Chapter 511: A Strange Noise in the Dark

"Hahahaha~, you are just a king of the dead country, but I am the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, even if I am sued to my father, at most I will only scold a few words, saying that I am not sensible, as for the attitude of other people, I don't care at all!" Zhao Yan laughed when he heard this, he was very unhappy with Li Liangzuo, and he couldn't make him feel better even if he was scolded.

"You ......" Li Liangzuo also glared at Zhao Yan angrily at this time, he really had no way to deal with people like Zhao Yan.

But at this moment, Huang Wude whispered softly in Zhao Yan's ear: "King of the county, Li Liangzuo's identity is very important, it is best to be able to return to the capital alive, if he is hungry again, there may be problems, so I think it is better to give him something to eat, right?" ”

Zhao Yan didn't want to really starve Li Liangzuo to death, he thought about it for a moment when he heard Huang Wude's words, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, let someone bring him something to eat, but you can't take too much care of him in the future, what our soldiers eat, he will eat!" ”

"The old slave understands!" Huang Wude agreed and immediately ordered someone to get the rice, and after a while, the other party ran in with a large bowl of rice porridge, as well as a plate of pickles and a steamed bun, which was also the dinner of the soldiers today. After these meals were delivered, Li Liangzuo, who was already hungry and crazy, immediately took a big gulp of the porridge bowl and gulped it up, no longer caring about the majesty of the emperor, Zhao Yan sneered at this, turned around and left the lobby, but he didn't seem to notice, but in the corner of the lobby, there was a pair of hateful eyes staring at his back.

As soon as he got out of the lobby, he saw that he was still sitting by the fire with a big bowl and eating, and it happened that Zhao Yan was fine now, so he walked over, but he saw him at this time, and hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks and saluted Zhao Yan and said, "King of the county." How did you get here? ”

Zhao Yangang wanted to answer, but when he saw the big bowl of food next to Chong Ge, he couldn't help frowning and asked, "General Chong, what are you eating, it looks like noodles, but why is this color?" ”

I saw that the bowl of the seed was red and mushy. It looks like blood, and you can barely see the noodles inside by the light of the fire, but the color is too weird.

"Fermented bean curd noodles, do you want to try it too?" He smiled and said that this was his favorite meal.

"You...... Do you eat tofu with noodles? Zhao Yan was also shocked when he heard this, he was a northerner in his previous life, and he had eaten countless types of noodles, but he had never eaten noodles mixed with tofu milk.

"King Jun, pour some fermented bean curd juice into this cooked noodle. The taste is amazing, I have to eat two bowls a day, and if you taste it, you will definitely love it! Chong Ge smiled again, he didn't know that tofu was actually invented by Zhao Yan, otherwise he would definitely be very grateful to Zhao Yan, because the taste of tofu was too much for his appetite.

"Hehe, I'll forget it. Hurry up and finish eating, let's go on patrol again, I always feel a little restless today! Zhao Yan smiled and waved his hand. To him, the fermented bean curd was like a legendary dark dish, and he really didn't have the courage to try it.

Hearing that Zhao Yan was going to inspect, Chong Ge immediately picked up the big bowl, took a few bites of the noodles in the bowl into his mouth, and then wiped his mouth and followed Zhao Yan to inspect the post station again. They didn't find anything abnormal, so Zhao Yan and the others mainly went around the outside of the post station this time.

There were also many soldiers patrolling outside the post station, and when they saw Zhao Yan and Chong Ge, they all saluted, and Zhao Yan took the opportunity to ask if they had encountered anything unusual, and these soldiers also shook their heads. The entire area around the station seemed to be very normal, and nothing unusual happened.

Zhao Yan observed the surrounding land while walking, and finally came to the woods on the east side of the post station, only to see that tents had been set up here, and bonfires had also been lit in front of the tents, and hundreds of people were scattered around the fires and were eating.

I saw that almost all of the people who were driven out of the post station were merchants and their companions, and several convoys were parked next to the tents, and the wagons were covered with tarpaulins, and the contents were bulging with goods that were supposed to be hauled in. Speaking of which, the Western Xia had just perished, and the Great Song Dynasty's rule over this place was not stable, and the robbers and robbers were also endless, but even so, there were still some bold merchants who transported goods to the Western Xia, intending to take this opportunity to make a lot of money, so during this time, Zhao Yan saw these caravans in addition to the army.

For Zhao Yan and their arrival, those businessmen had already seen it, and several of the leading people gathered together to look at Zhao Yan as if they had discussed for a while, and finally one of the gray-haired old businessmen walked out of the crowd and saluted Zhao Yan's side and said: "Villain Hu Qing has met with a few generals, I don't know if the general has anything to tell me to wait here?" ”

In the army, Zhao Yan usually wears leather armor, plus the people around him are also wearing armor, and the old businessman opposite doesn't know Zhao Yan, so he will call him a general, Zhao Yan didn't say anything about it, but said with a smile: "This old man Hu, this general is on official business this time, and he has no choice but to drive you out of the post station, and I am also a little uneasy in my heart. ”

"No, no, the general is so polite, Tian Yicheng from the post station just now brought us dinner, which has made us very grateful, and we will leave tomorrow, so it will be one night outside, and there is no difficulty!" Hu Qing waved his hand again and again in fright when he heard Zhao Yan's words, and it was estimated that it was the first time he had met such a kind general as Zhao Yan.

"Haha~, it's good if there is no difficulty, then General Ben won't bother you!" Zhao Yan said that he turned around and was about to leave, which made the old businessman on the opposite side also breathe a sigh of relief, but at this moment, Zhao Yan suddenly turned around and looked at him again and said, "Uncle Hu, I heard your accent a little familiar, I don't know where it is, what kind of goods did you transport here this time?" ”

"General Qiyu, Xiao Lao'er is from Luoyang, and this time I transported some grain and cloth, and I am going to Xingqing Mansion to exchange some goods and transport them back, and I can also earn some hard-earned money." Hu Qing immediately replied without hesitation.

"Haha, then it's no wonder, General Ben is from Tokyo, Tokyo is not far from Luoyang, and the accents of the two places are also very similar. Zhao Yan laughed again when he heard this.

"What the general said is that Tokyo and Xijing are not far away, so Xiao Lao'er and the general are barely fellow villagers." Hu Qing heard Zhao Yan's words and said again, Luoyang is the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, and the location is western, so it is also called Xijing, but at this time, Luoyang has long ceased to be prosperous after the rebellion at the end of the Tang Dynasty, but the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and the scale of Luoyang is also one and two in the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhao Yan had passed by Luoyang when he came to Xixia, and he had been there for a few days, so he also had some understanding of Luoyang City, and now he met Hu Qing, and immediately chatted with the other party about Luoyang's human feelings, and the other party also answered like a fluent, and even finally built a few scenic spots in Luoyang to Zhao Yan, which made Zhao Yan very happy, and even said that when he passed by Luoyang, he must go to these scenic spots.

Next, Zhao Yan chatted with a few other businessmen for a few more words, and then said goodbye and left, and Hu Qing and the others also kept sending Zhao Yan and them outside the camp, and then returned to the camp to rest.

As time passed, a waning moon finally rose to the middle of the sky, and the sky was shrouded in a thin layer of clouds, making the moon in the sky look a little hazy, and the earth was also shrouded in a layer of dim light, and the whole night seemed quiet, as if the whole heaven and earth had fallen asleep.

Most of the soldiers in the post station also fell asleep, only a patrol team walked through the courtyard from time to time, and the soldiers outside could still maintain their spirits at first, but as time went by, they all became listless, and even a few had begun to be lazy and dozed off.

Li Liangzuo's carriage was parked in the lobby, but in addition to his carriage, the lobby was also full of soldiers, only to see that the tables and chairs were used by the soldiers to build a simple bed, and the tables and chairs could only be laid on the floor if they did not grab the tables and chairs, but no matter where they slept, they slept very sweetly at this time, and the snoring was even louder.

Although Li Liangzuo often leads troops to fight, he has his own special camp, and he hates others to disturb him the most when he sleeps, because he may be awakened as long as he hears a little noise, and several close attendants around him were killed by him because of this, and now let him sleep with a group of snoring soldiers, which is simply a kind of torture for him, so he can't sleep over and over, and finally simply sits up, anyway, he is locked in this carriage every day, and he can sleep at any time if he is sleepy.

The lights and candles in the lobby have been extinguished, and it is dark all around, Li Liangzuo sat motionless in the carriage, thinking about his possible fate in the future, maybe he was imprisoned for a lifetime, maybe he was secretly executed by Da Song, but no matter what kind of fate, he was ready to accept it, anyway, he is also alone now, and the big deal is just death.

But at this moment, Li Liangzuo suddenly heard a strange sound in those thunderous snoring, which made him immediately look around vigilantly! (To be continued......)
