Chapter 232: Manpower

I saw Lu gently rummaging through the huge package on the side, turning out a large wooden bowl, and then turning out a large wooden cylinder, the wooden cylinder stopper was pulled out, and an orange-yellow liquid came out of it, revealing the smell of wine, which turned out to be fruit wine.

She poured the fruit wine into a large wooden bowl, which was fixed between her legs, and then picked up a processed fish, and with a light movement of her right hand, an invisible wind blade swept by, and the fish was cut in piece by piece, and it fell right into the wooden bowl and soaked in the fruit wine.

After soaking most of the bowl, she took out another bag of things, which were full of short wooden tubes with stoppers, and different patterns were engraved on them, which should be used to identify the contents of them.

Lu gently picked one up, pulled out the stopper, shook it gently, and the white fine particles in it were evenly sprinkled on the fish, but it was salt, and then she changed to a wooden tube, but what was spilled was red powder, and yellow powder, there were many patterns.

After sprinkling, he rubbed these on the fish meat with his hands, and then poured out a large wooden tube filled with water, split the wooden tube, cut out wooden skewers, and inserted the fish into a string.

Xinghua watched silently, but saw that she was about to grill fish, although he had never seen such a practice, but it was not unusual, he now mainly looked at how she was going to roast, and there was no place to make a fire on the boat......

Before he finished thinking about it, Lu lightly grabbed two fish skewers and shouted to the back clipper: "Knife, continue." ”

He threw the skewer of fish over.

The innate ability warrior passed something through the air, naturally there was no mistake, the knife was steadily connected to the two skewers, one hand turned over, the palm was facing up, and a red flame came out, and began to scorch the skewers.

Xinghua: ......

"You use your natural abilities like this?"

"Otherwise, are you hungry?" Lu lightly looked at him with a look that wasn't very normal, "How convenient is this." If I'm out with my brother, I never make a fire. ”

After a while, the knife grilled the two skewers of fish, and then threw them back in the air, Lu gently raised his hand to take it, and the grill was just right, the chili meat and cumin powder were evenly distributed on the fish, and the fragrance was quite attractive.

She took a bite, satisfied, and continued to throw the raw fish skewers over.

Xinghua's eyes flashed slightly: "You even have chili peppers, and Liubao really doesn't hide it." ”

Lu sighed softly: "Lord Baron always thought that we had little seasoning before the accident, and the things we got out were as unpalatable as, so I didn't know where to get strange seasoning seeds, my brother hopes to replace these with food seeds that can be eaten." ”

Xinghua has also seen it, there is no staple food cultivation in Baiyan City, what are these things like chili peppers, it is useless to feed people. Things like cloth, pottery, and cement can only be regarded as wealth on the basis of being well-fed, otherwise they are nothing, so it seems that everything Liubao has done for Baiyan City is just for him to enjoy well.

Lu lightly and the knife ate fish and grilled fish one by one, and it didn't take long for the twelve people they brought out to also eat fragrant fish, which made the Shangguo side of the dry food particularly unbalanced, and they also ate the fish, because unlike Lu Qingqing, who also brought seasonings on the road, and borrowed seasonings from her, and then borrowed fire from the knife.

The road is still very long, and the knife has become everyone's man.

They drifted for several days on this long winding river, and they were a little irritable, and at last the river became wider and wider, and the water became more and more rapid, and it was said that there was a city in front of them, and to enter that city was to enter the territory of the kingdom of God.

But before that, they saw the figure.

It was a group of people who ran to the river to draw water, hiding in the grass half a person high, shrinking their heads, behaving a little secretly, suddenly seeing a group of clippers coming and hurriedly trying to hide, but a child was too panicked and fell into the water.

Lu Qing didn't think anything about those people at first, and Xinghua didn't have any special reaction, just said, "I didn't expect to see people outside Shacheng." ”

However, side by side on the fast boat, Lord Ping frowned and asked people to save the child who fell into the water.

The moment the clipper passed by, Lu Qing saw that it was a group of people who were extremely poor and thin at first glance, old and young, and women, all of whom were skinned and clothed, and around them were rough and simple buckets, basins, and other water-drawing tools, but after being rescued, they all looked frightened, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing violently.

Lu lightly showed a trace of doubt in his eyes, the people in the kingdom just asked where they were from, as for this reaction?

After another half a day, they entered a very wide water surface and saw a wharf, which was official, and this official was the border city of Shangguo, called Qinghu City, because this city was located next to Qinghu Lake, hence the name.

Lu lightly got off the boat and stepped on the ground, only to feel that his whole person was relieved, it was better on the ground.

Enter Qinghu City, the city gate here is made of large pieces of stone mixed with yellow mud, tall and rough, but also very simple, it is not bad to enter the inside, the street is wide, although the houses are all one floor, but they are arranged neatly and closely, there is no garbage on the ground, it looks quite neat.

The people here were also overzealous, and as soon as they entered, the governor of this place, that is, the lord of the city, greeted them with a smile on his waist, and the people on the street, whether near or far, rushed to kneel down to greet them, and several young men who had been cleanly washed, shaved their heads, and were still wearing clean clothes, hurriedly stepped forward to help with things, led horses, prepared water and food, and knelt and held high above their heads to take them.

Lu gently looked at a young woman holding a tray with both hands on it, with clear water and several snacks on it, kneeling on the ground and walking on her knees, trembling and waiting for them to take it, and her heart was surprised.

It's weird, isn't it? And it's embarrassing.

The city lord flattered: "The three adults have returned in less than a month, and this trip to the north seems to be going well." ”

Liu Zhi made a zombie face and glanced at him coldly, this person didn't dare to speak anymore, and hurriedly invited everyone to get into the car.

The cart was not a horse-drawn cart or an ox-cart, but a rickshaw, and the young men immediately climbed in front of the cart and bent down to pedal it, while others carried ropes in front of it, apparently pulling it.

Lu was invited by Xinghua to share a car with him again, and sitting in the car, he almost didn't feel the vibration, and the car was a little too stable.

Xinghua said: "I have never sat in this kind of car, right? The coachman is specially trained, and there will be no instability." ”

Lu said softly: "This training is a bit difficult, it will take a lot of time, right?" She thought to herself, how wasteful it is for so many young adults to do this, is there still a few horses missing?
