"Come on, come on, put your car here first, and I'll take you to the game house." Hu Xi saw that Zhang was angry, and patted his head helplessly.

"Brother Hu Xi, you said that the thieves now are real, I am a poor man riding an electric car, why do you say they are embarrassed to steal my battery?" Zhang Su could only helplessly get into Hu Xi's car, and Hu Xi took him towards the newly opened game house in the suburbs of the south of the city, and Zhang Su complained endlessly along the way.

"What do you steal if you don't steal your battery? You let them steal the car to they have to dare, the battery is not valuable, you go to the public security bureau to report will not file a case for you, I lost a mobile phone last time, go to the police uncle to call the shots for me, from the report to the present three years, I haven't seen any follow-up, you have a broken battery is not worth as much as my mobile phone, so don't think about getting it back, unless you install a locator on the battery. Hu Xi said with relief.

"Hey, eat a trench and grow wise, I'll put a position on the battery next time, if I know who stole my car, I'll kill him directly, and then give him the soul to degree, this is called a one-stop service for the soul master." Zhang Su said cruel words.

"People are back to normal, it's just that this temper is good, don't brag, if you dare to use the soul master ability to deal with ordinary people, Old Man Yan will be the first to temper you." Hu Xi knew that Zhang was just a cruel remark, and deliberately ridiculed.

Zhang Su didn't answer, and then asked Hu Xi where to eat: "Brother Hu Xi, where is the game restaurant you said?" ”

"The southern suburbs of the city, it seems to be on a road called Reed Lake, leaning on the intersection of the inner river and the outer river of Qicheng, not far away, I will take you to estimate that it will take you to arrive in another twenty minutes." Hu Xi replied.

"I always feel that the place you said is a little familiar to me, I don't know if I've been there before." Zhang Su pondered for a while, on the reed lake road in the southern suburbs of the city, he seemed to have a little impression of this place, but he forgot what he was doing there, and thought about it, maybe he passed by there when he received the reward before.

"Have you been? You're okay to go that far to eat, huh? No, that store only opened four months ago, and you haven't been out for four and a half months, how can you know, you must be mistaken. Hu Xi thought about it for a while, and after a little analysis of the time, he thought that Zhang Su might have misremembered.

"Maybe." Zhang Su nodded, if it was really a newly opened hotel, then he really didn't have a chance to go.

As Hu Xi estimated, only twenty minutes later, the two came to the game restaurant that Hu Xi said, the restaurant is built in the suburbs, covering a small area of land, two-story duplex small attic, the exterior wall is exposed with bluelime cement putty, even the paint is not painted, it is an old-fashioned farmhouse restaurant appearance, from the outside does not look too appetizing, but those who know know that mountain delicacies are often hidden in this kind of inconspicuous restaurant, and that kind of pure natural local delicacies can only be eaten here. This kind of restaurant can also gather a lot of diners.

From a distance, there is no obvious big-character signboard in front of this game restaurant, but a small dark wooden plaque is erected at the door of the first floor, which reads "Luzhuang Hotel" in gold letters, the name is not very foreign, but it should be related to Lujiazhuang in the suburbs of Qicheng, Zhang Su guessed that the owner here may be from Lujiazhuang.

Looking closer, there is a cement uneven open space in front of the game hall, a few irregular parking spaces are drawn a little away from the door, and several private cars of different brands are parked, showing that the store is not deserted; Closer there were a few plastic ropes tied to them, and between a few wall studs and a few outer edge columns, the ropes looked sturdy, and they were hung with dried bacon sausages, chicken breast fillets, and a few wild cats hovering underneath, but no amount of jumping could reach the delicacy above.

Before entering the door, there is a horizontal bar shelf next to the door, the shelf is more than two meters high, and there is a hawksbill hook as big as a crane hook hanging on the hook, and a goat that has been slaughtered not long ago hangs on the hook, the goat has been skinned, the whole belly bag has been hollowed out, and the four legs of the mutton have also been cut off, leaving most of the body to rotate slowly in the wind, and there is still a gelatinous blood clot under the body.

"How many bosses?" As soon as Hu Xi entered with Zhang Su, a young man who looked thin greeted him and asked.

"Just the two of us, do you have a private room?" Hu Xi replied.

"Yes, yes, you two want a small room?" The young man looked thin, but he looked quite clever.

"Is there an extra charge for the small room?" Hu Xi continued to ask.

"No, the people who know the small shop are all old customers, or some friends introduced by old customers, friends from all over the world come to take care of the small shop's business, how embarrassed to charge this kind of fee." The young man replied happily.

"Then let's open a small room, so that we can talk." Hu Xi nodded.

"Okay, the private Shuxiang Pavilion is empty, I'll take you two over." The young man nodded and led the way in front, quite like the shopkeeper in the restaurant in ancient times.

Zhang Su and Hu Xi followed behind the young man in the running hall unhurriedly, and the three of them walked to the corridor on the west side of the first floor, and after a while, they came to a small room, in the center of the room there was a round table with a red silk base and a white square scarf cover, there were six chairs around the table, and there were two spare chairs reserved at the door, indicating that this room could hold up to six to eight people, and two people used a standard room for six people, which made Zhang Su really feel a little cold.

"Are the two bosses still satisfied?" Entering the house, the guy who ran the hall asked politely at Hu Xi and Zhang Su.

"Well, it's not bad, that's it, are you ordering from the menu or going to the back kitchen." Hu Xi looked at the room and thought it was not bad, so he nodded, and then asked the guy who ran the hall.

"It's okay, you two look at the noodles, it should be the first time to come, you can order food in our back kitchen, and by the way, you can also visit the unique game in our restaurant, our boss just took the hound to the mountains yesterday to hunt a few wild pheasants and hares, and they are still alive, and now they are prepared in our back kitchen, the opportunity is rare, and the two bosses can try it." The guy made a recommendation to Hu Xi.

"Okay, let's go to the back kitchen to see what to eat, I was introduced by a friend, just to find some game to taste." Hu Xi responded.

As soon as the guy heard Hu Xi say that he was going to the back kitchen, he knew that this was a master who came to spend money to eat game, so he didn't say a word and led the way in front, and walked briskly in front, because Shuxiang Pavilion was not far from the back kitchen, and the three of them arrived at the kitchen of Luzhuang Hotel in only about a minute.

Although the Luzhuang Hotel looks like a farmhouse restaurant made of mud putty from the outside, it has a unique world when you enter the back kitchen, with a clean and tidy decoration style, various stainless steel cabinets, shelves, brand-name gas stoves and range hoods, huge freezer refrigerators, automatic dishwashers, two chefs are stir-frying with spoons, and two or three staff members are busy preparing ingredients.

Hu Xi looked at the kitchen of this game restaurant, his face showed a slight surprise, and after thinking for a while, he also figured out the truth, but no one cared about Zhang Su's surprised expression at the moment, Zhang Su had indeed been to this place.

"Boss, look here, these pots are fried hot dishes and mixed cold dishes, they can be served directly, no need to wait, the shelves next to them are good stir-fried dishes, the ingredients have been prepared, now to stir-fry, it will not be very slow, but if you two want to eat some country game, we have sausages, bacon, air-dried pheasant and lake fish, as well as live pheasants, live hares, wild fish, wild loaches, etc., it may be a little slower to do, it depends on how you are ready to eat." The guy introduced.

It's just a meal in itself, but after being introduced by the guy, Zhang Su realized that there are so many things to eat, and simple things have become not so simple.

"There is no basis for your words, you can take me to see the live game first, I want to see if it is true." After listening to the guy's introduction, Hu Xi couldn't hold back his curiosity anymore, and he really wanted to see the appearance of those wild things.

The young man led Hu Xi and Zhang Su to the depths of the kitchen, turned a corner, pointed to a few baskets woven with bamboo strips on the ground, and said to Hu Xi: "This is it." ”

With diamond-shaped big eyes on the basket, Hu Xi and Zhang Su looked inside through the big eyes, and sure enough, there was a living creature in each basket, the injured flower-feathered pheasant, and the gray-haired hare at the foot of the slope, because there was a clear difference from the domestic, Hu Xi and Zhang Su could see at a glance that these small animals were indeed real wild creatures.

"How are you all selling?" Hu Xi asked.

"Ordinary dishes are clearly priced, but this game is not on the menu, you can say a fixed price, and if it is suitable, it can be sold." The guy explained.

"Well, it's okay, Brother Zhang, how do you say we eat?" Hu Xi looked at Zhang Su and asked with a wicked smile.

"Well, you can kill me, but I won't go back on what I promised you, man, what do ordinary chickens do? How much is it? Zhang Su asked the guy with a wry smile.

As soon as the guy heard that Zhang Su was the host of the treat, he ran to Zhang Su and replied: "Iron pot chicken and spicy chicken are seventy-nine, and potsticker stewed chicken is eighty-nine, because of the addition of wild mountain mushrooms, so it is a little more expensive." ”

"Pheasants are more expensive, right?" Zhang Su continued to ask.

The guy nodded.

"Then use pheasants to make a portion of iron pot chicken, the price is one hundred and twenty-eight." Zhang Su quoted.

When the guy heard Zhang Su's offer, he looked at Zhang Su in surprise, and asked after a while: "Boss, do you know our internal pricing?" ”

"How?" Zhang asked puzzled.

"One hundred and twenty-eight is the price line given by the boss, below this price is not sold, higher than this price can be sold, but generally the high price can be much higher than this one, this price line people except some old customers few people know, your exit has a whole number, I can only think that you know the internal price." The guy explained.

"Well, I guess, sell?" Zhang Su replied casually, and then asked.

"If it is sold, it will be sold if it meets the price given by the owner of this hotel." The man replied,

"Okay, let's have another sweet and sour carp, how about a wild lake fish, seventy-two?" Zhang Su continued to order.

"Yes, little boss, you are really a god, the price of this wild lake fish is also the boss's price line." The guy looked at Zhang Su in surprise, and his mouth opened wider.

"I'll just order these, Brother Hu Xi, do you want anything more?" Zhang Su ignored the surprise of his fellow man, and turned his head to ask Hu Xidao.

"It's okay to think brother, the first time I saw you so extravagant and wasteful, no, it's generous, then I won't kill you, let's have another rice for each person, these two hard dishes are enough for the two of us to eat." Hu Xi smiled and patted Zhang Su's shoulder.

Zhang Su nodded and said to the guy, "Then let's have two more servings of rice." ”

"You don't need to order rice, we will give it away for free if the price of the order exceeds one hundred and fifteen, do the two bosses need anything?" The guy replied.

"No, that's all." Hu Xiqiang replied first.

"Okay, the two bosses just go back to the private room and wait, and the dishes will be delivered to you when they are ready." The guy nodded, took out a piece of paper and a pen, wrote down Hu Xi and Zhang Su's orders on a sticky note, and responded.

Zhang Su and Lu Sen left the kitchen and returned to the private room called Shuxiang Pavilion again, each disassembling a set of utensils, waiting for the game to come.

"I thought you'd order a drink." Zhang Su took the lead in speaking to Hu Xi.

"I don't dare, it stands to reason that I should go back after seeing you, now it belongs to the work hours to use the convenience of my position to come out to play, if I drink again, I will definitely be beaten by Old Man Yan as a sandbag when I go back, but you, why are you a little depressed from just entering the kitchen?" Hu Xi asked.

"If I say I've been to this place, do you believe it?" Zhang Su asked.

"How is that possible? Didn't you hide at home all the time this restaurant opened? Hu Xi asked puzzled.

"I came here when it opened, and that's why I know the price of game given by their owner." Zhang Su explained.

"When did you come?" Hu Xi continued to ask.

"On the day when Luxemgo last invited me to cooperate in soul hunting, it was in this place that I received a bounty for the six-handed dragon during the day, and the six-handed dragon was hiding in the kitchen we went to just now, and I ran directly to the kitchen to hunt the ghast, so as soon as I entered the kitchen just now, I recalled the scene at that time." Zhang Su replied.

"I see." Hu Xi sighed.

"I've seen that guy too, he walked in front of the owner and the proprietress of this restaurant and led me into the kitchen, but he doesn't seem to remember me anymore, yes, it's been more than four months." Zhang Su continued to explain.

"It stands to reason that the first requirement of the guy who runs the hall is to have good eyes, the young guy just now is very clever, and his eyes should not be bad, I think he can't remember what happened at that time, but he doesn't have the memory of that time at all." Hu Xi said thoughtfully.

"What do you mean?" Zhang asked puzzled.

"Zhang Su, you run less reward, run more and meet a duplicate person, you will find one thing, that is, the people you have met in the bounty will be very strange to you, isn't that young guy just not impressed with you at all?" Hu Xi bought a pass and prompted.

"You mean to ......" After Hu Xi's prompting, Zhang Su seemed to understand something.

"You understand now, why the closing work after each bounty is handed over to Fan Zengming Brother Fan, in addition to letting him inspect the work of the soul master and charging transaction fees to the publisher, there is also to clear the memories of the people involved about the soul, so whether it is the guys here, the boss, or the various people you met when you executed the bounty order, they will no longer leave an impression of you, like drinking Meng Po soup, this is Brother Fan's job." Hu Xi explained.

"I see. I don't know until now. Zhang Zhen rubbed his head in shock, and suddenly realized.

As Zhang Su and Hu Xi discussed the matter of clearing their memories, the meals had been served one after another, Zhang Su and Hu Xi began to taste the taste of the food, Zhang Su ate game for the first time, he felt that the taste of wild pheasants and ordinary chickens was essentially different, wild pheasants were delicious, the meat was firm, even if the skin and meat were cooked under high temperature stir-frying, it was still difficult to chew, and it tasted like eating raw meat.

Zhang Su is not a gourmand and doesn't care about what he eats, but Hu Xi spoke highly of the iron pot pheasant after tasting it, and the words of the evaluation were not much different from Zhang Su's feelings.

Sweet and sour wild lake fish is also very good, the fish body curls the tail standing in the plate, the whole fish is fried outside the crispy inside, the sweet and sour sauce is poured all over the fish body, through the burnt crispy fish skin into the fish, the fish meat after the flavor is not only with the freshness of the game, but also with the sweet smoke after the sweet and sour mixture, the taste is excellent, especially the wild fish protein content is higher, after being fried, there is some crispness, no wonder Hu Xi wants to order the sweet and sour carp here.

"It's really distinctive, I've been to so many restaurants, and it's the chicken and fish here that make me feel delicious." Hu Xi was eating, his face full of happiness.

"That's two hundred oceans for two dishes." Zhang Su's eyelids jumped when he thought of his wallet.

"Okay, okay, it's a big deal." Hu Xi said with relief.

"No need, my eldest brother helped me clean up the house today and became a cleaner once, I have to pay a cleaning fee anyway, but Brother Hu Xi, do you really plan to bring Sister Lin Yan here to eat? It's not cheap. Zhang Su asked.

"I'll think about it again, it's not that I feel sorry for the money, this fish is good, it's just that this iron pot chicken is too strong, and it tastes a little tired, I guess your sister Lin Yan won't like to chew such a strenuous thing." Hu Xi replied thoughtfully.

"I've got a good place to go." Zhang Su was eating sweet and sour fish while selling Guan Zidao.

"Where?" Hu Xi asked.

"Chengxi University Town, there is a boutique restaurant called Da Manxi, there are two compartments, the dishes are not expensive, the portion is not large, the taste is OK, but the dishes are good-looking and high-grade, very suitable for couples or people like Hu Xige who flirt with girls, what to eat is not the key, generally girls will like the romantic and elegant atmosphere inside." Zhang Su introduced.

"I see that you don't usually have any romantic cells, but I didn't expect you to know that kind of place, sullen brother." Hu Xi teased at Zhang Su.

"It's not that I'm going, every time I go on a date with Pu Zitong, Pu Zitong will take me somewhere, I don't like it very much, because I can't eat enough, but Pu Zitong always has a soft spot for there, I think Sister Lin Yan is also a girl, she should like it too." Zhang said.

"Okay, I'll step on it tomorrow, by the way, how are you and Pu Zitong, Pu Zitong told me that you haven't paid attention to her for a long time, do you want to try to find her, apologize, admit your mistakes, and mend the relationship between the two of you." Hu Xi suggested.

"Well, let's put it down, Brother Hu Xi, you can take me back to the company after eating, I want to report to Elder Yan first, and then go to Senior Zhong to ask for a key." Zhang Su rubbed his chin and said.

"Zhong Lao is a strange old man, you have to be a little mentally prepared if you look for him." Hu Xi didn't know what Zhang Su was having, but he still reminded him.

"Hmm." Zhang Su said simply.
