……

Li Anran, who lit the fire, sat on the grill. When the temperature rises to a certain level, the sirloin steak that has just been taken out of the cooler has a beautiful red color and has just been sprinkled with some black pepper and salty salt is placed on the grill net.

Licked by tongues of fire, the marbling-like grease on the steak meat soon makes an enticing sizzling sound. It didn't take long for a rich smell of meat to spread across the clearing.

On the bonfire next to it, a pot of white mushrooms and live fish that had just been caught from a stream not far away and had been processed were very clean. The soup noodles are also floating with chopped green and tender white wild green onions.

On the rocks next to the campfire are several large pieces of oval-shaped white bread brought from modern time and space. As time goes by, the bread that has been toasted through the soft and thoroughly begins to exude an attractive and milky aroma.

As the water vapor of the soup pot continued to rise, the delicious aroma and the aroma of meat and bread directly made Zhao Er, Su Xiaomei and Xiangyun, who had already vomited their stomachs clean before, constantly swallow and foam.

The mountain road that had just been driven for another hour made Li Anran, who was already accustomed to riding in the car, couldn't help but feel a little dizzy. No way, it's too bumpy. Fortunately, this crime was not in vain, and he finally found the official way smoothly.

With this fairly spacious and smooth official road, even if this place is still some distance from the county seat. At the speed of an off-road vehicle, it won't take long to get to the ground.

Considering that the eating habits of the ancients were different from those of modern times, when the steak meat was roasted to five or six minutes, Li Anran did not rush to send it to the camping table that had just been supported, but put it on a plate and then add a lid, using the temperature of the steak itself to further simmer the uncooked part inside.

With Su Xiaomei and Xiangyun's meals, it is enough for the two of them to eat one steak, after all, each piece of this sirloin steak weighs five hundred grams. However, except for a piece of Zhao Er. Li Anran himself was divided into as many as three pieces.

Wait until the steak is ready. After the soup was stewed and the bread was baked thoroughly, Li Anran and his party of four sat around the camping table and enjoyed this somewhat late lunch.

While eating. Suddenly, in the distance, there was a not-so-violent sound of horses' hooves.

Since the camping place is not far from the official road. Zhao Er, who was originally eating. He immediately picked up the long-handled war knife in his hand, staring at the direction from which the voice came, and his face was full of vigilance.

It didn't take much time. I saw a group of three horsemen turning from a bend not far away.

With Li Anran's extraordinary vision, it is easy to see the situation of these three people clearly. The people who came were two large and one small, each of the two big ones was dressed in a strong suit, and the small one was dressed as a servant. The three of them are all men, no, it should be said that the old man is a man, and the other young man and the servant are all women, but they are just dressed up in men's clothes like Su Xiaomei and Xiangyun.

Judging from the dress of these three people, as well as the suspicious items hanging on the side of the horses, Li Anran speculated that these three people were not from the government, but should be legendary rangers. However, unlike ordinary rangers, these three people know at a glance that Lu Dao is not the kind of gangster who lives at the bottom of the society, and if you really want to talk about it, it should be closer to the martial arts people in martial arts novels.

"Erlang, don't be nervous, it's okay, we'll eat ours." With that mysterious feeling, Li Anran quickly determined that these people were not coming at him, so he said with a smile.

"Yes, young master." Zhao Er, who had long regarded his young master as an immortal, naturally would not question such a statement. However, as a close guard, the vigilance that should be there has not relaxed at all, and the long-handled combat knife is directly placed at hand, and it can be drawn out to fight at any time.

At the time of these two sentences, the three people on horseback had come closer.

The black SUV parked next to the camp immediately attracted the attention of the three of them, and then their eyes fell on the four people who were sitting at the camping table enjoying a delicious lunch.

To Su Xiaomei and Xiangyun's dark relief, the three of them did not stop, but ran over in one go.

But before the two of them could breathe a sigh of relief completely, they heard a sound of "sigh" horses, and when they looked at it, they saw that the three horses that had just run past suddenly stopped, and then turned around and rushed back here.

After seeing this scene, Zhao Er didn't care about anything to eat, "Choke!" With a single blow, he pulled out the long-handled war knife that he had in his hand. And Su Xiaomei and Xiangyun couldn't help but press their hands on the short sword at their waists.

I don't know if Lu Dao felt Zhao Er's vigilance, or because he was afraid of the war knife that flashed in the sun, the three people who rode back on their horses stopped their horses from a distance and slowed down, and soon stopped on the edge of the official road.

"Stop coming!" Zhao Er, who posed with a two-handed knife starter, shouted.

"This strong man has been invited, the old man Wei Yan, who is passing by here with his children and is a little hungry and thirsty, I wonder if I can buy some food and water?" The old man with the head sat on the horse and arched his hand, and said.

"To be able to meet in this vast sea of people is fate. Jiro, it doesn't have to be like this. Li Anran, who didn't feel the slightest malice and hostility from the other party, didn't wait for Zhao Er to speak, and walked over with a smile and said.

"Young Master." Zhao Er, who let go of his body, had no intention of taking back the steel knife in his hand.

"Wei Lao invited, under Li Anran, he was ordered to go to Fuzhou to rest here temporarily, as the saying goes, it is better to meet by chance, if you don't dislike it, why don't you come for a while?" Li Anran, who bowed his hand, invited with a smile.

"Li Langjun invited, he shouldn't have refused, but he and Xiao'er still have urgent things to do, just ask Langjun to give him some water and food." Wei Yan, who was sitting on the horse, arched his hand and smiled politely.

"In that case, Mei'er, Yun'er, take some bread out of the cloud car, and those two untouched steaks, and take three bottles of water for Erlang to send over." Li Anran, who knew that the other party was also very cautious, did not force it, and turned his head and ordered.

Su Xiaomei and Xiangyun, who got the order, took out a brown paper bag of bread and three bottles of water from the car very neatly, and then handed over the two steaks on the table that had not been touched on the table together with the porcelain plates to Zhao Er's hands.

"Erlang, don't forget to bring back the water bottle." When handing over things, Xiangyun didn't forget to remind him.

"Understood." Zhao Er, who knew that his young master did not allow these soft bottles to flow outside, immediately nodded in agreement.

When he saw Zhao Er coming over with food and water, Wei Yan immediately turned over and dismounted, and stepped forward alone.

"It's bread, you can tear it open and eat it. It's a steak that no one has touched when it's just grilled. If you are water, there is also a gourd to overload. Zhao Er, who had stuck the war knife on the side before, said while handing over the things in his hand.

"There is a strong man, I'll go get it." After being stunned for a moment, he took the paper bag and porcelain plate containing bread and steak. Then he walked back to the official road and handed over to the two tomboys, one big and one small, who also got off the horse, and then took two gourds from the side of the horse and brought them over.

Three bottles of mineral water were filled with a gourd and a half, although it is not much, but the distance from here to the county seat is more than enough.

When Zhao Er handed over the things, Li Anran stood aside and watched. I thought something would happen in the process, but unfortunately, the reality is often unexpected. It wasn't until the old man named Wei Yan flashed after taking the things and thanking him, and nothing happened.

"I'll go! Sure enough, the novel is not credible, I thought something could happen, but I didn't think it would be over like this. Seeing that the three of them quickly disappeared into the distance of the official road, Li Anran shrugged his shoulders in disappointment and sat back in his seat.

"Young master, these people are not simple, especially the old man, there must be a life on him." Zhao Er, who had the long knife in its sheath, did not rush to eat after returning to the table, but spoke.

"I also feel it, but there is nothing wrong with this person, if I guess correctly, it should be a fast catcher or something, not some Jiangyang thief." Li Anran, who cut off a piece of steak and stuffed it into his mouth, shook his head with a smile and said.

"Young Master, why would you say that?" Su Xiaomei, who was on the side, asked puzzledly.

"Because the other party is wearing a pair of official boots, and what should be hanging immediately is an official-made weapon horizontal knife, and there is a token on his waist." With his extraordinary eyesight, Li Anran said confidently. (To be continued......)
