Chapter 21: Crisis
Chapter 21: Crisis
I often hear my mother say that Duan Zixi's family has a great background, and his father Duan Soul is the prime minister of the Yimin Empire, and the position of prime minister is generally re-elected by their family, so the reputation of the Duan family is one of the best in the Yimin Empire! Then approach today's dinner with the worst mindset. The standard of the so-called "delicious" is: as long as you swallow it and don't spit it out, it is delicious!!
However, a smell completely shattered my impression of Duan Zixi's cooking skills. That kind of fragrance, refreshing, if it weren't for strong self-control, saliva would come out!!
"What's it, so fragrant?" Zhang Hang sniffed and said. Duan Zixi smiled and said nothing, still busy with his own work. To see how good her cooking is, I decided to try it myself.
"Sister, do you need me to help you with something? Seeing that you are busy going around alone, I want to help you something! Is there anything I want to help?" I pretended to ask, but I was "a drunkard who doesn't mean to drink, I care about Duan Zixi's cooking skills."
"Oh, why is the sun coming out in the west today? My annoying brother has a gentlemanly demeanor? Well, it's rare for you to be like this for a while, go, help me pick up some firewood, the fire is a little small." Duan Zixi said.
"Ah, what do you mean to be annoying? If I didn't have another purpose, I wouldn't help you!!" I complained while collecting firewood.
In the wilderness at night, the vision is really not very good, I am busy with back pain, not to mention, Chai Cai picked up a small hug (that is, with an arm to hug it), it was too tired, I didn't pick it up again, so I hugged this small hug back.
"Sister, it's too dark to see clearly, so I picked up a little bit, is it enough?" I asked. Duan Zixi looked at the firewood I was holding and said, "It should be about the same, burn it first, and if it's not enough, you can pick it up later." Let's help add firewood!!"
As I added firewood, I looked around, looking for the food that Duan Zixi had made and the source of the fragrance. At this time, a green thing came into my sight, and I didn't ask Duan Zixi what it was, it should have been made by her, I didn't say a word, I grabbed it and threw it in my mouth, and bit it, oh my mother, fourth uncle and grandmother, I am so bitter!!
"Bah, what the hell, so bitter!!" I said.
Seeing my wolf bรจi look, Duan Zixi covered his mouth and smiled: "That's the raw material for my cooking-bitter endive (bitter ju four sounds, some people should know, this thing is very bitter) I use it to season, what kind of good food should you eat!!!" โ
"Well, just as I don't say anything. I said.
After a while, Duan Zixi smiled and said, "The meal is ready, let's eat." "The three of us went to eat, and Duan Zixi caught a few fish in the river at noon, which happened to be used for cooking, so there was fish soup for dinner tonight.
A mouthful of warm fish soup in the stomach, suddenly feel a lot warmer, the fishy smell of the fish has been covered by an unknown taste, it should be the endive regulation, after drinking, there is still an aftertaste in the mouth, so that people have an endless aftertaste. "Good, good soup, good cooking!!" Li Youming said with praise.
"It's over!!" Duan Zixi said modestly.
"Impossible, how can she have such good cooking skills?" I said to myself on the side, but unexpectedly, when Duan Zixi heard it, she knocked on my head and said: "The young lady of other big families can not touch the spring water with ten fingers, but our family is different, my father requires me to learn basic work, I want to cook, sew clothes and the like, basically piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and hops, I must learn it all over!
"I'll go, then I'm going to go crazy!!" I said in shock, I didn't expect their family to be so strict.
After a while, we returned to the tent, looked forward to the wind in the wilderness, and fell asleep quietly.
"Get up, lazy bugs. "Duan Zixi began to teach us to get up and hurry early in the morning.
"What time is it!!!
"Lazy pig, the sun is drying your ass, get up. Duan Zixi pulled my ear and said. I waved my hand indiscriminately, but with my hand, I accidentally touched something soft...... This made me sober up a lot in an instant, and I glanced at Duan Zixi's slightly flushed face again, and instantly understood, grabbed my clothes, put them on, and immediately walked out of the tent, as if nothing had happened.
Duan Zixi continued to show us the way, and she came to my ear and said, "What happened just now, if you dare to spread it, I can't spare you!!"
I immediately shut up so as not to be killed.
At this time, there was a large group of people behind us, and judging by the scale, there must be 400,000 people. Duan Zixi motioned for us to hide and see the movement of this team.
The pair came to a shady stop, not far from us, and we could hear what they were saying.
One person said, "There is the Imin Empire ahead, and we must destroy it." โ
"Yes, just succeed, don't fail!!" said another. "What about the insiders?" "They are waiting for our action. "Okay, act at night. Let's set up camp here first!!"
"What should we do now?" Zhang Hang asked.
"They are going to work in the Yimin Empire at night! If I guessed correctly, the person they led should be Lu Ye, I heard my father say that this Lu Ye was originally the deputy general of the Yimin Empire, and because he had not been promoted to the rank of general, he was unwilling, so he took his 30,000 men and left the Yimin Empire. I didn't expect that in the past few years, he had developed to this point!!We first used the invisibility spell to get out of their sight, and then quickly went to the Yimin Empire and told my father about it!!" Duan Zixi said.
"Stealth. "All four of us were invisible, and then slowly moved out of their sight.
After walking for about five hundred meters, we couldn't see them anymore when we turned around, so we were relieved to disarm the spell.
"Now one of the three of you will teleport on my back, and I'll show you the way, let's hurry up to the Imin Empire. Who are you?" said Duan Zixi.
"I'll come, you're my sister. With that, I turned my back at her, and she jumped on it, and we began to run wild for the Imin Empire.
"Hide--Extremely fast. "I ran in front with Duan Zixi on my back. "Keep up!!Keep moving and listen to me!!"
"Wind Walk. Zhang Hang also left. "Nether-teleportation. Li Youming followed.
"Run faster, the sky will rain. "Duan Zixi cast a spell behind me.
After receiving the energy from the sky, my speed increased a lot.
In this way, we came to the west gate of the Imin Empire. "Let's go to my house first, you must be tired after walking so far!!" Duan Zixi said.
As Duan Zixi said, there are still a lot of Ximen people in the Yimin Empire, and Li Youming looked at the Libra spar that had never shone from time to time, and couldn't help but sigh.
"This kind of thing can't be rushed, there are so many people in the Yimin Empire, we can find him!!" Duan Zixi comforted.
After walking for a while, we came to the door of the family, and Duan Zixi said, "This is my home." โ
Her home is really luxurious, and the two stone lions in front of the door make people awe-inspired. The door is made of sandalwood, and it smells of sandalwood. The plaque on the forehead of the door has two big gilded characters - Duan family, from the outside of the door, it is enough to see the power of this family!!
After Duan Zixi entered the door, he said to a person who was sweeping the floor in this courtyard: "I'm back!!"
The man was stunned for a moment, then his face was full of smiles, and he happily pounced on Duan Zixi: "Miss, you're back!!, I miss Xue'er!!" Then he said to the people in the room, "Miss is back." โ
"Hehe, Xue'er, I've been here for a few months, are you and Shuang'er naughty again?" Duan Zixi asked with a smile.
"No, Miss hasn't been here for a few months, Frost and I are dying of boredom!!" instead, she saw us and said, "Who are these people?"
"Oh, this is my friend. Duan Zixi said: "This is my annoying brother - Lin Zifeng, this is Zhang Hang, at this time Li Youming - he is the general Li Youming who used fifteen people to repel the Nas Empire is 350,000 people! She introduced them one by one.
This Xue'er, who looks okay, is the identity of a servant, and it seems that she is a little lowly.
At this time, three people, three men and one woman, came out of the house.
"Xi'er, you're back, you've been crazy enough out there in the past few months? A man said. Listening to this tone, it should be his father, Duan Soul.
"Hehe, Dad, I came back this time to tell you something. Duan Zixi said. Then he introduced us a little bit and went back to the living room to talk about things.
