Cheng Dazhi is looking for a place to eat when it is time to eat. This will also allow you to take advantage of the stop to see if anyone is following you.

After walking like this for three or five days, I didn't find anything unusual.

However, Weaver had caught up with him......

After Zhixing caught up with Cheng Dazhi, seeing that he was so good-natured, except for rushing to an open place on a whim, the rest were in a hurry as usual, thinking that he had discovered that someone was following him and deliberately lured the enemy. Therefore, he became more and more cautious and did not dare to follow too closely.

In this way, no matter how cautious Cheng Dazhi is, he can't see the weaving stars that are often hidden alone in the forest and in the crowd.

On the sixth day, when I arrived at the Tongsheng Inn for the temporary Tibetans, I always felt that the trip was too smooth, but it was strange. Therefore, when I passed the entrance of the store, I did not enter, but went to the inn on the side to stay.

Zhixing followed Cheng Dazhi all the way, he was exhausted, thinking that he was almost in Sanhuai, could it be that Cheng Dazhi could still hide people in Sanhuai? Why don't you stay away a little bit? So counting it, Cheng Dazhi received someone, it should be a matter of the next day or two.

If you follow it any further, you will have to fold on the road. Now that we know the general direction of Cheng Dazhi's Tibetans, it is better to wait on the necessary way back to Beijing in this direction. Once Cheng Dazhi caught someone and came back, she just happened to cut off her beard.

Otherwise, even if she chases down to the place where she finally hides, she may not be Cheng Dazhi's opponent, and there must be other people watching over there, what she has to face is not one against one, but with one against two, or one against three, or with four enemies. Therefore, the most important thing at this time is to recharge your energy and wait for the opportunity to move.

Orishi turned back and waited at Songyo Station, the only way back to Kyoto Castle from this direction.

There is a small noodle restaurant near Songyangyi, which is located in an open area, with mountains behind it, roads on the left and right, and an open field in front. Business travelers are willing to rest here. First, you can take a break, and second, it is empty, so that you can see if there is any danger lurking around you and solve it as soon as possible.

Zhixing felt that Cheng Dazhi and they brought people back, and they would definitely stay here, just like when he went, he stayed here to eat noodles for a long time.

Judging by the current forces of both sides, she can only outwit and not be able to defeat the enemy. The other party is in the open, and the more people the better, without worrying about being exposed. But she was in the shadows, but it was different. Tracking all the way, it is impossible for her to bring rescuers, wouldn't that be equivalent to sending herself to the door to be exposed? Now that we have followed this far, it is unlikely that we can send rescuers to us.

Therefore, it is necessary to put a lot of effort into this noodle restaurant.

Cheng Dazhi wandered around the city for a day, and when he saw that there were no suspicious people, and he didn't want to delay too long, he went to the Tongsheng Inn, took two craftsmen, and the two brothers in charge of guarding them, and went back to Kyoto City together.

On the road, he is still very cautious. This journey has been so smooth that it is really unsettling. Therefore, when he arrived at Songyang Station, he knew that this was the only way to return to Kyoto City, and whether it was him, or the person who might have secretly and plotted, he had to pass through here.

They are in the light, and the other that may be there is in the dark. In normal times, it is not easy to catch the other party, but in this Songyang Station, the difference between the light and the dark is not so obvious. The small noodle restaurant near Songyangyi is located in an open area, and you can sit by the window and look around, and you can see the surrounding situation.

Why don't you take a break here?

A group of five people entered the noodle restaurant, and because it was morning, there were not many people passing by, so it was convenient to pick up a place by the window and sit down.

"Boss......" Cheng Dazhi shouted, "Five bowls of oily noodles." Served with two catties of beef in sauce and a pot of hot wine. ”

"Hey, come on......" the old man called out enthusiastically.

But the man in the kitchen, did not appear.

Cheng Dazhi thought he was busy, but he didn't pay attention to it.

When I came, I chatted with the shopkeeper, and learned that the shop was run by an old man and her granddaughter, and sometimes the old man's son, who worked as a groom at the inn, would come back to help. But now it's early in the morning, his son is busy, and it is estimated that the youngest granddaughter has not gotten up yet, and she can't be busy alone.

In the kitchen, the old man looked at a woman dressed as a country girl, her legs trembling. A trembling voice asked, "Woman, look...... I'm okay, right? ”

Weaving Star nodded and said in a deep voice, "Go cook for them." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." The old man answered, took the sauce beef out, waited for a while to cut it, and went to boil water to make noodles first.

"Oops...... a craftsman covered his stomach and said, "I don't feel well in my stomach...... Master, let's have a bowl of clear noodle soup, right? ”

As he spoke, he said "oops" again, got up with his stomach covered, pulled his neck and shouted, "Boss...... Where's the hut? ”

"It's next to the stable outside", Cheng Dazhi said, "Xiao Qi, you take him there." Did you see it when you were tethered? ”

"Okay, Brother Dazhi." Xiao Qi responded, punched the craftsman in the stomach, and said with a smile: "I said yesterday that I wouldn't let you eat so much meat, and I didn't eat this meal, look at your little luck!" ”

"Oh, sir, I'm really hungry...... You see that we are bumpy on horseback along the way, the old man's body is okay, how can we stand our body!"

Cheng Dazhi smiled, listening to the sound of a fire boiling water in the kitchen, he was afraid that the old man would not hear his shout, so he got up and went to the kitchen to tell.

"Boss, change a bowl of clear noodle soup. We have a guy with an upset stomach. ”

"Hey, yes, yes." The boss answered, but he didn't look back.

"Yo, where is my little granddaughter today?" Cheng Dazhi saw a slender girl wearing a floral dress standing next to the old man. When the curtain was lifted, the girl was picking up a piece of sauced beef to be sliced, and looking at it from behind, it had a different flavor.

"Ah, here it is." The old man smiled and replied.

The girl turned around, her face was white and delicate, and she smiled shyly: "Guest officer, go and wait, it will be good to meet for a while." ”

"Hey." Cheng Dazhi was a little distracted by this shy smile, looked at the girl directly, and responded in a daze.

The girl was even more embarrassed, smiled and lowered her head, turned around and continued to cut the beef.

Cheng Dazhi looked at the girl's slender and white fingers like green onions, and his heart was even more fluttering. The piece of sauced beef was in her hand, and at this time it seemed to have been dyed with the body fragrance of a girl like a flower petal......

The girl ignored Cheng Dazhi's gaze and continued to cut beef.

Cheng Dazhi looked at this slender back in a trance for a long time, suddenly realized his faux pas, and hurriedly withdrew his gaze. smiled: "Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, the girl will cut slowly, but don't cut her hands." ”

"Yo!" The girl put down the kitchen knife in her hand, covered her chest and turned around, and said in shock: "Why is the guest officer still here!" ”

Cheng Dazhi, an eight-foot-tall strong man, scratched his head embarrassedly at this time: "I smell this...... This...... The smell of beef is fragrant, I want to smell it for a while, hehe......"

As he spoke, he pointed to the beef and looked at it greedily.

"Don't worry, guest officer, it'll be cut later. After cutting it, it will be served to the guest officer first. The girl turned around and picked up the kitchen knife again.

"Don't worry, don't worry......" Cheng Dazhi said this, and went back to the table in a bit of a panic.

This peasant girl is dressed in a small floral cloth, but it looks so good! In the city of Kyoto, you can't see such a simple woman.

After Cheng Dazhi left, the girl put down the kitchen knife in her hand and continued to look at the old man.

Seeing that the old man was below, he said, "You go and cut the beef, and I'll come and see the noodles." ”

It's not that difficult to just look at the pot without sticking to the face. But cutting beef is a test of knife skills, he usually only cuts people, where will he cut meat? When the beef is served later, don't show the filling.

The old man trembled with fright, so he put down the spoon that was stirring in the pot and went to the cutting board to cut the beef.

After a while, the meat was cut, and Weaving Star threw the rice spoon to the old man. In order to prevent the stuffing from being exposed, he said that he would serve them beef first, and naturally he would serve it to them.

But instead of serving all the cut beef, he only served more than half of the old man's cut.

"A few guest officers, the beef is cut. I'll go and give you hot wine. The girl placed a large plate of sliced beef in sauce on the table.

Seeing the girl's slender white fingers, Cheng Dazhi was attracted again.

So much so that when the girl put down the plate and pulled her hand away, his eyes were still on the girl's hand.

However, it was suddenly a pang in my heart!

But there was no show on his face, just hurriedly withdrew his gaze, as if he realized that he was inappropriate.

After the girl left, Cheng Dazhi's eyes fell on this plate of beef. Seeing that the texture of this beef was just right, I carefully recalled what I had just seen at the kitchen door...... If she remembers correctly, when the girl cut the meat, she actually cut it along the lines of the beef!

But anyone who has opened a restaurant to sell beef all year round knows that the beef can't be cut along the lines, and the cut beef is not strong.

In addition, the girl's index finger, middle finger, and thumb had a few calluses, and he felt even more strange.

A girl in the village, even if she cuts vegetables with a knife all year round, will not have such calluses, right? When she was younger, her grandfather was not necessarily willing to let her use a knife, and it was estimated that most of them were just serving tea and water to the guests.

If you say that you are a veteran with a knife, how can you cut the wrong beef? If it's not for old hands, then what's the matter with the calluses on your hands?

The two are self-contradictory.

The calluses on the girl's hands looked like they were only in the hands of people who practiced martial arts and swords.

Cheng Dazhi looked at the calluses on his right hand, and then remembered the girl's slender and upright figure and handsome face...... I feel that it is extremely strange.

"Brother Dazhi, the sauce beef here is very authentic......"
