Eating hot stewed pork ribs with lotus root and drinking rice wine that has also been heated is really a good choice in this cold weather.

Although Old Man Huang can't practice, he has lived alone for more than 200 years, and his cooking skills are still very good, at least Li Xian thinks that tonight's pot of stewed pork ribs with lotus root is simply delicious.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Xian saw that Du Yinglan and Quzi were still worried, and knew that they were worried about whether their resistance would lead to more cruel persecution of the townspeople in Crockpot Town, and even the most delicious food would become difficult to swallow, so he said: "If Huiyuan wants to be rebuilt, naturally we can't let the bandits run rampant, and the most direct and effective way to crack down on the bandit gang is to kill the three leaders of the bandits." I'm sure you've seen the strength of that fat man, and he's only the last one in the ranking, so if you want to defeat such a powerful enemy, you must at least keep yourself in your heyday at all times, right?"

"And now you, taking care of your injuries is the most important thing, I don't want anyone to go hungry to carry out the following plan, and when the time comes, because of hunger, something goes wrong, I can't help it. ”

"Aren't we going to settle accounts with those hateful bandits?"

The corners of Song Xuewu's mouth were still greasy, but she asked the doubts in the hearts of Old Man Huang and the others straightforwardly.

Li Xian smiled: "Of course, your method will also work, but the premise of doing so is that our strength must be overwhelming, otherwise, once the leader avoids and does not fight, let some shrimp soldiers and crabs consume us in the future, it will be like sending us to death." ”

Speaking of this, Li Xian turned his face to look at Qu Zi and Du Yinglan, and said: "And if you want to directly face the remaining two bandit leaders, and then kill them quickly, the best way is, of course, to let Qu Zi and Du Girl, who originally belonged to them, be introduced, I seem to have heard that the second master can think of marrying Miss Du." ”

Quzi said: "What does Brother Li mean, let me pretend to surrender and escort this Du girl to receive the reward?"

Li Xian said with a smile: "So, my future wife, the second master will naturally meet the last one, and the second master will naturally see me when he sees you and Miss Du, because I was a little girl escorting Miss Du at that time." ”

"However, in case things fail, wouldn't Miss Du be"

"Quzi, just do what Brother Li said, it's a big deal to die, anyway, if we can't save the people in the town, we will also suffer if we live secretly. ”

Du Yinglan interrupted the song and said firmly.

Li Xian smiled, and continued: "This is also a matter of no choice, the current Zhongzhou is an unsupervised area, and the bandit gang is rampant, if you know the news of the death of the fat third man, you will definitely be angry with the people in Crockpot Town, and it is even very likely that some people will die to warn other guys who are about to make money for them." ”

"Kill the chicken and set an example, the town of the pot has become the chicken, in the case of not being able to find foreign aid, this is the best choice, so the two of you, the song and the girl Du, not only have to eat enough, but also have to rest well, so that your injuries can heal faster, so it will naturally be more beneficial to rescue the townspeople of the town. ”

Many times, people just lack a plan and a goal, with these two things, whatever you do, it will be more effective with half the effort, originally only pinned all your hopes on Li Xian and Du Yinglan, at this time I found that I could also do something to save the townspeople in Crockpot Town, and suddenly lifted my spirit.

A big pot of lotus root stewed pork ribs went down, and everyone finally went back to their rooms satisfied, and the time for action was set for the next morning, and it was necessary to have a good night's sleep tonight.

But often the more I want to go to sleep quickly to nourish my spirits, but the more difficult it is to fall asleep, I don't know what the situation of other people is, at least Li Xian is awake now, coupled with the abdomen that still has some faint pain, it is even more difficult to sleep with peace of mind than to ascend to the sky, fortunately he got dressed and walked out of his room, but he didn't want to see Song Xuewu's lonely figure in the backyard.

Loneliness does not mean that a person is lonely, some people are still lonely when he is in the city every day, this is an indescribable feeling, at least Song Xuewu in the past, she has never felt lonely, so why does she feel lonely now?

"Why hasn't Xiao Wu slept yet?"

"Aren't you the same?"

Song Xuewu turned her back to Li Xian, looking at the night ahead, as if there was something there that had been attracting her attention, so that even Li Xian's question couldn't make her turn back.

"You're not going to take me on an adventure, are you?"

"Escorting Miss Du, I would have been a little redundant to be alone, let alone add you, in that case, there would be a greater chance of being exposed in advance. ”

"So, I'm going to wait here for news with trepidation, you don't want to try this uneasy feeling, sometimes I ask myself, is this protecting me, or is it hurting me?"

Li Xian smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry I didn't take your feelings into account." ”

"Yes, this is a kind of injury, if two people are together, not only is the strength greater, but even if it is death, you can face it calmly, but you always self-righteous exclude me, I feel very hurt and lonely, because I feel that I have given you enough trust, but you are always unable to believe me, believe that I have the strength to protect myself, believe that I have the ability to help you. ”

"Well, since she is the woman who will be the second leader in the future, she naturally has to be careful with the escort, so in order to be foolproof, Quzi invited two monks to escort her, otherwise if you meet a casual chivalrous guy like in the city, you will take off and end up with a chicken and egg. ”

Li Xian said to himself, there is really no reason to refuse Song Xuewu's joining.

Song Xuewu took a deep breath, then turned her head and grimaced at Li Xian, and said, "I thought you wouldn't agree." ”

"Why, you see that I didn't just agree. ”

Li Xian knew that the rain had passed and the sky was clear, so he said with a smile: "By the way, why did you come here in the middle of the night, did you expect me to come here, and I just made a look of loss?"

Song Xuewu said angrily: "Who expected it a long time ago, I call it true feelings, it's just that you happened to not sleep at this time, and you happened to be out of the room, and it was even more coincidental that you ran into me who was sad as soon as you came." ”

Li Xian nodded with a smile, indicating that he agreed, but said coldly: "Then why did you have to turn your back to me just now?"

"Of course, it's to set the mood!"

Song Xuewu blurted out, and quickly covered her little mouth, and then found that Li Xianzheng had a smile in his eyes, and couldn't help but be annoyed: "Wow, it seems that Xiao Xianzi hasn't been beaten enough by the fat and bald man." ”

Li Xian raised his hand in surrender and said, "Stop, stop, be a lady, a lady, if you continue to develop like this, you will definitely become a new generation of female tyrannosaurus." ”

Hearing this, Song Xuewu's raised powder fist did not hesitate for a moment, and she suddenly became squirming and said, "So, the little sage likes ladies?"

Li Xian touched his nose, turned his head to look at the sky and said, "Where did we talk about just now?"

"You just talked about whether you like ladies or not. ”

The window door behind Li Xian was suddenly pushed open, and Old Man Huang interjected seriously.

"You, you, you eavesdrop on us!"

Song Xuewu blushed and said incoherently.

"Some people are talking too loudly, and they are right under my ears, how can they be considered eavesdropping, and you woke me up, I haven't asked you for a reason, but you are questioning me, what is this called?"

"I'm sorry, it's noisy to your old man. ”

Li Xian hurriedly said to Old Man Huang, just because he already knew what Old Man Huang was going to say next, so he decided that it would be better not to listen, and Song Xuewu, who was unwilling to admit defeat, quarreled with this old man endlessly.

"So, you've heard all the conversation just now?" Song Xuewu still refused to give up.

Old man Huang said seriously: "I just started with the sentence 'Why hasn't Xiao Wu slept yet'. ”

Song Xuewu muttered dejectedly: "Since you have decided to eavesdrop, why do you choose to show up? ”

Although Old Man Huang is not a monk, his ears are surprisingly bright, but when he heard this, he was not very angry, but just turned at Li Xian and said, "Boy, actually, I can still do something." ”

Li Xian smiled bitterly: "It seems that everyone in our temporary team is quite positive." ”

"Not really. ”

Old man Huang said energetically: "Old man, although I can't participate in direct battles, but I think my cooking skills are still good, as far as I know, your target is the second thief in charge, it is on Qingyun Peak, which is more than three hundred miles away from here, this journey will take a lot of time, how can I be such a capable fireman." ”

"It's also a loss to your old man's lower value. ”

Li Xian has the precedent of Song Xuewu in front of him, so naturally it is not good to refuse this old gentleman anymore.

Old man Huang said angrily: "What about the old man, in the afternoon, you kid scolded people politely." ”

Li Xian scratched his head embarrassedly, and said with an embarrassed smile: "That's also to make the old man realize your mistakes, if I look like a hippie smile, I believe you won't take it to heart." ”

"That's right, it's the same as teaching students, if you don't put on a teacher's shelf, those bunnies can really go crazy. But in that case, you're teaching me like a child?!"

"Ahh ”
