Chapter 45: Lucia (I)
Although He Dali was agitated with righteous indignation, he didn't want to hurt people's lives, so he took some punches and kicks with his hard skin and thick flesh, and shouted: "Stop!
Those few soldiers fought vigorously and shouted: "After eating Lao Tzu's soul beast, you dare to come again! This time you can catch a ready-made one! What if there is one more accomplice, you can still fight it!"
He vigorously exerted his strength, elbowed one by one, knocked several people to the ground, and said, "Who do you say are the accomplices?"
When those people saw He's fierce and vicious, they said, "Go and call the owner!"
Long Yuandong saw the abnormality and stepped forward and said: "The two of us are from the Xicheng Army, we were just passing by today, and when we saw that there was an injustice, we intervened, why did we become accomplices?"
One of them said hatefully: "That little beggar skinned and ate the soul beast I had domesticated for six years, and I didn't catch it last time, and this time I came to steal it again! Why can't I beat it? I will see it once, and I will fight it once!"
When Long Yuandong heard this, he turned around to catch the little beggar and confront him, but when he saw that the field was empty, the beggar didn't know where he had gone, so he hurriedly said, "Where are the people?"
The men got up, and some said, "You let her go!"
Some said, "Don't let me see her again!"
Others said, "If you hadn't made trouble, would she have been able to escape?"
He Dali knew that he was at a loss, relying on the advantage of force, so he finally talked about it, and finally perfunctory it. Walking on the street, he felt quite disgraced, and the more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, and said: "This beggar is so unrighteous, Lao Tzu stood up for him, and she actually ran away alone! The next time I see him, I must teach him how to be a man!"
He let out his emotions with a long sigh, and suddenly heard the dogs barking behind him, and several vicious dogs chasing a little beggar and galloping wildly.
The beggar looked panicked, and a large piece of his trouser leg was torn off by the dog, revealing his snow-white calves.
He vigorously chivalrous had a seizure, rushed up and kicked a fierce dog, and showed a hoe to scare the rest of the big dogs away.
The beggar shrank in the corner, holding a bun in his hand, and couldn't wait to stuff it into his mouth, muttering, "I'm starving to death!"
He Dali looked at the beggar a little familiar, and suddenly shouted: "You are the beggar just now!"
The beggar swallowed the bun, stretched his neck, and said weakly with a pleading look in his eyes: "I'm too hungry!"
He Dali looked at her pitiful, his heart softened, and he no longer bothered with her about some trivial matters, and said: "Forget it! Seeing that you are hungry like this, I will invite you to eat!"
The beggar said happily: "Talking counts?"
He patted his chest vigorously, and said arrogantly: "When did I say nonsense?"
The beggar quickly stood up and said lightly: "There is a Taifeng restaurant next to the casino in front, and it tastes good." You're going to invite me to eat there!"
Long Yuandong laughed on the side: "This is fresh, to invite a beggar to eat, you have to go to the designated restaurant!"
He Dali saw that although this beggar was thin and weak, he was not short, and he was very happy, laughed, and said, "Lead the way ahead!"
The three of them came to Taifeng Restaurant, and when they took a look, they saw that the furnishings were elegant and spacious. At the moment, I found a place to sit on the second floor, and a small servant came over and asked, "Guest officer, what do you want to eat?"
The beggar said: "I want lotus root tips, stir-fried lotus root slices, crispy fried lotus roots, hot and sour lotus roots, osmanthus glutinous rice roots, lotus root pork rib soup, that's all!"
He Dali's throat shook, just listening to the name of the dish, his stomach was already growling, he couldn't imagine that there were so many delicious things in the world, and said: "Three pots of wine, quick!"
The little guy touched his head and said embarrassedly: "Guest officer, our store is located in a remote area, and it is a cold winter, lotus root is only available in the south, and aquatic products are also produced in summer, please change a few dishes!"
The beggar was embarrassed and said, "Then what kind of dishes do you have, you can serve a few things!"
The little guy said: "We have marinated beef, mutton, horse meat, donkey meat, dog meat, fragrant roast goose, stewed duck, sauce pigeon, fried chicken, roast suckling pig, wine is self-brewed drunken monkey, mud sealed cellar, mellow and attractive!"
He slapped the table vigorously and said, "Serve them all!
The little guy sang a trumpet: "Gotcha!" and went downstairs to shout for food, and soon all kinds of meat were served one after another, although it was not as novel and ingenious as the name of the dish ordered by the beggar, but it was also warm in color and fragrant.
He Dali couldn't bear it anymore, chewed wildly, and ate for a while before asking, "What's your name?"
The beggar said, "Lucia!
He Dali chewed a piece of beef in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Lucia, Lucia, the name is very smooth." ”
Long Yuandong said: "Luxia, I don't hear that your accent is local, how did you come to Eagle's Beak Pass?"
The beggar was stunned and said, "When I was six or seven years old, my family's house and land were occupied, and my parents couldn't reason with it, so they killed someone. My sister and I were playing outside, and when we came back, the wicked man was gone, and I was able to escape. After that, he wandered around. One day I got separated from my sister, and I looked for her everywhere, and before I knew it, many years passed. I came here the other day after following a mercenary team. ”
He vigorously sympathized and said, "It's pitiful, just as pitiful as us." Long Shovel and I, we didn't know who our parents were since we were children, and we were brought up by Master. When I was seven or eight years old, Master was gone. The two of us just ran around in the mountains and forests, and I can't count how many times we survived. ”
"I'm alone, and I'm always being bullied. There are two of you, and it's much better. If I find my sister, it's two people. ”
He vigorously comforted: "Don't worry, I will protect you in the future!
The beggar wiped his mouth and said, "I've finished eating, I'm going to Xiaojie! You eat slowly, wait for me!"
He Dali smiled: "Okay!
The beggar stood up, suddenly slipped forward, He vigorously reached out to hold it, and said, "Be careful!" The beggar smiled sweetly, showing his snow-white teeth, and said, "I'll come back later!"
He drank the wine vigorously, exhaled a long breath, and said, "Happy!"
Long Yuandong tore off a piece of chicken leg*** and said casually: "This little beggar has a problem, can't you see it?"
He Dali was stunned and said, "What's the problem?"
"A little beggar, who has no food or clothing, how can she know the names of so many dishes? And she didn't eat much, so she said she was full!"
He Dali thought for a while and said, "Sure enough, there is a problem, why didn't you say it earlier?"
"I'm not afraid that there is anything wrong with her, can't she still eat us!"
He Dali smiled: "Exactly! Regardless of her, we eat!"
Long and He have a huge stomach, and after eating a table full of dishes, it is not enough, let alone leaving vegetables for Lucia. At that moment, he ordered a few catties of wine and meat, and then he was satisfied, and he crashed downstairs drunk.
A small servant stretched out his hand and stopped: "Guest officer, please settle the bill before leaving!"
He vigorously stretched out his hand, took out it, took it out again, and said embarrassedly: "The money is lost!"
The little guy said loudly: "Do you want to repay the debt?" When the hall was full of diners, dozens of pairs of eyes looked at each other, all with disdain.
