Chapter 126: Delicious Snake Soup
Opening remarks: This chapter is dedicated to expressing a strong resentment towards someone.
In the town near the White Horse Mountains in Liujing County, the eastern province of the Ingra occupation area, Ouyang Yu and his party, who had just arrived here, were resting in the town with the governor's guard lent to Roni by Governor Hope.
Ouyang Yu, who had not found a chance to escape after rescuing tens of thousands of refugees, reluctantly said goodbye to Anne and Anna who were crying, and continued to move towards the west under the "protection" of Ronnie and Tyve.
The White Horse Mountain Range is one of the most famous mountain ranges on the eastern continent, stretching for thousands of miles in a north-south direction, otherwise it would be impossible for Lancelot's rebels to fight the Imperial Army here for several months, and it takes a lot of preparation to cross the White Horse Mountains, so Ouyang Yu and they stayed in the town for two days.
During the stay, Ouyang Yu wanted to go out to check the local customs as usual, and he was not very strict with her life freedom Luoni and Special Guard, after all, he didn't want to tear his face with Ouyang Yu, but hoped that she could marry the crown prince willingly, so Ouyang Yu would not stop him from going out, but the little tail was naturally there.
Walking through the streets of the town, Ouyang Yu was followed by Ellie, Tabasa, and Ulysses, because of Ouyang Yu's bad taste, Ellie and Tabasa were forced by her to put on maid clothes, while Ulysses was dressed as a groom.
Some of Ouyang Yu's orders to the special guards could not help but listen, so the six of Ika reluctantly put on the costumes formulated by Ouyang Yu, the captain Ika was the butler, the big man Raychel was the guard, the young Ulysses was a groom, the tall and thin Redder was a handyman, Ellie and Tabassa were personal maids, Ouyang Yu and the special guards played a game of playing house, and at the same time, they deliberately did it for their own bad breath, I thought that the special guards would not agree, but I didn't expect to agree, so there is the current scene.
The town where Ouyang Yu is located is not much different from the others, with a population of more than 9,000, the Phoenix people account for one-tenth, and the rest are all Ingra people, but only one-tenth of the Phoenix people occupy nine-tenths of the wealth of the town, and most of the remaining tenths are still in the hands of the so-called honorary Phoenix people who oppress their comrades and help them, and the ordinary Ingra people are all destitute.
Ouyang Yu walked on the street and the surrounding Ingla people all hid aside, looking at her with fear and hatred, they didn't even dare to say a word, obviously regarded her as a Phoenix, most of the Phoenix people were black-haired or black-eyed in appearance, and their facial features were slightly different from those of the Eastern Continent, and they looked similar to the Chinese people on the earth, while the people of the Eastern Continent looked closer to the whites, with colorful hair and eyes, and the two were easy to see at a glance, so it was not surprising that Ouyang Yu was mistaken for a Phoenix, but in a sense, she was not wrongγ
After walking all the way, Ouyang Yu didn't find anything interesting, and there happened to be a restaurant with a good business on the side of the road, so she lifted her skirt and walked towards the restaurant.
"Temple...... Miss, this is a restaurant for Dalits, how can you dine here with your noble status, if you want to taste the food? There is a restaurant for us Phoenix people not far in front, where the food is clean and delicious, much better than the Dalit food, why don't we go there?"
Ulysses, who was following behind Ouyang Yu, opened his mouth to dissuade him, but Ouyang Yu ignored it and walked straight into the restaurant, Ellie and the others had no choice but to follow in, after Ouyang Yu and the four of them walked into the restaurant, the restaurant that was originally full of people instantly quieted down, and the Ingla people who were eating inside all looked at them in surprise, thinking what are the damn Phoenix people doing here?
Ignoring the curious and hateful gazes cast by the surrounding Ingla people, Ouyang Yu randomly chose a table and sat down, and then asked Ellie and the others to sit down together, and the proprietress of the restaurant came over tremblingly and asked, "A few adults, do you want to eat here?"
"You're here in a restaurant, of course you're here to eat, do you have a clown show to watch in addition to eating here?"
Ouyang Yu's words were originally just to relieve the tension of the proprietress so that she was no longer so afraid, but the speaker had no intention of listening, and her words made the Ingra people who were eating around her think that she was saying that the Ingra people around her were clowns, so they all stared at her with angry eyes.
"Damn the Phoenix!" a young Ingla boy sitting in a remote corner of the restaurant reached his back, a magic crystal pistol stuck in his belt.
"What do you want to do? β
The companion sitting next to the young man stopped the impulsive young man, the young man's chest continued to rise and fall, and he finally held back his anger and put his hand back, these two were spies of the Resistance Army, and they were sent by Lancelot to spy on Ouyang Yu and them.
Ouyang Yu, who knew that he had said the wrong thing, smiled embarrassedly, took the menu from the proprietress and looked at it, and asked at the same time, "Do you have any special dishes here?"
The proprietress replied with a smile: "Yes, yes, the most famous thing I am here is hemp snake soup." (Well, a lot of people must know what it means, right??, damn the strips are updating so slowly.) οΌ
"Snake soup?" Ouyang Yu smiled curiously.
"Yes. The proprietress explained: "The snake is a kind of snake unique to our local area, the size is not large, and there is no poison, it feeds on small animals, the meat is smooth and nutritious, so the people in our town have a tradition of eating hemp snake from ancient times to the present, frying, stir-frying, stewing, roasting, there are many ways to cook it, if you don't dislike it, please taste any?"
"Okay, you can fry it, fry it, stew it, roast everything. Ouyang Yu ordered a few other dishes and returned the menu to the proprietress .
"Well, wait a minute. The proprietress remembered the dishes Ouyang Yu ordered and turned around and left.
The serving speed of this restaurant is still very fast, plates of steaming delicious dishes are served by the proprietress , Ouyang Yu smells the aroma of the food and moves his index fingers, feeling that he can eat the whole table of dishes.
A delicious snake meal made Ouyang Yu's stomach roll, and Ellie and Ulysses, who followed her, were originally reluctant to eat, but seeing that she and Tabassa ate so deliciously, the two of them couldn't resist the temptation and picked up the knife and fork, but as a result, the two of them became addicted as soon as they ate it, and they ate more than Ouyang Yu and Tabassa.
Wiped his mouth clean with a handkerchief, Ouyang Yu took out a few silver coins and handed them to the proprietress, who didn't dare to take them and said with some fear: "My lord, you can eat happily, you don't need to give money." β
Ouyang Yu grabbed the proprietress and stuffed the silver coin into her hand, "How can someone who opens the door to do business not take money and take it." β
The proprietress was a little apprehensive with a few silver coins, and she had the impression that the Phoenix people never gave money for eating in her restaurant, and she had found excuses to blackmail, and she had never seen so much money for eating.
"Let's go, I'll have a chance to eat again in the future. β
After eating, Ouyang Yu left the restaurant with three tails satisfied, and continued to browse this small town, and did not go back until it was almost dark.
Known as the nine bends and eighteen turns, the Hakuba Mountains have long been the best hiding place for bandits, robbers and fugitives, and the Resistance has been operating in the mountains for months, so the Governor's Guard and the Secret Guards are in good spirits.
The town's garrison also sent more than a hundred people to join the escort team, and a convoy of more than a dozen magic energy trucks drove slowly along the winding mountain road.
When the convoy came to a bend of almost 90 degrees, the leading car suddenly fell into a large pit, and then the gunfire was loud, and the hill on the left side of the road fired a dense light bullet, and the unprotected truck was shot with thousands of holes, and the soldiers of the Governor's Guard and the local garrison in the truck immediately suffered heavy casualties.
"Enemy attack!"
After the initial confusion, the Governor's Guard and the soldiers of the garrison jumped out of their trucks as fast as they could, and opened fire on the nearest enemy who was looking for cover and the road, and the two sides were fighting back and forth.
Ouyang Yu was protected by Ellie, got out of the magic car and hid behind a big rock, several people of the special guard were distributed around, Roni had already begun to command the governor's guard and garrison to counterattack, according to Ouyang Yu's observation, the unknown enemy had at least four hundred people, not losing to the firepower of the regular army, but the marksmanship did not dare to be flattering, the previous sneak attack only eliminated fifty or sixty imperial soldiers, and most of them were damage caused by machine guns, if it was replaced by the soldiers under her command, it would be at least doubled.
The two sides fired at each other for a while, and the hill on the right side of the road suddenly fired a dense number of light bullets, and the Imperial soldiers who were caught off guard were killed a lot, and the convoy was caught in a two-sided attack, and the road in front was destroyed and could not advance and could only retreat backwards.
"Boom!"
The truck at the back of the convoy was shot into the energy tank by the light, and the liquid crystal liquid that caught fire inside blew the entire truck to pieces and blocked the road, and the more than 100 of them would have escaped without the truck.
"Ellie, Tabasa, you protect Her Excellency the Countess and go first!"
The soldiers under Luo Ni are fighting less and less, she knows very well that she can't hold out for long, although she doesn't understand what the purpose of the sudden appearance of the enemy is, but Ouyang Yu must not fall into their hands.
"Yes, Your Highness. β
Ellie and Tabassa grabbed Ouyang Yu's wrists and dragged her, and under the protection of more than a dozen soldiers, they burrowed into the woods beside the road.
