Chapter 149: The Past
The reason is very simple, everyone knows it in their hearts, but when huge interests are placed in front of them, it is debatable whether people can calmly make the right choice.
However, the envoy has not yet arrived in Kyoto, and no amount of speculation is in vain.
Yan Chujing replied lightly, "Hmm", and then put his attention back to the meat skewers on the table, "Anyway, let's follow the rules first, I will keep an eye on them personally, and if something inappropriate happens, stop it." ”
"Okay." Chi Xinian bowed slightly.
The two of them enjoyed their meal again, but the atmosphere was not as relaxed as before.
Yan Chujing pursed the corners of his mouth, and after eating the chili noodles stained on his lips, he casually found a topic to chat with Chi Xinian: "Tell me about your previous wars, such as this scorching technique, which you learned from others when you were fighting?" ”
"yes." Chi Xinian held his cheeks, and his thoughts drifted back to the past.
She was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke: "Xizhou is mountainous and forested, and after the rebels were defeated by our army, they turned into several stragglers and lurked in the mountains and forests in order to get a chance to escape.
"But at that time, you gave an order, saying that the grass must be cut and eradicated, otherwise there will be endless troubles. There was no choice but to dismantle the weaving of the army and throw the squads into the mountains and forests, so that they could search for the traces of the rebels. ”
"And then?" Yan Chujing looked at Chi Xinian with one hand on his cheeks, and pinched the meat skewers with the other hand, eating them with or without a pair.
Halfway through, he seemed to think that the chili noodles on it were not wrapped enough, so he took another spoon and poured a spoonful of chili peppers into his plate.
In this way, he showed a satisfied look.
"Eat less spicy, your diet is very light on weekdays, and suddenly eating such a heavy flavor is easy to upset your spleen and stomach." Seeing this, Chi Xinian couldn't help frowning.
Preferences are preferences, but you also have to pay attention to the body.
If he eats this way, will he be able to sleep tonight?
"You also know that I lived in the southwest for a few years when I was young, and the environment there was humid, and the people had to add a little spicy to everything in order to avoid the humidity. After so many years of grinding, what else can't you eat? Yan Chujing didn't care about Chi Xinian's reminder, snorted lightly, and urged her to continue to talk about herself.
Helplessly, Chi Xinian had to give up the persuasion and continued: "The rebels know the environment of the local mountains and forests better than us, and they are like fish in the water, very slippery.
"But the military order and the aftermath are there, no matter how difficult it is, you have to grit your teeth and take people down.
"So, let's just stay in the mountains and search inch by inch."
As he spoke, Chi Xinian curled the corners of his mouth again and said with a smile: "Although this is a stupid method, it is extremely effective, and within a few days, the fleeing rebels were forced to the top of the mountain by us."
"But at the same time, we have completely eaten the dry food that we spontaneously carried up the mountain..."
Chi Xinian told about his past experiences little by little, such as the uncomfortable feeling of starvation after eating dry food, and the soldiers in the team who used to make a living from hunting hunted two rabbits, and let the people in the team add ingredients to roast them.
This experience is not thrilling, but it is still interesting to tell.
Especially in the end, when she learned from others to burn meat - the general who used soldiers like a god arrived on the battlefield of the kitchen, and suddenly reversed his identity and became the weakest person.
Even because she always didn't control the temperature well, until the rebels were arrested, the "master" didn't agree with her as a teacher.
Speaking of sniffing, Chi Xinian couldn't help but hum lightly: "How can it be so unpalatable, it's just that they are picky eaters!" ”
