I looked closely for a while, and saw that there were quite a few guards in the compound, most of whom were already lined up to welcome visitors. The rest are either guarding the various gates or patrolling around in squads.

At this time, a hearty laughter came, "General Tie has come to our country, and he has lost his welcome, so take care of him!" ”

Listen to the talk, the person who spoke just now should be the king of the Furong country, and the iron general, I guess is the leading rhinoceros rider.

"We were just outside the city gates. I met a strange-looking beast, which at first glance looked a bit like a cow, but it was full of ghosts, and if I hadn't been in a hurry to come in and meet him, I would have taken it in, it was really rare! "Listen to the voice that spoke, it was indeed the leader.

"Oh? And this kind of thing? Don't worry, General Tie, maybe that beast is destined for you, and you will see it again in the future. ”

Listening to the strange cow that the iron general coveted me so much, I still felt a little happy in my heart, just like others praised their own children for being good. He also said that he wanted to tame the strange cow, and you must know that the strange cow is very loyal to me. Even if he encounters the strange cow again, he won't tame it.

After a while, the Hibiscus King had already invited the Iron General and the rhinoceros riders into the main hall, and Ling Xiao and I followed the infantry around the back of the hall.

I wanted to take a look at the king's appearance, but there were too many people in front of me to block it, and I couldn't see it at all, so I had to find a way to slip away first.

"Fourth brother, seeing that the courtyard is not, let's find a way to sneak in." Ling Xiao lowered his voice, and he didn't dare to twist his neck, only his eyes rolled.

I turned my head slightly in the direction of Ling Xiao. The small courtyard that Ling Xiao said was on our right, and there were almost no guards there.

The two of us exchanged glances, gradually slowed down, and when the line turned to the right, we happened to pass the gate of the small courtyard, and we stepped back and got in.

It was a small courtyard house, surrounded by several rooms, and the courtyard was empty, and when we heard the sound of neat footsteps outside the courtyard, we hurried into the nearest room.

When we entered the house, we were like thieves. Listening carefully to the footsteps outside getting farther and farther, it is estimated that it is only a group of patrolling guards passing by, and the hanging heart is finally relaxed.

As soon as I entered the room, I smelled the smell of sweat, and on one side of the wall was a large bunk, with a few light armor hanging from the shelves next to it, and kettles and cups stacked in a mess, and I guessed that this was where the guards of the house lived.

Now everyone is busy greeting the visitors, and no one will stay in their own room.

Ling Xiao and I looked at those armors, and together with that, we decided to pretend to be from the Furong Kingdom, so that we would have the opportunity to get close to the king.

We quickly took off our clothes and put on some of the stinking light armors. I stuffed my changed clothes into the beams of the house, and if I didn't look closely, I wouldn't notice it.

After changing our clothes, we hid in the courtyard, and when we heard another patrol approach, we hurried out of the courtyard, intending to go back to the hall and have a look.

But as soon as we stepped out of the hospital door, we were stopped by a voice.

"You two, what are you doing sneaking around?"

I suddenly tightened the chrysanthemum, secretly screaming bad luck, the man walked towards us, and we quickly bowed our heads, "My lord, we patrol, patrol." ”

While speaking, I also looked up and secretly glanced at it, and found that this person was dressed in a robe and armor, very different from ordinary guards, probably a captain, and said that he was really careless.

"Why haven't I seen you?"

"We're new here." Ling Xiao hurriedly replied.

"No wonder you're so stunned, there are no rules, come with me."

I breathed a sigh of relief, but luckily there was no goof, and we hurried after the man's ass, and he arranged for us to stand guard at the small gate on the west side of the compound, and the great hall where the king and the iron general were should be not far in front of us.

But there was a bunch of rhinoceros butts facing us, and the rhino riders left their mounts here. These butts block our view so tightly that there is no one in the middle of the yard who can't see it.

Ling Xiao and I mustered up the courage, took advantage of the fact that there was no one behind us, pretended to be patrolling, and approached the direction of the main hall little by little, we must see the appearance of the king, otherwise how to assassinate him. Hugh Ya Changba.

"Eh, you two, where are you going?"

As soon as we rounded the rhinoceros herd and approached the cloister, we were stopped again, and countless grass and mud horses galloped past in my heart, scolding why I was carrying it so much today.

"You two inferior pawns really dare to run anywhere, is that where you should go?" This voice was soft, obviously not the person just now.

Ling Xiao and I couldn't help it, so we quickly retracted the leg that stepped out, stepped aside and stood with our heads bowed, now none of us dared to offend, for fear of being too eye-catching and revealing some flaws.

"No rules! You're new here, aren't you? Don't hang around here, come to the back kitchen to help, there are too many distinguished guests here today, and the back kitchen is short of manpower. The person who spoke in front of him was not a guard at first glance, and he raised his orchid fingers when he spoke, and he looked like a eunuch.

I didn't think we were going to be caught in the kitchen when we first arrived, how could we see the king!

I followed behind the man, with a bitter look on his face, Ling Xiao walked beside me, stabbed me in the arm, and said to me in a very low voice: "Fourth brother, I don't think this is necessarily a good thing, maybe we can find out something about the king, it's much better than taking the risk of checking it ourselves." ”

It made sense to me that if we continued to pretend to be guards, in case we were suspicious, we might as well come to the back kitchen, where there must be so many people and no one would care about us.

And when it comes to cooking, I'm certainly no worse than the chefs here, and when the time comes, I might be able to come up with something to say.

"What are you two muttering! Hurry up! "The eunuch urged us.

Turning left and right, we were taken to a compound, the yard was smoky and lively, and it seemed to be the back kitchen.

At this time, a big bald head came out of the room, this man had big shoulders and a round waist, and there was a smell of oil smoke all over his body, he must be a chef in charge.

"You, bring me two buckets of water." He pointed at Ling Xiao, who was also clever, and quickly picked up the bucket to fetch water, walked halfway and turned back, "My lord, where is the well?" I'm new here. ”

The cook waved his hand and pointed impatiently into the distance, and Ling Xiao hurriedly ran over.

"You, come into the house and give me a hand."

I nodded and went into the kitchen, to say that I had also been a cook, and these hand-off jobs were not a problem at all.

The cook was very happy to see me, and when he saw my knife work, he was already a little shocked.

"Yes, you can cook? What is your name? ”

"Go back to your lord, I will do some, my name is Xiaohu."

"Xiaohu, don't be that low-class soldier, I'll talk to the manager later, how about transferring you to the kitchen?"

I was hesitating when Ling Xiao came in with a bucket of water just in time to hear, "My lord! I'm coming too! ”

The cook saw that we were all very clever, and as soon as he was happy, he agreed. As soon as I looked at Ling Xiao's expression, I probably knew what he was thinking, and it was good to think that it would be good to stay in the back kitchen, and it would be very convenient if I wanted to poison or something.

The cook began to cook, and I looked at the plate of black things he had just made for a long time, and asked him what the name of the dish was.

"This is called Dongpo meat, I haven't eaten it, I look like a starving ghost."

I didn't know what to say for a while, and I was embarrassed to laugh at other people's cooking skills, and the Dongpo meat had been served out while I spoke.

After a while, the eunuch who brought us over just now came back angrily, threw the plate of Dongpo meat on the ground, and scolded all the people in the back kitchen.

"Hurry up and make another one, if it still happens like this, just wait for death!"

After the eunuch left, the cook felt ashamed, and also showed an embarrassed expression, it is estimated that his cooking skills are really not good.

I patted my chest and said to the cook, "Brother cook, leave it to me!" ”

The cook gave me the stove, and when I put the colorful and fragrant Dongpo meat on the plate, he was dumbfounded, and Ling Xiao also gave me a thumbs up.

Dongpo meat was placed on the serving table, waiting for someone to come and take it away, and the cook admired me and asked me to quickly teach him a few more dishes, and as soon as I was happy, I taught him a few more tricks.

When the cook put another plate of my freshly made dish on the table, he suddenly shouted, "Who ate Lao Tzu's Dongpo meat?" ”
