"Hehe," suddenly the old man laughed, "Old Man Ma, at first I thought that 20,000 yuan really couldn't be collected." But for now, I think it's better for you to give us. This will strengthen our relationship, and no matter how iron the relationship is, it is not as hard as the money relationship of Chiguoguo, right? ”

Lao Ma looked at the two of them and slowly stood up, "Okay, then you have to show some skills to see if you can maintain our relationship." ”

As soon as Lao Ma's words fell, a strong man at the door suddenly rushed towards Lao Gang and grabbed Lao Gang's collar.

I saw that as soon as Lao Gang lowered his head, stood up, snapped, and after the crisp sound, such a strong man fell to the ground with a bang and lost his breath.

"It's okay, I can't die, I'm dizzy." Lao Gang took two steps back.

It was a beautiful right hook that was clean and clean, ducked down, stepped forward, and hit with precision. Lao Gang's boxing has not been practiced in vain, and this punch hit the opponent's chin very resolutely, directly causing the opponent to faint.

If it is about strength, the two Lao Gang are not each other's opponents, once they are caught by the other party, Lao Gang will break his arm without any suspense.

"You two are waste, and you are still known as big tigers and two tigers, I think you are almost the same as big dogs and two dogs. Don't be ashamed, wake up your brother quickly. "The old horse drank to stop the two tigers who were going up to fight hard." From today on, we are a family, and we are all in the same boat through thick and thin. ”

After that, Lao Ma threw 20,000 yuan and 10,000 yuan per person to Lao Gang and the two. Lao Bo pursed his lips and didn't say anything more, looking at this shot, he knew why Lao Yan and his brother broke up before. I haven't learned to behave in the world at all, and I'm not generous enough at all.

"Wait, I'll get some appetizers and come back. Let's have a good chat tonight. As he spoke, he left everyone behind and went out to buy.

After a short time, Lao Bo and Dr. Liu returned to the small courtyard almost front and back. At this time, it was late, and the early winter sky was dark early, especially in Boshan. In this small courtyard under the black mountain ravine, six people opened a table of eight immortals in the Great North House, and arranged the Taishi chair and the old-fashioned three-legged round pestle for the guests and hosts. Everyone gathered around the table, waiting for the old stuffy to be served.

Lao Bo went out this time and bought a table of four or four seats.

The four or four seats at the banquet pay attention to four dried fruits, four fresh fruits, four dim sum, four flat plates, four large pieces, four rows, and four meals. Four dried fruits: pine seeds, cashew nuts, peanuts, pistachios. The four dim sum refers to sago dumplings, white skin crisps, cream pastries, and bean paste rolls; The four fresh fruits are grapes, melons, dates, persimmons, and watermelons; The four flat plates are pine flower chicken shredded frozen powder, roll tip spelled cherry meat, bergamot meat spelled radish shredded, plate belly spelled with hoof tendons; The four major pieces are three fresh sea cucumber soup (spicy cucumber), pot roasted elbow (four dishes), tofu box (tower shape), sweet and sour carp (stilt tail); The four rows include stir-fried kidney flowers, soft fried pork liver, chicken sauce shrimp, and glazed cavity. In the last four bowls, there are also squid with squid with a dip bottom, braised tile fish, egg buns, and stewed vegetables.

Of course, this is eaten in a restaurant, but at home, the old stuffiness is simplified, although it is simplified, but the main dishes of four flat plates, four large pieces, and four rows of pieces cannot be simplified.

Today, Siping Plate is mainly cold dishes, crispy beef jerky from Qingmeiju, Boshan sausage, boiled skin belly on the street, and sauce meat from Jiangjia Hutong. The four major pieces are simplified into two, the sea cucumber with the bottom and the sweet and sour cocktail carp. The classic stir-fried kidney flower in the four rows remains unchanged, and an improved nine-turn large intestine, Boshan hard fried pork and braised prawns are added.

"I bought sweet and sour carp to make up for the regret of not drinking the hot and sour soup at noon. Boshan has a world-famous dish called smashed fish soup. This smashed fish soup can be smashed with steamed fish and oily fish, but the dish of smashing fish soup is more flavorful with this sweet and sour cocked tail carp. The old man said with a sullen smile.

"To tell you a joke, there is a Boshan man who opened a restaurant in Beijing. One day, a guest came in front of him, and after eating this sweet and sour carp, he said to the waiter, man, smash me a fish soup. When the Boshan people who were busy in the back kitchen heard this, they said, "Yo, this is a native of Zibo." After drinking the fish soup, the guest said again, man, put more pepper and more vinegar, and smash it for me again. When the people of Boshan heard it, yo, it seems that they are fellow villagers in Boshan. Not long after going out, the waiter brought back the remaining fish bones, and the guest said to beat an egg and smash it again. When the Boshan people heard this, they immediately ran out and said, this is my father. After saying this joke, a table of people laughed, and Lao Bo noticed that Lao Ma was really laughing, indicating that he had not heard this joke, and the big tiger and the second tiger laughed more reluctantly, and it seemed that they were locals.

Doctor Liu has been silent, Lao Gang is a very idiot, if you repeat this joke to him 10,000 times, he will still roll with laughter.

"Southerners are taboo four, this is a later thing, and southerners generally do not understand traditional Chinese culture. From the traditional Chinese concept, the number four means auspicious, such as four red and four happy, four flat and eight stable, all directions, and four seasons of wealth, all of which are auspicious meanings. Therefore, four or four seats are the culture of eating. Lao Bo said to Lao Ma.

"Boshan has culture, heritage, and taste." The old horse gave a thumbs up. "When you talk about this four or four seats, I think of the pattern on the horse bell, there are four auspicious beasts, and we used to think that the old brothers and sisters represented the four directions. Lao Liu, hurry up and take out the horse bell. While everyone is not drunk, quickly take it out and take a look, and when you get drunk, don't move. I'm afraid that I will miss it. ”

Dr. Liu turned around, took out a wooden box from his bag, opened the box, and it was indeed a green horse bell, which was 8 cm high and 5 cm in diameter, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and had a beautiful arc at the bottom from the side. The horse bell is seriously rusted, but it can be faintly seen that there are four ribs on the surface, and there are four patterns respectively.

"Back then, we analyzed that these four patterns were the four ancient divine beasts, the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu. In ancient times, the ancients divided the heavens into four palaces, east, west, north and south, which were named after the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu. Xuanwu is the god of tortoise-shaped. I came to Boshan for half a year, and as soon as I came to discover Qinglong Mountain and Baihu Mountain, I immediately had the feeling that the sky was falling. It turned out that Lao Yan had always known that this copper bell concealed the great mystery of Boshan. Lao Ma said that he did not make further progress later, because he could not find the corresponding mountain because of the Suzaku and Xuanwu in the back.

"Is it Phoenix Mountain south of Boshan?" Lao Gang suddenly said, "Isn't the Vermilion Bird a red bird?" The phoenix is also a bird. ”

"Suzaku and Phoenix are not the same thing at all." Lao Bo picked up a piece of crispy beef jerky and stuffed it into his mouth, "The Vermilion Bird is called the Vermilion Bird, and its shape is a bit like a phoenix, but it is the god of the south." Because of its bird-like shape, located in the south, and fire attributes, it becomes a phoenix in computer games. But the Vermilion Bird and the Phoenix are two different creatures, the Phoenix is the king of birds, while the Vermilion Bird is the spirit animal of the sky, which is rarer and more noble than the Phoenix. ”

"Yes, at first, I also thought it was Phoenix Mountain, but then I also rejected this idea like an old man. As for where Xuanwu is, I can't figure it out now. Lao Ma shook his head, "My education level is too low, let me find it myself, but I can't find the way." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have been holding this copper bell all day, and I have been studying it for a long time, but I can't find Suzaku. However, I do have a little bit of experience with Xuanwu. Doctor Liu suddenly spoke, and everyone put down the wine glasses in their hands.

"Xuanwu is also called Xuanming, Wu means black, and Yin means yin. According to legend, the basalt itself is a large turtle in the North Sea, and the tortoise shell is also black. When Dr. Liu said this, he paused deliberately. Did you think of anything? ”

"Black Mountain, the place where we are is called Black Mountain Valley, next to it is the Black Mountain opposite Qinglong Mountain. Black Mountain, the Black Mountain, is the Xuanwu Mountain. The old man suddenly realized.

"Yes, Montenegro is close to the Xiaonu River, this is because it has the property of water. Unfortunately, nearly 100 years ago, the Jiaoji Railway built this steel bridge, which happened to press on its head, and since then there have been accidents near the Black Mountain Valley. Dr. Liu sighed.

"Okay, good, look, it's really a win-win cooperation, we have found three of the four sacred mountains, and if we find the fourth, we will definitely be able to uncover the mystery of the copper bell." The old horse raised his glass and suggested that everyone go one.

"I don't really understand, even if there are four divine beasts in this copper bell, even if you find four divine mountains in Boshan. What does this mean, you are like idiots, you can't even touch a ghost, so you just guess and think. Is there really any treasure? Who said that? Lao Gang suddenly asked a sharp question.

"This matter was said by Lao Yan," Lao Ma said with a smile, "I didn't believe it at first, I just wanted to take the horse bell and leave, at least I can exchange some money for the elderly." But I accidentally found Lao Yan's Boshan County Chronicle, and I know that the copper bell implies the location of Boshan. Half of this is a natural formation, and the other half is a genius who artificially incorporated into the creation of nature. Some kings like to hide national treasures, and they want to keep them for themselves, and this great greed gives future generations unlimited imagination. Only then did I decide to have a showdown with Lao Yan and ask him to allow me to join the gang and search for treasure together. ”

"At that time, I was thinking that I had the skill of robbing tombs, and Lao Yan would definitely not refuse me. I didn't think I'd be reported. Lao Ma looked at Dr. Liu, "Of course, all this is over, let's not mention the unhappy things in the past." ”

"In the future, we must abandon our previous suspicions, forget the previous unpleasantness, and work together to find the Suzaku Mountain as soon as possible. I think that this Suzaku may be the most crucial sacred mountain, and if you find it, you can lock all the directions, and then you can turn things around, as recorded in the chapter of Kanyu in the county annals. Dr. Liu raised the wine glass with his right hand, pinched Lao Ma's right hand with his left hand, and there was a trace of tears in his eyes.

"Well said, I'll go and smash a fish soup right away, put more pepper and vinegar, and beat two eggs!" According to Boshan's rules, whoever wants to leave the table must first kill the cup in front of the door.

"I'll divide up the work, and in addition to looking for Suzaku, we also have to have an in-depth understanding of the other three mountains. You need to act separately, Doctor Liu, you take the big tiger to understand Qinglong Mountain, after all, you have lived here for a long time and are familiar with the local customs. The second tiger and I went to investigate Baihu Mountain, and the second tiger and the big tiger are both from Baihu Mountain. Lao Bo and Lao Gang, you are responsible for exploring Montenegro, how about it? ”

Lao Bo and Lao Gang were a little worried when they heard Lao Ma's words, Montenegro is vicious, they know very well. But it makes sense for Lao Ma to divide it like this, and now their relationship with Lao Ma is as strong as Chiguoguo's money relationship, so the two have to take over this job.
