Chapter 671: Pointing the way
The three of them looked at the bones at Ji Yuan's feet, this belly is a bit exaggerated, this wild boar is not a small wild boar, there are at least dozens of catties of meat after removing the bones, even if you take into account the shrinkage after roasting, it is still a lot, and the three of them together have eaten less than ten catties at most.
The three of them looked at Ji Yuan's not obvious belly, and they felt even more ridiculous, but the man who was close to Ji Yuan still hurriedly said.
"Uh-he-he, it's good that Mr. can eat it, anyway, the meat is going to be eaten when it's cooked. ”
The man who was in charge of the barbecue, who was obviously the leader, pointed directly to the wild boar on the grill before the young man next to him spoke.
"Yes, yes, if you can eat it, you can eat it! ”
On the grill with the wild boar tied, there is also a pig's head and a front leg, as well as a spine connected with a little meat, although Ji Yuan can still eat it, but when such a large half of the wild boar comes down, even he can be considered happy, and shook his head with a smile.
"Ji has eaten very happily, I haven't eaten like this for a long time, thank you three for your hospitality!"
Between the laughter, Ji Yuan shook his hand, and all the grease on his hands was thrown to the ground, and there was not the slightest stain of oil on the nails on his hands, and then he reached into his sleeve and took out two pieces of broken silver.
"I don't know how to sell this cooked wild boar. ”
Ji Yuan could see that the three of them were originally going to roast the pork and carry it conveniently, if he just ate some as a meal, others would definitely not have any opinions, but he didn't keep his mouth on a whim and almost ate a fine meal, so Ji Yuan was a little overset.
However, as soon as he saw Ji Yuan take out the silver, the two older men on the opposite side immediately shook their heads and waved their hands.
"No, no, no, you can't make it, Mr. is a pedantic man, a lesson is enough to be worth a wild boar, this kind of livestock can be caught again, Mr. Jin Yan may not be heard everywhere!"
"Yes, Mr. Ji, it's just a little pork, I'm still suffering from not being entertained, I knew that I could meet Mr. today, and I wouldn't drink all the wine yesterday!
Hearing that the other party refused to accept the money, and only hated no wine, Ji Yuan couldn't help it, and immediately stood up and said.
"A few people don't mention Ji Mou and forget, in fact, Ji Mou still has some bags in the back forest, but the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, so he didn't bring it, and I hope the three of them don't blame the vague words at the beginning, I still have some good wine in my bag, the three of them wait for a while, Ji Mou went to get the wine and came back!"
The man in the middle didn't hesitate at all, and stood up directly and gave it up.
"Sir, just go, if the wine is heavy, can you follow me and help me carry it?"
"No, no, just trust Ji, I'll go back!"
After that, Ji Yuan turned around and left in the direction of the forest.
Seeing Ji Yuan disappear at the mouth of the woods, the young man who had been holding back his words finally couldn't help it.
"Two brothers, this Mr. Ji is too good to eat, this wild boar we originally planned to prepare food for ten days, he will eat almost enough for this meal, he wants to give money, why don't you take it, the broken silver just now, it has to be half a tael, right?"
The two looked in the direction of the woods, then looked at the young man together, and the man who was barbeking smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"Xiao Qi, can ordinary people eat so much meat?"
The young man quickly shook his head.
"How is that possible!"
"Then let me ask you again, when Mr. Ji talked about Yin Gong just now, what did Yin Gong represent?"
The young man frowned, slightly puzzled.
"Wenqu Xing, what's wrong? He still pointed to the stars to show us, is there any problem?"
The other man couldn't help but laugh.
"Xiao Qi, how did Mr. Ji point it out to us, I forgot, can you help my brother recall it?"
"Forget it so quickly, isn't it just ......"
The young man looked up and pointed into the air, but his movements immediately stopped, his eyes widened and his mouth opened slightly, and his fingers did not know where to point.
"What about the stars......"
"Hey, Xiao Qi, how can you see the stars on a sunny day?"
"But just now, Mr. Ji ...... him"
At this point, the young man had already come back to his senses, and looked at the two brothers with exaggerated expressions, and the barbecue man nodded and patted the young man's shoulder again.
"Xiao Qi, you, in the end, you are still a little tender, this Mr. Ji is very knowledgeable and elegant, and he is by no means an ordinary man, for the sake of good fortune and misfortune, how can you snub him?"
The three of them waited for a long time, and Ji Yuan had already returned, with a smile on his face, and a few more emerald green bamboo tubes with ropes in his hands, which seemed to be the so-called wine jugs.
"Come on, come on, you invite Ji to eat meat, and Ji will invite you to drink?"
"It's really wine, that's great!" "Hahaha, sir, take a seat, this pig's head meat is the best place to drink!"
The enthusiasm of the three of them was undiminished, and they came over to help Ji Yuan carry wine, and beckoned him to sit down.
Ji Yuan handed the bamboo tube in his hand to the three people, exactly one for each of the four, and then the first one pulled the stopper, and suddenly a smell of wine wafted out.
"This wine is called Dajiao wine, produced in Tianbao country, the wine is strong and mellow, it is very rare, it is absolutely difficult to drink in this place, as the so-called rare is expensive, Ji Mou should be all worth the meat hahaha. ”
"What Mr. said is very true, in this situation, a pound of wine is worth one or two gold!"
The three of them took the wine and uncorked it one after another, only to feel that the aroma of the wine was mixed with the fragrance of bamboo, and the smell was very attractive, and they looked at the bamboo as if it was freshly chopped.
"Ji Mou drink first as a respect!"
Ji Yuan couldn't help but be addicted to alcohol for a long time, and before entering the forest, he took out a thousand bucket pot and drank several sips, which would also take a bamboo tube to his mouth and drink, and the other three looked at each other, and in the case of rapid saliva secretion, they also took a sip of the bamboo tube, and suddenly the liquor was filled with a mouth, which was both stimulating and comfortable, and he was sweating all over his stomach after a sip of wine.
"Good wine!" "What wine!"
"It's delicious, it's delicious!"
These words were sincere, and Ji Yuan was happier when he heard it, and his slightly tense nerves during this period of time couldn't help but relax even more.
"If you like it, hehe. ”
The rest of the pork, the three of them just cut it little by little with a knife, and sent it into the stomach with spirits, which is a rare enjoyment.
Wine helps the fun and courage, and gradually the three of them are more open, and when Ji Yuan is about to drink the wine in the bamboo tube, the eldest man, who has drunk less than a third, still picks up the gap just after the previous topic and asks.
"Mr. Ji, you know a lot and have a lot of knowledge, can you give us three points of guidance?"
Ji Yuan took a sip of wine and didn't speak immediately, and the man hurriedly added.
"Listening to what Mr. said today, we know that the great changes in my ancestor Yue Kingdom are imminent, and we are just mediocre hunters, and we don't have any big wishes, just to live a stable life with enough food, clothing, and warmth. ”
Ji Yuan swallowed the wine in his mouth and smiled.
"That's simple, give up the idea of going to the Zuyue military village to join the army, just go home and live a good life, with the ability of the three, no matter how bad it is, it won't starve to death. ”
"This ......"
The three of them looked at each other, all a little embarrassed.
"Sir, I didn't mean to hide it from you, but in fact, after listening to what you said before, it was even more difficult to speak......
"Yes, and there is no need for Mr. to say, no matter how good the Nanying is, I will not join the army again!"
After chatting for so long, he almost ate up a wild boar, how could Ji Yuan still not see what the three of them originally wanted to do, the wine in his bamboo tube was dry, Ji Yuan also patted his ass and stood up, and slightly arched his hand to the three of them in his face.
"Eat heartily, drink happily, drink and eat, Ji should also say goodbye, oh yes, if you want to cross the mountain in the southwest direction, don't take the canyon path, this demon place;
"Uh, sir, you're leaving......"
"Sir, wait a minute, sir!"
Two of the three stood up, and the man in the middle took out an oil-paper bag from the bag behind him, shook the dry food out of the bag, and then took a knife to quickly cut the meat of the remaining half of the boar's head, put the meat in the oil-paper bag, and then stood up in front of Ji Yuan.
"I know that Mr. is an extraordinary person, I don't have anything valuable, a little care, take it!"
Seeing the oil-paper bag handed by the man with both hands, Ji Yuan hesitated slightly, but still took it, thought about it, stretched out his left hand into the sleeve of his right hand, and found three verdant fruits.
"I almost forgot, I waited for so much meat to eat, I was getting tired of panicking, this date is sweet and delicious, the most greasy, one for each person. ”
Stuffing the dates to the three of them, Ji Yuan carried the oil paper bag and left in the northeast direction away from the river bank, and when Ji Yuan had already walked away and couldn't see it, the man who gave the meat suddenly slapped his thigh.
"Oh, we're so confused, we haven't even reported our names, no wonder Mr. doesn't want to see us!"
"Oh, oh! I just listened to my husband talk about the world, and I forgot about it!"
Seeing that the two brothers were remorseful, the young man hurriedly said.
"Then go after it now?"
"Hey, forget it, I guess I can't catch up. ”
The man took a bite of the fruit in his hand in remorse, and suddenly the fragrance overflowed his lips and teeth, and even the drunkenness of drinking too much wine before was dispelled by this sweetness......
At this time, Ji Yuan had already gone away, even if the three of them really chased him, he would definitely not be able to catch up, he was carrying the oil-paper bag that still had residual heat in his hand, and after weighing it, he smiled and put it in his sleeve.
This meal by the wilderness river, not only to eat and drink heartily, but also to understand the mentality of some people in Zuyue, this is one of the things he wants to know in Zuyue country, compared to the Jingshi court of Zuyue country and those so-called immortal masters who are now on the boat of Zuyue country, Ji Yuan is also more concerned about folk affairs.
