Chapter 130: The Back Kitchen
Wei Xiao kept the body of the sergeant who had blocked the arrow for him, rested on the back of the night lion horse, and returned to the city with him.
Then, he tore down a flaming Zitongguan battle flag, covered it on the body of the sergeant, held it with both hands, sent it to the city, lit it with firewood, and held the highest funeral ceremony for him.
All the soldiers saluted at the flames that rose from the sky above the city.
Watching the departure of a heroic soul.
When Wei Xiao pushed open the gate of the city mansion with a heavy heart, he cautiously glanced into the hall.
The hall was unusually quiet, only a plate of steamed osmanthus glutinous rice cake was placed on the table, it had already cooled, condensed into translucent pastry, sprinkled with sun-dried osmanthus petals, it looked like jade agar in the heavenly realm.
Wei Xiao walked to the table, picked up a piece of pastry with his fingers, put it in his mouth and chewed it, although the pastry was cold, he felt that it was more delicious than anything, eating and eating, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
It's just that Bai Qianyu is not in the hall, nor in other rooms, the front hall is quiet, even the clover who has been noisy and shouting to eat glutinous rice cakes is not there.
Wei Xiao's heart suddenly moved, remembering that at this time, maybe they were both in the back kitchen, he hurriedly quickened his steps, walked through the front hall, and went straight to the back kitchen.
Sure enough, there was the sound of chopping vegetables on the cutting board, the sound of water running in the iron pot, and the sound of clover chirping: "Oh, I'm afraid of spicy, little white girl, can you put less chili peppers...... followed by an uproar, a handful of things spilled into the pot, clover protested loudly: "I said I don't like to eat chili peppers, why do you put so much?"
followed by the sound of the shovel turning in the pot, Bai Qianyu said mercilessly: "Anyway, no one will eat it, what's the difference between putting more and putting less?" followed by a bang, another handful of things spilled down, and Clover shouted distressedly: "Are you calling it green pepper fried meat, just call meat fried green pepper, you see, the pot is full of green peppers, green peppers!"
When Wei Xiao walked in, Bai Qianyu was rolling up his sleeves and banging the iron pot with a spatula: "What kind of meat do you eat with a grass, just drink some water!"
The fireworks of this world, the bickering in the room, suddenly made Wei Xiao's tired heart when he came back from the battlefield feel unusually warm, and for a moment, he even felt that those people who were running around the world, fighting to the death, were not as important as all this in front of him! He only felt a warmth in his heart.
"I eat meat!" He suddenly grabbed a few steps in front of the iron pot, stretched out his nose and sniffed: "It's so fragrant! It just so happens that I'm hungry too!"
Wei Xiao picked up a pair of chopsticks, and just picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks, and before it was brought to his mouth, he was slapped off by Bai Qianyu: "Isn't someone who doesn't eat anything? What kind of meat do you eat?"
She snatched the chopsticks from Wei Xiao's hand, and her quiet and elegant face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost: "If you don't eat it, you won't say it, and you lied to people that you want to eat, and when I hurriedly made it, he was good, everyone was gone, and I waited all night!"
She threw her chopsticks on the stove, picked up the kitchen knife again, and cut the carrots on the cutting board vigorously.
Wei Xiao was stunned, and the clover had already slipped over quietly, and whispered in his ear: "Since the little white girl happily made an osmanthus glutinous rice cake for you, and found that you were gone, she has always been this ice chip face, look at her now, I can't wait to use you as a radish and cut into shreds!"
As he was talking, Bai Qianyu suddenly slipped his hand and threw away the kitchen knife, "ouch" screamed, Wei Xiao hurriedly grabbed her bleeding finger, put it in her mouth and sucked it gently, and blew it on her again.
"Does it still hurt?" he looked at her, guilt in his heart.
In the blue eyes, the eyes were as clear as a child, and the spark in Bai Qianyu's heart was like encountering water, and the sound of "whoop" was gone, and he said "You!" He lowered his head, withdrew his fingers, and twisted the corners of his clothes with both hands.
"I'm sorry," Wei Xiao said to her very sincerely: "I promise, I won't lie to you in the future!"
He held out three fingers: "I swear!"
Bai Qianyu couldn't help but laugh out loud, and after laughing, he said with a straight face: "You won't be allowed to do this in the future, do you know that the taste of being deceived and making people wait is really uncomfortable," her eyes turned red: "You left without saying hello, which made me worry for a night, fidgeting all night, and never closing my eyes, you obviously ...... You're obviously still so badly injured! Also, I see that you've been worried and anxious about the war these days, and you have eaten very little every meal, so you deliberately add more chili peppers to your dishes to give you an appetizer......
"Qianyu......" Wei Xiao felt that her throat seemed to be blocked by something: "I didn't know that you were so worried about me, I ...... I was wrong......"
He stretched out a hand and wanted to pull Bai Qianyu's hand, but he was pushed hard by Bai Qianyu coldly, and immediately felt as if his whole body was falling apart, and he staggered back a step, and the wound was hot and painful.
"You...... Are you injured again?" Bai Qianyu didn't expect him to be more seriously injured this time, and he was distressed, so he hurriedly supported him, and together with Clover, sent Wei Xiao back to the room to rest.
On this day, even if Wei Xiao was lying on the bed, several groups of subordinates came over, some asked about guarding the city, some came to visit him for his injuries, and when the last escort came to see him, Wei Xiao's face was a little tired, but he still cheered up and said: "You arrange some people to let those people in the city evacuate." ”
Guan Hu was taken aback and said: "Now that the general has taken the initiative to raid, he has won both battles, and the enemy has injured more than 10,000 people, the morale of our army is very high, and there is great hope for defending the city, but why do you want the people to evacuate?"
Wei Xiao sighed: "You only see that right now, as a general of the Heavenly Rule, I have calculated more than ten steps in the future, and I can't say it clearly now, but in the future, you will naturally understand!"
Guan Gu is now convinced of Wei Xiao's plan, although he doesn't know the secret, he answered immediately, greeted Wei Xiao's injury again, and then retreated and started to do it.
Wei Xiao watched the background of the guard leave, Fang Zi breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to lie down and rest for a while, but when he heard the sound of footsteps at the door, a person stepped in from outside the door with a calm face and cold eyebrows.
Wei Xiao didn't need to look to know that the general of Wulie and the general of the general's family came again.
It's just that this time, the commander of Lou Da seems to have learned to be obedient, he put one hand behind his back, Shi Shiran walked to Wei Xiao's bed, moved a chair by himself, sat down, and then looked at Wei Xiao: "Hurt, better?"
Wei Xiao nodded: "Well, it's better." ”
"How many wounds?" Lou Fu asked again.
"Thirty or forty," Wei Xiao replied, "there are more than a dozen in the chest, and twenty or thirty in the back, and the most serious shot pierced the major artery in the back of my neck, and if it is half a centimeter deep, I am afraid that I will pass out." ”
Bai Qianyu listened behind the curtain, only to feel his heart skip a beat, he couldn't imagine that Wei Xiao was born and died, he was so seriously injured, but when he was in front of him, he didn't mention a word, thinking about his attitude towards him just now, it was too cruel?
Clover also lay behind the curtain with her, and whispered, "Do you regret it now?"
"Regret what?" Bai Qianyu said.
Clover grinned, "I regret that I should have been kind to him just now!"
Bai Qianyu was told the central thing by it, and his face turned red.
Clover leaned a little closer, and whispered in her ear: "Look at Wei Xiao, a martial god general in the dignified heavenly realm, you have been forced by you to learn to please women,—— all his actions just now are to please you!" sighed: "Alas, women, alas, are not satisfied." ”
Bai Qianyu bit his lip: "Okay, okay, I'll be kind to him in the future." ”
An inexplicable warmth rose in my heart.
One person and one grass together, hiding behind the curtain, seeing that Lou was annoying and asked these two sentences, the two big men were silent, and the atmosphere was slightly embarrassing.
After a while, I saw Lou Fu stretch out a hand hidden behind him, clenched his hand into a fist, wrapped a new thing, and stretched it out in front of Wei Xiao: "This, for you." ”
His palm opened, and in the palm of his hand was a small white jade box.
"Well, this Qingyuzhi spirit ointment is my family's ancestral healing elixir, which has an excellent effect on treating muscle and bone injuries and invigorating blood and muscles. Lou annoyed.
Wei Xiao knew that the three generations of his family were all military generals, and this ancestral wound medicine naturally had an extraordinary curative effect, so he took it with a smile at the moment.
"That ......" Lou moved his lips and muttered, "Tonight, how about I fight for the general tonight?"
"What if I still don't agree?" Wei Xiao turned the white jade box in his hand without raising his head.
Lou Fu was anxious all of a sudden, jumped up from the chair, and finally broke out the anger that had been pressed for a long time, pointed at Wei Xiao's nose and said: "His grandmother's Wei Xiao, you have been playing for two nights in a row, but you still don't let Lao Tzu move his hands and feet, you are, you are ......" He thought for a long time, and held back a word from his mouth: "Suppress above!"
Wei Xiao said slowly: "Don't forget, three conditions!"
"Go to his grandmother's three conditions!" Lou was annoyed, raised his feet and walked outside: "Tonight, if you let me fight, you have to fight, and if you don't let me fight, you have to fight!"
Bai Qianyu saw it behind the curtain and couldn't help but snicker: "This building is annoying, and he is also an interesting person!"
Clover said: "I'm fine to wander around the barracks, have you heard that this General Lou has recently earned a nickname?"
Bai Qianyu said: "What nickname?"
Clover cleared her throat and said solemnly: "Sapoo plays General Lai Lou." ”
Bai Qianyu thought about Lou's annoying appearance, and couldn't help but smile: "This nickname is very appropriate for him." ”
"Come back!" Wei Xiao shouted fiercely when Lou Fu was about to step out of the door with one foot.
Lou Fu's feet immediately retracted, turned around, and looked at Wei Xiao expectantly.
"Let you fight tomorrow!" Wei Xiao threw down a sentence.
Lou Fu's eyes lit up, and then dimmed again: "Why don't you let me play tonight?"
"Not tonight. Wei Xiao said angrily.
"Why?" Lou Fu's eyes widened: "Tongguan Iron Cavalry has won two games in a row, killing more than 10,000 enemies, and the brothers are in high morale, all of them are gearing up, preparing to raid the enemy camp again tonight!"
"What is a surprise attack? Surprise attack, attack it unprepared," Wei Xiao said: "The enemy army has been harassed by our army for two consecutive nights, tonight must be strictly guarded, arrange for the guards to stay all night, if I guess correctly, that Murong General's order to the whole army tonight must be: 'Lie down and wait for the day'!"
"Then ......" Lou Fu scratched the back of his head: "Aren't you going to let those enemy soldiers have a good night's rest tonight?"
"Have a good rest?" Wei Xiao looked at him: "If you were them, you don't know if we will send troops tonight, or not, can you rest well?" Even if you dare to bet, with Murong Chui's rough and fine style, he will definitely not dare to bet. ”
Lou Fu suddenly realized when he heard this, and he couldn't help but bring a smile on his face.
Wei Xiao said: "So the enemy army has not rested well for three consecutive nights, it is the tired soldiers, I will order you to fight again tomorrow, wouldn't it be possible to hit with one blow?"
Lou Fuxi raised his eyebrows, clapped his hands and said: "Okay, good, tomorrow I will definitely go all out to fight and slash Murong Trai's guy under the horse!"
Wei Xiao shook his head: "Tomorrow in the battle, you can only win, not lose!"
"Why ?......" Lou was taken aback.
