Fuwangli is the farthest one of the forty-eight miles of nine towns around Wancheng, and it is almost fifty miles away from Wancheng.

Because it was necessary to catch the carriage for at least an hour, Wu Yong was the only one who delivered food to the Taishou Mansion this time, plus the coachman Li Zhong to show the way.

Zhang Ji because of the relationship between Zhuo Wenxuan and Zhang Pinji, yesterday was staying at Zhuo's house, and now he saw that Wu Yong was going to Wancheng, so he asked Zhuo Wenxuan and Wu Yong's grandmother to say goodbye, first, he could escort Wu Yong to Wancheng, and secondly, his main purpose from Nieyang this time was to visit the famous doctor in Wancheng.

At this time, Wu Yong, who was sitting in the carriage, was solving Zhang Ji's doubts.

"Brother Wu Jiaxian, I heard my uncle say that you once said that there are countless bacteria around us, but there is a way to verify it?"

Wu Yong didn't expect him to ask this question, thought for a while, and asked, "I don't know if Brother Zhang has ever treated a person's external injuries?" ”

Seeing him nodding, Wu Yong said: "Brother Zhang should know very well that if these external injuries cannot be treated in time, the wounds are likely to rot, which is actually caused by bacteria." ”

"Really, I didn't think of it before." Zhang Ji thought back, and it was really as Wu Yong said, it seems that this bacterial theory is going to change the research of medicine.

Wu Yong continued: "This bacterium is not only distributed in the air, but also widely distributed in soil and water, or in symbiosis with other organisms. For example, we humans have a large number of bacteria in the human body, not only around the human skin, but also in the intestines, mouth, blood, and other parts of the body. ”

Wu Yong's words completely subverted Zhang Ji's cognition, and he shuddered when he thought that his body was full of bacteria, "Can't you kill these bacteria?" ”

Wu Yong shook his head, "We are interdependent with these bacteria, and we can't survive without them." These bacteria are a very important part of our entire body system, helping us digest, get the nutrients in our food, and make every part of our body function well. ”

"So if we die, the bacteria will die with us?"

Wu Yong felt that the more he talked, the more questions Zhang Ji had, and he couldn't answer many questions. Fortunately, the carriage soon arrived at the suspension bridge of the Wancheng moat, and he could finally get rid of Zhang Ji's question.

Wu Yong stepped out of the carriage and looked at the majestic city wall in front of him, feeling a little shocked in his heart, this is also high, how did the ancient people capture such a high city?

Looking ahead, the two gates opened, and more than a dozen soldiers guarding the gates, each holding a sword, looked serious, and checked every flow of people, chariots and horses entering and leaving the city.

Seeing that he would have to wait in line for a long time to enter the city, Wu Yong began to slowly observe the crowd around him, including merchants dressed in silk and satin, ordinary people in ragged clothes, and even many blonde foreigners.

Soon a guard came up and asked, "Where are you from?" What to do in town? ”

Li Zhong often dealt with these people guarding the city gate, and he naturally understood the rules, so he counted out thirty copper coins, handed them to the guards, and said politely: "We are the people of Fuwang, and we have come to send some food to the Taishou Mansion." ”

"What to eat? Can there be a certificate of the Taishou Mansion? ”

Wu Yong hurriedly took out the jade plate and handed it to him, and the guard carefully examined it before he spoke: "You come with me." ”

After a while, several people came to the city gate together, and the guard waved his hand to signal Wu Yong and his party to wait here, and he ran a few steps quickly, passed through the city gate, and came to the lobby of a restaurant, and said to three richly dressed people: "My lord, the person who the king is waiting for has arrived." ”

As he spoke, he handed over Wu Yong's jade plate.

At this time, a middle-aged man in his forties, with a slender figure, snatched the jade plate, glanced at it, laughed, and said: "With Lao and two generals to accompany him, he will take him away." ”

After saying that, he hurriedly ran out, leaving the two of them looking at each other.

One of the burly men said suspiciously: "This king's steward relies on his own backer in the palace, but his eyes are higher than the top on weekdays, and he can't look down on ordinary people, but today is strange, not only waited for so long, but also personally went to greet a common person." ”

Another man with a strong appearance wearing a square scarf hesitated for a moment, but still said: "I heard that the little lady in the house has been arguing about what buns and dumplings to eat since the morning, and it is said that only Wu Yong in Fuwang can do it in the whole world, and Lord Taishou has personally gone to his house to eat a few times." ”

"What is the origin of this Wu Yong, to let Lord Taishou deign to go to his house instead of inviting him?"

"It is said that he used to be a fugue and a descendant of the five major families of our Wancheng, and now even their family heads revolve around him all day long. Not to mention anything else, the anxiety relief bun that appeared in Wancheng in recent days was spread by this one. ”

"No wonder! But then again, are these buns and dumplings really so delicious? ”

"I haven't eaten it again, how do you know! But I have eaten the anxiety relief bun that has appeared in the past few days, and the taste is really unforgettable. ”

At this time, two more guards walked in, one carrying two strange baskets, which were filled with anxiety relief buns, and the other carrying a food box, and could not see what was inside, and one of them stepped forward and said, "My lord, this is the food left by the person who the king's steward wants to receive, and it is said that the family has prepared it alone for the soldiers who defend the city." ”

The two laughed and didn't take it seriously. Let them carry a basket away, "This is a relief from worries, you are on duty today, and it is also hard, take it and share it." ”

The two guards grinned at once, and ran out with their baskets, apparently to share their food and relieve their worries.

When the two of them opened the food box, a strong fragrance spread, and everyone passing by in the lobby couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

In the blink of an eye, four large bowls were served, a bowl of steamed large meat skin, a bowl of radish mixed meat, a bowl of meatballs, and a bowl of stewed pork ribs.

"What kind of meat is this, it smells so good!" The burly man felt that the smell of the flesh almost hooked out the insects in his stomach, making his stomach rumble all the time.

At the moment, regardless of the strange gazes of other people, he picked up a piece of pork ribs and sent it to his mouth, and then he couldn't stop at all, one chopstick after another.

The man wearing the scarf saw that in the blink of an eye, a bowl of pork ribs was about to bottom, and hurriedly joined the ranks of grabbing food.

Soon the two of them ate the four bowls of meat cleanly, and then sighed: "I finally understand why the little lady in the house is making trouble, after eating this, how can I still have the appetite to eat other food." ”

But he said that Wu Yong was here, and as soon as he handed out the food prepared for the soldiers defending the city in the carriage, he saw a person rushing out of the city gate and shouted to him: "But Wu Yong in Fuwang? ”

Wu Yong was more surprised, he had never been out of Fuwang, and there were people from Wancheng who knew him. But he'd never seen this man before. But he still replied honestly: "I'm Wu Yong, who are you?" ”

When the man heard Wu Yong's reply, he was immediately overjoyed, waved his hand to let the guards let them in, pointed at Wu Yong and said, "This is the person named by Mrs. Taishou Mansion and Xiao Niang, don't be lazy, I'll take him to see Madame." ”

Then while walking towards the city gate, he explained with a smile: "Xiao Langjun made a certain person wait for a morning, a certain is the steward of the Taishou Mansion, surnamed Wang, Xiao Langjun just calls me the king in charge." ”

Wu Yong didn't expect that he would enjoy preferential treatment the first time he entered the city, and the steward of the Taishou Mansion would come to pick him up in person.

When he walked into the city gate, the crowd increased, and even when he passed through some street entrances, it seemed very crowded, looking inside, there were all kinds of shops on the side of the road, people interspersed with them, it seemed very lively.

At this time, Zhang Ji proposed to separate, Wu Yong knew that his heart to study medicine was firm, and he didn't do much to keep him, but only said that he would look for him in Fuwang if he had something.

After Zhang Ji left, Steward Wang said with a smile: "I just heard from the little lady in the house that there will be food in Fuwang today, but I didn't expect Xiao Langjun to come in person." ”

Wu Yong hurriedly explained: "So that the king steward knows that today my family started building a house, and killed a pig for sacrifice, you also know that this pork is the most difficult to make, so it took a long time, but it made you wait for a long time." ”

After a pause, Wu Yong continued:

"Originally, I was going to continue making dumplings and buns, but after the pork was made today, the neighbors thought it was very delicious, so I changed my mind temporarily. The kid was also worried that if the Taishou family knew that they didn't give them the food, the ordinary people would not be able to bear it, so in order to save a few meals, he deliberately made a few dishes with pork. ”

Hearing that it was pork, Steward Wang's face changed, and he asked with some uncertainty: "It's not that I underestimate Xiao Langjun, but this pork is difficult to get into the elegant hall, in case it is not as good as Xiao Niang's mind, you and I will eat a meal." ”

Wu Yong only said that he was cautious, waved his hand to signal Li Zhong to stop the carriage, and then took out a meat bun from the car, handed it to Steward Wang, and said with a smile: "This is specially prepared by grandmother who is worried that I will go back late and be hungry on the road, you can taste it." ”

Steward Wang took it, smelled the aroma of meat, swallowed his saliva, took a bite carefully, and immediately mixed various flavors such as fragrant, spicy, numb, salty, sweet and so on, which made him stunned for a long time before sighing: "If Xiao Langjun hadn't told me in advance that this thing was pork, that is, dragon meat, I would have believed it." I'm ashamed to have lived in vain for so many years, and today I know the meaning of 'slang people don't know, rarely see and rarely hear'. ”

Seeing that something had happened here, the passers-by stopped at this moment, and only a few people who were afraid of things lowered their heads and continued to walk as if nothing had happened.

Wu Yong was a little embarrassed, thinking that there would not be such an exaggeration, seeing that there were more and more onlookers, he was worried that he would speak amazingly, so he couldn't help reminding: "If the king steward thinks the taste is okay, you might as well eat it while it's hot, if it's cold, the taste will be a little worse." ”

When Steward Wang heard Wu Yong say this, he was worried that he was wasting the food, so he ate it quickly regardless of the strange eyes of the people around him.

At this moment, a commanding voice appeared in Wu Yong's ears, "Heh, isn't this the king's steward, you actually stole food in front of the public, take it to Ben Hou to see!" ”
