Chapter Twenty-Four: The Art of Retreat

"Oh, you shopkeepers are really good at doing business, come to such a delicious cup of tea, you will be even hungrier when you drink it, and you can order food much more generously." Wei Yan smiled, kumquat and hawthorn are both appetizing things, and it is also a loss to the boss to come up with it.

Long Tian didn't think there was anything wrong with this cup of tea, but after hearing Wei Yan say this, he became more interested in this restaurant, and it seems that it is not unreasonable that the restaurant business is so prosperous.

"Guest, you've won the prize." Xiao Er saw that the shopkeeper's careful thinking was seen by the guest officer, and while secretly admiring it, he hurriedly took out the recipe and changed the topic: "Guest officer, these are the best dishes of the small shop, you can take a look, call me after you choose." ”

After speaking, Xiao Er ran away.

Wei Yan smiled, and continued to drink the fruit tea in his hand leisurely, he didn't need to look at the world's best dishes, he could recite them.

Finally, after asking what Long Tan meant, Wei Yan ordered Babao chicken, crispy roast duck, steamed sea bass, stewed scallops with silver teeth, braised minced meat eggplant, oyster and tofu soup; After a while, the fragrant meal was served.

Although he was worried about the situation in the Moon Domain, it was rare for Long Tian to be so happy today, even if it was a big thing, it was not as important as Long Tian; Besides, with his cronies watching over there, there shouldn't be a big mess.

"Long Tilt, come and taste, drink a cup of tea and be hungry, eat more."

The world's first product is really extraordinary, the dishes in front of him are not only full of color and flavor, but there are also those he has never eaten, such as this stewed scallop with silver teeth.

The method of stewed scallops with silver teeth is actually very simple, silver teeth are mung bean sprouts, pinch the head and remove the tail, leaving a crystal clear section in the middle for later use, and then clean the scallops one by one, process the internal organs, and separate the meat; Add the previous silver tooth and stew it in a pot until the soup is bright white.

The silver tooth is crystal clear, the refreshing taste is abnormal, and the scallops are even more tender in the flesh, this dish is very popular in the world, and the guests who have eaten it are full of praise.

Long Qian took a few bites, and sure enough, the taste was unique: "It's hard for you to think of such a good place, it's really worth the trip." ”

"If you like it, how about I take the cook to Mingyue Palace and cook it for you every day?" Wei Yan said expectantly.

"No......" Long Tian was about to say no, when suddenly a man in gray walked over crookedly, hit his elbow, and spilled a lot of soup from the spoon.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The man in gray seemed to have drunk a lot of wine and walked staggeringly, but he didn't forget to turn around and apologize to him.

Long Tian casually picked up the handkerchief and wiped his hands, not bothering him.

But the man in gray had no intention of leaving, staring straight at Long Tian's handsome face, like a disciple.

Long Tian frowned imperceptibly, his hand holding the spoon tightened, his mind was quick, and he couldn't bear any malicious gaze.

However, Wei Yan noticed something unusual, although this man made a drunken appearance, there was no smell of alcohol on his body, thinking of the news from the Moon Domain, his hand quietly touched the sword body beside him.

Sure enough, it was too late to say that, the man in gray didn't say a word, drew out his sword and stabbed at Long Tian, Long Tian felt the cold sword qi, slapped his hands on the table hard, turned back with force, grabbed the folding fan, and fought with the gray-clothed man.

Wei Yan saw that Long Tian was attacked, pulled out the seven-star sword he carried with him, and joined the battle, and the first product in the world suddenly turned into a pot of porridge, and the guests who ate were all scared away by this movement.

Among the chaotic guests, two more black-clothed people came out, with sharp and fierce techniques, and they were together at a glance.

Wei Yan stopped the two grappling alone, and Long Tian only had an ordinary folding fan in his hand, so he naturally didn't solve the enemy as quickly as Wei Yanlai; But his internal strength has already reached the point of reaching the peak, opening the sword of the man in gray, the dragon leaned his left hand and quickly took out his palm, killing the enemy under the palm with strong internal strength, when the man in gray convulsed twice and fell to the ground, Wei Yan also successfully killed one and seriously injured the other!

The sharp tip of the sword pointed directly at the man in black, and Wei Yanhan said in a cold voice, "Who sent you?" ”

The man in black clutched his badly injured chest and lingered on the ground, his dark eyes dazed, as if he didn't understand what Wei Yan was talking about.

Just when Long Tian lost patience and wanted to slash him to death with one palm, suddenly a burst of smoke rose, and the man in black on the ground disappeared in front of him.

Wei Yan and Long Tian quickly covered their mouths and noses, thinking that the smoke was poisonous, but they didn't expect it to be just ordinary smoke, in order to cover up the man in black leaving.

"The art of retreat?" Wei Yan looked around in the smoke, how could there be the shadow of the man in black, if it weren't for the two lying on the ground, he would have thought he was dazzled.

"In the early years, I heard that in a small country along the coast, the people there specialized in training dead soldiers and ninjas, and among them there was a kind of ability to escape to the land; I thought it was just a legend, but I didn't think it was true. The dragon poured into thought.

"But this place is 108,000 miles away from the coastal area, how can anyone use the art of retreat?" Wei Yan was puzzled.

"Are you saying that there are also people in the Central Plains who train dead soldiers?" Long Qian thought of this possibility, and then he realized the seriousness of the matter.

"I can't guarantee this, but I saw that the man just now was blind, his movements were sluggish, and nine times out of ten he was controlled; But why are these people here, and they are not afraid to attack us? Wei Yan kicked the dead man at his feet, reached out and touched him, hoping to find useful clues.

Sure enough, nothing was found unexpectedly, and since it was a dead man, it would not leave a trace at all.

Wei Yan suddenly thought of a possibility, quickly stood up, and exchanged a look with Long Tian, it seemed that Long Tian also thought of it.

"Moon Domain!!" The two said in unison.

Thinking of this, they didn't dare to stay for a moment, in order to avoid trouble, Wei Yan and Long Tian went out of the window one after the other, and went straight to the inn.

After packing the package and paying the house money, Wei Yan and Long Tian quickly set off for Sioux City, the southernmost point of the Yue Kingdom, in this prosperous town.

Sioux City is a typical land of fish and rice, where transportation is developed, rivers and seas are connected, commerce and trade are prosperous, and brothels are numerous; At night, the river is brightly lit, full of red lanterns hung everywhere, there is an endless stream of guests, dignitaries and nobles all yearn to linger, even the emperors of all dynasties have the experience of going down to the south of the Yangtze River, which shows the prosperity of Sioux City.

The Moon Domain is hidden in such an environment, first, it can be well hidden, and second, it is more convenient to find out the news.

The two of them hurried their horses, and the journey of ten days, they only took seven days to arrive, and a few horses were killed on the way, and finally arrived at the gate of the Zuichun Courtyard before it was dark.

As soon as the two of them stood still, the old bustard, dressed in fancy clothes, immediately greeted them, and instructed the little servant to take away the horses that were about to be paralyzed, and the old bustard respectfully welcomed them in.
