Qi Cultivation Chapter 138 Stewed falcon meat with mushrooms and bamboo shoots
In the early morning, the sun is bright and cloudless.
In this verdant bamboo forest, the bamboo leaves are condensed with dewdrops, and under the meager morning light, it seems as if they are about to drip.
Wang Ruoli was burning the fire with a leisurely face, holding a soup spoon, and boiling the meat in the pot.
A burst of tempting meat aroma spreads and lingers.
Ruan Jinglun, who had just woken up and yawned, smelled the smell of meat and couldn't help but come over: "Brother Li'er, what kind of meat is this? The meat tastes so good!"
"Falcons. Wang Ruoli replied with a smile, holding the seasoning in his hand, and carefully adding a few flavors.
"Where did you get the flying falcon?" Tuoba Yu'er, who was sitting on the ground with his back to the bamboo branch, showed a look of doubt on his face, "Don't say that it was encountered outside the forest, look at the size of the falcon meat you stewed, and the feathers plucked to the side, it should be a flying falcon used by the army to deliver news." ”
"Lord Yujun is really discerning, this falcon meat has been stewed by me, and it can even be seen that it is a military flying falcon. Wang Ruoli's face flashed with a little admiration, and he said briskly, "When I went out early in the morning, it was very unfortunate that I met two spies, and I don't know if they were the spies of the He family or the spies of the Han family. ”
"And then?" asked Tuoba Yu'er unconsciously.
"Originally, I just went out to collect firewood for the fire, but I didn't expect someone to be so enthusiastic that even fresh meat was delivered. Wang Ruoli said with great interest, and gestured with his hand, "What else can I do, I have to smile generously." After dealing with the two spies, they easily stabbed the flying falcon they wanted to release. So, there is the current pot of broth. ”
"You're really welcome. Tuoba Yu'er's eyes widened, and she looked at Wang Ruoli with some incredulity, and there seemed to be some kind of thought flashing in her heart.
"Thank you Lord Jade for your compliment!" Wang Ruoli replied calmly.
"Brother Li, although the meat is fragrant, it seems to be a little monotonous. Ruan Jinglun squatted beside him, looking at the boiling broth, licking his saliva.
"Jinglun, your words reminded me. When Wang Ruoli heard this, he rolled his eyes, thought about it and said, "Although it is close to winter, this bamboo forest is so big, maybe you can dig out a few bamboo shoots, and find some mushrooms to taste, so that it is a pot of mushroom and bamboo shoots stewed falcon meat." ”
Wang Ruoli said as he looked for bamboo shoots with great interest.
With Wang Ruoli's unremitting efforts, a large pot of mushroom and bamboo shoots stewed falcon meat was finally delicious.
In less than half a pillar of incense, this pot of falcon meat, along with the broth, was wiped out by Wang Ruoli and the others.
What Wang Ruoli didn't expect was that this stewed falcon meat with mushrooms and bamboo shoots was very delicious, and he couldn't help but complain slightly in his heart about the two spies, why did he only bring one flying falcon when he went out, why didn't he bring a few more!
After using up the broth and tidying up the bags, Wang Ruoli and the three of them left the bamboo forest and entered an official road.
On both sides of the official road, the forest is lush and green
Shade shelter.
"Brother, the distance to the Emerald City is less than ten miles away. Ruan Jinglun calculated the distance traveled, and unconsciously looked forward to it, "I don't know if I love my family too much, and I miss the time when I was at home at this time." ”
"Being in a foreign country, it's inevitable to feel homesick. Wang Ruoli listened to Ruan Jinglun's emotion and smiled, "When we arrive in the Emerald City, if we are lucky and meet the Chamber of Commerce, we will be able to return to Jingxiang Country in just a few months." ”
"I hope that the next moment, I can fly back to Jingxiang and run back to my hometown. Ruan Jinglun squinted his eyes, and smiled helplessly while looking forward to it, "It's just that when the time comes, my mother estimates that I will have to boil a few pots of perfect tonic soup one after another, and force me to drink them all." ”
"Haha...... What a deep mother's love......" Wang Ruoli teased Ruan Jinglun, looked at Tuoba Yu'er with a dignified face on the side, and subconsciously asked, "What about the Jade County Lord, what are your plans when you arrive in Emerald City?"
"There are still things to be done here, whether the result is exhausted, or there is another hidden secret, I want to explore again, if I can't untie this knot, I'm afraid that I will not be able to let go of this life, and I will never be able to walk out of the canyon of shadows. Tuoba Yu'er seemed to have something to hide in her heart, and she had slight doubts, and sighed.
When Wang Ruoli heard this, he shook his head slightly, not knowing how to persuade him.
At this moment, in the direction of the official road, a small group of officers and soldiers galloped quickly.
Wang Ruoli pulled the horse, pretended to be cowardly, and retreated to the side of the road, just as he wanted to make way for this group of officers and soldiers.
Suddenly, there was a sound behind him, and a slender figure jumped up, landed in the middle of the official road, and stopped in front of the officers and soldiers running horses, it was Tuoba Yu'er.
Wang Ruoli frowned, his heart was full of surprise, when did Tuoba Yu'er recover so well? Or has she always pretended to be weak?
"Who is here, who dares to stand in the way?" The leader of this group of officers and soldiers, a tooth lieutenant, stopped in the middle of the road at this time, and couldn't help but shout loudly.
"Which general do you belong to?" Tuoba Yu'er's face was calm, her voice was crisp, and she asked without answering.
Wang Ruoli looked at the clothing styles of these officers and soldiers, extremely unfamiliar, and at this time he heard Tuoba Yu'er's question, and finally understood that this was a team of officers and soldiers of the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty.
It's just that the officers and soldiers of the Qin Dynasty could appear at the boundary of Yuzhou?
Seeing that the person in the way looked calm and had a good aura, the officers and soldiers did not dare to be arrogant and presumptuous, but said cautiously: "We are General Wei Chi's subordinates. ”
"But the Songping General under the King of Yiqu, Lieutenant Chi Song?" Tuoba Yu'er heard this, her face turned slightly pale, and then asked.
"Exactly!" replied the officer and soldier, his face full of doubts, as if he was guessing Tuoba Yu'er's identity.
A small soldier next to him quietly took out a picture scroll, glanced at it a few times, and hurriedly handed it to the officer and soldier, and kept raising his eyebrows to remind him.
The officer and soldier took the picture scroll, looked at it carefully, and suddenly his face widened
changed, slid off the horse in a panic, knelt directly on the ground, and raised his voice to accuse: "I don't know, it turned out to be the county lord of Yu, there is a lot of offense, and I ask the county lord to forgive me!"
One by one, the rest of the soldiers dismounted, kneeling behind.
"Excuse me, get up!" Tuoba Yu'er was concerned and confused, and without thinking too much, she immediately asked, "What is the situation on the front line of the Three Dynasties now?"
"The county lord doesn't know that now the three immortal dynasties have called off the army and negotiated peace and signed an armistice agreement. The officer and soldier said in a loud voice, "My subordinates were ordered to search for the whereabouts of the county lord in this vicinity, but I didn't expect to really meet the county lord, I was really lucky." The subordinates then sent a signal to inform the general. ”
As he spoke, Captain Ya took out a signal flare from his bosom and was about to release it.
Suddenly, a long sword shot at a rapid pace, and under the surprise of the officer and soldier, he pierced his chest directly, and fell to the ground along with the signal flare in his hand.
The people in the field suddenly encountered an accident, and they all turned their heads to see, but it was Wang Ruoli in the rear, Fei Feng controlled the sword, and killed the officers and soldiers.
"Wang Ruoli, what are you going to do?" Tuoba Yu'er seemed to be angry when she saw this, but she stood aside and did not make a move.
Wang Ruoli's face was indifferent, unmoved, and once again attacked the officers and soldiers with his sword.
How dare the officers and soldiers slack off, one by one they hurriedly drew their knives in their hands and surrounded Wang Ruoli.
It's a pity that these officers and soldiers are just a group of cultivators in the Qi training period, and they are not Wang Ruoli's opponents at all.
Tuoba Yu'er looked at Wang Ruoli who was full of blood, and her expression was a little surprised.
"You're too cautious, aren't you?"
"Be careful, there's nothing wrong with that. Wang Ruoli said calmly, "A small group of officers and soldiers of the Qin Dynasty appeared in the territory controlled by the Chu Dynasty with great fanfare, suspicion one; such a lowly status and a humble officer and soldier tooth lieutenant, not to say that he is the king of Yiqu, I am afraid that he has not even seen the title of general, and his mouth is closed to the peace talks of the three dynasties, suspicion two; their accent is a typical southern accent, which is different from your northwest Qin Dynasty, suspicion three. No matter what point they are, they are not people who can be completely trusted, not to mention, if something happens, you will be safe and sound, but Jinglun and I still want to live!"
"It's me who owes it to consideration. Tuoba Yu'er rarely showed a look of apology, looked at Wang Ruoli, and said sincerely, "However, the boycott of the Three Dynasties and the negotiation and signing of the contract mentioned by this officer and soldier Captain Ya should not be made up. ”
"Why is the Jade County Lord so determined?" Wang Ruo's suspicions gradually grew, and he began to worry, thinking of the current situation, he didn't dare to delay any longer, "Since the Jade County Lord's body has gradually recovered, and we will reach the Jade City in another ten miles ahead, let's say goodbye." ”
"Okay!" a flash of hesitation flashed in Tuoba Yu'er's eyes, "Take care all the way!"
"There will be a period later!" Wang Ruoli took Ruan Jinglun and hurriedly walked to the side of the path.
