cannibals standing outside the tent, and inside the tent was their own world.
"Drink water, I guess I'll have something to eat tomorrow morning." Lu Bo was also hungry, touched his stomach, and said to his subordinates, picked up the water bag, and poured a few mouthfuls to make his stomach not so empty.
"Why don't you give food at night?" A person holds a water bag and mutters when he doesn't want to drink.
"I don't know." Lu Bo shook his head, he didn't complain, he just wondered, it is said that since the seedling team has found himself and others, they should send something to eat, and now that the cannibals have finished eating, his group of people are still hungry.
When the time came, when everyone was hungry and nervous, it quietly came.
A gunshot broke the silence of the night, and the cannibals who kept vigil were startled, looking around to see who had been killed, the fire was still burning, the dark clouds in the sky were rolling, and the stars and moon could not be seen, which made people feel depressed.
Sang Qi, who slept in his clothes, walked out of the tent under the escort of several people and asked loudly, "Who died?" ”
After waiting for a while, someone came over and reported: "No, no one is dead, are you going to let us go and pick up something?" ”
"From which direction are the gunshots coming from?" As soon as Sang Qi heard something, his stomach felt empty again.
"Over there." Someone pointed to a place with his hand, there is a mountain, and the sound of gunfire echoes and it is difficult to distinguish.
"Take someone over and have a look." Sang Qi commanded.
Someone came and called the hostage to check on the place where the gunshots rang out, and the hostages woke up and were awakened by the gunshots.
It didn't take long for the people who had gone to check it back, and sure enough, they were carrying things, still wooden boxes, part of which were marching rations and part canned food.
The marching rations were exactly one hundred and eighty-nine, and it seemed that one was prepared for each hostage, but there were only two hundred canned food, and it was definitely not enough to eat more people.
Sang Qi didn't need to look at it to think that the marching food was all with pork, specially sent for the hostages, and 200 cans were his own.
"Wake up, let them eat, don't let me sleep well, I won't let them sleep well." Sang Qi ordered.
Lu Bo and the others were shouted, and came to the outside of the tent in a daze, and when they saw the marching food under the light of the torches, they were all very happy, and they had something to eat, but the time was really speechless, why did it come in the middle of the night.
"General Sangqi, thank you, thank you, can you eat it?" Lu Bo trotted in front of Sang Qi and bowed again and again to thank him.
"Eat, eat and sleep well, and hurry up tomorrow." Sang Qi didn't want them to eat, and he was worried that it would affect his physical strength, so he had to agree depressedly.
He also picked up a can himself, opened it and was about to eat it, when he suddenly stopped and handed it to Lu Bo: "Add a can for you, you eat first." ”
"Yes, yes." Lu Bo received it and grabbed it directly, he knew that Duo Cannibal wanted him to test the poison, and he was really cautious.
While eating, he used his eyes to read the words on the can, and the words written on it were changed again, for the 'three watches to deliver meals for half a day at night, just because of the long distance and difficult transportation. Peace of mind and wait for the clouds to disperse, such as more like rì and as before. ’
After seeing the words, Lu Bo's legs trembled, and he understood that when he started it, three days later, the limerick on the can was not written clearly, but he knew it.
Because he remembered that he held a poetry meeting before he came, and there was a person who wrote poems, and everyone commented that when it was his turn, he said that it was more like a rì, and the sound of the bang was like the rising moon.
So today's limerick poem says that the three watches deliver food, and the back says that it is more like rì, which is to tell yourself the time to do it.
Lu Bo sighed in his heart, it was so powerful, he found out his family background in one day, and then used it to send a message in the can, how many resources did Xiaobao and Juan Juan mobilize? Otherwise, it would not have been possible to find out so clearly.
Three days, and three more days, if you don't tie the mulberry to the chain and put it in the cage, your name will be written backwards, no, horizontally.
Sang Qi watched Lu Bo eat, and continued to wait after eating, he wanted to find a few more people to test the poison, but he was reluctant, if there was no poison, the people on his side would eat less.
