Expedition auspicious time

The black bull cleared his throat and said insinuatingly, "Gotcha! Since you and I have sat down for dinner with my brother, my brother promises to take good care of you! If anyone dares to stumble, brother, I will not spare him! ”

Black Bull's words are obviously for Alai, but he is actually warning the sixth master, although Alai and the divine medicine woman follow, but they can't secretly stumble, otherwise they will be against us!

The sixth master's face was cloudy and uncertain for a while, before the change, he would definitely not take the words of the black bull to heart, but now, Gao Moli and I can actually break through his ecstasy array, and find the place where he used to hold the sheepskin map, which makes him look at our forces with admiration. In addition, Gu Yixin and I are familiar with each other, and he is even more jealous of our background.

The sixth master has accepted our participation in this operation from the heart, and in a short period of time, he should not act rashly again. At this moment, he listened to the words of the black bull, the muscles on his face twitched a few times, he forced out a smile, and replied politely: "Everyone in the same boat is a friend, and no one will be unfavorable to their allies." ”

Alai didn't understand the deep meaning of the black bull's words, he agreed, looked at the refreshments on the table, and pouted: "I'm hungry, why don't you serve the food......"

Before Alai finished speaking, she suddenly saw the medicine woman staring at her, hurriedly shut up, and obediently sat down in a chair and stopped talking.

The sixth master whispered to Gu Yixin for instructions, stood up, and said to the guests who came to participate in the birthday banquet: "Thank you friends for coming to participate in the birthday banquet of the old man, the old man is very grateful!" This year is the year of the sixtieth year, and the health is getting worse, but there is a long-cherished wish that has not been fulfilled, and everyone here must know what it is. With the favor of God, I met several of the best among them. ”

As he spoke, the sixth master arched his hand to the people at our table, and continued to say to the guests: "Because of the special status of the distinguished guests, I will not introduce them one by one. Wait until the day of the return of old age, and then drink it with all friends! Tonight, I hope you all have fun! ”

As soon as the sixth master's words fell, the crowd resounded with applause, and it felt like those who wanted to listen to the singing in the opera garden, and ushered in a full house of applause.

The housekeeper Miao Yiding waited for the crowd to be sparse, and shouted at the door at the top of his voice: "Banquet!" ”

All the guests couldn't help but cast their eyes on the door of Cuihua Xuan, looking forward to it.

The black bull leaned forward and said to me through Gao Moli: "How is it?" Lao Su, did you open your eyes? It's just this pomp, it's almost the same as a palace banquet! ”

While speaking, two rows of women wearing Qing palace costumes walked in from both sides of the door with trays, these women were like palace maids, holding their hair in a bun, their steps were light and floating, and they walked like willows in the wind, graceful and graceful. All the women held the tray in their hands, and on the tray were all bright yellow lace plates, which were covered with knock lids. The maid who served the dishes slowly entered, stopped in front of each round table in an orderly manner, put the dishes in her hands on the table, lifted the lid, and introduced the name of each dish.

Before and after, there are twenty or thirty "palace maids" who serve the food alone!

I smiled a little and said to the black bull, "Don't say it, if you knock a hat to me now, I will feel that I am in some kind of palace!" ”

The black cow has a poor mouth: "It's not enough to have a top, at least you have to keep a braid, huh...... Just stay with the Alai girl for so long! ”

The maid brought up a deep-bottomed disc and lifted the lid to reveal the soft-shelled turtle inside. The soft-shelled turtle was different from ordinary soft-shelled turtles, its beak curved downward like a parrot, and its lid was as if it had been plated with gold, shining gold. The palace maid introduced: "This dish is called 'Four Seas Shengping'......"

The black bull glanced at it, and said unintentionally, "Roar! There are still two turtle king bastards floating in this Sihai Shengping soup! ”

I couldn't help but laugh when I heard it, and Gu Yixin was also amused, and smiled brightly.

Alai was puzzled: "Brother Niu, will Wang Ba still lay eggs?" ”

"It is said that it will, but you have to ask the old Ding housekeeper, he must know!" After that, the black cow sandwiched a turtle egg and put it in his small bowl, and ate it to himself.

The sixth master smiled reluctantly and explained: "The four seas are leveled, and they are rich and noble!" ”

While speaking, the palace maid brought another big fish, which weighed four or five catties and was packed on a large plate with bright yellow prints like a boat. The fish is long and flattened on its sides. The head has round scales, and the whole body also has silver dollar-like scales.

I had never seen such a fish before, so I asked curiously, "What kind of fish is this?" ”

Gu Yixin looked at me with the corners of his eyebrows fluttering, and explained: "This is a yellow-lipped fish, which is called a money fish in Fujian and Guangdong." Wenzhou people are called Huanggan, belonging to the totoaba family of bony fishes. It is a rare demersal fish with warm temperate nature in the coastal waters. ”

The black cow chewed the turtle egg, gave Gu Yixin a thumbs up, and said, "It's still Xiao Gu's knowledge!" I've only heard of this kind of money before, but I've never seen it with my own eyes! It is said that this fish is more expensive than gold, and it is now on the verge of extinction, and even the old fishermen in the coastal areas have only seen it more than 50 years ago! The swim bladder of the Golden Fish has a saying that it is "as expensive as gold". A few years ago, someone in Cangnan County, Zhejiang Province caught a six or seven pounds of yellow gan and sold it for more than 100,000 yuan! Let's talk about the four or five catties in front of us, it seems that the sixth master is not only powerful, but also full of sincerity for this trip to the Sand Sea Hades Palace! ”

I couldn't help but swallow my saliva after hearing this, and secretly said in my heart: Damn, a fish is more than 100,000 yuan, and it is a luxury for rich people to eat, and a few chopsticks and meat are worth the salary of front-line archaeologists for two or three months! Eat more in a while!

Gu Yixin is so familiar with this kind of fish that he doesn't eat it at first glance.

The palace maid who served the food put the fish head on the sixth master, and the sixth master hurriedly got up and reprimanded: "Things that don't understand the rules!" This faucet should be facing Miss Gu! ”

The palace maid repeatedly called it wrong, stepped forward again to straighten the plate, and let the big mouth of the money duck face Gu Yixin.

Gu Yixin said lightly: "It doesn't matter where the fish head is heading, I never pay attention to these!" ”

The sixth master sat down again, and said with a smile: "Miss Gu is the leader of this trip to the sand sea, and we are the leader!" This dragon head should deal with Miss Gu! ”

I secretly said in my heart: This old man is really poor! After eating later, as soon as the table turns, the head of the fish has to follow the 360-degree circle.

Many rare dishes were served one after another, each of which was made of rare and precious ingredients, and each dish had a very high name. The black cow was eager to sweep away every dish, but his strength was limited, and as soon as the twenty-four dishes were served, he was already ninety percent full.

The black bull burped and asked, "Sixth Master, when are we leaving?" You give everyone the exact time! ”

The sixth master put down the ceramic wine cup and said slowly: "At eight o'clock tomorrow, the sunrise is a shot, it is the auspicious time to go on the expedition, and we will set it at that time!" ”
