The sky was white, Bai Yuxiao and Meng Yu got some dry food and two horses at the inn, and galloped east. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The scorching sun was in the sky, and the two of them felt hot and panicked after riding for a long time, just in time for a tea shed on the side of the road, so they stopped to rest for a while.

The tea shop was deserted, and there was no one to sit at a few tables.

Bai Yuxiao and Meng Yu found a place to sit down, and asked the old man in the tea shed for a few bowls of mung bean soup to relieve the heat.

Mung bean soup is cool and delicious, sweet and moisturizing to the tongue and spleen. Meng Yu, who had been scorched by the scorching sun for a long time, exclaimed happily after drinking a few bowls.

"There is such a cold bean soup to drink on this hot day, which is better than fairy syrup qiongjiu. ”

I couldn't help but ask the old man at the tea shop: "Old man, in this July flying fire, where did you get ice cubes to chill this mung bean soup?"

The old man at the tea shop smiled: "This mung bean soup is cool and delicious, but it is not chilled with ice cubes. ”

Meng Yu and Bai Yuxiao were surprised, Meng Yu smiled and said: "No ice, why is this mung bean soup so cold? ”

The old man laughed and said, "Although the surface is dry and hot at this time, the water under the ground is as warm as spring snow meltwater. I soaked the boiled mung bean soup in the cold well water, and you drank this cold mung bean soup. ”

Meng Yu and Bai Yuxiao woke up and couldn't help but drink a few more bowls.

"How far is it for the old man to go to Longxing Mansion from now on?"

"If you are in a hurry at night, you can arrive tomorrow morning, but the Mongols are attacking Longxing Province, do you two plan to go there?"

"That's right. ”

The old man of the tea shop hurriedly said: "Then don't go again, all Han people within ten miles of Longxing Mansion, if they are bumped into by the Mongols, regardless of men, women and children, they will be arrested and beheaded." ”

Bai Yuxiao said: "Why?" He knew that the Mongols were cruel, but he didn't think to kill anyone when he saw it.

"The city of Longxingfu was strong, and the Mongols could not attack it for a long time, and suffered heavy losses. When the Mongols learned that there was no food or grass in the city, they turned to attack and defended, surrounded the city, and tried to starve the defenders of the city to death. However, many righteous soldiers and people outside the city took advantage of the darkness of the night to break through the encirclement of the Yuan army and send food to the defenders of the city. The Mongols were very angry, so they sent rangers within ten miles of the city to kill the Han people who approached Longxingfu. ”

Bai Yuxiao and Meng Yu nodded.

"I see. ”

Meng Yu said happily: "Isn't the Longxing Mansion still in the hands of the Song Army?"

"Yes, but I wonder if we can hold it until tomorrow night?"

Meng Yu's face turned gray again.

Bai Yuxiao comforted: "At least the city has not been captured, so there is hope to defend it." That's what you thought last night, didn't you?"

Meng Yu showed a hint of a smile, but still looked sad.

"Having said that, the defenders in the city have not eaten or drunk, how can they hold on?"

Just when the two of them were worried, they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves on the eastern road.

Bai Yuxiao and Meng Yu looked up, and saw dozens of soldiers wearing armor, hanging scimitars from their waists, and carrying bows and crossbows galloping on horseback.

"It's Yuan Bing. "Bai Yuxiao looked at the armor and knew that it was a Mongolian cavalry.

Meng Yu nodded in agreement.

The dozens of Yuan soldiers galloped on horseback on the road, stepping on the dust. When passing by the tea shop, a Mongolian cavalry led by a long cry and pulled the reins, and the horse under the seat stopped moving, and dozens of Mongolian soldiers behind him also followed the horse to stop.

Meng Yu praised after seeing it: "The Mongols are really good at riding and shooting. ”

Bai Yuxiao also nodded in agreement.

Listening to the Mongolian soldier in Mongolian, he dismounted and landed, and the others dismounted and dragged the horse to the side of the road and put it on a tree.

The dozens of soldiers tied up their horses, swaggered into the tea shop, filled the remaining tables, and the originally empty tea shop was suddenly crowded.

Suddenly walked into so many soldiers, which frightened the old man of the tea shop, only to see the old man of the tea shop said: "What do the military masters want to eat?"

"All the delicious food and drink are brought to the masters. ”

The speech was very lame, but the old man at the tea shop still understood.

The old man at the tea shop answered, and went to bring mung bean soup and steaming steamed buns.

Looking at the mung bean soup and steamed buns on the table, the leader of the Yuan soldiers slapped the table and said angrily: "You are so bold, you dare to serve the gentlemen with thin soup dumplings." ”

The old man of the tea shop saw that the head of the Yuan soldiers was angry, trembling all over, and said hurriedly: "The military master is angry, the small shop is a small business, only sells tea porridge, and there is really no wine and meat to serve the masters." ”

When the leader of the Yuan soldiers heard this, he pulled out his waist knife and put it on the old man's head, so frightened that the old man knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

After dozens of Yuan soldiers saw it, they raised their heads and laughed.

"You shop, really no wine or meat?"

"Not really. ”

Seeing that the old man didn't seem to be lying, the leader of the soldiers ordered, "Look for it." ”

Then a soldier ran to the kitchen to check, and after a while, he reported back: "General, there is indeed no wine or meat." ”

The leader of the Yuan soldiers pulled the knife back into the sheath, picked up a bun and broke it, and when he saw that it was vegetable filling, he frowned and snorted coldly: "No wonder you Han people are so vulnerable, so you eat this meatless dry food." ”

Suddenly, Yuan Bing said happily: "General, there are two horses outside the shed, and they are just slaughtered and eaten." ”

When the leader of the Yuan soldiers looked at it, he saw two horses tied to the wooden stakes outside the shop, and laughed: "Old man, go and slaughter those two horses and cook them for us." ”

The old man answered, got up and went to the kitchen stove to get a kitchen knife, and wanted to slaughter the horse.

Those two horses are Bai Yuxiao and Meng Yu's horses, Bai Yuxiao and Meng Yu, who were sitting on the side at this time, were shocked when they heard it, if there were no horses, how could they get to Longxing Mansion.

Meng Yu got up and said with a smile: "Master Jun, that's my two's horse." ”

The leader of the Yuan soldiers sneered: "How can it be your horse? This world is about to be the world of the Great Yuan Emperor, and this is naturally the Great Yuan Emperor's horse, where did you come from this beggar horse?"

Meng Yu was furious, and he was about to shoot at the leader of the Yuan soldiers.

Suddenly, they heard a neighing of horses outside the shop, and everyone turned their heads to look, only to see that the old man in the tea shop had killed a horse to the ground.

Meng Yu frowned, thought about it and said with a smile: "In this case, I am also very hungry beggars, and I don't know if I can get a piece of the horse meat after it is cooked." ”

When those soldiers heard this, they laughed.

"Okay, go and help the old man clean up, and we'll reward you for eating horse offal." ”

Meng Yu nodded and smiled, then glanced at Bai Yuxiao, Bai Yuxiao understood, and walked out of the shop with Meng Yu.

At this time, the old man was dragging the horse's corpse into the kitchen stove, and when he saw Meng Yu and Bai Yuxiao coming, he sighed: "I'm sorry, the old man really had to kill the two horses." ”

Meng Yu smiled: "It's okay, let's help you clean up." ”

Meng Yu and Bai Yuxiao worked together to carry the dead horse weighing hundreds of catties to the kitchen stove.

"Old man, you go boil water, and we'll clean it up soon. ”

The old man sighed and handed the knife to Meng Yu. After the old man left, Meng Yu took the knife and waved it on the horse, although it was messy and disorderly, but Bai Yuxiao, who was watching from the side, saw that he was using the three styles of solving pigs.
