Chapter 173: The Secret of the Treasure
Pei Huai didn't need to say anything, when he was marching and fighting in the past, he basically ate and lived with the soldiers, and the things he ate were not much better than this, but there was still food in the situation, if there was not enough food during the war, these things could not be eaten.
Besides, he was not born rich and noble, and life was not a smooth life, and what he experienced was also full of tribulations, what kind of suffering, what kind of suffering, he did not experience?
It's just that he doesn't want to mention it anymore.
What his identity was in the past has nothing to do with him now.
"This pickle is still quite delicious, did you make it yourself?" Xu Xi drank porridge and asked.
"Yes, if you make it yourself, you will have such a little craftsmanship when you march and fight." Wei Shuo walked over and replied.
At this moment, he also handed one of the two bowls of white porridge and pickles in his hand to Gu Chaoci, who was sitting next to Xu Xi, and he also sat down next to Gu Chaoci and began to eat.
"This pickle tastes really good, next time teach me how to make it." After Xu Xi took a bite, he opened his mouth and said to Wei Shuo.
"Speaking of the way this pickle is made, Miss Xu, you should ask the adults to be right." Wei Shuo said.
"Huh?" Xu Xi looked at Pei Huai on the side suspiciously, and asked, "Could it be that the way to make this pickle is something you researched and developed?" Otherwise, Wei Shuo wouldn't have let her ask Pei Huai, the national teacher who ate silently.
Thinking that Pei Huai had also marched and fought with Wei Shuo before, so in this way, it is very likely that this pickle was made by Pei Huai, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was very reliable, and now it was up to Pei Huai to say what the correct answer was.
It's just that if that's the case, it's really a little too rebellious, right?
"Well, I made it at my leisure." Pei Huai replied simply and clearly, as if it was a very trivial matter, which made Xu Xi want to ask: In addition to the English words you don't know, is there anything else you can't do?
Even the taste of pickles can be invented, and it is so delicious, is it true that Pei Huai was actually a chef in the past?
However, didn't you say that the gentleman was far away from cooking? It's hard to imagine the scene where Pei Huai rolled up his sleeves and circled around the stove.
I guess, it's very spicy, right?
"Actually, the reason why this pickle was made was forced by things." Seeing that Pei Huai was reluctant to say anything, Wei Shuo opened his mouth and said what the production process of this pickle was, "At that time, the food was basically finished, but the backup had not yet kept up.
Seeing that the food is about to bottom out, we can only find some wild vegetables or something to eat, as long as we can fill our stomachs, then what can't we eat?
After all, if you don't have enough to eat, where will you have the strength to march and fight?
It's just that some of these things are too hard to swallow, so in order to improve the taste, the adults didn't close their eyes all night, and finally developed such delicious wild vegetables. It was because of this that we supported the arrival of backup, and in the end, we won.
Later, we all thought it tasted good, so we used it to make pickles. ”
This story sounds a bit of a fantasy, but that's the way it is, so in fact, Pei Huai didn't really pay attention to that battle, right?
Otherwise, you can still find time to study how to make this dish delicious in this way?
But no matter what, at that time, it must have been forced by the situation to do so.
"It's really hard to imagine that under such circumstances, the National Teacher can still have such the ability to study such pickles, just to be able to make the soldiers eat a little more, so that they will not lose their lives on the battlefield, such a person who can still have such thoughts under pressure, I'm afraid that the National Teacher is the only one, right?"
After listening to this story, Gu Chaoci couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
But it's true, if he couldn't withstand this pressure and couldn't let the soldiers eat more, maybe they would have lost that battle, although the backup behind was arriving, but if the soldiers were already hungry before, this battle would actually be very difficult.
Thinking about it like this, it can only explain one point, that is, when thinking about Pei Huai, you can't think about it as a normal person, but you should think backwards.
Who made him always be able to do such an unbelievable act?
If this were a different person, it was estimated that he would have to starve to death with the soldiers.
What else is there to talk about winning the war?
Xu Xi stretched out his hand and covered his big hand, but he was a little distressed, feeling sorry for Pei Huai, who had to withstand the pressure in such a situation.
"It's okay, it's all in the past." Pei Huai smiled and said comfortingly. It is precisely because of such understatement that Xu Xi is even more sad.
"No matter what happens in the future, I will be by your side." Xu Xi said softly.
"I know." Pei Huai smiled confidently and said.
When these words came out, Xu Xi also smiled at him, and such a smile suddenly made everything around him seem to lose color, which made people fascinated.
After dinner, the dishes and chopsticks were taken away by Gu Chaoci and Wei Shuo, and before the fire, there were only Pei Huai and Xie left.
She stretched out her hand, grabbed his arm slightly, rested her head on his shoulder, looked at the fire in front of her, and quietly enjoyed the time between the two of them.
Gu Chaoci originally wanted to go over, but was pulled by Wei Shuo, after all, there is such a good two-person world over there, it is better for them not to go over and disturb, in fact, they can also sit together alone and live a two-person world that belongs to them, of course, this is what Wei Shuo thinks, as for what Gu Chaoci thinks, this is really not known.
But one thing is certain, Gu Chaoci did not reject Wei Shuo.
"The relationship between Xu Xi and the National Teacher is really good." Gu Chaoci and Wei Shuo sat in front of another fire, took the time to look over there, and said with a little envy.
"We can do the same." Wei Shuo didn't envy it, because they could actually make other people envy the relationship between them, but Gu Chaoci didn't admit it, nor did he answer him positively. But Wei Shuo, why did he ever give up?
still remembers that year's Shangyuan Festival, on the crowded street, from the first time he saw her, he already knew that his heart had been lost by himself.
Later, the family gave him an engagement and a dowry, but he had not yet seen the other party, in fact, he was repulsed, because he never forgot the shadow he saw under the lanterns that year.
It's just that the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words can be changed? But fortunately, the Miss Gu family who I saw by accident turned out to be her.
Although the age of the two parties is still young, he is willing to wait for the other party to grow up slowly, anyway, she will belong to him sooner or later, he has never doubted this.
"What are you thinking?" Gu Chaoci looked at Wei Shuo and looked at her directly, but he didn't speak, and couldn't help asking.
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about the Shangyuan Festival." Wei Shuo came back to his senses and replied.
"Shangyuan Festival?" Gu Chao couldn't help but reminisce a little, and when he looked at Wei Shuo's current gaze, he instantly recalled what he meant by this so-called Shangyuan Festival.
So, before Wei Shuo could say the next sentence, he said decisively, "Oh, I'm really sleepy, sleep and sleep, I'm going to sleep, well, borrow your shoulder, you won't be stingy and not give it, right?" ”
"Of course not." Wei Shuo replied with a smile, such a smile was full of a touch of doting for her.
Gu Chaoci, who was looking at it, was really a little overwhelmed, so he hurriedly leaned his head on his shoulder and closed his eyes, which could be regarded as isolated from the world.
Seeing this, Wei Shuo didn't say anything, just sat quietly like this, so that she could sleep peacefully. This made Gu Chaoci really relieved.
She knew about his feelings, but she hadn't thought about it yet.
Fortunately, there is still a little distance from the day they get married, so let's wait.
There was nothing to say that night.
The next day, the eyes of the early morning shone lightly, shining on the whole land, everyone woke up from their sleep, and after breakfast, they looked straight at Xu Xi.
"It's already sunny now, it's still early, it's time to open the treasure, right?"
"It's always daylight, isn't it?"
"Let's open the treasure quickly."
Everyone has long been impatient, and now, there must be some reason to prevent this treasure from opening, right?
"Of course." Xu Xi nodded slightly and said, "Then turn it on." ”
Anyway, the secret of this treasure has already been deciphered, and she is really not in a hurry, since these people are so eager to go in and have a look, then she naturally has no reason to stop it.
Therefore, in front of everyone's eyes, Xu Xi also took out the jade piece and put it in the groove between the two doors, and then, the door of the treasure was opened.
The others were already gearing up, and when Xu Xi took the jade piece back into his hand.
The door opened suddenly, and the people who couldn't stop it, where could they take care of other things, they had already rushed up to the gate when Xu Xi, Pei Huai, Wei Shuo and Gu Chaoci entered first, and rushed towards the gate quickly, starting the prelude to the war for the treasure that you are fighting for.
"Whoever grabs this treasure will be theirs."
"That's going to be mine."
"You ..... dreaming"
"Rush ....."
The bustle and shouts at the entrance of the cave really broke the quiet morning all at once, and everyone suddenly crowded into the cave, and the outside was also quiet.
