I have to say that Li Ling's archery skills, under the tutelage of his grandfather Li Guang, have surpassed most adults.

At the beginning of the game, he was far ahead of Huo Guang.

"This is the ninth!" Li Ling looked at Huo Guang, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his arrogant expression was already overflowing.

He fired ten arrows in a row, and all of them hit the chickens in captivity.

Time.

In General Cheng's mansion, chickens and dogs jumped up.

On the other hand, on Huo Guang's side, even though his talent is good, after all, the practice time is short, not only is the hit rate not as good as Li Ling's, but even the speed is much slower than him.

What to do?

How to defeat a person who is more talented than you and usually practices harder than you?

Yes, of course... Hit him up with a chicken.

Sick is not!

If it is said that it is a disaster to the east, then it is a disaster to the east, who is in the mood to compete with these unlucky children in archery.

Huo Guang directly bent his bow and arrow, aimed the arrow at the barking thin dog in the yard, and shot an arrow and hit its ass.

Suddenly.

The dog's barking became terrible.

And Li Ling on the side didn't know why, and even sneered: "Huo Guang, I thought you had a lot of ability, the arrow shot so biased, and you dare to be so arrogant!" ”

"I advise you, it's better to admit defeat directly!"

"It's a waste of my time."

Regarding Li Ling's ridicule, Huo Guang didn't care.

Turning his head, he looked at Li Ling.

just smiled contemptuously and said, "What nonsense, continue to compare." ”

"I really don't think there's any need for comparison." Li Ling proudly picked up his bow and arrows, ready to aim at his tenth target.

Draw, charge, aim, and shoot!

Coherent.

The arrows burst through the air and shot straight at the birds in the yard. If there is no accident, this arrow will surely be shot.

However.

There was a thud of metal, and the arrow was volleyed away.

"Where did the doll come from, she actually ran to the old man's mansion to spread wild, how did the family raise it!" I saw the old man scolding with a fierce face.

Immediately.

The young men from the Wei family and the Li family watching the competition on the wall were so frightened that they hurriedly fled.

"Run, it's General Cheng!"

Wei Yan recognized the old man with a knife and arrows at a glance, and immediately dragged his two younger brothers to jump off the wall and ran away.

On the other side, the children of the Li family were the same, jumping down and running away.

Originally.

Huo Guang is also going to run away, because his goal has been achieved.

But after thinking about it.

He climbed up to the wall again, and watched General Cheng Lao chase him out with people, so he did the opposite. Not only did he jump into the yard openly, but he also carried out two of the chickens that had been shot.

"Such a good ingredient can't be wasted."

Although Huo Guang now lives in the General's Mansion, he eats a lot of food. But to be honest, the "food" in the Western Han Dynasty was really unpalatable to Huo Guang, who was a man of two lifetimes.

Health is indeed health, after all, there is no technology and hard work.

But on the palate, it's really not good.

As far as Huo Guang knew, the first delicacy in the minds of the people of the Han Dynasty was barbecue, which was their big meal.

But the problem is.

The barbecue doesn't even have cumin, so it's also called barbecue?

At best, it's a filling!

Even in rich and powerful families, when it comes to eating barbecue, the most they can do is dip it in sauce and vinegar.

This!

It can be confirmed in the "Qu Li", there is a record of the sentence "All the rites of eating, outside the beginning of the sea, and inside the sauce".

What does that mean?

In other words, foods like barbecue type must be dipped in vinegar and sauce to be delicious.

Thinking of this, Huo Guang was a little hungry.

After slaughtering and washing the chickens with hands and feet, I went to the lotus pond to pick a few clean and complete lotus leaves, and prepared to make two flower chickens to eat.

As for why you chose to call it flower chicken?

Because it's simple!

Just kill the chicken and remove the internal organs, coat the yellow mud and firewood with the hair, put the coated chicken in the fire and simmer, wait for the mud to dry the chicken and cook, peel off the mud shell, and the chicken feathers will also be taken off with the mud shell, revealing the simmered chicken.

This is the most primitive method.

However, in order to have a fragrance to eat, Huo Guang deliberately wrapped a layer of lotus leaves.

Ignition, barbecue!

When it is cooked, crack open the mud shell, and the taste of the chicken is called fragrant.

But wait until you eat it.

But it doesn't feel right, it seems that something is missing?

"It's salt!" Huo Guang frowned slightly, and sighed: "Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar tea, if there is no salt, the taste is really a lot worse." ”

Simply.

The remaining one is called the flower chicken, which was not knocked open, but was "packed" and brought back to the General's Mansion, and it was given to the champion brother to try it when the time came.

However.

When he returned to the General's Mansion, he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart.

General Cheng, who is strict with himself, is in the general's mansion at the moment, grabbing Wei Yan and loudly reprimanding him for what he has committed.

And Wei Qing, who is a general, can only apologize to Cheng Buzhi.

However, her aunt Shen Youjia, who was standing on the side, was a little unhappy when she saw her husband groveling like this.

Huo Guang glanced at it from a distance, and he didn't dare to enter through the main entrance.

This journey I don't know the old general must have come for the sake of the poultry that were shot, and he carried the flower chicken in at this time, which was undoubtedly hitting the muzzle of the gun!

So you can only take a detour and enter through the back door.

Since the back door was facing the kitchen, after Huo Guang came in, he happened to get some sauce in the kitchen. In the Han Dynasty during this period, there were still many types of sauce, including soybean paste, meat sauce, mulberry jam, wolf sauce and so on.

Although it is not as delicious as the condiments of later generations, it can be eaten anyway.

After Huo Guang took the sauce, he was ready to go to the champion brother.

But when he passed through the hall, he saw that Wei Qing had invited the old general Cheng Buzhi to come in and sit down, so he immediately ran into a room in a panic and hid.

"It's dangerous, it's dangerous!" Huo Guang patted his chest, he did something bad, and he was a little flustered.

At this time.

A middle-aged man's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"What's so dangerous?"

Suddenly hearing this, Huo Guang was suddenly startled, he didn't expect that there were actually people in this room.

Before.

The room was unoccupied, and no one was allowed to enter. This was an order personally issued by the general Wei Qing, and even his three naughty children did not dare to have any disobedience.

It didn't work out.

It turned out that there was a strange man living here.

Huo Guang turned around, wanting to see the man's face clearly, but he found that a sharp long sword was already on his shoulder.

"Don't move!" The man said in a deep voice: "What did you just say is so dangerous, and besides, I haven't seen you before, which little thief dares to run into the general's mansion?" ”

"You little thief, take the sword away from me!" Huo Guang glared at the strange man in front of him, the expression on his face was not afraid at all, and continued: "It should be me asking who you are, right?" I've been living in this shogunate for almost a month, so why haven't I seen you! ”

When the man saw that Huo Guang was not afraid of him, not only was he not angry, but he seemed to feel a little interesting, and immediately said: "The sword is all on the neck, and you are not afraid?" Boy, a little guts! ”

Huo Guang snorted and said with a smile: "I'm not even afraid of my brother, will I be afraid of you, a ranger who cheats on food and drink in the General's Mansion?" ”

Ranger?

Well!

It's a group of people who don't do their jobs but have money from unknown sources to spend.

They have a similar meaning to the street slickers of later generations, and compared with the street slickers, they are nothing more than having the background of the scholar clan and having a little more effort.

In Chang'an City during the Western Han Dynasty, there were many rangers.

People like Guo Jie, Wan Zhang, Lou Hu, etc., can all be classified as rangers.

The middle-aged man holding the sword was said by Huo Guang to be a ranger, but he didn't care, and seemed to have acquiesced to this identity.

Just gently stirred up the long sword in his hand and said with a smile: "You're not even afraid of your brother?" Hmph, why do you look so glorious! Okay, listen to the meaning, your brother should also be a character in Chang'an City, tell me, who is it? ”

When Huo Guang heard this, his heart was happy.

Thinking that I would wait for the name of my champion brother to be announced, wouldn't I want to scare him?

But on second thought!

I also feel that if I say it directly, it will seem very uncompelling.

So!

Huo Guang pretended to be profound, and said: "My surname is Huo, you say, in Chang'an City, who else can my brother be?" ”

"Surname Huo?" The middle-aged man thought of someone at once, but narrowed his eyes slightly.

After all!

He had never heard of the man surnamed Huo, and there was a brother here.

So, the middle-aged man asked with some uncertainty: "What you said, could it be the hussar general Huo Quai?" ”

"yes!" Huo Guang saw that the ranger knew his brother's name, and immediately showed a slight smile and sneered: "Are you afraid?" ”

After hearing this, the middle-aged man laughed loudly, not only did he not look a little afraid, but even asked, "Will I be afraid?" What a joke! ”

"In this world, no one can make me feel scared!"

"Do you know who I am?"
