Sword Out of the Central Plains Chapter 259 Finalize Dinner
Bai Yutian bought a few jars of good wine on the road and loaded them on the donkey cart, returned to the inn, went to the inn counter and asked for paper, pen and ink, wrote a cure prescription and handed it to the uncle, and sent people out of the inn. When he saw that the sun was setting and twilight was not far away, he went back to the counter and called for dinner.
The shopkeeper was overjoyed, and hurriedly took the menu and recommended various dishes to Bai Yutian.
Bai Yutian pretended to be a foodie, accepted all the orders, and finally asked for a fish soup.
The shopkeeper apologized: "Guest officer, it's really unfortunate that the fish sent two days ago ran out." Today was supposed to be the date of delivery, but it has not been delivered at this point, so I am afraid that I can't count on it. Why don't you order another soup instead? ”
Bai Yutian smiled: "Okay." Then order the 'Four Spirits Soup'. ”
The shopkeeper smiled and asked, "Four Spirit Soup?" ”
Bai Yutian said jokingly: "Little second brother, I don't know about these four spirit soups, I seem to be ashamed of your mouth full of knowledge." ”
The shopkeeper asked, "I don't know what the four spirits are referring to?" ”
Bai Yutian replied with a smile: "The southeast and northwest are called the four directions, and there are four gods. The eastern cyan is wood, and its star is a dragon; The white of the west is gold, and its star is a white tiger; The red color of the south is fire, and its star is the vermilion bird; The black of the north is water, and its star is basalt. The essence of the four stars gave birth to four beasts, and the blood-containing insects were long with the four beasts. Yes, the four beasts are called the four elephants, and they are also called the four spirits of the sky. ”
The shopkeeper said: "The four beasts are called gods, how can they be used to make soup? ”
Bai Yutian replied with a smile: "Why not." Those rich and noble families often show off their noble status, and they say at every turn that they eat dragon liver and phoenix gall and drink agar and jade liquid. I just want to show off today, drink a bowl of Siling soup, why not? ”
The shopkeeper replied with a smile: "The guest officer wants to drink a bowl of Siling soup, so what's the matter?" However, the small shop revered the gods and did not dare to be disrespectful to them, and secondly, it operated on a small budget, and even if there were such ingredients, they could not afford it, and they did not dare to buy it, for fear that they would disappoint the guest officials. ”
Bai Yutian laughed and said, "Little second brother, I don't think you dare, you should have no intention of serving me." Thinking about the Qinglong Hall, the White Tiger Hall, the Xuanwu Soup, and the Vermilion Bird Hall, I heard that you are all related to them, and if you are willing to invite them and let me destroy them all with one sword, these four spirit soups will not be made. ”
The shopkeeper's face changed immediately, and he said: "Guest officer, in the world, hearing is false, and seeing is believing." You must not be so hearsay and gullible in believing the nonsense of others. What Qinglongtang and Baihutang, I am an errand boy in a shop, go there to know this. You said no? ”
Bai Yutian said with a smile: "Also, it seems that this four spirit soup can't be counted on today." ”
The shopkeeper said politely: "Thank you for your understanding, the small shop is really limited." ”
Bai Yutian said: "Little second brother, what is there to thank for this, just give me the menu that has just been written." ”
The shopkeeper handed the menu to Bai Yutian, but he didn't expect Bai Yutian to tear it up without even looking at it, he was very puzzled, and asked in a good voice: "Guest officer, why are you here?" ”
Bai Yutian snorted and said without a good face: "I won't tell you, I'm a person, as long as I have good food and drink, I can ignore anything." But I also pay special attention to it, and I never follow my own mind, and I don't like others to go against my will. But for the dinner I just ordered, I didn't want to drink fish soup, I didn't want to drink Siling soup, my mind was damaged, and I couldn't keep this menu. ”
The shopkeeper said happily: "Okay, you say, I remember, I will do it again." ”
Bai Yutian said: "Forget it, I'll figure out how to do it myself for dinner." ”
The shopkeeper said quickly: "What about the others? ”
Bai Yutian said: "Today I sit big, and others are according to my taste. He turned and strode away.
The shopkeeper chased after him, and said in a good voice: "Guest officer, you stay in my store and don't dine in my store, if it is spread by people with ulterior motives, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do business in my small shop in the future, you have to understand." ”
Bai Yutian smiled, put his arm on the shoulder of the shopkeeper, and whispered in his ear: "You go back and tell Zhao Mingxiu that the poison of dispersion is not something that everyone can afford to use, so it's better to use less." lest you use too much, and after you die, you will be sent to the eighteenth layer of hell by the good thoughts of the Buddhists, and you will not be able to live forever. ”
The shopkeeper trembled slightly, and pretended to be calm and said, "Zhao Mingxiu, who is he?" What to do with Huagongsan? ”
Bai Yutian replied with a smile: "You and I know it well, why bother to find out!" You said no? He patted the shoulder of the shopkeeper, took a big stride, and walked straight towards the cave where Fan Zhong was flooded, and the two footprints were one inch into the ground, and they were all in line.
When the shopkeeper saw it, the killing intent in his heart was exposed, like two flames, but he didn't ignite Bai Yutian's back.
Bai Yutian entered the cave where Fan Zhong was flooded, and saw that the people of Wushan Dao, Chen Xiwen, the four brothers, Wu San and others were all there, so he told him what had just happened.
Wushan Dao people felt that Bai Yutian had some words as if they were too early, and they were not very satisfied, so they couldn't help but say: "Boy, I usually see that you are quite stable, why are you so frizzy today, are those few words what you should say now?" It's a good enemy in the light and I'm in the dark, don't be stupid, you're not stupid! ”
Bai Yutian smiled and said: "Dao Chief, everything has been said, no matter how much you care, it will not help. It's better to give Zhao Mingxiu a dismount. ”
Wushan Daoren said: "Zhao Mingxiu finally chose this good place, thinking that we should relax our vigilance and let him show his strengths." It's good for you to break the word, won't it make him sad and embarrassed. What if he is too sad and doesn't show up, you can't chase him to Biluo Lake and ask him for forgiveness, right? ”
Bai Yutian replied with a smile: "That's not true. Li Yuanhao of Western Xia has fierce generals and thousands of warriors, and if Zhao Mingxiu wants to be popular with him, it is not enough to rely on the name of a martial saint, only to pull the White Lotus Sect into the water and firmly control it in the palm of his hand, as the capital that he can speak loudly in the Western Xia regime in the future. I dare to guarantee the ticket, Zhao Mingxiu not only can't sleep well tonight, but he will get up early tomorrow morning, wait at the foot of the Meridian Ridge early, wait for us to meet him, help him make some suggestions, what should he do in the future. ”
Fan Zhongyan interjected with a smile: "There is no suggestion, the road can be pointed to." ”
Chen Xiwen asked, "My lord, what road do you mean?" ”
Fan Zhongyan said to Bai Yutian: "Boy, what do you think is the best way to point out?" ”
Bai Yutian replied: "My lord, if I were you, I would give him one each of the bright and dark roads." ”
Fan Zhongyan said: "Oh! Let's talk about it. ”
Bai Yutian replied with a smile: "If he is not willing to die for the sake of betraying the country for glory, then guide him to a clear path, let him pay homage to the Buddha, and never take half a step out of compassion for the rest of his life." On the contrary, if he insists on dying for the sake of betraying the country for glory, he will guide him to a dark path and let him go to Hades. ”
Fan Zhongyan said happily: "Okay, that's it." obsessed with epiphany, take the bright road; Obsessed and unscathed, take the dark road. ”
When Chen Xi heard that the four brothers had heard it, he couldn't help but feel relieved. thought to himself, no matter which path he Zhao Mingxiu took, it was impossible for him to be evil again. Although he can't vent his evil anger and slash enemies for decades of hiding in the west, he will have no enemies of life and death from now on, and he can more or less get some peace, and he can still be happy about it.
